Daniel Johnston and bringing back retro

So first let me start off by saying how very sorry I am for my over due posts.  Lately I have had a boat load of homework, so just bare with me.  Second, while I decided tonight was the perfect time for procrastination, I started watching trailers.  I found this interesting international film called Sidwalls.  I found this adorable song that even gives me hope for my life.  The song is called True love will find you in the end.  It is by a singer/ songwriter Daniel Johnston.  He was born in 1961 but he was also a visual artist, which makes him even cooler.

I could give you guys a whole detailed/ more organized explanation of why this song is worthwhile. All I have to say is it makes believe that there’s someone out there.  So if your blue about love, life, or people in general this song is for you.  In addition, I’m going to let you guys be the judge this time.  Since I only want to hear your opinions I’m posting the music video but also the lyrics and would really love it if you guys told me some of your thoughts.  Here are the lyrics and audio recording:

True love will find you in the end- Daniel Johnston

Lyrics to the song:

True love will find you in the end
You’ll find out just who was your friend
Don’t be sad, I know you will,
But don’t give up until
True love finds you in the end.

This is a promise with a catch
Only if you’re looking will it find you
‘Cause true love is searching too
But how can it recognize you
Unless you step out into the light?
But don’t give up until
True love finds you in the end.
