[@ConfusedandConfused]

Kevin you literally make life worth living

[@Ivybeck2000]

I could listen to four more hours of this, man.

[@kendrashawnta]

Kevin Parker is a musical genius! Can't wait for the new album to drop!! 😁😁😁😁

[@DoozieDoodle]

Kevin should remix the Thomas the tank engine song

[@mrSam3ooo]

it's a good song

[@ZachariahMustafa]

shit slaps. would back that.

[@emskow2012]

YAAAAAS

[@TAYLORHWALL]

maaan, you might be onto something there!

[@chuuweec.8080]

He really doesn't give anything away. Iove and hate that about him.. I'm really really intrigued about the LP4.. because i imagine this album is going to be more of a long overdue album that he feels compromised to do. The only thing i can say IS that anything kevin parker writes/produces regardless of the lack of inspiration there is to the song there's always something magical and explosive about it.

[@brokendreams4562]

Right?! Lol

[@blksheepramirez]

What is there to give away? A genius never gives away his secrets, come on now brother

[@mariahspapaya]

chuuwee C. Borderline fucking moves me, man. I’m getting blue balls for this new album

[@denisepaulsenful]

I really hope LP4 uses synths that sound similar to the synths on Lonerism. They are psychadelic bliss!

[@hazza3786]

he wont its pop psyc albums now

[@needlessoptions]

Hopefully they're better

[@plexphobic]

[@sands-bk2ig]

You have great taste in music, love your channel! Thanks for the "chat" over at IG :)❤

[@washedinsilver1]

I can't believe Daniel did that lol. Tell him, I don't know him anymore 😜 jokes aside. Sure np, thanks. Bit inactive these days, due to work/ studies.

[@sands-bk2ig]

[@robertcortez8139]

[@brokendreams4562]

What fucking legend! I love HOW "normal" he seems. Like no bullshit ego standing in the way. He's so talented yet seems so unaware of it. Its like he is just slowly grasping it, after ppl wanted to work with him. This album is gonna be the death of me. He says nothing about it basically lmao

[@starcity751]

He’s defo aware he’s talented. He’s just not a boastful wanker.

[@justinbrown8214]

Because he knows how much work hes put into his music, to him it's not some magical gift people pass off as "talent".

[@the_ironic_goldfish4403]

[@deltaframes-os4km]

does anyone remember a band from Perth circa 2004 called End of Fashion?.

[@msergio0293]

When is he fucking going to release its next álbum!!???

[@hippiecheezburger5457]

I keep asking how he’s on tour with only two new songs and the same set list from 4 years ago..,

[@ramirezt.649]

Its Tim Impulah man.

[@JM-co6rf]

I had this totally wrong idea of him as this stuck up snotty hipster creative. He's totally just a dude.

[@dangray8708]

Don't believe anything

[@Tapez]

By the music that he makes, why would you assume that?

[@dusa605]

@@Tapez Im surprised someone would think that of him especially. I mean, he couldve called the band Kevin Parker and The Tame Impalas lol

[@Tapez]

K C exactly what I’m saying man. He is such a humble person

[@bwebb90]

Because that's what the people who copy him are like.

[@dollarbillfilms7616]

Where'd you find these old pics of KP? Super interesting seeing his teenage years.

[@brokendreams4562]

Dude, they are like all over tumblr such sites
