Bo was too young when he got famous. He didn’t know the mental complications to come.. he is the burrito. He wished someone would have told him what he was getting into.. it’s a very sad song and if you watch him throughout the years you will see his struggle through each performance. Much love

The pringle "Hand in a can." The chipotle, "I wouldn't have gotten half of it." All eventually tied into the inner-monologue where he says that people, "don't even get the half of it," and he claims that, "I don't think that I 'Can' 'Hand'le this right now." Dude runs deep. He's a genius.

The bottom of the Pringles can is where happiness is. He can't reach the bottom. If he had a daughter, her hand could fit and he could be happy. "Then I would finally have someone around the house that could fit their hand inside a Pringles can." The burrito is his mental state and the ingredients are all the things that come with fame and fortune. He suffers from mental breakdowns and panic attacks regularly. The ingredients spilling out is a metaphor for his breakdowns and no one warned him about the mental stress of fame and fortune. "I wouldn't have got the lettuce if I knew it would fit, I wouldn't have got the cheese if I knew it wouldn't fit, I wouldn't have got the peppers if I knew it would fit, I wouldn't have got half of it." That's also the reason he says, "... and if they still don't understand it then you run it one more time." He would have never become famous if he would have known the mental toll it would take on him. This was his last performance for 5 years until he released Inside.

@@hansTowns the thing with the burrito metaphor was his conversation with his therapist. The "expert" for rolling a burrito was giving him alot of things to process because that is what he wants. The tortilla is the metaphor for his life, and the ingredients were ingredients in life... Projects... And at one point Bo was taking in so much project more than his singular life can handle. Projects that his "expert" therapist advising him to do. Bo taking too much projects as per doctor's advice were weighing on his mental health instead of making him more active and less depressed...

If you're human, actually human, listening to someone bear their soul.. you can't help but respect and appreciate it.

Just for a little extra context Bo was struggling with Anxiety and was experiencing panic attacks on stage. This was his last performance before he took a 5 year break from performing live. At some point he said in an interview that after this show ended he just went backstage and cried for 2 hours. He talks a bit about it on All Eyes on Me, from the Inside special. The Inside special itself is largely a look into his struggles with being forced into isolation from the lock downs that had happened. I personally highly recommend it if you haven't seen it.

I had a rough point in my life, isolated myself for 4 years, and was about to go back into work, then Covid happened. I was already spun into a deep depression and needed a job to take care of a cat that given due to last owners gave him up to me. He needed a home, and a friend. I didn't have money. I needed him and he needed me. I got into schooling for 2-3 years with money for my little friend. And before I got to go into work, my little friend was old, and had kidney disease.... And passed away before I got work. I was in isolation on and off for 8 years.

This is one of the very best works of Bo. And also very typical of his style. To make comedic songs with very real and often painful undertones. He likes to lead you on a seemingly funny journey to then expose you to a problem, issue or feeling he is centering the song around. But he never lingers too much, just enough to break the "veil" for a second, make your heart skip a beat. Absolute masterclass. Also his lyrics are often very metaphorical. In this case, the funny part can also be interpreted as his career in a way. The Pringles scheme being entertainment industry, and how difficult to get into that and succeed, and when you do, it often blows back on you. While the Burrito scheme can be understood as him making it into the industry and trying to get everything out of it that spirals out in the end. And if someone told him how a lot of that would not fit in his life, he wouldn't have gotten any of that. So all in all, wonderful piece by Bo. I'd love to see your take on some of his other stuff if you feel like taking a break from bars every now and then. Good content again, keep it up! peace

"Inside" is a masterpiece, but is kind of tough for reactors. You can either watch it beginning to end as one should for the full experience, but for a reaction video that means a whole lot of cuts and basically just a highlight reel of reactions, which is almost always a bad idea. Or, you can do the individual songs or at least the more popular ones, one for each video, which is what most do, and that works well enough, but you also kind of miss an entire layer of the whole thing that way, the bits in between the songs, the struggle and the narrative etc. That being said, from the songs you gotta check out All Eyes On Me, almost directly references this one or more specifically the time period. Then musts are "How the world works", "Welcome to the internet", "Comedy" for example. They'll make for good content if you've clocked on to the fact that there's a whole lot more to this guy than there seems to be at first glance.

@@hmthatsniceiguess2828 Oh yeah absolutely, I actually didn't mean he had to watch Inside for a reaction video, but for himself. He could react to a few parts of it though, as you mentioned. 'All eyes on me' is a good one for sure, 'Welcome to the internet' would be another one, and 'White woman's instagram' for a funny reaction. I think he could watch the whole show to enjoy the full experience, record his reaction but then split it into a few videos with only the best parts, that could work.

I haven't seen one person not see it deeply

the ending you can sincerely feel himself crippling and shaking and the third scream really showed it

You mentioned all the things you liked at the end, I think one thing you didn't mention but you may still agree, was the lighting. He did an excellent job setting up the mood and atmosphere with the lights as he transitioned into each part, starting from the first few seconds when he's talking to the crowd. He then says "I've got a lot of sh*t to say" and the lights go off in that moment and the crowd fades away, and the obvious amazing lights as he kneeled with the spotlights converging on him, and the following with gold lighting silhouette. Ending in a fade to black.

Impressive & deep reaction!!! One of the best ones I've seen to this performance. It's so profoundly sad & haunting to this day. You got it SO right, all of the aspects - even the Kanye impression, which a lot of youtube reactors just look over. I understand the chills; the first time I saw this I had no idea what was coming & did not have any context - and I actually cried at the end. I was so shocked, it was so unexpected and hit even harder after the comedic part.

So happy you got into this one! I love all your reactions, but I really hope you do more Bo!

Glad your doing Bo content again. Theres a lot you would enjoy including raps (like words,words,words)

“Comedians be having demons” is the most factual thing I’ve ever heard from any reactor I’ve heard on the thousands I’ve seen. I’m a comedy promoter and have been around comics my whole life. Most artists do but comics most of all. Look at the people who are the best comics, they are almost all Irish, Jewish, Black (think about all your favorite comics). The type of people who hold in their demons and let them loose. Watch “Rothanial” by Jerrod Carmichael (directed by Bo).

I think when you're bullied as a kid (i was), you expect anyone who "looks better" than you to continue to bully you. I was terrified to go to the gym, even though I wasn't even overweight. Social pressures are so agonizing... I totally understand Bo's fears of going to the gym

Bo ended up having a panic attack during this performance. He was saying in an interview the 3rd scream was not planned at the end. When he went back stage he was in tears.

That was incredible. Never seen that side of Bo before, only seen the funny side. Bro is a true artist.

This was a great reaction. Thank you. I have also loved your Harry Mack and Chris Stapleton reactions. I'm going to have to look through your channel more thoroughly. Thanks again.

Soooo excited to see you check Bo out! Please keep going, there's SO MUCH content! Authentic, funny, thought provoking! You'll love it!

Oh hell yeah bro been waiting for this one! 🔥

I appreciate Stevie so much for his understanding and empathy in this reaction. You’re right - BARS! These bars bleed. Homie went back stage and wept hard for two hours straight after this performance and quit performing for 5 years.

This much anticipated reaction did not disappoint! Thanks Stevie!

He did kind of a follow up song to this song on his new album, the song is "All Eyes On Me". Also I think you'd like "Art is Dead" and "Welcome to the Internet".

This was such a genuine reaction. Thank you stevie. I've always had the feeling the final light show and round of I can't handle this is a good metaphor for a anxiety attack. It's beautiful and painful all at once.

IDK why but it does.. lol.. just being honest

10:28 - 10:50 That part was so deep. He gave me chills. So real! It also took me back to Kanye’s 2016 concert whilst he vented about everything he was feeling at that time/had to get it off his chest. No he wasn’t crazy! He was talking to the people, I heard every word. But so many didn’t. Bo is EXTREMELY talented. This is the 1st time I’ve ever heard of him. Thx so for this Stevie. 🙏🏼✌🏼

I used to hit the gym all the time in highschool but stopped going for a few years after I graduated and it was hard to go back because I felt a type of way after falling out of shape.

Really love your content man great reaction please keep it coming

I been watching you for a while, and this performance has been a personal favorite for years. Love to see you giving it the respect it deserves!

you ever listen to a song that gives you chills and makes you think hard... thats all of Bo's music and shows, he is a genius

Hey I've been requesting this for a while. So glad you saw it and reached the same conclusion. "Inside" is worth a watch, even if not for the channel. PS watch this again JUST observing the lighting. Not only is he controlling it live (along with audio effects), but there is a lot of meaning to the lighting.

I think you nailed the analysis for this

Bo is amazing. He is the youngest comedian to ever have a solo stand up special on comedy central (19). He preformed live until he was 25 in which he was have panic attacks and anxiety. "Kayne Rant" was his last song before he walked off stage and out of the spotlight for 5years. Until, he came out with "Welcome to the Internet", as well as a few others, and "Inside"(Netflix special) last year. "Art is Dead", "God's Perspective", "Repeat stuff", "Words Words Words" are all older and better in my opinion. You have a lot of videos you could make with Bo Burnham's work. I'm here for it. He has a nice rabbit hole of content you could watch for a while and people will come to watch it. Bo Burnham.

Great reaction man.
