I agree! It's my favorite from the BF! I guess the thing is people prioritize different things. In other replies people said it was a little long and misplaced + it's a ballad. For me this song IS the climax, because for me this musical is for the most part about Tom dealing with his guilt and fixing his relationship towards Tim. And everything that goes after is less interesting for me. Plus i always loved ballads, they seemed more emotional for me. So this song seemed perfect - emotional climax of a personal story. But i guess if people like the Wiggly storyline better, this song would be annoying. For me this song is number 1.

I originally thought it would be like a Jesus reference, especially since he said Christmas would be his birthday, and the doll would be like the holy spirit, so when she got ahold of it, she would become pregnant with a humanoid version of wiggly. But after listening to Wiggle so many times, it references the building of a portal. So, I think Wiggly needs to be in Linda's hands to tell her how to construct the portal, so that he can come through into their reality.

Lex in Black Friday actually kills me, especially in the second verse. The pure, barely contained rage in "Is there some lesson to learn? Should I never have wanted? I never even GOT STARTED! Or were the decks always just this stacked." The non-question that is the last line there; she knows they were and she's ALWAYS known that in some sense but she still let herself hope. She hid it behind this IDGAF attitude but deep down she *hoped* and *wanted* and now she's faced with the fact that it was all for naught. Even though she's prepared herself for failiure her whole live it still hurts because she let herself hope for it.

I mean, Kendall was playing Hannah for the last scene, so Tim couldn't be there - but I'm sure if they weren't the same actor, that Tim would've been there.

I'm gonna preface this with the fact that I already put this in another rankings comments so if you already read it, I'm sorry. Now before we get into my whole mini essay with WITC I'm thinking about what you just said and I agree entirely but I am also weak and I hope my babies are okay. This leads into the fact, I live In an area right by an airport and the largest navy base in the world. The plane doesnt sound like anything besides one would hear at an airshow. Starkid might not know that though so I'm not gonna judge. President Goodman does already know what's happening so it could be argued that those planes could be bring feds and relief in the wake of this disaster. Now on to the fun part. There is something about What If Tomorrow that sticks with me. Every single time without fail when I listen to it I get chills. There certain parts that really stand out to me in it. The adding of the drums when Kendall sings adds such a weight to the music. The fact that Hannah doesnt sing throughout the show and also clearly doesn't like talking just makes this moment that much more impactful. When someone who never talks has something to say, you listen. Then the camera work. My favorite type of shot is the unbroken follow shot and the way it's used in this is perfect. The way the harmonies are layer back in forth in a not necessarily messy but rather organic matter works so well. It's like everyone is having their own thought and each and everyone is processing what is happening. In this show and TGWDLM, the way voices get layered back and forth while not forced is very clean and obviously arranged. It works because they arent thinking for themselves. In this song it's nothing but free thought and fear. Now on to quite possibly my favorite part. The counting. When you count down, you typically say all the numbers. If not, one usually does it by evens. Who counts down by odds. No one. It makes it just that much more tense and unnerving because it pushes forward this feeling that something is wrong. Now my favorite part. Kendall's last line. Her acting is amazing in this song but it stands out none more than this line. You can see the contempt and almost anger in her eyes as she sees what is about to happen. Her voice is nothing but pure emotion and it hits so heavy. Her final part is by far the most intense part of the show.

I forced my parents to watch Black Friday when it came out. I told them it was advertised as a Horror Comedy, but that I thought it was a lot darker and hit the feels more than most horror comedies do. They didn't believe me because the only other one they've watched parts of are hmb and avpm. My mum was crying at multiple points and my dad said that the song Black Friday hit home for him as it reminded him of his childhood. I agree wholeheartedly with all of your comments on black friday, I literally crying every time

What Tim Wants made me cry ngl. I see so much of myself in Tim's situation. Shit's hitting the fan and his dad seems so far away. It feels like a reflection of me in a way. My dad was a marine, he has PTSD and worked a lot even when he left to move into a house with me and my mom when I was 9. I was struggling with school, my parents were quick to decide on a divorce, I was stressed, and the neighborhood I lived in was always really quiet so I had no way to go out and have fun like I did before I moved. The relationship with both of my parents was straining. Things got complicated, it was a mess, and seeing how much Tom and Tim remind me of me and my dad hurts like hell. I love this song though, so I lowkey might be a masochist lmao.

People also say that Tom and Becky's relationship was unnecessary and an afterthought but I disagree. This song just shows that adults go through a lot of shit too but don't always get their happiness back because they are afraid. Becky and Tom were both afraid and they could be afraid together.

Like, everyone definitely has their own opinion but I can’t say I understand or share that one… When you hear Nick Lang talking about Tom and Becky it’s obvious he absolutely adores the relationship he’s crafted and I simply am so compelled by their story. Two traumatized individuals bonding over their experiences, that’s not an afterthought whatsoever it’s just the way this story was built…
