A new cover song? Already? Isn't that just... swell?!
What a fun song and character! We decided to take it in a somewhat more old-fashioned direction... leaning hard into those old cartoons that inspired Spinel's character. :D
HUGE thank-you to BSlick for the instrumentals and mixing on this cover! Please go check out his stuff, everyone:

Welcome to episode #077 in a series of videos where I'll be talking about various topics - ranging from past and future projects, to stories, to what I've been getting up to out & away from the magical interwebs!
Today's topic: a little bit different, and jumping off from my recent rewatch of G Gundam: a habit I've had as far back as I can remember!

Imagination (Instrumental) by Akira the Don

Not everybody works by toon physics, Bendy...
SO I DREW THE COMIC ON LIVESTREAM, AND MY BUDDY AUSTIN SURPRISED ME LATER THAT NIGHT WITH A DUB OF IT, AND I'M OVER THE MOON RIGHT NOW. So I just had to arrange the comic and its dub into a video!
As further explanation: so if you've been following me on Tumblr (squigglydigg.tumblr.com), you'll know I've been toying around with the idea of an alternate universe of Bendy and the Ink Machine in which, after finding his way into the decrepit old studio and being engulfed by the ink there... Henry wakes up to find himself turned into a cartoon, in a studio that seems equal parts toony and jarringly real. As he explores the studio, he discovers that a certain cartoon he used to work on has come to life as well, and has decided to take his revenge upon the animators and staff who abandoned him in the best way a cartoon knows how -- physical comedy and hijinks.
The idea is that Bendy doesn't want to KILL Henry or any of the old staff -- just bat 'em around a little, see how THEY like it when they're the ones being toyed with on a page, never to escape. What he doesn't know is that Joey Drew, the one creator who came back for him, has left out a few details regarding the functionality of how the Ink Machine brings cartoons to life, and life to cartoons.

✪ LYRICS:
Listen, child,
long ago
man and monster waged their souls
Ye who falls Underground
shall choose how this tale's unwound
O, the angel fallen so low
upon a bed made of gold
a heart of red as sole guide
With thine soul, shed thy light
and let the Underground bend
under your will
Will you mend the wrongs of ages old?
Or shall you take our souls?
Life and LOVE born anew
We place our dreams in you
Gilded stars pave thy trail
So begins this Undertale...
Broken in the wake of fantasy
Shattered once again under cruelty
Chained to fate, recurring nightmares
Still: a glimmer of how it could be
Sacrifice thy want of tyranny!
Give it all for those who believe thee!
Lo, the savior from humanity,
shower those you face with thy mercy!
Behold! The angel fell from the heavens
So shall the ground run empty
Behold a stranger, O, ye who beckons
to all the souls who met thee
Come here to save the lost and the weary
Come to forgive the guilty
Behold a friend to those who would name thee
Behold the one to SAVE me!
Hark ye, monsters and humanity
standing here where many have fallen
So the wheel has spun our destiny
Answer now the one who is calling!
Stand and face thy fear of tyranny!
Call forth all the courage within thee!
Lo, the savior from humanity,
shower those you face with thy mercy!
For all of time, we will keep
our HOPES AND DREAMS
For all of time, even when the light is unseen
Under the stars, we will find
our HOPES AND DREAMS
As one in heart, with this light our voices will ring
And all the heavens will hear
our HOPES AND DREAMS
And shall the mountain and sea sing in harmony
Let our souls beating as one be the answer
to all the suffering in the end
In the end...
Listen, child,
long ago
man and monster waged their souls
Ye who falls Underground
shall choose how this tale's unwound
