I’m not sure if it’s me being heartbroken and bitter, but Dr. Horrible’s part in this song resonates with me

[@spaghetti5914]

You are not alone damn

[@Tony-xx5lr]

I hear you brothers...

[@CharlieSmurffy]

It’s because you’re gay. Idk if you’re homosexual tho

[@kimmypfeiffer9130]

it's the duality of man...sometimes you're dr. horrible and sometimes you're penny...i sang dr horrible's part for a long time but now i sing with penny

[@inaneinacheve]

I'm right in the middle : I sing the two parts

[@I_am_Jordan_K]

1:47 I never noticed that 1. Captain Hammer wipes his shoulder where the guy touched him, and 2. Dr Horrible is in the background with a fake mustache.

[@Tiarali]

He's also "feeding" the homeless by tipping the soup back into the pot, and giving them an empty bowl.

[@hux2000]

1:59 - It's brilliant the way this second verse combines the two vocal lines and it still works, even though they're singing in two different keys! (B minor & D major)

[@cellobeetle123]

I know, right? B minor and D major are relatives so they have the same key signature, just different tonics.

[@TheXipeTotek]

This is my favorite song in the whole movie. Everyone involved in this project is amazing

[@lenastorm6280]

Same!

[@pirateofthecarabiners]

Too bad about the fall of Joss Whedon

[@ianashmore9910]

​@@pirateofthecarabiners It really sucks that he got railroaded. We need his character dialogue now more than ever.

[@rome8180]

@@ianashmore9910 from what I can tell he's basically an asshole boss. I can't believe that qualifies for cancellation these days. His behavior pales in comparison to Hitchcock or Kubrick. We live in a puritanical, highly judgmental society where everyone thinks they have the full story and sees everything in black and white.

[@impinator-z4085]

The main thing I love from this song is just simply the clash with their lyrics. They resonate very well.

[@WhiteDarkness3113]

Amen to that Brother.

[@halfmoon1389]

I like how you can tell that Captain Hammer doesn’t really care about the homeless by his facial expressions

[@brewstopher2233]

Oh is that what they were going for. No shit buddy.

[@cskirb2]

He hates the homeless...ness problem.

he is a good actor

[@stephenleskowat4482]

He wipes his hand after shaking their hand too...

this show is so underrated

[@matthewmac5787]

i don't think you can really call this a show :/

this thing is so underrated

[@matthewmac5787]

there we go :P and yes i agree

[@facemite]

Don't think underrated is the right word everyone I know who has watched it has a very high opinion of it. Perhaps underseen.

[@atakandizarlar3484]

@@facemite Yeah you are right. I was probably under the impression of something must be either underrated or overrated when I commented. I still find it hard to grasp why the show is so uncommon.

[@fafflerproductions]

Given the fact this was made due to a writers strike and the cast said they'd do a sequel, I thought we'd get one with this writers strike. The creators even said "it'll take another writers strike to make a sequel"

[@nofoodbeforebed]

the end where they're slightly out of sync works so well for some reason

[@hux2000]

Musically, that's the best part. His vocals aren't modified to fit hers at all, nor vice versa. They're singing in two different keys (B minor & D major) exactly the same way they did in the previous verses, but it works because those keys share the exact same notes.

[@hannahspottedeagle7963]

This guy who I loved for six years showed me this now he's gone but I still love him.

[@rome8180]

My favorite song in this brilliant musical.

[@DarthTwilight]

Doctor Horrible, in the background, with a mustache.

[@hux2000]

It was actually Captain Hammer in the auditorium with the death ray. But thank you for playing Alt-Clue and better luck next time! :)

[@thebobbrom7176]

I think the greatest irony in this is that if Billy actually saw Penny as a person he could have easily gotten her. The reason she fell for Captain Hammer is because he was able to progress causes she cared about. This is something that Dr Horrible missed. Instead thinking that she wanted wealth and status when pretty much showing in every scene that was the opposite of what she wanted. Instead just use the inventions to help the homeless. Hell you can even keep the supervillain stiche threaten the Major to build homeless shelters or something. Captain Hammer is going to look really shitty if he stops you then

[@TTIOttio]

And in the end all it cost him to get into the evil league of evil… Was one Penny.

[@AwesomeYena]

​@@TTIOttioDude...

[@dynomar11]

So a thing about it is she's not an object to be won or gained. But the movie sure thinks she is. Laundry day is such a creepy song.

[@thebobbrom7176]

@@dynomar11 I think in isolation it's ok When I was a teen and kind of awkward around girls my relationship with my crush honestly was a lot like that song The issue is that it's called on. He doesn't get to know her as a person; he doesn't even really seem interested in her as a person. The issue isn't the song itself it's that the narrative seems to see women in the same way

[@skylerloggins4902]

Are terrible? Flatest and worst singer beyond a shadow of a doubt

[@phantommangagirl]

I had this soundtrack-and specifically this song-on repeat on my iPod back in 2008. I was fresh out of high school and was so happy to be able to sing Felicia Day’s part.

[@J0rdy.]

Used to watch this when i was 2-4 years old, still a huge fan of the actor and doctor horrible. Just finished an episode of doctor howser

[@darthcrio1]

Its plan to see that Evil inside of me is on the Rise

[@jmbwithcats]

Name a movie with great songs whose soundtrack was never released and wtf, fix this now! I'll start: Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, I demand a vinyl release! STAT! I'd settle for a 45 single of Neil Patrick Harris's single, Brand New Day.

[@morganwardfilm]

I know its not a good look to like this nowadays, but watching this sequence as a closeted pre-teen completely changed my life and inspired me in so many ways

[@numinous123]

Why isn't it a good look?

[@quietnerdything]

@@numinous123Joss Whedon is #cancelled and we’re not allowed to like anything anymore.

[@paulschuchts3837]

thankfully, those who realize bad people are capable of creating good art don't particularly have to worry about that

[@numinous123]

@quietnerdything I'll admit that Joss Whedon is a slimy character, but he made some good art. Sometimes you have to separate the art from the artist... even if it's difficult. Only Sometimes. For example, I like a lot of HP Lovecraft stories, but the writer himself was a pretty disgusting person towards people who were minorities or Jewish. So whenever I talk about him, I ALWAY mention that I hate the man, but not most of his writings.

[@BMoser-bv6kn]

@@numinous123 The sad thing is he was a much much much better person than Rowling is. In his later years he was 100% a new dealer, which Rowling will always oppose until the day we all die from ASI or global warming, whichever gets us first. Maybe I just have a soft spot for people who had to live in squalor and obscurity, something neither Rowling or Whedon will ever have to worry about. (Btw, webnovels are the pulp fiction of modern times. They'll never get any respect. Except for Twilight. ... and the Twilight fanfiction with the choking fetish. But those are special exceptions!)

[@coralroper6876]

No matter what show they’re in together, Nathan Fillion and Neil Patrick Harris are destined to be on opposite sides

Well I really love my eyes the song the most You're gonna be so mean about her songs but I just like the most So if you like this hit a thumbs up

[@WhiteDarkness3113]

I like how from Billy's Lyrics are fast and somber to reflect him being down on the world while Penny's Lyrics are slow and soft reflecting her her being up and optimistic on the world and seeing the good in people.

[@dommitchell4319]

I love how Penny and Billy's seperate vocal parts come together on either the same words or same vowels. It feels like the two characters are trying to connect with eachother but just keep losing connection or something idk maybe sideways could talk about it it's really cool but also fuck joss whedon

[@bast713]

All of this. Yes.

[@hux2000]

It does the same thing musically, too: in the second verse, he's singing in B minor and she's singing in D major. Both of those keys share the same notes so, as you say, it's like they're almost connected but not quite. Also, yes to the last part.

[@ianashmore9910]

You people are ridiculous. It's not illegal to be an asshole.

Joss Whedon's specialtu....what I call the "Anti -Duet"! they APPEAR 2:52 to be singing together,but they're really not......

[@johnb2422]

I like how she forshadows their duet/harmony with "some kind of harmony is on the rise.." next verse they're harmonizing.

[@ariaflame-au]

I quite like the juxtaposition of the word rise, but the falling pitch.

[@hux2000]

It works because his vocal is in B minor and hers is in D major, and both scales use the same notes. So they can sing in harmony while it still feels like they're disconnected, which is perfect for what the song is telling us about their relationship to each other.
