Here: The "mechanical hands" in the chorus are a reference to the hands of a clock, thus the "Ruler of Everything" is Time. The "do you like how my face disintegrates into chalk" is referring to how you and everyone else will eventually decay into nothing. There, it makes sense now.

Meaning of this song: Juno represents humanity, or mankind. There is the second character, Time itself, which argues agaisnt him. We start off by knowing that Juno is an insecure and egocentric character, by how he asks for approval. "Do you like how I dance? I've got zirconium pants!", "Do you like how I walk? Do you like how I talk???". Even using his wife and job as "accomplishments". Time replies that these are not important, by "consecuensial enough to slip you into a trance"; "Not important, and that it makes you lose your grip in reality". We also learn that Juno feels like he has a problem, where he feels like he needs to know when he will die, as if he had a big credit in the universe. Which, he doesn't. Time aays "You resemble a fool, although you're only a man, so give it up and smile". Easier way to read it, "You're dumb, so stay dumb". Time also tells him that the only thing he needs to understand is that he cant understand anything. Juno seems to be angry because of this all. He believes to be associated to "gods", "heaven", or spiritual theories. Which leads to "shot at the sun with a gun", as if in a metaphor, not with ACTUALLY a gun, shot in fury at the sun, the thing most associated to heaven at his reach. The first time we see the "You understand mechanical hands", it's a question. Time is asking Juno if he knows that Mechanical hands are the ruler of everything. At the second time they say this, it's a statement. Juno understood that part. Juno is an adrogynous name, which is also used to represent humanity. I just stole all of this info from a video I just watched. Leave me alone, I'm autistic and stutter when I try to tell it to my mom.
i guess it could be compared to how we see bacteria as 2d through microscopes, we as people are 3d, and time exists in 4d Edit: People in the replies have pointed out that 4d is not time and they are correct. I got the whole "time was 4d" idea from a theory that said so.
I think it’s meant to show that the next form of complex life is mostly incomprehensible to the lower one (ex: unicellular organisms can’t comprehend the existence of more complex forms of life). When it comes to us as a human race, we can’t comprehend time the way a more complex form may.
@@sreyerbri7469 time is the ruler of everything, no matter how hard you try on anything, it will not matter because of time, being something we humans never comprehend and just accept it
Okay The clay men are “human” and the little people are time and the big universe guy is the “mechanical hands” and the person singing heavily is also mechanical hands and he’s describing how time will be the start and death of everything. One of the earliest lyrics in the song are sang by humans “At the end of a time is another begun”. It explains why the tune of the music when the mv starts is the same as when it ends because it starts again. The rl scenes are really confusing but that is basically just “space” because the rooms are depicted as other “planets”. Time is inevitable and it’s fate will change all.
I think im in love. Juno is such a beautifully constructed character for just one song. The way hes been somewhat described to be rude, egotistical, and greedy is almost like a defense mechanism to hide his insecurities, like his fear of death (by that, the line "Do you hear the clock stop when you reach the end?") And his want to be remembered after death as to avoid being forgotten about, another fear of his or... Something like that. I'm so in love with Juno and I've never related to a song character more

Good point but questioning memes is pointless a while ago there was a fatass bugs bunny as a meme and a weird depiction of knuckles from Sonic with a Ugandan accent
And for some reason we revived a weird game that some astronaut beans with legs works in a weird space station and one of those beans has to kill the beans bc no reason
fun fact: this music video is actually two songs combined together: 13 and ruler of everything. 13 might be a interlude into the thing. like when in the undertale soundtrack there is bergentrucking and asgore.
It brings me to tears to see this video have 13M views. I'm so happy they're finally receiving the recognition they deserve that I'd hoped for every day when I was younger.
Just wanna say, at the end of the album this is on, there is a hidden reverse message that says "Wouldn't the world be better off if we took nonsense more seriously". Which I think really predicts the life of this song. We made a bunch of stupid overly absurd ironic memes, but eventually we took it seriously, and now we will ever be blessed by this wonderful song.
"Let's say Hypothetically, for the Sake of this Arguement, Juno was indeed mad further more knew he'd been had leading him to Shoot at the Sun with a Gun, you follow, yes?"

Surreal music isn't a recent invention lol, this song sounds like something you'd hear in the '70s. Not in a bad way, mind you, just that it's not particularly modern.
The people who would have been into Tally Hall had most likely heard of them back then. They did go on tour across the country for Good And Evil, so it's not like they were unheard of.
This song is truly something else, I have tried to anonymously share the bands I listen to with my class mates, bands like this who make what they want, and they all make fun of songs and bands like these, the songs that tally hall and bands similar have made made me realize that I can have my own taste in music and if people ridicule it then they aren’t accepting people, if you listen to this music and people make fun of it then realize there are tons who listen to these bands and songs and people that make fun of you for listening to these songs are not people you should be friends with
I love how they used the 3 major animation styles 2D animation Stop motion/Claymation and 3D animation they also used live action somewhat with the house.
I showed my dad Tally Hall a few years ago, and he used to play this song exclusively. Everywhere. It got to the point where my mom was so sick of it. Lol, fond memories.
For anyone wondering. The song is about time and how the things we do only to boost our ego is a waste of that time. Time is the ruler of everything, We don't need to care avout how we talk, walk, dance, or what pants we have. In the end, we will all fall to times rule. So give it up and smile. Be happy being you.
This song is about how time never ends and if you play this on loop the start matches the end so this song is like time itself time never ends and so does this song
If you're here because of the recent memes, I want you to know a little about this band, Tally Hall. they're no longer together, the members are all doing their own thing now, but a reason the band fell apart is because nobody was interested in their stuff at the time. this was in the early 2000's. These guys stopped making music because seemingly nobody cared about their stuff. now, they've gained a cult following. now people are recognizing their songs, now people are coming to listen, now people are wanting more. I feel bad for them. I wish they'd come back.
I've heard a few Tally Hall songs before, and I'm going to be completely honest, I had no idea they made this Tally Hall is quickly becoming one of my favourite bands
God, how many great talents has that happened to? Even something like Among Us sat in extreme obscurity for 2 years before it completely blew up. It's crazy to imagine how much different the world would be if some things had gotten more popular at their time, or if something had never gotten its big break
Tally Hall's songs are hidden gems. Ruler of Everything became my favorite song, after randomly stumbling into it after watching the memes. If there was a time for Tally Hall to come back, it's now. I would love to see another song.
That's not true, there was no major falling out and the band members frequently collaborated on each other's solo adventures after the band officially went on hiatus. Three of them still co-manage the band's Twitter page.
I feel like existing and not existing at the same time when I listen to this. Gives me an existential crisis. This is what I feel like when I'm dreaming. This is what what I'm dreaming in the music video.
Imagine going to the bathroom wanting to take a piss, only to see a bunch of crotch goblins standing there giving birth to smaller crotch goblins that ends up killing you
This song makes me feel a feeling I've only ever felt once before. While I understand how small I am in the grand scheme of things in an abstract sense, this song really makes me *feel* it. There is so much I don't understand and never will. There is so much I don't know and never will. The only other time I felt this way was when I saw a photo of several galaxies and it really hit me for some reason.
yep, and they definitely fit together too, since not only does 13 transition really nicely into ruler of everything, it's also based off of the chime of a grandfather clock, which fits perfectly with the overarching theme of time
That's not irony. That's not even a coincidence, it was deliberate Edit: sorry, was in a bad mood but yea they made the song like that intentionally :)
After hearing people in the comments talk about how the song is a conversation between time and humanity. I realized “detective undercover brotherhood, objective obscene.“ It’s basically just “no s**t Sherlock.“ which is said right after “I’ve been living a lie, a metamorphical sceme.“ or the human having a mental breakdown after realizing time is right.
@@GameyGaming Detective Undercover brotherhood = a detective with a low profile, with a strong bond with a friend, i.e. Sherlock Holmes Objective Obscene = an obscenity or swear word i.e. "no shit"
this song is about how when all of humanity falls, when the stars fizzle out, and when there is nothing else left in the universe, time is the only one that stands, and its foolish to think that you can outlast or stop time. so give up and just smile, stop worrying about the future when you could be enjoying the present.
Well I feel it's more complex than that. At the end of the video the 2 dimensional creatures begin to eat the world time lived in and transform it back in 2d. There has to be something there. It has to be reference to a sort of loop, as the lyrics also go over it.
I felt like it was more like, no matter how much power something has, there will always be something to one up it, and even if we manage to bend physics to our will, only a god or time will maintain power
My ears are blessed when he says "in the gallows or the ghetto, In the town or the meadow, in the billows even over the sun and every end of the time is another begun"
Ive listened to this a bunch and ive just realized a few things: -the song is about controlling time (mechanical hands are the ruler of everything) -using the power irresponsibly, and not understanding it -the song slows down, speeds up and even uses sounds that are sped up and slowed down to show the impact of time -in the video the little people get tired of being controlled and kill the ruler, returning everything back to normal and bringing the song back to the opening riff. Very cool stuff for a rather silly and wild sounding song.
i think that the parasites themselves represent time, the galaxy dude would probably represent people that are at the top of the world (billionaires, governments/leaders, etc), changing our perspectives how they want, when they want it. the fetus looking things are us/humans in general, which explains why everything fell to the parasites at that time.
Sounds to me like it talks about time being way more important than humans, and how in the end, once everyone's dead, the only thing left will be time. Yet we act so entitled.
It's about cycles, and in extension, nihilism; EG nothing matters in the end However, you could easily say that is not true, as you could say that by accomplishing anything in the span of all history is an achievement in of itself - what you have done will be remembered forever, while those who have not will not be remembered. Who knows. Maybe one day, we'll figure out how to make a wormhole and escape this reality, and into the multiverse- it's not impossible. The greatest thing about life is that it formed in a system that likely was never constructed with it's existence in mind (this could be up for debate if you believe in god or not, either way, it's irrelevant); and because of this, we as biological life forms will not ever stop until we find a conclusion in which we will survive. Nobody can say what the future will bring, and what technology will become available. Already, we have things that make old scifi shows look archaic in comparison - ion drives, laser beam weapons that can destroy planes and missiles almost casually, etc. Only issue is that we haven't figured out an FTL drive, and even then, we're still getting closer and closer to a conclusion. Never give up - never stop trying to make your place in the universe, as otherwise you'll just be overtaken by someone else who will... and just maybe, we can reach an end in which not even the death of the universe could stop us.

Why are the catchiest songs always about existential dread, the lies of the universe, and the upcoming end of time.
The universality of existential dread makes it extremely catchy and easy to weave some evocative words about.
Such as? I wanna hear this shit I can only think of existential threat rn
@@impulse1955 errr, while not technically the same kind of existential dread expressed in the above song, a similar sort of dread is showcased in I Earn My Life by Lemon Demon.
Don't forget about Mechanical Men
Talking Heads - Once In A Lifetime
Daniel: Weezer
The Cooler Daniel: Tally Hall
200% drugs
10% violence
ok Ok... how a decade-old weird song about existential dread was tied together with a revival of a 2008 meme but in an extremely obscure and dark way?
Good point but questioning memes is pointless a while ago there was a fatass bugs bunny as a meme and a weird depiction of knuckles from Sonic with a Ugandan accent
And for some reason we revived a weird game that some astronaut beans with legs works in a weird space station and one of those beans has to kill the beans bc no reason
Yep. Troll face went from being a douche to a medium for existential crisis
We do a little trolling
I guess I have been living under a rock because I haven't seen any meme about this. If I may ask, what is the meme's name?
This song is strangely addicting and I can't stop listening to it.
Because it is catchy, surreal, and overall, just the epitome of failing but moving on

Just wanna say, at the end of the album this is on, there is a hidden reverse message that says "Wouldn't the world be better off if we took nonsense more seriously". Which I think really predicts the life of this song. We made a bunch of stupid overly absurd ironic memes, but eventually we took it seriously, and now we will ever be blessed by this wonderful song.

Surreal music isn't a recent invention lol, this song sounds like something you'd hear in the '70s. Not in a bad way, mind you, just that it's not particularly modern.
The people who would have been into Tally Hall had most likely heard of them back then. They did go on tour across the country for Good And Evil, so it's not like they were unheard of.
This is criminally underrated even with over 10 million views, this deserves a billion views.
This song is truly something else, I have tried to anonymously share the bands I listen to with my class mates, bands like this who make what they want, and they all make fun of songs and bands like these, the songs that tally hall and bands similar have made made me realize that I can have my own taste in music and if people ridicule it then they aren’t accepting people, if you listen to this music and people make fun of it then realize there are tons who listen to these bands and songs and people that make fun of you for listening to these songs are not people you should be friends with

For anyone wondering. The song is about time and how the things we do only to boost our ego is a waste of that time.

This song is about how time never ends and if you play this on loop the start matches the end so this song is like time itself time never ends and so does this song
If you're here because of the recent memes, I want you to know a little about this band, Tally Hall. they're no longer together, the members are all doing their own thing now, but a reason the band fell apart is because nobody was interested in their stuff at the time. this was in the early 2000's. These guys stopped making music because seemingly nobody cared about their stuff.
now, they've gained a cult following. now people are recognizing their songs, now people are coming to listen, now people are wanting more. I feel bad for them. I wish they'd come back.
:(
I've heard a few Tally Hall songs before, and I'm going to be completely honest, I had no idea they made this
Tally Hall is quickly becoming one of my favourite bands
God, how many great talents has that happened to? Even something like Among Us sat in extreme obscurity for 2 years before it completely blew up. It's crazy to imagine how much different the world would be if some things had gotten more popular at their time, or if something had never gotten its big break
Tally Hall's songs are hidden gems. Ruler of Everything became my favorite song, after randomly stumbling into it after watching the memes. If there was a time for Tally Hall to come back, it's now. I would love to see another song.
That's not true, there was no major falling out and the band members frequently collaborated on each other's solo adventures after the band officially went on hiatus. Three of them still co-manage the band's Twitter page.
this song is almost 4 minutes long and feels like it passes in an instant no matter how many times I listen to it.

This song makes me feel a feeling I've only ever felt once before. While I understand how small I am in the grand scheme of things in an abstract sense, this song really makes me *feel* it. There is so much I don't understand and never will. There is so much I don't know and never will. The only other time I felt this way was when I saw a photo of several galaxies and it really hit me for some reason.
Little known fact, this song is a combination between 2 tracks since the intro is its own song. No joke, it's called "13".
yep, and they definitely fit together too, since not only does 13 transition really nicely into ruler of everything, it's also based off of the chime of a grandfather clock, which fits perfectly with the overarching theme of time
Fun fact, 13 is 13 seconds on and it's the 13th track on the album!
@@tristanraine That's true B)
@Uløx the more you mämä
The first 14 seconds are part of 13 the rest is ruler of everything.
“Every end of a time is another begun...”
The song actually ends with the same beat as the beginning, meaning this song could be a loop. Ironic.
I was listening on loop without realising on my phone because the beats were exactly the same
also the end of the song is the intro but reversed
That's not irony. That's not even a coincidence, it was deliberate
Edit: sorry, was in a bad mood
but yea they made the song like that intentionally :)
the song before it is actually called 13 and it's only made to be a beginning to the song. it was deliberate, i think?

After hearing people in the comments talk about how the song is a conversation between time and humanity.

this song is about how when all of humanity falls, when the stars fizzle out, and when there is nothing else left in the universe, time is the only one that stands, and its foolish to think that you can outlast or stop time. so give up and just smile, stop worrying about the future when you could be enjoying the present.
this is exactly what I thought, the song essentially says that in the end time is the ruler of everything and will outlast us all.
Well I feel it's more complex than that. At the end of the video the 2 dimensional creatures begin to eat the world time lived in and transform it back in 2d. There has to be something there. It has to be reference to a sort of loop, as the lyrics also go over it.
I felt like it was more like, no matter how much power something has, there will always be something to one up it, and even if we manage to bend physics to our will, only a god or time will maintain power

-using the power irresponsibly, and not understanding it
-the song slows down, speeds up and even uses sounds that are sped up and slowed down to show the impact of time
-in the video the little people get tired of being controlled and kill the ruler, returning everything back to normal and bringing the song back to the opening riff.

Ignoring the video, the song has an existential feel to it... it's so creepy, yet mesmerizing.
Sounds to me like it talks about time being way more important than humans, and how in the end, once everyone's dead, the only thing left will be time. Yet we act so entitled.
It's about cycles, and in extension, nihilism; EG nothing matters in the end
However, you could easily say that is not true, as you could say that by accomplishing anything in the span of all history is an achievement in of itself - what you have done will be remembered forever, while those who have not will not be remembered.
Who knows. Maybe one day, we'll figure out how to make a wormhole and escape this reality, and into the multiverse- it's not impossible. The greatest thing about life is that it formed in a system that likely was never constructed with it's existence in mind (this could be up for debate if you believe in god or not, either way, it's irrelevant); and because of this, we as biological life forms will not ever stop until we find a conclusion in which we will survive. Nobody can say what the future will bring, and what technology will become available. Already, we have things that make old scifi shows look archaic in comparison - ion drives, laser beam weapons that can destroy planes and missiles almost casually, etc. Only issue is that we haven't figured out an FTL drive, and even then, we're still getting closer and closer to a conclusion.
Never give up - never stop trying to make your place in the universe, as otherwise you'll just be overtaken by someone else who will... and just maybe, we can reach an end in which not even the death of the universe could stop us.
