2024 check in lol - Tom you’re a legend mate

[@MrAbbo11]

Chronically underappreciated. This track is an absolute classic.

[@reccecs4]

It IS!

[@DuSlothster]

One of the most underrated British singers

[@fka.climate]

I’m rediscovering his album in 2021 after I first heard it in 2006. This aged really, really well. Authentic.

[@PinkLloyd88]

You aged well!

[@DJErrn]

In a 1989...black...Mercedes Benz. best delivery of a line in a song ever!

[@anttitheinternetguy3213]

Its really somehow The heart of this song. So much personality told with such a small line

[@Phillyjoe2]

This song reminds me of how indie music and electronica should sound like :-)

[@gracebrewer4281]

Reminds me of Once In a Lifetime by the Talking Heads. Is it just me? He totally has an 80s vibe.

[@chedfachedfa6342]

How did you get up here?

[@jasonspurs]

Oh yes

[@brit8851]

I was thinking the same thing! *:-D*

[@misterf2923]

true !(yes, still listening it in 2020)

[@PierreRipplinger]

This is not my beautiful house.

[@wiggerlywoo]

Upbeat, yet melancoly...such a great song and a great metaphor.

[@memyselfandi2311]

Wow, Tom Vek should become really really big. He's worth it.

[@PhaktTheIsolationist]

I will always come back to this song. One of the most inspiring, comforting tunes I own. Love it.

Love this song. Reminds me of long summer days with my Dad rigging traffic lights to cause crashes. Rip Dad 😥

[@qwertycraig23]

Not in a car crash I hope 🫢

[@manicpanic4486]

Over 10 years posted on KZbin. ..less than 300k views😢😢 shocking! !! Always loved this debut album. ..❤

[@Maxmulham]

I discovered Tom's music through GTA 4. I thought it was a really rad song so I decided to check out his others song. Every single fucking song this guy churned out is incredible. Good videos too. I seriously never understood why he isn't more well known.

[@mynameismark25]

1:22 instantly time traveled back to summer 2006 everytime i hear it. great time to be young.

[@jimjustjim976]

The best part, brother

[@VaidaTheboy1der]

Been a Fan of Mr. Vek since I was 14. I'm 21 now! His music plays a crucial part in my life.

[@lucashallwas]

A fan still?

[@eduazy]

You are 30 now

[@williamstyreese]

Still fan? (Say yes please)

[@nickthelick]

32 now? 44 myself... Been a fan since I was... oooh, 27/28?🤔 Something like that...

[@Kainlarsen]

Been one since I was 24, now I'm 42. :D

[@misswolfe]

Yes. If I could spend all of my free time listening to good music, alone in a rollerskating rink...I would be very, very happy.

[@MrSpudweasel]

Tom's got the kind of voice I would normally love to hate, but there's no two ways about it - since I stumbled across him here about 20 minutes ago, I can't help but think his music is the dog's proverbials. I even like the videos. Must be mellowing in my old age...

[@sorenkoford8015]

I'd like to thank God, Jesus Christ, and Tom Vek for all things that are good.

[@sorenkoford8015]

Same things, brother.

[@illiteratethug3305]

+Soren Koford Tom Vek doesn't give AIDS to unborn babies. Maybe we should worship him instead...

[@sorenkoford8015]

I could get behind that. Someone contact up Tom and let him know the Church of Vek has been born.

[@illiteratethug3305]

Soren Koford In Vek we trust

[@walesfan1]

Stumbled across this guy by accident. Fucking brill, right up my street. Thanks for turning me on to Tom Vek.

[@pocketjeffs]

Psy - 2billion views Tom Vek - 111k? That's what's wrong with the world......among many other things obviously

[@PhaktTheIsolationist]

I was just about to write the same thing and seen you got there two months before me. It should be in the millions, one of my top ten songs of ALL TIME!!

[@theyearoftherat]

Genghis Khanhimself everything is wrong with this world. the popularity of people twisting knobs and using autotune is just a symptom.

[@barneygoldstein7103]

Genghis Khanhimself ain't nothing wrong with the world but the people in it homie. Peace

[@Chronas9.9]

Genghis Khanhimself the world gives too much attention to the wrong artists.

[@luchalew2884]

The most underrated artist I know.

[@JagulaReally]

First discovered this song after it played in the late 90's on VH1, "Clip of fear" No joke. The whole album's great! Dig in weirdos.

Just found this song - it made me and my fiancee stop in our tracks and me fumble around the shazam thing on my mobile - it reminds me of Television from the get go, she thought Flash and The Pan - how cool to be stood in a door way of a bar desperate to work out what the song is, and to be that excited by a new tune - thanks

[@tomwylo]

Thank you Tom Wek. This is simply great!

[@energylab227]

“In a 1989, black, Mercedes Benz.” Is it weird that he reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite in this video?

[@siamesedreamsx]

Nope, watching this now, had the exact same thoughts about Napoleon Dynamite within ten seconds of the video starting. 👌

[@Bladerunner_2019]

Bought this when it was released. Unsure why it wasn't a massive hit as it's a top song.

[@TRguy64]

I can easily see why it wasn't a massive hit ... it simply has zero rhyme or rhythm !

[@pedrobarros4837]

@@TRguy64 I mean, you're not wrong, mainstream songs usually rely heavily on "four on the floor" rhythm and the cheesy kind of rhymes. So it makes sense that it is more suited as a "hidden gem" than a hit song.

Ok, how did You make this song? I mean background noise from beginning, what instrument is it, guitar? How one makes guitar sound like this? I'm waiting for reply

I see that other people have found the glory that is Tom Vek thanks to you tube suggestions

[@noodlessurprise]

Napoleon Dynamite on skates ... but the beat.

[@dlinkk]

no no. that other guy said that Tom Veck is the the Beck of the 21'st century. i was making fun of him because as we all know of course, Beck is still very much around, and released some of his best music in the last 10 years anyway, this song fucking rules! Talking Heads are cool too

[@PierreRipplinger]

It also reminded me of Beck.
