My friends in California love this guy. Moral of the story...don't move to California.

walk away from your computer
sit outside in the sun for 10 minutes
and your translucent skin will thank you
as well as your bitter bouts of depression
you wish they sold a sense of humor at Amoeba

1. it's supposed to be funny.
2. it IS funny.
3. get your hipster heads out of your asses and realize it for what it is, a good song with an even better video that was probably ridiculously fun to make.

The video is great, the song is pretty damned good, too.
God forbid someone do something that doesn't just show them playing "live," banging their heads over their Nord keyboards and twiddling their knobs (both literal and figurative).

this blows
I'm glad his musical five minutes of fame are over
the tabloids can have him

This looks alot more racist than that Johnny Rotten comment.

i like the song. i don't think the video is "cute" or "funny" or whatever white people think of other "goofy" cultures...
Posted by Anonymous | July 21, 2008 11:12 PM
i've never liked him but honestly i do now because his relationship with portman gives me hope that i may one day have a chance with her, because if he can, anyone can.

I've hung out with Devendra and he's actually way smarter than 90% of the morons who read this blog
soooo, no, you don't really have a chance
Posted by Anonymous | July 22, 2008 12:03 AM
So he's smarter than people who post on a blog! Big deal! Not exactly the gold standard for excellence as a human being, that.
Oh, and as far as that video goes: BARRRFFFFF.

What is Devendra dosing her with is the question. Does anyone have any info? Crack love is the deepest kind of love.....

12:03- was he nice? Because I somehow get the feeling that he's an asshole. Don't ask me how.

I didn't care much for the song, but the video was great.
Posted by pants | July 22, 2008 2:56 AM
Wow. So anyone who thinks this is a flaming pile of shit doesn't have a sense of humor, needs to get outside more, doesn't understand how nice he is, only likes videos of bands playing live, is a hipster, etc etc etc..
Sure. Right. Grow the fuck up. If you like it, fine. If you don't, fine. But the tender little souls who are offended and dispensing their judgement on those who don't are really fucking annoying.

Jews mocking Hindus, nice.
Boy I'd love to give her a hate-fuck.

What is this? First single from The Love Guru soundtrack?

1:42,
He is nice, albeit a little pretentious. Not sure he was in the best of moods when I hung out with him the first time. Second time he was much more animated and such a sweetheart.

I'm pretty offended by this, yeah. what the hell. granted he's got an indian name, but he's no king khan. Oh no.

As a Hindu i'm offended. today i begin to ban natali portman. ps somebody tell him to put his bush away
barf
Posted by nikolai | August 28, 2008 6:57 PM
hate this guy i think more Hindus should know about him, 800 million against one Venezuelan. lets see how it turns out

Hinduism is not a race; no racial slur is possible. It is only a belief system, one of many in Southeast Asia. All belief system can be worn like coats. And like coats, they can be modified, danced in, badges sewn on, and cast off.
If the coat breaks it was a pretty poor quality coat.
It looks like Devendra and Natalie had fun, good for them. I see Hinduism has survived unscathed. No one got hurt, move on. Go about your daily business.
