Best part about being able to hear person giving directions to the production crew is that you can hear when they are trying to hold back a laugh and stuff, like when Will spits out his water and you can hear them trying to get the camera people to switch to a different camera's angle, and they're frantically trying to say "2" without laughing

Just learnt of Will Wood from a friend and wondered what kind of person he is. This is my first video ive ever seen of him and only a few seconds in,...💀😆✨ This is gonna be quite an exciting ride

[@cicadadays420]

If you want context I’ll give you a very small amount When he was a teenager, he wanted to become an eccentric, avant-garde artist and make the most chaotic, psychedelic music by screaming at a piano and writing complicated lyrics so that people would think he’s weird and interesting. In high school he basically took a lot of hallucinogens and other substances that didn’t even have names yet. And at some point he had an almost fatal experience with them and wrecked his vision, which caused him to lose several years (hence the song about not remembering 2012.) In about 2017/18 he finally got to the recovery stage and starting taking meds for what he found out was Bipolar Disorder. There are very little interviews where he is presented as his recovered self. Will wood’s upcoming album, ‘In case I make it,’ was written after his recovery, and he wanted to get it out there so people could see his real, authentic self, and not the crazy mentally ill clown you saw in this video, in case he died. (‘In case I die’ was what it was originally called, because he thought he was going to die at 27, based on urban legend.) But he didn’t die. So it’s In Case I Make It. You didn’t ask for this, but I hope it explained some things. WW is a really cool guy, and has an amazing album coming out.
