    the uncomfy feeling is totally intentional, don't worry. Wilbur has said that he genuinely does not think like the character he's portraying and that sometimes people reacting to his music don't realize that it is a character and it freaks him out kdnfkdk. he's currently most known for his contributions to the dream SMP, a minecraft server with a very deep lore. he was one of the main protagonists and later one of the main antagonists. he's a genuinely amazing actor, and that's why the e-girl trilogy and the character of 'simpbur' is so effective at what it does. you should definitely react to his more serious music, he came out with an album named 'your city gave me asthma' under just the name Wilbur. its really good.

      Imo he's more like an anti hero, a hero fallen from grace and now just wanting to end it all. He's flawed and he's definitely off the rails but we still rooted for him either for chaos, or because we sympathized with em. Idk I'm just rambling a tad. ALSO GHOSTBUR IS PRECIOUS

      The character he portrays *IS* meant to be relatable to a certain extent. It just portrays how you should *NOT* act in a similar situation. I wouldn't be surprised if Will made the basis for his character in the E-girl trilogy off of himself in his younger years.

    Wilbur is playing a character, he is actually a really cool person irl, and in some other stuff he has done he acts, and it is amazing. He is very good at playing unstable characters, and also characters who have experienced trauma. And in the series he plays in, his friend who works with him, has said A LOT OF HIS ACTING IS IMPROV. His album "Your City Gave Me Asthma" is very sad, and about him. He is doing alot better mentally now!

    I WAS JUST LISTENING TO HIS SONGS! You're a psychic, Mr. Bill
    Also, I will say that in "The Internet Has Ruined Me" I really liked how the mouths would go over his eye(s). It kinda showed how he wasn't actually seeing what was going on since half of his vision was covered. The mouth going over his eye could also mean that either he is convincing himself through words that he doesn't have a problem OR the egirl he is donating to and obsessing over is using her words to get people to keep the cycle going so she gets more money. I'm not sure if I'm onto anything but that's just what it reminded me of and I thought it was interesting 🤷‍♀️ It might also just be a stylistic thing and I'm looking too much into it but whatever :)

    i loved this deep dive on this trilogy of songs- you hit all the points perfectly (you always do though your so good at analysing)
    the office he filmed in was the only place he could film in (bc of everything rn) as it was where he streamed from (and he didn’t have permission either lmao)
    and you mentioned the “Bo Burnham” vibe of the music which is spot on! in a livestream he talked about he liked how Bo could put a serious meaning under a happy tune and fun lyrics. (and the “Jason Derulo” like Bo did in “repeat stuff”)
    but yeah this is a character created by Wilbur for his “non serious” music he releases- his other album is posted on things just under his first name (but if you do react to the album, which you should it’s amazing, it was written when he was in a much worse mental state than he is now. i don’t really get super emotional to music but the first song made me cry, so just a warning lmao)

    I don't know why everyone in the comments is telling you it is a character and asking you to check out the album when in the very beginning you clearly understood it is an album and said you were checking out the funny stuff first... BUT! Loved this video Bill!

Also the bo burnham comparison is definitely true. He covered "sad" in a livestream and I think the Jason Derulo thing was also inspired by him and that song.

    Never thought I'd see two of my worlds colliding but this was a nice surprise!! These songs were actually the first from a series of 4, the last song hasn't been released yet so don't worry about that! If you are in the mood for more of his serious songs check out his album Your City Gave Me Asthma, just a warning though it does touch on some sensitive topics. Wilbur wrote the album when he wasn't in a very good place but he has stated that he's gotten better since then. My favorite song from the album is Since I Saw Vienna, trust me it's super good, and the two most popular songs from it are Saline Solution and Jubilee Line so I'd recommend those. I'd also recommend Your Sister Was Right and La Jolla.

Also in my opinion it doesn't really fit into the trilogy, In Love With An E-Girl to me is the two of them dating, then The Internet Ruined Me is after they broke up and him being upset over that and then Your New Boyfriend is after the e-girl gets a new guy and he's upset over it. Soft Boy doesn't really fit into the story he's built. Just my opinion though

    Hearing your take on this was so fun! A lot of what your analysis was like stuff I'd picked up on but like two steps deeper, with how well crafted your thoughts are it's clear you're really passionate and knowledgeable about this stuff! Leading off what you said, all three of the major character driven things Wilbur's done are very good at presenting a bad person as not sympathetic, but more pitiful, so, like you said, it avoids making the viewer agree with the character but still makes them feel bad for them. I've also just realized that they also feature themes of obsession, a lust for power, and being too stuck in your ways to seek out the help you desperately need. Dude's definitely found a niche when it comes to storytelling. Looking forward to your thoughts if you do decide to cover Your City Gave Me Asthma (the serious album)!
