This is really pertinent. After his massive viral success of Think About Things, I can completely understand where this song has come from. Dadi, your fans adore you- don’t worry, we’ll always support you, no matter if you need to take a break. I’ve seen the imposter syndrome in a few of your songs. You’re amazing. ❤

Dadi reminds me of Bo Burnham. Absolutely hilarious, amazing music, humble, and a rise to fame that has to be incredibly hard to handle reflected in their music. I hope he's doing well, and hope we continue getting new masterpieces to enjoy

So you went to the concert? When and where was it?

Leave it to Daði to create a beautiful story as well as a great song. Really speaks for artists who get stuck being known for only one thing.

And the fickleness of fame too: "woo, this is great!" "no, this is wrong, it's corrupting the youth and toxic" "it turns out it's criminal?" and following that trend down. Fame is BS and shouldn't be pursued (though if you get it, do the best with it hopefully), because people think they own you and know you. So anything you say or do is subjected to extra scrutiny and can make or break you.

What a great track, and the video is a perfect mirror for how the world (and the media) will reduce you down to a single characteristic, put you on a pedestal for it, then tear you down for the same thing, until you start to lose your love for the thing that brought you joy to begin with.. Well done, Daði, very well done. 🙌

the song that perfectly captures how the sudden fame reduces you to just being known for one thing and ultimately getting tired of said one thing and finally breaking free 😳

Kinda feels like this is a story about the build up and life after he released “think about things” with the dance? Or is it just me

Wonderful commentary on fame. I hope Dadi has never felt this way. He is definitely not a one trick pony.

Dadi is positioning himself as a heir to the likes of New Order, giants that engineered beautiful dance music around lyrics that deal with very serious topics. ❤

I love the tune! But what I love most, is the authenticity and apparent kindness of Dadi. Creative, smart, kind and genuine. It makes watching your success so sweet and delicious. I love watching you succeed.

Love the song! The video was beautifully done, too. You have an incredible talent for songwriting and I hope it brings you joy. You have created a lovely community here and whether you release 50 more albums or none, you've given us some awesome music.

Random Böhmermann in a Daði Music Video, didn't expect that one 😅

Daði Freyr you’re not only the guy who does funny moves. You’re an amazing musician with an immense knowledge of the music as element. I love every video you make doing music. I love your voice and I love your lyrics. Keep up the good work. Side note, in Italy a lot of people loves your music 🙂

I feel comfortable to listen every song from him. Haven't been disappointed yet

In addition to the concept of an artist being distilled down to a single thing, this song, as I experience it, is also a commentary on the relentless expenditure of effort that is required to keep pace with and stay ahead of the all consuming and fickle mass of humanity and market, regardless of scale, while trying to maintain one's creative form and integrity alongside the want to simply sit back and take a moment for yourself. I love every single solitary bit of this song.

"Moves To Make" Daði Freyr I could take some sleep I could go lie down I'm in so deep A little broken now I would love to close my eyes But I've got moves to make There's so much going on inside my head The smallest things can make me cry When I blink I see flashes of my bed Can't wait to give it a try And though I wouldn't change this for the world Take me to higher ground take me higher Feel kind of like an oyster with no pearl Take me to higher ground I could take some sleep I could go lie down Week after week It's a constant sound I would love to close my eyes But I've got moves to make I could take some sleep I could go lie down I'm in so deep A little broken now I would love to close my eyes But I've got moves to make I've got moves to make There is so much to do So many things too little time Trying not to miss out on anything Take me to higher ground take me higher Whatever it is I'll take a swing Take me to higher ground I could take some sleep I could go lie down Week after week It's a constant sound I would love to close my eyes But I've got moves to make I could take some sleep I could go lie down I'm in so deep A little broken now I would love to close my eyes But I've got moves to make I got moves to make I got moves to make I got moves to make Cuz let's be honest we're singing this 24 hrs a day

I already love this song. Its gonna be the hit of the summer! Thank you, Dadi. Greetings from Mexico ❤

So are we back to the times where music videos were amazing? remembers me of the MTV era - great music and fun video

Daði always treats us with the sweetest moves ❤

My work regularly plays Daði Freyr songs through the store. It's awesome.

Great Song! And a fingerwormdance for Böhmis apperance!

It was good the first time... The second time, a solid hit!.. but the third time? Bangarang!

Fantastic music and thought provoking video.🎉 Hope you are getting a chance to close your eyes now after all your hard work. Thank you so much for all the joy you have brought in your music. Keep on enjoying all the important things in life. Big up the little things❤🙏💕👨‍👩‍👦🏡

This is going to be epic, I’m so excited

This should be made into a full movie

Funnily enough, a tweet from Jan Böhmermann ( German satirist, journalist, podcast/tv host) lead me into my obsession with Dadi, way before his first planned performance at the esc 2020 / 2021. Seeing him in this video (02:04) is a full circle moment for me :D

Głosowałam na Was na Eurowizji. Muzyka świetna. Dadi masz piękny głos

Love all the little nuances you put into your videos. Lifting your face to get make up and being left🥹 All the expression you convey in a really small shift in expression and body language.Particularly in Sabada. Music , dancing and acting! Each time you watch you see or hear another detail.Thank you so much for sharing your talent 👩🏻‍🎨👏🤩

This is an absolute masterpiece, great cinematography!! ♥♥♥

I loved John Green's brother cameo!

Saw him recently on Eurovision-true performer..

i cant live without this man

This video feels like a director's cut on Modern Way by Kaiser Chiefs. Great job!

It has been so amazing to watch Daði's videos increase in quality, with beautiful camerawork and more attention to detail. Amazing work as always.

2:03 Glückwunsch Herr Böhmermann!

You all tried doing the wormfinger while watching the video. Confess.

I did that movement as a child. My grandma taught me that!!❤❤👍👏

He's a genius. Addictive

I discovered your music because a friend and i, were talking about iceland, and for no reason youtube brought me to you. I appreciate the algorithm from google a lot hahaha.

Honestly love that you took the "worm finger" and used it as such an important part of the video's story

NO WAY you got Böhmermann for the video!!!

2:05 holy Jan Böhmermann, nice surprise ❤

the song itself is amazing, but the the MV it's just so perfect

1:51 Hank Green timestamp, fellow nerdfighters

Did not expect to be reminded of my grandpa this way, who passed away in early 2022. He taught me this exact finger movement when I was like four years old probably? Called it "ringing bells".

Absolute banger.

Perfection, as always!

This is so true

What a great song ♡ and I love your moves

Pls Iceland send him again to Eurovision im obssesed 😍
