I thought the animation was fantastic. It was a very good exposition of the different styles and their subsequent artists present on Newgrounds. It was a great little colaboration and I think sums up the art of this site. (The good art I should amend... it left out the plethora of poorly drawn stick figures found around here....)

Hey man, don't be such a hater. I like it, and I'm not an emo.

Exactly like the "one love" submission.

Both were crappy.

How can you say that? It's a portfolio piece, highlighting what each author can do, nothing more. There is no meaning in it, because it's a bunch of characters singing in a white space. The lip sync and some of the drawn characters are about the only thing that this flash has to offer. I know this because the exact same graphics are repeated in the last half (no singing in music, but they are still singing). This cartoon is a good example of good talent racing ahead of an idea.

If it truly wanted to create a sense of collaboration, wouldn't you think that all of the characters would be shown in one shot, rather than each of them separated with a name by it. The only union that is made clear is that they all have a chance to sing, and it being the same song, mostly with a white background. Maybe if the microphone was passed to another singer, it would show us a sense of community, sharing the spotlight. But it wasn't made that way, it was made as a portfolio piece, each author with their name next to (I assume) what they drew. All separate shots! Great drawings, little sense of direction.

Anyone agree with me?

On top of which, djamin became a real ass after making it. Being all cocky and acting like all of the other song collabs now going were due to him when HE ripped off of someone elses idea in the first place.

Drugs are bad.

I have to agree with you on this one. This flash really wasen't all too impressive, and certainly not the greatest colab ever done. I dare say that some of the Clock colabs, as well as some others are much better then this one. It wasen't horrible, but it could have been so much better.

I really liked it. But i kind fine most of the other work the other people did. I would type in someones username that was on the flash and there was nothing there.

I also liked that my favorites were on there......Granfaloon and Dustball are freakin awesome!

ZOMG!

All of the artists didn't get the credit put into the Newgrounds database?

Everything that comes out now-a-days is the 'best this year', 'a true classic', 'the next big thing'. And in the end it all turns out to be a flop. I'd prefer just listening to the classic's like 'Definately Mabye' and 'What's The Story (Morning GLory'.
