This guy deserves more recognition.

No one seems to mention the beautiful voice of his backup singer. She too is amazing!

In 2010 I met Dan and asked him who that incredible bg singer is. He said he couldn't remember. Hmmm. That is not a vocalist you forget. She should have her own career as a lead.

The singer is probably Amy Arsenault as she is listed as vocalist via Wikipedia.

because its rude. dont be an a hole and just enjoy my dude

I'm so happy this song exists.

2007 was forever ago. Wow. So now I'm not lonely lonely, but old *and* lonely. Who says you can't grow without trying? We've come so far, boys.

who can dislike this song? seriously? dan, i think you are a very talented human being. i can't stop playing your song on guitar, it's like it's automatic now. i downloaded it this when it was the free itunes single of the week and just fell in love with the riff. so thank you for coming out with this amazing song!

Dan , Come back in Montreal ... or I'll have to move back to Vancouver and go out every week to your shows ... Well I wouldn't mind at all doing this .. ;)

Where has this song been all of my life?!?!

BEARD!! Nice to see a non primped up male Vocalist. Great song, great voice. Vancouver and now even Canada's indy sweetheart.

first song that I heard of him, and I listen to him everyday. I had only heard him for about a week and he was already on my top ten. Why isnt he famous yet!!!!!! Everybody who I have showed him to has loved him. And I mean everybody

The first song I ever heard of yours and I was a fan for life. One of the most beautiful songs ever written. Saw you play many times in Vancouver solo...have every album now and am happy to watch you grow and look forward to the new album...uberbelly

@@danmanganmusic 17 years! since I first saw you at Trees on Granville, lol. time flies. living a quiet life with my pup in White Rock. Come play the beach next summer!

I have bought an NME music magazine years ago with Canadian blast, Dan's song was on the CD. wonderful, brilliant, I loved the song from the first hearing, thumbs up :-)

How can you dislike this? Even if were just three people! Seriously what is there to dislike? I don't get it...

His voice is beautiful. It makes me want to cry evertime I hear this song. He has such amazing talent.

Ya he did! It was fantastic, he had the entire crowd standing and singing along!

its not selfish, its for the love of the art -- as much as you may feel its a selfish statement, look at those who have the spotlight. no one wants to be that thing, that picture frame, owned by its label and morphed by social media to fit an image. im sure dan is very happy where he is now. and so are we, lets all just be happy for the way things are.

Beautiful song brother

Oh by far... did he perform Robots for you? When I saw him perform, for the entire duration of that song the crowd was captivated and singing along. It was amazing, considering a great deal of the crowd, (myself included) hadn't even heard the song before.

This is my favorite song.. I can't even imagine how a song could be better than this

Dan won't ever change.

I did meet him! i got to do an interview with him and everything! he's such a cool guy! Dan ya gotta come to kamloops man!

This is so amazing. The first time I herd of Dan Mangan was at the movie theater and they had a preview of him, I am so glad I was actually paying attention. I think that this is so beautiful, we need more talented Canadians like him. c:

Perhaps I'm naïve, but I don't think fame is as likely to affect Dan as most artists. The way he reacts to interviews and analyzes his own work -without hubris or illusions- leads me to believe he'll continue to be an insightful individual - one, who will continue to almost compulsively seek to improve his work, and never believe that it's perfect. If you look at his progression from his first album, to his current ones, you'll notice he is not becoming shallower with fame, rather the opposite.

i get this song, beautiful, intricate, characteristic of greatness

in the making by a beautiful canadian musician!!!

This is still my favorite song. ever.

You just know the people who accidentally disliked this song are saying, "I'm sorry." Seriously. God I love his music! He is in my top five fave artists/bands.. Mumford and Sons just beats him though. lol.

He's so great! Saw him in Winnipeg over the weekend! I'd say he's even better live.

i've seen him in a private concert few days ago and it wAS SO GOOD!! he had play some new song and it was magic!

I got chills listening to this... so powerful and beautiful! Love Dan Mangan, get to see him on July 8th!

I saw him twice live too, Soooo Good !

Words cant describe how amazing this man is!

does stuff to me i can't explain!! no words really........

It's been a while but it's still as good as the first time :)

Amazing feeling in the poetry & lyrics. Thank you, Dan.

he needs to be on grey's anatomy

How we're all in so DEE-EEE-EEE-EEEP. Yes.

this is such a beautiful song.

@OlimpicChamp3 The most famous are those who, even with fame will never change and thus always stand out. So, I wish he was famous too.

Dan, love your stuff since the Keltec and Mangan days on Proton.

@RaDiOpLaYandBeCk I agree. I saw him twice in show and he's amazing!

I want to sing with Dan Mangan...

Love.

such beautiful, raw, music. amazing guitar playing as well.

we are all wating for your new albums dan :)

ahh vancouver buses... I'm going to go see him this saturday :)

Why isn't there a "love" button?

Thank you.

he must have come there right after he was here... i saw him on friday!!

2:23 Wow, buses in vancouver have really changed. I cant believe they used to be red

Beautiful song ;)

No, no its not easy, and I am always sorry. Maybe that's just Canadian, always feeling sorry.

Saw him 3 times :) At Camp Trois-Saumon twice and at Pont-Rouge! :D

Anyone here in 2024?

i can't beleive he's from vancouver bc! a home boy! my own home!!! weewt! fucking love ya man, all the best. Cheers

I have a dilemma on my hands now. Is Basket, Robots or Journal of a Narcoleptic my new favourite song? Decisions, Decisions!

sooo handsome!\

Nicely done. I will put your music in a film someday. If you like.

@RaDiOpLaYandBeCk he's playing in UK in october , maybe that will help him to be known worldwide

why is it not available...?? it's so beautiful :(

2018 any one? This song is just sooo g0od

such a cutie :)

entering da in the searchbar...getting david guetta crap...entering dan...still nothing ...entering dan mang. NOTHING... Thats just not right. Need to spread this music a little to my friends ;) Do this too folks.

my soul is raped and tortured by the pain of heartache. perpetually forever alone: I die inside.

can anyone work out the tab for this and post it to me. it would be most apprieciated. x

Where in Argentina?

@OlimpicChamp3 Hipster.

Seth... Rogan..?

does anybody know the chord proggresion for this song?

I want text for it.

i'm sorry. but it ain't easy.

Emo Ed Sheeran.

i love Dan Mangan, but i don't really like this song

maybe it's because for all his great guitar-picking he sings too slow, and it gets people bored
