    Him at the end clapping just makes it seem like he's so much crazier than they make you think with the song. Like he commissioned the song to be written, and then performed for him, him alone.

    One of my favorite bits of the live video is that it's an extended version of the song actually. the orginal ends with stabbing shia in the kidneys and then you're safe. And I remember watching the video for the first time and when the line "But wait! He isn't dead! Shia Surprise!" happened I laughed so hard I almost passed out.

    One of my favorite things about this video is that before it was released, the "Shia Surprise" verse of the song had not been released, it originally ended with the protagonist suffocating Shia Labeouf. I still remember getting to that section right when it first came out and being super hyped by the addition of that last verse.

My understanding was he didn't really ask to be there or tell anyone, because he wasn't billed and just had a normal booth. Anyway I went and said hi and got a copy and told him I liked his work and that I wish him the best. He just say "Thanks for your support man, it really means a lot" and shook my hand.

I'd been wanting to learn silks for years prior, but I watched the Shia Labeouf video on repeat when it came out, so I think it helped reignite my interest and inspire me to sign up for a class! 🎪 It delights me that the director didn't know about the aerialists until day-of. Seems fitting.

I was like oh cool, and Bora, a good friend from the dojo was like "I was in that video too". Looks like he also helped put together those iconic masks!

      Ahhhh that makes sense - in citizen Kane if I recall correctly, the context of the scene is that he’s just tried to make his wife into a star that she absolutely was not destined to be. And while his applause seems enthusiastic, his facial expression is deeply troubled in a “what have I done?” Sort of way. But it’s been quite some time since I’ve seen it so I could be completely off basis

    I only just learned of Coz's passing from this video, although I'm sorry to say I knew it had been coming, I had not heard anything since end of 2021. I did not know him personally, but donated a few times to his GoFundMe for a heart transplant, and we exchanged a few messages in his last years. I also just realized in 2009 I emailed him a summary from a Tally Hall concert I attended for his website. He really seemed like an amazing person who's life was tragically cut short. Honestly I'm not sure why I felt the need to write all about it here - but I'm glad you included him in your video.

    Nice video man, you really picked up as much detail as you could in 15 minutes about Rob Cantor, Tally Hall and Shia LaBeouf. I have read other comments where they mention that you forgot some details about the three of them, but in reality, to be fair, there is so much to say about them and this video is spectacular.

    Jokes aside, for the success of this video the presence of Shia LaBeouf at the end was vital. That must be recognized and, I am happy to see that he cooperated with the project as well.

    I haven't listened to this song for 3-4 years, since I first heard it. Just today I somehow managed to stumble back to it in my playlists. And what do you know - just two weeks ago this essay was made.

    I'll never forget the first time I heard this song. I was heartbroken, sad, crying all the time. And then, on a Tumblr post, the text just said "it's October, it's that time of the year again", with a play bar below. No video, just audio. For some reason, I pushed play. And then, like magic, I started laughing my ass off at the most amazingly ridiculous lyrics I've ever heard...
    To this day, if I'm feeling sad and I want to shake it off, this is my song. The live video made it even better. I like bathos too, Rob.
