The last line “so that’s why, she did it.”
He’s saying that’s why the chicken crossed the road. To get to the other side. Something all of us have known forever. Something we have always thought was pointless and lame. But now when you think about it, it gives it perspective. Because Bo is too smart for us and we don’t deserve him.
the song is very similar to a bit by dave chappelle called "the impossible punchline" you'd prolly enjoy as well.
i mean its not that impressive hes cool but hes still a hollywood elite
@@kjo1849 The idea that nothing impressive could ever be done by someone who comes from a privileged upbringing is brainless.
@@kjo1849 How is he a Hollywood Elite?
“We ought to believe that she got to the other side.”
adds so much to “so long, goodbye. I’ll see you when I see you. You can pick the street. I’ll meet you on the other side.”
Holy shit. Thank you for connecting those lines of lyrics together. Beautiful.
Dude wait this is actually so incredible thank you for this comment
ahh wow yeah
I was waiting for this one, only bo can make me cry with a why did the chicken cross the road song
Glad to hear I am not the only person who cried!
For real I was bawling my fuckin eyes out
"Her husband's screams" for the chicken would be a rooster, which wakes us all with his screams.
I'd cross the road too if my spouse woke me up every morning by screaming.
Dan-
A "why did the chicken cross the road? to get to the other side" joke treated with seriousness and coloured with the observation that sometimes the thing you want most will hurt you.
It's my second time seeing this song now and the bar she checks left right left right left right hit me even harder. I don't know why this chicken song is hitting me so hard right in the feelings. His storytelling is just so amazing, showing that she really did everything to make sure she was safe. How can a song about the oldest joke in the world just hit me like this, is it only me?! Bo is just a legend. I am so late on a lot of his stuff.
My mental image of a chicken looking back and forth and back and forth.
Internet: “What are you gonna do next Bo?”
Bo: “I’m gonna release a special of only outtakes that’ll still be better than most comedy sets. At the end I’ll make everyone cry about why the chicken crossed the road.”
The Internet: “Great, now kfc makes me depressed.”
Bo: “It should have already done that.”
Internet: “That’s fair. Whelp, time to go back to thinking about how many cities we would burn to the ground if anything happened to you.”
The whole Outtakes special is on his UA-cam page!! The Inside deluxe album should be on all streaming platforms!
Love your channel man, keep up the great work
I've been a stay at home mom going on 18 yrs now. I can totally relate to this song. It was my favorite song from his Outakes and I'm so glad you reacted to it. Also that you took it seriously. I agree it's beautiful. Thank you so much.
I am as well, 6 years in. I get very stir crazy and Bo and his songs like this always help
Honestly, the first time heard this song I teared up. It is beautiful and takes the most basic joke and turns it into a serious look at how some people live. So afraid of getting away from the things they hate that they never try to cross that road.
I felt like I got Rickrolled when he first mentioned crossing the road. I might have screamed at the tv and laughed hysterically when I realized this was “Why did the chicken cross the road?” as an insanely serious, dramatic song.
Not sure if it's been mentioned, but this was originally going to be the last song on the album/special instead of goodbye. Bo ties in the lyrics the chicken getting to the other side with the opening of goodbye: "You can pick the street I will meet you on the other side." Thanks as always Cliff.
I love how he took something as simple as a ‘why did the chicken cross the road?’ joke and extrapolates it into a deep philosophical lesson. Don’t be happy with mediocrity, don’t stand idly by while life passes you by. Don’t sit in comfort and routine because you are content, the unknown is where we find who we are and become the captains of our own ships rather than allowing the ocean of life to drag us around.
We are all going to die, don’t let the fear of failure or mortality rule your existence and stunt your potential.
You can be great, more than you know, trust me friends.
I always thought this was a song about a woman in a toxic relationship and escapes and then is hit by life which is the road where she can see the wealth “across the road” but she has to take the risk of life by crossing that path and taking the risk to become who she wants to be
It kind of is. It’s a double meaning but in the end about the chicken (at the same time leaving a relationship)
I think of how my first hubby passed.
He lost the battle with depression and was found in his car after going missing.
He was a medium (able to pay the bills with it) successful comedian. His last words to me were "see you on the other side".
💙
(If you struggle with depression, please, reach out. You may feel like you don't want to live. But maybe you just really don't want to live like this?
Maybe others can help you find another way to change the story you are in. Sending some hope & strength your way)
I truly believe Bo is a genius and can literally create any form of media. He can be funny, introspective, and depressing all at once
Such a beautiful song !!!!This piano killing me!!!👌Have a great day Cliff.
I love your analysis that never feels overdone or dramatic. Literally my fave reactions to any of Bo’s stuff.
Dreams of walking to Memphis, becoming a dentist"
😂 The phrase "rare as hen's teeth". Chickens do not have teeth. So she dreams of doing something absurd or filling a meaningless need.
Yes man!! I’m so happy you’re doing these songs! Awesome reaction as always keep up the good work!
Bo means a lot to me he saved my life after my best freind died when we were 9
I’m sorry for your loss my friend. I truly believe we seen them again. I’m not religious at all either. We just have to be thankful we had them when we did 🙏 ❤️
Dude you gotta see the whole outtake it’s like INSIDE pt2! You’ll love it hope you’ll react to it here! Keep enjoying what you do because it’s great!
i absolutely love ur bo burnham reactions! didn’t realise i hadnt already subscribed!!!
This is such a beautiful song, even without the lyrics. Add in the lyrics and it is just spectacular. I would like to look at the hopeful ending as what happened rather than the chicken getting squashed along with her dreams. 3:38 makes me get really emotional with what he does with the melody. Thank you for your reaction to this one!
I listened to this i believe yesterday and loved it, but today my grandpa died so this just hits a bit different now.
And i agree with you, Bo is just an amazing artist/musician who decided to put a bit of humor into everything he creates.
I can’t even express how elated I was to see one of the new Bo’s, but then ALSO Theo’s Darryl Strawberry TINH!
If you wanna do another "this is not happening" check out Jim Brewer's about a b-mb threat at the sears he worked at in the 1980's...
Bo Burnham is beautiful
truly
Agreed
Oh god! Life is hard right now and I’m just watching to cry. ❤️🇮🇪
Tou could write a thesis on this song. How it ties into identity, greener grasses, and most importantly how everything you dreamed of can bring you the most pain. Wild for essentially a super long chicken crossed the road joke.
Damn what beautiful piano 🎹
The musical expression is insane for a song about 🐔
Absolutely heartbreaking. Wow wow wow.😢😢
Need that Microwave Popcorn reaction though
Coming soon 🙏
This is great an the answer to the age old question...
Great, now I'm having an existential crisis from a song about a chicken. How does he do this to us?! Awesome reaction as always.
If you need a chicken song to make you laugh, check out Voiceplay's "The Chicken Song'
And just an FYI to anyone reading this, he really will respond if you message him; and it won't be a copy and paste response. He's one of the rare ones who, when he says he loves his community, actually means it. So if you need someone to talk to, he really will respond. ::steps down off soap box::
Seriously though, thank you for all you do!
Thanks again Cliff x
everybody sho has ever listened to one of bo's songs has fallen in love with his voice and creativity
Great reaction
I’ll play this with him on July 19th, 2023 earlier in the day. I’ll finally be able to see him!
It's a metaphor for overcoming fear while also considering those who you left behind as they can only postulate what your situation is.
Since this was released I have cried to a song about a chicken more times than I like to admit...
Beautiful and funny
thank you
Leave it Bo to reinvent the oldest joke in the book.
This song: James Taylor + Robin Williams. No one else can do that.
Living in the future is short but sounds soo good
Not sure how heavily copyrighted they are, but you should check out Flight of The Conchords if possible.
I’d recommend “Issues(Think About It)”
Now we know the answer to the age old question.
will it sushi?
When I watched the outtakes I kept seeing people in the comments saying the chicken song made them cry and they didn’t think it would.
So my dumbass gets to the chicken song and I’m thinking, no way am I gonna choke up over a chicken song.
And what did I do? Get all choked up at the end of the song 😅😭
I almost cried about a chicken song ffs
Hey why did the chicken cross the road?
I really just think it's a silly way of answering why did the chicken cross the road induced by months of being alone
I cant list the name of the song because youtube thinks I am trying to bully you. But it is kill ______________, he makes funny of Katy Perry Songs
There is a very real risk of being flattened in life when you're trying to get to a better place. Agoraphobia is a very reasonable fear crossing that road. I guess that chicken got a book on getting better; hand delivered by a drone.
His outtake special doesn’t have any copyright, so you can use the opaque video if you’d like!
Different kind of crying.
Bro you gotta check out 1985
Hey cliff could you possibly check out Jon Bellinion adult swim or let’s begain
I’m working towards them. I have to be very careful with copyright issues at the moment but I got you 🙏
Ain’t no prob g sounds good
UA-cam music it's there
I always have a hard time watching reaction videos that add almost nothing to any conversation about the art they are presenting. Not a tuber myself so I'm not familiar with community guidelines on fair use, but imo you should add more depth to your opinion or reaction other than saying "wow, Bo that was amazing." Just some feedback
Additionally you should watch the actual Netflix special "Inside" and reflect on his bit about reaction videos.
This must be the only video you have watched of mine. I actually get yelled at for pausing too much. I mean literal death threats because I’m breaking down each line. If a song has completely taken me over and I want to hear it all together (like this), I refrain from pausing. It was beautifully done.
