Oh man finally somebody who emotionally gets the horror of this song and feels it
❤️
EXACTLY!!! Very little laughing, and the horror that creeps on her face when the message really kicks in. Powerful!
Yeah, most of the reactions I've seen to this are "Haha women's feet and racial slurs ! Ooh I like the colors on he ceiling !". This song actually fills me with existential dread and despair.
FR... every reaction s just like omg! did he said harry potter characters f*cking each other :o and thats so random xD
Please go down the Bo Burnham rabbit hole. I feel like you would actually get his humor more than a lot of people on the internet
❤️❤️❤️
I second this suggestion.
I third this suggestion.
1. start with bo-yo
2. then art is dead.
3. Then "can't handle this" kanye rant.
4. Then all eyes on me.
5. welcome to the internet.
6. white woman's instagram.
7. the chicken song.
That order of bo, is ultimate impact. very good.
@@geoffreystevens2916 it is crucial u listen to "cant handle this" before u listen to "all eyes on me", no spoilers, just trust
Finally, somebody who finds this to be much more than humorous.
❤️
another interesting thing that I think is significant, the SPEED of the song. It already starts off quick, but then goes faster and faster. Representing how time just escapes us and goes faster and faster the more we lose ourselves in the internet.
Until a stop, and then a "memory of the past" where he slows it down, where time wasn't so quickly lost. Only to "flashforward" back to today after his laugh and quickly pick up tempo again, only even more chaotic with the added reverb of his voice.
Bo did an amazing job with this.
Bo’s societal commentary is on a whole other level! Almost all of his songs (regardless of how funny) all have that dark, uncomfortable thematic undercurrent of something being very wrong with humanity.
You really can’t go wrong with his back catalogue, the whole thing is fire. A couple songs of note:
-From Gods Perspective
-Pandering
-Art is Dead
-Left Brain, Right Brain
-Straight White Male
Loved the reaction! Liked and subscribed for more Bo
Cheers!
Oh really?? Wow
he makes "a little bit of everything all of the time" sound like something you'd find in the Needful Things shop
How refreshing to see a reactor actually understand the main theme of the song instead of laughing at the face value of it. 2005 was a turning point for the internet (TH-cam started), and it's all been downhill from there.
as someone close in age to Bo Burnham, and as someone who was there to watch the internet grow from my childhood in the late 90s into what it is today, this song really hits so many notes and historical fact of the internet's age and cultural progression. almost every line he said in this song, I was there to witness first hand (yes, even THOSE lines, they were NOT jokes!), and that ending...
It feels like seeing a monster be created, and now we are the ones seeing a new generation grow up with all of this from the start, and like a devil's deal, many of them have sold their souls to it. I feel like that's what the final part of the song signifies, acting all sweet and nice about it being the plan to put the world in your hand... and then that diabolical laughter as it's accepted, in exchange for anything and everything, all of the time.
You should listen to "That Funny Feeling" from the same "Inside" special. Very on-point with his commentary on the feeling of stuckness between our technological innovations and increasing social isolation and friction.
Bo is kind of a niche name now he took a back seat from stage performances due to mental health issues but he’s probably the biggest comedic geniuses of all time if you can read between the lines.
You really should see the entire INSIDE special, which he wrote, filmed, performed, and edited by himself during COVID lockdowns. While it documents a very personal experience of his own relationship with the internet and the fame it brought him, it is also broad enough that it makes a serious impact on the viewers as related to their own experiences online and in the modern world as well.
Oh wow!!
@MaddyReactions you will not be disappointed but it is a heavy special. Also netflix is always very annoying w copyright just a heads up. But that said it's SO GOOD
The stand up program was done during the quarantine caused by Covid and is something very special. I have no idea how it feels when you watch it today, but at the time it captured a very special feeling, it was terrific. Bo is a very special artist, something like him doesn't happen often.
YES! Please do more Bo Burnham from this special! It's all sooo good.
❤️
I love Bo, all his stuff is good, but his whole Inside special is legit one of the best I've ever seen. It's funny, sad, depressing, somewhat horrifying, informative, and it really makes you think. It's the whole package. I believe he was either nominated for or won a Grammy for it.
Oh wow!!
bo's stuff never disappoint.
So good!
Bo was born in 1990 and I was born in ‘89. It’s such a bizarre place to be in, being part of the very last generation to remember life before the internet completely took over. It was a wild, wild west back then, in the early days of the internet. It has shaped us in ways that we may never fully understand.
His Kanye Rant/Chipotle "Can't Handle This Right Now" song is a beautiful masterpiece. Also, happy holidays to you and Seven! 🙏💕
❤️
Sorry that i have been offline a lot recently, glad to see you still discovering moderns of music and comedy and generally enjoying life.
Thanks Maddy! Hysterical and brutally true. I think in 20 years we’ll look back and say, How could we give iPhones to our children, with handheld access to internet 24/7 (those parents who think they control what their children do with phones are probably in for a shock-I was when the best kids in my class would admit to having a secret phone). It’s like x-rays in the 50s. You could actually go to a shoe store and x-ray your feet! They didn’t understand yet how bad that was for the body-and as I understand it, the dose was really high compared to a dentists x-ray now-and hitting everyone in the store!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Would love to see more Bo in the future! Loved your energy and the on-point commentary too. Hope you're going to enjoy Bo as much as we did Maddy!
His entire "Inside" special is just... OMG real!
"How the World Works" is one you really need to check out.
"It was just Jeffy Bezos selling some books" :)))) that caught me off-guard LOL
😂
His entire Inside Netflix special is goddamn ART. Absolutely give it a watch, if you haven’t already done so. Also, look up his ‘Kanye Rant’ song he did years back. It’s brilliant (especially learning he was having massive anxiety attacks on stage & then quit performing for years).
Highly recommend watching the entire special on Netflix. There's also a companion special on TH-cam using material he didn't use.
And I saw someone recommend the Bo Burnham rabbithole. I second that. Bo started as a kid, so he's been around nearly as long as TH-cam, has grown up with it, just about seen it all, and he has thoughts.
I've watched an embarrassing amount of reactions to this song and this commentator seemed to recognize and absorb everything so fast that it seemed almost overwhelming to them. That strikes me as exactly right.
❤️
Bo Burnham is bloody brilliant, and has a wealth of excellent material (even before this masterpiece of a Special).
you need to hear his OG stuff he was even more unhinged and crazy in his original old 2010s content when he first got big off youtube songs like "New Math" and "Im BO Yo" he then started getting into some really good stuff before he quit for a long time period. But his "Country Song" and "Lower Your Expectations" are also great things to dive into.
I think the point of this song that younger people miss, is that **the internet changed**. As massive social media and publishing corporations took over, huge algorithms started to be the fundamental shapers of what had before been shaped by people making websites and curating content for each other.
The internet changed from being something organic and human to something robotic that harvests human attention.
I'm glad you mentioned that pan out he did, it gives a sense of perpetuity to the trap we all willingly and joyously walk into called the internet
YES!!! Well said!! Breaking the fourth wall, right?
If the internet had a d&d style deity, this would be it… and the scary part would be that it would be an absolutely true neutral one, because it will help anyone and everyone any old time.
Yo if you end up down the bo burnham rabbit hole you legitimately won't be the same afterwards. I highly recommend it
❤️
It's a horror song and great one. I have one question though: Why do you not have it fullscreen in your player ?
Inside is so good. Deny Defend Depose ❤️ Happy New Year!
I really appreciate that Bo says how intentional these things were. They were waiting and ready. Things didn't end up this way by coincidence, corporations set us up. Plenty was organic for sure, but more was a set up to get you "engaged". It was always the plan to put the world in your hand.
Reminds me of Satan's rant from Devil's Advocate.
My youngest daughter brought him to my attention at some point in the pandemic....he's pretty awesome!!
❤️
You should watch the entire inside special, it's art.
This whole special is fire. Hit especially hard during the pandemic
Thank you Maddy happy holidays everyone
❤️
Merry Christmas Maddy, great reaction, thanks
Thank you! You too!
@ thanks 🎄
Not one lie was sung . . .
Ok, so... from the same special -- 'How The World Works' is an absolute must.
Ooooh
This. Can confirm.
Oh, shit... she's found Bo.
It’s like it’s from a musical where the devil created the internet
So true
I mean the Naval Research Laboratory did, for the military, then it expanded, by users for users. Then again for nerds, by nerds. Then a weird middle area before deep commercial saturation, it was for people largely by people. Since people=eyeballs=ads=money it was then directed by companies, marketing teams (hits and misses there), and then massive corporations. Now as opposed to marketing towards (hoping to hit their mark) companies are hoping to set it ahead of time.
Invented it? Or co-opted it?
@@tonywranglercould have swore Champagne-Urbana had something to do with it. 😊
Just the Internet. Truth.. Unfortunately... ✌️🤟🤣
Amazing reaction and breakdown. It’s interesting to see what people who have never lived without the internet react to this video. You should definitely check out “How the World Works” by Bo Burnham. It will blow your mind, as well.
Technology all seems to have happened so quickly, the cloud, now AI. It almost feels like a countdown, one thing after another. Stay blessed and Merry Christmas!
Right?!?
I was listening to Tom Lehrer recently. This has similar Scary fun stuff. Thanks for encouraging me to see this.
I highly recommend his song That's How The World Works
Merry Christmas and a HAPPY NEW YEAR
I’ve always said that we were not ready for electricity and all that comes with it….a power that has endless limits to its use….
So real
Internet yes, electricity no. That's a stupid take
“creepitry” i like it
😂❤️
Loving your reaction..subscribed!
I love your mind 🙏🏽❤️
❤️
I had to stop for this one. Have fun with everything Bo.
❤️
Lovely, lovely Maddy. This was ... interesting. This is why I subscribed to your channel oh so long ago.
Oh thank you!
JEFF was HERE 🏆
Thank you not being dumb, i just watched a reaction where the guy paused and talked about the obama part for like 5 mins as if he was being serious....
Well since you mentioned Jeff Bezos, Bo Burnham does a song about him, too.
No way?!?
Oh yes, there is a great remix on yt, I have it somewhere in my phone 😄😄
@@Balthazare69oh wow!!
This is it, for your reaction enjoyment. 😊 th-cam.com/video/R8iaViNIy3U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LXDpgJrHP98RNY02
There’s actually 2 short songs about Bezos from the same Netflix special that this song is from
Most people don't get it, but this is an old school thing where the circus master was the actual Devil.... it was like a belief people had. No one understands that he's being the circus master. AKA the Devil. More obvi at the end. =)
I wanna give a suggestion to check out "The Chicken" by Bo Burnham, very few seem to react to it and it might be my favorite of his. Just beautifully sung and with a Bo style twist on the life of a lil chicken. It's beautiful
Ooohhh
Thanks for this reaction! He is genius.
No doubt!
honestly 10/10 reaction
❤️
I was born in 1969 and was free-range. I thought boredom was impossible! There were always books and stuff to take apart and put back together and learn about! I know they still make kids like me. They have different tools, but I sure hope their curiosity is not destroyed by the information environment!
❤️
Oh Maddy, i don't know if you should have watched this... 😮. Thanks Maddy, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ❤
You too!!❤️
That was funny because it's truth.😅
Right?!
Bo Burnham is the Tom Lehrer of his generation.
If you don't know who Tom Lehrer is, he's a retired math professor, engineer, and musical comedy lyricist and performer, best known for such ditties as, "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park", "Werner Von Braun", "The Masochism Tango", and "The Elements Song". There's a Copenhagen performance that I highly recommend, albeit at 50 minutes it may be too long to justify for a reaction video: th-cam.com/video/QHPmRJIoc2k/w-d-xo.html
Oh wow!!!
You should chek out his "Kanye rant"
Also "Art is dead" performed at The Green Room
Ooohhh
Thank you beautiful for the reaction hope you have a lovely Christmas and New year sending you big hugs 🤗 wishing you all the best for 2025
Thank you! You too!
@@MaddyReactions Ur welcome queen 👑
If you like this. YOu need to hear lower expectations. OH Bo is another great one. White woman's Instagram is another good one.
You need to pause all other activity and go down the Bo Burnham rabbit hole. For my sake. That was the best first reaction to WttI that I have ever seen. I think you would truly “get” Bo.
Start with some early videos and work your way forward.
Very Interesting 🤔
Right?!
Love it 😍
I'm glad you like it
Radio was great still 30-40 years ago. I'm glad I grew up in the 70's & 90's.
Video Killed the Radio Star...The Buggles
Oooh
@@MaddyReactions Just my first thoughts i had to get out...BTW - I loved the video (hadn't seen it before) and ur review.. My suggestion was the first video ever played on MTV (how prophetic)...
Literally if the internet was singing a song fit for a disney villain. Its really chilling how evil the internet is and what its done to us as a species.
More Bo please
❤️
😂😂😂
❤️
Bo Burnham 1st time hearing one of his comedy specials hated all of it in 1st 5min. Watched whole thing to give chance.
Later on when the 'Welcome to the Internet' (and the rest of the 'Inside' album) was released my friends were obsessed. Claiming genus but I hate every second of it.
The annoying theater kid persona was not made for me (shrug).
lol I was a choir kid, I think that is an extension of the theatre kids 😂
🤣🤣👏
❤️
You have an incredible style!👍 You look wonderful! ✨❤️🔥Your video looks insanely hot 🔥Thank you very much for your creativity 😘
Thank you so much!!
Did you receive your Christmas gifts?😊😊
Are you Geoff?
If not, I have not yet! ❤️
I’ll check on them
It hits a little too hard
Yeah uh, I dunno how to tell you this but everybody’s already seen it, you’re one of the last sorry 😂
Kanye rant would be a great introduction to Bo
"Discreepitry."(tm) love it.
