@@BackUp-nx2de Would it be bettet? To be blissful, arrogant, thinking the have perfected everything. Or to simply not care enough? Edit: You know what, my opinion change on this. There are some people who understand that it's alright being amateur at something, and you know what? good for them. You don't have to be blissful or arrogant or dumb to be happy.
I never understood why knowing that other people feel the same way, have the same problem, etc. is comforting to people. Unless your issue is that you don't feel the same as other people, what does it help?
It is a bit freeing to realize that no one has their journey entirely mapped out & are prepared for all the obstacles. The 2nd half of the realization is that you got over all of your most "difficult" obstacles in your journey thus far.
Love that literally everyone in the office is singing because everyone feels this way. We all think everyone is doing so much better than us but people probably look at us and think the same thing!
Not just the office. Everyone in the city from the construction workers to the street thugs to the doctors, and implicitly everyone in the world by the last shot.
A full minute of pure bliss. You’d swear this was made by a team of incredible animators, when it’s actually made by a single super duper amazing animator! Phenomenal job, Mr. Temmer!
this whole minute of dread and existentialism is so fucking fun to watch. dude, you better be proud of yourself, this is some top notch content. muppets level skill.
Strangely I find this song mildly uplifting in a way. Why? Because while they're all worried that they aren't cut out for their roles in life, the thing is...they *all* have those same anxieties. So in a way, their anxieties are unfounded, because *nobody* has it together.
I have it pretty together, got no job, play video games all day, supplied with the best snacks, always surrounded by family and am going to die next year!👍
Top notch!! My favorite part is the offset you give to each and everyone making it feel less lifeless! The colors and lighting are fantastic and it is incredibly smooth. Excellent tbh
As a kid. This is exactly how I saw adults. My views around this never changed. A lot of people are just labeling themselves as "adult" and are obsessed with appearing as such. Its hilarious for me to see older people struggle like that when they can obviously still be a grown up and enjoy their childhood part. You dont have to up and abandon aspects of your character because you need to "grow up". There are good and bad aspects of every growth phase. Cherish the ones that make you a better person and take them with you to the end.
So no joke, Kevin Temmer happens to be my brother, and I can tell you he is unlike any artist out there. He’s so incredibly talented and creative, but also one of the funniest, most down-to-Earth people in this world. Growing up with him and watching his artistic talent evolve, I can’t even begin to describe how cool it is watch his fanbase grow like this! Keep it up, big bro!
This feels like something out of an actual musical. It feels like the introduction song to the world and the conflicts of the story... Which is funny because this same creator previously made a parody of that exact cliche in song form. Both slap.
Kevin, for real; this feels like a potential musical. Seeing an animated puppet-style musical about the never ending struggle of life would be an absolute joy.
This is absolutely amazing!! love how everyone sings for someone else to live their life, but they're ALL on the same page so in reality, nobody other than themselves can do a better job like they claim they could. Everyone relates to each other more than they think they would!
0:46 I love that here you can see by this child's mother face that she's worried and a little scared about throwing her son to adult life but knows that she has to do it. So she didn't throw him instantly but actually throught about it for a few seconds. God how many emotions is this possible to express with muppet puppets is incredible indeed. Trully an amazing work.
I feel pain and wonder and that’s ok. It’s the genuine honesty, clear expression, and perfectly grand artistic creation that made this hit my heart strings with the same impact life itself strikes me with. It’s what art is created for. It’s therapeutic for everyone to see this and smile while they process real emotions. With the right awareness people see this and it brings out their positive nature in its truest form. Just look at the comments. This has made people stronger and healthier even if by a little bit of heartfelt conversations online or just the urge to share it forward. I struggle with a lot but I’m still here and I’m still me. We see his talent and we also see a healthy amount of our own thoughts and tendencies in Kevin. If he can tangle with these thoughts and turn them into purified color and empower his heart to make this then we can find our own strength through the same process but in our own unique way. I’m a better person because of this video even if it’s just by a little bit. Maybe my decisions will reflect that if I stay on track with my life. Thank you so much and I hope you have many fun moments of an energized and sustaining life.
Everyone talking about the great animation, but can we think about the MUSIC, he made this all by himself and created harmonies, beats, melodies all while simulating a massive crowd of people with overlapping voices and pitches, great stuff!
I love the irony of this group of an entire planets population singing about how worthless they see themselves compared to others even though everyone's going through that struggle
The fact that this perfectly encapsulates being a human being is immensely impressive. The idea that you think everyone is doing better than you, but with the irony that everyone else feels exactly the same way you do all the time. Bravo, sir.
@@Yelmerald They dont have the fancy computer programs of the intensive ray traced graphics, but those are definitely just the touch ups. This here is incredibly solid work.
Couple of nights ago I had sort of a mental breakdown from stress over how my life's been recently. To cut it short I finally got introduced to what adult life is truly like. Since that night I've been feeling really gloomy lately but this video made me feel a lot better. I felt like it was telling me that I'm not alone on this.
@@TheRealEnriqueWilliam did you just use an exclamation mark to seem threatening? there’s no point in pretending things will get better when one day we’ll all just be floating in an eternal void of nothingness and nothing we do has anything of value since eventually we’ll be forgotten since at the end of the day we’re all nobodys.
If you're living a 9-5 dead end job and resonate with this song... Just know it's not your fault, probably. Being an adult is hard sometimes but even though the animation portrays not being good at something, clearly it's an amazing display of 3D models, textures, lighting and fluid animation. Meaning even though you're hard on yourself, you might be really good at something, that someone else can respect.
This looks, sounds, and is written like a gag straight out of The Amazing World of Gumball. Imagine an episode where Rocky sees a therapist to figure out why he isn't as financially stable as his dad despite being a fully grown adult, and we see this song play in his head.
How can you make something so full of life yet make everything it in look dead inside? That is a balance that is hard to perfect, and you nailed it on the top of the head, middle of the body, and everything hurts. INCREDIBLE! Well-worth the wait!
just like what's the matter martha, this song could not have come at a more opportune time in my life. thank you kevin! i'm a huge fan and am happy to see this beautiful project finally released.
Kevin Temmer is a really fun lyricist. I really like the rhythm in some of his lines, like: "I've had years to perfect the profession of being alive" and "thats a complicated question that dissects the burden of capitalism the flaws in our system society's prison but what can you do about it ?" from q&a song. Love this stuff, pls make more jamming songs
I really like how he takes thoughts and emotions that are dark or even depressing and turns into quirky animated musical shorts, it's not just an artists way of not expressing how he feels, but showing how we're not alone how everyone feels
Incredible, everything was perfect. The hype paid off perfectly. The animation, the song, the sound quality, amazing. I'm so glad such talent is being put to great use!
this was absolutely worth the wait, I love the jumpy animation and small attention to details when the characters do something. Like that little "boing" when they jump at 0:24
Literally the kind of song that plays in my head when my depression spikes, yet this is also the song that helps me smile through it because it’s so damn catchy.
I think the most striking thing about this song is that it's sung entirely in chorus despite the fact that everybody seems to think they're struggling alone
The fact it ends with "why do I exist?" implying there's no answer is the extra amazing touch to this. Everyone else in the comments has said it better but this is seriously insanely good. I really can't wait to see what you make next!
i haven't felt that way since I had my spiritual awakening after listening to near death experiences talk about what life is actually about. I used to though so there is hope to find nothing but excitement even in a world with chaos.
How does he manage to just, make something and make it have so much life and character? Create worlds with such simple designs yet so complex. You sir are inspiring.
Lyrics: Somebody else start living my life They’d do a better job Somebody helm my living for I’ve Been reckless and a slob I’ve had years to perfect the profession of being alive (woah) But I’m steering in every direction can someone else drive? (woah!) I’ve had time to assess and I’m not quite the best for this role Is it fine to confess I’m not outright impressed with my soul? So teach me how to be a human being! I’ve had every chance to grow Every chance to know That I’m not good x3 At this at all *baby vocalizing* yeah sing it (Yeah x6) Somebody else start living my life They’d do a better job Somebody helm my living for I’ve Been reckless and a slob It take all of my effort to stay on the path and persist But with what I’ve got left I’ve been meaning to ask Why do I exist? (Amazing song yet again! Thank you for blessing us with your epic content)
As fun as existential crises are, I feel like I've thought about it so long that I'm comfortable with who and what I am. No, I'm not my best me yet, and whether I'm comfortable imagining death changes on a day to day basis... but neither of those things are bad. Best wishes to everyone out there! And to the creator of this: absolutely fantastic music video.
Kevin, you really never disappoint. I’d always listen to your songs while in lockdown and it never failed to motivate me to do my online schoolwork. You truly are a great man and you’re the reason my grades aren’t slipping. Thanks man, you really mean the world to me.
You could show to people to teach them about timing. So much flow between the characters and the music. The workers The cars pulling up, the mobsters, to the earth zoom out. Everything was planned and it shows. Incredible work dude you're an inspiration and a half, well done!
I love how you took the idea of a mid life crisis and turned it into a musical. Also to anyone going through this just know you are not alone going through this and that God loves ^w^
Knowing that some else pissed on their toilet seat, doesn't make me feel better about the fact I pissed on the toilet seat. Other people having a tough time in their life doesn't make my life better.

Instant classic! A good representation of the human experience and how being an adult is just confusion and a general sense that one's walking towards a precipice of one's own making.
I've found myself watching this on loop. It looks as wonderful, sounds as good as it looks, and the message hits upon a long-held feeling I've been unable to articulate. Update: Apparently this is a daily watch now.
I appreciate the fact this is being sung by just about everyone which implies that not only does everyone feel this but nobody would be doing much better if they were in control of your life
I adore everything about this but the harmony on "human being" is absolutely STUNNING. This is all so amazing and I still almost cant believe you made it entirely alone. Excellent job my man
I think the truly depressing part of this is that just about everyone we see is singing. Meaning there isn’t anyone to live their life but themselves. Either I’m looking to far into this or that’s really good attention to detail!
There's something about Muppet-esque puppets giving me hard life lessons that's just so perfect. Awesome work!! "life may be scary... but at least it's temporary!"
It's a game of musical chairs, where if you don't find a chair everyone points and laughs. They say things like, "just get a chair, everyone else has one!", but there are not enough chairs for everyone. It is this way because there are individuals hoarding chairs.
Gorramn. You've been getting so, so, SO good at this! The music is well written, the animation looks so good, I'd gladly pay to see a whole film or show in this style!
