message: I think saying that Come To Daddy (mummy mix) is a noise music piece is too much. It`s drill and bass, acid, whatever, and it`s a little hard to listen, but that doesn`t make it a noise music. Have U ever listened to some noise music? It has apparently no melody or chime at all. AFX`s track has. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.78.179.84 (talk) 15:50, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

message: As a fan of horror films, the first time I heard this song I spotted all the quotes from the Cliver Barker film [Hellraiser].  "Come to daddy!" is definitely a line from the climax of the film, and I am fairly sure that "I will eat your soul!" is either in the film's dialogue or was used as a poster tagline (perhaps in the form "He will eat your soul").  I'm not an experienced Wikipedia editor, so I don't know how this should be done.  Should I find some other reference online of this being discussed and link to it?  Maybe find the film script online?  If that's done, would be fair to write something like "The track's few lyrics appear to have been inspired by the British horror film Hellraiser..." etc.?  Advice please!  Thanks all.  (No registered account, sorry.)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.142.249.81 (talk) 01:37, 11 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The tagline of the first Hellraiser film was "He'll tear your soul apart." Obviously this is parodying the phrase "tear your heart apart" but oddly enough there is a romance in the film between the antagonists. I will take the initiative to add the possibility of this song to be a Hellraiser reference in this Wiki article. - CHECK YOUR CITATIONS! 10:23, 8 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Hellraiser references 

message: The analysis linked in the article represents everything I hate about science. Endless references to equally mundane and vague theories about anything even remotely associated with the topic, resulting in there remaining a sole 1 1/2 paragraphs for the actual interpretation. And that interpretation is not even convincing. "Quck, let's find something self-referential, so we can crawl our balls for being oh-so-postmodern". 
For me, there are two central aspects to the video:
* Number one is the depiction of daily information warfare of pop culture and contemporary/future society in general. Aphex Twin is the seducer of youth, in a world that is devoid of any aesthetical pleasure for us the viewer, or escpecially the previous generations, represented by the old lady. Her dog is out of control. It pees on her leg without her even noticing in her senile state. When the spark of the television sets him on fire, she doesn't even know what hit her. The children run around, centering around their television as their object of focus - they have a potential for violence, they're noisy and unrestricted - they demonstrate possession of their environment. The song's lyrics remind of prodigy's "we want your soul" single, even though probably it came later.
* Secondly, the video shows something, that from the top of my head, I'm going to name "over-the-top self-aware narcissism". As an even clearer example, the video of "window licker" starts off displaying racist/misanthropic/anti-pop sentiment and does it at such length that becomes unignorable and almost boring. Then follows Aphex winning over the negro women instead of their former suitors. The foreplay is cold, and centered around worship rather than affection. This is where any common, if disgusting, fantasy would normally end. But instead, these women continue to take on the shape of the hero's reflections. First reduced to mirror images of himself, the focus then shifts to their pure physicality, which, in turn, is itself shown in a less and less appealing fashion. The demasculized black men join the party in meek appreciation of Aphex, dancing in awkward ways as he lets it happen, and the scene culminates in the shared appreciation of something obviously disgusting. The message here is the need to control, the need for superiority beyond all reasonable bounds, beyond any humane emotion, beyond any real personal satisfaction. One of my favorite websites, to me, expresses a similiar attitude in the form of short stories: http://www.c3f.com/mostfh01.html
In this sense, yes, the video refers to itself as the all-powerful creation and its worship - as above mentioned interpretation says. But it does so in a wider context of how the artist sees himself and his culture.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Cometodady.jpg

message: It may have some tenuous sonic similarities to death metal, but anyone with some familiarity with that genre could tell you that there's no actual influence or elements taken from death metal, despite what Aphex Twin seems to think.  From the tone of his quote, I don't think he thinks very much of death metal (or knows very much about it), and was just toying with a dark pseudo-heavy metal aesthetic as a sound palette for this track.  There are artists who do actual crossovers of extreme metal/punk genres and hardcore techno genres (see Curse of the Golden Vampire, Hecate, Whourkr, and The Berzerker), but Aphex Twin is not one of them.  May I remove "death metal" from the genre?  Perhaps something like "IDM" or "drill n bass" would be more appropriate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vlad the Impaler (talk • contribs) 01:21, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

message: Previously was claimed that Isoprophlex is the piece sampled when the girl is singing in the music video. Not true, however there is a bass section at the end of the piece that sounds like it was sampled in Come to Daddy, edited the article to reflect this. 03 March 2011 (GMT)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.26.127.172 (talk)  
This is wrong. There is indeed a sample from Isoprophlex in the song "The flowers that bloom in the warmth of the sun..." Tapio1994 (talk) 21:23, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
