at the airport terminal 

Can't wait for the Genius video on this one.

Bill's Mom: "You could have just texted me that your flight got delayed."

Can't tell if this song is a deep metaphor for passing into the afterlife and struggling to say goodbye, or just a song Bill wrote to pass time waiting for his flight.

"I'm eating porridge but I heated it for the wrong amount of time." -Bill Wurtz Jan 16 2019

If Bill didn't edit this in an airport I will feel so betrayed

_"SHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZSHWZ"_ *Lyrical god.*

Feeling fine in an unusual way is how my friend with depression describes being on anti-depressants

I think the interpretation of 'And I think I'm dying, but I'm just being born.' is that Bill hates the takeoff, but once it's in the air the flight is amazing. Perhaps this is a reflection of his first flight, and it was scary at first, but he came out of it as a new person. In general, I feel like his music contains messages that deal with cooperation and learning from other people.

The line I relate to on a spiritual level: *shrwwwwhrshwwwwwwwshsrwwwwshrwshrwwwwshrwwhsrwshrwwwwshrwwwwshsrwhsrwswwwrshwtshtwhsrwhsrrwwwwwwshrwww*

You know something's wrong when this video plays mid-flight.

The airport terminal is a metaphor for how strange life can be. There, all people from all cultures be there, creating an unusual circumstance, giving everyone there an unusual day. The entire song is talking about life, compressed in the metaphor of an airport terminal.

The return of the theme on the intro at 1:45 feels strangely emotional from a musical perspective for me

Next time I'm at airport I will be listening to this

this sounds like a kindergarten song for people who aren’t in kindergarten and I’m feeling unusual about it

Bills videos are basicly a combination of poetry, animation, jokes and songs, all combined with actual flawless execution.

1:02 is unironically so good and I want a full song with just that vibe

Music teachers in 100 years be like: "This song is a metaphor for life and the planes arriving and going are people being born and dying, this song describes the weird feeling and journey of being alive through 'the airport terminal' "

My favourite part was the bit that went zshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshw

I like how airport terminals are practically the same everywhere. Tbh this song is surprisingly accurate

"I think im dying but im just being born" Deep.

Petition for this song to play in every airport terminal.

When he said “shwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwz” I felt that.

I will make a very detailed reviews of Bill Wurtz songs because I have nothing better to do. This song is about trying to let go of your past but being stuck in our unpleasent memories that are constantly leaving and coming back and torturing us. Terminal floor is the place that we are stuck in. Planes represent unusual or unpleasant memories that we try to escape from. Basically, we are stuck in the terminal, which can be considered as an incurable disease that makes us miserable in an unusual way that makes us believe we are fine but we actually suffer. Last but not least, porridge that was heated for a wrong amount of time represents depression and unwillingness to participate in the real life actions, thus being stuck rolling in the terminal floor.

Guys I don't think you understand how hard it is to even concieve such a complex chord progression, this song just sounds like it was made by a guy who spent at least 8 years in music school. And so that's why a lot of people keep saying that it sounds like Bill Wurtz is creating his own genre, because his music is as accesible as pop (with refrains and all that stuff ) but also as musically complex as classical.

Computer:So bill which effects you wanna use? Bill:yes

"At the airport terminal" 2020: Not Anymore

I love the use of the perfect cadence with perfect voice leading at 1:46 to symbolise the lyrics "Then I'll imagine my way back home".

it starts off nursery-rhymey, then it gets more wurtzesque

I’m convinced bill brought a pc to edit this at an airport

I feel like someone just took my entire life of weird obsession with the liminal spaceness of airports and packaged it beautifully in a song

The “cigarettes sold out” at 2:23 is one of my favourite touches in any of bill’s videos

"I feel like dying but I am just being born." this shit suddenly go DEEP

I think bill is having a mental breakdown after his plane getting delayed

I can already tell today is going to be a good day! 😇

can't get nearly enough of 2:16

is this some kind of death or afterlife reference? "the sky is so high and the ground is so low" like heaven and hell, "i think i'm dying but i'm just being born", "it's time to let go", "one day soon we'll all be together, until then the terminal carries me through" like a purgatory?

When the government shuts down but you wanna travel

This makes me feel alive.

I always come back to this song. I work at an airport and this tune gets stuck in my head all the time when the planes are coming and going. XD

Bro when the screen said 't' I felt it. Such a powerful letter. It brought tears to my eyes.

the most hitting lyric was “scwzsgcwzwchwzhwchwzhcwhzzz” i felt that so hard

this sounds like a broken version of a child's nursery rime

I've never done Acid and therefore _shouldn't_ know what it feels like, yet I feel high after watching this.

“I’m on the next flight” I felt that

Music teachers today: Study Beethoven and Bach Music teachers 2100: Study this masterpiece

This is a plane ol’ bop, Bill.

This is exactly 2am flights feel like

No joke, it was actually 10:24 when he said that.

I feel like Billy just had a bad experience at the airport.

_"This is the last plane of the video, I promise"_ _"Except for these ones"_ *Top 10 Biggest Anime Plot Twists*

I like to think of the terminal as the highschool or school in general. The Planes would therefore represent Pupils and especially students in puberty. I don't feel like excruciatingly ex*plane*ing the whole text, just give it another listen with this in mind ~ And don't forget that art lies in the eye of the boholder! I am just having a bit fun with interpreting Bill's videos :3

i love this a lot bc it feels like a child's thoughts turned into song and it brings me back to the good ol' days

My theory is that Bill Wurtz is an AI discovering how to animate and sing.

Someone: so what do you like to do in your free time Me: it’s complicated

This feels almost like a metaphor, not for death as another person said, but for growing up. Getting past highschool and going into job/college. The airport terminal being that transition period of your life that everyone goes through. Getting through highschool almost feels like your dying/drowning (especially if you're grinding for getting good colleges) but really you're being born, entering the main section of your life be it college or a job. "imagining where the planes are going" is where everyone else you know is going. The "night" definitely has something to do with this too but I'll figure it out later. Although I do agree that "one day soon we'll all be together" does work for an interpretation of this as just a whole life in general.

This song: *exists* Corona virus: "I'm about to erase this song's whole purpose"

I just imagine him writing this on the plane, whilst the dude sitting next to him is screaming, punching and having a complete meltdown.

If u blink you miss 30 minutes of editing

im happy that this song is nostalgic to me.

I first came here for the history of the world, but I keep coming back for Airport Terminal!

I've just realised these are basically baby videos for adults Edit: I don't mean to undermine what he does it takes some kind of talent and genius to make this

The struggles of man represented by Bill Wurtz's "And I'm eating porridge but I've heated it for the wrong amount of time"

I listened to this after six months of being totally homeless after my family kicked me out and disowned me. They acted like me moving across the country was a huge insult, and that I'll never accept their love. I listened to this at the airport. The line "as i'm saying goodbye to the world I know" as I see the little Long Island i live on disappear in the distance fucking smashed me. "when i'm there i'll imagine where i came from then i'll imagine my way back home" I still have dreams about the place I spent my whole life. It's weird being in California. Topographically it's all different. The people are different. The places are different. But I'm learning new shit. Not like I'll be here forever. We didn't go on vacations when I was younger, so the island was all I knew. Good to get a broader perspective. Sometimes I wake up and think I'm still there.

this is actually not just about the airport terminal its about life itself

I love how the A section sounds like a theme to a classic nursery rhyme such as itsy bitsy spider or I’m a little teapot and then the B section etc goes back to the iconic “Bill Wurtz” style

I very much appreciate the transcription of that short synth solo bit towards the end

The Solo on this is just so tasteful. I can’t get over it. Slick bill. Slick.

This is possibly the closest bill wurtz has ever make a music which lyrics are still consistent with the main topic/the title I mean the other songs are great, but this one's lyric stays with the theme

Only he can make a airport terminal into the most beautiful existential crisis

This airport terminal sounds uncomfortably similar to purgatory

I listened to this during my 5 hour layover in Vancouver because our original flight got cancelled, at least I got an excuse to explore YVR's domestic terminal and now know my way around it

This is an epic kindergarten + high school graduation song, in kindergarten when you graduate you'd "think youre dying (getting old) but you're just being born) and in high school you'd usually go to the airport terminal for college into another world.

The official international airport theme song.

That plane sound effect is pretty realistic.

The Legend himself has uploaded a new video, and as per tradition I shall binge every one of his videos. This time around I'm starting right here.

I love how this reflects when you are leaving home and going to an unknown country. The anxiety increases and you just think too much about what could go wrong but also part of you starts to feel positive at some point because all is new and you're secretly excited about the new experiences that are about to come. So to anyone who is leaving their family/friends for work, studies or else: remember you are brave and listen to this song :)

Why is no one talking about “and I'm eating porridge but I've heated it for the wrong amount of time?“

finally, a bill wurtz video where the meaning is plane

My favorite part is when he talks about overheating porridge.

Flying to Florida tomorrow and hoping to play this full blast there😀

Everything he does feels so meticulously assembled from both a musical and visual standpoint. And yet it always manages to feel wildly creative and spontaneous. How?

I must say, the sound of bill imitating an airplane is something I didn't know I needed but am now very glad to have knowledge of

2:40 the harmoniesssss ugh 😍😍

For anyone wondering bill himself said this song is simply an ode to air travel

Bucket list. 1. listen this shit while high at an airport terminal 2. be happy

finally, a bill wurtz video where the meaning is plane.

highly suggest this song for layovers, straight up an out of body experience.

This feels like a masterpiece a threat a cry for help and a message from god all at the same time

We need someone to make a Bill Wurtz theory analogous to The Pixar Theory

this song has 3 meanings for me: 1. Saying goodbye to this world (dying), and being unable to accept it (small detail but for example the visuals almost at the end of the video next to the "no smoking" sign said: "cigarettes sold out") 2. Having an online relationship or just some sort of online friendship, pretty self explanatory 3. Being afraid of starting something new: "I think i'm dying but I'm just being born"

Singers: Makes songs About Love, and other Stuff Bill: haha airport go shwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwzshwz

0:22 As someone who has gone to an airport before, I can confirm that this is the sound you make when you roll across the terminal floor

other song artists: make songs about love and stuff bill: makes inspirational song about airport terminals

probably the most underrated bill wurtz song

the visuals are so trippy and artistic which is why i'm so fascinated by them

My brain: how much dopamine intake do you want? Me: yes

"But I'm lying down on the terminal floor" i felt that

This song feels like finally leaving home, being ecstatic. Finally escaping your past. You're happy, excited, a little nervous. But you realize things are strange. You're far from home. Far from familiarity. Everything should be alright, but it isn't. Your excitement masks your anxiety. It's all wrong, you don't know anything here. Maybe one day you'll be somewhere familiar again. But for now, you fly out further into the colorful yet melancholic sky.

I feel like the airport terminal represents the transitioning from adolescents towards being an adult.

Legend has it the planes are still *sHwzSHwZsHwZsHwZshWzing* to this day.
