      It’s like the songs always existed and he just needs to dust off the dirt like an archeologist or something! Seeing and hearing the joy when he finally hit that “but you hang stuff anyway” line was amazing to see and I’m so glad it was recorded

      Fellow JON BELLION Fans...
      It would mean a lot if you took a couple minutes to hear this Re-envision of CAUTIONARY TALES By Nicholas M.C.
      th-cam.com/video/q-hINxvoFLw/w-d-xo.html
      💜💜💜💜💜💜
      Thank you for those that do.
      Sometimes we can get so caught up in WHAT and WHO already "IS" in the NOW, that we forget they all had steps to take before getting to "BEING."
      P.s.
      Don't tell him about this. Shhhhh.

    Now, I say this is one of the best 20 minutes spent on TH-cam but if your only got 5 to listen to the song and see one moment, is this one.

      he only did this because he made a deal on other social media that if we got All Time Low into the top 20 on itunes that he would release the full making of Guillotine. Although i think most of us can agree that he should release more like this.

      Most of the artists today sample older music pieces, so the video would probably only have a Maximum of 5 minutes. Also, some other artist do have beat producers. But your comment is true to some extend, there are many artists where I would love to watch the behind the scenes.

    • @5PointPowerSword
      @5PointPowerSword 6 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Most big artists don't write their own music. Even those who write the lyrics typically don't produce the actual music/beats.

    • @5PointPowerSword
      @5PointPowerSword 6 ปีที่แล้ว +19

      That's what's so frustrating with trap hip hop and mumble rap because the lyrics are almost always so meaningless and uninspired. The beats are what is actually interesting, but you don't hear about the producers cause the artists are who gets the recognition and fame.

      I'd never heard of him or the song before, but when I got to 13:38 I knew I had to have it. So of course I went to find it.. only to find out the finished product is a radio-friendly pop/hiphop.. thing. All of the emotion of the lyrics have been completely negated. Honestly, I'll just put 13:38 on repeat.

    It's so refreshing to see the process of music. It's also so refreshing to see the artist himself producing and writing and just concocting his own content and music. It's hard to imagine a mainstream artist doing this with how set up everything is for that said artist. There are a ton of artist today who just come in to sing whatever produced music there already is for it to become their next hit single. Not saying all, but most. This is an example of someone who is truly so passionate and genuine about what they're doing and they release what feels good and sounds good to them. It makes for a great end result. So glad I came across this.
