Saw this a few weeks back. I follow this guy for musical theory stuff and to see his reaction reminded me of my own.

This is seriously the best reaction on Youtube! Not only does he get it (the lyrics) but is amazed at the music and presentation. The best YT comment is under this video too:

"Props to you for managing to do a guitar lesson while being assaulted by manic lockdown carnival barker Bo Burnham."

says it all :)

This was so awesome to watch. Talent recognizes talent! Loved seeing him literally become a fan by the end of this video.

Loved this. Coming from a somewhat musical background I had the same reaction as this guy (with much less knowledge of why than he does). My jaw was literally on the floor. Itโ€™s great to see someone who can actually pick it apart piece by piece. Thank you for sharing this!

just nod or shake your head and we'll do the rest welcome to the internet what would you prefer okay i get it uh all right so you got this you got this uh i don't know what you would call this c shanty kind of vibe here d minor [Music] alternating between the root and the fifth [Music] three chord or your relative major f minor [Music] yeah dominant [Music] to your five chord but it's not a minor like you would think it's a seven so for a piece this is harmonic minor again the purpose of harmonic minor is to have a minor key but where you have the leading tone the note one half step below from the root the tonic right make that a major third to make your v chord function with leading tone function this wants to go here so it's about the leading tone going back to the tonal center let's keep going keep going i know a lot of players aren't going to watch this it's just would you like to fight for civil rights or tweet a racial slur be happy be horny be bursting with rage we got a million different ways to engage welcome to the internet put your cares aside here's a tip for straining pasta here's a nine-year-old who died we got movies and doctors and fantasy sports and a

should kill your mom here's why we're midnight okay uh okay first is a tremendous video no wonder this is treading um not just the subject matter which is scarily accurate um but the actual shots the actual video and just the way he looks the way he's presenting it is spectacular like exceptionally well done from a musical perspective i dig the straight up that [Music] straight ahead diatonic melody up and down d minor or f major and when he goes to the five chord he tends to sell it in this spot playing either the root of the fifth of a seven but then this little part where the camera jumps closer and the angle changes he pushes up to like the next basic spot and he's speeding up which is awesome show us pictures of your children tell us every thought you think i love i love i love that it increases in intensity and then the music and the actual shots and where he's looking is changing at the same time when the lyrics start to you know starts to escalate buy up rumors and a death threat to a boomer or dm a girl and groomer do a zoomer find a tumor in your here's a healthy breakfast option you should kill your mom here's why women never [ย __ย ] you here's how you can build a bomb which power ranger are you take this quirky quiz obama sent the immigrants to vaccinate your kids could i interest you in everything all of the time a little bit of everything all of the time that is a great line can i interest you in everything all of the time uh [Music] it's hooky man it's hooky again not known for note apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime anything and everything all of the time no what was that line that was great all of the time a little bit of everything all of the time apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime can i interest you in everything all of the time that's it that's the hook that is the internet that guilty as charged i'm anything and everything all of the time good i interest you in everything all of the time a little bit of everything all at the time apathy is a tragedy and boredom is a crime anything and everything all of the time oh my god he just turned the lights off it's not edited in it's in the room oh it's so good that means like well maybe it doesn't we don't know how we did it but that the other cameras are set up somewhere and it's like hidden in the darkness and you can't tell but the fact that he just grabbed that switch and this seems like he's doing it live take it up a notch [Music] you know it wasn't always like this not very long ago just before your time right before the towers fell circa 99 this was catalogues travel blogs a chatroom or two [Music] oh my god this i love this guy i love this guy it's it's so true i love how he changed the vibe now we haven't changed keys yet right but we started this descending thing so d minor c b flat a7 so again we're pulling from d minor or f major they're the same notes but when we get to the a we're making our c c sharp to get that leading tone to pull back to d we've just started this little descending thing and then hold on a sec right before the towers fell circa 99 this was catalogues travel blogs a chat room or two we set our sights and spent our nights waiting for you no no no no no wait no no we set our sights and spent our nights waiting for you relative so that c dominant there we set our sights and spent our nights waiting for you it's like a piece of that it's like um it's like uh [Music] yeah it's like you're implying c7 because you're because you're like it's like a it's like a um ah this is not really my jurisdiction but this is like a a functioning secondary dominant vibe because you're trying to get to f so now we've switched to the relative major right waiting [Music] for you you insatiable mommy let you use her ipad you were barely two and it did all the things we designed it to do oh this is great mommy let you use her ipad you were barely two and it did all the things this is so good there's so many little musical things that are happening in here that it kind of like goes by the wayside because it's kind of a silly serious song but stop dinging me all right so we modulated not modulated we went to our relative major f right went through that whole thing now we're back into d minor and now we start this descending thing [Music] so great so [Music] as we designed it to do now look at you now look at you oh this is so great so it's d minor your d's are going down chromatically uh right look at you i love though how he laughs and breathes in here [Music] look at you you oh d major leading it so now we modulate right d major now so got your f's turned f sharp [Music] unstoppable your time is now you're inside [Music] man there's some great stuff happening in here uh again i'm not a jazz guy and a lot of you jazz people watching out there will be like michael this is so elementary uh you know like why are you amazed by this well it's because i don't come from that world and as i'm starting to get more comfortable with you know modulations like this and these little um tools if you will to get from one key to another they begin to appreciate it you get to the spot where you are when you get there right it's life so switch to g to d major which now becomes that's your leading tone the five so you got one six two five then it switches up and does the descending thing but it's not on d again [Music] yeah now it's on e minor [Music] yeah what happens when you do this descending thing your e minor keep your g and your b on top and then what is this you're walking down to the major third c sharp of your a right and then that it was always the plan to put the world in your hands [Music] [Laughter] could i interest you in everything all of the time a bit of everything all of the time apathy's a tragedy and boredom is a crime anything and everything all of the time could i interest you in everything a little bit of everything all of the time apathy is a tragedy oh my god absolutely absolute genius um here's what i can say it's so incredibly thought out it's first of all extremely poignant right that is a hundred percent true would you like everything all the time uh apathy is a crime you know we need this to survive right i mean anybody that have kids like like i do i mean literally the fight is to make them be creative and figure out what to do with their minds they don't need everything all the time it is an absolute pandemic in its own right but the melody the voice leading all of the cool key changes switching from minor to parallel major connected with the lyrics with the melody changing with the actual shots in the video not just from where he's focusing but like the actual lights the way it zooms in and out it is so purposeful of course this dude has a netflix show it's way more than just the music bob or bo bo burnham awesome and for everyone that sent this to me thank
