    I love how the chorus intensifies each time.
    "That can be told,"
    "That _will_ be told,"
    "That *_shall_* be told."
    More confident each time. It's fantastic.

      Feksander I think "shall" and "will" mean basically the same thing, but "shall" is more formal so it's stronger that way. Also there's something forceful about the way he sings it.

      We all make plans about how life will go, and some of them we pin a lot of hope on. But they don't always work out. Sometimes you gotta keep trying but other times it might be a good idea to just give up on them and try something different.
      Life seems short in the grand scheme of things but really we all have a lot of life ahead of us and so long as we live there is telling how it will turn out. Life has limitless possibilities for everyone, and we won't know how it all turned out until its over.
      So maybe just try something new? Move to Hollywood, start at podcast, join the coast guard, doesn't matter what, doesn't matter if it works out or not. If it doesn't then just move on and try something else. If it does, well there you go, now you have a real life going. Life goes on and with it comes endless opportunities to make memories and enjoy life. So keep on keeping on.

    I love how some of the lyrics are so meaningful like "I remember the moment when my dreams were broken" and "it's a long long road and we follow it again and again" and then some of them are just "went down to the Coast Guard to see what they're guarding, see what the sign says you idiot we're guarding the coast" and yet the song still flows so well

    • @simpumoon
      @simpumoon 3 ปีที่แล้ว +57

      Yes, in both lyrics and music. Bill Wurtz has been able to make people feel like there is meaning to his songs. Of course there is only meaning when you want there to be. That’s why I feel this song is kind of “free form” while the music guiding it to follow the beat as well. It’s a very clever tactic that takes a long time to master. Keep looking for meanings. (You’re doing such a good job than most people)!

    • @dat_fast_boi
      @dat_fast_boi ปีที่แล้ว +14

      @@simpumoon I beg to differ: I don't think you can find meaning in every individual lyric, but if you pay attention to what's overall being said, I think there is some form of meaning.
      Sometimes it's more blatant than others; "might quit" makes a whole lot more sense when you understand he left to learn more 3D animation, and this one makes more sense when you contextualise the "long long journey" as Bill's youtube career.

    • @sagehanson190
      @sagehanson190 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      ​@@Jaws31 There's nothing wrong with saying something has meaning because you want it to. That statement can be applied to just about any piece of art, really. I mean, sure, you can ask yourself what the meaning in a piece of art is, and chances are the artist who made it had something in mind, that 'something' being the 'meaning.' But, I think it's a little more complex than that. There are a lot of people out there who try to discover the intended meaning behind art when faced with it, people who try to get into the mind of the artist. There's nothing wrong with that of course, a lot of art is made to convey a message or idea, and understanding that will help you better appreciate the piece and the artist. But, at the same time, I feel it's equally, if not more important to find your own meaning in art. The things we humans create are most powerful when we can relate them to our own lives and experiences. And, the thing is, something doesn't have to have a defined meaning for it to still be meaningful. An artist doesn't have an idea or message to convey for their creation to be powerful. This song, and many others by Bill Wurtz, very much feel like they embrace that idea of letting people find their own meaning in the music, and that's just fine in my book.

      It means that even if you're so sure that you're going to fail that you think you already have, try anyway. Even if you fail, the second part of that sentance covers you. "And if I came here to lose, I still might win when I go down that road again." The "going down that road again" is not giving up, and trying a second time.

The “snapping feel” the music gives also help the message you think the song is trying to convey. The tone also really helps here.

    “I know that this video is a bill wurtz video and is supposed to make no sense, but this one truly speaks to me. There’s so much truth to it. It symbolizes the Journey of life. When you’re younger, you have so many dreams that you want to achieve. When you get older, you figure out that many of those dreams aren’t going to happen. You become stuck on this long long journey of life. You don’t know what your next step should be. You have so much time ahead of you, but what will you do with it? The song seems to be about someone reminiscing on this time of life. They’re remembering the journey they went on to get to the point they are at now. The song ends by saying that it’s still a ‘long long long way forward.’ The journey isn’t over, and it never will be, like the never-ending road it mentioned. It’s as if the message he is trying to show is that even if life may not be infinite, the journey is. There’s an infinite amount of choices you will make. There’s an infinite amount of of memories. So even though sometimes you are stuck and don’t know what to do with the rest of your life journey, you will get through it. You have already been through so much, and you can and will get through so much more. Good times, not so good times, they’re all part of that journey.”

      @simpumoon 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Okay, great job! Glad to see some people actually listen to the lyrics. There is a difference to listening and hearing by the way. I feel this song has a more “free form” style to it. It could mean anything. I do agree with your thoughts as to how this is about the “journey of life.” However, looking deeper can really help you feel more if you want. It is clear that the music has a uppity feel to it, and that the lyrics are very cleverly written by, having a certain meaning to them. Being able to put these things together, allows the lyrics to feel more impactful than if you match them together. I’m more of a literary person, than a musical genius. I find lyrics more fun to decipher than how they sync with music. The cheerful music, combined with the contradicting lyrics really get the song in your head. It also makes you feel inspired to keep going. It seems you think this song is about the “journey of life,” and it is clear that, that message is one of the easier ones to grasp than others. As I take from it, putting these two parts together, really help the song as a whole. In both lyrics and music. This tactic is a classic, and is a very good one to get messages sent clearly, cleverly, and fun. I’m glad you’re able to pull a meaning out of this song, it shows that you are invested and actively listening, to try and understand. The “free form” style is a good way to get you think, and feel. The music is really the donkey carrying the goods here. (You’re doing better than others by thinking). ;)

  • @flamingwaffels
    @flamingwaffels 6 ปีที่แล้ว +719

    Alright, so I might just be shooting in the dark here, but I'm gonna try and explain the story of the video, lol.
    The video and song follows three different people on their journey in life.
    The first man had his hopes and dreams crushed, and so he threw then away- but he threw them in a RECYCLING bin. Just after that, he jumped out of the recycling bin to live a new life off the land. This represents how he recycled his ambitions and dreams into a new life he could enjoy even though what he wanted to do was no longer an option for him. He represents everyone who has had to change their end goal in life but still came out on top.
    The second verse is about triangle boy. He was a painter and an artist, but felt little inspiration from painting pictures anymore, hence the verses, "I'm in this museum looking for paintings I relate to, even though MOST of them were painted by somebody else," implying that he painted some of them. After watching lots of movies with his friends, he found his true inspiration as a film director and went on to fulfill his new dream.
    Finally, the third verse follows a famous musician who has either short or long term memory loss, but records his memories in his songs so he can call home and tell everyone what he's been doing, but of course they already know because they support him and his carreer. We know he has memory loss because of the podcast comment, "even though I can't remember anything before the show."
    Finally, the interludes and chorus are about all of them, and all of us. We all have amazing lives and a spectacular story to be told, and it's been quite the journey to get to where we are.
    Like the comment if you like my explanation so others can see and we can discuss!!
    Edit: spelling!

    This video somehow feels very different from the rest. Maybe because it doesn't have weird musical changes.
    It's definetly the most coherent bill wurtz video apart from the history ones. It really feels like Bill is trying something new (I know that he always did something new and was never really predictable, but I strongly feel that this video is majorly different from his other works.)
    I really like it. This time it's not mostly fun because of its wurtzness but its catchiness.

      Yeah, it's a little more similar to the 3 songs he made right after the world history one (not counting "got to know what's going on", because that's a very different tone compared to the other 3, it's still a really good song though), or some of his other, older songs that got a little creative.

    a man tries to commit ѕuiсidе after writing a note. after a bit of consideration he realizes that it was a bad idea, throws away the note, and decides to go out on a journey with a few friends to experience it all before considering anything. on his journey, not only did his mood get better and better, he also found meanings for life during the journey. as the lyrics show, the friends who didn't go with the man are still filled with hope as the man tells everyone about himself.

    This makes me wanna write a story where the main characters just go around on an endless road trip, exploring their cool, strange world. There's no real end goal; they're on a journey simply because they want to be.

    I really like how the character's design 'improves' during the song, it's almost if he's finding himself because of the long long long journey he's having.
