In the 90-minute show, the chronically self-aware Burnham captures the lockdown state of mind with chilling precision - depression, motivational struggles, and all - as he makes his way through 20 original songs represented here on the nearly hour-long Inside (The Songs). He does well to address uneasy topics - the appropriateness of humor in the time of a deadly pandemic, speaking from white male privilege during a call for minority representation - right out of the gate on self-depreciating songs like 'Comedy' and 'How the World Works.'...He delves into social media and technology on tracks including 'White Woman's Instagram,' 'Sexting,' and 'Welcome to the Internet'...comes to terms with turning 30 on the self-loathing '30'; and later discusses his panic attacks with a highly processed alt-R&B on 'All Eyes on Me.' By the time he reaches repetitive closing track 'Any Day Now,' it's clear that Burnham has delivered a comedy classic as well as a snapshot of the time.
