Bo was on a talk show, many years back, talking about performing this song in front of Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez. They had snuck in to enjoy his show when he broke into Repeat Stuff. I think he had Bieber and Bieber's song Baby in mind when he wrote it. I think the song means repeat the money making formula: good looking singer, vague lyrics, repetitive chorus + teen magazines that make girls feel insecure only to be swooned by said good looking singer. Repeat.

Correct. He had no idea Bieber was in the audience at the time, he was just playing the song. And its not Biebers fault, at least not in his earlier years. its the fault of his writers and producers and marketers etc.

Bo has acted in multiple movies and he's a pretty great actor! He directed a movie called "Eighth Grade" a few years back that was very good! I definitely recommend it as well as his specials (esp "Inside") :)

One of the few artists whose live versions are superior, gives you a better view of his true talent

The video is actually pretty great too. Like the million lamp view like rap videos, and the ridiculously all races club in ront of the car. The Nazi and devil bits make more sense if you saw the live video, but it;s also really well done!
@jenbcamping2 жыл бұрын
To do the opposite, the live version, he gets the ausience to "repeat stuff" for a couple lines ans he changes the lights to red colors and gets the whole audience to sing along while he does a HITLER salute. For the jokes. OK

I disagree. His videos get to showcase more of his talent, because he has the ability to direct the shots in a way that you can't really do live. And the songs are also more complete in the videos, because he can layer his voice more than he can live. Plus, he's a little bit out of tune in almost all of his live songs. But he's able to properly tune his voice when it's produced, which makes it much more enjoyable to me. Don't get me wrong, I love his live versions too, but I just think there's so many things added in the music videos that make it so much better artistically, and more enjoyable to listen to.

E’s face through this entire reaction took me on a journey 😂 I haven’t seen this music video before, only heard the song in the context of his Netflix special. I think some of the weird imagery towards the end is showing how a lot of artists just repeat stuff over and over in their songs and they get this “cult” following of fans because it’s so catchy and the formula really works? idk

There’s also subliminal messages toward the end. Blink and you’ll miss them. In all honesty you have to tap and untap the space bar until you pause it just right

It all comes down to the entertainment industry making the music formulaic. The songs no longer are sang with heart, it's soulless, this video clip just rehashes that which most of us know. This music video comes across as comedy but unfortunately it is completely grounded in reality, metaphors aside.
