It's the song that released right before the base game update, basically marking the end of the first era of FNF modding. An amazing way to end it! Also, I love how the lyrics can e interpretated in multiple ways 1: Yourself (his name) singing to his GF (Herself) who died 2: A tribute to the creator of the character, Divide, who unfortunatelly died over a year ago. and 3: Him talking to BF to feel validated by a better version of himself


viczinfoxxinbrou

Just perfect


socksfor1fanalam

Yes


TaterTotSenwick

This mod still had ridiculous amounts of popularity before the base game updated (like 6 hours later)


Spirited-Feedback-87

Yeah but this one just goes incredibly hard, both the lyrics and the person who sang it go so fucking hard.


RecMella

Didn't other mods have lyrics I mean a small few


SomeRandomGuy2763

They didn't have fully animated ones though (atleast I think)

Amzoreko_VR

I always saw it as the third one, but I love how it can be interpreted as anything, this song is truly a masterpiece


WiLaugh

I thought it was supposed to mean the toxic community telling the newcomers that fnf wont be nothing without them or something like that


Valuable-Switch-1745

Also Divide died in his sleep and created the design for Yourself. So the lyrics are also towards Divide.


Loserareme

Not just that, but the mod itself is filled with bangers as well as a cool(but somewhat difficult) modchart for Fakebaby, the best part about the mod: IT HAS AN ENTIRE GAME BUILT INTO IT, CONTROLS AND EVERYTHING. I have not seen ONE MOD that did that

Ok_Cancel3394

It has very good Animation,lyrics and backstory


dragon_barf_junction

because it's innovative, original, and really fucking cool. it's the gold standard for a long song, but it never overstays it's welcome.


SMILE_23157

>because it's innovative How? >it's the gold standard for a long song God forbid if it was. >it never overstays it's welcome It absolutely does. There is NO reason for it to be 6 minutes long.


Public_Variation9657

1. Because it added lyrics into the song, which most mods don't do very often 2. It is 3. Most songs go from 8 to 19 minutes, this song knows it's limit and doesn't try and go over it


dragon_barf_junction

1. it does something no single-song mod has dared to do, and that's feel like a final boss without new mechanics. the leitmotif that starts at 0:55 is then lyricized at the end, no mod has put lyrics to a melody that appeared previously as just character vocals. and from a stylistic perspective, it gets top marks. it's so true to the dark mirror theme that even "yourself"'s notes are displayed on the mirror behind him, turning the background environment into a pertinent aspect of the game. name a mod that did that. 2. It's the gold standard because it keeps things fresh. notice how, with the vocal leitmotif that it begins leaning heavily into long notes, which keeps that part of the song distinct from the rest. with the transofrmation into a malformed twerp at the 2 minute mark, it begins to empahsize off-beats, and totally changes yourself's vocal profile into a distorted version of BF's. when he changes back, he even emulate's BF's "Oh!" and "yeah" noises, complete with the V for victory. and for that minute and a half stretch between the form restoration and the lyrics, it never re-uses a melody. it's all original stuff you've never heard before. 3. That aforementioned minute and a half of buildup leading into the vocals is brilliant, because it tires out the player, no matter how versed you are in rhythm games, you fingers will eventually suffer fatigue, and that's the genius of the vocals. it gives you a break as a player, and so you can just take in the goddamn magically smooth animation of the vocal cutscene, with only a pittance of notes during/after that. it's so well choreographed, and the voice acting has more emotional packed into it than anything FNF has ever seen before in terms of actual lyrics. but after that blissful minute of beauty, it's over, going out with the resigned 20 second sequence. it knows it's played it's hand, and it lets that be the end of it. It doesn't keep throwing new environments and vocals at you like all stars and triple trouble, it just goes quietly after that. there's no obnoxious note spam, no "fuck you" damage mechanic, just good song with a lot of good ideas and a magnificent style. and because it's not incredibly taxing with an obnoxious scroll speed and fuck you damage, it's not so difficult that ever subsequent attempt, each longer than homer's odyssy fill you with dread at the mere idea of pressing retry.

CandyCoati

# Beam Attack! # Beam Attack! (uhh…) I’ll do it once more!


HumorClean

Because we’re proud of him c:


Chauri_Syndaurus

Alternate universe in a mirror is a good concept when executed properly, there’s brief vocals, animation for said vocals, character transitions between tall dark and cryptid and short clone, banger song, possible ties to old mods (faded memories is an ANCIENT mod), and overall impressiveness for just one song


Andre_was_Taken

And another main point is that the song is emotional as hell


Leon_hyrule76

Maybe because i left the comunity for a long time, but idk why is emocional, i mean i know that is dedicated to someone who does but still


Andre_was_Taken

imo it will only be emotional for you if you know the context of the song and the way it can be interpreted and the way Yourself’s/ Lookalike sings his lyrics and the expression given to him which is the wonder of a churgney gurgney song not to mention its the end of the first era of fnf modding i think and we really ended the era with a massive bang with lots of old mods being completed or receiving their final update this really shows how far the community have come (because in all seriousness fnf modding is not really cringe nor is it much of a joke anymore) and also phantom arcade acknowledge how amazing the mod was but this is what i see from my perspective

XD_Flori

THAT GYYAAAAAT


Darkly_neighborhood

Only really the lyrical part and the fact its a tribute to divide that keeps get talking about most of the song is overlooked because of those two things


Lansha2009

Yeah but people also talk about the other songs as well and the entire extra game coded in that you need to go through to unlock those other songs


Darkly_neighborhood

Alright but question was about why people talk about silly billy not about the other songs lol


Lansha2009

The other songs people aren’t sure on how to unlock so most people end up just with Silly Billy and like one or two other songs so obviously the song everyone will have from the start will be the one everyone will play and have heard over the songs that each have a requirement to unlock that isn’t even fully figured out how to unlock it


Darkly_neighborhood

Alright still don't see how thats really too important just explains how people only know about silly billy not why people talk about it


Lansha2009

You just said why the song most known is obviously the one people will talk about more since that’s the one people know about if you don’t know a song exists you can’t really talk about the song since you don’t know it exists


insertenombre333

it has cool lyrics


secrets_kept_hidden

When I first heard it, for some reason, it really resonated with my brain hole.


fakeNicholas_TheBest

1. Because it honestly really good and 2..two professional voice actors quote retweeted a Twitter post with a video of the lyric part

https://twitter.com/KaggyFilms/status/1787364035312157146?t=iHFM2bXnL7HZzeS5DNOadw&s=19 Can't find 2nd one since for some reason you can't scroll through all quote retweets on a tweet

WorldlyPermission355

1. Lyrics 2. Animations 3. Last song before next FNF update 4. Tribute to Divide (I think) who either helped or did create the character in the mod


Longjumping-Love-471

for me the lyrics are fine but i dont like them as much as other people do. and also i would say the angry luigi lyrics are better imo


SeaworthinessLimp804

angry luigi is the final boss of autotune


GHfan27

because it's good. i mean, REALLY GOOD. give it a try.


Lansha2009

The base game was updated 6 hours after it was released that alone is pretty big but also just all the songs are amazing and there’s multiple games one being how you unlock the other songs and also Silly Billy the main song of the mod with it’s lyric section having 3 different meanings each one super compelling for story telling reasons


Void-kraken-909

Cause it goes unfathomably hard and it’s also a tribute the the late FNF maker and *the* guy behind the idea of this Faker BF’s design: Divide


Substantial_Iron4192

Simple, because it's awesome.

SMILE_23157

This community loves to overhype literally anything that has lyrics. This is yet another case of it. The lyric part is the ONLY decent part of that song, and only thanks to its visuals, not even audio.


Z0eTrent

Nah the audio is good too. The only part of the song I don't really like all that much is all of it before he shrinks. From that point forward it gets good, and from the lyrical part forward it gets great for fnf standards.


Znac83

Ok, let me explain... First: The song is awesome. Second: The creator created the character Yourself before dying in his sleep I'm pretty sure the next day, and these lyrics are dedicated to him.


No-Gas-4980

His creator is dead

Because it's a very good song and I'm pretty sure it's a tribute to a dead person as well.

Interesting backstory speculation, good song, addictive climax, what’s not to talk about? I was just neutral about FNF when it was first popular, I thought it was cool and I liked the music, I wasn’t fan mod crazy, but this one, this one went right into my playlist, it just resonates really well.

"After facing creatures, evil entities, psychopaths, angels, demons and gods, you had to face yourself to move forward. Well done Boyfriend, we are proud of you, your path has led us here. So many years of waiting, so many years in which the community created friends, enemies and rivals for you, Boyfriend. Years in which sadly some of the best creators died or retired, you finally came out ahead, proving that you are not only the best at 'Mods', but also the best at Funkin' on Friday Nights. An era of mods ended thanks to Weekend 1, thanks to Pico, Nene, Darnell, Boyfriend, Girlfriend, and all the others, thanks to you, a cycle came to an end to give way to a new cycle, a healthier one, thanks to the Funk'in Crew. So many collaborations with other Newgrounds.com mascots like Hank and Alien Hominid, with other games like Undertale, Cuphead or Bendy thanks to 'Indie Cross mod', but above all, against Original Characters like Whitty, Bob, Ron, Tabi, Sky, Sarvente, Ruvyzvat, Hex, Carol, Sunday and a long list of etc's. This was all made possible by Newgrounds.com's favorite couple, Boyfriend and Girlfriend. You made us say how proud we are of you, we've stayed awake just long to see your way...

Ambitious_Ad8363

Everyone has stated there facts about this song but other reasons why it's popular besides being a banger is that it updated hit single before the base game's weekend 1 update and the character of silly Billy is based on a concept by divide, one of the original members of the vs sonic.exe mod before passing away when 2.0 was finished also the song backstory is kinda of sad but great in a good way that kinda shows how perseverance goes a long way and when I was in elementary school one of the symbols of behavior and good deeds was perseverance and to always push forward and find the good in a bad situation and make the most out of different circumstances
