This song was SO CLOSE to being called "Rabbit" you have no idea... but the hook "Knock Knock Who Cares?" was just too catchy! Also, I can't WAIT until you hear Michael Kovach's performance! IMO, he shows a side of Jax we've never seen before and it's gonna make you feel things... not necessarily GOOD things, but you'll feel things none the less.

VERSE 1:
Anybody who knows me at all
Knows that nobody knows me at all
Hey everybody let's all take a peek
At the tall purple freak
He's the jerk with the joke of the week
(Who needs him?)
Well maybe I know they need me to pretend
It's a joke, it's a game, 'till the end
Cause something tells me we're all gonna die
Even worse, we'll survive
And it knocks at the back of my mind
I hear the knocking almost everywhere
Sick of pretending that I'm unaware
Hate to admit it but I'm getting scared
Oh!
CHORUS:
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Never gonna catch me acting scared!
Don't Cry
Don't Scream
Cool as can be
Try to stop me if you dare!
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Knock Knock Who Cares?
VERSE 2:
I'm never ever gonna make friends again
What's the point when it's just gonna end?
And by the way, they're annoying at best
And at worst they're depressed
I'm surrounded by idiots
(Who needs 'em?)
And let's pretend that I care, which I don't
I would help if I could, but I won't
Cause something tells me we're all gonna die
Even worse, we'll survive
And it knocks at the back of my mind
I hear the knocking almost everywhere
Sick of pretending that I'm unaware
Hate to admit it but I'm getting scared
Oh!
CHORUS:
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Never gonna catch me acting scared!
Don't Cry
Don't Scream
Cool as can be
Try to stop me if you dare!
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Knock Knock Who Cares?
INTERLUDE:
Calm down' you're fine
This is all in your mind
Cruel jokes can hide
The feelings building inside
They're not your friends you don't care about them
You don't need to pretend, soon it's all gonna end
You've seen it happen again and again and again and again and again and again...
Knock knock, who's there?...
(Hi, I'm Kaufmo)
CHORUS:
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Never gonna catch me acting scared!
Don't Cry
Don't Scream
Cool as can be
Try to stop me if you dare!
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Knock Knock Who Cares?
Knock Knock Who...

HELLO DDR'S (Dedicated Description Readers)!!
In true Gabe fashion, I'm in a hurry because I have to get to the airport so I can fly to LA for a meeting, and also so I can catch my flight to Nashville in two days so Nate and I can drive to Georgia to HOPEFULLY premiere this song at MomoCon which honestly might not even work out because we didn't submit our paperwork in time and all the performing slots are taken up... But hey, at least you'll get to see us in Whose Line Is It Anyway and Cartoon Court!
Seriously though, I love being busy! It's better than being bored! Speaking of avoiding boredom, I recently got back into skydiving! I got licensed when I was in the Navy, but after my injury, I stopped jumping until about a month ago when I became obsessed with the idea of jumping out of my own ultralight! So I decided to buy my own parachute and get re-current! Here's a picture! x.com/BlackGry...
Ok, that's all I have time for. Gotta blast! (Jimmy Neutron anyone?)
Love ya!
~Gabe (and Nate)
Gabe I want you to know I listen to your music like all the time. It's so genuinely good and I always feel silly being such a big fan of a friends work, but I hope you keep soaring, we're so proud of you
Yooo! I love your game!!!!
The feeling is so mutual it’s scary!! 😭 You guys are the BEST and I am so honored I get to work with you! 🖤
OMG BILLIE BUST UPPPP
OMG Hello there!! I'm so glad to see you here! ^^
You're both amazing!! ❤
Hi
I love how at the beginning Jax says “ugh, here we go again.” Almost like he’s being forced to sing all of these songs everyone’s making with him featured.
Omg yes
He looks like he's vibing with it I think he said "ugh here we go again" to the door who always knock he's door
@@humaycoco7895 yeah maybe
LMAO. 😭
@@Rocco180 yeah
I find it interesting how Michael Kovach is mainly doing the part that reflect Jax's hidden feelings that he buries with cruelty and rudeness, like the idea that his actual voice is connected to his actual self.
Or maybe not, what do I know XD
thats such a cool theory holy shit

“We’re all gonna die, even worse, we’ll survive” WTF THAT’S SO GOOD
Suicidal Jax anyone?
Did you just say wt#
@@AuDHD_Teen what? no, it is because they are stuck forever in the digital circus
@@Stoppas-b1d I know. But he is saying he would rather die than live, so it does feel a little suicidal to me.
@@AuDHD_Teen when he says "die" he talks about the corruption. When he say live, he mean going crazy by being stuck forever (like Kinger)
2:11 I love that Michael sings as Jax when he's trying to convince himself that he's not scared, when deep down, he is. 💜💛💜

@Kawaii_gal Michael is so good 😊
@@shaniceball9052 ikr, he is amazing
@Kawaii_galI love him as Angel Dust in the Hazbin Hotel Pilot and "Addict" music video 😊🤍💗🤍
I like how “Knock Knock” has many meanings:
Knock Knock could mean someone is physically outside his room knocking
Knock Knock could mean the cold reality of his situation settling in and he can’t handle it
Knock Knock could be him just telling another joke before abruptly ending it with “WHO CARES”
I love the multiple interpretations the line can have.
I interpreted the "knock knock who's there" part as if Jax was somehow trying to "mock" his own fear. He keeps saying he hears something knocking "in the back of his mind" and "almost everywhere." This something is the constant fear of his new reality in in the circus. When the song is about to reach the chorus, Jax's anxiety increases and the only way he has to stop it is by doing the thing he knows how to do best: moking.
fear continues to "knock" so it answers with "who is there?" and “who cares?”
Oh I never realized that! That's pretty cool
Maybe it's all the above
I love this song. I saved it.
2:23 When he says "they're not your friends" it seems almost as if he is trying to reassure himself to try and not get attached
I love when he's jumping up and down, I like that part
As well as his face when he's about to smash the picture, his pupils looking funny
His pupils look spaced out, like he’s a psychopath
he kinda sounds like n tbh
@@thatonepowersimp Cause it's the same voice actor Jaxs actor Micheal kovach, N's Actor Micheal kovach go take a look at the credits
@@thatonepowersimpbecause micheal kovach voices both n and jax, including other characters
@@thatonepowersimp If he went down zooble's route then he would tweak and panic when he's not the invincible cartoon rabbit he thinks he is, when he can't use his antics on the monster
I can just imagine Caine at the door with his pupils completely shrunk listening to Jax screaming: *“AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN-“*
doing that weird slow sideways float like when bubble said some horrible thing in episode 2
“JAAAAX COME ON OOOUUUTT”

“Anybody who knows me at all knows that nobody knows me at all.”
Why is the hardest hitting line the first one 💀
Yeah bro like that doesn't make sense
@Ahmed-cx2rl-g5n It is a paradox, but it does make sense if you separate "him" (the cruel persona he puts into keeping distance) from HIM (the little cat scared to death of losing anyone and abstracting). Who knows, maybe he wasn't like that when he first went in, or maybe he has abandonment issues.
@@Ahmed-cx2rl-g5n”hardest hitting” implies that line has a powerful meaning, not that it doesn’t make sense.
When talking about yourself, you may say something like “Anybody who knows me knows that I (..)” to explain how you always act the same way so anybody who is even an acquaintance knows that you act in that specific way.
This line is saying that anybody who has ever known Jax long enough to know even a little bit about him should know that he’s mysterious and that there’s truly no way to actually understand or know him. Anybody who knows him at all, even a little, should know by now that no one, not even themselves, truly knows Jax.
You can tell Michael genuinely loves doing Jax with how much he goes the extra mile with fan content like this.
He’s extremely dedicated to his craft! But I should also point out that we worked together on Hazbin Hotel and Billie Bust Up, so this is more collaboration between friends than strictly fan content.
@@BlackGryph0n Good point! Still though, keep up the good work. Ya'll have real mad talent.

How many are there? I’ve only seen two besides the many “knock knock who cares x _____”
@@pastelbluemoonjax toy and digital hallucinations are 2 more he did
@@kaitlyngriffin5999 cool! I recently found some more and wow he’s in a lot 😅
@@pastelbluemoonAlso that song call "funny things"
@@pastelbluemoon jax toy, abstraction, and digital hallucinations are some of the ones he did ^^
I don’t know whether this is intentional or not, but I like the ambiguity of the ending and how it implies two things: either Jax is finally going to let someone in or worse, his walls are starting to crack and he might abstract soon.
First person to get this!
I think it’s him finally letting someone in, per se, because it’s someone knocking at the door and it finally opening, whether he opens it voluntarily or they break it down.
Personally think closest to abstracting is Jax. Others just seem quirky... But he's close and he knows it. Possibly why he's always disappointed about the lack of violence, because it's something he enjoys and he wants to experience it in his last days unabstacted
Oh! He's a jerk because he doesn't want to get attached to the other players and feel pain when either they or he goes away
@@BlackGryph0n i got it but i know i was proplly too late
At the start it was smart to say “ugh here we go again “because I think he knew that everyone was gonna watch this 100,000 times .
For real!😅
I choose to believe the little "Here we go again" at the beginning is referencing the many fan songs, theories, etc. about Jax.
or just fan songs that actually feat. micheal kovach (no girls toy, jax toy) im not sure if theres more but yk
@@MillieOopthat’s why they said fan songs

@@MillieOop no girls toy isn't a fan song, its from the movie raggedy Ann and Andy in a musical adventure, Micheal Kovach just covered it.
I love that his voice raises a bit near the end, at the "Knock knock, who's there" from him, almost to cover up his own thoughts. To try and convince himself that he isn't scared, that he isn't cracking like an egg.
Same! Also, how does this comment have 693 LIKES yet NO replies!?
@@TheParrotPlays No clue. I just think it's people who don't really like to reply since likes are anonymous-

Probably. 😏💜
@Najeeb10003 bot
no...he's ur man LMAO or in this case rabbit so u should be happy
I mean. You probably won’t be scared. I mean. You are the number 1 simp of Jax.
Genuinely how is Micheal Kovach SO GOOD AT ANYTHING TO DO WITH HIS VOICE?! He's a remarkable voice actor and an incredible singer too?! This is legit insane
I really love how the song explains Jax's personality and behavior perfectly imo. His selfish and careless behavior is his fear of abstraction. He's mean to others and pushes them away in order to avoid getting hurt because what's the point in caring about them if they're just going to be gone at some point because he has probably seen it over and over again.
Yeah, I really like the fact that he's only hurting others out of fear, not pure cruelity. This shows that he's not heartless, more likely just broken. And even tho he's fictional, it made me feel better that I'm not alone with this problem. (I also push people away sometimes, even my own friends, bc I'm scared of getting hurt again (my "friends" in other schools hurt me often). And I hate that I hurt people, I just can't help it.)
The way he put “Jax’s song” and “Pomni’s song” in brackets makes me think he’s going to do a song for each circus resident. I’m curious about Kinger’s song that’s gonna be insane.
That’s what I’ve been saying! Like Imagine if Ragatha, Kinger, Gangle, and Zooble all got their own songs that reflect who they are in some way
NAH WHAT ABT KAUFMO’S SONG!! WHAT IF IT SHOWS HIM BEING INSANE THEN ABSTRACTED!
@@ImInSunnysClosetOrWalls that would be VERY interesting
Yeah I hope e'll do other songs with Circus gang
the line "i really need a shotgun" should show up somewhere
Meanwhile Ragatha next door: **just hears Jax putting on a musical while she's trying to sleep**
*"DAMNIT JAX I GET IT NOT AGAIN-"*
@@Raggy_df Imagine if she was knocking on the door to tell him to tone it down 😭
@@suspiciousstar I'd love if the knocks really were Ragatha😭 Either that, or throughout the song she's trying to check on him.
@@Raggy_df NEW HEADCANON.
@@suspiciousstar YES. I LOVE THESE HCS
Im putting this here so that whenever sombody likes it, i can be reminded of this masterpeice.
This completely embodies my headcanon of Jax. He acts rude and careless because he's afraid to make connections, because every time he does, they suffer a brutal and heartbreaking fate.
Well, just look at kauftmo, he seem genuinely sad when they mentioned his funeral, just for a second his face soften.. Just to quickly snap back to his persona and go away... That's why they put such focus in this song about the "knock knock" is a type common of joke, yes jax does jokes an pranks and stuff, but the "knock knock" actually reminds more of the character of kauftmo, always doing bad jokes, the only character who's death really seem like affected jax... It was also kauftmo hands shown on that part of the song, jax also share his bowling ball to kauftmo, and also had the nickname kofee for him, it actually is posible those two were close... That's what I feel the song is also trying to reflect
@@frangolles "the only character whose death really seemed like it affected jax" i mean yeah, it's true, but kaufmo is also the only character who has died so far, except for gumigoo who he didn't even have a chance to connect with him. but, maybe we'll see later about that.
I like the theory that Jax is an NPC that Cain somehow overlooked
Qweraecuy❤🎉 of😊😢😅😮
@@Acemancellohelp I read that as "overcooked" 💀

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened thrice.
Haminashons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@Leah-ez9xwbrudyanumuates
@@Leah-ez9xwhamnations didn’t make the joke
This song really reminds me of what I love most about Jax. He dissociates himself so it's easier for himself when his friends inevitably abstract. He chooses to cause problems because he's done the same monotonous stuff so many times that it's become boring for him, and he finds that making his own fun is more entertaining than following along with whatever plot Caine sets in front of them.
I hope you like him after ep 2 still
@@MochiMey123 Yeah I like him even more.
this, this is why i love Jax ngl, it's honestly really cool seeing how each character tries to cope with the situation, zooble trying to just not partake in any of the adventures and going to her own space, similar to Kinger and his pillow fort, etc.
We got more of a look into Jax's mind in this song than we have in the show. I really like to believe this is all cannon. I mean it makes sense.
@notdeadyet-ty2kf well we haven't gotten the Jax episode jet.
Pomni: “I'm doing fine”.
Jax: “Wish I could say the same”.
I can't get over the line at the beginning. Jax was like "Here we go again" like he has to sing this song again and again and again and again when people play it on repeat because it's such a banger.
REAL
I think you have a good point
I keep restarting the song and he’s like ugh stop gurl
@@itz_Cakepop same
"Ugh here we go again" 1:45
the line, "Something tells me we're all gonna die. at worst, we'll survive" goes SO hard
REALL I KEEP REPEATING IT OVER AND OVER LMAO
fr, and it makes so much sense ngl.
This feels like Jax's version of Poison...and its amazing!!!
Facts
Edit: I’m surprised my comment has over 100 likes… thank you guys so much❤
Right?? All I can hear is Jax going: "It's not an ACT! It's who I NEED to be, and this? This is my escape... where I can forget about it all, how much I hate... EVERYTH!NG!"
Glad you said that. 😅
Yep
Interestingly enough, my brother, who co-wrote and produced this song, has never heard Poison! He was inspired by Blinding Lights (which is likely also what inspired Poison).
As of episode 4, this is starting to represent jax a lot more, going off of how differently he acts at some points in the episode
Omg I was thinking of the same thing.
Wow. This is amazing. Another TADC song featuring Michael himself!!
And it's even better that we see Black Gryph0n and Michael Kovach together again(Hazbin fans understand)
Amazing? That it?
all hazbin fans are brothers from another mother.
theyre also together in Billie bust up as fantoccio and barnaby!
Exactly. "I've had enough of you" and "A Million Gruesome ways to die" are my favorites@@CloudyDays_
Ofc :)
I AM ABSOLUTELY OBSESSED. The voice of Alastors singing voice and Angel dust in the hazbin pilot SINGING TOGETHER??? this is an amazing song! Michael's voice is so beautiful so is black gryph0ns! Amazing work!
All of the comments I've read are about hazbin hotel(I'm not complaining though I love that they're together as well)
WHY IS EVERYONE FIRGETING ABOUT BBU😭😭😭
I
Michael seems to be taking every opportunity possible to prove that he is a good singer, since so many people said otherwise because of "Addict". Bitch, he was singing in character!
“We’re all gonna die, even worse we’re survive” That line hit HARD 🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥
me everyday
Love the song
My older brother introduced me to this song and now I listen to it mostly every single day
His smile almost reminds me of Alastor’s smile
You know what? Maybe I do like Jax! It makes complete sense why he's a jerk, he's trapped in a world where nothing he does matters, he can't die, but terrible things can happen anyway. Anyone he cares about suffers such fate, so why care at all? Choosing not to care does better for his sanity, he has it figured out
He definitely has advodiamnt attachment issues
As Much As I Kinda Dislike Jax, I Can Only Feel Bad For Him. It Totally Makes Sense Now
The pilot singing voice of Alastor and Voice Angel Dust together again
Can't forget the fact that their both voices in Billie Bust Up with Gabriel being Barnaby and Michael being Fantoccio.
I’m sad that they replaced basically all of the voice actors in Hazbin Hotel from the pilot but then again the new ones DO ROCK! But I will never forget the original cast ❤
what
Together again, again
Gee, it's good to be together again, again
I just can't imagine that you've ever been gone
It's not starting over, it's just going on
Together again, again
Now we're here and there's no need remembering when
'Cause no feeling feels like that feeling
Together again
...
😆
yep yea
“You seen it happen again and again and again and again and again”
Gives off the same vibe as
“I’ll be here day after day after day after day after”
So teal
Real* but yeah
Omfg yesssssss
true
@@Levi-RoseWilletts4828 oops yea sry I meant real
People who mischaracterize Jax needs to watch this, this reflects his character so well I love this song
On this song, Jax is telling us that he is hiding the kindness and depression with his rudeness, just to keep himself alive and sane in the circus. Great song, BlackGryp0n! 5 stars of 5.💪🔥🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Edit: thanks for the likes, but BlackGryp0n deserves them all
This comments sums up my social life, I have to mask my kindness and depression with rudeness, just to keep the world out
@@Avsi7340 That's what Jax did in episode 1 and 2 of TADC(the amazing digital circus).
I dunno. I haven't seen much of TADC, but to me Jax seems like he could become a villain based on his attitude.
I think real Jax is just a prick. The creator themselves said he's not a hero or anything and confirmed that's just how he is when fans got mad about him being mean. Then again, who knows? They could be pulling a fast one on us and Jax is just tired and being an a-hole keeps things interesting for him. 🤷🏽♂️
@@Sethoffgrid …I’m still betting he’ll become a villain. Who knows?
As a music nerd, this is absolute ear candy.
One, I love the synthwave vibe. It fits with the implication that the Digital Circus is an older computer program, as we see in the first episode we fly into an old computer from the 90s or 2000s. Not exactly the same time period, but it's a nice touch.
2:39 THE KEY CHANGE. Almost as if the first bit of the song up until now was just kind of a fact, but now it's getting serious. It's getting into his head and things are getting more intense, hence the change in key.
Kovach's little "knock knock who's there" in the first prechoruses really hit hard, and really solidify that this is Jax, using his actual VA. (This was written on the first listen, before I knew that Kovach had his own verse and provided extra vocals to the last chorus.
And in the runs for the word "cares" in the chorus, there's a note that seems a bit diminished, and adds to the uneasiness. (It's hard to point out in text but you can hear it at 1:05 and 2:06 )
And finally the lyrics contradict each other a lot, especially in the second verse. "And let's pretend that I care, which I don't" "I would help if I could, but I won't" It reflects the internal battle in his mind. He wants to make friends, but because of all of the suffering and pain he's witnessed in his time in the Circus, he forces himself to act sadistic and mentally puts them down in order to distance himself from them.
Great track! Keep it up!
I just noticed so much more after reading this😭
“Everybody who knows me at all, knows that nobody knows me at all” This line was so true and real. We see people in different perspectives & they see us differently. Only we know ourselves the most.
Everything leading up to 3:28 was the best part of the song
This part is like Jax talking to his self: "Calm down, you're fine" "This is all in your mind" it feels like when he enter to the game and with the time he relice " Cruel jokes can hide, the feeling's building inside " and traying to don't lose his sense: "They're not your friends, you don't csre about them" I can see Jax having those thoughts.
Love in the series, we can't see what Jax is thinking, so we see him as a cocky jerk, but you portrayed as a panicked dude trying to keep it together.
Top tier quality.
@FrostsightWCUE Jax is also my favorite lmao
I don’t know if anyone noticed but at the end of ep 2 when Ragatha talks about the funeral Jax’s expression is definitely close to mourning
Then he goes back to being like “WHO CARES”
2:18 his face-
I LOVE the mix of Micheal and Gabes voices in the Bridge, and the contrast between Gabes smoother voice, and Micheal’s more aggressive take is SO COOL
This is gonna be a HIT 🔥🔥🔥🔥
NOBODY'S TALKING ABT HOW FUNNY JAX IS DANCING IN THE BACKGROUND WHILE THE WORDS ARE COMING PFF-
I love how this song and Jakeneutron’s Jax toy perfectly capture the two big interpretations of Jax across the fandom.
One has him as a guy trying to distance himself with apathy to avoid pain.
The other portrays him as someone who’s an irredeemable asshole out of pure boredom and kicks.
And because Gooseworx once said Jax deserves to be in the circus more than anyone, both are totally valid.
ngl i use both headcanons lmao.
Same coin different sides
beside people may punch there ticket to get to a bad place but it not like the road they were on was easy, like Mayberry from Helluva Boss Episode 1, she was good all her life did one bad thing and got the boot, which other will have a terrible life that make them do horrible stuff
Jax may deserve to be in it but he still human capable of change and/or regrets let's just see where it goes
@@toastedprocastinator A possible fusion of the two could be that he *was* an irredeemable asshole before the Circus (hence why he deserves to be there more than anyone) but now he's scared and feels helpless but mostly just acts like an asshole because it's the only thing that gives him a semblance of normalcy.
I mean, jax toy definitely had some undertones of what this song says too, just Jax toy is actually intended to match jaxs personality meanwhile this one is not something he'd ever sing so it can be more explicit about his inner feelings
' Don't cry, don't scream, cool as can be! try to stop me if you dare! " that line always hits hard for me.
I sadly relate to that part so much..❤
I started getting panick attacks in October, and my anxiety has gotten a lot worse since then. This is legit the only song that could, and still can calm me down enough to breath.❤️
90% black gryphon got outed as a pedo

Same here. 😃 Maybe its because I see myself in him somehow. Sometimes it's easier not to bond with people
@@vangeliskleno4339yeah people are tiring
bro I'm one of them😂😭
@@shade_the_ink_demon not every character in existence needs to be the nicest bastard to ever exist
sometimes we need those psychopath's or the complete a**wholes you know not everyone trapped in a digital world will be nice
not everyone in the real world is and sometimes they wont change
i find characters like jax to be a sense of realism in a unrealistic situation
This is Jax's version of Poison. My brain keeps thinking he's gonna go "POISON YOU'RE FEEDIN ME POSION!"
My first thought
Honestly Angel and Jax remind me other each other sooo
Bro stop exposing my thoughts like that
I swear some of the instrumental, or maybe all of it is the Poison instrumental
how did you read my mind??? I KNOW THEY'RE SO SIMILAR, especially the beginning, when he goes "who needs him" I immediately fill in with "YEAH YEAH YEAH"
I think this characterization is soooo on point to his character and I really want to come back after episode 6 to say that again as well, cuz I genuinely believe he doesn't want to be friends with anyone or be liked or like anyone in that place cuz it's gonna end up hurting him in the end, so it's his chance to let the intrusive thoughts win and do whatever tf he wants to do and he's gonna take it out on everything and everyone.
This song is awesome, the lyrics are so true to the character!
Jax is my favourite character in this show and this song is gonna be on replay for a while now 😂💜
I think one of the reasons Jax is a sadistic freak is because it's a form of rebellion.
He doesn't play along with Cain's games. He instead with his limited autonomy acts the opposite of family friendly and breaks them. He's a hedonistic absurdist because there's nothing sustainable for a living human being in the Digital Circus. That will create outliers that respond in an extreme way like Jax.
Great song, I like that it gives him dimension without turning him into a 'woobie'.
I want to be partners in crime with him (yeah I’m not okay, no I’m not a simp) because that’s how broken I am. :p
2:36
THE LITTLE "Hi Im Kaufmo!"
COME ONNN
I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE THAT NOOOO
OH, MY GOODNESS, I DIDN'T NOTICE THAT!!!!!!!!!! XD That's cute!
SUCH A COOL DETAIL
rip kaufmo, I hope when u abstracted it wasn't painful😭😭💔💔💔
Yep. I cried when I first realized that :')
Great job with the song name! Framing "who cares?" as a question is genius. In the circus, we really don't know who of the characters actually care. Jax's intentions especially remain a mystery
I realized the potential double-meaning of that!
JAX IS NOT A BAD GUY he is just scared cus he keeps metinoing "i hear the knocking almost everywhere, sick of pretending that im unaware, hate to admit it but im getting scared" so its proof Jax is not mean. he is just scared
I adore how this shows Jax’s mindset. Like one voice is in Jax’s and the other are walls he puts up to keep himself sane. It’s in the beat, the lyrics and the way it’s sung and I love that SO much❤
The man is self conscious that i theorize that if he doesn’t act as “Oh I’m jerky for no reason!” He thinks the other casts of the digital circus would be treat him like a weakling. Which is actually a common though for people who act tough with depression. The man has these walls to keep himself from going into to much of a mental breakdown
@@cyndaquil1433THIS EXACTLY.
If you don't make connections you can't be hurt when you lose them
The idea that Jax has stopped being friendly because he has seen too many friends be abstracted is heartbreaking
Can I use that line in my Jax song?
@RECKLESSABANDON-n2t sure
@@ThePontiffofPonWolfthanks!
@@funnifrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrameesss np
Jax killing the butterfly and smashing the picture was personal 😭👍
Well yes, he doesn't want to be reminded of the one friend he had in here, kauftmo.. That's the point
@@frangolles yep 👍
@Denbytheshadow when what? I'm the show? Or in this animation?
@Denbytheshadow is about all the song "I'll never gonna make friends again, what's the point of its just gonna end"
The knock knock is an old joke.. And kauftmo makes those bad jokes all the time according to the rest... Before crushing the butterfly there's a little voice that says "is me, is kauftmo" and at the right there's a hand, the hand of kauftmo.. The painting jax destroyed contains kauftmo on it
@@frangolles Holy shizam! I JUST NOTICED THAT! I DIDN'T EVEN HEAR THE VOICE AND SEE THE HAND!
The way Jax reacts to " let's take a peek at the tall purple freak" is fun!😅
I love the ominous feeling at the "knock knock who's there?" part. I just feel like it opens a window to how Jax actually feels on the inside, and i find that interesting. Many people say he might abstract, but i really hope he doesn't! He has so much room for an amazing character arc, and i hope i get to see it! :]
Glitch said we’ll see more of his evil side in the next few episodes

But seriously, THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE IT SO MUCH
these lyrics are extremely relatable on every level. this is incredible
Exactly! I'm literally studying this song like a test cuz it's so good. I'm almost able to sing it without looking at the lyrics.
This shit relates to me on a spiritual level😭
Hey Palm!
@@SerenaVoiceActing hey! how you doing?
Great! How are yooouuuuuu!?!?!

Am I the only who thought of this?

No matter what song Black Gryph0n releases, it's still great to listen to
They're such a vibe.

Five centuries, ;-;

Deep down, we always know that the “toughest/meanest” fella once had a heart of gold.
Yet now, he’s willing to keep up with his “Carnival mask”, spreading jokes and twinkling silliness.
Another wonderful job! 🌟 My salutes to everybody involved into this work or art!
This is basically sou, and kokochi, other two people who are trap in a place with no way out, and causes problem for the group, but is heavily implied that they are just like that to cope with the situation they are in
I love the part with the finger guns and the lyric, “Anybody who knows me at all, knows that nobody knows me at all.”
Jax: "you've seen it happen again and again and again and again and again...."
Pomni: "You'll be here day after day after day after day after day after day....."
Amazing detail there, Gabe. Excelent Work
“They're not your friends you don't care about them You don't need to pretend, soon it's all gonna end You've seen it happen again and again and again and again and again and again”
Hits hard
as someone who's dealing with extreme anxiety and other things, I can relate to these lyrics so much. I hate the feeling of that depressive, manic, uncaring, passionate pondering. i think this really captures what Jax is going through...thanks for making an undoubtedly relatable song! (also was that a lore drop with the "you've seen it happen again and again"?!)
I hope you can make it through the extreme anxiety you’re dealing with. I used to go through that, but thankfully I’ve managed to move on. I know you can too.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!!! I LISTEN TO IT 24/7
Jax left and sang this song in his room during Kaufmo's funeral. Kaufmo made knock knock jokes, and he's trying to convince himself he doesn't care. I love this
I Could See That Happening, Jax Doing A Musical Number While Everyone Else (Gangle, Zooble, Kinger, Ragatha, Pomni) Attend Kaufmo’s Funeral
2:50 pomni: i think jax is going insane ragatha:yeah.
There is no way pomni is talking 💀
Black gryph0n is Barnabys voice actor
@@AnAuthenticLife Pomni is one of the most insane characters in the actual show beside kinger , obviously
Y,v,vjco\flcnaydd get scared
Y,v,vjco\flcnaydd get scared
been listening to this on repeat and now it feels like jax is saying "ugh, here we go again" to hearing this song over and over again XDDD it's in character ngl
'At worst they're depressed' while showing Gangle aged so well. Love the song!
Pomni: Jax are you okay?
Ragatha: Pomni what are you doing?
Jax: (having a breakdown)
Caine: JAX GET OUT OF YOUR ROOM
I feel like this is a message to the people who keeps saying he is a horrible character, knowing he was going to be like that, I don't know why they are acting like they didn't know he would be that mean. Me personally, I love Jax because just like Angel Dust with the mean attitude they're actually nice on the inside. This song definitely suits Jax. I love him so much, and I love that Micheal Kovach plays as him.
I say jax is a horrible person cuz he let the fudge monster in to eat all the cute candy people
@@inkedthedemon well that is his character, deal with it
@@Angel-Dust-0303 jax isnt nice on the inside tho lol still love him
@@inkedthedemon those candy people are npcs
Here's a fun fact that not a lot of people seem to know: No one is obligated to share your opinion. If you like this character, there's nothing wrong with that, but there's nothing wrong with hating him either. Just because this cartoon character is a jerk doesn't mean you should be.
A Jax that’s secretly going insane and ends up saving everyone else in the end might be the greatest idea anyone has ever had

In Knock Knock Who's Poisoned -
Jax: "Don't cry, don't scream"
Angel Dust: "OOOOOOOOOOOOHH"
2:11 damn jax's singing voice is actually soothing
agree
Xududufyfi 0:47
FRRRRRR it's so soft 😭😭💜
0:14 ntgl that looks like an angel dust pose LOL
They are voiced by the same person
Yea in the pilot of hh Micheal kovac voiced angel dust(srry if i spelt his name wrong)
Noice I know
Not helped by the fact that this song sounds like Jax's version of "Poison" 😅
Yass
Ragatha: knocks on jax's door
Jax: time for a musical number!
XD
Lol 😂
This seems like jax would just be singing it in the amazing digital circus like its his villain song. This is SO GOOD. Definable my new fav technically villain song
2:23 Can we talk about the melody of TADC behind Michael!! It’s such a good detail
It Literally Sounds Like N Singing TBH, Even Though I Know They’re Different Characters Voiced By The Same Person
THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING! IT'S SO COOL
This has been such a wonderful year for digital circus music 🎪🎪
Yep
@Najeeb10003 у тебя в нике Наёб, Я сомневаюсь.
Speaking of good TADC fan songs there’s another one called “I’m gonna make it hurt” it’s BARS
*coughs the Pomni x Gummigoo song e x i s t s*
@@ItzPokemon no……..
Art.
That’s the word that describes song the best. This doesn’t just seem like a TADC song, it seems like a song that you’ll probably heard in tour by like, REALLY popular musicians as of today. Wow.
Interesting detail: around 2:35 with the butterfly, you can hear a distorted "Hi! Im Kaufmo!"
...The loss of his friends does affect him (in this song and based on that brief second in episode 2,) he just cant show it
It probably doesn't, but does at the same time. He's very much capable of handling it. So there goes the no effect part, but he does care but there's no point anyways so he DOESN'T care.
@@Metal-b1snah it does affect him. If it didn't affect him, he wouldn't switch to anger like he did in episode 2; he'd have sighed and followed along. Which he didn't. He even avoided being on his (kaufmo's) funeral. He acts heartless to hide his weakness.
@@slapnec If he cared so much he’d care, that’s that. Does it make him go crazy seeing other human beings die? Yeah.
@@slapnec Also like the song even claimed, he finds the pomni, kinger, etc. Annoying, and dumb. If he wants to be a nice guy he'd be a nice guy.
This scares me

I don't know why but whenever I see FNAF references in something un FNAF related it feels like the fandom grabbing me by the ankles, and dragging me back 😭😭

YOU CAPTURE HIS CHAOTIC CONFUSING "YOU CARE OR NO?" PERSONALITY WELL

Jax: Ugh... here we go again
Omg fr
That's my mom and dad when I listen to songs in repeat 🤣
The “Hi, I’m Kaufmo” 😱😱 2:34
They should make the total opposite of this song, so basically Jax when he is sad
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I’m honestly starting to theorize that those two must’ve had some kind of connection with each other
@@beta_playz2008youre right. In the end of ep 2 he got sad when he heard about his funeral
kinger: We've got 2 shots, lets make them count, sees this 2:38 *shoots jax repeatedly*
Gangle:w-what!?!? Happend?:<
*continué of u want.*
Another Black Gryph0n banger! We all know Jax does somewhat care about the others, but pushing everyone away with his selfish and careless behavior in fear of abstraction will probably do the exact opposite for him. Instead of it keeping him alive, it pushes away the last people that could ever give a damn about him, maybe leading to his *own abstraction* instead of preventing it.
I love how this song describes how I try so hard to hide my emotions and not show I’m anxious, but through out this year I learned that my anxiety wasn’t a burden but rather the way I was using it was and I learned that my anxiety is apart of who I am. That’s why my philosophy is that anxiety is a teacher and not a burden.
Jax hanging up Gangles picture: 🥹
Jax whacking Gangle seconds later: 😐
He hit the picture lmao
Ngl, jax never touched gangle at all, the ones who break the masks are the others, I'm not saying jax is a angel.
But I'm saying people forget pomni and random npc broke the mask too.
