I think one of the reasons on why your views dropped is not because of the quality of your videos and is not by any means your fault, but because most of us who watched you back then have grown up. we now have less time for youtube due to work, more responsibility in general and less time for this, honestly.

@@basushruti11 i like to term the 2013 era of youtubers as the "ukelele era" i.e. much more light hearted and fun. Big youtubers from this era have either stopped making videos, or continuing to make videos with l only 1/100,000 people watching

I’m so glad I grew alongside the “Brit Crew” and not all these hype house tiktokers that are such terrible influences. Your content along with all the others and all the collabs in between really provided great entertainment for me when I was a teen. I loved watching this. I think your career in men’s fashion is perfect for you and I always love seeing more content from you and life updates! Your fans are here and we will stick by you!

[@imogen-jadeargyle-ross6819]

Just wanted to say that even when I started getting busier and not watching your videos, you and the ‘Brit Crew’ will always be a staple part of my growing up. Thanks for all the guidance and life lessons you all taught me. ❤️❤️

This video made me feel so nostalgic. Reminded me of how much I used to love watching "the British crew" and how much more confident your videos made me.

I feel like I’m 16 again watching this. It was a much needed trip down memory lane. 🥰 I’m almost 23 now and you all were such a big part of my teenage.

[@Abby.]

One of the most open question videos I’ve seen! I dipped my toe into the KZbin world about 8/9 years ago and met all of the “Brit crew” and big KZbinrs at a Halloween party. It’s always stuck in my head how genuinely lovely you were. No one else went out of your way to ensure that those of us who were new to it all felt seen and welcomed. You were so kind. I still remember that and have always thought highly of you!

[@toutdelafruit_]

“I don’t need someone. I want someone.” 👏🏼

[@ashleyvairo5655]

When you were talking about people who you no longer need in your life, that hit me so hard! I have always been the same way I have no desire to have the last word or any closure. Once it has gotten to that point, I just want to move on without them. I have never seen anyone who felt the same haha great video, Jim!

[@stellatron]

It's so nice to hear from an adult behaving like an adult, talking about what is real... My kids are now old enough to be interested in KZbin and some of the ridiculously over the top stuff creators are doing now makes me worried for what impression my kds are getting of other people's lives. Thanks Jim and we're happy you are happy! x

[@elliemay7029]

The ‘Brit crew’ was such a big part of my childhood and I will always be thankful for the laughs and comfort all those videos brought me 🤍

[@ppppiiiiaaaa191]

This makes me feel very nostalgic as well. I guess like a lot of others, I just grew out of KZbin over time and didn't consume it that much anymore after finishing school. Still you and the other British KZbinrs were such a big part of my teenage years! Lots of love xx

[@mkaylagomez1959]

Regarding the role model and young audience thing, I am absolutely glad that when I was a young teen I grew up watching you and Zoe, Joe, Alfie, Marcus, Tyler, Casper, Troye etc. and not some other KZbinrs that I watched in my later teens.

Thanks for being a good role model in so many ways in this online space!

[@cek2089]

Dear god this video makes me feel so old. I’ve been around since the beginning, I remember your being all awkward and barely featuring in your sisters/tanyas videos. Being excited by your own channel. Watching your wedding, your career. Growing apart because life moves on. Then this. A little reminder. A snippet of the past. Still authentically you. You feel familiar if that makes sense. Nice to be reminded of the good old days.

[@FacheChanteDeux]

Congrats on your engagement, Sarah seems like a sweetheart. Sadly I lost an older relative to Covid. The part that people don't discuss enough is the suffering. My poor cousin (more like an aunt because of her age) spent the last month of her life feeling like someone was sitting on her chest squeezing the life out of her. Tragically no one could visit and only two of her kids could attend the funeral. Everybody- Please wear a mask and keep your distance. Life is precious and fragile. We have to take care of one another.

[@RobinOm27]

Hey Capricorn! Go love that girl, Sarah... she should never have to feel that you don't or don't want to.. because you prefer more time in isolation. Totally understand your sentiments and how you love the oasis of solitude.. though I also know how someone in love with you can feel like they're with you but feel you are so distant from them. Very few can understand how Capricorns love to love.. it can be all consuming love.. and other times some feel its cold and distant. I'm sure you know the right balance..

Thats just plain rude to ask about his other relationships. 🤷‍♀️

You’re just such a down to earth guy and I love that. The Brit crew videos back in 2014 is what I watched when I was 16 and going through a really tough time with my own mental health, you guys got me through that time in my life. Of course I knew it wouldn’t last forever and you are right, people all move on and nothing can stay the same forever. That’s what makes those videos so so special❤️xx
