Dan Mangan - Vessel Lyrics






I'm a vessel in the valley
Getting riddled with the tally
I'm the middle of a season
Getting riddled with the reasons

Stop (It takes a village to raise a fool)
Wait (It takes a village to raise a fool)
Un- (It takes a village to raise a fool)
-hand me (It takes a village to raise a fool)
...

I'm the widow of a conscience
Getting riddled with the nonsense

Stop (It takes a village to raise a fool)
Wait (It takes a village to raise a fool)
Un- (It takes a village to raise a fool)
-hand me (It takes a village to raise a fool)
...

  16. j.... ....

    I never understood how this song didn't get more popular

    j.... ....

    Because today we have internet. And wise adults love these music but kids don't understand. Adults don't buy music much and they listen to youtube but kids buy a lot.
    I think the stupid videogames and the stupid anime's are making the world childish .

    Dan Mangan debe ser un gran padre, no nos cabe ninguna duda, después de que hace dos años desapareciera del mundo de la música para dedicarse por entero a su retoño que acababa de nacer. Fue el momento en que el canadiense alcanzaba más notoriedad, después de cambiar su sonido inicial del folk por la vanguardia sonora. Ahora ha retomado aquel camino junto con una banda de free-jazz, para ofrecernos temas redondos como: "Vessel", "Kitsch", "Fogertery", "Mouth piece" o ese espléndido "Offred" con final explosivo.  Dan Mangan compone canciones con cargas de profundidad, para criticar la situación social que vivimos en la actualidad, lo hace acompañado de acordes experimentales y una voz derrotada. Por momentos puede recordar a The National o Radiohead.
    Música independiente novedades.

  25. S.... S....

    These guys are genius.  I'm reminded of early Dave Matthews -- just how tight the band's sound is, the listy non-linear lyrics, that sort of thing... They deserve the great reviews the album is getting!

  26. B.... S....

    Never heard of this guy until I heard a review of this CD on NPR last night.

    B.... S....

    Same here

  27. B.... ....

    super dope song and video

  28. R.... S....

    he's tedious without the futuristic edge of blacksmith. together they are making some great music though

  29. M.... ....

    Hektor brachte mich her

  30. E.... E....

    It's always amazes me that Dan Mangan is still so unknown in Canada! He's an incredible talent and a special favourite for those who have good friends (or sisters) who introduce one to his music. Was starving for a new record, Thanks to Dan and Blacksmith!

    E.... E....

    I used to run into him all the time in Vancouer he lived in my neighborhood. Id scream Dan Mangan every time i saw him and hed just laugh and wave.

    E.... E....

    There's a band named Blue Hawaii. They're so underrated.
    Listen to their blue gowns track.

  31. s.... ....

    Very nice. Reminds me of Genesis. 

  32. M.... T....

    Can anybody find the Phil Kessel parody? 

  33. i.... s....

    I Like This.

  34. f.... ....

    Who is that on the canadian 20 bill?? 2:25

    f.... ....

    mao zedong

    f.... ....

    Thanks!

  35. T.... S....

    Great song and video... Much love from Omaha

  36. s.... ....

    Fan-freakin'-tastic! Reminds me of some progressive stuff we were listening to in the 80s.

  37. D.... K....

    p.s Dave Grohl in the chorus

  38. D.... ....

    YouTube has pulled this video? Why why why? A completely original piece of art posted by the artists. Considered by NPR to be one of the best videos produced in ages. Makes no sense. YouTube - care to respond?

  39. R.... M....

    love:) can't wait for the full album

  40. l.... ....

    Wow, my deepest thoughts and fears are expressed so vividly in this video. Simply amazing.

  41. j.... ....

    This feels like the time I did some bad hallucinogenics and lost my shit and I love it.

  42. K.... N....

    "It takes a village to raise a fool." So friggin good.

  43. S.... G....

    That was a gut punch of a video! Vancouver Love!

  44. P.... R....

    This song should hang in art galleries across the world and play on repeat until the world implodes. 

  45. w.... ....

    every filmstill = an artpiece ! 

  46. E.... S....
