Top Comments of this video!! :3
9:40 it's a reference to a pavement song that starts with "pigs, they wiggle when they walk" which in turn is about cops. He's introing the exact same way and maybe pointing out a cop depending how you take the rest of his verse. You can definitely hear the pavement influences on this track in it's own weird way so its a really cool, on the nose touch.

You should definitely listen to Fishmonger and Boneyard in full too, whether for videos or just for your own personal enjoyment. I enjoy both of those previous works a bit more than this new one due to the shorter song structures and more replayability, but I do think she matured as an artist really well on this one!

hearing your interpretation of the lyrics was so so cool to me beacause I realized how the lyrics make perfect sense within the wallsocket arg with all the characters, but also have these insane hard hitting themes, all these interpretations, all of them valid and a valuable analysis of what April created (the pony up mother and father thing was so insane to me also that is just sick)

I swear watching your reaction to this is like holding a MIRROR to my GODDAMN SOUL, man! This album, along with "hypochondriac" by Brakence (thanks for the hearted comment on that vid, again), are just such a VIBE on the first couple listens, and, y'know, they stay vibin, but they get EMOTIONAL.
it's like an onion. it has LAYERS.
Your reaction to Johnny Johnny Johnny is like, the physical MANIFESTATION of how I mentally coped with the dissonance between the very, very f*cked up story of the song, and the absolute BOP of everything else about it, and Uncanny long arms... to put it lightly: got me f*cking sobbing.
The ending of that song was clipped from Inlaws, a demo track that eventually became Kinko's field trip 2006, my favorite song from the Fishmonger album. It's a song about insincerity, the pain that stems from that, the desire to just be yourself around other people... y'know, being trans and not being out yet.
With that ending being paired with the rest of the song, which, while definitely being entrenched in the Wallsocket ARG lore (there's lore man, like I said, this sh*t has LAYERS), is so strongly about dysphoria and the feeling of not being right in your own body, is just...
I've been struggling with my own gender stuff for a while now, so, to say the least, it hits different*, and by different I mean like a *TRUCK to the HEART (or perhaps a _shot to the chest_)
(okay so this actually took me three entire hours to write, since I went back to double check absolutely everything I wrote, and went back and listened to the songs too [and watch like two video essays because I've got ADHD and can't focus on one thing at a time] so....)
Thanks for this, HT.
