So many parts just keep popping up in my head, I feel like almost every song has been stuck in my head at some point this week.
This is legit in my top like three albums of the year so far, holy shit. I can't stop listening I agree that All Eyes On Me is incredible, that weird vocal effect is PERFECT and the melodies are so good. I'm gonna stop myself here because I keep writing multiple paragraphs about this all over this site lol
I think the two songs I wish were longer or fuller are Content and Look Who's Inside Again. When he's singing about being a kid who is stuck in his room in the latter, and then the end part bringing it all back to experiencing the pandemic... that shit fucking hits me. One of the things I loved to do when I was a kid who felt like he was stuck in his room was watch Bo Burnham. And I don't need to explain Content, it just slaps

It's a random bit in a special full of catchy songs, but I've been singing "Big ol' motherfucking duffel bag of shit" to myself since I watched this. Idk why that made me laugh so hard when I first heard it lol.
Been doing that little scat at the end of Unpaid Intern all day at work and my coworkers are very impressed
Just checked this out. Really thought it was great, despite not being super familiar with the rest of his work.
I feel like Breakfast All Day has a good measured take on it that acknowledges problems they have with it, while also enjoying it.
So many of these songs are catchy. And don't sleep on the skits from the special! The song reaction video...the twitch streamer....
This thing is really taking off with the "youth" lol, I watched it with my 19 year old sister today and she had already heard parts of half of the songs from Tiktok. Welcome to the Internet and All Eyes On Me are also in the top 10 on Genius right now
This might genuinely be both my "movie" and "album" of the year. I'm still constantly blown away by every aspect of this and I've watched it countless times over the last few weeks
It's definitely mine and only getting more in love with it the more I listen/watch. Showing it to a bunch of friends on Monday, ha.
I have not been able to stop thinking about this since I watched it. I don't think I've seen anything successfully bottle up what living through this last year was really like until this.
