Hehe, kinda nice speech song, and some message about internetz. LOL

Storebror message repeated in an angrier voice?

Counterargument: Bees shouldn't fly out on the Internet and isolate themselves! They should stay in the hive and be social!! ;)

Nice gfx by Prowler, the grandpa message was a little too strong to be humorous for me this time.

Nice demo!

Oh my god, this is fucking amazing. Best track I have ever heard in any C64 demo. THIS is the SID demo I've been waiting for. No boring (albeit impressive) tech stuff, but an actual demo that brings together concept, technical prowess and style. By a moderate margin my favorite from the compo.

Very grandfatherly about its message, but quite awesome nonetheless. Thanks to the music mostly.

Hmm, posting a comment here because means I've spent too much time on the internet. Damn, the demo is right.

The first time the vocals came on I was like, "woo!"
...and then they *kept going*.

Strange in a very good way. Love it!

Not only absolute music-trickery once again, but also a very different approach to a demo, atleast compared to how all the other demos look!
And the soundtrack itself rulez aswell!
I really enjoyed it, splendid job once again! :)

It's a really fun demo. I don't look at this one for technical aspects, but for the whole message that is says and the great music and art. Love this one a lot. I come back once a while to it because it's quite entertaining.

You're no Viznut.

The voice samples suck (Incomprehensible. I've been looking at many video captures and tried various emulator settings... None of them are legible.). You could've easily fixed it with inclusion of lyrics on the screen (duh), but instead you just put up seemingly random images.

The message... Well I can't talk about it because I can't even hear it because of the reason mentioned above.

The only nice thing is the technical stuff... which well... was presented poorly.
Yes, a vocoder on C64 is cool, but vocoders aren't necessarily a good idea if your song focuses around the lyrics, as they impair legibility of voice.

Sorry to say, but you had one trick and it didn't work.

BTW, I have no problems understanding English speech so don't try to pull that on me.

Only if the demo were very explicit and clear about its message... then you wouldn't need the vocals... oh wait :D

On a more serious note: this song here is one i'd LOVE to hear as a "normal" tune. Major rulage.

I was trying to dislike this, but at the CBM balloons I gave up.

the best music-video-style demo for the platform, i guess.
