On top of just having a beautiful melody and flow to it, this song does an excellent job tapping into something no one really thinks about when it comes to Bugs’ character: how tiring it is to always be in the spotlight, to become a marquee without a true purpose as the years go on. Shame on WB for not giving this movie its due. It could have been something really special.
“When can I stop being the bunny that bugs me, and be the bunny that I wanna be.” God that is a good lyric 😢 Never thought I’d listen to a demo of a Looney Tunes song that made me both laugh and cry at the same time. We truly lose another amazing Looney Tunes project.
Man.....Eric Bauza, I know you would completely and entirely killed this. I'm not even that mad at this point, it's just so tiring and even sad that we see so many newer talent excited to work on legacies like Looney Tunes, only for it all to be shut down during production because...? Money for higher ups. Things for newer generations that could shape their childhood, memories, only to get canceled. Man.
I really hope someone leaks this movie and they're forced to release it. Like Scooby Doo movie that was cancelled and they leaked on web and Warner was forced to release it officially
For context: This audio was in the Animanicast episode 252 posted a year ago here on youtube, it's a sound recording from the screening they did of it at the end of the 2022 SDCC Looney Tunes panel, where Tom Kitt (composer for BBB) got to perform this song on piano. Earlier this week, the podcast was linked in a 4chan thread (that I had opened lol), along with some other stuff, and that is how this audio was uncovered! :) The panel had a no-recording rule for the previews, so no one noticed earlier.
I’ve loved the looney tunes since I was a little kid. They are the main reason I love animation as much as I do. I hate imagining a future without them, even though it seems more and more possible as each day goes on. Long Live Looney.

idk if LT will ever be as big as it once was but i don't think it will ever die tbh. the franchise may be treated like s**t by WB and they may not be in the mainstream animation space anymore but it still brings them millions every year in merch, WB wouldn't be dumb enough to completely erase them. and even if they were, LT is maybe the golden age cartoon with the most passionate fanbase out there. even if they remove everything from Max or whatever, the fans will always keep it alive. you can easily find all their shorts online
Even if this project was unfortunately canned, at least we have The Day the Earth Blew Up. I know I'm not alone when I say this, but we NEED to support that movie by any means necessary. See it in theaters, make fan art, and spread the word all over the internet! We need this movie to be a hit. Heck, it was already a massive hit with both critics and audiences at its world premiere at Annecy! That's already a great sign. Bottomline, we need to treasure what we have left. Sure Bye Bye Bunny and Coyote VS Acme may be gone forever, but we can't give up hope. Cause the moment we give up is the moment when we let corporate greed get the better of us. Creative products may be expensive gambles, but sometimes they're worth taking risks. That leads to more surprises and new innovative ways to entertain, and it's always ALWAYS important to try new things. Keep hope and creativity alive. Cause right now, We're the only ones who can.
We need to get this movie released. If Nimona got rescued, then there’s no doubt that we can bring this movie back as well as Coyote vs. Acme! Let us raise our voices!!! #ReleaseCoyotevsAcme #UncancelByeByeBunny
This was performed in sdcc in 2022 and the last we heard this was being rewritten and was safe since last year despite coyote vs acme . Rewritten to make it a full musical
I’m really hoping they bring this idea back to the light they have scrapped so many good movie ideas recently and this would just make it all up. Absolutely beautiful song, I know the premise of this movie would be so interesting, it would be a definite watch from me.
Peter Griffin: “Why are we not funding this?!” Seriously just the demo sounds amazing and it perfectly conveys the story Bugs being tired being I front of the spotlight and wanting a normal life away from being the face of the Looney Tunes. I’m praying this movie sees the light of and has its due on the big screen
This is just too beautiful I can’t even stop crying 🥲😭 I seriously want David Zaslav fired from Warner Bros. I miss old Cartoon Network, Old Boomerang, Old Cartoon Network websites, Flash Games from Cartoon Network, Looney Tunes, Tom & Jerry, Scooby-Doo and some Hanna-Barbara cartoons, I really want to see Bye bye Bunny, Coyote vs ACME and many Warner Bros movies that got canceled to be released and I want some movies and shows that were on HBOMAX to get released on DVD and Blu-ray.
Decided to clean up the lyrics a bit. I'm not sure of the "for no goodness" part, but I can't tell what's being sung there. ♫Must be nice Good for you That your only worldview worry, is which tulip you should chew We're the same, check the tail The only difference is that I bust mine for ticket sales Imagine if I joined you here Oh, for just one sunny bunny day, I'd toss my whole career Why do I gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a bunny no one bugs? Tired of running around being funny, singing songs and cutting rugs There's always a crowd that needs wowing There's people I gotta be pleasing I pray to take a staycation But it's always wabbit season, oh... Why do I gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a bunny no one bugs? Sick of doing my shtick for no goodness, waking up and thwarting thugs So why not just grin and bear it? Nibble on a carrot, or two? It's hard always asking "What's up, Doc?" when no one wonders "What's up, you?" But if I was a regular rabbit with my toes in the grass and my head in the clouds Fancy a snack, I'll just grab it No more pouting or bowing for loud crowds allowed All my friends, fellow bunnies My frenemies, hawks My stage, the whole meadow My critics, all rocks At night I'll snuggle in my burrow, A tree's my marquee "But Bugs, the show must go on!" Well, why can't it go on without me? Without me, oh.... Why do I gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a bunny no one bugs? After 81 years this rabbit's done, he's More than ready to unplug If only it were so easy If only I could be free When can I stop being the bunny that bugs me And be the bunny that I wanna be...♫
i believe the lyric after “sick of doing my shtick for no goodness” would be “waking up and THWARTING THUGS” - it fits the rhyme scheme better and i think I hear that specific consonant
The lyrics go really hard in this song. Imagine being put on a pedestal for so long that you slowly lose any sense of passion you had when you first started your career; and the fame you achieved eventually feels more like a prison because of the built-up expectations. I could even see this happening to icons like SpongeBob or Homer Simpson, who haven’t been around nearly as long as Bugs Bunny or Mickey Mouse, but have received even worse treatment from their companies without ever getting a break.
Real Lyrics: Must be nice Good for you That your only Wully Worry Is which tulip you should chew Were the same check the Tail! Only difference is that i Bust mine for Ticket Sales Imagine if i joined you here Oh For just one Sunny Bunny Day I tossed my whole career Why do i gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a Bunny no one Bugs Tired of running around being funny Singing songs and cutting rugs Theres always a crowd that needs wowing Theres people i gotta be pleasing I pray to take a staycation But its always Wabbit Season. Oh Why do i gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a Bunny no one Bugs Sick of doin my schick for no goodnicks Waking up and thwarting thugs! So why not just grin and bear it Nibble on a carrot... or two Its hard always asking What's Up Doc? when no one wonders Whats Up You. But if i was a regular rabbit With my toes in the grass and my head in the clouds. Fancy a snack ill just grab it No more Clowning or Bowing for loud crowds aloud All my friends fellow Bunnies! My frenemies Hawks My stage the whole Meddow My critics all Rocks At night I'll snuggle in my burrow A tree as my marquee But Bugs the show must go on Well why cant it go on without me Without Me! Oh Why do i gotta be Bugs Bunny and never just a Bunny no one Bugs After 81 Years this Rabbit's done he's More then ready to unplug. If only it were so easy. If only i could be free. When can i stop being the Bunny that Bugs me And be the Bunny that i wannna... Be.
HOLD ON, it’s been confirmed the film isn’t dead, it’s still going, but they laid off almost all of the people originally working on it, I hope they keep it a musical and that we get more amazing songs like this, but with Zaslav being Zaslav I don’t have high hopes
It was in the Animanicast episode 252 posted a year ago, it's an audio recording from the screening they did of it at the 2022 sdcc panel, where Tom Kitt (composer for BBB) got to perform this song on piano.
This movie was really gonna pull a Nightmare Before Christmas and is tired of doing the same old same old and what he’s been doing for years is getting old. From what I can remember, he was gonna give the spotlight to daffy and some mega fan was gonna kidnap daffy so Bugs would have to be his wacky cartoon self to get daffy back
Yep, though considering WB's stance on Looney Tunes - even before this movie entered limbo and tiptoed ever closer to complete cancellation - they very well could have had Bugs leave behind his stardom for good and give Daffy his time in the spotlight as a way of signing off on the franchise for the foreseeable future
*Wait a minute.* Why was _Bye Bye Bugs_ cancelled? What forced the people working on this project to say _Bye Bye_ to it? Hmm.. *Wait, lemme guess...* Perhaps, the reason was... *_more executive meddling at Warner Bros. Discovery??_* Dang. This could've been so good...
@@wh0rifying916 This channel is sometimes used for things like uploading pilots, but those are always taken down after a few days, there was a big batch of em last month, I didn’t have the time to watch them before they got taken down though.
If I was made the president of Warner Bros, of course my top priority would be the Looney Tunes! Everything else is fine, but when it comes to Looney Tunes, that's what'll matter most to me.
All because of this terrible "Space Jam : A New Legacy" which wasn`t suppossed to be made especially with Lebron James in it. And I wished to see how Bugs leads his calm life with his beloved Lola. Wonder when WB will rise up from this box office trash if they ever. A t least there gonna be animation with Daffy and Porky.
