Nurpo is about Jack's music
  • This is how it might be connected:

He eats the coins you drop between the cushions of your couch. He converts them into Dopamine from inside of his mouth

This verse is referring to his Patreon and how he uses the money he gets from people to make his music and art.

He says amazing things but only whispers to the deaf

He's pretty popular in his fandom, but mainstream media and culture only really knows him for songs like Buttercup and Oh Klaholma.

He speaks of what adult can't remember and children haven't the words to describe.

This verse referrs to the Indecipherable Lyrics in his music, and how most people have issues understanding and describing the lyrics.

Nurpo also has a different meaning, but this time, is based on a homeless starving child based on a theory on Reddit
  • Remember the "He eats the coins you drop between the cushions of your couch. He converts them into Dopamine from inside of his mouth"? Well, he collects leftovers and donations to buy food, which makes him happy.
  • Also another part of the lyrics "He says amazing things but only whispers to the deaf" means he has good ideas to eliminate homelessness but they're only told to those without power or not willing to listen.
  • And the final one "He speaks of what adult can't remember and children haven't the words to describe." is him speaking to adults, but they can't remember what he's saying, and when speaking to children, they don't know how to describe/understand what he's saying

Love Will is about a miscarriage
I heard about this interpretation in a comment from the video, so I thought it would be good to pass it here.

To summarize, the creature that comes out of Jack's head is Jack and the girl's interpretation of the fetus being sentient and alive. They grew a bond with the baby when they saw it on the ultrasound. The "love spilling out the open doors" is the uterine lining exiting out the body and smearing on the kitchen floors. The scene where the background turns into a vaguely bloody flesh color is when the fetus exits the girl's body. The fetus wasn't alive long enough for blood to travel through its veins, but Their love for the baby was enough to keep it alive, even if it was only in their thoughts.

The baby from “Baby Son Adoring Us” had untreated hydrocephalus
It would explain his large head, his “sunset eyes”, and the extreme pain he felt.

Abigail is actually getting disappointment from many people
Surprisingly, I (GolfyBall123) made this theory back on Reddit. So, noticed people on the window seeing her, they're just being distracted by her pretty apron when they're actually do not like her cooking skills. Also, the salt shakers are portrayed as herself, while the fig is portrayed by her parents. Her parents (as the fig), tells her that her dream were founded on misguided hopes, and she should have pick another job. Also, you noticed the money sled on the floor? Well those money were from the people who didn't noticed her cooking skills, and that they just know about her pretty apron, which cause them to bring money to her. Also you know those crossed fingers (notably at the end)? Well those represents the disappointment from her bad cooking skills.
Pumpkin Song is about child grooming.
The kid in the video is lured into the house by the Pumpkin, where he ends up showing him tons of cool tricks while singing to gain his trust. Once the Pumpkin knows the kid trusts him enough, he starts doing awful things to him, such as making his teeth fall out and causing him to go blind, with each terrible thing being worse than before. Once the kid is unable to run and is too shocked to call for help, the Pumpkin reveals his plans to make him "fall asleep" (possibly kill him or sedate him) and feed him to his cat. At that point there's little to no hope for the kid to escape his fate.
The singer's "girlfriend" in "Tenderly" is not their actual girlfriend, but rather, doesn't even exist in first place
I actually have this idea while doing something normal. To be clear, I am a big serious. The singer is just having a... I don't know, but he just imagine that he lost a girlfriend. And if you don't believe me because you can see his girlfriend, I'm gonna prove it to you that this is not his girlfriend, but rather, is just his friend being betrayed for being called as his "girlfriend" (cause she looks like his "girlfriend", you know?)
  • …So basically he’s so desperate for love that he imagines himself a girlfriend that misses him?
    • Yes. He doesn't have a girlfriend yet, but he still wants one, so yeah.
The previous song also has a different meaning, but it involves a college/university student and his mother
This would make the girl real now, unlike before. So this seems fit because if you go to college/university, you will be in there 24/7 until you become a young adult, and at night, you go to dorms. This song shows a college/university student and his mother missing each other while he was in college/university.
Me Night is a prototype version of Gettin My Mom On
Me Night is a song that Jack usually plays at live shows, and if one compares the lyrics of Me Night to Gettin My Mom On, there's noticeable similarities between the two. Both have lyrics about going to a store in the mall (Sears and JC Penny respectively), Doing motherly things (yoga & driving your kids to school), and eating/drinking something that's usually something a mother usually does (coffee and Special K). There's also the fact that Me Night was allegedly supposed to be on Pop Food, but was scrapped for unknown reasons. So it's possible that after scrapping it, Jack retooled it into Gettin My Mom On for his next album HiLo.
  • I think it's not just a prototype. I think Me Night is about a 15 year old girl who goes to a store in a mall to buy her school supplies, doing yoga as a way to exercise, and drinks coffee at morning to energize herself. She has an older brother (he is 17 years old btw) who goes to the different store in the different mall to buy clothes for his younger sister, usually drives her to school, and likes eating Special K as breakfast.
    • But that would make the line about Camus and Mr Pibb line in Me Night a lot more disturbing due to the fact that Camus is an alcoholic beverage and the girl would be extremely underaged.
    • OH SHOOT I FORGOT TO LOOK CLOSELY TO THE LYRICS so I changed her age from 12 to 15
    • I mean, where I'm from, alcohol is prohibited until you're 21, but she could be drinking it without telling anyone, so that works.
"Richter" is about a guy who killed via suicide at the age of 13
  • "Godless afternoon" is him self-killed during afternoon.
  • "Baby's in the basement" means when he was a baby, his parents turn the basement into his room
  • "Still wishing for something" represents him wishing something good
  • "Love can really get you" means he was the only one who wasn't received love unlike others, and "you" potrays as other people
  • "Sour pistol, shoot the tooth out" means shooting himself. Pistol is a type of gun, and "tooth" represents his life.
  • "Landed on me" means he shot himself
  • "Now it's my turn", which it means he decides to take his last words
  • "Not how it should be" means that his life is not like how he wants
  • Also, the transition sounds at the end are gunshots, and the sound beeping at the end represents the end of his life.
Another possible take on the Richter theory listed above.
Godless afternoon- The person that killed themselves was an atheist.

Baby’s in the basement- The person felt abandoned by their parents, like an old toy in a basement.

Still wishing for something- The person was still hoping that someone genuinely cared about them, but to no avail.

Love can really get you- The lack of love and attention caused the person to become suicidally depressed.

Sour pistol shoot the tooth out- The person ended it by a gunshot to the mouth, likely knocking out at least one tooth.

Landed on me- The news eventually made it to their parents/friends

Now it’s my turn- Said parents/friends now feel depressed about the situation

Not how it should be- the parents/friend’s view on the situation

  • Wait hold on, in your theory on "Richter", does this song show a person's dad's point of view, since the singer is male, and the last lines were related to the person's parents?
    • It’s mostly just an outside view of the situation, first focusing on the now deceased person, then transitioning to the perspective of the parents
    • But my interpretation on "Richter" focuses fully on him before he kills himself
    • Yeah, but my interpretation shows it from an outside view. Neither of our theories are right or wrong, it's just our own take on the song.
"Tenderly" took place after "Richter" and this song shows the guy from "Richter"'s parents mourning his death
Okay so, let's break down the parts. "Is there something wrong with love/us?" is a repeated phrase that was asked if they did something wrong to him. Also his parents have the word "tenderly" in chorus, possibly regreting themselves that they wouldn't have give little to no tender to him. Also the phrase "You're not listening!" shows his parents noticing him not speaking (due to him already committed suicide).
"At the Store" is about a woman moving on after her boyfriend cheated on her.
  • At first she misses him "like a pair of shoes", but eventually she moves on with her life and tells him to stop his crying because she won't buy his time anymore.
"Candy Eyes" shows the backstory of how the couple from "Tenderly" forms
  • Basically he notices a girl sleeping, and he accidentally wrote the song, which not only a girl love it, but also gets skyrocket. Because of this, she wanted him to date with her, and he accepts her words, causing them to become a couple from "Tenderly"
    • But the woman from the Candy Eyes part of the ''Pop Food'' teaser looks nothing like girl from Tenderly.
      • Where's da picture dude? You made me laugh more than surprised
      • I guess the link doesn’t work, but the girl from Candy Eyes has short brown hair while the girl from Tenderly has long blonde hair
      • Oh okay I get it
In "Cupid", the creature did not get shot by Jack nor anyone else, but was actually from a bullet that a cameraman shoots
Got this idea after listening to the extended version of "Hamantha". So of course back before it was filmed Jack was miserable because of a creature inside of his ear and the cameraman shoots the sky with his pistol, but once the cameraman starts to film something, the bullet that the cameraman shoots fall into his ear and then flew onto the sad looking creature from "Cupid" which makes him falls down his ear canal, making the infamous part in that music video
Jacks in his universe were actually just his clones or species and the true Jack (AKA Jack in our universe) is the god of this universe
This might be weird to say this, but after connecting other theories and stuffs, I realized that Jacks were actually just species or clones of himself. As you can, if you look at "Keyman", you can see his fetal self inside of his belly, but I mean, it was supposed to show 1 Jack, but think again. In the same music video, you can see his head become clay, but it reverted back later, which makes no sense at all. Also in "Cupid", we see a creature inside Jack's ear getting shot (but according to "Cupid" theory, he wasn't shot by anyone intentionally, but actually gets killed from a bullet that flies from the sky), but back then he doesn't even exist before that same song. Also in one of his obsecure Instagram post we see him having his brain being close and open, but in "Love Will", however, the egg instead is inside of his head, and in "Oh Mona Lisa", we also see red thing inside of his head instead. But the most prominent example is that in "Inchman", there is Jack punching another Jack, and after that more Jacks appear. Also if you have heard of "Richter" theory, well here's a thing: Jack in "Richter" commit suicide", but the problem is, if he died, how is Jack from other videos still alive? It's because he was just one of his clones or one of the species, which makes sense because Jack from "Tenderly" is his dad who tries to keep his son (which according to the connection of "Tenderly" and "Richter", his son is Jack from "Richter") away from death, but fails to do so. Also in "Gettin My Mom On" Jack was seen selling a knife to a bee and was able to get it back without getting injured, and also buy stuff from a store in a mall, and also eats and drinks anything that most mother usually eats or drinks, but for other Jacks in other videos, they didn't do that. Also in "Baby Hotline", one of Jack's eyes were replaced with a can, and in "Deploy", his eyes were exaggerated, and in "Those Eggs Aren't Dippy", both of his eyes were replaced with eggs.
  • So you're saying that there are multiple versions of Jack in his work, and that each video a Jack appears in is a different Jack?
Jack's hiatus is setup to resemble a deteriorating VHS tape.
I was looking at list of his videos in chronological order, and I realized that the thumbnails and the videos in general seem to be losing color around the time of Good Morning Blondie's release, and by the time Baby Son Adoring Us comes around, the colors in his videos are very dull. This troper collects tapes and has noticed that some of the more damaged tapes lose their color and are completely black and white in some cases. Another thing that draws attention is how audio is affected on deteriorated tapes, which could explain the gibberish titles on Jack's Patreon posts (which can be seen by anyone regardless of membership).
The opening song on the Micropop album, "Order", is supposed to sound like an orchestra warming up.
