[@laughingfurry]

I'm indifferent to the series, but I won't deny that the music slaps. The other movie soundtracks are also worth a listen. And here's where I go through the usual song and dance of music I'm curious of your reaction to. Final Fantasy. There doesn't seem to be a reaction to this series and I saw no one recommend it, so that's first. Three songs I recommend are Liberi Fatale, Answers, and 1000 Words. Now for the typical. Guilty Gear Strive: Drift, Carve Your Way, & The Name if Heaven. Just going to name three songs. Gensokyo Holoism. Just naming the album like I did before. Simply because those within the Vtuber and Touhou Project communities have incredible music. So, why not both. I do think these are selections you may find interesting.

[@melancholyjones2873]

Fun fact! Boo york used only 1 female & 1 male vocalist, so ALL the songs are performed by the same 2 ppl. The entirety of "steal the show" is one person singing as 3 characters! Just shows how well the composers & vocalists did in making the style of each song & character voice distinct ///EDIT yes, in "empire" cleo's dad is the same vocalist as pharaoh, edited to make the voice lower Also a lot of the songs were shortened in the movie/music videos, esp "it can't be over", but the ost has the full versions Also also, monster high released a live action musical movie last year. I haven't seen it but if you're interested in hearing a more modern mh, check it out!

NO ONE EXPLAINED, okay I'm only 1:12 in BUT Deuce (green guy) is the son of a Gorgon (maybe Medusa, unclear). Cleo is the second born daughter of the Pharaoh, so she's a Mummy. Their whole thing in the OG Monster High was to show that "scaritage" (heritage) didn't have to stop you from loving who you love... ... Except also Cleo was a high class gal and Deuce was a dude who tended to be just chill. Which was the sub-plot "It Can't Be Over" covers.

I am not in this fandom. But from what I learned from my little brother. His mom is implied to be Medusa (it says this in Deuce's diary), and that's why she's upset his pet rat is named perseus (in Greek mythology, perseus is the dude that beheads Medusa).

Boo York has some of the BEST songs from the series! So glad you reacted to them!

[@Sirenhead09]

Answering every single one of Mathew's Questions cause I'm bored: 1. Monster High is the daughters and sons of famous monsters going to high school like Dracula, The Mummy, and Frankenstein 2. Cleo and Deuce are the characters in the first song. Deuce is the son of Medusa and Cleo is the daughter of The Mummy, they're together but Cleo is rich and successful, unlike Deuce. Cleo's family doesn't approve so Deuce sings a whole EDM song about how it's over 3. Monster High has several feature films and TV series, Boo York Boo York being one of them. Most of the songs you listened to were from that movie and the theme song plays at the beginning of each movie and I believe is the theme song for the series? 4. The premise of Boo York Boo York is that the main ghouls (girls) take a trip to Boo York (New York) basically a lot of the places have puns for names like Scaris for Paris or New Goreleans for New Orleans. They also have puns for different terms like ghouls for girls or cool, drop-dead gorgeous, mansters for men 5. The people singing in Empire are Cleo's sister and dad and they're singing about being rulers or something like that I don't exactly remember but yeah she wants to rule the world and be rich and in charge 6. It's not just you that thinks these are a bop I swear, I have multiple Monster High songs on my playlist, they are in fact an absolute banger 7. The first girl singing in Steal the Show is named Toralei and is in fact the bully bitchy character you asked for. She has a really bad singing voice so she used some fancy crystal gem to steal Catty Noir's (The black cat with pink hair) voice from her and went on to sing Steal the Show since no way?!?! She's stealing the show. Then all the ghouls break in and are like hey you can't do that la la la la la we came to save the show 8. In the song Boo York Boo York, Pharaoh is the rapper who's mom wants to make him king of the world in competition with Cleo's family (I think????) but Pharaoh prefers to live a life of music so he's like no mom I'm not gonna feed into your stupid rivalry I found a girl I love (Catty Noir) and I want to make music *Starts rapping* also yes there was a girl DJ'ing over top of his rapping, she DJ's for his live performances if I remember correctly 9. I genuinely can't explain the eye guy at the end Thank you for your time I had nothing to do you should do more Monster High music cause it SLAPS (I can't think of a weird spelling to show how much it slaps but trust)

[@jaycaspian2137]

Number 9😂😂😂

[@thedanishcatgirl3205]

[@avajones6835]

I could be wrong, but I’ve downloaded most of the songs from this movie, and in a lot of them (mostly Empire) whatever reverb or thing they put on the vocals is gone somehow. So the dad’s gruff voice sounds like a young Pharaohs voice, which makes me think that the Monster High team only had two vocalists the male and female, and used them for every song. This makes me so happy because now “Steal the Show” isn’t a battle between vocalists, it’s one super talented girl one upping herself to improve on an already impressive song!

Yeah, monster high has 3 gen, gen1 had a bunch of animated movies and a tv show, it’s by far the best version.

[@riotroyale]

Empire was and will forever be one of my favorite songs EVER the hype and the empowerment in the chorus is just unmatched

[@FallenGhoul]

The monster high fangirl in me has been brought out to answer the question you posses. In the easiest way possible MH is about the children of legendary monsters and mythological creatures. So yes all these girls are in high school, though the ages of each of the ghouls can be kind of confusing. We try not to think about it. And one thing you kind of learn is that our main group of ghouls are very well off girls. Traveling around the world in the movies is very easy for them. In Boo York Boo York, the ghouls get invited by Cleo, daughter of the mummy and Egyptian royalty, to visit Boo York for a famous comet ceremony run by her family, the de Nile’s. Her name is a pun on Cleopatra but she’s not related or named after her, according to her diary entries. Now the songs you listened to are out of order so I’ll try and keep it as concise as possible. Empire is the first to appear from the ones you listened to. In it we see Cleo’s older sister, Nefera and their father Ramses devising a plan to use Cleo as a marital pawn. Ramses hopes to form a partnership with the Thalami family by marrying off one of his daughters to the only son of the family, Seth. Nefera being the selfish and spoiled princess she is, decides to sacrifice Cleo instead by causing a breakup between her and Deuce Gorgon, Cleo’s long time partner. This Can’t be Over, is the result of Nefera’s scheming. From all the material to this point it is clear how much Cleo and Deuce love each other. But it’s also made very clear the De Niles disapprove of Deuce because he’s just a common skater instead of a royal prince. And this isn’t the first time the family interferes with their relationship but it’s the first time Deuce is the one to break the relationship. Deuce is a sweet and loving man, who adores Cleo like a queen. When he believes he’s ruined her chance to be happy and move on to greater things, Nefera convinces him to leave her so she can get a chance to reach better. And while it hurts him he lets her go, running from his feelings in the process. Which leads us to the night of the ceremony. Using her distraught state, Nefera convinces Cleo to not only attend the ceremony but accept the promise ceremony with Seth Thalami, having them be bounded by the power of an ancient comet. But due to some other story moments Seth denies the ceremony and removes his mask, revealing to everyone that he is in fact Pharaoh, a popular rapper on the streets of Boo York. Choosing his own freedom he sings his heart out to the city, and to his newly found friend, Catty Noir. A recently gone on hiatus pop star that was finding her own voice with the ghouls. After they run away, Nefera needs to come up with a new plan. Using the power of the comet she literally steals Pharaoh and Catty’s voices, giving the comet to Toralei so she can dispose of it. Toralei being the self interested wild card that she is uses the comet to give herself their voices and with her new skill, takes the stage of Bloodway. There the ghoul confront her, being lead by new friend Luna Mothews. Luna’s entire story in the movie is being a star struck actress wanting to make it to bloodway and this was her chance to be in that stage. And the song leads to Catty recovering her voice as the story continues. This has been the Ghoul recap. It’s always fun to see you enjoy getting to experience music from series you’d never really think to check out. Boo York Boo York was the only MH musical released during the first generation, being the second to last movie released in the shows runtime. It holds a very special place in my heart so it was a real treat seeing you experience it. I will say all the songs you listened to are the cut versions made for the movie. The album version does include longer versions, especially with This can’t be over, going from a minute long song to a full length song. Would definitely recommend listening to them on your own time. And here’s hoping we can see more MH Music reactions since the series holds a lot of fun tracks.

[@BitesforNugget]

OH MY GOSH, YES. MONSTER HIGH IS SO TOP TEIR 🛐🛐 Edit: To explain the first song, Duece, the gorgan (snake haired dude), is/ was Cleo's boyfriend. Cleo's sister and father, Nefera and Ramses (the ones in Empire), disapprove of him because he's not up to their standards as royals/high class. Throughout the movie as a subplot they find little ways to humiliate him in front of her and make him think he's not good enough for her, which leads him to being so insecure about their relationship that he ends things, thinking she deserves better.

My favorite is definitely Steal The Show, but the entire movie is packed full of awesome songs! I would honestly love to see you react to some of the original Monster High (which was actually a bunch of animated shorts. Every one was only a few minutes long, or sometimes less.).

Duece and Cleo breaking up in the most dramatic way possible Matthew: OH I LOVE THIS IT'S SUCH A BOP

[@Jcartist_10]

The song with the Toreli the Butterfly girl and Catti Noir (the black cat girl) Toreli use the pink crystal to steal Catti Noir, who is a famous singer in their world, voice and use it as her own to become famous too, the songs was basically the group trying to get it back so Catti could perform

9:10 "This song is going to be stuck in my head for the rest of my life." ... True that.

[@scarletrevon522]

I grew with these and I still love these movies and all the songs are amazing so thank you so much for reacting to these hope you do more

[@Obsidianeyes431]

What a blast from the past! I loved empire when I was little and I definitely helped to shape the kind of music I like today.

[@Pixell00]

I think you would like the music in Centaurworld, they went all out for that show. One song in particular I would recommend is welcome to the bay.

[@cabbagedragon302]

I want to see how this man reacts to "Comfortable Doug". 😆 "Who is she" and "Riders lullaby" are also ones I think would be cool to get his reaction to.

[@Veracaide-st]

*The nowhere king* and *taurnado* and *it’s hidin’ time* are like- so good, also *last lullaby pt 1* and *elk tour suite pt 2 and 3* AND *nothing good*

12:23 At least I'm not the only one who got caught off guard by that close up on first viewing. Makes me really curious as to why the animators made her throat the focal point.

[@scary-sounds]

I loved watching this series. The songs were fun add ons but the series was amazing.

[@Itsme3487]

Omg i had no idea this video existed, I'm so glad i found it, i loved every second of it! Love Monster High and i love your content!

[@Anna-B]

I loved Monster High as a kid! I’m kinda surprised, because I was SO girly girl pink

[@mattoderso7612]

I AM SO GLAD YOUR DIVING INTO MONSTER HIGH this made my day you have no idea

[@purplefirekitty1]

For anyone who is wondering the third song is the theme to the original webisod series done in a music video style

[@KiraFox1]

Monster High was my entire childhood! I am so excited to introduce the new generation (my little sister) to the very thing that made me, inspired me in ways barbie could not when I had to grow up being different/disabled, would love to see you react to more!

[@vvgirl6173]

Boo York was my favourite movie growihg up. I had the dvd and i would watch it on repeat and i still listen to the songs to this day.

[@starrlunas]

[@Mariam-dj4jk]

I'm so excited for this 🎉

[@dylanlynch9859]

I’m glad you’ve decided to dip your toes into this franchise. Hopefully you can squeeze Cool Cat and My Moon from the G3 series into the next video where you react to songs.

[@tomsparrow1823]
