awesome vid broski!

I think it’s interesting that Jenna has a YELLOW phone and Tyler has a red one. She’s outside of dema and because yellow symbolizes hope this could be a metaphor for how Jenna is Tyler’s hope and encouragement that motivates him to escape

When Tyler Joseph goes and invents a universe that rivals marvel with all of its connections and meanings. 💁🏼‍♀️

I find it extremely interesting that during Mulberry Street everyone was frozen. It had that WandaVision vibe. And then all of a sudden, when the bridge kicked in when the deep voice joins Tyler singing “Mulberry Street, so good to see you,” that is when all the people start moving. Since the deep voice is Blurryface, it’s just a cool idea that his voice can control everyone in dema.

i noticed that during the second verse of lane boy they started playing nico and the niners but weren't able to play the whole song because it has the lyric "dema don't control us" in it - while the show was controlled by dema

When my 8 year old son heard Heathens this way, he said “Daddy, he changed it, to make it quieter and more beautiful”

Here’s something you might have not caught on. On saturday you can see the 2 bishops telling tyler “remember the collection?” since tyler was playing TOO many old songs not from the Scaled and Icy collection they told him to stop and remember the collection, which then tyler makes a facial expression of “fine i’ll do it” and starts singing the most “fake” and “generic” song of the album, saturday, one of the most perfect representation of the masked good dema is trying to portray

noticed that every song that has a scream in it gets cut or the hosts show up. in holding on to you, when tyler screams, the bishops cut it off, in shy away, Tyler screamed and the bishopes showed up and lastly, in jumpsuit/hds, the bishops also showed up with f'd up faces and after car radio, instead of showing the bishops' faces, an alarm occurred. i think the alarm tellls Tyler that the performance needs to end immediately because they are coming for them

I think Nico and the Niners might tell the plan for this live stream. "Force a sponsor and start a concert, a complete diversion, start a mob and you can be quite certain. We'll win but not everyone will get out". Album = sponsored by DEMA. Concert = live stream. Diversion = everyone was distracted with the concert until the alarm went off. We'll win but not everyone will get out = The diversion was successful because someone (maybe Clancy) made it out, but Tyler is still trapped.

Love how they basically released an entire album as a teaser/part of the rollout for the actual next album

Lets all take a moment to admire tyler and his amazing story telling abilities. This man isn't just an artist. He's a story teller, a producer, a sonwgriter, a vocalist and the author of not just this story, but of all the music, all the details, the letters, the numbers. This man literally spends all of his time planning out eveyr single detail. Not a single stone is unturned when it comes to the possibilites he has when it comes to the lure of the music. This man has done it all.

Confession: I’ve always ignored this stuff, and taken his lyrics at face value. This video was my gateway drug, I’ve officially been redpilled.

it is incredible how even though it was an online concert, i had an adrenaline rush after the live experience, just like i normally have with a concert. like how the FUCK did they do that???? the story, the choice of songs, TYLERS HAIR, the choreos, the rooms, the amazingly sung songs........ it was so so f-ing good. it was so much more than i expected. and i cant wait to see them irl. this album is a BOP also im loving your take on the lore in the livestream

this aged like wine after Overcompensate came out and Clancy was announced

Bro cooked and the pilots ATE, 2 years later and Clancy is not dead🔥

Tyler is an absolute genius for creating the lore for Scaled and Icy. It's beautifully crafted.

idk what it could mean but you know, in this era they switched places on stage/photos (josh on the right, tyler on the left) so when they play SAI songs the instruments are in that position but when they play older songs they go back to their usual places (josh on the left, tyler on the right)

watching this two years later is insane

When Jenna and Tyler are talking on the phone we can see that Jenna’s phone is yellow, which is the rebel colour in the album Trench, while Tyler’s phone is red, which reminded me of Blurryface and I think that it symbolises Tyler is a prisoner of Dema and the bishops, and Jenna is kinda his savior, just as in the song Tear In My Heart.

I don't know if anybody else caught this but when the bishops cut off twenty one pilots I'm pretty sure they constantly say the album is "full of saturation" and "dripping with saturation", but the first words we hear on the entire album are "I can feel my saturation leaving me slowly". Edit: Also, Fun Fact: in the play All My Sons (the play Tyler got the name twenty one pilots from) they made their aircraft parts in Ohio. Oh and the lead character kills himself at the end.

I read a comment somewhere about how during any sai song Tyler and Josh were on the "wrong" sides. Tyler is normally on the right and Josh on the left during performances and promo pics, but for anything sai, they were swapped. And it held true for the livestream event as well. I'm not sure exactly what it means, but it does make everything feel a bit off, and I thought it was cool they paid that close attention to detail. Edit: mixed up my rights and lefts originally bc wow...

When you referred that when the alarm went off it was like someone tried to escape it automatically reminded me of "A complete diversion", like the show was held so the bishops would do their propaganda show, but at the same time TOP had a second intention (maybe Clancy running away and escaping). I recently posted on reddit how Bounce Man reminds me of Tyler speaking to someone in need of help, so he could help him out with some things and he would disappear for good. Clancy seems the perfect character for this escaping, since the bishops want to make him (and possibly fake his death) as an example since his failed escape from Dema

I think the snow has something to do with the bishop Reisdro. His button in the control room is white. The tempatuREISDROpping frome the song Doubt ⚪❄️ and icy has mabye had something to with that to.

I also find it interesting how the hosts kept saying that the album was so saturated but all the posters and stuff were very desaturated. And a bit of a stretch that the original logo colours of tøp were red and dark blue has been desaturated to baby pink and baby blue.

a thing to notice is that they always play "Trees" at the end of the show but here they didn't do that

The livestream was so fun Tyler and Josh really outdid themselves Another thing I found interesting was at the most climactic parts of the live stream when Tyler was performing was when the ad for the shirts and then that corner one kept coming up idk if it’s a stretch but I found it interesting another thing I found interesting was that Dan and Sally did not mention any of the other songs from previous albums but only referred to scaled and icy as if they were trying to rewrite history. Or at least stop the real music from being spoken about ( if we consider scaled and icy was written by Dema this would make sense because Tyler can’t outright talk against it)

There's another Rosie reference by the way. The curtains behind the fire escape Tyler climbs have roses on them :)

I think all the lyrics of the album are wrote with Clancy’s handwriting in walls and letters when you go to the “Inside the lyrics” site

Also fun fact: the double loop in o indicates that its a lie

I was thinking the alarms simbolyised banditos re-entering dema to rescue Tyler, which is why he's calm, and everyone else is freaking out

The table in shy away might be a reference to “The Last Supper” painting.

Good Day Dema's logo is directly inspired by the original Good Morning America logo (from the 70's). It's the same font, most obvious by the slanted A and the overlapping o's (although in the GMA logo these O's are colourful). The Good Day Dema set is also meant to look like a living room, just like GMA originally was set to look like a living room although I'm not sure if that is a particularly identifying feature of GMA or was a common talk show design at the time.

It could also be him daydreaming because when he first got up to sing, the hosts froze as if the singing was happening in a different reality than the one in which they were talking, and the real reality resumes when he sits back down from his daydream. Also, if it had been the morning show, he would have only performed stressed out, not an entire concert

Me watching this when my fav song is Mulberry Street 👁👄👁

another thing that could possibly point to clancy still being alive is the lyrics in shy away, “When I get home You better not be there, we're placing bets you won't” there’s multiple ways you could put that towards clancy, both in a negative and positive way

In the mountain scene, there are 9 chairs, 1 for each bishop, Tyler jumps on the table and jumps on the plates and breaks stuff nodding to trying to destroy the bishops

Really well put together I personally think trash represents destruction obviously he has it written on him but also “I created this world to feel control destroy it if it want” obviously Ned represents Tyler’s creative side so trash being a dragon just really makes me think he is destruction

“Rent a race horse and force a sponsor And start a concert, a complete diversion” Horse in Jumpsuit Chipotle Sponsor Live concert to serve as a diversion for Clancy’s escape It’s all coming together 🤨

Watching this after watching I Am Clancy 🤯 Damn near spot on my guy! I had to keep reminding myself that this was 2 years ago

The livestream was amazing, even if you didn't know any of the Dema stuff. But yes, there were lots of hints about the narrative. One thing you didn't mention is how, as the livestream continued, there were more and more people added to the band, and they were wearing jumpsuits that had Tyler's hourglass tattoo on them, but also had the Dema logo on them. It's like the bishops needed more and more oversight to watch Tyler. Before Lane Boy, when you hear "Why do I kneel to these concepts?" and the rest of that lead-in, the mouth on the Bishops appears to be Tyler's mouth, as if he's the one actually saying those things. Or maybe it confirms that this is in his head. Then when Lane Boy starts, the neon lights make a fence, and that's when they have several more band members. After the two hosts/bishops say "No chances" and that they're sending more people, THAT's when there are MANY more people in the band, including back-up singers. Also, the symbolism of fire and water is used extensively - the bucket, the pond/boat, the torch, the burning car. I like your idea that the scene where Tyler is screaming "Entertain my Faith!" was related to "The Matrix," but I think that looked more like water.... These are symbols of change and baptism. And it was often after water/fire scenes that the bishops looked more beat up. I agree that "Clancy is Dead" is a lie. I also agree that Josh isn't in Dema. Thanks so much for this video!!

yesss the livestream felt so wandavision-y (in many aspects... everything being colorful and fun and seemingly perfect, but reality breaking into it here and there, ad intermissions, different styles/ genres being explored), so interesting

Fun Fact: The initial cut of this upload featured a ton of video clips from the livestream, however UKposts is really coming down on any UKposts upload with footage of the feature performance event, so I had to re-edit the entire thing and had to use screenshots instead. Oh well, I still think it's fun to look at all the easter eggs within the event! ☕ Buy me a Coffee? ► www.buymeacoffee.com/jakealan

What I love besides how AMAZING the livestream was, is that someone who is new to the lore could still enjoy the show and music clueless to the other things going on. 🙋‍♀️

That would also explain why in between set changes of each song tyler kept smirking at the camera cuz he knew what was coming

I theorize that the point of capture to have been the towers of silence for Tyler and Clancy. My evidence is the setting of Inside the Lyrics page. Also, going by the Dema info we have, Tyler explained the theology of Vialism in an official discord interview to be the act of suicide that the Bishops glorify. Your theory that Clancy is the one that escaped makes perfect sense. Considering that the lyrics of Redecorate go against the act of suicide just explains how whoever wrote it defied Vialism and has the will to escape Dema.

You forgot to mention around 5:00 - The monologue/dialogue in this part ("Why do I kneel to these concepts, tempted by control, controlled by temptation, stay low they say" etc) is the same dialogue used in the lane boy music video and is also played over the speakers when they perform lane boy live. It's a cool little segment!

the black things that you described as masks is actually black paint, you can see their mouths when they move them

The wintery set reminds me of oh Ms. Believers lyrics

Ok but what if, the reason Josh isn't in the beginning or end, is because he was at the awards ceremony when they won most dedicated fan base????

I noticed that Tyler looked up a lot during the livestream, mostly during some lyrics in Lane Boy and some other songs, like 'don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless'. Firstly these lyrics are so important for this album cause they all seem like perfect songs and he's basically saying please don't trust it, cause it's propaganda. More than that, the looking up made me think he was talking to the banditos in his head, like he was hoping they would be there watching over him (like in Jumpsuit)...

I feel like since there are 9 towers and 9 bishops, each bishop lives within each tower, the bigger the tower the stronger the bishop. Just a thought I had after relearning all the lore yesterday:)

The livestream was impressive as hell. I shared a lot of your theories and spent a lot of this video playing snap with you and that’s more evidence for me that we are correct as lots of us came up with these. Lots of new cool ideas here as well. Amazing video as always man! Keep it up. Can’t wait for more of the story to be fleshed out. One more album connected to the dema storyline then a new story to get stuck into. Scaled and icy is definitely that in between record Tyler was hinting at

When Tyler is performing Never Take It, as you said, we can see Trash the dragon on the floor. So I am guessing the lyrics "They're trying to weaponize you and I" refer to Tyler and the dragon. Not only does this tell us once again that the album is propaganda, but it also tells us that Dema is also after Trash. Also, we know that Trash signifies destruction, because of the lettering on its wings. Maybe, SAI is propaganda and Trash is some type of problem or deficiency in Dema, that they are trying to cover up and hide. This "problem" is trying to show itself to the world and if it does, Dema will be destroyed. OR maybe, Trash is some type of manifestation of Clancy that they have contained, and it is trying to escape to continue Clancy's works.

this is a fantastic video, but I would love to add two things to the details/theory: 1- I don't think the alarms after Car Radio are a sign of someone breaking out of Dema, I think it's the opposite. I believe Tyler sucessfully broke out of Dema, reunited with the Banditos, and the alarms tell the them that the Bishops finally found them. That's why everybody's running in panic except for Tyler, just like on Levitate he apparently got used to being dragged back to Dema. I think that works best because of how aggresive the hosts got towards the camera by that last cutaway. It's like they are taunting Tyler by referencing No Chances, because by that point of the show he's not alone anymore. After the boat section he's sitting comfortably on a living room surrounded by people he apparently trusts a lot, and I think those are the Banditos. Also like you said, the alarm is a sample from 'No Chances', so it's most likely the sound of Bishops arriving, coming for Tyler, and he's got no chances of escaping. 2- I don't think its a dream or a fantasy at all. Like I mentioned, I think he actually managed to leave Dema, and I also think that by the end he was brought back there by the Bishops. That's why he's back to where they started, it's his cell, it's a lie. It loops like someone's never ending struggle with mental health. One evidence I actually have to back this up is the "Explore the Lyrics" section from the presentation website. There we got to actually explore what looks like a Dema prison cell through VR, and we could try and find our way out. While doing so we were able to find many notes on the walls and the floor, all featuring sketches for the lyrics of the album, presumably left from Tyler on his way out. Sorry about the wall of text I really wanted to contribute to our beautiful hunt for lore

Someone has mentioned that the "stars" in 8:25 could be representing the clique. Think of how the clique shine their phone flashlights in real life concerts during, for example, Trees. And how it looks all together - little star like dots in the stadium. And another thing - the lyrics "They want to make you forget" during nico and the niners. Think of how in the livestream, when the clique is showed in videos, their faces are all blurry and distorted. Like Tyler is slowly forgetting the clique. Finally, Bounce Man could be about Ned. Tyler mentioned in an interview that he hasn't been able to contact Ned. ("I-I-I don't know if you've got your phone'/ Cause this went straight to voicemail"). We can also see a "missing" poster of Ned in one of the store windows ("And my wife saw your face on the nightly news"). Music video for Chlorine was filmed in Mexico ("Float you a couple bands, then you head to Mexico" and "If you don't reply/ I'll know you must have crossed state lines")

crazy to rewatch this after this past week

4:48 "The sun moves behind you" - Choker

I always thought that when the alarms go off, it was the verse from Nico and the Niners, “force a sponsor and start a concert a complete diversion” that this was the diversion so Clancy could finally leave.

Did the bishops ever mention how many songs were on the album? I think they named songs but of course they never mentioned "no chances" or "redecorate".

Loved every part of the livestream also nice insight for the stream and the redecorate lyric video

when tyler and josh reappear on the stage for Lane Boy, they are now accompanied by more band members, who wear DEMA jumpsuits. i think they appeared because the last time tyler was on the stage, he started to sing Holding On To You, and deviating from what the bishops wanted him to perform, so sending out band members was a method to keep him from trying to revolt even more

This isn't my own observation but someone mentioned the table during shy away looking like the table that hosted the last supper, further proving Clancy to be the Christ figure in this story ^^'

amazing work, Thank you and good luck

Incredible show, banger analysis

this was top tier i needed this, i only got to watch that live stream once and then it was gone.

Blown away indeed. Well done TOP. 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

🤯 This was incredible!

Really good breakdown I missed a bunch of things!!

the livestream made me fall in love with the album. i’ll admit that at first listen, i didnt really know what to think of it. but of _course_ the album goes way deeper than i thought, what a piece of work this is!

I love how Twenty One Pilots do their storytelling! No one else does things like that. Also, so many details that I didn't get in the stream.

This is so wonderfully made. I love seeing the lore unfold and this universe come more and more to life. ❤

You did a good job figuring this out!

3:50 this was not only reference to ned in the show! When they played chlorine, behing Josh It was a shadow of ned

on mulberry street, the bandito tour posters are in the back on a store named dematronix

Rewatched before it goes on the big screen. You have TALENT! Your future is bright!

THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO, loved it

Am I the only one who things the Shy Away set and costume looks ripped straight out of Blade Runner 2049? Ryan Goslings character where’s the same jacket and sits there in the snow as he realizes he’s been programmed his whole life for a single purpose.

“Scaled and icy” actually stands for “scaled back and isolated”

This was really really good thank you!

I agree with every word you said, great job I'm so excited of what's going on to happen

The boat scene was literally Scaled Back and Isolated :o

Clancy is ALIVE!! Dude I love this theory. You did a great job putting it together! I can't wait to hear you thoughts on how the storyline might conclude.

Going back to watch this!

Dude I'm impressed. You were right on the nose with the Clancy theories at the end of the video!

Ned has already appeared in this new era, in the Choker music video

so now we know tyler is clyncy :D

awesome analysis! I would also like to add that I heard Tyler talk about how he wanted to create Scaled and Icy for the people during the pandemic- as things are scaled back and isolated- and what an amazing connection to their world of Dema they had already been creating to help people with those same feelings!

fricking amazing, really dude. really. I'm pushing my jaw up

im pretty sure the A in good day dema is a neon gravestone from the nico and the niners video and the audio video for neon gravestones, but only in the intro of the livestream

Make a video on the "inside the lyrics" on the website 💙💗⚪❄️

Thanks so much for making this video😊 it gave me so much to think about😅

Just when you think it couldn’t get any better. The stories are amazing. Smart dudes

Woah! This was like so cool! I wasn't able to be there for the live stream so this is like a little recap lol

When I rewatched the stream I kinda had the thought, what if Trash actually put that car on fire. We have a few overhead shots in nerver take it that really reminded me of something flying above looking down

I am glad you did this. I wished that I had been able to record it just for my own purposes but I did not. I wanted to take time to go through it all like you did. I did not think it was going to be as much as it was. I thought just a concert, not what it was. It was amazing. I hope they sell a recording of it, or let us download it if we had a ticket or something! When I first noticed the host's blood on their shirts, the bruise on the guy's cheek and the blood under his nose, I had a feeling that there would be a lot of clues and hints shown. I was so enthralled that I was not able to think about it all as the show went on. So, thanks for doing this video!

Great video! It made my day actually

This gives me the potential to throw a wrench in the system as "we" know it. We can break through and break the system together when the time comes guys, entertain our faith guys.

I think you’re right in every aspect except Clancy still being alive. I think Clancy tried to escape Dema (mental health issues) but got caught by the bishops (his inner demons) and on Redecorate he can’t face the fact he lost the battle and is thinking about how the other Banditos(family members) is gonna handle his suicide.

I love twenty one pilots so much 🥺

I think I'm like a lot of people in the fact that this performance was so far above and beyond what I was expecting. It was absolutely amazing. And I completely agree with you, fantastic addition to the lore of Dema.
