    I love the part where he says,"This is Daniel Johnston speaking from a mental hospital. They tell me I'm crazy here, because I love the Mountain Dew so much! I can't get enough of the Mountain Dew!" The way he said the last part was so hilarious! I love Daniel Johnston. I love Mountain Dew also...

    So the jingle is actually an old Christian hymn called “Love Lifted Me” and Daniel rewrote the lyrics to make it about Mountain Dew. Even still, this kinda does make me want some Dew, R.I.P. Mr. Johnston

    If I'm going to drink soda I often opt for Coke or ginger ale. Tonight I was walking home and I was really thirsty so I stopped by a corner store to get something to drink. I perused the selections and for whatever reason decided to switch it up. I don't even really like Mountain Dew but I got 2 tall cans for $4. When I got home I started listening to music on TH-cam and a comment on a video (unrelated to Daniel Johnston) mentioned Daniel. I probably haven't thought about Daniel Johnston or listened to his music since 2007 when a couple of friends showed me his music and artwork in high school. So I decided to check out his stuff again. After listening to a couple of his songs I ended up on this song. Right at the end of the song at 1:15 where it shows 2 selections for Mountain Dew on the machine it dawned on me what I was drinking. I instantly got goosebumps all over my body. One can for me, one can for Daniel.

    Even with newer medications, bipolar disorder is extraordinarily difficult to treat. You can't fault someone for trying to self-medicate when the available treatments were not only ineffective, but came with some scary side effects (Brian Wilson suffers from severe permanent dyskinesia as result of being put on older psychiatric medications).

    • @TylerBergeronMusic
      @TylerBergeronMusic ปีที่แล้ว

      Many pubmed studies about Bipolar and a deficiency of phosolipids - lack of certain fats, acetyl l choline. Yes the oldest is lithium but the pharmaceutical grade is very toxic and requires blood tests. Take lithium orotate as it has the ability to cross the blood brain barrier so much less of a toxic dose. Keto diet and cutting back on high sugars like Mountain Dew that burn up more nutritional resources like vitamin B1 and B3 to process. Orthomolecular Medicine. Class 3 antipsychotics are what destroyed Daniel Johnston giving him tardes dykensia those violent shakes and overweight high blood pressure and high prolactin etc

    "Look, Danny baby. We love the part about enjoying mountain dew. That part was perfect. Right on the money... We just aren't that keen on announcing that mountain dew is the beverage of choice for demons. Yes, it's true that demons love our soda, but we're really trying to expand our product to be more appealing to the average human customer. Some people just aren't going to buy a product that they think might put them in league with demons."

      @nickcharles6530 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      People use many words that garble up the message and are unnecessary. The use of the word “like” to begin a sentence. “Just” is another one that gets used too much. If you aren’t referring to an abstract concept, then the word “literally” becomes redundant. E.G.- “I literally picked up the phone and called my grandma.” It makes sense, yet it has redundant wording.

      @MonkyMonk729 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @Steve G I hear you as far as the rampant misuse of the word "literally" goes... it's probably my biggest pet peeve when if comes to misused words. However, in Sloppy Doodles defense, this wasn't an egregious misuse assuming that she actually did buy Mountain Dew to drink while listening to this song, in which case she literally did that. There's just no real reason to use "literally" since there's no figurative sense to differentiate it from. I get that. But at least she didn't say something like, "I literally die laughing every time I listen to this."

    I didn't say that I believed it, I said that I was wondering.
    I don't think that it is "ignorant" to simply observe what is before me. Blues men went to the crossroads to make deals with Papa Legba. The Beatles and Black Sabbath made homages to Aleister Crowley. And yes, modern musicians often make veiled references to dealing with the devil.
    I'm not asserting anything, because I am not privvy to the facts of the phenomena, I am merely taking notes on what is visible to me.

    He should have tried sending it to the The Coca~Cola Co. to advertise Mountain Dew for Pepsi. Probably back fire for Coca~Cola.

I like how Mountain Dew tastes, but you know what - the color makes it look radio active. Slimer from Ghostbusters is probably held prisoner at some Pepsi plant. HA!

      Maybe they didn't want to insinuate that Mountain Dew is so good it puts you in a mental institution? Maybe they weren't interested in marketing it as a demonic soft drink? Who knows? But soda pop history was shaped, and this was not part of it.
      Nevertheless, I did go out and buy my first and only Mountain Dew after hearing this tune, demons be damned.
