my name is Bo the show a born Bostonian
Aryan librarian of the word Smithsonian
music and laughter are both good for the
Soul and this artist slash comedian
delivers both consider yourself warned
of offensive and creative like handicap
porn welcome to watchmojo.com and today
we’ll be counting down our picks for the
top ten bo burnham songs
[Music]
for this list we’ll be looking at some
of the best songs from the strange and
hilarious mind of Bo Burnham pales in
number ten sad it’s about other sad
stuff just picture depressed onion
cutting itself if you’re looking to
introduce a friend to bo burnham this is
a perfect example of how he likes to
blend quick-witted comedy music and
plenty of shock factor dedicated to
showing everyone how much better it
feels to laugh at the terrible things in
the world the song has Bo finding humor
and tragedies big and small he also
describes allegedly personal experiences
including watching a man getting hit by
a train and so forth I saw a man with
in a 3d movie perhaps most notable is an
anecdote about a child dropping their
ice cream onto their mother’s corpse the
shock of these situations gets many
gasps from the audience but always
followed by a healthy dose of laughter
it’s the way to solve all the sadness in
the world I mean not for the people that
are actually sad but the people I gotta
kind of deal with them all the time
if you can’t beat them
number nine oboe in the club Birnam
often uses his music to address issues
in the world albeit always from an
over-the-top comedic angle in this track
from his 2010 album words words words
bow points out that despite having its
roots in social commentary hip hop has
descended into misogyny and the
flaunting of wealth you think that you
can handle me puck is bipolar it’ll
split you instead of writing a diss
track to combat the issue he flexes
parody skills and instead illustrates
these issues by writing his very own
offensive verses
[Music]
our game though I swear
he raps about different ways that he has
sex with women tying it together with a
catchy little hook of oboe clarifying
that if he were gay the men would say
number eight are you happy now the show
I hope that you had gut trembling or
something resembling fun this is a big
change from the vulgar jokes and absurd
scenarios typically found in both songs
but if you hated it featured at the end
of the Netflix special make happy
this song sees both switch things up by
allowing everyone to see the other side
of his personality and a
self-consciousness that comes with being
a performer so if you know or ever knew
how to be happy in it he reveals that he
is constantly questioning if his work is
done enough for people and brought them
the joy and laughter that they were
looking for despite its dark and somber
tone the song still has a few laughs but
really its strength lies in BO opening
up and doing some truly self reflexive
number seven new math once pirate – ship
bo burnham is an inventive comedian is
constantly finding new and original ways
to make people laugh take this song for
example in which he manages to find
humor and one of the dry school subjects
around math in it Burnham crafts
equations using random shocking and
often hilarious incidents this includes
references to Lance Armstrong’s missing
testicle and Michael J Fox is diagnosis
of Parkinson’s disease it’s almost as if
Bo was trying to cram as many taboo
subjects into one song as possible
this song as many edgy and questionable
scenarios but when you add it all
together the result is undeniably funny
and swearing numbers are just like women
if they’re under 13
[Music]
and new math and that question is number
six can’t handle this cannot see mush a
bizarre ending to his live performance
Burnham puts his own spin on Kanye
West’s infamous Jesus to her Show rants
whereas West would discuss things like
technology in the state of the media Bo
talked about the size of Pringle cans
and his issues with burritos and how all
of the fillings fall out if you feel me
put yo hands the airy music and
auto-tune vocals only added to the
hilarity of the segment bo had taken a
controversial performance and mocked it
perfectly let’s be honest Frank ants are
annoying just make them wider number
five words words words and quite
possibly one of the craziest music
videos of all time Burnham bombards his
audience with constant puns and phrases
for four straight minutes none of this
makes any sense
that is what makes the song so
the title of the song is referencing the
Shakespeare play Hamlet and is used by
Bo and the song to compare his own
ability with words to that of William
Shakespeare and well with inventive
lines like cold and fly like an Arctic
puffin maybe he has a point
number four from God’s perspective
oops you think I wrote her way too thick
after countless songs exploring the ins
and outs of life from his own
perspective beau switches up the mood
and this track by singing a song from
the viewpoint of God referencing many
poor aspects of life as well as cracking
jokes about religion in general
[Music]
there’s a trillion aliens cooler through
the words of God he tells everyone that
they make his life of living hell and
that it doesn’t matter how well someone
lives their life they won’t be going to
heaven because there are plenty of
aliens that are way cooler well you
can’t argue with that logic but
seriously this is beau at his most wild
and inventive can make my job a living
I send gays to fix overpopulation
pointed PATCO well on your rap number
three
I’m boyo now I don’t know if our boy
scouts are gays they could probably tie
the knot in like 50 different ways when
starting out with this music on YouTube
Bo wrote many songs that joked about his
rapping skills and his sexual prowess
and that’s pretty much all the song is
well that and some shameless
self-promotion Sambo yo I’m the greatest
rapper ever handled whether you whether
or not
however childish esteems might be
Burnham’s knack for wordplay and catchy
melodies is more than enough to keep you
glued to your screen a Spitfire like I
just blew a dame in my lines including I
spit fire like I just blew a demon
aren’t soon forgotten and while Bo moved
on to arguably more interesting and
dynamic premises for his later material
there’s no denying the fact that his
straightforward early vulgar material
still makes us laugh oh my god by my EP
on iTunes right now the song isn’t funny
at all but it’s been sleeping number two
art is dead artist
artists day again Birnam shocks and
impresses with a serious song before
performing he tells the audience this
song isn’t funny at all but it helps me
sleep at night and then he proceeds true
to his word to deliver a dramatic and
refreshing piece of music beau openly
discusses the problems with creating art
in the public eye and the mental state
of performers acknowledging that there’s
a desperate need for attention at the
root of it all so people think you’re
funny how do we get those people’s mind
while it’s light on laughs the song is
downright jaw-dropping in its honesty
and candor a self reflexive and
insightful piece of music which proves
and maybe y’all grow out of it before we
unveil our top pick here are a few
honorable mentions have you ever wrote a
song note for note and not a single note
was out of place duh you wanna lower
your expectations of you because prince
let us go then you and I when the
evening is spread out against the sky
like a patient etherized upon a table
number one repeat stuff nowadays thanks
to corporately owned pop stars love
songs are even more beautiful in this
modern classic of musical comedy Burnham
dice X the problems with modern pop
music and crepper Lee marks the music
industry with a catchy chorus folk
auntie’s that the whole audience will be
able to sing the song after hearing it
once he’s taken it to a silly extreme
but it rings true he also discusses how
vague and unimaginative the lyrics are
so that they can be applied to every fan
to make them feel special so I described
my dream girl is really really big like
your hands cuz your finger prints are
like no other the skating parody is so
effective it seemingly hurt Justin
Bieber’s feelings when the young pop
star saw Beau perform it live
