also, just a little explanation (spoilers for people who don't already know the plot): wilbur's character died after blowing up the nation, and he came back as a character called ghostbur. while ghostbur existed, the original wilbur was in limbo at the train station from the album cover of your city gave me asthma, the album of sad wilbur songs you've listened to before. dream's character used a book called the revive book on ghostbur in a desperate attempt to regain some power while locked away in prison, sending ghostbur to the limbo and bringing wilbur back to life. the song revived is from the point of view of revivebur, the line 'you should see the other guy' referencing ghostbur and the pain he's in as wilbur returns to the living. ghostbur was a beloved and wholesome character and definitely a fan favourite, so the idea of him being in pain is obviously heartbreaking. this song, revived, has all the train sound effects and station related lyrics linking to that story arc, and the anger shows the unpredictability of wilbur's character, as we've seen what he's capable of with the blowing up of l'manburg, and now that he's back we have no way of knowing if his claims of having changed are true or not. you probably just didn't need that whole paragraph but for anyone wondering, there's a bit of a long winded explanation :)
Thank you so much that is I believe the clearest way of explaining everything you need to know about the story to enjoy the song while keeping it simple
Mat: "I'm assuming some war happened on the Dream smp." Me: *puts cup of water down* "which one?" Also, a good song to react to would be "Blink of an eye" by winks. It is a dream smp song and I love it.
@@Animallover24678 You’re absolutely right… the most well-known ones, also the wars for L’Manburg, we’re the first ones that showed up in my head- but also the fact that there’s been more than one gets me thinking-
Im genuinely surprised that at this point he still doesnt know the dreamsmp lore... i mean he gets the story bc of the songs but i think he would be a lot more impressed with the lyrics and the sounds that these artists like derivakat put in the background and all of the meanings and little references...
When Wilbur died in the lore he went to his 'limbo' which was the Train station from Your City gave Me Asthmas cover art. Time moved differently there, which was only a few months for us, it was 13 years for him. And when Dream killed Ghostbur (Wilbur's ghost which took his place when Wilbur went to his limbo) and revived Wilbur, he came back basaas as ever, as 'Revivebur' who was thirsty for blood. Keep in mind kids. This is all from a minecraft server.
Fun fact! The "siren" noise in the background of REVIVED is actually Derivakat vocalizing!! She wanted a sound there but she could find a good one, so she did it herself :)
@@WhiteFang-fy2rg sadly i dont know/remember, but they should still be up on her twitch if it was streamed!! if not, she did it off stream. i just know that she did the siren herself by vocalizing :))
Day 2 of asking Mathew to react to the soundtrack of Centaurworld, the new musical show on netflix. It's very very good, I picked out the songs that aren't spoilery, so they're safe to listen to without context. Rider's Lullaby Centaurworld Hello Rainbow Road Taurnado Fragile Things The Nowhere King (I recommend just listening to the audio when you go over this one, because while it's not spoilers, the scene will be more impactful when/if you eventually watch the show) I shall keep asking until it happens, i'm that determined.
I'm pretty sure that the train in the background in Revived is a reference to the whole revival thing like a train from 'hell' bringing Wilbur back to the real world, or like his hell/limbo being a train station... I'm not 100% sure though
The interesting and impressive thing is that she is able to tell a story or go for a feeling, and people get it. Like, Mathew knows next to nothing about the Dream SMP, yet he can understand that there is a war, backstabbing, betrayal, etc. all from her music.
Yeah, if you are planning on reacting to any more smp animatics, you should do late_august! They are by far my favorite animators and they include so many details in it.
You all love him a lot, and idk if you’re on Instagram, but he’s not going to post for a long time if ever again. But yes he should watch his videos I think!
Doomsday is actually written from the point of view of the people doing the destroying. They were/felt betrayed so they took their revenge by destroying everything.
“Its sounds like if an anime villain rapped over top of a Corpse Husband produced song” This...this is the best description of Revived ive ever heard...
I feel like REVIVED is better in the lyric video because the visuals really add a lot, you should check it out. On second thought, the art in the Why music video adds a lot as well.
@@kayleekirkpatrick9193 I know I’m saying he could do a video similar to when he reacted to “georgenotfound only fan” as in that video he reacted to a range of songs which Wasn’t related to each other.
In terms of production for Revived almost all of the sounds you hear are train sound samples apart from the vocals and maybe the synth. Also the 'siren' you heard was Derivikat going 'WooWoooooooo' and adding reverb XD
going back to when you reacted to sadist there's another channel that i think is criminally underrated, their channel is late-august and they do really detailed animatics that i think would be nice to react to :)
She has a college degree in musical theory if I remember. And Will's limbo was a train platform that he experienced for 13 years (in his time) before his revival, -> the train noises & visuals. Fun fact, she made the siren noises herself because she couldn't find any she liked
About the song Why "Cant stand the rain, cant stand the pain" This of course is about how ghostbur melts in the rain and forgets negative things But also during doomsday(s) (it was more than a day) it was raining
Fun fact: That siren in the background at the end of Revived is Derivakat screaming into her microphone while her brother was in the same house because she couldn't find a siren sound to use. It was really funny to watch live on stream.
His reaction to Revived as a non-fan of the DSMP and Derivakat was like on the same level as what we had and I find that so funny to me. Revived is a certified bop
Doomsday was actually always impeding, but it took a new meaning when Tommy betrayed Technoblade. Before, it was a means to end corruption and also a form of vengeance. But after Tommy's betrayal, it was interpreted as a warning, a message saying: This is what happens when you break my trust. Had Tommy not switched sides, the exact same events would've happened, maybe if postponed, but it would have a completely different meaning.
@@humairamaster9498 Yeah, everyone is a c!techno apologist, so not a lot of people point that out lol. but I definitely agree. I do realize that Tommy was sort of just using Techno from the very beginning, but Techno went too far. What he did was much worse than what Tommy did. I *am* a c!Philza apologist though- I make excuses for Phil, like Phil really just wanted to get rid of the government because he thought it corrupted people, like Wilbur. but blowing it up... I mean, tbf, it wasn't Phil's idea to blow it up in the beginning. When Techno and Dream decided that's what they were going to do though, he just went with them. But I do really feel like I'm just making excuses for him because I like Phil lol
i got so excited when you reacted to REVIVED it's literally the BEST Dsmp song EVER ! ( not just because it's about Wilbur's dream smp character and he's one of my favs haha- ) the song is actually so good! Derivakat nailed it as always :D !
I will never understand how he gets the story almost exact, while vague, just by listening to the songs. I already know the story, and listening to the songs back I can understand from my end, but seeing as he's never actually looking into the Dream SMP lore, that we know of, and him getting this stuff so accurate is freaking amazing.
The trio you were talking about tells the story of Doomsday, aka the Third (Final) Destruction of L'Manberg. Doomsday is about how Dream, Philza, and Technoblade blow up the nation, and Why is the ghost of the founder Wilbur Soot, Ghostbur, lamenting how Phil broke his promise and how Ghostbur keeps having to pay for the mistakes of others
Day 3 Could you react to Little Nightmares fandoms songs? Like: Hungry for another one by JtMusic Nightmare by ChewieCatt Mono by Rockit Gaming, ChewieCatt Two: A little nightmares 2 song by Random Encounters
fun fact! that siren at the end of revived isnt an actual siren sound, its actually derivakat! she couldnt find the exact siren noise she wanted, so she made it herself!
I love watching you try to piece the story together with just music :3 most people who react to dsmp songs are already totally familiar with the story, and it just kind of cheapens it to me for some reason? Haha idk I just love that about your videos
I so want him to get into the story, he'd appreciate the songs even more than he does now! Even if he doesn't do a video on it, he should check different lore videos out
The only Derivakat song I'd heard so far is Revived since it's been blowing up lately but oh my god I need to listen to more of her songs apparently, HOLY SHIT her music sounds gorgeous
Definitely needed this video, Mathew is just so funny,, I'm so glad I've found ur videos, they truly make my day every time. Love hearing ur opinions and seeing ur reactions ♡ :D
I’m gonna be completely honest. I lost my mind and jumped around my living room when you said you listened to the decemberists. They are some of my favorites as well, and I even went to a concert of theirs. So. Thanks I guess.
Hiya Mathew!! It’s over a year later now, and I think it would be *awesome* if you were to re-listen to these songs, because now that you know a good portion of the lore they would hit SO much harder, and understanding the lyrics just makes these songs even more phenomenal
I really like the fact that you don't know much about the plot for dsmp because we get to see how Derivakat's music holds, for people ouside of dsmp, story wise. Though I suggest watching the video for Revived bc the art for it makes the song 100x better. Love the videos!
Derivikat actually did a stream 2 days ago, where she was making one of her own originals, and not dsmp song, called Eden (I might have spelled that wrong) And let me tell you... That song was awsome! And it wasn't even the finished version. Basically the song is about how your dating this guy, and he just doesn't get it. And its kinda a reference to the biblical story of adam and eve, but with a twist. When the full song is released, you'll definitely have to listen carefully bc for most of the stream she was recording some harmonies and some background sounds, that you'll really have to listen carefully to even hear it. Like, you know how musicians and basically anyone who works with music can hear really well and identify lots of things that ppl who don't work with music probably wouldn't pick up the first time? It's basically like that. One of the things derivikat said on stream about the song: "I don't smoke, but if I did, I'd probably listen to this song because like, it feels so free/ stress relieving" (I can't remember exactly what she said, but it was very similar to this. I remember her saying she doesn't smoke) So yhea, the song is very angelic like. Here's the Vod from the stream: www.twitch.tv/derivakat/v/1134383797?sr=a It's also great to listen to this in the background bc it's so calming. I'm sorry I made an entire paragraph, but I've just been obsessed with this song and it isn't even out yet. I've rewatched the stream 2 times already. My favorite part in the song from the stream: I'm pretty sure this is apart of the bridge btw: ' kick him out of paradise finally he'll realize To by to to 'pologize (I couldn't really make that part out) To edan, (I might be spelling edan wrong I'm sorry) Let the sky be filled with light Heal the scars and bloom with life Leave me here and I'll reside to edan ' (And of course there's some other small background sounds, there's also a riff somewhere) I don't wanna spoil the song here so again, if you want, search up Derivakat on twitch and the last stream she had, which is accessible to rewatch, is that. The stream title is: recording a song new emotes! !software !socials
The way you were startled when Revived Started XD, the Train Sounds Are part of the Dream SMP Lore, Wilbur had been dead and his Limbo was a Train Station
FUN FACT: the siren in the background of revived near the end was derivakat! she couldn't find one that she liked so she just decided to make her own with her vocals! also i recommend watching the lyric video for revived it adds so much more to the atmosphere
So, Night before dawn is about the L'manberg revolution, which happened in early to mid-august last year- which was the forming of L'manberg and its separation from the Dream SMP Doomsday is about the event called Doomsday on the server where Philza, Technoblade, and Dream teamed up, destroying New L'manberg (after it was blown up by Wilbur, the former president of L'manberg). The reason why they were destroying it was because Philza was forced to kill Wilbur (his son), and blamed the government for Wilbur's descent into madness, Techno destroyed it because he's an anarchist and was betrayed by the government multiple times, and was even almost executed by New L'manbergs government, and Dream has always been adamant of L'manberg's destruction because it went against the main rules of the server before his own descent into madness. Why is immediately after Doomsday from Ghostbur, Wilbur's ghost, POV, because Philza destroyed something that Wilbur, and Ghostbur both loved (Wilbur and Ghostbur are 2 separate entities, but share similar memories).
Ok.. “night before dawn” it’s definitely the most Symbolic of all the songs here, and it definitely takes priority with translating the lore over the song itself. It’s supposed to be telling Wilbur soots Fall from grace into corruption. He’s trying to act like the revolutionary he once was to rally his men but he’s clearly loosing faith in the cause. The lyrics do it wonderfully but the song itself lacks because of it
I'd love to join your SMP but as a Xbox One player, I tried entering the code and it said I needed the owners permission. I don't know if this is just my device or something since I've never joined a realm world, so if any type of help can be told that be appreciated! ^^
If you want to know the full story of the dream SMP I recommend “Even mcc gaming” ( I can not spell sorry) he does a great summery of the story and is a brilliant story teller.
“I feel like I’m ready to charge in to battle” the whole dsmp fandom: 😐😐😐 “I’m gonna say the dumbest thing I’ve ever said but this sounds dark” the whole dsmp fandom: 😑😑😑 *realizes the songs about betrayal* the whole dsmp fandom: 😶😶😶
The story: Night before dawn: Perparing for the war Doomsday:The war Why: The ghost of the man who built the thing which got destroyed Revived: The ghost is revived
...sometimes i genuinely forget that you haven't actually WATCHED any of the dsmp alsfdkjalskjdflaksdfj because there's an event actually called 'doomsday' that happened--dream, techno, and philza teamed up and blew up new l'manburg (it's what both 'doomsday' and 'why' are based off of-- doomsday is from the doomsday trio's pov ('all corrupted, so corrupted refers to new l'manburgs government and the butcher army specifically (i believe you watched sad-ist's hog hunt? that was about the butcher army)) and 'why' is based off of ghosbur's pov (the ghost of wilbur soot, who was incapable of remembering anything upsetting and was arguably made as a satire about people who shared his same views,) who lived in (and liked) new l'manburg and was actually literally incapable of understanding why anybody would want to blow it up)
Thanks for being here y’all 💙 I appreciate you existing. I hope to see you on the minecraft server!!
please react to “happier than ever” by Billie Eilish!!!! Pls!!!

"It feels like I'm listening to an anime villain rap over a CORPSE Husband-produced song" I have never heard a more accurate description of Revived
BROO YEAHHH
Bro I can easily imagine Corpse rapping Revived. If everything was heavier, it would be just up his alley

Fun fact: The sirens in Revived were Derivakat herself cause she couldn't find the ones she wanted!

Thank you so much for typing this out so I didnt have to! (I was so close to doing it too)

Right after "Revived" dropped, *the Discord went banana.*
This comment is so true-
Not only the Discord, the whole Dream SMP fandom that hears Derivakat songs (Which hope its everyone but ok)
I made art for it and that looked sick too, it makes everything good
Ah yes
*it went a single banana*
when the discord goes 1 single banana
“Obviously it’s about a war in a Minecraft server” no spoilers, only corrections, wars, plural
yup
Mat: "I'm assuming some war happened on the Dream smp."
Me: *puts cup of water down* "which one?"
Also, a good song to react to would be "Blink of an eye" by winks. It is a dream smp song and I love it.
PREACH
(and Wings and Til the End by the same artist)
yes...theres like 10+ wars :)
Lmao I'm deqd
HAHA True
@@Animallover24678 You’re absolutely right… the most well-known ones, also the wars for L’Manburg, we’re the first ones that showed up in my head- but also the fact that there’s been more than one gets me thinking-
Derivakat is one of the most talented people. (And basically all singers, artists, animators from the dsmp community-)
i feel like the creative side of the fandom is just so elite. so many talented people on it making incredible things out of pixel blocks
@@nebula541 so truee like bruh they take a low quality picture made in mspaint (looking at you dream) and draw a god or smth

Keep in mind kids. This is all from a minecraft server.
Yup
The lore is illegally good
Now he wants to make a burger shop
i started watching the dream smp when ghostbur died i watched that stream so...
yeah that was sad
"Thirsty for blood" also wilbur: wants to sell burgers

Day 2 of asking Mathew to react to the soundtrack of Centaurworld, the new musical show on netflix. It's very very good, I picked out the songs that aren't spoilery, so they're safe to listen to without context.
Rider's Lullaby
Centaurworld
Hello Rainbow Road
Taurnado
Fragile Things
The Nowhere King (I recommend just listening to the audio when you go over this one, because while it's not spoilers, the scene will be more impactful when/if you eventually watch the show)
I shall keep asking until it happens, i'm that determined.
Who is she reprise would also be good
Ask on discord , he looks at those.
Centaurworld is so good!
I’ll second this!
yesss I would love to see him listen to them, the show has some really cool songs.
I'm pretty sure that the train in the background in Revived is a reference to the whole revival thing like a train from 'hell' bringing Wilbur back to the real world, or like his hell/limbo being a train station... I'm not 100% sure though
His limbo was the train station from Your city gave me asthma's album cover
His limbo/hell is a train station.
The interesting and impressive thing is that she is able to tell a story or go for a feeling, and people get it. Like, Mathew knows next to nothing about the Dream SMP, yet he can understand that there is a war, backstabbing, betrayal, etc. all from her music.
Yeah, if you are planning on reacting to any more smp animatics, you should do late_august! They are by far my favorite animators and they include so many details in it.
Yesssssss they’re AMAZING
YESSSS THEY’RE SOME OF MY FAVOURITE
You all love him a lot, and idk if you’re on Instagram, but he’s not going to post for a long time if ever again. But yes he should watch his videos I think!

Could you react to Little Nightmares fandoms songs?
Like:

Nightmare by ChewieCatt
Mono by Rockit Gaming, ChewieCatt

Also nightmares never end by JTMusic.
‘Tune into the madness’ is a banger as well
Pretty sure that’s how we all felt the first time we heard Revived Mathew
Great reaction ❤️ You’ve got it in the thumbnail but have you watched the actual vid of Revived? I think it makes it so much better seeing the art
The reaction to you going from “why” to “revived” was priceless
"oh... i think that's what it's about"
you can hear the self disappointment in his voice 😭
fun fact! that siren at the end of revived isnt an actual siren sound, its actually derivakat! she couldnt find the exact siren noise she wanted, so she made it herself!
I recommend also checking out Revived along with the music video, some amazing visuals accompany the already amazing song
I love watching you try to piece the story together with just music :3 most people who react to dsmp songs are already totally familiar with the story, and it just kind of cheapens it to me for some reason? Haha idk I just love that about your videos
since you sound so interested in the DSMP you should watch evanmcgaming to be caught up and see what happens
I so want him to get into the story, he'd appreciate the songs even more than he does now! Even if he doesn't do a video on it, he should check different lore videos out
really wished you reacted to the music video for Revived. the train noises make a lot more sense. also wilbur looks super evil in it.
The only Derivakat song I'd heard so far is Revived since it's been blowing up lately but oh my god I need to listen to more of her songs apparently, HOLY SHIT her music sounds gorgeous
OH- HE SHOULD LISTEN TO LIFE BY THE SEA
You should watch the Music Video for Revived because it ABSOLUTLY FREAKING Slaps!!! The Art is amazing and the way it was done.
Definitely needed this video, Mathew is just so funny,, I'm so glad I've found ur videos, they truly make my day every time. Love hearing ur opinions and seeing ur reactions ♡ :D
I really wish you watched the the music video for revived it makes it so much better it really does
16:14 Wait until he finds out that the alarm is actually just Derivakat's voice going higher and higher
literally the entirety of DreamSMP lore is just one very long war
Everyone's raw reaction to "revived" is so entertaining
You have so much musical knowledge, I love listening to you interpret these kinds of songs!
I’m gonna be completely honest. I lost my mind and jumped around my living room when you said you listened to the decemberists. They are some of my favorites as well, and I even went to a concert of theirs. So. Thanks I guess.
"Anime villain rapping over a Corpse Husband produced song" is the best possible description for Revived, I think you nailed it lmao
I really recommend reacting to EvanMcGaming's videos of the dream smp if you want to know more about the story
Hiya Mathew!! It’s over a year later now, and I think it would be *awesome* if you were to re-listen to these songs, because now that you know a good portion of the lore they would hit SO much harder, and understanding the lyrics just makes these songs even more phenomenal
I really like the fact that you don't know much about the plot for dsmp because we get to see how Derivakat's music holds, for people ouside of dsmp, story wise. Though I suggest watching the video for Revived bc the art for it makes the song 100x better. Love the videos!
React to "Voices" From Derivakat,
I believe it's a project involving 70 different youtubers
11:15
*YOU KNEW FRIEND WAS IN YOUR HOUSE!*
RIP Ghostbur, you were my favorite character, say hi to Henry for me
revived is such a bop :D
also im kinda early so hi matt if you see this! discord gang pog!
"Why" is my favorite of the album and it being right after Doomsday in the order worked so well to contrast the two perspectives of Doomsday.
"Like I'm listening to anime villain rap battle over a corpse husband produced song?!"

“There’s knifes of course it’s dark”
Me: There blowing up a nation yah it’s dark
Derivikat actually did a stream 2 days ago, where she was making one of her own originals, and not dsmp song, called Eden (I might have spelled that wrong)
And let me tell you... That song was awsome! And it wasn't even the finished version.
Basically the song is about how your dating this guy, and he just doesn't get it.
And its kinda a reference to the biblical story of adam and eve, but with a twist.
When the full song is released, you'll definitely have to listen carefully bc for most of the stream she was recording some harmonies and some background sounds, that you'll really have to listen carefully to even hear it. Like, you know how musicians and basically anyone who works with music can hear really well and identify lots of things that ppl who don't work with music probably wouldn't pick up the first time? It's basically like that.
One of the things derivikat said on stream about the song: "I don't smoke, but if I did, I'd probably listen to this song because like, it feels so free/ stress relieving"
(I can't remember exactly what she said, but it was very similar to this. I remember her saying she doesn't smoke)
So yhea, the song is very angelic like.
Here's the Vod from the stream: www.twitch.tv/derivakat/v/1134383797?sr=a
It's also great to listen to this in the background bc it's so calming.
I'm sorry I made an entire paragraph, but I've just been obsessed with this song and it isn't even out yet. I've rewatched the stream 2 times already.
My favorite part in the song from the stream:
I'm pretty sure this is apart of the bridge btw:
' kick him out of paradise
finally he'll realize
To by to to 'pologize (I couldn't really make that part out)
To edan, (I might be spelling edan wrong I'm sorry)
Let the sky be filled with light
Heal the scars and bloom with life
Leave me here and I'll reside to edan '
(And of course there's some other small background sounds, there's also a riff somewhere)
I don't wanna spoil the song here so again, if you want, search up Derivakat on twitch and the last stream she had, which is accessible to rewatch, is that.
The stream title is: recording a song new emotes! !software !socials
The way you were startled when Revived Started XD, the Train Sounds Are part of the Dream SMP Lore, Wilbur had been dead and his Limbo was a Train Station
10:00 more like stabbing your son with a sword in the gut, but whatever works!!
revived has an animated music video btw, i recommend just watching it off camera
I've said it once and I'll say it again
Why: People crying
Revived: People screaming
Can you react to dream smp complete story by Evan MCGaming? he did a really good job rewinding it 😀
You should react to even mcs dream smp story the songs are so much better when you know all the people and the story
You should watch the individual song videos to visualise what each songs about
YOOO HI MATT
HIIII
FUN FACT: the siren in the background of revived near the end was derivakat! she couldn't find one that she liked so she just decided to make her own with her vocals! also i recommend watching the lyric video for revived it adds so much more to the atmosphere
So, Night before dawn is about the L'manberg revolution, which happened in early to mid-august last year- which was the forming of L'manberg and its separation from the Dream SMP
Doomsday is about the event called Doomsday on the server where Philza, Technoblade, and Dream teamed up, destroying New L'manberg (after it was blown up by Wilbur, the former president of L'manberg). The reason why they were destroying it was because Philza was forced to kill Wilbur (his son), and blamed the government for Wilbur's descent into madness, Techno destroyed it because he's an anarchist and was betrayed by the government multiple times, and was even almost executed by New L'manbergs government, and Dream has always been adamant of L'manberg's destruction because it went against the main rules of the server before his own descent into madness.
Why is immediately after Doomsday from Ghostbur, Wilbur's ghost, POV, because Philza destroyed something that Wilbur, and Ghostbur both loved (Wilbur and Ghostbur are 2 separate entities, but share similar memories).
Hey I know I asked you this last time but can you really react to Kroh's music?
Yes!!!
Ok.. “night before dawn” it’s definitely the most Symbolic of all the songs here, and it definitely takes priority with translating the lore over the song itself. It’s supposed to be telling Wilbur soots Fall from grace into corruption. He’s trying to act like the revolutionary he once was to rally his men but he’s clearly loosing faith in the cause. The lyrics do it wonderfully but the song itself lacks because of it
I'd love to join your SMP but as a Xbox One player, I tried entering the code and it said I needed the owners permission. I don't know if this is just my device or something since I've never joined a realm world, so if any type of help can be told that be appreciated! ^^
If you want to know the full story of the dream SMP I recommend “Even mcc gaming” ( I can not spell sorry) he does a great summery of the story and is a brilliant story teller.
I would love an episode of just looking through the lyrics and trying to see what you can get from the story!
“Some war on the dream smp” not some lots, multiple
u should react to kroh
“I feel like I’m ready to charge in to battle” the whole dsmp fandom: 😐😐😐
“I’m gonna say the dumbest thing I’ve ever said but this sounds dark” the whole dsmp fandom: 😑😑😑
*realizes the songs about betrayal* the whole dsmp fandom: 😶😶😶
The story:
Night before dawn: Perparing for the war
Doomsday:The war
Why: The ghost of the man who built the thing which got destroyed
Revived: The ghost is revived
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!
love you matt 🧡🧡
...sometimes i genuinely forget that you haven't actually WATCHED any of the dsmp alsfdkjalskjdflaksdfj
because there's an event actually called 'doomsday' that happened--dream, techno, and philza teamed up and blew up new l'manburg (it's what both 'doomsday' and 'why' are based off of-- doomsday is from the doomsday trio's pov ('all corrupted, so corrupted refers to new l'manburgs government and the butcher army specifically (i believe you watched sad-ist's hog hunt? that was about the butcher army)) and 'why' is based off of ghosbur's pov (the ghost of wilbur soot, who was incapable of remembering anything upsetting and was arguably made as a satire about people who shared his same views,) who lived in (and liked) new l'manburg and was actually literally incapable of understanding why anybody would want to blow it up)
How did i just realize a lot of the Doomsday song is about Ranboo
