Characters Realising Things Are Actually Other Things

[@JazzEmu]

Thank you for all your exquisite inquisitivity. I have already answered most of them in my head. I will ensure to answer them out of my head as well.

[@mimihua2]

My question is why do you have such a nice voice?

[@JunaidKhan-gu8bw]

You are the BEST! hahaha!

[@konstantinbethscheidermffb2687]

It makes me sick - SICK - that this has less than 5000 views. It is an outrage and I demand we riot at the house of whoever is responsible for this.

that's not a trending page...

[@netriosilver]

It's B78, he misspoke it in the song so it would rhyme lol

[@phobiandarkmoon]

@@netriosilver No he said they were "this side of Rangdon B78", so presumably they're in the adjacent Rangdon B79

[@vladde]

- when and where did the idea of "jazz emu" (the name, the character, the style) come from? - how the h*ck do you produce those sweet sweet tunes? lyrically genius, but once i focused on the instruments i was taken to a whole new dimension. the bass lines are on point 👌 - what instruments do you play, and for how long? (instrument showcase) - how big is your vocal range? you talk with such a deep voice, and sing with such a high voice. - are you in charge of the production of the music videos? eg. who films in "dangerous andrew", who dances in "allergic", etc? - speaking of "allergic", how was that put together? seems like it would take a whole production team - have you practiced acting? you appear as two totally different people in "not as sexy", so much i've had arguments if there actually two actors in that video. (or are there actually are two actors and I've been deceived this entire time) - where do you get your glasses? specifically thinking about those in "... saftey advice" - if i give you (one million - 1) pounds, will you really marry me?

[@netriosilver]

Have you trained rigorously in music theory, or have you always just had sick baselines floating around in your head? Also, do you like Bill Wurtz?

[@netriosilver]

Do you actually need glasses, or do you just wear them to look cool? Do you think you'll ever create a funkier baseline than the one in "Allergic?" (Personally I think you could manage to do it).

[@MrLeeJimi]

Would your closest friends consider the Jazz Emu to be a mere character, played by a comedic genius, or the actual essence and core of that comedic genius himself?

[@omegaflugel9860]

This isn’t a window into another world... it’s a simulated video.

[@kerhaidet]

Brilliant!!💜

[@brianeddings9923]

Where do you get all of your outfits? Do you know the costume designers for various 80s shows?

[@anna-fleurfarnsworth104]

SECONDED

[@GreatestNintendoFan]

Where do you shop for your clothes? Your fashion sense really adds that extra layer to your persona in music videos. Just genuinely curious because it's like you came out of time capsule at times!

[@Joshh-uk1ww]

I respect having the Rodger Dean art as the background in the video.

[@reeflakin213]

This is one I’ve always wondered: would you rather be reincarnated as a disused chimney, or a neon sign for a bustling Newcastle pharmacy?

[@JessiTuck]

I *gasped* at the DEPTH.

[@tkazzaz3296]

I’d go with the neon sign, which is still fulfilling its intended purpose. What about you?

[@reeflakin213]

True. However, playing Devil's Chimney for a moment, a disused one would allow you to be the humble guardian of the city, watching over the day-to-day life of its residents. And you get to chill with the seagulls all day.

[@tkazzaz3296]

@@reeflakin213 hmmm, I forgot about the view...and I do love seagulls...so I can see the appeal in both 😬 Either way, I will still be myself at my core, loving everything around me. Good point, touché.

Hello! I was wondering: What (if any) is your least favorite part of making content? And is there anything in particular you do to help power through those parts? Really enjoy the content - thanks for doing a Q&A.

[@TheExp111]

Which radiator is your least favorite radiator and why? Also how many instruments do you have/can you play?

[@Evtheevil42]

“I have received-” Me: a call, but I’m already on a call!

[@heavypiano]

Do you do all the production/recording/editing yourself or do you have a team?

[@TheBadIdeaBox]

Would it still be possible to see older songs like "Elaine" or "Keep the Lights On" get full music videos? Love you Papa Emu!

[@JJNincorporated]

Q: Would you consider writing jingles / theme songs, and how much would you charge?

[@reeflakin213]

Question here. Miami is one of my favourites and it is firmly stuck in my head! What was your inspiration for the project? And how long did it take from idea to completion?

[@Kbbrianne]

I feel like I’ve spent my whole life looking for this channel ❤️❤️

[@jazzillion8356]

the outro on this is perfect. "I take the seed of an idea and i just... crush it right out"

[@werd_6078]

[@chewing782]

I stumbled upon your channel via the potato vid and I have to say your content is unique, funny, well-produced, and amazing!! you definitely deserve more views!! keep up the great work!

[@netriosilver]

How do you make such good vids so often?

[@MrEasyDoesIt78]

Would you please share a few of your musical influences? Always very interesting to me. Thank you!!

[@raputha1148]

Love your music! Where have you been all this time and why arent you more well known? It feels like i secretly know the greatest musical josh hutcherson on this planet.

[@aaronsmicrobes8992]

What would be your advice and suggestions for starter equipment for someone who is trying to see if they can write some funky electronic music themselves?

[@apostropheliam]

That's not a skit.... It's a Q&A!

[@NixNack]

[@Kodlaken]

Do you have any plans to make music videos based on songs you've already made? such as Elaine or Stop Playing Games. (I would personally love to see those)

[@anna-fleurfarnsworth104]

seconded! elaine would be so great, also keep the lights on!!

[@blork02]

For some reason, we believe with my gf that you have a background in graphic design (something about the humour). So, are we spot on or not ? Thanks for your outstanding work!

[@crepesrgud4041]

Can we expect something like a vinyl record of one of your albums someday? I'd be all over one honestly.

[@SplendidFellow]

Hi there! I was wondering how you deal with things like self doubt when they crop up during the artistique processe? If they crop up, that is. Your brain must be a miner because all of your ideas are solid gold. 👌

[@myselfandi670]

[@franklinsturges9844]

Greetings, good sir, and thank you for hosting this Q&A! Like a few others, I was introduced to your work through "A Mind-Bending Discovery," and I have enjoyed getting to know your other work! Many others have already asked some questions that I myself am curious about ("Who are your musical influences?", "How did you get started making music?", etc.), so I'll pose some embarrassingly specific questions rather than simply repeating those. I'm a big fan of the Magic City Hippies and some of your music reminds me of them quite a bit in the best possible way! Have you heard of them? Also, I feel super-stupid asking this, but if you had the chance, would you do a collaboration video with Daniel Thrasher? (I think it would be amazing if the two of you were able to join forces for a project!) Thank you again! Best of luck with your future projects and look forward to your answers! =)

[@Xoayer]

What tools/techniques do you use for coming up with the concepts for your music videos? I always find them so out-of-the box and impeccably intriguing. If yo ucould run the example of the creative process for Not As Sexy (my fave) or Tiny Snake, I would be stoked for life :D Love your art, very glad a friend showed me your channel!

[@trebizond790]

My question is - whilst receiving direction from the cosmos to create the hook in 'Vibe It Out', which unholy deity took command of you to pen something which has implanted itself into my cochlear nucleus in a manner similar to KHAN!'s Ceti Eel that got Chekov in all that bother. Also, you have a Lithuanian doppelganger in Berlin. I work with him. He is aware of you.

[@UrbanVanlife]

QUESTION . Loose fitting boxers , or the shinny huggable kind that make you feel as if your gliding in to your pants . Granted it’s not a musical kind but I find the process of creation can often be interrupted by uncomfortable underwear .
