THE END OF THE LINE | The Stupendium & Dan Bull | Choo-Choo Charles Song!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 มี.ค. 2023
- On the remote island of Aranearum something has awoken... Part beast, part locomotive, Charles has arisen and the rails aren't safe. Where did he come from? Why is he here? What will this do to the price of an off-peak commuter season ticket?
These are the questions you must answer. Summoned to the island as a famed monster hunter, the islanders need you to take Charles down. But Charles isn’t your only problem…
Certain islanders think the best way to keep Charles from eating them is to make sure Charles never goes hungry…
Here we go! First big production video of the year! And an absolute blast to get to work with Dan again on a big, fun, spooky collab!
And before you say anything, I know the game is really just an industrial railway but for the purposes of this video let’s imagine it also features a small passenger line. We had access to a beautiful little heritage railway station so were we NOT gonna use it?
Lots of firsts on this project! CG environment extension! 3D printing! Exciting to explore new processes to help grow even larger projects going forwards! A huge thank you to the entire team who helped put this together. My on-set and behind the scenes crew, the various CG artists who worked on this with me, this project couldn’t have happened with you all! And the same goes for every one of my patrons, thank you all too for making this project possible!
Lots more cool things on the way this year! Stay tuned!

LYRICS:
INTRO
Sleeping deep beneath the sleepers of the isle
There’s a demon creature dreaming, heathen and reviled
Sees no rhyme or reason but for feasting when he’s riled
Better let him be, lest you are sure to see the smile
Of sixteen tonnes of scurrying death
Smouldering souls through funnel of red
With a pick-like grin on the front of his head
Sat atop a most illogical number of legs
VERSE 1
Tickets, please! Let me tell you the tale
Of a wicked beast, that’ll follow your trail
Through the valleys and vales, on your tail day and night
There’ll be chaos on the rails when the railway strikes
Stop, take stock, try to gauge the situation
‘Fraid your train has been derailed, there’s no use waiting in the station
Every engine’s been dismantled, there’s no other service coming
Charles is leading by example, he’s the only train that’s running
All in all, we're in a doozy of a mess
So, all aboard the WTF express
Should you want to stay safe, then I wouldn’t play games
Or you’ll learn another way of saying, “Run away! TRAIN!”
CHORUS
Every life has a light in the tunnel ahead
But you might just find that behind it instead
Of a heaven is an engine and the devil inbred
And we’re next on the menu if we’ve left him unfed
Charlie
Your timetable says it’s almost time for tea
Charlie
And we’ve laid on quite a spread, as you can see
There’s a choo-choo train
Coming after you
Food chain’s
Gone a bit askew
Won’t catch that train
If it’s gonna catch you
VERSE 2
For certain worse than what they say to mind the gap for
The train’s not just cancelled, it’s damn well deplatformed
Since it scampered off the tracks to find a snack from off your back lawn
Couple jackdaws and your cat and then your dad from off the back porch
He’s hungry and he’s hunting down the islanders
With a side of any siding-hiding bystanders
Quite queer what his dietary requirements are
But it’s pretty clear regardless he’s a dining car
Coke? Coal? Petroleum? Alone they’ll never do
No, this engine sends the scent of rendered flesh out from the flue
On this service we’ll be serving something rather more unnerving
Chugga-chugging on blood as he chew-chews you
It’s all true, choo-choos consume fuel too
Humans are a whole new consumable and whole food
Gluten free range and more renewable than coal too
So, who to choose to chew to this tune? Ooh, you’ll do
CHORUS
Every life has a light in the tunnel ahead
But you might just find that behind it instead
Of a heaven is an engine and the devil inbred
And we’re next on the menu if we’ve left him unfed
Charlie
Your timetable says it’s almost time for tea
Charlie
And we’ve laid on quite a spread, as you can see
Charlie
If we sate your lust for flesh on which to feed
Charlie
Will you promise to eat them instead of me?
There’s a choo-choo train
Coming after you
Food chain’s
Gone a bit askew
Won’t catch that train
If it’s gonna catch you
MIDDLE 8
Engine, engine number nine
On the Aranearum mining line
If your train comes off the track
Better run, better run, or you won’t come back
VERSE 3
Hey, guess who! This is déjà vu
Like HS2, you’ll be railed right through
Penetrated in the vein of a mainline route
When we come, well then, we’re gonna run a train on you
You might say we’ve got a loco motive
To provide the train with a load of groceries
Locally sourced from the local folk, dear
Granny’s s’posed to host, although she’s toast when the smoke clears
The el choo-choopacabara, the beast come to dine
And it’s far worse than leaves that he leaves on the line
You’ll see when he feasts in the deep of the night
By the pieces of people-y debris left behind
Riding off-peak? Don’t be ridiculous
The worth of your season ticket is
Quickly diminishing with every pillock
We’re feeding into his gleaming scissorous teeth
But if we seem insidious
We’re just uneasy villagers
Seeking to keep the most hideous beast
We unleashed from committing the deed of killing us
If killing a priest, a vicar, a grocer or postman or three is villainous?
Well, what’s it to me? You probably see the feast is imminent
Keep on screaming, pump the bellows, he’ll be drawn to your duress
Charlie loves a little murder on the goriest express
You can ruminate on whether there’s a certain train near
Or pray that it’s a rumour made to circulate fear
But in case you didn’t hear then I better make clear
This train terminates here
CHORUS
Every life has a light in the tunnel ahead
But you might just find that behind it instead
Of a heaven is an engine and the devil inbred
And we’re next on the menu if we’ve left him unfed
Charlie
Your timetable says it’s almost time for tea
Charlie
And we’ve laid on quite a spread, as you can see
Charlie
If we sate your lust for flesh on which to feed
Charlie
Will you promise to eat them instead of me?
There’s a choo-choo train
Coming after you
Food chain’s
Gone a bit askew
Won’t catch that train
If it’s gonna catch you
Your sing voice is awesome
I guess you could say you’re rhymes are on the track in more ways than one! MWAHAHAHAHAHA
thank you for the lyrics of the song and for the song itself, it came out beautiful 👍
I was gifted that very colorful Stupendium Hawain shirt, I love it! 😁Can I play with madness?
Wait hold up at the point I’ve put this up the video came 20 mins ago but this comment was 43???
The fact this had a intro scene as if it was a movie or video game cutscene is absolutely incredible
I saw that and my first thought was: “Holy crap, there’s an interconnected Stupendium universe!”
Yeah xD
@@joshuajarret6907 as matpat once said: "LOOOOOOOOOOORRRREEEE!!!"

Not only that, there's different dialogue depending on if you select Dan Bull or Stupendium
"the trains not just cancelled, it's damn well deplatformed"
HE DID NOT JUST-
I'm only getting it now. 😆
I'm completely unaware of most things train related, so I still don't get it.
@@ChaseVaccaro-ge3gk try to think about it in internet terms.
@@blakksheep736 oh, Twitter cancellation?
@@ChaseVaccaro-ge3gk and the deplatforming too.
"this train terminates here" is the kind of line a cheesy villain would say before rapidly running backwards into darkness while laughing maniacally
Well, that, or when someone's about to go on a rampage on a train.
Alastor voice
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN

The fact that Stupes and Dan had to do 50% of the acting blind because of the freaky masks and still did it better than I could do while seeing with both eyes feels criminal

Average self-hater
Honestly, to see Charles being spoiled like this with an actual railroad location, fully detailed costumes, and an ACTUAL TRAIN??! You are criminally underrated, man! If I haven't said that enough times already.
its stuff like this that makes me hoppe say..
if the creators of the source material might do a lill kick back , and in turn this duo might get material for a follow up and spark some more grass root pr! pro on pro as they say..
after all ,say the first game concept , just bit more polished and with the full risk charlie might hunt you in the wilds if it detects you as it roams , and have these guys improv some random generated lunes you can encounter singing ^^
or better ..put it all underground with a 'radio channel' you can tune into as player in sprawling ..hive.. like caverns with tunnels between and a far more 'meaty' train for possible group play to try and survive charlies daughters that have way more options to both lay in ambush or try stalk crew that might get tempted to venture just a lillllll but out of sight from the train/mobile bunker in the desperate breaks to get scraps to patch up and upgrade or fuel to stay ahead ...of the swarm! long enough to race through those caves and tunnels to warn the mainland , something eldritch been awoken! ....or just endless mode to see how long various smucks of small channel entertainer groups like mark & friends can survive the vengeance of chariles daughters hungering for the blood of those that killed papa! XD
So any scps mtf working on this?
According to shwabadi, the train they're on was actually just the box they're in and the cylinder infront... Every thing else is CGI. Also, the chalk and the blackboard behind shwabadi in the intro is also CGI, that board was empty on the day of filming. Again, this is all according to shwabadi.
Eyyyyyyyy other research personelle make TH-cam accounts to
Hey which scp number should we give charle?
I'm CHUFFED with how this video came out! Haha, nobody reply to this comment with a train pun.
I am having a train-brain understanding these lyrics maaaan...... also there are waaaay more Charles trains so we need to kill them all!
Y'all went off the rails with this one!
I heard the STEAM reviews are pretty good
Trying to railroad us into replying tain puns aye?
Some of these comments confuse me, you guys should get back on track.
HOW DID IT TAKE ME THIS LONG TO REALIZE THE BEAT IS A TRAIN CHUFFING ALONG HOLY CRAP THAT IS GENIUS
Wait- wat- wait really? QwQ

God, the chemistry between Stupes and Dan is INCREDIBLE! In every scene it's clear y'all are having an incredible time and constantly playing off eachother's zaniness!

I love how every stupendium song that’s released I start off thinking it’s good and then it slowly grows to be the only thing I listen to for a month.
This is the most relatable comment😅
Ikr once I listen to a song it’s the only one I watch for the next week or month then go find another one or listen to it again
No but actually though, then every couple months i revisit every single on if his songs. Just the wordplay and puns alone in these songs is insane, excluding the music videos and replayability
You too aye?
Then you release you are 10 years older.
My thanks goes to the unknown passenger for his sacrifice to make Charlie a happy murder-locomotive and thus sparing our most precious Stupes and Dan. You will always be remembered as saviour of musical greatness. Bless you.
Thanks indeed!
Also:
Murder+Locomotive= murdermotive
That would be Schwabadi!
@@dunnydunn458 “watson, i must say… wtf”
Schwabadi, I thank you for your sacrifice! I'd have done it myself, but I wasn't in the video.
F
fun fact i don't know if this was intentional or not but at the part where he says "If this train doesn't get here in the next five minutes i should go absolutely mad" if you go forward exactly 5 mins Charles is there so he never went mad after all
4
And did you miss the Five minutes later card at the beginning
4:56 imagine if he was saying something like "oh no it is Dan bull he is going to rap to me oh no where is the Stupendoum?" That would be crazy innit?
Can we just take the time to admire the "Run away! Train" and "Dining car" puns?
"W T F express" was my favorite
Still can’t get over “this train’s not just cancelled it’s damn well deplatformed”
@asdf ghjk Same imo that’s the best line in here for the humor value alone.
"Railway strikes" is another one I like
The whole "run a train on you" verse is great.
That was such a good use of Sixteen Tons as a reference. Your ability to keep the rhyming scheme while making it about a killer spider train is just beautiful.
Is it a reference to the song Sixteen Tons? I don't get the connection other than just the words. Is that song about a railway?
@@porkchopsensei2742 Yeah, it's about loading railcars full of coal in a corporation owned town.
It's what happens when governments and corporations work together.
@@porkchopsensei2742 As Edison said but also listen to how they sing the lyrics and the music itself in that section. "Oh sixteen tonnes of scurrying death" sounds very close to "You load sixteen tons and what do you get" so on and so forth in that little section. It's very clever.
"You load sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt!"
I also loved the Engine Engine No. 9 reference.
"You might say we've got a loco-motive..." I'm floored. The amount of puns you guys do while still making amazing music is truly astounding! Kudos to you all, another amazing song I'll be listening to for a long time, looking forward to the next one 👍
I KNOW RIGHT?
I love that this line has 3 meanings. ! being a train. 2 being a crazy train. and 3 being that they have a crazy motive for kidnapping Shwabadi
Dan Bull and The Stupendium are simply too powerful when teamed up together. They sing two bars and I'm already adding their new song to my playlist.
Stupendium’s production value is finally getting CLOSE to matching the quality of their songs. It’s truly a speacial thing to watch an artist you’ve watched since the beginning finally get what they deserve. Love you, Stupes.
Give them a few more songs and it will be matched
Have to disagree as I feel the quality of both has always matched since they're both incredible.
Bro I absolutely love both but ain’t no way the songs are better
@@orangelake2268* them !
@@orangelake2268 them
'Sixteen tons of scurrying death' is my favorite way of describing Choo-Choo Charles.
I look forward to watching all of your musical dreams come true this year!
Its callback to a old song called “16 tons” and it’s song in the same tempo and melody.
Its also my gave line
@@TheDuck1234
I fucking KNEW it sounded familiar.
Let's just hope Big Boy doesn't turn into a spider like Choo Choo Charles, Instead of 16 tons of scurrying death, it would be 604 tons of thundering destruction!
True, that line really DOES slap
Something that doesn't get mentioned is how the train is *Flying* down the tracks, it really implies the desparation of the characters you're playing, before leading to the Insanity that overtakes them. Bravo
You blew me away with "The train's not just canceled, it's damn well deplatformed" and the lyrics that comes before that. It is so clever and at the same time it fits narrative of a song so good.
The fact that you built a train from the game is absolutely sending me off the rails. The song itself has my engines fired up and rearing to go full speed. Like, G-jeez dude, your productions keep making me more and more envious! Beautiful as a Mallard my guy, sharing this to the group chat (yet again)
Well, can’t say I was expecting this, but I’m glad to have another Stupendium song, especially with Danbull helping out. What an absolute fever dream of a song about a fever dream!
"Charles is the only train that's running." Yeah. Running. That dad joke will get you sent straight to hell, Stupes
He might already be there. I haven't heard of a vehicle this unhinged in Britain.
That’s exactly what I thought “Charles is definitely RUNNING”
I love catching the musical theatre references in Stupes songs but I can't believe it took me five months to realize this one (if i'm correct lmao)
At 4:49, "If killing a priest, a vicar, a grocer, or postman or three is villainous?" may be a reference to A Little Priest from Sweeney Todd. In the song, Mrs. Lovett and Sweeney discuss hypothetically turning various community figures into meat pies to serve in her shop. Among many others, they bring up the titular Priest and joke about whether a meat pie is made of Grocer or Vicar (it has to be grocer, it's green).
My favorite part of this entire song is the "Engine, Engine Number Nine" part. The synchronized bobbing up and down was just perfect and really sold how creepy this song can be while also being playful. It perfectly encapsulates how the game is taking itself so seriously despite the ridiculous concept of a man eating Spider Train. The utter ridiculousness of the concept is just hilarious while also being completely taken serious in the actual game just like the song.
Edit: After a lot more listens it seems this entire song just loves referencing train related rhymes and songs. Absolutely astonishing
Reminds me of some other games like the one where there's a demon created out of ink to work at a theme park only to get locked in a tomb for years
@@sarge6508 Don't know the second one but the first one is definitely Bendy. And while I think it works I find Bendy much scarier than Charles... Like if you've ever seen Choo Choo Charles it's a really dumb game and kinda hilariously broken in a lot of ways
@@cragl3yman343 I mean,Even if its broken it's quite impressive since the developer is one guy. The game is actually good when you find out what goes on behind the scene
@@akarts8854 Oh nono I'm not saying that as a jab to the dev or anything. I LOVE this game. It's super weird and fun. I just am desensitized from it all and just fine Charles more hilarious than Scary.
Also my favorite part
Like actually how does the Stupendium actually never fail to make bangers..
Seriously there hasn't been a song that I have seen that I didn't download
You could say their performance is stupendous!
All of Stups songs are a banger, and I think they always be!!
Because he's a Brit. Assuming you're talking of bangers and mash
@@anirbanhasan8988stupendium uses they/them, I think :)
Now I know what Shwabadi was saying in the background now, thank you Stupes
i love the line "charles is the only train thats running", cause its a cleaver double meaning. charles literally runs at you on his legs, and a running train also means a train thats arriving and leaving.
What a masterpiece! Thank you Stupendium and Dan Bull for blessing us with such a stunning song! The visuals are absolutely incredible! What an insane amount of effort and talent!
A lovely duet from our dear Stupendium and DanBull!
They look like they are having so much fun! Honestly, I like the not so serious vibe of the song. It fits with the nature of Choo-Choo Charles.
I’m really hoping the Dev of Choo Choo Charles knows of this, this song is so good it would be criminal for them to not know of this!
He does! :)
@@TheStupendium Brilliant! And more props to you mate, you’re one of the few folks on YT I know of who keeps interacting with their community, that’s pretty cool.
The synchronization during "engine,engine number 9" was absolutely flawless. My personal favorite part of this gruesomely artful peace that you've both masterfully made. Well done!❤
it reminds me of the little nightmares 2 song they made. at one part they did this too, only a brief part an di absolutely loved it, I was soo glad seeing it again in this song. It's very statisfying
What an insane production this was! All of you guys have NAILED IT! Poor Shwabadi though...hope someone can untie him eventually!
Oh, someone definitely will.
@@MorganEdgy yeah it will be charles he will cut the rope with his pointy teeth
@@MorganEdgy Well something certainly will
honestly it looks like he could just sit up? his legs aren't tied and he's not tied TOO anything
Don't worry, he'll be freed, his head will be freed, RIGHT OF HIS SHOULDERS.
The fact that you actually built the train from the game and the fact that it looks so cool and detailed is just stunning. You actually just ripped it from the game into reality.
Its not a complete replica, but heavily based.
This TRACK is awesome. I RAILy enjoyed it. Your TRAINing with Dan Bull paid off. ❤️
sometimes to cheer myself up i just go to a stupendium vid and sort by new to see stupes still enjoying all the praise they get. i'm really really happy for you, man. and i love your music too
Thank you so much! I am sorry to hear you need cheering up though, I hope you are okay! 🧡
Okay, Stupendium's quality hits new levels every video. The cinematography is stunning and every scene hits hard.
As always, another Stupendium bop of a song!!
Dan Bull was also here
@@noodlesoup7794 that is true, he did amazing as well lol
So happy to be a part of this video :D great fun!! Love the track!
Thank you so much for being involved! Loved having you aboard! :D
You must have escaped being eaten, I’m so relieved!
I bet you weren’t so happy when you were tied to the track. 😋
Sorry, couldn’t let that bad pun get away.
I could have sworn this was a train... Must have been my imagination!
Amazing video/song Stupendium! Congrats again on 1M subs!
Now all we need is for you to get to 1mil
Nice to see the Dean Forest Railway helping out with this. Definitely helped add to the aesthetic.
Once again another bop, I expected nothing less from a duet between you and Dan.
Also I have to say the render of Charles in this song looks more terrifying than the original. Well done to the artist behind it.
thank you flowey
Holy shoot, Stupes and Dan have gone _off the rails_ with this one! This isn't just a music video, it's a whole short film! I know for sure this one's gonna be a perfect addition to my playlist. Incredible job, all of you!
Coming back to this song (among others), I really appreciate how whenever Dan and (edit) Stupes cooperate on a video like this, they reach a level of gleeful insanity that they definitely couldn't when kept separate.
Just a friendly heads up that I prefer people don't use my real name outside of friends and family! Stupes is fine! :)
@@TheStupendium Thanks for the reminder!
Called out to my partner, "Stups' new song is another bop" and they called back, "Not surprised!" from the kitchen, then cast it to the assistant so they can hear it too. Let's just say, this is our tradition any time a new song drops, and I'm far from disappointed 😊
Dan really embodies the deranged railroad engineer vibe, it's beautiful.
Stupes is like if the cog-in-the-wheel bureaucrat from The Fine Print worked for a crooked maniacal mining magnate and ended up getting a few loose screws along the way
Great stuff as always!
A few _more_ screws loose.
I love how your production quality is getting gradually more intricate. We’ll have a feature length film tucked neatly into a six minute song soon enough. Have a nice day, man, and keep making excellent tracks
Get it? :)
might as well make a musical while there's at that feature length film
@@polybius-jy5rc Stupendium uses they/them pronouns
@@sydssolanumsamsys sorry im not on twitter
I love how the beat even sounds like an engine huffing down a railway! Everything about this song is flawless!
the "for Charles" sign at the end is so well thought out😂😂 love you Stupendium, keep it up!
Holy crap. *Holy crap.* All of these are earworms, but how do you *do* this? I can't think of a single professional songwriter that can consistently pump out fantastic songs like this, and you're the performer, you do animations. How do you *do* this, Stuperman?
Who knew you could make so many train-related puns in one song? Seriously though, I felt like the one fast verse went a little off the rails, but as always, you crazy nerdcore members are always able to conduct yourselves in such a precise manner! I'm glad that all the wait coal-minated in this amazing video!
That Stupendibull Mining Company sign is genius! You two look like you had a lot of fun making this together. All the train puns are genius! The "loco-motive" line!! So good.
I'm hardly even know English language, but still can enjoy your songs, because of how good they sound
I don't get it
I just don't understand
How you're able to construct these absolutely perfect rhyme-schemes packed full of clever wordplay
Every single new release I am once again baffled at how creative both you and Dan truly are, especially when working together!
I mean come on "Chugga-chugging on blood as he chew-chews you" has to be the single best use of the cliché "chugga chugga choo choo"
EDIT: In other news, new phobia unlocked: A-track-nophobia
Dan's presence elevates everything that he's in. I love how you guys are always so in sync with each other. We NEED to make Stupendibull a thing!
This man can pump out anywhere from 5-12 minutes of lyrics every month, way too underrated of a music creator
It's been 12 days and I literally can't stop listening to this song.
12 days? Try 7 months
It's a freight day when a song with a track as great as this chugs along!
Nice
AAAAAAA
I really wonder, in sections where they are singing out the side of the train, you get moments like at 5:33 where Stupes hat gets tilted sideways and they just leave it there. Was that intentional? Because it REALLY sells the whole "we are going mad" aspect.
Well, that and Dan's absolutely unhinged grin throughout the song.
That was a happy accident that we thought looked cool! :)
In the wise words of Bob Ross just a happy little accident
3:52 is my favorite part; love the callback to that song. It fit so well!
I dont know why but the "Engine, Engine, Number 9" part has been living in my head rent free for over a week
I love everything about this video, The song itself having a sort of industrial feel - while still feeing unnerving to a degree, the props looking like they've been ripped right out of the game, and even the filming spot being an actual railway! Everything about this is perfect, it's just like what I imagined it being! Everyone who worked on this did an amazing job, it's perfect!
The song having the vibe that I crave from niche bands like Caravan of Thieves where the instrumental an vocal tone just goes all over
4:25 stupes sounds so ridiculous when they say "THE EL CHOO-CHOOPACABRA" you had way too many giggles I can tell
2:34 "Stupendium! Please step out of the... **Bisexual Light**"
Never
Stupendium and Dan Bull in the Charlie masks made me whistle with laughter. Also them just casually talking and walking off as they left that dude to get eaten by Charles. Also the "most illogical number of legs" killed me. As if any number off legs would be natural on a friggen train.
I love how when you say "sixteen tons of scurrying death" the rhythm slightly changes to that of Tennessee Ernie Ford's classic.
So how many times did your hat fall off while making this Stupes? Also the "run a train on you" line is nasty and I love it.
Too many :P
@@TheStupendium rip
could you explain this line to me because no matter how many times I listen to it I still don't get it?
@@the_eldritch_teacher Run Away, Train! As it run away it's the train
@@HazyVex i get that line
3:53 is a solid highlight not only with the really cool visual of them bobbing up and down in beat with the flow but the changing from normal to cultists attire
That and the flow of the verse is great!
Overall! Another absolutely stupendous video that flows so well and has a killer beat!
Hurrah for Stupendieum!
5:44 the way you guys designed Charles in the video and the thumbnail i knew this video was great! 😃
holy crap, that choo-choo Charles model is so cool and, in my opinion, the best 3d animated choo-choo Charles I've seen. also, I like that unlike other songs that focus on either Charles or the Archivist, this focuses on the cultists and the regular denizens of Aranearum
The Set Quality, The Outfits, The Lighting, The FREAKING OPENING, AND THAT BEAT! You never seem to cease to amaze me, Mr. The Stupendium!
I can tell how much fun you guys had with the puns
The only thing wrong with this song is how incredible the video itself is. Impossible to do anything else and just listen to it!
Just something I want to say really quick. After listening to this about a dozen times I can't stop noticing how well you guys harmonize together. It's genuinely really cool. That combined with how much fun the song is really cool, incredible job guys.
The wordplay... the flow... the sheer _berth_ of train-based puns...
Truly you and Dan are the masters.
3:53 Can we please talk about the harmonys and the deep voice ❤❤❤

“You might say we’ve got a loco-motive”
I don’t know how you can be this clever with lyrics EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
The feeling of it all was malevolent yet whimsical but Stupes and Dan in those masks was straight up scary but in the best way. Great job guys
There's not a lot in this world that i wouldn't do or give to have an album with both you guys on it
nice
nice
Oh my God this was INCREDIBLE.
Thank you, man! :D
This right here ↑. This is a based opinion
I'm glad Dan's influence has left a clear and visible mark (A whole verse dedicated to innuendo) on this song as well (Not that the Stupendium doesn't have that capability we all know one particular song)
Get your mind out of the gutter. It's about soft drinks
@@rockgirl6786 …and nothing else
@@GeneralBumpkis Amen
What is the verse?
@@Lord-of-The-Crabsthe last one I think?
This deserves more views considering how much love and effort went into this
This song is Sheldon's Cooper's worst nightmare.
This was not what I was expecting took my by surprise I knew what game it was but didn’t know what this would sound like and now I do and I love it. Incredible Choo Choo Charles song Stupendium and Dan Bull have a marvelous day 🤘🤘👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
Holy cow the production value of this song is crazy. The lyrics are in line with some of the best you've ever done.
This has officially become one of my favorite songs. I listen to it daily.
I love Dan’s bits in the back
“But it’s pretty clear regardless, he’s a dining car” The little “ha” is so funny to me
"The train's not just cancelled, it's damn well deplatformed!"
This enby deserves a flippin medal for their lyrical creativity.
That line had me literally LOL.
At 3:37, I swear Stupes was doing the idle Moondrop animation…
Oh my god I also just noticed it 💀
@@Sir_Ravenstein I know... it works well for the character he is trying to portray tho...
@Voidheart it works really well
omg they are
Never thought a ChooChoo Charlie song would be one of my favs song on the channel ever. Amazing work as always
This is dope. If any part of that was built by hand that's insane
The train was all hand built! There is a CG version of the train you see in the wide shots. If you can see the wheels on screen the train is 100% CG if you can't see the wheels it's all 100% physical. :)
I love when dan bull and stupendium come together to make a song. Their voices really complement each other
I love trains, I love horror, I love Stupendium, I love Dan Bull. I am the target audience. This is so frickin good y'all! Y'all knocked it out of the park!
I love how they are not afraid of charles (maybe because they are his cultists) and the theme of the song is not "WE ARE GOING TO DIE IN THE NEXT 5 MILLISECONDS, THE SPIDER TRAIN IS AFTER US" and instead is just "Welp, off to get a human to not make our big spider lord mad!"
"Every life has a light in the tunnel ahead but you might just find that behind it instead "🗣️🔥🔥🔥 So good
This is why I love you Stupendium, the production value, the acting, the outfits, the sets, the lighting, the special effects, collaborating and the great rhymes and beats, for a horror game I've never even heard of before, It's beyond entertaining
The Stupendium is back, and stronger than ever.
PLEEEAAASSSEEEEE TELL ME 4:50 IS A SWEENEY TODD REFERENCE IT'S GLORIOUS
Maybe ;)
