We Think We Know You, Bo Burnham

[Narutonerd001]

I bet he plays an awesome air guitar.

[killerx10001]

you post bo burnham but yo have a bill engvall username0_o

[Whatsursign]

@killerx10001 my username is not bill engvall. it's a reference to how i pick up the ladies ;P

[MusicIsMyLife01234]

I clapped. I feel so.. I don't know. I'm just amazed at Bo Burnham's artistic abilities. He's so amazing and this is just so cool.. I'm at a loss for words. I love Bo Burnham and I love you for uploading this work of art. Thank you so much:) <3

[SaiveonReid]

I AM SATAN, LORD OF DARKNESS

[Suaru22]

so freaking fantastic :)

[xParillox]

How is it possible that he was made fun of in high school or w/e. I hear people say. :/

[xParillox]

Hahahaha, "I am satan lord of darkness" What a god Bo is.

[adamhudnall]

your giggle is rly cute.. :/



[Whatsursign]

@adamhudnall aww thanks :)



[TheToasty94]

Funny though it may be, he's talking about problems that have really came into his life. It's really empowering especially at the "We think we know you." Not to mention very clever how it all tied together.

[MidnightSummerRain]

So much wit and humor all piled up into one good looking guy..

Where have you been all my life? sigh..

[6Midgetosser9]

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is my hero.

[halfdecent]

Oh my god, I wish he started rapping at like 4:12 , it would be the most awesome fucking thing this world had ever seen.

[6Midgetosser9]

He's so fucking amazing. This gives me chills every time I watch it.

[RaGeAnDLOvEXD]

fucking genius.



[pooja94ekbote]

Combating the Paper Nation one show at a time.

[narutoman125]

I am Jesus. Fag. Genius.



[CAPSLOCKLIZ]

Bo Burnham is one real human being.

[SoSweet64]

Such an amazing and inventive artist.

I love how he breaks down all of the stupid preconditions and taboos our society has.

Hes REAL and that's so rare nowadays.

[figgersdoesntit]

I would bang his brains out.

[angelb9978554]

he didnt do nothing he did more than wat half of us could do in 4 min. he told us his life

[Deadlywaterboy]

@angelb9978554 If you dont find this impresive then you're simply a moron.

[Stoopkid1990]

@angelb9978554 and who are you again? cuz i don't recal you having your own stand up special on comedy central but then again i could be wrong

[ijobrien3]

@Stoopkid1990 hey stoopid kid. angelbwhateverthefuckitis said he DIDN'T do nothing. context should have explained the rest

[TessaLetterZ]

MORTAL DARKNESS! >:D

[CJENKlNS]

That took so much fucking practice...

[GYMNAST9240]

@boburnham this is so amazing!!!! i love it! i cant stop listening to it!

[thesearemyusernames]

"I AM SATAN LORD OF DARKNESS" <---- Lost it

[SuperBrewcrew8]

I want to see more Bo. He hasn't had a new special in almost two years, and he hasn't posted any new videos in one. I know he was on a UK tour recently, and I know he wants to get into TV and Movies, but I think i speak for all but the eight who disliked this when I say we miss you on TV and youtube.

[allisonfig18]

You think your all cool, walking around? Your all tall, walking around? XD

[sumabee]

Wow, this is genius!

[animechick980]

I'M JEEEE-SUS!

[Dissruptance]

I think he's growing into somebody he actually likes. Fucking great to see, Bo.

[Deadlywaterboy]

@Dissruptance Dont act like you know him.

[Dissruptance]

@Deadlywaterboy

Literally used the word 'think.'

[WoozyPuddle]

holy shit

[Snipa203]

It makes me Wonder...does this go on in his mind everytime he gets a phone call?

[flyseabird]

Hes so fucking tall in person.

[IfLaughsCouldKill]

2:39 <3

[zPark23]

He just made so many people laugh, yet he said nothing for over 4 and a half minutes. P-r-o-p-s.

[marcopolo359]

@zPark23 he made the props, and had to memorize all the timing.. stfu

[sunnydayz101]

@marcopolo359 and how does that change it? all he said was 4min of no speaking and everyone laughed. yes he put work into it, but thats obvious -_- pick your arguments a bit better will you? and just enjoy the fucking video.

[marcopolo359]

@sunnydayz101 talk to me about picking my fights better? where did you even come from?

[sunnydayz101]

@marcopolo359 the internet.

[marcopolo359]

@sunnydayz101 ... my god...

[mikebarryrout]

Such clever comedy

[HIPEOPLE652]

I AM SATAN, LORD OF DARKNESS.

[ChinchillasForever]

@HIPEOPLE652 I'M JEEEEEESUSSSS!!

[ThatWeirdGirlWhoActs]

What, this was in Philly?! Ugh, I wish I knew about him last year... I would have gone to see this...

[saw141]

Damn.

[ArTicCupCaK3ZzZ]

240p... we meet again.

[ShayberLynn]

I feel like he's thinking "you're laughing, but I'm serious."

[me4151]

this is like a beautiful artistic psychotic breakdown. . .

[YouSuckIncorporated]

7 dislikes.. I'm typing this with my middle finger.

[steelerstacy86]

yes bo! fuck them!

[LEGOfunStation]

What Dislike Bar?

[PhoebeMoon5]

His dancing gives me a girl boner.

[Epicsexyness]

@PhoebeMoon5 LADY WOOD

[SierraSexToy]

i love how he can take people's criticism and turn it into art. i look up to Bo Burnham, he's an amazing guy c:

[jufro58]

7 ppl think they know u



[darkman715]

omfg this just makes me wanna see him live even more! xD such awesomeness!

[IReallyAmIronMan]

He is a genius.

[Jewnboy]

Anyone else love that person in the crowds thats like "OOOOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhhh" when it gets to the we think we know you part?

[TheDaileyTrain]

When he says Mr. Burnham it sounds like Jon Lajoie

[cheeztot]

Lol'd so hard a I am satan lord of darkness

[destroyer4253]

Dec. 6th is my birthday :D

[mushergirl]

This is pure genius

[mattcascio23]

thank you for sharing this.  this is spectacular.

[tag1231000]

Only Bo Burnham could be a pure genius without saying one word.

[makeupmagic97]

errmm this is pretty amazing....!

[mindistorter]

I AM SATAN LORD OF DARKNESS !

[iPlayDrums025]

he's no longer a comedian. he's an artist. this is sick. his stuff is sick.

[theGel0]

3:17 ooooooooh

[TheAwakeningOne]

Reminds me a lot of his Art is Dead! A great open song

[iPlayDrums025]

this is sick. this is now one of my favourites.

[madbar4lifexo]

I almost peed at the "I'm Jesuuuuuuuuuuuuuussss!"

[xBSxByakuya]

That is so clever

[FangScheddyMan]

He's so modest it's amazing.

[junkfoodprincess101]

I could listen to this on loop for hours. Such a great song <3

[AwesomeVampireFreak]

Bo! Oh My God!

[gladfelter17]

Usually in his songs he seems so happy an go lucky, but in this video he seems not happy. It's appropriate for the message of the song. Still an amazing song though.

[TMPolimeno]

Saw him in Boston a few nights ago. If he can keep his passion for the art of comedy I think we may be looking at the next George Carlin or, more importantly, the first Bo Burnham.

I think he's got the ability to beomce a benchmark in, not just the field of comedy, but of performing and entertainment for decades to come.

Rock on Bo, rock on.

[ilovefireandhobos]

This was incredible. I saw this tonight and it was just... Wow. I was thinking about it and it's actually really deep and idk the "we think we know you" seems really powerful to me... I dunno. It was simply brilliant and amazing.

[KyonxheartxHaruhi]

@ilovefireandhobos Same here! I was it last night on Boston, the later show. I started tearing up during this, also Art Is Dead and Nerds. I love what he added to this track, the new vocals and such. It's honestly amazing what he can say in just five words and some backing music, there's way more to it then just that. It's more multi-dimensional.

[fireball31794]

the second guy kinda sounds like dane cook

[ledvids]

he says so much without even saying a word. even though everyone creates an image of who they think he should be, he takes their criticisms and rocks out to them. kudos to him for silently saying so much.

[Lyunatis]

One of the coolest things I've ever seen

[AboyNAmEDsued]

Jesus woman your laugh is a chiuaua being crushed by a piano XD

[mattkc27]

brilliant from bo

[thecam3r0nrock]

@mattkc27 ikr thts got to be like his best

[jrdudedj]

Yup

[DRawesomeninjasauce]

If I had to pick one person I would go gay for it would be bo burnham.

[alohababy42]

"youre all tall walking around!" ahhh im in love!! great vid!

[misspiddles158]

This is so fucking awesome. Oh, my. Whoa.

[MrsOmnomnomers]

It's official, I'm in love with Bo Burnham. Even if I don't really know him <3

[llamamuffinpanda95]

the girl voice sounds like this gay guy I know XD

[seratoninfever]

i'm JEEEEEESUSSSSSSS.

[DeathbyChocolateify]

Absolutely Brilliant 

[0slawler57]

ate taco bell with this man, he asked me whats good at taco bell. and i said beefy five layers are the shits

[Whatsursign]

@0slawler57 coincidentally, the night that I shot this video, my boyfriend and I went to taco bell and that is exactly what we got. you have good taste in both comedy and taco bell food. also, I would have cried if I saw Bo Burnham outside of a show. Literally, I cried at this show when I met him afterwards. He was like "it's ok!!!" hahah

[0slawler57]

@Whatsursign He is really tall, did not expect that. I picked him up at the airport and he was taller than me and im 6'5 he was at least 6'6

[docdoom1994]

@0slawler57 is he really 6"5-ish?

[0slawler57]

@docdoom1994 ya its crazy

[DMTCpersonal]

@Whatsursign He said it was okay that you cried upon meeting him? What a chill guy.

[TheAboutLastNight]

I wonder how long it took for him to get those cues down. Looove this:)

[domos187]

i am Satan lord of darkness

[PixieDustTwinkleToes]

loody awesome. this kid is a genious

[DaShahir]

shouldn't it be " we think we know you suck" ?

Idk why it stop at "you" when it was followed "you suck"

[TheNayrKid]

It would be unbelievably epic if bo made this into a whole song with verses and everything.like if yu agree (:

[injunsamurai]

@PianoPlease its all his voice though

[ktrinkss]

i fucking love this. i get goosebumps when it says 'we think we know you'

i fucking love this man. he's so intelligent.

[raenaluvstwilight]

"I AM SATAN LORD OF DARKNESS!!!!!"

[ilikepie9283]

I'm jeeeeeeeeeeessssuuuss

[IhateMakingThese69]

probly the only comedian that can not say a single word during the whole skit and still make people laugh their ass off. genius

[jjuliescmuliee]

i'm never gonna stop loving bo. i just can't.

[just4digginthis]

I AM SATAN LORD OF DARKNESS!! XDD

[TheJustineBell]

His dancing is so hot! Lolz

[TheJustineBell]

his messed up hair is so hot! lolz

[willgaunt17]

this chick laughing sounds so annoying AAAHAAA!!! like a little girl

[Whatsursign]

@willgaunt17 that's me, I was excited. I'm quite the fan girl. sorry. :)

[dustin10101]

@willgaunt17 Never.... EVER say sorry for laughing at a comedy show...... Even if it is on the video!

[Whatsursign]

@dustin10101 I was just apologizing for being annoying really.

[RosieHidesHere]

@Whatsursign Its not that bad. I actually think this is the best quality video of this song and it didnt bother me at all to the point where I put it on my Ipod.

[Omnilegence]

@Whatsursign I actually don't mind the cheering. I think live performances are really hard to enjoy or find amusing at home if the audience is in a coma.

[stephenwharton1]

@Whatsursign Your laugh is so cute hehe

[BBM2424]

@stephenwharton1 total fucking agree

[BBM2424]

@BBM2424 totaly

[stephenwharton1]

@BBM2424 Haha i know its like awww so cute :)

[willgaunt17]

@dustin10101 no im just sayin it was a little loud not insulting them or nothin

[TheJustineBell]

O.O 3:32 Looks SOOOO WRONG!!!!! LOLZ ....Far from it ;D

[myrtlepalmwasher]

@willgaunt17 Really? That's all you have to say. Nothing about the creativity of the piece. And, really, a person's laugh bothers you? What an empty hole your life must be.

[imamillion1]

He didn't say a word and his song was still epic! Genuis!

[SAMZonday]

Genius.

[sma04]

Is this supposed to be his "answering machine?"

[kaged1productions]

@sma04 no its a glimps inside his head and what he has to deal with now. The girl represents all the people who ignored and treated him like shit until he was famous and now only want anthing to do with him because he is. the 2nd guy is all the "hollywood" agents and stuff who are trying to tell him how to run his act and his life and the other guys are all the people who hate him for know reason. the song is saying that they dont know him so they should stop pretending they do and leave him be

[asimantel2011]

@kaged1productions Couldn't have said it better myself.

[tazdevil95476]

xD this fucking makes me think i know you even more!

[Joyhova]

Listening to the song at first was interesting, then he started mixing the nice beats, and finally mixed them in into We Think We Know You, which BLEW MY MIND. I love you Bo.

[cade110794]

pretty good recording video thanks for uploading.

[BardocksSynphony]

WoW Cataclysm came out today!

[xHelloHelicopter]

Okay, okay... is he saying "fag" or "fake"? I can't hear it...

[MonocleWizard]

@xHelloHelicopter He's saying fag.

[DannyBoy443]

@xHelloHelicopter Fag dude, fag.

[Cha0s7777]

Kept waiting to hear the "Mr. Anderson.."

[madmarchie94]

Oh Bo, why are you so... perfect?

[juices1234]

What a fucking genius.

[booKinsey]

Bo Burnham is probably one of the most creative AND intelligent people I've come across recently. Everything thinks about his funny stuff, but it's ingenious pieces like and Nerds and Art is Dead this that stand out to me because even though he throws in his little touch of Bo (Satan and Jeeeeesus) it's serious. It makes his vulnerable and relatable. I just... I really appreciate what he does. I don't know him and don't claim to. But I'd really love to.

[booKinsey]

@booKinsey everyone* thinks about his funny stuff

it makes him* vulnerable and relatable

[muusicfahreeksmiles]

@booKinsey He really is. I wish I knew him. If there was anybody in the world I'd like to meet, it's him. He is the smartest person I've never met. Anyone who actually knows him is blessed, and it's so sad that, even though he is as famous as he is, he will never get the credit he deserves.

[laceycaron]

I don't think this is funny at all. It's a light into his mind, which seems pained. There is so much artistry here, I can't help but to appreciate the beauty of it.

[ILoveGamingify]

I like his head movements at 4:23 haha

[cupninjacakes]

He's so perfect with the hand motions. I always fuck up when I do them. :p

[LetSamRide97]

haha i luv this!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Wolfking583]

JEEEEEEZZZUUUUS: )

[FlatSpade]

At the end, I get chills

[PurpleMust]

@Josaiahgabrielmusic yeah it is. You have to understand that when the tracks start skipping, and say we think we know you, hes trying to say that he's knows whats best for him and all the people trying to tell him what to do think they know him

[mattatthome]

@PurpleMust it mean also means that people hate on em because they are jelious and they jump to conclusions over vids they saw of him

[TissueBoxGaming]

it sucks to know as a young radio entertainer that i will never be anywhere near as good as this man.

[blackandwhiteheart1]

He needs to make a music video to this!

[mysimpleplan123]

Beautiful.

[cupninjacakes]

that was amazing. <3

[MeyTheSkunk]

You're excused, I can't refrain myself from looking at his...crotch..either.

[stevenreid1990]

This shit actually gave me shivers.

I feel bad for him, but love and respect him.

[ninjapagli]

So. Creative.

[whereisyourboy98]

this video kinda left me staring at my computer at the end. its completely brilliant.

[riley1496]

My heart sank when they said "we think we know you" :(
