Fan fact: The person who is playing the kidnapper is actually Melanie's brother because she wanted to be comfortable by the way he was touching her which she wouldn't if it was a stranger.
As the song begins, it is evident that the "wolf" has been watching her for a while and sees her as the perfect victim. The "wolf" pulls up alongside Cry Baby in his car and offers her candy. The tinted windows will hide her once she's inside. Despite her refusal, he continues to pursue her and chase her through the parking lot, meaning that she's running and he's following after her. The phrase "Tag, you're it" is a metaphor for him catching her. He finally catches up to her, pushing her down to stop her from running, and covers her mouth so she cannot scream. She still screams for help, but her situation is starting to seem hopeless. She attempts to fight back by biting him, despite being incapacitated evidenced by the lyric, "Little bit of poison in me, I can taste your skin in my teeth". She is taken to his basement, where he is fascinated by the proof of her presence through something as simple as her breathing. As the last part of the chorus is sung, her tone shifts to a more bitter and angry tone, having given up hope of being rescued. The repetition of the phrase makes it seem as if it was replaying it in her head.
Milk and Cookies is NEXT!! It's a 2 part video so PLEASE do that next. Soap +Training wheels is another 2 parter for a story and you should totally watch those together after Milk and Cookies
Tag You're It music video is a double feature with Milk & Cookies, it's a sequel you must watch to finish the story about the wolf and what she does with he "blue liquid" 😊
ah yes the song that dominated the youtube art community in 2015, what a time. This one and "Pity Party" really stuck with me after all these years, they have such eerie yet memorable tones. Melanie Martinez's songs have always captivated me, they're such a rollercoaster!! Always a pleasure watching a Rykerroad reaction >:]
This like all her songs touches so well on such serious subjects. Another one of her songs that is along the same lines as this, is Strawberry Shortcake from her K-12 Album. The lyrics and music video are so powerful but be prepared when you come to it, you may need tissues.
I LOVE Melanie Martinez. From her voice, to her lyrics, to her videos. Music is an art, and she is an artist!!! I REALLY hope yall can keep doing her stuff.
this song its my favorite too !! many people say its disturbing and they will not play it again but its SO good and the emotion in her voice at the end 😍😍 simply one of her best works
I actually cannot wait for you guys to react to K-12 and After School!! My personal favs are lunchbox friends, the nurses office, field trip & highschool sweethearts!!! Please continue your Mel journey 💞💞💓
Milk & Cookies picks up right after and is a sequel. She did a combo video of the two songs together. She also did the same with Soap and Training Wheels.
watching you contunie to listen to the song and your reaction to "little bit of poison in me, i can taste your skiin on my teeth" was fabulous as you both truly realised what was going on
This was better than I expected... not usually my genre. Loved the scream at the beginning, Eric... and good to know no serial killers are in my house. If our fans aren't running, it's because the power is out!
Sadly the prequel to this song Pity Party is the song of hers that I’ve heard on the radio.Shes so underrated! Keep it up boys love ur reactions to het
You're watching on the wrong channel, someone reposted "Tag You're It" cropped away from the double feature. I'm sure you're already subscribing to her real channel 😅
The channel you guys watched this video on wasn't the offical Melanie Martinez channel... that's also the reason you missed the second part and continuation of Tag You're It
Milk and cookies is part 2 to this but at the very beginning she is throwing her decorations away from her “pity party” (also a very popular song from her)
Love the content and reactions! but just to let you guys know, Melanie's official account on UA-cam has around 15.6 million subs, I think you 2 were probably looking at her other account because on her official account, tag you're it's music video is only available to watch with the continuation music video, which is a whole different song (milk and cookies) . anyway just thought I'd let you guys know, please keep up the Melanie Martinez reactions and react to her movie/album k-12!
You guys NEED to listen to Iniko. Her songs have been making its rounds on social media. I can see why. Her songs are purely magic! The things she wtites about are what is needed in this world. Shes one of the soldier artists like Ren, Melanie, Chinchilla and anyone else fighting in this spiritual war. She is one of the soldiers and we need to support our spiritual troops ❤
You need to do milk and cookies next because it’s the second part to this song and the blue bottle will make sense later on. Love your videos and love watching your journey with her music! ☺️
Have y'all ever reacted to Emilie Autumn? A very unique sound indeed, and there's a song with a similar story to this but more dark and aggressive called Gothic Lolita.
It plays more into her journey, but the low sub count could be attributed to the 'death' of Crybaby when she released Portals (her most current album). Not going to dig too deep into that but it's big on rebirth as a theme and she carried that concept to the true end... she pretty much hit the big RESET button on her identity as an artist and rebooted her YT channel, among other things... When you get there, you'll see and understand more, though I would suggest getting through the major beats of her first 2 albums' timelines first, for sure
Great that you were somehow stunned in the same way I was, when I first saw this. XD I recomande like many other to watch the second song of this. Crybaby is her fictional character and it as a story line from birth death and with her newer songs, after death. This sweet girl is such an amazing artist. A perfectionist who makes everythings in the details. I watch an resent intervwie and she talked about the storys in her songs. That some where her one experiments, like bullying, and problems with her body as a woman. But some are also storys from friends and so on. K-12 is es Musical film I higly recomande to see as an whole things, maybe load in parts up. Its the school years from crybaby. But first comes first: "Milk an Cookies" greetings crazy dove tai
I love this one so much bc the other songs always are so straight forward, naming things by what they are, but this one seems to be less straight forward... and its even worse since she's portraying a child as crybaby... "little bit of poisin in me, i can taste your skin in my teeth" and the way "took the words" changes to "take the words right out my mouth" in the last chorus right after she sings the chorus a bit more angrily and then suddenly super sweetly is my favorite part. sooooo dark
Love yall so much! This reaction and review was spectacular and you analyzations of both the lyrics and music video were amazing. Btw if yall didn't know this song has a direct sequel called milk and cookies that continues with the same characters. I would recommend checking it out.
I hope after your guys trip down Melanie road you jump back on to checking out the rest of Set It Off's stuff after seeing how much you enjoyed Punching Bag
this song perfectly captures the question of "if you are alone in the woods would you rather be with a man or a bear".
I agree SO MUCH
Yes one hundred percent agree!!!!
Just for fun, have you listened to I Choose Violence by Jax?
It has to do with the bear thing
Hey guys! Milk and Cookies is the sequel to this song, so def listen to that next. It's a 2 part story.
YESS thats where Erics question will be answered 5:26
I hope they do !
Yes please!!!
Yes it’s how she get revenge!!
Fan fact: The person who is playing the kidnapper is actually Melanie's brother because she wanted to be comfortable by the way he was touching her which she wouldn't if it was a stranger.
that was in the crybaby tour. This is an actor💕
wait, fr? I appreciate the trust she has in her bro!
Not every story is true to her but she said she still wants to bring people to these topics that are taboo

Always a pleasure watching a Rykerroad reaction >:]
Pity party is one of my favourites too
This like all her songs touches so well on such serious subjects. Another one of her songs that is along the same lines as this, is Strawberry Shortcake from her K-12 Album. The lyrics and music video are so powerful but be prepared when you come to it, you may need tissues.
I LOVE Melanie Martinez. From her voice, to her lyrics, to her videos. Music is an art, and she is an artist!!! I REALLY hope yall can keep doing her stuff.

The "blue" was a scene from Milk and Cookies which is the next music video. This one is a double feature.
this song its my favorite too !! many people say its disturbing and they will not play it again but its SO good and the emotion in her voice at the end 😍😍 simply one of her best works
Eric just “Ahhhhhhh” in the intro 😂
Luv that she puts a childish approach to serious subjects. Makes it more Disturbed 😢 BIG BAD WOLVES come in all shapes and sizes
Soap\training wheels is still my favorite Duo as songs from her
I actually cannot wait for you guys to react to K-12 and After School!! My personal favs are lunchbox friends, the nurses office, field trip & highschool sweethearts!!! Please continue your Mel journey 💞💞💓
My favorites from k-12 Is show and tell, strawberry short cake, teachers pet, orange juice and drama club. Also the bakery.
Yes Eric. She is a vibe indeed
Milk & Cookies picks up right after and is a sequel. She did a combo video of the two songs together. She also did the same with Soap and Training Wheels.
One of my most favourite song from her ❤This video continues as Milk & Cookies.
watching you contunie to listen to the song and your reaction to "little bit of poison in me, i can taste your skiin on my teeth" was fabulous as you both truly realised what was going on
Carousel and pity party are definitely my favorites
This was better than I expected... not usually my genre.
Loved the scream at the beginning, Eric... and good to know no serial killers are in my house.
If our fans aren't running, it's because the power is out!
