@JaceDraccus Otherwise, you just end up with "I'm walking. I'm singing in your face. Closeup of me." or just lyrics that sound exactly like the song :)
@KatherineXIX Exactly! IMHO, the point of a literal video isn't just to describe EVERY SINGLE MOVEMENT in the video, it's to make fun of the wierd stuff in the video.
This is one of the best ones, but to be fair, the video gave you the most to work with :P. Literal versions seem to work the best with videos that have nothing to do with the song and/or a lot going on. Loved "Baby Grampa Santa Christ"!
The idea to write Heart Shaped Box came from the character Blanche in Tennessee William's play A Street Car Named Desire. Blanche had a heart shaped box with a seahorse pin. This is why Kurt Cobain drew a seahorse in his journal.
OK it took a minute to realize but hey--wait... how in the FUCK did you get his voice to actually "sing" the fake lyrics? I am baffled. This isn't just funny or just genius because of the lyrics--it's actually a very brilliant piece of work.
Near the end, when the lyrics r " fall on face" & Kurt fell really slowly & then hit the ground when the chair flung back it was hilarious cuz no1 did anything! they just sat there. He fell so casually.
@anko8aug There's always Dave and Krist (and Courtney), should they ever stumble upon it. Should I be excited about that possibility, or concerned? ;)
@anko8aug I think if he could've seen this before he passed things might have been different... it might have given him the laugh that saved his life...
When you die, you are no longer living. When you commit suicide, you are no longer living. So, yes he did die. The specific cause of death was just left unsaid.
@SecretCherryKiss Neither, LOL. Literal music videos began with DustoMcNeato in October 2008. My first literal video was February 2009. The first Tobuscus literal trailer was December 2009. Enjoy 'em all! :)
"worst Christmas card idea yet"...That's worthy of Monty Python...in fact this whole video is. I had to re-watch it a few times because I was laughing at something and had to back up...then I laughed again at the next line and had to back up etc. etc....just brilliant!
