  • In Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons you are once more tasked with guiding a gaggle of fuzzy friends to prosperity via the medium of hunting for insects, gathering seashells and making polite conversation.
    It's certainly not something I'd typically make a song about... Until someone pointed out to me that you are beholden to a corrupt capitalist raccoon! Sure he SAYS all that money goes to an orphanage... But can he PROVE it?
    To those of you hoping for the Doom Eternal song I had been teasing, sadly the project has been delayed. But it is on the way! With the unprecedented global situation right now, the video shoot had to be cancelled. I'm currently working on adapting the video into something I can make from home with my more limited space and equipment.
    It's a scary world out there right now. Stay safe and make good choices everyone. We'll get through it.

    LYRICS:
    They say of the fable that businessmen croon
    That dog may eat dog but he pays the raccoon
    Filling up the coffers billing up the otters, watching them squirm
    Yes lions and tigers and bears owe my firm
    I've made mountains from founding these half-finished villages
    Rundown little towns that I fill up with idiots
    Declare one the mayor, flare their ego a little bit
    Charge them with fixing it then charge for the privilege
    You buy land at high deposit when I drop profitable hovels on it
    Each island is like a wallet ‘cus I got the whole place in my pocket
    You crank the land value with every little bit of spit and polish
    If I get a better tenant than you, well thank you, everything’s demolished
    It's about time I took some more payments from your good selves
    I'm just balancing the books but I'm still waiting on the bookshelves
    You promised you'd build me once you'd patched the fence
    Don't like it? Then bill me, I'll just add it to the rent.
    Never seen a game so twee
    But there's administration fees
    For this little haven we
    Chiselled from complacency
    And we pay it gratefully
    Slaving every day for the
    Price tag attached to the back
    Of our New Horizon
    Raccoon in a tie that racked up a tycoon
    Can't handle my mess? You'd best stick with Splatoon.
    You'll be knee deep in seashells before we hit noon
    And that's hardly a dent in the debt you've accrued
    You may wonder why we keep moving around
    The houses you buy aren't that structurally sound
    A few years will lapse, they collapse to the ground
    And these suckers cough up for another new tow
    You call me amoral? Is that what you think?
    Well at least I’ve not driven my assistant to drink
    Poor dear little Isabelle is caught in a living hell
    It's fishing and yard work not building a citadel
    Overworked, underpaid, that poor little Shih Tzu
    Managing a bunch of animals, I guess it really is a-
    I Guess you see the pun there
    Some mayor you turned out to be, if I do say so
    How fitting, in a town full of critters the only human's the scapegoat
    Never seen a game so twee
    But there's administration fees
    For this little haven we
    Chiselled from complacency
    And we pay it gratefully
    Slaving every day for the
    Price tag attached to the back
    Of our New Horizon
    Extortion has seldom been so inoffensive
    No matter the tax and whatever the rent is
    They flock and they herd just to pay their expenses
    With no picket lines 'cept a few garden fences
    Read between the lines and you might find the margins
    So eat up the jargon, don’t argue the bargains
    Or I’ll add a ‘No Pets’ clause, it wouldn’t be hard and
    I’ll have every resident live in the garden
    Never seen a game so twee
    But there's administration fees
    For this little haven we
    Chiselled from complacency
    And we pay it gratefully
    Slaving every day for the
    Price tag attached to the back
    Of our New Horizon

    I know this song isn't one of your newest anymore, but I came to say that I think it contains my favourite line that you've ever performed. I know it's not technically impressive or challenging like some of your others, but this one just sticks in my head like glue.
    "Or I’ll add a ‘No Pets’ clause, it wouldn’t be hard
    and I’ll have every resident... live... in the garden!"
    It has such a gleeful malice and is almost mad-with-power in the delivery, such effective dramatic pauses, and of course is set up perfectly to rhyme with 'yard' only to switch to garden like the little yorkshire critter he is. I lost it the first time I heard this part of the song, and every time I've listened since I still get a big dumb grin on my face. Thank you

      I’d just like to point out that narcissistic personality disorder, or “narcissism” is a mental disorder generally stemming from low self esteem and isn’t a choice for people who do have the disorder, and there are multiple forms of narcissistic personality disorder beyond just seeing one’s self as better or above others.
      (Obviously) mental disorders aren’t to be used as an insult towards people just because they have traits that may appear as symptoms of said disorder, but I assume you understand that.
      Of course the whole reason I write so many comments like this is to spread awareness that narcissistic personality disorder is a disorder, not just a trait, even though media generally portrays it as such, so I don’t fault you or the countless others who assumed that or used “narcissism” as an insult.
      Just wanted to let you know :)

      Narcissism can be a trait and a disorder. NPD (narcissistic personality disorder) is defined as a pathological level of narcissism, but one can be narcissistic without necessarily having NPD, usually called destructive narcissism, not to the level of pathological but more extreme than what could be considered “normal” or healthy.
      The way OP used narcissistic is grammatically and clinically correct.

    • @Froggycolouring
      @Froggycolouring 8 місяців тому +3

      @@IdkLmao-vp5ss using narcissism in that way however can lead to hurting people who have the disorder, causing people to misdiagnose themselves or others
      One cannot be narcissistic without have NPD as it is a disorder, its like saying someone can be autistic without having autism, its simply incorrect.
      What you mean(I assume) would be the stereotype and most commonly seen in media for NPD which would just be seeing oneself as better than others and being selfish overall, but in that case just use that instead.

    The chorus is my absolute favorite part of this song. It shows the residents' suffering and especially the first part of the chorus' with the five residents happy in the first chorus, pleading in the second Chorus, and how Tom Nook COMPLETELY takes over the final Chorus, replacing some lyrics, and changing the sound of some of the beat. This song goes hard and even without the rest of the song and just the chorus this would still be on repeat (and the rest of the song goes hard too)

    This line.
    *This line.*
    The simple joy of selling shells from the beach as a little in-game pleasure, shifts to the image of a villager or the mayor on their knees in the sand, scrabbling desperately for any resource that'll pay well enough to free them from the burden of debt, and yet it's never enough.
    You imagine them raking through the grains with blistered fingers, picking up a shell fragment and staring at it with a glimmer of hope, that maybe it'll be valuable, maybe it'll alleviate the weight of the threat lurking over them, but closer examination reveals that their efforts were futile, just like everyone else's.

You could go all game not paying additional fees on your houses, and there is nothing this guy can do about it. He doesn’t even give you a set time to pay it by! Heck, he found two raccoon kids on the street, then adopted and taught them how to do business so they never ended up on the street again.
