LYRICS: VERSE 1: Lovely day for it, how do you do? And we just had to pay for it out of the truth But who can remember? So who'd really care? Exactly how all of the bodies got there With a hop and a skip and the pop of a pill We will all be forgiven for all that we've killed And we've never been happier (And we've never been happier) No we'll never be happier (No we'll never be happier) A brilliant day is dawning A million smiles are forming Our shimmering isles are all enthralled No there’s nothing like conforming Perish the thought of mourning Did you ignore the warnings? All negative thoughts abhorred My Lord! Did you take your joy this morning? Ask anybody in Wellington Wells They'll tell you it's terribly swell Delirious denizens dwell where there's nary a speck between heaven and hell They say that the empire fell Oh, but you never could tell! You say you remember it well? You'd better forget it or else! Why try to better yourself? Reach for the medical shelf Just take your medicine, death and the pestilence melt into pleasant locales Another rebellion quelled Dust off your suspenders and belts It's horrendous to dwell so remember how splendid it felt to surrender yourself... ...The roses we grow have a terrible smell... CHORUS: It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy To be among we happy few It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy VERSE 2: Well well, welcome to Wellington Wells Hear the tintinnabulations of the resonant bells As every resident tells you when they gush about our little town No need to rush, hush, you're welcome to settle down Better not let me down You're not a downer are you? Get off the bench and quell that frown right now, Keanu Try not to make a scene, let's keep this place serene Unless you want a cricket bat print in the place your face had been Don't be concerned, that was just a little bitter lyric The world in which you live is every little bit idyllic Because if we even sniff discontent we're quick to kill it Ahem, please forgive my sense of humour, I'm a wit; satiric They call me Uncle Jack I'm bringing jungle back Dropping silver tongue twisting numbers on your mumble rap Now be my guest and enjoy your day And don’t forget to keep ingesting your joy all day BRIDGE: Not a frown to be found in our haven from gloom It's astounding what our medication can do As our town's burning down in a rainbow of hues Even the sky wouldn't dare to be blue CHORUS: It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy To be among we happy few It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy VERSE 3: I've found a downer! Hunt him down! Surround the bounder! Drown him! Pound him into powder! Then head down to the grounds for a round of rounders! (HOORAY!) If you're caught in a rotten, improper mood We'll stop at nothing to swaddled and coddle you Throttle and bottle you, Bobby will cudgel you Into the pond ‘til your body is otter food Quarter you, jauntily torture you Until you've thought all the thoughts that we order you Sporting a jollier point of view If you're not enjoying it what is the point of you? We've just the thing to stop the rabble, It’s Grin, pop some tablets No matter what the matter is Sins forgot. Fabulous Cast off with the ardent misfits Lamenting the garden districts So throw your doses in the bin History's made by those who grin The fact is you can't react not knowing what REDACTED No need to grieve if you can't see diseases we've REDACTED Happiness and truth, we simply view them through a lens, REDACTED Life's a breeze when you can leave uneasy deeds REDACTED (I'm happy.) (I'm happy.) (I'm happy!) CHORUS: It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy To be among we happy few It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy It's a Joy To be among we happy few It's a Joy It's a Joy And we've never been happier No we've never been happier

I say this with total honesty. The fact that the chorus sounds like The Beatles is incredible, this is an amazing song that truly encompasses the themes and events of We Happy Few, just pop your pills and forget the stench of reality as the colors brighten and the clouds fly past in psychedelic swirls.

I know that the developers of We Happy Few were a little disappointed in how the game was released but honestly I do hope they revisit the gloriously, brightly-colored, orwellian dystopia where all sadness is punished by death or exile. *_Wellington Welles._* _Where everything is a Joy._ This remaster is honestly a beautiful love-letter to the almost forgotten survival sim with a story that always leaves me with a smile...

@@rocketjumper5419 The creation of the game was fairly hazy from kickstarter to being pushed to the Xbox One. I thought the survival parts of the game were interesting but didn't hold the weight needed for a survival game while the singleplayer parts showed a lot of polish but were still reflective of the survival gameplay. The major reason it failed as well is because they kept pushing it as a Bioshock type game in marketing when the team advidely wanted it to be acknowledged as an indie game as to not throw fake assumptions onto them... Though that ended up with the lackluster release we got. The true version of the game is similar to the sandbox mode where there is no story and you are just trying to escape, similar to Sir You Are Being Hunted. I feel like the DLCs were good for that single player experience but I think a multiplayer survival mode would still be interesting to have a swing at since that is a major thing nowadays. Also they missed a major opportunity to have a Bobby Themed DLC where you play survival but as a Bobby off his Blackberry but having to fake being high of Joy as he cracks down other "Downers" to keep himself out of the line of suspicion

Look at the likes

I really enjoy the creative use of subtitles in this video The Wellies get a joyful font The man in black has the redacted font Uncle Jack gets a his own font too But my favorite part is how there are lyrics that are never spoken because they're redacted. It's something you could never do with audio alone, it feels like it really takes advantage of the video aspect of the music video. This goes doubly because many people seem to think adding subtitles are a chore, so it's very satisfying to see someone demonstrating their potential to add to the experience.

at the end of the song, he mentions how he has updated our prescription of joy. If you listen to the original compared to this, you will realise that the older one sounded a lot gloomier and less powerful, as if joy hadn't been refined and perfected, as opposed to now where they have made joy an all powerful substance that has zero flaws. Brilliant wordplay and acknowledgement of your difference in styles.

Everyone is talking about the line "even the sky wouldnt dare to be blue" but i love the line "our town's burning down in a rainbow of hues", it represents the game so well, with Wellington Wells gradually crumbling down but everyone is too high off their Joy to notice

I don't think I have to tell you that this feels like a new shot of adrenaline into the song, and it feels like a completely new song. The revamped bass and instruments for the 4 piece band, plus the occasional cracks all through it and in Bulls section through to the darkness under Wellington Wells show how much more there is to this than the first one did. I love them both, and the first Its a Joy will always have a special place in my heart... but the new effects sends this one into the stratosphere. Who wrote the Uncle Jack rap, you or Dan? Or was it a collaboration,and now you've remastered it, would you have liked it to be rewritten in any way? The only issue now is[REDACTED]. [THERE ARE NO ISSUES. ENJOY YOUR DAY.]

this remaster continues to be an absolute joy (pun very much intended), i listened to the original version and gods this is such a refreshing update. the mixing and vocal performance itself are so much better, and the music video didnt even need to be changed because of how good the OG is. as per usual a great song

This is one of those songs I didn't really like at first, but I like it the more I listen to it and now it's one of my favorites

YOOOO IM SO EXCITED TO SEE HOW IT COMES OUT SEEING HOW GOOD THE ORIGINAL SONG IS Edit: I'm noticing more elaborate editing and visuals with somewhat remix or hardcore like audio compared to the original (the voices are more harmonious and the instruments have a clearer beat)

Of course, Dan's lyrics are *less* refined, but thats what makes it better.

I really like that the remaster made the Joy Doctor's voice reverbed, almost sounding like it's coming from a megaphone. Makes him sound way more creepy and intimidating.

Oh my goodness, this song just makes you FEEL. This sort of dystopia is so up my alley and the lyrics reflect this concept so well, with many standout lines (“even the sky wouldn’t dare to be blue” - that took me a second) . Not to mention it’s a straight up gorgeous song that has so many parts I just keep repeating (especially “a brilliant day is forming” part). It nails the Beatles/Monkees vibe, and I particularly think their use as a musical contrast to the subject matter just works so perfectly. Also, funny thing, I watched some of your stream of this game and that rat piñata part you said would have been more harrowing if it weren’t in all the trailers. This video is where I first saw it and it actually really freaked me out lol, it really highlights the depravity joy covers up. God I just really love this concept. It’s just so sad.

This has a more "brain-washy" feel to it, its mesmerizing!

Omg i love the double meaning of “we’ll never be happier” since its presented as ‘theyre so happy theres no possible way they could get happier’ but its also that ‘their situation is so hopeless theres no way they can fix this’

Everytime I see you cover a games thematics or Characterization I'm astounded by how well you can fuse music into it, as I had stated in a few videos of yours a long while ago. To keep this brief, you need to get paid by developers to make a song for their games your that impressive.

I played we happy few because of this game, still need to go back and finish it, this might be just the reason I need.

This was the song that got me into Stupes' work, and I'm glad to see it reimagined.

God no matter how many times I listen to it ,it’s A JOY

"Did you take your joy this morning" has become my housemate and my reminder for taking our morning meds

Stupes' songs are the joy I need to take every morning! Plus, it's really interesting to listen to this remaster after recently listening to Tune into the Madness. All the parallels between the two songs and their respective games might be something interesting to think about.

3:50 I'm not going to lie, this is exactly how I feel when teachers at college demand that I cheer up.

I love how uncle Jack keeps his cool while also talking about the consequences of failing to take your joy. You can tell he seems sensitive with this topic like other wellingtons.

This song is so powerful that I finally bought We Happy Few after having it on my wishlist for years & it's my new belated hyperfixation. I truly cannot turn this up loud enough when I listen to it. If it were 3D/panned audio, I'd have it on repeat even more than I already do. I want the chorus to seep into my bones. And as always, the costume design & video production is stunning.

May just be the joy pills, but this song brings a smile to my face

I like this version a lot more, It does a really good job of conveying the feeling of utter derangement and makes me feel genuinely unsettled at times. Stupendous work, as always.

I love this game and this song is so good, the reference to the Beatles with the “wellies” is such a good pun and I like to think in the world of we happy few there would be bands like the Beatles

not kidding when I say this song makes me feel like I'm on joy and as someone who struggles faking their emotions it greatly helps 😋

It took me dozens of listenings and a remaster to finally realise why "history is made by those who grin" sounded so familiar. I absolutely adore every video you make, they're dripping with passion!

why does it sounds so familiar?

Ah, memories. This song was how I first found Stupendium, so it's a joy (pun intended) to see it given the remaster treatment. Good on you Stupes!

Joy is not needed when one has Stupendium content!

Your mustache makes your music videos burdened with glorious swag

Every little bit of tuning and little almost subconcious little edits really turned this already fantastic song into a real masterpiece

Lol, I was just watching your 2 year old streams and checking the game out. This is what I call timing!

Tbh this song sents chills down my spine but is also calming at the same time.

This song and the game itself fits what's going on today pretty accurately.

I thought the original was fantastic, but this remaster blew me away- The redone audio, additional sound effects, just fantastic! Akin to shadows scratching at the edge of one's vision in the dark, the faint whispers in the periphery- a stark contrast to the near bombastic chorus of "joyful" citizenry still under the effects of Joy. Just, fucking, brilliant- Another bop Stupendium!

Yes.

This man is a musical genius.

I'm happy to listen to this song again

So good it's worth the movie theater re-release.

The original was what got me to try out the game. This version is even more wonderful. I love your voice so much.

I so love all the false cadences in the instrumentals. The feeling that something’s never quite right becomes so pervasive.

You know what? I love how you can hear the change between the Original and the Remaster. The bass hits harder, you can hear each member of quartet's voice clearly, there's extra sfx which make the vibe increase tenfold, and I love the Uncle Jack part too much, just the audio distorting every few moments is perfect imo!

“The roses we grow here have a terrible smell” literal chills
