Dude if anyone on this platform deserves to blow up it’s you! The music, the editing, it’s all so polished and so high quality, the work you put into these videos really shows, keep it up Spencer :)
At the risk of rephrasing? Sean is 1000% correct. The only thing I would add? This music and this show have a wide audience. And I saw the song with household objects. You’re more than good, Spencer. You have “it.” No one calls or sends a check. You can make money at this making good music. That is rare. There are major markets for what you do. College to Seniors. Go where people appreciate your virtuosity. You have what most loose: you still enjoy this. I subscribed about a month ago. You Rock ~ stefan
I appreciate that, Craig! I got tired of clicking them into the grid, so I just started practicing them on the ole' keyboard. Certainly makes it more convenient!
This is such a clear and concise explanation of something that is almost intuitive when you already know it, but impenetrable when you're trying to figure it out. Good song too! This would fit right into that late 90s early 00s good-times rock playlist. Also, isn't funny how you've gotten like 5x subscribers in a couple weeks cause you decided to bang on a mug with some pencils and tons of people resonated with that? The internet is a funny thing sometimes. Keep it up!
oh yeah, that feeling like nobody cares it's even worse than when someone dislike your music. I'm glad that after all this years you finally found some appreciation
Listening to your pieces is always a pleasant surprise. You are really good at writing, playing and singing, arranging and producing at home as if it were a pro recording studio. Kudos to you, you are an inspiration to a musician. A big round of applause 👏
I've always had trouble taking an idea and turning it into a full song but after watching some of your stuff I've learned so many things that'll help me make a full song! Thanks!
I love the mastery to completely encompass what makes a song come together... it is simple in its final form, but its not simple to be able to play guitar, bass, sing, midi drums, and be a master editor of both audio and video. Thank you Spencer its so fun to see! My favorite quote is "Simple things are either trivial or curated" You are a curator!
I am so happy that I stumbled upon your channel. For me, it is one of two that I came across recently, that somehow make it through and manage to touch something that makes me start to feel inspired to make music … again. And for someone who is currently working on climbing up from yet another dark hole aka major depressive episode, that sure isn’t a small thing. After my drive to even get up and try to create at least something like a simple sketch had, most of the enjoyable things, ground to a hold, watching your videos has something uplifting: a small but bright light. And this means a lot to me. It doesn’t mean that things will come easy to me any time soon, but it feels so good to watch you create those tracks. It is doable. It takes effort, for sure, but it starts with a first step. And from there, well, see where it might lead. Another day, another first step. - Well, thank you very much for creating those songs and for creating those videos!
Your videos wouldve been a life saver for me as a teen. You simplify everything so beautifully and of course your editing and production are top knotch. Took me years to learn what I did know lol. Keep up the stellar work.
Loving your videos! I went to school for audio recording a while back, but never really learned about song writing in this way, and hearing you add each layer to make a final production is absolutely fantastic! Keep up the great work!
Hey Spencer!! I've been binge watching all your content for the last couple of days here. Heck, even going as far as to watch some of them multiple times, which if you ask me is how you know you got something special on your hands. So whats cool about you my friend is you, and I have a lot in common from our musical abilities, variety of instruments, our age, lo... (I will be 30 later this year) and we're both content creators doing our thing on this online space. Allow me to add you're more of a complete content creator, I kinda still just throw shit at the wall with little to no semblance, but it works! Anywho, really proud of you, genuinely, and I'm extremely thrilled/thankful that the YT Algorithm Gods are blessing you. You must take this as far as you can, I need not tell you this. I can say this with a sense of certainty that I have a deep affinity for what this must all mean to you in this moment for you in life (Your YT success that is) and man what a joyous time, man. You did it, no, YOU ARE DOING IT! lemme know if you ever wanna collaborate, no pressure, but more importantly please don't stop. You gotta double down now, and strike, and I know you will. Peace, and love brother from the bottom of my heart! -ColSeth
A really inspiring video. I love videos like this where you break down how you wrote and recorded a song...and this song is very cool. I dig the bass lines on this and the keyboard drumming is impressive. Love it.
Thank you, thank you!! As someone new to songwriting this was so helpful and insightful. You explain things simply and concisely. I am inspired to move forward and explore my songwriting. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and your love of music! Keep up the great work and enjoy the ride!
Well done. I love seeing videos like this. "Good" sounding music at it's core starts at the heart and is fairly simple. There are so many youtube videos that are good but at the same time complicate things way to much. Keep em comin brother
Dude, I stumbled on your channel a few days ago and I'm binging through your content. You are absolutely killing it! Keep it up and thank you so much for doing what you do!
I've been digging your videos! Just found your channel the other day in my recommendations and after seeing the quality and effort you put into your videos, I slapped that subscribe button faster than Les Claypool slapping a bass
All hail to the algorithm, and even more hail to you. I know two chords and you've show what can be done. Think I'll be coming back to this video for the foreseeable for motivation and reassurance as to how bloody good simplicity can be.
As someone who doesn't really like Pop Rock (or most music with lyrics), this sounds really great! Most of all I like your positive attitude, and showing us the "magic" behind the songs :)
For as long as you do what you do; I am here for it! And may it all lead to an album... And Spencer, not just any album...like an old school double disc special kinda album! God bless bro.
Awesome video! My buddy just sent me this because he knows I've been starting to try and write music. Ton of good info in here for me to work on. Subscribed!
Hi Spencer! I am very glad that I came across your previous video yesterday. Subscribed and fingers crossed for you channel to grow fast. I love the "today's takeaway" segment and how fine you put together important thoughts. Keep it comming, bro!!!
I'm new here... I cannot believe that you are not followed by millions. I guess time will tell, but I'd bet on it. You have no idea how inspiring and entertaining you are, not to mention talented. Awesome stuff!
Great job, loving your voice and really everything about it, tight songs and like what you did by withholding the second half of the song as an engaging surprise🔥
word ! thank you so much for what you do , simplicity is a a very big part of wrighting the best songs ever , i think you can do even better , I think you can do what i did, a hit song using 2 chords , although , it did take me some team work though with my band mates , who are no longer amongst the living , but it was our biggest selling single in the band i was in at the long time ago , keep up the good work !
12:00 I love your videos, it's not like those generic "me do x me do song", it's well edited and fun to watch, keep going, I hope you'll have a happy and fulfilling life!
Everything here is top notch! Music, video, sound, editing. There's not an ounce/gram of fat here. Every second counts and is intentional. Bravo!
Dude if anyone on this platform deserves to blow up it’s you! The music, the editing, it’s all so polished and so high quality, the work you put into these videos really shows, keep it up Spencer :)
WiIl do, Sean! Thank you so much for the support. It makes all the hard work worth it!

Dude, your keyboard drumming is outstanding. That little hat roll was slick!
I appreciate that, Craig! I got tired of clicking them into the grid, so I just started practicing them on the ole' keyboard. Certainly makes it more convenient!
@@songsbyspencer Spencer plz make a Tutorial for US! ThankYou
OMG ! Gonna have this song in head for days... !!!
I was shocked to see that this only has 3.6k views, it seems like something that would have a million by now. Insanely underated
Your videos are inspiring for all of us bedroom rockers and weekend garage warriors. Rock on broski!
Fantastic! "Monica" is missing out if she doesn't call you back. Great window into the creative process. Thanks for posting.
I’ve never seen anyone lay down a drum track on a keyboard in one take - incredible!!
Dude don’t stop! Your channel is my jam at the moment 😂 just soo clean and wholesome, entertaining and educating. You’re a gem❤
I appreciate that so much, Joe! The support makes it all worthwhile. Lots more cool stuff in the works!
This is such a clear and concise explanation of something that is almost intuitive when you already know it, but impenetrable when you're trying to figure it out. Good song too! This would fit right into that late 90s early 00s good-times rock playlist.

Love it! I would listen on repeat if you would publish it somewhere. Could you cover mix and EQ?
You shine like a million snails?
You crawl like a million snails
You snail like a million shines!
oh yeah, that feeling like nobody cares it's even worse than when someone dislike your music. I'm glad that after all this years you finally found some appreciation
Love the way you do drums. Way more realistic than just clicking in the midi with a mouse. Much more dynamic isn't robotic to a click.
I really like the positive outlook....and the obvious talent.
Listening to your pieces is always a pleasant surprise. You are really good at writing, playing and singing, arranging and producing at home as if it were a pro recording studio. Kudos to you, you are an inspiration to a
musician. A big round of applause 👏
Great friday audioplz and you.!...ah the D6....
You are inspiring me Spencer.
Nice video, but the real question is when are you going to drop this banger on Spotify?
I've always had trouble taking an idea and turning it into a full song but after watching some of your stuff I've learned so many things that'll help me make a full song! Thanks!
^THIS is the power of arranging. Thanks for pointing out!
And that... is how it's done! Great work

I dig it… it’s so easy to bypass simplicity. The track had a real Elvis Costello vibe
Man, you rock. Good teacher, funny, amazing musician. Keep it up ! So cool we love U!
This is the kind of content that makes me want to write and record original songs again, thanks!
Your videos wouldve been a life saver for me as a teen. You simplify everything so beautifully and of course your editing and production are top knotch. Took me years to learn what I did know lol. Keep up the stellar work.
