First time I heard this, I froze. This reminded me of my life with my ex husband. Always wondered if life could be better, if I could be treated better. One day, I said enough and left. Now, I get to enjoy beautiful summers with my children and my “new” husband. I’ve never been happier and I’m so glad I dared cross the road 🥰
This gives me hope, my parents divorced 3 years ago when I was 15, I spent all this time being sad about it but if I think of it in the context of that this is the better life on the other side that makes me happier. Thank you for sharing that.
So as of late. I've been in a dark place, i just recently turned 39. I haven't been able to take a day off for four months now, and i started working at the age of 12... and my wife, son, and sister went on a weeks vacation, and came home with a cold, which they gave to me. After a while it gets disheartening to "do the right thing", and yet have bad s*expletive* happen to you. I understand bo's anxiety. As i took today off because of an anxiety attack. Thats not a "day off" in my opinion. It was miserable. Its fine now. But i can't exactly go do what i planned to do today now. Its midnight. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. 🤷♂️
The way I see this song is, the road might kill you, but you won't reach the meadow unless you try to cross it. Making the first step into something scary and difficult, like recovery, can seem so impossible but unless you try, you'll never get to a better place.
This is one of my favorite Bo songs and what a great reaction. You “get” the deeper meaning of every one of his songs and I appreciate you opening my eyes with all of your reactions.
I feel so dumb sometimes, cause I never in my life thought I’d be crying over a song about a chicken, yet, here we are. I must have listened to this song 30+ times, and I cry almost every time.
Because it’s not just a chicken, your heart and unconscious recognizes it for you I know you’re somewhat kidding, but it’s important to not name call to yourself or anyone…your brain and unconscious mind is listening…the small chip you create on your soul can begin to grow
I really like your shirt! Where did you get it? I would always say something very similar when asked if I'm ok so that shirt would be perfect for me. Bo Burnham has a way of making everyone who's going through a difficult time feel seen, heard, and not alone. Sometimes it's like he's saying the words that I'm unable to say myself. This song always brings me to tears every time I hear it. Bo is such a treasure. ❤
'when I do this and that i will be free' I've said that to myself for over ten years about moving back to my mom's home village. It's been on my mind every day for over a decade. I just haven't had the courage to cross the road yet
Why did the chicken cross the road? Bo answers this so eloquently! This is such a beautiful song, even without the lyrics. Add in the lyrics and it is just spectacular. I would like to look at the hopeful ending as what happened rather than the chicken getting squashed along with her dreams. 7:39 makes me get really emotional with what he does with the melody. Thank you for your reaction to this one!
This is now my favourite song from Inside, make me so emocional and is so beautiful. Bo can punch our feelings with everything, even with the most simple joke in the world.
Your approach to the point!Great analysis. I really have the feeling that "chicken "is a great analogy .It could be in his place every human being trying to escape from issues and instances. (Maybe I'm wrong). Anyway °Always good to see you Wish you a great Sunday and I look forward to see your reaction to new Tom macdonald SCARS. Greetings from Greece, much♡
You prolly wont see this, but just wanted to comment. Took me to the 2nd video here ive seen of yours to notice but i saw that little brown spot in one of your eyes. My mom had that too, blue eyes with a brown spot. Im the only green eyes in my family but i think its very pretty and wanted to mention that. :) Keep on with the content, i enjoy your thoughts on art.
Great video! As someone who watches a lot of reaction I‘d like to give you the advice to go backwards maybe 5 seconds after you pause, because people often tend to miss things before and right after the pause. And you notice that as a viewer. Wish you all the best!

so Bo literally just hit us with a Why did the chicken cross the road joke.
In which the answer is: to get to the other side, but Bo poses the question is the otherside, death, or a better life.
@@agentlemancaller86 Oh that's nice David, going to contemplate on that thank you!
Also. If she became a dentist, it would be a hen's teeth
"To become a dentist in Memphis" is the only correct answer that I will accept from now on! 😄
"Save one person mentally and you're a great person, save a hundred and you're a therapist."

Beautiful!! I absolutely agree!
how can bo make me cry over a CHICKEN
I love that you nailed the theme of the song within hearing just five seconds of piano noises. Incredible.
This is one of my favorite Bo songs and what a great reaction. You “get” the deeper meaning of every one of his songs and I appreciate you opening my eyes with all of your reactions.
Thank you for saying that! It means alot to me, really!
@@TherapeuticReactions you deserve it, you're a great guy!

Thank you for the reminder that we are strong. I had a really difficult therapy session today and needed to hear that!
💓🙏💓
I believe in you!
My pleasure Julia, we're stronger then we can possibly realize. I hope you're doing good ❤️🤗
@@Fubbernutt More people like you please ❤️
@@DetroitNickel More people like you please! ❤️
this was actually the only song that i was sobbing uncontrollably to in the middle of the night so very fun
I have some difficult decisions coming up soon and when I heard this song, it made me tear up.
I assure you you're not the only one Nova ❤️

Thank you Elizabeth ! Unfortunately I don't remember, have it for a long time :) I agree completely - Bo is an absolute treasure.

Liked commented and subscribed for Bo, as always!
That's awesome Nickel! Welcome aboard!
A joke that always gets me is she dreams of becoming a dentist. Chicken don't have teeth.
An impossible or absurd dream.
We are NOT okay, but we ARE strong. It's both why we're here, and why we're still here. 💜
Love it. Well said ❤️
Reminded me of my first and only relationship.

Some people took years ! 🤣 Thank you very much for that thoughtful comment 🤗
We don't deserve Bo's art, holy shit.
Word. He forces me to make myself evolve to new heights!

I just noticed your eye. That's really cool!
You should do the whole special to get the full effect. No copyright.
Bo is Awesome,you are awesome ,Thank you 🙏
You are awesome Donna, thank you!
No, *your* time is the most important thing
You're right , our time is the most important thing :)
I love bo
❤️
Bo Burnham just UNDID the joke part of the chiken cross the road "joke", it is song about hope, dreams and... death in pursuit of dream
Bo is beautiful and so are you
