Bo Burnham - UMBC - Garage Band

[@womankinggg]

Bo never fails to amaze me with his smart, witty and generally biting lyrics. This is probably my favourite song by him, as I also went to a Catholic school and found many problems in the teachings, He's got a lot to say and thank that Giant-White-Man-With-a-Beard-or-a-Sword he isn't afraid to say it.

[@ranrandom123]

DAMN. and you can tell he loves doing this one :) i love bo

[@1crispyduck]

This song is actually called rant.

[@dweb08]

yes it is called rant but when he was first demoing it to see if it got popular he didn't really have a name for it if you look this video is from 5 years ago so he hadn't named it rant yet

[@Talliwa123]

Bo makes me thing of a quote I remember somewhere (paraphrasing + translating): "Man suffers so profoundly that he had to invent laughter" -german dude

[@thenightband]

most of his stuff is really smart humor. he's really clever. love you bo!

[@emmabean97]

The whole pants halfway down thing only works for him... XD

[@penguinsoulja96]

i don't get why everyone laughed when he took a drink of his red bull...

[@TheDiversityTwins]

Wow, this is really impressive. All of Bo's new material has been great!

[@emzelz]

This is insane. I love it! His new stuff is great. I can't wait to hear more.

[@taylagreen5005]

I don't know what the best thing about this video is... is it the mic stand being way too short? His belt doing absolutely nothing? The V-neck t-shirt? The running jump up to the stage? Most of the comments are from 12 years ago? His t-shirt tanline? Or the fact that I somehow know all the lyrics despite never learning them, and have only listened to this song all the way through, like, 5 times?

[@daccord1]

"The blue balled anti-masturbater, the all loving f**got hater" that line is awesome.... so true haha

[@ohhdangggggg]

I can't believe how incredible this is.

[@Gumbocinno]

Kind of bummed they missed the full of grace joke. It's pretty good.

[@taptomer]

could you explain it please

[@MrGREATGAMERGUY]

@@taptomer Deborah Messing stars in a TV Series called Will and Grace in which she plays Grace.

[@Ungermax7]

Yeah, he said it in an interview that the Helen Keller is just easy laughs. His new stuff is without a doubt genius. You actually have to listen to get it. It's pure genius.

[@MikeBoylanPGH]

This song actually does an excellent job at describing my caveats with organized religion. Not to mention Bo is freaking fantastic. He did this at his show in Pittsburgh and I was really taken back but even then I missed a lot of it. To hear it here again filled in the blanks. He's a lyrical genius as always!

[@Haileeyful]

I've watched this 4 times and I FINALLY got the Debra Messing joke!!!

[@bread1176]

Uhhhh do u mind explaining it?

[@omgsup2006]

I agree with you. The message in the song, while humorous, describes alot of things that turn me off of organized religion, too. I saw him in St. Louis and when he played this song, I was totally in awe of how really AWESOME this was. Now that I found the full lyrics, it makes it that much more amazing.

[@crushchr0nicles]

so I'm nine years late and I didn't understand more than 3/4 of the jokes he made but it's a lit track and I'm in love with him

[@SoVidushi]

Same

[@wishywashywara]

2:29-2:34 my favorite part!

[@TopDogCrowned65]

Damn his flo is badass! especially when the beat drops haha! YOUR THE FUCKING MAN BO!

[@badooney]

This is remarkably impressive.

[@bigb888999]

(adverb) Yamazing (yé~mæzïng) when a person or thing does something amazing and you gotta say "yo that was amazing" but you don't want to say a sentence. Exp.- Yo Bo that was verse was yamazing!

[@rocknrollersforevr27]

gonna see him in concert on november 13th so fucking excited :DDD

[@Linz_Chick]

Me- what the fuck? Garage band? *clicks on video* Me-ITS RANT!!!!!!

[@metsrule107]

what is the loop called?

[@test123ok]

GOD DAAAAAYYUUUMMM !

[@theseay]

Its a garageband loop. Fort Miner used it-but it's not THEIRS.

[@Anonymite]

He meant that people all from the start Each have slaves within their hearts Things that we have sold or bought Then are forced to pick our moral cotton God calls us to set these free Free our hearts from slavery And then as God goes on to explain The logistics of buying and selling slaves He was just fuckin around In the back I sit and I nod To the beats that are bumping from my iPod My god they're starting to pray And over the music I can hear them say "Dear God, Dear Lord"

[@Deadguy56]

His hairs cool in this one.

[@Rockoguy]

@Anonymite How long did that take you?!?!

[@Naffini]

@denkoudoragon Fuck that's where I've heard it. Lol I have that album, but never put the two together. THANK YOU.

[@_kuae_]

@bigb888999 "Yo Bo that was verse was yamazing" last i checked that was a sentence.

[@KayFrogg77]

I love Bo burnham. seriously....if I could meet him I would do anything. this song is amazing and his voice is incredible. his hair is gorgeous. his smile is heart warming. anyone who opposes is absolutely crazy.

[@santiecam]

he reminds me alot of EMINEM listen to his voice carefully :D

[@PillowPenguinz]

Whether or not God actually hates gay people is moot point. He isn't just making a commentary about God or Christianity, but also about some Christians themselves. I'm sure if God exists he doesn't truly hate gay people, but that doesn't stop many ignorant people from shouting "God hates queers" and things of the like, and believing it. A big part of this song is making a statement about how some people view and interpret their religions, often hypocritically with a personal and unsavory bias.

[@deadinchina22]

(quote from bo burnham's song 'rant') thumbs up.

[@Yoyomacoco]

The beat is from believe me by fort minor.

[@BassRid3r]

Yoyomacoco no fort minor used the loop orchestra strings 08 from GarageBand

[@Danielleisababe]

@vivienknx3 soooooo true!

[@scottragsdale35]

whats the song that sounds like this

[@MatthewNJDavis]

The chord intro of this song reminds me of ,a 2-Dimensional platform tank warfare game available on Apple. (At least it used to be).

[@AllHailZeppelin]

What does the Debra Messing part mean?

[@xx-sg8wx]

Okay, but did reply buttons not exist eight years ago?

[@_k_o_d_a]

nope :)

[@SoVidushi]

Yeah pretty much

[@ikheetjason]

It's from garageband

[@workingtitle43]

@zephikramer not anymore

[@Talliwa123]

@Talliwa123 Nietzch something righht?

[@SoVidushi]

I love this but also why are his jeans so low?

[@crycrywolf]

It was the style at the time lol

[@SoVidushi]

Both valid answers, thankyou

[@SuiteDrimz]

@ashurt28 SO SO TRUE!!!!

[@jessirulz1996]

i go to a catholic school and i can't help but think of this song in church....:)

[@legitament88]

@HerecyMedia there is a difference and maybe if u were informed u would kno.

[@Jester1323]

I wish they had kept that beat going that they had at 1:36 /: But it stops after like literally a second. It was bumpin though.

[@Jester1323]

I guess it was 1:35-1:36. It was sick.

[@thaddeusk]

And I went to church and had bible studies while I was growing up, and now I believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster... :)

[@jdlmbgh]

I love the fact that i am rolling insanely and it seems not many of these people get these jokes lol :O

[@womankinggg]

I most definitely just quoted that wrong. Woops.

[@crystallicrain]

They had shamrocks on them, I think. xD

[@projotce]

He was disillusioned by them. Went the James Joyce route, you can say. :)

[@RedmayneDeadmayne]

Jacksfilms uses this track in his vids, too

[@Tryitout95]

@Mike89066 what?

[@4Nicon]

What's the background beat from??

[@astroneer967]

Russell Stoops he made it

[@knakhwal]

@AllHailZeppelin Has to do with Will and Grace.

[@brez002]

I think he hadn't added that part yet.

[@RedTrainer004]

Anyoe elsenotice the fort minor music?

[@taekwondogirl564]

@Haileeyful I still don't get it lol

[@Linz_Chick]

taekwondogirl564 if you were extremely religious then you would

[@kannibust]

I NEED THIS BEAT Someone hook me up.. please :(

[@astroneer967]

kannibust he made it.

[@sydneyl5434]

It's called rant

[@Joe17Pa]

yah its vague muscular man with a beard or a sword

[@tastic93]

Did anyone else notice his ninja jump onto the stage?

[@soccerwizard975]

This is a beat from Fort Minor

[@kertakerta587]

Woo Hoo! Remember tha Name! But, the beat is not from Fort Minor, it is actually a loop that can be found in the strings and is available for free use to anyone.

[@Tryitout95]

i am catholic but this song is hilarious

[@4Everlast]

Bo at his best, sounds like Eminem WTf. X)

[@simplystatic]

ohh this just makes me love him even more... fuck religion

[@wulord]

Wow The whole bit "Wino at a eucharist station/transgender substantiation" part was really witty.

[@currottl]

I heard he doesn't like to play the helen keller song because its not as intelligent as some of his other stuff... easy laughs you know? this is just what I've heard though, not any real fact.Although seeing him live, you can kinda tell he prefers the newer material. It seems like he just plays his older songs so that people don't go away thinking they didn't get what they paid for. pssh his new stuff is IN CRED IBLE. no lie.

[@Shanewherman]

PRESET!!

[@hijklmnop42]

His high school wasn't really that Catholic... look up his interview on Marc Maron's WTF podcast, from May 2012

[@xAssassinSwirx360]

so im confused because he went to all christ focused schools but then makes these songs.

[@IO-gm5qw]

xAssassinSwirx360 he doesn't agree with them.

[@Linz_Chick]

He isnt religious

[@cat-ry7xe]

Because his parents chose his schools. Doesn’t mean he agrees with them (btw I know this is 5 years late😂)

[@zephikramer]

thumbs up for zero dislikes :)

[@gurimon2561]

The violin from this song is a direct rip off of the song "Believe me." By Fort Minor

[@gabidagdag4867]

Gurion Ramirez or maybe fort minor totally ripped off the violin from garage band since it's a sample piece from the app

[@TheLildude47]

@HISConstantLove funnier than eminem

[@Brando2Shoes]

3 people went to catholic school

[@Anonymite]

So I'm sure your schedules pretty tight but. My dog just had surgery. If you could fix that first. Debrah Messing's fingers in a holy place. Hail Mary full of Grace. Obama could you pass some hope to the pope. I know a couple dudes who want to elope. See the Church said nope so bros can't cope. The bros can grope but the bros can't cope. They've been in love and they've been addicted. Who said they shouldn't? Benedict did. Cause in the holy land of the Lord. He's the holy landlord

[@bigb888999]

@XeroZ sooo many flaws in my life.....

[@cassieainsworth8274]

no, no one saw it..

[@Fulun125]

If you like Bo Burnham, you will like my videos as well. Wanna give it a shot?

[@SoVidushi]

What did u upload my dude?
