Hey guys! Thanks for the views on this video!

"Your parents are dead and I can't stop laughing" this part of the game was my favourite! I stood for ages listening to this before I realised that I was meant to be controlling Robin

[DanSolo]

This is why Mark Hamill had so little screen time and no lines in the Force Awakens.

"So you're making another Arkham game and want me to provide the voice of the Joker again?  I don't know.  I think I'm overdoing the Joker.  Besides, we're making the next Star...wait what?  I get a musical number?  I'll call you back.  Hello, J.J.?  I don't think I'm going to make it."

"I'm even dead! And I can't stop laughing."
Gets me every time.

[arespeverell]

I swear Mark Hamill is slowly going insane when he voices the Joker.

[TechHug]

I like to imagine that Hamill was bored and just started singing this on a whim, someone heard him, and then they told him that this has to be in the game.

Jokers plan all along was to get this song stuck in everyone's head, GOD DAMNIT

[CJPooz]

“Take me on home to the Asylum.” Memories just started coming back

[kingmasn]

Take me on home to the asylum
Never alone in the asylum
Anarchy ruled, it was wild
But through it all, you never smiled
Joke's on you, I'm in your head so
Look who's laughing now!

Remember in Arkham City
I killed your girl, so pretty
That was the night you let me die
But when I looked you in the eye
That's when I knew we'd be together
Look who's laughing now!

I'm stuck in your head and I'm laughing!
I filled you with dread and I can't stop laughing!
Your parents are dead and I can't stop laughing!
What else can I do?
Now I'm part of you

I am the Clown Prince of Crime
And we've had a hell of a time
You're part of me, I'm part of you
And now there's nothing left to do
I just can't wait till I'm in control
Who'll be laughing then?

I drove you round the bend and I'm laughing
I'm with you till the end and I can't stop laughing
I killed all your friends and I can't stop laughing
*crazed laughter*
Oh yeah!

Think I can taste your fear
Now that my time is near
I'm in your blood, I'm so alive
I only wish you'd let me drive
It won't be long till I make you kill
Who'll be laughing then?

Barbara's dead and I'm laughing
Jason Todd's dead and I can't stop laughing
I'm even dead and I can't stop laughing
What else can I do?
Now I'm part of you

I drove you round the bend and I'm laughing
I'm with you till the end and I can't stop laughing
I killed all your friends and I can't stop laughing
I'm cock-a-doodle-do
All because of you

I'm stuck in your head and I'm laughing
I filled you with dread and I can't stop laughing
Your parents are dead and I can't stop laughing
*crazed laughter*

I'm stuck in your head and I'm laughing
I filled you with dread and I can't stop laughing
Your parents are dead and I can't stop laughing
What else can I do?
Now I'm part of you

"Your parents are dead and I can't stop laughing." lol

[thomasj]

I know it's small but I'd love a version with "Nobody serenades you but me Bats! take it away boys! " in there.

Staying in character: a challenge.
Singing: a challenge.
Singing in character: big challenge.
Singing this song in character as the Joker: several attempts because of how much fun he must have been having.

Mark Hamill is my favorite Joker, purely because he captures the essence of who the Joker is at his core. A random minded goofball who might kill you because he doesn't like your shoes, but who might buy you a new pair of shoes because he wants to kill you but he wants you to die with a nice new pair of shoes and a smile. Or he might give you the shoes because he was stealing them and they were the wrong size and no one in his crew could wear them, but you're the right size and he just wants to offload the shoes he and his crew can't use.

But best of all, Mark Hamill made his debut as the Joker in a Christmas episode. Christmas With The Joker. Singing Jingle Bells, Batman Smells, then using a rocket concealed in the Christmas tree he was decorating, still singing the whole way! He had to be having a ball playing the Joker, and I'm so happy I got to experience every single episode, movie, and game that had him!

"I killed all you're friends and I can't stop laughing!"
"You're parents are dead, and I can't stop laughing!"
"What else can I do? Now I'm part of you~."
"I'm even dead and I can't stop laughing!"
Joker is the best.
Mark Hamill did such a wonderful job voicing this character. I laughed so hard because of multiple lines he said, this character is hilarious!

[cutsieproductions]

I can’t be the only one imagining J doing some broadway-esq musical number while singing this while Batman is tied to a chair with a raised eyebrow.

[SmokingSeatReturns]

Can't spell Mark Hamil without Arkham!

[amandapartain]

Don't you just love Mark Hamill as the Joker?! Good stuff right here, good stuff

[skulltronprimex]

Mark Hamill will always be the best joker because his joker impression fits perfectly for the joker

[bradiec]

I originally didn’t know I had to disarm the bombs and I thought it was just a cutscene so I died only then I realized that I had to do more than jam out to this song

[NoahPopejoy]

Can we please agree that Joker honestly has some concealed singing chops?

[iambatman]

"Barbara is dead and I can't stop laughing." LOL, that was my favorite part!
