Margo Guryan - Someone I Know

Footage from the 1962 film 'David And Lisa', directed by Frank Perry and starring Keir Dullea and Janet Margolin.

Heard this in an episode of 'I Think You Should Leave'. Even though it appeared in a ridiculous sketch comedy show, it was still very moving. I had to look it up. Beautiful stuff.

[@EvilEyeWeddings]

same here ! Love the vibe!

[@Petemejia77]

Ditto! Took me 4 seconds to know that I liked the song.

[@nancytribe]

Same! Never heard of the song or even the artist and now I'm a huge fan. Thanks, Tim et al!

[@foundthingsifound]

Which sketch

[@DentyOne]

​@@foundthingsifoundI believe it's the birthday party sketch with Steven Yeun.

[@ricklezenby7948]

The Resort sent me here. The song and the Philadelphia Museum of Art back in the day make for a haunting trace of a memory.

[@danielfenner5499]

RIP Margo. One of my favorite songwriters/composers/producers. Not only did she perform these hauntingly beautiful songs, she also wrote for, produced and taught many other artists. One of the greats!

SHE DIED?!

Drums are outstanding... You can tell it's a pro jazz drummer

Margo's session drummer was Hal Blaine - check out his album called 'Have fun! Play Drums!'

[@reginaldperiwinkle]

I'm just discovering this artist. She's amazing. Needs to be said -- she is using Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring". Very nice!

[@bowie761]

Definitely resembles Bach's tune...

[@christopherspillman3870]

I’m just discovering her too and asking all my older kinfolk and friends why I’ve never been made aware of her. 😊

[@christopherspillman3870]

“Needs to be said” 😆… go through the Beatles and Stones and other bands and see what they “borrowed” DIRECTLY from classical influences.

[@iansmith8783]

I’m always a sucker for someone who marches into my life like they own the place, walks up to me and points, “you! You’re the one I’m interested in.”

[@AndyBonesSynthPro]

I really love this song. And I have a retro-crush on Margo Guryan ❤

[@EnoVarma]

Wanted to say that this is a brilliant fan made video. The song is awesome, the movie choice perfect, editing wonderful, and the actress Janet Margolin even resembles Margo. Kudos.

[@TheLoon]

Many thanks! ^_^

[@bogarde2619]

Thats not margo? :(

[@SparklyGutz]

I also thought it was her! I've got to check out this movie now, thanks for sharing!

[@nicolek.3614]

Today I am sad beyond words. RIP Margo.

[@drudelmonico]

Did not know this artist before and am really taken aback. It sounds very contemporary. The video together with the song makes it even more fascinating.

[@christopherspillman3870]

I had to read the Wikipedia Bio and Discography several times to make sure I wasn’t dreaming🤓

[@Theasworld1984]

Is there anything interviews with this amazing person I would really love to see her I discovered Ms Guryan's music nine years ago and I've enjoyed everything I've heard by far that's rare for any artist I like but she definitely won me over big time because she reminds me of myself in my younger years writing songs and singing etc.

[@TheGroovySideOftheTube]

RIP Margo.... loved your music. Thank you! RIP

[@unxprienced9548]

Tim Robinson brought me here,,, love ITYSL

[@mattd3826]

Me too! It helped me open up on a deeper level I never had before. It made me realize that lately all I've been talking about is my kids, but there's so much more to live for!

[@paulj3873]

Just found this artist/song/ video. Wow wow wow. So powerful

[@nickandmikec]

Janet Margolin was so beautiful.

[@sjfernando0227]

I was thinking of leaving There was no one around here I wanted to know Then I saw someone who happened to remind me of Bein' in love a long time ago I know and you know That we never met before tonight Why then should I feel so right About being in your arms Mmmm You're feeling good to me now And I don't want to go Your lips are warm and familiar And you feel like someone I know

[@sdry1688]

Could easily be hit again...sounds like it was recorded yesterday, just a shame it's so short

[@saulomoon]

one of my favorite videos on youtube ever

[@rudra4625]

damn didn’t even realize it was her song that was featured on my favorite sketch from I Think You Should Leave Season 3. so late for the train i started becoming a fan right after she passed. Love Songs has been on my rotation. Such a beautiful soul, RIP Margo ❤❤

[@SlyBurke]

Finally! I've been seeing this video for months on last.fm and wondering where the clips were taken from, now I finally found it here.

[@screggybojanklin3567]

Bach sample is from Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring, for any who's interested. Most of us probably know it as Christmas music from radio and tv ads

[@TheJohnRowley]

great choice of footage for the song

[@cyberprimate]

One of the most beautiful thing one can fine on youtube. Thanks TheLoon.

[@TheLoon]

Glad you enjoyed! ^_^

[@cyberprimate]

@@TheLoon I watched it many times when you posted it. Watched it again this morning and was charmed again. There's a powerful poetic beauty in the editing of images and music. The video transcends the music of Bach/Guryan totally. It adds an emotional poignant dimension to it. Having watched it so many times I can no longer hear Guryan's song without visualizing the images with it.

[@cyberprimate]

And I generally dislike music videos.

[@TheLoon]

Aw, that's so nice to hear! Many thanks indeed for such lovely words

[@mattd3826]

I agree. This video along with the music is profoundly moving

[@mattd3826]

This song makes me realize I've brought enough hurt into the world by taking my son to the zoo where he shot the gorilla
