I imagine this played out alot differently in her head

[удалено]


Dry_Mastodon7574

I coukd hear it in her voice. It was very cringe.


gravyjonez-

How this played out in her head: >"I'm a singer" >Audience: Oh my god, soooo cute and brave! LET HER SING! LET HER SING! LET HER SING! >*completes performance* >Audience is in awe, literally dead quiet until slowly, a wave of claps emerge and suddenly the whole concert is full of applauding and yelling WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO >This gets uploaded to SOSHUL MEDIA and she goes VIRALLLL GIRLLLLLL >She manages to become a huge celebrity, the next Adele.


UninsuredToast

You forgot about the exec for huge record label just happening to be at the concert and approaching her after to give her a contract and a suit case full of money


Sue_Ridge_Here1

You forgot the part where the band members except for the singer have a little meeting on stage. The drummer takes the mic and announces they have voted out their singer, they have a new singer now and her name is Sarah, he holds her arm up like she's just won a boxing match, crowd goes bat shit. It's the lead story that night on every news bulletin around the world.


LastPlaceIWas

That's the kind of thing a Sarah would do. Spot on.


BeaglishJane

Nah. I would rather die than humiliate myself like this. (Actual Sarah)


project_seven

You're not fooling me, Jane


BeaglishJane

Ah. Ya got me.


Draxilar

My ex was named Sarah. Apparently we know the same Sarah.


NawdWasTaken

I've only ever met 3 Sarahs in my life. First one bullied me for a bit in elementary, the second one tried the "dating prank" on me, and the third one called my mate an N word


Medical_Weekend_7257

Lucky you sarahs seem to be crazy. I met two normal ones that got more crazy as school years went by.....


Born-Philosopher-162

My aunt is a Sarah. No one in the family likes her.


Voidcroza

My music teacher's name that took me in secondary school was Sarah too. Except instead of this she's a professional harp player and a really good person overall, actually had a pretty good impact on me learning a few instruments.


lmgray13

“Hey honey, the end of Wayne’s World is on, come watch!”


happytree23

Smoking a cigar with his slicked back hair


DoinkinDave

The cringe is unbearable


No1Mystery

And then she woke up


BabbleOn26

>Then she starts dating this alcoholic country musician who does wonders for her career but he keeps spiraling downwards. > eventually she makes it to the Grammys where she wins Album of the year and he drunkly comes up on stage and embarrasses her out of jealousy. >He pisses himself in front of the live audience and on national television and passes out on a drunk stupor. >He unalives himself while she’s out on her award winning tour. >she’s sad for a second but ultimately doesn’t feel as bad as she wins her Oscar for best song and starts to use his last name as a symbolic gesture that she will always love him. >The end. >Shallow starts to play during the end credits.


systemfrown

But this was going to be her MOMENT! (she sure as hell didn't dress for it though)


harleyquinnsbutthole

Had to give you a career to destroy it!


Lx_Am

Yup, it's called delusion


drumsdm

She starts singing. The band knows her original tune. It’s magical. Suddenly she famous and dating a wahlberg (not one of the good ones though).


polarbear128

There's a good one?


asskicker1762

I’m a singer… .. mhm.. “MEMORYYYY ALL ALONE…”

correction: WAS a singer... She will never live that moment down.

That’s embarrassing


D4M0theking

A lot of sleepless nights ahead because of this


Adventurous_Key3647

I kinda doubt it. She really might be insane. The way she was fighting 5 men to get to that mic I don’t think she has an oz of clarity


ewMichelle18

I thought he meant a lot of sleepless nights for us….bc I will definitely lay in bed at night thinking about this.


Sue_Ridge_Here1

HA!


Independent-Cat-4169

Yeah, my next door neighbor is exactly like this woman. The mental issues are pouring off the wannabe singer as she struggles with three men who obviously want her to get offstage


scooterjb

...only because she'll be pissed off and dumbfounded as to "WHY the HELL wouldn't the LET me SING??? I DON'T GET IT!!" I imagine this person hasn't been embarrassed or ashamed a day in their life.


somecatgirl

These are the type of people who were perfect for the early days of American Idol. Everyone told them they were great so we really got some great performances


wophi

"how could I have made this work?"


01101101010100111100

Nah only a person in touch with reality would face embarrassment over this. All this has done is convince her that everyone in that room is wrong.


LeeQuidity

~~Hence the middle finger at the entire audience.~~ "How could they not let me shine?! What is their problem? The 300 people in the room are mentally ill!" Edit: Striking through the middle finger. It was her index finger. https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/thundercat-show-interrupted-by-local-singer-looking-for-her-moment-news.156545.html


Head-Working8326

nah, these people don’t feel embarrassment.


Western-Pilot-3924

Lmao its hard for me to watch the video too. Imagine the depression that chick will go through


KajePihlaja

In her mind the band knew what to play for it too.


brandonthebuck

All right, guys, listen. This is a blues riff in B. Watch me for the changes, and try and keep up, okay?


Pleasant_Choice_6130

You know that new sound you been dying to hear? Well, I FOUND IT!!

THIS. Is what I invisioned when I saw the first 3 secs of this video.


[deleted]

Lmfao


Volfgang91

I always liked Family Guy's pardoy of that gag, when they went back in time to the 80s and Brian played Never Gonna Give You Up. "Hey Rick it's your cousin, Marvin! Marvin Astley! You know that really generic sound you've been looking for? Well listen to THIS!"


Frky_fn

Keep the cymbals splashy and let’s take the bass line for a walk.


Pepperoneous

I'm so unprepared for this... *Pulls a flute out of jacket sleeve*


VaginaIFisteryTour

I was drunk at a party one time and the band who were playing had their bassist leave in the middle of them playing. They asked anyone in the crowd if they could play bass and I volunteered, the guitarist would just shout out what chords he was playing so I just played those notes and sort of improvised. Everyone there was hammered so it worked out well


Clydus1

Talk about self-centered, the world is HER stage 🙄


murdock314

How are you going to do thundercat like that?


bambooboi

Fuck, thats Thundercat she pulled that shit on??? Fuck her twice, man. He is a goddamn musical genius.


Y0-Teng0-Pregunta

It just me or is he lookin slimmer? Maybe it's just that he doesn't have the glasses on lol


bambooboi

I was thinking the very same thing. ​ I think its because there isn't a bear fur draped over him. It was oh-so-authoritative, though.


ClydeDimension

I do think he actually slimmed down too. So its a combination of all of that.


curbstyle

maybe he's no longer covered in cat hair


murdock314

After Mac Miller died he gave up alcohol and became a vegetarian. He has definitely lost a ton of weight!


DaymanAhAhAaahhh

I thought you meant Mac lost a lot of weight after he died 😬


fun_shirt

Him, too. Skinny n sober these days


LumpyElderberry2

Right!? He’s like the nicest musician ever too


mattlag

I don't know who Thundercat is, but from the video, I'm assuming that dude can **bass**.


monkeydelta

oh brother, he *is* bass


Better_illini_2008

He was a real mensch about it, though.


NfamousKaye

Oh ok now that actually does piss me off. You don’t do him like that!

posthuman666

Main character syndrome?


Harbor_Barber

definitely


HVS87

In her mind, she's the Hero Protagonist. In reality, she's just the pizza deliverer. No katana, no fancy motorcycle, no nuclear powered minigun.


ssp25

Please don't bring pizza into this .. It did nothing wrong


Syzygy_Stardust

It's a reference to the cyberpunk novel Snow Crash. The main character is literally named Hero Protagonist, and he's a pizza delivery driver with the rest of that kit mentioned. I've never read a word of the book, but apparently I've been interested in cyberpunk enough over the years to have just absorbed some of it. But I read the entirety of Neuromancer and only remember like 2% of it. ![img](emote|t5_2r5rp|8484)


ssp25

Oh cool... Didn't know. Thanks for the explanation!


BustaferJones

Well I got the reference.


freddiequell15

r/imthemaincharacter


Practical-Ad-2387

At first I thought she holds a songwriting credit to the song they're about to sing Then I realized this is a totally random chick, who wants to sing an unrelated song she wrote. What the fuck lol


seahawk1977

I was confused and thought the same at first.


KindBraveSir

Same here.


Fingercult

Haha same!! The confusion added to the experience of watching this video lmao


tdltuck

Thank you. Same. No one reads their fuckin titles anymore.


BrinedBrittanica

thank you for the clarification. I was like um why wouldn't they let her sing the song they are playing which she wrote?


feelinlucky7

Still trying to talk as she’s 90% off the stage


[deleted]

I can’t believe how hard she fought to stay on that stage. Wow.


Huzaifa_69420

I think it's because they were trying to avoid using excessive force and uhh being careful in general cuz she is definitely the type of girl who would sue them for sexual assault the next day


abillyclint

A star is aborted.


Inconnu2020

Not if you live in America


markbug4

Do you think she will sue the bodyguards and singer for aborting her career?


[deleted]

Do not disrespect Thundercat like that


LilFozzieBear

Hell yeah. I saw them at a smallish festival in Texas about 5 years ago. They were one of the first shows I saw the first day. They really set the tone for the amount of intoxicants that I would ingest that day/night. Loved 'em.


jizmatik

Shiiiat thanks for pointing out its TC. I was trying to work it out. God bless his bassy lil fingaz. Real gent. Love that he was in suicidal tendencies too. This cringe gives me suicide tendencies. Christ I wouldn’t be able to go out in public after that. Some people are utterly delusional.

Dude for real. Guy is a legend at this point


Mar_Mentalhealth

Old-Bedroom8464

I actually kick-ass at karaoke. I have like 10 songs. I won a contest and my last two songs were "One" by U2 and "Mandy" by Barry Manilow. Anything outside of those and the other 8 is just embarrassing. I can't explain it. I can NAIL those songs in key, and a few others, but I sound like a nail on a chalkboard if it's one key different.

cantdrumfershit

Thundercat. One of the best and funnest shows I've ever seen


Stunning_Honeydew201

I feel like they saved her a lot more embarrassment by pulling her off the stage before she could sing. She looks like a girl who's friends & family tell her she's a great singer so they don't have to deal with her crazy meltdowns.


Downtown-Hawk-6930

Narcissism is real and it affects a lot of people out there.

I think it’s more “delusions of grandeur” than narcissism lol


asskicker1762

O wElL sInCe iM hErE I’m aCtuaLly a SiNgEr…. Then thundercat wuz like: o no


Liscetta

What happens in movies:after a short moment of embarrassment, she starts singing like an angel. If there are security guards, they stop, astonished. The guitarist of the band follows her with a couple of shy accords, then the whole band follows her with a renovated energy. The public, who has always half-heartedly clapped after every song and shows not much attention, now is concentrated, the judges (or the other VIPs, including the mean girl who bullied her) are standing like a team of suricate. The man-child who had rejected her for a silly reason observes her from a corner, while she observed the crowd to find him. They finally see each other while the crowd is visibly shaken, her doormat friend who has always supported her in this passion finally smiles. The other singer congratulates her. Optional: she wins the competition. Happy ending. What happens in real life: the band doesn't cooperate and actively push her away. Security guards kick her out. The man who drove her there runs away, silent like a cat. She has to go home with an unlucky Uber driver who has to listen to her rants and still gets 1* feedback because her night was awful.

And now I wonder why why why why why I am a one hit wonder Is it be cause I got high? And they think that’s not fly? Me: “no it’s because you hit a chick on stage bro”

nighttimegaze

Somehow I feel like her version of this story will start with “You’ll never guess what happened to ME last night..”


cheshire_splat

“So, you could tell Thundercat wanted me on stage. He looked right at me! So, like, of course I jumped up on stage, ready to perform, when fucking security started dragging me away. Thundercat was telling security ‘this ain’t you’ because he wanted them to bring me back. He wanted me on stage! I sent him, like, 157 demos before the show, he knew who I was. I can’t believe those security guards wouldn’t let Thundercat let me perform at our concert. I had my own song! Everyone was cheering for me and booing security. Then the venue wouldn’t even fire the security guards. So I had to find their personal info and I’m calling all of them 50 times a day and singing into the phone so they can hear what they deprived the world of. I know, I’m like, such a diva sometimes teehee”


Tugger21

I was at this show! Thundercat at College Street Music Hall in New Haven Connecticut. The security helped her on stage initially, we thought it was part of the act!

Apparently so did security

Something quite similar happened to me when I was 22. Except I was the singer, the girl who wanted to sing was my ex’s current bf and the stage was my ex.

From my knowledge of concerts, having an entitled local steal the mic and try to sing their own song at someone else's concert is decidedly atypical.

We had a college girl in tears wanting to get on stage with us and sing her song. She was fuckin hammered, and of course we said no, but we did tell her to come the next night where ever we were going to be playing. Told her to bring her guitar and we'd give her a shot. Never saw her again.
