My favorite song at the moment, masterpiece. Bought the new CD before a flight yesterday and this song brought me into a totally other place. This man is a genius.

[@kevinharris7642]

Just heard him perform this song on Comedy Bang Bang. Holy shit, what a talent.

[@andrewfaulkner8203]

[@TheSonicSqueeze]

We just reviewed this album: ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! And what a great performance this is!

[@ChristineJSmith16]

My new favorite song and one of John Grant's finest.

[@robyberis3108]

One of the greatest poets of our century , I love everything that has composed . Long live John Grant !

[@mrgeminis2549]

incredible, what a voice

[@morgan300c]

I wish more of the album was more in this vain. He is an under appreciated genius.

[@davidnyholm8796]

I heard him say in an interview that this song is about getting perspective on things and the song "global warming" is about not having perspective. Great songs, great lyrics, the most amazing voice you can think of and on top of that a nice and gentle person I believe.. All bets are off..Grant is outstanding!

[@SuperBowiegirl]

He is amazing!

[@jeffmusgrave3691]

Это поосто шикарно!!!!

[@marshallbrooksmusic]

I can't tell if he's angry, sad or indifferent, but he's sure got a way with words.

+Marshall Jewell
He's having a whinge. A rather eloquent and humorous whinge about things that are bothering him.
It does occur to him however he doesn't necessarily have that much to whinge about considering - 'there are children who have cancer' (he cant compete with that).

[@spikejoseph5482]

It's because he has HIV and he literally cannot compete with them

[@ayoncarmelle4106]

an ja di biséy! miam.

[@TiberiusStorm]

I find his lyrics a little awkward but other than that I enjoy his music.

[@keysersoze4322]

I love the awkwardness - it's refreshing in a way imo.

[@afretfuldevil5582]

This is my first listen to the guy (I'm loving it) and I think the awkwardness is the best part. Haha.
