This time of year makes me think of a lot of things, leaves, pumpkins, apples, apple cider, apple pie...lots of apple-y things. But, what I can't get out of my head since the weather and leaves have started changing is Bo Burnham's song White Woman's Instagram from his album Inside. Pumpkins only show up a few times in the song/video but I really have been singing this song in my head since fall began. Maybe it's the perfectly curated instagram posts this season demands...who knows...anyway, enjoy!
I love stand-up comedy and I really love when comedians can write super clever, hilarious, and well-written songs. I want my musical comedy to sound so much like a song on the radio (remember those?) that if someone overheard it they would be surprised by the hilarious lyrics and then in awe of my incredible taste in songs and laughs. Bo Burnham does all that and more. Filmed during the pandemic at Bo's home, Inside, is honest, raw, hilarious, and silly. Just like his 2016 special, Make Happy, Inside leaves you feeling as if you have just experienced something so special, so different, it stays with you. My recommendation is to check out each one of his specials, they are all fantastic. As you witness Bo's growth, you may just find some inspiration to look at your own.
Even though I'm not a song writer or comedian, what puts me in the flow more than anything is listening to musical comedy. I love the creativity this genre inspires.
What gets you in the flow? Tell me in the comments.
Fall is definitely in the air and with it, all sorts of wonderful things! Bo Burnham's song White Woman's Instagram from his album Inside cracked me up! I was worried for a moment that it was going to be a Country song... but nope! I cracked up listening to it! I think this song is so funny and clever!
I hope you all have a wonderful Fall season!
Well that video really got me going! Now I'll have the tune in my head all day! LOL My favorite to get me in the flow is some fast paced country music. In fact my favorite country song is I'm in a Hurry by Alabama band. It fits me perfectly!
Wow, that was eye-opening for me. I checked my IG, it started off like what he was singing about, but as I have been more in tune with self-healing (Hay House books are my inspiration), I let go of a lot of the past self, and my posts have evolved along with my heart. It's a beautiful thing to witness personal growth like that. Thank you for sharing. Sending lots of love and virtual hugs. Jaime
That was funny! You know what puts me in the creative mood? Watching painting videos on YouTube. There's something just so engaging about it.
Alright now I have that hilarious song in my head and can’t get it out!! Thank you for sharing. He’s hysterical!
