I like how the scrunchie is meant to be like a crown or a source of power like the infinity gauntlet and how it is a metaphor for being strong and powerful
I agree! It's like at the end when Veronica takes the scrunchie too. And in the movie H. Chandler says I'm always red when H. Duke tries to take the red ball, although I don't think this line is in the musical. It represents power really well.
@@galexandra exactly, just like the Heather's colours, theres always a meaning to something. With the scrunchie, at the end of the movie/musical, it has finished its purpose, it dosent belong to a heather no more, showing that the Heather's power has been destroyed.
I love that Heather Duke was given a song in this rendition of Heathers. I always thought that there was more to her and this song gives people a glimpse of what we're missing.
yeah, it shows that she was suffering from Chandler's bullying and now she's so happy she's free from it (maybe even too happy... poor MacNamara). (Unpopular opinion warning-I like Heather Duke and I don't think she's a bad person
@@meadw3875 Exactly. I really appreciate this song, because it gives more insight into why Duke became a bully. A lot of bullies were originally victims themselves, and started behaving the way they do because they're afraid of being hurt again. While this is definitely a power trip anthem for Duke, it also shows that she's doing this due to a fear of being bullied.
I love how extra Heather Duke is in this song, like she's trying to prove to herself and everyone else that she's the new Mythic Bitch. She's coming in heavy handed with the metaphors, literally just called the two girls left in her own clique busted, made up the sword fight rumor like girl Heather C didn't have to do all of this
@@galexandra I'm finally warming up to You're Welcome, although I think it justifies JD's killing of Kurt & Ram, downplaying his psychopath tendencies.
But Kurt and Ram are meant to be creepy rapists and not goofy dummies like Blue characterized them as. The point was never that J.D.'s actions weren't justifiable. The point is that justice is not his to deliver and that they might yet have changed. Veronica is the heroine because she's the one who realizes she's going down a dark path and forces herself to change for the better. All of this is my own analysis and opinion though.
Reasons why this is better than Blue Reprise: #1: It shows people who have only listened to the soundtrack Heather Duke's actual arc instead of just going from bulimia to pushing McNamara to the brink of suicide #2: It does that while also doing Blue Reprise's job of showing that VERONICA BLEW(n't) TWOOOOOOOOOOOOO, so that isn't left out either (maybe being added in for some people considering these songs are usually accessed through the official cast recordings and, to my knowledge at least, Blue Reprise doesn't have a recording #3: It makes the reprise part feel a lot fresher - I love Blue as much as anyone, but listening to Blue and then immediately cutting back to Blue Reprise makes it kinda tiring, while Big Fun is far enough out of reach to feel like a nice comeback #4: It's just a bop, I don't really know how to say it but it is
Tobie Denielle Nah Gretchen is passive which is why she got What’s Wrong With Me, even after Regina was out of the way Gretchen didn’t try to take her spot. Heather Duke almost immediately went after Heather Chandlers position (in the musical and the movie) because she was tired of being forced to be the pushover submissive sidekick and she didn’t want to give Heather M. or Veronica the chance to slide into that spot and do the same. This song is perfect for Heather Duke... are y’all forgetting the whole Shine A Light (reprise) that was in both... being bitchy is 100% in the cards for her
People don’t realise when Kurt and Ram start popping off in this song - this was why JD shot them. Because in the movie after the Cow pasture scene they actually make a rumour up about Veronica fucking them in the field.
west end may not be my cup of tea, but never shut up again is SO GOODDDDD!! out of every heathers song ever, (aka west end and original ofc broadway recording) it’s on my top 3 and i cant stop singing it lmao
I find this wery useful, we didnt really get alot of heather duke and that song is a bit messy but they tried their best and the words go wery well! So go blind from the haters cus i like it
I enjoy this song and I love the idea of Duke getting a song during this moment but? I don't really feel like this fits in with the style of the original songs? Not sure how to feel.
ok not related but i spent a minute at 'thats when things went south' (or something-) and i couldn't remember what north was me: *listening to this song* song: 'And that's when things went South' me: wait.. *1 minute later* me: south.. west.. east.. narwals eat weatabix.. me: ... yes narwals definetely starts with a s.. aight now.. narwals... *5 minutes later* me: does it mean.. Norwegian? uhh no ofc not lol... me: UNLESS-- *more than 30 minutes later* me: NORTH me: ITS NORTH my family: whatthefuc---
Well "Big sis is watching you" kinda sounds better. Isn't it reference to 1986 where slogan of dictation was "Big Bro is watching you", so she's making her own dictation
