Imagine going for a walk in the local park and Mac DeMarco floats by you with an acoustic guitar and some red socks playing a chill song.

[ineffablemars]

I like the sound of the children playing in the background

Gives it atmosphere

[noelle]

I've never met him but he feels like a very nice homeless friend

[logical]

Am I the only one impressed by the fact that he can stand up and walk around while playing his guitar WITHOUT A STRAP?

[tylerc]

How fucking cool. That little diddy Mac plays from 0:25 - 0:40 is "To Zanarkand" from Final Fanstasy X. I mean how fucking cool. You just know he was like any one of us, captivated by the world he found himself playing in and loved it so much he had to learn, what essentially is, the theme song to the game. Fucking love Mac

[L.O.Hammmm]

Loud ambiance, screaming kids, sirens, interruptions, and STILL one of the best Take Aways I've seen. It works with the looseness of Mac's style, and it speaks to the purity of what Take Away Shows truly are. Thank you for the honest art.

[sunnyblayney]

he should make an album of him playing his songs walking through a park with all the noises and stuff. That would be amazing

[dashjones]

still beating + this old dog = still beating this old dog. mac demarco comes clean about his animal abuse

[BloomsArchitect]

Part of his charm and what makes Mac unique is his approachable, unpretentious, easygoing demeanor as an artist. Unfortunately, that is not a common thing nowadays

[joep]

That opening rendition of 'FFX - To Zanarkand' lives rent free in my head. Simply wonderful

[nomad]

Being recorded
Talking
No guitar strap
Walking around in public

And still

Nailing guitar
And singing beautifully

What kind of mythical creature is this?

[cullencochran]

is Mac just a collective imaginary friend willed into reality through every good vibe that flows through us? 0_o

[Beilschmidt-art]

I'm french and his interactions and giggles warm my heart so much. This is so peaceful, such a Mac thing.

[TheRealSandorClegane]

at first glance I read "Mac DeMarco - Still beating his old dog" I was like damn Mac wtf bro

[Dieselx]

dude this version of Still Beating is out of this world

[falldamageOO]

I want a whole cover of "There She Goes" by Mac DeMarco now

[annypannysanny]

"Got some kids in the bushes, oh yeah"

[paulmarsh]

Mac has the rare talent of making you feel like he has been a friend that you've had for a long time.

[mtndewlova]

I feel Mac is so over joyed and has that goofball thing about until he sings "the never meant to sing my tune for everyone else out there but you" the whole aura turns from very goofy to melancholy. You can see in his face too. He's feeling something when that line hits and afterward

[DiegoMartinez]

I deployed to the Mediterranean Sea in 2022. I bought YouTube premium and downloaded this video. Any time I wanted to escape my surroundings I would play this and it was amazing every time. Thank you Mac 🙏🏽
