That's Your Boyfriend: Nocturne
This is Nocturne, and this is his theory about people with the last name "Smith," and this is his cover of Elliott Smith's "Needle In The Hay." It's slightly funnier if it's real, but funny either way:
You need to get your boyfriend Nocturne off heroin. (Thanks to Alexander, who points out this is right up there with the Worst Neutral Milk Hotel Cover Of All Time, for the tip!)

"I almost wish my name was Nocturne Smith", as if Nocturne wasn't a made up name. Perfect.
You outdid yourself today, Linds.
Score = 4
Essentially, this is what the average American thinks Brooklyn looks like. (well at least 1/3 -- the other 2/3 being early 90's rave enthusiasts and avant-garde street performers throwing balloons of menstrual blood at you and hissing like cats, 'cause you know, counterculture)
Do you think Nocturne put cigarettes out on his arm to collect ash for the wonderful art on the wall behind him?

Oh man. This weirdo looks like a cross between Wolverine and John Kerry when he came back from Vietnam.
Score = 8
I was thinking he looks like Wolverines slacker EMO son that is living in his basement.

I'm in love with a chin strap, and I don't care who knows it!

helloooo!? you forgot kevin smith and the good prophet joseph smith.

It's ok to pretend your name is Nocturne. But pretending it is Nocturne SMITH? Now that's just going too far.
Score = 1
I never knew their last names were Morrissey Smith and Johnny Marr-Smith. Thanks for clarifying, Nocturne!
Score = 12
dude, you forgot will smith.
Score = 9
There's NO WAY this is real. But if it is, it's hilarious/pathetic. If it isn't, it's hilarious/brilliant satire.
Score = 2
Yeah, I think it's actually funnier if it's not real. Have we learned nothing from the old, creepy pedophile guy? Fiction is safe; real life is sad and dangerous.
Score = 7
Either way, I'm totally subscribing to that shit.
Score = 1
"I wish my name was Nocturne Smith, cause it would really represent the facelessness that comes with a name as common as Smith, you know, the very drudgery of everyday life."....um, what?
Score = 1
He forgot John Smith too. JAMESTOWN ,YEAH!
Score = 3
He forgot about Michael W. Smith.
Score = 3
i like his drawings of the post-apocalyptic world in the background.
Score = 6
"Excuse me, I'm John Smith."
"John Smith, 1882?"
"My mistake."
Obscure Simpsons references, FTW.

The saddest sniffles.
Score = 1
personally I like the licorice Neutral Milk Hotel guy better ....
But if Nocturne and licorice boy came together and did a Neutral Milk Hotel song then really I think nothing could bet that
Score = 0
No, it's real. I don't think there's anyone that good. He's far too convinced of his own superiority to be fake.
Check out his Worst Day Ever video. His account of his worst day ever begins with "So I went to Best Buy" and contains a Limp Bizkit quote.
Score = 0
I like how he always has his terrible drawings in the back ground. Personally I think its all an act. The turttle necks and eye shadow whilst waxing poetic about the nature of "Smith" is all a con to pick up dumb wannabe-hipster highschool girls. After he turns the camera off I bet he starts up his moms sewing machine and gets crackin on his new Naruto cosplay outfit or somethgin equally gay.
Score = -1
The Smiths? Nobody in that band has the last name of Smith, stupid......... And you forgot Patti Smith.

My favorite parts are when he throws in head back in Elliot Smith induced orgasmic bliss.
