The editing and pacing are awesome! I personally could never quite connect Gambino's persona with Troy as a character but this vid really shows the slightly geeky humor in his lyrics which actually fits with community so well!
I remember watching this for the first time when I was 13. I didnt know about Childish Gambino nor Community and this put me on to both. 12 years later, I aspire to be anywhere near as amazing an artist as I discovered Donald Glover to be, and I just finished my fourth rewatching of community. All thanks to this video. You changed my life for real. Thank you.
I like this. Love Community. Love this song. You found little clips to sync up with the song lyrics. I like how on "black and yellow" you showed Annie. She's very pretty. Great job. Bravo man
Sometimes when I feel like watching Community buy am feeling to lazy to put a dvd in and/or can't decide which episode to watch, I'll just come here and watch these Childish mash-ups...
People need to start giving Donald Glover his roses while he’s alive. Nobody ever did it as well, as big, and as artistically excellent as Glover did. Nobody in the history of Hollywood has been as talented as he is at everything he does, nor as successful. 💻🎤📀💿💎🎥🎹💵💴💶💷💰
this is pretty much the best youtube video i've seen. every. you pretty much paired each line in the song to a scene in community and did so perfectly. MAD RESPECT.
@NastyNaws We'll hopefully I can keep up the work for you and the rest of the 2,500+ people who've liked this. I'm glad I was able to make something you've all really enjoyed. So thanks for the awesome comment.
Donald Glover was one of Forbes' magazine's Top 30 Under 30 (I'm sorry but for the life of me I can't remember what number he was) and during his interview a short part of this video was playing when he was being asked about Community! Your video is getting so much awareness, and it's well deserved! Fantastic job on this!
I always see comments on videos saying "what the hell were 13 people thinking?!" I now know for a fact that 13 people who watched this video have NEVER seen Community or heard Childish Gambino. I rarely subscribe, but you, my friend, are something special.
anyone with half a brain can see the time and ingenuity you put into this video, and since im a community lover:) i definitely see what you did here and it's ..... a MASTERMIND. this is kind of a big deal. it deserves wayyyyy more views.
@mkp Honestly, finding that out was probably one of the more insane parts of this whole trip. The fact he supported the video instead of trying to get it removed, to me, shows his appreciation for the fans.
I was tricked into thinking it was freaks and geeks from the show also, but was surprised to see a well edited video by another fan of the greatest show ever. Keep it up :P
@WinterInJapan He was a guest on one episode. He played this totally crazy guy who wanted to be part of the study group soooo bad. He ends up becoming part of Owen Wilson's study group (he made a very small cameo in the last few seconds of the episode).
Read Joel's Mchale RT from Dan Harmon. This is an amazing video with the amazing Childish Gambino song. Outstading in everything. Thanks for making and sharing to the world. Community FTW!
In case you didn't know, show creator Dan Harmon talked about this video in an interview: "There's a video on RU-vid that is edited to the tune of one of Donald [Glover]'s 'Childish Gambino' songs called 'Freaks and Geeks.' Every syllable, every word of Donald's rap is reflected in some piece of imagery from 'Community' in multiple boxes that go to the beat, and it is spectacular. I don't think our entire editing staff would have time to put that together if we had to broadcast it....
