I get it, because everyone looks the same in the place that he came from, Roger desires to become multiple unique and interesting individuals instead of just sticking with one easy to manage persona who is as common as any other human. He could just dress as an accountant named Bob forever but instead chooses to be a troublemaker named Ricky Spanish or a psychic named Zelda in favor of standing out. Of course he would still be Bob sometimes for the sake of being different, but the important part is that he stands out from everyone else.
This episode raised my opinion of Jeff immensely. Before this, I really didn't like him at all, but he's shown here as a multi dimensional, complex and sympathetic character. I liked him a lot more after I saw this. And of course, this song kicks ass.
@@CresentMoon18 they only showed the bad memories. there was a lot of good ones that they purposely didn't show so that they could well if you watched the episode you know... but yeah they purposely only showed the bad memories. i've been coming back to this bc this song has been stuck in my head for days now. its so catchy.
Saw this episode for first time on adult swim last night. It feels like they put a lot more effort into this one random episode than any other. This felt less like an American Dad episode and more like a short film.
@@puppyhowler It was never intended to be a movie, that's false info, but yeah, there's no arguing that it's a great episode. American Dad has lots of episodes that give off this vibe or are wholesome. Almost all of the Christmas episodes in the series, The Tearjerker mini series, The One That Got Away, Rapture's Delight, May the Best Stan Win, Hot Water (albeit the shitty ending ruined the overall episode), Steve and Snot's Test Tubular Adventure, The Longest Distance Relationship, The Unincludeds, Fart-Break Hotel, Great-Space Roaster, The Two Hundred, Rabbit Ears and A Star is Reborn. Of course there's many more incredible episodes but those give off the biggest 'movie' vibes.
The “how badly” is inaccurate because later it is revealed in that episode that king had the memory showcasing monster deliberately leave out the good memories of him being a great BF.
@@idreadFell365 he’s nice, and does do nice things for Hayley and I love them as a couple, but he’s often in his own world so he can also be inconsiderate while not noticing (“HE TOOK ALL THE SYRUP FRANCINE”) and in this moment he’s forced to confront how that’s affected Hayley. And it’s SAD to him. Because he’s a good person who genuinely loves Hayley. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t care about being confronted with that behaviour, he’d be like “so what? I’m not that bad and if I am, I don’t care” He clearly wasn’t fully aware of how regularly he’s been inconsiderate, and when he SEES IT, that hurts BECAUSE he cares. So yeah there’s a lot of good in that relationship, undervalue might be the wrong word for the consistent inconsiderate behaviour due largely to him not paying attention rather than being deliberately cruel
3 minutes of pure magic. the song is a masterpiece and you just can't get enough of it, but the scene is even better, with all the love, regret and sorrow painted on jeff's face. thank you american dad
I think Family Guy is just doesn't work when it's serious that was a show based on gags and shock humor like South Park early seasons was purely based on shock humor alone and when that formula was dipping the evolved I think Family Guy stucked to what worked and it's stagnated and when it tried to evolve into something more people didn't take it real serious. They have those "deep" episodes and like them or hate them they don't really work for the context of the show.
I've actually found Seth to be really good at writing. It's just that he does so much voice acting that as he said he doesn't even write his own shows. Watch the episode where he got challenged to make no cutaway in family guy. Best episode it ever had. It's the one where Stevia and Brian discuss suicide. And episodes like this series with the Jeff's gone he wrote more of. He mostly voice acts
The fact they created this monster and named it just so they could use this song is why the American Dad team are the best. I'd never heard this song before but I'm now obsessed
We can all talk about how great this episode was but WAX FANG need so much credit for this amazing song! They also have so many more bangers and I'm glad American dad used them as it allowed me to find a band I really love
This whole episode, if extended by maybe 30-45 minutes, would make a fantastic standalone movie. It's perfect, American Dad has always been a special show with a staff that cares unlike Family guy where things like "character development" or "plot" or basic goddam consistency doesn't exist...
Consistency? The pilot episode of American dad shows stan meeting Roger and taking him home for the first time. SEVERAL episodes throughout the series show Roger having been there for years prior though. Thats just one example.
@@amyschildgamerlive4519 Compared to a lot of shows, like Family Guy, it's more consistent and often times there's explanations for inconsistencies.

Good old human psychology. You mongrels are discussing nonsense, its as inconsistent as family guy, no need to try and make a tierlist out of it, just watch the series again
You're right...its horrible probably the worst time of my life. But luckily I had a moment like Jeff where he gets to see the good things he did for Haley.
haha, right? then having it ALL displayed on a giant screen for everyone to see, like everyone is gathered to watch you see yourself being a piece of shit.
This scene helped me find the song which helped me go through a bad relationship and ultimately found out i didn't need to be sad if " there was never anything there in the first place"
It's good catharsis. We all know the feeling when someone special don't treat us as well as we deserve. Jeff went on trial and feel repentant, on their behalf, for us to see.

@@mihaelabanu1091 the line is actually "awful majestic" awful in this case being used as an adverb and intensifier for majestic. Awful / awfully is commonly used this way in the place of another word such as very. "awful majestic" meaning very majestic or extremely majestic, etc.
I just love that everything bad in the Smith family is caused by Roger. Here it was twice (he pushing Jeff onto the ship and him cheating on the leader so he doesn’t believe in true love)
But then again the stuff that happens is also their fault as well because just a few episodes after this roger gets the power to see into the future and they disregarded him as a person and only cared about what he could do for them
@Sammy Butler either way, he's always the main cause of chaos. If they ever end the show, it should be them getting rid of Roger in a sad similar type of way.
@@eddiethemexiii The Smith family and those around them have proven themselves to be unlimited sources of chaos on their own, if anything Roger anchors them with his absurdity and the fact he runs things all around them and is around every corner. Without Roger more than one of these characters would be like Peter Griffin or other Family Guy characters off doing their own batshit shenanigans. Stan alone with the CIA and other individuals/assets would be far more disruptive if Roger didn't keep their life more occupied and they were a "normal" and boring family/community.
I think the most upsetting thing about this is how true the song is. It's a song about a lonely man having a dream where he finally meets someone. They then realize they are dreaming but don't want to wake up knowing she won't be there. The ending line reminds the listener that the song is to be taken literally and that exploring it to try and find a happy ending or different meaning (as some songs do) is like trying to live in the dream. There is nothing there. There is no happy ending. Just a miserable man.
I think it’s not a literal dream but a waking dream like an illusion. His love with his woman has turned out to only be an illusion (she doesn’t really love him, maybe she’s cheated on him) but he’d rather keep pretending than be alone It’s a much more brutal song than you think Like if Dale Gribble found out about his wife cheating he could belt out this song afterwards. I think that’s the proper context
Also his likening himself to the blind implies it’s perhaps his first love, he was inexperienced and a sight for sore eyes to him was awful majestic. His fair weather lover is truly a monster. And he must contend with his illusion shattering
I actually don't think it's either a dream or illusion, but a real lover that is not fit for him, but he'd rather imagine her as the special one that is perfect than breaking up and being alone.
Incredible, really. This one didn't need ANY of the central characters to be funny or moving. Probably the most entertaining thing from Seth & Co to date. If only it had been an hour-long special. Or maybe a two-parter. Also, that song is amazing.
It's not a two-parter, but it is part of that arc where Roger tricks Jeff into going into space after Jeff discovers that Roger is an alien (which Stan was very careful about in the FOX episodes, because it meant that the CIA would capture Roger and the Smiths would be in trouble for harboring an alien).
i legit have had this song last 2 years or so on my phone due to a random find on spotify and only now do i find this scene stoned watching random carton musicals.....what a time to be alive
"There was never anything there in the first place" has to be the most devastating thing you can tell someone after showing him what an asshole he was to his lost love.

Moi j'aime ça quand les gens écrivent les paroles. Je suis québécoise alors j'ai presque rien compris de cette chanson. Ça m'aide à comprendre quand les paroles sont écrites :)
I love a lot of songs I find from cartoons; But none have ever and I mean ever impacted me like this song. Wax Fang has been one of my favorite bands since I was 17 or 18 when I found this on American dad. They’re so amazing I advise anyone who liked this song to listen to every one of their songs
1:48 I know they’re all meant to be the same species but I’m 100% positive that that’s Roger in the baseball cap. That’s literally his character design.
This is def a great episode and song. It really makes you feel that regret and emotion of thinking you've done your best but don't realize some of things you didn't notice but have hurt other people and want to do better
As much as you try I don't think you will ever find a single problem with this whole episode. Says a lot as was not staring any of the smiths. At the time Jeff was married to hayley but still a recurring character and not essential to the show. So when I heard about this episode I was dreading watching it. But I loved that I was left with egg on my face. As this episode for me is perfect in every possible way. I especially love all the designs on the aliens on the spaceship. Especially Rogers species love the little detail to everyone of them.
Such a good song with beautiful lyrics , the part "if you're searching for a point between lines than you probably missed it , there was never anything there in the first place " is just so powerful when in a song about a sight for sore eyes to the blind
His singing is, unexpectedly transcendent. Downside, I can’t make out all the words, so I’m not sure what he’s trying to say. I think the point is that people fall deeply in love, freed from the darkness of being alone, but when the delve deeper into the relationship, they find there was nothing there in the first place.
The song ironically, is about nothing! it’s all up to the listeners interpretation. “We are obsessed with finding meaning and the band holds up a mirror to the listener wherein we inject our own meaning. Even when they tell us it means nothing and there isn’t a point beyond being a reflective experience in and of itself, we still look for a bigger point. Any attempt to glean more is missing the point entirely.”
It's actually a very touching original song. Most songs from this show are silly novelty songs about a more concrete person, place, or thing. This is a poetic song about love.
I love the part after this where the female alien tries to come on to him, and she puts on the radio which happens to have this same song playing, and immediately shuts it off
I just noticed, in previous episodes Jeff is shown to have an INSANE love for his hat. But here he is so distraught that he doesn't care.
I mean he did just lose all hope of ever seeing his wife or using his dick again, in those other episodes he had both his dick and wife.
There’s even that episode where he has a breakdown over losing it lmao
Previous and future
He literally mentions the hat seconds later.

Kody Johnson Some people can’t understand some of the lyrics, and this helps me, I mean them, know what he was singing.
@@kodyjohnson6294 you are a mean doo-doo
I love a lot of songs I find from cartoons; But none have ever and I mean ever impacted me like this song. Wax Fang has been one of my favorite bands since I was 17 or 18 when I found this on American dad. They’re so amazing I advise anyone who liked this song to listen to every one of their songs
The anime Bleach has numerous amazing songs.
1:48 I know they’re all meant to be the same species but I’m 100% positive that that’s Roger in the baseball cap. That’s literally his character design.
Eehhhh , there at least one modified detail with the design
hes got a huge adams apple compared to roger
Obviously my most favorite episode of AMERICAN DAD!!
This is probably one of the best songs I've ever heard
Fully agree
I'm an old man and I agree. It makes me think about a lot of Elton John's works. That's a hard sound to imitate, and the artist nails it so hard!
I watched this on TV when it premiered and this was one of the biggest highlights of the entire show.
I hate how I wake up every morning with this song repeating in my brain, but I just can't help listening to it. Someone please help me!
This is def a great episode and song. It really makes you feel that regret and emotion of thinking you've done your best but don't realize some of things you didn't notice but have hurt other people and want to do better
Been humming this song all week now such an awesome song 😞🤭🖤
I love this song ️💙
Anybody else vibing out to that song ?
I was in awe at this animated musical theater. Seriously. Just WOW! Out of nowhere and so beautiful. Excellent production on both fronts.
0:47
Is this the start of the song
@@hank.81267 years ago is crazy
Damn this song slaps
I'm being one hundred percent truthful when I say I would totally listen to this song
It is a real song, the band is Wax Fang
I love how this show goes so hard with the music when it doesn't have to at all. much like bob's burgers.
As much as you try I don't think you will ever find a single problem with this whole episode. Says a lot as was not staring any of the smiths. At the time Jeff was married to hayley but still a recurring character and not essential to the show. So when I heard about this episode I was dreading watching it. But I loved that I was left with egg on my face. As this episode for me is perfect in every possible way. I especially love all the designs on the aliens on the spaceship. Especially Rogers species love the little detail to everyone of them.
Jeff is such a fantastic every man character. Hes nothing special, he's not good at much, but hes such a sweet guy, you gotta love him.
"Sorry this songs really popular here"
I only clicked because I thought I was looking at a World of Warcraft raid boss. I don't regret my mistake, that was an awesome song.
Is nobody talking about how much of a discord mod the summoner is?
The first time I heard this song I got chills and I still do
I think it's instrumental part
Being stoned watching this was a major "stuck" moment
What makes this episode awesome is that it still works when you’re not stoned.
Fun Fact: The voice of Emperor Zing, Michael McKean, is the new voice of Grandpa Lou Pickles in the new Rugrats.
Chuck McGill from Better Call Saul!
Pilot angel dust
@@rosethepinkhairedsaiyan769 No, that's Michael Kovach you're thinking of.
@@dillonwright13 oh thanks
I feel like it should had been a movie.
This song is awesome
Such a good song with beautiful lyrics , the part "if you're searching for a point between lines than you probably missed it , there was never anything there in the first place " is just so powerful when in a song about a sight for sore eyes to the blind
This episode hit me deep. . .
This song slaps
His singing is, unexpectedly transcendent. Downside, I can’t make out all the words, so I’m not sure what he’s trying to say. I think the point is that people fall deeply in love, freed from the darkness of being alone, but when the delve deeper into the relationship, they find there was nothing there in the first place.
The song ironically, is about nothing! it’s all up to the listeners interpretation. “We are obsessed with finding meaning and the band holds up a mirror to the listener wherein we inject our own meaning. Even when they tell us it means nothing and there isn’t a point beyond being a reflective experience in and of itself, we still look for a bigger point. Any attempt to glean more is missing the point entirely.”
@@itsrie4807 Huh, possible ironic twist, nice.
I love how he connects to audio and video cords
It's actually a very touching original song. Most songs from this show are silly novelty songs about a more concrete person, place, or thing. This is a poetic song about love.
They didn't write it
It is not an American Dad original
Such a top tier epi. American Dad is amazing
Such a good song I'm glad I discovered it on American Dad all them years ago ❤
Wax Fang and My Morning Jacket: Two bands I can thank American Dad for introducing me to.
This was like 6 years prior to Rick & Morty.
WAX FANG!!!!!!
This song snd episode are both just pure bangers. 🔥
Those DRUM fills are just straight 🔥FIRE!!!!
PURE ART
This song gets into my brain like those tentacles and will not let GO!!!!
I also just noticed that the Summoners exhaust puffs in time with the beat
Hands down one of the best American dad songs
Did anyone else notice the majestic uses an RCA composite connection to show jeffs memories?
Sounds like a freaking Pink Floyd in the movie The wall
Love it
It has a "rock opera" feel
Or Elton John
Meatloaf
This was a hell of a thing to wake up to RUclips autoplay while suffering the delirium of a fever.
I'm such a Wax Fang fan boy, thanks American Dad.
This gives me rick and morty vibes
I think this before Rick and Morty. Rick and Morty gives you American dad vibes.
American dad always has lesser known bangers. Wax fang is the shit
That ending line kills me after surviving an abusive relationship with a partner who I still find myself missing
I don't know what it is about this episode and song but this scene has always stuck with me since i first saw it years ago.
If you've treated someone like shit and then reflected and felt bad about it. This is how it feels
okay but like, this song slaps, but seeing jeff cry made me so sad it really distracted me from the actual episode.
Not seeing Jeff cry before this really hit me with the feels
Almost 10 years is crazy😢🎉
2021 and this still goes hard asf
I love the part after this where the female alien tries to come on to him, and she puts on the radio which happens to have this same song playing, and immediately shuts it off
This could easily be a movie.
Thank you....just thank you AD.
one of the most catchy songs in animation!
That burn at the end tho
