The experience, perception, and state of mind during childhood is indescribable. Just imagine trying to explain it to someone that was never a kid. Absolute fever dream.
It's known that he records these on actual vhs tapes, but he does also overwrite the vhs tapes often with newer videos. Maybe he reclaims the clay and stuff for other models?
My theory is that this is about childhood trauma and repressed memories. I think the pat on the back making an indent symbolizes the impact an abuser had on him at an early age. On top of that, he says “I used to know the locals and the lay of the land.” I think it’s a little unusual that he says “used to” here because I feel like most people still remember their hometown and neighbors when they go back to visit. This might be because the trauma he went through there has caused his brain to repress the memories, and the whole video is him trying to recount what happened so he can confront the issue. As someone who went through a lot of abuse as a kid, the whole vibe of the video and the song just feel like a perfect description of that trauma.

i could just sit there and listen to this for days, it just gives me a feeling of nostalgia and makes me tear up everytime i listen to it in the evening. It makes you remember the good days back then, when everything was just fun and you couldn't care less about some dumb problems. I just love everything jack does and i wish that someday i can just be a little bit like him.
Is nobody else gonna talk about when the lil boy got slapped on the back. The actual result will be much different than just a yellow food coloring to Marshmellows to a person's back like damn, that back *T H I C C*
The pat on the back is actually a really smart visual. "Nothing better than a pat on the back" with like, adult approval, but the hand going into the back stretches out uncomfortably... painfully? Not to mention the forest of legs, like losing your parents in a crowd... amazing.
Its also like how when lost kids look for their parents by staring at their backsides, and what clothes they were wearing, and then losing them, then the turning round bit at the end is like when you think its your parent but its actually just someone else wearing similar clothings
Bro, Honestly i do think it is weird and creepy in a way but so artistic and nostalgic at the same time. But his music and work isnt always creepy, sometimes its just either deep or funny. He has videos like trent the baby that are amusing. Ive never seen an artist like jack stauber to have the guts to make this amazing artistic work. He probably spent hours making this one video and i appreciate his efforts. And as a fan, i dont find this too creepy or weird at all. I stan for jack stauber.
I love the mood this animation conveys. It captures those memories you have from childhood, where you had experiences but you dont have the words yet to describe them properly. The adults who are all just legs, i remember how often i would just stare at my dads knees as a toddler instead of his face. Or the "pat on the back" when an adult gives you a sign of affection that you aren't used to. Like if you parents usually hugged you, but your aunt suddenly ruffles your hair without warning. Its clearly out of affection, but you are too little to understand the change in sensation. Or even the "locals" who have specific features but they still kinda blur in your memory as you grow older.
Bãçk BÆĆk BÅCK Back. When I was just a boy (HAHAHAHAH) back BACK! when I was just a boy. Nothing was better than a pat on the back! Used to stay up till 5:00 in the morning .They used to call me jack. But that was all-back when I was just a boy. Back when I was just a boy. There was nothing better than a little birdie in my hand. I used to know the locals of the lake of the land.
After this video, i agree that Jack lived in a very cool village, with a great family, Lots of friends, and nice neighbours. I had nothing of this in my childhood.
I think I finally understand what happened to Jack. in the 3 videos that came after COVID, you can see Jack’s struggles. In the first video, New Normal, it outright says what it’s about, how hard things have now become, and how things won’t go back to normal for a long time so this is the new normal. Depression and death have also been huge themes in his account, for example, Dinner Is Not Over, so this is most likely Jack’s mental state rapidly plummeting. In the next one, Back, it’s very autobiographical, about Jack Stauber as a child. What I see in it is Jack reminiscing about how his life was before the virus. In the final one before the hiatus, it’s the one that hits the hardest. Someone Jack knew, or someone a friend of Jack’s knew, died, most likely from COVID. I feel like this is where Jack’s mental health reached an all time low, and where the hiatus started. I don’t want anyone to take this as fact, as it is very likely that it isn’t. But if it is the case, I just want to say, I hope you’re well, Jack.
I can't stop rewatching this, I don't know if it's because i can't comprehend that Jack is back, or if it's just really good. Probably a mix of the two.
this hit hard coming from a person whos had many family members with brain issues in old age. really makes you wonder how much you should hold on to your memories before it all slips away.
My theory: The video is about how during our childhood we were content with things that we would now see as insignificant, such as being slapped on the back, staying up late, touching a bird, or talking to others. That's why Jack says at one point "but that was all", as if it really wasn't a big deal.
I have a theory where this is a story of neglect where the kid was neglected and the best thing in life was a pat on the back which means that maybe his parents noticed he was there and gave him a slap on the back but to the boy it was just being noticed was the best thing about it. But soon he started to get out a bit more and started to lighten up a bit experiencing a bird land on his hand and saying hello to the neighbours and started to warm up to the town he lived in and soon started to have a life of his own and this song is him telling the story of his child hood.
Lyrics (at least what I heard): Back when I was just a boy Back when I was just a boy Nothing was better Than a pat on the back Used to stay up until 5 in the morning They used to call me Jack But that was all back When I was just a boy Back when I was just a boy Nothing was better Than a bird in your hand I used to know the locals And the lay of the land
i think it tells the story of this kid who knew so many people and started trusting everyone because of how nice they acted until one man gave him a candy which probably had some sleeping pills in it, and the pat on the back part means he probably got assaulted
imagine the part where the camera focuses on the house where it says “and the lay of the land” is his childhood house? because this video is basically talking about his childhood
This is literally music about Jack. Talking about his past. "Back, when I was just a boy." "They used to call me jack." "I used to know the locals, at the lake." "They let me stay up till five in the morning."
Lyrics Back, when i was just a boy Back, when i was just a boy Nothing was better than a pat on the back. Used to stay up til 5 in the morning.

Please come back Jack.

I love everyone that replied to this comment- You all made me uGlY laugh-
Jack when he says a word: A Profound Art
I love the audio effects in this one
this song sounds diagonal
It does :0
this comment needs more likes
why does this make sense lmaoo
it sounds like the letter W
idk why i might just be sleep deprived but i thought ur pfp moved for a split second
i feel like after you watch enough jack stauber content you just sorta stop finding it weird and just vibe out to the music
Yeah me too
Just hit that feeling like a week ago, it’s nice
yeah haha occasionally ill still be disturbed by things like now and then though lmao
That is so true
Me to
“Nothing was better, than a pat on... *bAcK”*
The Kid: 👁👄👁
Why are these songs not on any music platforms?? 😿 I need themmm
jesus christ this is terrifying lemme get 10 copies
How is this terrifying
@@sneerycarcass4702 everything
Really? I thought it was more unsettling than terrifying.
12ft Narcoleptic Panda agreed
Tbh I wasn’t scared cuz of lil baby jack
Lyrics (at least what I heard):
Back when I was just a boy
Back when I was just a boy
Nothing was better
Than a pat on the back
Used to stay up until 5 in the morning
They used to call me Jack
But that was all back
When I was just a boy
Back when I was just a boy
Nothing was better
Than a bird in your hand
I used to know the locals
And the lay of the land
Thanks
thnx
Everyone that needs a transcriptor, hire waterb0lt.
I think the last line is "And the lay of the land", to rhyme with "hand"
Thanks so much
i think it tells the story of this kid who knew so many people and started trusting everyone because of how nice they acted until one man gave him a candy which probably had some sleeping pills in it, and the pat on the back part means he probably got assaulted
Something about your videos makes me nostalgic❤
Can we just talk about how CHUBBY HIS CHEEKS ARE
He's got birds in there
Which cheeks
i find the little clay dude kinda "cute" in a way
@@waluigihentailover6926 oh my god u-
Waluigi HentaiLover69 back 🥴
This was the most surprisingly normal video for the most abstract song he's made
This isnt very abstract, tbh. There are moreso ones.
This is more abstract then there’s something happening?
Nimvader Nim no they’re saying it’s less abstract than that-
George Donaghey ruclips.net/video/wjT1HiLhT4w/видео.html
It kinda sounded like something from The Residents' Commercial Album.
imagine the part where the camera focuses on the house where it says “and the lay of the land” is his childhood house? because this video is basically talking about his childhood
i was just wondering what do u guys think?
Possibly, it could be the clay figures house too, it seems as id he was kidnapped (the figure) I mean maybe jack too, seems very unlikely to me tho.
So its 90s weirdcore/dreamcore odlly calming and creepy? and i freaking love it
This is literally music about Jack. Talking about his past.
"Back, when I was just a boy."
"They used to call me jack."
"I used to know the locals, at the lake."
"They let me stay up till five in the morning."
I think the last line is actually "lay of the land." If you listen closely there is no K
Tom Hawkins
Oo ty for the info!
@@Angel-bz5jm it is
@MrKrcklez please shut up. be quiet for several days
@MrKrcklez that’s not very nice
He’s back. And he’s singing about Backs. Genius👌🏾
This is like weirdcore kidcore and dreamcore at the same time and i just love it 👀☺️👾
jack i know u won’t see this but u helped me through all the bad times
Lyrics
Back, when i was just a boy
Back, when i was just a boy
Nothing was better
than a pat on the back.
Used to stay up til 5 in the morning.
They used to call me Jack
But that was all back, when i was just a boy
Back, when i was just a boy
Hey!
Nothing was better
than a birdie in my hand.
I used to know the locals, ("Oh hi." "Hello.")
and a lay of the land!
ur doing gods work
Thanks kid person
*buöy
**Acheivement unlocked: you can speak the minecraft enchantment table!**
What does "lay" mean? I don't speak English
this song smells like an old, antique pawn shop
Wait it dors
I haven’t been to one since quarantine, I really loved just looking around in them with my sister
It does though
Let me find the guy who ask.
and i love it
I have no idea why I’m addicted to these videos. It’s just- yes.
we need this on apple music, seriously
“Nothing was better than a pat on the back”

You are very good at making bizzare video

Yes
한국인을 여기서 만나네
idk how but I'm crying for no reason because of this video.
Jack stubers videos are so comforting and weird love it
I think what Jack really meant in this video is that:
He's back.

Yes
Amazing theory 🤧
Back hurt
Therapist: Back Stauber can't hurt you, he isn't real
Back Stauber:
Back stabber???
Hello, people of RUclips. I have gotten a bit of hate recently for purposely self promoting in the comments section of other creator’s videos. I am, of course, here to say that I apologize for doing this, and that I have deleted all of my self promoting comments. In other words, you can be rest assured you will not see links to my video in the comments of trending videos again. With that being said, I hope you have a nice day and enjoy your time on RUclips.
@@xxdiamond345xx3 did I ask
@@xxdiamond345xx3 "self promoting"? Kid, that is called spam and is annoying
@@xxdiamond345xx3 reverse psychology much
This is one of my favorite videos. Please keep doing what you do best!
check out this song ( quiet soul by the impures ) is a good song :)))
Jack is the king of weirdcore music
