Fun fact. The person who made this animation was a guest animator in adventure time
we learn everyday 😌
So That’s why the dad looks like ice king Lmao
holy shit
So that's why this song gives me adventure time vibes...
The guitarist reminds me way too much of Magic Man
- what if he did? What if he didn’t? What if the world was made of pudding.
- that line hit me hard
oh it’s you
Huh
What if you were black or chinese?
Ugh it's you
I hate you so much
I love how the dad is telling his son to appreciate life idk why i used to be scared of this song. Now that im older I realized that the dad was just telling his son to realize hes not the center of the world and that theres creatures all over the world. I would love to have a dad like this ❤
Facts, I love this comment so much❤️

You probably found it scary because of the animation style. Just a guess
I’m pretty sure it’s because the voice sounds like a broken voice box
"It's not disgusting it's just reality" is the best argument I've ever heard
It's such a *_BAD_* argument, though!

My dad showed me this when I was very little and it shaped a huge part of my worldview and philosophy as a person. “It’s not gross, it’s just reality” still runs through my head and heart often, and I just wanted to say thank you for all of it :)

traumatizes child with furry you mean?
I like how you said *local* Gandalf; like every city has multiple old men that break into homes to teach children life lessons.
as a citizen of north america, i can confirm this happened.
As a citizen of one of the most north American states, Ohio, I can confirm this is what happens every night, unless you spray some bugspray every now and then
As a citizen of one of the most most northern states, New York, I can confirm this happens from the moment it becomes dark, till the moment it becomes bright again. There is no stopping it, only joining in.
As a citizen of North America, I can confirm this will happen in about 20 years.
Yep ever single night
Indeed
1:46 someone please satisfy my craving for this missed opportunity for a rhyme “We’re living in a world that’s full of creatures, big and small so many features”
I will and i'll make it an reality
the dads lines dont really rhyme
But then we would not see a hairy disabled veteran or a slime man melt under the sun. I'd say the missed rhyme was worth it.
@@jackalanimatronics that just makes it funny
When he said, "Daddy daddy daddy get that human!" Instead of, "get that thing!" To make it rhyme...it didn't sit right with me lol
"What if he did? What if he didn't? What if the world was made of pudding?"
Truly inspiring words.

@@papaq3810 yah that's more accurate tbh

I like how the son says he only THINKS there’s a spider, even though it’s the size of a golden retriever
That's precisely why he says that. He's not sure if it's a spider or the child of an eldritch demon.
When it first crawled out from under the kids bed, it only had 6 legs
... and then it also fits inside if a *C U P*
The spider is not actually that size, in reality its much smaller.

2:35 i like how the guitar's melody gets low when he says the "swallow your pride" as this body horror thing is on screen, its creepy but also probably my favourite line in the song
Don't you mean 2:35 ?
@@Ogfloppa2 i did mean that, thank you
That specific line has popped into my head at least once per month for the past 13 years
i love that part, especially because the pride itself is shown as this grotesque flesh thing, which highlights how ugly pride can truly be, especially if you consider it as one of the seven deadly sins
Minor plagal cadence!

“What if the world was made of pudding?”
This was the old Internet when it was about art and not money
Back when the feeling of sending something out there in the internet was intriguing. The ability to touch millions and the fact that it will be there forever and at that time were at the beginning of it (the internet)
That was our special thing back then
Like it could lve came out in 1900 or the 1800s
It captured that time perfectly n it being new and obscure so it mixed in with the time n how people were and the music so it came out weird n sometimes creepy
That's why like jack stauber, his videos are like reminiscent of old youtube
I’ve listened to this at least 30 times help

My house has a spider problem and I’m literally seeing like three spiders everyday but I’m not killing them for fear of an old man coming into my room and singing to me about becoming human
there was like 2 spiders in my room, i killed one but the other survived. i think its dead somewhere because it would starve. it was scary too, it was crawling on my fucking wall. and today, i killed a baby cockroach, and killed like 3 small bugs this week. and im so pissed, i just keep finding more bugs, dead and alive.
well spiders come to where all the bugs are so once your bug infestation is gone, the spiders will leave too!
I had spiders in my apartment but I let them live since they're free pest control.
Did you know that of the thousands of species of spiders we know of, only like thirteen can pierce your skin. Fewer than that are venomous, and even fewer are likely to live in your area.

People say how creepy and weird the dad looks when he has better morals than most people on twitter
I agree with you and all but I'd just like to point out that isn't saying much considering the average person on twitter has negative empathy and enjoys other ppl suffering
@@hellohowareyou9745 Bruh I sometimes feel like people on twitter deadass lack souls. It's honestly depressing how internet anonimity can make people so desentisized. Like do they seriously not realize that the people they harass online are actual real humans with lives, families, hopes and dreams? They have the empathy skills of a spoiled 7 year old brat who can't grasp the concept that other people do also exist and have lives just like their own.
@@qwertydavid8070 Agreed - also just to clarify, I don't think everyone who uses Twitter is bad and hopefully my comment doesn't say that, BUT with the platform that Twitter is, it's really easy for people to fall into a mob mentality.
Again, I don't think these people are inherently bad though... sorry if my comment sounded like that-
He looks like Karl Marx
True
Son: Help, I'm afraid of the spider!
Father: *It's time to debate morality.*
Bruh, what a mood that is
if democracy is even why are every 18 year old voting is it fair if educated people to only have voting power or do we all so allow uneducated people to vote? Imagine 2 different politicians imagine one as a doctor he makes you eat certain foods and makes you stop doing what you like for 2 weeks. Now the other politician is a candy shop owner he make the doctor look bad by giving only giving temporary happiness at the cost of long term affects? Is it fair?

it feels weird listening to this not sped up
I sped it up. It was too weird
@Sea Litch I think a lot of us discovered this video sped up on some other sites, I first saw it sped up around 1.5
sped up it sound really great. with a bit more distortion it actually becomes an intriguing piece of music

Wow same here. Very accurate. I wonder if it's because we're maybe familiar with the style of these older TH-cam animation videos
@Just a Guy "gives me a sense of comfort and nostalgia" - I know that feeling. Last year in summer of 2018 I watched a animated music video called Say It by n-buna and for some reason it made me feel nostalgic even though I had never seen it before.

@Pump and then the son is drawn quickly to imply that he hasn’t learned much yet
