U were right about the transitioning through the movie to different grades, each song is a new grade actually:) like start: wheels on the bus end:recess that's why there's 12 songs in the album!
@@-shining.star-yess!! And also the hairstyles symbolise each year! :D
I love the principal because you can interpret the refrain at the end of the chorus as "where's the principal" as in where is the leader figure when you need one, but it can also be understood as "where's the principle" as in where are your morals, it's brilliant
Right!! I love that. Same thing with Drama Club. You can interpret it as drama going on in highschool, your life, etc. And like a whole group of people gossiping or you can interpret it as acually being in a play and having set roles they expect you to play. ( like man going out to work while women stay home to cook for him)
Also in the principle it talks about online fights wich really hints to who she wrote it about.
Yeeee
yess!! that's exactly why she chose it as an interlude for the trilogy tour when the screen projected sayings for the current situation in palestine. she feels that people lose all their morals when faced with terrible situations like that
I just noticed that in "Show and Tell" when the doll is thrown, and her guts are showing, that is showing how whenever she is exposed, or vulnerable in a way, everyone that once liked her, left and said "Gross." Which shows how you can't show a weakness or vulnerability in a popularity position
I think of it as like when she opens up and tells ppl what she did wrong or what they did that they feel bad about or just confess stuff or etc and they’re like “Ew! Gross!” Which is why she says she doesn’t wanna be thrown away like a banana peel because when celebrities or famous people tell people they’re also human their fans dont wanna be fans anymore, because some fans are like: “OH SHE CANT DO ANY WRONG” and stuff like that so when she opens up abt it they dont like her anymore.
You were right when you said "it's like they're going through different grades as the movie goes on" that's exactly what's happening. Hence the different hairstyles each scene and the name of the album "k-12"; kindergarten through 12th grade
Love this movie 😊👍
Yeah bc on show and tell when she walks in the chalk board says 3rd grade class
Im surprised you didn't catch the end of "Show And Tell'. They finally see the inside and don't want her anymore as in she opens up and speaks about how she feels and the people are like "ew gross" and ignore her. that's why she says "Im scared that i'll get thrown away like a banana peel."
It also shows another meaning. Show and Tell tells us that she doesn't want to be on display all the time but if she doesn't, she thinks she will get thrown away and forgotten about. So when she is thrown and sees her insides they get grossed out and bored in a way, they aren't entertained anymore
It shows that some people need attention or they feel like they are nothing, this is how I see it along with Mel being famous and how she feels about it
I might be wrong but I always thought them literally tearing apart the principal was a metaphor for them taking apart/dismantling the systems in place/power that create these toxic environments.
I kinda saw it as Cancel Culture. They got rid of someone who did bad things only for another bad person to take his place..
Good point!😊👍
wait that’s actually an interesting analogy-
Thats exactly how it is. She realises they wont listen to her and nothing will change after she makes her case. the problem is THE SYSTEM that shes trying to plead to so she destroys it. In the dramaclub song she makes people unionize to get rid of the toxic leader but a new one comes to his place anyways, yet another hint at the fact that trying to make the system work is useless if the whole thing is faulty
@@goldenapple3952 very cool! Thanks for the comments😊
I've seen K-12 many times. But I just realized those ghosts weren't adults. Those ghosts were kids that have be trapped at the school!
OML I ALWAYS WAS SO CONFUSED ABT THAT TYSM
as for rabbits, they occupy a special place in her work. Her first pet was a rabbit, which she later gave to her friend who also had a rabbit, she gave it away because she bought a dog and her parents apparently didn't let her keep two animals. After some time, her rabbit was found without a head (I don’t remember how it happened, she talked about this in one of the interviews and she has a tattoo dedicated to this rabbit)
OMG!!! That’s sad😢😢
Her friends rabbit decapitated Melanie's rabbit
@@scarlet2433 😳😳😳😢😢😢
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial yeah☹️😭
@@scarlet2433 _HOW THE _*_FU-_* 😱😱
BUNNIES ARE *SCARY* 😭😭😭
Each song actually corresponds to each grade in school: Wheels on the bus is kindergarten, class fight is first grade, and so on
I love it! Thank you!😊
As a bully victim i used to escape to the nurses office, the security staff used to let me hang out with them, other teachers let me hang out in their classes during my lunch and I skipped classes I had to walk near her to get to. It was hell. She does a good job.
Wheels On The Bus = Kindergarten
Class Fight = 1st Grade
The Principal = 2nd Grade
Show & Tell = 3rd Grade
Nurse's Office = 4th Grade
Drama Club = 5th Grade
Strawberry Shortcake = 6th Grade
Lunchbox Friends = 7th Grade
Orange Juice = 8th Grade
Detention = 9th Grade
Teacher's Pet = 10th Grade
Highschool Sweethearts = 11th Grade
Recess = 12th Grade
Sorry if anyone else has said this already but I have some thoughts about the part at 16:56. I always thought the meaning of the doll’s intestines being shown at the end was a metaphor for cancel culture in a sense. That she “spilled her guts” so to speak, was vulnerable and shared how she truly felt, but ended up disgusting others and was still was tossed aside. Another clue to this for me was the lyric “It’s really hard for me to say just how I feel, I’m scared that I’ll get thrown away like a banana peel”.
That scene is a reference that when the person that you "love" so much is needing help you don't like more of her
Yeah, the second you reveal you act human just like everybody else and are not this picture perfect idol, they don’t want you anymore
The principal song was mostly for Donald Trump, and she felt about him being the president
Biden isn’t any better sadly.
@Aqsa Ashrafi yeah I know well the song can be for both of them
@@Gamer-Girl2744 people with a conscience have never been and never will be at the head of absolutely any country, because not a single person with a conscience wants power. Unfortunately, people are not very willing to develop morally, which is why they continue to be driven by greed and sick ideas.
Glad to get that little Easter egg😊
@@alishaaaax 🤡
In case others haven't said this yet on Patreon or whevever else but the blue drink that killed the principal is basically poison Crybaby made, which she changed his regular booze with it when she turned her powers on, and was referenced back in Tag You're It/Milk and Cookies double feature where we first sort of shown that blue drink=poison. As for the rabbit, it has its own story with Melanie in her childhood which is why she chose that off all animals but in relation to the Crybaby universe, bunnyheads are doctors. It's a theme of the universe I guess is one way to say it.
Makes sense! Thank you so much!😊👍
16:45 - "Show and Tell."
When he said, "Oh, look at the inside," with a disgusted look. I FINALLY understood the message of why she made the doll's organs come out.
She's basically saying her "inside" is imperfect, and in the scene where all the children immediately backed off and said "gross," there is a symbolism, as once the students (which symbolize how the "audience" and "society') saw the celebrity for who she actually was and not the "perfect" version of who society painted them as to be, but once the celebrity revealed that they are just a person who also has imperfection ("the organs") just like everyone else , the audience immediately backed off in disgust because society want to put celebrity in a box like a perfect doll and if the perfect doll reveal a bit of something that the society painted as "imperfection" , they will be thrown to the ground or thrown away like rubbish.
"organs" = "how she looked inside/ her imperfection / who she TRULY is behind the mask of a celebrity. "
*"Everyone has organs"* = "everyone has their own *Imperfection* "
Everyone is the same , even celebrities as they are just human like us , they have organs just like us , they have their imperfection JUST LIKE US.
YOU NEED MORE LIKES

This is such an amazing movie to watch for mental health awareness. Every song on this album is so important for everyone but especially for young people to talk about! Thanks!
Appreciate you Andy😊👍
They way I was screaming ITS THE SUPREME COURT!! And then you got it lol so satisfying. Love her metaphors
Thank you so much! I’m loving this movie!😊👍
I started crying when you started talking about Show & Tell cause I realized that as that doll was lying there, Too exhausted to even stand up
And then when the people who exhausted her saw her at her lowest and most vulnerable They just said "That's gross"- like... "No down time, Fix yourself and stand up or we'll walk away"
I am so glad that I'm not the only 45 year old white man listening to this music and appreciating the brilliance in her writing❤
I think the part where it shows the doll’s insides are a metaphor for people saying they don’t like Melanie once she expresses her true emotions and feelings or shows who she truly is on the inside.
I know Melanie is just our darling little gem who is doing her own thing and reinventing a musoc scene that pays her no mind, but god her work makes me wish she did acting outside of her own work. I dont want ANYONE to mistreat or take advantage of her, and enjoy that shes gone a more independant route so she can have full creative control over her art and life, but she would be such a fun addition to any cast. I guess ill just appriciate the stuff she gives us even more.
Nurse's Office is just a perfect song.
Back to school days, I used to fake injuries and pain to go home because of hatred in my class and fights. I lied that I feel myself bad, my heart hurts or something to have a permission to quit school for a day, sometimes more. I'm not proud for that but that worked
ty for the video
“Is it common to feel the physical pain of this world at the age of 13/14?
Yes👍
15:54 I don’t think that cut was supposed to represent self harming I think it’s the cut Kelly gave her earlier in the playground
That's what I came to say!
I know I’m late but I think the cut represents to show how she’s the same as everyone else and thinks why they treat her differently from everyone else when she’s the same as everyone from the inside and to show she’s a human and not just some product for society as she says In the song
I love his take on it because he’s pointed out stuff I haven’t noticed even after watching it multiple times
For the end of show and tell when her stomach is ripped open and you can see inside her. I always interpreted as being they can see inside her and showing them her true self that she is a human and a person. But as you could see in the seen they say “ew gross” like they don’t want to acknowledge she is human and like them. She is just entertainment for them.
The hair changes represent each school year, (aside from special outfits for dance sequences like in the Principal)
Drama club is the best song in K-12 in my opinion bc it literally gives me chills and one part it sounds like children are singing along with her and it’s the part they kill the principal very violently soo..(I also take drama classes so it sounds funny for me to say “I never signed up for your drama club” in the middle of class lol:)
So cool! Can’t wait to react to that😊👍
Wow, yes.
Recess and nurses office have the same instrumental and the instrumental only plays when she’s in danger carsoul, nurses office, recess, her newest song pluto
I think it’s interesting to also note how Christina Aguilera treated her during her time on the voice.
Christina was probably just jealous by her and tried to take her down
u have no idea how much I needed this I’m not gonna traumadump but I haven’t had the best day 💀😭 so tyy and pls keep up w the Mel reactions even after k-12 she has songs w very deep meaning in her crybaby and after school album/ep also mrs harpers scene was mostly to show how terrible of a boss/principal the principal is :))
Thank you so much for watching😊👍
I love the part when Melanie Martinez said:what if i told your mom her son was a cruel Motherfucker" i love that part sm
The principal : Melanie's thoughts about D. Trump (the movie was made in 2019)
Show & Tell: struggles of being an artist nowadays
Nurses Office:
When I think of the song Show and Tell I think of what some people say about Melanie, "Melanie deserves her fans, it's her fans that don't deserve her." Which is saying that Melanie deserves all her fame, fortune, and fans but her don't deserve her because a lot of them are just mean and rude. There is a video of 2 people and Melanie and one was recording her without asking while the other was taking pictures of her when she said to stop which is where I think the "people are taking pictures of me when I ask no more" there are so many of her "fans" that take pictures of her without asking and recording her without asking. I find it so sad that some people think ok to do that to her.
She took “Why don’t the students just fight the teachers? It’s like 300 versus 30.” To another level in drama club 😭🙏
The way the nurses moved reminded me of silent hill
while watching the show and tell music video, i noticed that the dance also implies she never gets a break, as whenever the puppet "falls over" it gets pulled back up
I was at Melanie’s concert when she was doing K-12 tour and to performed Show and Tell she had this whole huge box thing where she was standing pretending she’s a puppet and then for Drama Club she did the exact same choreography with ironing clothes and stuff like in the movie! I was SO impressed
Show and tell was about how social media and when she says "there are stranger taking pictures me when I ask no more" its when the paparazzi or even people in general take pictures when they dont ask for permission and just put a camera in there face.
I think show and tell is about Melanie talking about how she feels being a celebrity like "people taking pictures of me when i ask no more" like paparazzis
i believe the cut during show and tell isnt self harm but instead the cut the bully left on her arm ☺️
16:00 here he’s talking abt having a place to be vulnerable, and i had a thought along the lines of is that why alot of gen z is so ‘addicted’ to the internet seeing as most are in school like high school, or even college at this point int (i think).being on the internet gives them a MUCH easier chance ti find someone they can relate to, or even share problems with.The internet aslo gives them a place to be vulnerable with people who are in similar situations without places like school reporting it to parents who get concerned and then might just take that childs privileges away, kr smthing similar to it.
I love the bridge in the principal, the lyrics are so meaningful
12:10 I wanted to add on that, because sometimes teachers humiliate weak students and spotlight them. they use us as examples of things they don't like about us and teach the kids around us to bully. They know the influence they have as adults and still continue to bully young children for their own self-worth.
Show and Tell is also her message to toxic fans, saying human too. (if you didn't know ^ ^)
I feel like the part when the puppet is on the floor and everyone says ew is what happens when you show your true self to others
Amazing reaction and commentary! Super excited for part 3 🥰💕
Thanks so much!👍
At 2:33 the kid with the glue has an unreleased song called gluestick the meaning of thw song is trying to tell peoplebyour problems and letting the truth come out the in movie lore is that he is being abused by his mother
The way the scene would be better if that song was there
I like how in “the principle” its almost like melanie at the school in pigtails if imagining what she would do to stop other principles like her’s to be hired. And then Melanie with the short curly hair is her actually doing it in the future because she looks more mature
When they say, go back to the beginning with the bunnies they mean her music videos before this. On RUclips there is a compilation of music videos called the crybaby movie about an hour long that weren’t technically meant to be a movie but still preceded the K-12 movie 👍🏽
15:51 it isnt self harm, its the cut that she got from class fight from kelly
My favorite is when a song starts and he goes “yeah,yeah,yeah!”
I usually can’t watch long format videos like this but for some reason you are amazing at keeping me intrigued and interested in your content. Amazing job.
Would love to see you react to her first album and all the music videos! (The chronological order is online)
Also her performance of Toxic and Crazy on the voice (which was her doorway into fame)
The cut on her arm was something they kept from the class fight song, when Kelly stabbed her.
"you are immortal." "but we're exhausted!" "we dont want to feel this anymore.." Exactly. A lot of people when asked what superpower they would want would probably say Immortality and sure immortalitys cool, until you start outliving everybody you care about. To me it feels a lot like having pets. Its awesome to have a pet but you will (almost always) end up outliving them and it can get very painful and exhausting, especially if you've had multiple pets over the years. (can also relate it to being the youngest sibling or just relating it to parents too tbh)
wow this was a long comment lol
The cut on her arm is from class fight. (When kelly and crybaby were levitating)
After this you should definitely watch the crybaby album! K-12 is so good but crybaby is my personal favorite

This is the best reaction to this film 🥰 thank you ❤
Thank you!😊❤️
30:02 SHE *_BURNED_* THE PLASTIC *_OFF_** HIS **_FACE_* 😈😈😈😈
You were right about show and tell that was about: pressure of being famous
15:47 i think its something else, in part 1, ‘class fight’ the «mean girl» cut crybabys arm, during their «fight» and i think she added that, just so in one scene there was a scar, but in the next one, there wasnt
So i think its more of the fight than sh
by the way, in show and tell, the cut is from class fight
Thank you so much for reacting to melanie 🥰 She is an amazing artist fr
Show and Tell was abt famous ppl who can’t rlly say their feelings like when she said ,, There are Persons taking pictures of me when I ask not to,, And the I’m like you you’re like me is for ppl that are famous and ppl that aren’t!!!!
12:26 a good representation of this is a streamer called caseoh and how people bully him call him rude things but he still has to put up with it like nothing happened.
"Whatever that liquid was"
My dumb ahh self: *M* *O* *U* *T* *H* *W* *A* *S* *H*
Melanie had a pet rabbit who’s head was found in a yard but I’ve also heard rabbits having something to do with the afterlife such as leading you to the light type of thing. I could be off about the second part. But I’m also not to certain about why she uses them in her vids.
Thank you!👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial thank you? for telling a story about a decapitaited rabbit
@@ashleygerst72 he is telling them thank you for giving him that info
Show and tell kinda talks about being a celeb like “harsh words if you don’t get a pic with me”
i feel so related to crybaby cause im a bully victim and i only have two friends cause all my other friends left me to join the "cool kids group" so melanie has helped me get through it❤
I like that in nurses office, the nurses inject Angelica with a needle to give her the alcohol, but forced crybaby/melanie to drink it. It’s like a way to symbolize how crybaby’s mother is an alcoholic
20:06 is the time stamp
I think the chalk with the teacher in part one was refrence to coke 😭
Im literally crying cause Melanie and lots of other celebs who provide content ans theyre just treated horribly even by their fans who constantly demand more 😭😭 she just released void music video and already on her Instagram are comments saying "release tunnel vision" do more do this do that. So ungrateful and horrible they listen to her music but dont learn anything from it. I dont envy celebs at all because i could never deal with that sort of pressure and abuse. Plus we dont even know what goes on with her handlers/media perspective they are probably just as bad.
2:06 this made me cry to see people are like this in the fucking world
Yeah… its sad that they dont let teachers who want to change, change…
not sure if you realized but the beat of nurses office, recess, and carousel are very similar to Plutos beat! its a little easter egg
I'm just now realizing that her song drama club is like a response to haters.
Also I’m pretty sure show and tell is about the paparazzi and having no privacy after she became famous
i’m pretty sure the cut on her arm that you were mentioning in show and tell is from kelly back in class fight ( also the portals album is more on melanie’s character crybaby if you were interested in that..)
I feel like at the end of show and tell, when they say “gross” and walk away, it’s like when celebrity does something that actually shows that they are human too and not perfect people don’t like it
Fine I’ll rewatch K-12. I’ve watched it like a million times and it never gets boring lmao
Loved this reaction and the way you broke it down
Basicly tom here is some lore for you, so you now after the nurses office song, a lady said a about her being reborn, and in a different song in a k-12 movie, angelita and crybaby talk about how they could be conjoined twins in another life. Now she is in her portals era with the pink alien, and it shows dead crybaby, AND NEW MELANIE HAS 2 PAIRS OF EYES AND EARS.., so i think thats angelita and crybaby❤
I don't think the cut on show in tell represents self harm I think she kept it because if you recall Kelly aka (the bully) did cut her in class fight..
That’s right, thank you for the reminder👍
Could’ve been either way, honestly 🫤
Thank you for coming back to this series I love your videos and your reactions are so good and mel is my fav artist
I’m just excited for the realism vs idealism reaction for $uicideboys
Coming out tomorrow!
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial cant wait! Lots of love from Australia
BE MY DAD/GRAMPA/UNCLE IDC WITCH JUST ONE PLEASE😭😭😭
when I was in 7th grade I got bullied so I would go to the guidance office all the time ( like the nurse )
I relate to nurse office
At the show and tell part I still saw the cut that Kelly made
The fact that the principal is about trump is gonna blow my dads mind and he’s probably gonna be a fan of her
Same here 😂
Show and tell was about people always looking for a scape goat 😭🙏🏽
And also I love the principal song Because Melanie Martinez in that song is so good at rhyming she might as well be a rhyme Smith sorry bad joke
The liquid in the principal is the same from milk and cookies. And this liquid killed the wold in Milk and cookies. Maybe everything is bound together
The Principal is also a very political song “prescription pills and online fights” it’s an attack on Trump.
Show and tell is mostly about her and her fans. Like when she says “strangers are taking pictures of me when I ask no more. It’s really hard for me to say just how I’ll feel. I’m scared I’ll get thrown away like a banana peel.” It’s also kinda a message for us as her fans to stop doing that
I don’t think the cut on the arm was from self harm, I think it was from when Kelly cut her arm at recess.
Playdough is delishious
Actually, the cut on her arn in show and tell was from when kelly cut her.
6:02 just marking lol
honestly i love the principal because its like very obviously about trump
At this point we all know that Tom is secretly a Melanie Stan 😂
It’s not even a secret at this point LOLL
