The first one actually got the attention of the woman in the car next to me on Ventura Blvd. I noticed her looking at my car and gesturing, so I paused, rolled the window down the rest of the way, and she told me how funny what I was listening to was, allowing me the opportunity to pimp Bo Burnham to a complete stranger. It's also strangely timely thanks to the Charlie Sheen situation (to which Bo just Tweeted this). I saw it online a month or so ago and felt it confirmed that Bo's not just a guy who can write funny, random, shocking material, but is truly insightful. Enjoy:

More after the break...
[[MORE]]The next one plays a bit on Bo's roots, so head back to my first post on him for a refresher of his style. Sound quality is, IMO, not as good as I'd like, and the album version's much better (especially the live one, which helps you pick out some of the smarter lyrics better), but it's a fun video nonetheless.

And finally, what I think is some of his finest work yet. There's not much more I can say to do this video justice. The song is great, and the quality of the production is fantastic, and the video really adds to the song's humor instead of distracting like some do.

Anyway, just felt like sharing some great new works of a long-running favorite of mine. If you enjoy his work, check out his website, Amazon page
