I should have made a song about fidget spinners

[@billylapworth]

I feel you deliberately didn't make a song about fidget spinners so you could make this instead

[@StevenFramed]

I feel... hmm he made this instead, so he could not deliberately make a song about fidget spinners. And I know my joke is just a simple inversion here, but... isn't that the -- the, point...?

[@StevenFramed]

I'm saying jokes are basically easy (when you're good at making them); and you made an easy observant joke here; and so did I. THAT'S all I was saying. It's ah... post-modern-modern humor yo... Ya Know..?

[@ιθκ-κ4ο]

@@StevenFramed are you okay

[@JakkaRM]

Hot Dad, I recently visited the universe in which you made a song about fidget spinners at the most opportune moment. It was a great success and you became a famous boy. Unfortunately, spiders were the size of dogs in that universe so I thought it best to leave. I'm considering visiting a universe soon where you ended up making a long version of "Weed the Bong". It is a moderate inconvenience to travel across universes, you see. Please save me the trouble and make my dreams come true in this universe. Love and Respect, A Dad of Lesser Attractiveness

Hot Dad is a lyrical genius.

[@cruisingondownmainstreet5709]

Why the heck have you not blown up- your songs are actually really funny but also genuinely nice to listen to and are super catchy and the visuals are always so goofy and captivating.... maybe it will be like Bill Wurtz and you'll hit the jackpot one day soon and get 3 million views within two days of uploading anything ❤

[@Saxandviolins]

the fact that this song hasn't blown up is proof of the premise

[@pippincovington1348]

"Ball bearings in my heart the blood would spin" Fucking brilliant

[@Peter]

holy shit this is amazing, you made a genuine song about parodies that functions as a parody but feels real

[@seymourglass26]

It's glorious instead of mocking, but it still scratches that humorous itch. In an age when it's so easy to be a snarky asshole, this is incredibly refreshing. It's like hearing Weird Al for the first time all over again. Just substitute synth pop for Al's polka and toss in a dash of Tim and Eric for good measure (mainly the chill vocals).

[@seymourglass26]

Subversion of expectations is important to all art. And Hot Dad knows way too much about pop music (especially 80s and electropop) for his own good. His hooks are incredible. You expect garbage, but get a tidal wave of beauty.

[@bgh179]

I don't want to say that Internet Dad is this generation's Weird Al, but damned if I can't stop my brain from making that comparison.

[@GeddyRC]

This is so perfect, Hot Dad you would have been world famous if this came out 35 years ago. Love how you just break out a Blue Oyster Cult-esque muddy guitar breakdown @ 2:07 and then jump right back it at 2:51. So so cool. Officially my new favorite song!

[@teddydashers]

This isn't a song about fidget spinners... It's a song about not having made a song about fidget spinners. Is it really a song that's not about fidget spinners? I don't really know. But I do know that I like this song.

[@teddydashers]

Also, I really like the visuals in this video, well, I mean, the video itself. As a music video. Not that I don't like other Hot Dad videos/songs.

[@HotDad]

you're good and i like that you're good and i enjoy that you're good!

[@teddydashers]

Why that comes as a surprise to you is because irony is usually employed by talentless people.

[@baileyhartford4293]

I think this might be one of my favorite songs, Peter did such a great job editing, the song subject is funny and the song is just all around great! awesome job

[@Neel-ff4mn]

Writing a song about how he should've wrote a song about fidget spinners, therefore actually writing a song about fidget spinners. META!

[@swahiliranger1022]

That transition at the 2:01 minute mark was legendary.

[@mateolitc8898]

Perfect timing.

[@TemmiePlays]

Wait...so this isn't a song about fidget spinners? Nor is it a video for fidget spinners? Am I still on KZbin? On internet? Earth? The Galaxy?

[@Sara-jh8jj]

genuinely listen to all these songs in the car or on a walk. I actually feel kind of self-conscious about it, because they're supposed to be ironic/parody songs, and yet the music is so good that I don't care.

[@HotDad]

you're really great and thank you for sharing this!!! it's funny, because i would argue i'm trying to exist somewhere _between_ serious music and ironic/parody songs (i don't even know if it can actually be done, i just "try to do it"), like exactly the thing you're describing. it's definitely a gray area, and i think it's an interesting thing to explore in music!!

[@Pathos312]

Funny story about this... my political mentor is best friends with the guy who "invented" the fidget spinner, he owns a restaurant down in Florida now. He used to be a big promoter in the 90s for the music scene too.

[@Di0nysys]

Your music is unironically so damn good.

[@HotDad]

thank you! you're terrific and nice!
