on ne sera pas tous millionnaires mais chacun espère au fond de lui qu’il le sera et fais tout pour essayer de le devenir et nous baissions les bras et perdons espoir que quand on est près de la mort. pourquoi ne pas aborder l’amour aussi de cette façon
it will and i think that's what makes us cry, that despite everything that hurts you can suddenly realize you don't have to suffer and that it will get better and you feel releived and silly for all that useless pain and grateful for daniel for reminding you of such simple things!
I know I'm not exactly qualified to say so, but I think you're wrong. I believe that love is inescapable really, it's part of being human. It doesn't have to be romantic or platonic or even familial. It is universal.
He absolutely nailed the lyrics on this one. Such a simple song but he worded a message so perfect that anyone struggling to find love can listen to this song and find hope. Cause this is exactly how it’s done.
I have never cried at a piece of media until i heard this song. I've seen so many movies and felt bad for characters, but never actually broke a tear. But learning about how awful johnston's early life was and then hearing this is totally different. It's so clumsy and awkward, but its such genuine optimism from someone who was dealt such an awful hand in life. I can hear him wanting to convey this message by any means he can, even if he's not equipped with all the conventional knowledge of writing music. He just wants to share his hope that bad. And the fact its so flawed makes it feel so much more human. Its so beautiful and heart breaking at the same time. May Daniel rest well, cause i consider him a legend.
I feel you, you've expressed all of that really well, putting into words exactly how I feel about him too...the most broken bruised hearts often are the most beautiful
There’s something very endearing about the lack of perfectionism he has in his music, he just plays his songs because he absolutely loves doing it. He doesn’t care if it sounds kinda sloppy, or if his instruments aren’t tuned right. It’s like he becomes completely apart of whatever he’s playing, and all of his imperfections let his soul and emotions shine straight through the music, like sunlight shining through a dirty, broken window, but the window’s physical state represents decades of experience and circumstance, making it a beautiful symbol as well. Rest In Peace, Daniel, you were a very special person.
This kind of music(Sincere and Honest) is ALL gone i think. Honesty doesn't make Money-Directed culture. And we really need a culture of Sincerity and Honesty right now,, More than EVER. That's why "they" will NEVER produce such stuff. Cheers from Sweden
The first time I played a song in front of others was during my sophomore year of high school in a German class talent show. I sang this song with a shitty ukulele. It was a fairly awkward stage of my life and I was really nervous going into it. To my surprise everyone seemed to like it and I left feeling I had done the song justice. From then on I've been much more comfortable playing for others, even though it's rare for me to do so. Rest in peace Daniel, and thank you for what you have given
Best show I've seen in NYC, maybe 2007. At a point in the show, Daniel Johnston sat down on the stage and got quiet. He stopped stopped singing. We all had heard about this kind of thing in his performances when he stopped, the show was cut short, and it was over. Everyone looked around at each other, wondering what they were supposed to do now. A few people sat down, and then little by little, we all did. We were on the same level as him. Waiting. After 5-10 mins or so, he started singing again. It was the most connected experience I've had at a concert. I will remember it forever. It's hard to put into words but it was so humble and sweet.
I was watching a interview with Daniel, and I literally thought that him and Sosa are such similar artists sonically. Awesome to see someone who understood this. This literally all happened in about 10 minutes. Someone make sosa sample some Dan
today I heard my son playing this on his computer, I asked who it was, he explained about Daniel, and how he suffered...gone too soon, I cried for him, as he spoke for all who have suffered...REST In Peace dear one.
I wrote a portion of my university dissertation about Daniel and his influence on the Austin indie music scene when he first moved there and started performing. There was a beautiful section in a book I read, "Hi, How Are You?", which talks about how at the time, a lot of indie music was very ironic, very sardonic, and very subtextual. But when Daniel first stepped up in an Austin club and played his honest, sincere songs, the crowd was absolutely captivated. He was the first one to sing honestly and genuinely, with no facade of coolness or fake intellectualism. He was just a pure, beautiful soul, singing his heart out. RIP Daniel, and thank you.
PURE the very word I was thinking... and REAL. I listen to this tune every so often to set myself straight. It's true- you know- true love will find you in the end! ♡
True love will find you in the end You'll find out just who's your friend Don't be sad I know you will But don't give up until True love will find you in the end This is a promise with a catch Only if you're looking can it find you Because true love is searching too But how can it recognise you unless you step out into the light the light Don't be sad I know you will But don't give up until True love will find you in the end♥️
This is my favorite song in the world. I didn't live a good live, obviously nothing compared to his live, most of my suffering is due to my own bad decisions. But this 2 minute long song makes me wanna live until true love does find me, i don't know if ever will and, if it does, i don't know if will be enough, but for 2 minutes none of us was alone. We all felt the honesty in those words. I remember the day i found this song, i had never cried because of music before, but, once i saw the title and his face, i just started crying and i knew that it would be with me throughout all the bad times. This is my very first youtube comment, nothing ever felt worth sharing and inglish is not even my first language, so i apolage for all the grammatical mistakes. If you read this until the end i hope true love does find you.
"This is a promise with a catch // only if you're looking can it find you // cause true love is looking too // but how can it recognize you // unless you step out into the light the light" Holy cow.
I always thought this song was about romantic love. But now that I came to hear it right after Daniel's death, I think maybe he refers to the true love we all find when we finish our journey on this planet. The light...
For god so loved the world, he let 10000 children starve to death today.. fuck Christ's love. Christianity was taken from an older religion and has changed so much over the years... Delusional....
True love will find you in the end You'll find out just who was your friend Don't be sad, I know you will, But dont give up until True love will find you in the end This is a promise with a catch Only if you're looking can it find you 'Cause true love is searching too But how can it recognize you Unless you step out into the light? Don't be sad i know you will But don't give up until True love will find you in the end.
"How can it recognize you...unless you step out into the light, the light?" (I love the way he says "the light" twice) This song makes me hopeful since he was... Thank you Daniel Johnston • R.I.P. 🖤
I don't know this man or his music but I'm sitting here crying my eyes out. trying to stifle sobs to keep my kids from hearing. I'm sad to know he has passed away. I wish him the best in the afterlife.
the girl that regret leaving came back into my life recently, idk how to explain it. we usually play games together because that’s literally the only enjoyable thing to do besides talking. she had to leave because she had to eat dinner and this song turned on as soon as she left. i had already became interested in her again and this just put the cherry on the cake for me. thank you daniel johnston, im pissed i didnt find your art before your passing. may your soul rest.
This sounds like it was played in his living room in front of a some close friends after dinner and drinks, just because. Simple. Unpolished. Brief. Immediate. Relatable. Heartfelt. Beautiful. And because of that, it's now one of my favourite pieces of music of all time.
I used to listen this song when i broked up a seven years relationship and was totally lost. In a way that comforted me. It was as if Daniel were saying "be patient." A few years later true love found me. Don't give up! :)
I recently ended an eight year relationship, not an easy choice, not sure if it was the right choice, this song is breaking me in half but it feels good.
this song is i think one of the greatest folk songs of all time, the amount of emotions this man can make you feel with just a fragile voice and a guitar is honestly astouding, i actually cried a lot listening to this it's a song that needs to remain in everyone memory and shouldn't be forgotten RIP Daniel Johnston
This is the first time I've ever heard Daniel Johnston and I couldn't help but shed some tears listening to this. I know a little bit about his background and his struggles with mental illness and such, and I found out he passed away through these comments, which made me kinda sad. But I wanted to share my thoughts on this song. Listening to this reminded me of a heavy shroom trip I took where I experienced ego death, I had died in my trip and it was one of the scariest, yet beautiful experiences I have ever felt. I was very scared because the dying felt so real to me, but the beauty I experienced after I died was soooo overwhelmingly beautiful, I felt such good feelings and could see beautiful colors and visuals, it felt better than any love or beautiful emotion I could ever feel, and I can't help but feel like this song speaks to me in that sense. Maybe it's not love through other people that we find in the end, but rather true love we experience from something more, from the entities/energies in the universe that we cant see but can feel. Maybe when we die we get enveloped in a type of love that we dont understand as we are living, but when we die it all makes sense. I cant help but feel like it's the ultimate peace, and this song speaks to me and makes me feel like Daniel Johnston understood this, and maybe that's what he was speaking on, "true love will find you in the end" It may not be true and my comment may just be more ramblings of a madman, but I find this soooo beautiful, and I really do hope we all find true love in the end. Peace and love be with you all if you made it this far.
I think it’s because in many ways he was a child. His mental illness never really allowed him to grow into his own adult. He never had a relationship beyond platonic friendship
I dedicate this song to all the single homies out there who don't have anyone for Valentine's Day... that day will come when you find that special someone until then remember to love yourself ❤️ 2022
I remember when I was much younger, there was a documentary playing on the tv about Daniel Johnston. As I watched, I thought to myself, "his music sounds really boring, how can anyone like it?" but continued watching. At the end of the documentary after I watched his story and his struggles, they played his song "Some Things Last A Long Time" and it just struck me in a weird emotional way. Many years later, that song suddenly just slipped into my head and made me go back and look through Daniel Johnston's work (and love it). Strange. Some things really do last a long time.
I dont think a single song has ever made me actually cry. I never cry, I've watched movies and listened to many sad and beautiful songs, watched beautiful videos on RUclips that also jerked a tear from me. But this made me cry instantly, its so genuine and beautiful. True love, that search that we search so frantically for in life. That which if most people stopped to look around would realize they have through friends and family. Some of the comments talk about this song from the perspective that Daniel was singing about romantic love and only that. Even if it was, it only makes the song more tragic in such a genuine way: he couldn't see the love of his own parents who he seemed to disdain in earlier years. Such a simple, beautiful song holy shit Edited because I realized I forgot to include words which would make this paragraph make sense
Daniel johnson was a person who had such a hard life the battles he had to go through everyday in terms of his mental health must of been so painful and tormenting so the way he still managed to find an escape for it with his music even if it was for a short while and its just him recording it on a cassete player at home it was his way off showing who he was as a person in terms of the songs the titles of the songs, the artwork it was just so raw and real and im glad the world got to hear it in some capacity
daniel is probably one of the most honest people, his music is unadulterated, raw and self-expressionistic. despite his rough life and problems he manages to make songs like this and its amazing. Just pure optimism and hope from someone with such a sad story
DesolationAngel oddly I have never heard of him before two days ago. I listened to most of his interview stuff. For who is was growing up in Austin Texas. He is extremely lucky. and blessed with community and talent. His death will be celibrated for a while. god bless his fans. I know they love him deeply. later JJ 🐸
“daniel is definitely going to heaven he’s already been through hell” - daniels sisters friend who works in a mental hospital when seeing his art. :(( r.i.p. daniel
True love WILL find you in the end. Married and went through a nasty divorce. Thought I was finished with love and even spent 17 years single not wanting to experience that pain again. Then I found TRUE LOVE in the form of the sweetest woman I've ever met...from the other side of the world in Korea. Wasn't looking, and neither was she, but LOVE found us. As Daniel say's..."don't give up".
Congac Bodean Yeah but Daniel Johnston never married, never had a real girlfriend, likely never even had sex before, and lives with his parents at 54 because he can't really live on his own due to his crippling mental illnes (he's diagnosed as both bipolar and schizophrenic). It makes the song that much more sad to me, wondering if Daniel still holds out a hope of finding true love, even with his situation, at his age.
+Relatively Santos : Hee hee...nice play on words. But, yes I did. It's been four years now and I can say without a shadow of a doubt I have never been happier.

Sounds foolish, but I am at a loss since youtube changed the reply system. Thanks in advance for your feedback. Tom.
life is weird, it's nice that music has this ability of distracting us and/or bringing us to a more beautiful place and that people are able to share this feeling
i saw the moldy peaches in london last night and while we were waiting for them to come out, they played this over the speakers. this song has been in my life for years and i treasure it like a friend. i was in a lot of pain and feeling kinda overwhelmed by the amount of people flooding in, but the second this played i felt all the uncertainty and anxiety in my body dissipate. i just can’t explain how it makes me feel - it’s like a hug.
jawtek82 you don't get it and never will. Maybe this guy lost someone important or a true love. So my advice to you is. Keep listening to your crap music And leave.
Your advice is about as good as this song. How many have not lost someone important? But we don't all cry at childish, un-musical, drivel like this song - and certainly not "most times [we] hear" it.
jawtek82 Un musical drivel is your main choice of music! if you cannot appreciate the chord progression and timing, and tuning of this song. And everybody deals with it. You just chose to type up a dumb comment. Just go back to your top 100 billboard songs and keep thinking your a good person.
im a big music collector but had not heard of Daniel until I read about his passing 20 minutes ago, so I searched him on RUclips, this is the first song of his I listened to, its recorded very amateurishly, the balance is all out of whack, it has an almost childlike innocence about its simplicity but it brought tears to my eyes, absolutely brilliant!
I love my autistic mate with learning disabilities. I love her company, she is the best and I am always there for her. She has faced all of the loneliness and bullying and abuse of all kinds. She never had a friend. Now she’s got me. I’m an activist psychotherapist and I’ve got her back from now on whenever she wants my help. I don’t give up and I don’t walk away. But when I’m on my own I’m heartbroken and I listen to this and I cry.
I m sure I will never find true love,i stopped searching.i have never met you Daniel Johnston but I miss you so much.i have severe OCD it's hell on earth
Words cannot describe how sad I am right now... Daniel's songs, and this one in particular, helped me through a dark period in my life that I don't even know how I managed to come out alive of. RIP Legend!
i visited daniel johnston at his home. there were paper airplanes in the basement. each one had a name. an accordion hung from the rafters. secret poems were scrawled upon mcdonalds merchandise. his chilled eyes were scanning glaciers. a pre-recorded message welcomed me... RIP to a beautiful soul.
pure joy Thank u Miss you boys always and 4ever RIP Hug your loved one Be nice Don’t lie. I love you more than your mother. Tjc2 Thanx 4 posting sincerely
I've listened to this song so many times in my life, but this time was the first time ever a song has ever made me cry, and i wasn't even thinking about the lyrics.
I only wish this song was longer. I can't explain why but i love this so much. It's sweet and sad and hopeful (something about that line "don't be sad, I know you will" that just cuts me right to the core). I'm so glad I found this song and at the same time I really want to cry I think.
Once in a while, a pure and divine message is broadcast into this universe from that somewhere else, which pierces through your soul and touches that buried and undisturbed part of you; the part that is the connecting link to everything else. This is one of those messages. In no tangible way is this song special. But there is an ineffable quality there that makes it unbearably powerful. Few ever find a route into themselves that goes deep enough to pull something like this out, and fewer still have the courage and ability to convey it. Thank you, Daniel. Rest easy...
indierokkers Your comment reminds me of a man trying to troll. With a name like indierokkers I would think you would be able to appreciate Daniel. Guess you just don't get it. Go listen to some more mainstream drivel and leave us here on the obscure side of youtube where we came to get away from people like you.

The reason why this song is so heartbreakingly sad is because deep down everyone knows true love sometimes never finds you.
I feel, the reason the song is sad is because people even need to be reminded that there will always be people who love you
it will and i think that's what makes us cry, that despite everything that hurts you can suddenly realize you don't have to suffer and that it will get better and you feel releived and silly for all that useless pain and grateful for daniel for reminding you of such simple things!
And sometimes it finds a really damaged person who doesn’t know how to accept it.
This song changed my life when it came to love.

You put it so beautifully and perfectly. All the reasons Daniel Johnston is so inspirational.

"How can it recognize you...unless you step out into the light, the light?"
(I love the way he says "the light" twice)
This song makes me hopeful since he was...
Thank you Daniel Johnston • R.I.P. 🖤
I don't know this man or his music but I'm sitting here crying my eyes out. trying to stifle sobs to keep my kids from hearing. I'm sad to know he has passed away. I wish him the best in the afterlife.
the girl that regret leaving came back into my life recently, idk how to explain it. we usually play games together because that’s literally the only enjoyable thing to do besides talking. she had to leave because she had to eat dinner and this song turned on as soon as she left. i had already became interested in her again and this just put the cherry on the cake for me. thank you daniel johnston, im pissed i didnt find your art before your passing. may your soul rest.
This sounds like it was played in his living room in front of a some close friends after dinner and drinks, just because. Simple. Unpolished. Brief. Immediate. Relatable. Heartfelt. Beautiful. And because of that, it's now one of my favourite pieces of music of all time.
So happy I got to meet him a few years before he died in London. I've got an original picture as well, he drew me a picture. An extraordinary man
I used to listen this song when i broked up a seven years relationship and was totally lost. In a way that comforted me. It was as if Daniel were saying "be patient." A few years later true love found me. Don't give up! :)
💕 Love is like a carousel 🎠
I recently ended an eight year relationship, not an easy choice, not sure if it was the right choice, this song is breaking me in half but it feels good.
this song is i think one of the greatest folk songs of all time, the amount of emotions this man can make you feel with just a fragile voice and a guitar is honestly astouding, i actually cried a lot listening to this
it's a song that needs to remain in everyone memory and shouldn't be forgotten
RIP Daniel Johnston
This is the first time I've ever heard Daniel Johnston and I couldn't help but shed some tears listening to this. I know a little bit about his background and his struggles with mental illness and such, and I found out he passed away through these comments, which made me kinda sad. But I wanted to share my thoughts on this song. Listening to this reminded me of a heavy shroom trip I took where I experienced ego death, I had died in my trip and it was one of the scariest, yet beautiful experiences I have ever felt. I was very scared because the dying felt so real to me, but the beauty I experienced after I died was soooo overwhelmingly beautiful, I felt such good feelings and could see beautiful colors and visuals, it felt better than any love or beautiful emotion I could ever feel, and I can't help but feel like this song speaks to me in that sense. Maybe it's not love through other people that we find in the end, but rather true love we experience from something more, from the entities/energies in the universe that we cant see but can feel. Maybe when we die we get enveloped in a type of love that we dont understand as we are living, but when we die it all makes sense. I cant help but feel like it's the ultimate peace, and this song speaks to me and makes me feel like Daniel Johnston understood this, and maybe that's what he was speaking on, "true love will find you in the end"
It may not be true and my comment may just be more ramblings of a madman, but I find this soooo beautiful, and I really do hope we all find true love in the end. Peace and love be with you all if you made it this far.
This song always gives me hope, no matter what.
+Sòphìe Me too.
+Sòphìe good to hear youre feeling better ://
Hi Sophie!
hah, I bet you get a lot of replys
Yo why have i seen you literally everywhere lmao
breaks my fucking heart every fucking time
ilo oli don't be sad, i know you will, don't give up until, true love will find you in the end.
+ilo oli Listen to "Crazy Love" . I cry everytime I listen to It .
daniel johnston
I feel you
people work so hard trying to write music like a child, and he definitely does it. its so genuine.
I think it’s because in many ways he was a child. His mental illness never really allowed him to grow into his own adult. He never had a relationship beyond platonic friendship
I dedicate this song to all the single homies out there who don't have anyone for Valentine's Day... that day will come when you find that special someone until then remember to love yourself ❤️ 2022
Some of us don't want relationships and also love ourselves.
I remember when I was much younger, there was a documentary playing on the tv about Daniel Johnston. As I watched, I thought to myself, "his music sounds really boring, how can anyone like it?" but continued watching. At the end of the documentary after I watched his story and his struggles, they played his song "Some Things Last A Long Time" and it just struck me in a weird emotional way. Many years later, that song suddenly just slipped into my head and made me go back and look through Daniel Johnston's work (and love it). Strange. Some things really do last a long time.
2008?
That was "The Devil and Daniel Johnston." Great film.
C'est bien la première fois que je remercie la Sncf...
When you find an artist and then discover they just died, that's always a true bummer. What an authentic song. It brought tears to my eyes.
wow, you really do wanna cry, this is the most pure thing
I dont think a single song has ever made me actually cry. I never cry, I've watched movies and listened to many sad and beautiful songs, watched beautiful videos on RUclips that also jerked a tear from me. But this made me cry instantly, its so genuine and beautiful. True love, that search that we search so frantically for in life. That which if most people stopped to look around would realize they have through friends and family. Some of the comments talk about this song from the perspective that Daniel was singing about romantic love and only that. Even if it was, it only makes the song more tragic in such a genuine way: he couldn't see the love of his own parents who he seemed to disdain in earlier years. Such a simple, beautiful song holy shit
Edited because I realized I forgot to include words which would make this paragraph make sense
imagine living your whole life alone and dying to this song
Fuckkkk
me ;_;
That's my dream. I swear!!
MCRIIIDEEEEEE
Nice point 👍
Daniel johnson was a person who had such a hard life the battles he had to go through everyday in terms of his mental health must of been so painful and tormenting so the way he still managed to find an escape for it with his music even if it was for a short while and its just him recording it on a cassete player at home it was his way off showing who he was as a person in terms of the songs the titles of the songs, the artwork it was just so raw and real and im glad the world got to hear it in some capacity
This is the most beautiful song ever written
I just had the most intense cry I've had in months because of this song. It's so beautiful
Snot began to flow from my nose and I pooped a little bit I feel the exact same way.
daniel is probably one of the most honest people, his music is unadulterated, raw and self-expressionistic. despite his rough life and problems he manages to make songs like this and its amazing. Just pure optimism and hope from someone with such a sad story
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
Just read the sad news and instantly came to this song as it's my favourite. Rest in peace, Daniel. 😥
DesolationAngel oddly I have never heard of him before two days ago. I listened to most of his interview stuff. For who is was growing up in Austin Texas. He is extremely lucky. and blessed with community and talent. His death will be celibrated for a while. god bless his fans. I know they love him deeply. later JJ 🐸
Try and watch 'The Devil and Daniel Johnston' if you can. It's a very good movie on his life.
i dont wanna die alone anymore
My only regret is that I am only able to give this song a single thumbs-up.
finding this 13 years later, Rest in peace mate
Although living life gets stuck in my head the the most this song reasonates the most to me.
“daniel is definitely going to heaven he’s already been through hell” - daniels sisters friend who works in a mental hospital when seeing his art. :(( r.i.p. daniel
True love WILL find you in the end. Married and went through a nasty divorce. Thought I was finished with love and even spent 17 years single not wanting to experience that pain again. Then I found TRUE LOVE in the form of the sweetest woman I've ever met...from the other side of the world in Korea. Wasn't looking, and neither was she, but LOVE found us. As Daniel say's..."don't give up".
Congac Bodean Yeah but Daniel Johnston never married, never had a real girlfriend, likely never even had sex before, and lives with his parents at 54 because he can't really live on his own due to his crippling mental illnes (he's diagnosed as both bipolar and schizophrenic). It makes the song that much more sad to me, wondering if Daniel still holds out a hope of finding true love, even with his situation, at his age.
Ethan Beller Are you saying DJ isn't the biggest thing in the world still? What's up with that?
She's Korean? so you found your Seoul mate.
+Relatively Santos : Hee hee...nice play on words. But, yes I did. It's been four years now and I can say without a shadow of a doubt I have never been happier. On another topic...maybe you can help me with this. Why am I getting a lot of random action on my comment. None of it seems related to my posting...except yours. Sounds foolish, but I am at a loss since youtube changed the reply system. Thanks in advance for your feedback. Tom.
grats, just grats :)
I dated a guy and he was everything i ever wanted
Jaynell Yazzie can I ask what happened? I’m so sorry
Im so sorry darling, i know now how it feel. I hope u the best of the lifes. True love will find you in the end.
I'm genuinely sorry
i wish this story was true
similar thing happened to us but he was a family. I still feel denial to this day.
Cant believe it’s been a year. RIP Daniel Johnston.
It makes me cry every time. Something truly beautiful about this song.
song: don't be sad i kno u will
me: is immediately sad
god damn. I am way too fucked up to listen to this
who's being the edgy prick here?
Don't give up...True love will find you in the end : )
Asuka best waifu just being Asuka i guess...
crap
Rest in peace, Daniel. I doubt you'll read this wherever you are. But you left us with a ton of wonderful songs. I only wish I'd discovered you sooner
I had never heard of this guy or this song or anything. It was just a RUclips suggestion. This made me cry.
Best love song of all time. Like, it’s not even very close
life is weird, it's nice that music has this ability of distracting us and/or bringing us to a more beautiful place and that people are able to share this feeling
+Providence Beacon Great, Just great!
+Providence Beacon I agree
Its also pretentious, like you.

“True love is like when you have some good times and when you remember them they’re even better” -Daniel Johnston
i saw the moldy peaches in london last night and while we were waiting for them to come out, they played this over the speakers. this song has been in my life for years and i treasure it like a friend. i was in a lot of pain and feeling kinda overwhelmed by the amount of people flooding in, but the second this played i felt all the uncertainty and anxiety in my body dissipate. i just can’t explain how it makes me feel - it’s like a hug.
Literally crying at my desk listening to this right now
And here i am again...and this song still moves me to my core. RIP brother
I cry most times I hear this
Seek professional help. Lots of it.
jawtek82 you don't get it and never will. Maybe this guy lost someone important or a true love. So my advice to you is. Keep listening to your crap music And leave.
Your advice is about as good as this song. How many have not lost someone important? But we don't all cry at childish, un-musical, drivel like this song - and certainly not "most times [we] hear" it.
jawtek82 Un musical drivel is your main choice of music! if you cannot appreciate the chord progression and timing, and tuning of this song. And everybody deals with it. You just chose to type up a dumb comment. Just go back to your top 100 billboard songs and keep thinking your a good person.
Think of a good comeback now, don't disappoint yourself.
I've always seen this song as not just true love, but as happiness and meaning. You've gotta put in the work but you will find it.
@Hello there, how are you doing this blessed day?
This has been one of my all time favourite songs for the longest time. Rest in peace, Dan.
Daniel was beautiful in an unfathomably ugly world.
im a big music collector but had not heard of Daniel until I read about his passing 20 minutes ago, so I searched him on RUclips, this is the first song of his I listened to, its recorded very amateurishly, the balance is all out of whack, it has an almost childlike innocence about its simplicity but it brought tears to my eyes, absolutely brilliant!
That's why we love it. Check out more!
How it was recorded does not matter, that it was, does.
I love my autistic mate with learning disabilities. I love her company, she is the best and I am always there for her. She has faced all of the loneliness and bullying and abuse of all kinds. She never had a friend. Now she’s got me. I’m an activist psychotherapist and I’ve got her back from now on whenever she wants my help. I don’t give up and I don’t walk away.
But when I’m on my own I’m heartbroken and I listen to this and I cry.

What makes this sad and makes me cry, is knowing that true love doesnt exist. And if it does, so very few find it.
Don't mind me just gonna listen to this 5 times in a row
I was so sad that they removed this from spotify, so happy its still here on youtube.
I love you Daniel. I won't give up.
Missing him today.
I m sure I will never find true love,i stopped searching.i have never met you Daniel Johnston but I miss you so much.i have severe OCD it's hell on earth
Words cannot describe how sad I am right now... Daniel's songs, and this one in particular, helped me through a dark period in my life that I don't even know how I managed to come out alive of. RIP Legend!
i visited daniel johnston at his home. there were paper airplanes in the basement. each one had a name. an accordion hung from the rafters. secret poems were scrawled upon mcdonalds merchandise. his chilled eyes were scanning glaciers. a pre-recorded message welcomed me...
RIP to a beautiful soul.
That's really nice.
pure joy
Thank u
Miss you boys always and 4ever RIP
Hug your loved one
Be nice
Don’t lie.
I love you more than your mother.

Thanx 4 posting sincerely
I've listened to this song so many times in my life, but this time was the first time ever a song has ever made me cry, and i wasn't even thinking about the lyrics.
I only wish this song was longer. I can't explain why but i love this so much. It's sweet and sad and hopeful (something about that line "don't be sad, I know you will" that just cuts me right to the core). I'm so glad I found this song and at the same time I really want to cry I think.
Once in a while, a pure and divine message is broadcast into this universe from that somewhere else, which pierces through your soul and touches that buried and undisturbed part of you; the part that is the connecting link to everything else. This is one of those messages. In no tangible way is this song special. But there is an ineffable quality there that makes it unbearably powerful. Few ever find a route into themselves that goes deep enough to pull something like this out, and fewer still have the courage and ability to convey it. Thank you, Daniel. Rest easy...
you're right. i feel like if you were to reach out to feel the creases of beauty, you would find this song
CRYING. CRYING BECAUSE I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO WRITE SOMETHING THIS GOOD. I'LL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE THIS GOOD. 😭🔥💯
Happy birthday Daniel Johnston, we'll miss you 😭
It’s 2021 & I’m just now hearing this for the first time, what a beautiful song.
enjoy! :)
Rip
Vans took me here... Thanks vans!
I played this song yesterday in our church worship service. It was part of a tribute to people who had passed away during the year.
This is the first time I've ever heard this song, Im crying
This song reminds me of 60's Bob Dylan love it
Kelly Robinson this song reminds me of a man trying to drown a cat
indierokkers Your comment reminds me of a man trying to troll.
With a name like indierokkers I would think you would be able to appreciate Daniel. Guess you just don't get it. Go listen to some more mainstream drivel and leave us here on the obscure side of youtube where we came to get away from people like you.
indierokkers Oh shut up, kid you're not a true indie rocker.
you're a true piece of shit
never has there been a song that more reliably makes me bawl my eyes out
harden up mate
My friends know when I pass I want them to party and listen to my favorite jams. This is one of them
