Imagine Lin Manuel Miranda being such a fan of you that he takes the time out of his incredibly busy life to write a “We Didn’t Start the Fire” parody that is entirely references to your podcast like what a life to lead
He referenced mbmbam twice in Hamilton, even! Once in Cabinet Battle 2: “Should we honor our treaty, King Louis’ head? ‘Uh, do whatever you want, I’m super dead!’” And in We Know: “I don’t have to tell you anything at all! Unless... / Unless?”
We live in a universe where people saw Lin Manuel Maranda and said "oh yeah, that makes sense" but lost their minds when Matt Doyle showed up I'm happy to be here
"If I had a nickel for every time I cried at a Tony award winner covering a Billy Joel song to open a podcast, I'd have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice."
the mcelroy brothers managed to get a Tony winning, Academy Award nominated singer/actor/songwriter to open for their live show about giving bad advice... this is amazing
no it gets better. a tony winning, academy award nominated singer/actor/ songwriter loved the mcelroy brothers so much that he put inspiration from them in a tony winning musical
This just FLOODED me with wild emotion. Mbmbam was such a bright spot in the middle of shitty, terrifying college days. I never realized how much I owe them for helping me get through a lot
You must have been sitting right in front of my friend and me! I can here us at the Matt Doyle part (1:33) cora- iT’S MATT DOYLE me- WHO’S MATT DOYLE? cora- I DON’T KNOW (i only worked up the nerve to record halfway through the song :/)
Fandoms huzzah be honest with yourself, you can’t fight the homestuck is engraved into all our minds with the same familiarity of our own god damn names
I love the fact that griffin is literally taking an iPhone video because he is still in disbelief that this is his life now and that's honestly so good and pure and humble.
@@graypetcoyle a long while ago, the brothers found a yahoo question asking what some good warrior cat names were, and they were baffled by the concept of a warrior cat. One of the suggestions was Bramblepelt, I think they even named the mbmbam episode Bramblepelt, It was pretty funny. (It would be amazing if lin knew what warriors was though haha)
I don't think so, but Justin did say how Lin was planning on surprising them with a special guest and right before the show, Justin saw him in the hallway and thought "... is that Matt Doyle?"
im gonna be honest i had never heard We Didn’t Start The Fire before this and only listened to You Can’t Stop The Homestuck (i didnt know the latter was based on the former) so i got whiplash
i love lin and the boys this was such a nice surprise. i listen to mbmbam when i’m trying to sleep but i just couldn’t sleep during this episode because i was just so giddy about lin and the boys
I love this... cause I sorta found Mbmbam working backward from some random YT suggestion... and listened to this when it came out... but only understood SOME of the references... and as I have been working through the podcast coming back and listening again and having the captain america I understood that reference all over again is a bunch of fun.
This is amazing. I must admit some mild disappointment that he didn't work SHRIMP HEAVEN NOW into it, but 'play with me in this space' was pretty good so I guess I'll live.
I'm not Americanso Lins's accent makes it a bit tricky to decipher each word. The awesome part is that I get to listen repeatedly, catch new words & dissolve into giggles again & again. Thank you Lin😊
Wow, I had never seen this. It’s so sweet and kind of surreal. And this song is super creative, accurate, good, and draws you in. I know that shouldn’t surprise me with Lin, but still.
Three minutes of legend Lin Manuel Miranda singing (plus Matt Doyle) all leading up to these three fucking goobers walking out. This was a wild opening

And then just DOES your opening act whenever you're in town?

in all fairness, they’re childhood friends! it’s not so much that he’s a fan of MBMBAM as he is a fan of the family!
We live in a universe where people saw Lin Manuel Maranda and said "oh yeah, that makes sense" but lost their minds when Matt Doyle showed up
I'm happy to be here
FULL CIRCLE
Is that Matt Doyle!?!
Lin's friendship with the McElroys continues to be a fever dream I hope I never wake up from
I think this is how all of us, and probably all four of them, all feel about it as well.
THE GRIFFIN VOICE AT "PLAY WITH ME IN THIS SPACE"
Yes!
what about “a LITTLE different” i lost my shit
play with meeeeeeee
To the person who screamed "Yes" after Garfield Monstrosity....we heard that
we FELT that.
I have literally never cried harder at a Tony award winners cover of a billy Joel song for a podcast before
that's quite specific but okay.
Pepper eater Live Stream I also cried.
"If I had a nickel for every time I cried at a Tony award winner covering a Billy Joel song to open a podcast, I'd have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice."
@@TapdotWater Wait what was the other one!
the mcelroy brothers managed to get a Tony winning, Academy Award nominated singer/actor/songwriter to open for their live show about giving bad advice... this is amazing
Lmao it's so wild to me that he's just,,, he's their good friend. Like, these goof boys are friends with Lin Manuel Miranda. It's So Great.
no it gets better. a tony winning, academy award nominated singer/actor/ songwriter loved the mcelroy brothers so much that he put inspiration from them in a tony winning musical
Imagine THE Lin Manuel OPENING for you WHAT
watching him struggle with a chuckle at extreme restraints was a highlight
Agreed. i lovehim laughing at his own rhyme of patron saints and extreme restraints, he tries to remain professional but the words are too strong :D
Yes hands down my favorite part.
underrated part of this video is that Lin is dressed like billy joel in the we didn't start the fire music video
It’s really cool to see the brothers giving an opportunity to these smaller artists. I hope this Lin kid does something big one day.
I Know Right? He has talent, he should write a musical or something.
3 strange brothers made a podcast and look at them now...
I like the part where not even lin manuel miranda knows the words to it's a departure past the third line
it's "hey good girls, if you wanna, just say 'hey I wanna'"
This just FLOODED me with wild emotion. Mbmbam was such a bright spot in the middle of shitty, terrifying college days. I never realized how much I owe them for helping me get through a lot
You must have been sitting right in front of my friend and me! I can here us at the Matt Doyle part (1:33)
cora- iT’S MATT DOYLE
me- WHO’S MATT DOYLE?
cora- I DON’T KNOW
(i only worked up the nerve to record halfway through the song :/)
Dingo Delusions I can hear you and I’m so glad that was caught on tape
FINALLY SONETHING TO KNOCK YOU CANT FIGHT THE HOMESTUCK OTTA MY MIND
bold of you to assume anything can remove "john egbert rose lalonde ascend descend rise up abscond" from your mind
Fandoms huzzah be honest with yourself, you can’t fight the homestuck is engraved into all our minds with the same familiarity of our own god damn names
*Heir and Knight, Witch and Seer **_YOU CAN'T OUTRUN WHAT'S ALREADY HERE_*
Yeah there’s no way that one is leaving my brain any time soon, not with the hours I put into memorizing it when I was 15 lmao
I hadn’t heard that song since like 2014 and then I heard this on the episode and I got flashbacks.
He's the coolest groupie ever. Those rhyming skills are amazing
This was truly awesome to see.
Petition for this to be the new intro to MBMBaM.
Feltrix YES
You would be so quick to disregard (It’s A) Departure like that? Come on, man. Don’t harsh my mann John Roderick like that.
I have nothing against John Roderick and the Long Winters, but this... this is golden and glorious.
well 😳 it’s fully possible now
@@mephostopheles3752 hehehe, this aged poorly didn't it?
I love the fact that griffin is literally taking an iPhone video because he is still in disbelief that this is his life now and that's honestly so good and pure and humble.
The one time where it's okay to record at a Mbmbam show!
Thank you for cutting before the boys talk - great job 👋
👋👋
@@sethescope Oh WOW - I feel like a fake fan now! Thanks, I edited it.
@@sethescope thank you, Seth
i can't believe lin manuel miranda wrote a parody of "you can't fight the homestuck"
Ikr
So did that guy Billy Joel
Such unoriginality
Bless you for recording this. (Holy shit it's Matt Doyle)
I love how Griffin's recording like he's not part of the main show
I just have one question. Iiiiiiisss that Matt Doyle though?
Jeevesie1988 would you say that’s Matt Doyle?
Matt Doyle, maybe Matt Doyle?!
Probably Matt Doyle??
Well, he's just like Matt!
It was,,,,,, Matt Doyle. the energy in there went WILD
WARRIOR CATS
BRAMBLEPELT
YowlingYeen hearing Lin Manuel Miranda say Bramblepelt is truly an experience
artistic Aperture he had the best arc
Im so glad..
I’m pretty sure Lin actually looked up Warriors characters (or maybe has pre-existing knowlage), because BramblePelt is a real cat in those books
@@graypetcoyle a long while ago, the brothers found a yahoo question asking what some good warrior cat names were, and they were baffled by the concept of a warrior cat. One of the suggestions was Bramblepelt, I think they even named the mbmbam episode Bramblepelt, It was pretty funny. (It would be amazing if lin knew what warriors was though haha)
There are those who understand what it’s like to have a “We Didn’t Start the Fire” parody tribute to something they enjoy. It’s nice in a way
When Matt Doyle came out I really thought I was hallucinating
I can't believe this was my first mbmbam live! I had awful seats but STILL!
Imagine the bodily visceral reaction of every homestuck in the audience
Where they go "Oh, he did a parody of We Didn't Start the Fire also?"
I really hope after Griffin sat down he just said "Holy Shit, was that Matt Doyle??"
I don't think so, but Justin did say how Lin was planning on surprising them with a special guest and right before the show, Justin saw him in the hallway and thought "... is that Matt Doyle?"
I can't stop smiling at this.
Hi why am I gonna cry?
Me too - and it's been WEEKS!
im gonna be honest i had never heard We Didn’t Start The Fire before this and only listened to You Can’t Stop The Homestuck (i didnt know the latter was based on the former) so i got whiplash
F UCK ARE YOU SERIOUS
@@nahyutarightsactivistim 3 years late to this but yeah i was 100% serious
I love how the recommended video immediately after this is a video of Lin playing his masterpiece at the White House.
i love lin and the boys this was such a nice surprise. i listen to mbmbam when i’m trying to sleep but i just couldn’t sleep during this episode because i was just so giddy about lin and the boys
I like to think Lin Manuel is some kind of demigod come to bless us humble humans with his brilliant music
If anyone's wondering, this is from Episode 482 (Big Stitch Energy).
Is that.... It's Matt Doyle!
Continues to be the best “We didn’t start the fire” parody and it’s not even fuckin close
Lin managed to make one of the biggest book fandoms go absolutely feral with just a few words which is completely feasible for him honestly
Thank you so much for capturing this majestic moment in history.
This was my first ever live show and I just about lost my mind when Lin came out
Had to come back to this after Lin's guest-pert segment on MBMBAM 516. What a man
this made me cry from nostalgia and happiness.
I love this... cause I sorta found Mbmbam working backward from some random YT suggestion... and listened to this when it came out... but only understood SOME of the references... and as I have been working through the podcast coming back and listening again and having the captain america I understood that reference all over again is a bunch of fun.
this was maybe the highest point in my life
can you imagine rolling up to a podcast live show n getting to see actual real life lmm
Paul was VERY adamant that no video recordings were allowed!!!! (but it's ok I took one toooooo)
this is my favorite parody of "you can't fight the homestuck"
I opened the most recent episode not knowing anything about this, and it was honestly the best few minutes of my life
Sometimes you go to a MBMBAM show and Lin Manuel is just fuckin there 😂😂
How are these people real? How do they exist? How are we this blessed to have them on our plane of existence?
Thanks for sharing this! I just clapped at Matt Doyle in my living room 😅
THANK YOU for uploading this, I'll finally see what Matt Doyle looks like
this was the best hype up in the history of hype ups
I need a lyrics video of this *yesterday*
This is amazing. I must admit some mild disappointment that he didn't work SHRIMP HEAVEN NOW into it, but 'play with me in this space' was pretty good so I guess I'll live.
This is still my favorite fever dream.
When i got first into MBMBAM i listened to this and was sad i didn’t get the references so every so often I come back and see how many I can get
lin: [playing intro]
me: oh nice
lin: j
me:
Thank you so much for posting! Saw Lin's tweet, but didn't know if it was recorded. Yay! 👋👋 ❤️❤️
john egbert rose lalonde ascend descend rise up abscond

WE NEED AN OFFICIAL RELEASE
I'm not Americanso Lins's accent makes it a bit tricky to decipher each word. The awesome part is that I get to listen repeatedly, catch new words & dissolve into giggles again & again. Thank you Lin😊
this video is my life now thank you for recording it
hey guys....I think that was Matt Doyle.
FINALLY I FOUND A VIDEO OF IT THIS WAS THE GREATEST FUCKING NIGHT OF MY LIFE
this makes me tear up every time
I'll never understand that the McElboys are actual people and not just godlike beings
LIN I will Venmo you real dollars to make a studio version of this
What absolutely crazy fucking energy.
imagine getting to see this live
My best friend and I were at this show and you can actually hear us losing our minds throughout the song.
Why is griffins phone the same colour as his pants
Thank you much for recording this!
Thank you so much for sharing this. It's made my Monday way better!
I really want a high quality audio recording of this song.
I'll never be able to visit a live show, so thank you so much for recording this.
I’m so happy that I was here!!! This was so much fun!
Wow, I had never seen this. It’s so sweet and kind of surreal. And this song is super creative, accurate, good, and draws you in. I know that shouldn’t surprise me with Lin, but still.
MBMBAM: The Musical by Lin Manuel Miranda, coming to Disney+ in 2021
I was there!
how do you feel knowing that you were present at a nationally historic moment?
@@goonsdirge3464 event few hours I kinda just yell "I SAW LIN MANUEL MIRANDA"
thank you so much for posting this I got a video but its an awful video you are my lifesaver
Three minutes of legend Lin Manuel Miranda singing (plus Matt Doyle) all leading up to these three fucking goobers walking out. This was a wild opening
I don’t think anything will ever make me as happy ever again
the nature of humanity is every so often someone accidentally invents homestuck again
I can only assume you think this a cover of You can’t fight the homestuck
@@lefttac3541 no it just has the EXACT same energy as you cant fight the homestuck
This is goddamn beautiful - a treasure
The best thing is coming back to this song after some time of being exposed to McElroy content and catching more and more of the lyrics
I've never been sadder to not be at a love show 😂
Thank you for putting up video of this masterpiece
And now to patiently await an animated version
wish i was in the room where it happened... no way i could get tickets to a mbmbam show with lin in it.. unless..?
any other homestucks have a heart attack
buzzing Royalty oh definitely. when lin started in at the beginning immediately i was like 👀👀👀
Bethany Douglass every day I have to remind myself that kylie henke didn’t write that sweet tune herself
Not to be jealous, but where was this at the Pittsburgh show? We got 100 KFC donut sandwiches...
Aaaa thank you for posting this! My video just looked like white spots lmao
I made out around two words amidst all the cheering. Pretty solid recorded live show wise.
Life goal is to understand every single goof reference
i need an official recording of this please and thank you, PLEASE someone cover this!
i have done it on my yoube channel
Lin Manuel Miranda doing Griffin’s voice SENT ME 1:18
my heart is so happy
what do you mean this isnt the performance lin got a tony for?
wish i coulda been in the room where it happened
