8:38 Is killing because the way it goes from the most horrific beat I've ever heard to some Lo-Fi music straight out of a 24 hours study music live stream is so funny
This is psychotic. IT SWITCHES FROM BEING ANGRY TO HORNY TO ANGRY TO HORNY TO ANGRILY HORNY YOU MADE IT A DEFTONES SONG BUT WITH FEMME VOCALS LMAOOO I LOVE IT!!!
I don't know how it always happens where the main beat is just horrible crimes against my eardrums then it switches to a beautiful section that lasts just long enough to let your guard down before the main beat hits again and you remember she made it on mute
It sounds like you're working in a factory in a dystopic future and your overseer is a little goblin that keeps screaming at everyone but he took an edible before clocking in and it takes effect during the chorus
I actually really prefer the fact that you used less loops than usual because the more effort is behind the result the funnier it ends up being. If you only use pre-existing loops obviously it will end up as a crazy mess. It's much more fun when it actually slightly resembled the original.
It's super cute how you started dancing at 11:10 and that music sample was amazing! Sounds like it's be something you'd get on some surreal Ariel footage of beautiful countryside with many lush trees
I.. genuinely can’t even describe the way this one made me feel. Anytime a new instrument came in I jumped in shock and terror and when the switch up to the lofi trap came i just lost it 😂
Honestly one of my fave ones of the series. The tonal dissonance between the chorus and verses is incredible. I love how insane the chorus insturmental is. You absolutley slay on the vocals
Delighted to see that you're branching out on covering other genres in this series. Each one of these videos is so funny and I've shared them with multiple friends. The best switch here was absolutely insane as always. Also once again, I kindly request Viva la Vida.
I know u mess around a lot with the vocals for these just bc like they're just goofy fun, but when you belt your voice goes crazy, that last section like u said was poppin
I vibe fucking hard with this. Your best work yet from a pure sonic experience. Get whiplash and bruised ribs from moshing straight to chilling on a beach on holiday to recover.
about grabbing a male peacock: i work on a farm, and we have one who’s very shy. if you approach it from the back, it’s easy to hold them. they usually open up the big feathers when trying to court a female
@bruce-le-smith the song is one of fine taste. a transcendental experience that invites the listener to dive deep into the twisted mind of one who chops suey. a melody which holds eccentric while also delicate chords manages to guide you through a stream of emotions, hurt, comfort, angst, fluff, and many more, each stronger than the last. if you'd like to get a taste of both heaven and hell, to fill your cup with euphoria, to feel what's it's like to be a god, "i made chop suey without hearing it" by Dev Lemons is the best option for you. there you go the chop suey you wholeheartedly begged for.
This makes me feel better regarding any of my recording processes. I love your choice to be vulnerable and allow us in on your process despite how it sounds. Bringing fun back to it and it’s nice. Thanks homie
this is hilarious and i love how authentic and chaotic this process is. I bet a lot of people who've never used a DAW to produce music has no idea how hard this would be to get right. It doesn't only take perfect pitch and understanding of the composition but also knowledge of all the sample libraries without actually being able to use your ears. I'd be entirely lost.... haha
she overchopped the suey

the switch from online midi conversion SOAD to royalty free hotline bling knocked the wind outta me
"online midi conversion" is a disturbingly accurate description
Specifically that part had me choking with laughter haha
royalty free hotline bling 😭
I LITERALLY pissed myself from laughing
Golden comment 😂
"Royalty-free travel vlog-ass beat" describes 8:40 perfectly

Most underrated comment 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
8:11 sounds like something out of ace attorney 😭😭
LOL
Lmao Apollo's pursuit came to mind for some reason 😂
OBJECTION! ✋ 🔴
this sounds like a manic episode
gets me everytime
Just like 90% of System of a Down songs
So does the original Chop Suey lmao
Why a tone def girl that cant come close to the correct key or staying in pitch even have this shit???
@@tom416 She’s not tone deaf, she literally has her PC muted, that’s the point of this.
0:47 thought my phone was tweaking, it was just her
when i’m chillin and the fent kick in
"father, FATHER, father, FATHER"
"and then he grabs the peacock-"
"I think I tried and I think it's nice" is the new thing I say to myself in the mirror
i love when she does that weird little laugh during the vocals it gets me every time lol
Agree
10:44 Dev just leaked the new Billie Eilish song
dev screaming over the music from a tourism commercial is such a vibe
"I don't think you trust
*giggles*

8:39 dawg thats hotline bling
LMFAO
first thing i thought of
the "Father why have you forsaken me" is genuinely a fucking banger oh my fucking god why is it so good
that beat switch is lethal
Think my neck broke each time
The little giggle while singing really got me feeling like this is the last thing I'll hear before i get run down by a self driving taxi
When she went "father 😀 (father 😁) " I clapped
this switching between the theme of the fight with flowey from undertale and the hotline bling is something incredible
the shift to a drake song at 8:39 really sold it for me
Why is that so accurate 😭😭
Not to mention 10:17
10:12 the vocals actually go hard in this part
The chorus just sounds like a trap remix of the original. I kinda dig it. Let her cook.
Same
if this is your view of trap music i'm sorry
I wouldn’t call it trap, it’s more of a lofi thing but I’m not sure of the genre name “royalty free travel vlog” was a pretty good descriptor
its actually reggae, not trap

Agreed!
Definitely this!
10:43 the way you casually hit that is actually insane
