🌞 Brace yourselves for a no-nonsense, Midwest Emo-Punk take on the legendary Arthur Theme Song! 🎸🎤
🌾 If you're not familiar with Midwest Emo, it's a genre that burst onto the scene in the American heartland during the late '90s and early 2000s. Expect heartfelt lyrics, gritty guitar riffs, and unapologetic vocals - that's the essence of Midwest Emo, and we're cranking it up a notch.
📺 Arthur, that cherished animated series from our childhoods, has never sounded quite like this before. I'm paying my respects by giving it a punk rock twist that'll hit you like a wave of nostalgia. 🐰📚
🎶 Grab a cold one, soak up the sun, and join me in celebrating the magic of Arthur with a Midwest Emo-Punk makeover that's destined to be your summer jam.
👊 If you dig this, don't forget to like, share, and subscribe to my channel. Comment below and tell me which classic you'd like to see me punkify next!

But seeing your passion and dedication to making this an honest to god send-up like this, seeing you having so fun making something that tugs so hard at the heartstrings of anyone who grew up watching Arthur, it really brings a triumphant, hopeful, inspiring aspect to a great rendition that might not have carried the same sweetness and optimism if we weren't seeing you having the time of your life creating it. Thanks so much for this. I mentioned in a different comment that i only really listen to gangsta rap and hardcore (as in hxc punk/powerviolencence/speedcore/sludge/grind; not that awful cookiecutter rave crap they call hardcore nowadays), but I'm waiting on baited breath to see what you come up with next.

Midwest Emo sounds like how it feels when you walk home from school on a gray autumn day, leaves lining the sidewalks, you feel a drop of rain or two as you cross the threshold into your home. The living room is carpeted, with wooden paneling, and warm yellow lamps replacing the typical ceiling fixtures. This living room is straight from the 60s, just like your parents, who will come home soon and destroy the solitude, instigating some kind of familial discourse instead. That wasn't even my own memory I just described my friend's childhood home lmfao

@MaddoBatto 3 ай бұрын

You sure you didn't describe mine? There was so much discourse, we weren't even allowed to enter the house through said wood paneling living room from the 60s (or in my case, the rest of the house was like that, and the living room was a remodeled garage). Instead, everyone except my dad had to enter through the back door, into this weird tiny connecting room between the kitchen and dining rooms (the dining room which became used like a second living room, because the actual living room was being used as my dad's bedroom after he got permanently kicked out of sharing a bed with my mom) Just a big ol spaghetti of "maybe I don't want to come home from school today - sure I'll stay late to help pick up after band practice, and maybe then we can hang out at your place?"

This fills me with melancholy. It’s like the song that plays on the last day of your childhood, and that replays sporadically in your adulthood to remind and haunt you of what you lost, and how comparatively simple and joyful those days used to be. As children, we’re in a desperate rush to grow up. And as adults, we’re in a desperate, quiet sorrow to go back again.

The specific episode you opened with hit me hard, as I was the annoying little sister to my older brother, and there were a couple of times he got physical - never in a truly bad way, but enough that I identified completely with D.W. there. This clip triggered a memory for me I wasn't ready for, a bit bittersweet remembering the real life struggle, but the comfort of finding a mirror of my experience on TV that helped me to understand everything and be more sympathetic for my brother (and be a little less obnoxious lol). ALSO, since the whole point of the video is a Midwest Emo (lol) version of the theme song and not a trauma dump, I absolutely love this song. I know it might be just a loop, but if you can make it a bit longer, even just repeating some verses and more instrumental, I would love love love that too! 2 minutes isn't enough!

Strangely enough, it gave me the exact same nostalgic feel for an entirely different genre. These progressions sounded way too familiar to me, and I've never listened to Midwest Emo. Specifically the artist Home. Then it hit me, the only reason I even learned about Home was because of emo Simpsonwave videos with their more crushing tracks like Decay from the Odyssey album. Nothing more Midwest emo than living in Springfield, I suppose.

REAL TRAP SHIT

Born and raised in the Midwest, with two younger sisters, in a not so rich area of town. For some reason this song took me back, made my eyes a little teary, and before I realized it my lighter was up in the air.

This song makes me think: Arthur grew up a successful member of society, but he deeply regrets his choices in his youth. Hes happy now, but nostalgic.

@pawouapproval984 8 ай бұрын

God DAMN this brought me nostalgia of watching Arthur on PBS while my dad was at work. He had a little battery powered TV he would bring with him on jobs if I had to go with him because we couldn't afford a babysitter. Great times

This song somehow perfectly embodies the emotions of finally completing a game that you love. You’re overjoyed that you’ve completed it, but sad that it’s over, the journey was great but the fun is over, now you’re left with a sense of both peace and a calm emptiness

I've been listening to this song a lot recently, and I finally figured out why. I've never watched this show, probably never listened to the theme in full, but the way this sounds makes me nostalgic for it regardless. The pure vibe of the song is intoxicating in the best possible way. It's great and I like it.
