The thing that is Michael that is not Michael that was Micheal that became Michael that doesn't want to be Michael that is Michael and now Michael doesn't exist.
AMAZING!! I love the line "it twisted me from man to tool". It really shows how little gertrude cared for her archival assistants. Quite the contrast to how much jon secretly cares about all his assistants.
@@benjaminjenkins2384 This is such an old comment but i mean,,, they said "how little", not "not". And I don't think this is as much of a questioning of her morality, like, of course the whole world matters more than these few people; it's just that realistically, most people wouldn't do what she did, because our brains are wired to value the people close to us too much to do things like this. As a psych major I think that in order to be capable of using these means for your ends you need to lack empathy on some level. (please read my tone as very lighthearted and friendly i do not mean to like. lecture you i just think shes so interesting)
This was my first introduction to the Magnus Archives and several years later and and an entire series binged I'm now a huge fan of the whole thing, thank you so much for introducing to me this fandom!

Can I just say I love the way that you did the editing of the vocals? Like it really mimics the way that his voice overlaps in front of when he speaks (there’s no point of trying to explain it, it’s his voice) especially near the end and it really captures it really well!
THIS IS AMAZING HOLY SHIT, i never thought of a self aware michael and this is just BRILLIANT, the chorus is so catchy and the drawings / editing matches the tone of the song so well (also ur voice is insanely good), the spiral is my absolute favourite entity and this is AMAZING
To use dissonance, purposefully breaking harmony is such a difficult and tricky thing to get right. At first, I was put off, naturally, but then a rhythm came from the lack of rhythm and I just had to losten more closely. Suffice to say, I'm quite impressed and glad to have found this.
The beginning of this song always makes me feel weirddd. Like, it gives me a sort-of headache and turning in my stomach, which honestly?? So fitting. Thank you for giving me migraine, i love it :-)
i've been going through your vids after finding out your video about the daisy comments was uploaded here and?? this is SO good omg why is this not so much more popular???? michael is one of my favorite characters and this song and interpretation of him is absolutely WONDERFUL *chef's kiss*
Holy shit the MUSIC!! Whatever you did with the instruments to make them so disorienting is GOLD they fit so well together and to the themes of the song holy shit
I LOVE IT!!!! also i love that without knowing the character the lyrics just sound like some weird metaphor, but if you know the character it just clicks perfectly lol
Currently in the most vivid acid trip of my life, off this song rn. It's the bombest thing. I'm literally getting eye hallucinations n shit sitting in 100% pitch blackness. I love it, my skin is melting.
A song about my favourite character?? Who are you and why do you know exactly what I need? Also your voice is so pretty!!! Love that you put so much talent, work and creativity in this! 💖💖
I started working for her when I was still young. Thought that place could answer could answer things I didn’t know how to ask. I chased answers for years; something to quiet my mind, And I knew she had the knowledge I sought to find. I had a flaw you lack and that flaw was trust. I wish I kicked it down in time and crushed it to dust. Things are more than they appear, doors and people too. The veil between faith and falling is easy to fall through. Now I can’t see my own limbs, they fade in and out. And there’s bones where there shouldn’t be. My voice is always being mocked back at me, except for the times it speaks before I speak. I don’t have all of who I was, maybe I was a fool full of so much care for others it twisted me from man to tool. Now I’m just some tragedy that hurts your eyes to perceive. Won’t you came through my door, keep me company? She was forgetful, yet had so much behind her eyes. Knowledge barely contained, within her frail frame. I couldn’t tell what there was, but the was a density there. Indescribable things always crowding her air. I had the feeling if she told me, I could not begin to understand. There were times I’d feel ignorant and useless. Feeling she was seeing a world with an added dimension, all I could do was give her all my trust and attention. Now I can’t see my own limbs, they fade in and out, and there’s bones where there shouldn’t be. My voice is always being mocked back at me, except for the times it speaks before I speak.

OMG THIS IS AMAZING thank you for this masterpiece you are truly a gift to humanity, I haven't been able to get thus song out of my head for weeks and the I don't want to
Me: ugh the rhymes aren't where I expect them to be
Me:
Me: ......
Me: ITS THE DISTORTION OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT
Also applies to the number of syllables in each line
I'm desperate to rework the lyrics but it makes too much thematic sense the way it is
@@Queer_Nerd_For_Human_Justice Oki question. How would some part look like? I do not know what right rhymes are
we stan hallway husband
catch me bumping this at 2 am while sobbing over him
😔✊
Well, this comment aged well.
It safe to say i relate to this comment

I wouldnt say that she didnt care about them, just that they matter to her less than the ending of the world.

@@emsitdown9141 Thanks for the tone indication, and yeah, youre right.

I'm 30 sec in but I need to say this, YOUR VOICE IS SO LOVELY?? it's soooo pleasent to listen to and it also fits Michael super well!
AHHHHH thank you!!!!
Enby gang
Tragic how the ritual wouldn't have worked anyways, so Michael's transformation/death was really unnecessary
Wut why not my guy

THE SAME PERSON WHO MADE 'EATING MY COMPUTER' MADE THIS TOO?! I'M SCREAMING
this has been running through my head whenever there is silence and it’s not okay at this point tysm op
:') im so glad!
Crying over Michael at 2am
Real... Going through the same
I see that this is a universal experience (same)
absolute ledge. perfect banger to fit our knife finger king. adding to my tma playlist for continuous jam sessions
as a michael kin, the chorus at 2:47 nearly sent me into a panic attack
good shit elliot
i assure you this is a good thing
@@turntechgodhead1975 auuuu ok as long as it is Good, thank you!! wishin you the best
@@elliotly you too!!!! lovely song, mr elliot, would kin again
i really love all the distorted rippling effects in this...especially that hypnotic multi-layered michael during the chorus
Can I just say I love the way that you did the editing of the vocals? Like it really mimics the way that his voice overlaps in front of when he speaks (there’s no point of trying to explain it, it’s his voice) especially near the end and it really captures it really well!

THIS IS AMAZING HOLY SHIT, i never thought of a self aware michael and this is just BRILLIANT, the chorus is so catchy and the drawings / editing matches the tone of the song so well (also ur voice is insanely good), the spiral is my absolute favourite entity and this is AMAZING
It would be cool if the distortion keeps Michael alive but trapped as the distortion so he feels is distorted body while having no control of it
Would work to because it would generate a lot fear
oh mannnnnn this is absolutely wonderful! hits where it hurts... love the art for this too! absolutely captured the vibe
thank you!!
Dude the left ear right ear thingy you did with the sound is so cool!! Definitely helps the mood

The ending is so good, especially with the echoing voice and the door closing 💚
Ive been listening to this song on loop for an hour and now i want to paint all my doirs yellow. Im not even spiral aligned im eye aligned.
Brb gonna go choreograph a sad lyrical dance to this song
love! the lyrics are so,, well worded.
thank u :')
i've been going through your vids after finding out your video about the daisy comments was uploaded here and?? this is SO good omg why is this not so much more popular????
michael is one of my favorite characters and this song and interpretation of him is absolutely WONDERFUL *chef's kiss*
thank you :')
I keep coming back to this over and over, it's stuck in my head by now
ahhh I love TMA and this is Great! I love your interpretation of micheal and the distortion in general it is so good and creepy !!
thank you!!!
YOOOO WTHHH HOW IS THIS SO ACTUALLY GODLY
IM VIBING TO THIS SO HARD RN
THE ART IS BEAUTIFUL, THE SINGING IS PERFECT AND THE LYRICS ARE AMAZING
Of course I would be happy to keep the Distortion company! Seems like a very polite being. Fantastic song!
I love this!!! It’s so catchy and I love the editing/art in the vid
Thank you!
Love this!!! Micheals story is told perfectly!! You did amazingly!! Your voice is lovely!
I found eating my computer by chance on SoundCloud, I think that was one of the best recommendations I'd ever had bc I found a new artist to love
just finished this episode and I'm in love with this song!
Thank you! :D
I don't know shit about The Magnus Archives, but Spotify recommended me this song and it's amazing :)
The song sounds delightful! Recorded a short Micheal-esc video to the unknown/too many bones lyrics. Lovely job =)
Holy shit the MUSIC!! Whatever you did with the instruments to make them so disorienting is GOLD they fit so well together and to the themes of the song holy shit
Hi yeah this is absolutely PHENOMENAL. Gorgeous singing, excellent lyrics, and gave me like 12093820 different feels. Thank you so much for sharing!!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I love Micheal and can't believe someone could make something this good without getting a ton of attention
I LOVE IT!!!! also i love that without knowing the character the lyrics just sound like some weird metaphor, but if you know the character it just clicks perfectly lol
This is REALLY well done! Damn Distortion's got me now because of this song. So thanks for that 😂
I would love to come into your doors and keep you company
What a bop
His voice is really mocking him, huh.
This song absolutely slaps. god i miss fuck hands mc michael 🤧🤧🤧
Very haunting

I found this randomly on spotify and was like.... WAIT A MIN IS THIS A TMA FANSONG??? THE DISTORTION!!!
Okay but this is so good??? What a bop!!!!
Micheal is one of my favorite characters and this song is so good! You sing like an angel!
Thank you!!

IM BACK HERE TWO MONTHS LATER LET'S GOOOOO
Just sitting? In a *pitch black closet *smoking pot, tripping more ass than last time!*
Love your work Elliot, could I cover this and make a Helen version possibly? I’d credit you of course and would probably make my own instrumental
of course!!
@@elliotly thanks hon! do you have somewhere I could contact you about possible collab work if you’re open to that?
So good!!
hey so like. just hypothetically. could I make an animatic for this? it might just be a partial one but like. the inspiration is Flowing
of course!
!!!!!
m mmmmmmmmmmmMM YES DISTORTIONNN
the (at this time) 2 dislikes are gertrude on different accounts
(also only 2 dislikes after almost a year?! wow! people like this song!)
Would you still call your hand a hand if it had so much bone?
How did you do the distortion effect on Michael?
Who is the one guy who disliked this
Why?
There are 2 now and they are both bastards
When this dropping on Spotify!?!?!?!
