[@casugh8434]

the fact that "Science says you're dead and gone forever, reason says i'm talking to the air" isnt on here is criminal but i loved this

[@londongirl2768]

I haven’t finished the video but based on the thumbnail I was assuming that would be the last one

[@Angie-Way]

ohhhh that is the one line that hits me the hardest

[@farandaway123]

Literally the one I thought of when I clicked on the video lol

[@johanaytb211]

Wait, what is that one from?

[@TincanTophat9907]

Twisted

[@bluegummybear8667]

dylans shoulders must be sore from carrying the emotional weight of every musical hes ever performed in

[@SingingSealRiana]

Hell yeah!!!

[@chasw]

my non native arse first thought you just wrote his last name wrong first im sorry

[@slimyduck2140]

I thought the exact same lol​@@chasw

[@queenjamjam]

Hahaha really! But im not complaining. I love his voice and especially in emotional songs

[@carysdavies2603]

But what about how heartbreaking orphaned at 33 is

[@auraliecherise]

LMAO

[@genericname2747]

I cri everyrime

[@gabbyo9649]

it is a CRIME that the “why does it hurt to love you” bit from not your seed isn’t on here /nm

[@auraliecherise]

SO TRUE

[@SingingSealRiana]

IS in my top 3

[@ripplesripley]

"who cares if no one will ever mourn me?" ALWAYS gets me like it makes me want to cry and throw up

[@fitz7449]

7 of these are Dylan, he evidently is great at depressing lines

[@SingingSealRiana]

Yeah . . .He can really sell it

[@samanthasinger7235]

14:15 tbh the most heartbreaking bit is the second he asks the rhetorical question, he answers it, cutting off the musical beat and breaking the rhythm bc it's such a non-choice for him, he barely thinks on it for a lightning quick second before answering. there's no pregnant pause, or moment where we think he'll really choose inaction, bc he literally cuts off the pause almost immediately.

[@lilymoon2829]

9:53-10:28 when I tell you this bit had me WEEPING, especially how Jon delivers "I'm not a loser"... chills. And the fact that Jon hadn't done much singing before TGWDLM ist just bonkers, he has the most unique and moving voice! So glad he's a part of Starkid honestly.

[@Light-fi1mj]

Spies are forever coming with the smackdown and OH MY GOD ITS BLACK FRIDAY WITH THE STEEL CHAIR

[@redacted5078]

This is missing the entire soundtrack of Twisted imo

[@katiem.3109]

Jemilla's lament from firebringer should be on here. Ex: "I guess I'm all alone, from now on. I'm out here on my own, singing songs. If only I could have two voices, I'd harmonize, but that's not a choice I can make."

[@gramps3351]

"THIS SCROOGE!" "You don't know what this cost!" "THIS SCROOGE!" "You don't KNOW what you've lost!" That emphasis Is HEARTBREAKINGGG

[@auraliecherise]

8:51 WHY HAVEN’T MORE PEOPLE SEEN VHS CHRISTMAS CAROL?!!???? ITS SO FUCKING GOOD!!! Like Meredith, Brian, Dylan, and even AJ came back to do it!! One of the only Starkid shows with no skipable songs

[@Nyxxeonn]

The only bad thing about VHS is that it's not long enough! it's such a good musical to the point it feels like it's only been 5 minutes, but in reality, 45 minutes have passed and it's over!

[@Nkp_09]

MAMD finally getting the respect it deserves

[@auraliecherise]

[@je5631]

Just for Once is so criminally underrated I broke my heart out to 3 three "just for once" at the end that Lauren belts and the "I used to dance..."

[@LilyK314]

I love that almost all of Life was included in this. such a good song

[@starkid.brainrot]

THANK YOU FOR ADDING STARRY AND PULP MUSICALS, THEY NEED MORE APPRECIATION!!!

[@katyishere]

I had no idea they existed until this video

[@auraliecherise]

@@katyishereSTARRY IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE SCORE E V E R.

[@Filmmakinglunatic]

Starry is just so beautiful it isn't fair

[@nickbeutler]

Damn the Twisted clip at the end gave me the wildest chills, like it just kept escalating

[@nervouswreck1899]

I was gonna say why isn't every Dylan Saunders Twisted song in here but his main realization in the song "Twisted" always gets me - to think that no matter what he does he'll always be seen as evil, and yet he accepts he still accepts his fate is so cruel and emotional. Not to mention the emotion in "If I Believed", I mean the raw emotion in "Science says you're dead and gone forever, reason says I'm talking to the air, but something in my heart, some secret hidden part, illogically insists that you are there, somewhere" will always get me. The same goes for "Happy Ending", the pure emotion in the line "And with my wife beside me, my failures will be absolved, the world will be a paradise with all its problems solved." Basically what I'm trying to say is this video made me want to watch Twisted again so thank you for this

[@rachelsinger1717]

The Power In Me is one of the most beautiful and underrated Starkid songs

[@tessawidenhofer]

I love how many of the underappreciated shows got featured in this- it’s so nice to see!

[@qstionblomens6138]

9:04 What guts me every time about that moment in VHSCC is past!Scrooge dismissing Belle’s question as hypothetical, and present!Scrooge following with such grief for the love he missed. Also, “Black Friday” kills me every time. Angela came through with that performance of Lex

[@ivysalen]

You dare to put the Coldest Goodbye Reprise on here and not put it first?! Bold move. Very bold.

[@SingingSealRiana]

Well IT slaps harder

[@Nkp_09]

[@jacejacobs4044]

I’m not a Star Wars fan but Ani is in my top three fav Starkid shows purely for how great the music is. Long Ago And Far Away always makes me so emotional, I’m so glad to see it get the praise it deserves!

[@Millerrobotics]

This feels like a group young Alex Brightman would join

[@TincanTophat9907]

I’m going to take a wild guess and say that you’re probably a hazbin fan, so if you could take one second and go back to the first clip for me real quick… that’s Saint Peter’s voice actor when he was in college.

[@Millerrobotics]

@@TincanTophat9907 Oh really? cool. I was actually a fan of Alex before Hazbin Hotel or helluva boss, I even went to see Beetlejuice the musical, but I am a HH fan lol

[@hawktalon7890]

I keep going back to this at least once every 3 days, myself.

[@galaxydragons6244]

Watching this has convinced me to watch more star kid productions aside from the hatchet field series, I already want to watch the spy one but if there’s any that I should definitely watch someone let me know!

[@galaxydragons6244]

I have already seen firebringer and road to Oregon. I kinda wanna watch the potter musical but I don’t really like Harry Potter so I’m not sure

[@gayerthanrainbows]

Definitely watch the Potter musicals. Not only are they hilarious cos they make fun of the source materials but it also provides context on how all the cast and company has evolved since 2009. Pretty much everything they've done is worth watching even if you're not interested in the concept.

[@TincanTophat9907]

Definitely watch Spies Are Forever! Also there isn’t a recording of the full thing, but Starry has some really great songs :) Edit: also Twisted

[@artisticmuff1n]

Watch Twisted right now!!!!! Genuinely a Broadway level performance and my absolute favorite Starkid show. Also starship is amazing, like one listen to Kick It Up a Notch will change your life trust me. The potter musicals are awesome and you definitely don’t need to like Harry Potter to enjoy them.

[@jademargileth1940]

You should, some of the humor won’t work but some of it is classic 2000s humor and works without the source material

[@bfpncsr3608]

Ruth in the thumbnail but still no love for the work of god that is just for once

[@foxglove-woods]

my favourite game to play in starkid compilation videos is to guess how far they stretch the definition of starkid haven't finished the video yet but bc starry is on here I'm assuming saf could sneak in at the end

[@alyssajohnson3772]

the absolute hold that brosenthal's voice has on me! was listening to this while scrolling on my phone and the second everything ends started my head like snapped up to give it my full attention

[@theamazingalakasam]

Let’s be honest, all of Starry goes hard

[@SingingSealRiana]

Oh fuck no, there is something with dylan and mariah? We are doomed, they are the hardest hitters!!

It’s called Starry, there’s no recording of the full show but you can find some live performances of the songs as well as the concept album on youtube.

This is honestly great to listen to after having the roughest schoolwork day I've had in a long time and yet again getting denied for an IEP. Reminds me that the English language can still be beautiful and not something I hate in the context of it existing in a music theory class I'm being forced to take! I love how almost a double digit number of these are Dylan, he gets the best lines.

[@SingingSealRiana]

Ok, but where is why dies it hurt to love you? Why am I in pain? The whole song not your seed is brutal as hell!!! Where is those voices "I see them too?" Where is sience says your dead and gone foever? . . . .without any context that one made me cry
