I think that's a key difference. American audiences would assume "oh no, the crowd didn't get it, such a shame!". I saw Bo expecting and milking that for comedic value. Brilliant!
This is the Edinburgh Comedy festival, it's a notoriously difficult crowd, if they don't like you you'll know it. There's been bigger comedians than him get booed off stage and never want to go back. As pretentious as it is to say the people in the crowd will have forgotten more about comedy acts than we will ever know, they're hanging on his words and don't miss a joke, it's pretty respectful to him!
He played it well, he knew no one would do the call/response so he worked it into awkwardness, hence him subtlety saying "Oh booooo...." and played off it. Clever.
It's actuslly part of the bit! He intentionally doesn't prep them it reinforces the entire songs delusional narrative that there are these women craving him
YOU ALL THOUGHT THE CROWD WAS MENT TO SING ALONG YEAH YEAH BUT THEY WERE MENT TO BE QUIET BUT THE CROWD WASNT MENT TO SING YEAH YEAH ART IS A LIE NOTHING IS REAL
at least he uploaded this video here or else the footage would have been lost forever and a lot of people enjoy this video so it doesn't really matter if he's making money he's making people happy by uploading this up again.
Yes the crowd was shit but I kinda feel like Bo told them not sing so when he did that it would be more funny because it was awkward because he did it alone. I liked it that way I laughed so hard. Bo does sometimes tell them not to sing for the videos.
@@soupydoe yea, because it's annoying when you're performing and others clap or sing along because they might mess with your tempo. But in this song he gives them a cue to a sing, he is obviously allowing them to sing
I think he just sang it too fast, it's sometimes hard to understand if you don't already know the words. And he missed out the jackson pollack's easel line, which is a great line.
The crowed didn't suck just I think Americans tend to be more involved and vocal while Scottish/English people are more laid back and just enjoying the show
I have the house to myself right now, so I am playing this on repeat... Singing every word... Sincerly, a 15 year old girl who is in love with this guy.
I've definitely not been making money off it. Turns out youtube automatically sets advertisements to on in settings now so high viewed videos on peoples accounts have ads and all the profit goes to youtube. I haven't been on this account in a while so I don't know how long its had adverts on it for. I've now turned ads off. Thanks for pointing it out.
@gunn1314 He said he likes the audiences in the UK and Europe. He said "The UK and Europe in general seem to be a lot more patient. The US are expecting 'joke joke joke joke joke joke joke'. They don't actually sit and listen to you. Over here they're more patient for you to try new and weirder things"
I don’t know why, maybe he thougth about that in the last minute or something. But there’s a version live with the part: ruclips.net/video/ZvfHgdPb41o/видео.html
I think people quite often have reservations about an act they haven't seen before come on with an instrument. That and yeah most people wouldn't have been there to see him, especially.
the funniest thing is that in the original live (which cannot be found now) before this song, Bo made comic calculations, in which he said "according to statistics, on 9/11, most houses of cards are destroyed," after which the audience stopped laughing in principle
I feel bad for bo, i live in the uk and i just had that instinct that people wouldnt laugh much at him because people have fucking standards over here i felt sooooo bad when the crowd was silent whrn he expected them to say oh bo.
At :02 Bo was kinda hoping for an applause or some sort of recognition after thanking the crowd but all he got was the silent treatment. You can see his eyes darting in every direction as a signal of, "Get me out of here...".
@psychosissafari he only hates it when he doesnt call on people to do it, when i went to see him he got pissed when people sang but when he sang oh bo he called on the audience to sing "oh bo" at those same two parts
The crowd not playing along makes it funnier
I think that's a key difference. American audiences would assume "oh no, the crowd didn't get it, such a shame!". I saw Bo expecting and milking that for comedic value. Brilliant!
@@stepheneamonn Agreed, in no other performance does he so become so animated for the crowd participation part! He built that into his act.
@@stepheneamonn nah dude I think ur over thinking it.
@@svendinsvinderlin4569 no, no. He's got a point
@@0ccasional_j035 🤔
His reaction when no one said "Oh Bo" Haha haha xD Priceless.
"Really?" The muld dissatisfaction is fucking hilarious
they weren’t mean to say it
@@lexajohnson7151 yes they were. Every crowd does it, this one just didnt
@@benjaminlundback8394 I think it made for great comedic factor though XD
@@benjaminlundback8394 he hates when people cuts into his shows he told them not to say anything before he started the song

if I was there you'd hear me in the silence like "OOOH BOOO"
Same though
Same
"If you sing along I'll fucking kill you"
after he performs he always sings Oh Bo and he encourages people to sing along!
Me
Aww, poor Bo. I bet that silent crowd embarrassed him a little...
Trusty Rusty ಠ_ಠ Ikr

If you see other performances it always happens, its literally by design and clever
I think he'd just know the culture difference is a little less enthusiastic over here than it is in America haha
this wasn’t a bad crowd , they laughed at all the right moments and the awkward silence … comedy , makes it funnier. it’s the uk lols
The way he slams the keyboard at the end kills me
He is so good at recovering from a bad audience
YOU ALL THOUGHT THE CROWD WAS MENT TO SING ALONG
YEAH YEAH
BUT THEY WERE MENT TO BE QUIET BUT THE CROWD WASNT MENT TO SING
YEAH YEAH
ART IS A LIE NOTHING IS REAL
*YES*
Liza Docherty art is dead
Yeah that's the joke
@Liza Docherty the thing about comedians is that theyre meant to make the crowd laugh so if they dont theyd feel bad i guess
I wish I was old enough to to have gone to this 9 years ago. Discovered him right after he'd finished all his tours in the UK. :(
1:50 ,, my god i could *feel* his heart drop. :(
ME TOO WTH
Fr
I think it was a part of joke where people like that actualy don't live that kind of life and just boast
People who don't get that that's the point 🤦
seen him perform oh bo so many times and loved it ever time. but the wink makes this one my favourite 😍
He seems so anxious. Poor Bo. Breaks my heart.
I'm gonna be honest the chorus of this song is my favorite chorus ever
I find it very impressive that he can rap and sing just as good as he does on his music video's. One very talented man!
he usually hates when the crowd sings along, their eyes should've lit up when he gave them the chance to scream "OHHHH BO!!!"
WHY WAS THE CROWD SILENT?! THATS BO BURNHAM! ID BE VIBING
well played bo
that was a tough crowed
I bet they weren't really ready for your uniqueness
love how he still put on a good performance even though the audience wasn’t very into it
He winks at 0:39. Oh my...
SergeantCuddles
Yaaaaas omggggg 😍😍😍
OHHHH BOOO
@@mollyp2529 BAHHAAHAHH
The wink ;O;
That fucking wink!!!
you could tell even he felt uncomfortable saying some of the lines in front of that crowd
3:07 Even though he is just hitting the keyboard you can actually here most of the right notes coming through :)
He's Bo yo
i love how he's actually a pretty good singer
0:39 Don't you dare fucking wink at me! 😩😂😂😂
fucking bot
Jimin'sinfiredSugaglazedKookie With a side of hope nice fucking name right
at least he uploaded this video here or else the footage would have been lost forever and a lot of people enjoy this video so it doesn't really matter if he's making money he's making people happy by uploading this up again.
Yes the crowd was shit but I kinda feel like Bo told them not sing so when he did that it would be more funny because it was awkward because he did it alone. I liked it that way I laughed so hard. Bo does sometimes tell them not to sing for the videos.
he frequently yelled at people when they sung along so that is a possibility
@@soupydoe yea, because it's annoying when you're performing and others clap or sing along because they might mess with your tempo. But in this song he gives them a cue to a sing, he is obviously allowing them to sing
Damn I would've screamed oh bo
The fact that the crowd didn't say anything at 1:50 it actually made it a bit funnier
I hope I have a legacy like his left behind after me because that shits amazing
i think the crowd not singing made this performance ten times funnier. lmfao
I think he just sang it too fast, it's sometimes hard to understand if you don't already know the words. And he missed out the jackson pollack's easel line, which is a great line.
The first one for the ladies, I could understand, but mannnn the second time actually hurt me
The crowed didn't suck just I think Americans tend to be more involved and vocal while Scottish/English people are more laid back and just enjoying the show
i love how he tried a second time:')
The disappointment in his face when nobody responded...
1:49 lol priceless!
I have the house to myself right now, so I am playing this on repeat... Singing every word...
Sincerly, a 15 year old girl who is in love with this guy.
Weird to think you're 25 now. Im at the EARLY part of youtube
@@ghostfezlet I was thinking the same thing ... I wonder how she's doing
@@hannahrm1501 yeah, i wonder what she thought of inside!
So... you're 26 now? It's okay, because now I'M the 15 year old girl singing every word. literally.
28?
the fact no one shouts "oh bo!" makes it funnier, i think. :')
I think it's funnier that they don't respond because that's exactly what he wanted them to do.
I've definitely not been making money off it. Turns out youtube automatically sets advertisements to on in settings now so high viewed videos on peoples accounts have ads and all the profit goes to youtube.

he can sing. play the piano. and be funny. what more can you ask for?
he can even play the piano! and is depressed!
i meant the guitar but i was thinking of the piano so my fingers went on autopilot
The audience not laughing adds so much
Edinburgh gets so much comedy with the frindge it's the toughest crowd you could find
I haven't seen any live show where he includes the "you're an ice cream sundae..." Part of this song. Does anyone know why?
+Xianaic also the oboe joke
+Dank Meme Lord that's because he can't actually play the oboe and otherwise it'd be strange without the oboe playing
I don’t know why, maybe he thougth about that in the last minute or something. But there’s a version live with the part:
ruclips.net/video/ZvfHgdPb41o/видео.html
2:45 Bo shakes his head as if to say "I gave all of you fuckers TWO chances to sing... Not this time!"
2:45 "i gave you two chances to sing so screw you" lol
I think people quite often have reservations about an act they haven't seen before come on with an instrument. That and yeah most people wouldn't have been there to see him, especially.
Bo, you are a true genius and your songs kick so much ass! even the mic on the right is rocking out haha
he's always so gentle with his piano :P I Love You!!
You see how young and nervous he was feels bad but he did well love this guy
watch the whole video just for the "chorus is coming up" xD
I'm quite obsessed with him right now
no wonder he barely comes to the UK lol. what a tough crowd, damn i’m embarrassed for us brits, why didn’t they respond?
he told them not to
@@user-uf7ve4sr4r really? how do you know?
hahahahahahaha
2:58 subtle eyebrow raise on "Levels" XD
best thing ever.
Oh Bo! Verfluchte Unerreichbarkeit der Helden - Remotes devotes pesonarum primarum!
I wish bo would make me say oh bo ;)
Boop Doop u already said it
Chelikani Akhil no he typed it
T2GR84NY1 same difference
Boop Doop wtf
shut up
He seemed like he was gonna pass out . And like he was sad :(
Bo rockin that Tom Delonge hair
i was so uncomfortable when nobody said oh bo
It looks like the crowd was about to heckle him!
That crowd sucked
ikr
Not really. It was delivered quite poorly, far too rushed.
@@davejordan9776 you clearly don't understand Bo's humour
Not really that is american humor and the audience is Scottish which is even very different than english
@@slowedndreverb so do I but yet again our humour is different?
he looks realllly tired, but he did an amazing job//love the end part ahahah
@Bana871 Yeah, I met him during the festival and he said one audience he had was really good, and the other was just really awkward
"I LOOK LIKE WOOLY WILLY WITH A REALLY WOOLY WILLY".
the funniest thing is that in the original live (which cannot be found now) before this song, Bo made comic calculations, in which he said "according to statistics, on 9/11, most houses of cards are destroyed," after which the audience stopped laughing in principle
he has been within a bus drive of me. a b u s.
if i was the mic i would not be moving away ahahaha
I feel bad for bo, i live in the uk and i just had that instinct that people wouldnt laugh much at him because people have fucking standards over here i felt sooooo bad when the crowd was silent whrn he expected them to say oh bo.
I know right hahaha I love it.
He didn’t expect them to, Was prob part of the joke.
Look how quick recovered
Subtle wink at 0:38 for the win.
He said "fur jet ski" instead of "gold jet ski"....
He does that sometimes
Whenever he looks to his left, he winks XD
People who go to BBC Comedy in Edinburgh aren't really huge fans of singing along Bo...
THAT'S THE JOKE
*whoosh*
3:06 i wonder if he did that because of the audience?
hahaha laughed so hard at how he freaked out on the piano at the end.
@ddrboy54 Yeah. Timing is one of the major keys to being a great comedian. He has AMAZING timing.
God I love this guy
i love the chord he ends this song with hahahah
It's so funny when they don't say anything the second time and he's like "really?"
902 people didn't grab Bo by his buns. 12 people now know what the runs are.
Comedy aside for a second, this is actually an extremely catchy tune haha
Who would dislike this!!!!!
i wish he kicked the piano at the end
\This is the best i've ever seen him perform this song! amazing!
If he came to Edinburgh this year, I would go and I would shout at the top of my lungs OHHHHH BOOO! 😂
Holy shit Bo went fucking crazy lol
At :02 Bo was kinda hoping for an applause or some sort of recognition after thanking the crowd but all he got was the silent treatment. You can see his eyes darting in every direction as a signal of, "Get me out of here...".
@psychosissafari he only hates it when he doesnt call on people to do it, when i went to see him he got pissed when people sang but when he sang oh bo he called on the audience to sing "oh bo" at those same two parts
Agreed. That's why I don't do live shows...I couldn't handle the silence after my comedy songs, haha.
Dont worry bo i was singing along during the whole damn thing :)
Live version is way better than the album.
3:07 WHAT THE FUCK HE LEGIT SLAMS THE KEYBOARD LMFAO
if i was in the audience i would’ve said OHHHHHHHH BO
dang i love that man
it kinda makes it more funny when they dont say anything tho because he's reaction is funny..
: ]
oh bo you are right on so many levels *salivating*
Oh bo. I love you.
This is my Fav song from his new Cd!
Hahaha your tags are effin hilarious.
@gunn1314 Notice that also happens in the music vid for this song. Ever think it might be on purpose?
