* {{Improv}}: A big part of Daniel's skillset is coming up with short songs and sketches on the fly based on prompts given to him, which he's demonstrated in some of his videos. He's done it live too, as can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwDy79rnkK0 here]].

* BunnyEarsLawyer: Hoodie Guy, a common recurring character in Daniel's sketches, very often exhibits {{Cloudcuckoolander}} traits. Despite that, he's shown himself to be a very talented musician and, depending on the video, having supernatural powers, like [[{{Telepathy}} reading minds]] and [[RealityWarper warping reality]].

* ImplausibleDeniability: In the "When you accidentally write songs that already exist" series, after a certain point, Daniel refuses to admit that all the material he's come up with is ripped off from other artists, no matter how many times he puts the melodies in a different key or runs the lyrics through a thesaurus.


Added DiffLines:

* NotHelpingYourCase: In the "When you accidentally write songs that already exist" series, Daniel might be able to get away with ripping off some songs if he had a less knowledgeable teacher, because the first one he brings is usually obfuscated enough to almost pass without being caught. But when he ''is'' inevitably called out for plagiarism, he tries to defend himself with more tunes, and it becomes clear that everything else he came up with is ''even more obviously'' ripped off, just proving the teacher's point.

* YouTuberApologyParody: "I've grown as a person" features Daniel standing over a blue background, sighing, then rambling vaguely at length about a indiscretion he committed in the last couple years, but he claims that it's okay because he's grown as a person since then. The audience is less concerned about his apology, and more concerned with the fact that he has literally grown, to like eighty feet tall (the blue background was ''the sky''). Apparently, he get struck by lightning ten times in a row to end up like that, and it was all over the news.

* AfterlifeAntechamber: The After in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytHaqTw-zsw Welcome to the After (music video)]]" is a WhiteVoidRoom with nothing but a couch and television where dead souls go to be judged.

* HeavyMeta: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OmZB36csdRA When you write a song about hip hop]]" is about Hoodie Guy writing an EducationalSong about Hip-Hop. [[SubvertedTrope The twist?]] It's an upbeat, not Hip-Hop song where you FollowTheBouncingBall that you'd picture the WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}} singing.
* MessianicArchetype: Gsus from "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kjhHCXPO3pw When you pray to Gsus]]" is a KingOfAllCosmos take on Jesus, being summoned whenever a GSUS chord is played. He is the son of GAD (as in the notes), is super into himself and tries reenacting TheGreatFlood (with Daniel playing the part of Noah) because he hates modern music. When Daniel manages to convince him not the flood the Earth, he accidentally does it anyway using an app on his phone.
* SecretTestOfCharacter: In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytHaqTw-zsw Welcome to the After (music video)]]", the Judge gives Daniel the chance to learn one thing he always wanted to know to see whether he deserves to go "[[{{Heaven}} Up North]]" or "[[{{Hell}} Down South]]". [[SkewedPriorities Daniel asks if his high school girlfriend cheated on him]]. The video is just the Judge telling him that it was a test and he failed it.
* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: InUniverse. The "When you accidentally write songs that already exist" series of videos is about Daniel trying to write an original song, only to accidentally plagiarize the instrumentals of various popular songs and showtunes.
