the living tombstone - lazy 

If one more minute passed, I was sure they would become LEGO pieces

TLT: So this song is about being lazy, i want the visuals to match the song like, storyboards appearing, and backgrounds disappearing and stuff. so less to animate. Animator: Oh HELL YEAH!

It hurts me so bad seeing how underrated this is

At 2:13 the audio quality even gets lazier. That's truly effort that I'm not seeing pointed out. By this I mean it loses a lot of clarity filters and has a lot of background white noise.

Animators: How much time do we have to finish the video? TLT: 10 Animators: weeks? TLT: 9, 8, 7

its like that episode of gumball where they are slowly running out of budget until everything disappears

This is such a freaking mood.. This entire song hits too hard. Thank you for making this

identifying with this is even sadder than identifying with an average sad-romantic song

Legit thought this was an animation collab for the entire video

yes yes yes yes yes

Lyrics: Lights out, eyes closed, day gone, stay home The clock's running out, although I should be rushing I can't follow through, time has flew, and I'm doing nothing TV, maybe, feel so lazy I can't motivate from the weight that I'm under I'm so overwhelmed, so just go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all, the promises that I was making to you Week lost, self-blame, slack off, play games With nothing to show but my procrastinating I sit on my couch and waste time, I should be creating Checked out, cold streak, check-in next week I'm sick of the same little lies to get over I'm tired of the game, so just go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb So help me I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy Losing touch and shutting down until I'm lost It was supposed to be so effortless A brand new challenger, but nonetheless I thought that I was ready, so I told him yes They needed record speed, I acquiesced It was easy for a while Then I let the work compile For another day Then another off-day Then it was a more-often-than-not day I was screwed, underwater I was like a lamb to the slaughter I used to think that I was worthy It's been a long time since "No Mercy" So I'm done Go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all the promises that I was making to you I'm losing the friends I thought I knew I've no longer got a thing to do Becoming so lazy They blame me 'Cause they see That maybe I'll never deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all the promises that I made you Lost it all They call me, and I cannot answer the question So I stall, I can't bear to listen Shut them out, I start to doubt I had any promise, so I give up And drift gently to sleep

The amount I relate to this song is unreal. Like the main reason I haven’t stopped listening to it over the years is because of how much I relate to it. It mirrors my struggle with procrastination and like procrastinating to the point where I just give up on myself and don’t do it almost exactly lol. Even though I think this song is more so coming from a depression pov on procrastination I still can relate to it even though I don’t suffer from depression

Lyrics: Lights out, eyes close, day gone, stay home. The clock's running out even tho i should be rushing blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

Zero-one is the funniest character in the video, he was like, yeah, we are doing this great friends, continue while i give You power whith My dance

First time watching this I started crying because 1 - song hit close home as a person that hits intense depressive crashes which makes me lose motivation to do any projects I'm working on 2 - As an animator, the music video hit close home also, because there's been multiple times where I start a project and I either lose motivation to finish it or something happens and I lose majority to all of my progress

I like how this would take more time than actual animation.

other tombstonas: *actually playing cool musics* zero one: 〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜

I'm an animator and this is a love letter to the industry

The living tombstone is a literary and artistic genius, the way the animations slowly degrade and the lyrics are just, perfection. This really deserves a lot more views, sad youtube prefers poromoting short garbage videos to compete with tiktok over anything with artistic value.

I dont understand why this is still not the best living tombstone song. I love how the title is “lazy” with a lower “l”, they got inspiration to other musicians like “flea” for example from rhcp. They also made a “ lazy animation” but it looks so good. What a MASTERPIECE!?!?

the "your free trial has ended" is such a MOOD

So are we not going talk about how berd just randomly animated the middle.

I like how this is called lazy, but in actuality I can tell this took a lot of fucking effort. This is an incredible song with thought put into the unfinished art styles, with details like... I'm not gonna describe the moments because, I'm lazy, but I will provide clear examples where there is no way they weren't creative choices 0:11 Every background like this that is used in the video after this 0:17 The timed switch between the finished frame and the one with no background 0:48 Decision to isolate lead singer 0:54 The photoshop transform/select box here 0:57 Every single glitch effect in this video like this one 1:17 The free trial is so relatable for me lmao, also something that has to be deliberately added 1:21 The fact they did reference footage and images shows they aren't lazy, and that they care about quality 1:38 While the collab could be an argument for it being lazy, but they fact that they found a RU-vid gem that is known for his charming simplistic content and comedy lends itself to this theme. 2:40 In addition to the intentional media offline screen, contrary to popular belief those paper puppets are actually pretty time consuming to make, and requires a fair amount of effort to make both a working puppet, as well as color them in and have them dance and shit. 2:57 Now I'm not sure if there is a plugin that does this or something, but the middle finger error messages are super funny and potentially demonstrates further effort and care they put into this video. This song and video are extremely underrated. The song is both extremely relatable to me and sad, while the video is incredibly amusing and entertaining. I rest my case. I love you TLT

Lyrics (Yes I got these from google-): Lights out, eyes closed, day gone, stay home The clock's running out, although I should be rushing I can't follow through, time has flew, and I'm doing nothing TV, maybe, feel so lazy I can't motivate from the weight that I'm under I'm so overwhelmed, so just go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all, the promises that I was making to you Week lost, self-blame, slack off, play games With nothing to show but my procrastinating I sit on my couch and waste time, I should be creating Checked out, cold streak, check-in next week I'm sick of the same little lies to get over I'm tired of the game, so just go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb So help me I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy, I'm lazy I'm lazy, I'm lazy Losing touch and shutting down until I'm lost It was supposed to be so effortless A brand new challenger, but nonetheless I thought that I was ready, so I told him yes They needed record speed, I acquiesced It was easy for a while Then I let the work compile For another day Then another off-day Then it was a more-often-than-not day I was screwed, underwater I was like a lamb to the slaughter I used to think that I was worthy It's been a long time since "No Mercy" So I'm done Go ahead and take it, it's yours I'm losing the will I had to move I've no longer got a thing to prove Becoming so lazy It's crazy That they see A way me and you can deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all the promises that I was making to you I'm losing the friends I thought I knew I've no longer got a thing to do Becoming so lazy They blame me 'Cause they see That maybe I'll never deliver something new I'm losing the hours in the gloom Confined in my bed, it's like a tomb If I do not wake up and shape up I'll break all the promises that I made you Lost it all They call me, and I cannot answer the question So I stall, I can't bear to listen Shut them out, I start to doubt I had any promise, so I give up And drift gently to sleep

the funny thing is, this probably took more effort to make then a normal animated video for him, also ngl the sketch part was fucking awesome.

For being a lazy song this was so prepared and full of details

Whether intentional or not this is a beautiful representation of ADHD struggles

imagine this fully animated it would look sick

Rust: sings Doc: plays drums Armstrong: plays bass Tesla: plays guitar Zero_One: d a n c e

my brain went "oh its a wip they'll finish it later" then I realized the joke

I found this gem while I was procrastinating on my midterms. This is my favourite song now

2:00 the “I was screwed underwater” part sounds so satisfying as I love it!❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love how everyone have their own roles and zero_one just dances around the stage

a genuinely hilarious video COMBINED with a super kickass song to accompany... this is gold lmao. im so happy to see every song you guys release is a banger now

I love how uncanny the proportions look, especially the mouths. really feels like the first draft of a music video.

i like how when the error occurs at the end and the project is lost the error messages go from a warning sign to a straight up middle finger

Lyrics: Nah, sorry guys. I'm too lazy.

A song about Content creator Burnout, Motivation Loss, and self doubt? *This hits the mark pretty well*

Love seeing the animation production process varying states of completion here! It's also a good example of how we don't always work on shots in a linear way. Blew my students' minds when they realized what shots were in what stages of completion didn't always have to do with the shots' chronological order.

Can we acknowledge that in the part animated by berd he says “it’s been a long time since no mercy” Whitch is a reference to the overwatch music he did that blew up like hell

I hope this appears in my recommendations 5 years later

Tombsonas: Playing Instruments, Singing Zero_one: [ V I B E ]

I love the irony behind how much effort it must've taken for this to look "lazy"

damn, this might be the best music vid ive ever seen, heck, the animation glitches are timed to the beat drops, thats effort!

The other Tombsonas: Actually playing instruments and singing Zero_One: Chacha real smooth

Zero_One is constantly changing from a 12 year old to a 21 year old

This album is always there for me... In bad times and good times, since 2020. You guys are the best music band.

This is amazing. I feel like the word "lazy" implies so much: It makes it seem like I'm not trying. I just... can't, and there's no better explanation. This song makes me feel okay calling laziness what it is. It hurts and I love it.

It takes a special kind of talent to intentionally animate something to look incomplete.

I love how to go with the title “lazy”, the title is all lowercase, some frames aren’t drawn, animation corners were cut, the thumbnail isn’t centered, and there’s a play button on the thumbnail. In other words, very clever and I love it

this is worryingly relatable

I just love this song. The animation, the tone and the lyrics and the kind of irony of how much effort it takes to make this look half assed. Loved it

'I drift gently to sleep' **LITERALLY FACEPLANTS INTO PILLOW**

2:56 "Sorry, a serious error has occurred that requires this application to shut down. Tough shit buddy."

Something I haven't seen anyone mention over the years I'd the genius of the description. A single, 2 letter word of detachment, the copy pasted stuff that's in every other description, and it's the first song that has no lyrics in the description. Edit: the only other one without lyrics in the description is Long Time Friends

I love how creative the whole song and video is. It's really clever to fill a whole chorus by repeating "i'm lazy i'm lazy i'm lazy i'm lazy", fits it perfectly, and the video is awesome as well (I love the part of "I was screwed underwater and it's literally that xD)

"No matter what I make, they never see mistakes" -TLT You were laughing at us then but we still love you. You've got this.

Anybody realise that this music video’s message is proving to us how much effort is put into his music videos?

This is the definition of high effort to apear low effort Amazing concept and surprisingly intimate topic!

2:02 "I was like a lamb to the slaughter". I don't know if I'm right, but I think I've just realized how that makes reference to the fact that TLT for a while was know just as "the fnaf songs band".

same

Well... I tried 😅

Admittedly missed this whole album drop while lost in a year long depression fog but GOD DAMN. I've been listening to it on repeat for days now and this one in particular has me finally drawing again, just in time for a huge work opportunity. Seeing y'all grow so big from the Discord /Pinkie's Brew days has been incredible and we LOVE TO SEE IT. 🥺

They even took 4 months off after making this to represent the meaning of this song. Mad respect

They were so lazy they didn't even capitalize the title.

At first I wasn’t impressed with the concept of the animation, just being the band playing, but then I quickly realized, it’s not about what’s being animated, it’s about the animation itself. Really cool concept executed well and works great with the lyrics

The animation for this is ingenious from the the odd and slowly more unfinished animation to the fact that he literally got someone else to do a section.

I found this song and I’ve never related more, I’m supposed to be finishing up my comic rn and I’m just chillin in bed listening to this 💀

y is this so relatable tho

Everyone is contributing to the song and Zero_One is just.. there.. like he's just there vibin'

Ive had crappy headphones this whole time and this song was still good, now that ive got good speakers its easier for me to see how much of a masterpiece this and all your other music is

That’s actually executive dysfunction and/or depression he’s describing. People tend to see it as being lazy though. I relate to this song so much.

am i gonna sound dumb when i say this is actually like legitimately the most creative music video i've ever seen? especially with the song, it fits perfectly.

Description: Guest animator: @Berd Berd, you've come a long way.

Everyone(the band): "Playing or contributing to the audio of the song" Zero_one: *aggressively dancing*

I'm currently animating a thing and this song keeps showing up whenever I'm listening to music and it thankfully makes me self aware enough to keep creating

This is such a sick idea for Lazy's music video, thinking outside the box, and the ironic thing is it still looks like a lot of effort was put into it but I'm no animator so what do I know

Why is this his most relatable song he has ever made.

I just found this tlt song and its fire.

I feel like they put more effort in trying to not try rather than if they tried to try.

*"Its been a long time since No Mercy"* oooouch that...that hurts

Imagine making this as an art school project

I kinda wish that they make a finished version of this, but at the same time this is such a creative video.

I love this and how creative it is!!!! And the designs are just amazing!!!! ✨💫⭐️🌟

This is probably one of the most creative things they have done so far, the animation may have been "lazy" but that's what made it so good!

“It’s been a long time since “no mercy”” *No mercy intensifies*

This song is connected with everything... With the title, the cover, the video, everything is connected, this is incredible, incredibly creative. This band is brilliant.

I just discovered this song. The music is so catchy and good, and the music video is beyond genius. Each part crafted to look "lazy" so well. Berd's animation is wonderful, and the sketch part is absoulutly amazing.

I genuinely started losing it at the part where Berd drowned, i don't i've ever laughed this hard at a music video. Congratulations, you win... i guess? lmao

I like how everything is just lazy, the thumbnail, the title and the description

The way this whole album has geniuenly become my favorite album over the past few years. It's been with me through the roughest shit and songs like this one and long time friends are just so relatable. Such a masterpiece of an album.

Hurts me to find anything he says true, i perfectly see myself reflected in the lyrics and I hate myself for not changing, not trying to change, and not managing to change

2:08 "It's been a long time since No Mercy" Ah, the reference no one asked for, but we all secretly wanted it. (Anyways, jokes aside, this is amazing! Love the concept!)

I really want to see what this would look like fully “finished” now haha

absolute fire. im too lazy to stop listening this song. absolute fire.

the animation keeps dhanging and it brings me insprire to my imagination, or my arts. its music was so interesting that I couldn't find songs which had this unique attractive

Friends: So what kind of music does The Living Tombstone do? Me: Their genre is 2020.

I like how this video is basically exposing us 2D animators' secrets Edit: wtf is happening in the replies?? Y’all confuse me 🤪

I love the style on this fits the song so well

Just now discovering this song. If you ask me it sounds like depression more than laziness. But it’s SUPER catchy!. Must memorize lyrics!!
