I like that Simon wasn’t really worried during the song, he probably thought Candy Queen was relatively harmless the same way Ice King was when capturing princesses
Simon: "So this happens a lot" Winter: "not this part, this is an escalation.."
I think this is an interesting dive into Bubblegum's mind. We know the crown obviously makes the wearer crazy, however, Ice King was always relatively harmless which is just a reflection of how Simon would never try to harm others. However, we also know Bubblegum has a bit of a dark side, so Candy Queen wanting to actually kill someone is a reflection of it.
My favorite interpretation is that the Candy Queen knew to some extent that something was wrong with her and misinterpreted it as a love for Winter King, since he was the key to losing her madness. So the whole blending thing was a very loose idea to "fix" herself
I knew right away it was Princess Bubblegum, but I didn't realize until this song that she was still voiced by Hynden Walch. It's nice to hear her doing a different voice from the one she usually does.
It’s interesting how Simon and PB the most structured ordered characters become this insane with the crown, imagine how insane a wild person would become after wearing the crown
So we know that the ice king was after princesses because he missed Betty, but what if PB was obsessed with the Winter King because she knew he was the one behind her madness? She just confused her association with love instead because of the madness?? It’s so cool how madness is depicted in this show!!!
I love the extra "and you" at Simon cause Candy Queen probably didn't think up this song for a second Simon.
The way her piano straps form a dress when she's laying down, huge props to the storyboard artist.
"That's actually a nice metaphor." "Not a metaphor!" I cried 🤣🤣
This song goes HARD. The " cold and the warm" part gives me chills.
I think the reason why this PB wanted to be together with Winter King was because the madness wanted to go back to the crown and its host(The reason why they belong together). At the same time PB wanted to kill Simon for making her crazy(Eating the icecream, wanting to blend him). That's why this version is crazier and more murderous than Og Ice King.
She’s PB, Spinel, and Bon Bon all in one!!!
If old Ice King had these bangers on him I would have stayed low key, this shit is a banger
Hynden Walch did such an incredible job. I had no idea it was her performing as Candy Queen the whole time. All the dopamine I could ever want is contained in the moment where Candy Queen proclaims "Not a Metaphor" followed by dramtically playing her synth, and Brian David Gilbert's delivery of "this is an escalation"
For anyone wondering why Bubblegum seems crazier than Ice King, it's because Bubblegum was always crazy in comparison to Simon, Simon was a pretty sane guy, which is why the Crown's magic corrupted him and made him into the crazy wizard, but Bubblegum was always sadistic and insane so Winter King projecting his magic on her only made even crazier
Best clip of the song so far! I'm glad you left in the little banter between Simon and Winter King!
Candy Queen rolling off the bed at the end absolutely kills me, just ugh shoot this show directly into my veins.
I just realized that the candy she shoots from her hands during this song is probably not just a visual effect - the madness unlocked her latent Candy Elemental powers!
chilling and enjoying the musical number "And so im gonna put you into a blender with me~" shocked faces
