āCome letās watch the skinny kid with a steadily declining mental health, and laugh as he gives you something that he cannot give himselfā has stuck with me for years. Bo is a genius at making poetically sad comedy. Funny with sadness in the eyes

I genuinely hope Bo sees this video. I feel like it's a big sign reading "Bo, your message has been heard.".

I'll say what I've always said. Bo isn't a comic, he's a performer. Every light, every note, every movement is planned down to the millisecond. He's painfully aware of his talent and the exploitation of talent as a whole. He's brilliant absolutely brilliant, and its killing him while we all laugh.

"Poet" finally feels like a good word to describe him.
"Comedy" isn't enough to fit what he does.

āif you can live your life without an audience you should do itā is something that lives in my head a LOT and genuinely informs my decisions at time

I think, 20 or 30 years from now, we'll be using Bo as the example for how this era affected us. He's one of the greatest artistic geniuses of our time, and I just can't wait to keep watching him develop. Whatever he makes, I want to see.

I'll always remember the time I met Bo. It was right before Eighth Grade was set to release in theaters, and my local theater had its posters put up all around outside, on the marquee and everything. I was walking by one day when I saw Bo standing outside the theater. He was just... looking up at the posters, the marquee, with this sort of wistful expression I can't honestly describe as happiness. I can't imagine what must have been going through his head. (I let him have his moment and then managed to catch him for a quick hello as he was walking away; he's a very nice and gracious guy.)

"Come and watch the skinny kid with a steadily declining mental health
And laugh as he attempts to give you what he cannot give himself"
One of the coldest bars in history. Still can't hear it without tearing up a little.

The "I hope YOU're happy" from the end of Make Happy genuinely tore my heart to pieces.

I've been following his work for a long long time. My wife took me to his comedy show when he toured our city. When it was over, she finally realized what I saw in this kid. She's a therapist and saw much deeper things and saw more to him than just jokes. Just like you did. Thank you for your perspective.

This fucking video is exactly what I've been trying to tell people for a long time...
This man is so much deeper than is comedy and he actually uses it to explain messages and try to inform people.

Bo is the intellectual opposite of "ignorance is bliss".
He's so self-aware it sometimes cripples him. It seems like he finds some relief in comedy, but I think what really helps him find peace is pulling the curtain down and showing his audience a perspective they may not have otherwise considered.
Videos exactly like this one prove that his message does get through.

Bo is a great example of the "classroom clown at home" funny when you see him struggling with unfathomable problems when no one's around

"he's always been a great comedian, but he's always been a greater poet."
never heard something that describes an artist so perfectly. bo burnham went from this comical kid to an honest, understanding adult and his works speaks so many truths i feel too many people are afraid to admit

"He's always been a great comedian, but he is an even better poet. This line goes as hard, as it is accurate. Great video!

One of the differences about Bo Burnhamās stuff that didnāt age well is mainly that heās quite clear that heās a young kid that was doing some shock stuff for some quick laughs, yet at the same time heās fully aware of what heās doing . Then, as you said, you just watch him grow artistically and even mentally and itās a crazy journey

8:49 āā¦sort of like making eye contact with sunglasses on.ā
Thereās a lot to love in this video essay but bro thatās low key a brilliant line. Bo would be proud.

He's somehow perfectly explained this deep duality I feel- a hatred I have for what's happening in the world that makes my heart shatter, and the use of comedy as one of the only ways I can fight back against how powerless that world makes me feel.
"Live your life without an audience" was the advice he gave that I've held really near to my heart.

I have cant handle this on my spotify. To this day it always gets me, you can hear Bo's voice tremble, you can hear even through the reverb how his screams are not just singing but are in fact real bursts of angst and anxiety. For those with anxiety you can FEEL the song and then to learn later that he was having a panic attack and that song was a literal cry for help, it was just PURE emotion on stage. The most him he had ever been and it was at one of his lowest scariest career moments. Just literal amazing art that can never be truly recreated.
Edit: Also wanted to praise you and how well you did making this video coherent and fluid. Great job!
