EDDIE VEDDER : "Walking The Cow" (Daniel Johnston cover) : OHANA FESTIVAL (Sept 28, 2019)

[@RJ67.]

Awesome cover of Daniel Johnston I was lucky enough to see him play live in Texas back in the mid-1980s, I was all of 15 or so. I'm 52 now. Daniel although a tortured soul he was a man who bore the beauty of his soul to us through his music & art. The pendulum must go both ways I guess, "No matter how dark the day, the sun shines down on me’ and ‘true love will find you in the end.'”Thank you, Daniel‘

Didn’t know he covered a daniel johnston song. This is very in line with the character

[@coreyjwingate]

Daniel johnston is in line with humanity

[@LowdownBoy]

The character?

[@AshtrayAnnie]

He covered this song back in 1994 as well. He’s been a fan for a long time. Kurt Cobain kinda started the trend and brought Daniel into the eyes of many as he started wearing his shirt everywhere.

Was there last night...Thanks Eddie for saving my life

[@facucuestas4946]

[@ego-smack-sequel2661]

Eddie vedder a living legend. Talking about a great song writing young man passing And how much inspiration came from him and how liked he was... I can only say I feel the same way about Eddie vedder. What he’s done and shared with us... inspiring..... heartfelt songs that will exist for all time. Thank you sir

[@Bruceybaby2009]

Beautiful cover. Eddie’s got such an incredible voice.

[@briancostin1720]

Me recuerda a mi mascota cuando falleció llore demasiado con esta canción

[@kangfesher]

Gorgeous. Thanks so much for posting!

[@masonmoore9584]

Sick video and you flexing your camera at the end had me dead😂

[@reverendjimjones1043]

This guy's a pretty good singer but he's no Daniel

[@CzarWall]

Props for all of the quality clips you captured at Ohana. I was on the palm tree to your right. One of the fests I’ve attended for sure.

[@RahulSekhar]

Nice job filming that, that was a long zoom out!

[@Lymbe06]

Good job Eddie.

[@gergstrMoz]

The cover by Lucius brought me here, theirs is really good.

[@kenlieck7756]

Nice reminiscence. He essentially covers Mike Watt's cover of the song so before this I was never sure he had even ever listened to Daniel...

[@paulmarsh9544]

I agree Danny was better.

[@dkapsali]

Great video! Did you happen to film the whole set?

[@mano1971music]

Dimitrios Kapsalis ....I have a few more videos from last night that I still need to upload, along with Eddie’s guest appearances today with Jack Irons and Lukas Nelson ✌🏼

[@kangfesher]

Lovely.

[@artamys7244]

A big moment

[@mythicalashley9542]

Yeah Daniels is way better because of the emotion you feel from him

[@wheninroamful]

What does Eddie say “tooky time” at 1:41 and then again after that??

[@Ocyris151]

he said "he had a tricky time" referring to the mental health issues Daniel had.

[@wheninroamful]

@@Ocyris151 Thanks.

[@Viajealodesconocido]

[@happyliver462]

Yeah even Eddie f***** Vedder can't capture what that song does. Lol

[@TonySkiens]

Eddie was high listening to those tapes

[@MEANS911]

Pipe dreams: Means

[@jamesparkerone]

Really sorry to folks who get a kick from this. but I like the original for the fast tempo. Anything slower just doesn't do it for me I'm afraid. No disrespect intended. It's a quality cover no doubt but is anyone else with me on getting more of a kick from the faster original version??????

[@elvarfreyrelvarsson]

I sure do appreciate the thought but damn this is not for me Well rip Daniel Johnston

[@jamesparkerone]

I cant get with anything slower than the original. This song grabbed me for the basic a hell organ tones but the faster pace. Anything done slower just dont seam to kick. I like to think Daniel did it at that tempo for a specific reason. If you understand what I'm trying to say

[@Crazyfeline]

I don’t know. Wouldn’t even recognize this as a Johnston cover. Not for me.

[@barbwirebats]

And that's how a cover should be, an interpretation. Like the Butthole Surfers interpretation of American Woman : )~

[@LiveInTown]

You might have missed the Firehose/Mike Watt version then. Honestly though, nobody is gonna sound like Johnston anyway, nor should they.

[@RJ67.]

Daniel's genius was on a level not many can comprehend. Your response is of the average mind,

[@RJ67.]

This is not for you!!!!!!

[@wheninroamful]

@@LiveInTown agreed. Im not too much of a fan of Eddie's cover, but i dont need to be...although, the somber feel in it matches completely for covering a brilliant songwriter that we just lost, so thumbs up all around.

[@DT24K]

Love this song! Well that is when Vedder plays it. Not too friggin’ crazy for it though when the actual artist Daniel Johnston plays it. Know that’s kind of odd but I just can’t get into DJ’s voice at all while hearing this song played even though it was his song.🙄

[@blackdiamondrider]

You need to open your heart and mind to hear it. If Vedder can hear it, then why can't you?

[@RJ67.]

@@blackdiamondrider see my comment above

[@unionprounion6356]

Its not supposed sound rehearsed or technically proficient, just raw and visceral. That's the aesthetic of stuff labelled lo-fi. Maybe check out more accessible artists in the lo-fi category such as Guided by Voices, pavement or neutral milk hotel before venturing into dj discography.

[@mythicalashley9542]

Lol eddies is dog shit compared to the way Daniel sang, its not about being a good singer its about the emotion he's portraying

[@lobdsk]

Geez talk much Eddy Vedder
