And it coexists with "Reading Pornhub's terms of service, going for a drive and obeying all the traffic laws in Grand Theft Auto V" in the same song hahaha
I'm pretty sure it's part of the genius to be honest, it's a very obviously false and almost corporate statement, similar to those that large powerful figures make to try and relate to thier audiences
I think it’s indicative of the fact that he feels like he has lost all sense of himself catalyzed by the absurdity of the America, he also is wise enough to know that some if not many have experienced the same feeling(I know I have).
“Googling derealisation and hating what you find” one of the most underrated lines in this song. The desire to figure out what’s wrong, but once you find something that might fit, is too much to admit.
@@John.0079 So much bitterness! It's almost like you, a grown man, goes on comment sections solely to make angry, sad comments as some weird coping mechanism lol. At least make your comment good, like damn.
If you don't mind me asking, what is it about derealisation? I know the feeling well, it's a common response to stressful or traumatic experiences or situations - where you sort of "zone out", stop caring, don't feel like the situation is real, or like it couldn't possibly be actually happening, but it's pretty mild compared to having full on panic attacks Is it that people who think they're perfectly fine are googling it and realizing that they've been there, and that they're not as okay as they thought they were?
definitely. The futile attempt to at least grasp hold of all that's left- and get a good laugh or cry out of it. To at least still be able to feel something at the end of it all.
I think the term for that is “Gallows Humor”. Named after the gallows where people used to be publicly executed. Basically cracking jokes about the shitty situation you’re in because you feel powerless to do anything else. Although Bo’s form of it still acknowledges how serious and devastating the situation is for all involved.
I just realized this song is basically the quiet, hopeless version of "We Didn't Start the Fire." Man, that's beautiful and horrible. Billy Joel makes it sound like active chaos, there's this feeling of anger and energy. But this shows the underside. The quiet, creeping apocalypse you watch from your TV, outwardly opposing it but deep down accepting it, knowing there's so little you can do.
Coming back to this years later, I wanna point out the genius of the set design. The entire song to me feels like "trying to be human in a society that's not" and pointing out the irony in the way things work today. "Gift shop at the gun range, mass shooting at the mall", "book on getting better hand delivered by a drone". The set PERFECTLY compliments this whole thing. He's sitting in the woods, illuminated by a campfire, singing a campfire song, but the backdrop is projection and the campfire is LED, and in reality he's sitting alone in a shed. The music alone is a work of art, but the thought put behind the set design makes the whole thing come together so beautifully.
The contrast to his other songs rings of authenticity and the place this one has in his heart. It's a subtle invitation to listen up, as he's pushing his chips into the artistic pile.
"The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all" that line really resonates with me. It just feels like the whole world is a speeding train racing towards the end of the tracks and instead of looking for the breaks everyone is just looking out the windows.
in the outtakes theres a line he says (pretending to be a spokesperson presenting to companies) that gives a different context to this fear: "And the other fear, the deeper fear, the unspeakable fear, of never hitting the wall. Of this feeling never ending, never slowing down, but rising forever, like a shepherd's tone, an endless and pointless climb towards a terrible and dense nothing"
some of us were searching but when the people that know where the breaks are keep tying your hands every time you get close to those breaks it gets harder and harder to make your way to them again once you fight your way free. so now we just hope to survive after the rail ends and can stop the next train being built.
This line makes me think of what it's like to be young with global warming knocking at humanity's door. I wanted to be an artist, a storyteller but a lot of good that'll do me when climate change really kicks it into hard drive 😞
It's like "We Didn't Start the Fire", but instead of being an upbeat acknowledgement that "the world has always been awful and will continue to be awful, but we'll get through it", it's more of a realisation that things aren't getting better and perhaps the best we can hope for is to just shuffle off quietly in the dark so we can finally get some rest at least.
The list of weird nihilistic things that have happened really did remind me of Billy Joel's We Didn't start the fire too. Except that's just the Historical events. (Mostly was or tensions) That have happened
"The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all" is delivered with such lightness and beauty, but it's possibly the most devastating line in the whole song. Incredible.
Not really bro. I’ve been a science guy my whole life. So in the past 50 years, humans have learned a lot more stuff about the universe. However, this doesn’t make the data projections of the future infallible. No I’m not saying “it could all be wrong”. What I’m saying is-in another 50 years, there will be many more keys discovered, which will unlock more discoveries, and then in another 50 years… So we can’t be SO hasty in thinking that are projections of the future are complete and unchanging. In fact, they are the opposite. And anyone who has studied scientific discoveries through history knows that this happens over and over and over. “This is it! We know everything now.” Hahaha, but that’s not what everyone thinks. Isaac Newton said didn’t think he found what gravity really is. However, a million other people thought they knew what gravity really is because of what they learned from Newton. -- Humanity is the best life form we have seen and we haven’t found fossils of a more capable life form in our past here on earth, but in its current condition it isn’t my prime pick for the journey on into the late universe to discover what is possible and what will occur. But things change a lot in 1,000,000 years. Or 10,000,000,000 years.
To me, the most devastating line will always be "Googling derealization and hating what you find". Since I started to derealize far harder since the beginning of the pandemic than I ever had, to the point of noticing.
‘Total disassociation, fully out your mind. Googling derealisation, hating what you find.’ No lyrics have ever hit me so hard. Thanks Bo, for finding a way to articulate that funny feeling none of us had the right words for.
@@beepboop4103 I mean moving forewards into sufficiency without the need of a resource that will eventually deplete should be the goal anyways all it is doing is speeding it up its not like we have endless supplies of oil on our planet
@@kirkbarber5915 Thanks for the laugh, I needed that... I'm glad people are still able to take the piss after the disaster of the past few weeks. Though it's scary to think how many people out there actually unironically believe in Trump's delusions.
The first time I heard “20,000 years of this, 7 more to go” I had to pause the special to catch my breath because it’s a perfect, succinct, nihilistic encapsulation of where it feels like society is at.
@@waxenknight8864 recorded humanity has existed for about 20k years or so including caveman era and at the rate of civil war and bitterness we as societies throw at one another, it means in 7 years from a Nihilist perspective our world will be over soon.
I think it's actually a reference to the Climate Clock. The climate clock says we only have 7 more years to get to zero emissions before we are guaranteed to end up with more than 1.5C of global warming, which in the near future would make areas of the tropics completely uninhabitable to human life due to temps above the wet bulb temperature. Making a large chunk of the planet uninhabitable will cause major issues for the whole world, not just affected regions. Expect mass migrations and war within the next 25 years as people in mass try to flee uninhabitable regions.
@@dathaniel9403 is it a mechanical drone though? or just someone transformed from all the routine and pressure of the conformist society - a drone employee?
Rainn Wilson (Dwight from The Office) just tweeted this: I get a strangely sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach - I look around and the world is on fire, and all our culture is talking about is a popstar dating a football star. There's a song for that!
I had to hear there's talks of putting NATO troops in Ukraine from a friend. The risk of ending all mankind in a few hours of nuclear fire was less important than football to my own national news. I honestly feel like I've gone crazy sometimes. It's some fucking Kafka shit, surely I'm not the only one noticing I'm turning into a bug here???
My friend put it perfectly when he first watched inside, "Did Bo Burnham just write the modern 'We didn't start the fire'?" It feels so much like more contemplative version that fits so well given how the pandemic has changed things
I mean the government reaction to the lockdown has had 1000x more impact than the pandemic itself and we all gave in. Now we are on a never ending road to giving up our individuality. I expect many to disagree with me and that's fine. But the people who see this 5-10 years from now may think differently.
@@CousinBowling If we had done a solid, strict lockdown in the first couple months and then had strict national border controls, we wouldn't have COVID in the US. It's people like you who have made this nightmare drag on because Republican brainwashing makes you feel good.
@@googiegress and that right there is a great example of what Bo was singing about. We’ve kind of doomed ourselves because we have been programmed not to work together
@@CousinBowling I agree. I‘m very scared of the future now that the right to protest even got taken away somewhere. I think it was Australia but so much is happening at the same time I don’t even remember.
bo - if youre out there and you can read this - thank you. my life has been turned upside down and inside out in the last few months since my wife was diagnosed with very late stage cancer. your art has helped me stay focused in one of the most intense and chaotic periods of my life. if only a youtube comment could share the gratitude and empathy I have for you and your art. you have made a colossal impact on me at this point in my life, and i feel strangely un-alone in the disarray that i currently call home. thank you very much for your art - and for taking care of yourself, and for being here with us.
Check out Phil Ochs if you dig this. I’d suggest “when I’m gone”, “here’s to the state of Mississippi”, and “draft dodger rag” (two have an emphasis on the era they came out in, but that’s what makes them similar to this). His rendition of “the Highwayman” is also top-notch, even if you don’t like the other ones.
This song is great. Especially the lines "a gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall" and "the whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door" are downright genius. I also love the atmosphere that Bo's created with both the visuals and the tone of the song. I imagine this song being played on a campfire, in a burnt forest, in the middle of an apocalyptic wasteland in a world that's about to end. And also, at the ending of the song, the cheerful singing about the end of the world tops it off perfectly.
the line “a gift shop at a gun range, a mads shooting at a mall” is one of the most emotional lyrics i’ve ever heard, i remember the first time i heard it gasping and just thinking about how messed up that is. the line itself really did give me that funny feeling
I've been working almost every day in the forest that I grew up in that saw 302 square miles burned last year. This song perfectly describes how I feel every minute of every day between our climate disaster and our political disaster.
All eyes on me was about anxiety, while this was about depression and society’s downfall. I feel both hit hard, but all eyes on me had a more engaging video. The eye contact man.
Personally, I prefer That Funny Feeling, but All Eyes On Me is also good. And I didn't know he had won a grammy lol, it should have been because of Welcome To The Internet!!!
All eyes on me won a Grammy because by the time you hear it, it's a culmination of everything we've heard up to that point. Everything after is the chaser to how powerful that moment was.
It seems like the "funny feeling" is one that's surprisingly familiar to a lot of people, but still ambiguous enough to seem foreign at the same time. That's probably why it's a song that sticks with a lot of people well after hearing it, it's almost like hearing the thoughts that they can't define articulated? Like it's almost uncomfortably relatable, but mainly to the things you push to the back of your mind. That's been my experience at least. It's a masterpiece if you ask me.
I think it encapsulates the quaking mess of the human condition and how on a macro scale how we are perpetuating it in our society that celebrates and worships convenience, pop culture, and our political views that are literally that of pop culture. I mean, when civil war is the easy answer…how fk’d are we?
My take is that probably it's not just one "type" of funny feeling but it depends on the fact he is talking about. It's cool that it's ambiguous enough that multiple people will relate in different ways to the same song, but kind of make sense for everyone at the same time. Most of the analogies from the song point to one thing, but then say another one that kind of makes you doubt or rethink the first thing he said.
I spent a whole day once staring at my own arm and hand on and off. I couldn’t figure it out, but it just felt off. Like fake. Or not mine. Couldn’t exactly place what or why. That was when I realized my “weird head feelings” about me or the world around me and how it felt to me or how it interacted with it were maybe something more than just feeling off. Where getting into the shower and scared to be alone was the only comforts I had. Thank god for then gf now wife at the time. Even when we split up for a year during a really bad time, she’d still open her door for me late nights to comfort me. Even though I didn’t even deserve to knock on the door. Thank god she gave me a chance. I never got medical or professions help, I just learned to live with it. The world is weird anyway, what’s a little weirder.
Yeah, with all the other lyrics I always feel like Im being made to reckon with the boring dystopia we allowed ourselves to be in at that point in the song.
This song describes so many things. The feeling of not knowing anything but needing to in order to feel sane. Watching everything around you as you slowly slip into mental anguish. Only being able to describe it as a funny feeling.
Every lyric in this somg is crafted to evoke a sense of unreality, and “loving parents” is one of the first things he mentions. Supremely underrated line.
The term “loving parents” gives him a funny feeling because parents should automatically be loving. It infers that there are parents that aren’t loving.
@Larserus i read it as a whole "deadpool's sense awareness, loving parents, harmless fun" like even tho they have loving parents, they still have deadpool's sense of awareness and sarcasm towards the world
@@clarrie93 I read that "loving parents, harmless fun" as "loving parents" seeing their kids doing bad things as just "kids will be kids, it's just harmless fun". Could be totally wrong, though. Just makes me very uncomfy
@@larserus8286 it feels like a dig at the current trend of TH-cam parents that cash in on their children by portraying how loving and modern their family is with 'harmless' skits, pranks, vlogs, and whatnot- while putting immense pressure on the kid to make consumable content when they can't even fully comprehend the magnitude of what they're putting on permanent record for the world. at the end of the day, you're left with this funny feeling of watching a scripted 90s quirky family show... except you slowly realize, instead of a 'cut' from the director, this child is still going to be stuck with these 'loving parents' for decades more to come.
@@higuysimcharley I would probably think so if it was only about the guitar, which he doesn't play too often. But he built a career on signing. So to say he can't sing near the end of the special and only then feels more like poking fun.
Bo has always pushed music & comedy to the fullest. He never misses & I hope we're able to get much, much more from him in the years to come. As real as it gets.
its ironic listening to the words of this song while seeing every comment complimenting it flooded with scripts and bots. kinda cements the whole song for me...
I like people with long brain. I have long amount of disl*kes btw. Why? Maybe people with short brain disl*ke because jealous of my long amount of subscr*bers. Please have long brain, dear tyler
I will forever be HAUNTED by bo being robbed at the Emmys. Only reason Hamilton even qualified that year was because of the disney+ release. Inside was COMPLETE genius. It showed so many people what we had all been saying about bo for years. I pray his mental health stays up and we get more from him. The man's a genius.
Watching Bo Burnham since high-school and seeing this bright energetic whimsical person mature and age and grow calmer and more introverted gives me a since of melancholy. He hasn't lost his touch but I can feel the world has worn him down a bit. I feel he has aged with me in these times and I'm sad yet excited to see what's next for him.
@drifting static There is something uniquely satisfying about reading the comments of long time fans enjoying the least "liked 👍🏻" song the most. Too dark for the masses, though I can't help but envy the bliss in that crowd.
same i've been watching bo since I was in junior high and seeing the changes in him makes me feel some sort of way (read: "that funny feeling"), because I almost see myself in him, in a way. when we were younger everything just felt more hopeful and exciting, and now as an adult, I realize that there was no reason to be excited about adulthood.
I've always wondered if that "bright energetic whimsical" he started his career with wasn't always a facade, a character. Look at the message he leaves us with in Make Happy, "Are you happy? Cuz it sure is destroying me to give you that" and that evolution was him coming to term with it and finally exposing it to the audience.
Bo Burnham is the only person I’ve ever felt truly understood how to express the constant depression and sadness I’ve felt my entire life. This special was a masterpiece.
+1, I think it's moving and comforting because it sounds like he is on the verge of tears. That's obviously moving, bit it's comforting to know that others are in the same boat
Also succumbing to mania at the end. And we assume the cozy setting is supposed to be a campfire in the woods, a retreat, a vacation. But it could just as easily be a post-decline US lacking utility services, acoustic guitar by a burn barrel.

That funny feeling. Not quite anger, not anxiety, not frustration, overwhelmed by all the crap in the world that seems obvious/backwards/insane/ironic, and just having to accept it. Knowing we are only ever pushing forward and it isnt going to change so accepting that it is what it is.
This song gets more relevant as the days go on :‘) hope everyone coming back here looking for some weird comfort in this song just like me is doing okay 🤍

Collective mood ❤ welcome to another 4 years of total dissociation, my friends.
the lines that hit the hardest for me: “20,000 years of this, 7 more to go” “that unapparent summer air in early fall, the quiet comprehending of the ending of it all” “a gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall” “total disassociation, fully out your mind, googling derealization, hating what you find” “hey, what can you say, we were overdue, but it’ll be over soon, you wait”
@@lodougherty 20,000 years ago is about when the latest ice age peaked in coldness. 7 more years very likely a reference to Al Gore predicting 5-7 years of polar ice left (i.e the ending of the current ice age we are in) in 2009 or something (also a possible interpretation of a line in all eyes on me about having thought the world already ended being a reference to these types of predictions). It's just another part of the song that's adding to the funny feeling that I think is the one mentioned in the "That feeling" part of the inside outtakes, that things are ramping up to this big long coming conclusion or collapse or something but that nothing seems to be happening ('we were overdue, but it’ll be over soon, you wait') and that nothing happening might be even worse.
The plan: Get this person's address Buy stage speakers and cameras Place outside house during night along with cameras Blast that funny feeling Watch the chaos The perfect crime
Gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall This line is legitimately my favourite from the entire special and its truly inspired. Thank you Boseph Burnham.
That "funny feeling" seems to be a feeling that everyone has: a feeling that the world, that humanity, is headed in the wrong direction, and that no matter what you do you can't seem to change anything. So you sit here, in the quiet, comprehending the ending of it all. But hey, what can you say, we were overdue? But it'll be over soon, one way or another....
Bold of you to assume that. Obviously all those who benefit greatly from the status quo think we're doing awesome. Sadly trying to change is akin to trying to alter the course of an oil tanker with a plastic oar. Not even COVID, the most traumatic event in 100 years did anything other than making all the already rich and powerful even more rich and powerful.
"Full agoriphobic, losing focus, cover blown. A book on getting better hand delivered by a drone..." Is one of the hardest lyrics in modern music lol. Bo is incredible
I think we're undoubtedly in the death throes somewhere, but it's not the end just yet. Will we (millennial/z/alpha) get to retire in peace ? Very unlikely, in my opinion.
@@Hewbroccall me optimistic but i believe eventually things will be sorted out we just need to put in effort like we no longer have 2 choose between 2 graves for Americans president
Once again this song comes full circle in light of tragedy. In a few years when we finally collapse and we're left with nothing, this will be our theme song.
We’ve probably already collapsed and just don’t know it yet. Process is often protracted and with government propaganda. Out of the last three people, two will be saying ‘this is fine.’
As soon as I heard that line I had to pause, rewind, listen again, and reflect. I hope both that he is right and that he is wrong. History will always go on, but in what way?
i never imagined the perfect soundtrack for the apocalypse would be this depressingly upbeat this song tears me to pieces as i giggle on the verge of crying
Well, he knows nothing about the apocalypse. It's coming, but in God's timing and for his purpose. Br ready,..cause those in Christ will be saved and those who choose not to accept Jesus, they will be weeping for the fate that awaits them. Make fun of this at your peril.
This song is such a perfect depiction of depression. The whole special is, but especially this song. It perfectly encapsulates mindlessly scrolling through your phone with all of these random headlines popping up, none of them fully registering. Yet real thoughts also seem to creep in.
That funny feeling is his anxiety of the things in the song and yes this special talks a lot about mental help but he even said he got help and got better so I think he is depicting how we all felt during the lockdown mixed with all the other political and media bs
@@ceciltuttle743 Bo is completely sane and describing the world with perfect clarity. Modern life is totally irrational and any sane man should have difficulty accepting it. "We're all mad here."
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2021 and listened to this song on repeat (along with Phoebe Bridger's version) throughout the process leading up to my double mastectomy. It's hard to find the words to articulate exactly why or how this song resonated so poignantly with me during that time. I guess maybe there was some morbid comfort in the reminder that we're all fucked.
The line "the quite comprehension of the ending of it all" hits hard. For the past 2 years we've been in isolation to ourselves and feeling like the world is over, and with the current world crisis it feels like that 2021 March panic is back.
This is lowkey one of the best songs ever written. Somehow by name dropping a series of random things he accurately captured how it is to live in the 21st century
I honestly think that’s a part of it. Humans love lists, and the internet really made it so much stronger. And we’re all struggling with humanity now that the internet is here.
@@aggrogator4045 Ass, I understand what connects them - referring back to my comment, they're all markers of living in the 21st century. What I meant was that every object mentioned seems in isolation to be banal and random (like, "carpool karaoke" and "pornhub's terms of service"), and not something that would appear in a poignant piece of art, but by way of Burnham's songwriting ingeniously combining them, the end result hits surprisingly hard.
I know "Inside" has a lot of great and Iconic songs, but I feel like this is a little overlooked, and it's honestly my Favorite. Just the campfire style "sing-a-long" song about the contradictory nature of life in the western world and how we're comfortably numb to what could very well be the slow ending of humanity. A line that really gets me is "A book on getting better, hand delivered by a drone". The one thing we need in lockdown - human interaction - has been effectively removed because of technological advances to make things more efficient and "comfortable".
Without a doubt the best song of the bunch. It so clearly describes a feeling this entire generation knows intimately, but has never found words for. This is a song we really, truly, needed.
“The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door” I don’t know if Bo really meant this, but I interpreted this as having come so far with technology but with the consequence of climate change(ocean at your door=flooding). It’s kind of like “look, a good thing!” But then rebuttals with a consequence. Similar to “20,000 years of this, 7 more to go” as well.
As a depressed agoraphobic 27yr old. This song really is a magnum opus. Always makes me wish to be a kid again running through the sprinkler in summer without a care in the world.
Similar life situation here... This song puts all of my thoughts about the human condition into something comprehensible, and I love it. I hope you get on alright, and that we can both get to somewhere better in life. Maybe they should stop the internet tbh, it's just doing us all harm in the end. Good luck.
Not to play down your agoraphobia, but the world is so fucking shit that I unconsciously decided to just never go outside besides essential moments around 3 years ago.
Bo really launched himself into the "Bob Dylan" level of generational artistry with all the tracks for "Inside" and his own stratosphere with everything else he does. Well done sir.
I'm a restoration ecologist and this song is so ridiculously accurate and bleak. It's like how I feel every day as I try to bury what I know beneath some tv shows and my hobbies.
I would say it's rage inducing but yeah, at this point it's just depressing. I've tried my whole life to do better. To vote for change. To tell people. And nothing has changed. They say one person can make a difference, but I think they're lying.
Did anybody else notice the electronic buzz he put on the "..hand delivered by a drone" line?? How many layers can you put on a 'joke'.... this guy has transcended 'comedy', he makes art now.
Seeing Bo in the crowd when Phoebe Bridgers performed this song, has become a core memory for me. One amazing artist showing appreciation for another amazing artist.
100%, he sounds SO GOOD. Though some of his old songs were also really good vocally, like the country parody that I can't remember the name of right now.
I know this is primarily a sad song. But I find comfort in it too. Knowing that other people feel this way. That I'm not the only one who steps back every so often and goes, "this whole thing's kind of messed up"
Keeps becomes relevant again. I long for the day this song brings a feeling of nostalgia, not soul crushing dread at how very VERY on point the song continues to be. Truly the perfect bit of art to express life's vibes nowadays.
@@Howling_In_The_Dark you know, it's sad to see that you're in a lot of these comments, so I think you're just a troll. It's funny as hell.. I will say that once things don't go your way and the prices go up because of those tariffs he wants to implement, the bans and censorship of internet content.. The maga cult will be saying "I didn't vote for this"... But ya did. You just went to prove this man's point. It's people like you who probably need coercion to get laid, which is sad. That being said, Trump isn't here to drop the prices, He's here to benefit himself and the rich.
“The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all” hit me hard. It just reminded me too much of times where I’d just lie awake in the middle of the night for hours overthinking and just cry because of things that made me feel hopeless. I rarely get thoughts like that now, and when I do, I just reject it and just try to think about things in my life that are worth having hope for. Thank you Bo for reminding me of the place I was in, and also of how much better I’ve gotten
@@thecommentator9181 meditation helps. It's not about forgetting or ignoring anything, but learning how to recognize where your mind is and that your mind is what experiences the world and determines how to react so you can strengthen the ability to put your mind in the state that's needed in the present.
Bo is an atheist and this song isn't about depression being bad, it's about how our society is rotting at the periphery and its turning people towards nihilism. Good example of how narcissists can make literally everything about themselves
@Premiumboxingtips Predictions You're missing the point of the line. It's supposed to show how guns are so central to America that they now can have the purpose of stores yet are turning actual stores into a shooting range, swapping the roles. It's supposed to highlight the tragedy of how common gun violence is now. There have been over 100 mass shootings this year, yet it's only 85 days into the year. There were 11 school shootings and at least 9 shootings at shopping centres. If that's not terrifying, what is?
@Premiumboxingtips Predictions Oh, what a surprise, a bit of actual research dismantles your narrative that you formed by twisting the stats to fit it. Exhibit A of why people from the UK don't deserve to be taken seriously when they want to comment on American culture. Or in general, really. lol
@@damkylan3 You do understand that your last line is very racist? Yeah that person is wrong, but why continue their negativity further? Just let it be.
Maybe things won’t get better. Maybe hope is now pointless. Maybe we’re the last people of our kind, of this world we grew up in since birth. Maybe it’s all over and we’re just left to accept it and make nostalgic poetry about it for lost souls who feel the same.
I wish there could be a full month period where this didn't feel so applicable and relatable. Feb. 24 2022, the world feels like it's imploding. But somehow I'm numb instead of afraid. Bo's line about derealization hits real hard
Yes the world is going a bit crazier than usual, but hey at least you feel something. Its a reminder that you are human, that its understandable to feel disassociated with the world, and yet you still feel something, that you are still connected. We're all still human at the end of the day, its suffering but it has its moments. Those moments make suffering more tolerable and the suffering makes those moments more meaningful and valuable. Stay safe and take care :)
and so inaccurate. Imagine being in world war 2 and hearing this dork bitch because he had to spend a few months in an air conditioned apartment in LA.
Whole world at your fingertips; the ocean at your door. (While talking about the accessibility of online E-commerce and growing trade in a globalised economy; the second clause also indicate sea level rise... The ocean risen up to your door, as an unintended consequence of this the first clause.) Brilliant, just brilliant. I've heard this song like 200 times and this is the first time i realised the second indication of this line.
Song feeling extremely relevant today. I do really feel I'm living in a generation without any hope. "Twenty-thousand years of this, seven more to go."
I love the line "The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door." Yes, opening your door and seeing the ocean is beautiful. It's also terrifying. Unstoppable. Your house is on the edge and soon nothing will be left. But hey, enjoy the view.

I think it's the cliché thing someone says before playing the guitar at a campfire
I think it’s indicative of the fact that he feels like he has lost all sense of himself catalyzed by the absurdity of the America, he also is wise enough to know that some if not many have experienced the same feeling(I know I have).
“Googling derealisation and hating what you find” one of the most underrated lines in this song. The desire to figure out what’s wrong, but once you find something that might fit, is too much to admit.
Derealisation is Gen Zs new cope that we are all going to have to unfortunately deal with till the next hot word emerges.
@@John.0079 So much bitterness! It's almost like you, a grown man, goes on comment sections solely to make angry, sad comments as some weird coping mechanism lol. At least make your comment good, like damn.
Can confirm: I googled Derealization right after hearing this song and did, in fact, hate what I found.
@@John.0079 derealisation is a serious mental disorder triggered as a trauma response.
If you don't mind me asking, what is it about derealisation?
I know the feeling well, it's a common response to stressful or traumatic experiences or situations - where you sort of "zone out", stop caring, don't feel like the situation is real, or like it couldn't possibly be actually happening, but it's pretty mild compared to having full on panic attacks
Is it that people who think they're perfectly fine are googling it and realizing that they've been there, and that they're not as okay as they thought they were?
theres only one song that really gets how im feeling right now
20,000 years of this, seven more to go.
its just a funny feeling. thats all...
I'd describe Bo's style of comedy as "that moment when you feel so powerless to change anything or stop catastrophe that all you can do is laugh."
definitely. The futile attempt to at least grasp hold of all that's left- and get a good laugh or cry out of it. To at least still be able to feel something at the end of it all.
Art is dead
I think the term for that is “Gallows Humor”. Named after the gallows where people used to be publicly executed. Basically cracking jokes about the shitty situation you’re in because you feel powerless to do anything else. Although Bo’s form of it still acknowledges how serious and devastating the situation is for all involved.
Could you not have described my default mental state?
Welcome to the absurd. Pick up some camus!
This song is so unexpectedly emotional. "The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all" gets me every time.
That’s the line.
Something about that line makes me feel the most calming sense of relief, "the quiet comprehending of the ending of it all."
same, same...
For me it’s “The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door”
"20 thousand years of this. 7 more to go." Global warming.
I just realized this song is basically the quiet, hopeless version of "We Didn't Start the Fire." Man, that's beautiful and horrible. Billy Joel makes it sound like active chaos, there's this feeling of anger and energy. But this shows the underside. The quiet, creeping apocalypse you watch from your TV, outwardly opposing it but deep down accepting it, knowing there's so little you can do.
Oh what an insightful parallel
@ indeed
Damn bro this analogy slaps so hard. Hit me like a truck
That’s exactly what I’ve been thinking. Our generation’s We Didn’t Start the Fire.
@@moanadaniels1684 it's acceptance, the 6th stage of grief.
Coming back to this years later, I wanna point out the genius of the set design. The entire song to me feels like "trying to be human in a society that's not" and pointing out the irony in the way things work today. "Gift shop at the gun range, mass shooting at the mall", "book on getting better hand delivered by a drone". The set PERFECTLY compliments this whole thing. He's sitting in the woods, illuminated by a campfire, singing a campfire song, but the backdrop is projection and the campfire is LED, and in reality he's sitting alone in a shed. The music alone is a work of art, but the thought put behind the set design makes the whole thing come together so beautifully.
*tips hat* nice brother, 100% big fact
That's an amazing insight. Damn
The contrast to his other songs rings of authenticity and the place this one has in his heart. It's a subtle invitation to listen up, as he's pushing his chips into the artistic pile.

"The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all" that line really resonates with me. It just feels like the whole world is a speeding train racing towards the end of the tracks and instead of looking for the breaks everyone is just looking out the windows.
completely agree
Beautifully said friend
Listen to "we didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel
in the outtakes theres a line he says (pretending to be a spokesperson presenting to companies) that gives a different context to this fear: "And the other fear, the deeper fear, the unspeakable fear, of never hitting the wall. Of this feeling never ending, never slowing down, but rising forever, like a shepherd's tone, an endless and pointless climb towards a terrible and dense nothing"
some of us were searching but when the people that know where the breaks are keep tying your hands every time you get close to those breaks it gets harder and harder to make your way to them again once you fight your way free. so now we just hope to survive after the rail ends and can stop the next train being built.
"The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door" is an unbelievable line. God what genius writing.
Ikr! It's so underrated
At first I understood it as "you spend all your time on the internet when nature is right outside", then I realised it was about climate change.
I read this comment at the perfectly same time when Bo was singing this line. What are the odds of that
@@merlordmodding Thanks for the explanation. I had misinterpreted it as well.
This line makes me think of what it's like to be young with global warming knocking at humanity's door. I wanted to be an artist, a storyteller but a lot of good that'll do me when climate change really kicks it into hard drive 😞
It's like "We Didn't Start the Fire", but instead of being an upbeat acknowledgement that "the world has always been awful and will continue to be awful, but we'll get through it", it's more of a realisation that things aren't getting better and perhaps the best we can hope for is to just shuffle off quietly in the dark so we can finally get some rest at least.
Thats a pretty apt summary
The list of weird nihilistic things that have happened really did remind me of Billy Joel's We Didn't start the fire too. Except that's just the Historical events. (Mostly was or tensions) That have happened
This is 1000x better than FOB's updated "we didn't start the fire".

@@kittykitty0204I feel like all of them are pretty good.
"The quiet comprehending of the ending of it all" is delivered with such lightness and beauty, but it's possibly the most devastating line in the whole song. Incredible.
Well, that's because it is the truth and we know it. Unfortunatly.
Don't worry, it's just human bullshit.
Not really bro. I’ve been a science guy my whole life.
So in the past 50 years, humans have learned a lot more stuff about the universe.
However, this doesn’t make the data projections of the future infallible.
No I’m not saying “it could all be wrong”.
What I’m saying is-in another 50 years, there will be many more keys discovered, which will unlock more discoveries, and then in another 50 years…
So we can’t be SO hasty in thinking that are projections of the future are complete and unchanging.
In fact, they are the opposite.
And anyone who has studied scientific discoveries through history knows that this happens over and over and over.
“This is it! We know everything now.”
Hahaha, but that’s not what everyone thinks. Isaac Newton said didn’t think he found what gravity really is.
However, a million other people thought they knew what gravity really is because of what they learned from Newton.

To me, the most devastating line will always be "Googling derealization and hating what you find". Since I started to derealize far harder since the beginning of the pandemic than I ever had, to the point of noticing.
‘Total disassociation, fully out your mind. Googling derealisation, hating what you find.’

I think it's actually a reference to the Climate Clock. The climate clock says we only have 7 more years to get to zero emissions before we are guaranteed to end up with more than 1.5C of global warming, which in the near future would make areas of the tropics completely uninhabitable to human life due to temps above the wet bulb temperature. Making a large chunk of the planet uninhabitable will cause major issues for the whole world, not just affected regions. Expect mass migrations and war within the next 25 years as people in mass try to flee uninhabitable regions.

Check out Phil Ochs if you dig this. I’d suggest “when I’m gone”, “here’s to the state of Mississippi”, and “draft dodger rag” (two have an emphasis on the era they came out in, but that’s what makes them similar to this). His rendition of “the Highwayman” is also top-notch, even if you don’t like the other ones.
zero cap.
It's a joke referring to some old viral videos of people playing acoustic folk music and starting the video like this
that’s on purpose
This song is great. Especially the lines "a gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall" and "the whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door" are downright genius. I also love the atmosphere that Bo's created with both the visuals and the tone of the song. I imagine this song being played on a campfire, in a burnt forest, in the middle of an apocalyptic wasteland in a world that's about to end. And also, at the ending of the song, the cheerful singing about the end of the world tops it off perfectly.
the line “a gift shop at a gun range, a mads shooting at a mall” is one of the most emotional lyrics i’ve ever heard, i remember the first time i heard it gasping and just thinking about how messed up that is. the line itself really did give me that funny feeling
I've been working almost every day in the forest that I grew up in that saw 302 square miles burned last year. This song perfectly describes how I feel every minute of every day between our climate disaster and our political disaster.
dont forget the before that "Female Colonel Sanders, easy answers, civil war" great comedic line inserted seamlessly
Completely agree. It really gives me the vibe of people huddled around a campfire during an apocpalypse, just accepting their fate.
I just got that 'ocean at your door' line and boy, lemme tell you, that funny feeling is not going away any time soon.
He should've won a grammy for this, not for All Eyes On Me. Though they're both pretty good. Scratch that, he should win another grammy.

@@brookemcglasson9725 *PROLONGED* eye contact lol
If you didnt notice the clear reference to police violence in all eyez on me, go see it again with this in mind.
All eyes on me won a Grammy because by the time you hear it, it's a culmination of everything we've heard up to that point. Everything after is the chaser to how powerful that moment was.
It seems like the "funny feeling" is one that's surprisingly familiar to a lot of people, but still ambiguous enough to seem foreign at the same time. That's probably why it's a song that sticks with a lot of people well after hearing it, it's almost like hearing the thoughts that they can't define articulated? Like it's almost uncomfortably relatable, but mainly to the things you push to the back of your mind. That's been my experience at least. It's a masterpiece if you ask me.
To me it's about modernity, all out of balance. Female colonel Sanders, it's whacky.
“I cannot define it, but I know it when I see it.”
That's so true! Totally agree
I think it encapsulates the quaking mess of the human condition and how on a macro scale how we are perpetuating it in our society that celebrates and worships convenience, pop culture, and our political views that are literally that of pop culture. I mean, when civil war is the easy answer…how fk’d are we?
My take is that probably it's not just one "type" of funny feeling but it depends on the fact he is talking about. It's cool that it's ambiguous enough that multiple people will relate in different ways to the same song, but kind of make sense for everyone at the same time. Most of the analogies from the song point to one thing, but then say another one that kind of makes you doubt or rethink the first thing he said.

That was when I realized my “weird head feelings” about me or the world around me and how it felt to me or how it interacted with it were maybe something more than just feeling off. Where getting into the shower and scared to be alone was the only comforts I had. Thank god for then gf now wife at the time. Even when we split up for a year during a really bad time, she’d still open her door for me late nights to comfort me. Even though I didn’t even deserve to knock on the door.

Yeah, with all the other lyrics I always feel like Im being made to reckon with the boring dystopia we allowed ourselves to be in at that point in the song.

Watching Bo Burnham since high-school and seeing this bright energetic whimsical person mature and age and grow calmer and more introverted gives me a since of melancholy. He hasn't lost his touch but I can feel the world has worn him down a bit. I feel he has aged with me in these times and I'm sad yet excited to see what's next for him.
Yes growing with him is wild.
@drifting static There is something uniquely satisfying about reading the comments of long time fans enjoying the least "liked 👍🏻" song the most. Too dark for the masses, though I can't help but envy the bliss in that crowd.
same i've been watching bo since I was in junior high and seeing the changes in him makes me feel some sort of way (read: "that funny feeling"), because I almost see myself in him, in a way. when we were younger everything just felt more hopeful and exciting, and now as an adult, I realize that there was no reason to be excited about adulthood.
It’s sad how true this is because he’s always had a cynical edge to him. Guess comedy and horror can be two sides of the same coin sometimes
I've always wondered if that "bright energetic whimsical" he started his career with wasn't always a facade, a character. Look at the message he leaves us with in Make Happy, "Are you happy? Cuz it sure is destroying me to give you that" and that evolution was him coming to term with it and finally exposing it to the audience.

So perfectly said friend! It’s such a beautiful and captivating line. Magically sung 🌼
His voice in the whole song really. The guitar sounds rich and the production is so well done. 🥲
Underated take. Does Bo know sommin
+1, I think it's moving and comforting because it sounds like he is on the verge of tears. That's obviously moving, bit it's comforting to know that others are in the same boat
"Comforting in an apocalyptic way." Thank you for putting this into words.
I love how this is one of the only songs in the entire special that doesn't end abruptly or is cut off. it just silently fades to black
Holy fuck just realized..
Also succumbing to mania at the end.
And we assume the cozy setting is supposed to be a campfire in the woods, a retreat, a vacation. But it could just as easily be a post-decline US lacking utility services, acoustic guitar by a burn barrel.

This song is probably one of my favorites. The tune of the song is so beautiful. His voice goes well with it as well!
Yesss
honestly yea, it’s one of my absolute favorites hes made too
It's also my favorite song, along with all eyes on me.
His singing, the lyrics, the existential undertones, everything, just amazing all around.
I keep going back to this song when there’s chaos in the world that I’m struggling to understand. Bo is a genius
“Hey what can I say we were overdue but it’ll be over soon just wait”
Is quite possibly the most depressing way to hit us all right in the feels
Makes me cry so much
I love the way this song fills me with existential dread and comforts me about it at the same time.
This
The music is comforting and the lyrics are terrifying
That funny feeling. Not quite anger, not anxiety, not frustration, overwhelmed by all the crap in the world that seems obvious/backwards/insane/ironic, and just having to accept it. Knowing we are only ever pushing forward and it isnt going to change so accepting that it is what it is.
yes exactly the words i was looking for
Eventually we are going to “progress” ourselves right over a cliff

@@ZzGeWizZ I didn't connect the 27 club reference at all, nice catch
@@lodougherty 20,000 years ago is about when the latest ice age peaked in coldness. 7 more years very likely a reference to Al Gore predicting 5-7 years of polar ice left (i.e the ending of the current ice age we are in) in 2009 or something (also a possible interpretation of a line in all eyes on me about having thought the world already ended being a reference to these types of predictions).
It's just another part of the song that's adding to the funny feeling that I think is the one mentioned in the "That feeling" part of the inside outtakes, that things are ramping up to this big long coming conclusion or collapse or something but that nothing seems to be happening ('we were overdue, but it’ll be over soon, you wait') and that nothing happening might be even worse.

There are so many lines from this special that give me chills every time
It's also my favorite line. That's what scares me the most when I go to school
@@__m-a-x__ sounds like something Saul Goodman would say
That "funny feeling" seems to be a feeling that everyone has: a feeling that the world, that humanity, is headed in the wrong direction, and that no matter what you do you can't seem to change anything. So you sit here, in the quiet, comprehending the ending of it all. But hey, what can you say, we were overdue? But it'll be over soon, one way or another....
Yes.
Love that comment
I constantly ask myself if I’m just being a nihilist but… what else can you be?
Bold of you to assume that. Obviously all those who benefit greatly from the status quo think we're doing awesome. Sadly trying to change is akin to trying to alter the course of an oil tanker with a plastic oar. Not even COVID, the most traumatic event in 100 years did anything other than making all the already rich and powerful even more rich and powerful.

Once again this song comes full circle in light of tragedy. In a few years when we finally collapse and we're left with nothing, this will be our theme song.
We’ve probably already collapsed and just don’t know it yet. Process is often protracted and with government propaganda. Out of the last three people, two will be saying ‘this is fine.’
"20 thousand years of this, 7 more to go" still hits way too deep
As soon as I heard that line I had to pause, rewind, listen again, and reflect. I hope both that he is right and that he is wrong. History will always go on, but in what way?
I didn’t believe him when I first heard this but recently I honestly really believe it. Technology will be the death of humanity
I thought it was a reference to global warming, especially with the line beforehand "The ocean at your door"
@@thecrabmaestro564 it is. The climate clock has 7 years left in its countdown.

this song tears me to pieces as i giggle on the verge of crying

This special had me literally laughing and sobbing at the same time. It's like a religious experience with how much he's throwing at you all at once.
Well, he knows nothing about the apocalypse. It's coming, but in God's timing and for his purpose. Br ready,..cause those in Christ will be saved and those who choose not to accept Jesus, they will be weeping for the fate that awaits them. Make fun of this at your peril.

This song is such a perfect depiction of depression. The whole special is, but especially this song. It perfectly encapsulates mindlessly scrolling through your phone with all of these random headlines popping up, none of them fully registering. Yet real thoughts also seem to creep in.
so maybe "that funny feeling" is the feeling of emptiness we feel when we leave our phones and are left alone with our thoughts.
That funny feeling is his anxiety of the things in the song and yes this special talks a lot about mental help but he even said he got help and got better so I think he is depicting how we all felt during the lockdown mixed with all the other political and media bs
@@ceciltuttle743 Bo is completely sane and describing the world with perfect clarity. Modern life is totally irrational and any sane man should have difficulty accepting it.
"We're all mad here."
"our great depression is our lives"
You think this is depression? It's so much worse than that...
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in October 2021 and listened to this song on repeat (along with Phoebe Bridger's version) throughout the process leading up to my double mastectomy. It's hard to find the words to articulate exactly why or how this song resonated so poignantly with me during that time. I guess maybe there was some morbid comfort in the reminder that we're all fucked.
♥️
Hope you're doing well
The line "the quite comprehension of the ending of it all" hits hard. For the past 2 years we've been in isolation to ourselves and feeling like the world is over, and with the current world crisis it feels like that 2021 March panic is back.
It’ll be over soon
From one Internet stranger to another, i hope you're ok.
This is lowkey one of the best songs ever written. Somehow by name dropping a series of random things he accurately captured how it is to live in the 21st century
I honestly think that’s a part of it. Humans love lists, and the internet really made it so much stronger. And we’re all struggling with humanity now that the internet is here.
If you think it's just "random things" you didn't understand a fuckin thing about the song lmao
@@aggrogator4045 Ass, I understand what connects them - referring back to my comment, they're all markers of living in the 21st century. What I meant was that every object mentioned seems in isolation to be banal and random (like, "carpool karaoke" and "pornhub's terms of service"), and not something that would appear in a poignant piece of art, but by way of Burnham's songwriting ingeniously combining them, the end result hits surprisingly hard.
@@torstenatterberg5788 I ain't reading all that shit ¯\_( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)_/¯
It’s the perfect complement to Billy Joel’s We Didn’t Start The Fire
I know "Inside" has a lot of great and Iconic songs, but I feel like this is a little overlooked, and it's honestly my Favorite.
Just the campfire style "sing-a-long" song about the contradictory nature of life in the western world and how we're comfortably numb to what could very well be the slow ending of humanity.
A line that really gets me is "A book on getting better, hand delivered by a drone".
The one thing we need in lockdown - human interaction - has been effectively removed because of technological advances to make things more efficient and "comfortable".
Yess the campfire
Oh.
I feel stupid now.
I thought that the line talked about how drones hand-deliver stuff better than real people.
Jeez, commas truly are important.
Without a doubt the best song of the bunch. It so clearly describes a feeling this entire generation knows intimately, but has never found words for.
This is a song we really, truly, needed.
“A gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall” hit me like a train
“The whole world at your fingertips, the ocean at your door” I don’t know if Bo really meant this, but I interpreted this as having come so far with technology but with the consequence of climate change(ocean at your door=flooding). It’s kind of like “look, a good thing!” But then rebuttals with a consequence. Similar to “20,000 years of this, 7 more to go” as well.
@@goodday2884 "7 more to go" lines up with a timeline Bo previously set for his own death.
"a mass shooting at the mall," man I'm in Boise that did hit hard, because it happened.

As a depressed agoraphobic 27yr old. This song really is a magnum opus. Always makes me wish to be a kid again running through the sprinkler in summer without a care in the world.
Yo shawn, get out there and find some more sprinklers man
it really is a masterpiece, the beat evokes nostalgia for me, a longing for simpler times.
Similar life situation here... This song puts all of my thoughts about the human condition into something comprehensible, and I love it. I hope you get on alright, and that we can both get to somewhere better in life. Maybe they should stop the internet tbh, it's just doing us all harm in the end. Good luck.
Not to play down your agoraphobia, but the world is so fucking shit that I unconsciously decided to just never go outside besides essential moments around 3 years ago.

Did anybody else notice the electronic buzz he put on the "..hand delivered by a drone" line??
How many layers can you put on a 'joke'.... this guy has transcended 'comedy', he makes art now.
Seeing Bo in the crowd when Phoebe Bridgers performed this song, has become a core memory for me. One amazing artist showing appreciation for another amazing artist.
Yeah, I'll never forget that moment.
This is the song that really showed how far Bo’s voice has come
100%, he sounds SO GOOD. Though some of his old songs were also really good vocally, like the country parody that I can't remember the name of right now.
Oh it's just "country song" lmao
I know this is primarily a sad song. But I find comfort in it too. Knowing that other people feel this way. That I'm not the only one who steps back every so often and goes, "this whole thing's kind of messed up"
Hooooh that didn't age well. Here we go again.
Keeps becomes relevant again. I long for the day this song brings a feeling of nostalgia, not soul crushing dread at how very VERY on point the song continues to be.
Truly the perfect bit of art to express life's vibes nowadays.

"A gift shop at the gun range, a mass shooting at the mall" is one of the most terrifying yet poetic lines ever written
Fr that one just hits hard
@Premiumboxingtips Predictions You're missing the point of the line. It's supposed to show how guns are so central to America that they now can have the purpose of stores yet are turning actual stores into a shooting range, swapping the roles. It's supposed to highlight the tragedy of how common gun violence is now.
There have been over 100 mass shootings this year, yet it's only 85 days into the year. There were 11 school shootings and at least 9 shootings at shopping centres. If that's not terrifying, what is?
