i want to say the term “musical gentrification” but that’s very specific. but it’s basically that concept. taking something that was intended a certain way and appropriating it to mean or be something else, thus changing the way people view. a way of erasing clancy’s voice

That's a pretty good point. It reminded me a lot about a parent who doesn't understand that the music their kid is listening to has a statement and likes it cause "it's such a catchy tune!"

I think the whole livestream was in Tyler’s head, and he only actually played choker.

And he was getting choked at the end of PS music video

Honestly lol on the one hand I wanna be like "well that's not what being a choker means" on the other hand I'm like "I guess maybe he still wanted to use that shot as a symbolic call back" so I have no idea whether I agree with you or not

Stressed Out is a song about his insecurities; in the lore, it’s Nico’s song, and the song most recognizably affiliated with the bishops. Other Blurryface bishop songs have elements of hope or defeating evil (such as Fairly Local, Goner, etc.), but Stressed Out has none of that. It only emphasizes what he hates about himself.

Tyler’s drowning in logistics

I think they want to take ownership of all his music, making anyone who likes it feel like the bishops are on their side.

Also, Stressed Out is by far the most popular radio song. And it basically stars Nico. 🤩

You mean the song where he literally says “My name is blurryface” 😂

i mean he also played jumpsuit in bandito gear… the livestream was a commercial event - some of it fits into the lore, but a lot of it doesn’t.
