This guys takes a huge risk every single time he sips that drink while listening to Bo Burnham
LOL I was thinking the same.
Yes
😂🤣🤣
I had to stop drinking if I’m watching him and stop watching him if I’ve been drinking lol
Factsssss
He is musically blessed, intelligently self aware, and overly empathetic. The more you go down the rabbit hole, the more his genius comes out. ❤️
And the more your heart aches 😭
I didn’t realise I was a fan until a couple of weeks ago and now I love the guy. Top top dude.
I remember being sent links to his video ‘new math’ forever ago. It’s so wild to see his journey as an artist. Truly brilliant!
Almost uncomfortably self aware. In his own words from Inside "self awareness doesn't absolve anyone of anything"
Apparently he also doesn't know how to read or write music
Most underrated thing about this song is the acting.
Everyone notices the laugh, but his entire personality through the song is such a good suave devil/demon style, it is so amazing, and he does so many simple things to make it better, like he lets his face freeze with the emotionless grin just a little after the song ends before it cuts.
I've been shopping this around as his audition to play the next Joker.
This is a bit late, but the mirrored glasses hiding his eyes is so helpful to that seductive demon thing, the idea that he's hiding his eyes from people is faceted, is it just preventing people from seeing his intentions, or is it something...worse.
@@marinesinspace6253 And then that moment at the end when the red light catches the lenses so it looks like you're seeing his true form for just a second
if bill cipher heard him MAN he would be impressed
yeah right before the laugh I imagine it's the last empathetic circuit within the internet trying to instill hope in the world before the mainframe comes around and ends that shit in its job to pursue infinity
"inside on Netflix, I gotta watch that"
Oh boi....you gonna CRYYYYYYYYY. Its...INTENSE. I watched it 7 times the week it came out. You will watch it over and over and over.
Yes, it was cathartic as hell. Knowing where Bo was mentally when he signed off for 5-6 years, He has come back so strong (I didn't see the movie he produced yet in that gap) with Inside. It was fun & funny, heartwarming and sad and introspective all at once. I laughed, I cried, I died a little inside, but there was a glimmer of the smile we all seek to make life worth facing.
Honestly, it was better catharsis than the therapy I've been getting to deal with this unrelenting nightmare.
I was rather late to the game sadly, only watched it for the first time this weekend and man. I went into it expecting to laugh, was NOT prepared for how much it made me think, and feel, and especially how much All Eyes On Me just wrecked me in the best way possible. It was arguably the least funny of Bo's comedy specials (not a knock, because it was still laugh out loud worthy), but it's something that will stick with me for a long, long time.
@@RagnarokB I feel you man... I've watched it a lot of times since it came out and it's a surprising special because the intent isn't humour like his other specials. It is its own entity with living breathing parts.
@@Atomic_Haggis It's also really changed my perspective of Make Happy, which almost feels like an open beta test of what Inside would become. A live experience, less existential, but still very much performance art that happens to use comedy, and fuels it with vulnerability and raw humanity. Beautiful and hilarious and damaged all at once, much like the performer himself. Perfection.
At the start Cliff: "He's right, you can find anything on the internet"
At the end Cliff: "....Shit, it really is everything on the internet."
At the end of the music i was "WHY IS EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET???"
in order, watch Bo's 'What' , then 'Make Happy' and then 'Inside'. when you watch Inside, it kinda connects to the other specials in a way that will both hurt you and blow your mind. i hope you enjoy it
I second this
@@TayneLewis i triple this. it's honestly such a drastic change in tone seeing everything unfold with full context of who he is and how he functions as opposed to a one off video of a snippet of his most recent special
I quadruppel this! It‘s a whole other experience if u discover him this way!
What about " Words Words Words " ? I believe he did that before What
@@srenpedersen9086 yeah, I love words words words. It's just not streaming anywhere as far as I'm aware unfortunately. Same with his comedy central special
Watching people discover Bo Burnham is quickly becoming my favorite UA-cam content.
You gotta love the fact that as the song goes on the tone of the internet gets more and more sinister to the point when he says "it was always the plan to put the world in your hands" followed by sinister, almost maniacal, laughter.
He actually says *hand*, not *hands*. Which I think is an important distinction because we normally have our phone in just one hand.
It's almost as if he (as the internet) knew that just by putting the world in our hand is enough to ensure chaos and maybe even destruction, because we're self-destructive like that.
@@chuwariwariwap4489 It's human nature, the internet is both a blessing and a curse, it has all of that which you need to survive and to thrive, but also way to much nonsense for you to take a dive, drown yourselves in videos, porn and in hate, it doesn't really matter to what you masturbate, so welcome to the internet, there's a nude picture of your mom, you're a sub and the content is your dom, there's knowledge in excess, there's an abscess on a thigh, why you clicked that video, you don't know why, so reading this and that to with you may dismay, here's a rich lunatic who tells you to pray.
So spend all of your time in waste, click a new video posthaste, you want to watch it all, and you're having a ball, so welcome to the internet, here you can spend your time, donate to streamers every last of your dime, welcome to the internet, you've become a whore, and no matter what, you want more, welcome to the internet, why don't you take a seat, hot asian single teen who is petite, the legality is questionable and so is the truth, the behavior on here is most definitely uncouth, but do you know your root, oh I'm sorry to hear that you got the boot, well kick it here's a video of a girl that is cute.
Welcome to the internet, what may you perceive, it doesn't really matter in what you believe, there's no chance in any hell that you would leave.
So indeed, welcome enjoy the stay, there's only one escape from it and that is to die.
He almost sounds calm and inviting in that line, which makes it stand out even more compared to the rest of the song.
Bo Burnham deserves to be the next Joker. He's got the laugh down pat, he's got the social commentary, he's worn clown makeup before.
He's gotta get in line behind Willem Dafoe, but other than that yes.
Nah its gypsy crusader
And he does live in a society
I get more of a Riddler vibe from Bo
@@ReFoxBlue Either or would be badass.
I love that you backtrack 5 seconds anytime you unpause so that you don’t ruin continuity. React videos that pause and just recontinue grind my gears because they miss stuff!
Edit:typos
I loved that too. It was a nice change from the break and continue that other reactors do.
He is so talented.
It's a curse to have a mind like his. I am grateful for his output. I mourn what it costs him.
Bo started as a UA-camr in his room when he was a teenager. His stuff can be kind of controversial, but it's all designed to make you think. Best way to go into his material is to not take anything at face value. I really recommend his Kanye rant, Left brain right brain, What's funny, Lower your expectations, and Haikus/Sonnet/Shakespeare
I suggest Bo Burnham - Art is Dead
or Bo Burnham - From God's Perspective
I have been watching Bo since he was a 17 year old kid on UA-cam and love everything he does.
Yessss. Those are definitely favourites of mine
@@bbluekyanite Thirded. "From God's Perspective" is... important.
sameee...been here since "I'm Bo Yo" and lemme tell you, it's been amazing to watch him mature into the incredible and mature artist he is now.
from gods perspective is great
My favorites in order:
1) Can't Handle This (Kanye Rant)
2) From God's Perspective
3) All Eyes on Me ( Art is Dead as an honorable mention)
I'll never forget how crazy the entire Inside special was. This song in particular was just a breathtaking commentary on our entire culture. What we believe in, what we accept, what we tolerate. A literal wizard of social commentary and probably the most exceptional comedian of all time.
I don’t think it’s an exaggeration to say he is one of the most unique artists we’ll ever come across in our lifetime. And I do use the term artist and not comedian because I feel like that limits him
As a mentally ill person, I was scared to watch this special because I heard how impactful it is. So, it's been nice watching these reactions with you! Thank you for giving me some pseudo bravery. If you'd like to watch one of his older specials "From God's Perspective" was phenomenal
He started at 16 on UA-cam! He grew up, grew famous by his online presence. Gifted, intelligent, introspective, and a VERY clever wordsmith. If you watch his shows in order, you will see the progression. Some of it will break your heart as you realize how much you find your own experiences mirroring his; not the specific experience per se as much as relating to his reaction to and subsequent artisic expression of his performance as he progresses through the work.
And while he took a break from performing, he directed a special for Chris Rock and another comedian, created a series for MTV, wrote, cast, and directed a movie.
THEN there was INSIDE, during which he turned 30.
THIRTY, man.
Cliff, I am twice his age. My SON turned me onto his work - and even in the teenage-male-offensive earlier stuff you can still see where he was heading, and how it all ended up where is is now, and why the trajectory of his work, even after having spent half his life entertaining us, is still just climbing. He is changing the conversations by showing us, with his own raw vulnerabilities, that we need to find a way to deal with our own. He lets us know that he gets us bc in many ways he IS a reflection of us. He even says that maybe one day it'll be him on the couch and us on his screen...and I personally cannot wait to see if, and how, people will respond to his request.
(Just discovered you this week. Subbed, liked, gonna go explore your channel now.)
Hi 70 years old fan here. I'm excited to see a person close to my age. Bo for everyone.
He is incredible. I was watching him fall apart years ago. His last special was traumatic for anyone who could see through his veneer. It is called Make Happy and it is hilarious, but watch closely and you will see the moment when he couldn't hide it anymore. He got very popular very fast and very young.
Casual watchers watch Can't Handle This "oh wow that lighting is cool, nice Kanye style"
Bo Burnham fans watch Can't Handle This "omg is he ok"
Bo is one of the most important artists of our time. Period. Full stop.
Yeah, this song's lyics have some speed bumps. That's intentional, because that's the internet at its core. A lot of people REALLY underestimate words like 'everything' when it comes to statements like this song.
"Could I interest you in everything, all of the time? A little bit of everything, all of the time? Apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime; anything and everything, all of the time!"
This line is actual genius, I've never heard the internet summed up so well in so few words.
True especially the boredom is a crime since when you're on the Internet you still end up being bored wich makes you question what you're doing making you feel guilty yet so lost...
I love how the camera works throughout the song. In the beginning it’s slowly zooming in as Bo introduces you to the Internet and makes his sales pitch until eventually the camera starts cutting around like the pitch has gone out of control and then it slows down. The camera steadily zooms out as Bo recounts the watcher’s history with the Internet. After this, Bo laughs manically, showing the Internet’s “true face” as something evil. The camera zooms back in and the background lights up chaotically. The Internet is inescapable now. It draws you in and you can’t escape. That is the genius of Bo Burnham
"That was the fastest 4 minutes of my life" It was 9 😂
It felt like 2 minutes
That’s what she said!
I see Bo as a direct spiritual descendant of Tom Lehrer, he's been doing what Bo is doing now all the way in the 50s and 60s, highly suggest checking him out!
Oooooh, this is so true! The kind of serious/humorous/grotesque mix is so very interesting from them both :D
I do get a "we'll all go together when we go" vibe from this.
"Oh Bo" is a good example of Burnham doing hip hop.
Words words words
I love encountering people who've never heard of Bo and jump right into the deep end with Inside...
It's akin to watching people think they can master a sport in a weekend. I've been following Bo for a decade and a half, so the shock value is sort of expected at this point.
Just wanted to add that the line "your time is now, your inside's out" is a callback to the theme "Inside", but used in a different way. The idea of "inside" is threaded throughout the show, whether talking about physically being inside a room/house, but also "inside" of us. People raised in the age of information have been conditioned to metaphorically put what is inside their heads out into the world via the internet. They say everything they're thinking. Oversharing is the new intimacy. I've watched a lot of reaction videos to the songs in the show, and I haven't seen anyone point out yet how he creatively plays with the concept of "inside", both in a physical sense and in a figurative sense.
That’s such a cool analysis! I’ve never noticed that before 😳
To be fair a lot of these reactions are watching the songs without the context of the entire musical, if you do then it becomes a lot more apparent.
I've always imagined the character he portrays in the song as one of those carnival barkers beckoning you to enter the Hall of Mirrors. The mirrors reflect every human desire, from the wholesome and tame to the perverse and profane.
At the end, the mask comes off as he maniacally cackles at you because he knows that you the listener took the bait and now he's reeled you in, and you can now never escape no matter how much you want to.
Y'know when there is like the right amount of talking in between scenes? Yeah you have that. I genuinely enjoyed this. Thank you. Yup I subscribed and hit the bell. Also, can't wait for you to react to more of Bo.
Thisss. I don't mind pauses at all but some reactors talk waaay too long. This guy had it exactly right
He didn’t speak too long in between, which is great, but he did paused a lot just to :O and in between jokes interrupting the flow of them.
That predatory and disdainful "you..." gives me chills every time
You should react to “Words Words Words”. It is a song that is just a bunch on plays on words and double entendres
Yeah for sure! Cliff is really good at dissecting double entendres, would love to see him go crazy over a song full of them!
Can't handle this right now HAS to be next
But please do old Bo songs, they are super lyrical, songs like "I'm Bo Yo" "words words words" and anything from that time period 2009ish
Can't handle this is top tier. Bravery like nothing else, to not only admit to mental illness, but elaborate as to what he's feeling with such detail and almost makes you feel bad for watching it. It really humanizes him and makes you realize how he's actually feeling up there. It really ties in with "Put your hands up" from Inside. How he loves the attention, but pray for him because that fame is still mentally torturing him.
Him: “Do NOT skip my intro!”
Me: 😳🙌🏻 Ok! Ok sir! I won’t!
May I suggest Tim Minchin, if you're liking Bo's piano. He's a big influence on Bo's career. My top picks would be Confessions, Rock N' Roll Nerd and Thank You God, if you're not religious. If you wanna avoid copyright infringement, you can watch them on his official YT
OMG, yes Tim is hillarious.
Prejudice is my favorite from Tim.
Inflatable You!!!!! I can’t listen to Welcome to the Internet without thinking of Tim Minchin’s song
This special has been nominated for 6 emmys.
Funny thing is this is Bo Burnham trying not to be offensive. His early stuff like The Perfect Woman and New Math was extremely offensive (he has a song in Inside addressing this).
Thankfully he's apologised and learned from it. I'm really happy to see him be an overall great person in interviews.
Offensive humor is fine. Not liking it is fine. Wanting people to apologize for their offensive humor is not.
@@lordofthemehmehs when they are offensive just for the sake of being offensive AND they broach certain topics they should apologize for it, full stop.
@@Azraeladonis488 if it's a joke it's a joke. FulL sToP.!!1111 jokes shouldn't be taken seriously because they are jokes. Humor is subjective
@@lordofthemehmehs I hear that, but what actual bigots tend to do is just use the disguise of “jokes” to hide their genuine bigotry so it gets kinda hard to differentiate yknow
Watching this through your eyes, Cliff... Bo is a complete headfuck the first time you watch any of his stuff but he's one of the best addictions to have! He's one of the most intelligent and articulate comedians I've ever seen and is on a par with Bill Hicks, George Carlin, Robin Williams and Billy Connolly with his comedy, but his creativity even surpasses theirs.
2 years still hits hard
Your reactions make it even better man got me in tears
I’ve loved this guy since he first came on UA-cam. He’s such a genius!! Never get tired of his music.
Totally agree with watching Bo's specials in chronological order - it makes "Inside" even more devastating. As part of that timeline, I'd include the first episode of season 2 of "The Green Room with Paul Provenza" from 2011 (there's at least one person who has uploaded the full episode, it was originally on Showtime).
Bo didn't come up through standup the way the others did, starting first as a YT content creator, but he totally and completely holds his own against comedy veterans Ray Romano, Gary Shandling, Marc Maron, and Judd Apatow. Total sausage fest for the lack of women, but still an impressive episode.
Ohhhh this will be a fun trip!!! You gotta react to more of his stuff ❤️ i love people finding Bo!
Things I would recommend watching from him:
-) Rant
-) Art is dead
-) Perspective of god
Good list
Add to that: Sad, How The World Works, Andy the Frog, Country Song, or Kill Yourself
I’d watch his earlier Netflix specials before watching Inside.
Without making any comparisons between the two, the one he reminds me of is Tim Minchin in that they combine sharp wits with great musical proficiency. If you haven't heard Tim Minchin I would recommend checking out "Prejudice" by him. A personal favorite is F# though, but it can be painful to listen to for some people. A more recent one is I'll Take Lonely Tonight.
This masterpiece of a song was released exactly one year! I love Bo and he deserves all the likes he got!
It makes me so happy to see you liking and interested in Bo's content. I've been a big fan of musical comedy ever since I was really young. My older cousin showed me Weird Al when I was in like 4th or 5th grade and fell in love with the genre ever since. Glad you're reacting to and checking out his work! Much love AOD
"I need go watch this guys specials". Make sure you have your therapist on speed dial for Inside.
I love watching someone experience Bo for the first time. He’ll blow your mind. It’s also super interesting watching you essentially be introduced backwards. If you want to continue to react to his work in reverse I’d go with “are you happy” and then “nerds” then “ from gods perspective “ and WAY WAY back to “ bo yo”
Bo is a genius. He is so smart, musically talented. His contend addictive. I love it so much. You should react to his standup but do it in order, you don't get the whole picture if you don't see it in order. Part for part is awesome, but in order it's pure art.
his Inside movie is basically - The Internet: The Movie. Without kittens once! That is a big feat in my book.
It starts off really light and a bit cheery, and just slowly becomes a little more devious and sinister as the camera slowly pans in on him. Then the camera angles start changing and he start listing all of the bad things you can do.
When he slows down, one of the lines that gets me is: "The time is now, your insides out, honey how you grew".
"your insides out": people share their most intimate personal feelings on the internet, and large corporations can see all of it.
"honey how you grew": gen z (and now gen alpha) grew up with the internet; they've always had it. These massive corporations on the internet have literally watched these people grow up. From their parents posting pictures of them most of their lives, to getting their 1st phone at a super young age (using the I-pad at 2 like Bo says in the song) and sharing everything on social media.
Then he says: "it was always the plan, to put the world in your hand". Your phone is connected to the internet, and a "world" of info is on the internet. Now people cant put it down.
Then, the evil laugh comes in and you can see just how "evil" it really is.
You have such a sweet laugh haha. Loved the video! It's always cool to see people watching Bo's work and hearing their thoughts on it! There's so many ways to interpret and listen to the lyrics :)
That special is a damn masterpiece
i want to see you put up a reaction video AFTER watching the whole thing because i've watched it 3 times now and i'm still not sure what exactly it made me feel. As someone with depression and anxiety this special hit me in a certain way and it's a masterpiece that should win all kinds of awards this year.
I will ALWAYS click for Bo. So happy you’re gonna get more into him! I like to watch this particular one in 4D. Which I can only do because I have the exact same projector hah
Been a fan of Bo's for over ten years now. I love seeing someone discover his genius for the first time
love to see ppl discover Bo, been his cheerleader for 10yrs.
This comedy special is probably my favorite special I’ve seen.
Im so happy that, this guy has the same amazement that I had when I hear his songs for the first time. Bo doesnt just make comedy, his songs have messages, big messages that give a sort of balance to the actual comedy side of it. I think Bo is a musical genius, his lyrics, the way he plays the piano, and the persona he puts up on stage while performing is really incredible.
I'm going to watch every Bo Burnham reaction video you do and enjoying every one. mad support for you.
People are really out here having entire slumber parties on Bo.

Could you react to Kanye Rant (Can't Handle This Right Now) by Bo
It is INCREDIBLE
Just subbed man. I dig something about your energy. Real and genuine. Keep doing you’re thing man. Best of luck.
Just found this channel, great job dude!
I found this channel with your Bo Burnham reactions, but running through your playlists, you have done not only the NF journey, but YOU HAVE WATCHED KNOX'S MUSIC?! omg, this channel is my next obsession
In this day and age, this song is so thought provoking. And as you think about it you realize just how terrifying it is too.
Dude! Watch Inside and then make a video essay about it. I’d watch that in a heartbeat. Great reaction video!
my second video watching you! (first was "all eyes on me") I love the way you handle these reaction videos. all of your input is to the point and you rewind (!!!) 5 sec after you pause to talk. makes everything go so much smoother and feels like youre really getting everything you can out of your first listen. defn hit that subscribe and am going to watch more burnham reactions. this netflix special is really the best performing art piece in 2021 imo and theres nothing else that comes close. love your input to all of this! hope you continue to see success :)
Great reaction, it's always awesome seeing people discover Bo for the first time! :D I'm sure people will recommend a ton of songs/skits of his. I'd definitely go with Can't Handle This, Left Brain Right Brain, From God's Perspective, Art Is Dead, and Rant (and all of his other songs, of course).
I started watching Bo Burnham about 10 years ago. He is very musically inclined. When he was younger he really enjoyed doing musical comedy. Where he would make songs that are comedic and also have a very good amount of puns. He is an amazing and talented person.
You have gotta check out "5 Years" . I'm still rolling around on the floor laughing!!!
THE EYES, THE EYES THIS GUY GETS WITH ALMOST EACH LINE ARE AMAZING
YEAH DUDE! Welcome to the Bo Journey, I'm just about his age and remember watching his first youtube stuff when I was in highschool. The whole special 'Inside' was definitely super relatable for me. He's the master of mixing comedy, music, and hard hitting topics into the same song.
bro you gotta watch everything! He truly is a genius! :D
Thank you for doing this
THIS is the reaction I needed! MIne was very similar the first time I watched this.
The top songs you should react to from Bo is imo:
art is dead
we think we know you
can't handle this
Loved the reaction!
If you do instrumental stuff, Trifonic is really interesting. His Ninth Wave album is crazy. I would love a reaction to the title track, because he does some stuff in that song (and many of his others) that I've never heard before, and really inspired some of the stuff I do in my music. He likes to cut up samples in a really precise, but chaotic-feeling way.
Bo is a Genius !! period
You need to do "How the World Works". It's incredibly dissonant with how upbeat it sounds and how dark it actually is.
Bo's entire special is a roller coaster and astounding to watch and hear
I love watching people discover him.
Great reaction dude. Top notch awareness.
Glad you like him man, would love to see you react to more of his stuff! Definitely watch "Inside" , his best work I think. His Kayne- "Can't Handle This" is really good.
Can't handle this right now is absolutely stunning especially in the context of his life at the time. After that show he took a long hiatus from performing for his mental health and the song is something else.
"don't skip the intro" is a reminder that everyone needs imo
His reaction to being overwhelmed was exactly the point. Love it.
Oh HELL yea. Obligatory "Welcome to the rabbit hole" comment :D great channel btw dude.
Yeah bro that face you made after he hit that F sharp was THE EXACT mirror image of how my face went. lucid/vivid
"See, this is where I say "Oh no." "
*litterally 15 seconds later*
"Oh no..."
I love that this song just is funny and deep going at the same time
i already suggested it in the other bo burnham video but his song "rant" is one pf his best songs and deserves more attention.
Awesome! Thanks ❤️ Much Love! #Hangovergang #AOD
Cool videos keep it up man
hey i caught the intro and you got a sub from someone who is EXCITED for this series
would love to see you react to a few different songs from each special!!! thatd be a cool video :)
Hey i just started watching your reactions and i love it an another good bo song is left brain right brain
dude is a comedical
genius
