My favourite Tom song and My favourite video, Love ur pluto and His backup little moons too, hate seeing jupiter's moons got dropped but It makes sense, It's really incredible work question tho, why is Mars holding a bucket??
Danke my friend! Ol' mate Mars is still looking for his water, and if Jupiter's moons had made the cut I was gonna knuckle down and animate them like the blibblies from Smiling Friends on a three-frame loop but it started looking like an epilepsy fest so I tapped out hehehe
Things I noticed: As others pointed out, the 4 band members with Pluto are Pluto's five moons, and at 0:58 we see all of them. From left to right: **Kerberos:** Also know as Cerberus, the 3 headed dog that guards the gates of hell. **Nix:** Named after the Goddess of Night, Nyx. Nyx is often depicted as having wings. I cannot figure out the meaning of the skull with one eye socket on her shirt. **Charon:** The "ferryman" of the boat that crosses the river Styx in Greek mythology. Most depictions show a sort of grim reaper type, but now he's a chill skeleton. **Styx**: You've probably heard of the River Styx, the river you cross to get to hell. Both the moon Styx and the River were named after the Goddess Styx, who is the Great-Aunt of Achilles. Who as you know, was dipped into that river when he was a baby. **Hydra:** Named after "Lernaean Hydra" referred to as a "Serpentine Lake Monster", It must be the reptile in a hoodie lol Quote from NASA: "All of Pluto's moons are named for mythological figures associated with the underworld, a naming conventions started by 11-year-old Venetia Burney in 1930." This is really funny but also interesting, since most of these names are only in Greek Mythology, and all planets except two, Earth and Uranus, are named after Roman Gods. All Planets have their respective symbols somewhere on their design, also shown at 3:08 on the wall. **Sun** has a small strip of white where her nose would be, like Sunblock! She has eyebags, maybe she can't sleep well. She also reminds me of Finn/Fiona **Mercury** is ??? looks like some sort of small demon guy **Earth** looks like a monkey/primate, also has one green and one blue eye **Venus** is named after the Goddess Venus/Aphrodite, and she's literally the goddess of beauty and sex **Mars* has brownish-red left eye with a white pupil. Mars in real life has a white spot in the south pole **Jupiter** is depicted as a bearded old man, on a sofa, drinking from a flask. This makes sense, Jupiter is the oldest planet in the solar system. **Saturn** has it's ring around it's head as a smoke trail, but Uranus does not have a visible one. **Uranus** is just kind of.. a blue guy??? Doesn't seem to be much going on with him. **Neptune** is a merman, since he is named after the Roman God of the Sea, like Poseidon All planets have a normal size for a humanoid, except for Pluto, the Dwarf planet. Pluto's bandmates are also similar size. 2:13 Jupiter is watching Star Wars, and he's the one who was called a failed star, and jealous of the sun 2:32 Kerberos looks as if it's howling up at the moon. Which would be funny since, y'know, the moons are on Pluto performing. 2:29: When the planets align, there is a single frame where the background turns white. It's barely noticeable when watching normally but I've watched this like fifty times lol. The scenes following the alignment show the solar system in order: Sun next to Mercury, then Earth next to Venus. Then Mars next to Jupiter, who is now smoking with Uranus, and last Saturn next to Neptune. Technically Earth and Venus are swapped. Venus is closer to the sun, which is shown in the alignment a few seconds earlier. After that scene, at 2:34, Jupiter is much more "relaxed" just like Saturn. He is also one of the only ones not pointing. Instead he is giving a thumbs up, Saturn is doing finger guns, and Neptune's arms are crossed. 0:19, 0:24, 2:53, 2:57 Most things we see in Tom's home are Space themed 1:42 "Black Hole Sun" Is really eating Time, in the form of a Stop Watch and Hour Glass Something I also wanted to point out that I found funny. It seems like the more mass/size you have, the farther you can see. Like it says "A quadrillion miles away, a place the sun could not see, there sat a bad bitch suckin' up reality" Every planet/object is jealous of one more massive than them, with the one exception being Pluto, who everyone admires. The second black hole, the one in the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, is called Sagittarius A*. Short version being Sgr A*. It has one of only two photos ever taken of a black hole. The Event Horizon Telescope was used for the project led by Kazunori Akiyama. If I missed anything cool/interesting, please let me know.
I think the "a place the sun could not see" would be referring that light do not escape a blackhole, so they literally can't see it since there's no light to bounce off of it to be visible
I love that you immediately add the joke on the first second by dressing our character in a Star Trek themed shirt during the "stops us in our track" lyrics. Fitting for the space guy, AND an extra joke.
It was interesting to see the process behind the scenes! Loved the musical video very much, it's noticeable that you put lots of energy and love into your work. Keep on rocking, Lanky, your art style is incredible and fun 🌟
Cuando salió la canción de TC yo me hice en mi mente un silly amv. Esto era exactamente en lo que pensaba de como sería, excelente trabajo, nuebo fan. 🌠🪐⭐
I just want you to know your video means so much to me and I love everything about it. The character designs, the animation, the art style... It's all perfect 🥺
Man I had to find your channel because the work and detail you put into this, wow. Truly amazing work mate, I have watched it so many times and I keep finding new details. Your creative interpretation of the situation was so vividly felt, truly a experience. Now I can't listen to H.S without watching the video, soo good!
Lanky, I was so damned happy when I saw you did another vid for Tom. Your designs for the planets are amazing, and that headturn for the Black Hole Lady is one of my favorite pieces of animation in the past years. Go on to shine bright, you crazy ass diamond!
I cannot stress enough how amazing you did with this vid, you just hit all the right spots: INCREDIBLE character designs, fun animation, fantastic posing, a great song to pull it all together. Probably beating a dead horse but the character designs for EVERY single one is SO good they all have such unique vibes to them despite having so many that only appear briefly. Absolutely fantastic and I'm so glad you worked so hard to make this real thank you homie
Was and is easily one of my favorite videos on the platform, seeing some of the process was a treat ^w^ Also tho u are so incredibly real for the "Programs" section 🔥

I get to see four of this video at the same time? That's a win.

Thank you for writing this out, I was wondering about Pluto's band mates and now I get the references!
I think the "a place the sun could not see" would be referring that light do not escape a blackhole, so they literally can't see it since there's no light to bounce off of it to be visible
It's so cool seeing a peek behind the curtain and all the lore and ideas you had in mind for these character designs. Fantastic work!
I love that you immediately add the joke on the first second by dressing our character in a Star Trek themed shirt during the "stops us in our track" lyrics. Fitting for the space guy, AND an extra joke.
I can't believe it took you eight months to make this, when I could watch it in just under four minutes.
Awesome work! Amazing how someone is able to do this, keep up the great work man!
Neat. The Rough Anim. Box is my favourite besides the end result.
Lanky, my man, your animations are one of the few things that keep me sane by being insanely great!
This is easily my most watched music video of the year, as I watched it like thrice a day the week it came out. You've made a fan out of me!
Stuff like this really helps us baby animators out!
this animation was top tier to match the extra top tier song
YESSSS!!! I was hoping you'd upload something like this, I love seeing all the work that goes into animating.

AMAZING BROOOOOOO ---- BIG MAHI !!!
SUPER inspiring to see the side by sides of all the work put into this!! Amazing work!
Love your h.s. video, especially with the black hole part 10/10 animation!
I'm so down bad for venus bro
Your evolution in animation is sick bro, thats amazing
the goat returns
your animation is on point .... i guess i have to sub to prove it !
love seeing the process!
so how did tom reach out to you about making the videos? I love that he supports independent animators like this
@@sambradley9091 He just hopped in the comment section on the Perception Check animatic. Heard someone say he's the patron saint of indie animators and I couldn't agree more
@LankyMF oh I meant moreso for HS! like if he just spawned back in your dms like "want a round 2?"
@@sambradley9091
That sounds very plausible.
Love it, cheers for all the hard work
the animation is super
Amazing job on this
good work 🙂👍
Love you!!!
Extra Nice 🎬
What was your method for designing the planets? Especially the moons of pluto
Hehe, I just brought up the wiki page for each planet's associated God and drew them as Australians
@ earth is a monkey god?
@feeble_goblin3764 Aah good catch, earth didn't have a Greek God so I made her a monkey because funny heehee
Fuck yeah! :)
Hii Lankymf (twirls my hair with my finger) heeehee
What
Holy crap Happy Chaos from Guilty Gear Strive!!! I'm being hounded by hot ppl!!!!?!
