I’ll never forget, during the holidays of 2006 (in 8th grade), my crush had this as her MySpace song, so naturally I fell in love with it. But even now, 15 years later and far more mature, this track holds up as one of my all-time favorites. And it instantly brings me back to a simpler, happier time in my life. One of those songs that will never lose its nostalgic power for me. It doesn’t hurt that it’s absolutely haunting and beautiful.
Wow that's beautiful man , even tho I'm a gen z but music videos , songs or basically any stuff from that era made me kinda nostalgic i always wanted to be a part of that time you know when the internet wasn't so prevalent and people would actually prefer going out and have fun instead of being on socials , music videos were blowing up , internet was still a thing but people actually prefer outdoor activities , i like everything about it board games , those cars and i think would've been pretty fun as well i really envy you'll who lived through that ...
For everyone that searched for years for the original song I wanna say...Congrats you finished your adventure good luck...New adventures are waiting for you

fun fact: this song is based off a book! its called East and Eden by John Steinback, here's a quote directly from the Genius website: " He explains his own term “monster” which refers to an individual having received no love as a child, which further transformed that person into a rapist or murderer, or some other unexplainable phenomenon. If a child receives no love they will end up a “monster”. " Kinda grim but i still love this song!
Everytime i listen to this im amazed by how the lyrics fits so well with the melody and harmony, they really nailed the creepy, eerie feeling with this one. Even the remixed versions cant escape that feeling, they try to make it more bouncy and “edmy” and it still feels creepy af in my opinion.
If you also consider the lyrics are directly inspired by the book "East of Eden", the song fits even better (at least to me) as the song feels like the audio version of a storybook turned twisted and dark.
Becoming really alternative is how a lot of people deal with their trauma. Inside reflects outside type of deal. So in 2010 when you were laughing at alternative people it's entirely possibly you were treating heavily traumatized people like shit for how they chose to cope. Getting the absolute shit beaten out of me at home and then going to school the next week to get thrown down the stairs was my 2010s. Because of shit people, who could not mind their own business. I dont know, food for thought.
@Spider-Venom It's about a person (Henry) that was abused (physically and verbally, but not sexual) since childhood and when grown up, raped someone and he knew it was wrong so he committed suicide. (Sorry for the bad English)
@Spider-VenomThey wrote the full story on a blog years ago that tells the actual story if you’re interested in knowing the story :) This is exactly what was written: ***** MONSTER SIDENOTES Hello. Here are the lyrics to Monster written by a collaboration of Meg and I. Many of our songs that we write, and many of the ones that will be on the new record are about stories. Stories about friends, about strangers, about history, and about characters in some of our most favorite books. Posted below are the actual lyrics to "Monster," as well as the short story I wrote next to those lines along time ago. [lyrics.] **************************************** Sidenotes and afternotes for the more curious and unsatisfied....by Dia. ********* The couch. Always behind the couch. Under the table. The closet under the stairs. Three places to run. Three places to hide. Every time their voices would rise I would run to the closest sanctuary and thank God I was small enough to fit. Those voices that ran across each corner of the room seemed to reverberate off my very skin. Dad. He told me to call him Sir. Never Dad. Mom. She told me to call her Hannah. She was so pretty when she slept. She was so pretty when she was happy. Now, her body of twenty years was old. Tired from no sleep, breaking from fingertips pressed into her sides, and boiling with too hard of liquor for her fragile, porcelain outline. After every uproar, every tear by her, and every empty bottle by himthey would come looking. Her, happy to see him turn his malice towards me. Him, happy to turn his malice away from himself. I was the six year old pathetic coward. Sir, I would say. My eyes would wander to Hannah with frightened curiosity. What had I done? I called him sir. I called her Hannah. They called me Henry at school. They called me Henry at church. They called me Monster at home. After black, they would confine me to my room. A tiny room with one window, where their words said minutes earlier would form long sentences and wrap around in a circle above my head like those music boxes loving mothers would clip to the sides of their infants cribs. I hated my room. I hated the dark. They knew it, too, and took pleasure in locking me in. Locking me in where they could get me. Dear Reader: Please note, if you ever were a six year old child, remember what it was like to lay in bed and imagine that loud heartbeat pulsing thick from underneath your mattress. Remember that hand that hovered over your face once you closed your eyes. Remember that loud breathing that resided around your open window. The creatures. That white little girl that crawled towards you in the night, hair hanging around the neck, fingers outstretched To a child it is horrid. To an adult, it is a memory that most barely ever remember. Twenty years later. I didnt understand love. I didnt understand human connection. I only understood the weather: constantly changing. I understood change. I didnt understand safety, or any emotion, be it love, or hate, that could be unconditional. I was at my second year of college. I was striving to be a writer. I didnt trust the crowds. I would go to my apartment, sit at my small desk I had gotten at a garage sale, and stay there for hours with my books, my papers, and a bottle of brandy. Then the day would end, and Id get ready for the next. I slept with the lights on. Always. I didnt want many things, but every once in a while, I hate to admit, I would want to feel that popular emotion I had read about in so many books: love. I was scared to administer it myself. I was scared to feel for another person. So things happened. On the walk to my apartment I saw a girl in a red sweater. I pardoned her and asked her if she knew were Rebecca street was. She looked at me in a funny way, paused, and turned her back to me. My hands ran to her shoulders, my lips to her neck. Hard fingers, hard hands.her soft hair, thin ankles. I ran off, leaving the crème skinned girl crying at her violette bruises left in patches under her sweater and skirt. I had been born of glass but now I only felt apathy. No regrets, but still, that hard human pain that is there when you know you have done a terrible trespass. I went back to my apartment. I turned all the lights on and opened the window. The night was calm and beautiful. The wind brought in glow flies by the dozen. They did not bother me like they did to most locals here. They brought light and company and I loved them with all my heart. I broke the lamps and poured the liquid into the bath tub. Small shards of porcelain glass managed to mix in with the water as well, that was now pouring from the faucet. I added the remaining kerosene I kept under my sink and by my desk which I had used as a denaturant for my alcohol. Maybe it would have the same effect on me.. [end]

Just revealed in dnd to my players that they’ve been dead for nearly 100 years and are being resurrected by the three remaining gods as champions. Upon the realization that they are undead this was the best song I could think of to convey the emotions they’d feel
I love how no one’s going to proceed to give the band the rest of the recognition they actually deserve, they didn’t amass a large following and their music is actually so fucking good so it breaks my heart. I do know they played at warped tour tho so that’s kinda sweet.

The strange feeling when you discover a song from your teenage years, and you know that you would have LOVED it back then. I feel like I need to make up for 17 years of not knowing it
First time seeing the original, the monster dubstep song was an important part of my childhood. I always imagined little creatures/monsters sitting in front of a window in a dark room at night, anyone else?
*["Monster" Lyrics with Meg & Dia]* [Verse 1] His little whispers, "Love me, love me!" That's all I ask for, "Love me, love me!"

No, because this song is what I've been searching for forever. Start from childhood, naive me didn't know how to read, watching MMD video, and this music used to it, trying to search and here we are, until now this song is still a banger. Dayum time flew so fast
This song is based off a book about a boy who was abused his own mother didn’t love him because he came from a rape the mother would lock him in a room he was very apathetic the way he grew up effected him deeply in the book he did the same thing and ended up raping a woman and set himself on fire for what he did to her it’s called the east of Eden haven’t read it yet but it apparently is a very sad book
I miss those old days. It's nice that the image quality is like it was taken with a toaster and it's a little nostalgic. Those who are in 2024 may like the comment.😊
I’m so glad people are still listening to this! I never knew what it meant but was always slightly disturbed by it. Of course that drew me in even more! Thanks to those who explained the meaning. What a beautiful and poetic way to describe the cycle of abuse. And the musicians were so young when this came out!
The actual story is this... a boy named Henry was abused by his dad and ignored by his mother. He was made to call his dad sir and his mother by her name Hannah. Hannah is an alcoholic, presumably because she is a rape victim. This is why she ignores Henry, because every time she sees him she is reminded of the rape, hence why he says he is a "glass child" because he feels invisible. His parents both called him monster, probably because he was the result of a rape, and forced him in a dark room, where the only thing to do was to look out a window. This is where the lyrics "looking through the window" come from. Henry was never loved, so he didn't know how to. When he grew up, he went to college to become a writer. He was fascinated by the idea of love he read about in books, so one night on campus, he found a girl, made small talk, and when she tried to shrug him off he grabs her and puts his lips to her neck. What happens next is not mentioned in the short story but from the lyrics of the song you can judge that he also raped her. Because of this he feels incredibly guilty, so he goes to his dorm to denature his alcohol with kerosene, and from what I remember I'm pretty sure he puts a lamp in the bath tub water with the bulb smashed while he is in it, commiting suicide. What a lot of people don't talk about though, is that this story represents a reflection between mother and son. The mother was raped and eventually becomes a depressed alcoholic, whereas the son grows up a depressed alcoholic, to eventually rape someone. A moral tale that your actions can have a worse impending doom. Even though Hannah was raped, she had no right to disown a child that had nothing to do with it. The father could have even been the rapist.
You may have heard this song a few times in your childhood and it lingers in the back of your memory causing a nostalgic like feeling despite having no memories of it. It’s how I feel about moon base alpha songs
early-mid 2000s stuff just does that, dude. internet was a totally different place back then and not as mainstream as it is now. needless to say, this shit is great to listen to when unmotivated.
I was abused by my mom after my dad died for over a decade. This is the only song that speaks to me and awakens the pain. It took me a long time to make friends and be understood. I still feel like no one really understands me. Things are slightly better now. I’m 25. I hope one day to leave the pain in the past and love myself in this lifetime. Maybe soon. Maybe this song can cause a catharsis in me. It is little by little
I understand what you're going through even if I haven't really experienced the same thing for myself. I'm happy things are better for you, and you have a bright future ahead of you wherever you are.

@@Zatana3l I think this all the proof you need
@@Zatana3l animation memes, they’re just videos with a popular audio with fan made animation, and then lots of other people go into the trend
Yeah its So sad 😞 And finally over like a fucking tick-tock ,so fucking sad
Everytime i listen to this im amazed by how the lyrics fits so well with the melody and harmony, they really nailed the creepy, eerie feeling with this one. Even the remixed versions cant escape that feeling, they try to make it more bouncy and “edmy” and it still feels creepy af in my opinion.
If you also consider the lyrics are directly inspired by the book "East of Eden", the song fits even better (at least to me) as the song feels like the audio version of a storybook turned twisted and dark.

Becoming really alternative is how a lot of people deal with their trauma. Inside reflects outside type of deal. So in 2010 when you were laughing at alternative people it's entirely possibly you were treating heavily traumatized people like shit for how they chose to cope. Getting the absolute shit beaten out of me at home and then going to school the next week to get thrown down the stairs was my 2010s. Because of shit people, who could not mind their own business. I dont know, food for thought.

The nostalgia 😭 take me back
It hits different when you finally understand what the song is about...
@Spider-Venom It's about a person (Henry) that was abused (physically and verbally, but not sexual) since childhood and when grown up, raped someone and he knew it was wrong so he committed suicide. (Sorry for the bad English)

@Spider-VenomThey wrote the full story on a blog years ago that tells the actual story if you’re interested in knowing the story :) This is exactly what was written:
*****
MONSTER SIDENOTES
Hello. Here are the lyrics to Monster written by a collaboration of Meg and I. Many of our songs that we write, and many of the ones that will be on the new record are about stories. Stories about friends, about strangers, about history, and about characters in some of our most favorite books. Posted below are the actual lyrics to "Monster," as well as the short story I wrote next to those lines along time ago.
[lyrics.]
****************************************
Sidenotes and afternotes for the more curious and unsatisfied....by Dia.
*********
The couch. Always behind the couch. Under the table. The closet under the stairs. Three places to run. Three places to hide. Every time their voices would rise I would run to the closest sanctuary and thank God I was small enough to fit. Those voices that ran across each corner of the room seemed to reverberate off my very skin. Dad. He told me to call him Sir. Never Dad. Mom. She told me to call her Hannah. She was so pretty when she slept. She was so pretty when she was happy. Now, her body of twenty years was old. Tired from no sleep, breaking from fingertips pressed into her sides, and boiling with too hard of liquor for her fragile, porcelain outline.
After every uproar, every tear by her, and every empty bottle by himthey would come looking. Her, happy to see him turn his malice towards me. Him, happy to turn his malice away from himself. I was the six year old pathetic coward.
Sir, I would say.
My eyes would wander to Hannah with frightened curiosity.
What had I done?
I called him sir. I called her Hannah.
They called me Henry at school.
They called me Henry at church.
They called me Monster at home.
After black, they would confine me to my room. A tiny room with one window, where their words said minutes earlier would form long sentences and wrap around in a circle above my head like those music boxes loving mothers would clip to the sides of their infants cribs. I hated my room. I hated the dark. They knew it, too, and took pleasure in locking me in. Locking me in where they could get me.
Dear Reader: Please note, if you ever were a six year old child, remember what it was like to lay in bed and imagine that loud heartbeat pulsing thick from underneath your mattress. Remember that hand that hovered over your face once you closed your eyes. Remember that loud breathing that resided around your open window. The creatures. That white little girl that crawled towards you in the night, hair hanging around the neck, fingers outstretched To a child it is horrid. To an adult, it is a memory that most barely ever remember.
Twenty years later.
I didnt understand love. I didnt understand human connection. I only understood the weather: constantly changing. I understood change. I didnt understand safety, or any emotion, be it love, or hate, that could be unconditional.
I was at my second year of college. I was striving to be a writer. I didnt trust the crowds. I would go to my apartment, sit at my small desk I had gotten at a garage sale, and stay there for hours with my books, my papers, and a bottle of brandy. Then the day would end, and Id get ready for the next.
I slept with the lights on.
Always.
I didnt want many things, but every once in a while, I hate to admit, I would want to feel that popular emotion I had read about in so many books: love. I was scared to administer it myself. I was scared to feel for another person.
So things happened.
On the walk to my apartment I saw a girl in a red sweater. I pardoned her and asked her if she knew were Rebecca street was. She looked at me in a funny way, paused, and turned her back to me. My hands ran to her shoulders, my lips to her neck. Hard fingers, hard hands.her soft hair, thin ankles.
I ran off, leaving the crème skinned girl crying at her violette bruises left in patches under her sweater and skirt.
I had been born of glass but now I only felt apathy. No regrets, but still, that hard human pain that is there when you know you have done a terrible trespass.
I went back to my apartment. I turned all the lights on and opened the window. The night was calm and beautiful. The wind brought in glow flies by the dozen. They did not bother me like they did to most locals here. They brought light and company and I loved them with all my heart. I broke the lamps and poured the liquid into the bath tub. Small shards of porcelain glass managed to mix in with the water as well, that was now pouring from the faucet. I added the remaining kerosene I kept under my sink and by my desk which I had used as a denaturant for my alcohol.
Maybe it would have the same effect on me..

His little whispers, "Love me, love me!"
That's all I ask for, "Love me, love me!"
He battered his tiny fists to feel something
Wondered what it's like to touch and feel something
Monster, how should I feel?
Creatures lie here, looking through the windows
That night he caged her, bruised and broke her
He struggled closer, then he stole her
Violet wrists and then her ankles, silent pain
Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams
Monster, how should I feel?
Creatures lie here, looking through the windows
Time will hear their voices, I'm a glass child
I am Hannah's regrets
Monster, how should I feel?
Turn the sheets down, murder ears with pillow lace
There's bath tubs, full of glow flies
Bathed in kerosene, their words tattooed in his veins (yeah)
Why this song only 7 million veiw. Other English song which are releasing today get this mush view in one day

After over half a decade I finally found the song I heard on my aunt's MP3 player one time and couldn't get out of my head
It's such a good song
X2
I wanna meet your aunt
I saw 17 years ago n thought "uhhh this came out in the 80s?" Then remembered
It took me 14 years to realize what this song means. I used to think it's literally about monsters. But man the nostalgia from this song is amazing
I never gave it any thought of what it meant
Isn't this song just a rip off indie version of Flyleaf Fully Alive?
What's the meaning of this song?
@@ennardthefuntimepuppet6456 It's based on the book "East of Eden", the monster is the boy who was never loved
Just revealed in dnd to my players that they’ve been dead for nearly 100 years and are being resurrected by the three remaining gods as champions. Upon the realization that they are undead this was the best song I could think of to convey the emotions they’d feel
I love how no one’s going to proceed to give the band the rest of the recognition they actually deserve, they didn’t amass a large following and their music is actually so fucking good so it breaks my heart. I do know they played at warped tour tho so that’s kinda sweet.
Ikr!

The strange feeling when you discover a song from your teenage years, and you know that you would have LOVED it back then.
I feel like I need to make up for 17 years of not knowing it
The song, the music video, the look, the voice, literally everything about this video screams 2007 all over.
First time seeing the original, the monster dubstep song was an important part of my childhood. I always imagined little creatures/monsters sitting in front of a window in a dark room at night, anyone else?
Wait im not the only one who thought that?

Except not this version, the remix version which only features like one line from here
No, because this song is what I've been searching for forever. Start from childhood, naive me didn't know how to read, watching MMD video, and this music used to it, trying to search and here we are, until now this song is still a banger. Dayum time flew so fast
“Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams” damn that is such an amazing line, really really deep
U gotta be lil gurl lmfao if not then I cringe at u
r/im14andthisisdeep
@Someone Somewhere if you understand the meaning behind the song. Then it's really deep bro
@Someone Somewhere Look up what the song is about and then you'll see why
This song is based off a book about a boy who was abused his own mother didn’t love him because he came from a rape the mother would lock him in a room he was very apathetic the way he grew up effected him deeply in the book he did the same thing and ended up raping a woman and set himself on fire for what he did to her it’s called the east of Eden haven’t read it yet but it apparently is a very sad book
🎉And after over 17 years this blowed up.🎉
I miss those old days. It's nice that the image quality is like it was taken with a toaster and it's a little nostalgic. Those who are in 2024 may like the comment.😊
The 2000s punk and alternative scene was so awesome - miss that sound
And here I am searching for “Monsieur, how should I feel?” 😂😂
ANDON HOWARD Hahahaha LoL
BR?
I was searching up this is my year
After looking for this masterpiece more than 16years i finally found it on 2024😢
I’m so glad people are still listening to this! I never knew what it meant but was always slightly disturbed by it. Of course that drew me in even more! Thanks to those who explained the meaning. What a beautiful and poetic way to describe the cycle of abuse. And the musicians were so young when this came out!
stop looking so beautiful on a TH-cam comment😍
When i was a kid I thought this song is about a person who scared of monsters ;-; but no-
so what about?
Well technically it's not wrong, a person was scared of a monster, a real mad monster too.

song: *about a story of someone who raped somebody
tiktokers: 💃
😂
Ay hahaha
Funny cuz this is true lol
Wait really!?!
No, it's a story of someone _who_ raped (and then committed suicide).
The actual story is this... a boy named Henry was abused by his dad and ignored by his mother. He was made to call his dad sir and his mother by her name Hannah. Hannah is an alcoholic, presumably because she is a rape victim. This is why she ignores Henry, because every time she sees him she is reminded of the rape, hence why he says he is a "glass child" because he feels invisible. His parents both called him monster, probably because he was the result of a rape, and forced him in a dark room, where the only thing to do was to look out a window. This is where the lyrics "looking through the window" come from. Henry was never loved, so he didn't know how to. When he grew up, he went to college to become a writer. He was fascinated by the idea of love he read about in books, so one night on campus, he found a girl, made small talk, and when she tried to shrug him off he grabs her and puts his lips to her neck. What happens next is not mentioned in the short story but from the lyrics of the song you can judge that he also raped her. Because of this he feels incredibly guilty, so he goes to his dorm to denature his alcohol with kerosene, and from what I remember I'm pretty sure he puts a lamp in the bath tub water with the bulb smashed while he is in it, commiting suicide. What a lot of people don't talk about though, is that this story represents a reflection between mother and son. The mother was raped and eventually becomes a depressed alcoholic, whereas the son grows up a depressed alcoholic, to eventually rape someone. A moral tale that your actions can have a worse impending doom. Even though Hannah was raped, she had no right to disown a child that had nothing to do with it. The father could have even been the rapist.
ok
I've loved this song for 5 years. And I've never heard this. Thanks for the insight ♡
+haydenlafayden thanks
***** It was the story behind the song. You didn't have to read it.

When the length of the video has one more second than the amount of pixels. Truly the most relatable moment of all time.
😂
Damn, that was a good one.
Good eye yours is.
After 16 years I find the original
everyone’s obsessed with the chorus but for me it’s the “his little whispers love me love me” and the “the night he caged her bruised and broke her “

I never heard of this song but HOW is this making me so nostalgic?
That's the magic of early-mid 2000's songs.
es la energia de la chica al cantar y expresar lo que siente, ese sentimiento estuvo guardado por mucho tiempo, y solo tuvo que explotar
You may have heard this song a few times in your childhood and it lingers in the back of your memory causing a nostalgic like feeling despite having no memories of it. It’s how I feel about moon base alpha songs
@@mighty_robo i never heard a single beat from this song but it still hits me with nostalgia
early-mid 2000s stuff just does that, dude.
internet was a totally different place back then and not as mainstream as it is now.
needless to say, this shit is great to listen to when unmotivated.
Just a few minutes left!!! Keep your poop inside guys! I know we can do it!
I can’t believe this song is almost 20, Jesus time flies by. Used to listen to this song after finding it on creepy pasta videos
I was abused by my mom after my dad died for over a decade. This is the only song that speaks to me and awakens the pain. It took me a long time to make friends and be understood. I still feel like no one really understands me. Things are slightly better now. I’m 25. I hope one day to leave the pain in the past and love myself in this lifetime. Maybe soon. Maybe this song can cause a catharsis in me. It is little by little
I hope one day you are at peace and I hope it gets better even tho I’ll never understand I’m here for you
@@duckysguidetoshipping8930 Aw thank you so much for writing that. It means a lot
