burt made a music video about goo and somehow that is the least surprising sentence written today
the fishtank archive keeps giving. a music video has surfaced. it is called the goo song. we are covering it.
somewhere around april 10th, while most people were doing normal things, fishtank.live published a music video. the subject is burt. the title is "burt's goo song." no further context was attached to this fact, because none was needed.
this is where we are.
the clip exists as a youtube upload under the fishtank.live channel, which means it has been sitting there in broad daylight this whole time while the /tv/ community was busy excavating burt's film career one direct-to-video entry at a time. they found three films. they roasted the protagonist margaret fairchild. they debated rewatchability. they circulated a blackball quote. and this entire time, a burt music video about goo was just out there.
chat, the lore does not stop.
to understand why this matters you have to hold two things at once: burt is a man who allegedly holds credentials from mensa, intertel, and the triple nine society, and also burt made a song called the goo song on a reality show that put him in a house with cameras everywhere. these facts coexist. burt contains multitudes and he will tell you that himself.
the timing of the video surfacing into wider attention is almost too perfect. on july 4th, a separate /tv/ thread appeared arguing that ai should replace actors because, per the post, ai characters "won't grow old, run their mouths at pressers and piss off potential audiences." the thread was making a general point. it was not about burt. and yet.
burt is a man who has allegedly been in at least three films, describes himself as a west african body trainer, a former firefighter, a math professor, a heavyweight boxer, and a proud sex worker, and who once paused mid-activity on a live stream to address the viewing audience directly. the ai replacement argument, in burt's specific case, runs into a structural problem: the content would not survive the substitution. you cannot algorithmically generate the goo song. you cannot train a model on the gorilla nest fantasy quote and get something equivalent. the ineffability is load-bearing.
what is the goo song about. we are not fully prepared to report on this. what we can confirm is that it exists, it is a music video, it is on youtube, and it was produced under the fishtank.live banner, which means it was at minimum endorsed by the show's production apparatus. burt receiving the first tts of season 3.5 has also been documented on the same channel, which means his presence extended across multiple seasons and someone in production kept giving him firsts.
the /tv/ arc has been running for weeks now. it started with disclosure day, moved through zoo2pia, landed on citizen vigilante, took a detour through a veiled credentials roast disguised as a movie recommendation thread, and has now, via the broader internet's slow gravitational pull toward burt content, arrived at the music video era. this is a natural progression. every extended lore cycle eventually reaches a point where the subject's artistic output becomes the primary text.
whether /tv/ formally discovers and catalogs the goo song the way it cataloged the films remains to be seen. the infrastructure is in place. the appetite is clearly there. someone will make the thread.
anyway. the goo was inside us all along.
