You can tell he actually wants love at the start but something bad happens each time he looks for it. In the pokemon heartful thing at 1:58 he doesn't know how to act when he sees love anymore which leads to him knocking everyone else down (race part) until at the final one where at that point he doesn't want love and decides to destroy the heart leaving him empty.
I feel like the song isn’t only about a break up. But a break up caused by fear. Skull guy wants love but doesn’t know how to accept it, not necessarily commitment issues, just anxiety over wrong choices. Like how in a Pokemon segment, ‘Talk’ was an option but after stressing over what to choose he ran away. Or in the dating sim when someone was interested in him all of his dialogue options were negative and he ended up running again. Look at the bubble game at 2:44 he tried to play the game but when he made a wrong move and saw the bubbles getting closer he panics and ends up losing the game for himself. It all may be more related to social anxieties and not being able to express yourself, and what you mean, the way you want to. And in turn not having good connections. Or “the love you need”
I like your angle, but I would argue that this song is more based on a post-break up scenario where skull guy struggles to get over a past love (the final heart). In the LOZ arena, he encounters a number of heart shaped objects (leaves, rocks, etc.), but nothing can fill the void in his hearts. The few times he gets a chance, he quickly panics and attempts to make a move before being overrun by the scenario
The low hp symbolism is crazy. How he reaches for the heart every level/game but he "can't get the love he needs anymore" and how he needs it now more than ever. Genius
This song hits so hard. Breaking a bond with someone eventually makes you feel broken and lost- I can relate to this hard. I have this song on loop almost once a month. I'm always told you'll find someone else for you but its hard to do that when you hate yourself so hard you know? *Thanks for such an amazing song*
Not even just breaking a bond, I've never been in a romantic relationship before, but even having good friendships broken can sting dude. Like recently my friendship with some people I look up to and respect was tested. I had lied to them a while ago and I finally came clean about it, and I felt so broken and undeserving of their friendship. Sorry for venting on ur post, but yeah I can kinda understand how you feel.
@calvinjustice8250 I hope your alright in end mate everything be fine trust me I didn't believe it as first but there is always something in return for the pain mate❤
lyrics: I don't get the love I need anymore I don't get the love I need anymore I'm feelin' sick of independence I don't get the love I need anymore I don't get the love, I walked out the door Oh, won't let you carry out my sentence Well the writing was clear, it appeared on the wall We were broken and scared unprepared for the fall It's true, I couldn't keep waiting on you And I know that you hurt and I know that you tried But I'll go it alone if I can't satisfy your view Why live a life I wasn't meant to? But they told me, "Dance Keep playin' the game Press start, continue, look Within' you, without you Begin to advance As far as you can 'Til you lose your winnings Find new beginnings" Na-na-na na-na-na I don't get the love I need anymore I'm cast out to sea, I can't find the shore Don't really know what I was thinking I don't get the love I need anymore I'm not even sure what I'm searching for I hear a melody and I start singing I am lost in a dream, I can't open my eyes Never told how to live after I say goodbye to you They tell me, "Find another darling" How can I find a love when I can't find myself? When they set me adrift, made me think when I jumped I flew but this just feels like I am falling And they told me, "Dance Follow the rules The next objective Feel defective, select A brand new circumstance Make lovers of fools Go through the motions To feel connected Without them you're broken, broken, broken, broken"

There’s a lot of messages in this song and visuals, like: When he was in the driving game, he only went the wrong way He had run away from the Heartful Opening the doors in the Doom style game had monsters behind it Skull guy only could only say the bad things when she asked him on a date
Yo, I noticed these too but don't think people need to dogpile on you about it. It's fun to talk about the little details. Thanks for making your list.
LYRICAL ANALYSIS: I've been listening to this song for a while, and I realize it's not necessarily about romantic love. It could be about any sort of love. Skull Guy had someone he loved very much, and became dependent on. After that person was no longer in the picture, he was alone, an alien experience for him. When they tell him to dance, they're saying he'll be fine on his own, and he can be self sufficient. He may have been convinced whatever bond he had was unhealthy. He felt liberated, but he now feels he's falling. That person was his world, and he depended on them. He has no idea of who he is independently, or how to operate alone. He's working alone, but only barely, hence the low HP. He wants any sort of bond again, but when it occurs, he gets scared and flees, fearing any change or abandonment again. He doesn't want to risk anything, as if he gets hurt by anything, he'll fall. They convinced him to go solo to dance, but it turns out it wasn't healthy for him. This really hits home for me, as I moved out of my foster parents home last year, and have been living alone. I can operate, but I desire any bond. I was abandoned by my biological parents, and always clinged to anyone who showed any interest in me. Not everyone is ready to exit a relationship, and it can be detrimental for someone who fears loneliness. People like Skull Guy and I, we thrive around people, but loneliness takes a heavy toll. Without anyone, we're hollow, doing whatever we can to fill the cavity where we store other people.
@@danalyshurtado5911 wtf do you mean is overrated he literally explained a deeper meaning to the song and even shared his experience and how he can relate to the character himself and that must be hard because he had those troubles and I too can relate to Skull Guy because I too depended so much of my attention into one thing and eventually lose it and see it in a different perspective making me feel alone.
There are 3 references to previous songs that I know of: 1:16 the girls racing helmet from “Sunburn” 1:34 in the paintings there’s images from “Drunk” and “Epoch”
My interpretation. The love in question developed naturally, like a wildflower. Two people were hanging out with each other and one day realized they're in love. But when that love fell apart, they didn't know how to start looking for someone else, so they get scared/confused whenever someone shows any interest in them.
Can we talk about how good the animation in this video is ? Its absurd that everything looks like it exists (besides what it references duh). I must know how long this took to make like...holy crap. that must be weeks or months of designing.
My guesses at which games are referenced: 00:00 First logo : (unknown) 00:04 Second logo : looks like a take on the old SquareSoft logo 00:10 Legend of Zelda. Specifically either a Link to the Past or the GameBoy Color version of Link's Awakening 00:41 (unknown). Kinda looks like Super Mario World, but that does not seem quite right 00:57 Diablo? or perhaps Dungeon Siege? I did not do much D&D-clone gaming in early 2000s 01:10 Loading screen : Perhaps something like King's Quest? 01:11 Battletoads 01:27 Doom 01:43 (unknown) Reminds me of several old racing games, like Super Off Road, but that's not quite right 01:58 Pokemon Red & Blue 02:14 Final Fantasy VII (1997) 02:44 Bubble Bobble? 02:53 (unknown dating game) 03:00 Angry Birds 03:04 Asteroids 03:15 Back to Zelda and the low-hearts warning noise
If only it worked that way but the truth is this is often what really happens when you lose 'the one'. What's not inserted is your family telling you it was always going to be that way because she was married and you had no business being in open relationship. Nice how the crushing sadness and unending pain is portrayed with video games though! Eternally single people do that a fair bit from my experience.
I'm hyped for this song because all of the living tombstone song are sooo good!!! It is amazing!! It had so many references beacuse of the living tombstone's 9th anniversary. Coda and the living tombstone both did an amazing job!
This is a nine year special and i’m honestly gonna love this for a long time, I remember when i started listening to your fnaf songs when i was a bit young, feels weird that some people like me grew up with you. You’re an amazing you tuber, Much love.
These last 9 months I've been in love with a girl that I met in college. I rarely fall in love, since I consider myself extraordinarily introvert, but this was one of those cases. We ended up becoming very friends, but last week I told her about it and I just wasn't corresponded. I tried to get over it as quickly as possible so as not to compromise our friendship, and although I think I'm doing well (we keep on going as before) I can't help but feel kind of empty, like feeling way way lonelier than I would feel just a year ago even if we still talk. Like, "What do I do now?", "Who do I fall in love with now?", "Am I overthinking?", "Should I even be asking myself all of this or instead just study for next week's exam?".
The past 3 songs are all means of escaping reality. Not only that, they're all connected. Alcohol Daydreaming Videogames And in each of these videos, there are a string of references. The girl's bike helmet from Sunburn appeared in here. The man from Drunk appeared in Sunburn. This is something big.
The first time I heard it I liked it but it didn't impress me to much then I listened again a while later and I realized how fantastic the song really is. It's definitely one of my favorites.
Lyrics: I don't get the love I need anymore. I don't get the love I need anymore. I'm feeling sick of independence. I don't get the love I need anymore. I don't get the love I walked out the door! Won't let you carry out my sentence. Well, the writing was clear, It appeared on the wall. We were broken and scared, Unprepared for the fall, It's true. I couldn't keep waiting on you. And I know that you heard, And I know that you tried, But I'll go in alone, If I can't satisfy Your view. Why live a life I wasn't meant to? But they told me "Dance! Keep playing the game, press start, continue. Look within you, Without you. Begin to advance! As far as you can, till you lose your winnings. Find new beginnings." Nana nanana na. I don't get the love I need anymore. I'm cast out the sea, I can't find a shore. Don't really know what I was thinking. Oh, oh, oh. I don't get the love I need anymore. I'm not even sure of what I'm searching for, I hear a melody and I start singing. I am lost in a dream, I can't open my eyes. Never told how to live, After I say goodbye To you. They tell me "Find another darling!" Ohoh How can I find a love, When I can't find myself. Well, they set me adrift, Made me think when I jumped I flew. But this just feels like I am falling. And they told me "Dance! Follow the rules, the next objective. Feel defective. Select a brand new circumstance, Make lovers of fools Go through the motions To feel connected, Without them you're broken." You can also check the description of the video. This comment was made before they were there, which is the reason why I made it.
From what I'm getting, Skull Guy is looking for love that he can depend on, love he needs, but all of the times he sees a chance to get love, it either is fake, or it disappears before he gets the chance to try his luck with it. It soon gets to the point that he rejects it when an oppurtunity appears, but in the end, he still wishes to find the love he needs. Also, Happy 9th birthday for the channel, Tombstone!
This song hit me in the feels really hard. I was raised by a narcissist, so this song made me think of the man I called Dad before he disowned me for standing up for myself. It took so much out of me to stand up for myself against him, but I'm better off without him. Still stings, though, and always will since I unfortunately still love him. Whatever love you've lost, you *can* move on, know that. Thanks for this moment of your time. Amazing music; Tombstone's got hella great vibes
I feel like all these universes are connected considering there’s a sunburn reference ( the helmet at 1:16 ) and also in sunburn the guy from DRUNK was referenced. It makes you wonder if there will be some big climax of characters meeting or something, maybe an entity is possessing these people relating to how all of them share the cracked skull somewhere on their person. The TLT comprehensive universe is very interesting
@@zeldash_ I don't remember the timestamp but I think the guy from drunk is promoting an (energy?) drink when the 2 girls were driving down a building. also you can barely see a "my ordinary life" reference too

For me it a guys who just broke up with a girl and trying get some "love" with someone else but it too hard because he is Always at 1pv (who for me it is shattered confidence) that would explain why the style of all "game" change because it a different girl that he is trying to get a relation with and it change because he fail or flee everytime (Sorry if it confusing or if it got grammatical error in french but i Hope you get my point)
I just realised something about the health bars. He doesn't get enough love, and he doesn't have enough hp. What an interesting correlation you did there Tomby.
IMO This song is describing someone who needs someone to he happy, He fails numerous times, he got used to failures and when he has the opportunity (in Pokémon and dating sim games) he ran away sabotaging himself A. very toxic behavior imo
IMO, I think you have a point, also, well IMO, you using IMO twice was funny, so IMO, I thought it'd be funny to use it an obsessive amount of times... I have no friends :')
Everyone is saying this song is about a relationship, but I don’t think it is. This is a song about a person who has been cast out into the real world with no advice or direction, just after being told to, for lack or a better phrase, burn through everyday life. As a child, we probably have all been told to “toughen up” or “truck through it” if you’re a midwestern kid like me. Even when I was in obvious pain and had my mental health down, I was told to get up and get to it. In this song, he is “tired of independence” this man was obviously sent into the real world without any help or anything to rely on, and him being on “1 hp” is him in constant danger or losing everything because he doesn’t have help, hope, or love. Thanks for coming to my TED talk Edit: lots of people are saying it could go either way, and although that is true, I just thought this would make more sense in my head. Changing the first line to reflect that.
It could be both! It really did have a lot of romantic connotations ("Find another darling", the very obvious dating sim thing, chasing after a heart throughout everything, and many main lyrics implying the breakup), so it could be people telling him to toughen up and deal with it and just move on, continue with life, which is very difficult(both life and moving on like magic), so having to balance that out has him under constant stress
It can go either way, so I don't know why you just decide to say it's not about something without any basis behind why it's not. Also, the lyrics point to it being about a relationship, but the protagonist can't love himself, so he can't love others.
What if...and here me out on this one. The song has...multiple interpretations??? Woah. Crazy concept. No but actually this interpretation makes a lot of sense it's just that you shouldn't blame someone/try to correct someone for finding a different interpretation in a work of art. Just sayin', not trying to be a grammar nazi/kill the vibe you're goin' for here.
TLT just looks at is upload schedule. He says to himself “The fans would be disappointed at the late arrivals” TLT: “But can they be mad If I pretend to be dead then drop a bloody album on them when I return?”
Hey Yoav. I just wanted to say thank you for this song. It helped me out in a really tough time a few years ago when I experienced the toughest heartbreak I've ever had, and I remember listening to this to try and cope, as well as some of your other songs. Thank you.
Honestly I seem some people making theories about this song, but I personally think its about TLT themselves, specifically about how all their older songs have hundreds of millions of views and how recently (and kind of for a while now) it seems like a lot of fans/listeners have just stopped or moved on. These whole theme would line up with so many lines of the song, and would also match how the game Skull Guy is in keeps changing and adapting. One specific reoccurring thing of the songs video is that all the hearts end up being enemies, and I feel like that could def be how a lot of people will hype up one song, and then ignore the next, creating this false feeling of achievement only to be let down. Anyways that's my hot take :)
It's a cool theory nonetheless, but it's truly only about a guy I would assume playing video games to distract himself from love. He becomes addicted to video games to not understand how to love someone, hence the dating sim scene. He becomes so consumed with video games, he can't comprehend that he has to have a relationship. Or it's just a catchy song haha
I can't stop listening to this song. This song literally predicted what happened to me. Like, it was released in early august, and in the late august, the person who I loved for a long time just said that she doesn't like me anymore. Although I didn't even had a chance to discuss my feelings to her. And I feel almost like this character, lost in the world, trying to find the new love and forget about the failed past, but just messing up all the time, and in result find nothing. Thank you for your song.
for me its nowadays, i've lost all ability to feel honestly. i dont know who i am but i dont feel like myself, im in a relationship because i thought it would make me feel at least something but it didn't so i just try to make em happy and serve them. i dont want to date my crush because it'll be the same, i'll feel nothing and i dont want to hurt them
okay, the animation in this really kills it for me. it so perfectly encapsulates what it actually feels like to look at and play these different styles of games. its so nostalgic my heart aches! pretty brilliant presentation. cheers! looking forward to everything you release
As a person who used to date somebody toxic, this song is DEFINITELY what the aftermath of a breakup looks like. The fact that movies and people glamorize "moving on" and getting the f up, is so frustrating to me. It's not Easy to just "move on" and be alright the next few days. Cuz not only are you left behind by that person, you're Also Traumatized by the fact that the next relationship is gonna end up similarly to that. The lines from "I am lost in a dream, I can't open my eyes, Never told how to live after I say goodbye to you..." is also one problem when it comes to breakups. You'd feel jaded, lost in the fact that you feel like you're unlovable and knowing that it's not possible to achieve something like that anymore. In turn, you feel stuck in this limbo where you "don't know what it is that you're searching for". It's actually pretty interesting how TLT and the animators used videogames as an example to point out the message of this song. Overall, I'm actually very happy and shocked that for once, someone showed an even more accurate reality of how it actually feels to not be able to get on with life that easily due to a traumatic love experience. TLT- you're a long-time artist that I've followed, ever since your first song of FNAF and I hope you continue to make more music- You never fail to amaze me along with your teams and colleagues out there.
1:16 Pink Helmet from "Sunburn" 1:34 Painting from "Drunk" The picture with all the faces on it 1:36 Painting from "Epoch" The blue background with the bear holding the flower
Is anyone gonna talk about how in all of these songs, there's a reference of the previous song? I have quite a theory. I feel like Zero One (shown in the ending of Sunburn) Is an operation for all of these characters to be scripted to meet up, considering we keep seeing these characters in different songs. If this is true, this means we'll have an epic crossover song with Drunk, Love I need, and Sunburn all together. I wonder if more characters will arrive.
Not sure how accurate this interpretation is, but this video gives me the impression of self-sabotage. Skull Guy is constantly being offered things he needs, namely love (in the form of heart-shaped items, opportunities to connect with other characters, etc.) but the person controlling him deliberately avoids collecting them, forcing him to keep soldiering on and operating at full capacity when he's exhausted and only hanging on by a thread. He knows he needs the love to succeed, he knows that he's not getting the love he needs, but he's also unable to make himself accept that love. Eventually these tendencies to self-sabotage bleed into sabotaging others, like pushing one of the racers off of the track. He's singing about not getting the love he needs, but its his own tendency to push the people and things he loves away that is causing him to suffer like this. As someone who falls into that trap of self-sabotage and refusing help, sinking deeper into deep dark pits than is really necessary, this video is one of the first visual representations of this feeling that I've come across that really resonates with me.
It sounds like these opportunities keep being pushed to him, but he doesn't want them, because he doesn't want to start a relationship just to fill a void. He doesn't know who he is without a romantic partner, so getting one won't fix the issue
@@nikooo1794 However In The Video It Shows Him Seeking Out The Hearts/Love However After The First Couple Times It Gets Taken Away From Him He Eventually Is Hesitant And Is Unable To Approach Love In The Same Way Always Running Away Despite Seeking It
actually this was based off of many games, doom, spooky's mansion, um kirby's dreamland maybe?, pokemon, crash bandicoot, the bubble popping mobile games, visual novels, angery birds, asteroid, zelda, some more. most very good games, i recommend them if you want some older games that still hold up today
the animation is so good and the video game references are dope, it sounds amazing and this is one of the few songs i still have on loop after 2 years, also kinda hits home too.
For all the people wondering why there are comments before the song comes out: We've just arrived before the premiere. No, we don't secretly house a time machine in our cellar whatareyoutalkingabout-
There’s definitely some lore to all of these. “Chosen” has some kind of hidden meaning. He’s doing something very cool, I just can’t quite figure it out. Must’ve been planning and making these during his break.
I have been listening for 7 years, your music, being honest since I started all the fnaf Fanbase, but I found great music on your channel, today my favorite songs without a doubt Becoming Popular and Taking Flight ... Thank you for continuing to make such good music ... Congratulations for those 9 years, I hope there are still many more ahead of listening to more musical gems like this ... Congratulations! And Thank You...
EACH of your original songs has been an addictive BOP I’ve had on repeat. The animations are entertaining and engaging, the lyrics are catchy as HECK, and I keep leaving them on repeat for hours. I already love this one on my second listen. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR CHANNEL!!!! 🧡💀🧡💀🧡 Keep up the good stuff you funky little gravestone- but also take breaks when you want/need!
This hits on a spiritual level. We don't deserve TLT, but we need TLT. This man be going deeeeeep with his songs, and it is nothing short of beautiful.
so what i understand is: the person is trying to find love (represented by the hearts he is trying to achieve and the hp always in 1) in different relationships (represented by the sudden change of games) and him always being afraid (represented by him entering in the dark room in "zelda", jumping in the hole in "mario", entering the cave in what is think it's "warcraft" and running away in "pokemon" and the dating sim) or being hurt by a toxic relationship (represented by him dying in the beat 'em up game, getting various ambushes in "doom", slippering in the race game, falling in the rpg game, losing in the puzzle game and not winning the space shooter game after destroying the heart) and then by not being loved enough, he finally succumbs and gives up (falls asleep)
This song has really been resonating with me recently. I went through my first breakup a few months ago and it was only after I left them that I realised how emotionally dependent I had become. I loved being with them, it made me happier than I ever had been before. I had convinced myself fully that we were going to be forever, so when I left it felt like the future I had hoped for just faded before my eyes. I feel aimless and I’m afraid of facing the world alone. Update: Been going strong with somebody new for over a year now. Safe to say I’ve fully moved on from my ex and am much happier with my new partner. To anybody going through a breakup, hang in there, you will find the love you deserve
@@neferov Way better actually. I recently met somebody new and I feel even more comfortable with them than my last partner. Even though they live abroad, they came to visit me within the first couple of weeks of being together and we’re already planning another visit in April. I don’t think I’ve been happier than I am now in a hell of a long time. Thanks for asking :3

You can tell he actually wants love at the start but something bad happens each time he looks for it. In the pokemon heartful thing at 1:58 he doesn't know how to act when he sees love anymore which leads to him knocking everyone else down (race part) until at the final one where at that point he doesn't want love and decides to destroy the heart leaving him empty.
1:22 as soon as he goes for the heart, he gets ambushed.
1:31 and 1:36 when he opens up the heart doors, he's only met with more enemies

Also the anime "durarara!!"
I feel like the song isn’t only about a break up. But a break up caused by fear. Skull guy wants love but doesn’t know how to accept it, not necessarily commitment issues, just anxiety over wrong choices. Like how in a Pokemon segment, ‘Talk’ was an option but after stressing over what to choose he ran away. Or in the dating sim when someone was interested in him all of his dialogue options were negative and he ended up running again.
Look at the bubble game at 2:44 he tried to play the game but when he made a wrong move and saw the bubbles getting closer he panics and ends up losing the game for himself.
It all may be more related to social anxieties and not being able to express yourself, and what you mean, the way you want to. And in turn not having good connections. Or “the love you need”
I think the devil heart at 1:16 represents toxic relationships im sure someone can make something out of that
Templayz and more! That wasn’t a devil heart, it was the helmet of one of the characters in the Sunburn song
I like your angle, but I would argue that this song is more based on a post-break up scenario where skull guy struggles to get over a past love (the final heart). In the LOZ arena, he encounters a number of heart shaped objects (leaves, rocks, etc.), but nothing can fill the void in his hearts. The few times he gets a chance, he quickly panics and attempts to make a move before being overrun by the scenario

You good? Like for real? These cover some dark topics.
Sending love ❤️
yeah, whenever i listened to these songs im like "wow these are cool" but then "*wait does this mean something about tlt's life*"
TLT always makes music with meaning to it
Yea I noticed too
Yaaaaa...
It might help him put out masterpieces like this, put an ease to the pain maybe? Or as a way to accept it
This song hits so hard. Breaking a bond with someone eventually makes you feel broken and lost- I can relate to this hard. I have this song on loop almost once a month. I'm always told you'll find someone else for you but its hard to do that when you hate yourself so hard you know?
*Thanks for such an amazing song*
I agree, I love this song so much, and the fact that he talks about how the world just tells him to get over it makes it that much more emotional
I understand you so much. I've resently broke up with my gf and I'm like broken inside. That sucks
honestly i just had one of those moments but with my parents :(
Not even just breaking a bond, I've never been in a romantic relationship before, but even having good friendships broken can sting dude. Like recently my friendship with some people I look up to and respect was tested. I had lied to them a while ago and I finally came clean about it, and I felt so broken and undeserving of their friendship.
Sorry for venting on ur post, but yeah I can kinda understand how you feel.
@calvinjustice8250 I hope your alright in end mate everything be fine trust me I didn't believe it as first but there is always something in return for the pain mate❤

moral of recent tlt songs: don’t have a skull face, it doesn’t end well
Or just have a face to put on that skull
*looks at TLT's pfp*
oh god OH FU-
Rip red skull
what about drunk
@@weirdead7741 I'm pretty sure that Drunk is one of the songs they were referring to, since that also doesn't end well
lyrics:
I don't get the love I need anymore
I don't get the love I need anymore
I'm feelin' sick of independence
I don't get the love I need anymore
I don't get the love, I walked out the door
Oh, won't let you carry out my sentence
Well the writing was clear, it appeared on the wall
We were broken and scared unprepared for the fall
It's true, I couldn't keep waiting on you
And I know that you hurt and I know that you tried
But I'll go it alone if I can't satisfy your view
Why live a life I wasn't meant to?
But they told me, "Dance
Keep playin' the game
Press start, continue, look
Within' you, without you
Begin to advance
As far as you can
'Til you lose your winnings
Find new beginnings"
Na-na-na na-na-na
I don't get the love I need anymore
I'm cast out to sea, I can't find the shore
Don't really know what I was thinking
I don't get the love I need anymore
I'm not even sure what I'm searching for
I hear a melody and I start singing
I am lost in a dream, I can't open my eyes
Never told how to live after I say goodbye to you
They tell me, "Find another darling"
How can I find a love when I can't find myself?
When they set me adrift, made me think when I jumped
I flew but this just feels like I am falling
And they told me, "Dance
Follow the rules
The next objective
Feel defective, select
A brand new circumstance
Make lovers of fools
Go through the motions
To feel connected
Without them you're broken, broken, broken, broken"
Thank you
dude, how is that so long but the song feels so short
bro, thanks really XD
This was a real treat to look at and listen to !

"So how many video game references do you want?"
TLT: "yes."
But that's not the que-
DID I STUTTER?!!
Haha haha haha yes
"So uhh....how many unfunny and dead memes do you want? Like that astronomía meme. Everyone used it, but it died."
Internet: YES (Irony)
Yes
wait , every reference is about all best game ever
always have been
I thinks the most impactfull moment is in the pokeverse when he run away, it completly represent the theme i think and i loved it😊
There’s a lot of messages in this song and visuals, like:
When he was in the driving game, he only went the wrong way
He had run away from the Heartful
Opening the doors in the Doom style game had monsters behind it
Skull guy only could only say the bad things when she asked him on a date
I think you're using the term "deep" very loosely.
@@Anzyll I guess I do tend to overthink things
@Gaz Exactly what I said
Yo, I noticed these too but don't think people need to dogpile on you about it. It's fun to talk about the little details. Thanks for making your list.
Yeah man! I saw them too
LYRICAL ANALYSIS:
I've been listening to this song for a while, and I realize it's not necessarily about romantic love. It could be about any sort of love. Skull Guy had someone he loved very much, and became dependent on. After that person was no longer in the picture, he was alone, an alien experience for him. When they tell him to dance, they're saying he'll be fine on his own, and he can be self sufficient. He may have been convinced whatever bond he had was unhealthy. He felt liberated, but he now feels he's falling. That person was his world, and he depended on them. He has no idea of who he is independently, or how to operate alone. He's working alone, but only barely, hence the low HP. He wants any sort of bond again, but when it occurs, he gets scared and flees, fearing any change or abandonment again. He doesn't want to risk anything, as if he gets hurt by anything, he'll fall. They convinced him to go solo to dance, but it turns out it wasn't healthy for him. This really hits home for me, as I moved out of my foster parents home last year, and have been living alone. I can operate, but I desire any bond. I was abandoned by my biological parents, and always clinged to anyone who showed any interest in me. Not everyone is ready to exit a relationship, and it can be detrimental for someone who fears loneliness. People like Skull Guy and I, we thrive around people, but loneliness takes a heavy toll. Without anyone, we're hollow, doing whatever we can to fill the cavity where we store other people.
This comment is sooo overrated.
@@danalyshurtado5911 overrated? What do you mean? There's only one like, and I didn't even like it myself.
@@GammaRoidGamma ok...
@@danalyshurtado5911 bro did you even read the comment?
@@danalyshurtado5911 wtf do you mean is overrated he literally explained a deeper meaning to the song and even shared his experience and how he can relate to the character himself and that must be hard because he had those troubles and I too can relate to Skull Guy because I too depended so much of my attention into one thing and eventually lose it and see it in a different perspective making me feel alone.
It’s Actually Cool How The Living Tombstone Makes His Own Character.
He already did on "drunk"
He created other characters before, like in "My Ordinary Life" or "Cut the Cord"
Now all we need is actual lore
I prefer the older TLT. I like the creativity, but it's got to the point the songs feel a little random.
are you new here?
Song is a 10/10.
Visuals are a 10/10.
The Living Tombstone is a 10/10.
Make alla that a 20/10
visual?!?!? mf what visual
Everyone's talking about the Sunburn and DRUNK references but no ones talking about the Epoch reference at 1:36. Its a real classic😭
omg you saying epoch is a classic is making me feel old
@@saeedafrimpong3550 same
Everyone makes mistakes-
Mediocre Gamer we need a my ordinary life reference
I love epoch
Noooo you can't just make us wait 40 hours for a song!
TLT: haha premiere go brrrrr
They want us to be hyped.
Haha hype goes brr
dead meme
@Apex Agree, But no need to say obvious things.
Still funny sometimes
There are 3 references to previous songs that I know of:
1:16 the girls racing helmet from “Sunburn”
1:34 in the paintings there’s images from “Drunk” and “Epoch”
Savlonic is the person who made the original song. The song itself is called Epoch.
Jinxeroni thanks! I’ll fix it
At 1:43 the wrong way sign could be a reference to "My Ordinary Life"
ROFLSaurus Rex kind of but not quite, the wrong way in “My Ordinary Life” was just red text
ROFLSaurus Rex no thats literally just a wrong way sign like in mario karts
My interpretation. The love in question developed naturally, like a wildflower. Two people were hanging out with each other and one day realized they're in love. But when that love fell apart, they didn't know how to start looking for someone else, so they get scared/confused whenever someone shows any interest in them.
TLT at this point is just sitting there and just muttering to himself:One more song cannot hurt anybody right?RIGHT?
It’s sorta like song machine from Gorillaz
He’s making an ablum, so there is 7 more after this!!
@Lewis Very interesting, cause Gorillaz are also releasing 10 songs for their album.....maybe TLT is taking inspiration from them?
@@lewis9s no, there's 3 more. 3 more until the album release.
@@MarcoPolo-py4lv I mean... 10 songs is a pretty average number of songs for an album
Can we talk about how good the animation in this video is ? Its absurd that everything looks like it exists (besides what it references duh). I must know how long this took to make like...holy crap. that must be weeks or months of designing.
I like the zoom reference
Especially since the references so many different games that art style change so many times
As a pro animator , thinking that this made by weeks will be super stupid tbh. It has so many fucking months or even a year ( not joking ).
@kantel Wut? WDYM

Cuphead in a nutshell
téu_ in the zone
Melting in nuclear throne be like:
My guesses at which games are referenced:
00:00 First logo : (unknown)
00:04 Second logo : looks like a take on the old SquareSoft logo
00:10 Legend of Zelda. Specifically either a Link to the Past or the GameBoy Color version of Link's Awakening
00:41 (unknown). Kinda looks like Super Mario World, but that does not seem quite right
00:57 Diablo? or perhaps Dungeon Siege? I did not do much D&D-clone gaming in early 2000s
01:10 Loading screen : Perhaps something like King's Quest?
01:11 Battletoads
01:27 Doom
01:43 (unknown) Reminds me of several old racing games, like Super Off Road, but that's not quite right
01:58 Pokemon Red & Blue
02:14 Final Fantasy VII (1997)
02:44 Bubble Bobble?
02:53 (unknown dating game)
03:00 Angry Birds
03:04 Asteroids
03:15 Back to Zelda and the low-hearts warning noise
I think 1:43 references rc pro am for the nes, could be wrong but that’s what it reminds me of
@@zuluecho5886 Possibly! Others have mentioned Rock n' Roll Racing, which fits in with the rest of the 90s games a little more nicely
Man, why are these bops so depressing.
Like give him his love already.
At the end skull guy sleeping at the darkness with his sword
Give this man a me-
The love he wants and needs
I know right
If only it worked that way but the truth is this is often what really happens when you lose 'the one'. What's not inserted is your family telling you it was always going to be that way because she was married and you had no business being in open relationship. Nice how the crushing sadness and unending pain is portrayed with video games though! Eternally single people do that a fair bit from my experience.
Skull guy:i just wanted a heart
Every enemy in these games: understandable die
I just realized that these songs will become nostalgia in the future
just like the fnaf songs
vinpie yes booi
epoch remix was a vibe 3 years ago
Don't make me think about it
I feel old by just thinking about how "I can't fix you" is already nostalgic
As a fellow pixel artist I can really appreciate the work put into the video for this. I can tell the work that was put into this.
when the doom part came up my mind went "living Doomstone"
Lol
Genius
your pun made me want to sleep
yes
raveyard time
I'm hyped for this song because all of the living tombstone song are sooo good!!!
It is amazing!! It had so many references beacuse of the living tombstone's 9th anniversary. Coda and the living tombstone both did an amazing job!
How could they not be?
And all tlt songs always start with an impeccable beat ^^
Dude ikr
Ye

This is a nine year special and i’m honestly gonna love this for a long time, I remember when i started listening to your fnaf songs when i was a bit young, feels weird that some people like me grew up with you. You’re an amazing you tuber, Much love.
Same ❤❤
Grew up with it too and will always love them
Me too
Samesies
I'm start listening mlp song
These last 9 months I've been in love with a girl that I met in college.
I rarely fall in love, since I consider myself extraordinarily introvert, but this was one of those cases. We ended up becoming very friends, but last week I told her about it and I just wasn't corresponded.
I tried to get over it as quickly as possible so as not to compromise our friendship, and although I think I'm doing well (we keep on going as before) I can't help but feel kind of empty, like feeling way way lonelier than I would feel just a year ago even if we still talk.
Like, "What do I do now?", "Who do I fall in love with now?", "Am I overthinking?", "Should I even be asking myself all of this or instead just study for next week's exam?".
The past 3 songs are all means of escaping reality.
Not only that, they're all connected.
Alcohol
Daydreaming
Videogames
And in each of these videos, there are a string of references. The girl's bike helmet from Sunburn appeared in here.
The man from Drunk appeared in Sunburn.
This is something big.
Also drunk guy have the same skull that this boy
@@TheXtrategaxd Could be drunk guy playing the games, yea. If that's the case then he's been in all 3 songs.
@@TheXtrategaxd The skull is the Logo for The Living Tombstone.
I thought so too! But if we go further "My ordinary life" also had this vibe, except the escape was death but also mentioned in the song drugs.
There is also a refference to Drunk in the doom game here , like many others in the paintings
Living tombstone: doesn’t post for like a year...... living tombstone now: just one more song... maybe like three more?...
Jejejejejeje
3? If you go on iTunes you can see a whole album!
Oh and it’s not part of it too so that means even more songs
Im glad he's doing that. First album and it's a BANGER. Also those animationsnare just.... *chefs kiss*
I think it might be short term motivation/inspiration.
Everybody kept asking "Where's Tombstone" but nobody was asking "How's Tombstone".
they are though
literally the last words of the comment above this comment says "tlt are you okay?"
@@Wrong5328 was talking about during his hiatus.
ill do you one better whats tombstone
I feel like that's a reference to the wheres Waldo joke from family guy
@@dumb0999 *why* is tombstone
The lyrics seem to get to me a lot more now that I've experienced heartbreak so bad that I feel like I can't love anymore, even many months later.
Easter eggs
1:16 - Helmet from "Sunburn"
1:34 - Picture from "Drunk"
1:36 - Picture from "Epoch"
1:37 - Meat, a reference to Vinesauce,
OH MY FGFIGFUGHIN JUST NOW DID I SEE MEAT
There is an another easter egg at 2:22 (the health is at 1/2401, L is real xD)
At one 1:50 there is a wrong way and at the end of my ordinary life there is one too ^^
Oh that meat picture is me on the inside derpinesss
0:58 - There is a Goose in the Menu, probably a reference to Goose Goose Revolution (Untitled Goose Game)
*When I first hear TLT's new music:* Oh, cool.
*Me a few hours later:* PLAYING THE SONG ON REPEAT AT FULL VOLUME AND HAS ALREADY MEMORIZED THE LYRICS.

I don't get the love I need anymore.
I don't get the love I need anymore.
I'm feeling sick of independence.
I don't get the love I need anymore.
I don't get the love I walked out the door!
Won't let you carry out my sentence.
Well, the writing was clear,
It appeared on the wall.
We were broken and scared,
Unprepared for the fall,
It's true.
I couldn't keep waiting on you.
And I know that you heard,
And I know that you tried,
But I'll go in alone,
If I can't satisfy
Your view.
Why live a life I wasn't meant to?
But they told me "Dance!
Keep playing the game, press start, continue.
Look within you,
Without you.
Begin to advance!
As far as you can, till you lose your winnings.
Find new beginnings."
Nana nanana na.
I don't get the love I need anymore.
I'm cast out the sea, I can't find a shore.
Don't really know what I was thinking.
Oh, oh, oh.
I don't get the love I need anymore.
I'm not even sure of what I'm searching for,
I hear a melody and I start singing.
I am lost in a dream,
I can't open my eyes.
Never told how to live,
After I say goodbye
To you.
They tell me "Find another darling!"
Ohoh
How can I find a love,
When I can't find myself.
Well, they set me adrift,
Made me think when I jumped
I flew.
But this just feels like I am falling.
And they told me "Dance!
Follow the rules, the next objective.
Feel defective.
Select a brand new circumstance,
Make lovers of fools
Go through the motions
To feel connected,
Without them you're broken."
You can also check the description of the video. This comment was made before they were there, which is the reason why I made it.

From what I'm getting, Skull Guy is looking for love that he can depend on, love he needs, but all of the times he sees a chance to get love, it either is fake, or it disappears before he gets the chance to try his luck with it. It soon gets to the point that he rejects it when an oppurtunity appears, but in the end, he still wishes to find the love he needs.
Also, Happy 9th birthday for the channel, Tombstone!
This song hit me in the feels really hard. I was raised by a narcissist, so this song made me think of the man I called Dad before he disowned me for standing up for myself. It took so much out of me to stand up for myself against him, but I'm better off without him. Still stings, though, and always will since I unfortunately still love him.
Whatever love you've lost, you *can* move on, know that. Thanks for this moment of your time. Amazing music; Tombstone's got hella great vibes

@@loneIyyy -_-
I feel like all these universes are connected considering there’s a sunburn reference ( the helmet at 1:16 ) and also in sunburn the guy from DRUNK was referenced.
It makes you wonder if there will be some big climax of characters meeting or something, maybe an entity is possessing these people relating to how all of them share the cracked skull somewhere on their person. The TLT comprehensive universe is very interesting
Have you ever heard of a reference? C’mon it’s not gonna be like a living tombstone multiverse... I-is it?
Where is the drunk référence in sunburn ? Also during the doom part, you can see a slavonic epoch painting

It looks like the guy needs love but dosent want it, knows he'll do just fine but deep down, really REALLY needs it.
In fact it hurt him
For me it a guys who just broke up with a girl and trying get some "love" with someone else but it too hard because he is Always at 1pv (who for me it is shattered confidence) that would explain why the style of all "game" change because it a different girl that he is trying to get a relation with and it change because he fail or flee everytime

@@AwsomeDogsAreAwsome I think it's supposed to mean he didn't pick up on time
I just realised something about the health bars.
He doesn't get enough love, and he doesn't have enough hp.
What an interesting correlation you did there Tomby.
IMO This song is describing someone who needs someone to he happy, He fails numerous times, he got used to failures and when he has the opportunity (in Pokémon and dating sim games) he ran away sabotaging himself
A. very toxic behavior imo
Maybe he had trust issues
Feel more like he was searching for a certain kind of love and it wasn't it.
He couldn't respond with what he wanted to. Only nah.
IMO, I think you have a point, also, well IMO, you using IMO twice was funny, so IMO, I thought it'd be funny to use it an obsessive amount of times...
I have no friends :')
I feel like toxic isn't the exact word to put in here
Everyone is saying this song is about a relationship, but I don’t think it is.
This is a song about a person who has been cast out into the real world with no advice or direction, just after being told to, for lack or a better phrase, burn through everyday life. As a child, we probably have all been told to “toughen up” or “truck through it” if you’re a midwestern kid like me. Even when I was in obvious pain and had my mental health down, I was told to get up and get to it. In this song, he is “tired of independence” this man was obviously sent into the real world without any help or anything to rely on, and him being on “1 hp” is him in constant danger or losing everything because he doesn’t have help, hope, or love.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Edit: lots of people are saying it could go either way, and although that is true, I just thought this would make more sense in my head. Changing the first line to reflect that.
Hey this is top tier actually
Totaly accuarate !!!
It could be both! It really did have a lot of romantic connotations ("Find another darling", the very obvious dating sim thing, chasing after a heart throughout everything, and many main lyrics implying the breakup), so it could be people telling him to toughen up and deal with it and just move on, continue with life, which is very difficult(both life and moving on like magic), so having to balance that out has him under constant stress
It can go either way, so I don't know why you just decide to say it's not about something without any basis behind why it's not.
Also, the lyrics point to it being about a relationship, but the protagonist can't love himself, so he can't love others.
What if...and here me out on this one.
The song has...multiple interpretations???
Woah. Crazy concept.
No but actually this interpretation makes a lot of sense it's just that you shouldn't blame someone/try to correct someone for finding a different interpretation in a work of art.
Just sayin', not trying to be a grammar nazi/kill the vibe you're goin' for here.
TLT just looks at is upload schedule.
He says to himself “The fans would be disappointed at the late arrivals”
TLT: “But can they be mad If I pretend to be dead then drop a bloody album on them when I return?”
He's not wrong tho
Year not appear and this year he very active
Yep he can
Hey Yoav. I just wanted to say thank you for this song. It helped me out in a really tough time a few years ago when I experienced the toughest heartbreak I've ever had, and I remember listening to this to try and cope, as well as some of your other songs. Thank you.

haters gonna hate, welcome to internet my friend
@@lordgatopro Yeah, but, why are you gonna dislike a video that you haven't even watched?

@@chartbox6497 i dont know, there are a lot of idiots
Honestly I seem some people making theories about this song, but I personally think its about TLT themselves, specifically about how all their older songs have hundreds of millions of views and how recently (and kind of for a while now) it seems like a lot of fans/listeners have just stopped or moved on. These whole theme would line up with so many lines of the song, and would also match how the game Skull Guy is in keeps changing and adapting. One specific reoccurring thing of the songs video is that all the hearts end up being enemies, and I feel like that could def be how a lot of people will hype up one song, and then ignore the next, creating this false feeling of achievement only to be let down.
Anyways that's my hot take :)
It's a cool theory nonetheless, but it's truly only about a guy I would assume playing video games to distract himself from love. He becomes addicted to video games to not understand how to love someone, hence the dating sim scene. He becomes so consumed with video games, he can't comprehend that he has to have a relationship. Or it's just a catchy song haha
@@RealRickyCrow there's definitely a chance that's the case, but TLT has never really been on the surface with there songs
That's a cool theory, another cool part that lends itself to this theory is that all the games shown are on the older side
Trashchildz yeah, they truly have a story in mind but they kind of put it all around the place to where people can't figure it out
Trashchildz seem right
I can't stop listening to this song. This song literally predicted what happened to me. Like, it was released in early august, and in the late august, the person who I loved for a long time just said that she doesn't like me anymore. Although I didn't even had a chance to discuss my feelings to her. And I feel almost like this character, lost in the world, trying to find the new love and forget about the failed past, but just messing up all the time, and in result find nothing. Thank you for your song.
I wish I could find love but at the same time I'm scared and shy.
hope you find happiness
❤
for me its nowadays, i've lost all ability to feel honestly. i dont know who i am but i dont feel like myself, im in a relationship because i thought it would make me feel at least something but it didn't so i just try to make em happy and serve them. i dont want to date my crush because it'll be the same, i'll feel nothing and i dont want to hurt them
@essoexpresso728 u should break up abd find yourself
okay, the animation in this really kills it for me. it so perfectly encapsulates what it actually feels like to look at and play these different styles of games. its so nostalgic my heart aches! pretty brilliant presentation. cheers! looking forward to everything you release
The sheer skill and effort put into every one of his songs blows me away everytime, Absolutely incredible
EXACTLY
Especially this one
@@calebgarza7010 this one is my favorite of there songs
I physically hurts me when he never gets a heart or messes something up
ouch
dont hurt yourself my man!
Okay...
Same
ikr
As a person who used to date somebody toxic, this song is DEFINITELY what the aftermath of a breakup looks like.
The fact that movies and people glamorize "moving on" and getting the f up, is so frustrating to me. It's not Easy to just "move on" and be alright the next few days. Cuz not only are you left behind by that person, you're Also Traumatized by the fact that the next relationship is gonna end up similarly to that.
The lines from "I am lost in a dream, I can't open my eyes, Never told how to live after I say goodbye to you..." is also one problem when it comes to breakups. You'd feel jaded, lost in the fact that you feel like you're unlovable and knowing that it's not possible to achieve something like that anymore. In turn, you feel stuck in this limbo where you "don't know what it is that you're searching for". It's actually pretty interesting how TLT and the animators used videogames as an example to point out the message of this song.
Overall, I'm actually very happy and shocked that for once, someone showed an even more accurate reality of how it actually feels to not be able to get on with life that easily due to a traumatic love experience. TLT- you're a long-time artist that I've followed, ever since your first song of FNAF and I hope you continue to make more music- You never fail to amaze me along with your teams and colleagues out there.
It’s like the logo for TLT has gotten it’s own lore
Edit: This is some sad lore
Yup!
yeah, the old logo was their old mascot.
@Jerich the Derphog A tombstone. Fantastic.
I miss the old logo tbh
Aero Pandora ik
1:16 Pink Helmet from "Sunburn"
1:34 Painting from "Drunk" The picture with all the faces on it
1:36 Painting from "Epoch" The blue background with the bear holding the flower
Not a TLT reference but 1:37 is a painting of Vinny's meat
(A sort of joke character from Vinesauce)
@@aquaticchaos1717 So that's what that was! Thank you Mr. Aquatic
@@JPTHSKITZO No problem my dude. Also no need to call me that
Also 0:01 FNAF melody on 0.5 speed
I didn’t see that bro
Is anyone gonna talk about how in all of these songs, there's a reference of the previous song? I have quite a theory. I feel like Zero One (shown in the ending of Sunburn) Is an operation for all of these characters to be scripted to meet up, considering we keep seeing these characters in different songs. If this is true, this means we'll have an epic crossover song with Drunk, Love I need, and Sunburn all together. I wonder if more characters will arrive.
is more cuz TLT is making an Album of music, this being the third music of the album, Drunk the first and Sunburn the second
Thanks Einstein
I don’t think this song is even a part of the zero one album
@@TDEnderPlayz ah, well it can go either way
At 1:15 you can see a pink helmet...
can you guys help me find the other easter eggs?
All the references to "retro" games in the video is rather amazingly well done.
It feels weird to see how the PC doesn't pick up the loot
Then you realize
he doesn't want that junk.
He wants love.
Well I'm sure with this song, everyone on the planet loves skull guy now :D
@@cilantromcghee3092 yes. His journey is of noble goal and he is precious! 🥰
No loot, only love.
Not sure how accurate this interpretation is, but this video gives me the impression of self-sabotage. Skull Guy is constantly being offered things he needs, namely love (in the form of heart-shaped items, opportunities to connect with other characters, etc.) but the person controlling him deliberately avoids collecting them, forcing him to keep soldiering on and operating at full capacity when he's exhausted and only hanging on by a thread. He knows he needs the love to succeed, he knows that he's not getting the love he needs, but he's also unable to make himself accept that love. Eventually these tendencies to self-sabotage bleed into sabotaging others, like pushing one of the racers off of the track. He's singing about not getting the love he needs, but its his own tendency to push the people and things he loves away that is causing him to suffer like this. As someone who falls into that trap of self-sabotage and refusing help, sinking deeper into deep dark pits than is really necessary, this video is one of the first visual representations of this feeling that I've come across that really resonates with me.
It sounds like these opportunities keep being pushed to him, but he doesn't want them, because he doesn't want to start a relationship just to fill a void. He doesn't know who he is without a romantic partner, so getting one won't fix the issue
Wow deep
Another thing is the "WRONG WAY" during the racing segment. A recurring theme, now that I think about it. It was in My Ordinary Life, too.
if you listen to the lyrics its about love
@@nikooo1794 However In The Video It Shows Him Seeking Out The Hearts/Love However After The First Couple Times It Gets Taken Away From Him He Eventually Is Hesitant And Is Unable To Approach Love In The Same Way Always Running Away Despite Seeking It
Frend : "Hey have you listened to this yet? Its pretty good."
Me : "Ill be the judge of tha- yeah its pretty good. Intro got me."
pretty good???? Nah fam this is fire
Hace dos años conocí por completo a the living tombstone y no me arrepiento, lo amo.
si es verdad es genial en mi caso yo lo conozco desde hace bastante tiempo
igual no me de nada >:D
yo lo conoci hace unos meses y me arrepiento de no haberlo conocido antes xd
@@CarlosDPena-nn1qt Y si, la verdad que mi infancia hubiera sido 100 veces mejor con The Living Tombstone 🚣♂️🚣♂️
This makes me feel nostalgic to play a game like this but it doesn’t exist.
Evoland is kind of similar
crypt of the necrodancer, made me think of it
actually this was based off of many games, doom, spooky's mansion, um kirby's dreamland maybe?, pokemon, crash bandicoot, the bubble popping mobile games, visual novels, angery birds, asteroid, zelda, some more. most very good games, i recommend them if you want some older games that still hold up today
SangaWanga wait where is spooky mansion
ddreaM I think it was actually just doom but the rooms looked a little like spooky’s mansion so my b I guess
*Everyone is already theorizing* It's about a person is disconnected from reality and has turned to games to deal with it
Me:*funky time*
Skull guy: *Trying to get over feeling lonely and confused about love*
Everyone: Kinda bop tho..
Every single person can relate. And I mean that quite literally.

Chat here in comments: TLT is uploading songs with no hesitation
Live chat comment: E
What a good comunity...
I just realised all these games are single player....... single player........ *OH MY GOD*
Super Mario are multiplayer
Except this one 1:11
singleplayer or solo for multis, either way, he's alone
The Mario Kart one and the Fighting Game aren't single player.
@@bobbychild8529 That might not be mario kart and some retro fighting games like that are not
Skull girl: wanna go on a date?-
Our skull Bro: *Confused screaming*
*walks away*
Can't get over all animation styles. So well done!
For all the people wondering why there are comments before the song comes out:
We've just arrived before the premiere. No, we don't secretly house a time machine in our cellar whatareyoutalkingabout-
Nobody asked anything! But well......
I want a time machine now
But i want one
Guys your all wrong this song is not about relationships and being casted away it’s about a skull guy fighting enemy’s
yes skull true enemy is self loading and lack of confidence to get love
@@chatleslorenzo6164 no its normal enemies not some deep stuff
There’s definitely some lore to all of these. “Chosen” has some kind of hidden meaning. He’s doing something very cool, I just can’t quite figure it out. Must’ve been planning and making these during his break.
Guys we are joking
@@thelordandsaviorgigachadrr888 i dont care if youre joking
Still being a bit of a dick
I have been listening for 7 years, your music, being honest since I started all the fnaf Fanbase, but I found great music on your channel, today my favorite songs without a doubt Becoming Popular and Taking Flight ... Thank you for continuing to make such good music ... Congratulations for those 9 years, I hope there are still many more ahead of listening to more musical gems like this ... Congratulations! And Thank You...
Aw man, I remember when this song first came out qwq feels like so long ago. Still love it to this day
EACH of your original songs has been an addictive BOP I’ve had on repeat. The animations are entertaining and engaging, the lyrics are catchy as HECK, and I keep leaving them on repeat for hours. I already love this one on my second listen. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOUR CHANNEL!!!! 🧡💀🧡💀🧡
Keep up the good stuff you funky little gravestone- but also take breaks when you want/need!
This hits on a spiritual level. We don't deserve TLT, but we need TLT. This man be going deeeeeep with his songs, and it is nothing short of beautiful.
the new TLT patern™
1st listen: meh the song is ok
2nd listen: oh! this song has a REALLY good rhythm!
3rd listen: *singing along*
That was me with sunburn
How did you read my mind >:v
@@weetoes4328 we with literally every tlt song
it's called the TLT effect aha
it happened with me and the alastor song
Sunburn, Alastors Game, and this... Drunk was perfect from the beginning though
This song hits hard because I can relate so much to it! 🥲 masterpiece
People who disliked this don’t get the love they need anymore
The people who disliked are the reason why he needs love...
I think
wtf i lov this comment
Bruh shut up
I liked it because I don’t get the love I need anymore lol
Probably hit too close to home.
so what i understand is:
the person is trying to find love (represented by the hearts he is trying to achieve and the hp always in 1) in different relationships (represented by the sudden change of games) and him always being afraid (represented by him entering in the dark room in "zelda", jumping in the hole in "mario", entering the cave in what is think it's "warcraft" and running away in "pokemon" and the dating sim) or being hurt by a toxic relationship (represented by him dying in the beat 'em up game, getting various ambushes in "doom", slippering in the race game, falling in the rpg game, losing in the puzzle game and not winning the space shooter game after destroying the heart) and then by not being loved enough, he finally succumbs and gives up (falls asleep)
I think that was shovel knight, not Mario
Nobody:
TLT: *MASS PRODUCTION FOR THE PEOPLE*
This song has really been resonating with me recently. I went through my first breakup a few months ago and it was only after I left them that I realised how emotionally dependent I had become. I loved being with them, it made me happier than I ever had been before. I had convinced myself fully that we were going to be forever, so when I left it felt like the future I had hoped for just faded before my eyes. I feel aimless and I’m afraid of facing the world alone.
Update: Been going strong with somebody new for over a year now. Safe to say I’ve fully moved on from my ex and am much happier with my new partner. To anybody going through a breakup, hang in there, you will find the love you deserve
Hey, how are you doing now?
@@neferov Way better actually. I recently met somebody new and I feel even more comfortable with them than my last partner. Even though they live abroad, they came to visit me within the first couple of weeks of being together and we’re already planning another visit in April. I don’t think I’ve been happier than I am now in a hell of a long time.
Thanks for asking :3
