This is basically a villain monologue where the villain can comfortably tell you exactly what he is doing because he already won and you are already trapped in his scheme.
@@wallywest2360Yeah, it's crazy how many people I've seen on the internet who don't even think he was the villain. The end never justified the means, in my opinion, and I don't think they were ever supposed to seen justified.
Bo Burnham is seriously one of the most talented artists of all time. His music is super deep and super funny at the same time. And there’s absolutely no way to put him into one box. Never clicked so fast in my life.
@@brittreacts If you like this guy, there was another guy who was similar, but pre-synthesizer. His name is Tom Lehrer. I have three recommendations of songs that I think compare to Bo's work: 1. So Long, Mom 2. Poisoning Pigeons in the Park 3. The Masochism Tango If you want something a little more...educational...4. The Elements You're welcome, I'm sure. - "Elderly Man River"
1:35 you’re correct! This effect is actually called “ dark carnival. “ It’s a very spooky, yet silly type of effect used in some songs. Bo should definitely do more, it’s amazing.
Its funny how Rule 34 is the only one anyone remembers... Rules 1-33 also exists. (Tho´reddit, or maybe 4chan, reviced it in the late 00s to "Rule 1: Ignore rules 2-33" but the rest are still intacts... mostly) And I think it goes all the way to like 70 or something. I dont remember all of them and some are just silly but two really well knowns ones are #31 "Tits or GTFO" #32 "Pic or it didnt happen" Also #35 is "If no porn is found, its currently being made" And I dont remember what number but "Everything is SOMEONES fetish" is also one. The one I never believed in at all was "If you look long enough you WILL find your mom naked". That might actually be true for the younger millennials or Zoomers... But my mom died in the 90s so it would be virtually impossible for ANY pics of her being on the internet unless I uploaded them, so... that ones kinda inaccurate. The others ranges from unlikely but possible to highly probable.
I ordered this special on vinyl the other day can't wait for it to come in. Bo is so so awesome. You'd probably love a lot of his stuff. Much love from Michigan
I suggest any and everything of "Bo". He has a simple formula for his songs. First, he pulls you in with the whimsy fun and goofy premise. Second, He ropes you in with clever turns to the phrasing. Last, while you are trying to keep up, he hits you with something real. After that, you just go hmmm...WTF?? That was awesome.
Yeah it's very effective, preaching, but in a fun way so you actually listen and so many twists and turns like he manages to say a lot and make many points in very few words, so many layers!!! And like here, form is dictated by function, the Internet is everything the good and the bad, overwhelming as hell, way to fast, to much and giving you whiplash..... Apathy is a tragedy, you are so drowning in bad news beside compleatly meaningless stuff, so you do not even have the capacity to engage and have empathy for anything of it.... It numbs you, desensitises .... So he gets faster faster faster, jumps randomly between topics so you have no way to really react to anything of it
Always so many layers with Bo - comedy and tragedy and just enough of the truth to unsettle you from your comfortable little rut, all wrapped up in genuine musical talent. He'll entertain you, but make you think.
I'm stuck right in the middle of both of the generations he's talking about. Born in Jan 1997, so a bit too young to remember the internet pre-9/11, but definitely too old to have grown up with iPads.
the sidekick was the shit. then they came out with the g1 google phone and blew all of our minds, my old sidekick scroll ball used to always have crap in it and barely work. also the one computer in the house hit home too, taking turns with my sisters, wed get like an hour a night. and downloading music overnight was a thing... also lets not forget when your on AIM, hear that door open, your friends online!!!! then suddenly, your mom picks the phone up and you get disconnected..
I can recommend How The World Works as another reaction. It's from the same special. A lot of people will recommend Kanye Rant, but that's better once you're more familiar with his stuff.
Bo and Tim Minchin are my two favorite current obsessions, and you've now reacted to both, so...new sub lol. By the way, Bo cites Tim as a major influence on him when he was starting out. Enjoy your reactions.
Proud owner of a Nokia brick Tractphone that I kept in my glovebox when I was in college in '03. I loved it because it was only for emergencies. I also had a phone card in my wallet to use to do long distance calls home from pay phones. I miss those days.
I literally know a girl from my high school days that drives a really nice car with no job. I asked her if she’s a digital nomad, she said with a straight face “no I sell feet pics” Here I am working 100+ hours 🤣 good for her though. She’s been buying me lunch so no complaints here.
In the 90s we had local networks entangling entire houses. And some of them had the Internet. Time for cartoons, re-voices of the Matrix with cool music. Now. The Internet is the only thing in my country that hasn’t been turned off. The government has already seized the radio (the last truthful radio station was closed a year ago), television is in their pocket. They are trying to shut down the Internet, but they don’t know how to do it without killing the banking system. Gone are the days when you needed a VPN to watch anime and blocked movies. It is for viewing military maps and viewing alternative opinions. Every night you sit by the window Moving the stars Every night you can't sleep It's all so serious I remember, I know The wind is in your hands An artificial paradise You're delirious in your dreams Press the button and you will get the result And your dream will come true! Press the button, but why aren't you happy? There's nothing left for you to strive for (group Technology, similar in sound to Depish Mod, song 1991, there is a rhyme, in Russian)
Bo’s awesome. His whole catalogue is legit Fire. You’ve gotta peep the Kanye Rant and All eyes on me next! His special ‘INSIDE’ won him 3 Emmy’s and a Grammy. It’s an incredible piece of art. Even if you don’t react to it it’s still worth watching in its entirety. Other Bo songs to react to for your consideration: From Gods Perspective Art is dead Rant. Repeat stuff Words words words Straight White Male Pandering Comedy White Womans Instagram That Funny Feeling The Chicken Keep ‘em comin! Cheers
This is fantastic... You're such a great reactor with your observations on the vibes its giving off in the beginning. Your thoughts are totally dialed in and nuanced and original. I love this!
Loved this video! Please, please do more Bo. He's an absolute genius of a tortured artist. I'm sure someone in the comments already told you this, but he produced that entire video by himself in a single room. He set up all the shots, he did the music of course, he edited and produced it, all by himself. He's truly amazing. His social commentary is absolutely on point. Please do more!
I love how he perfectly describes the internet in a happy way, but very obviously very evil. To the point of making me feel like a victim of the internet just for being here watching the video. Bo Burnham is amazing at his job.
“It did all the things we designed it to do. Now look at you”. Trapped, enslaved by the drugs in your brain. Forced drugging that gets you addicted. We’re all slaves of the internet already. *Bo’s evil laughter*
"A bunch of colored pencil drawings..." Britt: "OH!, Is that a thing?" ...probably? I wouldn't suggest searching for it, but if it wasn't before, it probably is now.
I had an account on Bolt when I was in high school... 🤣 I loved it though! But at the beginning I always think of a carnival barker. The chaotic energy of it is PERFECTION! And yeah, that definitely has those Willy Wonka from the 70s vibes.
So I have a specific niche on UA-cam. I always find reactors who are discovering Bo Burnham, Tim Minchin, Tenacious D, Weird Al, or Lonely Island. I truly appreciate your reaction.
My grandma gave my mom our first computer, and a disk for like 3 months free AOL. I was like 15 and immediately looked up porn and spent the rest of the day trying to delete it from the history. Plus the good ole days of ASL in some random chatroom.
I smell a theatre background ;) Not insinuating your reactions are scripted acts or disingenuous, just that your mannerisms and energy give off that vibe. Glad to have found you and excited to see where you go.
React to "All eyes on me" by bo burnham, would love to see your reaction to that song! every reaction I have seen of that song is special because it is such a personal or maybe intimate song about himself I think. Anyway! React to it, you'll love it I hope!
You didn't get any Devil tempting you vibe with the increasing pressure on the phrase 'interest you in everything'. First time I heard this, the carnival music with the dark overtones from the items he was searching, it always reminded me of the classic imagery for the Devil. Just my take on it.
Your Jack-in-the-Box thought is spot on 🎯 🔥 but I hope you watched again and focused on what he said in the slow part (you seemed to miss it because you had to give us attention :)
This is basically a villain monologue where the villain can comfortably tell you exactly what he is doing because he already won and you are already trapped in his scheme.
Pretty much
Ozymandius at the end of Watchmen
He basically makes me think of an internet version of Something Wicked This Way Comes.
That psychotic Joker laugh.
@@wallywest2360Yeah, it's crazy how many people I've seen on the internet who don't even think he was the villain. The end never justified the means, in my opinion, and I don't think they were ever supposed to seen justified.

What a talent!!
Imagine if George Carlin and Robin Williams had a freakishly tall and skinny child who grew up with UA-cam and you have Bo Burnham.
A genius musician and comedian and philosopher.

His Kanye Rant is absolutely amazing
Ohhhhh I need to see that!!!
It's epic, and deep.. it was his last performance before disappearing for a while.
@@brittreacts if you do, you should also watch All Eyes on Me right after that. It's pretty much the sequel after he disappeared for 5 years
Doesnt really stand up too well anymore now that kanye is exposed as a hopeless racist lol. Fame doesnt do that to you.
@@nullakjg767 you sound really vaccinated.
The entire Inside special is amazing. He'll make you go from laughing to crying in the matter of minutes
Rule 34 ALWAYS applies: If it exists, there IS porn of it.
Welcome to the internet :P
Yep. Finding stop-motion furniture porn like 15 years ago cemented it for me 😂😂
Its funny how Rule 34 is the only one anyone remembers...
Rules 1-33 also exists.
(Tho´reddit, or maybe 4chan, reviced it in the late 00s to "Rule 1: Ignore rules 2-33" but the rest are still intacts... mostly)
And I think it goes all the way to like 70 or something.
I dont remember all of them and some are just silly but two really well knowns ones are
#31 "Tits or GTFO"
#32 "Pic or it didnt happen"
Also #35 is "If no porn is found, its currently being made"
And I dont remember what number but "Everything is SOMEONES fetish" is also one.

I love rule 34, but I live by rule 35. "If no porn is found, make it." 🤣

On vinyl!?! So cool!!!
Hi from Detroit
"It was always the plan, to put the world in your hand" The sinister truth behind that line... 😢
Seeing the horror on Reactor's faces when it starts picking up and the crazy piles on is always hilarious.
Bo Burnham is a rabbit hole. He's made great comedy and music in the over the last 10+ years.
I totally agree. My cousin turned me on to him just after Inside came out. It’s a rabbit hole that’s totally worth going down.
But his best stuff was more than 10 years ago.
I suggest any and everything of "Bo". He has a simple formula for his songs.
First, he pulls you in with the whimsy fun and goofy premise.
Second, He ropes you in with clever turns to the phrasing.

His tone in this song always reminds me of an evil carnival barker like from Pinocchio or something
It actually wasn't getting faster. It was the accuracy that was increasing.
The tempo 100% increases. It increases the chaotic feel. It's very much on purpose.
@@Hydraclone I was being facetious.
Bo is his own genre. If it had to have a name id call it cosmic humor. Its funny but often pretty profound at the same time.
No he isn't. Weird lie.
@@grabble7605how so?
I like that ^^
@@grabble7605Nice! Name another person with the same style as his from before him!
thank you on the Wonka reference! i was screaming that the whole time
Bo is INCREDIBLE!! His creativity is unmatched these days.
My favorite thing to watch on mushrooms is this special. It always slays.
the sidekick was the shit. then they came out with the g1 google phone and blew all of our minds, my old sidekick scroll ball used to always have crap in it and barely work. also the one computer in the house hit home too, taking turns with my sisters, wed get like an hour a night. and downloading music overnight was a thing... also lets not forget when your on AIM, hear that door open, your friends online!!!! then suddenly, your mom picks the phone up and you get disconnected..

Billy Strings, "Dust in a baggie" the one with him in the bedroom.
Unrelated, but brilliant.
I literally know a girl from my high school days that drives a really nice car with no job. I asked her if she’s a digital nomad, she said with a straight face “no I sell feet pics”

Every night you sit by the window
Moving the stars
Every night you can't sleep
It's all so serious
I remember, I know
The wind is in your hands
An artificial paradise
You're delirious in your dreams
Press the button and you will get the result
And your dream will come true!
Press the button, but why aren't you happy?
There's nothing left for you to strive for
(group Technology, similar in sound to Depish Mod, song 1991, there is a rhyme, in Russian)
The song becomes slow and calming because the internet wasnt so crazy and frantic at the start. XD
Bo’s awesome. His whole catalogue is legit Fire. You’ve gotta peep the Kanye Rant and All eyes on me next! His special ‘INSIDE’ won him 3 Emmy’s and a Grammy. It’s an incredible piece of art. Even if you don’t react to it it’s still worth watching in its entirety.
Other Bo songs to react to for your consideration:
From Gods Perspective
Art is dead
Rant.
Repeat stuff
Words words words
Straight White Male
Pandering
Comedy
White Womans Instagram
That Funny Feeling
The Chicken
Keep ‘em comin!

Kanye Rant before All Eyes on me.
To appreciate it more.
A World on Fire is the best song in my opinion
I grew up in the 90s so a gorgeous woman in a denim shirt? LORD help me.
Bo Burnham is the greatest. He makes u think unlike most today make u nothing.
This is fantastic... You're such a great reactor with your observations on the vibes its giving off in the beginning. Your thoughts are totally dialed in and nuanced and original. I love this!
3:46 I loved that moment!
Loved this video! Please, please do more Bo. He's an absolute genius of a tortured artist. I'm sure someone in the comments already told you this, but he produced that entire video by himself in a single room. He set up all the shots, he did the music of course, he edited and produced it, all by himself. He's truly amazing. His social commentary is absolutely on point. Please do more!
Playing sonic on the sidekick was the peak of of living
I love how he perfectly describes the internet in a happy way, but very obviously very evil. To the point of making me feel like a victim of the internet just for being here watching the video.
Bo Burnham is amazing at his job.
First time I heard it I apologized to my kids 😂🤣
💀
"I've never taken A shroom..." 😂 I 100% believe you. No judgement!
Bo Burnham really made the internet into a Disney villain
Right? It's Brilliant, brilliant, BRILLIANT! And all I want is to see someone fully animate it like a Disney Villain sequence.
Damn girl. If you remember AOL days and still look as good as you do.... Good job!
If you aren't familiar with it, Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen would be a fantastic pick to react to.
"Is that a thing?"
Fifty Shades of Gray began life as Twilight fanfiction so...
I’ve been having a really rough night and your reaction videos are helping a bit, so thank you
“It did all the things we designed it to do. Now look at you”.
Trapped, enslaved by the drugs in your brain. Forced drugging that gets you addicted. We’re all slaves of the internet already.
*Bo’s evil laughter*
The only thing you have to remenber is, apathy is a tragedy and boredom is a crime
"I've never taken a shroom..." said that seriously may be one of the greatest things I've ever heard
"A bunch of colored pencil drawings..." Britt: "OH!, Is that a thing?"
...probably? I wouldn't suggest searching for it, but if it wasn't before, it probably is now.
Leave it to Bo to make a Polka the song of our generation. Lol
ive been watching ur videos for like half an hour lmao i love ur reactions!!
DUDE AIM hahaha, nostalgia hits hard *dial-up sound plays*... "You've Got Mail"
You should watch the whole special Inside, and the follow up The Inside Outtakes. He is seriously amazing in how he produced this special.
I had an account on Bolt when I was in high school... 🤣 I loved it though!
But at the beginning I always think of a carnival barker. The chaotic energy of it is PERFECTION!
And yeah, that definitely has those Willy Wonka from the 70s vibes.
LOL the description of dial-up using the ONE computer and the ONE pohone l
Your energy is a vibe! I love your reactions.
I grew up during that same time. I wasn't fortunate enough to experience that stuff first hand. I had some friends though. 😂
JEFF was HERE too
So I have a specific niche on UA-cam. I always find reactors who are discovering Bo Burnham, Tim Minchin, Tenacious D, Weird Al, or Lonely Island. I truly appreciate your reaction.
I love bo burman
it's worth considering that what he's talking about? that's the STANDARD internet. then there's all the...Others... :)
Ah yes.. The classic sound of a 56K Dial-up modem logging you on the Internet.!
Spooky and creepy and all the things: Welcome to the internet!
Hollywood undead special edition sidekick with real obsidian accents.
Great idea I would love to see Bo Burnham in a black mirror episode
“I’ve never taken a shroom.”
The internet...more positives or negatives? I am not too sure, but as someone who has worked with young people for 30 years...i lean more negatives.
I HAD THAT T MOBILE SIDEKICK BEST BELIEVEEEEE
I still remember my AIM handle from 9th grade 😂
We love Bo 🖤

Next you should react to his song "Oh Bo" is Hillarious
Gen X remembers that time too. -Thespis618
"Obama sent the immigrants to vaccinate your kids" is to this day maybe my favorite line of his ever
Love bo burnham one of my favorites , nice reaction!
New fan of your reactions. ✌️❤️

Please more Bo Burnham, would love to see it. Loved the video!
This has nothing to do with the video but I still can't believe bo Burnham is 6'6
Really?!?

Gotta watch Rant by him!
gotta react to Bo Burnham - Oh Bo, you'll love it
Feet pics are going to be the dominant form of currency worldwide by 2030 at this rate.
feet pics have been a thing forever, but the memes have spread way more awareness
Everyone’s welcome…? Can I have you? Wrapped up for x-mas’? ;-)
I'd call this type of music vaudevillian
Oh, I’ll tell you it wasn’t reminiscent of that. I might be lying when I say it but, I said it.
you still call her by her AIM? that's fuckin' awesome, hehe. I still remember a few people's ICQ number...
More Burnham please!
as a millennial I feeel you I was on that msn messenger
You should do mushrooms 🍄.
aim names, holy shit. throw back.
