this (honestly mid in retrospect) album got me through the worst time in my life when i was 15. i listened to it every night for months, to the point where it’s still my top album on lastfm and i still know every word. i was so deeply connected to it in so many ways. sucks that the entire memory of this album that meant so so much to me is just fucking tainted now, totally ruined
the news of Wilbur being abusive are disappointing and sad, but I will never be able to stop loving this album thank you very much for giving it to us, Wilbur, from the bottom of my heart
He has so many mental issues it hurts be knowing someone can be so fucked up. He’s so fucking beautiful but made such a terrible choice. I don’t support what he did but how can I let go of someone that helped me through so much shit.
get over urselves he was some random boy on the internet not ur close and personal best buddy, u should all know better than to idolize and expect certain things from a stranger you don't even know.
Yeah but when you have no one to idolize in your real life because they don't care about you, you gotta go the toxic route and create a para social relationship
@@Hayych. thats a fucking excuse and it leads to massive disappointments like this where it turns out a creator came out as a pedophile/abuser. youre disappointed and sad in the end anyway so its better to try your best to form actual healthy connections and not put faith into people you dont know.
@@DaxtricCorners you're not wrong. it just sucks. A lot of us learned about him when we were still young teens, and even more during quarantine specifically. Quarantine, when we were isolated to a point of almost no community outside the internet. And Wilbur was a streamer. Streamers, who could directly interact, flesh themselves out, put on customized and personalized shows, that are meant to hold viewer interactability and relationships, to an utmost. The dream smp specifically, was a comfort zone for so many of us already socially lacking kids, and Wilbur as far as we could tell, never really gave us any reason to distrust him. You're not wrong at all, we should try our best to distance ourselves from online personalities, that literally make their livings off being likeable. But this isn't just something you live and learn from - it absolutely is the right course to do so, but it's still going to damn sting. Because we did put our trust in him, when we were kids. And learning that someone who built up your trust for years, actually just sucks. Is kind of the worst.
@@SubVevo I'm saying this from the perspective of someone who'd be depressed or in an abusive household themselves. Telling them to go outside and touch grass in this case is the same thing as telling a depressed person to just stop being sad my guy...
you don't understand, he's been like this from the beginning, even when this video was released. he's changing now. Or, you can forget who he is and just enjoy his content like you used to, if it makes you feel better.
@@gabe2448 read his response, literally says:The allegation of abuse, particularly in the form of biting, deeply shocked me. Throughout our relationship, I understood from our numerous conversations and text message exchanges on the subject, that this behaviour was consensual, playful and reciprocally enjoyed. I truly believe those personal message exchanges reflect mutual affection and understanding.
man just why? ive been watching Wilbur for 4 years, he saved me made me feel comfort and i relied on him and his music why did he have to throw it all away, he ruined Shelbys life and broke our hearts, i cant breathe. f#ck you Wilbur.
Nothing is confermed we may never see the full story however just remember he caould have done worse but he didnt and hey even his mother saif that the biting was affectionet. im not defending or supporting the alleged abuse but i will not call him an abuser untill there is outstanding evidence or he admits that shit himself
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.
first time, huh? dont worry, it gets easier from here. most of my favorite artists are losers, creeps or abusers, and i dont support what they did, but i still like their music regardless
Wilbur,I’m a huge fan of your music and content,and I want to thank you,as I owe you a debt for literally saving my life. This last year my mental health got really health and I was hurting myself and considering just ending my life so no one else had to see my ugly face everyday,one night I was the closest I’ve ever been to going through with it and your music came on,it was relatable to me and I fell asleep to it…your music saved my life that night,if I could ever make it up to you in person I would. I wanted to go to your Concert in my city last year but the tickets sold out before I could get one,so I’ll leave you with this Wilbur,Thank you so much for helping me realize that there were better answers to my problems than what I almost went with,and thank you for showing me that no matter what things can get better if you keep trying,in a way I love you for that,I will be forever indebted to you.
i have a theory that it was originally eggnog gave me cancer bc hes said "eg-" in almost every live playing of the song (he probably wont have an audience to play the song live to anymore tho)
god no matter how much i grow as a person, especially out of my 2020 phases, i still will always find myself back here once a year. something about his song writing is so gut wrenching but i can't even place my finger on it. its so crazy that when i first heard this we were peak lockdown. i had a numerous amt of insecurities and although a lot of those insecurities are healed years later, i am still the same person and this video still feels like home.
reading so many comments comparing the time in that video vs how he came back years later (so happy...) is gonna make me cry. I didn't believe that a stranger I met 2 years ago could touch me so deeply just by being so full of himself, both in the dark sides and happier moments, the latter is what makes me most proud of him, he's really very strong and deserve so much, I admire him too much...
5 years old this year, this album will always comfort being sad, this makes me miss the feeling of being so depressive i know that’s a sht thing to say but i really mean it, im super duper glad that wilbur is better now, he’s accomplished so much even with his mental health
I dont like Wilbur much anymore (nothing wrong with him just dont enjoy watching him or his fanbase) but your city gave me asthma as a whole makes me tear up anytime i hear anything from it, literally so good
Looking back at this, knowing he’s doing so much better now, honestly makes me so proud. He’s come so far with his music career and with Lovejoy. I couldn’t possibly be happier for him. 💞
I've just gone through a sort of breakup of a situationship. This is the 2nd time I've gotten my heart broken bu this girl. We went on a date and a week later said she valued our friendship too much. So I wrote her a letter telling her I cant be friends because I'm just gonna fall in love with her again. I'm gonna miss everything we had and this song just helps me feel so much better. I think this is just a great reminder that we all have and will go through this at one point. We all get through it and that's a part of life. Remember that. I'm gonna miss you Mari.
