      wwwK90 in singing "runs" refers to the changing between lots of notes really quickly (Sorry I didn't explain I that well, I'm not a singer) and while bo is saying "runs" he's singing runs

      that makes me feel uneasy. because then Bo will have to modify the song in order to keep it fresh. Which would eventually make him feel like he's trapped. I guess you could also call it improvement but i cant stop feeling this weird pressure. and im not even the one performing

    Aw, the last one was a bit slower than it usually is. And he kinda skipped a few words in the chorus. Makes me wonder if he's just getting a bit bored of the song, now. Especially since it's one of the songs he's expected to play at gigs.

    • @SealandRoyal
      @SealandRoyal 7 ปีที่แล้ว +53

      Metakarp I don't think he was bored. I think he just really wanted to be in the moment. He was really the only one who knew he was stopping at the time. So it kinda was a part of his goodbye to sing it slowly.

    • @metakarp_
      @metakarp_ 7 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      All of this could still mean he's bored of a song. Like, considering it's been a long time. But he's also said that he doesn't want to rap anymore, so it could just be he slowed it down because of that. Which kinda ties into being bored of rapping in general, maybe not this particular song. We'll obviously never know, and I probably shouldn't be speculating. And yet, here I am doing that.
