Bo Burnham - Tumblr Posts
|L4D2|EDIT| - 1985/My dad 1985
For many people, L4D2 is a childhood game. I think that many people treated the characters of this game in a family way and loved them sincerely. I've had that with the characters. Unfortunately, our favorite game has not been updated for many years, but fans still think warmly about them :"(
In my head Bo Burnham and Will Wood are the same person just in different universes
Hear me out-
Byler as the song five years by Bo Burnham,
it'll stop any day now...
bo burnham’s inside is really, really good.
ANOTHER TWO BRAINS AI COVER
Welcome To The Internet - Bo Burnham
People will be absolutely flooding over with classism and people will just allow it because they like them.
“I’m just Ken” and “Straight White Man” are the inverses of the same song in different fonts.
My first animation I know it’s really short only 22 seconds actually. But I hope you guys like it anyway（´∀`）.
Outtakes
This bubble of joy I find myself in
Helps my world to not spin
Time is of the essence here,
Where the Gods are Queer
And walk amongst men
But I will say: Every now and then
I find myself wishing for the danger
but quickly I retreat away from the stranger
who may defeat me.
Not today, I won’t let me.
Although today is the day to truly be
Dancing, Dazzling with the Queen
The Queen? The Queen! for she
was right here, outside the bubble to the left
Wait… There I had just placed my weft
There… To the left.
In this world they spoke of enchanters
and master crafters
who’ll all keep you safe til the day you die
How that is guaranteed I know not why…
Yet no one told me of the opportunities outside the bubble
Outside the bubble! Beneath the rubble
Please take me in, I just want to live
I don’t care if you only have misfortunes to give
I didn’t want this at first, but now I’m torn.
My Fault. So I can’t mourn?
Feel Like Shit || Bo Burnham, Inside (2021)
This guy has been living rent free in my head for a while now but idc I hope he’s having a nice day
Yuh it’s the guy
Remember fellow artists.
1. Never settle for something you don’t like
2. Lighting changes EVERYTHING
[THIS grown man exists] he's my little white man :((
Um
What the fuck is going on
Prismo kins Bo Burnham and no one can convince me otherwise.
something, something, being isolated in a single room with the only connection to the outside world being through a screen.
I'm always thinking about Jason because fixation so my judgement is biaised because every song I listen to makes me think about at least one of my Jasons, but here are some songs though were definitely written for and about canon Jason Todd, and I will take no criticism (but you are definitely welcome to add your own songs):
-Take me To War, by The Crane Wives
>"But I keep snapping at Goliath hands with all of my tiny might"/ "All of the fire I swallowed, all of the sparks that went down in my guts, I am always burning out"/ "I'll be the sweetest thing to ever scare you"
The Robin -> Red Hood transition is so seamless
-Little Soldiers by the Crane Wives
> "On the broken back of all the words we spared, Like little soldiers in the trenches; It was a march we made towards ruin and despair, But we held hands all the while"
I always rant about how how Jason's character and story is centered around love, this is the song that plays in my head while I'm yapping
-Blue Lips by Regina Spektor
> "He took a step but then felt tired, He said I'll rest a little while; but when he tried to walk again, he wasn't a child"
If you ever wanna be sad about Jason's resurrection, catatonia and stolen childhood, this is the song to listen to
-The Horrors and The Wild by The Amazing Devil
"Think of all the horrors that I promised I'd bring, I promise they'll sing of every Time you passed your fingers through my hair and called me child, Witness me old man I am the Wild"
> If Under The Red Hood has one song it's this one
-The Old Witch Sleep and The Good Man Grace by The Amazing Devil
"There's a fire burning/And I'm learning to be/So much more than my tiredness/ So much more than that old witch sleep wishes/ She kisses my eyelids, and I/Breathe"
> If Red Hood: Lost Days (minus the gross bits) has one song it's this one
-Elsa's song by The Amazing Devil
>"And you'll throw some sage and lillies/ And roses where I'll rot/ Of all the flowers you picked/I knew you would forget/ Forget-me-nots"
idk who Elsa is this is about how Jason was grieved but he wasn't remembered
(Yeah I'm pretty convinced that at least either Madeline Hyland or Joey Batey read Under the Red Hood so many of their songs fit so well I restrained myself to three but there are so many)
-A Burning Hill by Mitski
>"I'm tired of wanting more, I think I'm finally worn/ For you have a way of promising things/ And I've been a forest fire"
Jason admitting loss and giving up on begging Bruce is something that can be so personal actually
-Heaven Knows by The Pretty Reckless
>"Now you're on your knees with your head hung low/ Big Man tell you where to go/ Tell them it's good, tell them okay/Don't do a goddamn thing they say"
Crime Alley united!!! Also, "tell the big guy I said hello" :))) (the God/Batman amalgam in Death in the Family is such an incredible one-liner and works so well for Jason omg)
-For the Departed by Shayfer James
>"Now I must finished what I started/I'll write a symphony for the departed/And I have no time for second chances/ So I survive on bourbon blood and backward glances"
The amount of angst, dramatics and intense devotion to his cause at the cost of his life, the literature references, everything about this song? Jason at his angstiest for sure
-Goodbye by Bo Burnham
> "If I wake up in a house that's full of smoke I'll panic/So call me up and tell me a joke/ When I'm fully irrelevant and totally broken dammit/ Call me up and tell me a joke /Oh shit/ You're really joking at a time like this"
exploded warehouse parallel aside, this song feels like not being able to heal because you're not capable of asking for what you really need, wanting to come back but feeling like you aren't allowed to because it would ruin you or the you that was shaped by other's perception of you and most importantly, begging to matter and to have mattered. So. Jason.
