Worth pointing out “your time is now, your [inside]’s out. Honey how you grew, and if we stick together who knows what we’ll do” Bo took a 5 year break because he was having huge anxiety attacks and started to blackout after his last performance and immediately ran to go puke. There is injected moments where you realise Bo’s fame blossomed on the internet and that this was his reality for a long time. He is a fantastic writer and always think to look deeper with his lyrics. Great vid ❤️

@SolDizZo 2 года назад

Yup. All Eyes On Me was, in my opinion, every inner conflict he had with voices of anxiety snatching his body away from him during one of his panic attacks. It really hits different, because a lot of people with similar anxiety or emotional trauma couldn't listen to versions of the song with the part where he yells at the camera like a drunk father.

A little disappointed that none of the reactors I've listened to have, out loud at least, connected the line "Just nod or shake your head and we'll do the rest" as a direct allusion to the all-mighty algorithms that govern what we see on the internet, that you even talk about at the top of the video. I dunno if that's just a me thing or if the concept of algorithms is so embedded in our everyday lives that it just seemed like a casual line, but honestly I thought it was one of the more horrifying lines in the piece. Like even if you don't engage with the system at all (not using likes or dislikes), you still nod or shake your head if you watch the entire video vs ending it halfway through, for example.

Tweet a racial slur > be bursting with rage > here's a nine yr who died etc. perhaps the song would have gone a different way if the holder had chosen a different path?

This song is aimed squarely at the "Zoomer" generation, kids born after the new millennium who have been raised in a culture centered around the internet. It's from the perspective of those who have an enormous financial stake in encouraging those kids, now young adults, to spend literally all of their time on the internet. No matter what it is you want, the internet is where you should go. Give us your data and let us sell you ads, and never leave. They want to make you think that their intentions are pure, to give you a platform to express all your thoughts and desires, but there's no denying the real motivation is just like any other business, profit. And the way they profit is to get you addicted.

The thing that disturbs me the most, the “you” he sings about in the slow part is at most 13 years old today. “Mommy let you use her iPad, you were barely two!” The iPad was released in April of 2010. If “Mommy” got one on release date and let her child (barely two at this point) play with it, this kid would be 13 by now. Which gives a whole deeper level to this section. How this addictive behavior, that the internet is instigating into its users, is most felt and adopted by our children. It’s a wonderful song and I love Bo for always hitting the “Social-Critique-Nail” square on the head. And the fact, that he was working in the whole “inside” special, alone without a huge staff of editors, producers, and Regisseur on hand, makes this one even more awe inspiring to me.

@Qwertky 2 года назад

The line about how the iPad did exactly what we wanted it to do when we put it in our kid's hand? That one gets me. We asked the Internet to babysit our kids, and now we're shocked at how consumed by it they have grown up to be. What did we really expect?

And yet, without actually giving you any of the power or influence suggested by that phrase, it is still true because you have access to literally the whole world in a cell phone in your hands.

It's good to have our perspective shaken up once in awhile and I'm glad my comment had a positive effect for you. It's a sign of intellectual maturity to see different perspectives and to even change our own.

I've no idea who said this and forgive the paraphrasing, but the gist of it is a favorite of mine: "The ability to change your mind means you still have one!" I hope you have a wonderful day and a long life with countless blessings!

@spicoliii Год назад

15:20 “unstoppable, watchable, the time is now, your Inside’s out, honey how you grew” I think this bit is the most genius honestly. on top of the general “your emotions/what’s inside is now out there for everyone to see” directed at gen z, this is literally what’s happening to Bo as he’s singing and we’re watching the special - his inner thoughts and emotions are now out there. plus since the special is called Inside, I think the internet is speaking to Bo directly and giving a little nod to the fact that, even though the song is satirizing the internet, it’s in a special that’s made entirely for the internet and is going to just end up another part of it, and now bo is being welcomed back after the 5 years he took away from comedy, having grown in that process and that the time is now for him to come back, then going on to give Bo its own personal sales pitch, saying “if we stick together, who knows what we’ll do?” Maybe I’m overthinking this, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned about Bo it’s that each part of his specials has multiple layers. Just adds to his insane level of genius

This might be my favorite performance of his. The sinister undertone boiling over into that demonic laugh near the end is just an amazing visual and auditory message.

@SamIAmWich 2 года назад

The way you stopped dancing at the Apathy line is 100% wonderful and a true reaction. Bo is damn good.

@CantDraw-bq6pj 2 года назад

4:50 part of that effect I think is the costuming and camera angles. Bo positions himself to be looking down into the camera at almost all of the angles he uses, making him appear larger and predatory and also seem to be "watching" the viewer, but the dark glasses prevent you from watching him back.

Now this is a reaction, you added actual value with your reaction, not like how some other reaction RU-vidrs who only say a couple words or facial expressions, you analysed the song and gave a narrative, you earned urself a subscriber

@ZackackTheBeast 2 года назад

If you're interested to see some hefty wordplay and clever writing, "Words Words Words" from Bo is a must!

@breadboy9714 2 года назад

Check out words words words, new math, stuff like that for his older stuff, can't handle this, country song, gods perspective for newer. Bo is honeslty a genius

"Repeat stuff", "Oh Bo", all such amazing songs

i was in a school play in February, and all the actors, together with the directors, wrote the script from the bottom. since our directors loved Bo Burnham we ended up with this song as our opening song, but with rewritten lyrics of course, to fit the rest of our play. I've sung this song so many times now, it's become a part of my soul.

"It's troubling..." Welcome to Bo Burnham😂 Bo is a GOAT frfr. You're gonna love his older rap songs, BARS for days. And the best part is, most of the bars are about silly shit and they're simultaneously hilarious and very clever🔥

Bo's song has been stuck in my head for a while so I have been watching reactions to it and you are the best on by far. Your reactions and break down of the environment let alone of the lyrics was great!

In the beginning, it feels like it’s how we all got into using the internet. The peer pressure and how wonderful it sounds. Then as he speeds up, it’s us going down the rabbit hole of the greatness and horrifying parts of the internet

@precious6303 2 года назад

Bo's a genius, i'm so glad you're reacting to his stuff. Some of his best works, in my opinion, are "words, words, words." "rant." (not the kanye one) "eff" "hell of a ride" and "i'm bo yo" they're all solely wordplay; if you were to try breaking down the lyrics to any one of these songs, it'd be a solid 20-minute video. and that is a good thing. he's also pretty big on social commentary. songs such as "rant." again, "how the world works" "lower your expectations" "pandering" "repeat stuff" and "art is dead." are really good representations. and then, we have the introspective/sad ones. "can't handle this" "nerds" "all eyes on me" "are you happy?" and "nerds" he has four specials in total. in order, they are "words, words, words" "what." "MAKE HAPPY" and, of course, "Inside" this is just a quick summary to let you know what you were getting into lol, bo is a brilliant mind, always has been ahead of his time. hopefully it helps out 👍🏽👍🏽

@RagePowderKappa Год назад

this is by FAR the best react (as well as lyrical analysis) of "welcome to the internet" that is on youtube. And its really not even close. great video, thank you for your insight into the phrasing as well as explanation of Bo's perspective as the internet.

@hideshiseyes2804 2 года назад

Great reaction vid. The bit that always gets me is the juxtaposition of “here’s why women never fuck you” and “here’s how you can build a bomb”. Two seemingly unrelated things just a couple of clicks away from each other, but he leaves us to make the connection and think about the context for it, and it’s utterly chilling.

@zerosn0w428 2 года назад

I’ve waited so long to hear you react to Bo, I really hope there’s more to come

@kokitrees7394 2 года назад

Bo Burnham is so incredibly talented. Honestly everything is something amazing to check out. Some that I think would be good are the "Can't Handle This" Kanye rant or "Art is Dead"

@cassandra5984 2 года назад

Brilliant reaction! You're getting the big picture and every minute detail that pulls it together. That's cool by itself, but your're doing it as fast ss he's putting it out. Bo's so deep that everything he does deserves this kind of analysis,. Most of us are alone watching Bo dragging deep truth through comedy and don't get to discuss it or here an interesting reaction. I listed to this slowed down to 75% to hear every word and absorb it. You' did it real time! You and Bo could be friends. I can't wait to hear your music. . subscribed.

@SamSayonaraSimon 2 года назад

I really hope we get more Bo reactions from you. Really liked the way you react, the way you analyse and I think you would enjoy stuff like "repeat stuff", "Eff" or "Hell of a ride", which aren't part of his newest special, but also highly recommended.

@hickey7459 2 года назад

I would love to see your reactions to Bo. Starting down this path, I'm curious to see your reactions. Bo is extremely clever in hidden meanings in his songs. I know Knox would be able to pick them up and break the down. As for requests, All Eyes On Me, and How The World Works Please!

@RavixAryss 2 года назад

Hell yes, definitely more Bo! His stuff is so good, and he's an incredible lyricist. Highly recommend "I'm Bo Yo", "Eff", "Nerds", "Words, Words, Words", "Oh Bo", "Rant", and "Hell of a Ride". All great rap songs he's done.

@FFKonoko 2 года назад

@dipper9755 2 года назад

I really like your take talking about the soullessness and how his approach of coming at the topic from the perspective of the internet itself. When I first saw this all I could think about was it's reflection of the mania and shear manic nature of the internet and more broadly the world. It shows this duality where we as people are both victims of the internet and perpetrators. The song is fun while showing the world and us for what we are

@eagleking48 2 года назад

so happy Bo's getting his first AB on the channel; he's such a fiercely intelligent comedian with one hell of an ear for musicality HIGHLY recommend you check out "Can't Handle This", the closer to his previous special "Make Happy". It's a playful dig and homage to Kanye's auto-tuned ramblings, and really delves in deep to the mental health conversation appreciate you as always Knox; road to the first mil's not far!

@Stickarms99 5 месяцев назад

One thing I don't think people tend to notice, the warmer, slower light he turns on during the bridge section where he's talking about "you", comes back on at the very end to conclude the song. To me it symbolizes how the internet has effectively assimilated you into it. You've become a part of it, you're a part of all the background noise that's designed to suck other people into the wormhole.

I find it interesting that Bo throws "Apathy's a tragedy in, in the second half. Because we were getting used to him blindsiding us with the dark lines, and laughing instead of being bothered by them like the healthy would.
