In this video you will watch my dad react to In The Aeroplane Over The Sea. An incredible album about a very tragic event. This album has been memed on to oblivion but it's still a favorite of many people due to it's obscure lyrics and unique instrumentation. There are plenty of fantastic songs on this album such as The King of Carrot Flowers Pt. 1, 2 and 3. Two Headed Boy and Ghost.
This is probably my favorite video from this series so far. Watch as my Dad Reacts to Neutral Milk Hotel. My Dad Reviews In The Aeroplane Over The Sea

I actually really like your dad's interpretation of the Two Headed Boy leading a double life as a German and a protector of a Jew. I know he was fucking around but I genuinely appreciate it

@squtnik Год назад

i also thought that was a really interesting interpretation

@sophiadotterweich1064 8 месяцев назад

I really like the interpretation as well but unfortunately it is historically inaccurate. Peter was one of the people hiding with Anne's family, along with his parents and one other Jewish man. Anne and Peter did have a romantic relationship, so my personal theory is that Jeff is implying that he wants Peter to love and care for Anne, possibly in the way that Jeff wishes he could have, which really checks out with the lyrics from Pt. 2.

@soupitywoop 2 года назад

EXACTLY. You can enjoy shit way more by simply paying no attention and enjoying it for what it is. I don’t even know any lyrics to most of my fave songs and it doesn’t bother me lmao

@chillepalmerz 2 года назад

I'm a big fan of lyrics but I agree. Lyrics should help the emotionality and enjoyment of the music not necessarily have a perfect rational meaning themselves. Even when they do make literal sense, it's more profound to me when I discover the meaning "accidentally" rather than from sitting there and analyzing the lyrics.

@williamhornabrook8081 2 года назад

A lot of the lyrics are super incomprehensible to me but others are very moving. Never boring though, which is a lot more than can be said of most music.

@maxwelllee6630 2 года назад

From what I’ve read, the album is about the conflict between Jeff’s close friend who killed himself and Anne Frank and her hope and will to endure despite her dire circumstances

Now that you mention it, I think I remember reading that somewhere too. It would definitely make sense

@kjbrandman Год назад

@@halflifefan1000 do you have any fonts about him talking about this? :D i didn't know he confirmed this album was about that

@nathanaelashnonmusic2615 Год назад

It's a combination of the metaphor that Anne frank is the innocence that's lost due to powerful yet meaningless forces, Jeff's suicidal father, his late fiancé that killed herself under the porch after she masturbated to the thought of Jeff one last time, leaving in her suicide note how she wanted to feel his semen over her dead body, and the fact that he had no job at the time.

@screw_tape 2 года назад

my dad did his normal thing where during family parties, he gathers the same like 3-4 people around his bluetooth speaker and we all take turns playing any song we want. it was my turn to pick a tune and i chose in the aeroplane over the sea. i told everyone the song title and band name and they were very confused. but they played the song and actually really enjoyed it. theres nothing more satisfying than showing something u have spent hours delving into and loving to someone and they actually enjoy it. great vid :)

@KyleReidMu 2 года назад

I love that you guys do that during family parties. My family and I used to do the same thing and we'd call it "music nights". Unfortunately when everyone moved out we stopped doing it. I'm glad you liked the video :)

@Userrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.r 2 года назад

I feel like many music reactors on yt try to force themselves to have only positive reactions to the albums they listen to in order to please the audience that just wants their favourite albums to be complemented. Your father however seems very genuine. He doesn't mind clashing the album or making fun of it. In a sense he has a very similar reaction to the one we all had when we first heard it. You can tell that he doesn't really understand the album but that's what is to be expected on a first reaction. Anyways, thank you for this great video, I'm surprised you have so little subscribers considering your video quality. I'm sure that if you continue like this you will grow fast.
