Hell yes. That is exactly what this is.

[@chrismail]

The song he played on his computer is : Jan Garbarek : A tale begun (A Norwegian musician)

[@palomabrighton9756]

His house looks like his music

[@CMac6662666]

Thought this was a comedy sketch. Glad he exists

[@carljcreighton]

Food poisoning doesn't explain that bathroom

[@wallaceprince5971]

What's on his toilet seat?

[@te9591]

@@wallaceprince5971 a sock?

[@MTMF.london]

Maybe he was tripping on LSD at the time.

[@lauralunaazul]

Oh, yes, it does.

[@zitabanasinski-yourguidingLumi]

Food poisoning caused hallucinations...poor him....scary to come to to that bathroom! 🤪

[@verdaylove]

I've never heard of this guy or any of his music but this alone makes me feel like he's my new best friend.

[@san1695]

He is so delightful underrated ...I think my fav part of his music is that it isn't overplayed you know?

[@ElizabethHortua]

I come here almost every year to feel warm, this video is my comfort video.

[@kaupaint]

No fr

[@annikawasikowska]

Me too :~)

[@emmabarton98]

He looks like a cult leader and I’m ready to join

[@internetsummoner]

Emma Barton lmao

[@dre122221]

I am also ready to join and I’m okay with it

[@HBCrigs]

You joke, but I would really.. not even cult itd be baktj yoga with this guy

[@patricklutherwinchester4260]

And this is the recruiting/orientation video hehe. I already signed my soul away.

[@s.carter4087]

sign us up! i just escaped another cult anyway

[@MARTE19]

of course he owns a typewritter...

[@chopin65]

😂 Yeah. I have to go to an optometrist now. I hurt my eyes when I rolled them back too far.

[@AshfordAH1Z]

you know his bathroom is the result of some crazy LSD or mushroom trip

[@Smartestofall-10]

When video dont make sense, you go to comments section and then comments section dont make sense too.

[@abrown5526]

I love how honest he was about his food poisoning. Most would just push through and do the interview, but he was very candid about it!

[@ricasa2005]

Mam, he is an attention seeker.

[@cookiestar3069]

This is an interview, silly.

[@habibaezzat2055]

something about the way he climbs up those stairs

[@melodyfairymeadow]

i'm getting Wes Anderson vibes. he could be a character from one of his films. maybe it's the way that he talks.

[@janelane6074]

he talks like wes aha

[@Sea_witch_]

εïз Lolita εïз yes definitely yes.

[@camilogarcia1325]

Damn you`re right!

[@tallmikbcroft6937]

εïз Melody Fairymeadow εïз nice, I love both Devendra and Wes Anderson ... I could see that

[@simetry6477]

His girlfriend i think was.

[@saloneeshetty5506]

I like how he walked up the stairs , how unsure and awkward they were

[@DianaGamerosMusic]

Diana Gameros haha ♡

[@katlara9161]

I really respect his music but that sound kind of dumb

@João Paulo Salvatori clever??

[@goodsamwise]

@João Paulo Salvatori I lived in a veg coop in California. Trust me , there’s plenty of people like him.

[@illegalhunter7]

he lives alone right? I can't imagine another person tolerating that toilet seat.

[@lush-retina]

he's changed so much! i used to wonder why and then I too grew up and became someone different so now i'm less judgemental of his complete image shift.

[@RayasNegroOvejas]

Lush Retina how is it a "complete" image shift?

[@lush-retina]

agreed! i was really talking about his look more than anything else. also i didn't meant to say, "I grew up" in that that there's a proper grown up way to dress and act, I just meant that I understood you can change yourself as many times as you want and you don't have to strive for a single "true" way of being.

[@georgethompson3763]

I remember him in the mid-2000s, specially his time with Cocorosie, I think he was in a relationship with one of the sisters. I loved their music (Cocorosie and Devendra) I saw them in concerts 3 or 4 times, but I also thought they were kinda insane hippies, lol.

[@douglaslayme169]

It remains the same as it is more elegant

[@vhex]

He is the same but with hair shorter.

[@halloweeninthesea]

in my dream we are cohabiting there as lovers

“De-ikea-fying the house” Finally, someone that is happy to move away from the constant repetition that is Ikea

[@jeffrey5966]

I thought it was a pun on DIY, as in, DIKEA, as in, he bought a bunch of Ikea stuff.

[@mateofontalvo6779]

His house looks like a Instagram filter

[@GinniAimee]

HAHAHAHA

[@syalalaputri1802]

I think it called "Valencia"? Lol

[@bluewaterpines8323]

Check out Mrtacpans on the tube.

[@silverbasscross]

I'd love to party with Dev, looks like the kind of guy who's always stoned, without even smoking

[@PeaceNLiebe]

Devendrá and Florence tours are my fave.

[@syalalaputri1802]

Because it really shows them as individual

[@erique_k]

Are you a junkie?

[@simongreenham]

I think i fell in love with him and his house - both beautiful and deranged

[@internetsummoner]

simon g great description !

[@samch5358]

I have covid for the first time ever and I'm stuck at home missing Hardly Strictly (Devendra played today).... This brought me so much joy!

[@deathkampdrone]

Every time somebody mentions Echo Park, my brain is singing Carmelita. I saw Devendra at a festival in 2004. He was very charming, and he really hasn't changed. Cool dude :)

[@HaloLegendful]

Detrás de cada uno de estos videos de Banhart hay un recuerdo tuyo…. Siempre te llevo conmigo, Miss you so much, my D.

Best comment eveeeeeeer ♥

[@dim9753]

That bathroom is one of the most nausea-inducing spaces I've ever seen. Looks like he took it out of the film trainspotting. But the rest of the house is cool.

[@AutomticHeart]

My housemate ones did the same after consuming 2 bottles of wine.

[@juliao5126]

his bathroom looks like elmos world

[@prettyhamburger6462]

Now that's an aesthetic I can get behind!

[@organize1979]

Oh my god I laughed so hard out loud at this comment

[@sarahfaith6531]

[@indravargas1388]

I don't know him but I like his personality. My kind of humor.

[@tallmikbcroft6937]

Devendra your music is a big part of the soundtrack of my life.... thank you so much!

[@ashleyscout4848]

I cry when I spend exam week at school (15 hours a day) and finally return home again to be among my things and familiar life. I can't imagine what tour feels like.

[@munchiesmartinez8901]

I love your music. Carmensita, Mí Negrita, Bad Girl and I Feel Like A Child are my all time faves. ❤️

[@LunA777._.]

Mine too!! :D

[@m3lisha]

He is too groovy

[@eagles_nationfly_eagles_fl2093]

This dude seems like he’s taken waaaaayyy too much acid but he sings 1 song that I absolutely love & it relaxes me when I’m having a shit day. And that song is “A Sight to Behold”. Love it

[@esteban578]

One of my all time favourite musicians plus what makes him special to me is we're both hispanics from neighbour countries

[@Mars-le9zs]

I have never heard this music but after watching this video I already love this guy and wanna be his friend. he's so zen

[@calypsomars]

THIS IS MY DREAM HOME. I love it all and especially the bathroom. I also found myself transfixed by those incredible sea green socks. I wonder where he got them?

[@chioma916]

i think I'm in love with him now

[@Momo74153]

Tripple love! these small apartment/houses are my favorite part of Nowness.

[@WhatWouldKarlaSay]

Just found his song "mi negrita" searched him..found this and LOVE him

[@bartoncasey1]

By far my favorite "My Place" episode!

[@ninethreefivesix]

I used to love his music in the mid 2000s and I just kinda stopped over the years. Forgot how weird he is. Lovely man.

[@hannahb5219]

I feel more comfortable in how strange I sometimes feel after watching this.

[@Samtar]

You know, I kind of liked his music. But I really like him. haha.

[@ELENTE_]

The background music... best selection EVER!!

[@blondie.5166]

It’s sad to think that this man doesn’t know that I am in love with him

[@SunSchrody]

OK I want that bathroom, but who the hell has a toilet butt sleeve.

[@genesisvazquez1068]

I found today that's a Japanese thing, fluffy toilets because why not...

[@anjiephatcat]

its for the cold! plus that blue is so pretty.

[@angiii]

They sell them at Daiso over here in Southern California! I used to have some with llamas on them lol

[@internetsummoner]

Angelique Lopez aww llamas 🦙 so cute !!

[@mooniemoons]

Devendra has.

[@chaton20]

That fluffy toilet seat. How can that be hygienic? 😷😷

[@noelc8927]

Devendra doesn't look like a pooping type of person

[@dariusasghari]

But what about when the FOOD POISON occurs?

[@manateexing]

chaton20 other than record music and thrift, i think all he does is poop

[@AgentXPQ]

To me, that looked like a towel placed on it- There only because he had been barfing all night.

[@maximeconte358]

AgentXPQ mmmmmpmmmpmpppm

[@nickthelick]

It's like "NO! You should still be living like a hippie beat-nik, in a commune, and preferably penniless!" LOL! =OD Nah, it's cool, he's earned it... an earlier commentator mentioned "How can he afford a house up near the million dollar mark, when he's not actually that popular?". Well, personally, I'd say he's sold PLENTY of records and played PLENTY of BIG gigs, sold loads of merch etc. That he's easily hit the "comfortably-well-off-for-the-rest-of-my-life" button! For me, he kinda lost his way and kicked himself when he did that fucking Oliver Peoples commercial with his then girlfriend, frolicking in a bath with their pricey shades on! Hell, it's things like that that helped pay for his house! Um, but yeah, gimme the penniless, drunk and drugged Devendra any day! ;o) =op

[@CRFSUIGENERIS]

He is a subtle delight.

[@Skims24]

there's something about him that makes me think of Ray from Girls

[@willturner803]

Sorry, norm core?

[@Skims24]

Will Turner are you asking what norm core is or wondering why it's mentioned in this situation?

[@willturner803]

Asking what it is? I've never heard of it :)

[@youngperceptions]

I've never admired him more

[@AmbientWalking]

Peace and Gratitude!

[@jacquesmesrine8031]

This dude has all my respect; apart from being a humble guy who does what he wants, he truly speaks like an old school poet. Like Neruda. He's got that vibe. Also he speaks languages, he has an amazing hair and he has banged Natalie Portman. It doesn't hurt that his music is amazing too. I'm not gay but there's a little man crush here indeed

[@arthurb8436]

he's accomplished life

[@arthurb8436]

everything else he does now is just for fun

[@ritabarreiros1]

I love it and also love his attitude

[@pabloacval]

I know you wanna know the name of the song playing at 01:20. It’s “A Tale Begun” by Jan Garbarek. You are very welcome. 😊

[@RobertSlover]

i feel like he was tripping in the bathroom once and thought the imposing white tile needed some color.

[@swan1542]

Finally found youuuu. I’d forgotten which video I’d seen a couple of months ago that made me feel so happy, didn’t know what to put in the search except ‘architecture’ and ‘house’. Blessed day
