wow. this video now has over 300,000 views and I just reached 1,000 subscribers... thank you SO much! when I posted this video I had 15 subscribers and I never expected something like this to happen. my hope is to keep posting twenty one pilots related content, including edited songs and maybe theory videos down the road! thank you again for the support, and if you have any requests please don’t hesitate to let me know!
On the whole song i manage to recolect every word i heard and as result i got these: 0:34 We are banditos 0:49 Fire 0:51 Nico and The Niners 1:16 Fire 1:18 Nico and The Niners 1:23 We don't belong here 1:30 Fire 1:32 Nico and The Niners 3:28 If we can run we can 3:51 We are banditos 3:55 You will leave Dema and head true east 4:00 We denounce vialism
I actually think it is nihilism, it makes more sense in respect of the meanings of their past songs. Nihilism is basically the theory that all religious efforts are foolish, and the preformed idea of a high power is a luticrous fantasy to give life meaning. This leads to the conclusion of this theory to be that life is simply meaningless. We know the it says they renounce/denounce this. So, going off of this, a 'true east' could represent the discovery and recognition of a high power bringing meaning to life.
Them: "I'm one of the biggest fans, I can do the TØP handshake!" You: "Boi, I am a bigger fan than you, as I can do the TØP handshake backwards!" Them: "What's the fun in that?" Me: "What's not the fun?" You: "Who are you?" Me: **Vanishes**
You can actually add this to your game and have it play on the radio if you want, and you don’t even have to have a mod. Just download it as a .mp3 file and put it in one of the specific station folders in the Custom Music folder in documents ->EA ->The Sims 4 -> Custom Music.
[Bulletprøøf Løneliness//] I noticed that! The handshake is almost the same too, which is pretty cool. Thank you for watching and commenting, I appreciate it!!
This is INSANE. You can hear how Tyler places small snippets of backup vocals that are reversed in between snippets of normal vocals. And how the vocals are basically mirrored around the handshake part... I’m constantly amazed by Tyler’s creativity
DeadGhostGuy *cough* I got that feeling too. Not just words, but the rap scene especially. It almost felt strange in the original... backward felt more fluid.
Yeah, Josh is like "Ok dude, it was cool playing drums again with you, but that was it, we're getting the heck outta here, but you'll have to stay. One last handshake before sayin goodbye? :'( "
Does anybody else hear something along the lines " you can run when I'm center clock". I just realized now that if you go to 1:03 where he says center clock he looks at his wrist like a watch or what about the clock at the cabinet with all the yellow flowers. And if you go to 1:28 and listen in the background you can hear joshes pitched up and actual voice.
This Is All Of What Can Be Heard: 0:32 We are Banditos 0:42 So high 0:46 So high 0:48 Fire 0:50 Nico and the niners 1:23 We don't belong 1:30 Fire 1:31 Nico and the niners 2:39 (this one is just funny) Fueled By Ramen 3:50 We are Banditos 3:55 You will leave Dema and head true east 4:00 (this one other people hear but i don't) Renounce Vialism/We Denounce Vialism Lmk if you hear something else
I was really suprized things like the background audio weren't altered. Like the tape and handshake and music sounded no different, but of course the words were.
I tried recreating the scenes I could. I walked backwards on the stairs and hit my head. I tried doing the handshake, I fell down. I tried lighting an orb, but burned my hand (stove)
1:23 uh tyler...you okay? I really enjoy how they put the backwards bits in to this song! And I cant wait to hear the full album in October and at their concert!!
Latisha Vivian same here!! the production is very good on all of these songs we’ve heard so far. you can really tell how much work they’ve put into this new album. I can’t wait!
This is fucking cool. if you start thinking about this they seem genius. they must've known we all would play the song reversed and analyse it.. esp the clique. They must've had so much fun making this, with all the reversed and non-reversed background tracks. Genius. Awesome. Love them
It's like he and Josh went on a journey together and then they just parted ways and that handshake and singing bit was just then saying goodbye how could you
I mean if you saw jumpsuit it looks like "nico" i think, took Tyler at the end of the video and josh stares from the hill i guess this video is a rescue mission to get tyler back
In the normal music video before he raps I hear the incomprehensible voice say hurry off. In this one I ALSO hear the incomprehensible voice say hurry off again! I`m officially going crazy.
talking about mind controll, as clacy's letter says.... maybe's he's singing about being taken away from josh's group.... maybe ITS the 3rd part of the story.....
I don't know if anyone has pointed this out but the story could work in reverse as well like forward it seems like they're saving Tyler backwards it looks like they're putting him in their as like a man inside... Twenty One Pilots what are you planning cause whatever it is looks epic as all heck.
Fun fact ! In the original version of the song they have a part we're they're playing the music in reverse, so in this reversed version that part sounds like the words are being spoken normally.
Starting around 1:23 reminded me of car radio when the verse says “we’re all battling fear, oh dear, I don’t know if we know why we’re here” Just me? Okay..
Theawesomeguy2202 ok so in the actual video it's reversed at the beginning so if the whole song is reversed then at the end of this video it says it Does that make sense If you don't hear it then put up the volume because I heard it
Ro Fanesi in the video the Bishops create lights with vials •Tyler and Josh have been to include Christianity within their songs (as a Christian I pick things up) •GOD is often described as a Light •The Bishops don't want the people of DEMA to follow the Real Light (GOD) out of DEMA's walls, so they practice Vialism and create artificial light-- an artificial freedom •without GOD people often feel an emptiness, the Bishops don't want the people of DEMA to come to a realization of this emptiness and follow to banditos to freedom of Religion, so the Bishops create an artificial path to fill the emptiness, but really it's leading them deeper into the darkness that is DEMA. •so in short vialism is creating an artificial path of light to lead people deeper into the dark of DEMA
1:26 in the original during this part u kind of hear the beat that you are hearing throughout the whole song because they reversed that part for the original
I can actually see the reversed version of this song being put at the end of the album to declare that they’re being put back into the tower. Like they escaped then they returned, whether it be because of Nico, one of the nine bishops recapturing them or from the ignorant beauty of darkness, and the craving Tyler depicts he has for it. I guess we have to wait until October to find out. :/
1:22 and than half the speed you can hear the message:we dont belong and we''re freaking both the invader when i fought ooth hereup in the m ooth than something in the middle than tyler looks at the camera
i find it interesting how many in many instances you can still hear the deep background voice singing "so high...fire, nico and the niners" in the same way the song sounds normally
oh my gosh guys thank you so so much this is insane... when I posted this I had 15 subscribers. I now have 340 whaaat?!? And almost 100k views?!!? This is insane!! I never thought this would blow up so much. Thank you. This is why the clique is awesome. Be ready for some more videos. ||-//
When i listened to the song when it just came out, I said to my brother; i'm sure they're putting some things in backwards, there were parts of the song forwards that sounded reversed, this confirms it, thanks for this! Its really cool!
I think that at the end instead of it being “we denounce vialism” it’s actually “renounce vialism” , because i found source that vialism means “self-determining and self-evolving” and DEMA doesn’t want that, so they say to renounce (neglect, leave behind) vialism
@@bandaidblue9530 "vialism" is the religion believed by the bishops and the people of dema, and this religion basically states that the end goal of life is to die specifically by suicide. also, when i look up "we _renounce_ vialism" rather than "we denounce vialism", i only get results for the phrase including the word "denounce". furthermore, to "denounce" something means to "publicly declare it wrong or evil", so vialism is being declared wrong by whoever is speaking, and i believe it's josh saying that line as leader of the banditos.
0:34 i didnt even realize that tyler says "we are banditos" I didnt pay attention to it cause i thought it just says "so keep Ned by you" I tried it and recorded myself saying both phrases and rewinded it and i must say i was surprised and confused to say the least xD
Honestly I am going to stop trying to pick this stuff apart. Tyler is making a masterpiece and we only have two parts of it. It is obviously telling a story, but I don't think the story is what we think it is. When you watch this video normally you see one side of the story. When you watch it in reverse it is another. It's so hard to tell where they are going and what will happen next. So I for one will be sitting it out and waiting for the next pieces. Waiting for the album. And then I will try to decipher it. But great theories everyone.
Emma Davis he’s packing those, as a way of say he’s leaving the blurryface era behind. Even then he leaves the bag with the kids at the end to fulfill their own legacy
I just wanna say did anyone else notice that josh brings 8 people with him. Josh being the ninth. Also we see blurry face and the bishops of DEMA but hear me out when I say this. If Tyler is flying from a fire, from Nico and the Niners. The bishops don’t have fire..
Meaning from genius. "The song begins with a toned down and reversed version of Josh’s voice. When played forwards, the track can be heard as, "We denounce Vialism You will leave Dema and head true east We are banditos" The fact the audio is reversed may be a way to suggest this message is supposed to be hidden, supposedly from the bishops who trap people in the fictional city of Dema. The bishops invented a religion called Vialism to keep the inhabitants of Dema from feeling hope and seeking help. The “banditos” are a group of individuals rescuing people trapped in Dema." For those who didn't know.
WOW DUDE HOLY SHIT, I thought just reversing the clearly reversed lyrics in the original song would reveal some more about the story. BUT reversing the whole video!!! And most important the parts at the beginning, middle, and end of the video, which happens to be when there are reversed lyrics in the original song.
Hey guys! Thank you so much for the continued support on this video. It’s been awesome to interact with you all!! I’ve been trying to post my next NatN video, however I’m having copyright difficulties. I’m currently working to resolve them and get the video posted. Stay tuned!
The part where Tyler raps and then the part where he's packing make the most sense backwards! Please share this and help it get some more attention!! My twitter is @odetoslcwtown and Sarah (she also created this theory!) 's twitter is @trucetozier !!! EDIT / UPDATE: holy cow this did way better than I expected. thank you so much for all of your theories and ideas!!! I'm currently in the process of posting Jumpsuit in reverse; be sure to check it out when you have a chance! It's an interesting watch for sure!
Yes, because the instrumental is very clearly being played backwards in that part of the original song... I don't know why you needed this video to figure it out
I also realized, that the Banner "Song name - from the full length album Trench" is at the end of the music videos for levitate and jumpsuit, but in nico and the niners, it's at the beginning. Probably also hinting at that it should be reversed so that it's at the end again too.
Tyler: raps absolute nonsense Me: yeeEEESSSSS Tyler: does the handshake and leaves josh Me again: nnoOooOOOOO Tyler: unpacks the blurryface era Me: wAIT STOP U JUST LEFT THAT Tyler: grabs flower and looks at vulture Me: honey what r u doing
0:33 "WE ARE BANDITOS (my favorite part) 0:37 I freaking knew this scene was reversed in original. I watched it over and over and over again and it was impossible for them to close the door that way and I had a feeling they opened it and reversed it in music video! 1:29 I think this whole scene is also reversed in original version xD 3:51 you all know this part xD
Sopoxelf yes I agree!! Both of those scenes looked really weird to me normally. Especially the rapping one, it just flows a lot better when it’s backwards.
Sopoxelf in 0:33 you are absolute right... In 0:37 the fire of torch confimed your observation.... In 1:29 the fire of torch denied this, sorry... But stay very interesting In 3:51 has no doubt
I like the scene at the end where Tyler picks the flower from the drawer and looks out the window. It's like he knows he's trapped for a bit but he knows there's Hope and he imagines the world outside of Dema.
