Thank you all so much for the very nice comments, here are some answers to some frequent ones: 1. “You’re” is a joke. The old lyric videos were always full of spelling mistakes. 2. “Buy a broomer,” I think I realised while I was editing that it was “buy a broom or” but I had already googled what a broomer was so I stuck to that. 3. Any reference that you think is a reference is indeed a reference. 4. Thank you everyone who has gone on to check out the rest of the stuff on my channel after watching this. Although I’d warn you that most of my stuff isn’t really like this, I always try and put care and thought into everything. 5. If you have done your own animation of this song or any of the other songs from the special, please leave them in a reply to this comment. I’d love to see them! And finally, yes. I did want to insinuate there may be a link between Clippy and certain world events.

I like how the voice of the internet is portrayed by screens and apps instead of a person/humanoid figure. it really adds to that disconnected feeling and how you’re the only one that is actually reacting to these things- the internet doesn’t care about your feelings (hence the chilling laugh breaking the emotional moment)

My parents would ride bikes halfway across town to talk to their friends, look up answers to questions at the library, and fall asleep reading a book under the covers.

Another thing, the way it's presented allows communication to internet users as well. At first, it's comedic and satirical to the insanity of the internet and that gets our attention and gets us to side with the video instead of against it early on. And the girl's POV made the video more personal and it feels more like "What the internet has done to me" rather than "What the internet does to kids". It makes the viewers respond with "Same" rather than "Ok boomer".

I like how the “start a rumor” video is modeled exactly after those exploitative “tea spill” channels to perfection

The girl was scared of reality. The internet starts laughing at her like a villain, knowing she's here because of a sad reality. It knows her weakness (it even onows everything about her). And then the song speeds up implying that she's viewing tons of content and can't stop. It spams a ton of content to distract her from real world. It perfectly portrays addiction

The part where it shows all of those videos perfectly encapsulates the meaning of the song, being over stimulated with everything the internet has to offer.

This is incredible. It really shows how our entire generation was given access to the internet way to young. And when the girl was facing the problems of the world and retreated to the internet, is sad but true. We were all raised here, we all had parents, yet the internet told us things they wouldn’t dare say. It’s sad, sadly true.

I really appreciate the face you made with the apps, it really pushes the feeling of an algorithm trying to sympathize with you. An uncanny valley situation. Not to mention how you really nailed how overwhelming the internet is, with the flashing images, clickbait news articles, and the barrage of saturated videos.

It's a villain song. It's an abusive relationship, an addiction, your only friend, seemingly inescapable, and all in the palm of your hand. *Just like a little man and his ring.*

This represents the internet as some sort of ai that was designed to be helpful, but misinterpreted its programming and became evil, which is actually pretty accurate.

i love the detail of adding an implication of the black rounded bar at the top of the “screen” starting around 4:04 (which is a more recent yet almost universal feature to newer phones), which makes it so the app face’s “eyes” are slightly obscured and more sinister. i also love how it comes just after the scene with the girl being overwhelmed by the real world and retreating to her phone for some peace, because that’s what many younger people have come to rely on for comfort their whole lives, and for good reason. but instead of comfort, it only maniacally laughs in your face and creates more overwhelm, wanting you to want it for all it offers while simultaneously using that information to exploit you and suck you in more. i know this is a (genius) feature of the song itself, but your representation of it really added something that made it hit even deeper and feel more personal. you hit exactly why i loved Bo’s special, because everything about each piece was so intentionally crafted to communicate those feelings. you didn’t just animate a song, you added more complexity and nuance to it that wasn’t there before, and that makes you a true artist. i would be interested to see your animated interpretations of other songs from Inside, or even ones from other specials (Left Brain Right Brain?). i especially think your style and tone would fit well with the song “Comedy” because of its similar tone of a light, quick pace with an undercurrent of seriousness. looking forward to seeing more from you!!

Yeah ngl guys the boomers and grandparents were right, technology has rotted our brains it’s why newer generations are so weak and sensitive and why we have so many problems with mental illness and it’s why everyone is politically divided nowadays etc. this is coming from a dumb zoomer who was born in 2005 and grew up with technology all around himself 24/7. But I believe we can heal these deep wounds and stop this never ending painful cycle by not letting our kids go through the same hell. well…..it’s either we stop it or the nuclear bombs stop it and thus will begin the great reset of humanity

This was such a perfectly done animation. You're brilliant! It matches with the music video and music itself so well. How everything leads to the internet manipulating you. I feel like people's emotions have been dulled from the internet and the end with the zoom up of the emote going from happy to :| was brilliant. A masterpiece.
