Am I wearing the same shirt from yesterday?
Did I wake up at 12 o'clock in the afternoon?
(unscrews bottle cap)
I mean, hey maybe...
(music plays)
Hey everybody, my name is Daniel and welcome to today's video. Happy Sunday.
Uh, I'm not doing an episode of "Sorry For Oversharing."
That'll happen next week maybe. Hopefully.
I don't know.
Today, though, I'm gonna be doing a very long overdue video that I haven't--
I've been teasing this for a while on my Instagram.
If you don't follow me on Instagram, go to the description below and find my Instagram and follow me.
I do a lot of funny stories. I don't know!
The video I want to do today is my record, uh, collection tour.
I've been collecting records for about two years now,
but the thing about me is that I don't really collect, like, older records...
I just don't listen to enough older artists to, like, be like, "Oh...shit! It's their album right here!"
Um, so what I do--'cause I just like the feel and sound of vinyl records,
so I just buy new albums that I REALLY like...on vinyl...and that's my collection.
A little bit of warning, just in advance: I am not a music person,
so I might say things that, uhhh, sound very, like, hipster-ish or very, like...
...uhhh, you know, just almighty and like, I'm not that. I don't know anything about music.
I just...I just know what I like!
So yeah! I'm just gonna hop into this and just...show you them all.
I don't have them in order or anything. I just have them how I have them.
First up, though, is Young the Giant's...first album.
It's their first album they have.
Um....yeah. I really like Young the Giant a lot,
and the thing about their style is that it never changes, they just keep evolving
and, like, everything they make is just better and better and better. But, their first album is really special to me.
Uh, I listen to it a lot, and I still listen to it a lot. There's a lot of good songs on this one, so...
I have all of Young the Giant's albums in my collection, so the second one I have...is their "Mind Over Matter" album.
This one's great too! I don't know if this--oh, this one does open.
It's just--that's the inside.
Yeah...that's it.
And the last Young the Giant album I have...and I'm probably gonna get their new one too when that album comes out,
but this one is their latest album. It's, uh, "Home of the Strange."
This one...the cover for this is really great.
I love this one a lot. There's just a lot going on in this cover. The inside's pretty cool too!
And then the back side.
Uhh...this album's really great.
I really like Daft Punk a lot, but I like Daft Punk in a weird way.
I haven't heard their new album "Random Access Memories"...
...uhhh, or just, like, any...
It's...it's weird. I just like...their music, but I don't really KNOW, like, the band,
and, like, I just know the music that I like from them and that's it.
But, I should probably...I should probably expand on what I like from them, you know?
But anyway...the first one I got from Daft Punk was, um, their "Discovery" album.
This fucking glare, man. Their "Discovery" album.
THIS album is my favorite Daft Punk album of all time.
Uhh...it's funny 'cause I like Daft Punk, but I got this album and I was, like,
"I never listened to it before, so if I don't like it, then I probably messed up. I probably fucked up and bought it," if I didn't like it.
BUT...I did like it. It turned out pretty good.
Uh, I love ALL the songs on this album. It's just so great.
Oh, here's the inside too, by the way...
So this album...is great. Daft Punk's "Discovery."
You know what I'm gonna do? If you watch to this point...
...I'm gonna put all these albums in, like, a Google Doc and you can see them all
and I'll, like, link where to listen to them. You should listen to these albums. They're really great.
If I like them...then hey, maybe everybody should.
You know? I'm just THAT conceited.
Uh, the next one I got, I got this from, uhh...
...Record Store Day...this year,
and I was, like, "Holy shit, I gotta get it." It's Daft Punk's, um, "Alive" album.
(spaceship noise made with my mouth???)
It's a live concert from 1997...
...and, uh, this is really great.
I haven't really listened to it. I listened to it the day I got it...
...and then I was fucking tired from waking up early to go to the record store that I just fucking knocked out listening to this,
so, uh...that says something! You know, if music can make you fall asleep, THAT'S pretty great.
Uh, next, I have this one...
...I got this from...I got this used...
but, um...listen, for this one,
I don't really like the album that much. I like the one song from the album, it's called "Two Weeks"--
--I should just show it to you. Hold on.
It's Grizzly Bear's, uh, "VeckUHmisssst,"
"VeckTAHmist"?
I don't know how to say it. But it's Grizzly Bear's album,
and I like "Two Weeks," the song "Two Weeks" from this band. That's a really great song.
And I saw it was on here, and it was used for, like...
...I don't know, I think it was five bucks. Maybe ten bucks.
And I was like, "Holy shit, I like this song! Maybe the rest of the album is good..."
...and it wasn't. I don't really like it that much.
It's just not for me! If you like it, that's great.
But, uh, it's not for me. It's not for me!
What can I say?
Next two albums...are LIGHTS. This artist's name is LIGHTS. She's really great.
Uhhh, so I have her "Little Machines" album. This album is...really great.
All of LIGHTS' albums are great. I haven't--she--just like Young the Giant, she just evolves. She's...she's great.
Um, this one though...I'll show you this one!
This one...this one has an orange disc.
It's fucking...this fucking neon orange.
It's fucking great.
And then I have her, uh, "Skin&Earth" album.
Uh, this is her newest album. It's really great too...
...her style has definitely...it hasn't changed but it's definitely evolved.
This ties into her comic book series that she wrote (and illustrated!)
But this one's really cool too! Because of that, the inside...uh, she's right there.
She's drawn with her character in the comic. How fucking great is that?
This one...hold on, I forgot!
I think all of her albums...have colored discs.
This one, though, is, if you haven't guessed it from her hair color in the cover, this one's red!
This is REALLY great. I love this one a lot.
But also, this one, like, there's this one part on Side B that skips a lot.
Like, the whole song it just skips throughout it.
I don't know if I fucked up on that or if it was printed wrong, but, uhhh...
...that's the only song that does that so I don't really mind.
After that one, I have, uh...Robert DeLong's "In The Cards."
LISTEN. Robert DeLong is great!
He does all the music--he's a one man band...
...and his live performances are crazy. I'll put one in the bio.
You can--not my, what?? In the bio? What the fuck?
Is this Instagram? Hello??
I'll put one in the description. Like, he just has this whole, like, computer one-man setup thing
and he's, like, doing shit with, like, a N64 controller and, like, a joystick, and, like, he's just making this fucking great music.
Uh, this album though...
...is his latest album? I don't--I think he's working on another one.
But it's his "In The Cards" album.
Next, I have, uh, my favorite, uh, Death Cab For Cutie album...
...um...it's "Transatlanticism"
This album...IS...perfect?
Like, it's one the best albums that they have. I just love Ben Gibbard. He's great.
He's a fucking talented musician. I don't know how he does this shit. He does it so well.
Speaking of Death Cab, um...
SO...I have my favorite album of all time, EVER, like this is my favorite album. Ever.
I have it on vinyl too. Um, this, because it's so--this is also my first vinyl I ever bought, uh...
...it's very fucked up. I scratched it to hell, 'cause I didn't know what I was doing.
Um, but I still love it a lot! It gives it a lot of charm.
It's The Postal Service's "Give Up." "Give Up" album.
I just...I love this album SO MUCH. I could make a whole video, honestly, just talking about this album
and how much I love it.
This is another perfect album!
Like, I'm literally saying this 'cause I mean it so much. Like, it's just a perfect...PERFECT album.
(gratitfied sigh)
I love--if you haven't listened to The Postal Service, give it a shot and, like, it's wonderful. It's a wonderful album.
Ben Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello, you guys are fucking geniuses. I fucking love you two.
And, that's their only album. The Postal Service is never doing another album again, so...
(might actually be dying inside sigh)
...I love them so much.
This was my second vinyl I ever bought, actually. Wow.
It's The Flaming Lips' "Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots."
Uh...this album is really...strange. So, I didn't know who The Flaming Lips were when I got this...
I saw the cover on it and I, like, listened to one song, just to search it up, like, what kind of music it was,
and I really loved it. So I bought it and I listened to it, the whole time, like, just sitting on the floor of my bedroom,
and I just listened to it. And I was fucking really...taken aback by how good it was.
Like, I just really loved it a lot. It's another beautiful album. And look at this fucking cover.
This cover's great! Look at this.
This is the world I want to live in. You know?
This one!
This one's great. So, um, my friend Haylie,
God, I need to make a video with her, I think,
but, um, she got me this for Christmas, um, two Christmases ago?
Or maybe last Christmas?
I don't really know.
But she got me this for Christmas! It is Porter Robinson's "World"..."Worlds" album.
I love this a lot. I love Porter Robinson's music.
And I was, like, "Wow. I wonder what it sounds like on vinyl," and it sounds...pretty great!
It sounds pretty fucking great, honestly.
The cover art is very beautiful too. That's all I gotta say about this. Just look at it.
Wow. You know?
Next...albums, I have two from this artist...
...um, I have Phoenix--I love the band Phoenix.
I got into their music recently. Um...I have a friend of mine who also is into Phoenix. We talk about Phoenix a lot.
Uh, Phoenix is great. I have this album. I got this album first. It's, uh...this album!
Uh...it's really great. I have a lot of...ugh...I have a lot of memories attached to this album,
which is...I don't listen to it very often, but I still have it 'cause I love it a lot.
Uh, and then I have Phoenix's "United" album.
This one I got recently too. Me and my friend went to the record store and I got this. And, uh, I love it a lot.
It has a lot of good songs. "If I Ever Feel Better", "Summer Days"...(sigh)..."Funky Squaredance."
A lot of great stuff on this album.
Uh, next--Oh my god, hello? I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to kick you.
Uh, next! I got this one.
So, picture this: Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Vol. 2, came out. "Mr. Blue Sky" is a very good song,
and I was like, "Wow...this is pretty good. I wanna hear more of ELO."
And I found a CD of theirs at Wal-Mart and it was, like, the "Best Hits" or whatever.
'Got that. I fucking fell in love with ELO. And then I found this at the record store!
It's "Mr. Blue Sky: The VERY Best of Electric Light Orchestra."
But this one's really cool too because what happened with this...
...is that, um, the main guy from this album, he went back and remastered all of his old songs.
Like, he re-recorded them, all the instruments. He wanted to, like...
(I have no fucking idea what I tried to say here LMAO)
They talk about it in the middle, like right here, the big 'ol text you see right here. On this side.
(tap tap tap)
See the text?
He, like, talked about, like, why he went back and remastered it. 'Cause he wanted to make...
He was like, "Yeah, it sounded good back in the day, but does it sound good now?"
So he wanted to go back and fix everything and, like, make it the best it could be.
I understand that a lot, and this album is really great. All the remastered songs sound perfect.
They're so good.
This one...uhh...again, with my modern taste, I guess, uh, this is Lorde's "Melodrama."
I really love Lorde's first album and so "Melodrama," it was definitely a change.
It was a change of music, of her style, but it felt very much the same.
And, this album is really great and I love the artwork for it.
Aaaand...all the songs on it are great. This is a great listening experience, to me.
Uh, next...in terms of recent artists, I have, uh, Khalid's "American Teen" album.
I like Khalid a lot. I like his music a lot.
This is the one I was talking about that's, like, fucked up.
Side B...uhh...no...
Disc 2, Side B is, like, fucked up. Like, it's super fucked up.
But it's Gorillaz's "Demon Days" album.
Got this recently, um, Haylie actually got it for me.
Thank you, Haylie. Haylie...she's so good to me.
This one...fucked up. Scratched the fuck up.
Umm...on Side C. I haven't heard Side D yet, maybe...or maybe it was Side D.
It's fucked up. And, um...she lost the receipt so we can't really return it.
Uh, so I just have it now. But the first two sides are pretty great. Maybe I need to listen--
--maybe if I listen to it more, maybe I'll be like, "Oh, this isn't that bad."
But it was pretty bad when I listened to it the first time, I'll be honest with you.
But this is the inside!
Uhh, tell me that's not...tell me that doesn't look beautiful, you know?
Look at that shit! Look at that shiiiiiiiiiiit! Oh my god.
Uh, speaking of Gorillaz, I have, uh..."Plastic Beach" too.
This one...I love "Plastic Beach" a lot.
I just love Gorillaz. I didn't really, I wasn't--
--I will admit, I wasn't really that into them when they first were at the height of their popularity,
but then, uhhhh, "Humanz" came out...and I really liked that,
and then I went back and listened to a bunch of their stuff. My friend Vicky, she...likes Gorillaz A LOT.
So, I remember her always telling me to listen to their music...and, uh, Gorillaz is great!
And I'm really excited to listen to "The Now Now" which is out by the time you're watching this.
So, if you haven't listened to it, go listen to it!
But, uh, yeah! "Plastic Beach,"
"Plastic Beach,"
"Plaaaaaastiiiic Beeeeaaacccchhhh!"
(dumb laughing)
Oh my god, okay, so...at Record Store Day 2018, this year again,
I went 'cause I wanted to get THIS album...because I love this band.
It is Chicano Batman's first album remastered on vinyl,
actually, I will admit, hold on, let me do this...
So...I...started listening to Chicano Batman when I heard this album, their "Freedom is Free" album,
which is super great, if you love--if you haven't heard Chicano Batman, uhhhhhhhh...
...that's fine. But I love them a lot. This one's cool too. This has an orange disc.
Ooooooooo...
(laughs)
...wooooooow. This one's my favorite.
I love this one so much, and this album is SO great!
Um, but yeah, so I fell in love with Chicano Batman...based on this album,
yeah, so, I wanted to hear more of their music. I did that. I listened to their second album...
...uh, but I never listened to their first album. So I was like, "What the fuck?",
but then I saw...that they were re...reprinting it on vinyl for Record Store Day
and I wanted to go get it. So I, like, woke up early to go to the record store to get this and I got it!
Well, it didn't even sell out. I don't know why I was rushing to get it. I just thought, maybe it would.
BUT, I'm going off on a ramble. But, I got the first album...the Chicano Batman self-titled album.
I never listened to it before and then I listened to it when I got home, and this album is really great too.
It's a really great listening experience.
Here's the back of it too.
I love it a lot, so...Chicano Batman? It's great. I love them a lot.
Those were all bands, all of my bands albums. These are all, like, soundtracks...
orrr....ummm...yeah, they're soundtracks.
So this one is...I have the Scott Pilgrim...movie...soundtrack.
It's not the score, it's the songs from the movie. So it has, like, all the Sex Bob-omb songs,
it has, um..."Black Sheep" on it, it has "Ramona" on it...
Um...this one's cool too 'cause it's another colored one!
It is...you can probably see it. I fucked up. It's red.
It's red. Oh my god, and look at it!
Look at the middle!
Woooow. Wooooooow!
(I hate this laugh so much.)
Um, but yeah, Scott Pilgrim is one of my favorite movies of all time...and I love the soundtrack a lot.
I wish, I REALLY WISH, that this had Brie Larson's "Black Sheep" version on it 'cause I love her version a lot.
No diss to Metric's version, that's really great too.
Brie Larson, man...what can't she do, you know? What CAN'T she do?
Uh, next, I love--so hold on...
(STUPID STUPID LAUGH)
...I like musicals a lot. Um, and I love THIS musical a lot, this is, uhhh...the musical's called Waitress.
It's really great. I've never "seen" it, like in person, but I love the show a lot.
And, I saw this at a Barnes and Noble. Barnes and Noble has records in the back, at some of them,
so if wanna start somewhere, you can start there. If that's close to you.
But, um, I got this there. It's Sara Bareilles singing all the songs from Waitress before Waitress was even on Off-Broadway.
Um...there it is! And she's just so great.
Sara Bareilles can do anything. It's just so fucking great. Like, Waitress is THAT good.
If you like musicals. If you don't like musicals, then I don't know.
That's...you can do whatever you want.
Just continue living on with your life. I don't know.
We're on the final three records of my collection.
Um, no we're not. I lied. Forget that.
(I think I tried saying "I have" and started laughing here)
I have the Black Panther soundtrack...on vinyl.
Uhhh, this one's really great.
It's the songs from the movie. They released the, you know, you've all heard the songs!
"All The Stars", "Pray For Me", "Paramedic", "The Ways"...
This fucking one. THIS fucking album...
The disc is colored green. It's a green disc.
Look at that shit!
Ahhh, that's so great.
You know, if you ask me, it should've been purple 'cause purple was a very...like, prominent...color...uh, in the movie...
but, hey...green is also very pretty.
I love this a lot.
And the album is just great. There's A LOT of good songs on it. Kendrick Lamar, like, fucking killed it on that fucking album, dude.
Um, and I have Master of None's Season Two soundtrack.
And, uh, I remember watching the show, and I love the show a lot, but I was like, "The music? Was there music in this? I don't really remember the music."
Uh, I listened to this album...and I was like, "Oh god, this music was great! How did I miss out on this?"
There's a lot of good songs on this album.
This compilation, I guess it's a compilation, right?
I don't know...
But this is a really cool...I love this album a lot too because of the color of this disc.
Because...
You're not gonna get your mind--oh my god! No, I fucking showed it off!
Don't look at that! Pretend you didn't see that!
Your mind's not gonna be blown yet, because I have another one, but this one's white!
(laughing)
The color is white! Oh my...look how pretty that looks!
It's just fucking solid white. I love it a lot!
Like, sometimes I don't want to listen to it. I just wanna, like, look at the color of the disc and, like, be amazed by how pretty it looks, you know?
Ugh, oh my god, dude.
Then this soundtrack, this compilation is just great. It's a great soundtrack.
I don't know. If you watch Master of None Season Two, listen to the music in the show 'cause it's fucking great.
Whoever fucking put this album together, they did a really good job picking good songs for it 'cause I love this album a lot.
I love the soundtrack a lot!
You know what? After I record this video, I'm gonna listen to that soundtrack.
I'm gonna listen to it and see if it's still good. Haven't heard it in a while.
The last of my big LPs that I have is, uh, it's a video game.
It's the soundtrack for it. It's Celeste.
The original soundtrack for Celeste.
This game is really great, if you haven't played it already. It's on Switch, PS4, Xbox probably, PC...
...I don't know. It's a GREAT platformer game.
I love...the story of it, and the music is fucking FANTASTIC...
Oh my god, the music is great. It's fucking great.
Um...and this one, when I got it in the mail, I knew on the thing it said "clear."
Like, the option for the disc was "clear" and I just thought "white." You know, like "white" like the uh...like the Master of None one. It's just gonna be white.
Um, but no! When it said clear...
...like it meant CLEAR.
LIKE SEE THROUGH.
This is my favorite re--oh my god, I almost just broke it. Fuck. I'm an idiot.
But, uh...
(ogre laugh)
This is my favorite...record that I own!
'Cause it's--look at that! You can see ME...in the background of it. And my hair fucking went up right now.
That's it for all my big LPs! I have two little 45s (singles) that I want to show off just...um...to end this video with...
I have, uh, this Steven Universe one!
Uh, it has, uhhhhh, "Stronger Than You" on one side and it has an acoustic version of "Love Like You" on the back side.
And uh...it's pretty great! I love it a lot.
And the other one I have is Porter Robinson and Madeon's, uh, "Shelter"...
...on a 45. And it's just the song.
Um...I have more...um, records...they're my grandpa's.
Um, from you know, the (60s)/70s and the 80s,
Um...maybe I'll do another video showing those off? But I haven't really listened to them all.
I don't really what's in there. I know a few of them that were pretty good, but I don't know all of them to, like...
...be like, "Oh yeah, I love these! These are really great!"
They're just...I just brought them upstairs so I could give them somewhere to be instead of being in the garage, you know?
Um...oh my god! Wait, I forgot one that I got also at Record Store Day.
My mom loves 80s music and so, because of that, I also love 80s music just by association, really...
...um, but this band has some really good music, maan.
Like, it's great. And they had this...uh...record that just had the song I really like from them and another one,
and it was like, for like, five bucks, or maybe ten bucks...
Why do I always get five dollars and ten dollars confused? That's a lot of money.
I can buy a lot of chicken nuggets with that, you know?
But, uh...it's Culture Club's! Culture Club's "Time (Clock of the Heart).
Boy George right here!
This album, when I found it on fucking sale, I was like, "Hell yeah, I gotta get it!"
And it sounds great! It sounds really good still.
Whoever owned this, it was used so, whoever owned it before me, they loved this album just as much as I...will now.
Yeah...thank you for watching.
Next week, next Sunday, I will have another "Sorry For Oversharing" video.
I don't know what to talk about yet, so I don't wanna tease anything right now.
You know, if you liked the first one, let me know!
And if you liked this record collection tour, let me know too. I can do something else, like another tour...
...maybe like a comic tour right here?
Or just a book shelf tour?
Who knows? I'm on the floor right now, of my fucking...room, so...
