Admitting you're obese doesn't contribute to your physical health it simply proves that you're aware of the issue and (if no action is taken) unwilling to change. In other words it doesn't make him less of a sellout but that's ok we'll still clap and stare
i love this song because he is stepping from the usual songs to basically admit from the side of fame, that they are basically all sellouts...which is why he is less of one
You can't compare a stand-up comic with a musical comic they're are two different types of comedians. I love both of them I don't really care what people on the internet have to say so maybe people should just shut the fuck up and enjoy the damn video!!! please and thank you :)
Can we please stop talking about other comedians that aren't Bo Burnham? It's his video, and if it's not about him then how is it relevant? Give Mr. Burnham his moment. I personally like Dane Cook but I'm not going to be like "OMGosh he is so much like Dane Cook, or whatever."
Bo is a lyrical genius. He is true too himself an always performs with the same intensity because each word he crafted means something too him. Everyone quit arguing. This guy is so young, he will only get better and I hope soon he really makes it big time.
Why are people talking about Dane Cook? I don't have a problem with him, but he doesn't compare to Bo, and his name certainly doesn't deserve to be spread over the comments of a video of Bo, so quit it.
Everybody has their own opinion on who they think is a good comedian. Just listen to Bo if you are listening to one of his songs. You don't have to go and bash some other comedian.
@GageThePopsicleEater Thankyou for finally bringing the comments back towards Bo (who we all know is amazing) and away from other miscellaneous comedians (who may or may not be good at what they do). Sanity is restored
All you people talking about Dane Cook and what comedy is need to just shut the fuck up and enjoy the song. I don't like him but i don't do around bitching about it on a Bo Burnham song. Seriously, the ones that are arguing he sucks are just as bad as the ones that say he's good, so just fucking enjoy the song and leave you douches.
I am British and so I have been unaware of Dane Cook's existence up until now. I read the argument about him and then youtube'd him.
In conclusion, all I will say is that whoever claimed Dane Cook was a funny man, and then sparked off this whole stream of hate for themselves and Dane Cook. You owe me all 531 excruciating seconds of my life that I wasted listening to the constant flow of shit that came out of Dane Cook's mouth.
I also accept cash if that is easier than giving time back to me.
Dane Cook is a comedian? Comedians are not people who compensate their bad jokes by screaming at the top of their lungs to get cheap laughs. Audiences like him because they are, like him, uneducated and don't know any better. He's a good cameo or "fill in" type, like in Waiting, but not a stand up comedian. He's horrible, please don't attribute intelligence to him because it's a mistake.
@Flashee9s Dane Cook being horrible is all in your opinion. Everyone laughs at different things, and has different senses of humor. I happen to love Bo Burnham and also Dane Cook. A good comedian is a person that you can relate to, and that is mainly what makes you laugh. That, is my opinion though. Dane Cook happens to scream to express the meaning of the situation he is referring to. All intentions in each joke are made differently. I will attribute my intelligence where ever I feel like.
@Flashee9s there are no "bad" comedians... as you may know comedy is different for everybody...some like loud comedy...some like comedy done on piano like bo burnham but if you are going to call people stupid or uneducated for liking a certain type of comedy. us people who like dane cook do not really care about your opinion seeing as your a jerk.
@BardocksSynphony "your a jerk" Did I not say uneducated people enjoy Dane Cook? GG. Thanks for proving my point. And before you say "oh it's online rah rah rah I don't need grammar etc etc" - it takes no longer to hold Shift for less than half a second, or to hit an extra key. Don't be lazy, be accurate.
@Flashee9s Lmfao, I enjoy Bo Burnham and Dane Cook, and I`m not undeducated :) Dane cook just likes life and has fun :) It`s not like he tries so hard, he`s just kind of himself, just like Bo Burnham :P People are so critical
@Flashee9s I think he is funny in a laughing at him way. He is like one of the drunk people you make fun in a bar. Or that one guy you can get to do anything, like ride a billards table off of a roof into a swimming pool.
SeeThroughWindows epic fail, this is about comedy and how he's not respected by comedians. "So people think you're funny, how'd you get those people's money, we are rolling in dough while (george)carlin rolls in his grave. George Carlin is a comedy god who died in 2008.
i think he was sick or something in this one. it looked like and sounded like he was having a hard time pushing it out and he kept putting his shoulder to his ear. pulled it off good though, glad he made it threw
@samschaust we all have our opinions, I left one guy out who is better than all 3 listed Louis CK. I like Dane cook's comedy because he's not afraid to make a fool out of himself, like Bo mentions all new comedians are making Carlin roll in his grave while they roll in money just for never growing up and maturing.
@MrWwefan15 yes but dane cook steals material from other comedians. and when he performs it most of the time it ends up being drawn out and unfunny. his Burger King bit is pretty good and he has some other original stuff, but otherwise if people want to hear genius stand up they need to go watch people like Louis CK, Patton Oswalt, Ricky Gervais and others like them.
@samschaust No he's not, and who are you to say that he's bad. He has had more pussy than your mom when she had you. Also, he's got more money than you can dream of so before you go downgrading comments. Go and look at the person in which your downgrading....
@xaznboixd actually I have heard of them. I've never seen Dave Chapelle's work but I feel he is epic from what I've heard and Russell Peters is VERY talented. That comment was an ignorant comment made by myself when I first started watching stand up. Now I'm older and bolder and smarter and know Dane Cook sucks. Louis Ck is my top favorite guy. So don't presume and don't assume because an ass out of you NOT me. PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
@MrWwefan15 Sorry I assumed, I guess that the comment was like 2 months ago. As for Dave Chapelle, I dunno if you already did this but, you should pull up some clips XD.
@SeeThroughWindows nope. He said it in this special on comedy central and used it as segue to do his "normal stand up" routine where he tells a joke and throws cofetti out, the joke is what do you call a kid with no arms or legs? answer is NAMES then he throws the confetti but before that he says "I can do comedy without all the gimmicks". So yea, he really isn't that respected in the comedy world and this is his "confession" so to speak, pretty interesting huh?
@SeeThroughWindows he's a rich kid from boston, he's the little kid at the party , self centered artist, self upsessed artist(his on stage gimmick is a pretentious goofball) but he's saying he's just kid and maybe he'll grow out of doing the gimmicks or maybe even saying he'll grow up out of thinking he doesn't deserve anything.
Funny thing is Bo is someone famous who should be the least bit guilty.
@SeeThroughWindows and also I pretty much owned you and corrected you and made you look really stupid but I hope you don't take it offensively I just told you facts, peace dude.
@SeeThroughWindows no! I just explained to you "art" is comedy, his comedy, the comedy, I just explained it to you get it through your fucking head, it's his "confession", he's said it himself, on his channel's version he posted and in the comedy central show, it's fucking common sense if you do the research on bo and listen to the fucking lyrics, you fucking fuckety fucktard! art is dead meaning comedy, do you even know who carlin is fuckass?
@SeeThroughWindows if this song isn't about comedy explain the line "so you think you're funny, how'd you get those people's money, we are rolling dough while carlin rolls in grave, in his gah-rave in his grave"
Really surprised, this is easily the best Art is Dead live performance I've seen. It felt even more honest than his DVD. Those cringes he does are...well, make you want to cringe.
@PoptartPwnage he honestly just moves on to his next act. knowing most everyone in the audience has heard his entire new album, he just knows we love anything he does.
@CloudFodder187 Usually he's being satirical about rap's various messages. "I used to think hip hop was a voice for the voiceless, and now it's become, at least in the mainstream, a symbol of misogyny, gay panic, fiscal irresponsibility. So I figure, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em." - Bo Burnham, "Oh Bo."
