FIRST TIME WATCHING Inside by Bo Burnham - Everything about this is absolutely genius

i am a little scared i feel like this is gonna be intense weird scary i don't know what i'm in for and the way people have been talking about it is a lot so without further ado let's watch inside okay already a little bit unnerving why do i feel like i'm gonna get jump scared okay i prefer that all right getting some like 70s synth pop going on [Music] a year ago [Music] was this like right at the start of lockdown no joke when i was trying to schedule a haircut i know that like australia is dealing fine-ish it's kind of on the rise again yay but when i was trying to get my hair cut it was so difficult it took me literally like a month to get booked in and ready to go i made you some kind oh that's cool oh damn that's to cool inside it's a beautiful day to stay inside is now my life motto i love that he did it all by himself camera test wow this is extremely realistic this is what i do all the time [Music] i'm already enthralled man the flashes between like different stages of him is uh is really cool the world is changing i remember this one i didn't know this was the first song well i guess second really what the [ __ ] is going on dude his vibrato is nice too i didn't notice that before should i leave you alone cause really who's gonna go for it at a time like this the first time i listened to this i was really paying attention to the lyrics and now i'm just like sitting and listening to how nice his voice sounds should i stop trying to be funny the lighting is like impressive it still somehow kind of feels and looks like he's on stage if you wake up in a house that's full of smoke don't panic call me and i'll tell you a joke i love the filtering on the vocals you see white men dressed in white cloaks don't panic call me and i'll tell you a joke the harmonies are lovely and i love how light chill the delivery is with some of [Music] them i'm curious does he actually is this like spoken and i guess a vlog in between the songs or is it just all songs hi okay this is what i was expecting decided to uh try to make a new special for real i like this angle i didn't think about it going into like a uh mirror it's just uh me and my camera and you and your screen uh the way that that our lord intended his humor feels so much more dry without the audience [Music] all right and a bit more poppy huh cool chord progression going back down was a nice choice makes it sound very melancholy this is actually like really cute i'll waste my time face [Music] already different vibes coming from all these songs hey hey kids oh i've heard this one as well in the previous video it's pretty amazing but how does it work how smooth he is on the piano is so nice [Music] oh man watching this a second time i just realized the madonna might is there to give like a literally singing to kids advice like i don't know the wiggles or something [Music] [Music] i just love how bo is essentially smiling politely and pretending to get along and then silencism anyway hello my name is bo burnham and i am a former comedian turned social first off the man bun second off the editing is on point for exactly these kinds of videos consumers want to know are you willing to use your brand awareness to affect positive social change which will create more brand awareness my god i've met so many people like this it's so frustrating already the question is no longer do you want to buy wheat fins for example oh my god there's a reprise of healing the world through comedy it was like an orchestral reprise where it's doing the same thing but like with violins listen hold on do you want to buy wheat fins for example that's so cool you can roll up your sleeves and get to work it's always fascinating hearing people like this talk because it's like you are saying nothing at all of substance love the outfit no idea where it's going i've heard so much about this song oh my god oh dude this is like every instagram lounge at vidcon hey i did that for the 100k photo [Music] dude he's pulling off these looks though loved that absolutely loved every second of that that was so good i think especially because like everyone who watches that will be like oh i know exactly who he's talking about dude more 70sync lyrics a solo hell yeah so like outside of the sentiment of these songs these are kind of slapping [Music] oh [Music] dick and one hand on my phone this has such a flow to it though man unironically [Music] like this could literally be in my playlist and i would jam to it oh god do you know how dirty your phone is hey everybody i just wanted to make a really quick video to say thank you thank you for watching my con what's the knife full fam guys see you later [Music] oh god thanks i hate it okay i was expecting something stuck in a room breath it's cool seeing the like behind the scenes of it in between [Music] i'm just so like enthralled by him when he sings like this it feels really intimate [Music] one more yeah i feel that always always one more take right okay intense oh wow he's looking at his old stuff why do i feel a sense of existential dread [Music] oh [ __ ] okay fire hell yeah i wrote offensive [ __ ] and i said it is this him like acknowledging some stuff he'd said before [Music] i love him like calling himself out those lyrics feel like a little bit of a commentary on the idea of people like not being sorry they did it but being sorry they got caught like if in your apology you're talking about how oh i didn't think this had come up or whatever that's just you being sorry you got caught right not actually apologizing for saying or doing something offensive cool harmonies again man [Music] again i love the behind the scenes this is like 90 of what filmmaking is oh god that was such a real reaction that could not have been scripted right i've been working on this special now for six months wow again i love the flashbacks i wanted to finish this before i turned 30 because the idea of of turning 30 while still in this [ __ ] room i just i just wanted to avoid that this feels very wrong i turned 30 in less than a minute so i'm just going to sit here and enjoy uh my 20s well i'm absolutely going to do this when i turn 30. [Music] man yay i used to ride my bike i used to wake up with a smile is this another one that's going to give me an existential crisis the light design is so good dude and it's wild he did it all himself when he was 27 my granddad fought in vietnam you know what's a wild thing that like always throws me for an existential loot my grandma when she was 18 got married and when she was i think 21 had her first child and then had like four more and i never know what to do with that information but all i know is it makes me feel really weird and when i think about the fact that people were like my age or younger than me and fighting wars it is wild the concept of time is weird and scary it's a choice to do this in underwear but i respect it [Music] a little too much for me i just want to say for the record um that i do not want to kill myself i don't want to kill myself and i'm not going to kill myself full disclosure here and this will get a little real as i said before the concept of time passing scares the absolute jesus out of me like you would not believe how terrifying i find it and the reason i said oh yeah that's how i relate to that is that like the concept of being older is so foreign to me that there are times where i'm like oh when i'm 40 it's fine i always have the option to just kill myself right and the thing that always brings me back is like five years ago i was terrified of what my life would be in five years and how i would be in five years and ten years ago i was even more terrified of ten years into the future and now this is just another layer of that right it's me being scared of of what's in store four five six ten twenty years in the future and it's natural to freak out about that but just know that you've been scared about being where you are now before and it's fine also not gonna kill myself just saying how were you feeling do you like the show are you tired of it never mind i don't want to know i'm really not i'm really weirdly engrossed [Music] all right so this dude's been in here for a while so is this like an escape the room or uh okay so i can cry so he's not happy about being in this room damn bar you're getting metal you're in this like 2d setup right like i can't control the camera just imagine filming this knowing what you're gonna do i don't know i'll cry i guess again i love the court i'll cry i guess again thank you for the four months appreciate it so he was sleeping in the room like the whole time or how we feeling out there tonight the hell yeah bo i am not feeling good wake up 11 30 feeling like a bag of [ __ ] oh god look in the mirror say what's up you useless [ __ ] stop this is my life i just feel so called out and that's fine i'm ready to confront my flaws but there's so much here and i already know i need to work on some things so you feeling like [ __ ] tell me you're feeling like [ __ ] oh god is that that's the end of the song already damn check it back in with billionaires [Music] what is he singing about here backlash to the backlash to the thing that's just begun that's a really cool line there [Music] just again why is this making me emotional colonel sanders he's the answer bo with an acoustic vibe is amazing this chorus is making me emotional is this about to make me cry is this going to make me cry pornhub times is total disassociation fully out your mind i remember the first time i had a disassociative episode and it was absolutely terrifying summer air in early fall damn dude you sound incredible it's such a nice gorgeous voice [Music] but it'll be over soon this reminds me of two of my favorite artists iron and wine and bright eyes like combined i love this end out because it got a bit more serious i was expecting something like really serious towards the end of the special and i'm still here for everything that's happening so so i've been working on this uh special for a year wow so it was six months i went when he turned 30 damn yeah this would be very stressful so i've been working on this special for um a year now which is um a lot longer than i anticipated working on it when i started okay so again full disclosure a little bit of relating to this because there have been many times where i've felt that really frustrated build of just not being able to say something right do something right and it can be something really simple like here he's just trying to say a sentence and if you screw that up enough it drives you crazy and i have done literally exactly what he just did i've done that and it's wild to see myself a lot in this special so i've been working on yeah man i am not um well damn dude this has gone a lot more intense towards the end here hey [Music] again i don't know why i'm feeling emotional i think it's just the combination of everything everybody knows everybody stop i'm literally gonna cry and i don't know why i have no idea why i'm getting upset i think it's just like a lot of weird elements of empathy combined with just this weird i guess journey sort of thing you say the ocean is rising i don't know how to deal with this on camera guys i love this song so much dude i just feel mind blown by how he's managed to make me feel such strong emotions i like really taking me along on this whole thing with him very curious how we're gonna end because all eyes on me felt like the finale song to me i think i'm i'm done fair enough dude um possible uh ending song that is not finished oh my god did he write this at the start goodbye oh but he's singing it later that's dark when no one's laughing in the background stop i don't want to cry again man where i started 14 years ago this is not at all what i thought i'd be getting hit with i swear to god that all i've ever wanted was a little bit of everything referencing the earlier songs i love the like callbacks to earlier songs i hope he does it for almost all of them at least [Music] i'm like one thing will push me over the edge oh it's him thinking about going outside that's a cool choice oh man and he wants to go back in but he can't the laughter while he does that is somewhat terrifying for me [Applause] wasn't that a lot i didn't really know what i was in for but i didn't think it would be quite like that i felt like that was really so beautifully done everything was well written well produced looked so good designed so well and honestly told an incredible story that just worked and evoked so much from me so with that said so with that said i think i'm going to uh wrap up this video because i feel a lot and that was just intense and i just want to say bo if you ever watched this sincerely from the bottom of my heart well done that was incredible and made me feel a lot and i think some of it's because i relate and some of it's because i simply empathize or sympathize anyway thank you so much for watching and i hope you enjoyed the video if you did please don't forget to click that like button if you did please don't forget if you did if you did please don't forget to click that like button and as always have an awesome time until i see you next see ya
