Short Daniel Johnston 8mm film shot by Mark Miller in 1999

People around me dont understand why im obsessed with Daniels music and life.

[@Dynected]

they don’t need to understand, atleast you found the truth

[@DecoElectraGun]

It’s because they are well adjusted to life and you feel lost and alone.

[@minktrappingpaddy]

​@DecoElectraGun That's the thing though. For the longest time, I was so lost, but for the last number of years, life has been good. I've never been as happy. Still I'm drawn to music with an air of sadness in them. Heart wrenching songs. Songs filled with feeling.

[@DecoElectraGun]

@@minktrappingpaddy yeah I get it. I like his music too. I can relate to the pain.

[@sabatino1977]

@@minktrappingpaddy - I've been there. When you've been through shit and it gets better, it somehow feels good to revisit the shit bits through music. In a way, it allows you to revisit that time but from a safer place.

We love you, Daniel! Your music and personality have influenced so many

[@Koopakid917543]

It's crazy being able to see something like this. Something that otherwise probably never would have seen the light of day if it wasn't someone like Daniel. Super interesting

[@vega1925]

Thanks for sharing Daniel is my favorite songwriter

[@rodycaceresoficial]

I love this guy. I hope my own music be 1% of Dani.

[@GoldenGnome-rv2pv]

Me too

[@geraldturner4770]

One of the greatest lyricists and composers in music history. That's all.

Whats the name of this song

[@minktrappingpaddy]

Wondering the same thing

[@raphfung]

Piano version of Mad World, I guess it's the Daniel Johnston version as well judging by the random solos and ad libs in between.

[@tatsukimasu]

4:28 did he break a bunch of eggs all over his head? that's the only scene I didn't like because seems so unnecessary...

[@snicker576]

I mean what is really necessary lol

[@Fruitcake68]
