"Art is dead" is truly on a different level. His audience in that version were comedians and, although they laughed along, you can see on their faces that his words were hitting nerves and making them hear things they didn't want to consider. That is not a comedy song, it is a crisis and they knew it but they laughed to distract from it all. Bo knew how to make it hit just a little harder, too. The original lyrics were "But I wanted my name in lights when I could've fed a family of four..." In the greenroom, they changed. "We wanted our name in lights when we could've fed a family of four." And the accusatory glance when he sang "There's other people, you selfish asshole" was just... he his an excellent performer.

[@leonorapaust6369]

i only ever thought about it after i heard this song, but when you hate smth, it's always with a passion. You don't hate smth or smn for the sake of hating, that's rarely done or only done out of boredom. But if you truly hate smth, it's an obsession. The more you occupy yourself with it, the more you know about it, hear about, live with it until it becomes a part of you. What else could happen, if you keep smth around yourself for long enough? If you're into plants and keep being into plants, it's at some point a big part of your life because you have a bunch of plants crwoding your entire living space (I'm talking about my mom. She has an obsession with orchids, she has over 40 of them suckers). Same goes with stuff you hate. You keep it around yourself and oneday it *is* you. Happiness is different tho. It's not a thing, it's smth purely manmade, a concept. Like beauty. If you obsess enough about beauty, you will have a toxic relationship with your appearence and that of others. So why would it be different with happiness? Bo's song kinda proves this point. He sings an entire song about happiness, asking people what it is and wether they have it, how they achieve it, etc.

[@jayrhodes3766]

Watching back old videos, I now see the anxiety, depression, and panic happening all over Bo’s body language. After hearing “Make Happy” again, it made me tear up now knowing what he went through. I have depression, anxiety, and know how those can affect every day life. Also, watching “Inside”, it hit close to home with his experiences. Thank you, Bo, for all the intensely deep thoughts evoked through your music.

My loves the type of thing taht you earn and when you earn it, you won't need it....

[@ScarDude20]

@Nathan-DTS to answer what i interpret in the love yourself advice... i always believed that if you can't find anything worth loving yourself for, then why should anyone else see something to love you for? I find it quite the harsh advice because if someone is suicidal then this might encourage the idea of the world being better off without them, but it makes sense to me... kinda... i mean yes someone might love me for something even though i can't see it, so i musst learn to love me for something in order for me to receive and accept the love from somebody else and find happiness in my life. I'm sorry for kinda rambling i hope i could get my point across thx for reading have a good day.

[@erickopperman5665]

‘If you want love, then the love has got to come from you.’ It means you get what you put in. If you want love, then you must show love. This could be why God doesn’t believe in you

[@rocksarecoolg]

@Nathan-DTS I feel like you cant expect people to love you if you aren't even capable of loving yourself first off which as above said is kinda harsh but I feel like if someone who doesnt love themself falls in love and is in a relationship they can too easily make the other person feel guilty bc of their own self hatred if that makes sense

And one of the children won't stop screaming? 'Cause he's just a little attention-attractor When he grows up to be a comic or actor He'll be rewarded for never maturing For never understanding or learning That every day can't be about him "There's other people, you selfish asshole!"

I said, art is dead We're rolling in dough while Carlin rolls in his grave His grave His grave [Verse 2] The show has got a budget The show has got a budget And all the poor people way more deserving Of the money won't budge it 'Cause I wanted my name in lights When I could have fed a family of four For forty fucking fortnights Forty fucking fortnights [Refrain] I am an artist; please, God, forgive me I am an artist; please, don't revere me I am an artist; please, don't respect me I am an artist; feel free to correct me A self-centered artist, self-obsessed artist I am an artist, I am an artist But I'm just a kid, I'm just a kid I'm just a kid, kid And maybe I'll grow out of it

Art is dead is my favorite. Not because it’s relatable on a comedian or artist level. Just a personal level, I feel like I’m telling lies to everyone. I cried when I listened to the whole thing. It’s a huge vent if you truly look at the lyrics. It shows Bo’s thoughts. He may feel bad for being a comedian, which I relate to. It’s what he’s known for, being stupidly happy. Not being sad, not mad, the funny guy. I’m the funny guy..the guy who can’t talk about his feelings, cause every time he does he makes a joke about it to cope. Then everyone brushes it off like it isn’t a cry for help.

Humans do not make the rules of nature we only observe and name them. God made all the laws of physics and we just put names to it. Basically im just saying belief alone doesnt mean it to be true. You could say the same about christianity but the Bible is found to be historically accurate by many historians and atheist scientists. They agree there is a creator for the most part because they are logical and have explored alternative ways the universe created. Everything just leads to big bang or a creator(God). Much more likely there is a God(im christian) simply because we have the quality of God which is being creative and God created tons of specific and amazing things.

It also had the late, great gary shandling and Marc maron. It's my favorite episode of the Green room. Bo doesn't say a ton but actually held his own. He was talking about this absurdist comic that has a black socks in his hand and eats a baby Ruth with it during his set. Marc Maron says, see already I dont like it. Bo responds, ok it's a white sock. Bloody brilliant.

Cause it was a show, they also requested him to sing it, so it's more just them agreeing with him than anything.

My favourite must be "The World's on Fire", for sure! Such masterpiece!

Did you ever notice that only after people started laughing during "Art is dead" his playing seemed to get more angry/sloppy

[@samlewis3869]

The think is they didn't laugh untill he made jokes. And it was part of the joke that his playing got sloppy that's part of the song.

@@samlewis3869 Yeah I don't get the hate for this audience's reaction. What were they supposed to do? Start crying and quitting their jobs over a song about imposter syndrome, which they likely also experienced at some point?

[@yurigouveawagner9432]

has he ever made a show in ireland or scotland? Just like he sang "art is dead" to a room full of comedians, I'd love to see him sing "sad" to a room full of redheads.

[@somethingnotcatchy]

He's done a UK tour so I imagine he's seen a load of them
