49:31 GodDAMMIT Neil... The original lyric "because *my dreams* are bursting at the seams" has oh-so-subtly been changed to "because *Mouth Dreams* are bursting at the seams"... I've listened to this so many times, but I only just caught that now. Neil is such a sneaky marvellous bastard genius.
If anyone wants to know the bizarre history of how Neil evolved throughout the years with his music and relationship with the internet, look up "Neil Cicierega, Internet Person - XOXO Festival (2016)". It's Neil himself telling his story for 20 minutes on stage to a festival audience. He had a *fascinating* early introduction to the internet as a kid, plus it's neat to see and hear this actual person speak live.
It's actually wild how close the early internet was. Like the guy who animated the music video fire Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny now cohoasts a utopian socialist podcast called Srsly Wrong.
These guys have either never heard Psycho Killer and are laughing because they think that Neil made those noises sound like that, or they have heard Psycho Killer and are laughing at David Byrne being David Byrne. I can't decide which I like better
it's fun seeing people have the same reactions at the same time as I have. I don't know how you kept a straight face through the drop of 10 000 spoons, I just straight up lost it at this point
I love that you guys listen to Neil Cicierega on road trips. I aspire to have friends who will let me play the Mouth albums for them at all let alone on a road trip.
The release of mouth dreams was synched dangerously well with me listening to the Spirit Phone album with increased frequency, so I had just assumed it was an older album I'd forgotten the title of until the thumbnail to this reaction video tempted me to click. I was like "hmm, maybe I'll just watch their reactions to some familiar songs, then click off" ... "wait, I don't know any of these songs....WHY ARE ALL THE VIDEOS ON MOUTH DREAMS ONLY 2 WEEKS OLD?"
In my opinion, this album is more for the funny, but there's still some really good songs, like Ribs, Closerflies and Whitehouse. IMO this album is still better than Silence, mainly because there's only 1 song on the album I love (Piss) and there's only 4 songs I like (Goodbye, Space Monkey Mafia, Best, It's), while all the others are eh (and then there's Orgonon Gurlz...)
Oddly enough this video is one of my favorite ways to listen to Mouth Dreams, feels like I maintain a bit more sanity if I've got other people reacting to these songs while I listen to them for the 40th time
nice!!! I thought there was a little more going on. love that track. On wikipedia, as well as many youtube videos, there are pretty exhaustive and accurate listings of the samples used on each track but I have to see that sample credited for that track so thanks for pointing it out here.
Uh.... I do not think Stacy can't go to the pool, watching over in Mouth Dreams. But now, Neil doesn't matter that he says that he carries the song in this track.
@@nofivefivesevenseven I didn't state it clearly but there are two distinct full length versions of the song in addition to the short album track. I'm away from my PC so I don't know if both long versions are named Nightmoving.
It is no coincidence that Marilyn Manson comes into the song about ribs saying that he doesn’t want or need them... And the next song is about a mouth.

Watching people experience the mental whiplash that comes from hearing "Spongerock" for the firs time is the closest one can get to reliving that Lovecraftian sense of giggling madness...
These guys' reactions are so wholesome. And I've heard this album over and over before, so knowing what's about to happen next makes their stunned/hysterical reactions even better!
The last two songs are a direct response to Smash Mouth breaking through. Using Brittany to talk about how he misses using Smash Mouth, but using it makes the music sound a bit too crazy and obsessive. Then follows up with Weezer to express how he's about to fall into that again, but trying not to.
8:13 I have a good mental laugh for Justin Bieber's doh timeline, but seriously if Johnny Cash get his lyrics of sentences mixed in his song, the track always kills me every dang time.
The irony of watching their faces become incredibly bored and unhappy while someone sings “come on get happy” over and over. Neil is a genius.
Neil is deranged and that is an utter compliment. He truly thinks on an elevated level
"Get Happy" is a nice track and quite funny but now every time I have a dissociative episode it loops in my head
isn't it ironic?

There's nothing quite like the feeling of recognizing a song and immediately saying "Oh, no." with equal parts horror and joy.
1:02:51 *OH YEAH* "oh no"
I saw that at the start of Johnny cash baby….his face like “what is he going to do to my boy?”
That's why teaser was Greenday: the album is about dreaming and released at the end of September
Yes!!! I wanted to talk about that, but we were too excited to listen to the album
Mashed up with Dream On.

"He makes better music than most PEOPLE" I love the emphasis on people and the implications that holds
Repeating the line “say something once, why say it again” is the 3-dimensional chess of comedy.
and then AGAIN
And also right before that, "You start a conversation and you can't even finish it..." then silence where the next line should be

The disbelief on your faces when "Johnny" started playing

My favorite part is trying to take a dignified sip of a snifter of whisky while Johnny Cash sings about just being a baby, drinking coffee.
that he made Johnny Cash sing "I ShIt /my/ Pants" was practically heretical.
I just realized the excellent Marilyn Manson joke that Neil made with the tracklist. "Get Happy" and then "Ribs" and then "My Mouth"! Comedic Genius!

As someone who doesn't listen to Manson, could you explain?
U gotta search it up

I love watching reactions to Neil's songs and work because I always enjoy people enjoying themselves or being in total confusion.
Im glad yall had the same reaction to the blasphemous afront that is "Limp Wicket"
You mean 'I did it all for the Wookie'?
love how in Nightmovin' it was a "NO" followed immediately by a "YES" followed immediately by a "NOOO"

Damn. Good ear, dude
Closerflies at the end

That's how frigging devious and brilliant Neil is. So many layers and secrets and references.
Very enjoyable thanks for actual reacting to the whole album

Johnny into Closerflies are just 2 10/10s back to back.
actually Johnny is about the time where the album just turns on and never stops.

Have you two thought about reacting to more albums or other things? I like the dynamic you two have
10,000 spoons is my favourite

The Yahoo song literally sounds like a Sigur Ros song
WOOOOOOOOOO YEAH BABY THATS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITIN FOR

"Cannibals", aka the time "Alanis" from Sounds looked at "T.I.M.E." from Moods and said "imma try some of that"
