the original it sounds like someone saying ahh or maybe a bell between the different lyrics in the chorus, in this version it sounds like a kazoo lmaooo
The finished version only modulates the god-like figure, making it feel like a person fearing a force they're unfamiliar with, allowing us to relate to them more and fear the ruler of everything. This version only pitches up the human, presenting them in a more mocking tone, playing up the aspect of foolish ignorance they display in the lyrics and making the ruler of everything seem more like an empathetic being trying to get the human to understand they can't ignore their place. I really enjoy the inverse in both versions, they each provide a different experience.
i think the ruler of everything is time itself rather than a physical bieng because we all die in due time time is therefor the ruler of everything also time is eternal

Been crying my eyes out for hours and this comment sent me into a hysterical laughing fit. Thank you so much friend. This is the best TH-cam comment I've ever read.
@@krowta2062the future part does fit imo, the song is all about the concept of time and how even when we all die * in the future * time will continue on
Id imagine all versions of ruler of everything go along eith each other in some way, and if course they are but i mean like- every version comes before one another and i imagine because that the ending is the beginning of the song and it shows why juno is mad and how he shoots at the song , i imagine each song shows that time or whatever being it is is just getting more pissed about juno shooting at the sun or something
listening to this and listening to the official version after is quite an experience. it feels like the most current one is a dystopian version of the demo
I haven't seen anyone else reference this in the comments so I'd like to point it out I noticed the demo versions of Ruler of Everything and Spring and a Storm share the lyrics of "Play Pretend" I feel like this confirms the theory that the sun is in Ruler of Everything (being a more demanding figure) and the moon in Spring and a storm is more of a reassuring figure. idk i may be wrong but i noticed both of the demo's have the same lyric 🤷♂
I love both ver for different reasons. The main ver is very powerful and menacing, while this ver rlly emphases the constant dialogue between the two and the realness
I so much prefer the demo version of this song to the album version! Genuinely one of my favorite tracks of all time!!! Thanks for uploading this to TH-cam!
I looked into it, apparently the cover art is from an I think unofficial album from a set of 2 that has tons of stuff in it, theres stuff like the raw take of Hidden In The Sand, to some covers they did randomly like Lady Madonna by The Beatles and Stand By Me.
It feels a bit ire, very ire. I really don't know what to think about about the 1st of 3 versions. It's just.... idk it feel more like the song is being sung whilst the singers themselves are in the prosses of panicking about the dread of infinite time which rubs off in a more aggressive or in your face tone. but thats just meaning fabrication. I like it.
I'll bet there are some demos from good & evil floating around. they won't sound as amateur as the mmmm demos, obviously, but they'd be interesting to hear.
"Number your thumb, impossible sum, of a monkey fist hung on a vine. Organism assembly line. Everything's gonna be fine, *play pretend* " Why did they cut that line?
Ok i made a story with this. 0:11 Juno is the pet puppy of a family of mysterious gods. He's the dog of a god so he's very special witch is why he was able to shoot the sun. 0:39 "You understand mechanical hands are the ruler of everything?" is the dad god telling his son about the power that they have like "You know we have a lot of responsibilities as gods right?" Hes saying this because hes going to send his son to that planet to observe its citizens to see how to create them a new sun 0:49 The son being like "Yeah i am the ruller of everything thats so cool! >:D" 1:08 The reversed words are the other gods talking but from the planets hes visiting the words of the gods just sounds like gibberish 1:53 "I've been living a lie a metaphorical scheme" is the minimum wage employe thinking about his crapy job and life
this sounds more like the concept of time explaining to a monkey that hes the most powerful thing in the universe (but the monkey doesnt understand him)

@@LifetimeDisaster about *time* someone said it

It's like this version is from the perspective of the god-like figure, and the finished version is from the perspective of the mortal.

[Intro]
Juno was mad, he knew he'd been had
So he shot at the sun with a gun
Shot at the sun with a gun
Shot at his wily one only friend
[Chorus]
You understand mechanical hands are the ruler of everything (Ah)
Ruler of everything (Ah)
I'm the ruler of everything in the end
[Post-Chorus]
Number your thumb
Impossible sum of the monkey-fist hung on a vine (Ah)
Organism assembly line (Ah)

Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants
Consequential enough to slip you into a trance
Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk?
Do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk?
I have a wonderful wife, I have a powerful job
She criticizes me for being egocentric (Ha!)
You practice your mannerisms into the wall
If this mirror were clearer I'd be standing so tall
I saw you slobber over clovers on the side of the hill
I was observing the birds (Circling for the kill)
I've been you, I know you, your façade is a scam
You know you're making me cry, this is the way that I am
I've been living a lie, a metamorphical scheme
Detective undercover, brotherhood, objective, obscene
Oh, no, no, oh, yeah
[Bridge]
Do you hear the flibbity jibbity jibber jabber
With an, "Oh my god I've got to get out of here or I'll have another
Word to sell, another story to tell
Another timepiece ringing the bell"
Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?
No, you know it must be never-ending, comprehend if you can
But when you try to pretend to understand
You resemble a fool although you're only a man
So give it up and smile

@@chromosoze yes
I hear “Oh no nodding yes” at the end of the song.
That "ah" never fails to make me laugh
Wasn't there a version with a "ding" instead of the "ahhh"?

Sounds like Peter Griffin.
Just saying.
"Hey lois, you remember the time I was in tally hall? Hehehehehehehehhehehehehehheh"
æh!!
The sound staging is what really makes this for me, when juno is speaking his voice comes from you
This is just the kidz bop version of ruler of everything
why must you do this
Lol
IMAGINE IF KIDZ BOP TALLY HALL WAS A THING-
The better version*
This sounds just as beautiful and unique as the official ruler of everything

Sucks that the first verse was cut from the final
I hope someone makes a edit of the final but with the first verse
@@krowta2062 I believe it was originally "in the future, even over the sun" because that is what is said in one concert in 2005
The intro is about how time reaches everywhere, but saying "the future" is a given. Nice decision to change it!
@@krowta2062 In the future is kinda the same because that line is essentially what is beyond you but billows does still fit better imo

The best line.
They went all out on the trashcans

i dont know how to describe it but the music box sounds like it was found _hidden in the sand_
Definitely sounds better with the louder drums

The number your thumb but keeps getting stuck in my head and then I realise I’m singing it to myself like all day 😭😍😌
This version is almost what I would imagine the song would be if it was a song for happy monster band
My right ear is a fan of tally hall now
NO WAY IS THIS VARIATIONS ON A CLOUD FROM MIRACLE MUSICAL??!!?!??!??!?!?!????!?!?!?
knowing the non demo version completely, (the final ig) i am so mad they got rid of the flat "ahh's"

love the first 2 "aah" at the start

"a" such wise words
I really likes the third verse where it says “everything is going to be fine in pretend” idk why they removed that
I wish they took it a different direction than they ended up going with

1:08 The reversed words are the other gods talking but from the planets hes visiting the words of the gods just sounds like gibberish
1:53 "I've been living a lie a metaphorical scheme" is the minimum wage employe thinking about his crapy job and life
1:16 - sounds like a teeny tiny Joe speaking 😭😭 (or who ever it is)
WAIT NOW I CANT STOP THINKING ABOUT THAT 😭😭
this sounds more like the concept of time explaining to a monkey that hes the most powerful thing in the universe (but the monkey doesnt understand him)
