*I'm deaf in my right ear which is why I'm not wearing headphones. I know, it's a bummer not to get the panning sounds. It's also been a bummer to only have one ear my whole life for lots of other reasons, like, playing telephone growing up, I was terrible at it. But, I'll be ok, and I'm getting both channels in the earbud, thanks for your concern :)

A: Always aiming paper airplanes at me when you're around
B: You build me up like building blocks just so you can bring me down
C: You can crush my candy cane but you'll never catch me cry
D: If you dangle that diploma and I dead, you dont be surprised
~
A: Apples aren't always appropriate apologizes
B: Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
C: You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
D: But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly and your dictionaries destroyed
I would throw my money if Melanie starts selling lyric books or poetry collections
That’s so cool
@@kayceemosely6586 I think she made a Crybaby storybook. I'm not sure. I know I saw art, and it's like a kids book basically telling the story of Crybaby
@@vastikaladelbarrio it came with the cd
It's called alliteration if anyone is interested
This song is so clever! It's about an ex-boyfriend/writing partner of hers who she felt was always condescending to her. Because he'd studied music and she hadn't he thought he was smarter than her. But in the song she's being condescending to him, calling him 'Alphabet Boy', saying "I know my ABCs, yet you keep teaching me, I say fuck your degree, Alphabet Boy" ... "you think you're smarter than me, with all your bad poetry" ... "you won the spelling bee, but are you smarter than me, you're just the prince of the playground Alphabet Boy". AND to illustrate her point that you don't need to study to be a good musician, she made a really clever song. The verses are like the sentences you have to write as a kid when you're learning letters. They use A words, B words, C words, then D words (apples aren't always appropriate apologies / butterscotch bubblegum bittersweet / child counting coins / daddy dolly dictionary destroyed)
Next is Soap/Training Wheels (Double Featured)
Fun fact: there was a video only for "Soap" but she thought it was not good, so she made the double featured and included part of the old video in a few moments in a TV during the video. :)
Didn't she made the soap video by herself cause her label didn't want to make the double feature but at the end they had to accept it?
@@perry12345671 Yes, she made the first "Soap" video with a camera that someone lent her
The lyrics are in alphabetical order.
Yea😇
ohnoitsanopinion yea, that was really smart
the 1 dislike is from the Alphabet Boy
Bongwater Nico lol so true I commented on that 😂
But now there's 5 dislikes... More accounts of alphabet boy...?
ok
The chorus is set up in an alliteration from A to D, "Apples aren't an always appropriate apologies"...etc.
The next song is Soap!! Don't react to the Soap only because it's not the correct video. Instead react to the one that is double feature with Training Wheels
Hey jersh there is actuly this book that melanie published that's four lines long for each song if you google it you will see what I mean (it can help understand the song moor)
*more
YES YES YES
Just commenting in hopes that Jersh sees this
The next are "Soap and Training Wheels" (DOUBLE FEATURE) Yohooo looking forward to it!❤
What I just realized, and i'm not sure if its intentional but The lyrics:
Line 1 in all A's-
Apples aren't an always appropriate apologies
Line 2 is B's-
Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
Line 3 is C's-
You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
Line 4 is all D's-
But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly
And your dictionary's destroyed
These lines go in the order of the alphabet, none of the other lines do this.
Alliteration, that's pretty obvious she did it intentionally, so she named it Alphabet boy. She's a genius when it comes to lyrics and metaphors
Alaina that’s not true, the first four lines do this too
@@tylersena6925 your right, I guess i misses that. thank you.
Don’t worry, it gets wayyyy crazier..
When you’re done with Crybaby, she has a few songs in between. Dead to Me, Bittersweet Tragedy, Gingerbread Man, Playdate, Bombs on Monday and Teddy Bear. That ends the Crybaby era. Next is Piggyback and Copycat, these are NOT related to Crybaby OR K-12. THEN it’s K-12. K-12 features an unreleased song called Fire Drill. Copycat came out after K-12 but goes side by side with Piggyback but wasn’t released at the same time. Piggyback and Copycat are EXTREMELY controversial, that’s a whole other can of worms, but it’s best to know about what you’re getting into. Piggyback and Copycat do not have anything to do with her albums, they are both about a personal issue she had and wrote songs about to cope and/or explain her side of the story. Yeah....it’s drama.
Copycat came after K-12, and it's gonna be on her next EP
Dead to me and bittersweet tragedy is before crybaby
Thanks for the replies, I kinda messed up the order a little lol. The Dollhouse EP was before Crybaby, where Bittersweet Tragedy and Dead to Me were, my bad!
Up next is the double feature "Soap/ Training wheels"
P.S Lorde has to be in the Sad Olympics. Particularly her album Melodrama. It's a masterpiece.
his reaction when Melanie almost stabbed the camera is everything
She made this song cause while she was at college, a guy (dont know there relation) told her how to make music even if she knew how to
Im so excited to see you watch K-12 the film if you decide to see her newer album
i lost it when you said "good job, king sh*it"
It's just jelly, Jersh. Just jelly.
Pain what did he think it was? 😬
@@Lee_.Writes 😂
I didn’t watch the video I commented before I watched it
THREE WORDS
I CAN'T WAIT
i clicked on this thinking it was the actual video. :< i got too excited
Aw I’m sorry! Hopefully u watch the premiere when it goes live so I can say I’m sorry again in chat! Lol
@@SuperJersh Definitely!
I love this song because of the alliteration used in the verses from A-D, I just thought it's a genius move and attention to detail
Jersh, I know we don't know each other but I think you're doing a great job.
Sad Olympics: Melanie, Lana, Marina, Billie, Adele
Kimbra - Plain Gold Ring (Sing Sing Studios live)
I love the fact she treat if grown up issues turned into childlike themes !
when you get to k-12 you should react to the whole movie! it's the whole album so i thought it would be fun:)
I literally don't subscribe to any channels but I really like your reactions. You are a quality youtuber. Subscribed.
Actually linking to the carousel music, she is talking with the boy from that video, who played with her, hypnosis her and was in a toxic relationship that she couldn’t get out (that’s why the end of the video is tied up with the start). She was sick of him saying what she had to do and chasing after him. As she grew up she realizes that she actually better than him
I can't wait for this!
I thought that she refers to him as “alphabet boy” because of his degrees:
( BachelorsBA/BA, Masters, PhD). Her verses are alliterations.
no one has noticed how the beginning of the song, us her using mostly words in order of A, B, C, & D. I like the play on words, ive always loved this song.
I know you see it at the end of every Melanie video....
When are we getting a K-12 reaction?
He said after this album
@@yoohyeonforever7067 👍👍👍
I’d say that “Carousel” is linked to the family through the fact that she doesn’t feel like she’s loved by her family and now she’s trying to latch onto this boy who keeps leading her on. She’s focusing all her love on this boy because she doesn’t have anyone else to love, yet he doesn’t love her back. He just sends her mixed signals. Hence why she goes “Round and round like a horse on a carousel”. She can never get the boy.
I always look forward to YOUR reactions because yours are so genuine and I love that it looks like you’re getting into her music :)
We just gotta keep asking lol. Can you react to her singing recess (preferably the acoustic version with the two harps) it's her newer song so you can hear how much its changed.
Soap/Training Wheels (Double Feature) is next.
Sad Olympics contestant: Robyn (dancing on my own, call your girlfriend or missing u )
Love it when you react to melanie can’t wait to see your next vid on her keep up the good work
I love your videos dude, for real NICE CONTENT ♡♡♡
loving this mel series!
Estrum - All I Need
Katatonia - My Twin
Anathema - Flying
I love your reactionsss, keep going!
Spot on analysis as usual.
In my opinion, we can see more meanings in one music video. I’ve been a MASSIVE fan of Melanie since I was 10-11 and now I’m 15 and I basically found new meanings over the years. I’m sorry if I made any mistakes but English isn’t my first language sooo...🤍🤍🤍
Yay! Can't wait. I'll be there for sure!! ❤
Basically as you can see cry baby is a character that well lives up to her name. She's very weak at the beginning wanting to have a better life but her problems never end. In this video her character is actually developing getting smarter and stronger and doesn't cry as much as she used to
1st verse
A- ALWAYS AIMING paper AIRPLANES AT me when you're around
B- you BUILD me up like BUILDING BLOCKS just so you can BRING me down
C- you CAN CRUSH my CANDY CANE but you'll never CATCH me CRY
D- if you DANGLE that DIPLOMA and I DEAD you DON'T be surprised
2nd verse
A- APPLES AREN'T ALWAYS APPROPRIATE APOLOGIES
B- BUTTERSCOTCH and BUBBLEGUM drops are BITTERSWEET to me
C- you CALL me a CHILD while you keep COUNTING all your COINS
D- but you're not my DADDY and I'm not your DOLLY and your DICTIONARY'S DESTROYED
Basically...she's a genius
Soap 🧼 is my favorite Melanie song, my other is Recess from K-12 but I’m enjoying following along with your reactions
YESSS FINALLY
I love his reactions
Evertime i watch this video, the scene where shes got the knife, makes me think of her mom and how shes acting like her.
You have to react to the double features together, remember that! Great reaction, you got everything she tried to tell with this song!
I can't wait for the next video
Alphabet Boy has a PhD, Jersh. LETTERS after his name.
The lyrics are based on alphabet that's wonderful and my fav song in crybaby album too😣😍
When you open ur eyes is so cute
This song is actually about a relationship that Melanie had and the guy she was with told her that she didn't write music properly and she wrote a song about it.
Two fun facts ! :
1.In the lyrics (except for in the chorus) it goes from a to d
2. This song was made on a low budget
(Next is Soap/ Training wheels double feature)
“Spell my name on the fridge now, with all your alphabet toys” is a massive “watch me make something better out of what you showed me” to her ex
Soap's next! that's hella bop and meaningful!...looking forward to your next reaction....
You should react to some of Joji's songs for the sad olympics
I would suggest starting with "Slow dancing in the dark"
For the sad Olympics Ingrid Michaelson- Be okay
Love the alliteration in this song.
Idk if u noticed or someone mentioned it but each of her main verses or stanza before the chorus are alliterative with mostly words with As then next stanza Bs then Cs then Ds then the chorus so that’s neato lol
YEEEEASS I was waiting for that
The song is about a boy she dated in college who told her that she was writing music wrong and tried to "teach" how to do it right so she got really mad about it. So this the name, Alphabet boy
Can’t wait for you to get to tag you’re it and milk and cookies!
Klone - Immersion
Emptyself - Just Go On
Cire - Brand X Misery
Can't wait for Jersh to react to Pity Party and Tag You're It/Milk And Cookies.
Soap/training wheels nexttt
Hi I'm here
Cascada - Can’t Stop The Rain
Lyrics
How How Am I Supposed To You When Everything Surrounding Me Is Nothing But A Fake Disgust I Don’t Know I Don’t Know Where Where I Belong It’s Time For Me To Carry On I’ll Say Goodbye
Chorus. I Can’t Stop The Rain From Falling I’m Drowning In This Tears I Cry Since You Left Without Warning I Face The Dawn With Sleepless Eyes No Can’t Go On When Clouds Are Pushing Down On Me Boy I Can’t I Can’t Stop The Rain From Falling
Verse 2
So Tell Me Boy Where I Went Wrong I’m Stuck Inside Dream Long Gone Its Hard Reveal The Truth Your Love It’s Nothing But A Better Taste It’s Better If I Walk Away Away From You
I Can’t Stop The Rain Falling I’m Drowning In Tears I Cry Since You Left Without Warning A Face The Dawn With Sleepless Eyes No Can’t Go On When The Clouds Are Pushing Down On Me Boy I Can’t Stop I Can’t Stop The Rain From Falling
“Good job, King Shit. You’re Lord of the Morons. Congratulations.” SENT ME
someone probably already told you.. but hey.. I cant be bothered to scroll through all of them and more comments about the same thing helps to make sure you see the message.
this song was also written about her ex boyfriend, he was in music school and claimed that she wouldn't never be as good as him because she didnt have 'a diploma' in music and tearing her down.alot of her songs she sings about real life but that also at the same time is in the crybaby story, which I think is genius, how many artists can do that?
Don’t forget it’s an alliteration
YESSSSS
The next song is Soap!! Don't react to the Soap only because it's not the correct video. Instead, react to the one that is a double feature with Training Wheels'
Btw fun how you didn't realize that the lyrics are in alphabet order fx. A = Always gaming paper airplanes at me when you're around. B = you build me up like building blocks just so you can bring me down.
Good job, really enjoying these videos!!
at 8:57 and so on i realized it was alteration
Apples aren't an always appropriate apologies
Butterscotch and bubblegum drops are bittersweet to me
You call me a child while you keep counting all your coins
But you're not my daddy and I'm not your dolly
And your dictionary's destroyed
When she says fuck your degree all I can think of is the Masons. Like she’s a higher degree mason lol. She would too she’s full of herself in a good way and protective of her expression.
4:31 I found this hilarious XD “Bang bang. You got me.”
Lol thx for watching :)
Lissie - Hero
Delerium - Innocente
Lolly Jane Blue - White Swan
I havent followed the story so I can only give my opinion of the song as a stand alone. The verses are very catchy and the whole sing along aspect of the song is hilarious. Liked the lyrics and am in limbo because she's cute and terrifying simultaneously. I haven't seen a perfect personification of crazy eyes as I have seen in her lol

Super Jersh- can you react to Sia either Chandelier or Elastic heart- and nominating this for sad olympics
you should try a song by the band Cursive "Excerpts From Various Notes Strewn Around The Bedroom Of April Connolly, Feb 24, 1997"
I'm pretty sure the song is about Melanie getting told how to write songs by this boy in university
Sarah Blasko - All I Want
I’m hyped for the sad olympics.
Please consider the Dutch/Kurdish singer called Naaz for the sad olympics!! Her songs usually are sad but kinda cheerful, please check her out! ^^
