The muffin who is suicidal saved your life , the irony is strong with this one.
Oh how the turntables
Lol
I know. It's great isn't it?
Also. Wasn't expecting to see you here but not surprised
luckily.
the muffin will die for Tom.
"Does he even have a concept of morality? He'll learn one"
that sounds like a threat

It's true, children hold too much power. They scare me.
Hey man, I really enjoyed talking with you! It was really interesting to recap the story of Mr. Muffin, great video!

Not gonna lie, I'm surprised you aren't verified! Hopefully that'll change soon
You're turning out to be a fine young man, and have amazing voice talent. I wish you nothing but the best. Live out your dreams with your opportunities, and for the love of god and all that is holy, please don't let becoming a celebrity change who you are. Thank you Catbug.
That's so weird...
Catbug is not a little kid now. Wow.
(I googled and he is like two years younger than me. How?..)
I'm surprised that the Mom agreed for letting her 7 to 8 year old to say proudly "Why won't you let me die!"

The sketch group Whitest Kids You Know wrote a lot of sketches involving kids trying to bush the envelope to see how far they could go before parents wouldn't let their kids be in the sketches. Parents never told them no.
I love how you can tell when Tom is joking, and when he’s being serious just from his voice
IT HAS BEEN AN HONOUR (an honor, but british) to be involved in the story of Mr. Muffin. Although I have to say, he was a diva in the studio and couldn't stop reminding me that he was the #1 most famous muffin, even more famous than muffin men (who are not muffins, but servants to their muffins). Thanks for the virtual hang, I'm calling Kehinde Wiley right now to commission some platinum muffin art 🙏 🎨
Honour my good chap, truly a marvel.
great
I'm surprised these dont have very many replies

Its muffin time
Imagine calling someone’s mum to ask her to record her child saying suicidal things

No

Bah they're Americans, that didn't phase them one bit
He’s a voice actor
I remember being at a really dark place in my life when this song came out. I wasn't part of the tik tok trend as I too am incredibly easily distracted. But honestly this song when it was on soundcloud, the only app that my parental block bricked phone had, made me smile. It was catchy and it had a message at the end I could really feel, although a lot different than Tom's perspective, the lyrics were really important to me.
Thanks Tom for all the content, it's been a wild ride
The song didn't only save Tom it saved For Fall too
Good job Tom 👍
If he ever stops doing videos, i gonna be sad. He is one of the best content creators we have in the entire internet
Tom said he had a god-son, therefore Thomas "TomSka" Ridgewell is, techinically: The Godfather
Tomska to tictok: Look what they did to my boy.
@@RaulDiaz-mp8ms what? You mean dik cok?
Pretty sure his god-son is Rik, Eddie's lil boy
Yeah, Rik's his godson. You can see it in The Last Week where Tom says *"I'm a god now..."*
He's gonna go see the people who make platinum records and make them an offer they can't refuse

Because Tom has a highly refined sense of comedic delivery. Almost as though he truly realized the category error in real time - probably why I chuckled most.

Its not a more famous muffin but another famous muffin is:
Someone baked a hamster in to my muffin
In my personal opinion, the 2018 muffin song is the magnum opus of all of the Tomska songs. It just sounds so good, its one of those kinds of things that don't get old, even after hundreds of thousands of replays.
Also can we appreciate how he reached out to the tik tok girl who was totally harassed for being “cringe”? She did not deserve all that hate I’m glad he’s supporting her
The fact that she knew about it before TikTok, I'm on her side
I bet loads of those people were like "I bet she doesn't even know who Tomska is" 🙄🙄🙄
I mean, even now I really don't understand the appeal, but to each their own, still doesn't warrant straight up harassment of a person.
It was an odd video, and nowadays odd = cringe rather than what it should be, odd = charm
While I did think the Video was a bit cringy,I do think it's just godawful to harrass someone because of that, she didn't even do anything wrong
The muffin that wanted to die, did die, metaphorically, and yet saved many others.
just like jesus
@@hayconsecuencias ...That makes too much sense. Tom said in What is the best asdfmovie joke? that he's God in the asdfmovie universe, so if he's the God that controls the universe, then Mr. Muffin is the Jesus that died for the asdfmovie universe's sins.

Not sure if any one will see this but neat little update, the muffin song I believe has gone platinum with over 130 million 'sales' (over 200 million streams). I just think that this is super neat and love seeing Tom grow such success since he has more then earned it through his over a decade of hard work.
Honestly, i think is pretty amazing how recognisable you are. Almost everyone i meet either knows you, or has seen your work.

"I'm just excited you want to do something creative with my thingy" -Tomska, 2020
Good quote Tomska

Bro, never thought I would be watching a documentary on a suicidal muffin. But a lovable suicidal muffin none the less.
This video was way more interesting than I thought it would be. I love stuff like this and I love you Tom
Nice to see someone actually explain their depressive issues -- in this case suicidal ideation. Most people just say "I was feeling abit down" which to me either feels disingenuous or like their just labeling listlessness as depression.
I personally have SI, and the thing people rarely get is the difference between it and intent. But ya, my brain just hates existance, but I'm also too spiteful to let it win -- that's the way I can best explain it.
i hope your okay
“Directile disfunction”

Maybe he doesn't wanna die anymore knowing what he's done.
Thank you for making this and telling this story. As someone who also suffers from depression and suicidal ideation, this gave me some hope for my future. I've always looked up to you and found you so hilarious, your videos brought light to my darkest times and I am so grateful for that. This video really puts it in perspective and made me feel not quite so alone. Thank you :)

Honestly tom, thats why im scared to sleep at night. The constant thoughts of suicides, i dont want them but i dont see myself in a good way. My cope though is playing games like mc and letting myself make things that others can appreciate.
Haven't heard this song in a while. Glad this came up in recommended. This is really cool to see! Seeing like behind the scenes. Love ya Tomska! Keep up the good work! 👍
Now Imma go listen to this song.
ASDF movie has always been a show that I can truly see the creative process behind, and I respect that. Thanks Tom!
I hope Tom never stops doing youtube because of stats telling him he's not as popular as he was years back. We like your stuff, Tom, so as long as you enjoy doing this, please do. That's all that matters imo
The original Muffin Time with the guitar and synths are simply amazing, I hope that they get released in full someday
The Muffin Man was very much a muffin. It’s right there in the lyrics: “Girl, you thought he was a man, but he was a muffin.”
I didn't know this muffin was voice acted by a child. What a fool I was...
SAME
I guess I just thought that he wouldn't have a kid shouting "I WANNA DIE", Lol
How? It’s very obvious
I thought it was some person using a voice changer
SAME I thought it was just a regular man who just said kill meeee
So I emailed and asked: "Hey! Can I have an 8 year old come to your studio and scream about wanting to die?"
Imagine getting THAT email...
I’d be very concerned about it
I’d be concerned but glad I could get someone to ask that instead of having to find it 😀
i mean it was Dick Figures they've probably had weirder
I just want to say that Version 2 of the song (15:31) was very VERY good.
I really liked it a lot, and I feel like it could have even had the potential to match the success of the one that was released. It just had a great flow and feel to it. :)
Version 3 also sounded pretty interesting.
Both had great concepts and unique feel.
It gets me that Sam's mom went along with the suicidal muffin thing
Tomska's videos make me smile everytime while i'm going through depression. I'm pretty sure that more people have it worse than me so let me tell you this.
It will be alright. And I love you
i bet this muffin, and comments like yours keeps him going :)

I hope that you will continue to find the strenght to keep going, i've been here for a while and i can say that you are someone who is passionate about his job, please keep giving voices to those awesome characters, they helped more than one person. Thanks for doing what you do Tom. Amazing videos.
