Hello! I've been seeing a lot of polls in the tags asking people's favorite songs from Hatchetfield, but it got me thinking whether if a specific option was absent what people might jump to next. What songs are most common to be 2nd or even 3rd favorites rather than all time favorites?

So, I wanted to conduct a more thorough survey of everything (all 3 musicals, both seasons of Nightmare Time, and the Workin' Boys short) plus a couple bonus questions.

If you haven't seen something, don't stress out either. There will also be options to mark that you haven't seen something.

After a week or so I'll eventually make a follow up post with my findings :)

If any of y'all could also share this post around for more responses, that'd be pretty cool, but absolutely no pressure!

#starkid #hatchetfield #tgwdlm #npmd #the guy who didn't like musicals #black friday #nerdy prudes must die #nightmare time #happi asks #actually super curious how/what may correlate w/ people's takes on the songs #the only required questions are the rankings and that's it. you can just do that for minimal effort but the other stuff would be helpful to #to learn abt #but yeah! :) idk surveys. yippee

before I sleep, here is my definitive ranking on all the NPMD songs and some rambles on why I placed them there - also the ranking is based on how much I vibe with them (music production and lyricism have different rankings)

1. Hatchet Town (aka the hatchetfield trilogy theme song like this tune perfectly encapsulates the chaos Hatchetfield has to go through with every Starkid project pos-2018 and I love it - kinda wish it was a number that is more integrated with the plot with the kids tho BUT I REALLY DID LIKE that this melody was quite prominent in the other songs too)

2. High School is Killing Me (I've watched many teen centered musicals and believe me when I say that this song is one of, if not, the best introduction numbers out there for this genre - also it's a really great opening hook for a show)

3. Nerdy Prudes Must Die (FUCKING AMAZING HONESTLY - amazing way to REALLY re-establish a villain back from the dead and to establish the main theme for the nerds here: "I'm Not A Loser" (tho i fucking wish that motif was used a bit more))

4. Just For Once (everyone cheer for Lauren Lopez flexing not just her high tier soprano skills, but also how amazing of a fucking actor she can be like the concept of this song is quite layered and to pull it off both comedically and emphatically takes great lyrical and acting prowess)

5. The Summoning (a well-anticipated onstage introduction to all 5 of the LiB that balances out befuddling neon-entertainment with genuine fucking menace)

7. Cool As I Think I Am Reprise (A FUCKING GENIUS REPRISE I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH HOW COOL I FIND THEM RECONTEXTUALIZING THE OG SONG AND IF I LOVED YOU TO FIT THE SITUATION AND BOTH OF THE CHARACTERS GROWTH. LIKE IN TERMS OF THEMATIC IMPLICATIONS WITH CHARQCTER DEVELOPMENT, THIS SONG AND ITS SCENE WOULD BE THE TOP)

6. If I Loved You (I think this song could be a bit more honestly like I know how much Starkid has explored Steph and Pete's relationship in their other projects and I was really hoping that they would have it more portrayed here - however the song is a bop nonetheless and it matches neatly with their themes and the harmonies are top tier. I placed this higher than the next just due to my personal bias like I really do like the song)

8. Dirty Dudes Must Die (A GREAT TWIST THAT MAKES ME WANT ANOTHER MUSICAL ABOUT GRACE CHASITY'S DERANGED SELF - also the new context of the song Grace is reprising here makes her a villain even scarier than MAX of all people but that's just me)

9. Literal Monster (A very catchy beat and well structured song that provides a good introduction to a jock-bully with the god complex. also kinda foreshadowing to nerdy prudes must die)

10. Cool As I Think I Am (the instrumentation reminded me of Dear Evan Hansen ngl fjsjd but it really does sound like an I-Want song from a teen-musical which is of course what they are going for - it sounds very nice and earnest though and I loved how it was utilised in the reprise. However I still fucking wish that the I'm Not A Loser motif was used more)

11. Dirty Girl (look I'm sorry for ranking this quite low on the list but like there is no fucking way I'm using this as bait to lure other people in like they'd be scared away I'm sorry fjdjs BUT I love how Will and Angela perform this though like top tier starkid performances ever - its not just what I would listen to on repeat personally jgjdjs)

12. Go Go Nighthawks! (This one gets plus points because of FUCK YOU CLIVESDALE GO GET FUCKED. otherwise its nice and cheery and perfectly shows how happy everyone is without Max but um I kinda wish it could be a bit more especially in terms of showing how happy the other nerds are now that Max is gone but that's just me)

13. Bully The Bully + Bury The Bully (Look I couldn't decide which was better like they both are the same melodies so like gjxjs these two are cute though and I liked seeing the 5 kids bonding in Bully The Bully since we don't get that many scenes with them)

14. The Best Of You (the pop-punk happy number is a staple of teen-centered musicals and it does really sound nice - just isn't that much of a standout compared to the others.)

#also for the best of you i have like a bone to pick with that one as much as i find it a fun song #but that is once again a rambly critique on how steph was utilized in the show sO WE'LL SAVE THAT BONE FOR ANOTHER DAY #but yea that's my NPMD ranking #the music prod here is on another level honestly #like they stepped up their game here #as for lyricism hmm given the genre it's more or less as I expected - i like it but there are some parts where i expected more #but they did a good job in having nuance in some of their songs like Nerdy Prudes Must Die and Just For Once like those r GOOD DEEP DIVES #hmmm maybe i'll do a full review soon of NPMD to just consolidate all my critiquey rambles #rn it's sittiing at a score of 8.5/10 #and is probably my top 3 fav starkid musical of all time - tgwdlm and twisted are top 2 and 1 #(i cant say much about black friday yet cause i havent watched it but um i have a feeling it could technically be a tie with npmd)#nerdy prudes must die #npmd #npmd spoilers #starkid

I'm only halfway through, but I already love Nerdy Prudes Must Die way better than Black Friday hehe

#maybe NPMD is hitting better bc i recently watched Bottoms #and there's a similar vibe there #if I had to rank the Hatchetfield Era of starkid it'd go TGWDLM > NPMD > Black Friday #mia liveblogs a thing #nerdy prudes must die

I think tgwdlm has the bet pacing (i mean damn the jokes NEVER stop).

I think black friday has the best music (made in america!!take me back!!! feast or famine?! BOTH of angelasS songs, i mean even the chris kringle songs kinda slap).

I think nerdy prudes is infinitely rewatchable and has all the fucking lords in black in it!!!!

#that's just my opinion #i cannot rank them bc i love them all completely #maybe the songs in tgwdlm don't rock me to my core but I love it all the same #personal #I could watch the Lords in Black sequence in npmd every damn day for the rest of my life

Mariah sounds so good in Not Your Seed but some of the lyrics are so bullshit

For one thing who do I have to beef with about that massive misuse of tween

#this is relatively lighthearted #watching somebody’s rankings of mariah’s vocals in tgwdlm #not your seed was 2 #la Dee dah day was 1

🍀🥳

🍀 favorite song? 🥳 least favorite song?

evil..........

my favorite song from tgwdlm is let it out. look joey richter's version of confrontation did something to my brain. join us and die comes in second because of jaime's vocals

from black friday is feast or famine. consumerist mob song?? frank pricely??? curt's shopper?? pLEASE

from nmt1 is snoozle town. i also really like jane's a car, but snoozle town is just too funny to me

from nmt2 is virginity rocks! very predictable i'm aware. but did you know that the day that sally met her boy she told everyone? everyone, yeah. neither played shy or even coy, too. and, uh, they told everyone. they sat on the beach. it was real cute, man. then sally removed the sequined dress from on top of her suit. uh, the boy leaned in, but sally crooned "leave room!" did you know that? did you? crazy, right? well just you wait until i tell you about tayl

from npmd it's either the summoning or just for once. i'm so tired of people ranking just for once so low on their tier lists i know it was probably a tough choice but it's just for once!! do you not see the tragedy in a severely bullied high school girl with raging self image issues singing (on an empty stage, because she's too scared in front of other people) through the disguise of a character in a play about how she wants to live a good enough life to have a mid-life crisis??? i know it's a change in tone but we also do have the whiplash of as cool as i think i am (reprise) right after the summoning. why don't you care about her pouring her heart out as you do pete :( she's not even asking for that much. pete wants to be cool, but all she wants is to live

least favorite song.... uh.. young at heart probably. icky vibes

#definitely an ask #sorry for the ruth rant it will happen again if provoked #as with all my opinions youre free to not like her. i will think about her twice as much to make up for it #i think the summoning is self explanatory #snoozle town out of context sounds like sally lou who (or whatever her name was) singing from whoville and i think that's beautiful #ruth and richie are so sad to me. the one thing they want (to live) is taken from them #why is it that just because ruth doesn't say “i love being alive” out loud like richie shes cast to the side #just for once is entirely her going “i am living! i am alive! why doesn't it feel like that!”

My personal ranking of how hard the lords in black slap (in my opinion)

1. Blinky

We only got one NMT with him but MAN was it fucking TIGHT. Blinky has such a clear and coherent theme (watching) which gives him a degree of predictability, but it's tempered by the fact that that theme has so many different offshoots. Blinky's power manifests in spectacle, capitalist surveillance, paranoia about relationships and the resulting controlling behavior that comes from that, sexual threats, false selves, and each of those themes could have easily been a whole episode alone, but instead they were woven together so well! There's clearly so much to explore with him. Also the fact that he's based on the concept of an audience that prefers its characters interesting more than happy is. Well it could have been stupid but it WASN'T okay it WASN'T

2. Pokey

Man I'm a sucker for a hivemind. His biggest draw for me is, well, the implications. Pokey pulls off the "seems goofy, is actually horrifying" better than the other lords in black in my opinion, and not just because he was the first, but because his mere presence subverts the whole medium TGWDLM was made in, reframing ordinarily harmless scenes as horror. The loss of self is a very human fear to play on, and opens up the potential for so much delicious tragedy.

3. Wiggly

Coherent theme of greed. I like that he manifested more subtly than Pokey-- rather than taking people over, he preyed on urges they already had and redirected them to himself. (The fact that he was going to be summoned ruined that a little for me, but not terribly.) I also liked the stress that Wiggly didn't have to do a ton of work because of the fact that humans already fucked up their world. Made in America SLAPS man.

4. Nibbly

I mean, you can't go wrong with a hunger themed monster. Nibbly had a bit of the multifaceted theming Blinky did with physical hunger and a strong "hunger" or desire to win, but the fact that he was kept as a late reveal meant that couldn't be explored as much. Overall, Nibbly didn't seem to have a strong corrupting influence or even a will or desire to conquer humans-- Roman was the real villain, Nibbly just helped.

5. Tinky

What even is this guy's deal? Yes, I know that he's "the bastard of time and space" but what does that mean? Why do we only see him interacting with time and not space? His persona has some karmic aspects, since his one victim was revealed to have caused all his own problems with time travel, but it's not emphasized enough to make it a coherent theme. It seems like his main thing is being obsessed with a terrible man, which nearly every tumblrina manages without magic powers. I would still like to see him expanded on though.

Very curious to see how this one pans out, my guess is the two highest will be "1.tgwdlm 2.npmd 3.bf" and "1.npmd 2.tgwdlm 3.bf" based on what I've seen here in the fandom but I could be totally wrong

Please rb for bigger sample size 🙏

I was sick this weekend so I watched the 3 hatchetfield musicals and I'm trying to understand why I don't see more love for the guy who didn't like musicals?! Imo it's the best one by far

I'm curious, was this your first time watching them? Was this ur intro to the fandom? I am not judging AT ALL but I think it would completely change the way I'm reading this😭

Cause honestly, this is very surprising for me to hear? I would say tgwdlm IS the most popular one and has been for awhile, I would say the freshness of npmd may make it seem like its more popular BUT also npmd has brought in a lot of new fans (imo) so I think maybe that's why npmd SEEMS or actually IS the most popular RIGHT NOW

But before npmd it was absolutely tgwdlm, it certainly isn't my bby black friday😭 Black Friday isn't unpopular per se but ppl often say its not on the level of tgwdlm, and now npmd, (not my opinion)

I mean, tgwdlm is objectively one of Starkid's most popular musicals. If you go on their channel, its the 5th most popular vid (after twisted and the first 3 parts of avpm) I think tgwdlm actually brought a lot of old fans back and brought a lot of new fans.

But ofc this is ur opinion and if that's how you see that then ofc that's fine, I'm just guessing you were open to my opinion otherwise you wouldn't have sent an ask to me😭

Tbh I was abt to do my own ranking right now but then realised I need way longer with npmd, I was abt to put it on top but that could be fresh bias (if that sentence even makes sense)

I will give my ranking some day🙏

#Very interesting opinion #Not in a rude way #I just saw it and went...woah #nat talks #anon #starkid #team starkid #starkid productions #tgwdlm #the guy who didn't like musicals #black friday #black friday musical #black friday starkid #npmd #nerdy prudes must die #hatchetfield #hatchetfield series
