I.Love.This.Song.

Tf happend....

I wanted to sing this in my 7th grade choir concert....



My teacher said no...





Never said I can't in the middle of the mall with friends though~

girls
i like girls

The most sexist song but then allmost everything by emilie autumn is victorian and sexism is quite victorian

Hazbin Hotel brought me here.

When she says protect your child sir, don't you just see a lobotomized traumatized women gently reaching out to a small child after being robbed of her own and a man hurriedly getting in between them and with a disgusted look on his face rushing the child away.
Don't you just see the girl who had madness "thrust upon her" waking up screaming from night terrors of something she wish she could forget. There are women in institutions today living lives not so different

Do you draw at all? You should consider making an animatic for this if you do, you've got some good ideas for visuals.

@Ruth Nield haha thanks, I wish I had the time to draw again i am a stay at home mother but thank you for saying this I am very depressed maybe I would maybe I would

One of the best. ❤

😆🎶❤

Amazing poetry... Stunned

One of my favourite songs of all time, it's so powerful and satirical

I feel like one of those girls

man-hating cunt

It's Satire on the Victorian Age , it's not supposed to be taking seriously

If you don't like her music, why are you listening to it?

Muly life is this song

Victorian era thinking about women.

like the music but I hate the smug feminist sentiment too bad there is no instrumental version :(

It's a Satire on the Victorian Age , it's not supposed to be taking seriously

This is a whole ass Broadway production in one song

I can smell the social commentary mixed with satire. I love it.

she is perfect

Me and my wife made a person cry we were playing twins In a dnd game who are a theif and a bard and we got caught stealing something and we used this song as a distraction

Can I ask what fonts you used? <3

When she said “a penny more” was that supposed to be a reference to the song “A penny for a tale” from the movie she played in The Devil’s Carnival?

probably

Damn, Emilie Autumn can really make you question yourself as a man. I consider myself to be a decent person that treats women as equals, but so much has been wrong in the past. So much is wrong today still. The world I live in is one where women get hurt and abused every day just because it can be done.
It‘s a crime. Yeah, no f*ing kidding.

Great song! A bit annoyed she used the word 'lunacy' as an example of the feminine being linguistically tied to the idea of mental illness (I mean 'lunacy' does have feminine implications but only to a debatable degree) - when the word 'hysteria' literally means disease of the womb.

It's a satirical song about the Victorian women's mental illness sanitariums

The point was that words like "lunatic" and "lunacy" come from "luna", meaning moon, and women have been conceptually tied to the moon forEVER.

That’s the whole god damn point.

Half price after... 4’o clock? :0

No, this song is NOT supposed to be taken seriously. I see a lot of girls on EA's songs saying that they suffer from mental illness and find her songs hilarious. I'm inclined to agree. I have severe depression, BPD and schizophrenia, and I'm chronically suicidal. I've been institutionalised three times, and Emilie's songs really cheer me up. The phrase "if you can't laugh, what can you do?" is so very true. If Emilie didn't make these girls (and boys) laugh, I'm quite sure a good proportion of them would be worse off than they are now.

Also, the line in 'Thank God I'm Pretty'; "It's lucky I hate to be taken seriously" proves that this is all satire, and if people don't get the joke, then there's really no hope for them to ever have anything other than a dull sense of humour.

On a side note, there really is a bloody pill for everything nowadays. xD

In the Victorian times this literally happened. Women were committed for being all of the things mentioned in the song, and people went to look at them like they were zoos.

This is one of those songs that's so much enjoyable live

They should have casted EA as Elsa Mars for AHS : Freakshow.
(even though I love Jessica Lange from the bottom of my hollow heart)

Me, introducing my OCs like...

Anybody have there opinions on what this song is about

It's about how in the Victorian era women would be thrown in asylums for just about anything, and they were treated like circus freaks. People were allowed to feed them and usually men would visit and use them since it was far cheaper than going to a whorehouse

Lesbiating for the win

THERES A BLOODY PILL FOR EVERYTHING NOWADAAAAAYS

I showed this to my mom and when the part about keeping your hair uncut played she looked at me and laughed because I have a pixie cut

Oh dear how outrageous! How ever shall you find a proper husband now! D:

(jk ;D)

anyone else have the mental image of a victorian business lady showing a group of people around a mental asylum/burlesque house

"WINK WINK"

Also it's kind of weird to think that back then i would have been one of the girls put into a mental institution because i like other girls

One of my favorite things about Emilie is that she isn't afraid to show her stuff as a talented composer and top-notch lyricist, both of which are still very sexist fields unfortunately. And I've always loved her satyrical elements. Thank God I'm Pretty is another great example of that.

I don't really think she's commenting on society at large but how mental health was actually handled back then. The questions asked to the guide were actually real beliefs.

shared psfour people still believe that stuff. Look up black pigeon speaks “how women are destroying the West” or literally anything by rebel media.

dude the song is a reflection on Victorian Era mental illness. She even wrote a book featuring these things, if I recall.

The sarcasm is strong in this song and I love it. I especially love the ending part where it's listing all of the 'sins' women have been criticized for for centuries, it's so accurate.

The talent is strong in this one

Reminds me of alois trancy. Or Juuzou.... strangely, neither of them are girls!

Sometimes you uncover the most unsual things letting random playlists go... :p

I wonder where the singer gets the inspiration for her lyrics, does anyone know?

simplemente GENIAL

Puts on roller skates and sings this through my school XDD

this song somehow reminds me of orange is the new black hahaha

There's a bloody pill for everything!

This was written in an asylum. Had to be.

Whatever happened to this brilliant artist? I see no concert dates.

Shes working on this thing called Asylum Musical

She had several jaw surgeries. And recorded an audiobook for the Asylum For Wayward Victorian Girls. She also released another album.

If I hear one more thing about Harley Quinn people are going to get hurt

J. Yousef Rousseau I loooooooooooooooooooooove~ Harley Quinn ❤💙

J. Yousef Rousseau Agreed

Harley Quinn something something.

@Horror Fanatic but the song is not about her .

🥃🎩 we can tag team this

between this and Voltaire's cathouse tragedy i am totally amazed

my favourite song of her

I only just noticed, that in this video the letter h is in goth lower letter and part upper letter, and the word tight is spelled thight is this done deliberately or is done, by accident.

I meant both, not goth.

Patrick Liam Berry The maker of the video may not be a native English speaker.

@David Pavlas yes I know that hence why I was pointing it out, it is possible to edit the mistake as even I am capable of making mistakes and I am a native english speaker.

My girlfriend introduced me to this and told me that apparently she wrote this while she was in an insane asylum. So yeah, this song is very much inspired.

XLBrand they’re called mental hospitals.

beautiful, well done, and shareable!

"There's a bloody pill for eveything nowadays!"

Oh my D.O.G.!!! I am a hard, extreme metaller ! Am I now being manipulated to start liking musicals /music hall stuff? Hey -hey -help! If I do, it's Emilie Autumns' fault!!!Qui pourrait m'aider?No,no,nooooo ....

песня супер

This reminds me of a fanfic I read. It was based off Nellie Bly when she went to an asylum

I found Emilie through once of my favorite movies The Devils Carnival, and this song would fit right in there! Excited to hear her sing more songs like are in the movie. <3

This song is positively HYSTERICAL!
(tee hee... ;P)

Literally why has Emilie not made a Broadway show yet.

She's releasing one based from her book

@Ace in Spades Terrance Zdunich?! As in the guy who was in Repo: The Genetic Opera?!

@V St.-R X Yes he was the one that wrote that as well and did the comic parts

@V St.-R X as in the guy who wrote and acted in repo, and American murder song, yes

Wait she's in devil as carnival!! Adding that to the list of reasons I need to watch that movie!!

Damn women roasted. ON FIRE <3

Holy shit, this is great stuff..

This song reminds me of "be our guest" from beauty and the beast. 😂😂😂

THANKS ! Couldn't find what it remind me off ! x)

I hope they include this song in Suicide Squad.. Cause this seems like some Harley Quinn kinda music

that wont save the fact that the actor very poorly portrays her.

So true

It reminded me of Mary popping some how

@Dream Chaser i still think i was right.

You should have been on beokon yesterday!

The sarcasm is strong

OOPS sent the comment out twice my bad 😅 HaHaHa *rubs the back of my head*HaHa

This sounds like something out of Sweeney Todd or Devils Carnival possible Repo Man Genetic Opera

This sounds like something out of Sweeney Todd or Devils Carnival possible Repo Man Genetic Opera

Repo: The Genetic Opera*

Emilie Autumn has been in the business for years. Should give her a look-up. Her music has resurfaced due to her role in Devil's Carnival. And the gentlemen who created that show also did her Fight Like A Girl music video. Her first to my knowledge.

I've never been a fan of Emilie Autumn's music (which is a shame really because I absolutely love her as Painted Doll) but I like this song a lot

I do so love freak show cabaret music.

This is for all those girls who were diagnosed with hysteria back in the day

Not everyone is able to artistically weave brilliance using sardonicism as a medium.

i have been looking for this song for FUCKING YEARS

I'm getting some Harley Quinn vibes from this song

Bewaretheshoe H beokon yesterday had it with H.Q. played by Borivoje

I'm a girl who has struggled with mental illness, suicidal thoughts and actions, and depression. I still find this extremely funny (:

ThatCrazyKid that’s the point

I didn't mean to come here. 0.0
I was trying to get to Girls Girls Girls by Got7.
I don't regret this at all.
Very catchy. ~•-•

+Jonghyun's # 1 Hoe
hello fellow IGOT7 XD I've known this song for awhile and Got7's title for their song brought me back here

Hello fellow kpoppers ;) and same I really love this song!

Salem French I was trying to get to mötley crü not complaining in the slightest

omg ... What an epic song ...

+Sassy Meatball your name is epic

Fucking love this song.

This song is the greatest

I love how sarcastic this song is

this sounds like something out of movies like repo or Sweeney todd

Repo had nowhere near as good of music as this.

She actually played a part in the spinoff of Repo.

+prettyhairgirl2001 Well she did work with the creators in their online project "Devil's Carnival" her character is called The Painted Doll.

+Cayla Reise Devils carnival thought this song was part of the devil`s carnviles

I love how she makes light at the stigma of women who have suffered (and ENJOYED) a mental disorder. And bringing to light things people don't see........

GoddessofSpring25 Dude. We don't enjoy it. The brain is an organ, and it can get sick- that's what things like depression, anxiety and other disorders are. Though yes, the point of the song was to satire mistreatment of the mentally ill.

I don't enjoy having severe anxiety or autism or ADHD or ADD or Aspergers
I haven't been diagnosed with depression cuz i don't tell my doctors everything but if they knew i'd be in an asylum
Oh and this song is sarcastic, not meant to be taken seriously.

‘Enjoyed’- you missed the point of the song completely. Imagine being that stupid

Pure insanity, if watched at 2x speed.

+Justin B. Its even creepier at 0.5 speed.

I wonder if Harley Quinn would like to sing this...

It would be so great !!! The voice of Harley Quinn would make it even funnier !!

The style is for Harley but not this song

As a girl who suffers from depression, ocd and anxiety, This makes me laugh like HELL!
"There's a pill for everything nowadays!" Which made me giggle, cause its fucking true!
Honestly to anyone who gets BUTTHURT by this song just think, Its a sexist and discriminatory song MADE TO BE A JOKE
i mean, come on as a mentally ill girl i could've took this SO PERSONALLY.
But i didn't, because its a JOKE.
So chill out and enjoy the music.

I sometimes believe that people who get offended by a joke aren't even those who supposed to be offended.

Yeah I agree this makes me laugh which is better than violent mood swings and intense sobbing.

Also ya'll this song is about how people REALLY did treat back in the day. "Hysteria" was a blanket term used to incarcerate women who they felt acted "crazy" and blamed their reproductive organs as the reason they were "prone to sickness."

A song who suffered from hell itself i am proud to be insane.

@LoveBerry preach it baby

Man I love this song!

listened to this about 100 times and keep going x.x

I feel like this song should be in the Suckerpunch sound track some where

@Saven Rose
I FOUND YOU

@Eyeless Gentleman Hey foolio you should know me by now i did comment on your vids i think

anyone come from that one animash?

This needs to be in the "Sucker Punch: The Musical."

OMG THEY MADE A MUSICAL?! #LOVEISTHETHING4ME

Musical masterpiece!

The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls: The Musical

+Lovely Lies I would watch the shit out of that!

Cinnameon didnt she say she was thinking about seriously writing that?

@Val Lalonde yep
