RUclips really should support animators, instead they make the system perfect for fucking gamers and vloggers like seriously people will make fun of this shit in like 5 years time and people that have an actual skill like animators still have a job (as hard, tiring and frustrating it will be)
+Rin In A Bin True but I think it's also a good idea to think about longevity do they honestly think that the gaming thing will last forever? I guess they'll just drop it and then move onto the next thing like they did with skits and parodies.
Some Icelandic Dude I feel that the gamers and vloggers are the crap that fills the gap as we wait to begin our adventures of our life in the land of RUclips animators. 🙂
I keep coming back to this. 'Candid desires still waiting to dry off' and 'to break patterns and evolve' just speak so much to me. I work in design and so much of this rings true to the creative process I go through daily. Loads of love for your videos and work, Yotam. I look forward to your uploads.
One thing I notice about your birthday songs is that each one grows on me as time goes by. Listened to this yesterday and was like "Ah ok". Now I'm listening to it multiple times over. Great work man
Every fucking time, EVERY FUCKING TIME I see a new birthday video from you I think how, HOW THE FUCK has it been a whole year since the last one!? what the hell!! Yotam, please, god dammit please tell me it hasn't been a year already. :(
My birthday is on the 11th so this is like a birthday present every year for the past 6 years (since I've been a fan of him) I seriously love these and relate quite a bit. Just turned 19 now
So, when you started singing I teared up... I don't know, it's just all the anticipation plus the song .. like, no joke. I love your work so much, I value these birthday songs more than any other events in the year, just so you know.
I relate to these so much. Especially since i'm turning 26 next month on the 18. Oh, how time flies. Feels like you've just uploaded the 'Birthday 19' not that long ago... The day you stop making these will be a very sad moment. So don't stop because I look forward to these every year. You'll always be one of my favorite animators/musicians.
Yotam I've been watching these ever since my 8th grade summer......I'm just finishin my first year of college and I still love seein these. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ONCE AGAIN!
Earlier today, I happened to remember this series out of thin air. Maybe it's since life has been kicking my ass for a while now, and I remembered the empathetic nature of your art. Now it seems so surreal that it just so happens your birthday is tomorrow. I'd like to mention that you have no idea how much not only I, but everyone here value your contributions. For that, all I can say is thank you.
I’ve been a fan of yotam and his animations for the last few years now but the birthday videos have always had a special place to me. I feel dumb for never noticing until recently but did you notice that in almost all of his birthday videos he puts two turtles somewhere in his song or animation?
This one of the most unique series I've ever seen I always come back year after year and find it calming to hear an actual update on how life is going for yotam. Its comforting somehow. I feel somewhat similar I guess when I'm creating anything I just want anything to come out I need the outlet but the amount of work and self criticism turns me off of the idea and I try something else. It's kinda inspiring to know that yotam still brings great things to life even with the struggle of creating. Please keep creating whatever makes you happy yotam.
Every year on my birthday, I watch your birthday video that applies to the age in turning. I’m 26 today, and just like every year, this song hits home. Love these
"All comedians want to be musicians, and all animators wanna be bakers." as far as I can tell Yotom is a musician, animator, comedian, and a baker. living the dream Yotom, living the dream.
I can't believe I've been following you for around 12-13 years. and you're still one of my all time favourite animator and human. Even though you're as elusive as Nessy you still bring me such joy with your animations and face. Happy birthday and I wish for you to be financially stable and be able to enjoy creating as long as you want :)
Was scared he wouldn't be making one this year. As in one of his recent Birthday songs he said he might round it up to 10 and take a break. Really glad to see this!
it just hit me that ive been watching your stuff for at least 10 years. Thanks for making consistently good stuff for all this time. You inspired me to make stuff and draw more when I was younger (and older) and thats really cool. luv u
It makes me real happy how you catalogue your birthdays. It's real interesting that this one not only covers your own needs, but also expresses concern for your audience! Pretty cool dude!
It feels weird realizing that it's the "oh I got an email notification for Yotam's new birthday vid" time of the year because you realize a whole year has passed ,and then you realize how many times you remember getting email notifications for these time sure does fly huh
If was making a cartoon, Yotam would be the first person I contact. His animation is so unique and his humour blends with it so well. I think he is a truly talented individual and goddamn me he deserves to be fucking rich.
yo yotam, first of all happy birthday dude! ive been watching your stuff since i can remember, 22 now. i find myself filled with thoughts of doubt and despair radiating around my need to create and impress people and i find your music and animation very relatable. smoke a bowl for us boys and see your vid next year :)
Yotam, as long as I've been a fan of yours you have never created something that didn't make me laugh or feel nice. I thought maybe I just gave poor criticism, but I think you just always make lasting films that are fantastic. Thank you so much for providing joy in my life. I will eagerly look forward to your next idea for as long you create them Edit: oops! Also happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!
after 12 years of birthday songs, it's started to feel like... like this is a journey we went on together. i almost feel like i've been there with yotam, the past 12 years. the man bears his soul to us once a year, and it feels personal and special, even though it's a youtube video free for anyone to watch. i'm emotionally invested in yotam to the point where i feel like the past 12 years have been shared, somehow.
Happy birthday Yotam! I've followed and have seen your work for more than 10years now and you are still my favorite animator. Here's to another year and all good wishes to you, cheers!
happy birthday yotam, i am turning 26 in a week weeks and it was good to remember the deviantart days and watching your nameless videos ~ten years ago.
Take all the time you need. I just left school to pursue a career in sound design ( mostly freelance work ) so I can relate to how draining it is. Love u bby
this has been the "happiest" "birthday" in a while, makes me glad, happy birthday yotam, you inspire me to be a tiny bit better every year at least. luv ya
Happy Birthday, Yotam. And blimey, what a year it's been. This year has felt like million years long (metaphorically). So many events, so little time. But one thing that hasn't changed is my enjoyment of your work. I always look forward to your animations, no matter how long the wait is. It upsets me that more support isn't given to animators like you... On RUclips, at least. But anyway, I'm rooting for you. A toast to another year.
Feels like Birthday 25 went up only a month ago. Happy Birthday man and congrats on the appartment. watching these videos is like catching up with an old friend
I love you so much dude. I'm just glad to see your doing well. Keep up living and post when you can because I love your humor and your style. Keep it up!
Knowing that we're pretty much the exact same age makes me a little depressed. My patchy facial hair remains patchy, my metabolism is dying much quicker than it should and I still don't have a proper living situation... Just under the table rent and such. I also have never applied or tried to improve myself, even within my own hobbies and interests. Life is scary man. At least you'll be leaving behind some wonderful videos if nothing else.
Is it weird that I get more excited about Yotam's birthdays than my own because of these songs? Happy Birthday, and thanks for the many years of entertainment you've delivered so far. Here's to many more :)
Been watching you since the AlbinoBlackSheep days, incredibly happy you've decided to continue these for this long, as long as these don't take up to much time of your year I strongly hope to see these yearly throughout your life and mine, this series will forever be a time capsule of a close look at some core feelings about life that people will be able to relate to til the end of time. Keep up the good work baby xoxoxo
yotam honestly growing up alongside with you and listening to your lyrics made me the person i am today, sure makes me feel a bit depressive but i want to thank you because the things you make, makes me look inside myself and re-evaluate things internally . thats a pretty good skill youve taught me
I've been with this channel for five years and it barely seems like one you've been producing amazing stuff for 10 fucking years man I love yours stuff
silly string is one of those albums that means more and more to me as i get older. thanks for that, and for everything else you make. happy birthday yotam.
You are super talented, dude. Take as long as you need, but we both know that even when it feels like a grind to make something, the feeling of FINISHING something makes it worthwhile
Every year around this time I look forward to two things, my own birthday passing by so I don't have to worry about it anymore, and your birthday song. Thanks for keeping up the good work, Yotam. Happy Birthday :)
You are such a talented artist, you're honestly my inspiration and deserve so much more than you're getting right now, you are unappreciated in your time my man
Nice to hear that you're doing well, conundrums not included. You're one of the few animators that I share with my (admittedly small) group of friends every time you upload. Just want to let you know you not only make me smile, but even make me emit an under-chuckle :) . [also the whole, "whoa, time, amiright?" thing]
It's really depressing for me because I turn the same age in two months, and these birthday videos hit home for me since they're almost always what I'm going through as well.
Being the same age as yourself Yotam, it;s great to grow together with these videos each year and have the existential crisis loom that much greater...
I've been watching you since I was 17... I'm 23 now 😢 and I have always shared your fear of time passing by and wondering am I at where I should be. I always go back searching for your videos, especially around your birthday
Bro, I love your stuff. RUclips sucks for money right now and take all the time you need to make your content. You could not post for years, and suddenly a post shows up and I'll watch it.
dear lord the last one felt like it was so recent, time is passing too quickly and I'm scared
Yeah
4 years have passed since you posted this comment
you commented this 7 years ago.
@@Grouchator time truly is a frozen river
Yotam how has it been another year already. I feel sick, these are coming quicker and quicker each year. I'm going to die soon
very positive thinking!
Captivus holy shit lmao
hell yeah dude
Yotam. Keep doing this please. You made my day.
I know right!
Yotam I love you sign my existential fear
He bakes. He bakes bread, cakes, pies, himself, cookies...
RUclips really should support animators, instead they make the system perfect for fucking gamers and vloggers like seriously people will make fun of this shit in like 5 years time and people that have an actual skill like animators still have a job (as hard, tiring and frustrating it will be)
Can you really blame a business for wanting to maximise profit?
Why would you put Rin in a bin? D:
+Rin In A Bin True but I think it's also a good idea to think about longevity do they honestly think that the gaming thing will last forever? I guess they'll just drop it and then move onto the next thing like they did with skits and parodies.
Some Icelandic Dude wrong only vloggers the gamer rising has died so they show the deevalution of human kind through vlogs
Some Icelandic Dude I feel that the gamers and vloggers are the crap that fills the gap as we wait to begin our adventures of our life in the land of RUclips animators. 🙂
I measure how much of my time I've taken advantage of (or not) in a year every time one of these comes out.
Happy Birthday.
I keep coming back to this. 'Candid desires still waiting to dry off' and 'to break patterns and evolve' just speak so much to me. I work in design and so much of this rings true to the creative process I go through daily.
Loads of love for your videos and work, Yotam. I look forward to your uploads.
I've been watching these since i was 18, i'm 21 now. I hate it.
Don't worry, you're not really old until you're 25.
Franky Frost I'm 28 ;(
I'm 17 :l
Franky Frost only a couple more years now..
25= baby age
One thing I notice about your birthday songs is that each one grows on me as time goes by. Listened to this yesterday and was like "Ah ok". Now I'm listening to it multiple times over. Great work man
Every fucking time, EVERY FUCKING TIME I see a new birthday video from you I think how, HOW THE FUCK has it been a whole year since the last one!? what the hell!! Yotam, please, god dammit please tell me it hasn't been a year already. :(
ah...my annual depression check point
Kudos to keep the tradition of your birthday song :D (check the first one of them)...WOW 11 YEARS...THAT deserves a medal men...
My birthday is on the 11th so this is like a birthday present every year for the past 6 years (since I've been a fan of him) I seriously love these and relate quite a bit. Just turned 19 now
my birthday has always been a day after his. it’s an 8 year difference which seemed a LOT bigger when i was only 13.
I NEVER CLICKED SO FAST, EVER. (happy birthday yotam :) )
Bacon Bits same
Happy Birthday Yotam :) I love your videos
yeah
You can really tell this was the last year before he got really busy
So, when you started singing I teared up... I don't know, it's just all the anticipation plus the song .. like, no joke. I love your work so much, I value these birthday songs more than any other events in the year, just so you know.
Also isn't it your job to make us laugh instead of crying? Well, happy birthday anyways !
I relate to these so much. Especially since i'm turning 26 next month on the 18. Oh, how time flies. Feels like you've just uploaded the 'Birthday 19' not that long ago... The day you stop making these will be a very sad moment. So don't stop because I look forward to these every year. You'll always be one of my favorite animators/musicians.
Yotam, I feel you, constant baking, new apartment, age 26. Your videos make me glad. Keep being a great bard!
Yotam I've been watching these ever since my 8th grade summer......I'm just finishin my first year of college and I still love seein these. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ONCE AGAIN!
I still remember when Birthday 22 came out... how the hell has it been so long? Seeing these come out every year is still one of the best feelings.
Yotam I truly love these videos. something about them is just so real and soothing or idk what it is really.
Every year I'm thankful for finding this series, it hits me in the heart strings every time and I smile every time.
Earlier today, I happened to remember this series out of thin air. Maybe it's since life has been kicking my ass for a while now, and I remembered the empathetic nature of your art. Now it seems so surreal that it just so happens your birthday is tomorrow. I'd like to mention that you have no idea how much not only I, but everyone here value your contributions.
For that, all I can say is thank you.
another step closer to the sweet release of death
I’ve been a fan of yotam and his animations for the last few years now but the birthday videos have always had a special place to me. I feel dumb for never noticing until recently but did you notice that in almost all of his birthday videos he puts two turtles somewhere in his song or animation?
my 26th birthday is slowly sneaking up on me and boy does this fit well, haahahah. glad to know i'm not alone after all these years
This one of the most unique series I've ever seen I always come back year after year and find it calming to hear an actual update on how life is going for yotam. Its comforting somehow.

Every year on my birthday, I watch your birthday video that applies to the age in turning. I’m 26 today, and just like every year, this song hits home. Love these
I do the exact same thing each year too. I'm turning 26 in 1 hour.
@@dancingdude32 happy birthday man!
and... we grew older.
i can't believe it's been another year. happy birthday yotam. lov u kisses xoxo
Happy Birthday Yotam!! These get better and better every year.
Yotam's birthday videos are one of the few things a wait every year to show up on my feed, when they appear they make my happy.
"All comedians want to be musicians, and all animators wanna be bakers." as far as I can tell Yotom is a musician, animator, comedian, and a baker. living the dream Yotom, living the dream.

It took me nearly a year to remember where I had heard Harrison’s voice actor before. I’m glad I found him.
hell yea! cant wait to hear the new album, happy birthday bro! love your music
No way it's been a year
Happy bday, Yotam!
Happy birthday, Dudesky.
That was supposed to be like "dude-skee" but it looks more like "dude sky," and I think I'm okay with that.
I love seeing these every year. This will be an incredible time capsule of your life some day.
Was scared he wouldn't be making one this year. As in one of his recent Birthday songs he said he might round it up to 10 and take a break. Really glad to see this!

Man, i am so relieved to know he is being the voice of harrison in camp camp. Doing more things makes someone become more so keep up
It feels weird realizing that it's the "oh I got an email notification for Yotam's new birthday vid" time of the year because you realize a whole year has passed ,and then you realize how many times you remember getting email notifications for these
time sure does fly huh
If was making a cartoon, Yotam would be the first person I contact. His animation is so unique and his humour blends with it so well. I think he is a truly talented individual and goddamn me he deserves to be fucking rich.
This was probably the best birthday song you've done. Your singing has gotten so much better.

Edit: oops! Also happy birthday!!!!!!!!!!
The wisenheimer in me immediately started baking conspiracy theories when i saw that "podcast"
I continue to forget how close our birthdays are until this video comes out. Love you man.
These come out on my birthday every year and every year I can relate to them more. Thanks for making these videos, man, I always look forward to it.

enjoyed every video please never stop uploading.
I can't believe you're 26 already and I'm now soon to be 20?!? Time sure flies by quickly.

happy birthday yotam
I've been with this channel for five years and it barely seems like one
you've been producing amazing stuff for 10 fucking years man I love yours stuff
Happy belated birthday! This vid actually showed up in my recommended so youtube hasn't completely forgotten about you!
you are and will always be my favorite animator. thank you for shaping my childhood and inspiring me to make cartoons myself. happy birthday u boss.
every year these bring a smile to my face. even when times aren't so great. thanks for this i needed it
I feel like I have been growing up with Yotam's increasingly worse depression each year. 18 now. Love you Yotam.
So happy for a new video, was so excited when I saw the sketches in Trip Tank
it makes my birthdays better every year. the wait is no big deal
silly string is one of those albums that means more and more to me as i get older. thanks for that, and for everything else you make. happy birthday yotam.
I look forward to this every year since we share the same birthday (I guess with thousands of other people), but it's still very special.
You are super talented, dude. Take as long as you need, but we both know that even when it feels like a grind to make something, the feeling of FINISHING something makes it worthwhile
Another year another animation. This is becoming an anniversary for me honestly
I can always count on you to upload at least ONCE every year. thank you
Beautiful Yotam,
I've never seen a creator as passionate as you.
I wish you well buddy.
Every year around this time I look forward to two things, my own birthday passing by so I don't have to worry about it anymore, and your birthday song. Thanks for keeping up the good work, Yotam.
Happy Birthday :)
You are such a talented artist, you're honestly my inspiration and deserve so much more than you're getting right now, you are unappreciated in your time my man
Happy Birthday my dude, thanks for all the years of chuckles and laughs.
#neverforgetyotam
I will continue watching your channel until birthday 90, my friend.
Happy bday yotam! so many years of rewatched videos. its never getting boring!
I look forward to your birthday more than I do my own.
same holy shit
Happy Birthday Yotam!! I'll always support you :)
Nice to hear that you're doing well, conundrums not included. You're one of the few animators that I share with my (admittedly small) group of friends every time you upload. Just want to let you know you not only make me smile, but even make me emit an under-chuckle :) .

It's really depressing for me because I turn the same age in two months, and these birthday videos hit home for me since they're almost always what I'm going through as well.
It is shocking how closely my life has mimicd Yotam's up to this point. Thanks for the songs, I show them to all my starving artist friends!
I can't believe I've been around since birthday 20...this is like a consistent reminder that I'm slowly dying. Good stuff. 👍
Being the same age as yourself Yotam, it;s great to grow together with these videos each year and have the existential crisis loom that much greater...
I've been watching you since I was 17... I'm 23 now 😢 and I have always shared your fear of time passing by and wondering am I at where I should be. I always go back searching for your videos, especially around your birthday
It's not a complete year until we get one of your beautiful birthday songs.
Bro, I love your stuff. RUclips sucks for money right now and take all the time you need to make your content. You could not post for years, and suddenly a post shows up and I'll watch it.
Been watching these since 2010.
I'm 27 and I can relate to your videos :D
Happy Birthday 🎉
These get better and sadder every year, great!
