Song: John, Take Me with You - JW Francis
@JWFrancis
• JW Francis - John, Tak...
/ @jwfrancis
This song came up on my Spotify earlier this year and my brain wouldn't let me stop imagining the singer as Garfield singing to his beloved Jon Arbuckle. Most of the time it seems like Garfield is pretty apathetic towards Jon, but I think deep down he'd be broken without his sad human companion. I'm no Garfield buff though, so I don't really know, haha.
This animation took me longer than expected, it started as a little side thing I was working on while working on the Streetpass video and like usual I found myself putting a lot of time and effort into it. I really wanted to play around with compositing with this, so I went for a 90's VHS look, I think I was successful??
Thanks for watching!

Why is this so sad?
No way bro, ME TOO
Fr. The animation, the color scheme, the music, it's all good.
Garfield doesn't need to say anything to express his emotions. It's good.
The sadness we feel is unparalleled.
He's not upset because he thinks he losing Jon, he's upset because Jon's taking Liz to an Italian restaurant and Garfield wants to go along.
^^^THIS😂😂
His love for lasagna can be interpreted as any other kind of love.
My exact thoughts also.
Like he heard them talking about going to a fancy resturaunt and Garf is pissed and meloncholy cuz he cant go.
This is canon now
LMAO
“I know the feeling, I really do”
HITS HARD
seriously. It really does ngl
"the ground Is sinking, right under you" 😭😭
"oh jon, take me with yooouuu" 😢
Oh Jon take me with yooooou 😿
Music*
no one is talking about it so i feel the need to say this from one artist to another, not only do you have a genuinely pleasant and fantastic art style, you're clearly extremely skillful in both drawing and coloring/shading, and your animation skills are top quality. This is one of my favorite animations currently and you should really be proud of yourself for making it!
also i love how towards the end the singer kind of sounds like a higher-pitched garfield.
Aw wow thank you so much
This is not my favorite animation just because I have seen one way better, just search "the mind electric by lonely man's Lazarus"
It's nice to see Garfield being a funny melodramatic cat again after so much fan content depicting it exclusively as an eldritch monster or in a depressing way.
I mean, this still is kinda depressing, but I agree! ^^
I agree. The amount of comments celebrating it made me worry they were all a joke, I just assumed he was going to transform into something. This is much comfier.
one thousandth like. you're welcome.
Facts
Or in a goth girl for no reason.
i legitimately love the way you draw garfield
and pretty much everything else
i love him in general
@@DaTrainMan I agree with this statement
Idk kinda more looks like Nermal
KATA YOU WATCH THIS GUY TOO
@@panned_noob hi pan
I cant stop watching this.. Theres something so comforting about the animation and the perfectly fitting song.. I watched this like 50 times today..
OMG TY FOR THE HEART
Me too
X2
I love this, it's just Garfield wanting John's love.
Garfield's apathy being due to genuine depression is a thought that kinda hit me like a truck
That's actually ridiculously sad oh my goodness
Y'all need to stop giving the cartoon kitty Layers 😢
@@BlueEyesWhiteDragonStanhe shall become an onion
@@toeeater199 more like a lasagna
remember the strips way back when they'd just casually mention suicide as a joking manner?
Everybody is talking about Garfield not being a cosmic horror for once-
Meanwhile, I'm surprised Jon somehow lasted 50 seconds without screwing up his date 😅
It's a complete turn of the tables from what has become the standard in the Fandom, John is not the show's punching-bag and Garfield is still a melodramatic sentient cat, a surprise, but a welcomed one for sure!
We'll never truly know as the video is 49 seconds xD
Give him time
How i picture gorefield sometimes is that jon died but he just couldnt handle the pain so he created jon threw hallucinations and tortured him when jon tried to run . as a punishment
@@garfieldlover6416what
0:43 Garfield: oh, he’s back, nvm! 😮😮😮
Most likely Jon screwed up the date already
@@SwiftlyTheFunny well as long Garfield’s ok!
I made a garfield cult at school, it has a locker with no handle that my friend figured out we could open with forks, and now we have a garfield shrine, and I'm going to make a meeting today to talk about this masterpiece.
aight
Wait tell us more about it
@@FryedChffon so, basically, we have 9 or maybe 10? no, 9 i think garfield comic books, 1 newspaper comic with garfield in it, 5 drawings of garfield, a garfield figurine, a tip jar (because people started tipping us), and some uncooked lasagna noodles.
Immaculate @@Sealington
@@Sealington Delightful
I wish i could help the Garfield cult community but alas. . .
Praised be the cat
Finally! A refreshing Garfield content where he remains a lovable comic feline and not turning him into Lovecraftian entity.
Look up “this song sounds like Garfield”
You’ll be pleased as well
@@OodlesDoodles19 The one from LemonTwistz? I've been there.
gilbert garfield is a very pleasant series! its very wholesome.
@@jafguyme when I purposefully spread misinformation on the internet:
@@ScuttleBugReal I don't know what spreading misinformation has anything to do with that, but there's actually a web horror series called Gilbert Garfield. It's just Garfield with Gilbert Gotfried's distorted face in it.
I love how his face changes to that last, super simplified expression. I like to imagine he’s going:
“Oh hey he’s back!”
John WOULD blow the date immediately leaving the door lol.
@@spoopabobble8166100%
@@spoopabobble8166Jon *has* made it through an entire date successfully at least once… But yeah, that is absolutely something he'd do 😂
In other words, a cat being _caught_ being melodramatic.
personally the melodramatic animation and silly vocal performance coupled with the genuine heartbreak of the melody and chords really hit me hard. People so often treat their heavy feelings as a joke to cope and fit in. For me the "oh" at 0:42 is almost a 4th wall-breaking look of surprise that real emotions slipped out in this silly animation.
The fact I cried to a Garfield animation is pretty special.
Holy shit, the animation is so gorgeous.
0:40 Love that sound and face. All worth. Also, glad to see non-creepy Garfield stuff out there still.
I would never be brave enough to make a sad garfield AMV
Yes you WILL you are braver then YOU BELIVE I BELIVe IN YOUUU
this cured my irrational fear of death and brough my dog back from the dead, thank you
sure thing!
omg, i was just about to comment this!! i brough my dog back from the dead too!
tbh if my dog was brought back i feel like that would only make my fear of death worse lol
What if I told you it's not irrational
@@Poly_0000 It is when you let it consume your life and worry about it all day every day for a full week. Specially when you're 18, healthy, got accepted into the college you wanted and have literally no reason to fear death, at all.
They added you to vs. Gorefield on Friday Night Funkin. Congratulations! :)
This is more slander than a good thing
I honestly can't explain how well the color scheme, style and music correspond to each other so well. THIS IS SO WELL DONE!
(Also, I love the slight glitch effect)
I love the idea that Garfield legitimately felt like he was losing his place in the family when Jon and Liz started dating. That's why he reveled so much in the "we're BACHELORS, baby" punchline. Because being a bachelor with Jon was nice and cozy and it was just the two of them always. He didn't want it to be ruined.
But Garfield is smart, a girlfriend is more expensive. Jon can focus on his gains instead and buying Garfield toys .
Doesn't Garfield have a girlfriend named Arlene? I like your idea though.
@@corenlavolpe6143I like to think of it that in a way, despite Garfield himself having a girlfriend, he feels like Jon wouldn't be able to make time for him anymore because his girlfriend would be getting in the way. Maybe it's also because he feels territorial over it, Jon's girlfriend, just going in his house and stealing his time with his owner? In his perspective, I'd also feel bummed out over it. I'm just sharing my idea, I don't mean any offense to you. Your thought is understandable :)
as a garfield buff id like to inform you that it's a common theory that garfield hates mondays because then jon has to leave for work. garfield loves jon and just doesn't know how to express it. beautiful animation btw i love your way of simplifying him
Garfield is so me
but but but... Jon works from home! He's show to do so in the first Jon comic
@@S3b0rg oh shit yeah you right
@@S3b0rg we almost never see him work past that so idk but you are correct
even though he's at home, he's still focusing on work all day and not his little garf so it still works i think :) @@S3b0rg
Came back again to watch this because man. The animation, framing, cinematography, overall movement. Just Mwah🥰👌 amazing
I watched this animation countless times and I saw it for the first time last week I love this a new favorite thank you
This is so much sadder when you remember that in one of Garfield’s nine lives, he had to be separated from his owner for a while because she found a love interest, so they couldn’t see each other for a really long time. Poor garf is probably reliving that experience
Dianas piano
@@becca7946 indeed…:(
Loved that one. Honestly the art was so cute.
It's my favorite, makes me cry every time
That one almost made me cry
I love how you can interpret this as Garfield being sad for feeling replaced or ignored but to me this feels more like Garf doing a dramatic song and dance because Jon planned for their date to be at a fancy Italian restaurant and told Garfield he had to stay home
Probably the case if we’re talking something they’d actually do
It's Garfield, obviously number 2 is the real one.
The expressions on Garfield really make this more emotional😔
this makes me cry so bad, so many lost years
There was a week long story arc in the comic strip where garfield suddenly gets transported to an old abandoned version of the house. No one but him is there, and he gradually grows neurotic and delusional, seeing illusions of Jon and Odie. He finally admits that he's afraid to be alone, and everything suddenly returns to normal. It may have been his imagination, may have not, but it shows Garfield has a fear of loneliness and can't handle being by himself and forgotten.
I mean he is a pet and pets would be frightened and traumatized when they realize that they will be alone in a dark place
"Week long story arc" isn't the comic weekly?
@@momentaryretrospect5967 It's daily.
.
I genuinely do not get why davis just casually put that in the comic. Like yea i get it was Halloween but thats some Garfield's 9 lives shit
i love how at 0:25 garfields framerate increases and his shadow behind him drags across the shadow of the doorframe
it feels like a garfields just Sat there while jon's away and we're watching sped up footage of it
the shot is so short but cleverly communicative. very awesome
Bro I didn't think of that, that's a really neat detail thanks for pointing it out for me!
my delight my dude! im stoked my observation resonated w so many people woah
this song came on shuffle and made me cry yesterday. i fuckin love animation :]
Me too, animation is like a secret code sometime and it's so fun to decode it.
I found this animation a few days ago and found the song on Spotify I don't think it'll be leaving my on repeat anytime soon lol.@@shuddabinswollode
And no wonder people resonated wit it quite the astute observation :]
absolutely! art as a whole is so natural for humans to be drawn to and to create, to listen and be heard. but theres something about the art of animation that i find so immersing..
hehhehe thankyou :)) i appreciate that!! i reckon it was my third or fourth rewatch when it clicked
Your art style is literal eye candy, dude! This is beautifully colored, shaded, and drawn. It's also nice to see Garf stuff like this. Nice job!
Ive watched this so many times. Its just that the animation is so aesthetically appealing!
I’m dying of heart disease
@@KathrynCfascinating
@@KathrynCfascinating
You've got such a sweet and careful way of expressing these emotions. Love this dearly.
aw thank you :'>
Ur art is style is so cool @Jacadamia
@@Jacadamia alr your most popular video whaa 📸🤨
I love this so much; Garfield may be a jerk but he's still a cat that wants to be seen and loved too 💗
Another great music video!
we all wanna go with jon every now and then... thanks Tap!!
you see, he can’t be an asshole cause at the end of the day, he is just a cat. Cats are annoying, but they also want to be loved too.
I agree
OH MY GOD THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN AN ANIMATION WITH THIS WONDERFUL SONG, AMAZING!!!!!
I love that some of the poses and facial expressions feel like theyre right out of the original comics, and some are really cute and stylized🥰Amazing all round!
For once Garfield is just an emotional orange car who simply wants Jon's attention and not a Junji Ito Lovecraftian mind breaking horror ending the universe. That's gotta be a milestone somehow.
I love orange cars.
🎶 you drive a fast car ... & I want a ticket to anywhere
he just wants his restaurant food
To be fair Junji Ito can draw normal cute cats. Just cats. The humans though they don't get spared they gotta suffer
I had an orange cat. Many people said that our dynamic reminded them of Jon and Garfield. I loved him more than the waking world. I had him as my iPhone wallpaper, he took up my memory on my phone as well with how many photos I had of him; I never used to take photos before I adopted him. This made me think about how he likely felt when seeing me leave the apartment. It made me so happy to see how excited he was to just see me come home, or wake up in the morning. I don’t think that’s something we in every day life get to experience with other people, them being ecstatic about us merely existing. It means the world to us when we see someone or something express how we mean the world to them. That’s beautiful. Maybe we should all be more like our pets and just show people how much they brighten up our worlds, by just simply being in it.
Damn it, that is so beautiful.
@@PopoTCG thank you! 😄
I love this comment :)) ❤
@@AnotherRandomChannel13 “And I love
YOU, random citizen!”
I lost my dogs a little while ago and it hurts... a lot. I don't think I'll ever stop missing them and just the thought that I'll never see their stupid drooly faces again makes my throat hurt. And I will never forget the looks on their faces when I would come home from school or college. One of them, Brutus, would lay on the window sill every day just before I got home and watch out front of the house for me to arrive - this was quite impressive considering he was a fat bastard of a bulldog haha. I regret a lot from when they were still here and I wish I could have done better for them, but reading this helped me remember that me just coming home and playing with them every day was enough for them and they loved me despite everything. Thank you stranger, I really needed that today.
I come back, once per day, bc this speak to my soul
...I'm obsessed with this animation and it turned out beautiful, keep it up :D
this feels like that one fever dream that's trying to tell you something important
Fax bro
“I know the feeling, I really do. The ground is sinking, right under you.”
Gets me every time.
this is my 10th time watching and its STILL GREAT.
Finally, someone created a masterpiece with this legend! YEEEEEAHHHH
The fact that the singer sounds a bit like Garfield makes this even better than it already is
especially at 0:28 lol
This Garfield Content - Truly a breath of fresh air! 👏
The idea, the song, the expressive animation, the way you draw Garfield, I love everything!
i absolutely LOVE the way you animated garfield in this video
This song is such a bop
Lol u did so good w the animation:3
i’m not even sure why i’m so sad but god this is gut wrenching for some reason.
the use of garfield specifically almost makes it feel like a metaphor for loss of childhood innocence to uncaring adults, or more specifically, the feeling of abandonment or betrayal by a trusted adult.
it evokes that feeling to me of being a child and dealing with emotions you can’t put to words or just don’t understand, and feeling so deeply angry and betrayed by those with power over you and/or those you love.
being forced at a young age to consider wether the people you hold dearest to you, particularly parents, actually have your best interests at heart, feeling like you might start having to protect yourself from the people you thought were there to protect you, and the utter overwhelming loneliness and feeling of powerlessness that comes with that.
begging to understand, but not being able to.
the attempts to self-comfort and eventual apathy towards those you used to love so much.
searching for an escape. crying out for help.
feeling like your entire world is being torn apart and the only thing you can do is stand there, in the doorway, in the dim light, and watch it all happen.
the adults are talking, and they’re talking about you, and you’re not allowed to say a word.
all you can do is press your ear to the door, and listen.
or maybe it’s funni animation about funni lagsangagsa cat singing funni song heehoo
It's the second one but damn
Fuk, way too close to home mate, way too close.
Me too
yeah i think its just a it’s funni animation about funni lagsangagsa cat singing funni song heehoo
Your dad left too huh
For Garfield, his day to day schedule never changes. He has no responsibilities whatsoever. So there’s no feasible reason he would hate Mondays for his own sake. Monday starts just after the weekend, which means after two days of Jon being around constantly he’s suddenly gone off for work presumably. Garfield doesn’t hate Mondays because he just doesn’t like Monday. He hates Mondays because he loves Jon and just doesn’t want to admit it
Even if we take that jon, as a cartoonist, works from home lile another comment said it could be that jon stays the most part of the day in his studio where garfield isn't allowed to enter
@@galacticpotato833He probably has some secret lasagna in there.
@@dejus_e YES, and there jon keeps his coffee stash
Well, there's also the fact that there was a running gag through several early Garfield strips where something bad would happen to Garfield on Mondays, such as getting a pie thrown at him.
damn, who knew recontextualizing a comic cat is actually kinda sad.
Bro this song is stuck in my head for good now🔥🔥
Hey! Just wanted to thank you for making this. It really brightened up my day.
damn
didn’t expect to see you here
😔
Whoa it’s Chip! How have you been?!
You’ve probably gotten a lot of comments about this already, but the way you drew Garfield is so much superior over his ‘9n model’ version. You didn’t just make him cuter, something about his expressions makes him far more visually appealing to watch.
✨*llevame contigo*✨
I love your art style. Something about it makes it so warm and cozy and welcoming. Plus i can relate to Garfield, scared of being alone and losing all the people i love. (also i like cartoons and Garfield is my all time favorite)
I also really like that this is normal Garfield AND something a cat would actually do. He wants to spend time with Jon but gets sad(and dramatic) when he leaves him alone!
If you ever make a full version of this, I hope it ends with Jon coming home and petting Garfield.
i've rewatched this so many times. you've given me a new song to obsess over and an animation that has left me a sense of melancholy
I feel that
I love seeing people use this song! I found it back in March and have loved it but not enough people talk about it. Great video!
Great animation keep doing great work 😁
This is so cute I love it! It feels like he is feeling lonely/jealous because Jon is giving more attention to his human lover than his pet. That's a very cat emotion. When my mom started seeing my dad, her Siamese basically threatened to kill him haha
Love this animation a lot
SO CUTE!!! MASTERFULLY CRAFTED JACA, this is a work of ART
This is a work of art mate. Be very proud of yourselves for real < 3
god I love the lighting and the arstyle also the poses are so damm good
0:16 Garfield’s hand movements have me rolling on the ground 😂
He’s Italian now:)
LLEVAME CONTIGO!!
WAHH I LOVE THIS
the sudden overly-emotional lipsync at the end really brought it together
would love to see more silly animations like thisbin the futuree
Bro this is my favorite animation
I've watched this animation around 17 times now. Its amazing! amazing art btw :)
The Little clip of Garfield standing while the light moves with the lyrics: "I know the feeling, I really do." Hit on a strange unknown level.
Seeing jon succeed in something makes Garfield sad
How fitting
And Garfield just wanna come to ruin it lol
i think he just wants Jon's attention, as every cat does from their owner
ye
well that's not what the lyrics are conveying at all really
Damn, you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn even if you tried. The point of the song's lyrics were right there, man. They were right. Fucking. There. And you missed the point entirely.
Ive lost count of how many times I watched this video, its amazing!
youtube recommended me this and you have no idea how much i love it, i'm obsessed with how you draw garfield oh my god
I was very close to have a panic attack when I found this animation. The beautiful song mixed with the expressive animation made me feel heard for a moment. Right now I'm in a point in my life where "the ground is skinking under me". But finding this video (and then listening the full song) gave me a chance to breathe and get more calm.
Thank you so much for making it. It saved me from a very bad moment.
Praying for you🙏🏻🙏🏻
Keep going my friend, you’ve got this!! I love you, and I’m sure there are others out there who to do as well. Hard times make us stronger, and if you’re still here you still have a purpose I promise you. There is a God who loves you as well, and I wish you all the best.🫶🏻🫶🏻💗💗💗
stay safe out there
The artist, JW Francis, never fails to put me in a good mood no matter how I feel. Dream house is absolutely stacked with happy dance songs!
It's the opposite for me, stuff like this is usually the things that cause panic attacks lol
This is genuinely so beautiful and really describes the feeling of being forgotten
I've been watching this and listening to the song in repeat and finding this, it's really good
I LOVE THIS SONG ARTIST IM SO HAPPY HES GETTING SOME REAL RECOGNITION NO WAY
JW Francis is CRIMINALLY underrated. We share a similar joy is high ART!!
@@abrahamlincoln86 yes bro
Just saw him live, bought the t-shirt! Literally: he has a t-shirt based on this video! He signed it for me and everything!
I love how Garfield is being such a melodramatic sassy feline right now. So in his feelings. This is kinda in line with some of his behavior when he’s not pretending he doesn’t give a shit. On top of that he doesn’t turn into this primordial being. It’s just very comforting, realistic, VHS filter and actually some good multimedia seeming animation.
This is beautiful, it is animated so well, I love everything about the movement! This totally feels like something that'll blow up and end up being recommended randomly for years! I sure hope so
LLEVAME CONTIGO 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
this appears in my recommended like 50 billion times a day and i make sure to watch it every time
Oh from the outside this is 100% Garfield doing the “sad cat wail of wanting attention”- 10/10 nice work, it’s nice to see Garfield just acting like an affectionate housecat-
It reminds me of the episode of "Garfield & Friends" where it's titled "Getting Attention Garfield"
that final moment, it was ADORABLE!!! :D
God i keep coming back to this animation its GREAT
Actually! This is amazing how they make Garfield!!:)
@@JohnStudios79 the animation style is so niceeeee to look at i cant
the animation + the vocals just puts it up there no my list, wish there was a full version
Finally, the beautifully animated emotional Garfield content we all needed in our lives!
I know it's already been said but this is a really refreshing take on Garfield visually and tonally (yes I know it's a pre-existing song). Would love to see something like this in an official context.
genuinely one of the best garfield animations i have ever seen.
Love this, thanks for bringing a little joy into my life today
You gotta love how Garf's design blends into the darkness growing around him~ And at 0:29 this cascade of magenta and teal really blends in with the rest of the video 😮
Bless this VHS Garfield and math rock guitar 🙏
God, it really works that JW's voice actually sounds a lot like Garfield from the old cartoon.
this video deserves at least 10 billion more views
this has become my #1 comfort video, I come back every time I feel sad ;w;
LOVE the way u draw garfield. so very cute and so very sad. beautifully animated and the aesthetic fits the song perfectly. so cool how you actually had varying levels of cartoonish-ness (bigger hands, shorter arms, bigger eyes, etc.) for him in different scenes so that he fit the feeling better, without breaking the cohesion of the animation. super impressive. keep it up!
I found this video I think a month ago or something? I've literally watched it at least once a day since. It's my favorite video. I've shown it to everyone in my house. I love your animation and colors. The emotion in the video- everything is so beautiful and satisfying to watch. It makes me feel something- especially as a huge garfield fan- Thank you for this contribution to the world. It makes my day everyday.
im obsessed, i can't stop watching this video!!! 😭
This animation makes we want to cry a river for no reason
Besides that good job on the animation!
At least leave Garfield a nice lasagna if you won't take him with you, Jon :< Or a stack of lasagnas... Or was a stack of lasagna just a single lasagna?
_Time to start a lasagna debate._
Anyways, delightful animation work, Jacadamia!
That Latias would want the Lasagna
This video is honestly incredible, this style is so interesting and looks fantastic mixed with the Garfield story it's honestly amazing, really amazing.
This makes my feelers feel feelings all new
I interpreted this as Garfield having separation anxiety. Pets can recognize our routines when we get ready to leave the house, and start to act anxious, or cry out. Poor kitty Garfield 😔
i love this interpretation
