I honestly think Jack is a virtuoso. Just the ways that he layers his music and varies his voice in rhythm with his artwork, there really isn’t anybody like him doing music and animations like he does. I truly can’t get enough of his work.❤

[@flyingkatya]

He's like everything I love about Mark Mothersbaugh and Danny Elfman

[@beanman9936]

While they are purely a musician and not a animator I would suggest Will Wood

[@prwa911]

There's something satisfying and delightful about the creepiness of the worlds he creates for his songs, it's weird but you just can't look away

[@tlh0121]

My daughter, who is less than 2 months shy of turning 8, is even obsessed with Opal. Her and I are constantly singing the little jingles, because they’re constantly stuck in our heads. We’ll also talk like Opal’s dream dad and grandpa by sticking our tongues out like they do when they speak lol. It’s the little things I cherish the most. ♥️

[@thatoneoutcast9110]

I am not going to be rude but honestly thats creepy.

[@thatoneoutcast9110]

But as long as you and your daughter are happy :D god bless

[@isle-unto-thyself]

Thats so cute. My little cousin likes jack stauber a lot too. It's something about him that really captures everyone no matter the age.

[@Normief]

Opal? Really? THAT short? About child neglect and abuse?

[@Dinobones]

I love Jack Staubers work because most of the time it’s free for people to interpret anyway they like. Also the animation bit was really cool.

[@SILLY_N3SS]

Who remembers 2 years ago in 'The disterbing media iceburg' when he couldn't understand the meaning of Jack's work, now he has a better understanding then most of Jack Stuabers fans. Also great video, i hope you continue to make work like this.❤

[@theorist]

Yooooo, I was going through some old comments and saw this. What a THROWBACK LOL. Yeah it is crazy how much I brushed off his work back then, definitely taught me that I should try to understand any "new thing" I see because I might be missing out on somethign great. Honestly have yall (the viewers) to thank for that, if I never saw all those comments about my take on jack's work, I would've never changed my mind

[@HoneyAnimates]

For a few years now, Jack has been my favorite solo artist/musician. Something about him and his work is so captivating, and there’s always something that someone will find enjoyable or relatable. Like you said, a lot of his work/songs has gotten me through hard times, whether it being goofy and making me happy, or being more mellow and sad, bringing me some comfort and relating to it. His work is something Ive been inspired by, and something no one else can really recreate. And i just love what he does

[@s1eepykinq]

he is, without a doubt in my mind, a master of his craft. he wants to convey something, a feeling or a thought or an experience, and he knows exactly how to do it by being able to disguise it in something, like a song, and no one would bat an eye. you hear the rhythm, the fun loud sound, and even if you don't understand the lyrics or exactly what they mean, it makes you feel something. Jack is trying to evoke a certain kind of feeling through his lyrics and sound and visuals and he knows exactly how to do it to make it as strange, sometimes haunting or uncanny, as possible. he knows how to grasp your attention and keep it without getting lost. he can tell a story in two minutes, convey a complex emotion with his strange lyrics that outwardly don't make much sense. when you come across him, browsing or through vitality of one of his songs, you'll never be able to get him out of your head. ive noticed that he's not on socials much either, which isn't exactly strange as he likely wants to stay a private person; but his anonymity and the way he navigates the internet so sparsely only seems to add the curiosity surrounding him. Jack Stauber is a strange man, but what he does is phenomenal, and how he does it is always executed perfectly. when you fall down his rabbit hole, you'll never quite make it out.

[@OverlordCreeper]

Been listening to jack for awhile and I think people who only know like one popular song of his don’t really understand the variety he has in his songs. There is something to gain for everyone from his music.

[@ravennovaaa]

I'm really glad you made this video, I always love when someone appreciates Jack and I feel as though you gave the proper thought and care to analyzing everything that makes his music masterful!

[@ChumiminvonMorris]

My favorite song from Jack is Coffee, it makes me think that it's what my dad hears whenever he sees alcohol, so it makes me feel ever so close to understanding him more

[@kathrineici9811]

They just read as sad and empty to me. Like depression and anxiety given form. Like things suck, and they won’t ever get better. Long term tomato loss can’t be reversed.

[@iamthewatermelon141]

Lemon demon reference spotted

[@cherryoh531]

i also love the juxtaposition of lyrics to upbeat music, like he is hiding how much trauma his words speak to. its deceiving. i really love that, you have to analyze him as a person to see beyond the lyrics as they are presented.

[@xaiene2958]

jack stauber has to honestly be one of my favourite celebrities. he seems genuinely down to earth and like he does these projects for enjoyment, not money

[@amazingspiderlad]

I was introduced to Jack's work by an online friend a few years ago when I was still pretty young and I just remember taking comfort in the fact that someone else had the same strange taste as me

[@Crazyrayz]

Its awesome to see that people are still making jack stauber videos even though he's gone right now. Thanks man

[@rhys_11]

Jack Stauber is one of my favourite artists, he is so creative, not just with songs, but with how he represents it and pulls in the attention. Very clever guy. Been looking forward to this video!

[@LaundromaticBarracuda]

Bro this is the best video I’ve seen all year. I love how you broke down databend. I’ve listened to Hilo probably every two weeks for a year and I’m glad you showed me something new about it, keep doing what you do!

[@buggie27]

I love him. His artstyle is so beautiful and comforting

[@TheChaosClan3]

I now have an even better explanation as to why I love Jack Stauber’s creations so much

Yeah, jacks videos are a bit creepy and disturbing but it has a reason to it. I love his songs

[@user-bq8lt7sg2k]

i discovered him almost 2 years ago but gosh i remember how disturbing,nostalgic,hilarious and awesome his art was all at the same time :,) im kinda out of my stauber phase rn but seeing his work getting recognition makes me wanna go back to that times where i wouldve spent my days with weirdcore and his stuff.

[@yamir1105]

Jack Stauber is someone that really makes me interested into these kinds of songs.

[@user-ye4zw6ui3t]

I honestly like this videos of when you do your theory for Jack Staubers

[@tonywords6713]

Great video man! You really nailed it on the value of MS Paint, Jack twists flaws into virtues and incorporates them aesthetically, and makes it look so effortless.. Basically the definition of style

[@m3cca.r904]

Musical genius for sure. So grateful for this video and to exist in the same timeline as jack stauber ❤

[@WitherVideos]

Very happy you made this, thanks!

[@Gworlypopp]

my fav songs from Jack stauber is Hamantha, Oh klahoma and Fighter:3

[@monkeytylee648]

something glitched and the entirety of opal played. thought it was a weird joke at first. still a bit bamboozled by how that happened but it’s just some normal stauber shenanigans ig

[@felxxxry]

his music comes just too comfortable my friends always say "the hell these are so stupid dont act like it" and there are people who dont like him for that but these traumatic songs even how dark they are they comfort me and make me calm down for a good while.. as a person with coffee addiction and ADHD i caan relate to too many songs of his, with family issues too, he's like my safe-zone the music that bangs my earbuds for the last 4 days is "astronaut" I LOVE IT SM TRY IT

[@super_homie]

I absolutely love his songs and also I feel like he should come back.

[@billiamdianthus4242]

I discovered Jacks work several years ago during the start of covid, and honestly it got me through that strange scary lonely time. Tho i only found out like a year ago he's actually from the same city I am...which honestly makes so much sense, theres alot of odd ones around here lol

[@Frostaltered]

Imagine what would happen if Wham City Comedy and Jack joined forces. The perfect combo of two horror comedy confusing artists

[@That.katt.thing.]

This first song (I’m in the middle of the video) hit me like a slap in the face, I haven’t listened to his music for a while but I love it. The sad thing is I went through that during middle school. I data bended. And it sucks 0/10 wouldn’t recommend because it really fucks with ur mental health. It also didn’t help that my old friend group was pretty judgmental and rude and treated me like a wall and used me for dumping problems onto.

[@gamenation1251]

Kinda surprised he didn’t even mention baby hotline. Super hype beat, super depressing lyrics. Absolute masterpiece

[@Joethelegalweaseloffical]

I remember I was intrigued by opal. I was really creeped out by the voices and animations so I got my best friend to watch with me. We went through the comments and learned about the story that was being told. I randomly say “we see you, opal.” When I feel like I don’t matter. Although opal can only imagine them saying “we see you” rather than “we love you” I find strength in “we see you” despite what everyone says.

[@SufjanDoroudi]

This video was everything I wanted, love u for it, thank you.

[@Starstruck_moon]

This is such a cool look on his music!!

[@ivyashfox4837]

I always try to find new stauber songs that I haven't heard before a lot Fighter is a mood lol and Ms Led, Windrag, and Vanilla are some of my calm favorites for some of my other favorites, Ballad of Hamantha, Cheeseburger family (it has a whole new meaning after watching the video essay on opal :0) John & Nancy, Dog nightmare and many others lol

[@kittttygirl5]

weirdcore meets dreamcore meets liminal space core, just a whole masterpiece of a human

[@ald7282]

"nothing in, prize out" punches me in the chest, i love databend.

[@sterthedude]

If anyone is wondering, the first song played is "Jack and Nancy"

[@SilenceImDead]

most of jack staubers songs are about his depression and his wifes death.

[@SilenceImDead]

and every song he has made has something to do with his life. baby hotline was about his wife, she called the suicide hotline and they said “give us one moment” and then she shot.. you know what I mean

[@itzchip._.]

0:52 My fav is weirdness

[@-kl2vx]

0:20 Jack is moon walk

[@marcusgomez6865]

Damn after that awesome video im definitely bricked up😅 thank you!

I’m still not over the stupid ass rumors of Baby Hotline being about some random girl/somehow a wife he never had who unslived themselves. Like how did that even start?
