I love how the strip is too short to make a music video out of so they keep cutting back to the same thing over and over. I lose my shit whenever "I'M USING THE CAT BRUSH" starts getting mixed into the song.
He made every single fucking video on this channel before January the 14th of 2008 and uploaded them all on the same day. What a God. These are all difficult edits to do, especially more so back then.
and now they did it again, some of the videos they just uploaded seem to be 6 or 7 years old, all being stockpiled up over all these years, and all with production value that blows these older videos away. these people are fucking legends
Sometimes the underlying dark themes of Davis' comic strip Garfield are underplayed when the strip is presented in popular media, lasangacat makes no such mistake in their recreation of the famous 4/08/98 strip. The angst and pain of Jon using a cat brush instead of a hair brush is brilliantly captured by lasagnacat's usage of the popular emo anthem "Head Like a Hole" by Ohio recording artists Nine Inch Nails.
The themes and symbology here are very layered and complex. Central to them of course, is the cat brush itself- a tortiseshell color (which is also a breed of cat as well, further deepening the analogy) and one traditionally associated with wealth and privilege from previous eras, but now reduced to a mere tool of the bourgeoisie fit only for animals. The video flashes between shots of Jon, in existential agony and his eyes completely obscured, implying a state of soullessness or disconnection from God. Superimposed are shots of the cat brush suspended in the air- suspended, one could say, with unknowing or an inability to accept its circumstances, much like Jon himself. Jon's terror is not of contamination by the brush itself, but of a far greater fear- that there is no distinction between he, a man, and Garfield, a mere beast, or indeed between a beast and a simple object. The harsh notes of the soundtrack emphasize Jon's rejection of the concept of the Almighty in the face of such a contradiction- for if a man is nothing more than an animate cat brush, what need is there for God?
A five-star rating for seeing "GARFIELD" scrawled in red on someone's chest alone. Also, for a second you'd swear this actually was an industrial rock video.
Watching this, I have to wonder how Lasagnacat came up with the idea for this sketch in the first place. I don't see how you make the jump from a mundane comic about a hairbrush to a hilariously over-the-top and moody music video featuring a Nine Inch Nails song. Like, this is probably my favorite video on the channel, but I just have trouble imagining the sort of thought process that would lead to this conclusion. How do you come up with the visual of Jon Arbuckle with no shirt on and "GARFIELD" smeared on his bare chest in blood? It's so specific and bizarre that I'm not sure we'll ever fully understand what the creator's motive was. Lasagnacat videos are perfect in its ambiguity.
The visuals are mostly references to the music video for 'Closer' by NIN, where Trent Reznor is topless in parts. I think the bloody chest and crows are just for extra "gothness" I suppose. Or maybe references to other NIN music videos. Been a while since I've watched any
@@DZrache I get that it's a send-up to NIN, I'm more just trying to imagine how someone came up with an idea like this in the first place while looking at the original comic strip. I guess they just studied it for several hours and abruptly thought "I should make a parody of the video for Closer based off this."
Damn it. Now I've watched all of them on youTube. It's going to be really hard/impossible to find anything that's anywhere near as consistently awesome as these videos.
I've seen almost all of the Lasagnacat videos and this is by far my favorite due to Goth Garfield staring at the camera and the NIN video-like editing.
between this, garfield - garfield, and realfield there's been many amazing things done in the medium of garfield. gazorpazorpfield may take the cake, though.
For some reason when I watch this video my side bar recommendations fill up with stuff about David Lynch, like "David Lynch smoking and listening to rain while reflecting on art for an hour" or "David Lynch being a madman for 8 minutes straight" yet I haven't ever, to my recollection, watched a video about David Lynch on this platform, and I don't think I've even looked up anything related to a film he made on here in a long time. It's just odd.
this video kinda makes me reflect on my life and how society has raised me ya' know?...are we all as vulnerable as jon? why do we as human beings make mistakes like this that so drastically move us....and yet not know that someone, somewhere is using our toothbrush without our own knowledge of it...wow...thank you jim davis...you've opened my eyes and the eyes of all the generations to come
These Garfield videos along with Chad Vader are among the best reasons for youtube to exist, to showcase people like you who possess such awesome talent! Great work!

You think its reached its peak and then the crows happen.

I'm ashamed to admit it, but this video got me into NIN

The Jon actor's acting at the end where he's shirtless is one of the funniest things in this entire series, I can't help but crack up every time.

As a Nine Inch Nails fan, I find this deeply hilarious.
Please tell me someone has shown this to Trent Reznor
I raised an eyebrow at this not expecting Nine Inch Nails to play before "Head Like a Hole" showed up unexpectedly
Not No One ikr

I didn't know what to expect after the cat brush part... of course I never read the video description before hand

well then that just makes this latest bout even more impressive

Please come back lasagnacat, we miss you and your videos of comedic genius!
+lakamokolaka i agree
He died
Its time
+Cuddly He's ressurected
lakamokolaka You FUCKER. Have you seen what you've DONE?!
I ordered the cat brush with my haunted hamburger.
I saw this for the first time in 2016 and it was the first time I'd heard NIN. Never looked back since.
im so blessed to have watched this video
Me too actually
this was my introduction to nine inch nails
Not a week has gone by in the last decade without me thinking of Jon screaming into the screen and "I'M USING THE CAT BRUSH"
My grandkids still enjoyed this video. They like to watch of animals.
i'm hoping one day that maybe, just maybe...these guys will return.
Professor Pancakes *YOUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED*
So, how thrilled were you?
You’re in luck!
honestly out of all those comic strips they mocked this is probably the "funniest" one
i miss him so much
bring this back
He's back
in pog form
Jim Davis' picture will be forever etched into the dark recesses of my mind.
I never thought I needed to see emo Jon Arbuckle
I feel like that was the closest to being a joke so far... I can't tell if it's because I'm adapting mentally to it or not.
Probably my favorite video on this channel
End of an era.
OR SO YOU THOUGHT!
now just the end of the first season
*end of the first season
end of the first season&
I love how this is credited on Trent's IMDB
A five-star rating for seeing "GARFIELD" scrawled in red on someone's chest alone.
Also, for a second you'd swear this actually was an industrial rock video.
Not even going to front, this is how I found out about NIN
This is still the best video on RUclips. I'm laughing so much I'm crying. Please make more of these for god's sake.
agreed, this is so underrated
your wish has come true
Goth Jon Arbuckle is my aesthetic.
How did this not get more views and also the Nobel Peace Prize.
this channel was so ahead of its time, also gotta love nine inch nails
Still my favorite lasagna cat.
God bless these videos.

Ever smoked Marijuana
I wonder what Jim thinks of all these vids lol
THE CAT BRUSH
Gothfield!
I love the Jim Davis goth at the end
I just saw NIN love at Riot Fest and if you can believe it, "Head Like a Hole" immediately made me think of this
he's using the cat brush
Whos watching in 1998
Every time I hear the song I think of this video and die laughing
This is genuinely amazing, congrats.
This is one of those rare videos that make me laugh every time I see them.
Every time I look back at this channel I always find a new video I haven't seen before
I want this played at my funeral and wedding.
He is using the catbrush
Damn it. Now I've watched all of them on youTube. It's going to be really hard/impossible to find anything that's anywhere near as consistently awesome as these videos.
You reminded me that NIN are awesome. Time to open a new tab and multitask.

Don't forget Garfielf
This is the greatest thing I have ever seen in my entire life!. :D
Now I feel only sorrow I will never experience joy like this ever again :C
I often wonder if Trent Reznor has ever seen this
Just heard about everything and binging on all this sweet sweet content lol
How’d you know I needed this
i want this man to come back wiht a stunning video

It's just odd.
Lynch was inspired by LasagnaCat to become a filmmaker. His films explore many of the themes first explored in fiction by the Flabby Tabby.
How has this one not broken 1mil views?
I think this is easily the best one so far (though there have been a few before it that are pretty damn good as well).
These are fantastic.
this is my favorit, thank u

I like how on the comics that are kind of funny, FF adds a full laugh track, and on the ones that feel stale, there is a coughing sound effect.

I still remembered this from 6 yearlies I think.
