You don't need to apologize for the quality, because this was incredible. I actually just played this on KXLU, and like 50k people in LA heard it, because you captured it. Thank you for that.
It stayed with me from when I saw her play this the first time at SXSW 2017 and again when she opened for Conor Oberst on his last tour. I was so fortunate to be able to finally capture this. Thanks for your thoughts!
Beautiful cover. I heard this when Danny and I were teenagers hanging out in his basement lair in WV. He was a wonderful friend to me. He used to say we have to escape the working class. He did and I'm still working.😊
I never knew who Phoebe was until i heard her do this cover. I always loved this song since i heard it over a decade ago. Daniel was so good at explaining the sadness and helplessness of depression. She does such a good job encapsulating that. You make me feel feelings Phoebe. I love this
"Trying to make sense out of scrambled eggs". Beautiful. He's using Beatles metaphor's for the word "Yesterday", or saying "trying to make sense out of the past". Genius. This is the most beautiful version I've ever heard.
@@arthurderas Prior to the song "Yesterday" being finished, the lyric was "Scrambled Eggs". Mccartney/Lennon didnt have a lyric there yet, so they simply said "scrambled eggs"....Daniel knew this, I'm sure....
@@arthurderas pretty sure that lady is wrong. he’s referring to his scrambled thoughts. the line just before mentions how he lost his mind in junior high. idk how she came to that conclusion, unless i’m misunderstanding what she’s saying lol the whole song is about his struggle with mental illness
I've heard quite a bit of Daniel's work and love what I've heard so far. This song is new to me and has just had me in tears. A little to close to home for me. I'm off to listen to the original.
RIP Danny. This is one of the most beautiful, heartwrenching, honest song's ever written. And damn, Phoebe did a wonderful job here. Thanks for recording and posting. ("Not the best quality" in the description; funny, cause it's more fitting this way, Danny wouldn't mine, im sure.) :)
Thank you so much for recording and uploading this!! I’ve been thinking of her cover since the performance. I was beginning to think I would only be able to replay it in my mind, so I was so happy when I saw this vid pop up!
This is absolutely gorgeous. I used to cover this song, and it's safe to say I have to stop covering it now. The superior version now exists, and there's no way I can match it.
Try dropping your shutter speed to below 1/160 of a second. That's what I have to do with still photography... I assume video is about the same. LED lighting is similarly a pain in the arse.
Daniel was a fantastic songwriter.
rip Daniel you kind soul

Holy shit. Thanks so much!!
^my actual profile
I really love that so much
At least someone is doing the Lord’s work!
how can i like this more than once
never did i think i'd hear phoebe bridgers do a daniel johnston cover but man is this good

I think Bridgers covering Johnston makes perfect sense. Musically and lyrically, she's his descendant. We agree about how good this is, though. 😊
Beautiful cover. I heard this when Danny and I were teenagers hanging out in his basement lair in WV. He was a wonderful friend to me. He used to say we have to escape the working class. He did and I'm still working.😊
one of her best covers.

Imo one of the top 10 songs ever written. Stunning performance
That made me tear up. Goodnight Daniel. Thank you Phoebe beautifully done.
RIP Daniel thx to write this incredible song

could you clarify what the metaphor is for me please? Beatles lover for life in need of your light and kindness ... thxsm

@@MaryLouLord1 Thank you, I wasn't seeing it as a metaphor for the past lol, but now I understand you.. thaenkz

connecting the dots
Oh is that Phoebe Bridgers making more amazingly beautiful music again? Of course it is. Bloody hell, she's wonderful!
canadan0014, thank you, thank you, thank you. I think you're a whole lot of people's favorite person for posting this. You're certainly mine!
Goddamn this lady had a extremely beautiful soul,
Gosh. Danny thanks for planting the seeds that are these beautiful songs into the world
foms
This is one of my favorite performances of all time. I come back to it time and again. Thank you for capturing it and posting it.
Nice cover of an under-appreciated gem.
Sometimes I listen to this on repeat for hours
I've heard quite a bit of Daniel's work and love what I've heard so far. This song is new to me and has just had me in tears. A little to close to home for me. I'm off to listen to the original.
Holy crap. Every time I hear someone do this to Daniels songs I need more
RIP Danny. This is one of the most beautiful, heartwrenching, honest song's ever written. And damn, Phoebe did a wonderful job here. Thanks for recording and posting. ("Not the best quality" in the description; funny, cause it's more fitting this way, Danny wouldn't mine, im sure.) :)
When you really feel this song's lyrics, it hits hard.. really hard
A truly lovely and proper rendition. I can feel your love for his song....It's just wonderful
omg I wish she would sing every Daniel Johnston song
Heart wrenching. Love it so much
I watch this at least once a month. Sometimes weekly.
Thank you so much for recording and uploading this!! I’ve been thinking of her cover since the performance. I was beginning to think I would only be able to replay it in my mind, so I was so happy when I saw this vid pop up!
My feelings too! I was so fortunate to be there to get it.
Beautiful.
i was at this in-store as well, and i come back and watch this video all the time. thanks for capturing it!
Katie McNeil I’m so glad to hear that. Thank you for saying so!

The universe made a Phoebe Bridgers. What more do you want?

I was there too!!! Randomly found this and was like why does that dress and set up look so familiar... lol nice. thanks for sharing

Ni apologies necessary. You’re doing the Lord’s work.
Gorgeous. ❤

Vulnerable
I love that dress
So good! Does anyone know which model of Epiphone she is playing?
If anyone's interested I think it's an Epiphone Frontier FT-110! Possibly from the 60's or early 70's. Love the pick guard so much.
what chords, and in what order? i'm a complete noob but ive almost got it.. help pls :)
E***** siempre que vea este video me acordaré de ti
this song reminds me of Ketchum, ID and Chesapeake
this sounds so wistful
🥰
offing myself to this cover no one has heard my cries for help since i was 11 years old

TRAGEDY
