"Still Stuck Seaside" | A Hermitcraft Parody of "Mr. Brightside"

[@stealthlock6634]

“Stuck by the sea, lost in sunk-cost fallacy” That is a BRILLIANT LYRIC oh my gosh

[@Pixiemage]

Thanks so much! I love it too! It was actually the first lyric I came up with hah…I loved it so much I didn’t want it to go to waste and just HAD to make the rest of the song 😋

[@DarkRedX_X-gang]

As someone that writes alot of songs... Just no one knows... I can relate to ya.. you did great work!

[@nebulanyancat4533]

Using Grian’s chamber of secrets during the instrumental part? Brilliant. Just shows how deep his madness went

[@longstruck976]

the chamber of sea-critters* 😉

[@Pixiemage]

Exactlyyyy, you get it! The escalation of fishing insanity xD

[@LKos-nj9dt]

THE ANCIENT ART OF MINECRAFT PARODY IS ALIVE AND THRIVING WOOOOOOOOO

[@Pixiemage]

Heck yeah! 😂 I’ve even been contemplating recording a parody about looking for diamonds…what do you think, does that fit the genre lol?

[@wookiwoo2798]

@@Pixiemageyou should definitely add the clip of grian mining diamonds in scars tower of ores after blowing himself up 😂

[@megaminum8325]

Genuinely one of the best parody songs I've heard in a while

[@micayoung5578]

_i cannot get over "lost in sunk-cost fallacy" omg_

[@Pixiemage]

A favorite lyric of mine 😋

[@itsjustken1109]

Fishing in minecraft takes 5-30 seconds, so lets round it to 15. He fished nearly 6000 times, so that's 90,000 seconds. Turn that to minutes, then to hours, that's 25 hours of fishing. Yeah no wonder grian was going genuinely insane.

[@Lady_dromeda]

Oh my god

[@liaracochran7879]

He fished way over 6,000 times. He caught over 9,000 cod and fished more like 12,000 times, I'm pretty sure

[@Pixiemage]

@@liaracochran7879​​⁠​⁠Final screenshots the day he caught Mending actually had “fish caught” at 6,838 - I used that one while editing this 😋 So yes, he DEFINITELY used the fishing rod way more then 6,000 times…though I never did grab a screenshot of that number. BUT if OP’s math is the total time after only 6,000 fishing rod uses, I can only imagine the insane number he ACTUALLY hit as a grand total, good lord 0.0

[@itsjustken1109]

@@liaracochran7879 If what you say is correct, 50 hours doesn't exactly sound healthy either '._ .

[@Anonyomus_commenter]

@@itsjustken1109In fairness it’s his full time job to play (at this point) hermitcraft. Considering he got a decent amount of content via the rods, I’d say it’s fine.

[@harmonybeats]

Can't get over the clip choices and how Grain's skin progressed with the lyrics. Wonderful as always!

[@Pixiemage]

I won't lie I'm pretty proud of that 😋 There are a few clips that were out of order but I tried to stick to the timeline lol

[@harmonybeats]

@@Pixiemage It's deserved to be proud of it! It's wonderful!

[@SageTheMage88]

Who is this Grain character?

[@that-space-kid5807]

the use of doc and docks was so clever i genuinely need this to blow up its so fantastically made

[@Pixiemage]

Thank you so much!! 😊 I won’t lie, rhyming Doc with docks was one of the only times I’ve broken my rule about not rhyming a word with the same word - it’s different when it’s a name right? xD

[@Getsugaru]

@@Pixiemage It's not the same word, even though they are pronounced the same; they are merely homophones.

[@FR0571C]

I love finding random videos by creators who are diamonds in the rough. This is really good and probably gonna be replaying in my head cor the next few hours lol.

[@Pixiemage]

Oh my gosh thank you so much, that’s such a kind compliment 🥺

[@FR0571C]

​@@Pixiemage just replying to this to say it's still fire

amazing parody, thanks to the youtube for recomMENDING this one ;)

Maybe the real mending was the friends we made along the way..

[@HipposHobbyHours]

@@RosyBlannx Its certainly mending my mental health

[@Pixiemage]

Ayyy I see what you did there! ;D (Also thank you!!)

[@cleanbeanArt]

"Casting out another line" *The number of lines increases each time* xD Brilliant

[@perigrin6]

I always enjoy hermitcraft. But this season started harder than any other I can remember. Everyone just seemed so pumped and eager to get into craziness. Grian's insistence on fishing that cod-be-damned book and Zed's self inflicted struggle to make every aspect of the game more difficult had me checking my computer for new uploads more than anything else before.

[@kaded_cat]

This was so amazing oh my cod. Grian needs to see this ahahah

[@Pixiemage]

Ayy I see what you did there 😉 than you so much haha (I’m not sure what I’d do if Grian saw this, oh my goodness)

[@kaded_cat]

@@Pixiemage went with the pun last second ahahaha. I’d love to hear Grian sing it 💀

[@Kavric]

I've no idea why this popped up in my recommended today, but it slaps. 10/10 well done! Grian would be proud.

[@tcmecho]

HOLY MENDING THIS IS AN AMAZING PARODY???? An absolute bop with perfect lyrics?? How have I not found this sooner???

[@beethypoo]

i might actually need this on spotify, i dont want to stop listening to it lmao

[@Braydon-np8dc]

Yes

[@lemonbread378]

honoured to have watched this come together the lyrics, voice acting, video itself, awesome and hilarious amazing work, getting my "I was here" ticket in early!!!

[@j.p.1492]

I don't know why I got this in my recommended, but thanks YT lol. Everyone is talking about the lyrics but can we also appreciate the PERFECT choice of clips to go with it?!

[@נוהברנדל]

This is unironicly good

[@aczi2524]

i was listening to thos when i got informacion about getting a good grade on an impprtant exam so this is ofically a good luck symbol for me

[@catboygremlin]

ps this is still playing in my head 5 months later

[@Anonymous_Shadow-666]

You deserve a permit for that

[@27greenkazoos]

Once a week AT LEAST I rewatch this a few times. Its driving me bonkerinos I sing it around just whenever. Yer drivin me bonkerinos [All meant in a "Im very fond of this song" sort of way, ofcourse]

[@HermitcraftDiscussion]

That was incredible I want it on my Spotify playlist

[@ronii0209]

this is so GOOD! "lost in sunk cost fallacy" and you adding his clip of him finally getting the book is just *chef's kiss* ART

[@VoltasWolf]

This popped up in my feed and I am not disappointed, I do hope Grian sees this and either leaves a comment or nod to you for making basically a great song about his many many Many hours of fishing.

[@vinsworld_]

HOLY COW ITS THE FACT THAT I WROTE A VERSE PARODY FOR MR. BRIGHTSIDE ABT GRIAN’S FISHING ARC BUT THE VERSION U MADE IS 10X BETTER

[@Pixiemage]

Ayyy great minds think alike!!! 😋 I love that I’m not the only one who heard Mr. Brightside and went “Yup. Grian.” hahah

[@aymie_cutie]

This has been on repeat for the past few days

[@professorgallifrey]

The descent into insanity followed by the relief as he finally gets closure, very nice. You really got his tiredness and yearning for the book down!

[@joju997]

Excellent work, Pixie!

[@Pixiemage]

Ahhh hi friendo!!! Thank you! 🥰 It has been…a very silly project lol

[@dragendghast]

Genuinely clever lyrics, good sound mixing and excellent performance. I absolutely love finding gems like this, you've made one of the better parodies I have seen in quite a while, thank you for sharing tgis with the world!

[@ragdarkheart4914]

This is absolutely pawsome!!! If Grian seas this I bet he wood love it.

[@catboygremlin]

The lyrics? perfect. The singing? amazing. I couldn't help but sing along on my first listen. 15/10.

[@PeanutwormZ]

The dedication, the lyrics, the visuals!!!! just well made and well done i adore this

[@beeftips1628]

I really wish there were like ultra-likes or something, because you know it’s good when I go down to like a video and realize I’ve already liked it.

[@Animationswell22]

This was the first ever time ive heard of Mr Brightside and gotta say THIS IS AMAZING!

[@Rosemeadow403]

This is legitimately one of the best minecraft parodies I've ever heard! Great work!

[@Taffoman]

Wow! This was high quality parody! Some parodies only have a singular idea and the rest of the song falls flat. I think the lyrics were well thought out in this and I loved how the effects in the voice mimicked the original Killers song. Fantastic work! And this was before mentioning that the video editing was also done perfectly. (Also, special mention, the "Stuck in sunk cost fallacy" line was absolutely brilliant!)

[@Pixiemage]

Thank you so much!!! I'm a bit of an amateur when it comes to sound design, but I did try my best to replicate the original vocal style of Mr. Brightside. Glad to see it didn't go unnoticed! And that sunk-cost fallacy might have been the reason I even wrote the rest of the song lol...I wanted an excuse to use it xD I'm pretty happy it landed so well! I think some of the best parodies I've found, in Minecraft and elsewhere, try to tell some kind of story even if it's small. So if ever anyone wants to create one of their own, that's a great thing to keep in mind - even if that story is about finding diamonds in a video game, or feeding a digital fishing addiction 😋 Thanks again for leaving such a kind comment!

[@psychopathis3571]

Grian or the other hermits need to see this!!

[@Pixiemage]

Oh my gosh if they actually do find this I might lose my mind 🙈

[@doomawsogaming]

​​@@Pixiemagethere is hope. I felt that way with my fanart of them, and now xisuma used it in his thumbnail of how they run hermitcraft

Found this on my recommended, so glad I gave it a listen. It will now be on repeat for the next few hours while I do menial work :3

[@aspenstudios72]

This is amazing, the lyrics are very well-written!

[@red5_skywalker]

This video was how I discovered your channel, and I don't think I could have had a better introduction! This is amazing!! I love it!

[@4sent4]

This feels like an anime openning theme

[@Salix.]

I can't wait for the hermits reaction to this master piece

[@NattyDanger]

The line about sunk cost fallacy had me giggling. Great job, very fun!

[@user-jn4sw3iw4h]

Painting the flying fish around the lighthouse and the snail eating it as figments of grian's imagination as he is losing sanity that's some nice editing.

[@Scypek]

The whole music video is great. Diving, glitching into a bamboo boat, double fishing line glitch followed by the ten fishing lines, the hermit space program, someone else's mending book floating in the sea next to Grian's line... so many good moments arranged in a relevant way.

[@user-jn4sw3iw4h]

@@Scypek no argument there. Plenty of fun moments, well used. Still felt the _better than the source-material_ moment, deserved to be pointed out.

[@AceCJay]

I didn't expect this to actually be good lmao

[@plant_jam]

pixie!! this turned out so good!!

[@reubenparnell1604]

I was expecting it to be stupid but still enjoyable but what the heck, this is actually, unironically good I mean, it's still inherently kinda stupid, but like, in the best way

[@Pixiemage]

Hahah thanks! Of course, that perfect balance of quality and ridiculousness that Minecraft parodies are known for 😂 It wouldn’t be fun if I took it too seriously!

[@dolphinkid1522]

This is actually the greatest parody I have ever listened to Every verse kept getting better and better Genuinely I think my face was stuck between :O and :D for the *entire* duration of the song

[@elina3016]

Now THAT'S how you write a parody song!!

[@m.i.g1131]

NO CUS WHY IS THIS SUCH A BOP

THIS OH MY GOD. THIS IS AMAZING

[@leah5232]

I came into this expecting some kind of low-effort post with horrendous mic quality. Not an incredibly pieced together parody where everything fit together, the clips used worked well and for the singer to not be some 10 year old kid who hasn't hit puberty. 10/10 youve earnt a new sub.

Oh my goodness this is genuinely one of my favourite parodies ever!!! I really hope grian sees this, your lyrics are pure GENIUS, your voice is great and the clips you chose really fit the lyrics! This is so amazing, I’m going to loop it now and add it to my hc songs playlist! Thanks for making this, it’s incredible and you should be so proud! (Will definitely go and learn the lyrics now and then sing this parody whenever I next hear Mr. Brightside) 😁😁😁

This is the first parody to have taken me back to the og days of Minecraft parodies in a very long time if this had come out when I basically only listened to parodies it would have been up there with revenge for how much I would have played it It is truly impressive

[@Pixiemage]

Ahhh thanks so much! I grew up on parodies like those - "Screw The Nether" was a favorite of mine - so I was definitely channeling my inner Martyn Inthelittlewood and Captain Sparklez with this one lol. I've been tempted to try my hand at other Minecraft parodies for ages, so I'm grateful for my friends that finally encouraged me to finish this one. Pretty happy with how it turned out! ^^

[@The_Ace_Pelican]

@@Pixiemage I love all of Martyn's Parodies they were the first ones I really got into and I can definitely feel his influence on this and this song takes me back to a much simpler time and it's been quite the breath of fresh air. 😁
