I do love it when people enjoy Your New Boyfriend the way it's meant to be (a comedic/not serious song), because I've seen too many reactors take it too serious even though the lyrics are overly self-aware.
Wilbur has disowned the album Your City Gave Me Asthma, with the exception of perhaps Saline Solution and La Jolla. Back in January of 2021, he officially stated that the album belongs to the fans of his work.
@@wiltedblade La Jolla is the only song from the album that he still really likes while Saline Solution is about his hypochondria. Despite this, he still has stated that the entire album belongs to the fans.
Personal favourite will always be Since I Saw Vienna for me. The whole album holds a special place in my heart tho. It’s half the reason I can play guitar despite having dysgraphia, and guitar is a huge part of my self-care now. I genuinely believe Wilbur is one of the geniuses of our era, I can’t express enough what this man has done for every community he’s touched; not just with music, pretty much everything he puts out is a masterpiece. He’s broken the internet several times over, sometimes from behind the scenes. I’ve studied creative writing for over 6 years, and when he wrote his first story I was sitting there taking notes. (Obviously there were pitfalls to it that you can only navigate through experience but the fact that it’s as phenomenal as it is almost feels unfair lmao)
As well as the dsmp, that was also a massive minecraft role play project and it brought a lot of people together and let streamers grow, while he didn't create the dsmp he was a massive part of it
said exactly what I wanted to!! since I saw vienna has been my favorite since I first heard it and it got me into guitar playing and now I can play pretty much every song from ycgma except for your sister was right n saline solution lol
!! Just for some information: Your New Boyfriend is actually the third part of a trilogy of satirical songs called "The E-Girl Trilogy" (I'm in Love With An E-Girl, Internet Ruined Me, and Your New Boyfriend). The other two songs you reacted to are from his serious solo album Your City Gave Me Asthma (which I personally am a huge fan of and would love to see your reaction to the rest of the songs. "Who hurt the boy" is definitely a great description of the whole album lmao). He has said that he's doing much better since writing the album and even went as far as to "disown" the album, saying that it actually belongs to the listeners it has helped get through tough times and not him, which is really sweet :) Thank you so much for reacting to Wilbur and Lovejoy, your reactions are super genuine and your positive energy is contagious! I'm really happy to see such a wonderful person experience one of my favourite creators for the first time!!
saline solution, since i saw vienna and internet ruined me are definitely his best solo songs imo, been crazy obsessed with his music since i heard it for the first time
"Your City Gave Me Asthma" is more serious EP but it's really good. The "Maybe I Was Boring" (MIWB)EP is happier. I recommend listening to everyone of these. "Maybe I Was Boring" was one of the first Wilbur's production. It's good though. Also you have "I'm in love with an E-girl" It has more funny things. In Maybe I Was Boring there is a song named "It's all futile It's all pointless" it's first version of Lovejoy song of the same song. Wilbur has a lot of things that are very interesting but I can't name all of them.
from what I've heard Your City Gave Me Asthma ( album where Jubilee Line and Your Sister Was Right is from ) is a vent album. basically songs he did out of his feelings, which by the sound of the songs from the album, are pretty sad ones
If you like Wilbur and Lovejoy, I'd definitely recommend James Marriot. He's also a twitch streamer turned musician, and just recently started a tour. His music goes hard
So glad you liked Lovejoy´s music and Wilbur´s as well! I really liked both of your reactions, it´s really nice you took the time to look up Wilbur before this video. I think these three songs are a very good representation of Wilbur´s music overall. He has some comedy songs, and then there´s the EP "Your City Gave me Asmtha" (There are also four more songs from another one called "Maybe I Was Boring").
the juxtaposition of "Your new boyfriend " to "Your sister was right" was really crazy. I knew all of his released music(Lovejoy, YCGMA, maybe i was boring, His egirl tirilogy & joke somgs like "i'm smart") but its still a hard 180 and a gut punch. Also, i dont know how much you know already from the comments but Jubilee line is about a train station in london, and its about how people comitt on the underground by jumping infront of the trains and the government simply put barriers to prevent the jumpers instead of helping those people. To me it hits home.
!cw- mentions of suicide! at the lyrics "there's a reason london puts barriers on the tube line" and you said "i think that got dark" wilbur was referring to the stations that have screen doors. they were put in place in the early 2000s to prevent people from jumping onto the tracks of an oncoming train. it's not very fun to think about but unfortunately it got a time they had to put the barriers up :( (the new elizabeth line has them too) love your videos!
The album “Your City gave me Asthma” Wilbur wrote when he was going through a very dark time for him during the pandemic. That’s what I heard at least. 👍🏻
I love seeing people react to Jubilee line because when the ending starts it's like "oh yo this goes hard" then you hear the lyrics and it's like "wh- UH-."
I really recommend the fall, perfume, and sex sells by lovejoy!! Theyre really good as well!! Also, “hes in your bed and im in your twitch chat” will always be iconic.
as a major wilbur soot fan and brit here is some facts; your new boyfriend is the end of a comedy trilogy (called the egirl trilogy ) he wrote making fun of people (specifically men) who treat women on the internet badly and simps. The character - fandom dubbed as simpbur (wilbur + simp) - has been chasing this egirl who he follows on twitch, thinking he should be her boyfriend (which you'll probably discover from listening the rest of the egirl trilogy). This songs chorus wasn't made by him but was made by his close friend and fellow streamer TommyInnit (who he constantly says is his brother), he also got lovejoy's song concrete on the playlist (because they where going to remove it from pebble brain). your sister was right is a song will doesn't talk about much and i don't know a lot about it, but it's mainly about wilbur and his ex-girlfriend. he has stated that this track is mainly for the fandom to put a meaning behind. the jubilee line is a tube (subway) route in london which is known for having a high amount of suicide rates and the rail workers and people who wait for the train don't care and put up the barriers to prevent it ('there is a reason that london puts barriers on the tube lines') and if they do commit, they end up upset that they can't get to their destinations . Will didn't like this and wrote this song based on his experiences in living in london and felt it was wrong the victims where being dehumanised. He also ended up getting asthma from the city and as a 'hypochondriac' he added more onto it through the song 'saline solution' if you want more songs like jubilee line and your sister was right - i recommend checking out since i saw vienna and saline solution if you like your new boyfriend - check out the rest of the egirl trilogy (in order it's; i'm in love with an egirl, internet has ruined me and then your new boyfriend) and soft boy if you want more lovejoy - i really recommend the fall and either they're cover of los campesino's song knee deep at APT or oh yeah, you gonna cry (my personal favourite) and if you like lovejoy, they take huge inspo from the band los campesinos and arctic monkeys loving the reactions mate can't wait to see more
*For anyone curious and wanting to check Wilbur and LoveJoy out;* Start with the "Are you Alright?" EP ( its just 4 songs) and then the Peeble Brain Ep (as much as i love the AYA? EP, I think they really hit a stride with Peeble Brain, specially when you hit The Fall), then LJ's solo songs, Knee deep cover and THEN Call me What you like Then maybe go onto Wilbur's solo stuff if you want a treat (Your City Gave Me Asthma Album, its arguably his best solo album, then Maybe I was boring EP, tho im not as big fan as it but its still not bad) Also Wilbur has a solo parody music series the "E-Girl" Trilogy. Its more memey with him portraying a "Nice Guy" during the songs but that doesn't mean they arnt amazingly made, Your New Boyfriend is a bop!
Also Sonce I saw Vienna from the Your City Give Me Asthma album is hands down my fave ever. Love me a sad song and was one of the first I ever heard from him long before LoveJoy was a thing
if you’re interested, the majority of the YCGMA album is pretty easy to figure out on guitar as long as you’ve got it in the right tuning. Jubilee Line, La Jolla and Saline Solution is on CGDGBE. Since I Saw Vienna and Losing Face is on regular tuning. I’ve forgotten what Your Sister Was Right and I’m Sorry Boris uses but it deviates slightly off CGDBE iirc.
Hello hello! I made another video where I listen to Saline Solution and Since I Saw Vienna: ruclips.net/video/cf4G2jNAWk8/видео.html If you missed my Lovejoy Reaction Video, it's here: ruclips.net/video/LVQo2iP9BWg/видео.html And I will be doing a listen through of there new EP Next Month on the channel!
“my city gave me asthma” album is about his breakup he had when he was in his early 20’s (Just some extra info) Edit: the last part of jubilee line was about something Wilbur witnessed on the London tube where someone took their life. As he said and i quote “yeah, this is londons fault” and that’s how it was added in. Love Wilbur
I’m pretty sure Jubilee line is about how they put fences on railroad tracks to stop people from jumping into them and you should really listen to losing face by Wilbur it’s really good it’s one of my favorite songs from this album
Damn dude I love the vibes of your videos, it’s like showing your friend a song you like and they enjoy it and you’re like HELL YEAH I KNEW YOU WOULD LIKE IT
TW-Mention of Suicide Jubilee line is about how it annoyed Wilbur that all the council was doing to prevent people committing suicide is putting barriers on the jubilee line since its a really fast train
The Your City Gave Me Asthma album which is the album with your sister was right and jubilee line hit on some dark and sad things that we can't really say are true or not but from what we know it's about Wilburs hatred to London, his loneliness, past love interest and his insecurities.
hi!! this is so lovely to see your reaction. He is my comfort :) he has said that alot of his lyrics in his songs are aromantic :) if you dont know what it is, look it up :) but he is so cool, like when does someone write a non romantic song? yeah its wonderful to have that.
While he disowned the your city gave me asthma album it is my absolute favorite of his music please listen and post the rest of the album. They are all great! My favorite song in it is since I saw Vienna
Again lovejoys new ep is coming out on may 12th. And I highly recommend listening to phoneboy. My favorite songs from them are moving out, hey kid, and Nevermind.
I dont know if anyone has said it yet but yes, jubilee line is about a train line where people would commit ss commonly. He noticed that when this happened and the train line was delayed people seemed more upset about the incovenianve to themselves than the other persons life. Quite a devastating realisation, and a very emotional beautiful song
ever since lovejoy started I've been waiting for this moment hahah where people hear lovejoy and then realize that wilbur has his own music and how funny he is and then how also a gamer haha
6:59 funny you should mention great editing.... this guy made a whole ARG back in like 2018 that still hasn't been solved, centered around him editing videos for a fellow called Jacksucksatlife here on youtube
OH AND!! WILBUR SOOTS MUSIC IS IN TRILOGIES!! I would recommend listening to im inlove with an egirl, and internet ruin me, he also is working on a new trilogy the softboy trilogy. AND THE YCGMA ALBUM IS TOP TIER CRYING TIME
My personal favorite is Soft boy probably cause its his most recent Also, in my opinion Your City Gave me Asthma, is literally all just emotional and serious songs
aa i'm glad you enjoyed both of lovejoy and his music!! i love how you looked up wilbur before the video. personally, my favorites are Jubilee Line, Saline Solution and Your Sister Was Right from his album YCGMA.
Maybe listen to Since I Saw Vienna or Losing Face. They’re also from YCGMA and they’re also depressing and acoustic. Other than Your Sister Was Right, they’re my favorite of the album. (They also made me cry a few times but we dont talk about that-)
13:35 He explains in a stream that this album was a breakup with a country, and that jubile line was written because he thought London did nothing to stop people from going on the rails in front of a train, and that people just thought of it as a inconvenience. I really liked this one.
“Who hurt Wilbur soot” He write about his ex who he loved leaving him and he put the emotion from that in his happy place, his music because he thought he would never got over her therefore the lyrics is jubilee line “there’s a reason they put barriers on the tube line”
I genuinely don't think there is any way to describe William Gold and what he does. Wilbur is incredible. The way he writes, not just songs but stories and scripts as well, is unprecedented. He made an ARG that still remains unsolved 5 years later, he wrote most of the original Dream SMP lore and that's what made the server huge, he wrote original stories based off of that lore as well and obviously his music but he manages to separate his music into three catagories as well. your new boyfriend, internet ruined me, i'm in love with an E-girl and Soft boy are the most popular songs that are his comedy songs they are called the 'E-girl Trilogy' (soft boy is the outsider it wasn't part of the trilogy but can be classed as it.) In these songs and others like Karen please come back, I'm really smart and the nice guy ballad Wilbur plays a character where he acts like a chronically online middle aged man who's constantly on the wrong side of reddit where the men class themselves as 'incels' and 'nice guys' when in reality they are misogynistic. it's meant to criticize those people through comedy and is one side of his writing. Another side is Lovejoy where he and the band write songs but i'm pretty sure Wilbur is the main writer, They focus their songs on toxic relationships and Englands government. Model Buses is a key example of this where the entire song is written about Boris Johnson and how he was a crappy prime minister, the lines 'he's got a bus, he's got a bike' relate to how he put in place public bikes and bettered the bus services all throughout London. The Fall is another song written from a perspective of a Tory MP where the line ' we're painting all the counties in blue' relates to the Conservative government's colour being blue. These songs are entirely separate and a different vibe from YCGMA and the comedy music they are serious without being ridiculously personal and it's these songs he plays live since he plays with his band and not by himself Now Your City Gave Me Asthma and Maybe I was Boring are the third side to his music. It's the exceedingly personal and deep side that we don't see anywhere else in his music. YCGMA was written during one of the worst times of his life where he was at his lowest one of the songs Losing Face was actually written while he was drunk (I Think the night his then girlfriend broke up with him but I am not sure at all about that) and there is a heartbreaking voice memo of his first time singing that song the night he was super drunk where you can tell he is clearly struggling. It talks about much much sadder topics like London's Tube suicides and the Governments reaction to them which was to put barriers that don't work in place and completely fuck the NHS over. The entire album begins with Wilbur saying he's leaving London and that he's glad to be gone because the city was suffocating but at the end he says a part of him will always be a part of the city and it is just so heartbreaking. Wilbur himself has actually abandoned the album, saying that it isn't something he likes anymore and that it's the peoples album now, that he doesn't want to profit off it anymore than streams and that we as his audience own it because of how hard a time he was having while he wrote it. I think a nice way to see the ycgma and the maybe I was boring era is the song It's all Futile! it's all Pointless! which originated as an acoustic song on Maybe I was boring (which on spotify is 4 songs under one track so it's a super long song with all of them on it), It describes depression taking over him while he was at university and how he wanted to feel less numb. It's such a sad song and it has some of his best written lyrics on it considering it was some of his earlier serious work. The song has been a fan favorite for ages and in the Lovejoy Pebblebrain EP it was entirely rewritten in Lovejoy's style with sick base, guitar, drums and a banging trumpet. It takes this slow acoustic song written at one of Wilbur's worst times in his life to an upbeat track that although has the same lyrics as that awful time, has been remade when he was and still is at his happiest and the music change almost symbolizes that progression in his life. The first iafiap resembles loosing hope and giving in to depression and although pebblebrain's iafiap has the same lyrics the music change makes the song sound like hope. It's like Wilbur was saying 'depression can happen to anyone but it gets better it gets easier to manage and you will regain hope' its a song I sob too but at the end I'll always find myself smiling like crazy at how far Wilbur has come. This comment feels like an essay so if you did read it this far this thank you and this is the conclusion. I would describe Wilbur as a genius but I don't even think that covers him. He is an inspiration to millions of people and continues to be one of the best content creators and musicians of this century and I just think he can seriously do anything. He is my biggest inspiration and I don't think I would be here without his work so please continue to check more of it out. he's also a part of an Improv channel called Sorry Boys where him and his fellow content creator friends do improv videos every 2 weeks if you want more comedy from him! as well as that one of his friends James Marriott also makes music and I'd love it if you could check him out if you haven't already I'd definitely recommend Car Lights by him it is such a cathartic experience hearing it for the first time and I'd love to see you react to it :)
I saw this video in my recommended since I am a huge fan of Wilbur Soot and his music/content. I was smiling throughout the whole entire video because of how much you liked his music! I love that you had the same reaction that I did when I first listened to his music! Your content is awesome and the way you commentate on the video seems like we are on FaceTime and you are like a great friend! I’m glad you are opening up to Wilbur and the Lovejoy band! In my opinion they are really a great band!
Your City Gave Me Asthma is a great sad album, my go to infact. Personal favourite of mine is Losing Face. There are also "demo" versions of some songs on yt somewhere that are even more raw and heartbreaking, full of emotion. Heres a link if you want: ruclips.net/video/H3WpBvqzRWk/видео.html
Your New Boyfriend is the last of a short series of songs Wilbur made to make fun of chronically online guys who feel creepily entitled to women's attention both online and offline. Also, Wilbur wrote Your Sister was right entirely wasted and actually cried while recording it. Jubilee Line is about society's general indifference to suicide.
There’s probably another comment explaining this but.. TW- unaliving/sad Jubilee line is about how when he lived in London and how when people are on they’re way to work and there is a delay in the train due to people unaliving themselves on the track, people would just sigh and be annoyed there is a delay and they’re gonna be late to work and not be phased by the fact someone was so unstable or alone that they would want to do that, and he couldn’t get over the fact people could care less about it. Later he moved and “I’m sorry borris” is about moving away and kind of breaking up with London and the UK in the fact he’s started allowing himself to want to move away and let himself not feel stuck in the UK if he wanted to move out, he moved a week or two after he wrote the song to somewhere else in Britain.
Noooo!, im so sad your gopro messed up i really wanted to see your reaction to the end of jubilee line, the twist at the end with the "they fail" is so dark yet so interesting!, anyways, love your content keep it up!
i know your a music reaction channel 😅 but i think you would really enjoy some of wilburs content especially a video by red herring called ‘wilbur soot arg explained’ the start of his arg was actually one of the first times i’d watched wilbur. it’s just creepy and weird and seems like something you’d enjoy! 🤣🤣 great reaction by the way ❤ edit: i forgot to mention that even to this day nobody knows the true meaning behind the arg and has actually figured the puzzle out as wilbur refuses to talk about it or give any clue. i think that’s what makes it even more interesting
If you like Lovejoy and Will, you should give Good Kid a listen. They just got back from touring with Lovejoy and just released an EP on Friday, and they're honestly tied for my favorite band with Lovejoy.
As someone who's been on the London trains quite a few times when I knew Jubilee Line it brings a whole new feel to those lines. They legit have barriers to prevent people from jumping down on the tracks. It's an incredibly dark part to put in a song... Really makes me feel sympathy for him even if he's gotten through it.
Oh yeah! Since you really liked Wilbur and the band he’s in, Lovejoy, then I recommend you check out Los Campesinos! Los Campesinos! inspires so much of Wilbur’s writing, in fact Lovejoy even did a cover of one of their songs Knee Deep at ATP And one of the lines that you heard in Your Sister Was Right, “Shout at the walls Cause the walls don’t f**** love you” is a line inspired by a Los Campesinos! song, Miserabilia “Shout at the world because the world doesn’t love you” Also Los Campesinos! is unlike any band you’ve probably ever heard let me say that, they have an insanely good female vocalists, insane genius music writing aspects and the vocals are probably the most unique thing along with the genius lyrics, please give them a listen it’s definitely a band that personally I think everyone should listen to at least once.
wilbur is a genius not only does he know how to make thw funniest content, he can also put serious issues in songs and make them funny but also put his own feeling into songs and make emotional ones your city gave me asthma is an album he wrote about his time in london which was very hard for him (you heard 2 of the songs from that album) and he didnt really like rhe album later anymore but we loved it so much that he performs some of it live then the egirl saga songs (your new boyfriend is the third one in the saga) explain how people on the internet can be parasocial or stalk people even when its clear they dont want anything to do with you packed into funny lyrics and them obviously the lovejoy songs are amazing as well (lovejoy redid one of the your city gave me asthma songs and i absolutely love both versions even tho they're so different, the title is: its all futile its all pointless)
wilbur also has an ep called maybe i was boring with 4 songs on it that were all scrapped from ycgma! he also has another song called screensaver which is really good and pretty similar to ycgma since you loved lovejoy i recommend listening to james marriott! his music is pretty similar to theirs and hes also good friends with lovejoy! fun fact: james was originally supposed to be a member of lovejoy! lovejoy have also invited james on stage a few times to play his favorite song of theirs called model buses along with them!
I’m sure you’ve already gotten alot of comments kind of explaining this. Jubilee line is about people killing themselves on the train tracks in/around London (which is sadly a damn lot) and people mostly just getting annoyed that their train is late rather than feeling for the people that just lost their life. the backround noise like the louder one that you reacted a bit “shocked” is I think to resemble sounds you here on the tube stations. Like the one I mentioned a train driving by and the beginning the classic train female speaker voice ykyk. I find the song and the meaning behind it very beautiful.
I believe Wilbur has 2 eps (your city gave me asthma and maybe I was boring) and then 4 singles on his main channel (I’m in love with an e-girl, the internet ruined me, your new boyfriend, and soft boy). He also has a few (like 2 or 3) more singles that are older and not on his main channel, like Karen come back, I miss the kids, as well as some covers. One of his songs from maybe I was boring, it’s all futile it’s all pointless, was redone as a Lovejoy song on their second ep. I recommend listen to im I love with an e girl and the internet ruined because the are apart of a story, along with your new boyfriend. I also recommend listening to the rest of your city gave me asthma (i personally recommend saline solution and losing face). Enjoy!
I know you react to music, but I'd love to see your reaction to some of his content. Especially on the dream smp, which is a minecraft server where he wrote a lot of the lore. It is based a lot on Hamilton I'm pretty sure and the lore is really good and sometimes really weird. I am a BIG Wilbur fan so yeah-
you should watch a video when wilbur explains "your new boyfriend" bc some things that you think are jokes have happened- he kicked mickey mouse. when he sang "I hate to say it, but your sister was right." he was actually crying. :') if you like his music you should watch his videos/streams, or watch the channel "sorry boy's", it has the same humour and wilbur gives it his usual dark manipulative twist to it.
This is honestly some of the best reaction stuff I've seen in ages, it's really great to see that the genre can be done in a super fun and interesting way :)
You should definitely react to his Maybe I was Boring EP! It is scrapped songs from Your City Gave Me Asthma (I particularly love the girl vocals in Your City Gave Me Asthma and Maybe I Was Boring all of the female vocalists compliment Wilbur’s voice very well)
"Your City Gave Me Asthma" is definitely my favorite album ever, and my personal favorites are "Losing Face" and "Your Sister Was Right." I would definitely recommend listening to the "CMYB" or demo version of "Losing Face" though, because that version is significantly different from the official/YCGMA version. The demo version is a lot more raw and emotional, which I personally love. And I think there's many people in the comments recommending "Maybe I Was Boring" which has songs that were removed from the initial album of "YCGMA", along with that these songs are definitely more upbeat, but still induce a lot of emotions. "YCGMA" is 100% my go to mental breakdown album or just to listen to whenever I'm in an off mood. In my opinion, Wilbur is a songwriting genius with the way he has parody songs as well as songs that focus on more serious topics, like in "Jubilee Line". Plus his lyricism is absolutely amazing paired with his instrumentals.
I really like the vibe of your videos, so glad I discovered your channel:) If you ever do a part 2 to this (which I'd really love) I can give out some recommendations! For more of his comedy songs I think you'd enjoy Internet Ruined Me, Soft Boy and Karen Please Come Back I Miss The Kids (Soft Boy being his newest single) If you want to hear more of the depressing kind of music from his album my personal favourites are Since I Saw Vienna, Saline Solution and La Jolla! Regarding Lovejoy, if you do another video about them then i really recommend (besides of course the new ep thats coming out soon) The Fall, You'll Understand When You're Older and It's All Futile It's All Pointless, which is one of Wilbur's original songs that the band decided to remake

I do love it when people enjoy Your New Boyfriend the way it's meant to be (a comedic/not serious song), because I've seen too many reactors take it too serious even though the lyrics are overly self-aware.
WILBUR SOOT MY BELOVED
Always
WILBUR SOOT OUR BELOVED
our beloved*
YEAH!
YES
Wilbur has disowned the album Your City Gave Me Asthma, with the exception of perhaps Saline Solution and La Jolla. Back in January of 2021, he officially stated that the album belongs to the fans of his work.
Do we know WHY it was besides SS and La Jolla?
@@wiltedblade La Jolla is the only song from the album that he still really likes while Saline Solution is about his hypochondria. Despite this, he still has stated that the entire album belongs to the fans.
@@mistressofuniverses That is fair enough. thank you!
what?
why does he not like it
Personal favourite will always be Since I Saw Vienna for me. The whole album holds a special place in my heart tho. It’s half the reason I can play guitar despite having dysgraphia, and guitar is a huge part of my self-care now.
I genuinely believe Wilbur is one of the geniuses of our era, I can’t express enough what this man has done for every community he’s touched; not just with music, pretty much everything he puts out is a masterpiece. He’s broken the internet several times over, sometimes from behind the scenes. I’ve studied creative writing for over 6 years, and when he wrote his first story I was sitting there taking notes. (Obviously there were pitfalls to it that you can only navigate through experience but the fact that it’s as phenomenal as it is almost feels unfair lmao)
He really has had a huge impact. His group channel Soothouse both pioneered and was the peak of the Reddit reading/reaction genre of RUclips
As well as the dsmp, that was also a massive minecraft role play project and it brought a lot of people together and let streamers grow, while he didn't create the dsmp he was a massive part of it
He started the Minecraft but concept,also soothouse introduced the coloured subtitles with different colours for different people
said exactly what I wanted to!! since I saw vienna has been my favorite since I first heard it and it got me into guitar playing and now I can play pretty much every song from ycgma except for your sister was right n saline solution lol
My personal favorite is losing face :D it just seems really catchy to me
!! Just for some information: Your New Boyfriend is actually the third part of a trilogy of satirical songs called "The E-Girl Trilogy" (I'm in Love With An E-Girl, Internet Ruined Me, and Your New Boyfriend). The other two songs you reacted to are from his serious solo album Your City Gave Me Asthma (which I personally am a huge fan of and would love to see your reaction to the rest of the songs. "Who hurt the boy" is definitely a great description of the whole album lmao). He has said that he's doing much better since writing the album and even went as far as to "disown" the album, saying that it actually belongs to the listeners it has helped get through tough times and not him, which is really sweet :)
Thank you so much for reacting to Wilbur and Lovejoy, your reactions are super genuine and your positive energy is contagious! I'm really happy to see such a wonderful person experience one of my favourite creators for the first time!!
saline solution, since i saw vienna and internet ruined me are definitely his best solo songs imo, been crazy obsessed with his music since i heard it for the first time
Fr tho
the contrast between him fully wheezing with laughter at your new boyfriend to actually getting teary-eyed in jubilee line dude-
"Your City Gave Me Asthma" is more serious EP but it's really good. The "Maybe I Was Boring" (MIWB)EP is happier. I recommend listening to everyone of these. "Maybe I Was Boring" was one of the first Wilbur's production. It's good though. Also you have "I'm in love with an E-girl" It has more funny things. In Maybe I Was Boring there is a song named "It's all futile It's all pointless" it's first version of Lovejoy song of the same song. Wilbur has a lot of things that are very interesting but I can't name all of them.
i wouldn't exactly describe maybe i was boring as happier
@@celestialkitten instrumental is happier. every wilbur's text is sad
@@Voltar162 fair enough
from what I've heard Your City Gave Me Asthma ( album where Jubilee Line and Your Sister Was Right is from ) is a vent album. basically songs he did out of his feelings, which by the sound of the songs from the album, are pretty sad ones
Jubilee line is such a good song it has such a grip on my brain and probably my organs too because it's been one of my favourite songs for three years
If you like Wilbur and Lovejoy, I'd definitely recommend James Marriot. He's also a twitch streamer turned musician, and just recently started a tour. His music goes hard
YES OMG BIG VOUCH !!!
VOUCH i saw jimbo live and everytime i think about it it still gives me goosebumps
YES
THIS!!!
You NEED to hear “internet ruined me” by Wilbur. It’s got the funny dark humour that lovejoy uses and beautiful guitar
It’s so cool to see people enjoying his music just as much as i do :’))) especially bc you haven’t even heard of him before!!
So glad you liked Lovejoy´s music and Wilbur´s as well! I really liked both of your reactions, it´s really nice you took the time to look up Wilbur before this video.
I think these three songs are a very good representation of Wilbur´s music overall. He has some comedy songs, and then there´s the EP "Your City Gave me Asmtha" (There are also four more songs from another one called "Maybe I Was Boring").
Jubilee Line! It was one of my favorite songs ever for at least half a year. I still love it, but LVJY is just another level of amazing.
the juxtaposition of "Your new boyfriend " to "Your sister was right" was really crazy. I knew all of his released music(Lovejoy, YCGMA, maybe i was boring, His egirl tirilogy & joke somgs like "i'm smart") but its still a hard 180 and a gut punch.
Also, i dont know how much you know already from the comments but Jubilee line is about a train station in london, and its about how people comitt on the underground by jumping infront of the trains and the government simply put barriers to prevent the jumpers instead of helping those people. To me it hits home.
!cw- mentions of suicide! at the lyrics "there's a reason london puts barriers on the tube line" and you said "i think that got dark" wilbur was referring to the stations that have screen doors. they were put in place in the early 2000s to prevent people from jumping onto the tracks of an oncoming train. it's not very fun to think about but unfortunately it got a time they had to put the barriers up :( (the new elizabeth line has them too) love your videos!
The album “Your City gave me Asthma” Wilbur wrote when he was going through a very dark time for him during the pandemic. That’s what I heard at least. 👍🏻
it was mostly unrelated to the pandemic actually, as a lot of it was about a girlfriend he had for 2 years when he was 17
Omg, Jubilee Line is by far my favorite of Wilber's songs!! Has such a melancholy but peaceful sound to it 😌
I love seeing people react to Jubilee line because when the ending starts it's like "oh yo this goes hard" then you hear the lyrics and it's like "wh- UH-."
I really recommend the fall, perfume, and sex sells by lovejoy!! Theyre really good as well!! Also, “hes in your bed and im in your twitch chat” will always be iconic.
as a major wilbur soot fan and brit here is some facts;
your new boyfriend is the end of a comedy trilogy (called the egirl trilogy ) he wrote making fun of people (specifically men) who treat women on the internet badly and simps. The character - fandom dubbed as simpbur (wilbur + simp) - has been chasing this egirl who he follows on twitch, thinking he should be her boyfriend (which you'll probably discover from listening the rest of the egirl trilogy). This songs chorus wasn't made by him but was made by his close friend and fellow streamer TommyInnit (who he constantly says is his brother), he also got lovejoy's song concrete on the playlist (because they where going to remove it from pebble brain).
your sister was right is a song will doesn't talk about much and i don't know a lot about it, but it's mainly about wilbur and his ex-girlfriend. he has stated that this track is mainly for the fandom to put a meaning behind.
the jubilee line is a tube (subway) route in london which is known for having a high amount of suicide rates and the rail workers and people who wait for the train don't care and put up the barriers to prevent it ('there is a reason that london puts barriers on the tube lines') and if they do commit, they end up upset that they can't get to their destinations . Will didn't like this and wrote this song based on his experiences in living in london and felt it was wrong the victims where being dehumanised. He also ended up getting asthma from the city and as a 'hypochondriac' he added more onto it through the song 'saline solution'
if you want more songs like jubilee line and your sister was right - i recommend checking out since i saw vienna and saline solution
if you like your new boyfriend - check out the rest of the egirl trilogy (in order it's; i'm in love with an egirl, internet has ruined me and then your new boyfriend) and soft boy
if you want more lovejoy - i really recommend the fall and either they're cover of los campesino's song knee deep at APT or oh yeah, you gonna cry (my personal favourite)
and if you like lovejoy, they take huge inspo from the band los campesinos and arctic monkeys
loving the reactions mate can't wait to see more
I'm pretty sure it was perfume that was "saved" by Tommy
@@willz_the_king yup :)
I still remember the lyrics after leaving the dsmp for a year... crazy
*For anyone curious and wanting to check Wilbur and LoveJoy out;*
Start with the "Are you Alright?" EP ( its just 4 songs) and then the Peeble Brain Ep (as much as i love the AYA? EP, I think they really hit a stride with Peeble Brain, specially when you hit The Fall), then LJ's solo songs, Knee deep cover and THEN Call me What you like
Then maybe go onto Wilbur's solo stuff if you want a treat (Your City Gave Me Asthma Album, its arguably his best solo album, then Maybe I was boring EP, tho im not as big fan as it but its still not bad)
Also Wilbur has a solo parody music series the "E-Girl" Trilogy. Its more memey with him portraying a "Nice Guy" during the songs but that doesn't mean they arnt amazingly made, Your New Boyfriend is a bop!
Also Sonce I saw Vienna from the Your City Give Me Asthma album is hands down my fave ever. Love me a sad song and was one of the first I ever heard from him long before LoveJoy was a thing
WILBUR MY BELOVED!!!! :]
if you’re interested, the majority of the YCGMA album is pretty easy to figure out on guitar as long as you’ve got it in the right tuning.
Jubilee Line, La Jolla and Saline Solution is on CGDGBE. Since I Saw Vienna and Losing Face is on regular tuning. I’ve forgotten what Your Sister Was Right and I’m Sorry Boris uses but it deviates slightly off CGDBE iirc.
as we’ve said for years, wilbur is lucky he’s charming 🤣 our psychopath
wait till he finds out that Wilbur blew up a nation
He was in a much darker place during the your city gave me asthma album hence why it has a much sadder theme
I have been listening to juilibe line for years but only now realized what the last part meant
yeah it’s super sad
@@xxkissingrazorsikr
my favorite by far will always be since I saw Vienna. it's literal poetry, maybe the best song I've ever heard
Hello hello! I made another video where I listen to Saline Solution and Since I Saw Vienna: ruclips.net/video/cf4G2jNAWk8/видео.html
If you missed my Lovejoy Reaction Video, it's here: ruclips.net/video/LVQo2iP9BWg/видео.html
And I will be doing a listen through of there new EP Next Month on the channel!
“my city gave me asthma” album is about his breakup he had when he was in his early 20’s (Just some extra info)
Edit: the last part of jubilee line was about something Wilbur witnessed on the London tube where someone took their life. As he said and i quote “yeah, this is londons fault” and that’s how it was added in. Love Wilbur
I’m pretty sure Jubilee line is about how they put fences on railroad tracks to stop people from jumping into them and you should really listen to losing face by Wilbur it’s really good it’s one of my favorite songs from this album
Damn dude I love the vibes of your videos, it’s like showing your friend a song you like and they enjoy it and you’re like HELL YEAH I KNEW YOU WOULD LIKE IT
TW-Mention of Suicide
Jubilee line is about how it annoyed Wilbur that all the council was doing to prevent people committing suicide is putting barriers on the jubilee line since its a really fast train
Wilbur’s great
The Your City Gave Me Asthma album which is the album with your sister was right and jubilee line hit on some dark and sad things that we can't really say are true or not but from what we know it's about Wilburs hatred to London, his loneliness, past love interest and his insecurities.
hi!! this is so lovely to see your reaction. He is my comfort :)
he has said that alot of his lyrics in his songs are aromantic :) if you dont know what it is, look it up :) but he is so cool, like when does someone write a non romantic song? yeah its wonderful to have that.
While he disowned the your city gave me asthma album it is my absolute favorite of his music please listen and post the rest of the album. They are all great! My favorite song in it is since I saw Vienna
Again lovejoys new ep is coming out on may 12th. And I highly recommend listening to phoneboy. My favorite songs from them are moving out, hey kid, and Nevermind.
I dont know if anyone has said it yet but yes, jubilee line is about a train line where people would commit ss commonly. He noticed that when this happened and the train line was delayed people seemed more upset about the incovenianve to themselves than the other persons life. Quite a devastating realisation, and a very emotional beautiful song
ever since lovejoy started I've been waiting for this moment hahah
where people hear lovejoy and then realize that wilbur has his own music and how funny he is and then how also a gamer haha
WILBUR SOOT 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
11:02 dude I have this drawn on a pare of shoes also I recommend listening to tongues and teeth by the crane wives
also watch some of his streams and stuff he’s a funny guy and a grate dude
6:59 funny you should mention great editing.... this guy made a whole ARG back in like 2018 that still hasn't been solved, centered around him editing videos for a fellow called Jacksucksatlife here on youtube
OH AND!! WILBUR SOOTS MUSIC IS IN TRILOGIES!! I would recommend listening to im inlove with an egirl, and internet ruin me, he also is working on a new trilogy the softboy trilogy. AND THE YCGMA ALBUM IS TOP TIER CRYING TIME
watched your lovejoy video yesterday, saw the wilbur soot one was coming today, immediately got excited
OH GOD, YOUVE GOT ONE OF HIS COMEDY SONGS WITH HIS EXTREMELY SAD ALBUM, THIS IS SO FUNNY
I don’t know if it’s just me, but this guy’s laughter is absolutely contagious and I love it 😂
My personal favorite is Soft boy probably cause its his most recent
Also, in my opinion Your City Gave me Asthma, is literally all just emotional and serious songs
aa i'm glad you enjoyed both of lovejoy and his music!! i love how you looked up wilbur before the video. personally, my favorites are Jubilee Line, Saline Solution and Your Sister Was Right from his album YCGMA.
"We went to the funny to the emotional like AAAAAh dude"
Maybe listen to Since I Saw Vienna or Losing Face. They’re also from YCGMA and they’re also depressing and acoustic. Other than Your Sister Was Right, they’re my favorite of the album. (They also made me cry a few times but we dont talk about that-)
13:35
He explains in a stream that this album was a breakup with a country, and that jubile line was written because he thought London did nothing to stop people from going on the rails in front of a train, and that people just thought of it as a inconvenience. I really liked this one.
“Who hurt Wilbur soot”
He write about his ex who he loved leaving him and he put the emotion from that in his happy place,
his music because he thought he would never got over her therefore the lyrics is jubilee line “there’s a reason they put barriers on the tube line”
Watching you have a great time knowing what’s coming next😭
I genuinely don't think there is any way to describe William Gold and what he does. Wilbur is incredible. The way he writes, not just songs but stories and scripts as well, is unprecedented. He made an ARG that still remains unsolved 5 years later, he wrote most of the original Dream SMP lore and that's what made the server huge, he wrote original stories based off of that lore as well and obviously his music but he manages to separate his music into three catagories as well.
your new boyfriend, internet ruined me, i'm in love with an E-girl and Soft boy are the most popular songs that are his comedy songs they are called the 'E-girl Trilogy' (soft boy is the outsider it wasn't part of the trilogy but can be classed as it.) In these songs and others like Karen please come back, I'm really smart and the nice guy ballad Wilbur plays a character where he acts like a chronically online middle aged man who's constantly on the wrong side of reddit where the men class themselves as 'incels' and 'nice guys' when in reality they are misogynistic. it's meant to criticize those people through comedy and is one side of his writing.
Another side is Lovejoy where he and the band write songs but i'm pretty sure Wilbur is the main writer, They focus their songs on toxic relationships and Englands government. Model Buses is a key example of this where the entire song is written about Boris Johnson and how he was a crappy prime minister, the lines 'he's got a bus, he's got a bike' relate to how he put in place public bikes and bettered the bus services all throughout London. The Fall is another song written from a perspective of a Tory MP where the line ' we're painting all the counties in blue' relates to the Conservative government's colour being blue. These songs are entirely separate and a different vibe from YCGMA and the comedy music they are serious without being ridiculously personal and it's these songs he plays live since he plays with his band and not by himself
Now Your City Gave Me Asthma and Maybe I was Boring are the third side to his music. It's the exceedingly personal and deep side that we don't see anywhere else in his music. YCGMA was written during one of the worst times of his life where he was at his lowest one of the songs Losing Face was actually written while he was drunk (I Think the night his then girlfriend broke up with him but I am not sure at all about that) and there is a heartbreaking voice memo of his first time singing that song the night he was super drunk where you can tell he is clearly struggling. It talks about much much sadder topics like London's Tube suicides and the Governments reaction to them which was to put barriers that don't work in place and completely fuck the NHS over. The entire album begins with Wilbur saying he's leaving London and that he's glad to be gone because the city was suffocating but at the end he says a part of him will always be a part of the city and it is just so heartbreaking. Wilbur himself has actually abandoned the album, saying that it isn't something he likes anymore and that it's the peoples album now, that he doesn't want to profit off it anymore than streams and that we as his audience own it because of how hard a time he was having while he wrote it.
I think a nice way to see the ycgma and the maybe I was boring era is the song It's all Futile! it's all Pointless! which originated as an acoustic song on Maybe I was boring (which on spotify is 4 songs under one track so it's a super long song with all of them on it), It describes depression taking over him while he was at university and how he wanted to feel less numb. It's such a sad song and it has some of his best written lyrics on it considering it was some of his earlier serious work. The song has been a fan favorite for ages and in the Lovejoy Pebblebrain EP it was entirely rewritten in Lovejoy's style with sick base, guitar, drums and a banging trumpet. It takes this slow acoustic song written at one of Wilbur's worst times in his life to an upbeat track that although has the same lyrics as that awful time, has been remade when he was and still is at his happiest and the music change almost symbolizes that progression in his life. The first iafiap resembles loosing hope and giving in to depression and although pebblebrain's iafiap has the same lyrics the music change makes the song sound like hope. It's like Wilbur was saying 'depression can happen to anyone but it gets better it gets easier to manage and you will regain hope' its a song I sob too but at the end I'll always find myself smiling like crazy at how far Wilbur has come.
This comment feels like an essay so if you did read it this far this thank you and this is the conclusion. I would describe Wilbur as a genius but I don't even think that covers him. He is an inspiration to millions of people and continues to be one of the best content creators and musicians of this century and I just think he can seriously do anything. He is my biggest inspiration and I don't think I would be here without his work so please continue to check more of it out. he's also a part of an Improv channel called Sorry Boys where him and his fellow content creator friends do improv videos every 2 weeks if you want more comedy from him! as well as that one of his friends James Marriott also makes music and I'd love it if you could check him out if you haven't already I'd definitely recommend Car Lights by him it is such a cathartic experience hearing it for the first time and I'd love to see you react to it :)
I saw this video in my recommended since I am a huge fan of Wilbur Soot and his music/content. I was smiling throughout the whole entire video because of how much you liked his music! I love that you had the same reaction that I did when I first listened to his music! Your content is awesome and the way you commentate on the video seems like we are on FaceTime and you are like a great friend! I’m glad you are opening up to Wilbur and the Lovejoy band! In my opinion they are really a great band!
Your City Gave Me Asthma is a great sad album, my go to infact. Personal favourite of mine is Losing Face. There are also "demo" versions of some songs on yt somewhere that are even more raw and heartbreaking, full of emotion. Heres a link if you want: ruclips.net/video/H3WpBvqzRWk/видео.html
Your New Boyfriend is the last of a short series of songs Wilbur made to make fun of chronically online guys who feel creepily entitled to women's attention both online and offline. Also, Wilbur wrote Your Sister was right entirely wasted and actually cried while recording it. Jubilee Line is about society's general indifference to suicide.
The Album Your City Gave Me Asthma is one of my favs of all time
There’s probably another comment explaining this but..
TW- unaliving/sad
Jubilee line is about how when he lived in London and how when people are on they’re way to work and there is a delay in the train due to people unaliving themselves on the track, people would just sigh and be annoyed there is a delay and they’re gonna be late to work and not be phased by the fact someone was so unstable or alone that they would want to do that, and he couldn’t get over the fact people could care less about it. Later he moved and “I’m sorry borris” is about moving away and kind of breaking up with London and the UK in the fact he’s started allowing himself to want to move away and let himself not feel stuck in the UK if he wanted to move out, he moved a week or two after he wrote the song to somewhere else in Britain.
LMAO NOT THE 3 IN 1 MEME
You should listen to James Marriott next!!!
Noooo!, im so sad your gopro messed up i really wanted to see your reaction to the end of jubilee line, the twist at the end with the "they fail" is so dark yet so interesting!, anyways, love your content keep it up!
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS!!! 🎉
i know your a music reaction channel 😅 but i think you would really enjoy some of wilburs content especially a video by red herring called ‘wilbur soot arg explained’ the start of his arg was actually one of the first times i’d watched wilbur. it’s just creepy and weird and seems like something you’d enjoy! 🤣🤣 great reaction by the way ❤ edit: i forgot to mention that even to this day nobody knows the true meaning behind the arg and has actually figured the puzzle out as wilbur refuses to talk about it or give any clue. i think that’s what makes it even more interesting
If you want more comedic songs Wilburhad also made internet ruined me and I’m in love with a egirl they are really good :)
Yeah there’s a big divide between his comedy and serious songs 😆
the 3 in 1 shampoo mention 😭
If you like Lovejoy and Will, you should give Good Kid a listen. They just got back from touring with Lovejoy and just released an EP on Friday, and they're honestly tied for my favorite band with Lovejoy.
As someone who's been on the London trains quite a few times when I knew Jubilee Line it brings a whole new feel to those lines. They legit have barriers to prevent people from jumping down on the tracks. It's an incredibly dark part to put in a song... Really makes me feel sympathy for him even if he's gotten through it.
the last one (jubilee lines) is abut how people off themselvs in the yk, and how london deals with it
youre such a sweet person only good warm vibes from you
Oh yeah! Since you really liked Wilbur and the band he’s in, Lovejoy, then I recommend you check out Los Campesinos! Los Campesinos! inspires so much of Wilbur’s writing, in fact Lovejoy even did a cover of one of their songs Knee Deep at ATP
And one of the lines that you heard in Your Sister Was Right,
“Shout at the walls
Cause the walls don’t f**** love you”
is a line inspired by a Los Campesinos! song, Miserabilia
“Shout at the world because the world doesn’t love you”
Also Los Campesinos! is unlike any band you’ve probably ever heard let me say that, they have an insanely good female vocalists, insane genius music writing aspects and the vocals are probably the most unique thing along with the genius lyrics, please give them a listen it’s definitely a band that personally I think everyone should listen to at least once.
So im not the only one that heard Jason Derullo,?!
my personal favourite is Your Sister Was Right shortly followed by The Internet Has Ruined Me
if you like wilbur and lovejoy, i highly recommend James Marriott! he’s great friends with wilbur and the band and his music is fantastic!
wilbur is a genius
not only does he know how to make thw funniest content, he can also put serious issues in songs and make them funny but also put his own feeling into songs and make emotional ones
your city gave me asthma is an album he wrote about his time in london which was very hard for him (you heard 2 of the songs from that album) and he didnt really like rhe album later anymore but we loved it so much that he performs some of it live
then the egirl saga songs (your new boyfriend is the third one in the saga) explain how people on the internet can be parasocial or stalk people even when its clear they dont want anything to do with you packed into funny lyrics
and them obviously the lovejoy songs are amazing as well (lovejoy redid one of the your city gave me asthma songs and i absolutely love both versions even tho they're so different, the title is: its all futile its all pointless)
You should listen to 'The Nice Guy Ballad' and 'Karen, Please Come Back I Miss The Kids' by Wilbur soot
AVID USER OF 3 IN 1 IM CRYING man got the lore 😭😭😭
Finally! Yes I love this
If you liked this you should listen to The Royston Club, another indie rock band with some great tunes!
wilbur also has an ep called maybe i was boring with 4 songs on it that were all scrapped from ycgma! he also has another song called screensaver which is really good and pretty similar to ycgma
since you loved lovejoy i recommend listening to james marriott! his music is pretty similar to theirs and hes also good friends with lovejoy!
fun fact: james was originally supposed to be a member of lovejoy! lovejoy have also invited james on stage a few times to play his favorite song of theirs called model buses along with them!
you should listen to since I saw vienna
Excluding the very sad songs (which hit hard) all his music is just super fun
talking like a wilbur stan already with that "who hurt wilbur soot. who hurt the boy"
as someone who’s listened to wilbur since 2020 i still have the same reactions you did 😭
anyways stream your sister was right
14:00 lol the realization😂
You city gave me asthma is my depression playlist I love it its great
I’m sure you’ve already gotten alot of comments kind of explaining this.
Jubilee line is about people killing themselves on the train tracks in/around London (which is sadly a damn lot)
and people mostly just getting annoyed that their train is late rather than feeling for the people that just lost their life.
the backround noise like the louder one that you reacted a bit “shocked” is I think to resemble sounds you here on the tube stations.
Like the one I mentioned a train driving by and the beginning the classic train female speaker voice ykyk.
I find the song and the meaning behind it very beautiful.
I believe Wilbur has 2 eps (your city gave me asthma and maybe I was boring) and then 4 singles on his main channel (I’m in love with an e-girl, the internet ruined me, your new boyfriend, and soft boy). He also has a few (like 2 or 3) more singles that are older and not on his main channel, like Karen come back, I miss the kids, as well as some covers. One of his songs from maybe I was boring, it’s all futile it’s all pointless, was redone as a Lovejoy song on their second ep. I recommend listen to im I love with an e girl and the internet ruined because the are apart of a story, along with your new boyfriend. I also recommend listening to the rest of your city gave me asthma (i personally recommend saline solution and losing face). Enjoy!
Fun fact: Wilbur wrote Jubilee Line after he witnessed a man throw himself in front of a train
The reaction when the “barriers on the tube line” lyrics comes up lmao
I know you react to music, but I'd love to see your reaction to some of his content. Especially on the dream smp, which is a minecraft server where he wrote a lot of the lore. It is based a lot on Hamilton I'm pretty sure and the lore is really good and sometimes really weird. I am a BIG Wilbur fan so yeah-
you should watch a video when wilbur explains "your new boyfriend" bc some things that you think are jokes have happened- he kicked mickey mouse.
when he sang "I hate to say it, but your sister was right." he was actually crying. :')
if you like his music you should watch his videos/streams, or watch the channel "sorry boy's", it has the same humour and wilbur gives it his usual dark manipulative twist to it.
This is honestly some of the best reaction stuff I've seen in ages, it's really great to see that the genre can be done in a super fun and interesting way :)
You should definitely react to his Maybe I was Boring EP! It is scrapped songs from Your City Gave Me Asthma (I particularly love the girl vocals in Your City Gave Me Asthma and Maybe I Was Boring all of the female vocalists compliment Wilbur’s voice very well)
"Your City Gave Me Asthma" is definitely my favorite album ever, and my personal favorites are "Losing Face" and "Your Sister Was Right." I would definitely recommend listening to the "CMYB" or demo version of "Losing Face" though, because that version is significantly different from the official/YCGMA version. The demo version is a lot more raw and emotional, which I personally love. And I think there's many people in the comments recommending "Maybe I Was Boring" which has songs that were removed from the initial album of "YCGMA", along with that these songs are definitely more upbeat, but still induce a lot of emotions. "YCGMA" is 100% my go to mental breakdown album or just to listen to whenever I'm in an off mood. In my opinion, Wilbur is a songwriting genius with the way he has parody songs as well as songs that focus on more serious topics, like in "Jubilee Line". Plus his lyricism is absolutely amazing paired with his instrumentals.
Love this, you're reactions are very genuine! highly recommend Noah Finnce, he's my favourite artist atm, he does kinda rock stuff with great lyrics
I really like the vibe of your videos, so glad I discovered your channel:)
If you ever do a part 2 to this (which I'd really love) I can give out some recommendations!
For more of his comedy songs I think you'd enjoy Internet Ruined Me, Soft Boy and Karen Please Come Back I Miss The Kids (Soft Boy being his newest single)
If you want to hear more of the depressing kind of music from his album my personal favourites are Since I Saw Vienna, Saline Solution and La Jolla!
Regarding Lovejoy, if you do another video about them then i really recommend (besides of course the new ep thats coming out soon) The Fall, You'll Understand When You're Older and It's All Futile It's All Pointless, which is one of Wilbur's original songs that the band decided to remake
