[thegipper77]

1:16 that jingle woulda been enough to elevate taco johns into legendary status

[beitie]

He was a good guy. His music will be enjoyed by many for years to come. Those who don't get it... well, they can get their ass whipped by Birdman.

[eegphalanges]

So much heart, so much love!

[flyinburritobrother]

Taco John's is DELICIOUS.

[garygnars]

I headbutted Wesley Willis & it was in 411VM.

[fajitaRBguy01111]

Can someone tell me what is America's Number One Hot Dog. I can't make out what brand he is saying

[plugtunz]

@fajitaRBguy01111

Bar S

[ayceb6]

The bottom line is he made people smile. I'm only sorry that I just discovered him. I hope he's found peace in God's kingdom... and that he got to bring his keyboard.

[PabzGLRP]

Taco John's? Is that like Taco Bell mixed with Papa John's? This guy really went out of his way to hunt down every single fast food chain and put them in his song - even the ones that are based on other fast food chains! Now that's dedication.

[Zontertes]

2:45

[fajitaRBguy01111]

@Zontertes it hard to find out what that means, but i know what you mean

[lesterclaypool1]

Mr. Wesley Willis figured out, on his own, the occupational and art therapy that has been used in institutions for years. I'd say that I'm impressed by that but I'm not sure that impressed is the word that I'm looking for.

Inspired seems to fit better.

[getdeported]

is taco johns any good? i have never heard of them. living in northern california

[U4rikmind]

i loved that song about the mullet. that was some real shit and funny also

[D347H2]

I love Wesley Willis. Bless his soul for swearing and making everyone laugh. He was the greatest mentally ill person I've ever heard. And knew how to rock on!

[PassatMrT]

His songs were so money you could use them as currency. Godspeed Wesley, hope you're jammin' with James Brown now.

[Ch33zx]

HEY HEY HEY, HA HA HA, HEY HEY HEY

[Lepiotaphage]

"How y'all doin'. I'm a rockstar."

"Oh boy."

[TheILLTechnics]

"Rock over London, Rock on Chicago."

[jonmarc1980]

Please God Wesley dont head butt the children

[spastikman]

I'd buy that hair for 100 bucks

[delinquent000]

yeah cool guy whatever but come on he's clearly retarded lol.

[shimokita2]

How'd he get that huge scar on his face?

[barqs1898]

@shimokita2 Sometime in the 1990s, he was getting off of a bus when some dude attacked him from behind with a box-cutter, slashing him across his face and back. It was because Wesley had been cussing out loud on the bus, but he wasn't cussing at the guy who attacked him or anybody else on the bus. He had a mental illness which caused him to hear voices, and he was cursing at them. I know it sounds crazy, but that's the story. The guy who attacked him supposedly drew a prison sentence.

[shimokita2]

@barqs1898 - That does sound crazy! Thanks.

[lesterclaypool1]

@barqs1898

I've met people who feel the need to make some kind of politically correct statement about WW, usually stemming from their confusion about the fact that that the audience was rocking out with Wesley, as opposed to laughing at him. I would tell them about Wesley's assault and how, by the very virtue of WW being in the public eye, the likelyhood of him being victimised again, as happens to far too many people with mental concerns, was slim. That would usually shut them up.

[hom3rhom3r]

@barqs1898 You left out a key bit if information about the man who slashed him in the face, and then in the back...

HE'S DOIN' TIME IN JAAAILL, HE'S DOIN' TIME IN JAY-AAAL, HE'S DOIN' TIME IN JAAAAAAYYYAAAAYAAAALLLL.

a men.

[misctimelapse]

@barqs1898 it was a negroid, an 'african american', most of the black people disrespected him and insulted him.

[GoldJesus]

@shimokita2 He greets people with a headbutt, foreal.

[TheChickenFuneral]

i have the exact same chipped tooth

[mydickm16]

Suck (insert a word here)'s dick

Thats the wesley willis lyrics and they are fucking great

[mydickm16]

Suck a cheetah's dick

[NotIkeman]

Am I the only who suspects that the South Park episode where Timmy fronts a rock band might have been inspired by Wesley Willis and the way people reacted to him?

[sammarkey]

@NotIkeman sorry i was trying to vote you up

[uberbigbread]

This guys music is so shitty and horrible that its epic

[lilrascaltubby]

rock over london, rock on chicago, wheaties the breakfast of champions

[inferneko]

WOW, He really worked hard and put effor on his music! Forget M Jackson, THIS IS A REAL ARTIST!!!

[MasterSamurai]

People may have disliked his music for some strange stupid reason, but if you met Wesley Willis, and you said something along the lines of "You suck" you would have the WORLD beating the shit out of you.

Seriously. Wesley Willis was probably the friendliest guy Rock N Roll ever knew.  And if you had ANY reason to hate him, there was something wrong with you. Period.

[jjpmstd]

The spiral bound booklet at 1:10 is not a Taco John publication.

It is Willis' own.

As he shares it with the employee, it is open to a page with lyrics imploring us to

"Suck my doberman's dick".

Most excellent angel, Wesley Willis!

"Rock on Heaven!"

[jajajabalsy]

R.I.P. Wesley WIllis, you were awesome.

[FunkifiedMakk]

2:33 Accused mister obama so you didn't started again doesn't like him that was left in the minority slashing jobs don't know

[FunkifiedMakk]

Turn on subtitles (CC) Ahahahaha.

[Itachisel]

Rock over London, Rock over Chicago, Heaven. R.I.P. Wesley Willis.

[strangefamousjuggalo]

R.I.P. Wesley Willis

[force39osborn]

I lost it when he was growling at the children or whatever he was doing, lmao.

[NUKETHEFISH]

only mexicans would let their kids around that crazy mother fucker!

[IanInTheBawks]

We love you Wesley!

[FarmerDoom]

Stop mulling over the mullet.

[jaredblunk]

I once saw Wesley in San Pedro at a cafe. When the opening band asked if they should play a song with swear words in it, he said "YOU FUCKING BETTER GODDAMNIT!" After that, he proceeded to rock all our asses.

[EdLova]

Biopic about Wesley Willis should be made with kenan Thompson as Wesley...

[IanInTheBawks]

@EdLova Nah. Craig Robinson would do better.

[MasterSamurai]

Wesley Willis' advice for life.

Number 1. I'm gonna do this song again.

Number 2. I'm gonna do this song again all the way up your ass.

Number 3. I'm gonna fuck your ass up like a car crash.

Number 4. I'm gonna fuck you up like a goddamn accident.

Number 5. Jesus is the answer.

[irunintopoles]

Whats on his head

[amadorious]

@irunintopoles its from handing out head butts.

[actor2120]

[YummyBaer]

[faunflynn]

Nice guy It's sad he's gone. I think his life must have been more difficult than it seems from without.

' I messed up again !' 'Can I start over.... again ?'

[patinovideo]

Went to a cookout that he was at around 1997. Quite an odd fellow.

[St4rzZ]

wesley is the man

[oldboytakeshi]

[cm2dude]

Suck My Doberman's Dick. Taco John's

It's a whole lot of mexican

[votejello]

His voice was really cool. I think he could have been the voice of a supervillain or something lol

[MasterSamurai]

My friend is really lucky. He actually got to drive Willis to the airport. I guess the roadies packed up his keyboard and drove to the airport without him, and my friend's older brother drove him to the airport.  Wesley was all 'you guys are my new buds. I'm gonna write a song about Denver Colorado.' My friend at first was kinda weirded out by this guy. But yeah Wesley headbutted him hard, and said he'd be back. My friend still has his ticket for the show he was gonna do before he died...

[wesjoe311]

I got headbutted by Wesley in Dallas about ten years ago.

[kiatasbihgou]

stop mulling over that mullet

[ClaylandStudios]

He's Fat Albert!

[ace32295]

[Homepie]

A true genius and visionary. The world is poorer without him. R.I.P. Wesley, you will never be forgotten.

[SpaceWars2025]

world needs more wackycool people like wesley... WHEATIES, THE BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS!

[Lepiotaphage]

What is he saying is in the name of Jesus and in the lord of hosts and the holy ghost and god's true world?

[baddernoff]

Wesley and I got arested in arvada colorado 2 days after this was shot. the day befor we played a warehouse show on 22 and park. I still hurt from the head butt. Wessly was one of the coolest cats I ever met 101 from 303

[resesmilk2]

i've been headbutted by wesley :)

(also... one of my douchebag friends apparently stole both autographs he gave me. who the fuck steals a wesley willis autograph??? anyways...)

"saying we're taking advantage of him." what a piece of shit. that's exactly what you are doing.

back in highschool when i went to his show it was for the same reason everyone else did: because it was funny as shit.

now i look back and am kind of disgusted to be honest :(

[crassisdead]

@resesmilk2 Shut up. Jello is a legend.

[doksekko]

@resesmilk2 You mean you became like every other stupid yuppie without a sense of humor? Do you even know what he was doing before he got a record deal and some fame? He was fucking homeless you piece of shit.

[fartass23]

[OKBasic]

Wesley WIllis was so amazing, why are the good always the first to go?

[OKBasic]

Wesley WIllis was so amazing, why are the good always the first to go?

[Casanuda]

Taco Johns is delicious, I live in the southwest now and they have an unholy lack of the fast food joint.

And Wesley Willis is 100% awesome.

[Ditch2012]

Don't.

[staphinfection]

WHY?

Wesley did what he loved to do, and with a SEVERE handicap.

He still became famous, to some degree, and he is, was, and always will be a god damn rock star.

You could really whoop a horses ass.

[dedflesh]

suck a snow leopards booty hole with miracle whip

[DRmayybee]

I love  W. W. too

[DocSkribblez]

Taco John - it's a whole lotta messgan

[BrendanIsCool]

suck my dobermans dick

[Cwildenradt]

I'm so fortunate to have been able to receive a headbutt from ol' Wesley at a show in Orlando. That was right after he chugged 8 16oz. glasses of warm soy milk in a row.

Priceless show. He stopped in the middle to go "take a piss." I screamed "Rock & Roll McDonald's!!" after every song that show until he finally said, "OK. This next song is called Rock & Roll McDonald's. Now shut the hell up!!"

Wesley rocked!

[MasterSamurai]

@Cwildenradt I fucking envy you.

I can totally see him doing that.

[Ditch2012]

@Cwildenradt That must have hurt like hell you can tell from that splotch on his forehead that he's used to head trauma.

[godhelpme2009]

[GIANTPANCAKES]

[pizzamanopenup]

God bless Wesley Willis. He was a true rock star.

[SyphusBatterus]

I miss ol Wesley, I got to meet him back in 96 must've bumped heads with him 20 times that night. Also smoked up with Brad Nowell of Sublime that night.

[beanuts23]

Hahaha, suck my doberman's dick!

[crazyskater4]

how did he die?

[barqs1898]

He was undergoing treatment for Leukemia at the time, but I believe the cause of death was from heart failure, if I remember correctly (I might be wrong about that, though).

[123JoeD456]

Complications from Leukemia i read from wiki.

[TownshipPillEpidemic]

Joey Mack's killer rymes put Willis in the ground, Joey Mack Owns.

Wesley's Coming To DVD on December 8, 2009

[TheMusicInMyBrain]

[rayjr62]

fear of a black planet.

[freeeekyyy]

Why not?

[ArtRockRules]

Look at his face. He's such a happy man. More people should just enjoy life more, not be critical bastards who whine about everything.

[kaneda83]

oh quit whining

[JimTheMingebag]

Does anyone know where I can download his Osama Bin Laden song, I can't find it.

[shamanglynn]

It's cool how he doesn't want money for mentioning brands or shops in his songs, he just does it because he likes them.

He is a fascinating guy.

[893165009]

Even if he wanted money for mentioning Brands he wouldn't get it...

[Avaleahful]

"Hey hey hey! Har har har! Hey hey hey! Har har har! " Love it!! He was so amusing :)

[UniQueLyEviL]

LMAO that part with the kids cracks me UP!

[negutzcht]

"rock over london, rock on chicago...!"

[stlguy1984]

This may be hard to believe but wesley was a truly an amazing man, how many of us can say we lived our dreams? I mean this man was ( in his mind) a rock star, i met him at a concert and was nothing but nice the world truely lost a speical person

[Uhai0123]

@stlguy1984

That's the way life goes, we lose the good people while the bastards live and torture us T_T

[Concresence]

Wesley came into the gas station in Central Illinois that I used to work at. He was in the men's room for about 15 minutes singing at the top of his voice. We could hear him at the counter, and at the Subway restaurant attached to the station. I thought I recognized one of his songs when someone opened the door to the bathroom once. When he came out I asked him if he was Wesley Willis and a huge smile lit up his face and he gave us a little 30 second performance,shook hands with me and left.

[SatanSteve666]

You really are the luckiest bastard alive to be walking this planet!

God I wish Wesley was here :(

[snapascrew]

awesome stuff

[shotgun042]

you work at a gas station.

[GarbageNoise]

That's awesome! Man i don't care how dumb, immature, rude, vulgar whatever people say his stuff is. He makes me laugh and feel happy. A great man indeed!

[janX9]

That's pretty cool.

[mikebelgrave]

@Concresence Beautiful story.

[spajo]

@Concresence I hear he could head-butt a person.

[FunkifiedMakk]

@spajo You heard right. That's why he has that bruise on his forehead.

[viasevenvai]

His music is fun to listen to. That's a great thing!

[gdale0777]

You are a true musical genius!!! RIP my friend..

[oHelmslyo]

I swear to God, I have never heard anything like his music. It is indescribable. The bizarre thing about that is, whether that aspect is definitely negative or definitely positive has yet to be seen!

[hazydeist]

Wesley you rock!!! R.I.P brother. Your music brought countless of hours of joy for my friends and I.

[RolodexEnigma]

"Issa whole lotta MESSIKIN." RIP Wesley Willis.

[coonrod1984mc]

my friend just let me listen to him for the first time....good stuff....keep the videos going & flowing

[DeathOfChaos]

When did he pass away?

[barqs1898]

He passed away in August of 2003. He had a rare form of leukemia at the time and was undergoing treatments for it, but I think he officially died of heart trauma. He was a good-hearted person who went through pure hell during a large portion of his life, and it was sad that he wasn't able to live his dream for many more years. Still missing you 6 years later, Wes. God bless you, man.

[DeathOfChaos]

His music was truly one of a time. He's made me and my friends laugh ever since we had started listening to his music. I started listening to it when he had Rockin' Roll McDonald's on Super Size Me. He was pretty cool, I wish I could have met him.

[Bones98]

Yep, WW's music was fucking awesome.

I actually have Suck A Caribou's Ass as my ring tone.

[janX9]

WW ringtone's ... crazy word we live in.

[ExitosGnosis]

i know it dude i saw him at the rec room of Los Gatos High like, months, before he died. i stood in line to get a head butt and all these teen chicks and hipster pricks got a headbutt and when i got there he kind of looked to the side and muttered "...like to buy a cd?..." i was pissed! was so cool to see him, and i was shocked when he died right after that. best show ever!

[SirGodLordKing]

@barqs1898 I thought he had epilepsy or something?

[DeathOfChaos]

I always wanted to see what he looks like. He looks about like I thought...but also not. lol. He is hilarious!

[Ljandj99]

Wes is the King! Taco Johns itsa whole lotta Mesican!

[Nederlandac]

He had the same kind of shizophrenia like me.

[luger9100]

I have two ink art pieces by Wesley. They are amazing! Got them outside the Metro.

[godhelpme2009]

i am genuinely & profoundly jealous of your art pieces & that you had the opportunity to get them.

I can't remember the last time I was jealous of someone or something.Its a feeling/emotion I just can't relate to ,but now I know what that feeling is like.

W.W.'s art continues to be a unique pleasure in my life & inspires new experiences in my mind & my psyche/soul .

Thanks to you. thank you Wesley Willis.

Thank You to everyone who helped to promote 1 of my all time favorite artists

[LLPPRO]

I knew Wesley. Gave him a ride to Chicago Union Station, one day. RIP Wes'

[para5ite666]

LIAR!

[electrohacker]

One of the greatest rock legends of our time, 10X greater than that michael jackson fag

[PunkMartyr]

This guy is f'n epic

[seannypoo]

wesley willis you are a true rock star, i like the way you rock, i like the way you roll. You can really whip a horses ass with a belt.

[NYGSD]

Wesley Willis is my favorite artist in the world. He is pure king. FUCK YEA Wesley Willis! RIP buddy!

[bobbbbbable]

Wesley Willis is best musician ever. Fuck Beethoven and Mozart and all the masters, classics suck, horribly composed. Fuck jazz, fuck country, fuck rock and roll, fuck rap, fuck metal, fuck all forms of music except Wesley Willis. Only Wesley Willis is good enough to call his work music. Everything else is trash, not music.

Best in English Literature: Shakespeare. Best in Science: Einstein. Best in Music and composition: Willis.
