Hurt - Sad Kermit

[@kateallen4814]

I accidently watched this back when it was first released and I was like 7 it disturbed me to see Kermit so depressed...

[@Sinnerboy88]

Hell it disturbs me today. :(

[@vanillabatcave5677]

hehe, 7 year old you saw Kermit wanking.

[@ZombaJuice]

I was 30 when it was released. This thing hit hard

[@TuckFEMU]

How young ARE you? Fifteen years ago, I was a year out of high school.

[@michellehenderson9976]

He said it wasn't easy being green. We didn't listen.......We didn't listen 😔

[@aaronmelton1374]

That's such a beautiful reply

[@aaronmelton1374]

We did not listen....Piggy was karate chopping him .....he needed pain meds

[@t00tednz00ted]

The signs were there. We chose to ignore them 😭

[@Bubblebutt99]

We shoulda listened 💔

[@blueschewy2558]

I like it when he glances at the picture of Jim Henson when he sings about everyone he knows going away in the end.

[@anthonyingraham4917]

😢 When we are kids we cry to be heard, but as adults we cry in silence....Justice for Kermit another victim of the industry 😪😞

[@212mattman]

he is so deep. i love it when comedians show that they can be serious to

[@oriolesandravens]

I still love this video. And I find the first part "goes away in the end" when he looks at the photo of him and Jim ... so ... sad ... and so ... disturbing. It almost makes me cry even after twenty views or so.

[@waltersobchak7275]

Read yours right after I thought the same!! Twas deep to say the least!!!

[@AleK0451]

it was pretty deep when he started eating pussy

[@Poopiesnoopies]

I guess we took "Its Not Easy Being Green" too lightly. Who knew Kermit dug himself that deep.

[@vankai6817]

How does this only have 400k lol it’s almost an OG video

[@ajzeg01]

This is actually a great cover, perfectly mixing the Nine Inch Nails and Johnny Cash versions, and the emotions hit. It’s also kinda funny.

[@SinkingShipProd]

I love that a muppet can look halfway convincing with a guitar when pop stars fail massively to convince they're even sure how to hold one on stage and in videos.

[@ellezeebub]

Ahhh, so sad. "everyone goes away" with Jim Henson in the picture ... oh my darling, Jim Henson died of a cold ... we all go to eternity ... still, I loved the song, I loved Kermit, and God help me, I cried like a baby when Jim Henson died.

[@kasumi421]

Absolutely true. But this one hurts the most. Poor Kermit. Life must be hard without Jim.

[@StelBoy2008]

Fun Fact: The original version of this video got taken down after The Jim Henson Company filed a copyright claim against it. Therefore, canonically speaking, Kermit has been a druggie, alcoholic, tried to commit not-alive, & has blowed Rowlf the Dog.

[@j_jizzle_69]

Gone the way of the wabbit

[@StelBoy2008]

@@j_jizzle_69 yeah but this was way before the wabbit.

[@CynicalOldDwarf]

Was there a video for Something I Can Never Have?

[@npcknuckles5887]

Watched this when it first came out. Watched again in 2024. Still a great cover.

[@jacobthedragon7450]

This was long before stupid AI songs from Tik Tok existed

[@FourKaiju]

Shows how much we humans have lost faith in ourselves.

[@seanhansen5641]

@3:06 your cherished childhood memories destroyed. What has been seen...

[@MrGreekthanos]

that's kermit cobain....

[@codyross2403]

No, that's Kermit Cash...

[@timleek948]

Cody Ross actually, NIN

[@blueschewy2558]

@@timleek948 Trent Reznor's lyrics and Johnny's voice made for a memorable track.

[@kane2742]

I was hoping it would change "my sweetest friend" to "my Swedish friend" and show the Swedish Chef.

[@govetter]

POPCORN!

[@taurusfroggy]

LMAO!!!

[@fittiesx]

So beautiful, so poignant, so all-encompassing. A wonderful representation of the struggle for peace. Did Kermit croak at the end? Get it?! Croak?!?! Hahahahahahahhahha!!!!!!!

[@twohazelii]

I totally understand what you're going through Kermit. ♡u. ♡these covers by sad Kermit

[@capitanmission]

@anubisgothlord This frog has talent. Really. Not all covers of this song are good. But every cover that this frog makes, its awesome!

[@TriptykalBabe]

That shit is hysterical. No seriously.....

[@kirixen]

1:42 I cry, every time.

[@Poopiesnoopies]

Brilliant, great attention to details.

[@Xichtli]

no manchen... casi me infarto, la inocencia de mi infancia rota por un video que esta de poca manera...

[@skunknath5209]

Génial ! super bien fait, j'adore

[@Grampssssss]

When it said “you could have it all” I was sincerely hoping he would start just singing wonder wall

[@MarcusRobertsonTwo]

I almost balled out in tears when Kermit sang "everyone i know goes away in the end" and he turns back to a picture of jim henson. ):

[@chungman6167]

Can't wait for the mixtape

[@3018mercintell]

...reminds me of this dream i had about the muppets riding on a bus, crashing, and finding nothing but the white stuffing that fills their precious little bodies all over the road.

[@trentl-p8w]

Cool

[@Xarfax321]

I guess none of us really knew how bad things were for poor Kermit... With all the fame and all... I wonder when he releases his biography. "Laughter and Screaming: The Kermit Story".

[@MatthewBowlin-j3t]

Rest in peace Paul you gave us tons of knowledge that we'll never forget

[@Alexlemay17200]

Stopped me from cutting...

[@MarcelloJRuiz]

This is the best video of all time 😅😅😅😅😅😅

[@joemasters2270]

Poor Kermit needs a hug

[@TheFritzopup]

Wow!! The Kermit we never knew but always suspected existed!!

[@MrsTaraDawes]

And there went the last shred of my childhood o.0 I am so disturbed by this yet find it strangely amusing.

[@KIA130123]

15 years ago?! This just popped into my head as a thing and I had to go look it up.

[@iancrates8962]

I can't believe Johnny Cash fucked up this Kermit song.

[@adriansolem5146]

this is a cover of the original song. not the johnny cash song :p

[@prefectlymuda]

+Adrian Solem *whoosh*

[@zakiachman]

by nine inch nail

[@nedgronow3479]

its a joke

[@zakiachman]

lol i just got it

[@Freelancer4tehwin]

So... We all agree that the Song of the Year Grammy should have to pass the Kermit test first, right? Like, if Kermit can't make it a banger, it doesn't count.

[@kidhines]

thanks Kermy got me through another day

[@filmesocialismo]

Oh yeah! Kermit lives forever, and so does Jim Henson.

[@WBX555]

The most interesting part of it is that it's so NIN

[@Ieatbabyseals]

Did anyone get really sad when it showed the picture of Jim Henson? I almosted bawwed.

[@Xarfax321]

Oh no... I did not know Kermit was so troubled.... Perhaps that was why his show was cancelled, he could not keep up his act. Lets hope the movie gave him some reason to sober up an restart his career.

[@ydoomenaud]

That this was my introduction to the song 2 decades ago says entirely too much about me

[@snoogans999]

@whitestripebuzz though Trent himself said it became Johnny's song as soon as he heard it. Like how Dylan said Watchtower became Jimi's.

[@asbestosfish_]

Fun fact: the original version of this song was written in 1903 and is kept in the Vatican’s secret library.

[@HumpX]

Doin' a bindle with Kermit, yeah boyeee!

[@betterthanyification]

Kermit should do the entire Downward Spiral album. :U

[@TuckFEMU]

Not sure if I should like this. On the one hand, it's KTF. OTOH, my homeboy died this way. RIP Cutter.

[@rivotrich7]

Fame and fortune and stardom can ruin anybody, even a muppet.

[@Ieatbabyseals]

...The guy who created the muppets. He voiced Ernie on seseme streat, and he voiced kermet and a bunch of other characters. He also created all of the puppets.

[@agentsmith8001]

Oh internet

[@JeffBecerra1]

Awesome. I didn’t know Tom Petty covered this.

[@bethgoshorn6050]

Jawbus should sing this song while crying.

[@shoobeedoowah]

This video was one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen. LMFAO. Keep it up.

[@TheHappyjack1]

because of this video my inner child is crying right now! lol

[@awesomegirl7171]

Man...Sad Kermit depresses me. Haha! But I like it.

[@asmasheduppumpkin5]

I'll never look at the muppets the same way again.

[@joshuapurity-old]

this really is sooo sad!

[@MychaelHelmz]

This Sh!t Is So Fuct & Funny... Especially Needle In The Hay... Epic!!!

[@needhamxc]

how is it that everyone is arguing about who wrote this song and ignoring the fact that kermit is blowing some sort of red dog in this video....i think that ruins my childhood more than him swearing

[@zuhayrah]

The song still makes me some what sad even tho it's Kermit

[@govetter]

All the 'old-folks' are CROAKING! Dammit! achem, I mean RIBBIT!

[@Ihateworking1]

Trent Reznor should go on tour with Kermit, Trent needs some color up there on stage...

[@solwrappednpaperlips]

I only know the Jonny Cash interpretation and though I find the parodie is funny I can't avoid to think tabout the reality that is behind the funny side and to the suffering of people that are in this horrible addiction. I hope my son won't touch to these sad sad things !Anyway poor poor little frog addicted can anyone help? LOL

[@jamespeterson1630]

I saw Secular Talk on Twitter post a gif of the scene from this where Kermit shoots up heroin lmao

[@benmasse4263]

Amazing

[@slovok]

@wiliste That's wrong. Nine Inch Nails sang it originally. Johnny Cash's version is the cover. I do prefer Johnny's version, but yea, needed to be corrected.

[@jlobiafra]

I prefer this era of kermits career over the Rainbow Connection era

[@Just1Spark]

Totally awesome! 1:46

[@KevinBrownjr]

I was in eighth grade when I first saw this and thought it was so disturbing

[@mayfirerose]

Oh yes. And so much more....

[@riodv]

Kermit shooting up, downing pills & booze, having a meltdown and blowing Rolf...whoa. I got nuthin'... :-O

[@BradLednik]

that is so f'd up... i love it.

[@Sasserfrats]

Haha this is actually pretty sad man.

[@773SleepyHollow]

@dwc2107 Just to clarify, I agree with Dr. Venom (and with Trent Reznor I might add) that Johnny's version of "Hurt" is the best, but I don't agree that Nine Inch Nails sucks.

[@BananaHeroine]

kermit curses, this ruined my childhood. anyways, awesome idea.

[@cobaingirl420]

brilliant

[@bobbyt4578]

Hahaha, I just love it :D

[@slimeytoes]

A mark of good song writing is it's ability to transend genres. like Green Day being covered by a blue grass band or NIN being sung by a Muppet.

[@platinum01]

why the thumbs down....he did...

[@aaronmelton1374]

When they panned to the pic of Jim Henson o started crying hahaha

[@legofilou1092]
