A Lyrical Analysis of Neil Cicierega's "Just A Baby""

For a long time, I have mused about the nature of art. What is it? Why do we find it important? What meaning can we find in it? I haven’t figured out the answer to any of that yet, so I made this instead. I don’t actually address it in the video anywhere to maintain reality disconnection, but yes this is my first April Fool’s video and considering how much effort this took I’m never making another one again. I should have just done a sequel to the Todd Howard AMV… Anyway, I did actually put a bit of effort into this, so enjoy.
Special thanks to Bosshorn, the article I used can be found here: bosshorn.com/blogs/blog/what-...

I forgot which song this was, and I came in fully prepared to hear a legitimate analysis of its themes

[@Vivat_Veritas]

To be fair, it IS a legitimate analysis. Kind of.

[@princetbug]

@@Vivat_Veritas legitimate... enough!

[@VlEWMONSTER]

Its so sad to see Ralsei becoming a Mercedes Benz like this. Everyone SUSpected of him being the one to shoot that car, but it was his mother, his Earthbound that did the shooting. Very genius to use the name Johnny, since its a anagram to Asriel, who is Ralsei brother. But now he's stuck as a baby plush unable to become a Mercedes Benz, smoking and being doobie. Masterful analysis, it brought me to tears (my tears are Sonic Adventure 2)

I’ll legitimately be thinking about this for days…

Thank the TH-cam algorithm for showing me this.
I love all the different pictures you used for "Johnny".

Veritas, you have opened my eyes. Thanks to this video, I have come to the stunning realisation that my favourite game of all time, Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), is actually about Sonic the Hedgehog (1991) for the Game Gear.

[@FunnyAngeli]

[@duckman9327]

That was very serious and deep

[@arthurgomesdamata1791]

I non ironically liked the video and would love to see more lyrical analysis
