@billyowen9800 2 года назад

I may be 100% wrong, but I think that he is showing that even though the comments and all the negativity although they may effect him he still uses it to make the beat of the song. He uses his art to deal with the negativity. Music from pain and chaos, art from suffering, and depression.

@AChickandaDuck 2 года назад

I think you’re right! He uses the negativity and anxiety and puts it into his music and it helps him feel in control (the way he controls the voices with his hands.) Genius.

@billyowen9800 2 года назад

Yes. So much talent.

@ClandestineMerkaba 2 года назад

Alchemy.

@WarsWorth Год назад

This was my interpretation as well. Maybe not just the beat specifically, but the fact that he took a lot from the negativity and trauma in his life and built his creativity on top of it. I think this song is a look into his process

I love that he DID write a "silly song about Facebook" WHILST challenging the norm. Also he said that he was surprised to see how the audience that came up to him to tell him they most related to his work were teenage girls, even more than his peers. He's also talked about how cringey it is to pander to teens in a patronising way. Also is it just me who gets chills when the "we think we know you" line first happens?

It's so meta that this piece IS him working the critics into his work, AND showing the process and journey of getting there. That's what he did with inside too in a way.

@gus8696 2 года назад

At the end, when it said Bo Burnham again, he was pointing at the audience - telling them they are changing him too. He was drowning out the voices and turning them into his creativity and comedy Great video

@heytorponcio8442 2 года назад

My interpretation of this show is that bo is being offended by these 3 people and then he turns all his problems into music. That's exactly what he did on his last shows and on the inside. In "we think we know you" he also increases the music until he can't hear the insults.

@antonshestakov2688 2 года назад

It would’ve been so cool to see this live. Not knowing the title of the song probably makes such a difference. When halfway the “we think we know you” hits.

@TextrovertSolidork-KT 28 дней назад

It really does. I didn’t see this show live, but I watched right after it came out on Netflix, I think. I knew Bo Burnham but I didn’t know any of the songs from this special. The goosebumps I got, it’s a feeling I won’t ever forget. And I definitely teared up at the very end, it hit very hard

@SuffiReax 2 года назад

Thank you :)

@monodescarado 2 года назад

I reckon you nailed this one dude! Regarding Tim Minchin: Bo is a lot more introspective and clever with things like his staging, symbolism and production. Tim just uses music (he’s an amazing pianist) and comedy to say things like they are. He deals with stuff like religion, child abuse in the Catholic Church, evolution, race, love, etc, but it’s a lot more silly and light-hearted (mostly) than Bo’s inner-turmoil. Here are some recommendations (not in any order): - Prejudice - Pope Song (a lot of f-bombs) [best with the Sydney Symphony Orchestra] - Confessions - Darkside - Storm (9-minute beat poem)

@OptimusProvost 2 года назад

AND on top of memorizing all that this was at the end of performing a whole special that he memorized. Bo Burnham is an absolute legend!

@ellabella7621 2 года назад

He managed to entertain a crowd without directly saying anything for six minutes. That alone is impressive enough

@moni13000 2 года назад

I loved your insight on this. I had never noticed before how he drowned out the voices with the music. And after you mentioned it I know that that was exactly his intent. To expand on what you said about him taking their bullying and turning it into his show, I kinda felt like he was literally taking control back from them. Up till then their voices hadn’t changed. But not only did he control their voice, he changed their tune. He used autotune to make their voices into something different, something better. It’s been years since I first saw this special and I’m still getting blown away by his genius.

@SuffiReax 2 года назад

That is a fantastic point

@devoncullins3464 2 года назад

Do prejudice by Tim Minchin. And left brain right brain by bo, that would be sick!

@jaytea3085 2 года назад

9:30 that's an interesting interpretation. i think that kind of hand-wave gesture we see him do is his way of looping the last four bars in this impromptu fantasy music software he's introduced to us. it doesn't seem like the most intuitive gesture, as we can see given how you misinterpreted it. but he wasn't exactly going to interrupt the performance to explain a new mechanic of this fantasy scenario we're all playing along with, so i think we can give him some slack in that regard.

You've honestly become my favourite person to react to Bo Burnham, the way you try to analyse all the details and really understand the meaning is great. I really hope you continue reacting to his songs, there isn't any wrong choices when it comes to Bo imo. Some of my personal favourites are "Lower your expectations", "Rant" (not the Kanye one, there is another), "Kill yourself", "Words, words, words" (such amazing wordplay, it's a must in my books) and "This funny feeling" from Inside. Hope you enjoy any of his songs you decide to listen to!

@kaigaming0115 2 года назад

Honestly the memorization must have been torture, I just imagine him sitting there trying to memorize the hand movements for the song while the lyrics remind him of everything he’s been told or had gone through throughout the peak of his popularity. I don’t know how someone could do that, and to me it shows how strong of a person he is, or at least was (I haven’t seen his new album yet). In a way, I envy his strength and perseverance.

@moni13000 2 года назад

I heard that Tim Minchin was actually one of Bo’s comedic inspirations. And I can understand why. Tim in incredibly clever, his comedic timing is impeccable. And no shade to Bo’s cause his piano playing is amazing, but Tim is on another level. Like Tim has actually composed musicals. I would definitely start with Prejudice. It’s one of his best known and for good reason.

Did you notice how on the remix part of it, where he included the voices into his song, he could only take the girl and the dude selling weed into it, but the show ended with "Mr. Burnham" still there, unaffected by the song? Because while he can drown out the people wanting to be friends with him or looking down on him he was still unable to escape the industry trying to make money out of him.
