Daniel Johnston

OccultHawk · 11-19-2014, 11:00 AM

I just heard his song, his version, True Love Will Find You in the End, in a Firestone truck commercial. I hope he got a good pay check. He deserves to make money. I guess it's just selfishness but it makes me feel even sadder than I did already. Sorry, Daniel. I don't hold it against you if you read this. I don't have any right to say.

He's not reading this.

Maybe he's a self-googler.

Dude he is so out of his tree, the words internet, and google mean nothing to him....

Now FUNERAL HOME...well completely different story.

I encourage fans of Daniel Johnston to listen to a record called Gentle Peace by Roger Lee Hall.

I found out about Daniel Johnston several years ago, when a friend told me about his documentary and mentioned his proposed Mountain Dew commercial that he made while institutionalized. It's too bad the TV networks turned it down, I highly recommend looking for it on YouTube.

Daniel Johnston is a weird artist. The stuff he recorded on his ****ty tape recorder at home sounds alot better than his studio stuff. He sounded like an artist who had alot of unfulfilled potential but when he tried to fulfill that potential on a professional level it wasn't the same, something was lost along the way.
