[Tolinar]

Your falsetto tenor is too loud. And your baritone needs to be louder. Fix it in post if you can; remember the middle of the sound should be loudest.

[AtheistUndergrad]

Who are these douchebags?

[AsnRandomness]

Give them their golden-topped canes and they're ready for Broadway.

[lovewolf1ov3]

@AsnRandomness what are you talking about silly they need bull penis canes not golden-topped canes.

[XxDragonChikxX]

@lovewolf1ov3 Now now, there's one way to solve this.

GOLDEN-TOPPED BULL PENIS CANES

[AsnRandomness]

@XxDragonChikxX I would say this has all the win...

...but my dirty mind is too afraid to.

[AsnRandomness]

@lovewolf1ov3 O_O

*Puts headphones on and puts volume at least high enough where it won't bleed ears, and sway and bob head back and forth while having a poker face*

[TheWhethervane]

This is a gorgeous rendition of the song. It's also the thing that made me finally cry, after that gigantic, heartbreaking update. I love it so much.

[S3n4torL3monsnout]

Make that bitch a member of the midnight crew.

Bitches love the midnight crew.

[Jackwhitefangirl]

Brillinat, lol!

MAKKEEE HEERRR A MEMBER OF THE MIDNIGHT CREW!

[swordser2]

I'm part of the Midnight Crew ;D

[VoiceofCthulhu]

I just love how much Homestuck has affected things. I really doubt this remix would exist at ALL if not for Hussie.

[IsaaCrafter]

I used to not listen to music like this, but then I read homestuck. I bet you thought this comment was goin got be an arrow to the knee joke. Nope, Chuck Testa.

[teeoff123456]

@IsaaCrafter new meme density record congratz, want some cake

[TheWarnerSister]

@IsaaCrafter I don't know whether to shake your hand or punch you in the face.

[LckeStudios]

I'm not a member of the Midnight Crew.

I'm a member of the Moment Night Group.

[LckeStudios]

The like bar!

IT IS VIRGIN!!!

[PiccoloKirkland]

My God, this is fantastic.

[keyong97]

I believe the term 'rappers' refers to rap as in a gentle punch/tap, which would mean that these rappers are in fact muggers, which would make much more sense.

[gmiller2018]

@keyong97 Oh, certainly.

It's much less hilarious, though. After all, it's ironic that such a fuss would be made about something that actually turned out to be incorrect, and even more ironic that this fuss is being made by people who know fully that it's actually incorrect. Add to this the sincere wish to make the art--solely for its sake--and not because of a mistake, or rather, that we "mean it," making it inseparable from the joke, and you've a joke that lies in the upper echelons of irony.

[UncleApothecary]

I'm a member of the midnight crew, I'm a night owl and a wise bird too. :{D

[capedluna]

Why do I feel like this would be played in Fallout 3,ugh someone kill me.

[mylightside]

@capedluna I think it might be a little early to fit with the tone of Fallout. Most of the music has a very identifyable 30s/40s style to it, whereas I think this is a bit more 1910ish? I may be wrong though.

[narutolover9055]

Is it bad I have the lyrics and whistle this when I'm driving?

[Breadbug240]

@narutolover9055

Do you work at night?

Start working at night.

[Tsubakiification]

spades your voice is beautiful

[Fomortiis0]

Make her a member of the Midnight Crew

[RachelThePixie]

When I think of the rappers part, I think of Slick.

Psssh, imagine poor Slick running from a bunch of rappers.

[TheShadowpie]

@RachelThePixie It's actually "robbers", though. I highly doubt rap existed 100 years ago when the original song was made, and moreso the word "rap" or "rappers".

[RachelThePixie]

@TheShadowpie Oh well XD

[lastsaneman19]

@TheShadowpie

'Rappers' is part of the official lyrics though, obviously it's not rappers in context we interpret it, but it's not 'Robbers'.

[RachelThePixie]

@lastsaneman19 So I got it right? YAY. xD

[TheShadowpie]

@lastsaneman19 ...I stand corrected.

[gmiller2018]

@RachelThePixie

Oh man, I can see that.

"Why you hatin' on my muthaf*ckin' miracles, bitch?"

"Just get the hell away from me!"

[RachelThePixie]

@gmiller2018 Somebody.

Somebody needs to draw this. XD

[NarutoOrganisation13]

Rise with the moon, go to bed with the sun~

[KitsuneWolf222]

Don't get me wrong, I love this. But right now I'm listening to it at night in my bedroom where it's nearly pitch black. It's actually pretty terrifying for some reason. D:

I keep expecting to hear faint honks in the background or something.

Maybe I'm just a fraidy cat. XD

[karatekid778]

@KitsuneWolf222 No, no. I get you.

The singing kind of creeps me out.

Just the way it sounds...

Like... Ominous, almost.

[Nerdslab]

Pure awsomeness

[zoster24]

WA WAAAAAAA WA WA WA WA WA WAAAAAAAAAA

[TheRealGamzeeMakara]

Totally love it. Great job!

[BouquetofBlackRoses]

Quite a voice you got there, Spades.

[VodkaMutini]

Come along wife, it's time to get drunk and hit on loose broads.

The Midnight Crew, perfect gentlemen.

[nomukun1138]

I burst out laughing when he recounted his adventure with the "rappers".

[anonomous1324]

@nomukun1138

Same here X)

[MystiqueLavender]

I'd love to perform this in an acapella group! It's a fantastic rendition of the song and harmonised so well!

[SixOutOfAHundred]

Spades is the one with the highest voice.

[woowoo678]

@SixOutOfAHundred Nah, Diamonds is the one with the high voice.

[forte8910]

@woowoo678 It's gotta be Hearts

[RachelThePixie]

@woowoo678 I wanna say Clubs with the high voice, then Spades, Diamonds and Hearts. xD

[webkinzfreak24]

The singing sounds like The Ink Spots.

[howlrunner97]

Lyrics?

[JesseUscot]

At first I thought: "I am going to hate this..." I stand corrected.

[BagelBagelB1]

WHY DO I LOVE IT SO MUCH

[kaploy9]

3/4ths of the way to what I'd consider my dream version of the song. Now, if only:

-More cannonized voices. (pitch difference, mah boi)

-Get some instruments back there!

-WITH MORE FEELING. (even though this already contains so much)

Then I'd say it'd be the ultimate-until-proven-otherwis­e version.

[stopeatingthepizza]

@kaploy9 If it had instruments, it wouldn't be acapella.

[SDRDarkraikou]

@kaploy9 1) Considering there aren't any canon voices and these probably are, that shouldn't really be a problem. And note the fact that there are pitch differences, if you listen to it closely.

2) To start with, an acapella is singing without music or such. And the song could possibly be ruined if so. Remember, the original is over 100 years old.

3) There's no need for more feeling when it's reached maximum capacity. :]

This is the ultimate-proven version. :]

[kaploy9]

@SDRDarkraikou Alright:

1) My main bother on that point was that they all sounded too similar. (all sung by the same guy, right) True, there aren't any "canon" voices, but it's just in my personal opinion that I'd prefer something that I can recognize as individuals.

2) Not to be rude, but when did I mention keeping it an acapella? I'm just in the mood for four guys singing to some classy music. (was the original even an accepella?)

3) I just felt that a third point was needed. *shrug*

[SDRDarkraikou]

@kaploy9 Yeah, I kinda agree xD; I did, too, think the voices were quite simillar... eh, guess that's all there really is to say on the matter, I think

[Pyrotechnically]

<3

Just... <3

That's the only way to express how great this is.

<33333333

[Eagle0600]

It was a good decision to put this right after Cascade in the album. Good tension reliever.

[Mettie7]

I'm trying to memorize this song, it's so much fun :3

[FlyingDinocar]

This is my JAM.

[Rebelottie]

Best song on the album! Would anyone happen to have the sheet music?

[CannibalisticOreos]

I was a bit iffy to this song when I first heard it but it's grown on me!

[AceForever4265]

I'm addicted to this song <3

[StudioGimmick]

WOOT! HOMESTUCK!! 8D

[healingv1sion]

Haha im a member of the midnight crew! Fuck yeah night shift...i also listen to 3 in the morning at 3 in the morning...

[victrolaman]

This is a truly wonderful and first class 21st rendition of Eddie Morton's early 20th Century Classic . Its' splendid and professionally done Harmony links the past with the present, and I am sure the beloved and once immensely popular Mr. Eddie Morton, is looking down and smiling. Well Done !

Victrolaman

[KagariAsuha]

@victrolaman So glad you checked this out! And thank you, again, for sharing such a high quality version of the original with us!

[ninjamario412]

@victrolaman

Victrolaman, You're such a bro.

[Delathblue]

@victrolaman Does that mean you're nominating this song for the BoT?

[Snake3112]

WHO ARE THESE DOUCHEBAGS?

[TheClownCentral]

@Snake3112 lol i laughed out loud

[MightyMoose64]

Spades Slick secretly has a beautiful tenor voice, but he sings lead so the rest of the crew "don't think he's no less of a manly man, y'see?"

[XxNearlyLovedxX]

@MightyMoose64 I bet Snowman would love to hear this

[HeadeatingCat]

this is my favourite thing

[DemyxFanOfOwls]

Only problem I saw with this was how quiet it was. Then I realized my headphones were plugged in.

This is just amazing.

[Trogdorbad]

THIS IS INCREDIBLY CLASSY

[Zeikier]

Hearts Boxcars is the Tenor.

[SDRDarkraikou]

Why is my mind telling me that if the voices are canon, that the highest voice of them is DD? D:

[ThePwnut]

@SDRDarkraikou And the lowest is CD?

[SDRDarkraikou]

@ThePwnut YES.

Actually, my real headcanon is that their singing voices from highest to lowest are; DD, CD, SS, then HB, but with regular speaking it's CD, SS, DD, then HB.

i actually think about these things daily

oh fuck

(also shoot me for a late reply x-x)

[MrDerpbag]

LOL

[DvScruff]

*sigh*

*claps*

DON'T QUIT YOUR DAY JOBS

[ElecManX]

@DvScruff Members of the midnight crew only have night jobs.

[Stormstopper]

[wizqueefah]

[Tinman151]

[KyoufuKawa]

This is so stupid it loops right back and becomes hilarious.

[gentlemanvaultboy]

@KyoufuKawa I think you mean so great it loops back into classy.

[KyoufuKawa]

@gentlemanvaultboy Yeah sure, that works too. Still, only the second recording I know of.
