Fun fact about why this song is 5 min... The creators heard Voltaire back when he was a nobody and were like "Hey make a song for our new show." and he was like "How would I get paid" and they told him it would be by the minute, with a max of 5 minutes. So he figured, okay it's going to be 5 minutes then. this came from the horses mouth.
So the first Voltaire song I ever heard was 'When You're Evil', and I thought it was awesome but my question was 'how did this song even happen?' Then I listened to the rest of their songs, and I'm like '...Oh. So that's how.'
literally been years since I've seen The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy but the minute I heard the first line of the song I got hit with a wave of nostalgia, great episode and great show :)
Judging by Voltaire's awesome music, the amount of fandoms this can apply to is astounding. :) I'm glad people from all different fandoms can enjoy such a bouncy tune!
BE me, a five year old, watching billy and Mandy. I remember the episode in my mind clearly. Years later, this comes on in recommended. *Screeching eternally*
Saw a song called "Brains" Immediately thought of my first "Grim Andventures of Billy and Mandy" episode (think it was called "Grim and Evil" at first, right?) Wondered "No that can't be the same song" Was very happy to find it was.
Wow...so billy and Mandy is where I heard this song! It took so many years to find this artist again(and that time it never clicked that I heard this music before when I was even younger)
Lol that's been a dream of mine for fucking ever - sucks you gotta give up 14 levels to paly the damned things - easier to play a Psion/Bard into Flayerspawn Psychic.
Am I the only one who heard it on B&M AFTER hearing here? I was at my friend's when I heard it... I was like "AYE!! That's Voltaire!!" *noone knows who he is in Sweden*
YES YES YES! I was re-watching some old Billy and Mandy a while back and I thought "Damn I wish I knew who sang this" and I couldn't find it anywhere. I just recently found Voltaire, then I see this and holy fuck I feel amazing :D
The first time i heard a sing of Voltaire was in the movie of billy and mandy with "land of the dead" but i become a fan of the band with "Almost human"
My friend just let me know that this was actually a song. I thought it was made for the show... It probably was, but still. It's pretty damn cool if you ask me.

***** I'm not judging if I gave that impression, I just thought it was a funny story.
For anyone wondering, a sweetbread is a food that is the internal organs of an animal such as liver or in this case: BRAIINNNSS!
Solar Loki testicular areas too
What about a cruller?
Cow brains too
According to Hannibal Lecter, a sweetbread is a thyroid gland.
The memories from billy and Mandy just came flooding back
@Hope Collins One of the greatest cartoon shows ever!
Same
This is CLASSIC evil. Ain't no tragic backstory, just a monster eating brains.
God damn he has the voice of a god.
Voice of the devil actually
He is both.
Pumpkin Dream So amazing!
God is everything

Nice to know that I'm not the only one who was introduced to Voltaire by that song.
Yep, my first Voltaire song, too!
My first Voltaire song as well.
Same
I miss billy and Mandy
literally been years since I've seen The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy but the minute I heard the first line of the song I got hit with a wave of nostalgia, great episode and great show :)
OMG!!!!!!! Billy and Mandy!!! can't believe i found it!!!!

+Vladutz19 RIGHT!

loved this episode of billy and mandy as a kid, fell in love with voltaire in college..found out he sung this. nearly died! :D
Yeah me too
A small side note, best way to eat brain is actualy with spoon.
nobody I prefer chopsticks 😉
Deer_Irony Hannibal, is that you? XD
Deer_Irony would you use chopsticks for pudding? That’s what the texture is closer to.
BE me, a five year old, watching billy and Mandy. I remember the episode in my mind clearly.
Years later, this comes on in recommended.
*Screeching eternally*
"It's not a matter if isn't gray." Man, this song was perfect for Billy and Mandy.
Voltaire is brilliant, this is the only episode of the show i actually remember, I'd count this among his master-pieces
Voltaire you were awesome in billy and Mandy Grimm adventure!
Shadow Force there is a 107 facts about Billy and Mandy and Voltaire is the host
I still can't belive how awesome it is that an entire episode of Billy and Mandy was just one song number!
my favorite cartoon + my new favorite artist = I can die happy.
Right in the childhood... :)
The War Doctor now im kicking myself for never looking up who wrote this song billy and mandy was so nice
Probably my new favorite phrase lol
Why does this sound like a Disney villain song?
billy and mandy cartoon network that's why.
Disregard all other comments, that's just how Voltaire writes music.
Voltaire does that.
Little Rock of Horrors.
With the alien guy.
Voltaire was the alien eyeball thing.
You know. The alien guy that eats brains.
i love this, i sing it all the time
Saw a song called "Brains"
Immediately thought of my first "Grim Andventures of Billy and Mandy" episode (think it was called "Grim and Evil" at first, right?)
Wondered "No that can't be the same song"
Was very happy to find it was.
It was the grim adventures of billy and mandy
this song brings back memories of my childhood.
I agree
Voltaire is one of the best singers ever.
Ah. Good times being a kid. This takes me back
Me too
I loved watching Voltaire at dragon con... several years now i've been listening to him.
This brings me back, when cartoons had class
Wait...Vol...oh my god...I loved him before I even knew it!
omg his voice is so good it makes me shiver:D
Billy & Mandy *-* Thanks for this
White -Koichi NYYYEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
This song is very clever at playing on words.
Oh my god!! I thought this dude sounded familiar!! I can't believe it! This dude was on the grim adventurers of Billy and Mandy! So awesome! Yes!
I miss this show so much!!!
Thank you Billy and Mandy for introducing me to Voltaire. Best childhood (in terms of shows.)
This is exactly why you never make friends with a Mind Flayer.
Yep I never make friends with a stranger
I heard Voltaire when I was super young without even realizing it! :D explains why I like his music so much
Wow...so billy and Mandy is where I heard this song! It took so many years to find this artist again(and that time it never clicked that I heard this music before when I was even younger)
Omg I had no idea this was Voltaire! I love this song and I loved this episode!
This is such a briliant, catchy song. :D
'They wont think twice, if they dont have a brain' :'D So cute...x)
0_0
Szijártó Zina I think we found a future serial killer here
well I mean, he's not wrong. they won't think twice without a brain. it's the most efficient way to go about things.
MIND FLAYER THEME SONG
+Reaver VonVette brb, rolling up a Mind Flayer Bard
Lol that's been a dream of mine for fucking ever - sucks you gotta give up 14 levels to paly the damned things - easier to play a Psion/Bard into Flayerspawn Psychic.
+Reaver VonVette Simple, find a DM willing to run a Monster-PC campaign. LA and RHD for monster races are generally waived in those kinds of campaigns
what's that
A Mind Flayer is just a huge "Fuck You" from the DM to the Adventurers
o, my god, they sing that? that's where i've heard them before!
thank you, now i won't be up wondering all night....
so much nostalgia
BlossXdexfan maybe nostalgia critic should review this song in top 11 nostalgia songs
Alas, the poor space rock had no idea of the pure evil he had snacked on...
Am I the only one who heard it on B&M AFTER hearing here?
I was at my friend's when I heard it... I was like
"AYE!! That's Voltaire!!"
*noone knows who he is in Sweden*
5 people got their brains taken away
Then how'd they think twice if they don't have a brain?!?
Jacob Heward idk ask the alien sucking out peoples brains
+Jacob Heward They _didn't_ think twice. If they'd thought twice, they would've liked the song.
now it's 22 people. i love this song, i miss billy and mandy
Wow 28 people, that dude must be huge
That sweetbreads part was brilliant
The song is so amazing and it brings back memories
YES YES YES! I was re-watching some old Billy and Mandy a while back and I thought "Damn I wish I knew who sang this" and I couldn't find it anywhere. I just recently found Voltaire, then I see this and holy fuck I feel amazing :D
Voltaire rules!
i love his songs i cant stop listen to them this is from the show billy and mandy you can see right there
Billy and Mandy :3 that show practically raised me XD epic childhood.
If you told me that this was his original song they asked to use for the show, I'd believe it
Haha! Not only is the song catchy, but it also allows memories from so long ago to come back. ^^
god, I'm dancing to this. @_@
why are you telling god you're dancing to this?
Hmm, um god isn't real...
I love Voltaire
2:40 I think it's all the sweet friends you happen to see other than all the sweet breads you happen to see xD
Definitely singing this at my schools talent show.
I love this song!
Ok why dose seem more terrifying then Zombies eating your brains?!
Heck yeah!
because of Billy and Mandy.
pepper Mill billy and mandy makes everything less scary
Well true
yup
billy and mandy! didnt even realize till right now. First time I listen to this and I connected it so fast.
This song would make an amazing sample for a rap beat. Plus, brings back amazing memories of Billy and Mandy (:
Billy and mandy, Curage the cowardly dog, ed eddn eddy. (and so many others and not enough characters lol) This brings me back to childhood.
Omg i recognised this instantly xx
+hollie1911 x I did, too. xx
Why does this feel like a song that could be in a Disney movie or something like all dogs go to heaven?
I was listening to the intro thinking "I know this song" now I can't stop thinking of billy and Mandy lol
Love this song.
Me too
I loved how this song was for the one episode of grim adventures of Billy and Mandy
No, that was Land of the Dead by Voltaire. This is the episode where Billy befriends a giant brain-eating alien that's shaped like a brain.
And the violin (I don't know much about instruments so don't kill me) definitely adds to the creepyness.
The song was actually made specifically for the show. They asked Voltaire if he'd make a song for the episode.
The first time i heard a sing of Voltaire was in the movie of billy and mandy with "land of the dead" but i become a fan of the band with "Almost human"
So much nostalgia
My friend just let me know that this was actually a song. I thought it was made for the show... It probably was, but still. It's pretty damn cool if you ask me.
Actually the show was technically made for the song, the creators hired voltaire to make a song.
Hermeaus Mora Approves.
The Grim Adventures of Hetastuck and Voltaire... I think that sums up all the fandoms! :)
this was my childhood
Yup. The show that got me into Voltaire.
BILLY N MANDY? :D
pretty much
YASS!!
FRED FRED BURGER!
Chase Plays Some Games yes
Ayyyyy
Ah, childhood.
Voltaire on Cartoon Network?
YESSSSSS
All I can think of is Billy and Mandy. I never knew this was a real song outside of the show before 😂
GOOD MEMORIES!
This is how humans might sound to natives of a different world if we get there and ask for a steak.
It might be that barbaric to them.
I got Billy and Mandy vibes coming on..... I didn't realize this is where it came from!
The one dislike was Mandy.
(Billy and Mandy)
What? what??? WHAT?? THE GRIM ADVENTURES OF BILLY AND MANDY!!! this episode traumatized the shit outta me!
OMG I didn't know this was a real song....
lol childhood
this is personally my fave song by Voltaire!
Bwainsssss
you profle pic is perfect for this comment
Bronydom22, the song in Billy and Mandy is Brains, put captions on during the episode and read the lyrics. It's this song.
Love it
"...and half an hour later I'm hungry again." Geez, what a pig.
Anyone else think Kurloz and Mituna?
that's what brought me here
TRASH
TRASH EVERYWHERE
+senpai12341 of course
Yeah!
my sim when they eat brain ice cream
Why am I attracted to really eerie songs? o.O Are there any songs that are like this except, with you know, much lighter lyrics?
This is as light as Voltaire gets.
+TamaNostre what about the death death devil devil evil evil song? seems pretty light
+leonidas Or the Satan Satan Hell Hell Hell Hell Hell Cannibal Cannibal Nightmare Nightmare Death Death Destruction Negative Evil Evil Bloodshed Bloodshed Bloodshed Apocalypse song of sorrow?
Oof this is old but if you haven’t heard Eat You by Caravan Of Thieves you should, it’s like a creepy cannibal love song.
Voltair and one eyed doll has the best halloween songs. *-*
Dammit Billy...
You like brains don't you Squidward.
I just want MORE voltaire and MORE milton pool art in AQWorlds and for sure it will be the best game ever >.>
