Daniel was such a sweet and brilliant soul. Despite the hardships he dealt with in life he sung about unconditional care for others, resonant love and deep stigmatized emotions. As well as crafting a warm playful and intrinsically one of a kind art(sound) through his music.
There is a reason why Kurt Cobain and Gibby Haynes and countless other brilliant artists love and were insipired by Daniel Johnson’s music. ♥️
He would definitely be considered an â outsider artist, but I would love to know if any of y’all have ever seen him preform, or even just has a few favorite Daniel Johnston songs.
His music has definitely got me through a lot of “dark nights of the soul”, and I’m quite sure other folks can relate
Soo much brilliant music came from that whole 1980s/early 1990s era in the Texas punk scene
A personal favorite of mine is Casper , of course Something’s last a long time is haunting and so poignant. Don’t let the sun go down on your greviences, Mean girls give pleasure, I Know what I want. Soo many 🥰
Y’all have a favorite?
