This is the kind of film/video deconstruction and analysis I can firmly get behind. Reminds me of metaphilm (do not google/go there, the domain/content appear to be resold/stolen and is now some sort of click-bait madness) - the best one IIRC was the Fight Club analysis taken into Calvin & Hobbes territory.

Here you go, safely saved by/on Archive.is, which helpfully includes a list of other Metaphilm.com archived pages.

I, at first, thought that this song & Scatman John were the creations for this guy's video. Now after a deep dive into the world of Scatman John I am legitimately surprised I somehow missed this song. Strangest thing I learned today is that "Everybody Jam " was so popular in Japan it inspired this Ultraman scat song. So I guess it makes sense that the song would inspire such a in-depth deconstruction.

That was right up my alley. Thanks for sharing.
