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.
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
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 😳
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. 🙌
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.
Ever since you released Think About Things at Eurovision, I’ve been a massive fan of your work. Your fans adore you and we will always support you. You are amazing
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 🙂
"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
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❤🙏💕👨👩👦🏡
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.
I was introduced to your music for the first time through Hank Green. I love the fun, light-hearted stuff you create! I also love the deeper more emotional. Hank and John also talk a lot about fame and I have the utmost respect for those doing their best to navigate it. This video was so well-done. You’re doing a good job!
Wow! That was fantastic! I love the song so much, but the video, along with the lyrics, was a piece of performance art. Thank you for actual substance both musically and visually. 🤙
This is one of those things that really makes me miss the left hand I lost in 1997. I would have loved to have been able to do the wormfingers when I saw him live recently. Instead I wear the T-shirt from the video as much as possible.
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 👩🏻🎨👏🤩
You’re so much more than the finger worm and a trend, sir! May your music transcend the fickleness of trends and fads. ❤️ With a baseline like that, I have no doubt!
Agreed, you are changing lives. You are making life that bit easier and brighter for so many people all over the world. Me included, thank you. You are beautiful ❤️🙏
Dadi, people may start with Think About Things, people may always expect to hear it at a show, but all your music is just beautiful. You have an excellent voice, you’re an excellent writer, your unique sense of humor and personality shine in ALL your songs. You may be exhausted, you may deal with imposter syndrome, but I’m one among many many many thousands of people whose heart and mind were touched by your art. Be well! Prosper! We’ll always be rooting for ya!
@Dadi Freyr, i respect that you're not going to change who you are for fame. I also still love your Mixophrygian music! Your old music shouldn't be hidden 💞
Wow I usually listen to music while multitasking (working or cleaning), but this one stopped me in my tracks. I just watched and listened. I love it so much.
Dadi, it makes me so happy to witness how your music is evolving. The sound was so full and the choral singing with yourself was such a pleasure to listen to! Also I hope your finger move will become a new tiktok trend lol its such a little gesture but receives such a big meaning in your heartfelt video. You're an amazing artist! Keep up the amazing work you do but please make sure to take breaks and all the rest you need, my friend! ❤
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
i hear a bit of "Where I Wanna Be" in the chorus, which is very cool. As usual, sir, you are truly off the deep end, and I LOVE EVERY SECOND OF IT! WOO HOO!
Thank you for more music! I am LOVING THE NEW ALBUM! This song, and Sometimes are already my two favorites. My partners favorite is Sunshine 🌞. From another socially awkward musician, with a lower baritone voice, I can't even begin to explain how much Dadi Freyrs content resonates with me. I've always been told I have the perfect voice for blues, RNB, rock, but my heart belongs to electronic and pop. Dadi your music gives me so much hope and inspiration to follow my soul and to be my authentic self. Lots of love from 2 small town Canadians! ❤️🇨🇦
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.
Yet again another great track that i feel reflects how im feeling, first week in a new job after a long career break and a really difficult and life changing few years. Thank you Daði ❤
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".
I waited to listen to this because every artist changes sounds between albums. I was honestly a little worried that I wouldn't like whatever direction Daði Freyr went. It's definitely a little different, but I love it. Preordered the album. A little darker, a little more pensive, but still funky and groovy with great stories to tell.
So..the first time of seeing I wasn’t completely sold. Then listened to the track on Spotify and returned to watch again. Love it! See more each time. I think it’s a brilliant production.
You'd kick ass no matter what you decided to do with your time, Dadi. We're all just glad you choose to spend it by making some of the best damn music I've heard in over a decade. Thanks for that, man. You seem like a really good dude. Lookin' forward to seeing you again when you're state-side.
All song are absolutely delightful. Come visit the US, West Coast, Portland and we’ll be in the front row ready to rock with lots of Love and Big ol’ Smiles. 🤗
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.
Exactly:D
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.
I think he uses his fame to the best of his ability. His songs are so relatable, honest and encourage good self-care. Couldn't love this man more :)

Or maybe this is what he is best at. This is amazing and the kind of music I love to listen too.
I love when artists go out of their "Normal"
I bet you fencing duracel during the whole management, this reaches me to still-carbonayed thrill, make more but more about off God and Godness
I would love to see Dadi and David Byrne collab. They are two musical, artistic souls who should meet and make shit together.
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?
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 😳

Well done, Daði, very well done. 🙌
You worded this perfectly!
Crazy world we live in.
Wonderful commentary on fame. I hope Dadi has never felt this way. He is definitely not a one trick pony.
Great song and amazing video - great summary of the concept of viral trends. Also love the cameo of Jan Böhmermann at 2:03
I was looking for this comment. Had to be sure. Great song, great video. Love this!
And also Hank Green at 1:52
That was a smart move from Daði! Great video concept, great song! 🤩
I love the concept of wormfinger too
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. ❤
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
yeah like he feels like a one trick pony, but he has so much more to offer hes such an amazing musician
hes still doing the same thing hes always done but its being recieved differently
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.
This is definitely going to be the best song ever
I disagree, have you heard his next song?
🙌🏻

Ever since you released Think About Things at Eurovision, I’ve been a massive fan of your work. Your fans adore you and we will always support you. You are amazing
Me too! I love his music and he seems to be able to create songs I really feel an affinity to ❤👌👌

Concordo
Pride of İceland,we want to see you back at next year's Eurovision.Keep bringing us joy.Good thing the world has a talent like you.
I feel comfortable to listen every song from him. Haven't been disappointed yet
I already love this song. Its gonna be the hit of the summer! Thank you, Dadi. Greetings from Mexico ❤
"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
Daði always treats us with the sweetest moves ❤
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❤🙏💕👨👩👦🏡

I was so happy to see Hank in the video doing the worm thing. That was a well thought out cameo
Random Böhmermann in a Daði Music Video, didn't expect that one 😅
So are we back to the times where music videos were amazing? remembers me of the MTV era - great music and fun video
Love it! 😀 Is that Hank Green trying the wormfinger on Daði's phone at 1:52?!
I love your music, Dadi!
And I loved Hank Greens's little cameo.
The cameo is around 1:51 - 1:52
@@simprophet Thank you for the timestamp! I was looking for it and still missed it!
Wow! That was fantastic! I love the song so much, but the video, along with the lyrics, was a piece of performance art. Thank you for actual substance both musically and visually. 🤙
This is a profound and accurate version of The Artist Journey and the perils of viral "fame" as a creator! I adore him (and what a voice!!!!)
Hoping he and the crew never change
This is one of those things that really makes me miss the left hand I lost in 1997. I would have loved to have been able to do the wormfingers when I saw him live recently. Instead I wear the T-shirt from the video as much as possible.
Głosowałam na Was na Eurowizji. Muzyka świetna. Dadi masz piękny głos
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.
This is an absolute masterpiece, great cinematography!! ♥♥♥
This is going to be epic, I’m so excited

@Dadi Freyr, i respect that you're not going to change who you are for fame. I also still love your Mixophrygian music! Your old music shouldn't be hidden 💞
Since I first heard "Think about Things" I knew that your music would always be my favorite.
Takk 🙏
I've been using this move with the ladies for years!!! First you pray, then the Cross, then twist... and then worm!!!
This man has a beautiful mind and the best platform to display his ideas and talents. 💙 I think he has the ability to go far with the right support.
Great Song! And a fingerwormdance for Böhmis apperance!
Wow I usually listen to music while multitasking (working or cleaning), but this one stopped me in my tracks. I just watched and listened. I love it so much.
the song itself is amazing, but the the MV it's just so perfect

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

С элегантностью присущей только Дади. Ждем еще шедевров ❤
Dude you are a great artist, very profeccional video too, cheers from Colombia 🇨🇴
I love how your music videos always tell a story like this! Thank you so much
Loved the video, congrats to all the people who made it :D
omg. This MV needs to win some awards. This whole production is oozing with talent 🔥🔥 Also, that broken finger 😂
What a talent you are dadi, I am 65 and love your work its just brilliant
Yet again another great track that i feel reflects how im feeling, first week in a new job after a long career break and a really difficult and life changing few years. Thank you Daði ❤

You are a musical genius. I'm going to be rocking out to your tunes all summer, as will everyone else!
Amazing song and amazing video. Congrats Daði!!!!
This video feels like a director's cut on Modern Way by Kaiser Chiefs. Great job!
hope i can make it to the concery on the 2nd of septemeber...
Didn't expect to see Jan Böhmermann in this. Random, but not bad, at all.
Honestly love that you took the "worm finger" and used it as such an important part of the video's story
Love it ❤
Truly one of my favourite singers ever with the best moves 🎉
I love it again! How funny and deep your song is. Very nice sounds. Your voice is amazing. What a great artist!
I love it, always be yourself!
I'm so in love with this one damn, each morning when I start to work, I listen this, Thanks dadi to create amazing song, love from France

That's going to be stuck in my head for a while. Great video too 👍🏻
I love it!! With your very personal tone of voice and that original way of understanding and making music, you gained a following from Spain.
Love it. Love you. Love your music!!! ❤❤❤
He can do no wrong. Know I'll be listening to this on loop
As an musician…. This sound have to be everywhere! Great work, this is art 😍!
He's a genius. Addictive
I loved John Green's brother cameo!
Amazing video!! You are truly an artist.
You all tried doing the wormfinger while watching the video. Confess.
NO WAY you got Böhmermann for the video!!!
I can't imagine how my music world existed before i have heard your songs for the very first time. ❤
You are that 1 golden ball in humanity.
