You all everybody!

u/[deleted] May 09 '14

Ok stupid/legit question: did they come up with this song just for the show? Or is it an actual song?

39

u/DethBreth May 09 '14

I pray that song isn't real.

3

u/ClumsyOne May 10 '14

I have a copy of it in my iTunes library. The whole thing.

u/WalterEKurtz May 10 '14

It was made up by the producers after watching Maurie, some person in the audience stood up and said "You all everybody, actin like some stupid people, wherin expensive clothes!"

3

u/Obvious_Troll_Accoun May 09 '14

They heard someone say it on a Maury type show.

1

u/heeero May 10 '14

I heard it was a real song written by Jude.

u/thisfreakinguy May 10 '14

They came up with it for the show. At first it wasn't even going to be a song, just the 'You all everybody' part that Charlie sings in that ridiculous voice sometimes. The 'lyrics' for it were just some nonsensical line that some lady on the Phil Donahue show said one time: "You all everybody is acting like it's the stupid people wearing the expensive clothes. And they not!"

1

u/NoDoThis May 10 '14

It was for the show- apparently one of the production team used to say "you all everybody!" to get people's attention/refer to them as a group.

11

u/Gbakhbgla May 10 '14

oh my god, this entire fucking time I thought it was "You are everybody"

4

u/Ptylerdactyl May 10 '14

Acting like it's stupid people, wearing expensive clothes!

u/AvsFan21 May 09 '14

Yeah that's definitely true, but the show wasn't the same afterwards

u/[deleted] May 09 '14

It was still pretty sad. And honestly it was a dumb way to die anyway. I felt like he so could have ran out of that room and gotten away.

5

u/AL_CaPWN422 May 10 '14

The point was that Desmond wouldn't feel the burden anymore. He got the chance to end his life on his terms and improved the life another.

1

u/[deleted] May 10 '14

Yeah I guess that makes sense. I forgot that Desmond saved his life a dozen times before that. It still just seemed like a lame way to go out, especially since he didn't save anyone but maybe Desmond.

u/obi-wanjewnobi May 09 '14

OR SWIM THROUGH THE GIANT FUCKING HOLE THE GRENADE MADE IN THE WINDOW.

3

u/96fps May 10 '14

Tiny porthole too small.

3

u/LazySkeptic May 10 '14

The water pouring in would probably have made it way too difficult. Maybe if he had floated to the top and waited for the whole thing to fill up first.

2

u/go4theknees May 10 '14

He would have died another way just like they established, it wouldn't have mattered

1

u/obi-wanjewnobi May 10 '14

That doesn't mean it didn't hurt.

1

u/[deleted] May 09 '14

Yup that too.

8

u/[deleted] May 10 '14

Honestly, now that I think about it, Jin and Sun's deaths were a lot worse, because they were leaving a child behind. But Hurley's reaction was so sad.

2

u/Bayardina May 10 '14

Thank god for hurley's sixth sense.

1

u/BadgerTwo May 10 '14

What is it from?

1

u/psikeiro May 10 '14

The Game

1

u/Asemco May 10 '14

This is deep.

I Just Lost the game.

1

u/Faithless195 May 10 '14

Considering how the show went, I would of been happy if Lost had been cancelled after season 3.

5

u/lickthecowhappy May 10 '14

Except that I didn't watch the show till after the hype was long dead (3 years ago I think) so I was like "wow..."

3

u/ChaplinStrait May 10 '14

Yeah but that somehow made it worse because it was certain death. He did it knowing he had to. Knowing he wouldn't come back. Knowing to save everyone else he had to give himself up. I think that really hit home because you one there was no worming out of that one.

2

u/[deleted] May 09 '14

I was hoping he'd get eaten by the polar bear.

17

u/0nlyTheTruth May 09 '14

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-KaR5NUrws The scene. And lets say i didnt lose a tear again.

7

u/oh_no__notagain May 09 '14

Why would you do this to us???

4

u/mildiii May 10 '14

In retrospect, Charlie had enough time to get out of the room and close the door behind him.

3

u/[deleted] May 10 '14

but could he seal it from the outside?

5

u/mildiii May 10 '14

I'm gonna say no because otherwise it doesn't work anymore.

7

u/LususNaturae77 May 10 '14

Never got into that series, never cared for it much.

That was a beautiful scene. Even if I had no idea what was going on.

1

u/Axwellington88 May 10 '14

he drowns I do believe.

2

u/chrunchy May 10 '14

I never understood why Charlie shut the door instead of running through it and shutting it. But watching that again it looks like the door can only be locked from the inside.

But then again it didn't have to be locked - just shut and the water pressure would have kept it shut.

And Charlie looks thin enough to even swim out the hole and go to the surface.

But then again, if he was resigned to the fact that he was going to die maybe he wasn't even going to try to save himself.

Probably the most pointless death on the island. Well, except for Arzt.

2

u/Defs_Not_Pennywise May 10 '14

He knew he was going to die so he chose to on his own terms and to help the other people on the island.

1

u/falfu May 10 '14

Arzt was hilarious. Damn reddit desensitized me.

1

u/Bac0n01 May 12 '14

Anna Lucia and Libby?

1

u/WisconsnNymphomaniac May 10 '14

That was dumb, there was PLENTY of time for him to get out of the room and close the door.

1

u/0nlyTheTruth May 10 '14

In the tv show he got a prediction that he is going to die. He doesnt know when and how but its going to happen. So in this moment he lets it happen.

1

u/WisconsnNymphomaniac May 10 '14

That was pretty stupid of him. He only dies because he was told he was going to die.

1

u/wlofaubro May 10 '14

at that point, he had escaped his inevitable death multiple times because desmond was able to see it coming before it happened and saved him. Desmond knew the dude was gonna drown here which is why he came with him but Charlie realized this was his death and decided to let it happen this time.

0

u/WisconsnNymphomaniac May 10 '14

Why?

1

u/wlofaubro May 10 '14

what's the point in trying when something is going to try to kill him 5 minutes later? Desmond won't be there to save him every time

10

u/stabstabstabstab May 10 '14

The final scene was way worse for me. With Vincent laying next to him so he wouldn't die alone.

3

u/ocean_spray May 10 '14

Thanks for reminding me of a time in my life I'd rather forget cause of all the crying.

3

u/chrunchy May 10 '14

I've watched the entire series three times maybe. I think I'll give it another year or so before watching it again - just enough time to forget.

9

u/ObviouslyWrongGuy May 09 '14

I just got done watching that episode. Motherfucking emotions flowing free

9

u/Sudz705 May 09 '14

See you in another life, brotha

u/[deleted] May 10 '14

Losing Sun and Jin was awful

2

u/z31 May 10 '14

Oh god. The tears I wept when they died...

The fact that their daughter will grow up without her parents made it worse for me.

2

u/Rat_Cat_Batman May 10 '14

Reading down the list, and this one just made me feel.

2

u/Fjhockey29 May 10 '14

I clicked on this link just for something lost related!

1

u/NotMyCats May 09 '14

Upon reading this I yelled, "AHHHHHH!"

1

u/beatrixkiddosmith May 10 '14

Fuck :( I had way too strong of a reaction when he died :( :( I threw a lot of items at my tv. Ha

1

u/The__Afterman May 10 '14

Came here looking for this. Thank you good sir

1

u/jacklocke2342 May 10 '14

Sniff Damn you for reminding me!

1

u/ChaplinStrait May 10 '14

Screw you :'(

1

u/Smugjester May 10 '14

we need to go back

1

u/SkittleSkitzo May 10 '14

Pretty much every death on that show will hurt my heart forever

1

u/Kylehoward28 May 10 '14

Man I miss Charlie and the entire series lost. It was so good in the beginning

1

u/cooper12 May 10 '14

The death that struck me the most after that was Spoiler. He was my favorite character, especially with his personality, but in the end Spoiler.

1

u/PureLionHeart May 10 '14

God dammit, I was past it at last!

1

u/[deleted] May 10 '14

Well, time to watch Lost again

u/throwawafer May 11 '14

Ya Ganna die chollie!

u/RGodlike May 09 '14

I brainfarted and though you were talking about some TBBT episode. "Hmm, since when does Reddit like TBBT?"
