Kids, it is "ART IS A LIE, NOTHING IS REAL!" followed by "ART'S STILL A LIE, NOTHING'S STILL REAL!" ~ Also, "Art is Dead" is an entirely different song that was released way back in 2010. The mix up is kinda understandable... Why didn't you just look up the correct quote or know it well enough before commenting ? xo

    • @faneverythingawesome
      @faneverythingawesome 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Neo Ships Phan then again, every one of his specials show a solid hour of him doing material he's practiced and performed numerous times before the recording. So during specials, he's more confident and knows what does(or doesn't) work well with the audience and can become confident in all his stuff because he'll know how they'll react. Actually, Make Happy had him put in confidence into the people he hired and worked with to perfect the show. You can go check his Instagram he talked about how hard he worked on Make Happy in one of his photos(he posted it sometime after Make Happy was released in June, I think)

    Bob Barker is a long-time animal rights advocate. After most episodes of The Price is Right he would end the show, saying "Help control the pet population. Have your pets spayed or neutered."
    So, since he wants people to spay/neuter their pets, it's ironic that "Bob Barker got all of my pets pregnant".
