I saw this man live. It was the most religious experience I have ever had.
same
Just amazing. Easily the most underrated musician of our generation.
no, Coldplay
ichwilldasvideo3 go away
an authentic musician just floors you when you see one, he is certainly one of those, fantastic.
God damn this song never gets old. It transports me to a wind swept Montana valley about 10000 years ago. “I plan to be forgotten when I’m gone”.
"And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone."
Not if you keep making music like this!
I was in high-school the first time I saw this, 13 plus years later I just happened to come back to this video.
Excellent performance.
Thanks Jools Holland for introducing me to this really awesome artist.
He's my new favorite artist. I've been listening to him obsessively since I first heard him a week ago
Same here.
Man its a shame you didnt discover him sooner! :P
This is probably my favorite song by him and one of my all time favorites. It's so calm. It makes me think about farms and quiet rivers and nature. I also really like the tuning in this recording. It sounds a bit happier
Isn't it ironic, many of those who plan to be forgotten are forever remembered?
"What you feel in the presence of a thing you admire is just one word--'Yes.' The affirmation, the acceptance, the sign of admittance. And that 'Yes' is more than an answer to one thing, it's a kind of 'Amen' to life, to the earth that holds this thing, to the thought that created it, to yourself for being able to see it."
*normal voice* "This is the wild hunt"
*starts playing guitar* SONG VOICE ACTIVATE
I had the pleasure of seeing The Tallest Man On Earth playing live on Thursday past. For at least 2 hours he put his heart and soul into everything that he played, and I can honestly say that I have never seen a musician get into the music so much. It was so evident by his behaviour that he loves what he does and that he was born to make beautiful music. For someone to describe Kristian Mattson as 'mediocre' is quite laughable really. He is so much more than that. His music changed my life.
I remember discovering this guy through this video a couple years ago and i remember playing this video over and over again and falling in love with it. Kristian Matsson is so freaking under rated man, he deserves so much more recognition then he gets.
This man is awesome.
One of the best acoustic album i've ever listened to.
it pains me that it took me this long to find this guy he has a natural brilliance to him that doesn't come around too often
the world needs more artists like this. artists that are truly revolutionizing music.
He's a great guitar player, even his strumming is impressive. Pick always seems to be on the strings
Paul Scannapieco now you've pointed that out I'm thinking overly about out. You're right, his hand is like elastic with the pick always on the strings. I'm much more stiff when playing.
I'm pretty stiff when he's playing... XD
He has a lot of good finger style stuff too.
This is sensational. The best music i've heard this year.
OH MY WORD I WANT TO DIE TO THIS SONG
Simply brilliant!
i love how he just totally jams out like nobodys even there
It's like they combined two of my favorite people. Bob Dylan's everything, with Nate Marquardt's face.
Fantastic guitar melodies, singing and, lyrics. This man is a monster.
Everyday I´m suprised again how amazing this guy is. The voice, the guitar playing, the lyrics, the performance. Simply makes your heart sing!
I've been listening for years now & it does not get old! cheers 🍺
His voice, his musical genius just leaves me in awe after every song. Great artist. I wish you nothing but success and I'm sorry but you will never be forgotten after music like this.
He is so incredibly talented. It's breathtaking that music this classic, this timeless, this beautiful, is being made right now.
His voice live is so close to his recording voice. I like that he is so raw.
I have been listening to his music for a couple years, this is the first time iv seen him, I expected a much older man...love this mans music..brings out the sun even on gloomy days
What a passion, and what a voice!! Great!!
i feel proud of being swedish when i hear people like him! i watched him when he performed at a small café before he was discovered! and i was like "ok, he WILL become famous!"
I can't even begin to describe how emotional this song and this performance makes me
Greater Singer and a Stunning Song....
yes, yes you do. he is so energetic, his voice fills the room. he's a great entertainer and musician. i'am proud to say that I've seen the tallest man on earth live.
This guy right here, is how i began to like folk so much.
amazing.
- greetings from the faroe islands
Astonishingly beautiful song. I have listened to this SO many times and I still can't come up with an eloquent way to describe what it means to me as I listen. For me, it is perfection.
i bloody love this man
He's amazing! Seen him live twice and he's just perfect.
i will never forget how much emotion he puts into his songs
Special voice and way of telling stories, deserve special attention ;)
It's nice to hear such a pure musician
His voice literally gives me shivers.
Listening to this man makes you proud to be a Swede!!
there is no such thing as an "uneducated" listener music is not a definitive thing with one meaning. It has a different meaning for everyone and that's why it's beautiful.
keep this kind of music up and you'll never be forgotten when you're gone
'I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone'......that's a f@cking cool line!
I've just stumbled upon this and its amazing!
Also, having seen him live, I can tell you that he has amazing skills.
The passion
this is my favourite song, and has been for a while. i dont think anyone can make a better song than this :)
And I plan to be forgotten when I'm gone... these words have been haunting me!
I can safely say that there will never be a better version of a The Tallest Man on Earth song. Seriously this guy freaking amazing.
I saw him play last night in Birmingham, AL. SOOO amazing!
Just got tickets to see this guy in Brighton, at St Bartholomews church. Amazing artist, even more amazing venue, check it out.
my definition of a great summer day put into a song.
Somehow his songs are more powerful when he plays them live..He's an incredibly awesome musician that puts his whole soul into it..He's simply amazing!
If you've got time listen to "Where stories are written- The silence after the storm"
It's such a heartwarming piece of music by this new artist...Definitely worth a listen! :)
I hope you don't see this as spam, but I just think that good music needs to be shared..
you high rn bro?
This guy is a genius and this song a piece of inspired songwriting....
He reminds me so much of Bob Dylan. So good to find someone of that calibre in our generation.
This guy's great, just discovered him myself. Can't get enough of Love is All
I've only heard of him 5 days ago (02/29/12) and my iPod has been playing his stuff on repeat.
This is seriously incredible. He's definitely my favourite artist of all time.
I really like that bench/loveseat, wallpaper and lamp. This should be the backdrop to a series of singersongwriters.
This man will NOT be forgotten when he's gone, this much I know.
i didn't realize until i saw this video how little he actually does to his voice in the studio. what you hear on the record is what he actually sounds like. it's refreshing.
Got tickets to see this guy in Brighton, UK at st bartholomews church. Amazing artist, the worlds best venue. I actually can't wait :D
There was a week of my life where I would listen to this as I drank tea every morning before school. Now whenever I hear it, it makes me feel like it's morning.
This makes me even more excited to watch Inside Llewin Davis.
I am honestly sitting here drinking Jameson and listening to The Tallest Man on Earth and can do this all day. His music is just so soothing.
He has a lovely rhythmic quality to his voice
I saw James Vincent Mcmorrow there, it was amazing. Best venue ever!
I sat here at my computer and started applauding when he finished.
in my opinion he is one of the greatest men on earth!! i really like his style and his voice....greetings from germany
Just bought this on a vinyl and I am very happy to listen to it. It gives me so much love. There are some music releases which the people should buy, because guys like Tallest Man On Earth deserve it! Great music, great musician and great live shows!
this gives me goosebumps.
hope to see him live in london in october
The guitar work is beautiful in this song.
Kristian Matsson, thumbs up for Sweden
what a wonderful voice
this guy is amazing simply put
He's really fantastic!!
New album on endless repeat and I love it.
Never heard him before. Good guitar, great lyrics, love the voice and the emotion. Definitely gonna check out some more
He is so fucking good!, just flawless!
the song is called the wild hunT
*proceeds to play one of the most brilliant songs of all time*
he sounds awesome
bloody hell, what a voice!
this guy's a pure Genius
greatgreatgreatgreat GREATLY underestimated guitar playing.
it really is awesome!
That was amazing! And you play two very distinct instruments, your voice and the guitar. Really, great, could watch and listen to you for hours.
Thanks for accepting my video response, FC. My humble attempt at covering this song...
This is just stupidly magnificent. Love.
Gorgeous voice, gorgeous man
I am so glad I listened to all of his music before I knew what he looked like. Because it's some pretty tasty icing on a pretty delicious cake.
This guy is just the best.
This is one of my favourite music videos and performances. So sometimes I need to come back here. 🖤 Oh, and I also broke a string to tune my guitar and play it.
When I type in the letter "y" in my search bar, this is the first hit to show up.
Every time I have listened to King Of Spain since reading your comment I have pictured Kristian on a horse singing the song and said vision has basically improved the song, the artist and horses pretty much forever now.
So I want to thank you for that.
So damn brilliant. I'm speechless.
Good god what an amazing performance.
it baffles me how someone can stumble upon someone like this and call them a "mediocre artist" even if you dont like this music you can hear the meaning in his lyrics and appreciate his talent. even my friend who listens to rap said this isnt really my style of music but this guy is definitely good.
