"I'm scared I feel like I'm gonna be sad" yeah definitely the last screen of the special is a mental health help resource

[@92siescult]

PLEASE DO A PART 2 WITH ‘that funny feeling’ (a more serious one), ‘white womans instagram’, ‘all eyes on me’, ‘facetime with my mom’

[@Error206.videosNotFound]

Yeah those are all the best ones in my opinion

[@agneebags]

@@Error206.videosNotFound yess i love facetime with my mom tonight it makes me so sad

[@reynalopez2419]

YESSSSS

[@riverstyx8126]

Omg yes

[@yourmeghan3749]

VOUCHHHHH

[@pigeondance687]

i don't think that he's necessarily critiquing reaction channels in "unpaid intern" i think he's just using a clever way, that's tied to the overall theme of the special - the internet, to portray himself uncovering the layers of his feelings of insecurity and the rationalization of these feelings

[@apppletreee]

I think it’s both

[@AlbeenoCookie]

Although he was called onto a react channel to react to 8th graders reacting to his film....

[@glacieractivity]

I find it deeply extential. In the feedback loop of internet (different from echo-chambers) "content creators" are forced to go down into the rabbit hole of responding to how people respond to what one have created. By each layer of separation we see Bo become more and more insecure about what he was originally trying to say about "free labor" (internships) because he gets caught up in a meta discussion of responding to himself being layered on top of itself until it is white noise and he panics. He is not pointing at reactors - he is pointing at what goes on in the comment fields below (and in his head) from getting "feedback" - and we all know what an analogue feedback-loop used to sound like in a microphone or via a guitar. Feedback is cool but too much of it is white noise just completely freaking everyone out. (Since I am a physicist - in the old days when a microphone starting to feedback with the speakers is not white noise, it actually start to harmonice in that insane high-pich sound of something powered by analogue amplifyers). I know I am old - let us call it white noise :)

[@adriscloudy]

in the part where he reacts to 'unpaid intern' it's a metaphor for how he critiques things, then critiques himself for critiquing it, then he critiques the fact that he critiques that he critiques it, etc etc. he explains it's a defence mechanism and i think it was a very smart way to portray that feeling of being in a loop of constant self-critique about your own work

[@Cassandra6]

He has this chaotic depression energy, set to synth pop

[@cut_the_freakin_steak_or_else]

Ahh, just like Jack Stauber

[@caitlinjenner1172]

yeah! you should 100% watch the special! really worth it

[@donnierakkell]

You should listen to his other songs like 'sad' and 'art is dead'

[@Har1eywood]

I'm pretty sure he's watched Bo Burnham before, he was talking about him like he'd heard other specials from Bo before

[@starlaphantom2642]

@@Har1eywood he has so he probably won’t do older songs

[@bureksapecurkama]

Art is dead was my first song by him and I love him now.

[@momoroxy]

I’ve always thought that Welcome to the Internet was a song sung by the villain that’s already won

[@ash2697]

Bo really is such a genius, and I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts about the whole special.

[@MathewMcKenna]

Thanks for joining y’all 🥰 I hope you’re staying safe and keeping well! I love you 💙😁 P.S follow me on IG if you’d like: @mathew_mckenna

[@Yan-ux5ne]

Stay safe too!✋🏼💞

[@Xisgone]

U 2 bro!

[@freehealthcare8203]

when he said “look here i’m very confused because i’m staring at myself i don’t know what i’m looking at” i didn’t even realize that that was how the reaction channels would feel when making their reaction videos to it

[@ryanmurray7443]

I just noticed that in How the World Works, the first time Bo and Socko harmonize Socko sings the higher part while Bo sings the lower, while the second time Bo sings the higher and Socko sings the lower. This fits with the idea you brought up that Bo is exerting his power over Socko to keep him under him.

[@pumpkin2986]

I definitely recommend watching the entire special. It's... im not sure how to describe it, but its something different and thats absolutely worth checking out

[@xxbennyboygamerxx]

Can you react to more songs in the special like, "Goodbye", "Problematic", "Sexting", and "30". (there are other songs I'd like u too react to as well but another top comment already said them)

[@ho7mer]

these are probably my favorites tbh, i mean i cant really decide but 30 and problematic are on the top of my list tbh

[@davidwieser8564]

i would rather have people watch the actual special. So please dont react to more since its just a way for freeloaders to not credit bo.

[@ashleyhoughton8592]

And Shit

[@kabagee]

you sould listen to sad, left brain right brain, eff and art is dead. theyre all so good

[@flayvurlive3427]

Something tells me he has heard them by the fact that this is called "NEVER LISTENED To Bo Burnham" and he knows about bo already

[@NyehNyeh12]

I’ve been waiting for this because the show gets pretty dark at some point

[@MiloCantTalk]

Love how you have already cought the fact that the special is a bit sad from just the songs. In the special, the songs are Bo's way of dealing with uncomfortable topics, through comedy! So they are the only "fun" part of the special, the scenes in between the songs is just him judging everything he makes... So it is a lot more depressing than this

[@radraandyy4536]

i think another interesting bit with "that's how the world works" is that after silencing socko with threats of removing him, he still inevitably removes him even after socko followed his orders. people in power will silence with threats, then even if people give in to the silencing, they're still punished because it's convenient for the people in power.

[@timetodoze]

Premiere is all just LETS GOOOOOOOOOO and IM SO EXCITED

[@max_mittler]

8:08 is probably the best reaction in the video lmao. And I've seen the special so I saw it coming, and it was so funny watching you actually react to the "unpaid Intern" song without knowing what came next hahah. And yes, the meta bit is a commentary on how so much content is just reacting to other content/events, and an endless feedback loop ensues where creating original content without reference becomes more and more difficult.

[@josefoujezdsky9541]

I want to see a reaction to whole Inside special by the end of the week because you will enjoy it, and I might sound selfish, but.... yeah I'm selfish... xddddd

[@timetodoze]

Commenting so the algorithm catches this video

[@Anna-archivist]

I’m probably never going to give up on this, but you really need to react to Will Wood and the Tapeworms the music videos are a bit strange but amazing the music itself is amazing and I personally love it to death

[@max_mittler]

2:24 first time I watched the special this was the first joke to make me wheeze. It's so characteristically Bo, so well acted and sung. Just the perfect joke for that song

[@embracediscomfort6154]

Thank you for saying the Welcome to the Internet narrator is tempting us into sideshows. Yes! He’s a carnival barker. So perfect.

[@GeorgeWashingtonsbussy]

A world on fire is his best and most emotional song by far.

[@Nobody-uk3lz]

React to AJJ! They have amazing music, their music is very dark but I feel that they’re extremely underrated, some of my favorites: Poem Body terror song Brave as a noun A song dedicated to stormy the rabbit Cody’s theme American garbage Personal space invader Coffin Dance Those are just a few, and some that I stated are from an album called “people who can eat people are the luckiest people in the world.” From 2007. As well as Bible 2 and Christmas Island.

[@aves_mcd0646]

WATCH THE WHOLE SPECIAL PLEASE

[@panainpublic]

You should _absolutely_ watch the full special, it's amazing!

[@charlieball5600]

I’ve been obsessing over this!!!! Please do more songs from inside!

[@decimero4308]

the special is definitely worth watching, and id like an extra video to that but dont pressure yourself c:

[@igornascimm]

You should do a part 2 for sure! This special is full of bops and hard truths, you're gonna love it.

[@benak3785]

GELAJDHE YES I LOVE THIS MAT, DEFINITELY WOULD LOVE A VIDEO WHERE YOU REACT TO THE WHOLE SPECIAL!!

[@imverytired6154]

You should definitely do a part 2 if you want, warning; the full special has made many people cry/ gave a small deep realization so like make sure that you're in a good mental state while watching

[@nullfreaks]

I loved inside so much! I’m excited for ur video :D

[@babassoonist557]

Help I’ve been radicalized by a sock puppet

[@lilyelva1705]

[@hinafujisaki2042]

YESSS PLEASE WATCH THE FULL SPECIAL!! I watched it 7 times already!! You'll love it

[@diogocorreiavideo]

I love how you were pointing out accurate his songs are and then your brain broke watching the reaction bit. Its like that joke was made to be continued weeks after the show was out

[@kupidyn]

i think you would really like his song 'Goodbye'

[@Jackman1219]

Yeah it was very good but sad.

[@allielesko4543]

Yes please do a part 2!

[@charlotte2382]

i think u should watch the whole special!

[@athenakvamme7550]

I would love to see you react to the whole special! It is devastating!

[@timeneses]

I'm always down for more Inside content!

[@boop963]

It would be great to see you react to the whole special it's so amazing. It's definitely worth a watch if you wanna check it out.

[@evewhite6718]

I have been waiting for someone to point out the commentary on algorithms (and data collection imo) in Welcome to the Internet. It's not just the jarring sequence of things, it's a rabbit hole you don't even choose to go down anymore.

[@daisysonjupiter1649]

Please part 2!!

[@Game_Erica]

You should watch the full thing! All of the songs slap!!

[@FranknKitty]

you should listen to Rainbow Kitten Surprise here are some songs I recommend Seven Devil Like Me Its Called: Freefall

[@rivermoon646]

Really hope you watch the whole special as I personally really want to see your reaction to a part in Goodbye as well as just the rest of the special it's self

[@gayIMEANGRAY]

jeez i fucking love the special ive definitely cried to a few of the songs but it rly hits different after really focusing on the lyrics

[@ringer1324]

We need a part 2!

[@emogirl4072]

YEAHHHHH THIS IS LIKE MY FAVOURITE SHOW OF HIS

[@deepakpani5139]

I just saw the reaction part of 'welcome to the internet' and I'm pretty sure every single word of the song ,just flew above your head .

[@ry1774]

tbf, it flew over alot of peoples heads

[@hannahkingston1018]

Please watch the whole thing omg!!!

[@eucerei372]

Just watch the whole special bro- it is absolutely worth it

[@live_laugh_watermelon7801]

Great video, bo truly is something else in the best way. Also you should check out Ben Platt if you haven't already, his album 'sing to me instead' is pretty good. Maybe, "bad habit, ease my mind, older and grow as we go" preferably, these are my favorites- Just a suggestion ofc :')

[@3xodus]

Would love to see the full special reaction

[@pigeondance687]

you must watch the whole thing, for the channel or on your own, but you absolutely must dude. it's a damn masterpiece

[@deliriousmusicality8840]

Please oh please I beg of you to watch the special in its entirety, it's absolutely genius and really captures this moment in history forever.

[@Pipe_munoz04]

[@o.p.7750]

IDK who you are, I have never seen your channel.. just a random search.. but damn, you are on point!!!!!!

[@Pathos_p]

[@crowpi]

Pls do a part two with goodbye, that funny feeling, and all eyes on me there my favorites 🙏

[@ricc07b]

Please listen to “kikuo”! I love their songs and they’re a master at tuning vocaloid! I recommend the song “あなぐらぐらし” aka “hole dwelling” to be included, it’s amazing, and the experience is boosted with headphones :D

[@blankvgc2876]

[@Krispy_Kream_Sahvanna]

Oh I just realized Bo has a scar on his cheek, I have an exact same one on my cheek too

[@gina5074]

[@koalacat000]

When he said Welcome To The Internet I knew we were in for a ride.
