Bo is calling out the Industry! | Bo Burnham - "Repeat Stuff" Music Video | Reaction |

[@viridian5maureen853]

You don't have Satan's words in the live version but Satan does kind of make an appearance with Bo's *ahem* microphone trick.

One thing I find funny about this video is the Advertiser Friendly high school/college party. They are all drinking juice boxes and playing with squirt guns and riding scooters and blowing bubbles. Selling the image of a party lifestyle but avoiding anything that might offend parents or advertisers or whatever that will cut off their access to the real target audience of middle/high school students going through puberty.

[@nickforell1]

Haha actually thats a great observation

[@grant8653]

Like a patient etherized upon a table.... The most beautiful

[@Lann_Bais]

Seeing this song somewhat mentions it with the line same four chords there is a melody that I say you might like to check out. It’s call 4-chords song by Axis of Awesome recommend the live one seeing it has more comedy before the song

[@GP-eh6xi]

the only thing the music video is missing is bo sucking off the mic, which is hilarious.

[@noodleguy9872]

The music video is literally a total remake of the Boyfriend music video by Justin Bieber. All the same shots are there. It's so clever.

[@seqvela]

I highly recommend you listening to Nerds that was on the what album, but not in the special, it's one of his more heart-wrenching songs, and I think you as a psych nurse, would have a very real response to it

[@LongandWeirdName]

Seconded. Jaw dropping fantastic song. That part about... Her... Especially with the instrumental behind it taken into consideration... No words.

[@chasetate27]

Thank you! I have never heard that song before.

[@zacharylyell6299]

Yes, I love that song. Its one of if not the first I heard from Bo and it made me cry.

[@acailoves]

i love nerds sm. one of my favorite Bo Burnham songs

[@JEFFwasHERE...]

JEFF approved THIS message

[@unclefoot]

So happy you got to see the music video version of this! There’s so many layers to it that just get lost without the visuals. The Illuminati references, the mob mentality, the parasocial fallout, and just the immense capitalistic cynicism of the whole thing. It’s brilliant. Cheers!

[@pfcampos7041]

Wow, I saw the stage version of this but the video makes it even darker!

[@PenneySounds]

His live shows are great, but his studio recordings are spectacular as well. I recommend "Eff", "Channel 5 News", "Hell of a Ride", "Nerds", and "1985". The first 4 are from the album for "what.", and the last one is from "Inside Outtakes" but only a fraction of it is heard in that video, and he released the entire thing as audio. There's also a music video for "1985" made by a fan which is worth watching. I genuinely believe he should stop thinking of himself as a comedy-hyphen-musician and just be a musician, because his rap bars are gold, his singing is great, and his production is excellent, and he can make quality material regardless whether it's hilarious or heartbreaking or both.

[@duckprints7]

Bo never fails to be fantastic.

[@JEFFwasHERE...]

JEFF was HERE JEFF was HERE JEFF was HERE JEFF was HERE

[@nickforell1]

Jeff, Jeff, Jeff

[@pbjbagel]

Can't tell if you noticed the not-so-intimate moment at 4:07. I know I missed it the first time I watched it.

[@Itsant33]

In the Kanye rant when he says that you can write I need people will be happy with it because he has a lot of words where he has a literal cries for help. You probably should have seen the life specialist first. I think at the beginning of what or OBO is when he says that he's already contractually obligated. And the recording of him saying that ends with dance monkey dance.

[@CaptainFirefred]

The next time you need to restart your camera while recording make sure the mike of the camera stays off, you sound like you recorded in a public bathroom.But your content rocks.

[@SpencerTwiddy]

Mic

[@nickforell1]

Hahaha I know it was really bad quality, thank you for the laugh

[@ranahooke1907]

Oooh so good. The music video adds another dimension to this song!

[@nickforell1]

Yeah, I really enjoyed both versions. Anything Bo touches

[@CasuallySauced]

Since you seem to really enjoy wordplay, I’d love to see how you feel about someone like Aesop Rock. Good tracks to react to? Shrunk, Get Out of the Car, No Regrets, Ruby 81, None Shall Pass. A bunch more but those are the most easily accessible, I’d say. I’d love to hear your thoughts! Keep it up, brotha.

[@nickforell1]

Thanks Greg! Definitely will hit some Aesop

[@vh8542]

I like the live performance better but I do like the things that a video can do that live can't with repeat stuff. Oddly enough I like the words words words video better than the live performance 😂

[@nickforell1]

Yeah they both have strengths! Loved the words video but haven’t seen the live yet

[@seansmith2797]

Oddly enough, I only gave a thumbs up because this is one of the only reactions I can find right now with the music video.

[@iEditStuf]

Hey Nick, discovered your reactions recently and really enjoying them. One thing I would say is the volume of you talking is often much much quieter than what you're reacting to. Means I often turn the volume up to hear you and then the music blows my eardrums. Really enjoy your reactions though keep it up :)

[@nickforell1]

Thank you Ed, I'll fiddle around with my settings!

[@delicia3013]

I was going to comment on this, it sounds like it’s using the webcam mic at a distance.

[@heatherr6138]

Thanks for doing this reaction! I love Bo Burnham. He somehow makes me laugh and makes me uncomfortable at the same time. Haha

[@nickforell1]

Glad you enjoyed Heather, he is so awesome

[@CAM3RONW]

On your own, google the hidden subliminal messages in this video that flash towards the end. Very very funny

[@KayserathePoetKiller]

I was just about to comment this. +1

[@heatherr6138]

Omg, I just googled it. Lol!

[@johnekare8376]

Great reaction! A good follow up to this on the same theme would be Dominos by Ren (kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJPFm4p7o6hmfcU). They seem to be of similar mind when it comes to the topic, but differ in how they present the issue.

[@jkehler1258]

You made my day, I've been waiting for this reaction. 🙂

[@nickforell1]

Glad you enjoyed J. Appreciate you!

[@kiosfriend]

"okay that's a shitty dad joke" *writes on paper* Interesting.

[@JimFeig]

Kpop is the new leader in this.

[@ricardobianchi2004]

He’s awesome

[@nickforell1]

One of a kind!

[@thegrassisbluer09]

I dont see anyone react to Charles Bradley, and I think that your persepctive would be the best for reacting to him! Heartaches and Pain wiuld be a great one to start on

[@nickforell1]

Ooh, okay I'll definitely check him out!

[@lindasalaki9404]

Great Video ❤

[@nickforell1]

Glad you enjoyed

[@JRMcCarroll]

I think the live version was better, but this version was more appropriate to the subject matter.

[@nickforell1]

I enjoyed both versions but yeah theres something about watching an artist go at it live

[@Yichh]

Michael Jackson ended up getting into one of his shows as an audience, and Bo Burnham unknowingly played this song in front of him 😂

[@ranahooke1907]

Wait, you’ve done Words words words? Have you released it yet?

[@nickforell1]

The song! Sorry not the special

[@ranahooke1907]

@@nickforell1 I knew you meant the song. Just somehow spaced on having seen you react to it! Memory like a sieve sometimes. 😂

[@ihatecrazyfrog]

Another great video :)

[@nickforell1]

Glad you enjoyed it Craig!
