The Cog is Dead's rendition of "Pink Elephants on Parade" from the classic film Dumbo. SINGLE AVAILABLE NOW! Support The Cog is Dead's music on Patreon: www.patreon.com/thecogisdead
This makes me think of an extremely paranoid man who has a phobia of pink and elephants, due to a traumatizing childhood experience (being caught in, and barely surviving, an enraged elephant stampede while visiting the circus as a child - the fear of pink comes from the cotton candy he got at the circus on that particular day). And ever since that day, he suffers from seeing hallucinations of hordes of monstrous pink elephants following him around and threatening to crush him. You guys did a a great job.
You may be interested in the Camp Here And There podcast! It's a story about a character with psychosis-- when he is stalked by a man in an elephant mask, people assume he is once again "seeing pink elephants" and write off the very real danger.
I was absolutely not expecting this, specially since this song was my introduction to this channel but… it’s incredible!! I love this song and the emotion you put in it is exactly what I was searching for in a “Pink elephants on parade” cover. Thank you so much for this, it’s wonderfully done.
This version and the V Is For Villains cover are the most awesome versions of this song I've ever heard! Now if I could just get an Abney Park cover next, my collection will be complete!
In 2011 i was in steampunk and i loved from you the death of the cog, and vernian proces, and some other bands. Thank you, and i wish we will have much more fun in the future. Thanks
and then you realise that Tony The Tiger 🐅 and The Man who voiced a Cartoon Rabbit 🐰 (and Bugs is not only Looney Tunes he voiced) sang The Original Pink Elephant Song
God I was afraid of that section of the movie when I was a little kid. xD Another Disney "nightmare song" I'd love to see is "Heffalumps and Woozles" from the OG Winnie the Pooh.
OMG this is too amazing to be real! Fantastic work. I was listening to Voltaire and similar artists on Alexa when this song suddenly appeared. I was thinking "Man I wish there was more music like Voltaire" and bam. Lately I've been obsessed with Jim Carrey's latest role as Dr. Eggman, wondering... _'what is it?'_ I guess you call that steampunk. ^_^
I feel as though it keeps to the true orignal version but with a little bit of a Tim Burton edge unlike the one they used for the live action. I have to say the original and this cover are tied in first place for me 2nd would be Circus Contraption

I'm absolutely flabbergasted as to why this band isn't more popular.
I too am perplexed by this matter. This cover is so amazing. :P
This song scared me as a kid..
This cover didn't improve it 20+ years later.
Well, it made it epic... but also scarier.
Darn you for being awesome!
When you drop acid at your local steampunk convention
🤣
Now that would make a great fuckin movie
Gotta say, I didn't expect it to sound surprisingly epic, but I'm impressed. Great job once again John.
This will truly be a work of art entirely in its splendid
This was always my favorite part of the movie when I was a kid, so of course I'm loving this! Thank you!
MAN I loved Dumbo as a kid and loved that song so much nostalgia!

Why do the Cog covers *always* sound better than the originals?
And, now I'm off to find my own pink elephants at the bottom of the bottle.
It's like a more natural sounding voice for a rock or metal cover
This is why I love The Cog is Dead. This is amazing
I do miss their older stuff, the death of the cog will always be my fav song of theirs, but I adore their covers regardless!
This is an amazing rendition of this trippy song
Yay yet another piece of work from my favorite steampunk bandv!!!
I wasn't expecting this, but man this is fantastic!
This version and the V Is For Villains cover are the most awesome versions of this song I've ever heard! Now if I could just get an Abney Park cover next, my collection will be complete!
what a way to reignite this epic piece of delicious nightmare fuel.

I have been waiting years for you chaotic mad people would do this one. Finally it is over, and damn is it good

Thurl Ravenscroft was a very talented individual with an amazing and unique voice!
Didn't he also sing your a mean one from the original Grinch movie?
One of my childhood favorites 🖤
Oh it's my childhood nightmare from Disney and MK ultra - remastered!
42 is the answer to all life's quetions.
Yoo One of my favorite songs by a favorite artist !!! 💕💕💕
Great, I was just looking up the original and the remake scenes with this song recently! You guys really are time travelers!
OH THIS WILL SLAP SO HARD
Can't wait for it!
I love this channel so much
Looking forward to this!
Ooohhh can't wait to listen to it!
what a sight indeed!
In the Spanish version, when they sang "They must be relatives of Satan" always scared me even more as a little girl
This is so amazing, I can’t believe it 🤘🏻🤘🏻
My guy if u can do this with one Disney song I wonder what u can do with others this was amazing
aaaaa amazing as always man!!
I don’t think I’ve ever heard anything more steampunk in my *life*
kudos!💚
My favorite part is 1:25 personally :)
How long until someone redubs the original scene with this?
I could do it if no one hasn't done it.
💗🐘💗
love this song, good job
super!
How to make an already frightening dark song sound even more imposing :
This is great!
I really thought the original son couldn't be improved. Well,as you guys did improve it,I am happy to be proven wrong. This is so awesome! :)
God I was afraid of that section of the movie when I was a little kid. xD Another Disney "nightmare song" I'd love to see is "Heffalumps and Woozles" from the OG Winnie the Pooh.
So true :O
Why do I feel like this is leading up to a Circus-themed album called "Circus of Steam"?
That's a great name for an album.
I spent the whole song with a huge grin on my face.
Amazing work as per usual.
i didnt know i needed this
I'm in loved!!😍 the nostalgia...🥰 this gives me life! So glad I found this cover!
As always, great job!
Cool Tune!
Definitely worth the wait!
I mean… masterpiece
You guys are ridiculous! I was dying of laughter, but I was cured by your skill.
Brilliant as always
OH THIS IS AMAZING!!!!
You have very quickly become my favorite band
"WOW" Now that is so awesome for the cover of Dumbo,💗🐘
One of my fave disney songs, this is awesome!
OMG this is too amazing to be real! Fantastic work. I was listening to Voltaire and similar artists on Alexa when this song suddenly appeared.

2:00 Quarter-Thirdway in.
I like this cover in your performance! It's just great to listen to. Thank you very much for your efforts. You're a great guy.
This was one of my fave Disney songs~
Right amount of trippy, Crunchy epiccness. Subbed.
1:20 Halfway in.
I kinda wanna have a Disney party now and all the music we play are covers like this.
That. Was. Awesome!
Never loved this.
Now. Now I like it.
This has BIG Oingo Boingo/Danny Elfman vibes my guy. Best version of this song I think.
Damn. Not bad at all!
You bet I'm putting this on my "chaotic high playlist"
This is incredible
They have been posting a lot of covers recently, could this mean incognito vol. 2 will be coming soon?
This is my new favorite remix.
I'll conquer anything now!
I CAN EVEN SLEEP TO THIS!
Really channeling Vernian Process here
ah yes the "that was not medicine" song
Yo this is badass.
Going to repeat the request til we get an awesome cover of it :P
Please do a cover of "In the Dark of the Night" from Anastasia.
I feel as though it keeps to the true orignal version but with a little bit of a Tim Burton edge unlike the one they used for the live action. I have to say the original and this cover are tied in first place for me 2nd would be Circus Contraption
When Disney had the balls.
hey i really think it might be fun to do an i cant decide cover by siccor sisters
Do you have an instrumental version?
I haven't released one, but I do have the music.
Where?
@@stopanimatecreep3400 On the computer in my studio. It might be fun to release the instrumental, though.
kinda has a creature feature feel to it. nice!
Do heffalumps and woozles next
How to make one of the weirdest Disney moments ever even weirder.
Listening this beside my youngest, and he said "Dumbo... ...it's Rad. Rad elephants are dangerous!"
This sounded WAY better than the one from the 2019 remake.
Muito booommmm!!!
0:35
Me if I'd accidently discovered hallucinations:
This song is actually my aesthetic.
You should try "I'm The Bad Guy."
I think yall will Blow it up! KABOOM!!!
If this tune turned up in my head when unresponsive drunk (watching pink elephants) I might actually enjoy drinking more.
But unfortunately not. So I'll have to continue enjoying responsible drinking listening to such music as this instead.
Did this song used to scare the sh*t out of anyone else when they were kids?
Make the cog is dead - heffalumps and woozles (Winnie the pooh cover)
every song you make a cover of is better than the original version
Thought the title was a Father Ted reference. Turned out to be a Dumbo song cover.
Ah well, the music was alright.
Oy, the pandemic has really done a number on y'alls mind. LOL
ⁿ⁰∅
I was meh until the "hippity hoppity"
