This show has really grown, from a commentary about nihilism to a still slightly nihilistic yet heartwarming, heartbreaking and developmental human journey about flawed yet relatable characters, neither good nor evil, everyone’s just a little bit complicated I believe. This show seems to reflect it very well. Also, I think I’ve said this about a million times by now, but all of the characters that used to be voiced by Justin Roiland only kinda sound like the original voice actor, about 70-80%. I still wish Justin would come back one day, maybe get his life in order, grow a bit.
This scene had me ugly crying. As someone who is 35, whose life hasn't taken the trajectory I thought it might, whose lonely and yearns for something more. To see him go through it and come out the other side, to find meaning and love and joy again. It meant... a lot.
@diggitydoo5836 dont say that man, look even if we miss out on the life we want, which is heart breaking, to even live at all is a gift, so enjoy your time, never wish it away beacause blink and it will be gone anyways, we get one shot on this earth, so enjoy every moment u can!
Two things I don't know if everyone noticed. 1. the buildings that he draws in school are the same buildings we see at the very end. 2. The man Amber left for Fred, was the first person we see being eaten as spaghetti.
The part with the “Fred Blocks” store legit made me tear up. Being unable to achieve your dreams is soul crushing. But finding a way to channel that passion you had into a new endeavor that brings joy to others and perhaps even inspire them to try and achieve their own dreams? That’s beautiful.
I mean, you can see in the end of his memory highlights that in the end he DID design the city, you see it through the episode, it's his design from when he was a little kid
He didn't fail to achieve his dreams, he just took a different path. He couldn't hack it as an architect, so he presumably made his design goals a reality as a financier.
Bidding for contracts, setting up or buying into construction companies, hiring the architects and engineers skilled enough to make his dream creations stable enough to actually be usable... As for preexisting infrastructure, that might be a challenge unless there's a location with minimal development or a drastic priority for urban renewal. See the 1:1 replica of Paris, France that was built in China a few years ago as an example. Basically, if you can't beat them, buy them. @@ChrisJohnson-ib5fp
This scene and episode has such a great message. We often get so caught up in what we want we sometimes forget other people are human beings who live entire lives just like us.
Sonder - is the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own, populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries, and inherited craziness.
@@jacobcudmore-maupai4963yeah. Especially when Rick was talking at the end .... people just would rather keep it out of mind & out of sight .... unless .... there's truth in Human meats at fast food joints ??
@@MrKingJson There were spaghetti people, who materialize spaghetti in body after death and it is very delicious, but value of their lives were decreased. All creatures saw them as food, this clip explains that they are individuals too. It is the reason why it is very sad.
In a way, "show don't tell" actually gets _easier_ if you leave out the dialogue altogether. Telling a whole life story with key moments in the life of the protagonist is something Rick and Morty can do quite well.
Episodes like this are perfect as a cure for the “Main character syndrome”. Yes, your life is truly unique and very important. But every other human being is a whole universe in itself.
@@christopherclough559 I don't think it cures nihilism, neither does nihilism really need to be cured. Every life is unique and special but at the same time completely devoid of meaning. There's no higher purpose or inherent value to anything, you're born and then you die, if you want to put value on something or someone you can but that's something each person has to decide for themselves.
The bit about eating jam straight out of the jar was admittedly genius. It shows that even after all the events we see, he fundamentally isn't all that different from when he was a baby, and his life has just as much value now as it did then. Killing himself at his age still carries the same weight as if he did it earlier in his life, because it is precious at every moment.
Another thing is that the picnic basket at the beginning has the same diamond that he would later use for the FredBlocks showing his happiest memories when he was a child.
At the end you even see him with his wife sitting on the porch, and his wife actually dips her fingers in a jar to scoop some out and then he does the same. So either she also did this quirky little thing all along, or they were together so long/so close that she picked up the habit from him
I lost my grandmother due to a heart attack in 2008 when I was 11 years old and since then I couldn't cry no matter how much I tried to do. I've had moments and events in my life where I wished so bad that I could cry so that I would feel the relief of it. After 15 years, now entered 27 yesterday, I burst into tears like a newborn. This song made me realize that life is too short to live and it is essential to spend more time with your loved ones because they and I are not gonna be here forever. I'd like to thank everyone who composed this song and the episode of Rick and Morty because you ended my 15 years of suffering. I would not think of me crying after 15 years.
Y'all. Someone help me. This scene broke me. Been listening to this on repeat and crying for days now because it's got me thinking too much about my own life.
The jam part doesn't really hit until you see the final moment of it. He did this weirdly specific thing that is pretty much just for him, it's weird, but it's specifically a thing he has been doing as a baby, and when you see him doing it with his wife before she dies it hits different. Everyone has a little "Jam from the Jar" thing that they keep doing that doesn't bear much significance to the bigger picture, but it is specifically your weird thing. Maybe it's a mental tick, or a source of comfort, but it's yours and yours alone. Makes this almost literal nothing character feel so textured and real. This montage is absolutely genius.
I see the jars of jam as being his joy. It shows him doing it at happy moments in his life. And he got to share that joy with Amber. But it's also why he put the jar on her grave. A way of showing the greatest joy in his life was gone.
@@tomnorton4277 Based on how old they were by then, I don't think he did. I doubt it was that long before then that she passed. And he had that attitude that if he wasn't around to remember those times, then who would be?
I really like the courage of making his life complicated and not entirely wholesome/honorable. He stayed true to himself, which is a kind of integrity.
@@y.o.2478 not so. Barring the early failures in architecture. He reconnected with his high school girlfriend, who has a family. He then persuaded her to leave her family to be with him, and her husband commits suicide (tasted in the beginning of the episode). Most people would consider that deplorable, but they didn't dwell on whether it was right or wrong. It's not super deep, but it's a brave writing choice.
@@Stethacanthusyou’re my writing hero ☺️ If the people wanna make their world grey & bleak then that’s on them but true beauty is in the Eye of the beholder 😄♥️
I cried my eyes out to this, haven’t cried that much in a long time. Life is too easy to mess up, so many people have only the sad parts of this story but don’t invent legos and have a happy ending like he did
The beauty of this montage is that it's got a little slice of real life that everyone can relate to. To have hurt and been hurt. To have loved and lost. To have won, but at great cost. To have had both unclean victories and dignified defeats. This short clip really touched on all that complexity in a beautiful, tragic, and somehow still hopeful way. 10/10
@@deBriefed wouldn't go that far. Most of the things we guys pick up on are just because we have a pre-existing interest in philosophy and we're media literate. I've seen people totally miss the point of that episode in my own circle
I like how there are tons of little details that give us glimpses into the other character's lives outside of Fred's. The woman's room at 1:24 in particular has tons of stuff that gives her character outside Fred's one night stand. Lawrence too with his carpenter trophy and abdomen injury makes you realize he is ultimately more than just a guy Amber divorced.
The way I understand it is that Fred sees all this evidence of a life well lived in the nightstand (the notes with numbers from other people, the "witchery" parafernalia, the well keep letters, the photos either with friends or family, the guitar, the tickets for future travels, the clearly used makeup, etc) and he breaks; this girl that he doesn't know outside of a one night stand has interest she pursues, friends she keeps contact with, meets new people that finds her interesting enough to pursue romantically, has lived experiences he couldn't relate to even if he tried, and she seems happy with her life. Meanwhile Fred is stuck pursuing a dream he doesn't believe in anymore and is utterly miserable, and is in that moment that he realizes that he should move on, drop from college, go back to his parents home, that moment is when Fred finally internalizes that he has failed.
This song makes me think about my mom who passed last year at 47, she paved her own road, strongest woman I ever knew and the only woman I’ve ever feared
You know, I don’t know if anyone else felt this way, but after seeing this guy’s whole life flash before his eyes before his death just gives me even more of an appreciation for life and that I should be living it for as long as I can so I don’t miss out on the best parts of it.
iv lost a lot of people to suicide and I in the end can agree. "it was the complexity of life, Life itself is wrong so death is right...but none of us can live with it it so we live..." I'm crying for my friends above... Pray for those who have lost someone....
This interpretation of "Live Forever By Oasis" is the best i've ever heard so far. It fits perfectly with the scene and hits you from the place you expect the least.
In your mind it is it doesn't hold a candle to the Original Oasis version. It's an Oasis song and Oasis were tgd biggest band in the world between 94-97
Lyrics : Maybe, I don't really wanna know How your garden grows 'Cause I just wanna fly Lately, did you ever feel the pain In the morning rain As it soaks you to the bone?

I don’t know why I keep coming back to this, it’s so incredibly sad but at the same time it’s so emotionally gratifying watching the character go through life’s hardships and triumph. In a way it feels like I’m watching myself and realising that there is still plenty of things I’ve yet to experience, and sure there will be good times but there will also be bad times as well. Kind of humbling in a way.
@@user-em6ie2be7xYeah, 2:22 looks like they are really grown up. And btw, her ex-husband later offed himself, because he couldn't take the divorce. Live with it
For some reason this is beautiful and terrifying at the same time. It gives you the perspective of how fast your life can fly by which is terrifying, but also shows the beauty of that life, the ups and downs which makes life incredibly beautiful.
This is what I love Rick and Morty for. The writers know how to weave great storytelling and snarky jokes in a way that all flows naturally and do that all while condensing it into 20 minute episodes
Interpretation of his life: 0:20 : Fred Bunks is born to two loving parents, Edna & Earl. Fred spends his early years playing with building toys. 0:25 : In his early years, develops a taste for strawberry jam. 0:30 : In elementary school, Fred is reprimanded by a strict teacher for not paying attention in class because he is drawing architectural city buildings. This is also when he is introduced to Amber Maps, and classmate Laurence H. 0:35 : Fred is in high school. He starts a relationship with Amber. 0:45 : Fred invited Amber over to see his room, which is full of his interests and projects with architecture. 0:50 : Amber and Fred graduate high school together as sweethearts. Amber dyes her hair pink. Amber cries as Fred leaves for college, leaving her behind. 0:57 : Fred unpacks at his new room, Unboxing his belongings from home, including his projects and a photo of Amber from high school. His bed has Laurence's initials carved into it, as well as Amber's with a heart carved below it. 1:02 : Fred pursues a higher education in college chasing his dream of architecture he had since 0:30 in elementary school. 1:09 : Fred contacts amber long distance while in college. Their relationship is turbulent. Fred still enjoys the simple comfort of strawberry jam. 1:16 : Fred is failing in college, his dream is slipping through his fingers. He starts to lose control of his life and drift. 1:22 : Fred tries new experiences while drifting, has a sexual experience with an alternative new age girl named Sabina Morter he picks up at a bar, he wakes up at her house and questions what he's doing. 1:30 : Fred calls Amber and tells her about his life and sexual experience with another girl. It breaks her heart. He drives back home from college to see Amber in person, she rejects him. 1:42 : After some years, Fred comes home to see his parents, who eventually pass away. 1:47 : Fred goes back through some possessions from his earlier life, which rekindle his passion for architecture, which seem to fail again. 1:57 : Fred tries a new approach and instead makes architecture inspired toy blocks instead, which are possibly inspired by the diamond picnic basket seen in 0:25 when he first had strawberry jam. 2:03 : His idea is pitched to a shark tank style group of investors who greenlight his idea, which becomes a huge success. 2:13 : Fred becomes largely successful and now lives in a mansion likely of his own design as seen on the wall in 0:46 when he first showed Amber his room. He rediscovers Amber and Sabina again on social media but chooses only to message Amber. 2:18 : Fred and Amber get together to catch up. Amber shows him that she has married Laurence H and they currently have two children together. Laurence is wearing a blue shirt and Amber a green shirt just as when they were all in elementary school back in 0:30 2:25 : Fred and Amber fall back in love and elope. Amber breaks the news to her husband Laurence, which crushes Laurence emotionally. 2:35 : Amber divorces Laurence to be with Fred which causes Laurence's suicide and the smith family consumes his corpse. 2:40 : Amber and Fred stay together, Fred shares the simple pleasure of strawberry jam with Amber, and they enjoy it together. 2:47 : Fred outlives Amber, he has another taste of strawberry jam in her memory, and puts it on her tombstone as a tribute. He also had her tombstone made with a strawberry on it. As fred looks off at the city, it is the same city that fred first saw as a child when he had his first jar of strawberry jam. at 0:25 . These are also the same buildings that fred drew in elementary school when he first met Amber. The strawberry jam also marks the beginning of his first life experiences and the last of them, and he shared them. When you watch again with the details, i can't help but wonder if some real life experiences and stories from the artists went into this animation itself, to give it that much complexity and thought.
This scene was honestly pretty sad, it shows how hard and imperfect life can be and how some ambitions can never be achieved and dreams can be shattered. I think we all relate to this scene in our own way.
I wish every kid sad enough to contemplate the end would watch this and really soak it in. It's insane to look back on life in your late 30's and early 40's and see how people, places, and things come and go and how some even come back again. Places you thought you'd never go back to, people you thought you'd never see again. Chances to fly, chances to burn. Just a continuum of constantly opening and closing windows of opportunity that come when you least expect them and even more so when you're least prepared. We're all doing the best with what we've got. It ain't over til it's over.
I just love what they do with this mute/only music storytelling. Honestly it's amazing it's only 3 minutes and half because when I watched it for the first time it really felt like I lived this guy whole life
Back in 2010's there was this trend of youtubers that were starting to get famous (10k subscribers) to do a "draw my life" videos. If you like this Scene, You'll enjoy those videos.
@@emilior934 I know what a draw my life is lol, I'm not that young But that had youtubers talking iver the drawings, this is like storytelling with no dialogue anf it hits so hard
Bro, I am telling this is more than just a show. I have been watching Rick&Morty since season 1, and it helped me through a lot. I LIVE FOR SCENES LIKE THIS
This scene is very powerful, but arguably what was more powerful and relative in the world we live in, was the fact that when they realised suicide was profitable, they changed their world to make it as bleak as it could be so more suicides would occur. It’s scary and heartbreaking to know that all the major governments around the world are more interested in money and power than the wellbeing of humankind
The part when he woke up next to a chick he slept with but wasn't in love with and looked in the mirror as if to say: " Is this who i am?" really hit home
Tears came thick and fast at 2:40 when Kotomi went falsetto and the lyrics "Maybe you're the same as me" matched up perfectly with Amber eating jam out of the jar like Fred. There are so many good messages in this sequence but I love that one of them is that you don't necessarily have to be academically gifted to succeed. The Fredblox either helped Fred articulate his architectural ideas or inspired someone else to become an architect that fulfilled his vision because, as others have pointed out, those skyscrapers at the end are the same as the ones he was doodling.
This song actually made me tear up. Rick and Morty have a way of touching depression just right. So I have been battling this for years and its crazy how much this song encapsulates how I feel about it. Its not just the song either, but the the screen play to go with. The loss of love and being left alone. Going on simply in spite, just all of it. This entire section of this episode was great. I think the key thing here is as a depressed person, we kind of wish to ourselves sometimes that we could show people life through our eyes and let them feel what we felt and maybe then they would understand. That's the paradox of it all. You can talk till your blue in the face but people will never really understand your pain like you do inside. So in a way, your imprisoned by it. I think this is why as we get old, we become more and more accepting of death. God speed ladies and gentlemen, whatever battles you face, I hope you never let them win.
This is my favorite oasis song but this version just brought me to tears “Life itself is wrong. And that means death is right. But you can't side with that. So you live.”
Yeah I saw this randomly watching eps with a mate, just after we lost a third to the whole episodes premise. Too soon, too much and too relevant. Beautiful song, great ep but holy man. It literally brings me to tears everytime now, without fail.
That part makes me cry so bad. I don't know why. Makes me hate how short our lives are. That is the most human part and touching moment I've ever seen on any show.
I like how things also come full circle in that the guy who got divorced was the same guy who the Smith’s were eating at the start of the episode and Rick and Morty attended the funeral of. Same hair and grown up kids.
@@PikachuTheAnimator That doesn't really work, though. Looks like Fred and Amber had at least 20 years together, judging from how much she visibly ages between the time she shows the divorce decree and the moment she sits on the porch with Fred eating jam. The time between Rick and Morty attending the funeral of Amber's first husband, Lawrence, and Fred's suicide can't be more than a few months, just enough for Fred's entire world to descend into spaghetti-fueled madness. The photo at Lawrence's funeral DOES show him older than he was in the flashback, hearing Amber tell him about her and Fred (and, oddly, when he's at the door, he appears to have a bandage across his abdomen, which as best I can tell is unexplained, but there's a "Carpenter of the Year" sign in the background so maybe it was work-related), but if he doesn't appear to have aged quite as much as Amber and Fred did, the simplest explanation is that at Lawrence's funeral, they just used a photograph of him that had been taken a few years earlier. That's not unusual - at my father's memorial, we used a photograph of him that had been taken at least 15 years before his death.
The song resonates with me. I’ve struggled with addiction and suicide and not being the person I want to be and I’m forever grateful for this song for reminding me I’m not alone.
You're definitely not alone. You got this, never give in. Hope you are doing better/will be doing better soon. You'll become the person you want to be, if you just work hard and put in the effort. I know I'm a random stranger on the internet, but I've been in the same position as you. I've hit rock bottom to the point where I've been on the brink of homelessness but I clawed out of this hole that I dug myself in and I pulled myself back to having a decent life finally. If I can do it, you can too. I believe in you. It will get better.
@@Cazammafcomments like these make me cry happy tears, i love them because it shows even if you're struggling, some random person is there to support you
The most meaningful scene I've ever watched in my life. I'm not easily moved by things I watch, especially not by drama nonsense. I haven't been able to shake off the impact of a 3-minute video for a week now. Life comes and goes; there's no benefit in dwelling on the past. Despite getting caught up in the hustle of daily life we shouln’t forget: every life is precious - especially our own.
I've heard so many songs be turned into the sad acoustic guitar version, or the spooky piano version in the past 10 years. I never thought i'd hear LIVE FOREVER (my favorite song) by OASIS get this treatment, and I never thought it would be in a Rick and Morty clip that would make sad, and I definitely didn't think i'd like it so much. But here we are. Pass the jam.
I've had this song stuck in my head for the past few days. Makes me tear up everytime I see it😢 Even after all the ups and downs, everything was still okay. Life is complex.
@@jordanlaplante1131 YEA your right. Women are more likely to like you beacuse of your looks or how successful you are, not because of who you are. In most cases.
Crying. I want to go back and get my 11 years of mistakes erased. I let fear consume every breath and I stayed so inert isolated…no one cares, sorry. First TH-cam comment ever 😅
First time watching this n I was crying uncontrollably.. such perfect human emotions and the song hits. Absolutely golden media.. bravo to the team who created this masterpiece
wdym bro, gen z here and, even though i’m and oasis fan, i think the biggest part of our generation knows at least wonderwall (one of oasis’ worst songs tho xd)
I love the detail that the husband Amber abandons is the one guy whose obituary Rick and Morty are attending. Through the short, we only see the ups and downs of Fred, and while it’s heartwarming that Amber and Fred end up together at the end, through the husband, the show subtly reminds us that we’re not alone in this world, and that maybe we live our happy lives in expense of other people’s happy lives, (the couple reconnecting comes at the expense of the husband’s depression and suicide). Or it could just be Rick and Morty being edgy again. This show doesn’t know what it wants to be sometimes. Def one of the highest moments of the show tho for me.
I actually prefer this version of "Live Forever" over the original. Also, Ian Cardoni is getting even better as Rick. He was really great throughout this episode especially during the "complexity of life" speech. Morty's voice needs a lot more work though.
A surprisingly sad and deep moment in an episode with a seemingly silly premise. Reminds us that every person who had ever died once had lived very different lives from each other, with their own dreams, passions, feelings, hope, and fears. I almost cried during this scene.
Rik n morty is something special. I know we lost the main actor but this just shows this series was never about him anyway. It's the amazing writers this show has. This just showed why this show is amazing it's funny, it's supremely clever and inventive, it doesn't shy away from controversial subject matter, it's brave , it's bold, it's unpredictable, at times truly emotional and can make you cry. In a word it's human and I love it ❤
this is how everyone should go. they get a recap on every single moment of their lives, see what went wrong, or what went right. and pass on knowing what kind of lives they led
The scene where both his parents pass away hits so hard. I was raised by my grandparents and lost them both in the last 3 years. I remember how both of them loved having me back anytime I visited home. I felt like a kid everytime in their presence. Now their home is an empty space for me.
I feel you buddy, grief is hard to live with and never truly goes away. I've found it easier focusing on memories rather than the loss. Lost my Grandad 3 months ago and he was practically my dad. Lost my mum to suicide shortly after my 1st son was born 2 years ago. Hope things get easier for you, you loved them and cherish what moments you had I'm certain they wouldn't want you to dwell just like in my case.
I come back to this video every few months because i relate to it a lot I ditched two groups of friends to do my dream of video game design and college and university only for it all to collapse when covid started ending with a 2:2. I then had to move back with my dad and had the exact same frustration as him using the construx with my game dev tools. I am now moved out working as a pharmacy assistant trying to find my "fredblox" Cry every time i watch it.
This scene had me choking up. I relate to it because I have a lot of vivid happy memories from childhood and I also went to college and have it not work out, then become depressed and start drinking like Fred did. I’ve also never had a girlfriend or been in love and I’m in my 30’s so the parts with Amber made me sad because I never had any of that in my life and a lot of times feel like I never will at this point.
@@hoodedwizard4695 sadly I don’t believe that I will. Most women aren’t interested in dating a man in his 30’s with no dating or relationship experience. They expect you to have that by this age and feel like men my age without it will have to be taught by them how to even be in a relationship and they fear that we will become super clingy as well since she’s his first at such a late age, so they opt to just date someone else with an average level of experience instead. I also don’t think love in something that isn’t in human form is a viable substitute either, we’re biologically programmed to want it in human form.
@@curtis4170 As with lots of things, we often make things a bigger deal to ourselves than they are to others. I know it's easier said than done, but try to focus on the positive things in your life, rather than dwell on the negatives, or the "missed." I'm sure there are things you've done in your life that many of us have missed in our 20s being in less than happy relationships. From my experience, relationship experience is not something that is high up on peoples' lists of priorities when they're looking for a partner. If there's anything to take away, is how this character had a passion in his life, for architecture in this particular case. I hope you find the love you're looking for.
I like how nobody in this is perfect or good, it’s just people doing things. He cheats and fails at his dream, she leaves her husband and the father of her children. He changes his goals but works towards those new goals. Good depiction of life just being life.
Could mean she's stepped put on him in the past and he's gotten angry and gotten beaten up. So now he wasn't even going to try fighting for her anymore.
Make people see the sad story of the character, make them like him, then make then watch him at his last moments, then make them watch Rick open his corpse open and serve his insides to his Grandson. Truly a master piece.

I JUST WATCHED THIS EPISODE WHILE HAVING DINNER AND ENDED UP CRYING, THINKING ABOUT HOW MUCH I MISS MY FAMILY AND HOW BADLY I WANT TO HUG THEM. I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING. WITH THE SONG AND A PERFECT OASIS COVER IN THE BACKGROUND. THIS IS CINEMA. I DIDN'T EXPECT A SCENE LIKE THIS FROM RICK AND MORTY. GOD, I LOVE RICK AND MORTY. NOW I'LL BE LISTENING TO THIS SONG ALL WEEK.
“It’s not the death, it’s the complexity of life.” That phrase burned me inside
It cuts so deep down to the bone😢
Soaks you to the bone
That is what holds us here.

Scenes like this, is why I come back to every new episode of Rick and Morty. Rick and Morty at its best makes the characters feel very human
I’d still eat the spaghetti tho
@@vladimirrashkovsky6274I mean if it’s that good, who’s to judge?
I would have still eaten the pasta though ... XD
This show has really grown, from a commentary about nihilism to a still slightly nihilistic yet heartwarming, heartbreaking and developmental human journey about flawed yet relatable characters, neither good nor evil, everyone’s just a little bit complicated I believe. This show seems to reflect it very well.
Also, I think I’ve said this about a million times by now, but all of the characters that used to be voiced by Justin Roiland only kinda sound like the original voice actor, about 70-80%. I still wish Justin would come back one day, maybe get his life in order, grow a bit.

I love that the parents are happy when he moves back in. They really were good people.
That part hit me hard got me thinking of my parents

I never thought a Rick and Morty video about someone dying to become spaghetti would slightly increase my empathy.
não alguém que quis morreu, mais alguém que viveu e morreu porque viveu !!!
This scene had me ugly crying. As someone who is 35, whose life hasn't taken the trajectory I thought it might, whose lonely and yearns for something more.
To see him go through it and come out the other side, to find meaning and love and joy again. It meant... a lot.
@diggitydoo5836 dont say that man, look even if we miss out on the life we want, which is heart breaking, to even live at all is a gift, so enjoy your time, never wish it away beacause blink and it will be gone anyways, we get one shot on this earth, so enjoy every moment u can!
much love to you
I’m 41 and my marriage is ending and I’m starting over, and this scene hit me the same
This actually makes me cry, after going through so much and only be 28 everything about this makes me cry and the song makes it worse
@@mrmoonlight9865 you know, I kinda feel the same way right now, and I'm only 25
Two things I don't know if everyone noticed. 1. the buildings that he draws in school are the same buildings we see at the very end. 2. The man Amber left for Fred, was the first person we see being eaten as spaghetti.
I noticed the first one but dude good spot on the second
I thought that guy looked familiar.
YES!
Poor guy. He won carpenter of the year!
Why does he have bandages around his torso though?
I noticed he married the girl he cheated on his high school sweet heart with too.
🤯🤯🤯
The part with the “Fred Blocks” store legit made me tear up.
Being unable to achieve your dreams is soul crushing. But finding a way to channel that passion you had into a new endeavor that brings joy to others and perhaps even inspire them to try and achieve their own dreams? That’s beautiful.
I mean, you can see in the end of his memory highlights that in the end he DID design the city, you see it through the episode, it's his design from when he was a little kid
He didn't fail to achieve his dreams, he just took a different path. He couldn't hack it as an architect, so he presumably made his design goals a reality as a financier.
I like the fact Fred actually created his World's lego blocks.
We can see he plays with those sticks and cogs until he gets angry and makes them.
@@DGas-rg1pk
How does that work though, generally curious like as a financier how was he able to construct a city scape.
Bidding for contracts, setting up or buying into construction companies, hiring the architects and engineers skilled enough to make his dream creations stable enough to actually be usable... As for preexisting infrastructure, that might be a challenge unless there's a location with minimal development or a drastic priority for urban renewal. See the 1:1 replica of Paris, France that was built in China a few years ago as an example.
Basically, if you can't beat them, buy them. @@ChrisJohnson-ib5fp
This scene and episode has such a great message. We often get so caught up in what we want we sometimes forget other people are human beings who live entire lives just like us.
So true.
And we often end up eating them
Sonder - is the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own, populated with their own ambitions, friends, routines, worries, and inherited craziness.
The point of this entire episode is the ethical dilemmas of eating animals.
@@jacobcudmore-maupai4963yeah. Especially when Rick was talking at the end .... people just would rather keep it out of mind & out of sight .... unless .... there's truth in Human meats at fast food joints ??
I didn't expect an existential crisis from the spaghetti episode.
I know!!!! I'm sitting here crying and listening to the song!!!!
Mate, it came out of nowhere and hit me really hard 😂
Please explain this scene. I don't get why it's sad.
@@MrKingJson There were spaghetti people, who materialize spaghetti in body after death and it is very delicious, but value of their lives were decreased. All creatures saw them as food, this clip explains that they are individuals too. It is the reason why it is very sad.
@@johnpotie1285 Oh, is that it?
This arrangement and vocal on this song deserve mentioning. What a beautiful version.
This is a rare example of master level story telling. No dialogue too. Legendary.
Choosing Live Forever too. Amazing
In a way, "show don't tell" actually gets _easier_ if you leave out the dialogue altogether.
Telling a whole life story with key moments in the life of the protagonist is something Rick and Morty can do quite well.
The only other one I can think of is UP
@@Official_GoldVaderGendy Tartokovsky’s work is a class on show don’t tell in itself.
Samurai Jack and Primal both come to mind.
That song was perfect to convey the emotion that Rick wanted everyone to feel. Amazing.
They did this in the Vat of Acid Episode too
Episodes like this are perfect as a cure for the “Main character syndrome”.
Yes, your life is truly unique and very important. But every other human being is a whole universe in itself.
It's like an antidote to nihilism, for me at least.
@@christopherclough559 I don't think it cures nihilism, neither does nihilism really need to be cured. Every life is unique and special but at the same time completely devoid of meaning. There's no higher purpose or inherent value to anything, you're born and then you die, if you want to put value on something or someone you can but that's something each person has to decide for themselves.
@@tomfoolery7797that's why I said "for me"
"Self Awareness 100"
Sonder
The bit about eating jam straight out of the jar was admittedly genius. It shows that even after all the events we see, he fundamentally isn't all that different from when he was a baby, and his life has just as much value now as it did then. Killing himself at his age still carries the same weight as if he did it earlier in his life, because it is precious at every moment.
This should be on a suicide prevention ad
Another thing is that the picnic basket at the beginning has the same diamond that he would later use for the FredBlocks showing his happiest memories when he was a child.
Excellent comment
What a beautiful comment
At the end you even see him with his wife sitting on the porch, and his wife actually dips her fingers in a jar to scoop some out and then he does the same. So either she also did this quirky little thing all along, or they were together so long/so close that she picked up the habit from him
I lost my grandmother due to a heart attack in 2008 when I was 11 years old and since then I couldn't cry no matter how much I tried to do. I've had moments and events in my life where I wished so bad that I could cry so that I would feel the relief of it. After 15 years, now entered 27 yesterday, I burst into tears like a newborn. This song made me realize that life is too short to live and it is essential to spend more time with your loved ones because they and I are not gonna be here forever. I'd like to thank everyone who composed this song and the episode of Rick and Morty because you ended my 15 years of suffering. I would not think of me crying after 15 years.
That's wild
Being strong for too long can have that effect.🧐
You might check out the music video for the Elvis Costello song, 'Veronica'.
That's what usually Noel Gallagher's songs do.. listen to oasis
I'm really happy for you even if you are a complete and total stranger. Good for you man
Y'all. Someone help me. This scene broke me. Been listening to this on repeat and crying for days now because it's got me thinking too much about my own life.
Same here man, just live it out moment by moment. Appreciate everything and never take this life for granted
That means you know what to do brother! Start living life, you only live once. Talk to me any day.
This is your bains way of telling you "message received" Kudos!
Wherever your are, you're loved, brother. Live simply, live unsimply, stay true to yourself, go after what you want, embrace life. There's only one
Oasis cover! Tickets out this Saturday, haven’t played together since 1999!
The jam part doesn't really hit until you see the final moment of it. He did this weirdly specific thing that is pretty much just for him, it's weird, but it's specifically a thing he has been doing as a baby, and when you see him doing it with his wife before she dies it hits different.
Everyone has a little "Jam from the Jar" thing that they keep doing that doesn't bear much significance to the bigger picture, but it is specifically your weird thing. Maybe it's a mental tick, or a source of comfort, but it's yours and yours alone. Makes this almost literal nothing character feel so textured and real. This montage is absolutely genius.
I see the jars of jam as being his joy. It shows him doing it at happy moments in his life. And he got to share that joy with Amber. But it's also why he put the jar on her grave. A way of showing the greatest joy in his life was gone.
@@Thorgonator Yes.
are you chat gpt?
@@Thorgonator That's heart wrenching. I wonder if he ever ate jam again after that. With Amber gone, maybe he just couldn't bring himself to do it.
@@tomnorton4277 Based on how old they were by then, I don't think he did. I doubt it was that long before then that she passed. And he had that attitude that if he wasn't around to remember those times, then who would be?
I really like the courage of making his life complicated and not entirely wholesome/honorable. He stayed true to himself, which is a kind of integrity.
he is burning his security number
this dude its taking fred of the grid
"living with pain is integrity"
How was it complicated? Super basic love story + some cliche success story. This is obviously parody and you think it's deep lmao.
@@y.o.2478 not so. Barring the early failures in architecture. He reconnected with his high school girlfriend, who has a family. He then persuaded her to leave her family to be with him, and her husband commits suicide (tasted in the beginning of the episode). Most people would consider that deplorable, but they didn't dwell on whether it was right or wrong.
It's not super deep, but it's a brave writing choice.
@@Stethacanthusyou’re my writing hero ☺️
If the people wanna make their world grey & bleak then that’s on them but true beauty is in the Eye of the beholder 😄♥️
I actually cried a little, didn't expect this out of Rick & Morty
This was an episode that could have easily gone off the rails with its distastefulness, but they made it work.
Yep, strange
I cried my eyes out to this, haven’t cried that much in a long time. Life is too easy to mess up, so many people have only the sad parts of this story but don’t invent legos and have a happy ending like he did
Have you never seen before season 4?
@@MacenW I don't remember a lot abt it but yeah I've watched a good bit of the show, I'm not caught up tho I kinda lost interest after awhile
I still can’t stop coming back to this
Me too it’s an beautiful combination of music animation and a sum up of human sorry spaghetti human life
The beauty of this montage is that it's got a little slice of real life that everyone can relate to. To have hurt and been hurt. To have loved and lost. To have won, but at great cost. To have had both unclean victories and dignified defeats. This short clip really touched on all that complexity in a beautiful, tragic, and somehow still hopeful way. 10/10
well said
"Cells consume, Morty. Life itself is wrong. And that means death is right. But you can't side with that, so you live even when it means eating"

The show is a better intro to philosophy than most universities.
@@deBriefed wouldn't go that far. Most of the things we guys pick up on are just because we have a pre-existing interest in philosophy and we're media literate. I've seen people totally miss the point of that episode in my own circle
@@pppie8509 That's a fair point, but I doubt reading Nietzsche directly would solve the issue.
Or just dont eat people spagetti?
I like how there are tons of little details that give us glimpses into the other character's lives outside of Fred's. The woman's room at 1:24 in particular has tons of stuff that gives her character outside Fred's one night stand. Lawrence too with his carpenter trophy and abdomen injury makes you realize he is ultimately more than just a guy Amber divorced.
Lawrence is also the man they were eating in the opening scene, meaning he offed himself too
The way I understand it is that Fred sees all this evidence of a life well lived in the nightstand (the notes with numbers from other people, the "witchery" parafernalia, the well keep letters, the photos either with friends or family, the guitar, the tickets for future travels, the clearly used makeup, etc) and he breaks; this girl that he doesn't know outside of a one night stand has interest she pursues, friends she keeps contact with, meets new people that finds her interesting enough to pursue romantically, has lived experiences he couldn't relate to even if he tried, and she seems happy with her life. Meanwhile Fred is stuck pursuing a dream he doesn't believe in anymore and is utterly miserable, and is in that moment that he realizes that he should move on, drop from college, go back to his parents home, that moment is when Fred finally internalizes that he has failed.
This was one of the most well done scenes in the entire series, kudos to everyone involved in making it.
This song makes me think about my mom who passed last year at 47, she paved her own road, strongest woman I ever knew and the only woman I’ve ever feared
It’s a cover of an Oasis song before they got famous with Wonderwall
@@markgarcia8253 no song made oasis famous . They all did .. wonderwall 😂 just listen to them all then come back yank
I've never seen Rick and Morty before. i just randomly click in because its Live Forever. and I just crying watching the man's life.
Yeah the context is that in their world people's innards turns into spaghetti when they commit suicide
Watch the series, there are deep messages
You know, I don’t know if anyone else felt this way, but after seeing this guy’s whole life flash before his eyes before his death just gives me even more of an appreciation for life and that I should be living it for as long as I can so I don’t miss out on the best parts of it.
I feel more of an appreciation for humanity, when I watch it, it helps the nihilistic part of me and shows me life does have some meaning.
The best part is sharing it with others. Sadly, that is the antithesis of profit, and the noose around those who have been flashed.
He must have been delicous
Yes, me too. And i think, in our Life, the important is not what you do, but with who...
Memento Mori.
Kotomi never fails to deliver the perfect Rick and Morty soundtrack
It’s an oasis song just so you know. Such a gorgeous song
@@futurereflections4097everything off of Definitely Maybe is gorgeous
@@futurereflections4097 oh I know, but Kotomi did this version. Very beautiful song indeed!!
The version is almost the same of the acoustic one of it played by Oasis itself (which I still rather than Kotomi's)
Its a good song either way you listen to it. Stop with the Oasis elitism. It's a cover that fit the tone of the scene.
The snippet of him moving back home, spliced with his parents graves broke me 😢
iv lost a lot of people to suicide and I in the end can agree. "it was the complexity of life, Life itself is wrong so death is right...but none of us can live with it it so we live..."
I'm crying for my friends above... Pray for those who have lost someone....

It's the slight turn while driving on the bridge that gets me
ok so I didn't misimagine that
Nice catch
This interpretation of "Live Forever By Oasis" is the best i've ever heard so far. It fits perfectly with the scene and hits you from the place you expect the least.
Coulda done with a guitar solo mate
One of my fave songs and bands, annoyed me that nobody knows it’s a cover.
Genuine thanks for reminding me this an Oasis song.
The high flying bird version with just Noel singing is also very good
In your mind it is it doesn't hold a candle to the Original Oasis version. It's an Oasis song and Oasis were tgd biggest band in the world between 94-97
The slight swerve as he's driving home is such a brilliant touch

Maybe, I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly

Maybe I just wanna breathe
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever
I said maybe, I don't really want to know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks you to the bone?
Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
Now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever
Maybe, I don't really want to know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly
Lately, did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks you to the bone?
Maybe I just wanna fly
Wanna live, I don't wanna die
Maybe I just wanna breathe
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see

This is easily the best scene in the entire show, you can’t change my mind
I don’t know why I keep coming back to this, it’s so incredibly sad but at the same time it’s so emotionally gratifying watching the character go through life’s hardships and triumph. In a way it feels like I’m watching myself and realising that there is still plenty of things I’ve yet to experience, and sure there will be good times but there will also be bad times as well. Kind of humbling in a way.
Seeing Fred Live his life to the fullest was satisfying. He got to live his dream & marry the girl of his Dreams.

This is what I love Rick and Morty for. The writers know how to weave great storytelling and snarky jokes in a way that all flows naturally and do that all while condensing it into 20 minute episodes
The subtle swerve he makes in the car at 1:35 always gets me. He was thinking of doing something awful in that one tiny moment 😢
Interpretation of his life:
0:20 : Fred Bunks is born to two loving parents, Edna & Earl. Fred spends his early years playing with building toys.
0:25 : In his early years, develops a taste for strawberry jam.
0:30 : In elementary school, Fred is reprimanded by a strict teacher for not paying attention in class because he is drawing architectural city buildings. This is also when he is introduced to Amber Maps, and classmate Laurence H.
0:35 : Fred is in high school. He starts a relationship with Amber.
0:45 : Fred invited Amber over to see his room, which is full of his interests and projects with architecture.
0:50 : Amber and Fred graduate high school together as sweethearts. Amber dyes her hair pink. Amber cries as Fred leaves for college, leaving her behind.
0:57 : Fred unpacks at his new room, Unboxing his belongings from home, including his projects and a photo of Amber from high school. His bed has Laurence's initials carved into it, as well as Amber's with a heart carved below it.
1:02 : Fred pursues a higher education in college chasing his dream of architecture he had since 0:30 in elementary school.
1:09 : Fred contacts amber long distance while in college. Their relationship is turbulent. Fred still enjoys the simple comfort of strawberry jam.
1:16 : Fred is failing in college, his dream is slipping through his fingers. He starts to lose control of his life and drift.
1:22 : Fred tries new experiences while drifting, has a sexual experience with an alternative new age girl named Sabina Morter he picks up at a bar, he wakes up at her house and questions what he's doing.
1:30 : Fred calls Amber and tells her about his life and sexual experience with another girl. It breaks her heart. He drives back home from college to see Amber in person, she rejects him.
1:42 : After some years, Fred comes home to see his parents, who eventually pass away.
1:47 : Fred goes back through some possessions from his earlier life, which rekindle his passion for architecture, which seem to fail again.
1:57 : Fred tries a new approach and instead makes architecture inspired toy blocks instead, which are possibly inspired by the diamond picnic basket seen in 0:25 when he first had strawberry jam.
2:03 : His idea is pitched to a shark tank style group of investors who greenlight his idea, which becomes a huge success.
2:13 : Fred becomes largely successful and now lives in a mansion likely of his own design as seen on the wall in 0:46 when he first showed Amber his room. He rediscovers Amber and Sabina again on social media but chooses only to message Amber.
2:18 : Fred and Amber get together to catch up. Amber shows him that she has married Laurence H and they currently have two children together. Laurence is wearing a blue shirt and Amber a green shirt just as when they were all in elementary school back in 0:30
2:25 : Fred and Amber fall back in love and elope. Amber breaks the news to her husband Laurence, which crushes Laurence emotionally.
2:35 : Amber divorces Laurence to be with Fred which causes Laurence's suicide and the smith family consumes his corpse.
2:40 : Amber and Fred stay together, Fred shares the simple pleasure of strawberry jam with Amber, and they enjoy it together.
2:47 : Fred outlives Amber, he has another taste of strawberry jam in her memory, and puts it on her tombstone as a tribute. He also had her tombstone made with a strawberry on it.
As fred looks off at the city, it is the same city that fred first saw as a child when he had his first jar of strawberry jam. at 0:25 . These are also the same buildings that fred drew in elementary school when he first met Amber. The strawberry jam also marks the beginning of his first life experiences and the last of them, and he shared them.
When you watch again with the details, i can't help but wonder if some real life experiences and stories from the artists went into this animation itself, to give it that much complexity and thought.
You forgot saving the world world.
That’s awesome man
Thanks a lot for breaking this scene down. I didn’t quite understand it.
I totally understand now that you've put this perfectly together. I had a little bit twisted. This should be number one at the top.
The writer's still got it! What a beautiful sequence.
This scene was honestly pretty sad, it shows how hard and imperfect life can be and how some ambitions can never be achieved and dreams can be shattered. I think we all relate to this scene in our own way.
But it also shows how can you bring dreams to life with your passions, resilience and hard working
@@adoo765Exactly, if you have the sufficient info to get the answer, everything is okay.
@@adoo765
Sometimes your goals and dreams will never be reached....
But you may find that you end up really close!
Based off the childhood drawing he did and the buildings in the final shot I think he did eventually achieve his dream.
I wish every kid sad enough to contemplate the end would watch this and really soak it in. It's insane to look back on life in your late 30's and early 40's and see how people, places, and things come and go and how some even come back again. Places you thought you'd never go back to, people you thought you'd never see again. Chances to fly, chances to burn. Just a continuum of constantly opening and closing windows of opportunity that come when you least expect them and even more so when you're least prepared. We're all doing the best with what we've got. It ain't over til it's over.
Most beautiful Rick and Morty scene in years
No other show comes even remotely close to the emotional roller-coaster that is some Rick & Morty episodes.
Bon appetit!
id argue some futerama episodes get close
View from Halfway down in Bojack Horseman
Futurama has alot of way more emotional episodes, although Rick and morty still does have some great ones
i agree with everyone.
Dude, bojack by far. Also futurama
Never thought Rick and morty would hit my heart this way. Mann!!
I just love what they do with this mute/only music storytelling. Honestly it's amazing it's only 3 minutes and half because when I watched it for the first time it really felt like I lived this guy whole life
Back in 2010's there was this trend of youtubers that were starting to get famous (10k subscribers) to do a "draw my life" videos.

Bro, I am telling this is more than just a show. I have been watching Rick&Morty since season 1, and it helped me through a lot. I LIVE FOR SCENES LIKE THIS
This scene is very powerful, but arguably what was more powerful and relative in the world we live in, was the fact that when they realised suicide was profitable, they changed their world to make it as bleak as it could be so more suicides would occur. It’s scary and heartbreaking to know that all the major governments around the world are more interested in money and power than the wellbeing of humankind

@@ThanosDestroyeryearsagomaybe, but Rick and morty wasn’t actually bad until this season
This was the best episode of Rick and Morty ever made. It combined the absurdity of life, meaning, happiness and culture together.
Tears came thick and fast at 2:40 when Kotomi went falsetto and the lyrics "Maybe you're the same as me" matched up perfectly with Amber eating jam out of the jar like Fred.
There are so many good messages in this sequence but I love that one of them is that you don't necessarily have to be academically gifted to succeed. The Fredblox either helped Fred articulate his architectural ideas or inspired someone else to become an architect that fulfilled his vision because, as others have pointed out, those skyscrapers at the end are the same as the ones he was doodling.
utterly beautiful moment, this season is being overcritiziced
No it’s just genuinely bad. The show should have been cancelled

Soul destroying and pure perfection. 10/10
This clip hits so deep. Love it they still doing like these in some seasons.
This song actually made me tear up. Rick and Morty have a way of touching depression just right.
So I have been battling this for years and its crazy how much this song encapsulates how I feel about it. Its not just the song either, but the the screen play to go with. The loss of love and being left alone. Going on simply in spite, just all of it. This entire section of this episode was great.
I think the key thing here is as a depressed person, we kind of wish to ourselves sometimes that we could show people life through our eyes and let them feel what we felt and maybe then they would understand. That's the paradox of it all. You can talk till your blue in the face but people will never really understand your pain like you do inside. So in a way, your imprisoned by it. I think this is why as we get old, we become more and more accepting of death.
God speed ladies and gentlemen, whatever battles you face, I hope you never let them win.
originated from oasis lad
This is my favorite oasis song but this version just brought me to tears
“Life itself is wrong. And that means death is right. But you can't side with that. So you live.”
Rick and morty always throwing in those random emotional punches I love it
This one hit hard. Real hard. I genuinely cried for the first time in years. This one's gonna haunt me for awhile. Thank you.
Yeah I saw this randomly watching eps with a mate, just after we lost a third to the whole episodes premise.
Too soon, too much and too relevant. Beautiful song, great ep but holy man.
It literally brings me to tears everytime now, without fail.
This is probably one of the best scenes in the show by far.
I'm not crying. You are. Man what an amazing episode. Thanks for all, this is not just a cartoon.
That part makes me cry so bad. I don't know why. Makes me hate how short our lives are. That is the most human part and touching moment I've ever seen on any show.
I like how things also come full circle in that the guy who got divorced was the same guy who the Smith’s were eating at the start of the episode and Rick and Morty attended the funeral of. Same hair and grown up kids.
YOOOO I DIDN’T REALIZE THAT
I guess since that guy didn't age, that probably means he killed himself after the divorce
@@PikachuTheAnimator That doesn't really work, though. Looks like Fred and Amber had at least 20 years together, judging from how much she visibly ages between the time she shows the divorce decree and the moment she sits on the porch with Fred eating jam. The time between Rick and Morty attending the funeral of Amber's first husband, Lawrence, and Fred's suicide can't be more than a few months, just enough for Fred's entire world to descend into spaghetti-fueled madness. The photo at Lawrence's funeral DOES show him older than he was in the flashback, hearing Amber tell him about her and Fred (and, oddly, when he's at the door, he appears to have a bandage across his abdomen, which as best I can tell is unexplained, but there's a "Carpenter of the Year" sign in the background so maybe it was work-related), but if he doesn't appear to have aged quite as much as Amber and Fred did, the simplest explanation is that at Lawrence's funeral, they just used a photograph of him that had been taken a few years earlier. That's not unusual - at my father's memorial, we used a photograph of him that had been taken at least 15 years before his death.
The song resonates with me. I’ve struggled with addiction and suicide and not being the person I want to be and I’m forever grateful for this song for reminding me I’m not alone.
You're definitely not alone. You got this, never give in. Hope you are doing better/will be doing better soon. You'll become the person you want to be, if you just work hard and put in the effort. I know I'm a random stranger on the internet, but I've been in the same position as you. I've hit rock bottom to the point where I've been on the brink of homelessness but I clawed out of this hole that I dug myself in and I pulled myself back to having a decent life finally. If I can do it, you can too. I believe in you. It will get better.
@@Cazammafcomments like these make me cry happy tears, i love them because it shows even if you're struggling, some random person is there to support you
If you havnt already I thoroughly recommend listening to the original oasis song
I wish I could be there for you
this nearly made me to the stage of holding back tears becuase of how human and how beautiful the scene is
I wasn't expecting this, the episode itself was bleak enough, but this scene just broke me, had me crying bad. This is why I love Rick and Morty.
The most meaningful scene I've ever watched in my life. I'm not easily moved by things I watch, especially not by drama nonsense. I haven't been able to shake off the impact of a 3-minute video for a week now. Life comes and goes; there's no benefit in dwelling on the past. Despite getting caught up in the hustle of daily life we shouln’t forget: every life is precious - especially our own.
I've heard so many songs be turned into the sad acoustic guitar version, or the spooky piano version in the past 10 years. I never thought i'd hear LIVE FOREVER (my favorite song) by OASIS get this treatment, and I never thought it would be in a Rick and Morty clip that would make sad, and I definitely didn't think i'd like it so much. But here we are.
Pass the jam.
Oasis did an acoustic version, its quite well known its better than this version, this version is awful
Let's get some tickets ladss
I've had this song stuck in my head for the past few days. Makes me tear up everytime I see it😢 Even after all the ups and downs, everything was still okay. Life is complex.
oasis did the original if you didnt know. you should check it out.
We're all crying right? It's okay to cry, right? 😢
TY!!! IM LIKE AM I THE ONLY ONE SOBBING RIGHT NOW???
I feel nothing... I was surprised that he made a FLAWLESS victory in shark tank.
She left her husband and kids why would I cry for a horrible person
@@jordanlaplante1131 YEA your right. Women are more likely to like you beacuse of your looks or how successful you are, not because of who you are. In most cases.
Crying. I want to go back and get my 11 years of mistakes erased. I let fear consume every breath and I stayed so inert isolated…no one cares, sorry. First TH-cam comment ever 😅
First time watching this n I was crying uncontrollably.. such perfect human emotions and the song hits. Absolutely golden media.. bravo to the team who created this masterpiece
For those that don't know this is a cover of " Live forever" by Oasis. Pretty awesome rock band from the 90's.
Dude, are you really telling me that there are people out there who don't know Oasis??!
@@Bonygasse Gen Z don't have a clue. They think this is the original song.
@@therambler3713 ouch
wdym bro, gen z here and, even though i’m and oasis fan, i think the biggest part of our generation knows at least wonderwall (one of oasis’ worst songs tho xd)
I wish this clip included the part where they cut Fred up, and said “It’s Spaghetti Time!”
Literally rewatched it soooo many times such a great moment thank you
Did anyone notice at 1:35 that he slightly jerks the wheel to the right? Almost like running the car off the bridge was a quick and fleeting thought
I just can't watch this scene without bursting into tears. Simply wonderful and poetic. Best ever!!
I love the detail that the husband Amber abandons is the one guy whose obituary Rick and Morty are attending.
Through the short, we only see the ups and downs of Fred, and while it’s heartwarming that Amber and Fred end up together at the end, through the husband, the show subtly reminds us that we’re not alone in this world, and that maybe we live our happy lives in expense of other people’s happy lives, (the couple reconnecting comes at the expense of the husband’s depression and suicide).
Or it could just be Rick and Morty being edgy again. This show doesn’t know what it wants to be sometimes.
Def one of the highest moments of the show tho for me.
I actually prefer this version of "Live Forever" over the original.
Also, Ian Cardoni is getting even better as Rick. He was really great throughout this episode especially during the "complexity of life" speech. Morty's voice needs a lot more work though.
Yeah, I really like Ian's take on Rick. Even when the voice is off a bit, the inflections and mannerisms are on point.
Oh my...
How's he getting better if all the lines are prerecorded? He's been good
Yeah no one cares what you think bud
I personally have no complaints about Morty's new VA, I guess that's just me.
This absolutely tore my heart out, I've always loved oasis, this cover is easily the best live forever rendition ever
A surprisingly sad and deep moment in an episode with a seemingly silly premise. Reminds us that every person who had ever died once had lived very different lives from each other, with their own dreams, passions, feelings, hope, and fears. I almost cried during this scene.
Rik n morty is something special. I know we lost the main actor but this just shows this series was never about him anyway. It's the amazing writers this show has. This just showed why this show is amazing it's funny, it's supremely clever and inventive, it doesn't shy away from controversial subject matter, it's brave , it's bold, it's unpredictable, at times truly emotional and can make you cry. In a word it's human and I love it ❤
this is how everyone should go. they get a recap on every single moment of their lives, see what went wrong, or what went right. and pass on knowing what kind of lives they led
Fred didn't accomish all his goals and he hit some rough patches but he lived a fullfilled life in the end.
That’s the truth that all people should strive for
@@ironicweeb4111Tried it, Life ain't worth it, Noone to love that comes with it either
But through his business, he inspired a new generation of architects; one of whom fulfilled his dream.
This EP was such a masterpiece.

The scene where both his parents pass away hits so hard. I was raised by my grandparents and lost them both in the last 3 years. I remember how both of them loved having me back anytime I visited home. I felt like a kid everytime in their presence. Now their home is an empty space for me.
I feel you buddy, grief is hard to live with and never truly goes away. I've found it easier focusing on memories rather than the loss.
Lost my Grandad 3 months ago and he was practically my dad. Lost my mum to suicide shortly after my 1st son was born 2 years ago.
Hope things get easier for you, you loved them and cherish what moments you had I'm certain they wouldn't want you to dwell just like in my case.
I come back to this video every few months because i relate to it a lot
I ditched two groups of friends to do my dream of video game design and college and university only for it all to collapse when covid started ending with a 2:2.
I then had to move back with my dad and had the exact same frustration as him using the construx with my game dev tools.
I am now moved out working as a pharmacy assistant trying to find my "fredblox"
Cry every time i watch it.
This scene had me choking up. I relate to it because I have a lot of vivid happy memories from childhood and I also went to college and have it not work out, then become depressed and start drinking like Fred did. I’ve also never had a girlfriend or been in love and I’m in my 30’s so the parts with Amber made me sad because I never had any of that in my life and a lot of times feel like I never will at this point.
Sorry curt
You will Find your Love, eventually.
Or Maybe you already have, but it's not necessarily in human form.
@@hoodedwizard4695 sadly I don’t believe that I will. Most women aren’t interested in dating a man in his 30’s with no dating or relationship experience. They expect you to have that by this age and feel like men my age without it will have to be taught by them how to even be in a relationship and they fear that we will become super clingy as well since she’s his first at such a late age, so they opt to just date someone else with an average level of experience instead. I also don’t think love in something that isn’t in human form is a viable substitute either, we’re biologically programmed to want it in human form.
@@curtis4170 You Seem to have a lot of experience in dating for a guy that never Dated.
@@curtis4170 As with lots of things, we often make things a bigger deal to ourselves than they are to others. I know it's easier said than done, but try to focus on the positive things in your life, rather than dwell on the negatives, or the "missed." I'm sure there are things you've done in your life that many of us have missed in our 20s being in less than happy relationships. From my experience, relationship experience is not something that is high up on peoples' lists of priorities when they're looking for a partner.
If there's anything to take away, is how this character had a passion in his life, for architecture in this particular case.
I hope you find the love you're looking for.
I like how nobody in this is perfect or good, it’s just people doing things. He cheats and fails at his dream, she leaves her husband and the father of her children. He changes his goals but works towards those new goals. Good depiction of life just being life.
This is Both Tragic and Beautiful. A Life lived to the fullest.
1:41 "maybe I will never be all the things that I want to be" hits hard.
2:31 I just noticed this, but are those bandages around his torso? Does that imply he was suicidal before she divorced him?
Could mean she's stepped put on him in the past and he's gotten angry and gotten beaten up. So now he wasn't even going to try fighting for her anymore.
Make people see the sad story of the character, make them like him, then make then watch him at his last moments, then make them watch Rick open his corpse open and serve his insides to his Grandson. Truly a master piece.
I love Kotomi’s songs with R&M; don’t look back it’s still goated
Maybe
I don't really wanna know
How your garden grows
'Cause I just wanna fly
Lately
Did you ever feel the pain
In the morning rain
As it soaks you to the bone?
Maybe I just wanna fly
Wanna live, I don't wanna die
Maybe I just wanna breathe
Maybe I just don't believe
Maybe you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever...

Now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why

One of the best oasis tunes
I JUST WATCHED THIS EPISODE WHILE HAVING DINNER AND ENDED UP CRYING, THINKING ABOUT HOW MUCH I MISS MY FAMILY AND HOW BADLY I WANT TO HUG THEM. I DIDN'T SEE IT COMING. WITH THE SONG AND A PERFECT OASIS COVER IN THE BACKGROUND. THIS IS CINEMA. I DIDN'T EXPECT A SCENE LIKE THIS FROM RICK AND MORTY. GOD, I LOVE RICK AND MORTY. NOW I'LL BE LISTENING TO THIS SONG ALL WEEK.
Hallmark of a good show is to be able to hit the strings that all bind us.
Hat's off.
Noel Gallagher actually wrote this song for his Mother and Liam Gallagher stated that its his favourite Oasis Song..
He didn't write it for his mother he said he just sad down and it just came to him
