Every video on this channel is my honest opinion. My first listen to Rob Halford of Judas Priest, I said "I don't know if I like his voice, but I respect it." I am a very honest person, and that's what you'll always get here.

I love you, Elizabeth. Thank you for reacting to my absolute favourite cartoon ever. 1. There's a song called "Blame Canada" that was supposed to win the 2000 Oscars but it lost to Phil Collins. Now imagine what they did to Phil Collins in one of their later episodes. 2. Isaac Hayes' Chocolate salty balls song actually reached #1 on the UK charts, you should DEFINITELY react to it. I could go on forever regarding the South Park Iceberg, but I don't want to spoil it all in case you react to more songs.

It was isaac hayes. Mind, the story there was awful. He sent the creators of south park a terrible letter. Denouncing everything about south park as evil. It turned out he'd had a stroke and was in a very bad way. The church of scientology actually sent the letter to matt and trey. Turns out he really loved his time on south park. Sadly he'd passed away before he had the chance to tell matt and trey. Heartbreaking stuff

@johnjohn37371 2 жыл бұрын

To expand a bit, it was specifically the Tom Cruise scientology episode that had supposedly upset Hayes and he did have unflattering things to say at the time about the show. ( now whether that actually came from him or not, or if it was a press release or a letter from the church, I don't know. I do know that the statements were absolutely attributed to him at the time ) Enough anger was generated to prompt Stone and Parker to create the "Chef's a raging pedophile" episode, using snippets of Hayes' voiceovers to haphazardly piece together Chef's dialogue for the episode. I am glad you included the bit about Hayes not knowing and actually enjoying his time there as I never knew if that was actually factual...I had seen that somewhere, but didn't know if it was true. If nothing else, leaves me with a much better feeling about the legendary Isaac Hayes...so thanks for that.

The South Park Movie is one of the greatest musicals of my generation. Was even nominated for Musical of the Year. The movie is so outrageous and funny that most people don't realize they are watching a musical. Throughout the whole movie, the story is told and developed by musical numbers, from beginning to end. Worthy of a reaction from a professional like you.

I'd absolutely agree. It's crass and crude, but it's commentary is still as relevant in 2022 as it was in 1999. And the musical numbers are absolutely top-notch. Trey and Matt said they were trying to spoof a Disney musical, and they damn well pulled it off.

"Kyle's Mom" is one of my favorites of these orchestral renditions simply because of how ridiculous it is. Here we have a full orchestra, with performers dressed to the nines and singing in a more classical style - all things that we associate with the fancy and sophisticated - and here they are using all that just to insult someone's mom. Perfection. You summed it up pretty well with the shock value. My other favorite is Chocolate Salty Balls. You can just tell how much fun the vocalists were having with that one. It deserves a full cover.
