Just a small thing about Stevie Wonder’s last line: “Not even your tiara’s coming back from this.” It’s a reference to a dumb fact that Wonder Woman can use her Tiara as boomerang. Incredibly dumb but I found it funny that ERB included that

I have always found this a fun battle but after seeing this breakdown I realize that my knowledge about Wonder Woman was so negligible that I have been missing almost everything referencing her. Thanks We Skeem!

[@RandomPerson-fg1jf]

"If you didn't already know that bats aren't blind then congratulations, now you do." Quotes like this are why I love this channel.

[@thegrayjedi974]

I still feel there were many more layers to the "DC is a whole step down" bar. DC Comics being a step down from Marvel, D being a whole step down from C, DC voltage is stepped down from AC voltage, and Washington DC is full of politicians. Which is a step down from everything.

I read somewhere that Stevie Wonder explained in an interview that he felt someone walk past him and he heard them stumble so he reached out to grab them, but they had knocked over the mic and it landed on his arm by accident.

[@tgirard1995]

“My name is princess Diana but this lady don’t die.” I agree with your breakdown but I also thought that her name has “Die” in it so that is why she said she doesn’t die.

Legally blind is not neccessary totally blind. My "blind" neighbor knew it was me at the door after turning towards it.

[@mythmage8231]

Maybe they could just smell you. Everyone has a distinct scent, and blind people have heightened senses due to not using the brainpower on sight, I think they might be totally blind.

When you take away a sense the others get better 🤷‍♂️

Blindsight is legally blind but he can still somewhat see. It basically feels like he's looking through straws.

[@flyingblind5677]

You guys don’t know anything about blind people and it shows haha, but not many people do. I’ve been both legally blind and blind. In comparison, when I was legally blind I could play sports and video games, now I actually can’t see anything, just like Stevie wonder. Yeah that whole smelling someone is total BS, although it is possible if someone has a strong cologne or perfume, but your neighbor probably could just see you. Hope this helps it make more sense

The killing blow is the invisible airplane. It's just amazing, wins the whole thing. That said this is one of the best ERBoH and I dont know how anyone doesn't see it. This is up there with Vader vs Hitler.

That DC line was also punctuated by the melody. When he sang "higher ground" the notes were getting higher, when he sang "whole step down" the notes were stepping down.

Wait... people don't like this battle? WW opening verse is fantastic. T-Pains DC and "plots so thin" bars are FILTHY.

[@toxicshroom3686]

I love how Stevie literally is blind 95% of the video and then suddenly he does little things like turns and stands that make you question his blindness. Btw the Tiara bar is because she used to throw her Tiara like a Boomerang but the thing is that it F-ing bumped on everything before going back , it was wacky and impossible.

You can easily turn your head in the direction of the voice. Doubly so if you are blind and therefore relying much more on your other senses than a normal person, including hearing.

People say that this is a weaker battle? Those people are nuts! Even without getting all the references to Stevie Wonder's music, I considered this battle one of their best.

I think the music also interestingly gets higher when he's saying he's from a higher ground, but then the music gets lower as he says DC is a step down...

[@TankInATree]

One of the battles that I simply appreciate because of the attention to detail put into the characters. It requires deep knowledge about both characters to really appreciate, but even on the surface level, the production is impressive. I don't know shit about Stevie Wonder except I have heard some of his songs, and this battle captured me because of how they did it with the tone and T-Pain's brilliant acting.

[@xXTheKingEmothXx]

Also for people that don't know and wanted to, Sappho was an Ancient Greek writer from the island of Lesbos, who talked often of her female on female intimacies, hence why the word 'Lesbian' came to be. Another funny thing, homophobic historians always referred to it as a deep friendship, which gave rise to the subreddit r/sapphoandherfriends, which makes fun of people mistaking gay relationships for friendships.

[@ghostflame9211]

i agree completely. though imo its still unbalanced towards stevie wonder. not nearly as blatant as thanos and oppenheimer, and ive always appreciated wonder woman's bars, but its still one sided. that being said, i always go back to this bar just for t pain alone and because the beat they chose for this one is amazing. interestingly, i saw TMG channel's ERB reactions before skeem's and he actually did catch the DC bar. one of the few reaction channels that did. however in his video, he treats it like it didnt matter because stevie wonder is the clear cut winner lol.

I’m surprised he didn’t point out the tiara bar at the end. Apparently Wonder Woman’s tiara is a boomerang, so it was a double diss. You can actually see this in one of the visuals. She takes off her tiara, tosses it, catches it and puts it back on before grabbing the falling mic.
