Yeah. What's even more eerie - the video was awarded at 2001 VMA's, and then Fred got a thank you letter and a fruit basket from the Port Authority of NYC, for featuring the building in the video - it arrived the day before the attack.
It's called Nu-Metal and it has bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Korn, Papa Roach, Powerman 5000, Static X and hundreds more. Slipknot and Linkin Park are the ones who really put this genre on the map while the bands that followed kept it alive.
Brad Delson is the reason why I started to play guitar. Of course there are others that inspired me to learn to play, but Brad from Linkin Park was my niche. My first guitar was a PRS that I still play today. Nice to see other's recognize the lesser thought of guitarist in HUGE bands (especially Nu-Metal) like Wes and Brad!
yeah . wes is probably one of the most OVERLOOKED guitarists... dude has such unique songwriting techniques and such a good ear. i loved his guitar sounds and riffs.
@@nsasupporter7557 i have such great memories with this song, My older sibling used to always blast limp bizkit in his car when he took me to fishing and all over the country. Brings me back.
@@michaelriddick7116 Different lifetime! This music video was filmed around August ~ September 2000. The last year of the 20th century and 2nd millennium!
I used to listen to Limp Bizkit during my WWE phase in high school. This song was once The Undertaker's intro music. I cringe so hard listening to it now. 😂
It's hilarious to see all the people shit on Limp Bizkit nowadays trying to say they were always trash and acting like they were some kind of weird fringe music that only weirdos listened to. Then when you go back and watch their videos, everyone who was anyone at the time is making appearances.
It's weird to hear her say it takes her down memory lane, when I was 20 when this was released and it felt so fresh and fun. LB were just fun back then.
this song was released September 5th a week before the 9/11 attacks happened. And as others mentioned they were able to film on top of the twin towers for the video.
I wrote the song, and did the guitar,, Princess Diana's appointment at the world trade Centre charity event in New York City On The Tuesday morning at 9 am On The Tuesday morning at the world trade Centre charity event On The 11 September 2001 remember that girl in fight club movie is Princess Diana's ghost
No, the music video was filmed around August ~ September 2000, the last year of the 20th century and 2nd millennium! The song was released around October.
To make sense of the Ben Stiller cameo a bit, this music video was filmed around the same time zoolander was filmed, Ben appeared in this and Fred appeared in zoolander.
Actually the movie Meet the Parents was more around this time. This song came out in 2000, which was when Meet the Parents came out. Zoolander came out the following year in 2001
@@xxjayjay01xx oh yeah, true. I’m not a Ben Stiller fan, I actually think he only became famous because of his mom and dad… they were already famous. So he got lucky. The only semi decent Ben Stiller movie was “There’s Something About Mary” and that wasn’t even all that good
Zoolander was being talked about on television as the plane went into the world trade Centre, Zoolander and John wick have the same batshit crazy story line just different producers
Out of all the reactions of this I have watched, you are the only one who noticed Stephen Dorff (Yes, he played Deacon Frost in BLADE). Good eye girl! I was at Woodstock '99 and these guys killed it! Fred went crowd surfing on a piece of plywood for a bit... just absolute MADNESS. Best time of my life!
This was the beginning of the Nu-Metal genre. Them and Korn started it all. Also this song will forever be The Undertakers theme song when he was American Badass to me
I miss music like this. It was for sure fun. Yeah, I was a senior in HS when this came out, such an interesting time in music looking back on it. It's funny, because all throughout the 90s the whole thing was pushing back on censorship and LB was a huge middle finger to that group that was saying it was music, movies, and games that were screwing up the kids. You can hear that a lot in Eminem's early music too. Sad to think censorship ultimately won, because music that just didn't give a F is gone.
No matter how much i delve deeper into more progressive and more complex metal, songs like these, other nu metal, and even some 80s glam metal will always be a fun time to put on now and then
What's wild is that while we give Nu Metal a hard time.. They kept guitars and real musicians in the pop scene.. Like look at pop over the last 13-15 years, there are barely any if any guitars in the top 10. I'd be more than happy to put metal into these charts again, because its fun music at the end of the day.
I give zero fucks what anyone says, this band remains the best house party band to play if you are ready for the party to jump off and get people on their feet.
Such a fun song and one that also brings ne NaCl to those early 2000s too!! I love your reaction to this and all your other videos. You are very sweet and lovely!! 🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️
Two more Limp Bizkit songs to react to: - Rearranged (from 2nd album) - Out of Style (From latest album) Rearranged isn't really a "typical" Limp Bizkit song. But it's one of my favourites from their earlier work.
I have got to ask you how old you are! I watch tons of these reaction videos and I can't believe how many of you " reactors" have never heard of bands like Metallica, Korn, Pantera, etc. There is no way possible you have never heard of these bands unless you grew up in an Amish community!
They were rarely ever serious, mostly because of Fred and his lyricism (he had a few shining moments but not much)... The cool thing about them is that, instrumentally, they were fucking incredible (still are).
An exceptional country version of this was done by Robyn Adele Anderson/ Sarah Krauss/ Julianne Daley, and a jazz version of "Break Stuff" by RAA by herself
The building they were on was one of the twin tower's, and a year after it came out they received an award for the video like a week before 9/11 and one day before the attacks they received a gift from some of the people who worked there
This is the only thing I think about when I see this video. It is very creepy. The band received a letter from the WTC congratulating the band on the VMA the video on Sept 10, 2001
Nice to see an younger perspective. Off on some stuff here but I get why!. Thanks for the vid! Calling it 2000's style is sorta strange as this style was more 90's and died off in the 2000's. (song released in the year 2000). Also you can't call it nostalgic the whole time and then in the end admit you have not listened to anything by them.
2000’s was peak fun and awesomeness for America. Films, music, and God knows what else has just fallen off a cliff. Not much creativity happening these days.
Memory lane for sure. I was 18 years old when this came out! Limp Bizkit was huge back then. We also thought we were cool doing the rollin crotch grab at 18.
Pretty cool song! Always enjoyed it and still do today! The song came out in 2000, the last year of the 20th century and 2nd millennium! (It was pretty much the tail end of the "90s" before the "2000s" kicked in.) The music video was filmed around August ~ September 2000. The towers you see in the video are indeed the World Trade Center, the South Tower in this case. Limp Bizkit received a letter in the mail from the World Trade Center's building manager on September 10 2001, thanking them for choosing the World Trade Center for the music video and also congratulating them for winning the "Rock Video Of The Year" Award at the MTV Video Music Awards - which took place on September 6 2001… Cheers 🙂
I'm not only change the name of the band to limp bizkit but also played lead guitarist and singer,,,,,,, you have to watch the movie called fight club with Brad Pitt, this song is about my appointment at Princess Diana's appointment at the world trade Centre charity event in building 2 at 9 am On The Tuesday morning the 11 September 2001,,, remember that date???
You know, you mention who much you like 2000s music and yet haven't seen one of those songs that has all these same elements but that you haven't mentioned yet. That being Kid Rock "Bawitdaba" and "Cowboy." The first is a banger I would put up against any of the day (or since) along with lots of fun and the second slipping right into that fun category you mentioned. I might also add--as I'm absolutely sure people have mentioned before--you've still got at least two songs that compete right up there with "Rollin." Those being "Nookie" and "Break Stuff." Every time I hear one of these, I say to myself this is the best Bizkit song, until I hear the other one. And as good as "My Generation" is, it's a bit of a step down from the other big three. BTW: LOVE the fun you have with this genre! And just noticed I kind of said the same thing said in the second paragraph in an earlier comment from over a month ago. Yes, I'm a multi-time listener to the reactionaries ( ;-) ) I watch.
Eminem became big in the same time and was a friend of Fred Durst, the lead singer of LB. They featured them both in videos in this days but Eminem start a diss fight because of LB DJ Lethal (an ex-member of House of Pain - a band who was lead by Eminem personal enemy Everlast) and diss also Fred Durst in different tracks. That ends the friendship. And crop tops and baggy pants are back in the youth trends. I'm now 42 wearing baggy back in this days and celebrate the comeback of this type of pants. I hate this ultra skin type pants from the time period before this trend. 😅
does she know what the "chocolate starfish" means?and the song at the begining was their own song "my generation". plus you gotta watch the video/song "break stuff" alot of big name cameos in there.
If you are going to go down the Limp Bizkit rabbit hole they have a lot of super fun super 2000s songs that just rock but also you HAVE to check their cover of Behind Blue Eyes - they can actually sing beautifully too. If you want a fun song thats probably even more relevant now days My Generation. Also if you want a song that hits different as you get older check out Almost Over.
"So 2000's" hits differently when you realize they filmed this on top of one of the World Trade Center buildings 11 months before 9/11.
Yeah. What's even more eerie - the video was awarded at 2001 VMA's, and then Fred got a thank you letter and a fruit basket from the Port Authority of NYC, for featuring the building in the video - it arrived the day before the attack.
Thanks for the observations @@_nopestr
Thanks for pointing this out check out gematria effect news by Zachary k hubbard for a ton of info on these subjects.
The south tower to be exact
The shit song probably caused the muslims to bring them down.
Wes Borland really emphasized the Rock in this genre. He and Brad Delson (Linkin Park), never compromised the Rock element of the "Rap Rock" genre.
It's called Nu-Metal and it has bands like Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Slipknot, Korn, Papa Roach, Powerman 5000, Static X and hundreds more. Slipknot and Linkin Park are the ones who really put this genre on the map while the bands that followed kept it alive.

"not meant to be taken seriously...just outrageous fun" PERFECTLY stated... yes do more they had a lot of FUN hits back then
Watch the Video for their song Break Stuff. Its full with actors and musicians.
My generation too
did u hear break stuff egged the crowd in '99 to riot
Limp bizkit - Boiler, such a great song by them and one of their best imo.
Yeah, it's a masterpiece
They have alot of good songs to check out! Break Stuff, Nookie, Take A Look Around, Boiler, Re-Arranged, Behind Blue Eyes, Eat You Alive.
I liked Limp Bizkit as a teenager, but I grew out of it

Good is a uh... strong word
It’s always eerie to see the Twin Towers at the beginning and end. The outside scenes with them at night is on top of one of the towers.
Ya, its wild thinking about the pre-9/11 world sometimes 😢

The night shots with them singing on top of a building, it was the World Trade Center a year before the were knocked down.

This song brings back so many fond memories of me being in seventh grade at my old junior high school in 2000/2001
I bought this album on cassette at the drugstore when it came out.
There was another version of this with other artists with them. Rollin' Urban Assault Vehicle
An exceptional country version of this was done by Robyn Adele Anderson/ Sarah Krauss/ Julianne Daley, and a jazz version of "Break Stuff" by RAA by herself

This kinda reminds me of little bit of the American badass The Undertaker
I had so much fun jamming to LB back then
That "outfit" is the creature known as Wes Borland
Its awesome that you're into the music I grew up on 😃💯!
Here for more!
LB still amazing. They just pump you up and have fun with it.
Urban assault vehicles the best version of this song
More Limp Bizkit would be great!
gotta listen to uncensored versions of these songs
Wow! The World Trade Center..😮no words
Filmed this on the twin towers shortly before 9/11 too. Insane.
2000 - no iphones, no internet, but Rollin!
Kind of surreal that the outside scenes were filmed on top of the world trade center! 1 yr before 9/11
Feels like I'm back in high-school listening to this.
Eminem and Fred Durst were friends, Eminem is in Limp Bizkits Break Stuff video and I think they have done songs together
The video was filmed on the roof of one of the twin towers in NYC on 10th September 2000.

Check Break Stuff from Aftershock 2023, they still rocking and they sound so good after all this time.

Next react "Break Stuff" 😅
This song includes in the first Fast and Furious Movie.
i feel so old now. i was in my early twenties.....
I’m watching this to support you Rach. 🤘🏻💥🔥🙏🏻💯
The only song I like from them is called “Break Stuff”
I was breakdancing to this song in early 2000 in Russia, also do more Slipknot coves , we got more in common
I need you to hurry up and react to the 3rd pain remains! The anticipation is killing me 😂
Little did they know that a year latter the building they preformed on would come crashing down. 😢
Yeah, it’s crazy and sad…
This is objectively better than any new 'song'.
Urban assault vehicle is the best version of Rollin !
does she know what the "chocolate starfish" means?and the song at the begining was their own song "my generation". plus you gotta watch the video/song "break stuff" alot of big name cameos in there.
React to "My Generation" by Limp Bizkit as well! 👌
it's a fun track, makes me want to party!
They covered Faith by George Michael on their first album
I'll never fault you for going in for some more Limp!
Guitarist is so sick
Limp Bizkit kept me alive during my divorce. Im 53 years old, and i still blare this song PROUDLY !!
Some scenes here were filmed on top of the WTC!
This was the last video I believe that was performed on the Twin tours before 9/11
wwe undertakers theme song early 2000's haha love it!
If you are going to go down the Limp Bizkit rabbit hole they have a lot of super fun super 2000s songs that just rock but also you HAVE to check their cover of Behind Blue Eyes - they can actually sing beautifully too.
If you want a fun song thats probably even more relevant now days My Generation.
Also if you want a song that hits different as you get older check out Almost Over.
I like how you know a supporting actor from Blade but not Limp Bizkit. 😂 Love it.
One of the wildest songs in 2000s 😃
You should see the MTV awards interview with Fred Durst and Slim Shady
Present 🤓☝🏽
Stephen dorph was the actors name from blade
Em is a contemporary of LB and appears in their Break Stuff video
