Secret tunnel really does represent the Avatar fan base. It’s fun and goofy, but it’s also about preserving through hard times for the sake of love, how in darkness the light shines brightest purely because it’s hope. Despite everything working against them, these two people worked hard to be together and love each other. Avatar is a story about hope and goofy characters in a war torn world and this song so beautifully captures that.

[@BzClaw996]

You see sometimes a song that barely has lyrics and was made as joke really can be made as a full fledge orchestra it’s truly amazing

[@THECHEESELORD69]

I think that’s because the music is semi diegetic, nothing is producing it in the world (well besides the scenes with actual instruments playing music) but it’s like actual music that was “made” and possibly played in that world!

[@Lifegivinglemons]

This is definitely my favorite version of the song, even if it's just Secret Tunnel about 50 times in a row.

[@sathirakatugaha974]

Avatar is one of the few pieces of media that can make me cry everytime. Unbelievable how much emotion was put into one show

[@quandaledingle3759]

Alr lil man

[@indiedavecomix3882]

And laugh at the drop of a hat. It's great how they can do it without seeming jarring. It great writing and great voice performances.

[@masamune2984]

This…is a humorous moment…wtf lol

[@Youre.mom_]

Yes 🥹

[@xpendabull]

How the hell did they turn one of the most meme worthy moments in the show into the perfect tribute to the triumph of love and friendship over adversity?

[@kweebec]

Like me, you are probably wondering why you're crying over this. I think it speaks volumes that a silly little song, starting as a jokey gag from the writers all that time ago, can now be reembraced as this symbolic representation of the show as a whole by a much wider fanbase. It's this goofy, fun, innocent, joyous celebration of a journey we all experienced, and a reminder that you can be serious and comical at same time.

[@thecrispyacorn]

Yes I agree

[@angelousmortis8041]

I'm singing along as the video plays and not gonna lie, the pauses and breaks are matching almost fucking perfectly. My man singing live is going through the exact same emotional roller coaster we are.

[@MrDrewseph]

Yup I'm crying thanks

[@BananaBotanists]

Kweebec Corner! I love you vids😎😎

[@jamall7003]

So um... do you know when they are gonna finally release Hytale? With gta 6 around corner it'll be crazy if that comes out first right? 😅. Edit: That was absolutely beautiful btw it really put me to tears and to see this community all come together like we are to celebrate an old show from our childhood... I'm proud to be apart of this journey we're on as fans of the show. 😊

[@violetsynthesis8322]

I’m so glad this show got a resurgence during the pandemic. One of the best shows to ever exist

[@stargirl7646]

Oh it wasn’t just me who watched it then?!

[@linneathesystemsdruid308]

What’s the other best?

[@JKSSubstandard]

@@linneathesystemsdruid308 Kids shows? Samurai Jack. The attention to art and sound design that went into that show is astounding. If Avatar is like reading a well crafted story. Samurai Jack is like walking through a hall of oil paintings. The overarching story isnt there, but every one off is a masterpiece.

[@lindaschreifels9889]

I was there for the 2pm matinee. It was so much fun.

[@DeadNotSleeping789]

I imagine that's part of what makes this song so good for performances. The audience can give it as much reverence or goofy passion they feel like giving in that moment.

[@shnugle4514]

Ikr???? HOW DID SECRET TUNNEL MAKE ME CRY????

[@kweebec]

Because the genius of this piece, is that it begins initially as a tribute to the actual song from the show, but the visuals slowly help paint the bigger picture. Secret Tunnel is this goofy, almost ridiculous song that made us laugh as children. It was a catchy tune that helped deliver exposition and introduce some quirky characters. But when you zoom out and think about it, the song is a perfect reflection of the show. It's this goofy, self-celebratory, gleeful journey, but there's a deeper subtext and emotional meaning that guides the whole show. I think what hits for me the most is that all these people can gather together, sing in unison, and share their memories of a show that was a huge part of their lives. Just repeating the verse over and over helps us tune it out and focus more on what memories it evokes.

[@arnear_vds]

He who put the unions in front of me :)

[@astrotter]

Simple, shared, wholesome joy moves us. It's one of the things that gives me hope.

[@gsintampalam]

Wait where other lyric he forgot "and die.." before they entered the tunnel.

[@VoonNBuddies]

Seeing this in SF with a room full of people losing their minds was like a spiritual experience! Zuckerman introduced it himself. People went crazy when they got 1 second of Zutarra lol.

[@L3ONSK11]

It was good but could have been better. Sounded like they used a backing track

[@IamKnucks]

This is the version the live action TV show needed.

[@sushibinstwt_]

[@epiclight858]

Yeah that junk is garbage. This is what killed the last 10 years of no avatar animation

[@lazerrhino]

It's the worst episode in the live action tv show too. They totally butcher the importance of the episode to aang and kataras character arcs

Oh god this got me teary eyed. Avatar is so nostalgic and hearing an awesome live version like this with so many avatar fans in one place, it’s magical.

[@hagridswagrid2643]

It's beautiful how this song symbolises that amongst all the hardships in life, (considering a bunch of kids had such insane responsibility to stop a war) there can still be moments of childlike joy, because life can't all be serious. Katara was right about all her speeches of hope

[@jacobr7546]

I’ll keep saying it, no other show so greatly captivated my imagination, told a timeless story, and tugged at my emotions than AVATAR.

[@oswakazimi5532]

[@kaarinapolly2293]

I love how emotional everyone becomes because of how nostalgic this show makes us. Hoping Netflix keeps the live action for another season!

[@Bandikit]

2:58 it was at this point that I started crying. Seeing all the relationships flash by just touched me. I did NOT expect to cry when watching this, but this is Avatar, why should I expect anything different?

[@whowantmuffin]

Just went and saw this in Pittsburgh last night, not only was it an amazing show, but the audience was electric, the hooting and hollering for the final Agni Kai, the collective groaning for jets part, and the sniffles for leaves from the vine The audience/fan base was really what makes any experience worth it

[@kikazzblackguy17.26]

Bro the chills are so real right now

[@j.m.zhausues6605]

I've been obsessed with this song for a little under a month after rewatching atla, I've learned how to play it on guitar as well, this is literally the best thing I've seen atla fans do ever, and I've met Toph and Zuko (very nice people btw)

[@Birdyboys]

I love the people bobbing their heads together

[@willkoestner4159]

I just weep everytime I watch this. I think I finally realize why. Life is a brutal unforgiving story. But tucked into every corner is whimsy, and love and laughter, growth and transformations that seem impossible. And so so many moments that not even the darkest of days have the power to lessen. No one knows where the dark days end, but we always have those moments. Its unfair how lucky we are to suffer for these little moments.

[@NinjaAdorable]

OMFG this show was perfect in every aspect! The art, the animation, the story, the world building, the music, the philosophy!! Some parts are goofy, some are downright heart wrenching, and some just drops a ton of wisdom on your head!

[@Pixal_Dragon]

I kind of wish there was a more serious extended version of the lyrics, without the repeating secret over and over and the “I forgot the next part but the chorus goes…”, like the melody genuinely slaps and the lyrics that do exist to it go hard.

[@PossumMedic]

The show could be this song 12x in a row... and I'd still go see it twice! 😂

I know why I'm crying. When I first heard this song in the show, I was a kid, who had yet to know the true meaning of the story of the two lovers and how the tunnel represents hope for the future. And hearing it now, in this Powerful and moving way, it's reminding of how much I've grown since then, and how much I have done for Love and Hope, with much of the wisdom that the show portrays... it really helpt me feel... understood, back when I was young, but even More so now.
