Music of Bill Wurtz: You Could Make a Religion Out of This

[Fiction]

Bill Wurtz is as mysterious as he is incredibly gifted. He's been making music on YouTube since YouTube started, but was never really known until a little thing called "The History of the Entire World I Guess".



But this is about the music. His music is surreal and somehow amazing.





What are your favorite Bill Wurtz songs? And why is this so appealing?

 

[shnurgleton]

ehhhh he's good but he's no hot dad

 

[RatskyWatsky]

I love Bill Wurtz! His songs never fail to make me smile.

Absurdist?

 

[TheBaldwin]

Out aide is a great song. Their really fun catchy tunes

 

[Mirage]

Can't forget this video if you're talking about Bill Wurtz. I feel like this is the first thing that started to get him more attention.

 

[grang]

This was the first song of his that I heard and I still absolutely LOVE IT, but none of his others have really done it for me unfortunately

 

[Atlagev]

Somehow, his music manages to me fell less anxiety and helps with my depression. I don't know exactly what's in the secret cocktail he uses, but his music has really, really helped me over the past year or so.

These 2 are probably my favorites, but all of his songs are pretty amazing:






YouTube doesn't deserve him. I hope he's not a secret Nazi or something.

 

[wideface]

Truly a genius.
No song will ever top La de da de da de da de day oh.

 

[ZealousD]

I don't know if I would ever just straight jam to this music all that often, but it seems perfect for something like a kids show. Give him a contract to write stuff for Sesame Street. That'd be perfect.

I guess he's what you'd get if TMBG had grown out of a smooth jazz scene instead of a new wave one

 

[shnurgleton]

guys I'm just gonna keep posting hot dad songs that are similar but much better than bill wurtz songs

 

[Crispy75]

Musically, it's really quite out-there jazz. All kinds of of crazy chord progressions and time signatures. He went to Berklee , a prestigious private college specialising in Jazz. The lyrics are surreal, and the videos are A E S T H E T I C as hell, but underneath all that it's really sophisticated.

I'm sorry but based on the eveidence here presented, Hot Dad doesn't hold a candle to it. Very simple.

This bangs so hard.

this is one I could totally see a religious cult forming around

 

[Wolfgunblood]

Meme pop has to be sophisticated musically otherwise the humor wouldn't be mildly amusing.

 

[Dennis8K]

I like this thread because it has about the same average number of replies that any of my threads get.

no lies detected

 

[Regiruler]

I've listened to a few. I honestly need more formula and patterns in my music.

I really wish he'd make another history or informative video, but it seems like he doesn't want to do them anymore.

 

[spyroflame0487]

the St Helens one is probably my absolute favorite of his videos.

 

[modoversus]

I have lost count of how many times I have seen his history of the world and Japan videos. Wish he could do shorter versions of about other topics in that same style.

Louis Cole is a cool dude and similar to Bill in person. Both styles can exist simultaneously and also be rocking.

I recently found him out from his "thanks for checking in" clip which was somewhat popular on vine.
