[@ragingtothemax]

i feel like a day hasn't gone by where I'm not recommend a cover of Never Meant.

[@alexbaribeault]

Same. Not that I'm complaining.

[@123w45-]

dude im stuck in a time loop

[@jeffjefferson3922]

I'll say!

[@MrSrponyboy]

Once every month for me

[@maximewikenfors6305]

Dude same! It’s something new every time I go on here. Can’t complain about it though

[@inco6nit0]

When nobody visits your animal crossing island

[@anopiniononyt9585]

i will visit ur island xx

[@isaacpacheco1963]

When you don’t have friends to invite to your island😢

[@swz.]

youtube keeps recommending never meant covers and i keep clicking on em 😎

[@ssvessels8168]

This is probably the best new interpretation of Never Meant. Captures seamlessly the quiet melancholy of the original while mixing it with Animal Crossing's signature style perfectly.

[@santiagobonetti16]

I was sad already actually but I unironically cried to this

[@J.13333]

Santiago Bonetti 0:43 hit different 😥🤘

[@josephpayne9011]

hugs

[@norandomstuff]

​@@J.13333bro went in an existential crisis when 👽 kicked in

[@aryastark3546]

When you’re Tom Nook and move out of the Midwest to make it big in NYC, leaving behind your your friends and family, only to get the shit kicked out of you by reality and the harshness of the city. After a few years grinding, you finally get sick of working at your dead-end job living in a shitty apartment and finally move back, where you realize that you’ve drifted apart from all your old folks, so with nothing to lose you start your own appliance store.

[@LastHope135]

Near the end of the year and you are playing Animal Crossing on Gamecube wondering where your life has gone and where its going, hoping that someday you'll live a good life

[@AidedDestructor13]

Good life will come my friend, just need to wait the hard times :)

[@somerandomidioticnerd9769]

Hm, life's kind of shit for all of us right now, but there's still light at the tunnel. Stay strong champ

[@IIIllllIIIIlllll]

[@Trotpowa]

3:28 i see what you did there, If I Sit Still Maybe I'll Get Out Of Here

[@silasb1293]

And Always Focused.

[@Lkease]

At the end I heard If I Sit Still, Maybe I'll Get Out of Here by TTNG and Always Focused by Tiny Moving Parts :)

[@birgerbaert6175]

My thoughts exactly. Great surprise

[@Rumpu5432]

Always focused cover would be awesome

WTF American Football, Tiny Moving Parts, Animal Crossing, Siivagunner.... I think I love you

[@becketclark9942]

Jingle bells really sold it. Was almost expecting a snow halation. Very wonderful transcription, happy to see this taking off on the algorithim.

[@XCeazyX]

The always focused part is actually such an incredible groove.

[@GeoffO856]

Still under 1000 views. The algorithm is sure to bring more of us this way.

[@ParadoxBoxx]

Most of the views are on the siivagunner version

[@damonmoney4474]

Nearly 11k now

[@eona2978]

Lucas Martin algorithm brought me here today o/

[@kingdohe]

[@SebastianLopez-os9py]

I still don't understand why this song gets so memed and covered like this but I fucking love it and hope this trend never dies

[@denisemanuel9549]

[@gabensan]

and tiny moving parts!

[@bensmith3006]

unironically crying to kk slider. what has my life come to?

[@ashlyn5222]

there is nothing wrong with crying to kk slider

[@SpaceFrog999]

kk slider doing the "oooverrrlyyyy" kills me

[@futhorck771]

I'm one of the first thousand viewers, I guess the algorithm realizes I love never meant memes

[@vikes484]

its. beautiful.

[@rocky-ie7li]

Midwest emo will always have a place in my heart 🖤

[@SHDW-sy7oz]

dang riffs at the end r the best

[@lavecjr]

This takes me back, its like yesteryear still rings my ear

[@cricksol]

I LOST MY SHIT WHEN KK SLIDER STARTED SINGING

[@WDC_OSA]

Damn! The transition to Sleepy Dog was really good

[@OhTheEzekiel]

Where was that at?

[@ColtonBCasey]

Thank you KZbin for recommending this

[@chaseh4739]

this is probably one of the best animal crossing covers i’ve heard

[@kamikazechivalry1264]

Nice ttng reference at the end.

[@livemusic200]

It took a minute for me to realize what this was, aside from a cover of never meant.

[@dasdatdirty]

deserves more attention

[@Imaproshaman7]

Adding K.K. really made this go from amazing to masterpiece honestly.

[@JoshWaites]

God I love all these Never Meant covers 💕

[@dadmadedinner5456]

When you turn 18 and Harv no longer wants you to visit his island.

[@JM.Y]

[@bijikedelai]

damn, now you need to make the full version of that TTNG song

[@kawhiamae1602]

This is amazing. Absolutely amazing. You’ve done gods work.

[@videomakertje]

If I Sit Still, Maybe I'll Get Out of Here & Always Focused

[@jario9]

[@Fire-Toolz]

[@duckduckgoose8049]

Nice This Town Needs Guns reference at the end

[@Bazzooka1518]

I don't understand how come this still has less than 5000 views. Holy crap, this is truly great. Bravo.

[@tomstaffordmusic]

this is so sick

[@ElliotCElliotson]

At the end I hear Always Focused by Tiny Moving Parts, am I going crazy?

[@ouroboser]

This is the best redo of this song I've ever heard

[@halfalseepbehindthewheel6482]

I imagine this is what plays when a villager asks to move to another island.

[@sienarodriguez8703]

god tier ttng reference

[@futhorck771]

This is genuinely good

[@RabbinzonMeloman]

Nice arrange music >:]

[@johangustafsson9252]

Haha the ending is brilliant!

[@psychedeIia]

this is so good wtf

[@wafflex7]

I literally receive a new remix of this song in the daily. No complaints. I love it. 💯💯

[@This-is-it-music]

it just turns into maybe if i sit still ill get out of here and always focused thats so based

[@RacnardWolf]

Oh my this is really good!

[@user-gu5fj9eg2g]

that’s so well done dude

[@lmahu6627]

Y'know, in the poster for the GC Animal Crossing, it was a bright, sunny day and there were villagers hanging out at the Player's house. Having that in mind makes the Never Meant house look more lonely, which matches the feel of the song.

[@galahad38]

so twinkly and pretty :D also great references :D

[@KawaiiPastel]

This is incredible!!

[@charizardmaster13]

Swear. never meant better blow up after all these memes

[@crogomu5858]

Damn, this is probably the best one!

[@Goawayalexander]

I love you

[@ahdlkasdjfhalsdkj]

The final part sounds like always focused

[@prod.mmmxnv91]

[@moss5356]

[@Theophonis]

Me this Friday y'all. Can't wait to see my animal friends again. It's been awhile.

[@hurricanepootis562]

I didn't expect to hear TTNG, but I loved it none the less.

[@markymark1644]

Best version

[@WhatSmada]

Yesterday was a Gameboy connected to some dudes guitar Today is Animal Crossing

[@happysadllama]

This is really well done! it could totally be labelled as a KK Slider cover in its own right.

[@nukeohio7227]

My favorite by far

[@connectcarl]

when ur favorite villager moves away

[@blarfblarfson]

I hope this meme never dies

[@beefjam7419]

Your favorite villager is moving to another island.

[@gianlucadidomizio1561]

the "overly dramatic" part is poignant

[@MagnumSanada]

3:40 - I’M GETTING HIGH, ON THE THOUGHT OF A FIST FIGHT.

[@ArmoredPorcupine]

When your animal crossing girlfriend breaks up with you.

[@HollowBxstion]

“K.K. Football is playing”

[@damonmoney4474]

This is beautiful. What is this made with / in the style of? Lots of people are mentioning animal crossing below but I’ve not played it

[@kowag0s]

Damon Money yeah it’s based off of kk slider from animal crossing! he’s this dog musician dude with a guitar who performs in like. live performances and in purchasable in-game albums and the ‘weh na wee no’ sounds are his vocals haha

[@piss4381]

stan dino

[@SnaptrixGaming]

I’m so glad you got the timing on the bass right, I heard one the other day and they completely missed it

[@terasuu]
