I have several things to address “I’m not Satan, I’m Staan!” is the funniest thing I’ve heard all day Daniel looks too good with dark eyeshadow This song is kind of awesome The chorus is literally “When you die, when you die, when you diiiiiiie” Daniel can do literally everything. Sing, play piano, make things out of a balloon, act, and I’m sure there’s a lot more
@@unknownunknown-od2eg I've also been trying to find out what it reminds me of. It kind of sounds like the chorus of Save the Hero by Beyonce, but sped up. Maybe it's another case of "when you accidentally write a song that already exists" or maybe I'm just crazy. Either way it sounds so good!
It reminds me of something too. Literally spent the last 25 minutes trying to find the song... It does sound a bit like a sped-up version of that Beyonce song, but it also sounds like something else. Tearing my brain apart just to try and remember what it is lol.
@@anteaterborzoiTheBigBorzoi It kiiiinda reminds me of both 'clocks' and 'a sky full of stars' by Coldplay. Just has that sound of similar chord progression 🤔
Plot twist: Staan just likes to mess with people with contracts, knowing they won't actually sign it, and think they're a better person, making their day, Hence the utter confusion Staan has when Daniel is so willing to sign
plot twist: he played minecraft while Staan was talking because he was starting to realise he was right and decided to play minecraft instead of being an artist.
Every now and then I find myself coming back to this. I un-ironically love the tune and find it to be incredibly well written for such a goofy video. The “contract” section gives me goosebumps every time. So good. Thanks Daniel.
Me toooo! 😁 The videography and editing are so creative & fun, as is the sound design, and honestly as a creative the lyrics hit rather too close to home!! 😅
I didn't realize originally that when he tries to sign it with a pen, the background voice says to sign in blood and that's when he stops, and how he knows that he needs to later.
Lyrics: 5, 6, 7, 8. Hey kid I hear that you wanna be an artist? It's not gonna go so well, if I'm being honest. Your family will worry about what you do. You will be broke, until your days are through. Financially speaking, you'll be so screwed. It's not the fulfilling life you were promised. Unless you sign, on the line, of this contract. (Financial gains). I can ease your mind, you'll be fine, with this contract. (Fill out your name). You'll be like a king, with the world on a string, with this contract. (Sign in blood). Just abandon your home, grab your phone, die alone with this contract. 5, 6, 7, 8. Just know that fame comes with a price. When everyone treats you so nice. When everything fits like a glove. You'll never let yourself find love. Is it love, or are they lying? As long as you're rich, someone is trying. And when those pockets finally dry. You'll be alone for when you die. (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). Your parents abuse you. (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). Your friends will abuse you. (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). (When you die). I hope your alright, with that.
For a random bit, this would actually make a decent premise for a musical. An aspiring artist is approached by the devil and tries to endlessly fight with his decision.
That makes so much sense now. What's the first phrase the backing singers say? I can't work it out, think the second thing is 'fill your name' or something
0:52 - 1:22 is pretty fire, not gonna lie. I'd totally listen to Daniel keep singing as a devil trying to convince someone to sign a contract like this XD
Satan: You will die alone. Me: I'm already alone. Satan: People will only be friends with you because of your money. Me: I CAN HAVE FRIENDS?! Edit: Everybody say his name is Staan. But I AIN'T BUYING IT.
@Kaitlynn C. You can support yourself through a pandemic as an artist as we now have the internet and can market things without people needing to come to a store. If you are smart persistent and most importantly passionate you can do anything.
No, first thing... They put you in all sorts of classes since you were a kid. (my personal experience, I was given drawing, singing, dancing and instrument lessons before I could even write my name in my native language) but when you say that you wanna pursue it in the future, family be like: iS thAt eVen a caReEr?? WE just want you to 'know' how to-
@@paulalck2607 hey. I think you can search on youtube when you wanna be an artist only piano or piano turtorial. I found an video that was very good!👍😀
Not gonna lie, as a guy, I'm a little jealous he can pull it off so well. When I put on makeup, I just look like a girl. If done right, a pretty girl. But a pretty girl is not my goal lmao.
Nobody: Literally Nobody: Daniel: *doing a personality test, with a cat on his desk flipping him off, and a butter knife in his pocket* I would say Staan's reaction was justified
@@shayanmoosavi9139 it’s not autotuned, he double toned his voice and pitched the copy of his voice down and his normal voice up in order to make him sound like a demon.
@@crusher9165 I was referring to the singing voice, not the demon's voice. I also watched the other singing videos and most of them were auto tuned as well (probably deliberately for comedic effect like this one). His raw singing voice is pretty decent though.
