We need this man again for 1 song in the 2020’s and then dip again.

Kimbra is doing a magic spell to make people remember this song again

[Asad_.]

Dear stranger.... You have a great taste in See you again after 20 yrs.

[MiTmite]

Anyone else come back to this every once in a while and think, "Man. This song still gets me."

“When the world needed him most, he vanished”

[bellum]

Man just dropped this banger then went back to his planet

In year 2054 :

Grandkid : Who sang this song?
Me : Somebody that I used to know.

One of the greatest one hit wonder in music history. I'm still listening to this in 08/ 2024 . This song will never get old. I have big respect for him for having the guts to just walk away. Being famous wasn't for him.

[bryan-vvrt]

Producer: So what songs are you gonna make after this?

Gotye: No

It’s weird seeing Gotye and Kimbra fully clothed and not covered in paint.

[deadbird]

It’s been over a decade and these vocal harmonies still send me

[joshbalzz]

People all talking about him making one song and leaving. Some people spend a lifetime making just 1 song hoping it will become something like this. He waited and practiced for this moment of this exact song and when it was done he accomplished what he set out to do. Job well done.

The entire time gotye looks like he was trying to hide a laugh

[AaronXVR]

*very rare audio of an artist acctually sounding like they do on the song*

This dude dropped a song and truly became somebody that we used to know

[TheJackdiripper]

One of the greatest songs ever written 👏

[gabemopdx]
