Music video by Augie March performing One Crowded Hour. TH-cam view counts pre-VEVO: 8,555 (C) 2006 SONY BMG MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT (AUSTRALIA) PTY LIMITED
I am unsure whether most people get the literary reference here... "Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife, Throughout the sensual world proclaim, One crowded hour of glorious life Is worth an age without a name." - Thomas Osbert Mordaunt (1730-1809) And so... as heartbroken as our hero is... the world is STILL a better place for having loved than not. Yes?
Whow, I was listening to Johny Depp and he recommended this band Augie March and this particular song, One Crowded Hour. I fell in love with it from the first line if the song. Its amazingly beautiful, romantic and sad. I absolutely love this song and band, now I'm a big fan. Thankyou so much Johny Depp. N.F.T. love and respect. Yours truly. Xxxx.
My parents have been split for 2 years and mum told me today “I still love this song, your dad and I got married to this song”, been listening to it all afternoon and every time I listen to it I sob
I came from Johnny Depp! who too? 😊❤ I totally agree with Johnny!✊💗 This song...voice...beautiful! Mr.Depp listens to excellent music, and I was convinced of this for the hundredth time!!!💞 #JusticeForJohnnyDepp !!!
@@michawnme yeah i belive so,there was a ask me anything on johnny depps discord and he recomended this song to the person asking the question and i think this is them(u can find the ama on youtube if u want, there s a bunch of cool questions that johnny answered) :]
I first heard this song in the earth hour 2009 ... Literaly 10 years ago... I was in middle school. It was when I fell in love for the first time in my life... I remember the boy's name. After all those years I just had the guts to tell him how I felt. It didn't end up in anything... But I can just feel I was brave enough.... And this song is still with me. It remembers me him. It still feels good tough...
I've been loving this band for years and for the life of me can't understand how they aren't more popular... The fact that the crap on the radio get's played and this doesn't makes me a little crazy.
Don't be that dumb guy that has no idea how to use an apostrophe. Basic English dude, use your brain. Apostrophes denote possession or missing letters in contracted words. Gets is gets, that's it (ie. that is = that's). Only idiots think it doesn't matter.
John Cole Please, in great detail, tell me how I failed to make my point plain. If the purpose of language is to convey a message and grammar simply a set of rules to help make language more clear - how was I unclear? Given an ever evolving language, how do you know you're right? I have the right to take creative license with anything I write and you acting like some pedantic asswipe can't change that. What is the appropriate etiquette, concerning grammar on a youtube thread? It seems open for debate at best. You seem to have an inferiority complex that yearns for the approval of other and the incessant need to claim you are right. Sad really. You talk about intelligence and all I hear is hubris.
John Cole Guess we will have to agree to disagree. You are not right and I'm not going to try to convince you of anything. Please feel free to write a nice diatribe about how I'm wrong in my assertion.
Amazing song that makes its lyrics become one with the music. Maybe the most beautiful Australian song I've ever heard. Listening to it is just musical magic.
@@TerraRiderAdventures I remember when Earth Hour was a thing but I never actually understood or enjoyed it when it was on and now when I'd love nothing more then to see the Stars it sadly just doesn't exist anymore.
I just heard this on the radio. I remember really not liking this song, but I just realised how many levels this has, and what an amazing piece of composing this is.
Here bcuz #JohnnyDepp mentioned you guys!! I have posted your music on my facebook a couple of times & will do it again! #JohnnyDepp is the BEST! He is always wanting others to live their dreams too, he is an amazing man!! Have a blessed day/night! 😊✌
This song is amazing. I hope they play this song in the theatre act with filming they are currently making in Tasmania - about the life of Neil Davis. I am grateful to have the privilege to take part in the filming and making the project.
@@thedcmac Yeah I feel like that might have happened before...usually though I just wait around for an actor to speak pearls of wisdom for my collection
I don't know Wayne, but anyone listening to Augie March for any reason is a fuckin legend. " Put me in a cage full of lions, I'll learn to speak lion."
hated it back then because my brother played it endlessly. Saw them live when they supported Crowded House, they stuffed up about 30 seconds into 1 crowded hour and just started all over again lol.
When Johnny recommended this song to me he wasn't wrong when he said it's amazing, it's my favorite song at the moment, and whenever I hear this song I remember him.
Grow your heart, soul and spirit always, the meat suit will decay, and die, but no word of lie, the light and love you grow within, regardless of your wrongs or sin, goes forth in light, with right and true, and this will be the eternal you.
I’ve been listening to this song for ages and to come back and see all the comments talking about Johnny Depp and some bloke called Wayne is AMAZING! No gatekeepers here! Welcome everyone ❤
Should you expect to see something that you hadn't seen In somebody you'd known since you were sixteen If love is a bolt from the blue, Then what is that bolt but a glorified screw That doesn't hold nothing together? Far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music It's making me sick and I know it's making you sick There's nothing there; it's like eating air It's like drinking gin with nothing else in That doesn't hold me together But for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin Now I know you like your boys to take their medicine From the bowl with a silver spoon Who run away with the dish and scale the fish By the silvery light of the moon Who were taught from the womb to believe to the tune In as far as their bleeding eyes see It's a pleasure pen, meant for them, built for and rent for them Not for the likes of me Not for the like of you and me And for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin Oh but the green-eyed harpy of the song land She takes into hers my hand She says, "Boy I know you're lying Oh but then, so am I, " And to that I said "Oh well" They put me in a cage full of lions, I learned to speak lion In fact I know the language well I picked it up while I was versing myself in the languages They speak in hell That night, the silence gave birth to a baby They took it away to her silent dismay And they raised it to be lady Now she can't keep her mouth shut For one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin One crowded hour, you were the only one in the room Well I played a few songs for those bumps in the night In fact I played this very tune You said, "What is this six-stringed instrument but an adolescent loom?" And one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
Nice work👍Couple of corrections: The Green eyed harpy of the salt land.... Who were taught from the womb to believe to the tomb.... Augie lyrics are tough to get down, people have done whole Uni thesis on them
The day I watched this on TV an seen this young girl sing every word of this song to the performer as he sung,with nothing in her eyes but this man did it for me
"One crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name" Mordaunt. Tim Bowden used this quote to reference Neil Davis and his incredible photojournalism in SE Asia in the sixties, seventies indeed till 1985 and his death... shot in BKK covering a coup. Whether most readers here know it or not they have seen some of Davis' work but not lived a crowded minute in contrast to his life and the crowded hour referred to here.
And the sad part about his death is that the coup didn't actually happen...it was an Asian fuck up that took the life of an amazingly talented photojournalist who loved the country he was working in. I read the book and it inspired me to take that quote as my personal aim in life. Sound sound the clarion, fill the fife, throughout the sensual world proclaim, one crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name...Thomas Osbert Mordaunt (1730-1809) He was a soldier and a poet.
T Ryan supposedly a "bloodless coup" I'm sure Mr. Davis would disagree with that description. I read the book and he was one hell of a man. One crowded hour of glorious life...has become the mantra I live by since reading of his life and what he achieved
Margaret, I think the mantra you have referred to twice and also the the reason why many visit, is a wonderful way to live life. We have the locus of the quote, and the memorable ways in which it has been deployed by others to excel and celebrate the human condition. Fill your life full, readers. However, I will stop briefly to say, Neil's view on the coups he saw are better saved for forums where we can flesh out the histories. Christopher Koch is worth following up for those who like a great historical read on this, 'Highways to a War'. Awesome book.
I think this is a perfect example of a beautiful song! Melodic, climatic and poetic. this really hit me in the feels on Wayne, perfect soundtrack scene combo
I first learned about this song from when it appeared in an australian tv show, and now I can't ever forget the song, but the name of the tv show I can't for life of me remember what it was. Such a beautiful song
I don't know what "Wayne" is and I didn't know that Johnny Depp recommended this song, I grew up listening to this song many times, it's a beautiful childhood song and I'll forever rememebr it with heart.
Wayne and Del I'm actually crying bro their story can't be over
They aren’t they need Amazon prime to agree on season 2
I was so hurt inside when Dels dad rammed into the car 😭
@@goldenboytapia me too and they should have given us a scene of del waking up, finding out she is going back gome
I SEARCHED THIS SONG BECAUSE OF THEM
@@anskiii Same dude I found a lot of good music cause of that show
I want a season 2 of Wayne!! My heart can’t get over it
me too, i think wayne will be escapes from prison and comeback to dell, what do you think about it?
I’m still hoping…
I will not lose hope that a second season will come out :')
Hope dies last, firmly awaiting Wayne's second season
I came after this show too!
here from San Francisco after watching The Artful Dodger in 2023! this song is amazing! There's so much great music from Australia!
THE KISS!!!!
Triple J Hottest 100 in 2006
Under appreciated in a way that can’t be put in words
this really hit me in the feels on Wayne, perfect soundtrack scene combo
Good music is so hard to find, good thing I saw Wayne
Thank you Johnny 💛

"Sound, sound the clarion, fill the fife,

WAYNE.
Jeff Buckley springs to mind in a very positive way. Love it.
Wayne did the song justice in the show. Wayne is a 10/10 show. I want season 2 so bad.

One of Johnny's favorites & now it's one of mine. 🥰🎶

I love this band. Thank you JD for introducing me to it! Thanks Johnny! XO 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Some of the best lyrics ever written
I first heard this song in the earth hour 2009 ... Literaly 10 years ago... I was in middle school. It was when I fell in love for the first time in my life... I remember the boy's name. After all those years I just had the guts to tell him how I felt. It didn't end up in anything... But I can just feel I was brave enough.... And this song is still with me. It remembers me him. It still feels good tough...
🖤🖤
Pure brilliance. I'm so proud Australia hasn't forgotten about this song. Lets move it up again in the next hottest 100!
I think this is a perfect example of a beautiful song! Melodic, climatic and poetic.
Beautifully said.
I've been loving this band for years and for the life of me can't understand how they aren't more popular... The fact that the crap on the radio get's played and this doesn't makes me a little crazy.
ash amdahl Gets, not get's. Know what apostrophes are for.
*****
Don't be that guy.
Don't be that dumb guy that has no idea how to use an apostrophe. Basic English dude, use your brain. Apostrophes denote possession or missing letters in contracted words. Gets is gets, that's it (ie. that is = that's). Only idiots think it doesn't matter.
John Cole Please, in great detail, tell me how I failed to make my point plain. If the purpose of language is to convey a message and grammar simply a set of rules to help make language more clear - how was I unclear? Given an ever evolving language, how do you know you're right? I have the right to take creative license with anything I write and you acting like some pedantic asswipe can't change that.
What is the appropriate etiquette, concerning grammar on a youtube thread? It seems open for debate at best. You seem to have an inferiority complex that yearns for the approval of other and the incessant need to claim you are right. Sad really. You talk about intelligence and all I hear is hubris.
John Cole
Guess we will have to agree to disagree. You are not right and I'm not going to try to convince you of anything. Please feel free to write a nice diatribe about how I'm wrong in my assertion.
I'm just here because my university teacher is the pianist for this band
Wow so cool
How cool! I just love their songs!
Kiernan Box? He is amazing in this song.
This is definitely gonna be my wedding song
Thank u artful dodger for this amazing song
Amazing song that makes its lyrics become one with the music. Maybe the most beautiful Australian song I've ever heard. Listening to it is just musical magic.
It’s definitely up the, but Flame Trees is heartbreaking.
Artful Dodger on Hulu brought me here…
Had to shazam it to get here
this song was played at my mates funeral 3 years ago, can only just start to listen to it again. R.I.P buddy!!!
Never gets old 💕
Like so many… I came here because Johnny recommended you….he has great taste in music~!!
That voice will go down as one of the best voices in Australian history
This song brings back so many heart warming memories, I adore this song
I love this song. First listened to it when there was a video about the Earth hour. :) Then I was like damn this song is amazing... :)
Terra Rider Same here. Earth hour 2009. The year I met the most important guy of my Life.
Beautiful song
@@TerraRiderAdventures I remember when Earth Hour was a thing but I never actually understood or enjoyed it when it was on and now when I'd love nothing more then to see the Stars it sadly just doesn't exist anymore.
Episode 6 of The Artful Dodger brought me here.
I just heard this on the radio. I remember really not liking this song, but I just realised how many levels this has, and what an amazing piece of composing this is.
Here bcuz #JohnnyDepp mentioned you guys!! I have posted your music on my facebook a couple of times & will do it again! #JohnnyDepp is the BEST! He is always wanting others to live their dreams too, he is an amazing man!! Have a blessed day/night! 😊✌

New song that will completely remind me of johnny
Wayne has introduced me to some of the best music I've ever heard in my life 😍
WAYNE!! ❤
I’ve been looking for this song………….finally 😭
Wayne and The artful dodger
When Johnny Depp recommends a song, Yeah, it's amazing.
I agree. Johnny's good choice
Yeah, thanks Johnny 😘
When you listen to amazing music without having to have it recommended. “Amazing”
@@thedcmac Yeah I feel like that might have happened before...usually though I just wait around for an actor to speak pearls of wisdom for my collection
It also won triple j's hottest 100 on 2006
Johnny Depp recommended the song. Let's go! 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿😯💨💨
I don't know Wayne, but anyone listening to Augie March for any reason is a fuckin legend.
" Put me in a cage full of lions, I'll learn to speak lion."
Indeed JD this is a very beautiful song, thank you 🤍
Wayne n Del
Wildly Iconic. What a monster of a song and performance.
Just release wayne s2 already i wanna see more of del and wayne
First time I heard this song I just paused..... Pure brilliance this band deserved far more recognition than they received
The more you listen, the more you want to listen. İt goes on all day ...
I'm here from Johnny's suggestion :)
Sheer in its colour. Perfection in its execution. What a piece of music amidst lyrical genius
This song is genius
who's here from 2006 when it actually came out, listening to triple j.. *raises hand*
here actually, i was expecting this comment, i'm not disappointed
Word
Me. Woke up with it in my head this morning. Who the fuck is Wayne?
@@beekyoo the best series ever
hated it back then because my brother played it endlessly. Saw them live when they supported Crowded House, they stuffed up about 30 seconds into 1 crowded hour and just started all over again lol.
Wayne got me here
Wayne 🥰🥰
'The wrong girl' made me look at this beautiful song again
It is sometimes the best and worst that make you prioritise. Thank you Hayley.
Same! I forgot how lovely it is
When Johnny recommended this song to me he wasn't wrong when he said it's amazing, it's my favorite song at the moment, and whenever I hear this song I remember him.
God love this song so much, could listen to it all day. ❤. N.F.T .love and respect. Yours truly. Xxxx.
Grow your heart, soul and spirit always, the meat suit will decay, and die, but no word of lie, the light and love you grow within, regardless of your wrongs or sin, goes forth in light, with right and true, and this will be the eternal you.
Johnny Depp spoke highly of this song - he is so right! Great song!
Love this song. Greetings from Budapest, Hungary.
I’ve been listening to this song for ages and to come back and see all the comments talking about Johnny Depp and some bloke called Wayne is AMAZING! No gatekeepers here! Welcome everyone ❤
Насколько шикарная композиция....как я ее не слышал???
Should you expect to see something that you hadn't seen
In somebody you'd known since you were sixteen
If love is a bolt from the blue,
Then what is that bolt but a glorified screw
That doesn't hold nothing together?
Far from these nonsense bars and their nowhere music
It's making me sick and I know it's making you sick
There's nothing there; it's like eating air
It's like drinking gin with nothing else in
That doesn't hold me together
But for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
Now I know you like your boys to take their medicine
From the bowl with a silver spoon
Who run away with the dish and scale the fish
By the silvery light of the moon
Who were taught from the womb to believe to the tune
In as far as their bleeding eyes see
It's a pleasure pen, meant for them, built for and rent for them
Not for the likes of me
Not for the like of you and me
And for one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
And I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
Oh but the green-eyed harpy of the song land
She takes into hers my hand
She says, "Boy I know you're lying
Oh but then, so am I, "
And to that I said "Oh well"
They put me in a cage full of lions, I learned to speak lion
In fact I know the language well
I picked it up while I was versing myself in the languages
They speak in hell
That night, the silence gave birth to a baby
They took it away to her silent dismay
And they raised it to be lady
Now she can't keep her mouth shut
For one crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
I sailed around all those bumps in the night to your beacon in the gloom
I thought I had found my golden September in the middle of that purple June
But one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
One crowded hour, you were the only one in the room
Well I played a few songs for those bumps in the night
In fact I played this very tune
You said, "What is this six-stringed instrument but an adolescent loom?"
And one crowded hour would lead to my wreck and ruin
I love reading along as I listen, my thanks.
Nicely done
Omg Wilbur!
Man this song is a mouthful when it comes to singing it
Nice work👍Couple of corrections:
The Green eyed harpy of the salt land....
Who were taught from the womb to believe to the tomb....
Augie lyrics are tough to get down, people have done whole Uni thesis on them

Wayne!
Who’s here from Wayne? You guys have been sitting under a rock since 2006 when this was born.
I have been racking my brain to remember this song for nearly the whole year, and finally, I’m back. Masterpiece of Aussie music

Need Wayne Season 2 ASAP
The Artful Dodger brought me here.
Thanks Wayne
This one's for you. You know who you are.
Watching Wayne in March
brought me to Augie March
Daniel Khithie Yep I just binged it as well. I will legit feel sad if there’s no season 2.
I think this is a perfect example of a beautiful song! Melodic, climatic and poetic.
this really hit me in the feels on Wayne, perfect soundtrack scene combo
The Artful Dodger episode 6 brought me here, beautiful song!
How can be a song such perfect?
If 'x factor' brought you here then you have no idea...
Probably close to the most underrated song Australian song ever, pure genious, pure emotion.
If you love this, ‘hole in the roof’ is another classic
I first learned about this song from when it appeared in an australian tv show, and now I can't ever forget the song, but the name of the tv show I can't for life of me remember what it was. Such a beautiful song
Who cares what brought you here! As long as you have been exposed to this pure genius, that's what matters!
Here because i appreciated this truly amazing song from when it was first released.
American here. This has been my favorite song since 2006. It's still going strong
I am here from Johnny's advice 😍
Anyone else just love this song and confused as to what is wayne? Lol
It's an amazing show that this song was featured in recently
Most of us are here because of The WAYNE SHOW!
@@londonisvile thank you London. Ill have to check it out 👍
* You mean, "What's a Wayne?"
@@stefanalin8494 a lot of us were here when this masterpiece was first released... 🤗
This should have 100,000,000 views. It's just so damn good!
I remember waking up to this gem when they played videos on VH1! ❤️
Beautiful song ❤ Saw them live Festival of the Sun @ Port Mac 2006!!! They played it twice through the rain 😂
One of the best songs ever
Most wonderful band. Shame on the music industry they let them pass by.
I don't know what "Wayne" is and I didn't know that Johnny Depp recommended this song, I grew up listening to this song many times, it's a beautiful childhood song and I'll forever rememebr it with heart.
Wayne, very good series on yt premium and amazon prime
Anyone here from The Artful Dodger? 🥰
