Normal? I mean if you don't understand the words to begin with you are unlikely to notice anything wrong. You may even use some of these phrases and never trust the internet again, or at least not for a while
In general for word artists, it's natural to put together things comprehensively such as lyrics, but putting something where, essentially none of the words are supposed to associate with one another, in mostly any way, much less natural, and could be quite a mental exercise.
@@CountWondermann Just wanted to thank you for your comment, I had completely forgotten about this video. Its a nice flash of nostalgia for old RUclips
I'm infamous for knowing many hard to remember songs by heart, including Yakko's World from the Animaniacs, Albuquerque by Weird Al Yankovic and the PokéRap from the Pokémon anime, among others. This'll probably be up next. Wish me luck.
Abundant is in here twice (first around 1:05 and then later to rhyme with *redundant* of all things) and I think that's the cleverest thing I've seen in a long, long time.

I saw this in 2006 my first semester of 9th grade (it must have been uploaded under another channel because I clearly remember it being 2006). It was one of the videos that made me realize youtube was the next big frontier of media. Amazingly enough after 15 years this is still one of the best videos on the site. Thank you for your creativity and talent.
Used to think there was some kind of story behind this, was never sure what it was. Now I realize that Neil just listed off words he likes. That’s good too.
So me and my friend memorized 90% of this song back in high school around 13 years ago and I found myself wanting to hear the full song again after running through it in my head and getting stuck on "underneath hilarious oxymoron claws". After hearing "rectangular" the rest of the song came back and I was very pleased. Just wanted to say congrats on making a song that sticks out in my head as incredibly unique and fun. "I've got some falling to do" is also a classic :)
same! not sure what it is about this song but if you learn the lyrics once, they flood right back once you start singing it. the bit with "space love weird etc" was always too fast for me to even attempt though.
@@user-xh6cg7zf9h yeah the only part i sing/ think abt in the fast bit is "melt (other voice) clear () weird () love" kinda near the end because i like the way he says clear and weird loll. oh and antidisestablishmentarianism at the end its just a fun word to say
my favorite line from lemon demon has to be "Enemy Lasagna", It's really hard to dissociate words, I am very impressed that Neil could think of so many random things together and memorize it and make it into a whole 4-minute song.
Coming back to earth from disassociating, put the "disassociation" in to youtube hoping to find something distracting/memey, and this came up. Nostalgia in the perfect way
FYI: don't visit the URL at the end, especially not if you're in a public place, it's a fake "dirty Tinder" site with full frontal nudity. Looks like Neil didn't hang on to that domain and some domain squatter got hold of it EDIT: Ignore, this is no longer the case.
"The song is by my musical project, Lemon Demon. " Wow, you make it sound smaller then it is. You're too modest Mr. Neil. You're a musical genius. I wish I could write songs... then again, that's not my talent. Keep making music, you guys are amazing. Your videos are also outstanding. I like your style, using some modern instruments to make comedy music that has a... unique sound.
Well I'm just assuming here, but because word disassociation is all about saying words that have nothing to do with eachother, I guess neil just picked words that have no correlation. No idea about how he made it so rhythmic in a way.
@@Filipokerface Actually, it was me. Couldn't help myself, it was just so flouncy! Anyway, I have an abundant collection of various such things, so it was rather redundant; you can have it back in return for some creamy helium.
+Margreet Brands considering how the song makes it hard to remember the order of the words, you should be proud of it, just try not to think about how many times you have to listen for it to be so ingrained >< spidery concubine :D
The other day on the monorail playing, was Mr. Advertisement Suitcase. It was about an apprehensive engineer trying to recover the bionic ruby from Enemy Lasagna, the leader of a flouncy, panicky, redundant group calling themselves the Agnostic Oppressive Wall. I remember there was one guy with a platypus parosol who was sketching creamy helium while eating paleobotanical backwards licorice. But my favorite lines have to be "Porridge brain!" & "Quickly, antidisestablishmentarianism!" Overall it was a great movie, I'd say it could melt clear weird love.

Hey man! You will never understand how much positivity your music has brought to my life. Those early days of internet culture before geeks had value, before followers, likes, and the influence of social media, your music helped me feel not alone, it let me connect, it left room for hope, it made me feel okay being weird. Thank you.
Man, you are genuinely a creator without equal. I can't imagine the internet in a world without Neil and the memes are hardly even the tip of an awesome iceberg. Every once in awhile I stumble onto a new piece of content that's been out there for years I've somehow missed and it's always a joy. Thanks for being you, Neil. There's no one else who can do it.
no matter how many times I see this, i'm impressed at the effectiveness of it! i did media in college for 4 years and this trumps all my classmates in one project ;) great work and, here, nearly ten years on, it's still good!
I watched this as a kid in the early 2000s on blacksheep. To this day I still use "word disassociation" as a focal point in my mind. I am so happy that the video is still around. ❤
If I had a nickel for everytime I saw an unintentional reference to Among Us on an old Neil Cicierega music video I would have two nickels. It's not allot but it's weird that it happened twice.
why is this vid like legitimately kinda timeless though? prolly just the perks of making weird ass content but damn this feels like it couldve been released today honestly
I can't describe how happy it's made me that a friend linked this in a discussion about Lemon Demon in a Discord server I'm in. I had *no* idea this Neil Cicierega everybody was talking about was actually *the* Lemon Demon! I went on a nostalgia trip and found The Ultimate Showdown but I couldn't stop the nagging feeling that there was something else that defined that era watching Newgrounds videos with my friends as a teen even more. And then they linked this. And I was transported right back there to that time of a simpler internet and slower memes and having favourite nonsense word combinations we would latch onto. I'm not sure I would've ever thought of this again if that person hadn't linked it, and I'm so damn grateful. :) Alright, sending this to my oldest friend now, who I used to enjoy this song with, so much, so she can get the same blast from the past nostalgia feeling.
I remember when youtube was a thing my friends were yelling at me for not “getting on” and it brought me to this. 15 years ago. Also, Dan Deacon’s “Crystal Cat” … back when the “top played” sidebar was king
I continue to love this song years after first seeing it, primarily because I LOVE the video. The song is funny and catchy, but the sheer number of creative and fun and well-timed ways you introduce the words is what keeps me coming back. =D Great job!
it took me 3 and a half minutes to realize that a playlist glitch happened where the comments of one video are replacing the comments of another this is likely going into the comments section of word disassociation, although the song im /actually/ listening to is "the rain formerly known as purple' this site is weird
The junk drawer at 2:11 contains a gold Rhotuka spinner. This means my man Neil owned Iruini. And I'm one of only a few thousand people today who could make that connection based solely on the video evidence. And just like that, life is beautiful.

why is this vid like legitimately kinda timeless though? prolly just the perks of making weird ass content but damn this feels like it couldve been released today honestly
i wanna play this for a non-english speaker and tell them it's hamilton
the mildly vintage, cluttered vibe makes this look like an I SPY book
Back when the internet was still cute. I have to come back to this every now and then.
I can't describe how happy it's made me that a friend linked this in a discussion about Lemon Demon in a Discord server I'm in. I had *no* idea this Neil Cicierega everybody was talking about was actually *the* Lemon Demon! I went on a nostalgia trip and found The Ultimate Showdown but I couldn't stop the nagging feeling that there was something else that defined that era watching Newgrounds videos with my friends as a teen even more.
And then they linked this.
And I was transported right back there to that time of a simpler internet and slower memes and having favourite nonsense word combinations we would latch onto. I'm not sure I would've ever thought of this again if that person hadn't linked it, and I'm so damn grateful. :) Alright, sending this to my oldest friend now, who I used to enjoy this song with, so much, so she can get the same blast from the past nostalgia feeling.
I remember when youtube was a thing my friends were yelling at me for not “getting on” and it brought me to this. 15 years ago. Also, Dan Deacon’s “Crystal Cat” … back when the “top played” sidebar was king
i love knowing these stories
1:38 anime characters trying to speak English in Japanese dub
TRUE
I continue to love this song years after first seeing it, primarily because I LOVE the video. The song is funny and catchy, but the sheer number of creative and fun and well-timed ways you introduce the words is what keeps me coming back. =D Great job!
Wait why does Neil have a Nick Jr logo on his channel
why the fuck not
He likes to give off some sort of a nostalgia feeling sometimes. Like the average nerd.
MGPLyrics it used to be his icon

It's gone now.
i love the like 5 live action lemon demon music videos out there
father dethrone applied is the most powerful thing i’ve heard
If you listen to this after doing word association in therapy, it undoes it through pemdas and you have anxiety again
it took me 3 and a half minutes to realize that a playlist glitch happened where the comments of one video are replacing the comments of another
this is likely going into the comments section of word disassociation, although the song im /actually/ listening to is "the rain formerly known as purple'
this site is weird
I get that sometimes, it doesn't update the whole page of your internet is slow
The junk drawer at 2:11 contains a gold Rhotuka spinner.
This means my man Neil owned Iruini. And I'm one of only a few thousand people today who could make that connection based solely on the video evidence.
And just like that, life is beautiful.
When I inevitably disassociate for the first time this is gonna be playing in my head with all the words replaced with vague mumbling
all jokes aside, this song slaps
Agreed
why is this the most catchy thing I have ever heard?
1:23 I wonder if Neil still has that accordion
Fun fact: that's the accordion he played pumpkin pie and ode to crayola
this is great for testing what side of your headphones is left or right [the piano plays on the left side]
I love how Neil put his name down but not put his name as the song maker like lemon demon and Neil are two different people
Here I am managing linked lists in C# and I'm so tired that upon initiating a "while" loop, I was reminded of 1:54 of this song I haven't heard in 10+ years.
Cant believe Neil invented music videos
0:45 The cat from the cover of Spirit Phone
either that or neil really likes siamese cats
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the same cat though, neil seems like the type of guy to keep one cat for such a long time
Neil in 2005/6 looks like what Bo Burnham looks like nowadays.
oh god you're right-
I showed the video to a friend and he thought it was an old video from Bo Burnham haha
