Deciding to not skip the ad for Brittle Bones Nicky 1 years ago after realizing it was actually sort of catchy was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made
@@masternate2993 And Nicky, as the MAN he is meant to be, understand that. That´s something I love about this character. No matter the problems he had, the criminal life, the loved ones he has lost (or in this case that betrayed him)...que always choose love instead of hate. He trully knows whats the right thing to do, and don´t doubt about it at all.
Feel like that line is the story of his life. He’s given a lot to save others, plus the last few seconds with Hank and Ben seem to imply even after he’s died he’ll go and save his only friend
So now we got 1. A protagonist; Nicky 2. A sidekick; Ben 3. A lovable side character; Hank 4. A love interest; Karla 5. An antagonist; Chaplin I wonder where 4 will take us...
I really like how loyal Nicky is to his friends, even to the end, even after they double crossed him. He still jumped on that train even after knowing what Karla did, allowed himself to be framed so she could escape, didn’t blame her for what she did because he knew how terrible her life had been. That’s really nice in a way
Ive been listening to Rare Americans for 5 years, It started with brittle bones Nicky, and to see how far they have come and how many people they have helped just warms me to my heart. Long live Brittle Bones Nicky 🦴
You know, 4-5ish years ago, I got an ad for the first song and actually stayed for it and followed it. Now I sit with baited breath waiting for more. We love Brittle Bones Nicky. Thanks RareAmericans!
Sucks she betrayed him, but I like how "If it cost me my life to save my only friend" plays during tge scene. He doesn't regret helping her, it just broke his heart.
He doesn't seem to hold it against her either, and given that both of them have had unfortunate upbringings, he probably understands why she did what she did, and thought that she deserved it more than him.. Okay ramblings over I'm just expositing a lot here
I found the first Brittle Bones Nicky back in middle school. Now here I am in College, having just moved in and the third comes out. Can't wait to see where Sir Brittle Nicky Bones will take us! 🦴
@@pie_man9176 dudeee, the community post said “end of the trilogy” but they hinted at PART 4 at the end of the video 🥹 do you think they will continue this series?
Love how Ben figures out it’s Nicky, told him how to get out, saw him get the key, and honestly he’s the only dude chill enough to get a pass from some primordial skeleton.
Just wait till Brittle bones Nicky new game where Nicky has to fight the devil to get back all the people out of hell cause everyone went to hell in brittle bones Nicky eternity war the song with the eternity stones
one thing I was thinking, and is currently just my little headcannon, Ben was also contracted by God/Satan his deal? get Nicky as his pawn, explains how he even knew how to get god on side, both of them risking their souls to save the other, It'd be funny if in the future Nicky did break into hell to try and save Ben, only to find ben's already free
I really hope 4 expands more on Nicky's afterlife because at this point we're getting into major spoiler territory for the movie and I kinda wanna know why Hank is excited to see him since, as far as I am aware, Nicky was just another passenger to him
Every installment into Nicky’s life has been a treat to watch/listen to. I’ll never forget hearing Brittle Bones Nicky 2 for the first time and going “hold on I gotta listen to the first one” I’ve been an RA fan ever since
The cardinal showing up several times in this is amazing! I don’t know if it’s in the others but the symbolism is killing me. Cardinals are said to be loved ones coming back to watch over you, so in a story like this about Nicki’s ghost it holds so much weight! Amazing as always.
@@jaded6779 probably shifty tbh, im not sure his mom was a big part of his life as im pretty sure she died when he was pretty young, so i think shifty would make more sense, given he was there at a later, more impactful part of his life
It's either Shifty, or Nicky's ghost himself from the future. We've already seen that he was sent back in time to care for his mother, and he was there when Nicky himself went against Satan. He maybe took care of himself throughout his life.
Haha, good point! The cardinal definitely brings some heavy symbolism, though. It’s like Nicky’s got more than just ghost vibes-he’s got a whole spiritual squad backing him up. Makes the story hit on another level!
2:40 the cards shown coild actully mean something with nucky and what's to come using cartomancy (divination with cards) with the Jack of Spades could mean deception, cunning, or false illusions, and the card as a person represents a young man who is a trickster of sorts. While Jack of Club represents taking action, courage, and a leap of faith, but it could also mean recklessness, while the card as a person represents a free spirited young man who can be there in time of need or "if it cost ones life they'll safe you in the end". While the Joker card for "The Chaplin" represents chaos, unpredictability, and also could represent the "calm before the storm".
3:44 The best part of this song, I’d love to see a full rendition of this maybe. Another one was “Is Karla coming? Karla is not!” Karla’s voice actor/singer kinda felt flat but still amazing as always.
I love how it keeps circling back to the other songs, it just feels so amazing when i go "HOLY SHIT IS THAT THE CHORUS FROM BRITTLE BONES NICKY (X)????"
@@Akira89388 Trust me, I play DnD weekly, I'm tired of this shit, everything is a DnD joke and all the DnD memes are soft Tumblr grade jokes, great game, but holy fuck the community is as interesting as a wet towel.
OMG THIS WAS AMAZINGGG!!! THE WAY IT PARALLELS WITH PART 2 AND HOW IT WAS A REFLECTION OF HIS LIFE? PHENOMENAL!! Also I’m not sure if it’s obvious to anyone else but the way the visuals have improved from 1 to 3 is phenomenal!!! KUDOS TO ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED BEHIND BBN THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!
I swear when every time I listen to this song, especially this part of the song reminds me of another song 0:38 (here's the time) Also, Thank you @RareAmericans for making these songs especially with "Run the World" that helped me a lot when I was going through stuff. Keep at it gentlemen!👍
@@Jojos_rudolf_von_stroheim I actually found out about these guys 2 years ago when they were putting up ads with their songs and that’s what started it all for me
The fact that Nicky has been through so much shit because of Karla yet he still doesn’t regret getting framed for it really proves that as long as Nicky considers you a friend he won’t regret whatever you do even if you backstab him he’s still loyal to the end. Gotta admire that guy.
For real, Nicky’s loyalty is on another level. He’s been through hell and still doesn’t regret a thing-dude’s ride-or-die no matter what. You gotta respect that kind of commitment, even when he’s getting burned.
@@RareAmericans Something I noticed is that even though you guys swap animation companies and animators all the time, the same people have done the BBN songs.
I think this is my favorite one had a song that brought you in and the animation that hooked you two wasn’t a huge fan of the animation in purgatory with god but other than that everything was great but this one absolutely nails everything and give us more information on Nicky’s life it’s absolute perfection
The chorus saying Nicky would do it even if its tricky, fail, and the end calling him “Not so crafty or tricky” is so cool. Especially when its wrong compared to the rest of his story
It kinda makes me think that Nicky saw the Circus as a sort of 'heaven' that he was excited to be at! Either that, or the whole thing God did with tricking Nicky and turning out to also be Satan could be represented there as a 'circus trick'
Love the lore of Brittle Bones Nicky as his life and afterlife were given an overview with 1 and 2, and now we are going into the nitty gritty of the defining moments of Nicky's life. Love it and love your music. Great work and great beats! 🦴
@@Rmsdxdkskxelfm In the first song of the trilogy he said he was twenty one when he got caught by the cops so it is close to when he did get sent to jail here, and I believe it was implied that he was old when he left jail and that he stayed there for years. It’s possible that in this case the line meant that he was in and out of jail for a time. Good catch about the age thing though.
@@dominicwhite8710 they were both young when they first met and probably over time became closer something happened to him probably protecting Nicky. this is my theory Nicky in the first song feels like he regrets not helping out someone in his past now I think that person is shifty
@@ftsfsefrtyto8154 I think you’re right about Shifty and Nicky’s friendship but Nicky was clearly locked up at 21 & it seems he’s in prison until he’s elder in the first song but now it’s 20 & he’s locked up for 4 years then goes on parole which he breaks for Karla
I never realized how much your guys' music had helped me until I started to learn how deeply sad I am and how many times the beat has got me out of some of the worse thoughs one can have. Thank you. ❤
I love how Nicky doesn’t seem to regret helping Karla, and is just heartbroken, he doesn’t obviously let this betrayal stop him from saving others (specifically Ben) later on! Tbh I can see where he’s coming from personally, when you feel like you have no one to look out for you, you can very well try and always look out for others bc you know what it feels like to be in their shoes
I think Karla abandoning him last minute is honestly a very real moment, someone who's been that screwed over by trusting somebody as a child wouldn't exactly be eager to run away with another person so soon the second after being freed, love or not. I really can't blame her too much I also love that Nicky doesn't regret it even if it broke his heart. He still cares about her and he still saved her from a horrible abusive situation. Dude is a saint
@@SparksSowa Oh ya there said there gonna make a movie about brittle bone Nicky it still pre production but still there are gonna the movie about brittle bone Nicky.,
So, here's my understanding of Nicky's story so far: Nicky was a foster kid who met a teenager named Shifty. They did the criminal life together until one day Shifty got killed (apparently because of Nicky) and Nicky did 4 years jail time. He gets out at 20 years old, has his stint in the circus, then gets into the criminal life again at 21. He gets arrested during a drug bust and gets sent to prison again where he meets and befriends a man named Ben. He lives out the majority of his remaining life in prison before dying of old age and getting sent to hell. In hell, a creature (an imp?) named Hank acts as his guide. He sees his mother and Ben in the afterlife, and so to be with his mother again and avoid hell, Nicky makes a deal with God to torment the living on his behalf. Now, Nicky has used his power to bust Ben and Hank out of hell in preparation for Brittle Bones Nicky 4.
@@EthanPence-pq5hv you're right, it couldn't of killed him because we see a polaroid of 16 year old nicky with shifty and the pie happened when nicky was visually way younger
It’s cool to see more of Nicky’s life when he was younger especially after he had grown up a bit, he’s not completely put together but he’s clearly more mature then he was when he was a kid/teen
I just want people to appreciate how much the animation got better and better through every episode, it's so impressive and beautiful, and the music is addicting
Glad you noticed! We’ve definitely put a lot into making sure the animation keeps evolving with the story. It’s awesome to hear that people are connecting with both the visuals and the music-it means a lot to us!
@@RareAmericans I also draw on my side, I'm not a pro but honestly, the person who animates the series keeps improving a lot. I really admire the lighting, the colors, the bodies, movements, emotions, backgrounds, etc. It's really difficult to draw music due to the rhythms and stuff but the person doing it all killed it. And you too, the music is fire, listening to it everyday. Literally, I screamed at my friends when I got the notification of the song and they all screamed back all happy and stuff. That song is a legend.
Oh my god how times have changed. The first one came out when I was I like 5th grade now I turn 18 in a few months. Rare Americans songs helped younger me so much with everything I struggled with so many songs I connected with and just overall my favorite band back then now come years later I haven’t listened to RA in forever and see this and their sound instantly connected with me the way it used to. They’ve just gotten better through all this time
0:12 this is actually crazy bc it shows that not only did shifty not die from slamming his chin but he later got on friendly terms with nicky and 2 other kids calling themselves the skeleton crew, probably setting up a story for a future part
I was sooo worried about this not meeting expectations after 2 years since BBN2, but OH MY GOD, Rare Americans hit ALL the marks and came back with PEAK BBN
WE NEED PART FOUR, I'm already seeing how heaven was influenced by his time in the circus, the guy who said welcome to heaven sounds and has the same mannerisms as the Ring Master
what an emotional trip it is to see part 3 seven minutes after it comes out, only to be hungry for part 4 and know it will take 2+ years for it to happen!
sorry but... Brittle Bones Nicky 67. I mean I have nothing against sequels, but I think the more they drag out the story, the worse and worse it will get
@@Sofokeatpilaf so I'm right? I mathed it out to be around mid-late 60s for his death also yeah, I think they should just do one more for his time as a task worker for the Devil and have him go to heaven, ending the story there, any more and it's just too much, In my other comment I put here
@@TheAlchemistOfMythos Ok, that sounds good. Although I think RA should decide for themselves. Take a break, gather their thoughts and make a cool song to REALLY end the whole story cool. I just hope that happens
@@Sofokeatpilaf fair assessment, and I do agree it's up to the band, I don't want the fans to become toxic like the Karlson feinds who pushed Dani off the Internet, I do LOVE the bulk of the interconnected lore they have for many many many of heir songs
The wait for this was soooo worth it. I noticed multiple subtle call backs to the first two songs which really made this song so great. Loved the story portrayed in this one. This may become my favorite song by y'all for just how great this was.
Thank for making a role model character with Nicky. Like yea hes done wrong and stuff but he also always trys to help even in his own messed up world and its way relatable. But it makes it feel more ok if that makes sense makes its feel like theres a chance.
One ad so many years ago led me to discover this band, and jesus do they deliver. Since then i litterly grew up and turned 18 listening to this band. Crazy how fast time flies
Ok this animation, story telling, song, and,hell, the video quality is so freaking good. Even leaving a cliffhanger at the end for the fans to lurk for more of Nicky’s fans is amazing. Nice work Rare Americans. I’ll stick around for more.
Life has been in such a crappy place for me in the last couple years. Nicky's tenacity to follow through and trudge his own path in spite of all the shit in his life has really inspired me to push forward in my own life. I love this song series, and i hope you guys truly know how much these songs can speak to people. Thank you RA, my fave band of all time.
Lyrics : Friends! Foes! What can I say? I'm back for more, I couldn't stay away People ask, where's part 3? You ready? You ready for me? I'm taking you back to age twenty There was love, deceit, and mystery When Shifty died, judge gave four years The worst thing ever that a kid could hear When you got a record, you're kinda screwed So I got a job cleaning up hotel rooms Then I saw a beauty that blew my mind When a circus came to town one night And threw a party in the banquet hall That's where I met her, at The Chaplin ball Her name was Karla, I was so transfixed A rush of blood, straight to my ("WOW") Mysterious as the flight of doves That's tailed me ever since I lost my mom She invited me to watch her fly trapeze Fuck parole, I do as I please! Nobody ever been there to look out for me I'm all on my own in shit city Nobody ever been there to look out for me Caution to the wind, man it feels real free! Should I? Do it? (Ya!) Screw it? (Ya!) Prove it? (Ya!) Even if its... Risky? (Ya!) Tricky? (Ya!) Sticky? (Ya!) Ok let it roll Ok let it roll We've got lions, we've got bears We've got tigers in their underwear's Step right up, Nicky! Step right up! Welcome to the circus! I jumped in the back of a truck I thought oh man, holy fuck! The circus was tailor made for me Oddballs, misfits, livin' free Karla kept her cards real close She was hesitant of trusting folks One night we were out watching the stars On a truck bed she finally opened up her heart My parents sent us on a ship in the night Escaped the war, fresh start at life We docked at a little port town Chaplin was out sniffing around "Why two princesses, want new dresses? Show you love, and what success is?" For some reason he liked me So I did some tricks Pockets taught me "Jazzy hands, oh me likey Come be a star, be like me!" Just like that, it came to be Brittle Bones Nicky, back to being tricky Nobody ever been there to look out for me I'm all on my own, in circus city! Nobody ever been there to look out for me Caution to the wind, man it feels real free! Should I? Do it? (Ya!) Screw it? (Ya!) Prove it? (Ya!) Even if its... Risky? (Ya!) Tricky? (Ya!) Sticky? (Ya!) Ok let it roll Ok let it roll Who knew I'd become a star Still a fugitive, my life's bizarre I promised I'd never steal again "A fool-proof plan", that's what Karla said We'd escape from Chaplin's thumb I didn't know the scary shit he'd done Kept their money and papers in a safe Key around his neck, girls knew their place Could I say no? She's all I had Risk was high, odds looked bad In his box at intermission "My star performer, dope magician" "A trick you say! give us a preview!" "Chaplin, could I demonstrate on you?" "Yes, yes, impress these guests" He had no clue I snatched the key from his neck "I can't wait for your closing act" If only they knew me and Karla's pact She's on stage, I'm set to close I snuck in, put the key in the hole Got the papers, got the cash Stuffed the bag, heart beating fast My heart was beating fast My heart was beating fast Man How long can I make this last? Should I? Do it? (Ya!) Screw it? (Ya!) Prove it? (Ya!) Even if its... Risky? (Ya!) Tricky? (Ya!) Sticky? (Ya!) Ok let it roll As the ring leader called out my name "Brittle Bones Nicky", Chap knew he'd been played Pacing my spot, casing this lot Is Karla coming? Karla is not Is she caught? My racing thoughts Then there she was right on the dot "I didn't mean to fall in love, you better run" One last kiss, "and Nicky they got guns" My heart was ripped, I was made a fool She double-crossed me, it was fucking cruel It was fucking cruel, she was fucking cruel If it cost me my life man I'd save my only friend That's something I could live with I could take that till the end Brittle Bones Nicky Not so crafty or tricky But that son of a bitch won't fold Cuz that son of a bitch is gold Friends! Foes! Is there part 4? Who knows what tricks I got in store But you know me Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! I'd never close that door
BBN1 - loved it with all my heart BBN2 - got me jiggy but super invested BBN3 while still being invested in story JESUS IS THE MUSIC JUST SOOOO GOOOOOODDD
No even lying, this is more interesting than over half of the movies and shows I've ever watched or series I've ever read. I really like how, even though there's a bunch of parts, no part overshadows the other
I saw the announcement literally 1 day before this came out, I was going to watch it right when it appears, but my phone died and I didn't have time later. But now, I'm still here, listening on repeat, and still struggling to believe that part 3 truly came out. Greetings from Russia, have a nice day!
Haha, that’s some bad timing, but glad you made it! Part 3 really feels like a long time coming, doesn’t it? So cool to hear you’ve been vibing with it on repeat. Greetings from our side, too-hope you’re having an awesome day!
I'm from Mexico and it's two days away from my birthday, this video is amazing and feels like a kind of gift since I've been following the band for quite some time and it's helped me with difficult times. Moving On helped me get over a toxic relationship I had and Black Sheep made me accept myself more over time. Thanks for everything
Brittle Bones Nicky He's not just crafty and tricky but if it caused his own life he'd do anything to keep his friends safe and live a happy life! Thanks for the third BBN Rare Americans!
God, I got so excited when I saw this! I loved the first two, and this is genuinely so amazing! The story, the music, the animation; it all just keeps getting better and better! :D
Wasn't it just a little filler-like episode that told us more about his life but in part 4 it's going to continue his sorry after he died and tricked god-devil?
This is perfection. Everything about the video, vocals, jokes and references. I cant wait for part 4. I've been waiting every year for the brittle bones nicky series to come out. It blows my mind every time. Thank you Rare Americans!
Absolutely blows my mind that after listening to this song and connecting the first that after you first met Shifty in the home you guys were enemies, you stood up for yourself and in the later years rekindled and became friends, that’s a true foster brother, I have one who I can’t imagine a life without, I’m so sorry you lost your mate man ❤️
I love characters that don't flip because their kindness or help was taken advantage of. Help is help even if you don't get anything in return. And there's no guarantee doing a favor will get back to you so it's nice to see characters that just feel more down to earth and have empathy
I wont lie one bit, 3 years ago i kept seeing Brittle Bones Nicky in in my fyp in youtube and kept ignoring it until i eventually clicked on it. Best decision ever.
Nicky is such an endearing and genuinely heroic character. The deepest core of his character is that no matter how terrible the odds are, and even if there's a chance he'll get completely screwed in the end by that same person, he'll never regret saving his only friend in need. Karla betraying him broke his heart, but he'd do it again in a heartbeat. It's just who he is.
You know, I don't know if anyone else mentioned this but from 1:14 to 1:20 when the announcer said "Step right up Nicky, step right up! Welcome to the Circus!!" It's most likely a reference to brittle bones Nickey 2 when the angel skeleton said "Welcome, Welcome Nicky! Welcome to Heaven!!" and I think that's fucking amazing holy shit.
You guys are honestly the main reason i bought a guitar with zero skill and started teaching myself and saving cash to take lessons, getting better day by day, love y'all ❤
Out of the 3 stories we've heard so far this one is definitely my favorite. I just love characters in circus and thieves , and it feels like Nicky was sneaky with this one. Usually he just goes in with violence, but this time he just went to steal something, and succeeded.
got me waiting 5 years for this, lets see this, ill edit in my thoughts on it soon Results: Alr so this is SO PEAK BRO, first we got a refrence from bbn1 (Shifty) i just love it, its a banger plus the chorus was just PEAK "SHOULD I DO IT (YA), SCREW IT (YA) THREW IT (YA)" is just so peak. Plus the ringleader doing the "Step right up nicky" Remind me of that part in BBN2 where "Welcome nicky!! Welcome to heaven!!!" THIS IS JUST SO PEAK, I AM SO HAPPY THAT I CAME ALL THIS WAY, BEEN WAITING FOR 5 YEARS!!!! I LOVE THIS MAN, I LOVE RA, I LOVE THIS SONG, I LOVE ALL THIS, PLUS THE CHORUS FROM BBN1!!!!! ITS JUST SO PEAAAAAAAAAAAKK, and also that part when nicky blushes, ITS ALSO FROM BBN1 WHEN PEOPLE IN THE BACKROUND SAYS "Woah!" WHEN HE GETS..yknow.. alr time to sit back and wait another 7 years for BBN4 🛌😴
Can't wait for part 4. Nick is still my favourite of your creations ever since I saw the first BBN music video. The melody of every installment just gets better and better
Ugh I just love the brittle bone Nicky series! 0:40-1:03 I don't know what it is called but I LOVE this type of singing. "If it cost me my life I'll save my only friend" that is such an iconic line for me
I love the little homages to the previous parts and I really hope this is a movie one day. I remember being a preteen imaging what the different parts of Nicky’s life would entail in more detail and here we are!!!
I love that theres actual dialogue in this one and its very unique compared any other music videos keep up the good work rare Americans! and if you dont mine me asking will there be a movie?

Hi!
🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴🦴 🦴
Finna see if I can catch yall in Orlando
Deciding to not skip the ad for Brittle Bones Nicky 1 years ago after realizing it was actually sort of catchy was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made
FR thank god I didn't skip that ad 4 or so years ago i've loved this band for a while
The exact same thing happened to me. Happy I didn't skip either.
Same with me but it was rhythm kitchen
THANK YOU YES
I skipped it the first time, but every other time it came up i watched it eventually i tracked it down to here
The third “it was fucking cruel” had her voice at the end of it, showing that she felt regret too, such a complex romance now lost.
she will probably appear in the future
She will be back. You can´t put a lady like that just to leave her like that
She literally told him that she "didn't mean to fall in love" of course she regrets it but she chose her sister over nicky
@@masternate2993 And Nicky, as the MAN he is meant to be, understand that.
That´s something I love about this character. No matter the problems he had, the criminal life, the loved ones he has lost (or in this case that betrayed him)...que always choose love instead of hate. He trully knows whats the right thing to do, and don´t doubt about it at all.
Really? I didn’t hear it but that’s pretty cool
I love it whenever the “if it cost me my life” motif reappears it’s so good
and its such a good line too, i love it
Feel like that line is the story of his life. He’s given a lot to save others, plus the last few seconds with Hank and Ben seem to imply even after he’s died he’ll go and save his only friend
YES
Also the line “brittle bones Nicky not so crafty or tricky” from Brittle Bones Nicky 2
Omg ikr?
So now we got
1. A protagonist; Nicky
2. A sidekick; Ben
3. A lovable side character; Hank
4. A love interest; Karla
5. An antagonist; Chaplin
I wonder where 4 will take us...
SIDEKICK?
4 will either introduce a new antagonist since Nicky broke gods deal by freeing Ben’s and Hank from hell
Js saying imagine a rare Americans board game
@@lethal.employe that would be awesome!
What about his girlfriend after Karla when he got arrested for cocaine
I really like how loyal Nicky is to his friends, even to the end, even after they double crossed him. He still jumped on that train even after knowing what Karla did, allowed himself to be framed so she could escape, didn’t blame her for what she did because he knew how terrible her life had been. That’s really nice in a way
He’s an a+ guy
Still ass of her, though.

Sucks she betrayed him, but I like how "If it cost me my life to save my only friend" plays during tge scene. He doesn't regret helping her, it just broke his heart.

@@robwater11 he’s a son of a bitch, but as said, he sure as hell is gold
He doesn't seem to hold it against her either, and given that both of them have had unfortunate upbringings, he probably understands why she did what she did, and thought that she deserved it more than him..

one thing I was thinking, and is currently just my little headcannon, Ben was also contracted by God/Satan his deal? get Nicky as his pawn, explains how he even knew how to get god on side, both of them risking their souls to save the other, It'd be funny if in the future Nicky did break into hell to try and save Ben, only to find ben's already free
@@CafeLiquerstreams "If it costs me my life, I'd save my only friend" goes both ways I guess
I really hope 4 expands more on Nicky's afterlife because at this point we're getting into major spoiler territory for the movie and I kinda wanna know why Hank is excited to see him since, as far as I am aware, Nicky was just another passenger to him
@@jackallope2200because Nicky is gold obviously, millions of people dig him
@@dr.nostalgia526 so god have him a pass to see his mom and watch her back.
Every installment into Nicky’s life has been a treat to watch/listen to. I’ll never forget hearing Brittle Bones Nicky 2 for the first time and going “hold on I gotta listen to the first one”
I’ve been an RA fan ever since
Please make part 4, I started knowing about this when no. 3 came out and I love the trilogy. Please make part 4 soon i can't wait
Man, they’re really making a movie
@@KeirRyen yup I think they have
Yeah the visuals were really fucking good!
@@Jeremy-bt8lo Wait they made a movie?
@@Thepresident498 No they meant it was like a movie (Wow I stand corrected lol)
Once the saga is finished, they should put all of the parts into one video. Or at least a playlist with all of the side stories included.
The cardinal showing up several times in this is amazing! I don’t know if it’s in the others but the symbolism is killing me. Cardinals are said to be loved ones coming back to watch over you, so in a story like this about Nicki’s ghost it holds so much weight! Amazing as always.
If that's The case could the Cardinal be His mom's spirit? I know we see her in Hell But, that would make sense why it stuck around him.
@@jaded6779 probably shifty tbh, im not sure his mom was a big part of his life as im pretty sure she died when he was pretty young, so i think shifty would make more sense, given he was there at a later, more impactful part of his life
It's either Shifty, or Nicky's ghost himself from the future. We've already seen that he was sent back in time to care for his mother, and he was there when Nicky himself went against Satan. He maybe took care of himself throughout his life.
@@applekoi8639 it's shifty because In this song Nicky talk about doves that have followed him since his mom died not cardnials
Haha, good point! The cardinal definitely brings some heavy symbolism, though. It’s like Nicky’s got more than just ghost vibes-he’s got a whole spiritual squad backing him up. Makes the story hit on another level!
That ending makes me emotional every time.
This series is so incredible.
2:40 the cards shown coild actully mean something with nucky and what's to come using cartomancy (divination with cards) with the Jack of Spades could mean deception, cunning, or false illusions, and the card as a person represents a young man who is a trickster of sorts. While Jack of Club represents taking action, courage, and a leap of faith, but it could also mean recklessness, while the card as a person represents a free spirited young man who can be there in time of need or "if it cost ones life they'll safe you in the end". While the Joker card for "The Chaplin" represents chaos, unpredictability, and also could represent the "calm before the storm".
3:44 The best part of this song, I’d love to see a full rendition of this maybe. Another one was “Is Karla coming? Karla is not!” Karla’s voice actor/singer kinda felt flat but still amazing as always.
Agreed
I love how it keeps circling back to the other songs, it just feels so amazing when i go "HOLY SHIT IS THAT THE CHORUS FROM BRITTLE BONES NICKY (X)????"
I love how Nicky is slowly building up a DnD party lmao

@@RareAmericans when show?
@@RareAmericans what will happen in the story next part?
I swear when every time I listen to this song, especially this part of the song reminds me of another song 0:38 (here's the time) Also, Thank you @RareAmericans for making these songs especially with "Run the World" that helped me a lot when I was going through stuff. Keep at it gentlemen!👍
Cannot believe the song that started this series was 5 years ago
Crazy how long ago that was
Oh well cuh
And we’ve been waiting ever since
@@Jojos_rudolf_von_stroheim I actually found out about these guys 2 years ago when they were putting up ads with their songs and that’s what started it all for me
fr
The fact that Nicky has been through so much shit because of Karla yet he still doesn’t regret getting framed for it really proves that as long as Nicky considers you a friend he won’t regret whatever you do even if you backstab him he’s still loyal to the end. Gotta admire that guy.
@@Projects1430 true loyalty is a virtue, from what I understand.
For real, Nicky’s loyalty is on another level. He’s been through hell and still doesn’t regret a thing-dude’s ride-or-die no matter what. You gotta respect that kind of commitment, even when he’s getting burned.
@@RareAmericansHow are you still replying, bro💀 it’s this type of dedication to their fans that makes me love artists.
@@WasdTheory if theyre dedicated enough to make GOOD sequel songs theyre dedicated enough to interact with the fans
The animators KILLED IT on this one
Absolutely!
@@RareAmericans Something I noticed is that even though you guys swap animation companies and animators all the time, the same people have done the BBN songs.
@@morganfishman5897passion is a helluva thing
@@RareAmericansIndeed
I think this is my favorite one had a song that brought you in and the animation that hooked you two wasn’t a huge fan of the animation in purgatory with god but other than that everything was great but this one absolutely nails everything and give us more information on Nicky’s life it’s absolute perfection
THIS IS SO COOL CANT WAIT FOR PART 4!!!!!!!!
The chorus saying Nicky would do it even if its tricky, fail, and the end calling him “Not so crafty or tricky” is so cool. Especially when its wrong compared to the rest of his story
I feel like the line that he isn't crafty or tricky highlights that the world is always playing tricks on him.
love the parallel between "welcome to the circus" with the "Welcome to heaven" in part 2
3D chess
@@RareAmericansChess is already 3D you canucks
i was looking for someone else that saw it
@@RareAmericans yes.
It kinda makes me think that Nicky saw the Circus as a sort of 'heaven' that he was excited to be at! Either that, or the whole thing God did with tricking Nicky and turning out to also be Satan could be represented there as a 'circus trick'
Love the lore of Brittle Bones Nicky as his life and afterlife were given an overview with 1 and 2, and now we are going into the nitty gritty of the defining moments of Nicky's life. Love it and love your music. Great work and great beats! 🦴
I thought he went to prison at 20 until he was old
@@Rmsdxdkskxelfm In the first song of the trilogy he said he was twenty one when he got caught by the cops so it is close to when he did get sent to jail here, and I believe it was implied that he was old when he left jail and that he stayed there for years. It’s possible that in this case the line meant that he was in and out of jail for a time. Good catch about the age thing though.
@@freezerburn046 what im lost on is i thought he hated shifty so why does it seem like they're friendly in this song?
@@dominicwhite8710 they were both young when they first met and probably over time became closer something happened to him probably protecting Nicky. this is my theory Nicky in the first song feels like he regrets not helping out someone in his past now I think that person is shifty
@@ftsfsefrtyto8154 I think you’re right about Shifty and Nicky’s friendship but Nicky was clearly locked up at 21 & it seems he’s in prison until he’s elder in the first song but now it’s 20 & he’s locked up for 4 years then goes on parole which he breaks for Karla
I never realized how much your guys' music had helped me until I started to learn how deeply sad I am and how many times the beat has got me out of some of the worse thoughs one can have.
Thank you. ❤
I love how Nicky doesn’t seem to regret helping Karla, and is just heartbroken, he doesn’t obviously let this betrayal stop him from saving others (specifically Ben) later on! Tbh I can see where he’s coming from personally, when you feel like you have no one to look out for you, you can very well try and always look out for others bc you know what it feels like to be in their shoes
Damn well played I should probably listen tbh
@@heriocilllusion3295 " I made the most of a terrible start "
I think Karla abandoning him last minute is honestly a very real moment, someone who's been that screwed over by trusting somebody as a child wouldn't exactly be eager to run away with another person so soon the second after being freed, love or not. I really can't blame her too much
I also love that Nicky doesn't regret it even if it broke his heart. He still cares about her and he still saved her from a horrible abusive situation. Dude is a saint
Nicky has earned Sainthood, imo.
100%. Nicely said.
I can, though. That was shitty of her.
I think to say he's a saint is a stretch, he's a good kid at the wrong place.
@@jvlfs He made the most of terrible start
BRUH PART 4?? I WAS JUST HAPPY WE GOT PART 3?? 💀💀💀
Technically BBN 1.5 is just a reprise of the first one
@@tempestst_pr0to i think he meant the end, with the part 4 door
Theres an unlisted trailer for a movie
@@glitch7155 HUH?
@@SparksSowa Oh ya there said there gonna make a movie about brittle bone Nicky it still pre production but still there are gonna the movie about brittle bone Nicky.,
OMG I LOVE YOUR MUSIC AND THR BRITTLE BONE NICKY SONGS, CAN WE PLEASE GET A PART 4
I feel like Brittle Bones Nicky deserves his own comic at this point, the Devils mischief maker sounds pretty interesting
Very cool sounding.
I know I kinda wish this part was about that
So, here's my understanding of Nicky's story so far:
Nicky was a foster kid who met a teenager named Shifty. They did the criminal life together until one day Shifty got killed (apparently because of Nicky) and Nicky did 4 years jail time.
He gets out at 20 years old, has his stint in the circus, then gets into the criminal life again at 21. He gets arrested during a drug bust and gets sent to prison again where he meets and befriends a man named Ben.
He lives out the majority of his remaining life in prison before dying of old age and getting sent to hell. In hell, a creature (an imp?) named Hank acts as his guide. He sees his mother and Ben in the afterlife, and so to be with his mother again and avoid hell, Nicky makes a deal with God to torment the living on his behalf.
Now, Nicky has used his power to bust Ben and Hank out of hell in preparation for Brittle Bones Nicky 4.
It's prob metaphoric, but he kills death at the beginning of this vid.
I thought he killed shifty with the pie?
If part 4 is him fighting God, that be fucking wild
@@Thestarofboishe didn’t kill him, shifty fell and hit his head on the table, I doubt that would kill him
@@EthanPence-pq5hv you're right, it couldn't of killed him because we see a polaroid of 16 year old nicky with shifty and the pie happened when nicky was visually way younger
It’s cool to see more of Nicky’s life when he was younger especially after he had grown up a bit, he’s not completely put together but he’s clearly more mature then he was when he was a kid/teen
Bro. Saw the first music video when I was 10. Now im 15 looking at the next part of this story. Please keep on making new parts of this Journey🙏
I love how he says "welcome nicki, welcome to Circus" it is really a Come back to "welcome to heaven"
I just want people to appreciate how much the animation got better and better through every episode, it's so impressive and beautiful, and the music is addicting
Glad you noticed! We’ve definitely put a lot into making sure the animation keeps evolving with the story. It’s awesome to hear that people are connecting with both the visuals and the music-it means a lot to us!
@@RareAmericans I also draw on my side, I'm not a pro but honestly, the person who animates the series keeps improving a lot. I really admire the lighting, the colors, the bodies, movements, emotions, backgrounds, etc. It's really difficult to draw music due to the rhythms and stuff but the person doing it all killed it. And you too, the music is fire, listening to it everyday. Literally, I screamed at my friends when I got the notification of the song and they all screamed back all happy and stuff. That song is a legend.
Oh my god how times have changed. The first one came out when I was I like 5th grade now I turn 18 in a few months. Rare Americans songs helped younger me so much with everything I struggled with so many songs I connected with and just overall my favorite band back then now come years later I haven’t listened to RA in forever and see this and their sound instantly connected with me the way it used to. They’ve just gotten better through all this time
0:12 this is actually crazy bc it shows that not only did shifty not die from slamming his chin but he later got on friendly terms with nicky and 2 other kids calling themselves the skeleton crew, probably setting up a story for a future part
Nikki also says in a little texting next to his head that it’s his fault shifty died. I’m pretty concerned as to what he did or blame himself for.
@@TNT19716 Could be from a cocaine overdose since Nicky was doing it
@@Lilimrrpin 2:06 you can see Nicky holding him and the way its framed, it does look like an overdose to me.
Maybe after Nicky absolutely humiliated Shifty he might've gotten Shifty's respect and they talked it out
No in rule the world you can see shifty with grown up Nicky. Shifty did not die at the table.
I was sooo worried about this not meeting expectations after 2 years since BBN2, but OH MY GOD, Rare Americans hit ALL the marks and came back with PEAK BBN
Did those marks include love, deceit and mystery by chance?
This trilogy has been a massive inspiration! Thank you for creating these masterpieces! 🦴🦴🦴

what an emotional trip it is to see part 3 seven minutes after it comes out, only to be hungry for part 4 and know it will take 2+ years for it to happen!
sorry but... Brittle Bones Nicky 67. I mean I have nothing against sequels, but I think the more they drag out the story, the worse and worse it will get
@@Sofokeatpilaf so I'm right? I mathed it out to be around mid-late 60s for his death also yeah, I think they should just do one more for his time as a task worker for the Devil and have him go to heaven, ending the story there, any more and it's just too much, In my other comment I put here
@@TheAlchemistOfMythos Ok, that sounds good. Although I think RA should decide for themselves. Take a break, gather their thoughts and make a cool song to REALLY end the whole story cool. I just hope that happens
@@Sofokeatpilaf fair assessment, and I do agree it's up to the band, I don't want the fans to become toxic like the Karlson feinds who pushed Dani off the Internet, I do LOVE the bulk of the interconnected lore they have for many many many of heir songs
The wait for this was soooo worth it. I noticed multiple subtle call backs to the first two songs which really made this song so great. Loved the story portrayed in this one. This may become my favorite song by y'all for just how great this was.
After all this years of listening I finally heard them all 🎉🎉🎉
anyone else notice how he holds the key at 2:55 over his heart? kinda like how karla was sort of the key to his heart?
cute
@GobIinVrwdym huh?
Another amaizing performance, as usual Brittle Bones Nicky.. 👏👏
Thank for making a role model character with Nicky. Like yea hes done wrong and stuff but he also always trys to help even in his own messed up world and its way relatable. But it makes it feel more ok if that makes sense makes its feel like theres a chance.
Best of luck for you in life
@@dantecopy4619 Thank you same to you!
One ad so many years ago led me to discover this band, and jesus do they deliver. Since then i litterly grew up and turned 18 listening to this band. Crazy how fast time flies
Ok this animation, story telling, song, and,hell, the video quality is so freaking good. Even leaving a cliffhanger at the end for the fans to lurk for more of Nicky’s fans is amazing. Nice work Rare Americans. I’ll stick around for more.
Life has been in such a crappy place for me in the last couple years.
Nicky's tenacity to follow through and trudge his own path in spite of all the shit in his life has really inspired me to push forward in my own life.
I love this song series, and i hope you guys truly know how much these songs can speak to people.
Thank you RA, my fave band of all time.

Lyrics :
Friends! Foes! What can I say?
I'm back for more, I couldn't stay away
People ask, where's part 3?
You ready? You ready for me?
I'm taking you back to age twenty
There was love, deceit, and mystery
When Shifty died, judge gave four years
The worst thing ever that a kid could hear
When you got a record, you're kinda screwed
So I got a job cleaning up hotel rooms
Then I saw a beauty that blew my mind
When a circus came to town one night
And threw a party in the banquet hall
That's where I met her, at The Chaplin ball
Her name was Karla, I was so transfixed
A rush of blood, straight to my ("WOW")
Mysterious as the flight of doves
That's tailed me ever since I lost my mom
She invited me to watch her fly trapeze
Fuck parole, I do as I please!
Nobody ever been there to look out for me
I'm all on my own in shit city
Nobody ever been there to look out for me
Caution to the wind, man it feels real free!
Should I?
Do it? (Ya!)
Screw it? (Ya!)
Prove it? (Ya!)
Even if its...
Risky? (Ya!)
Tricky? (Ya!)
Sticky? (Ya!)
Ok let it roll
Ok let it roll
We've got lions, we've got bears
We've got tigers in their underwear's
Step right up, Nicky!
Step right up!
Welcome to the circus!
I jumped in the back of a truck
I thought oh man, holy fuck!
The circus was tailor made for me
Oddballs, misfits, livin' free
Karla kept her cards real close
She was hesitant of trusting folks
One night we were out watching the stars
On a truck bed she finally opened up her heart
My parents sent us on a ship in the night
Escaped the war, fresh start at life
We docked at a little port town
Chaplin was out sniffing around
"Why two princesses, want new dresses?
Show you love, and what success is?"
For some reason he liked me
So I did some tricks Pockets taught me
"Jazzy hands, oh me likey
Come be a star, be like me!"
Just like that, it came to be
Brittle Bones Nicky, back to being tricky
Nobody ever been there to look out for me
I'm all on my own, in circus city!
Nobody ever been there to look out for me
Caution to the wind, man it feels real free!
Should I?
Do it? (Ya!)
Screw it? (Ya!)
Prove it? (Ya!)
Even if its...
Risky? (Ya!)
Tricky? (Ya!)
Sticky? (Ya!)
Ok let it roll
Ok let it roll
Who knew I'd become a star
Still a fugitive, my life's bizarre
I promised I'd never steal again
"A fool-proof plan", that's what Karla said
We'd escape from Chaplin's thumb
I didn't know the scary shit he'd done
Kept their money and papers in a safe
Key around his neck, girls knew their place
Could I say no? She's all I had
Risk was high, odds looked bad
In his box at intermission
"My star performer, dope magician"
"A trick you say! give us a preview!"
"Chaplin, could I demonstrate on you?"
"Yes, yes, impress these guests"
He had no clue I snatched the key from his neck
"I can't wait for your closing act"
If only they knew me and Karla's pact
She's on stage, I'm set to close
I snuck in, put the key in the hole
Got the papers, got the cash
Stuffed the bag, heart beating fast
My heart was beating fast
My heart was beating fast
Man How long can I make this last?
Should I?
Do it? (Ya!)
Screw it? (Ya!)
Prove it? (Ya!)
Even if its...
Risky? (Ya!)
Tricky? (Ya!)
Sticky? (Ya!)
Ok let it roll
As the ring leader called out my name
"Brittle Bones Nicky", Chap knew he'd been played
Pacing my spot, casing this lot
Is Karla coming? Karla is not
Is she caught? My racing thoughts
Then there she was right on the dot
"I didn't mean to fall in love, you better run"
One last kiss, "and Nicky they got guns"
My heart was ripped, I was made a fool
She double-crossed me, it was fucking cruel
It was fucking cruel, she was fucking cruel
If it cost me my life man
I'd save my only friend
That's something I could live with
I could take that till the end
Brittle Bones Nicky
Not so crafty or tricky
But that son of a bitch won't fold
Cuz that son of a bitch is gold

But you know me Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Ngl Nicky looks so innocent during this one
Right? I think he might be the up in quality but Nicky is so charming in this one 😭❤
SUCH A MASTERPIECE
my favorite bbn song out of the other 2
Absolutely blows my mind that after listening to this song and connecting the first that after you first met Shifty in the home you guys were enemies, you stood up for yourself and in the later years rekindled and became friends, that’s a true foster brother, I have one who I can’t imagine a life without, I’m so sorry you lost your mate man ❤️
I love characters that don't flip because their kindness or help was taken advantage of. Help is help even if you don't get anything in return. And there's no guarantee doing a favor will get back to you so it's nice to see characters that just feel more down to earth and have empathy
Perfectly said.
Better then IRL shit fr not many ppl are like that
I wont lie one bit, 3 years ago i kept seeing Brittle Bones Nicky in in my fyp in youtube and kept ignoring it until i eventually clicked on it. Best decision ever.
This is literally becoming a whole series. i love it!!!
Nicky is such an endearing and genuinely heroic character. The deepest core of his character is that no matter how terrible the odds are, and even if there's a chance he'll get completely screwed in the end by that same person, he'll never regret saving his only friend in need. Karla betraying him broke his heart, but he'd do it again in a heartbeat. It's just who he is.
You know, I don't know if anyone else mentioned this but from 1:14 to 1:20 when the announcer said "Step right up Nicky, step right up! Welcome to the Circus!!" It's most likely a reference to brittle bones Nickey 2 when the angel skeleton said "Welcome, Welcome Nicky! Welcome to Heaven!!" and I think that's fucking amazing holy shit.
ur right omfg
*"Welcome to Heaveeeeeeeeen!!!!!"*
I love this song! It complements the last two parts so well and I love the lyrics it's such a run of adrenaline
You guys are honestly the main reason i bought a guitar with zero skill and started teaching myself and saving cash to take lessons, getting better day by day, love y'all ❤
Out of the 3 stories we've heard so far this one is definitely my favorite. I just love characters in circus and thieves , and it feels like Nicky was sneaky with this one. Usually he just goes in with violence, but this time he just went to steal something, and succeeded.
Same, and 100%
got me waiting 5 years for this, lets see this, ill edit in my thoughts on it soon
Results: Alr so this is SO PEAK BRO, first we got a refrence from bbn1 (Shifty) i just love it, its a banger plus the chorus was just PEAK "SHOULD I DO IT (YA), SCREW IT (YA) THREW IT (YA)" is just so peak. Plus the ringleader doing the "Step right up nicky" Remind me of that part in BBN2 where "Welcome nicky!! Welcome to heaven!!!" THIS IS JUST SO PEAK, I AM SO HAPPY THAT I CAME ALL THIS WAY, BEEN WAITING FOR 5 YEARS!!!! I LOVE THIS MAN, I LOVE RA, I LOVE THIS SONG, I LOVE ALL THIS, PLUS THE CHORUS FROM BBN1!!!!! ITS JUST SO PEAAAAAAAAAAAKK, and also that part when nicky blushes, ITS ALSO FROM BBN1 WHEN PEOPLE IN THE BACKROUND SAYS "Woah!" WHEN HE GETS..yknow.. alr time to sit back and wait another 7 years for BBN4 🛌😴
10/10 it will be
How are yall so talented that a trilogy of songs is as well made as a high budget show everyone one of your songs are wonderfully made
Can't wait for part 4. Nick is still my favourite of your creations ever since I saw the first BBN music video. The melody of every installment just gets better and better
As soon as I saw this, I let an audible gas. I almost cried this guy carried my childhood.
Wasnt it 5 years ago💀

Ugh I just love the brittle bone Nicky series! 0:40-1:03 I don't know what it is called but I LOVE this type of singing. "If it cost me my life I'll save my only friend" that is such an iconic line for me
YAYYYYYY!!! This is the definition of peak

Beat: Fire

You have officially made another banger
I love the little homages to the previous parts and I really hope this is a movie one day. I remember being a preteen imaging what the different parts of Nicky’s life would entail in more detail and here we are!!!
I've listened to this song since it came out but I just saw the music video, it's so beautiful
It was only 4 minutes, but it was the best 4 minutes. Keep that door open for part 4!
I been here since BBN1, and frankly, it's as good as it was back then
I'M SPEECHLESS, IF I COULD I WOULD SHOW THIS SONG TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON ON EARTH!!!!
I love that theres actual dialogue in this one and its very unique compared any other music videos keep up the good work rare Americans! and if you dont mine me asking will there be a movie?
