LYRICS
He told me that much and now he’s dead
Taught me to kill my indulgences
With a sharp blow to the temple
Pick up the phone call and do everything he says
I could take a plastic camera
We could make such a pretty picture
Oh so happy. Oh, oh so happy
I’m pretty cool once you get to know me
I feel at some point I broke my mind
I’m always searching the silent type
How do you all make it look so easy?
You open your hearts up so quickly it scares me
She’s an artist, paints across my chest
Goes to parties, act like hotel guests
Wake up Monday, now it’s over
Don’t you know no-one gets what they came here for?
I could paint her, wrapped around her
We could make such a pretty picture
Oh so happy. Oh, oh so happy
I’m pretty cool once you get to know me
But I’m just the same
I’ve got a boring name
Across the world from what you want and what you came here for
So I’ll wait here for you
Said, please just let me stay
Oh, just let me stay
I guess you know now what to expect
He lives your own life in retrospect
You know it bores me? These insecurities.
Breaks you down just to act as the architect
I could wait here, by the west pier
Watched the flotsam float, slowly disappear
Oh so happy, oh oh, so happy
If only you knew just how much better things could be
Another week of action
Another hypoglycaemic reaction
But I’m just the same
I’ve got a boring name
Across the world from what you want and what you came here for
So I’ll wait here for you
Said, please just let me stay
Oh, just let me stay
Oh, just let me…
I’m sorry it’s all so predictable
I’m sorry it’s all so predictable

This was an absolute pleasure to direct, and one of the projects I am most proud of. I look forward to working with the beautiful boys of LoveJoy for many more!
Yoo
Hello there mr nivison
hahaha, silly milk man
You guys did an awesome job this is amazing❤
Hellooo
So proud of Will Neff for sacrificing himself to create a great music video, he will be missed.

As a bassist this is now my favorite song that actually includes heavy bass line
same, listened to this once and immediately went to learn it
Yo if you don’t already know them check out the band royal blood and listen to
Typhoons
Little monster
And loose change
You’ll be in love, they’re better live
Check Under Control by Good Shoes, it's the original 😂
@@LuciusAugustyep this song is a rip of this
Also as a bassist, I must have missed the heavy bassline.
Played this song in the truck yesterday and was absolutely thrilled when my dad asked who the artist was and i got to tell him "lovejoy, they're a newer band" without giving any extra background context
I get you. everytime I play my music he looks at me all proud like "I raised you right, kid". and that makes me happy for some reason.
@@iwontbesilenced2321wholesome dad moments are one of the true joys in life
@@clairebourke8465yeah,you can say its a Lovejoy moment!😂😂😂
(Okay now start throwing tomatoes)
@@nsgn3102 it was a cheeky but good joke no need to be ashamed XD
@@iwontbesilenced2321 Omg same my dad is all into this type of heavy metal and rock, and then I showed him Lovejoy and he was like omg my child actually has a good music taste and I kept showing him music like Lovejoy and it was sooooo cool❤️🎸 love you Lovejoy
The only bad thing about this song is that it ends. This honestly has got to be my favorite song from the entire EP! You guys went above and beyond with the budget on this one
ur so real for that
:j
Yooo Ore!!
So real
This is pretty mid ngl
WOW>>> Ted, INCREDIBLE JOB. A pleasure to work on this with LOVEJOY and the entire cast and crew. The SCIENTIST is very proud to have been a part of it. Nice work everyone...!!!
THE Skip! You killed it my guy!
Skip you deserve a ton of credit for your role in the video. You were STELLAR as Professor Watts.
OMG SKIP ITS HIM OMG OMG ONG u did a great job YIPPEE!!
You did great! :D
You have a wonderful mustache
guys instead of taking the time to comment about the things wilbur has done in the comments, why not take the time to congratulate ted for directing such a good music video? or talking about how the drummer did a great job or otherwise. like just because wilbur did something terrible doesnt immediately make anything hes ever been a part of bad.
La gente se toma el tiempo de publicar en todos los videos de lovejoy, tienes razón, no se deben tomar su p*to tiempo de comentar lo que hizo el, si la banda ya lo sabe lo hacen al c*rajo, total no los van a leer, mejor solo feliciten a las personas que trabajaron duro en esto, pero ya no podemos ver a Wilbur igual
Listen to Megadeth...
Dare say Megadeth and quite different to this. They're class but also not really a substitute for Lovejoy @@heinoustentacles5719
Hate Wilbur Soot
Love everyone else who made this
It just sucks that there’s a double standard here :/
Seperate the artist from the art.
Wilbur messed up BIG TIME, but I still like this song. Yes, even his singing.
I would never expect this song to be in Fifa
OUR BOYS DID NOT JUST DROP THE COOLEST MUSIC VIDEO ON US LIKE THAT! I can’t wait to see them live 🤍
I genuinely just can not wait to say ‘I listened to Lovejoy before they became one of the most famous bands in the world.’
Never mind.
RIGHT?
IM JUST IMAGINING THEY GET BIGGER THAN THEY ARE NOW AND WE CAN JUST LOOK BACK AT THIS FIRE ART (no offence to will who literally got burnt alive) IN THE FUTURE
props to my cousin for recommending me this band two years ago. WHAT ITS BEEN TWO YEARS HOLY
Lmao yes❤
SAME!! THEY HAVE COME SO FAR AND I CANT WAIT TIL THE COMMUNITY STRETCHES EVEN FARTHER THAN THE MCYT FANBASE!
SAMEEEE ASDDGH

"I'm pretty cool when you get to know me"
don't say it don't say it don't say it don't say it don't say it-
Yes, dont say it because the comments on the music video of Soft boy will
"how do you all make it look so easy?
you open your hearts up so quickly it scares me"
this line is my absolute favourite line, it's exactly what i mean as a demiromantic person
I watched you before!
*laughs in aro*
I thought it said “you open up your eyes” I’m gonna die
what is demiromantic?
@@pepsi6825 it means i only experience romantic attraction to people im close to, so i dont ever just fall in love with someone i barely know
The song, the artistic direction, the shots Ted combined to establish the story and vibe- I AM SO OBSESSED! This is amazing! So proud of the gang and Ted for coming together with this!
Who's ted??
@@andriemiguelkrishnan653ted nivison directed the music video :)) he also has his own channel and he's part of a podcast (chuckle sandwich) where they did an episode with wilbur if you're interested in that
@@andriemiguelkrishnan653 hes a good friend of wilburs and an amazing youtuber :)
Not normally my type of music but after Ted’s lovely video I literally am just amazed by the creativity and I’ve been listening on repeat- Absolute legendary song and music video congrats to the whole squad who worked on it
Same! 🔥
Same here, I legit want to listen to the rest of their discography
@@aliyan247 Highly reconmend, as this type of music is sometimes my thing but not always I love how lovejoys music always has a great base and punch to it :)
songs mediocre tbh
@@CatherineAvila-ce3bw That is one of the takes of all time
I came here from Ted’s video about the directing process, and I’m really impressed with how this turned out!It was complex work and Ted looked stressed, but it feels and looks exactly how he described his vision, and I think the song has a lot of extra oomph because of this awesome music video. 10/10
THE BEST FC 24 SONG... NO DOUBTS
Good exposure and a great track. Lots of potential, but I guess now its all about coming up with enough material to get that album out there. I don't think they have a full LP yet?
Everything just fits so perfectly. The sound the acting, the costumes, the old public domain clips, the direction. MM it’s just so good
NON DMCA? you mean public domain? haha, how odd is it that we refer to it today as "non dmca" instead of "public domain" though
@@avokka ha whoops, fixed:)
yes
I never know what to expect with Lovejoy music videos and I’m always impressed and obsessed
this song will always be my favourite
honestly wilburs drama is not stopping me from loving this song
also the intro is just amazing
Even if any part of a band did something that sucks, that doesn't change the fact that the band has good music
@@gianisalive193TRUE IM SO GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE
It’s not “drama” as much as an actual crime
@@gianisalive193but Wilbur a now confirmed sexual predator is making money from the band. Until love joy kicks him off and demonetizes the music Wilbur can claim money off it’s not ethical to support as you are giving money to a abuser
Imagine being so young that you call this "drama"
Beginning to end this was pure 🔥.
For real
true
A blazing hot hit, one could say.
Amen
FR
Ted did an absolutely incredible job directing this whole thing and making it alive. The music coinciding with the video really gives it depth. I kind of feel like the guy hooked up to all the machines right now watching it lol. Amazing piece of beauty guys!! Everyone played such a vital part of making this band who they are today and I'm so proud of you all 😭
There’s a reason they call him Tednevision!
That guy is Will Neff!
I know right!? The whole thing is incredible, the song was always overwhelming my senses in the best way, and the music video demonstrates illustrates it beautifully.
@@yeyeyeyeyeyeyyeyey I thought it was, the whole time I was like ‘I know that guy from somewhere’
me too! I could have swore I saw him before
"Breaks you down just to act as the architect" is by far one of my favorite lyrics, ever. Keep going Lovejoy! You're amazing!!!
whos gonna tell him?
@@ChrstmasEnjoyer I'm well aware and give absolutely ZERO fucks.. "Hope this helps" "this aged well" "you support an abuser"🤓 "blah blah fucking blah" TOODLES ☮
unrelated to the small arguing, this is also my favorite line :>
Our little British Indie band isn't small anymore… aND NOW PEOPLE WILL RECOGNIZE IT AS IT DESERVES!!! 🤩💕
Was never small
Due to Wilbur’s popularity in 2021 I think the band kinda blew up when it started, but now it’s much more renowned
Cause they’re songs are so good
@@unwantedrainbow3851Yeah
it was never small to begin with
I have been listening to this song on repeat ever since it first came out and wondered what the music video would look like if it ever got filmed. This absolutely blew my mind. This is everything and more than what I could ever have imagined and I'm so proud of our boys.
SAMEEE
Blew his mind too
That guy's mind was blown too...
(sorry)
@@EchoTheGayOneI WHEEZED
I really dig how they’ve got this Arctic Monkeys energy but also with a slight shift, a little more discordance and angst vibes, they could sound like Cursive. Really digging it
yes
its kind of like a fucked up shitty cursive that looks like somebody wrote while in a hurry
YOU'RE SO RIGHT
Yea wilber says that lovejoy is inspired by artic monkeys
for me it sounds like a highway chase
"So I'll wait here for you, said please just let me stay" Holds so much emotion. It can be taken in so many different ways.
I’m glad you addressed this controversy, I was very confused when my dad was on fire when I played this in the car
This is legit a work of art, the visuals (especially the fct that it was all black and white) worked so well, props to ted's and everyone else's work on this MV we have entered a new era and its a beautiful one man
74 likes and no comments? I can fix that.
But seriously, it is a work of art, honestly the black and white really gave quite a cool effect :)
@@vivid_404 oh shit didnt even see all the likes lmao, yeah its such a good vibe for the song :)) the shots are insaneee
ALSO, why is no one talking about wills glasses???
YESS DUDE I 1000% AGREE
@@parthenos74 YES!!!
1940s vibe + Lovejoy + Weird but cool + Ted Nivison’s directing =
This absolute masterpiece
Ted did such a great job directing this.
Also, I love that every part of the band gets to shine in this song! I'm a drummer, and I feel like so many groups move the drums and bass kind of into the background. The fact they each get some really brilliant moments to shine makes me really happy. It's an amazing song.
Yes, and I also love the scene where Mark plays the drumms in One Day music video.
Can we talk about how, canonically, LoveJoys songs are powerful enough to light a human on fire.
LOVE IT!!!

im so proud of how far lovejoy has come in such a short span of time. It is truly amazing how much work they put into their music and how kind they are to their fans. I love you guys and im so greatful to have your music!
How does Wilbur go from SMP Live to fucking playing at one of the most known music festivals in the world? Truly, the best glow up.
To now biting people 💀
@@youcanttieyourshoes472I CANT LMFAOO- 💀💀😭😭
ikr! he's the best singer I've watched actually
edit: I'M NOT SUPER YOUNG! I'm a minor but it's not like I'm young young like where I'm like 5-9 I'm older than that.
@@Solangelo_shipperI’d stop supporting him if I were you. If you haven’t heard the news, he sexually assaulted a girl by biting her till she bled as she was crying
@@Solangelo_shipper you must be super young then cuz wilbur aint bad there are many better
I lokey miss 2023 already
I have no idea how you guys managed to make a song that feels so calm and collected yet crazy and emotional at the same time. Truly inspiring work.

@@justaloserrr yessir!
I used to play the drums a couple years ago , but the drum solos in this song are so mellifluous. I love this song so much.
Not exactly drum Solos, they are just fills
Added: “Mellifluous” to VOCABULARY
@@Emeraldog was about to comment the same thing lol
In most lovejoy songs the drums are just cracked, I always listen out to them and my mind is blown

Despite on what Wilbur has done, Lovejoy's music is pretty good
fr i don't want lovejoy to end...
@@Alex-xr1mpVery true. Their music hits hard
@@gianisalive193lovejoy won’t end because of what wilbur did, think about Chris brown, the Beatles, guns n roses
@@codiburns4384 True. I am just woried
@@codiburns4384though I hope Wilbur gets kicked out. He doesn’t support any sort of support financial or not as it’s been proven to reinforce bad behavior even if it’s not related.
i separate music from artist soooo still listening to this 😭🙏
I feel so guilty when I listen to it though 😢
@@Indiegirl_music-cu4ptdont. Theres not even any proof
@Indiegirl_music-cu4pt Yeah but even without what the artist did the song will still have the same meaning and rhythm

@@Skiph22 omg, not even kidding i wasnt expecting this. You are such a good actor and also thank you😅
@@exogames. Ted gave me the exact direction notes that you said you saw- look/analyze/realize/run…. Good to know I got it right. This shoot was great. I’ve done mv’s w Ed Sheeran, One Republic, Justin Beiber, Lil Yachty, and others but this was over the top better.
@@Skiph22 Ted really did a good work, and you nailed it. I felt the emotion and just had to make a comment about it
We shall forever be grateful of Will Neff's sacrifice in the creation of a masterpiece of a video. He will be missed.
Sorry for asking but what did he do
@@CattBlob caught on fire at the end of the song 🕊🕊🕊
@@CattBlob He's the guinea pig
@@CattBlob he died
@@BlairDoesStuff I'm sorry if this is a joke but the fire was cgi
I never knew this was Wilbur Soot until I saw Ted’s video. Never thought to look up who was in LoveJoy
if you suddenly can't listen to them after all the drama you need to get a hobby or just go outside, maybe talk to a friend. separate the art from the artist, because stuff doesn't suddenly become bad because the creator(s) is. this song slaps and it always will
Not saying what he did was right. But this song kinda slapped when it first came out but I'm totally with you
Honestly people need to get a grip he's a good artist
yes. i just listen to music i like.
"all the drama"? Domestic abuse is a crime
I personally can't if the artist is still alive
The money still goes to him
Yes, there are other band members, but when 3/4 are found to do awful things, I can't support them.
@@imjustroleplaying wait till you find out about virtually every company/service. your logic shouldnt be based on how many people included in the project are doing bad things. like oh its only one of the band members ok its fine then lol, you can dislike the music because of the artist i dont care but i dont think your reasoning makes much sense
we're so proud of you guys, this whole mv is sick and its genuinely so cool how ted directed this as well, a big shout out of thank you to all who worked on this behind the scenes !! so excited for what's to come of you guys in the future lovejoy.

Proud to chant
@@niapurdue230 In memory of techno? Always.

I love the imagery in this. The music overwhelming his mind and giving his nerves feelings of burning, and then combusting once his mind is completely full is genius. Ted Nivison did an amazing job here.
how, did this man make a song thats so beautiful and calming but so crazy and out of control at the exact same time??? you, wilbur, are a genius

Will Neff did an amazing job bursting into flames and dying a horrific death. Very realistic.
oh you didn't hear? yeah no ted nivison wasnt thrilled with will's acting so he just got a flame thrower and started recording. it's realistic beccause he was actually on fire!! v cool trivia
@@octag0nal makes sense. Ted's such a bad guy
My brain is still trying to comprehend the absolute insane talent happening in this video; the actors, the design, the directing, the band, the music. You can feel that everyone put their soul into this, and we truly thank you for it. I have never more in my life wanted to just be wrapped up in a music video. Not sure if that’s weird…. Sorry…
BUT SERIOUSLY THIS IS SO FUCKING COOL.
Great job guys, so happy for you all.
The following is an analysis of the video by jumbo from June 2 2023 "Here’s my thoughts on it. I’m in film school, and I was a Choir student for 12 years. This is all just incredible. Just figured I’d share my thoughts! Digging into the lyrics, the song is about a guy who wants to fall in love with a girl but can’t because he’s insecure that he’s too boring and predictable. Paradoxically, he wants to put himself out there and do great and exciting things - presumably to have something to talk about - but he’s too scared to do that too. He wants to be something, but he’s not saying anything at all literally and figuratively. Thus, the song’s title, Portrait of a Blank Slate, is an oxymoron representing the psyche of this hypothetical man. The music video is full of silent era components and surrealist imagery, which is a great way for director Ted Nivison to say he’s a film buff without saying he’s a film buff. Though it’s what he states in his BTS video, I drew much more from his vision than mere efforts to be “weird,” “old,” or “trippy.” I think the choice to splice public domain medical footage in with the rest of the music video expresses the hypothetical man’s acknowledgement that he is, on the most rudimentary level, exactly how everyone else exists. It’s fitting that footage that everyone has access to was used to convey that he’s got a body, he’s got a brain, and he feels he has nothing unique to do with it. I know that he’s telling himself this because of the edit that rapidly match cuts between the test subject and the scientist helming the experiment just before the title slides of various illnesses. Sometimes, match cuts are just done to create a smooth transition from one thing to another, but I firmly believe this is one of those cases suggesting the two subjects linked by the match cuts are one and the same. He is the test subject, and the scientists are the voices in his head, deconstructing him to the point of illness… mental illness. The lyrics sung at this exact point are “I guess you know now what to expect He lives your own life in retrospect You know it bores me? These insecurities Breaks you down just to act as the architect” Rewatching the music video again, I immediately paused it at this part and replayed it because it stood out to me as perfect synchronicity between soundtrack and cinematic language. This was certainly my favorite part, and this level of artistry totally stays maintained from start to finish. Lovejoy’s song slaps, Ted Nivison did a fine job directing the music video, and both parties accomplished so much in so little time. The project may tell a story about lacking individuality, but the project itself definitely earns its own"
@@austinrimel1150 This is awesome! Thanks a bunch. I love analysing the performing arts; and this just scratched an itch in my brain. So clever!
Least corny lovejoy enjoyer
the fact that this video was recorded in just under 16 hours is incredible ted did an amazing job as dirsctor and im sure he will direct many more
This is my second favorite Lovejoy song
The fact that this guy now has a song in EA FC 24 is mad.
Is it actually in it
@@HalloweenT0wnyes
Will Neff deserves so much praise for being a consistent colleague and friend to show up to things and kill it in everything he does.
And die for it too, as we can clearly see in the video
It’s really cool that he committed to the role.
I wasn’t sure if it was Will Neff, glad to see it is
it’s crazy to see how far lovejoy has come in terms of production value since the taunt mv! this is a masterpiece, kudos to ted and everyone else who helped create it ❤
Exactly like they’re definitely not stopping at this amazing level they’ve already gotten to! I’m sure we’re all excited to see them grow to even higher and better heights as they grow as a band
Crazy thing is yall will prob forget about the drama in a few months at best
Crazier thing is it is not just "drama" Wilbur has committed a damn crime.
@@AlexT1210still probably going to forget. This is something that has nothing to do with the audiences or their personal lives, its going to fade fast even though he should be punished
@@AlexT1210it isnt a crime. Plus unless she took pictures of the bite marks, and IF it was a crime, then he could never be convicted. Really though, hes been punished enough (or will be, lovejoy will prolly fall apart). He lost all his friends, career, and will find it very hard to make new friends or find a partner. Leave him be, we already basically know he has depression (judging by the state of his room and stuff).

Kind of like how Lovejoy has a bit of Arctic Monkeys in it.

most underrated song in history. WHAT A SONG NICE
This MV is fantastic! The concept behind it and the way is was executed is incredible. I adored the costumes and set design. I loved the way the editing matched up with the lyrics and the beat of the song. 10/10 props to the team behind it!
Could you please explain it? I didn't really get it
@@Koulstart
Mv = music video
They like the concept (idea) of the music video, and think the way they made the music video is incredible.
They like the costumes (what the characters in the music video are wearing) and set design (how the area the music video got recorded in)of the music video
They also liked how the lyrics (song text) matched up with the music video
They think its a 10/10 music video and give the team that made it props (look at it as if they give their respect to the team that made it)
@@Koulstart After reading over the lyrics, I think the guy being experimented on is gaining a new perspective to life due to the music and wants to break free from the repetitiveness of it all, but realizes he can’t and just gives up. Tbh I don’t fully understand the idea behind it, but this is what makes the most sense to me.
@@Koulstart I think their presenting their research on how music effects a part of the brain and it goes very badly just like everything else within wu&io industries
As someone who is incredibly picky when it comes to music, this is absolute fire. The lyrics are incredibly well thought out, and there isn't a dull moment in this song.

Hi lovejoy! I just wanted to let you know that your music has helped me so much. I was just scrolling through spotify until I found perfume and I just listened to it on a whim. I knew I'd found an inner happiness when the song ended. And it's brought me so much joy to continue listening to your music. I hope to one day go to one of your concerts to hear your wonderful music in person. Once again, I sincerely thank you for changing my life for the better.
Genuinely my favourite from the album, so proud of the lovejoy boys 💛💛💛
Can't wait to burst into flames at next week's Lovejoy concert :) As a fan who's been around since the release of Are You Alright, it's safe to say that I burst into tears when I heard Call Me What You Like on the radio last week. So proud of Wilbur and the rest of Lovejoy for how far they've come

WHY DID UA-cam TAKE 2 MONTHS TO SHOW ME THIS BRILLIANT SONG!!! THE BASS. THE DRUMS. THE GUITAR. THE SINGING. Im in my third year of high school guitar class and im gonna convince my bandmates to help me with this one
Lovejoy nunca decepciona.
verdade
obv que n, são os melhores
Mhm

nunca mesmo
It has been years since i listen to a song that just RADIATES early 2000's energy. This is amazing! The music is so melodic, the video is just so macabre in a good way and the actors really played their role. I could feel their panic in the end. Great job to everyone involved in the shooting of this MV!
its alot like a killers song imo
the first part of the bass riff is a direct copy of under control by good shoes, a guitar song from the 2000s
I was playing ea fc 24 then heard this song and I thought I heard a Brighton accent like wilbur’s then I found this saw his face then searched it up to confirm my suspicion, I am actually stunned
Love how ppl just HAVE TO come post on the music. If u dont want to hear it then dont listen?? Yall are special 😂
i feel like it's a rare skill or something nowadays to separate the music from the artist
@@KermGD its honestly funny because the same people commenting on his music are most likely the same ppl who were cornball stans like 3 years ago
This song goes SO HARD amazing job guys.❤ our little band isn't so little anymore I'm so proud🎉
OFCOURSE ITS A MASTERPIECE!!! Im so happy school is almost over summer is close and lovejoy is back 💗
omg hello fellow stocking pfp enjoyer
I was so shocked to hear this in FC 24, really nice surprise
Being a fan of both Wilbur Soot and FIFA I’ve never listened to this song before but now can’t wait to hear it while playing. Congrats on the feature, Will. You deserved it 👏
Edit: I’ve listened to it and I can tell you this song is gonna be a banger
Me too, the moment I heard Will’s voice I immediately recognized it was him and I was so happy Lovejoy’s song made it in EA FC 24.
@@joshintosh3228 Agreed. It really fits the FIFA soundtrack meta a lot.
THIS IS MY FAV SING FROM THE NEW ALBUM! So proud of Lovejoy for how far they've come!
I think we can all agree that that bass riff is absolutely monstrous!!
I didn't even know I was still capable of becoming actually obsessed with music anymore. Thank you Lovejoy.
Can’t believe this song is in the Soundtrack of EAFC 24
WAIT IT IS!!! OUR INDIE BAND IS IN EAFC!!!!
So glad Ted were able to direct this. It was such an amazing video. Great editing and concept of what the video's about and it even suits the song quite well. Really hope to see more spectacular music videos as amazing like this! 🔥
No way puppetflip
@@Zackynd No way zackynd
Such a banging song, hope to see this one rise as one of the more popular ones of the album
I absolutely love the "how do you all make it look so easy, you open your hearts up so quickly it scares me" Line so much. Like so much. Maybe its because I'm really naive, and I open up to anyone, and everyone if they ask me the right questions. Why? I don't know. I always open up, but in a humorous way. but yeah, i just love the line so much I had to made a whole comment on it
this song got me in a chokehold
this is one of the BEST songs ever i love all the songs u guys make it’s all amazing!! :)
yes
I don't know much about music but this is really cool, I went to Lovejoys concert in MI and it was freaking awesome, It's clear that Wilbur is really passionate about music and he is coming out with amazing results. I love every song I have heard and I'm as boring as people get, I really hope he doesn't stop making songs any time soon.
how could such a waste of space make a song this good
Every crazy/insane ppl are like us but difference they know how to use their potential well than us.
aint a waste of space then is it
@@instentproductions3180 exactly what I'm all about. What wilbur did is absolutely awful and disgusting, and he should be in prison for an amount of time, but he doesn't deserve to die, and he brang so much positivity with his songs, people tend to forget that so easily
@@CibuYT wait he died?
@@instentproductions3180no they're just saying he doesn't deserve death threats i guess
This kid’s music gives me the nostalgic feelings.
This was recommended to me from the song that’s called “Dupe - Balling” 🫡🫡🫡
