How To Make Fake Weed To Sell

Daniel Johnston - Silly Love

Vi the documentary "The Devil and Daniel Johnston" yesterday, the truth is that I really liked. I do not know what to make of Daniel Johnston. For every twenty minutes of film, just do not see how great it is. When they speak of "Hi, How Are You" gave me the impression they were talking about "Blonde On Blonde" and "Revolver" merged into a single disk, but when I got to hear it, just do not understand nothing.

however, and is a "however" important, every twenty minutes, a couple of minutes when Daniel Johnston brings all his genius, and I just was completely glued to the screen, without understanding what was happening.


The first time was practically the beginning of the documentary, in which Daniel Johnston comes on stage, and not long ago, and after being introduced as "the best singer / songwriter alive today" (Bob Dylan still alive, ah), he started playing "Silly Love".

I'm not good at describing feelings, so I will not, and simply put the song (studio version though), so let's listen and impress. I liked that the first few seconds are like that too cliché, but just have had time to think, and Daniel Johnston responds with a sincerity that simply can not be underestimated.

Once again, enjoy.
