Wow. I have loved this song for my entire adult life, Daniel Johnston's original, various covers, but I cannot remember a version which hit me emotionally as much as this has. Wow.
Kalyan Ram the idea of “you couldn’t do better” is completely childish and makes no sense at all. If we didn’t critique the things that people claim to specialize in, there’d be no quality control. People love to criticize world leaders but could never run a nation if they were put in the situation. I’m not saying that Lana is not talented, she’s absolutely nothing if not talented, but this song in particular just feels like a bastardization of the original.
Loved this song since I was 12 y/o when I heard my older cousin listening to it. Just now found this Lana cover. Tears in my eyes, feeling joy an pain at the same time. Always think of my brother that took his own life. And smile ❤❤
This cover and song is so beautiful. It's simplicity and lyrics really get to me, especially the one lyric where it says "I still think about you." It's personal, but I guess thats what makes the song so emotional. Amazing, I love you Lana and thank you to whoever wrote the song.
Daniel Johnston wrote the song. He died at 58 on 9/11/2019. He was a unique & intensely honest songwriter & performer. Lana Del Ray does an exquisite version of his song (not saying better, but beautiful all the same). All the better that more people hear his work. 🎶
Your picture is still on my wall, on my wall The colors are bright, bright as ever Red is strong, but blue is true Some things last a long time Some things last a long time Your picture is still on my wall, on my wall I think about you often, often I can’t forget all the things we did Some things last a long time Some things last a long time It’s funny, but it’s true And it’s true, but it’s not funny Time comes and goes All the while I still think about you Some things last a long time Your picture is still on my wall, on my wall The colors are bright, bright as ever Things that we did are we forget Some things last a long time Some things last a long time
I came here after watching the short DJ short film. I balled like a baby watching it. Lol. And i don't cry to anything. So it makes it that much more special. R.I.P. Dan, and good job Lana!
You dont fully understand the lyrics. I don’t either. No one can. That is what makes Dan such a wonderful enigma. He had his own universe in his mind, only there did his art make sense. Out here we just have to try our hardest to understand his degree of purity and genius.
The idea behind the song is that although Laurie Allen (Daniel’s muse) wasn’t in his life anymore, he still remembered her and loved her. The picture being on the wall is a metaphor in this case. In case you didn’t know, Laurie was a girl Dan went to college with in East Liverpool, Ohio whom he had a crush on. His friendship with her ended after she had gotten married with a grave digger. Interestingly enough, he ended up meeting Laurie again in 2005 at the premiere of his documentary/movie “The Devil and Daniel Johnston” The only girl Dan “dated” was Cathy McCarty whom remained a friend of his until Dan died in 2019. She also made a cover album of all of Dans songs in the 90’s and ended up marrying one of Daniels closest friends after Dan had introduced her to him through his poetry. So unfortunately Daniel never found true love in the end which is probably the most heartbreaking part of his life.
It sucks that some people can't simply appreciate the work and start with this how does it better bullshit, I am not a Daniel Johnston fan, I have known this song for awhile through other artists like Beach House, that also covered this song. I am a Lana Del Rey fan and I am grateful to hear this song that I like, with her voice that I love, thank you Daniel and thank you Lana.
God the little change in the way she sings some things laaaaast a. Long time. Gets me every time and to me captured what Daniel Johnston was capturing first. Beautiful stuff. One word
I remember the last time I saw me nan, she told me about being a little girl during the blitzkrieg bombings, how her dad died of a heart attack shortly after the war and how her mother bought her an expensive white coat afterwards which meant a lot to her. Some things really do last a lifetime
This is the song that i played for my now ex when i left Montana to move back to GA. We had a good relationship, we just wanted different things, but thinking of her always makes me want to listen to this one.
Wow! a mix of my two favorites artists... I couldn't imagine that such a thing could happen. I prefer Dan's version but I would enjoy if she cover more daniel's song :D
Someone help. I need more songs like this. I've been listening to this on repeat for days now! (P.s. I'm already familiar with all of Daniel Johnston's stuff and all of Lana Del Rey's stuff)
A damn good choice for a cover. I don't think most songs by Daniel Johnston are good, but some are very good, and this is one of them. I prefer the original, but I like this one, and I think it was an important initiative to perpetuate the work of this interesting artist that is Daniel Johnston.

But since he is severely mentally ill, suicide is a usual part of the package and can be triggered by anything because the view on reality is skewed. Mental illness is the scariest thing that can befall a person.
Music is a product and must be bought. So for every cover, there is a price paid and has nothing to do with the writer of the music but the legalities involved and copyright limits etc.
this whole songs screams mental illness. This poor bloke was obsessed with a girl called Laura or Laurie and he was singing about her picture a decade later. If you listen to it from her POV then its a really creepy song.
RIP Daniel Johnston.
wat??

This cover is so shit it actually killed him when he heard it.
@@llqvss :)
@@jamesturner740 lol he liked lana
Her voice is so beautiful. I love when Lana sings cover songs.
the original is alot more meloncholy and kinda eerie
+fantasticmrghetto1 Tbh I hate the original. Great song but the voice... I just can't
+Frname daniel johnston is a better artist than lana del rey

i was just saying that daniel johnston is a better artist than lana ever will be
Both versions of this are just perfection...
Give Jennylee’s cover a listen. The best version IMO.

she really did nail this cover
Kaylee Arletta finally some truth
Neil D Did he actually want to kill himself after it was put out?
Neil lmao hardly her fault if it made him want to kill himself
@@neil2483 excuse me. She nailed this cover. I would love to see your amazing beautiful cover here sweetie :)

I love Daniel Johnson and Lana Del Rey
Aryanna Tutt what about Daniel Johnston?
I love Ben Johnson and Barbara Rey
NOPE ONLY DANIEL
and beach house 🏖
Great cover. RIP Daniel gone much too soon.
Just when I think she can't get more cool, she goes and covers Daniel Johnston...
They were friends apparently. There’s quite a few videos/written-articles of them hanging out.
@@ryanspivey8969awww I love that 🥺
Lana sounds a lot like Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star here. Great cover, i keep returning to this one
Some say the most beautiful song ever written.
Such a haunting cover.. so beautiful...so melancholic. I cannot imagine any other artist covering this phenomenal song... love you Lana!!
Built to Spill covered it back in the 90s and nailed it
@@teppeiando BEST cover ever was Built to Spill. But Lana is a close second!
This cover and song is so beautiful. It's simplicity and lyrics really get to me, especially the one lyric where it says "I still think about you." It's personal, but I guess thats what makes the song so emotional. Amazing, I love you Lana and thank you to whoever wrote the song.
daniel johnston.. his version is better
+blake bartee subjective... lanas voice is a million times better
Ronnie Felix true but I think that the artistry and beauty of the song and lyrics are in his voice not hers.
Ronnie Felix wrong

Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
Your picture is still on my wall, on my wall
I think about you often, often
I can’t forget all the things we did
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
It’s funny, but it’s true
And it’s true, but it’s not funny
Time comes and goes
All the while I still think about you
Some things last a long time
Your picture is still on my wall, on my wall
The colors are bright, bright as ever
Things that we did are we forget
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
In the original lyrics (by Daniel Johnston), "the blue is pure"

Thanks
And , " something's last a life time"
I came here after watching the short DJ short film. I balled like a baby watching it. Lol. And i don't cry to anything. So it makes it that much more special. R.I.P. Dan, and good job Lana!
now that i fully understand the lyrics this makes me cry everytime, the relationship didnt last, but the picture of her has lasted a long time
Thank Daniel man
Sad wish it would have lasted! I could have loved u the best! 🎼🙏🙏🙏🎼🌠🎙🌠🥁💯🕊🍃🌷🍃🌷🍃🌷🍃🕊💌🤟🙌😇💯

The fact that she got to meet him before he passed is historic to me, an icon meeting an icon
You are loved by humans you never knew

Daniel Johnston was a homeboy and I think he would have loved this version.

Beautiful cover. R.I.P. Daniel :(
She makes a the sad song a million times more sad :’(
I'm crying
Her NY accent is one of her most endearing features. Love it! What a wonderful interpretation of a melancholy masterpiece. Go Lana
+Von Bear What is NY accent?
+Frname new york accent
sweet serial killer
LOL I know. I just wanted to know the "sound" of this accent
Where can I find a studio version of this?? Is this on iTunes ?
+frankieinfrance what do you mean by studio version? thats the studio version lol
...but not forever
RIP Daniel
🎼🙏🙏🙏🎼🕊🍃🌷🍃🌷🍃🌷🍃🕊💌🤟🌠🎙🌠🥁💯😇🙌🥰
Te amo Lana..
Very mazzy star
This song brings me a Life is Strange feeling 😢💔🦋
always makes me so emotional.
I listened to a lot of music today but this is the only song that matters
In case you didn't know Barrie-James O'Neill produced this and also is playing the quitar.
lol how sad is this
Man On The Moon are you really that stupid... they’re obviously talking about lana’s version not daniel’s version 🙄
Man On The Moon
Daniel didn’t even produce HIS version of the song, it was done by Jad Fair from Half Japanese.

Tomorrow Never Came reminds me of this!!!!

Bright as ever
The red is strong, the blue is pure
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
Your picture is still
On my wall, on my wall
I think about you
Often, often
I won't forget all the things we did
Some things last a long time
Some things last a long time
It's funny, but it's true
And it's true, but it's not funny
Time comes and goes, but all the while
I still think of you
Some things last a long time

On my wall, on my wall
The colors are bright
Bright as ever
The things we did, I can't forget
Some things last a lifetime
Some things last a lifetime
Some things last a lifetime

This is beautiful, thanks Daniel.
One day when we meet I will tell you how much I love your cover of this song.
godness
daniel jhonston covrr
lmao thank you
he actually threaten to kill himself off this cover and it sent him into bad mental health because her felt it was commercialized and insincere
But since he is severely mentally ill, suicide is a usual part of the package and can be triggered by anything because the view on reality is skewed. Mental illness is the scariest thing that can befall a person.
Music is a product and must be bought. So for every cover, there is a price paid and has nothing to do with the writer of the music but the legalities involved and copyright limits etc.
this whole songs screams mental illness. This poor bloke was obsessed with a girl called Laura or Laurie and he was singing about her picture a decade later. If you listen to it from her POV then its a really creepy song.
WHAT AN ANGEL
