Martha thank you for the dialectics i thought was about a type of therapy called Dialectic Behavioral Therapy and the person who created it was named Martha
your video on SELF-iSH and what i’ve seen of this video so far are really good, but what really made me hit subscribe was the inclusion of the Adventure Time clip. that scene with Betty was perfect for what you were trying to say. And, you know, people who like both will wood and adventure time, some of my favorite things, are usually pretty cool. keep it up!
@@quotheravennn and they say there’s no benefits to watching a bunch of cartoons! that scene has always haunted me, just the unnatural droning when she tries to make a wish, how small she is on the screen - scarier than anything else GOLB did. also, thanks!!!
wow. literally wow. i have no words. i've been interested in will wood's music for a little bit now, but i'm not really the best at deciphering the meaning of lyrics (which is pretty unfortunate considering how deep his lyrics are) and this video genuinely left me without words. there's so much in this album to understand which also means that there is so much more that i never knew about this album, so this video was a genuine shock to me, and in the best way possible. i am genuinely so surprised that i saw that you only have 1.57k subscribers, you are genuinely so underrated. thank you so much for this
Socrates is now my favourite she/they icon 😌 I love your videos so much !!! I guess you will eventually do a ICIMI video :0 can't wait but also please take your time and get some rest uwu
ahhh tysm! don’t worry an ICIMI video is planned, i was thinking of having it be 1K sub special if we keep growing at this rate, but if it’s been too long i’ll do it anyway :) in the meantime, i’ve got some shorter vids and deep dives of other artists planned!
I recommend watching the live in studio recording of Marsha on Will’s YT! Seeing the band play really brings you into the song and greatened my respect for Will. Great vid and I just subbed!
I really like these kind of video essays, the format is plenty pleasing. The way the content creator analyzes the music has intrigued me. I think I might start paying more attention to the meaning rather than simply saying; 'Sound good, I listen.'
I normally (haha) am not interested in videos like this about will’s stuff because im scared about them getting too personal or try to relate it directly to will himself but this was very good and well put together analysis!! Great video!!
@@madison2648 That was my intent! I had heard when I started the first one about people being invasive so I wanted to explore the themes and story of each album while respecting his boundaries
quite a few songs i really liked, hard to pick a favorite. never realized memento mori was one of his songs, i've heard it before. excited for the next greek philosopher
First saw this channel, and HOW MANY SUBSCRIBERS? You are awfully underrated, the video is peak and very greatly stylised, absolutely subscribing and wishing you’ll gain the recognition you deserve!
@@Alisuslolthank you, it means a lot! even this amount of attention is crazy to me, and all i can hope is that people enjoy these videos as much as i enjoy making them :)
The effort you put into this video is actually insane omg!! Tysm for this breakdown, now I can understand the album a bit better! Esp. since Im european and while (for Suburbia) I know about the cultural norms of that time in America my brain didnt connect the dots rightaway since I have a different background. Yk plus just some general cultural references fly over my head. So again, thank you! I can now appreciate Will's art even more❤
after that phenomenal self-ish analysis i knew this one would be just as great. i love how much thought was put into this and i was not disappointed at all!
hello! wonderfull video, truly. i was just researching about blackboxwarrior, although most of it is a bit... difficult to analyze, the thousands of words I had to search up were genuinely fun to investigate and once you get all off it is is one hell of a ride, lines like phineas gage flagpole (which relates to being subject to so much pain for your country/flag to the point of lobotomy (in a way I guess)), to "Why to thine own self be true" which is from hamlet, the song could really have a full fledged full video dedicated to it!
@@malware1987 i remember dying a bit on the inside when i opened the lyrics page and seeing all those words… like “how the hell am i gonna analyze all this” a little follow up breaking it down is a very cool idea tho! i’m def adding it to the list (and will credit you dw)
@@ravsucks I’m looking forward to it!! Your video also helped me understand the album better which makes the album a lot more interesting to relisten too
@@xeniavenyaketchupfish maybe eventually! i’ll admit that my eye is on ICIMI next, because it feels like a good progression from this and SELF-iSH. but i do like will wood, so it’s not off the table
@@WilliamWhyles Yes! ICIMI is next, working on that (it’s supposed to be the 1K subscriber special, but just taking longer than I expected…) After that, I’m not sure when I’ll cover EIAL, but I’ll get to it!
do you have any thoughts about black box warrant? its an early version of blackboxwarrior, released originally on "the real" and theres a good portion of changed lyrics (he goes even faster though, good luck understanding lmao)
@@flourish7759 don’t worry, i plan on it! i promised it as the 1K sub special, but i reached that goal faster than I was prepared for, so it’s gonna be a few weeks
@@paticornio9592 In this video and my SELF-iSH one, I give names to the narrator to easier describe them. Plato’s Cave was a metaphor in the last album, thus I called him Plato. Socrates was Plato’s teacher, ergo I named this guy Socrates. Also, it was the name of Will’s pet rat, so double reference.
@@ravsucksohhh! that's smart. If you explained it here, I missed it, and I'll watch the selfish vid next. You did a very good job with this video!!!! Btw, it's will who plays the piano in every track, including marsha
yeah i see i can definitely see the oingo boingo influence thing, especially with ww’s vocals in his older stuff (less so now, though). some other bands/artists i KNOW for sure influenced him are tom waits, squirrel nut zippers, and mr bungle. would recommend all of those three btw
