I've gotten in the habit of listening to kishi bashi in the morning so I don't shoot myself in the head by the time I leave the house. Very appeasing music

Escapism is just a bandage for a mortal wound

[@korma3736]

One day i suddenly started humming to this song then i started thinking where ive heard this before. I searched so long for this song and its unreal how hard it was to find it, i was googling "odyssey in the desert" and "amazing performance at park violin" because those were the only things that came to mind about this.(i know this had nothing to do with odyssey but that's what i remembered) Now i decided to try again once more and the name "Kishi Bashi" came up and just blew up in my head saying: "this is the one!" I heard and listened to this song for the first time when Michael from Vsauce included it in one of his videos, gave it a listen then fell in love with this. so glad i took the time to try and find this!

[@malul_dog-trainer]

i just went to the comment section thinning to myself "were do i know Kishi Bashi from".I loved him ever since Vsauce released that video too, apparently :)

[@matt1240]

what vsauce video was it?

[@stevec6976]

I was just in the same situation, its just that the only thing I distinctly remembered was the part of the song that went "In the desert, you suck my finger." Googled it and got Kishi Bashi. Lol

[@DanielsAfkBrb]

Someone showed me this song about 5 years ago on chatango, saw it once since then. But took me about half an hour to find it tonight. I believe it was "great violinist" that lead me to something mentioning kishi bashi.

[@calbewetzel3722]

@@matt1240 I know it’s been four years but I still want an answer to this man’s question

[@MLGracers]

I'm so grateful that I'm subbed to Vsauce2. This is now my favorite song ever.

[@ruyaworthy2428]

This is such a beautiful song! I have been listening to it for years, especially this version!

[@user-te5ee4hk5f]

This is getting me through finals week.

[@Mavkor]

He can sing, conduct, beatbox and play violin... What else cant he do

[@saifk6188]

how do you know

[@BatBreaker007]

His dancing is amazing

[@my1dance]

He is practically the definition of a one man band man, amazing

[@hoon4tw]

I've heard Kishi Bashi on NPR before, but now I'm certain that I should buy his music. He is a genius and a master of his instrument.

[@mike0rr]

Goosebumps. Makes me sad that there is music out there that I don't get to hear... Thank you sir, I love this.

[@digital_dan]

I keep coming back here. This how I found you. Thank you 🙏

[@BadAtThis420]

Still can't get over how incredible this is.

[@stoatmuldoon3131]

what an amazing piece, ive lost and refound this a atleast a dozen times and somehow it just keeps getting better everytime.

[@stoatmuldoon3131]

Absolutely brilliant! better again

[@UristMcTubedwarf]

i look at the world as a whole, and see a rotting ball of filth. but when i look closer, closer, and closer still, i find people like this man. if only there were more humans with creativity and greatness like him.

[@Knotaro_bot]

Fell in love with this many years ago, and it is still as strong today as it was then

[@JoseMeza-nz3qj]

this will always be one of my favorite things to listen to I'm so glad my friend told me about it almost four years ago

[@influenciaindebida]

I LOVE YOU, author of this media piece. THANK YOU

[@ChuckPodko]

Kishi, you change me. I absolutely love your music and passion.

[@wav3chaser]

I love this version so much.

[@traylorcowart6537]

I like how the people are just chilling in in the back ground listening to him sing

[@TheBeautifulhorizon]

Your style is what I love.

[@popepotato4378]

I've literally been looking for this for easily over a year and it is 100% worth all the time

[@godlesslippillow]

I saw this guy as the opening act at a Sondre Lerche concert in L.A. a year or two ago. When he started strumming the violin I was already in love.

[@peristau]

Still a favorite.

[@GDCMwMike]

Absolutely wonderful performance.

[@redschool]

Very soothing! Thank you for recording.

[@schylerbreshears6498]

March 2020. Found this song over 5 years ago and still love it. Peacefulness at its finest

[@benbutcher1467]

i had heard this song about two years ago, searched for who sang it for the longest time and i couldn't figure out who it was until about a week ago, hearing this song again really made me happy , he is very talented

[@Connrad]

This is amazing. Hope it gets the popularity it deserves.

[@que127]

I remember this video from forever ago but just recently started listening to this guy...trippy

[@zwabberz046]

I was getting insane a few hours ago about something but not sure why it made me feel this weird and confused, this really helped me calm down a little bit, still really confused but this was nice again :)

[@carolineconway5188]

Your vocals are amazing!

[@KaiTakApproach]

So immensely talented and creative....

[@Coolcat607]

omg singing and playing violin at the same time is sooo hard. I would say even harder than playing piano or guitar and singing at the same time... for some reason it just is.

[@PlanetNextDoor]

I'm in awe at the amazing song I just listened too.

[@JDRIZZLE15]

This is incredible. You have an amazing voice.

I loved the first song and this is the third time I come here today. Is it an original creation of yours, and if not, what is the name of it? But if it is your song, is there anywhere I can hear some other versions or long studio versions? Great performance!

[@Jelthi]

Love the bow tie -- Very cool!

[@MSGBlueshirts]

[@misinformedmarti]

Atticus, in the Desert (First Part) Oh in the desert, we tried to Love like they do in movies Face to face end of story As twins we created an era Two souls in prime sahara Swallowed by sand and time we play What began as an epic Ended a parched pathetic Arid and vapid like our attachments I was in love with you You're all i ever knew I gave my head to you The way i used to do It's in a better place now What you decide to do with it is up to you Like all things you feed on Oh in the desert you sucked my finger It wasn't meant to be, it was like water from leather Oh my god, what can i pay you to stop So in my desert what was the nature of your visit to my domain Business or pleasure? Oh my god, you just don't care if i drop I was in love with you You're all i ever knew I gave my head to you The way i used to do It's in a better place now What you decide to do with it is up to you Oh in the desert you sucked my finger Bright Whites (Second part) You and me at the edge of the world With a pretty little smile for me to see New bright whites and a cage full of ice And a naked little canopy to feed my disease And if you're to smile at me I could cry by land or sea After you said that you like Big Red I opened up my mind and skipped a beat Cufflinks and hands in wrong places and faces And creepy little movies made me weep And if you're to say to me What is mine is yours to keep Well you know, I'll have to see If all the stars aligned we could've solved the mystery It's a partial fantasy We're living in a land that went astray from history

[@evankohlman8585]
