    It's so true how the internet has blurred everything together. You see something tragic and then there's a meme right below. We hardly have a chance to process emotions and so it all turns to be numb

      It makes me think of Instagram stories. It goes from social justice to “look at what I ate for lunch!” really fast. Makes the seriousness of issues seem insincere.

      Exactly. I'm not even entirely sure Bo knew what he had here, because this project clearly weighed on him organically throughout its production, but I'll be damned if there aren't so many subtle nuances in its craft that make it stand head and shoulders above any 'comedy special' in years, if not decades. In fact it's almost insulting to call it a comedy special. This is a feature length, one man virtuoso film that deserves every single award that's coming its way. I always thought Burnham was a smart and snappy performer, but this is visceral stuff that hits hard. I question if some will turn it off before the first 30 minutes or so are up not understanding where this thing is going, but all those people are missing the fuck out on what is right now the best film of the year.

    The switch in tempo and intonation from 4:05-4:20 briefly gives the song a seductive, almost burlesque-ish feeling. The phrase “could I interest you” also implies a kind of temptation of the listener-don’t you want this? Can’t I persuade you? And then, brilliantly, we switch to the most uptempo, chaotic moment of the song. Suddenly, the phrase doesn’t feel like a request anymore, but a demand, or even a redundancy-they already have us. The seduction worked. Genius writing on so many levels

    • @chickenspy1854
      @chickenspy1854 3 роки тому +114

      I actually interpreted it as a play on words. "The world is in your hands" takes on a different meaning when you realize that the entirety of the world's knowledge and content is literally in our hands in the form of a smart phone that is connected to the internet 24/7. This is what we'd call a Faustian Bargain, in which the meaning of the wish is intentionally misinterpreted for the worse (think a genie or a deal with the devil). It adds up in my mind because the song thematically has the vibe of the devil singing, in that he is offering temptations with a side of pure evil.
      I mean he literally lists out something great on the internet immediately followed by the polar opposite. As if he's saying, if you want the good you HAVE to take a bad. Also, this is like Hotel California and you can never leave. teehee

    • @chickenspy1854
      @chickenspy1854 3 роки тому +37

      I said it elsewhere, but I believe he is comparing the internet pre smart phone. The internet pre 99 was simple because you couldn't take it with you. We didn't have "everything all of the time" because we had to connect to the horrible sounds of dial up. But with the introduction of internet connected smart phones, it is literally impossible to get away from the internet. Even if you wanted to, chances are you'll get push notified of your desire to do so. And if you throw your phone into the ocean, people would be using live updated maps sent directly to their phones via satellite to find what they expect is your missing body because you were presumed dead the moment your friends and family realized you hadn't posted your opinion about a cancelled celebrity on Twitter.

The internet is full of things to keep us distracted and occupied, slowly chipping away at our attention spans and making us dependent. The truth is, we _are_ dependent now. A lot of people can’t function without the internet. So the internet, aka the villain, has won by making us dependent. If you really listen to some of the lyrics closely, like “Apathy’s a tragedy and boredom is a crime,” and “Mommy let you use her iPad, you were only two.” I feel like you can glean that message.

      He already does address a generation when the song slows down. The line about how it was before 9/11 and circa '99. The internet existed in its infancy so that's not "you," "you" are the ones that the world was waiting for to give everything into your hands. So seems like the song is basically for zoomers or anyone born/grew up with the developed internet.
      I think it also implies an identity connection between the internet and that generation. I sort-of fall into it sort-of dont, myself. Anyone who has seen the internet knows its pull, but its "for" the people who dont know anything else.

      I believe that comedians have replaced philosophers in our current culture as both look at society from the outside and make commentary on it. As such, I would call Inside a comedic, philosophical look at society during the phenomenon that was 2020. Sure there's comedy to be had with Bo, but I think it's his cultural commentary that's truly special. I'll probably be thinking about some of the ideas from Inside for years.

    I've listened to this song probably a dozen times, but this time was the one where I really noticed the subtle production things, in addition to his solo voice and the piano. The stars, then darkness, then swirling lights, then everything in the background. The way that plinking instrument came on top of the repeat of the chorus before the slow part. The way I could hear voices softly singing "anything and everything" when he re-enters the chorus after the slow part, the layering of the children's laughter and voices, then layering his own voice several times to harmonize with the melody before bringing it all back to stark acknowledgement with just his single voice for the last "all of the time"

      I love it because its such a great way to represent shifting perceptions on the internet. When it was first booting up it was seen as the harbinger of a new age of digital democracy. Only for the corporations to slowly get this strange new beast under its thumb. Something with great revolutionary potential that was folded back into the hands of the powerful. A new form of control, now the internet is an Orwellian nightmare, where ANY engagement is good engagement, and algorithms shape our brains and dictate what we see. On top of that we had no Idea what how this new tech would change peoples engagement with life. This massive shift in the way we communicate and live, without a philosophical frame work to navigate this new world. The laugh to me at least is the broken promise of the internet.
