Puddles Pity Party - WHAT WAS I MADE FOR? (Billie Eilish Cover)

[@jamesswanson4303]

There is not a single genre of music or song in general that Puddles can’t make better than the original. The dude is a genius.

[@MrNokkes]

💯

[@ffjsb]

I don't necessarily think they're better, just redefined, and put in a different light.

[@needsmoreclipping]

I disagree on some, but agree 100% on others. This, Everybody Hurts, and Losing My Religion are amongst the latter. Also agree the man is a genius.

[@n.lite.n111]

😂 yeah cuz we want a guy who makes every song sound exactly the same .. one clown genre with subpar vocals. Didn't Leo Moraccholi already do that?

[@n.lite.n111]

I dont think any of you know what genius means

[@jrrarglblarg9241]

What I love about Puddles is that the comedic outro does no damage to the emotional content of his performance. It emphasizes it.

[@jooseph]

Right, actually this guy offers a deep perspective of the lyrics of the song.

[@Jaminsongunner]

Yeah I agree It reminds you he’s a clown. He’s a preformer.

[@jrrarglblarg9241]

[@Taobyby]

In a way, the ending is a nod/citation to the ending of the original music video which also gets a comedic relief, when Billie runs back to the table and picks up something she forgot. The whole video feels(to me) like a citation of the original, she plays with puppet clothesm, Puddles eats cake both seem to be lonely and waiting for something. The biggest difference, besides the obvious difference in scenes, is the lip sync in Puddles video.

[@lauraansara5066]

U never should have lost that tv talent show....I love your voice

[@CheaddakerT.Snodgrass]

Yeah he's an amazing singer but you can't win something like that with this level of costume on. I bet he's doing just fine. I just looked and I see he doing a tour in two countries and 13 shows, or something like that. Great cover singer; I'm not sure what he has that's original; he probably does, I'm just not that familiar. I've listened to most of his stuff so many times at work while I'm doing mundane tasks by myself.

[@Kay_The_Coffee_Weirdo]

He won. 😉

[@fulstaak]

He won just by being there. We still remember him, don't we? Big W.

This guy has been around a long time, makes a decent livivng, the exposure from the show was awesome.

[@SapphicMermaidVika]

I sobbed watching this. This was me last year, literally. Alone, in a car, trying to eat a meal which was really just a frozen pie I bought from the store, six hundred miles from my wife, having massive relationship problems, and completely broken. The ending? That somehow makes the whole thing even more sad. Made me remember how I sat there, last year, alone in the car, sobbing that life was just a cruel joke. Thank you Puddles. You help me heal. I love you.

[@pretzleg]

Sobbed is the perfect word

[@ericthompson3982]

So relatable. Sorry you had to go through that, and I genuinely hope you're in a better place now. Peace, friend.

[@michaelarrowood4315]

Hang on. It does get better.

[@n.lite.n111]

😂 yeah cuz this is crying material? Maybe seek therapy for your out of whack emotions.

[@ericthompson3982]

@n.lite.n111 Dude, anything can be crying material if it twangs the right nerve. Apparently it did with this person, and they opened up about it. I think that deserves our respect. Maybe professional therapy would be helpful, if they think they're in the place for it to be, but the ability to be open about one's pain is intrinsically therapeutic. No need to be mean.

[@gluttonousmachina2961]

I was thinking "He could at least show the poor Schmuck with the hose" ... And he did it. Thats why Puddles is wearing the crown. Glorious.

[@MYKroe]

Billie Ellish and Finneas wrote one of the most consequential songs with "What was I Made For?" I think we alll ask ourselves that question at times. Of course the song was written for the Barbie movie, but for we fans of Puddles, we know it was also written for him and Puddles of course delivered the song beautifully. Thank you Puddles.

[@raidonbay]

I would like to add an Adjective: quintessential This form of the definition is what I was thinking of... "Quintessential means representing the central nature of something"

[@n.lite.n111]

I think it's funny people like you still believe any of these musicians actually write their own material when all they do is slap their names on a ghostwriters song.

[@n.lite.n111]

How was it written for him if it was written for Billie Eilish? That's like saying Prince wrote Purple Rain but it was also written for the drunk guy at the karaoke bar too.

[@MYKroe]

@@n.lite.n111 Possibly, but one would need evidence of that. Do you have a name or names of someone who has claimed to have written "What was I Made For?" If so, I will consider myself educated based on evidence.
