    The two things I love about the tom cardy song that I don't know if you noticed is how when he snaps you hear a ticking time bomb and then an explosion, and also the joke when he says "relieve that nasty sting for you" and he's eating asparagus with the intent of pissing on him
    Just two things I thought were funny

    As per usual, all Tom Cardy songs revolve around something happening to him and him making a song out of it.

  • @animatorFan74
    @animatorFan74 Рік тому +140

    7:26 - in case you didn't get this reference, when he says "I'll help relieve that nasty sting for you", it's a commonly held belief if you pee on a jellyfish sting on someone, it will negate the effects of the sting (I think the belief has since been proven wrong, though)
    So, he guzzles the Gatorade bottle down (so he has enough pee) and eats asparagus so when he pees, his pee will smell horrible, just to make the Dad's day even worse. :P
    Yet more comedy gold nuggets from Tom. :)

    I just so happen to have a lime shirt that is similar to the old shop uniform. It doesn't have a badge or anything, just similar, but I get stopped so many times.
    They'll ask " Excuse me, uhh, where is..."
    "Sorry, I don't work here."
    "Oh, I just saw the shirt and..."
    "Yes, I know."

    Hi, I've yet to view the whole video, so you may well remember the name of the instrument later in it, but just in case: the name of the instrument that looks like the result of an unholy matrimony between a bagpipe and a piano is the melodica 🙂

      To be fair you can appreciate that joke more only if you know that bluebottle is how the man-of-war jellyfish is called in Australia. So of course the asparagus-eating and pissing is related to the bluebottle sting

    Have you ever thought about looking at older comedy music songs? Like Tom Lehrer or Allan Sherman? Or if you want music videos to look at, more recent stuff like Axis of Awesome or the Key of Awesome's stuff?

    • @Insaneian
      @Insaneian  2 роки тому +7

      The thing is, I've already heard/seen most of that before I started this show. I have all of Tom Lehrer's albums, and I've heard most of Allan Sherman's stuff too. I even had checked out most of Axisnof Awesome and Key of Awesome's stuff before they both stopped. If there ever is something older I've missed I'll check it out here if I can, but usually this show is for new stuff...or at least new to me.

    Never heard of these guys but im pretty oblivious to most non nerd core things, nice thing about randomly watching your vids when im bored xD, speaking of nerd core though you may like mettaton medley by man on the internet, makes more sense if you know parts of undertale(or watch his musical series in full) but you dont 100% need to in order to enjoy it, this might be the most comedic song out of his undertale the musical lineup but its also probably one of my personal favs. ua-cam.com/video/egwmc6E2r04/v-deo.html (and if you so happen to want to react to his full undertale the musical I suggest using the full length one he put together and either streamin it or snipping it up, since it has songs that were takin down for copyright issues for some reason(Berguntrukin, metal crusher, and one other I forget) but thats enough of my essay- Have a nice day Ian.
