It's finally here! The finale to Make Happy. I really tried to get this one through without any text on the video hoping it wouldn't get blocked, but I just couldn't get around it. Must just be because I included the bit before and the ending song as well. I hope you're happy 🙂 Reaction starts at 0:27

"I can sit here and pretend that my biggest problems are pringle cans..." Me who's watched dozens of people react to this: Ah shit here we go again

The fact that he has spoken to how he cried for hours after this performance, gave up standup for 5 years, and all the other enlightened conversations he’s had about fame and mental health make Bo distinctly one of a kind. Great reactions!

The "I hope you're happy" at the end always gives me chills and hits so hard. The double meaning of a genuine wishing the audience is happy and the sarcastic "I hope you're happy." Man, so sadly beautiful.

I watched him do this live and I fucking lost my composure when he hit the "What he cannot give himself" line, and every time I see someone else react to it for the first time, I'm taken right back to that moment. One of the most gut-punching lines I've ever heard a person speak.

Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to actually show your emotions and upload a video of you getting emotional. I have mad respect for that

The line about his steadily declining mental health has always felt like a knife to the heart. It remains to this day one of the most unexpectedly brutal song lyrics I've heard. And seeing the tears in your eyes as it hit you? One of the best most honest and empathic reactions I've seen to this masterpiece of a song.

After Inside, I can't watch this without becoming emotional

Everytime someone brings up "shut up Bo said it was just a joke," I have to think: "do you seriously not know that 2 things can be both true at once?" Of course it's a joke. It's a comedy special. But of course it also means something deeper. It's a comedy special. If someone asks you point-blank and tells you that they "changed how they saw comedy" based on your work, will you not be tempted to deflect? To self-deprecate? To brush it off and laugh it off? It's too much. It's too sincere. Too self-serving. Too earnest. Of course he said it was just a joke. Of course it also means something deeper.

The "weird jarring shot" is intentional to demonstrate what it's like having an audience

I love the "on a scale from 1 to 0" that changes to a "1 to 2 now" part at the end. No one is ever happy. Because once you get out of complete despair, the 0, suddenly the scale shifts and you see 2 as happiness, and the 1 is no longer good enough.

That last line gives me chills every time. The beautiful double meaning of "I hope you're happy even if I can't be" but also "look what you've done to me, I hope you're happy"

The best thing about your reactions is how much you obviously **get it** I hope you continue with Bo’s stuff. It’s not any less intelligent and amazing the further back you go☺️ PS. Our boy won 3 Emmy’s this week🙌🏻♥️😭

Bo himself has said none of the metaphors were intended, but he also hates talking about his deepest messages in interview, so I tend to think he wouldn't admit it even if they were intended. But art is all about how it speaks to others. And the fact you got the exact same metaphorical meaning that I did makes me think it's intended.

"Oh god, this is gonna be rough, isn't it?" Mhm, yes it is. When you realise this was his last performance before he walked away for 5 years, it has way more impact. He's not lying when he's singing about himself. Bo uses voice effects when he wants to hide his true feelings and almost adds childishness to it, and All eyes on me is the same in that respect. It's the screams at the end of this performance of this that nail me hard every time.

I really just appreciate that you can show emotion on camera.

I openly bawled when I saw Can't Handle This. My family got tired of hearing me play it and sing it idly throughout the day. This one HITS. (The after song is just a twist of the knife and I have no dignity to retain by that point so more tears, obvi)

He does have foot pedals for the autotune and any other audio tricks he usually has the pedals. He used them in Inside as well. Edit: I always start crying at the same exact point that you did when I listen to this song. It's haunting every time.

A simple "thumb up" doesn't seem enough to convey how good your reaction was and how above other reaction channels your fairly recent one already is. I've only been listening to the rant when watching reactions to it but only yours has made me cry again. It's so refreshing to see a combination of insightfulness and emotion knowing how to appreciate an uncommon performance. I don't have that much relevant to add so a "thank you" will have to do. I know that reaction channels can have a bad rep, being seen as the low-hanging fruit, an effortless way of putting content out there but it's not what you're doing and I hope you keep at it because you're too good to waste that ability. 😉 I've been watching you since the very beginning and I intend to continue supporting the channel for as long as you keep reacting to meaningful content.

Cant Handle This is literally my favorite Bo song, and that's saying a lot because he has so many amazing songs.

Bo: Metaphors are just part of the theatrics. People who disagree: We think we know you.

This tour was the year following Robin Williams death. This gives the feeling of watching someone fight the same demons. I have suffered from depression most of my adult life, and the loneliness is one of the hardest parts. This feels like he is combating that by sharing it with his audience. I still cry every time I watch this, partially due to it hitting too close to home, partially out of pure empathy. It's hard watching another human suffer like this

18:57 oh yeah, that's the emotional oof we were waiting for

The part you cry made me cry too man, as much as I tried to keep my shit together that part hits me hard asf that I just couldn't hold it. "Attempts to give you something he cannot give himself" is by far the saddest line I've ever heard. That's where I truly lost it. He is a rare gem this earth doesn't deserve.

A month in the making waiting for this moment. I thought with starting at Inside it was gunna hit at All Eyes On Me, but this is what I realize I was truly here for. Can't Handle This blew me away years ago and it still hits the same. Glad to see someone watch through these specials in this order. Something about knowing what comes of him and coming back to this hits on a whole different level. Been here since day 1 of your Bo journey and look forward to everything else you set out to do here. Been one of the few people to absolutely hit Bo's content nail on the head.

When I first watched this special (the week it came out), I took "Are You Happy" as a "goodbye" kinda message. Not like the dong Goodbye, but like bo literally saying goodbye to us. I remember telling my dad that I thought he might be done with comedy. The message of the song, him walking out to reveal his home, wife, kid - his life. It was like he was asking us to just let him live it. I was sad at the time to see him go, but I was genuinely happy for him. I felt like he was letting us in on something he didn't have to and was doing somethign really good....... Then INSIDE came out....

I’ve seen some really good analyses about “Can’t Handle This” which are very similar to what you said. It does work kind of perfectly because he starts singing about burritos again after the emotional part. You would think that it’s organized that way to make the audience realize the metaphor in the lyrics. But in an interview, Bo said that he saw a lot of people trying to analyze that bit and that maybe subconsciously it means something, but he just meant for it to be silly and can’t give himself THAT much credit lol

There’s an interview he did where he talks about for this tour he wanted all of the shows on it to be this level of a production and that was kind of the benefit of being this level of famous because it meant he could book venues that had the equipment to run the show. Iirc he said this was like a year worth of planning

Honestly, as someone who's been writing for over half their life, I can say for absolute certainty that there are artists out there who sincerely believe that if they're happy or content in their personal lives that they can't be properly creative. Whether they consciously realized it or not, they'd go out of their way to make bad choices that they knew would only wind up hurting them. I remember watching this show when it originally came out and I could feel that those last two songs were a goodbye, even though he didn't come out and say at the time 'hey, I can't take this shit anymore, I fucking quit' to the press or anything - and watching it now, after Inside, it *especially* feels like a goodbye. "On a scale from one to zero, are you happy? 'Cause you're on your own from here, so - are you happy?" Basically saying - you're on your own now, because I'm done, I'm leaving, so I hope this did everything you needed it to, because this is all I've got left. The thing that kills me about Bo is that I think he honestly feels like he could have done more with his life than what he's doing. He's a very brilliant guy and could have gotten a full ride to Stanford or some other Ivy League school if he wanted it, but he did the music thing instead and I get the feeling that he thinks he could have helped more people by doing something more 'respectable' like a doctor or a lawyer or something, but - fuckin', everybody needs to laugh. And he's got such a gift for it - like, writing a good song is *hard* and writing a good comedy song is even harder but writing a good comedy song that's catchy as fuck but also very emotionally vulnerable and raw while *still being funny* is... well, let's just say there's a reason why Bo is such a standout - because basically nobody else can do exactly what he does. There's actually even deeper lore you can find in his special that came before Make Happy, called what. Definitely a good next stop on the Burnham Express! Awesome reaction as always, Chris! :D

The moment a lot of people have been waiting for, this is going to be a tough one to go through all over again. Thanks for upping the volume on your vids btw, much better! Edit: Yup, still hits right in the feels like a truck. I'm glad you also noticed the screams he made didn't seem very scripted, I haven't dug deep in the special to find out if they were but towards the end it did actually feel like he may have been having a panic attack, even if just a small one.

The silhouette dance always reminds me of a line from another of Bo's songs where he's like "DANCE MONKEY DANCE" and it just makes it that much sadder. That that's how he thinks the audience sees him as this dancing monkey and his being vulnerable isn't what they really want, they just want him to dance.

The way I've always seen the whole "On a scale from one to zero, are you happy?" question is that at first he's asking it like it's a binary choice; you're either completely happy or you're not. You can't possibly be happy if you are at all unhappy. The second time, with "On a scale from one to two now, are you happy?" being asked, you acknowledge that there is a baseline of happiness. It's not always happy-happy, but it's something. If you were truly un-happy with *everything* in your life, you wouldn't be here, or you'd need serious, professional help. So are you happy (the happy you are when nothing is really happening), or are you happier (a little better than how you normally are)? It's a small change, but just from being able to go from "on or off" to "something or something more" is all people need sometimes to keep from ending it all. Because yeah, there'll be times where you're not going to be happy about things. There'll be times where you are going through your own hell, and nothing will seem right, and everything will seem like it's shit because the world is falling apart and your life sucks. *But* is there at least *ONE* thing in your life you can still find joy in? Can still find meaning in? And can you build off of that? That's what the difference between "On a scale from one to zero, are you happy?" and "On a scale from one to two now, are you happy?" is for me. It's being able to go from "a sense that happiness is either completely on or completely off" to "there's always something to be happy for, and maybe you can work with that and make a little more happiness while you're here".

Finally someone who gets it. I can't describe how relieving it is to watch a bo burnham reaction without 90% of it going over the rector's head. I love that you emotionally got it too - f**kin kudos, man ❤️

He controlled EVERYTHING on stage.... Story telling, Scene placement, Script, Song writing, Auto-tune, I believe he is even controlling the lighting... Dude is amazing.... Edit: I've seen this maybe 20 times... I tear up every time knowing what I know about Bo. You got a new sub brother, Great GENUINE reaction!

I regularly come back to re-watch this video. Your reaction is so pure. In a weird way I find it cathartic to share it with you. Those same feelings we both, we all have.

I’m in class doing research on Bo Burnham and I’m on the edge of crying when he said “come and watch the skinny kid with a steadily declining mental health and laugh as he attempts to give you what he can’t give himself” BROOOO HE’S SO AMAZING

That moment when Inside opens everyone's eyes to how incredible Bo is... when you've been crying to this song for 5 years...

I got CHILLS when he walked into that room at the end, I instantly recognized it from Inside and I gasped! I watched the first minute of inside after this scene and it made me cry, like he ended Make Happy going out of the room being seemingly happy but started Inside going back into the room and we watch him spiral into depression. Also i'm glad i'm not the only person who had an emotional reaction to this song, i'm sure those of us who suffer from panic attacks and anxiety relate heavily to Bo's work. Side note your reaction videos are awesome!

23:45 as a guy who's always told how funny he is by family and coworkers, i believe that to be very true. I deal with depression and anxiety as well so i know what it feels like to be so down and feel so hopeless. I wouldn't wish depression or such heavy sadness on anyone. So I personally strive to make others smile and laugh every day i'm here. So they can enjoy something. I love to share laughs with others. Comedy really helps to laugh through it all

On a scale of 1 to 0, this reaction was a 10 for me. Interpret that as you will. Thanks for giving me something extra to look forward too every day!

This is the appropriate reaction to Bo. Not just laugh, not just intelligent and/or abstract analysis, but all the above plus deep emotional introspection. He's more than a comedian or entertainer. He's unmatched. Adoring Bo is to crave more content from him but simultaneously to not want him to create any because of what it takes out of him. He's the performer of our generation.

I've been a Bo fan for years so I've seen this special a long time ago, but I recently just started watching these reacts and it's incredible how quickly he can make people go from laughing to crying. In my opinion that's what "art" is supposed to do and he is a genius.

In my opinion, there are two kinds of good reactions. Some reactors are just generally really good at the genre because they are both fairly expressive and analytical. Additionally, some reactors, regardless of whether they’re generally good or bad at reacting, pair especially well with certain artists simply because that artist resonates with them in a way that organically and perfectly captures the beauty the artist’s fans experience with that artist. Both of these descriptions apply to you, and that’s what makes this the absolute best reaction to this song for me. And I’m ashamed to admit: I’ve seen countless. Thank you for sharing.

Great reaction, I remember the first time I saw this it felt like such a gut punch. There’s interviews (search Bo Burnham anxiety there’s a few) where he talks about his panic attacks and how well he was able to hide them and how he would have an out of body experience. I’m not sure if he was having one during this performance (but there are live videos where you can clearly see him having one) but he did say in an interview that he walked offstage after this and broke down sobbing. I think his strength is his ability to convey honesty through his *performance* of honesty. He’s able to I think be MORE vulnerable because he’s being deliberate about what he shows. With all of his stuff I think it’s not that he’s not being honest I just think there’s a level of performance to it that is important. And this was the last time we saw him perform until Inside.

The reaction of someone who didn't need it to be run one more time.

This was why I subbed since the first video I saw of yours. Every break down I feel is always so spot on. You are who Bo wishes all his fans were.

I think the "Thank you, good night, I hope you're happy" line is a throwback to "And watch as he attempts to give you what he cannot give himself", he was talking about happiness

When I watched INSIDE for the 1st time it had been a while since I’d seen Make Happy and now that I put the 2 endings together INSIDES ending is so much deeper. Both specials end with Bo in this room with sunlight coming through the door. In Make Happy he walks out into the sunshine to be with the people he loves and it even seems he’s becomes happy. With INSIDE however he exits the room likely hoping for the same result he got 5 years ago, for things to get better maybe even have a happy ending, until the sun goes out and the stage light comes on. He may be out, but he is not happy.

"This is gonna be tough isn't it?" Me: he he he he buckle up buddy

"Now we're all the same" while the stage lights are turned off and the common lights are turned on to show everyone. One of the lines that stuck to me ever since watching Make Happy. It's a very humanizing moment.

The fact that this got you got me too. It's heartbreaking that he went through this and it's genius that he took us along for the ride. Man or woman, you can't help but fall in love with the human inside Bo Burnham. That's his legacy. He reminded us that we are human.

I think a really big "it all comes together" moment, is that, at the start, he said "If you can live your life without an audience, do it." And then, at the end, he walks away from the camera, toward his girlfried and dog, and they all walk off camera together. Living their life without an audience.

Chris, I appreciate you crying. I thought I was the only guy this brought to tears. I've never watched this without crying. I can't even think about it without choking up. So thanks.

As someone that suffers from severe anxiety and depression this is a song I come back to often. It reminds me, through all the silliness, that I'm not alone. Other people have these issues and if they can survive, so can I.

I totally get teared up during parts of this too. Reminds me of another great line from Bo - “My empathy is really bumming me out”

I've watched dozens of reactions to Bo and this song, but I started tearing up right there with you

With the burrito metaphor, you could say he just wanted a little bit of everything all of the time.

I’ve showed so many friends this performance and none of them understood it the way you did. Thank you for this reaction.

The frustration I feel now after watching inside and rewatching his old work … the underlining meaning behind his end performance… he gave this true emotional speech about his fear of the audience his unhappiness, struggles with mental health and then too ‘I’ll shut up and do my job’ carries on burritos chorus and the laughing and cheering continues as soon as the switch to a moment of comedy … like everything he just said was forgotten because it’s back to being funny so just laugh. I feel awful

You are definitely better at interpreting metaphors than pretty much anyone else I've seen. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Dude, you didn't say a word at the end there but that was, without a doubt, the single most visceral reaction to this song I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot of them, earned my sub and respect ten fold man...whoa...

i appreciate you watching the finale in context with the rest of the show. the impact is much harder when you get the monologue before and then followed by the closing song. it's a perfect medley

I always thought of "tilting the Pringles can" part was a metaphor for you try your hardest and "Life" hits you in the face.

The little "oh no" at 18:07 is so relatable. The moment in a bo burnham song where you realise you're about to get your heart squeezed

You nailed it with the burrito metaphor. I think the pringle can metaphor is about fitting into a tight knit role - expectations that are unreasonable.

For me, the entire song is about his mental health, I don't think the Pringles bit is unrelated either. The entire song is about containers, and not being able to fit everything in and ends with a mention of it being a mess. I interpret it as the Pringles can is him trying to resolve his issues himself which he's unable to do, the container won't fit what he's trying to put inside of it and the end result is that it all goes spilling everywhere, in the next verse he goes to see a professional (Chipotle "dude you're an expert, you should have warned me") and even they aren't able to help him, the container (tortila) is too small for all the issues he's trying to deal with simultaneously and the end result is that it just bursts out everywhere again, then he enters the part where he's just straight up honest in telling his audience that he can't handle it anymore and that instead of trying to deal with everything at the same time, and contain all the things that are contributing to his unhappiness he knows he needs to go away and take his break to work on himself.

The Pringle’s can is totally a metaphor. How as a kid you don’t have the problems you get as you grow up. The burrito thing is more obviously a metaphor. It’s about taking on more than you realize you can handle, but not quitting out of pride and self-consciousness digs yourself in deeper.

Thank you for this. I watch so many reactions of this to see if anyone got hit as hard as I did, and it was always difficult seeing people laughing through it.

Your reactions to Bo’s content are, by absolutely no small margin, the best on the platform. Your skills of perception and genuine interest in the subject matter keeps me coming back. Thanks for all of your work and I look forward to seeing more from your channel.

pringles bit - I can't get everything I want and it gets messy if i try? chipotle - I got everything but its way too much, it doesn't fit and its overwhelming?

Fuck. I'm so surprisingly pleased with your reactions, mate. Out of all the reactions I've seen of Bo's performances, you've been the one who gets him the most, the one who really understands what he's saying.

I don't know if anyone said this but when he was moving his body towards the end and screamed he was legit having a anxiety attack and him screaming was what got him through the show. He went back stage after that and cried for 2 hrs then quit for 5 years

Bo's specials really give you an abstract sense of happiness.

"hey look ma I made it, are you happy" is such a gut punching line

You killed this reaction. Been waiting for someone to hear it the way I did. Thank you

His panic attacks started in "What" in 2013 and this show was his last due to his panic becoming more severe! He couldn't stop sobbing after this show and he had to go out of the spotlight after this due to it becoming too much! He had ignored constant panic attacks on stage for 3 years.

"on a scale from 1 to 0, are you happy?" hapiness isn't a binary, I'm never just happy or not happy, it's a big grey area

3 time Emmy award winner Bo Burnham and he is up for more in the primetime awards when they air :) - If Burnham wins just one more award on Sept. 19, he will join a very small group of people who have received four Emmys in one year. Only three other people have reached this impressive achievement before. He also could be nominated for a Grammy because of how well his music did from Inside.

That last bit of the Kanye Rant always hits so close to home for me. I have been severly depressed for years to the point of a Hospital Stay but in my Friend Group but in my Friend Group i am the one that makes everyone laugh and I instantlly connect with people thru Humor. He just stabbed a fucking Knife in my Heart the first time i heard that song

Holy shit man. You pointed out a lot of small details I never even noticed about Can’t Handle This, and I really try to pay attention to his music. Like the silhouette thing. I just really appreciate how much you really think about his music, and the other aspects of his show. I relate to it, I guess. His music means a lot to me and I wish more people would be as introspective and thoughtful and well-meaning as he is. The world would be a better place.

18:37 This is the visual representation of me watching this for so many times but still readying myself cause I know I'll still cry throughout the performance. This is the most genuine reaction I've seen for this song. ✨

Make Happy left me speechless and stunted. I didn't even know what I was feeling but it was just devastating honestly.

Whenever I start to feel that I'm absolutely alone in this world, I find myself gravitating back to Bo Burnham content. Specifically the Can't Handle This rant video and the All Eyes on Me video. I've always been a notorious song-repeater, but these two songs are the record holder for most played in my 31 years of life. About a year ago, I scrolled though the comments underneath Can't Handle This for the first time ever. Let's just say, I suddenly didn't feel so absolutely alone anymore. This was my first time watching a reaction video of any of Bo's content. Thank you for being comfortable enough and allowing yourself to be vulnerable. So much respect for you and this community of like minded human beans ♡

The way I interpreted it was that it was referencing his life in multiple ways. The first Pringle part is just jokes without any real underlying message like his early career, then comes the burrito part which I interpret as both him talking about taking on too many things in life and is also the second part of the act where he has moved to making jokes with a hidden layer just like he started doing in his career. Then the third part he becomes real and drops the jokes and comes straight out with the message, but then feels like no one wants to hear that and goes back to masking his opinions in a layers of humour and metaphor at the end. Also when the big backlight comes up behind him and he goes back to the burrito metaphor joke he literally becomes a shadow of himself due to the lighting.

I don't know about the Pringle Can song but the Burrito song is about his life and being famous and all the consequences of it since he became famous pretty young and how that affected his mental health, depression, anxiety and panic attacks. At the end of one of this shows (I dont know if it was the netflix one) I was having a panic attack during the ending song, and that's when He quit performing

Maybe the Pringle cans is actually a metaphor for how he has the fame and money but is unhappy. Like he has it all but can't quite reach happiness.

i love how easily you show your emotion on camera, makes me feel like i’m not alone, one of the best reaction channels out there for sure, take my word on it🖤

I always found the Chipotle bit to bean analogy for his fame, not knowing what it was going to be like and maybe his agent or someone with experience not warning him about what it would be like. Listening to it now I'm seeing the pringles bit as a metaphor for his happiness in performing. He can get the first few chips no problem and he's happy but then it starts to get harder to get the same satisfaction from it so he tries tilting the can into his mouth and ends up with a face full of crumbs that he didn't sign up for

Seriously another great reaction. Make Happy is something my friend always wanted me to watch but I put it off for like 3 years and I became obsessed with Bo. I didn't realize he had taken his hiatus during this time and so I was really disappointed that there wasn't anything new from him. Inside sparked a new desire for Bo's content and I've been insatiably watching anything I can with him in it. I've probably watched like 30 reactions to this song alone and I gotta say yours is easily one of the best. You've got something, I think a level of understanding and empathy that most people don't. Maybe those other people don't know the context like you do going into it but you're personality is so relatable and I'm glad youtube randomly recommended your channel several weeks ago. Anyways thanks for being you and I look forward to your next series.

Can't Handle This still makes me cry just like it did the first time i heard it 5 years ago. Such an incredible performance from Bo.

Most people have attributed that interpretation to the Chipotle verse and I really like that interpretation, but apparently he said in an interview that the Pringle and Chipotle verses were written with no deeper meaning

Man watching you react to Bo is so raw and beautiful. You reacted the same way I think a lot of us did when hearing this for the first time (and many times after). Appreciate you being this candid and open with your reactions because these songs definitely make us vulnerable and hit a note inside us we knew was there but maybe couldn’t put into words. It’s nice to see and know others who struggle with their anxieties and issues get the same feelings from Bo’s music. Keep up the great work buddy.

I forget where i heard it but my favorite interpretation of the Pringles and the burrito thing is this - Bo has anxiety and when you’re in a bad place mentally even something as small as not being able to fit your hands in a pringles can or getting a messy burrito can push you over the edge into a panic attack because those little problems go around and around in your head over and over again. With that in mind it makes sense why he repeatedly mentioned the same thing about seemingly little problems.

Man I don't even know how many times I've rewatched these. I really hope you're happy man. Love your work!

I can't be the only one that was like "just let it play, you'll understand in a minute"

Now you should give All Eyes On Me a second watch

I’m so happy I found this reaction video. You totally get the depth and I love that it showed how much this moved you emotionally

I've just discovered your videos and omg I just felt so connected to your reation... It was just how I felt 5 years ago watching this for the first time and how I feel when I revisit this performance. For me this is his best work. And watching you and how much you get it was really special. Thank you for showing your raw reaction and your emotions. Truly truly loved this.

Awesome bro, this video single handedly redeemed the reaction genre for me, which I thought was too far gone but having just found your content its so great to see someone who actually discussed the art and the emotions, and isn’t afraid to show their own. Earnt a new subscriber 👊

WOW, dude, this was your best reaction by far, I have seen "Can't Handle This" a billion times before and yet still I cried right along with you, that was Epic man. I love this act so much, it's truly one of the most amazing things I've ever witnessed. it's pure magical genius... he worked on this show for 3 years, if that's not dedication for his craft, I don't know what is, it's epic You were absolutely spot on with your analyses as watched this, Bo is obviously a great entertainer, performer, singer piano player, artist, but even beyond all that, he is a great educator as well, yes I am sure his performances go over the heads of many people in this world for various reasons, but what Bo does is makes everyone think on much deeper level than what humanity is largely lacking of these days for many reasons as well. but that's another story for another day, I could literally go on for days on some of the reason why this is but for now, I'll spare ya of all that. What Bo is experiencing here and what he is expressing so well is also known as Duality, Bo touch's on this a bit in his Act "Right Brain Left Brain" it's the war within, the thing is, we all experience this, however, on Bo's level as a performer, this duality war is magnified 1000 fold and this can be quite destructive to ones health. there is another word that describe describe this human condition, it's a Hopi Indian word (Koyaanisqatsi) which means "Life out of Balance" There is a lot to unpack with all this and I could go on and on and on for days, weeks even months about all this and what are some of the major social constructs that both build us up and at the same time, keep us down, their are many forces all around us, some known and some that remain invisible to some people that direct or dictate how humanity behaves. Anyway, thank you so much for this reaction, awesome job, really heart felt and real and we can't ask any more than that. You have a very kind soul and kinder heart. Peace.
