Welcome to the (Vtuber) Internet - Bo Burnham | Parody by Kilia Kurayami

[@AnimeSquirrel]

Niji EN gen 20 debuted... AND...graduated.

[@darwinprime]

Grim and hilarious.

[@turinmormegil7715]

This aged.....accurately

[@Daikael]

Well, let's see if 30 works any better or if 20waa just negligible.

[@Swagpion]

Time travler detected

[@exumbra1399]

I like how this roasts both the viewers and the vtubers themselves.

[@Papa-Corn]

3 years of the VTuber space condensed into a parody song less than 5 minutes. Impressive.

[@BlooMonkiMan]

This is the *entirety* of the space, from -Mel's- Kizuna Ai's beginnings to our standing here... Ok idk if Mel was the first one but i remember hearing she was. I'll edit if i'm proven wrong edit:ok so i was... half wrong? Kizuna Ai was the first VTuber, but Mel got big in the western hemisphere before Kizuna Ai did.

[@Silver_Chivalry]

​@@BlooMonkiManMost people consider Kizuna Ai to be the first VTuber from what I've personally seen.

[@andrewvance6047]

​@@BlooMonkiManMel wasn't the first, but she was the first to get big in the West.

[@BlooMonkiMan]

Ight thanks guys 👍

[@Silver_Chivalry]

@@BlooMonkiMan No problem. :)

[@playlistss4953]

"Don't collab with a man" A perfect vtuber cherry on top

[@stoneheart0007]

Even though Matara has been collabing with Bricky, and by extension, a bunch of others have been collabing with him too....

[@EmperorHoldar]

​@@stoneheart0007you realize that comment was like 5 months before yours? (And yes I see the irony in my comment)

[@cptwombat7946]

dont forget: she's one of us. ONE OF US!

[@omegatheta1701]

Every. Once in a while the KZbin algorithm will stop trying to throw me down the politics Right incel fanboy pipeline and feed me some true gold quality, top tier content. Today was one of those days. Thank you

[@Amdisvt]

I tweeted it to Bo Burnham - the original guy - because he might appreciate it

[@southernbear736]

In the left corner, we have the British Orca!, in the Right Corner, we have the German Orca!, Above belt ladies, FIGHT

[@Vincent_Womps]

Basically the British Dorca is Kilia while German Orcat is Shylily XD Amazing singer, producer and my oshi lol

[@Scarcro]

I have never seen anything from her before but this was suddenly in my recommendeds. This is insanely well done, god damn. Good singing while also using the avatar to its potential while performing. You seem to have incredible rigging on that model along with some precise tracking to get those small mouth movements onto your model. Props to whoever made the model

[@HuchiaZ]

All I can say is: Same.

[@maccheesed689]

@@HuchiaZ :"Same"

[@Aru_Violet354]

Couldn’t say it better myself

[@Catt-pq7ir]

came here to say that

[@kobiblade]

This is not original work, was stolen...

[@Chris-P.]

Easily one of THE best parody songs I have ever heard. Not only is your singing wonderful, but the references to vtuber culture were spot on, and you didn't shy away from including even the ugly parts of the culture that still exist no matter how much people try to avoid it or sweep it under the rug. I appreciate that a lot. Great job Kilia!

[@SagittariusAyy]

One could swear she did some lurking on /vt/ for reference material

[@Progeusz]

@@SagittariusAyy she does browse it. Like many other vtubers in general, including (almost?) entire nijisanji EN. However, remember about one of core rules of vtubing. Don't mention other sites (like imageboards) or content creators until vtuber herself brings those up. We're here for a good time, to escape from other aspects of life, to find solace and enjoyment in the oasis of specific community, without influences from elsewhere ^__^

[@SagittariusAyy]

@@Progeusz Exactly, we’re here for a good time, not necessarily a long time.

[@AB-ln2py]

Ehm... is it a parody song :P ?

[@DXAshram]

This, not only is the singing good, it also captures the intent of the original song

[@Riley3999]

Niji generation 20 got me laughing so bad

[@zetsumeinaito]

I can't help but stare at Kilia's mouth. The tracking is just so on point.

[@Triforce4ever]

Goodby Kilia, This song was the first thing i saw of you, and it being the last song you sang at your graduation was a good closure, you were not half as famous as you deserved, and i hope that wherever you are now you will get all the recognition possible

[@MiraPacku]

this cover is somehow really importent to me too also I'm glad to know she'll slowly continue

[@JarenceThatShowerGuy]

I....FRICKING love this PARODY. It's almost as if Bo Burnham himself decided to put a spin on his most famous song just for this side of the world - and made our favourite DORCA sing it so it PERMANENTLY burns into my memory. Congratulations Kilia. You fricking made my day.

[@777tman]

That line "put the emote down and well do the rest" was fucking gold.

[@SayuSincronisity]

Too true OMG I DIED HAHAHA Honestly though brilliant work on the lyrics~

[@clippysan]

Just randomly discovered this, incredible parody of the song and those pipes, damn fantastic music video!!❤

[@RC_Gaming_306]

Wait Kalia’s graduation?! It only felt like a year since she debuted

[@lllGSMlll]

and here comes the new viral tuber in YT algorithms, good job

[@void-creature]

It's a funny coincidence that this parody basically sings about the time period that has elapsed since the original song came out

[@MiraPacku]

oh god. I wonder what will be the next installment

[@Unprogress]

been listening to this from day one and i keep coming back

[@benjaminj.9730]

This is so good wth is like a resume of my life in internet since 2020

[@davidg5935]

Standing ovation

[@Bruwce]

This is crazy! Parodying takes skill, much more to parody Bo Burnham and to match the original's idea with your own lyrical creativity and choice of topic. Amazing singing on top of it too!

[@LunarEdge7]

Bo Burnham's songs definitely needed more appreciation and this is quite a love letter that does it well. Good shit Kilia

[@OneTime836]

This is so good and so real! Kilia is dropping truth bombs in this awesome cover! 🎉 👏 fantastic job!

[@kraykyle]

Lol the bopping with the random heads popping off in the corners is amazing

[@EL3CTR0LYTE]

Truth bombs, insane lyrics, and more truth bombs I'm half convinced Bo Burnham himself had a hand in writing these lyrics

[@SupremeMetalOverlord]

“But don’t collab with a man.” Feelsbadman “HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! MALE ON STREAM!!” *Feelsevenbadman*

[@aquaadmindoggo3958]

I'm missing you already Kilia, thank you for everything.

[@SaltyFalter]

This deserves to blow up. You did a fantastic job on this.

[@lordkingstali]

She just sumed up the entire community Voila

[@KiyoXVR]

As a vtuber and classicaly trained musician, im just here to freaking applaud you. What a fantastic job girll

[@akirathebird]

3:07 GODDAYUM she really hit those notes

[@joshnabours9102]

The gills on her head are fascinating.

[@Obi-Wan_Kenobi62]

I was not prepared for how high quality this was, well done.

[@sleeplessindefatigable6385]

Oh my goodness this was perfect.

[@CrystalBlitz]

Damn this slaps

[@ShadowTeller]

This is niche. but arguably as brilliant as the original.... so many deep cuts.

[@AlexVriairu]

I love how you captured the dark insidious undertones of the original while keeping the same wonderful carnival feel, this was masterfully done.

[@vkarvanzer4243]

Finally. FINALLY. THE VTUBER VERSION LET'S GOOOO

[@egornick9206]

Oh... Ok... So, KZbin just decided to show me the most threatening video I will ever see in my life. And the funniest thing: I don't know who is it and what is she talking about, but still understand and can feel it for some reason.

[@sirpieman300]

I discovered this nerd via a even bigger nerd and dork called project melody.

[@KiliaKurayami]

YOURE A DORK WAAAAAAAAAA

[@RogueIRL23]

This has no business being as catchy as it is. Also she's an amazing singing voice.

[@jantuck6358]

It’s built on the amazing bo burnhams song and beat. She managed to capture the original with creative lyrics it’s great.

[@ITCodex]

Parody hmmm ... I would laugh if the text wouldn't be so real :D anyway great song, awsome melody and execution

[@Zeldafandaen]

That was... legitimately a little bit terrifying. In like... the most awesome way I've seen in a while. I'm going to run away now and never return but... great video, very well done.

[@Aelethil]

Fuck it, this is the vtuber national anthem now.

[@fallingcrane1986]

Almost a year since this parody was made, and it’s still on point

[@valorzinski7423]

This cover is so meta

[@OpheliaSakuraMechanical]

This is... the first I have heard of Kilia, hopefully not the last, and the reason a thesaurus was set on fire from overuse :D, also an impressive range of model features!

[@TheMrObby]

What a banger! This dorca really has some lungs on her!

[@samuelcarl9350]

Singing is amazing AF, funny just like Bo too. The accent change at the "things weren't always like this" was stunning. And the final bit was made just that edge creepier with your cheeky smile at the end

[@TrashPANDA658]

I saw this in Depressed Nousagi’s video and I just had to check it out for myself. Needless to say, I was not disappointed.

[@vinnieg007]

This parody song was really well written, it was performed flawlessly too

[@TragerM]

3:56 This was the moment that broke Projekt Melody in the happiest way possible.... Evil Kil clearly checked off all the right "tags" for her, heehee

[@friedrichdergroe6361]

0:56 where can i find you and lily doing that?

[@nickprince8412]

its deffinatly an interesting take that is for sure

[@SmileyXY]

Holy shit how can I only have discovered this now? This is absolutely awesome! The bridge gave me chills. Your singing is so beautiful.

[@Ezepeaz]

If there is one thing I respect from certain vtubers is their talent and their vocal, and Kilia is really great, Sad to see her graduating when it’s September next week but at least she shared her lovely talented gift to everyone and that is enough for us

[@soimpressivesodogetothemoo8027]

is she graduating?

[@Ezepeaz]

@@soimpressivesodogetothemoo8027 Yes she will be graduating by September 08th

[@MissLalaClips]

This is FANTASTIC! Great job!! SO witty!

[@yumri4]

I have this her remix song stuck in my head .... it is a wonderful song to be stuck in there

[@revastic3886]

Paroday or not, this is fucking good gosh damn🔥

[@Tanktaco]

Probably the most scathing critique I've seen all year.

[@hanchung6126]

Audience Kilia expression is a additional treat. Yabai part is whispered And gone insane part is so hilarious. Love your evil laugh! Thanks for sharing your life, um actually summarizing Internet life after Covid version

[@Fakheet]

this goes so hard omg

[@Quarbit]

the "male on stream" part was perfect lol

[@craio4343]

You'll probably won't see this, but the song cheered me up a bit when I needed it. Thanks for that

[@KiraKira43]

This is amazing

[@tori5111]

wow this is really well made ! GG

[@itsLindell]

a masterpiece

[@9GoZi6]

came from Melody's reaction, what a maserpiece, thanks

[@InsaneFrenzy]

cringe to the max and i kinda love it

[@pifpofer]

this is fucking amazing. the high notes and great lyrics with very good humour this is WAY higher effort and execution than i expected! :D

[@_Crush__]

This is hilarious and you absolutely slayed, Your singing was wondrous.

[@bobbelastigend1417]

What is this? Why do I like it? SOMEONE GET ME A LAWYER!!!

[@Raidin0]

Never have i felt so attacked by a chorus and thought it was amazing at the same time. Great job kili😂

[@oddestzombie4715]

I so gotta get into vtubing undead shapeshifter here we go

[@Panopticon83]

This is great! Good singing, great song, fun to watch. Some of it is WAY TOO REAL!

[@shrIMPERIAL_Archive_Curator]

0:37 Womp Womp /out of 10, this needs more attention!

[@jayd.doubledubs]

The unapologetic self-awareness is simply brilliant

[@captaincrooked9051]

I NEED a Karoake edition of this.

[@DexTag]

Damn, that's a nice version. Really enjoy Bo, so this was a nice surprise

[@leikezeold1376]

Was looking for covers and thought "Hey, a VTuber one, this is different". I didn't even notice it was a parody and damn, was I pleasantly surprised to meet you.

[@Sheep0130]

You sang the slower parts near the end so beautifully

[@james14294]

Wasnt expecting this to be so good

[@kirishimaz.2145]

I'm so happy that this is my first exposure to Killia, this is such a good parody!

[@Sonic-Batman]

THIS WAS SPECTACULAR‼️‼️‼️‼️ 😎👌✨

[@XadeGrimm]

Don't know why but I like her voice. And get a random urge to play this vid

[@TheJum]

I’m sure someone is going to make a video of this. I am very much looking forward to it.

[@thejerg]

Wait, wtf? How does this only have 95k views? This is actually incredible? What?

[@Zolfried]

o7 thank you for this song, and good luck on wherever the future brings you.

[@Owlyfansch]

The strongest vtuber !!

[@dabombishere123]

Such a good rendition! Despite it being a meme parody song, you slayed

[@OpheliaSakuraMechanical]

"Niji Generation 20"-Kilia Kurayami 2023 Predicting the future

[@twistedhazards]

Why do I get the feeling this is the song played during a musical where Kilia is the shady guide to some innocent protags just entering the city and is scamming them out of everything behind their backs because thats just way life is, but the second half is when they reveal themselves to be the real antagonist behind everything and betray them.

[@lunawolve]

This showed up in my recommendations and is an absolute certified banger, holy shit.

[@Anzuul]

This parody was awesome Kilia! You did really good work on the lyrics, and your singing was amazing too! You did an amazing job.

[@DarthHavoc1]

This is absolutely amazing thank you KZbin recommendation for this

[@solpport4276]

Clicked for the meme song, stayed for her mesmerizing voice.

[@HakaiZeroVA]

WHY IS THIS SO GOOD
