    “This is a song about how much I’ve come to dislike living in London. Since moving there I managed to get this horrid phlegmy cough for 2 years straight, doctor’s confirmed it was pollution caused. Later on I started to exhibit signs of asthma. Unfortunately, I’ve not managed to escape yet but hopefully I shall sometime soon (hopefully somewhere more sunny).
    The song takes a rather dark turn at the end, after experiencing people take their lives on the London underground only to receive disgruntled groans by commuters who will now be late for whatever it is they’re going to, one becomes quite jaded to the human condition in general. I guess this last line was me putting blame on the city rather than those commuters or the poor people who commited suicide." - wilburs own annotation from the genius lyric page for jubilee line

    After everything that’s happened within the past weeks. It feels like a part of me died because I’ve been watching Wilbur soot since 2018, and knowing what has happened ruined me. I cant even be in denial. I knew Wilbur was gonna be in some kind of scandal but I didn’t expect it to be as horrible as this. I’m so torn if I could even separate the artist from the art or just stop listening to him entirely. What he’s done definitely cannot be forgiven and I hope Shelby gets all the support after all that happened.

    As much as this gives off some pretty depressing vibes, it also gives me a strange sense of warmth and comfort. I remember stressing over homework at 1 am to the point where I was almost crying, but then played his songs and immediately felt better. I have never felt so genuinely comforted by an album and it’s just..nice to feel I guess. It’s just helped me a lot and Your City Gave Me Asthma is definitely one of my favorite albums. I highly suggest listening to the whole album if you haven’t, and listening to his other songs. I also hope that Wilbur’s doing better after this because he’s just an amazing person! Also, sorry if this is all over the place, I was just rambling on what was on my mind when I saw this.

Yay! :D and if anyone actually sees this just know you are incredible and I hope your day has been amazing because you deserve good things in life because your great!

Remember you are an amazing person and everybody makes mistakes you wouldn't be where you are without them, you wouldn't have met your best friend you may not have even met your significant other.

    its like 1:25 am rn, i need to be asleep, but whatever
    the fucking emotion he put into these songs. it gets me everytime, i dont know why- im teary eyed right now.
    wilbur is the reason i actually got through some tough things, the reason i'm here right now, the reason i picked up a guitar and forced my fingers onto that fretboard so much that they ached. these songs being a reflection and sort of a representation of those dark times he was in draws me in and anchors me, and as much as these songs are dark they honestly give me life in the way i can relate to them and play along and put all that emotion into these songs along with wilbur.
    i'm not sure if what i'm saying is even coherent right now but my main point is this guy has helped and honestly guided me so, so much for the past year and a half. im so fucking happy and proud that hes now out of those bitter times and doing things like traveling the world to do shows with his band. really shows you how much things can change for the better
    im sure he wont ever see this but thank you wilbur. thank you for being a sort of guiding light to so many people including me

    Listening to this music at 2 in the morning and reading all these comments is really something, I’m sat here writing this almost crying, seeing someone go through what they did, pouring their emotion out their such an artistic means, seeing how they’ve gotten better, seeing how they’ve improved artistically, it’s an odd feeling, this sense of pride, this sense of sadness, even if you’ve never known them personally, it’s definitely something.
    I remember when Wilbur did that arg thing with jacksucksatlife, I was never really into it, but I’ve caught up on it, then in 2020 him joining the DSMP, and him making these albums and the E-girl trilogy (quadology now?) and with him having Lovejoy, it’s amazing, he’s truly an inspiration, things can get better and thing will get better, he’s not only helped himself but also helped others, he’s fostered a community bigger than himself, he’s made something bigger than himself, I aspire to be like that one day,
    And if anyone has even bothered to read all this, all of my ranting, thank you, I hope you have a wonderful day, and I hope everything is going good for you, and if it isn’t, please, reach out and ask for help,

    In a few weeks, YCGMA will be one year old (officially, ik the songs are much older). Tommy’s vlog showed Wilbur sitting on the same bridge as the one in this video, and now Wilbur is in a band with his friends working on their first album. Wilbur has said he hates these songs now, because he thinks he can write better songs now and because he was in a bad mental state when he wrote them. I truly hope that one day me, and anyone else who finds comfort in these song will feel the same way about them as Wilbur now does. I hope they will become just memory of a bad time and that when I think back on them, I will be in a much better place mentally.

    i can't wait to have a moment like wilbur, where he walks across the bridge he crossed years ago. instead of being illuminated by dark city lights, this time he's bathed in sunlight.
    i can't wait to create my own private contrasts between moments between the past and the future.
    i can't wait to look back at these times and be able to say "i made it".
