the original name of the song was "Suicide," but columbia records made them change it to make it radio friendly.
the title is a bit of a play on words - "Suey-cide."
also: the guitarist Daron Malakian wrote it with lead singer, and he explained: "The song is about how when people die, they will be regarded differently depending on the way they pass. Like, if I were to die from a drug overdose, everyone would say I deserved it because I abused drugs, hence the line 'Angels deserve to die.'"
its a great song with a great message, its timeless.
Daron didn't write all of the song though. I love Daron, but only giving him credit is kind of crap. Serj is responsible for the stuff from the bible.
This explains the disdain on their faces when eating the chop suey. Thanx.
My son overdosed already reminded me of him. Thanks for that info
Daron wrote the music, Serj wrote the lyrics, I believe. Daron wrote several songs on the following albums (usually the worst lyrics in my opinion)
Daron denied the label not liking it bs. They just thought it was a lazy title. “Chop suey” was a wordplay coming from b&w gangster movies about death that fitted perfectly into the song and that’s it.
11:11 - The exact moment he understood, that the build up to these harmonies was genius
System of a down are Americans of Armenian origin so you you have a very good ear for
I was so impressed he clocked that!
This is one of the best reviews of this song - nice work. Toxicity is another great SOAD song.
Most of SOAD is magical let it ride brother!
I think it's impossible to be Armenian and not be polical in so e way
BYOB is my fave, personally
"The guitar player really creeps me out though."
Somewhere, Darren just smiled but he isn't sure why.
😂
System Of A Down - Toxicity. You must listen that song!
I agree. Toxicity and also Sugar! Maximum the Hormone are often compared to SOAD. Serj Tankien is a genius! Thank you for this! Keep 'em coming!
A Maximum the Hormone song was randomly played by my Spotify the other day and I thought it WAS a SOAD song until the singing. 💀
“Father into your hands I commend my spirit” and “Why have you forsaken me?” were two of the final seven phrases spoken to God by Jesus as he hung upon the Cross.
You'd enjoy BYOB a lot, listen to it and the message. Awesome band.
One of the most beautiful songs ever to be played on radio man just haunting, moving, brilliant!
That was really one of the best reviews I've seen for this song!
My favorite part is when he sings “why have you forsaken me”
Dude do more System of a Down! I know you’ll like them. They are heavy!
Try System of a down - Question!
It's the most dynamic song I've ever heard.
Beautiful is the perfect word for this song, particularly that last piece
My god, the years you have missed are the years I love. Hope you enjoy catching up
Don't know how I missed this upload! I love SOAD. They were going on a reunion tour before covid happened and released 2 songs last year. A lot of the songs have political or religious messages, and the songs are always great. Serg has one of the best voices in rock.
You are the first reactor to notice...Hey, they're eating Chop Suey! Thank you!! ❤
Always remember... 3 months later the world changed after this song came out...
An absolute beast of a song.
So, two notes about the chorus
SOAD typically does this where they completely pull the rug from under you when they swap from verse to chorus.
The "Eastern Europe - Western Asia" feel comes from them playing on a bouzouki during the chorus, which is mostly played around the area of Greece/Turkey/Armenia.
Holy crap, love your way of analisys, thats about all I wanna say, thats all there needs to be said ! thx.
The drummer has the determined, confused look of every industrious high school dropout I've ever known.
Just by reacting to SOAB deserves my subscription. Greetings from Greenland..
Ah one of my favourites, don't know how I missed you reacting to this but so glad you did! I need to see if I missed you watching serj tankians solo - Empty walls because that's brilliant!
im a fan of SOAD and love chop suey as a food but didn't know its name is chop suey. Thanks to you, im illuminated after five years
the musicians and these different people are in a box Chop Suey
The beginning of the song, you can hear the words "we're rolling suicide" which is what the Suey in "Chop Suey" means.
Loving your reactions! Have you tried TOOL yet? Mighty, mighty Tool. Please react to Forty Six and 2, Stinkfist, The Pot, Vicarious....etc etc etc!
When angels deserve to...
DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great review.
Awesome Reaction, Your Knowledge of music and instruments is something I haven't seen on RUclips and Your Breakdown is Legit!! Subbed!!
Also are you Bert Kreischer's aka "The Machine" more Intelligent and more handsome Younger Brother?! lol

Good job on nailing the Armenian influence. They are staunchly proud Armenian-Americans and introduced their fans to the Armenian holocaust as part of their concert experience.
If I meet someone who has never heard of SOAD before, and they listen to this song for the first time and don't think.. holy fuck... I know we'll never get past the small talk stage
Yeah speechless like most people who hear SOAD for the first time. Relax and enjoy masterpiece. Fact. 100 best hard rock vocals. Serj is vote 24 best hard rock/ metal singer.
Great reaction, dude. You just got yourself a new sub :).
You really should check out more of SOAD's songs, especially the ones on the album Toxicity or the song B.Y.O.B. I mean genuinely every album is awesome, but Toxicity is on another level imo.
They're from Glendale, ca. They're family is from Armenia
If you haven't checked it out, there are two great System of a Down covers by Halocene, Lauren Babic and Violet Orlandi on youtube, one of them is Chop Suey.
Hey OSN, great reaction, one of my favorite SOAD songs I think you'll like is Aerials.
Please react to toxicity!! I love your reactions!
👍 cant believe I missed this
Well, their Singer IS an Armenian, maybe you could hear that out. BUT! You have to check out later/earlier Songs from them, the most of the Songs from them is about the Armenian genocid, or the "great America". I love their Messages since i know them (2001). For the next you could check out ATTACK! or Prison Song/BYOB. Have fun!
How is Australia and Michigan the same the same??,?
there soul is punk emo hardcore.... love em
CHOP SUEY IS LIVE ON RUclips!!!! HUZZAH!!!!!
Doode awesome inference about Armenian folk, right on the money
Don't forget Systemmmmm
My best mate in high school was, who i thought, the pinnacle of Metallica fanbase, had a copy of a dj remix of for whom the bell tolls which stood up remarkably. This, and Rammstein, were the rest of his favourite metal bands
Please can we please get this man to watch and React to HELLYEAH please
Not sure if you will get this since this vid is a few months old. on the album version you can hear one of the band members say to another "We're rolling Suicide." right before the guitar intro starts. Given the og name was Suicide i think it's a neat little tidbit if you cath it. also If you havent yet, you should listen to Toxicity as well!
I'm floored that the video for this song has over a billion views. I remember picking up this album when it was released and this song was good but didn't really stand out for me....perhaps because I already knew the band from their album prior so it wasn't unique.
Interesting you compared them to Jinjer...I can definitely hear the similarities with the blends of styles and melodic breakdowns and then, as a whole, the "non-formulaic" song structures over the course of their discographies. Personally, I like Jinjer more (actually more than any other band beside Metallica) for many reasons but of course because of what Tatiana brings to the table.
Evenesance
GOGOL BORDELLO is also fire-check out video for THE COLOR PURPLE
Wow you nailed it they are all Armenian good job
Well, I'd have a few albums worth of suggestions for SoaD songs, though as you already mentioned Aerials and it doesn't seem to be on your channel, I hope you get to do that at some point.
Check other songs, man!
That was awesome
Not here in Brazil 👏👏👏👏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Toxicity is a master piece!!!
Im so in disbelief this is your first time hearing them insane
Can you do some more System of a Down please.
Actually have a cover of them on Tuesday
@@OldSkuleNerd Oh ok sorry I meant originals. 😅 Sorry if it seems like I am being annoying.
Please do Toxicity!!
Give the singers solo song empty walls a listen to.
There's a lot of meat on this bone. Check out "Hypnotize" next.
if you like some of the foreign rock you should look at Heilung - In maijdan
SOAD : toxicity - sigar - prison song - BYOB - aerials - moutains hollywood - needles - spiders
Definitely check out Question! Amazing song. Easily one of my favorites of theirs. Also the video fits perfectly. Toxicity and BYOB are great songs, and I'm sure I'm going to catch flack for saying this, but Question! is better IMO.
🤣🤣🤣 missed this one - did you ever get round to doing Toxicity as well? 🧔🧔🧔🇦🇺
B.Y.O.B. 😎
Machine Head is another great Metal band of your lost era. Check out "Imperium"
"Could be Armenian" holy shit, he nailed it
bert kreischer?
ur good. hes Armenian
15 think it's more like 100
GWAR, Clutch, Sevendust, Soulfly.
jinjer dramatic = system of a down dramatic
Definitely BYOB.
You want metal... Try some GWAR-Metal Metal Land
can t really blame you for stepping away from metal around the 90s-early 2000s most of it was pretty stale but now you can look back and cherrypick the best
B.Y.O.B (Bring your own b*mb)
Toxicity is the best
Really? Nobody??
Well i will do it myself:
T A B L E
REACT TO COHEED AND CAMBRIA thank me later
Linkin park
"It could be Armenian..."
Funny you should mention that, because all the members are Armenian. lol
that was a long intro then you paused it in 2 seconds...i'l try and stay with it
Ok ok hear me out Limp bizkit gold cobra I beg of you no one has reacted to it
Aerials is way better
You talk to much in your videos. I wanna see you REACT not talk through everything
Yeah I can see the similarities to Jinjer in style. Very artistic metal IMO with a lot of mixes with sounds and styles.
I would love to see you react to Holy mountain by SOAD when you get a chance. It's an absolutely soul wrenching (When you know the context) and beautiful piece.
Yeah speechless like most people who hear SOAD for the first time. Relax and enjoy masterpiece. Fact. 100 best hard rock vocals. Serj is vote 24 best hard rock/ metal singer.
so, you can't go wrong with any SOAD song. Toxcitiy, Chop Suey, BYOB and Aerials are the "typical 4", although you could add Prison Song to make that 5, these are the ones that all the reactors react to and then they never do any other songs, which is a shame. Many people miss out on masterpieces like Holy Mountains, Soldier Side, Lonely Day, Tentative as well as their more.. out there songs, like Bounce, Vicinity of Obscenity, Cigaro and Violent Pornography. SOAD is a trip, they do serious stuff like Prison Song and then on the same album they have Bounce. SOAD is a wild ride of joy, switch ups, harmonies, messages and crazy fun.
So please, don't be like other reactors, give their songs the attention they deserve and not just the super famous ones.
Radio/Video and Revenga are great songs too. They are so good at making awesome intros for their songs, especially the guitar driven intros. And I really wish that the “Solider side (intro)” was longer and evolved into an epic piece, that guitar riff is just awesomeness.
Their transitions are amazing and his voice is just ugh so beautiful
"The song is about how when people die, they will be regarded differently depending on the way they pass. Like, if I were to die from a drug overdose, everyone would say I deserved it because I abused drugs, hence the line 'Angels deserve to die.'" That's a quote from the writer (guitarist) Daron Malakian
Toxicity was the album as was number 1 on the billboard charts when 9.11 happened, mainstream music has changed so much.
They are Armenian! 😀👍👌
"Could be Armenian". The entire band is Armenian, so I think you got it.
You should do BYOB.
oh you even mention it in the end, yeah totally react to it and to toxicity.
