Dinners not over is about how life is like a meal there’s parts that are really delicious parts where you don’t want to eat anymore and parts that aren’t so good and dessert is death a sweet taste but at the same time isn’t the best for you it addresses how some people want dessert sooner than later referring to people who are suicidal but they have to learn that there’s more to the dinner then just dessert
@@TheBroSisEffect if you listen to his songs over and over and over again you start yo be able to make out the words. My favorite song from him is "Pad Thai".
I think “now and then” is about overcoming past trauma because when he was taking the stuff out of his past self it represented reflection and learning from past mistakes and experiences. Jack is crazy, man😂 that’s why I love him tho
Dinner is Not Over and Keyman have been extended into full, video-less songs through Jack Stauber's Micropop! You could listen to those two fully! Jack does post full-length music videos, like Koi Boy and Dead Weight, on his main channel, but those are from his full albums rather than his micropops (the less than minute long videos he uploads.) Dinner is Not Over is speculated to be a song against suicide, but in its full version, it comes across as more of a song from a troubled lover who has been "broken over and over again" and asks for commitment from their partner in the verses leading up to the main jingle. He expresses his frustration with said partner "pushing him down until he's fine" after the second run-around of the thirty-second jingle you listened to in the video. Keyman is about God Knows What. Jack, on occasion, makes songs for no good reason other to be absolute unintelligble bops.
Keyman is about a person scared of being judged and given a role by other people, I am pretty sure. In the end they grow to accept that sometimes a simplification allows things to be more memorable and precious.
Since I didn’t see much about the meaning of Keyman, I’ll try my best from what I know. I’m pretty sure Keyman is about not wanting to be known for just one thing, hence the lyrics “if I jingle my keys, don’t call me Keyman please.” It’s about wanting people to know you for more than something you did. Like, possibly with Jack’s song, Buttercup, becoming famous and the other songs he had written were ignored, and he was known as the man who wrote Buttercup instead of an artist who created countless, amazing songs. But hey, that’s just a theory, a SoNg ThEoRy!
Dinner is Not Over is supposed to be a dialogue between a suicidal person and their friend telling them to go on living. "I've tasted dying and it tasted good", is in reference to the person's desperation as they begin to almost crave death, and their friend is trying to keep him alive by saying that in essence, it's okay if you want to die, because it'll happen to everyone anyway, but finish living your life first or else it will be a waste. "Dinner" means life in this song, and it's a lot more clear in the full version.
dinner is not over basically is a song about suicide. the term “dinner is not over” means your life is not over. the part where he says “I’ve tasted dying and it tasted good, but thats dessert. you can have it, when the dinner is gone”, means that no matter how much you have like..the urge to y’know, slip and slide, you haven’t lived your life yet. live your life, with the sweet taste of different things(the friendship, heartbreak, people, and the dying part) live your life first, and THEN when your done, you can finally have…dessert. basically, if you don’t finish your dinner, you don’t get dessert.
I'm pretty sure dinner isn't over is an some sort of anti suicide psa. That makes me enjoy more though, as I think its a very thoughtful message. Also, y'all should totally watch new normal it's cool. :)
welp for dinners not over, the food and dessert is a metaphor for life. Dessert is dying, dinner is experiences living. Don’t eat dessert before you’ve finished dinner translates to, “don’t end life before it’s over.” In other words, he’s asking you not to kill yourself and the imagery which is a lil alarming confirms it when the dessert is a literal gravestone and noose.
bit late to this but now and then is about a traumatic event, and as someone who has experienced life changing trauma i understood it pretty well. Im gonna name the two people in this Now and Then, because they are the same person. Then is dead, which is the old Now. Same person, different time. Something terrible happened in between and the old him is dead, which is Then. Now can take parts of Then to keep going, to patch himself up a bit. To finally feel a little better through acceptance of the past. And after feeling anxious for so long it took a second for Now to realize that its excitement. He is finally able to continue on his life, even if he isnt the man he once was.
People in the comments of now and then say that it was about the phrase, “new year, new me”. I mean I do understand what they say. The dead guy on the floor was the guy the year before, and out of all the stuff inside his past self, his “new” self is deciding what he wants to carry on the year. And the reason why it has the part of anxiety being the thought of excitement, is simply the person anxious about what will happen in the year, but yet still, being excited. And the video was published on the first day of 2020 if I’m sure

Dinner is not over because dinner is life, that's why dying was dessert.

This is very helpful 😊 We are glad we weren't the only ones not to get Keyman 😂

In Now and Then, the text is backwards because it’s for him to read.
From his point of view, it’s not backwards.

Advice: if a title has Jack's name in it, it's a song." If it doesn't have his name, it isn't a song.

Thank you for this insight! We definitely saw more into the meaning after watching it again.

Man you guys really make me happy thanks for the upload
We are honored! Thank you so much for watching our video 😁
Fun fact: jack stauber always puts a hidden meaning to the song
Listen to Benny worm by Jack Stauber
Holy Schmokes!
Hey is that benny worm?
@@Housing_Crisis it’s Benny wooorrrmmm it’s Benny wo-or-oorrmmm
Holy SMOKES ITS BENNY WOOORM
Keyman was about him not wanting to be known for one thing
Pretty cool, thanks! 😎
“a BoOb”
“yep”
oh and dinner is life, desert is death, so it’s about suicide and someone convicting someone not to commit
i think that ‘love will’ is about murder because the last line is “love won’t flow through those veins but love will, oh love will”
@StayinWithTheLores oh yeah lol
Jack Stauber speaks his own language

We are glad you liked it! 😊 We definitely plan on reacting to more of Jack's work.
Take the video into account too when deciphering the video, and you should read lyrics more if you have trouble making it out.
We are definitely going to look them up more in the future, thanks!

coming late to the vid, but since "Now and Then" was a January video i think is about leaving your old self behind, taking only the important things
Aww boo isn’t in here :( awesome video though
Thank you! 😀 We are working through our request list as quick as we can.
Overthinking humans
Love will might be talking about domestic abuse saying "blood spilled round the kitchen floor"
Yes!
The reason why the words were backwards is because it's for the guy to read, not us.
you need to watch on of Jack's older songs called Better
We will add it to our list, thanks! 😊
Better is really underrated in my opinion
You guys should react to his newest one, new normal.
