DD: What a sweetheart. Always speaking of his mother and children with such love.
You've just got to admire the shit out of a guy, who goes so far out of his comfort zone, writing about content that obviously makes him vulnerable and exposed. He could've rested on his laurels and not taken the chance to do something he obviously has a passion for. There's a lesson in there........
I've been listening to the album constantly in the car and it's been turning into a favorite of mine.
A dude who works construction should not grab a scalpel and perform open heart surgery and this guy should not sing anymore. Ever. Seriously just stop!
It can take a very long time for a singer to find his right kind of genre/type/sound. The last song, was very very good. He needs a bit more vocal training but I could not be happier to have listened to him. Hes not a cunt, he seems sincere, and the last song was great. I would love to hear him sing more!! FUCKING DAVID DUCHOVNY!!!! In this light, you know who he resembles right? Truly an inspiration and could not be more proud. What a champ!
I agree the last one is really good. But he should let someone else sing it, not sure hitting the keys is something you can practice. Yes he is very inspiring, that's true. I feel proud of him too!
+Sonja Holm Yes you can practice it ;)
+Sonja Holm lol yeah you can ☺️ practice is what makes great artists . That and passion.
His songs are fantastic
Well color me impressed, didn't know David Duchovny had such a great voice!
+aliensarerealancient Are you serious?
+Joe Smith Yes I am... I love the sound of his speaking voice but I had never heard him sing.
aliensarerealancient
It's the same thing. Are you sure your sound is working?
+Joe Smith LOL! I'm a huge xfiles fan. But this . . .
Yeah I love his voice too
I just want to say , no one is "born" with talent . People are born with passion , work on what they love doing , and get good.
It's strange to see Mr. Moody wearing white
the one singing is not david, it is hank ahahahahahaha
Ha! I was there in the second row. He was very sweet and autographed his book and took a picture with me.
Way to go Fox.. I mean David!! :) Much love from Finland! You do have a unique voice and I like it. Keep it up David! This was some good session from you guys, funny and full of emotion from music. I thank you.
David!!!! Muito bom!!! Sua música é especial!!!!
beautiful performance by handsome man
"you can build your life on empty promises, or with a man who promises to try."
Truly inspirational!
I wouldn't choose software developers as audience, btw ;)
31:10 He's going to do six episodes of Mulder! AND HE CAN SING! Geez. What a man.
He's doing it!
Embarrassing kids is a parent's duty :) Pushing the personal boundaries what can be done and being an example.... I bet his kids are quietly very proud.
que buen album!
Adoro demais
Not bad. If people are actually born to be something, a musician, dechovany was not. But still, giving it a try and sounding relatively cool is nice. Also, these lyrics in the hands of someone with a better ear and touch for music could make something special. And I understand the want to venture into different mediums of self expression. The dude is a talented actor and when some of that creativity that cannot be expressed through his characters, you look for something else. It's an innate need in the life of an artist.
Is he a talented actor? I've seen the X-files and a few episodes of Californication. Never thought he acted so well. Without the great chemistry between him and Anderson I'm not sure he would have made it. Always missed something there, more authenticity.
Lmao well he's no Brando, but I think he's very good in the roles casted for him and he has played large variety of characters.
+Joshua Levinsky He just released an album and he's going on a European tour. Bucket list I guess?
i totally think its a smart comment and agree almost with all of it, but you miss the point that making music doesnt require you to be that talent, i suck at singing i have a barking dog voice but i sing all the time, i guess this is what its about. as long as i catch the feeling i dont care about how good your voice is or your playing is
Life As A Human, I agree with you 100% and have proselytized that exact sentiment. Sorry if it sounded as if I have a certain "standard" for all musicians to meet. I myself am a musician and -not to toot my own horn- have been praised highly in my local music scene, though I cannot sing and I like sloppy grunge guitar. I believe being a talented singer has absolutely 0 to do with your range or whatever else, it has to do with the feeling your voice singing certain words, in a certain melody evokes. Hopefully it's a visceral emotional response.
One of my top 5 musicians...its like Hank Moody went on to do Music
Also love Brad Davidson's dog stories!
He has a very nice voice...but his singing, well. He wasn't born to be a singer. But I like the lyrics and the music and it's brave of him to try it out. I think he could make it as a lyricist.
+Sonja Holm I've been to the concert yesterday and to be honest, I didn't expect much of it. But, really, it was much better than I thought. Actually, it was rather good. And it was fun.
I really like the last song, "Hell or Highwater". His voice reminds me of Stephen Malkmus (Pavement). It suits him, though. Quite impressed.
i like it.
Sounds really great :)
Duchovny 4ever!
wow! his voice is seriously good!
+Wiggy McCrackin Is this satire?
+Joe Smith I was actually serious
Yes his voice is good. His singing talent less so. Two different things.
It needs work , but it is definitely a great start ✨
What are you people hearing in saying this is good??? Are you running this audio feed through some kind of computer to make it something different than I am hearing? If this singing is good I am quitting my job tomorrow and going on tour. Yikes!
AND he's a singer? Jesus. He's so fing hot.
It's awesome Spooky Mulder became a singer
brilliant! ! !
Wow!
aww, David.❤
whats the name of first song pls help me, its wonderful but i cant find it
Darude Sandstorm
+Alperen Taha It's called 3000
I think he sounds dope
This would have been much better with Gillian Anderson on backing vocals. ;)
Gandalf the Great White *_LOL_*
To anyone interested: bfy.tw/EuD
Lol yeah it would have
sounds like someone singing along to another song quietly, not really sure of themselves or the lyrics. I like him though, but his voice was always kind of monochromatic even as an actor.
Hey David, what you need is a costume. Put on a black cowboy hat and some black jeans with maybe a black cotton shirt with a collar and rolled up sleeves. Perhaps a red ruby ring on yellow gold, and there you go. A cool lookin dude like you ought to make the most of your presence. It's a turn on to have a gimmick.
I just want to hear him yell........ *S C U L L Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y Y*
or Karen.
He's seems to be about an average-ish(?) singer, but I really love his voice so there's that.
its a some mystery in this voice ,,,
He may not be the best singer, but he has a good voice. I think if he had training (or more if he had any) like a lot of singers usually might it could be better.
hes not a "singer" but he can "sing", like his voice is definitely listenable atleast. Like I cant sing if i even tried.
But aint nothing wrong with doing a different thing like there was nothing stopping him from making an album so why not who wouldnt want to? XD I dont think it was an act of I want to be a singer but more of a creative outlet.
(I havent watched the whole video yet though so if he says anything that contradicts what ive said then oops)
in a word "crap" reminds me of that nerd from starsky and hutch, can't even remember his name, now that says something lol
He told me once he wished he could sing! I agree with him, he does not have the best voice, BUT he did compose and write those strange and meaningful lyrics, based on true experiences. Kinda prefer the rock versions on the album to '3000' & 'Hell Or Highwater' though. The one I least like is 'When The Time Comes' and my favourite isn't on here - 'Unsaid Undone' which kicks arse!
Kelly J Devoe called...
He has to act a lot more when he´s singing, otherwise .... well otherwise read the whole comments below. Passion is missing David, just act and sing and it will work.
Starts at 4:38 that guy wont stfu
Fantastic actor, average singer.
You are too kind! LOL
Истина где то рядом Мокс Фалдер
His voice just doesn't cut it. He'd better stick to songwriting and let somebody sing his stuff.
maemía
I would pay to see his band $5, more than that I would feel ripped off
I would pay $20.00 but only if they gave me a $50.00 bar tab to get plastered on. At that point the music might actually start to sound good.
I prefer him acting....
Чего он вдруг запел-то? Снимался бы лучше в продолжении Секретных материалов!
Oh...dear.
Sorry I didn't get it. Pretty out of tune. But hats off to him as an actor. Plus, a really cool guy.
I think it's great he tried something different but I don't like it.
Idgaf if you dont like it. I like it and other one two so shut up
Wow...this is God awful. David, don't give up your acting gig.
Now I see where Becca gets that horrible voice from...
David's infallible
Love this guy, but holy shit this is dreadful.
Audience looks bored to hell.
Venser as usual...americans !
+huhuruz77 Googlers...
Nah.
Canta horrible, mejor que actue.
Gee, I can't help but this is too boring.
Zzzzz...Zzzzzzz
:D
David Duchovny X files 2021, you are not a singer
Can we honestly say that David Duchovny's "Hell or High Water" (the song) isn't the most stupid nonsensical boring pathetic song ever? I mean it is fascinatingly bad! "I can't turn this shit storm we're in to some rainbow sun shower of holy red wine."
What? What the fuck does that mean? "Rainbow sun shower of holy red wine?" I understand that it's supposed to signify some positive metaphor but that has got to be the worst writing I've ever seen! It's laughable! I enjoy David Duchovny but oh my God. He "arranged" the songs, meaning someone else did that while he supervised it most likely. I mean he can sort of play the guitar, that's all he can do musically other than "sing." This is proof that the hobbies of the rich and famous are better to be kept in their large basements where no one can see them.
Samuel Schild Your drivel is based on a misheard lyric. The correct verse is: "And I can't turn this shitstorm we're in into some rainbow, sunshower or holy red wine."
Oh thank you so much Miguel for correcting me. It sounds way more sophisticated that way.
That is EXACTLY what he said other than combining shitstorm into shit storm and sunshower into sun shower. WTF point are you trying to make? The lyrics you typed are just as pathetic as the ones Samuel typed. Shit is shit. No matter how you rearrange the words it still smells like shit.
