Stephen Hillenburg was already a legend for creating one of the best cartoons ever, but the more I did research on him, the more a realized he was so much more than that. According to people who knew him (his wife, kids, and coworkers), Hillenburg was a funny, good-hearted, and down to earth guy who loved his family more than anything. He is a shy person who never wanted to become a celebrity, he just wanted to make people happy and pursue his passions. He used the money he got from SpongeBob to become a philanthropist, giving money to marine life organizations, hospitals, artists, and a myriad of general purpose charities. The Princess Grace Foundation was even able to start a scholarship program in his name, The Stephen Hillenburg Animation Scholarship was funded by the Hillenburg family to help aspiring artists. Stephen Hillenburg was as authentic as they come. Rest easy King
I'm glad Stephen Hillenburg was genuine, other people who are famous/most look up to are fucked up assholes, but I'm glad Stephen Hillenburg was a great dude all-around.
To all Spongebob fans and those who knew Stephen Hillenburg: This is Harrison, I'm a MASSIVE Spongebob Squarepants fan. I've seen most of the series, seen two movies and heard of lots games about him. But aside from that, I'm deeply sad about his passing. But Stephen would'nt want us to be sad and grieving over him, he would want us to be happy with everything around us. So for Stephen, let's raise a glass to the man who invented the people of Bikini Bottom - Stephen Hillenburg! 🖖Rest in peace, may you rest peacefully
The verse at 1:34 is legitimately the smoothest AI cover with multiple voices I've ever heard. Squidward, Plankton and Mr Krab's voices has so much emotion it's insane.
The have to end SpongeBob the BEST WAY POSSIBLE, it better not be another gay move from SpongeBob otherwise nickelodeon is swear on just making money not caring the soul that SpongeBob used to FRICKING have
No joke, I started to tear up when Plankton came in. I guess his natural, angry tone does well with an emotional song My only complaint is that I wish there was a moment where all the characters were singing together. We got a taste towards the end, but I was waiting for big show-stopper Harmony
I just realized that’s the five stages of grief. 😂 hey, if we aren’t laughing, we’re crying, so thanks for the really good ai cover. Best I’ve ever seen. 😂😊❤
Not “could ever do” it’s “would ever do” because they not only had the money and resources to do something amazing for him but they also had the connections but they deliberately chose not to honor the best cartoon creator despite him bringing them their best show ever and he was a pure good man just ask the people who knew him and all they’ll say is good things
They did marathon previous episodes in wake of his death in 2018, and they did make the big 20th anniversary special, "SpongeBob's Big Birthday Blowout".
@@Ash1627they didn't get along with him behind the scenes. They kept trying to meddle with the show. It got so bad during the making of the first movie that he left. That's when the quality dropped off.
I’m trying not to cry. As a thirty year old man and a crazy SpongeBob fan, this is absolutely amazing. May Stephen Hillenburg rest in God’s loving arms. In the name of the Father, the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen! 😭
There will never ever be anyone like Stephen Hillenburg. We didn’t deserve him. He impacted my childhood like so many. Watching this, I cried like I did the day we lost. That’s something I’ll never forget.
Man...Hillenburg got saddled with one of the worst diseases known to man and it killed him, and that sucks, but few else ever in history can lay claim to the fact they invented a bunch of characters so influential to people that those people went and made it possible that those characters could sing them out. I'd be floored. I'm sure Hillenburg would adore this.
Wow. What a way to remember one of the greatest tv show creators of all time. Rest easy, Mr. Hillenburg. You may be gone, but your show will always live on.
That last photo was just heartbreaking this whole time Hans was The hands of the creator himself a poetic, with beautiful symbolization that Hillenberg created this show it just makes so much sense that the characters all loved the hand that made them it’s beautiful
This is horribly underrated, a few parts could be less louder but other than that, this cover is awesome Rest In Peace Stephen Hillenburg I hope you and the other legends are up there having a good time
Yeah, I hated this video because it was a trash tribute to me. Even Sicko Mode was a better tribute to me at the Super Bowl 53 halftime show than this.
Spongebob: Cherished everything, no matter how small. Patrick: Didn't have much and didn't need much and was content with that. Squidward: Didn't want anyone to care but they did anyway. Mr. Krabs: Couldn't let go of even nothing itself if it was worth something. Plankton: Wanted everything and didn't understand what he already had but always appreciated it anyway.
Stephen was my childhood hero.The impact he made on the animation industry will be tough to beat. And we’re so lucky to experience his work. I don’t think we’ll ever get a new storyteller/animator like him in our lifetime. R.I.P. Ocean Man.
Goodbye Stephen Hillenburg thank you for creating SpongeBob and his friends and family and thank you for all you've done for everyone we will miss you dearly 😟
"How high's he gonna go?" "All the way Patrick, up to the great beyond." "Goodbye, friend!" "Happy trails!" Rest in peace, Stephen Hillenburg. I will always cherish and value the vast and incalculable amounts of joy you brought me and so many other people as children. The value of your work on modern entertainment cannot begin to be understated. I hope wherever you are now, you are just as ready as Spongebob was in Help Wanted. ❤🧽
This isn't just a tribute to Stephen this is a tribute to all our childhoods of the generation of late 90s to 2010 Stephen we can't thank you enough for all you did in making our childhoods across the world just the best thing ever
mother of god this makes me cry like a baby. this show has made so many people happy, and been such a cornerstone of...well, pop culture in general for so long. the clips edited in from the older episodes are really getting me in the feels thank you, stephen. your creation brings countless people so much joy
How in the world is it I always manage to find something I never realized I actually wanted to hear and see? This is probably the most perfect AI all around. Not just vocally but even the whole video segment. Very well put together and a beautiful tribute.
This was fantastically made and deserves far more love. Not only was the mix great, but the video editing was perfect. You can really tell how much love and care was put into this.
As someone thst grew up with SpongeBob SquarePants this is a nice little tribute to the late Stephen Hillenburg he would've loved this Can't wait for the 25th anniversary next year and the 20th anniversary of the first movie
@@SteamingHillenturdsplease shut the hell up, why do you think this is funny/a good idea? You're being extremely disrespectful. If you don't like SpongeBob fine, but how could you think that making a entire account JUST to make fun of a dead man is a good idea?? People like you are terrible
If this could be used in an episode, here’s the synopsis: SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Plankton, and Mr Krabs are competing together at the Bikini Bottom Olympics. It is clear they have different strengths and weaknesses, and the weaknesses keep getting the best of them and are in last place. When they finally get a grip, they start winning, but one of the opposing teams sabotages them, putting the blame on each other. They have an argument, split up, then in the middle of the night they separately sing this song as they feel sorry about themselves. Then early the next day, SpongeBob manages to get them all back together again for one last chance of winning. They arrive at the final event seconds before forfeiting. The team who cheated tries to sabotage them again, but it doesn’t work and SpongeBob’s team wins!
That last picture was perfect for the ending of the song ♥️ all of them holding his hand- RIP Stephen thank you for making our childhood something so special 😭
Stephen Hillenburg: A Nickelodeon legend. Thanks for all the amazing content and laughs, including the childhood memories, Stephen. Thank you so so so so SO much. We will all miss you very incredibly much. Again, Thank you for the childhood memories. Rest in Peace, Stephen Hillenburg. Rest in peace.
The characters praising and thanking the best man for all the many sweet years they gave to many children and he will never be forgotten for the great treasure he gave us and we will forever remember him from the Greatest series ever seen And hopefully this will not mean the end for everyone's favorite yellow sponge.
This is, hands down, the best AI cover I've heard, in voice simulation alone; these are really on the mark, most of the others I've heard sound more like a guy showing off at a party who's kinda good at impressions, but, not as good as he thinks he is.
I can’t stop crying right now it’s just pure beautiful perfection I hope Stephen Hillenburg has a better place in heaven for himself he really will be missed/R.I.P Stephen Hillenburg you really made everything amazing with SpongeBob SquarePants himself you will never be forgotten by all of us😥😥😥😥😥😭😭😭😭😭😢😢
Thank you Stephen, for all the memories and for making our childhoods so much better. Your legacy is eternal in the childhoods of thousands of children to this day and can never be tarnished no matter how much Nickelodeon tries.
RIP king, I remember watching SpongeBob with my dad as a kid. My dad actually liked to watch SpongeBob that’s how good of a show it was. Rest In Paradise Stephen
This is honestly beautiful. It feels like you actually put a lot of effort into it, unlike many AI cover videos that are just made for views. This feels genuine and like you cared about the end product. To honor Steven Hillenburg and as well as the millions of SpongeBob Fans, giving them a proper tribute unlike the horrible Superbowl thing. A TRIBUTE WE DESERVE👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Viacom, nicks parent company got 1/4th of their revenue from spongebob merchandise alone. Spongebob backpacks and lunchboxes etc were worth more than all of MTV. To this day nick runs at least 2 hours of spongebob reruns everyday because people still want to watch the reruns.
