I shared the progression of the “script” in the comments... where I think fear is speaking and where NF comes in. Great reaction Altspace! That was all of us haha
@@AltSpace I think Jonny is the man who abused him in mansion “took me to the basement and beat me till I screamed and cried” “wish I was burying anger but I’ll need him for that song he still LIVES in the basement “
I wanted to check the comments before adding one similar to this because when I saw his entire face light up I was like, light bulb! He figured it out!
'Johnny' was his mothers boyfriend however, it's not his name. Johnny is a worldwide known and used name among kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at the hands of a male parent/guardian, refer to them as.
he is also referring to Johnny from The Shining. When they moved into the hotel, which they called a mansion, he became abusive. Like Jackel & hide. He is basically calling his mothers past boyfriend “HERES JOHNNY “ from the shining
Johnny is not his name. Johnny is a worldwide known name for a male parent/guardian that kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at their hand by, refer to them as.
This one is next level. Lost can't get here fast enough. Even saying that, don't cheat the journey, take your time and enjoy the ride. Also, What the actual F@#k is an appropriate reaction.
@@AltSpace listen again and pay attention to the production. It's like a 22oz steak, sometimes you have to take a rest and come back later to finish all the goodness.
Here’s what I believe the script to this song is for anyone wondering how the dialogue works. FEAR: What, are you scared of me? It's embarrassing... If it wasn't for me, you would've never wrote Therapy... I've been here for you, but how come you're never there for me? It's a little bit twisted, but I miss when you and I had scary dreams... NF: I don't really wanna talk about it... FEAR: -Well, that's too bad now, Nate. shut up! Now where were we? Way back in the day when You and I had it all mapped out in the basement Cryin' in your room like a baby "I wish mom was here" We all do so we wouldn't have to hear about it Every single record you don't really wanna change me Yeah, I'm the one that made this happen Do you really wanna get rid of your main attraction? Let's pack our bags and go back to Gladwin now Yeah, it's time for the third record And you know I got the content I don't wanna make you nervous But it ain't like it used to be We got a lotta people watchin' You told me that you don't want me in your life That's pretty hard to digest And I told you I'd leave when we die, and we ain't died yet Therapy Session was beautiful, Nate, but I'm wonderin' what's comin' next Yeah, get that stupid hat off of your head when I'm talkin' to you, you hear what I said? You don't like the prison I been with you? Yeah, you wanna know what the funny thing is? You keep on talkin' to me like a stranger, but we've been together since you were a kid Took us from a no-name Told you everything was okay Now you tryna cut me out of it like I ain't never been a part of it I am the heart of it, I made this whole thing Yeah, I put us on the dope stage You must have no brain What's the point of having guns if you can't aim? What's the point of having blood with no vein? What's the point of having love with no pain? What I'm sayin' is me without you doesn't make any sense I know I'm intense in controlling, but you need to learn how to cope with it That's just the way that it is If you didn't want me to live in your house, you shouldn't have let me move in It's comfortable here and I like it, I got my own room and everything It don't get better than this! You say you wanna own your life, then wake up and take your own advice You just mad 'cause you know I'm right Yeah, I'm flattered you put me in Mansion, but you should've told 'em right 'Bout your hands on the coldest nights You didn't tell 'em 'bout the times you and I used to hold the mic I mean, what are you, outta your mind? 'Cause both of us will be Come on, let's go outside! NF: Is this what you wanted? Both of us out in the open? Let's do it then I mean, why are you doin' this? I know that you're mad, but I'm not in the mood for this We got a record to drop So why you actin' like I'm not a part of it? And where is my shovel at?

I'm the reason why- NF: Nah, shut up, I don't wanna hear another sentence FEAR (desperate): Hey, I'm NF, is it me or the fear talkin'? Ha! What a dumb question! Yeah, it's real music 'til the day we die, right!? Yeah, ain't that the slogan, Nathan!? NF: Thought I told you to keep your mouth shut FEAR: I mean, so what? You know I never listen! ... Let me guess We gon' dig a hole, kill the track, and prolly put a beat in it Rap about it for like three minutes Aye, that's pretty deep, isn't it? ... Wait a minute, you don't really think for a second that you're puttin' me in this? NF: No, of course not, just a lil' deeper then we can go inside and we can stop diggin' FEAR: Woo! You had me scared for a second, I though we were diggin' my grave *boss smack upside the head with shovel* NF: We did, what, you don't bein' afraid? Here’s a dose of your own medicine What, you don't like how it tastes? My therapist told me don't bury my issues, but I'ma be honest, man I'm feelin' great!

You'll spend the rest of your life in my backyard or back of my mind, depends how you see it Put the shovel away, time to go back in the house now, you'll be out in a week Tellin' me you want your room back, that's funny, what, you ain't got nowhere to sleep? I'ma just look out the window and laugh at you, this is crazy to me 'Cause I thought you had me in prison this whole time, but I'm the one holdin' the keys
Thank u so much for not asking who was rapping and figured out that was fear, I got excited seeing your reaction. NF JOURNEY IS CRAZY so just put your sit belt everytime you press play and be ready to let NF become your favorite rapper.
Thank you so much for watching, from the depths of my soul, it's honestly comments like this that Inspire me to keep going and discover more of not his music but amazing artists I've never heard of before ❤️
When he says “Crying in your room like a baby, I wish mom was here, we all do so we wouldn’t have to hear about it every single record” he talking about how his mom died and he’s basically making fun of himself for missing his mum which is kinda sad don’t y’all think? 😢
17:14 NF said that from a storytelling perspective, Nate then Intro III then How Could You Leave Us as his top three songs he as an artist as written. So what this means is you are going to love Nate when you get to that song.
Dude. I love the song Nate. And at the very end when he talks about what he achieved is so dope. Idk why but it pumps me up everytime I hear that part haha
DUDE, nailed it! Keep listening a few more times and you'll notice who is talking at different times. So awesome to see someone appreciate how NF ties everything together. Just wait, bruh, just wait. This is a top 3 favorite but the story goes on
I've heard this song over 50 times and heard a lot of reactors react to it.. never thought about the 3 intro's connecting in the way you described. This is the reason I listen to reactions.. to see different perspectives
By the way...I never caught that multiple about “crying in your room like a baby” “you don’t really wanna change me” his mom probably was like that...he was more a burden to her than anything.
Love the reaction!! It's rare to see someone who understands the whole story, thank you very much !! This song is crazy🔥 He didn't do any other songs with other characters, but one theory says maybe he'll do the anger song because at the end of the Paid my dues video,Nate could be in the basement (where he said there's anger too) The perception album is where he started using these cinematic sounds and I love them! Nate said the best experience recording a song was with this song. He said he had goosebumps, his heart was pounding and he was shaking It's crazy how music can have this effect on him! Before moving on,I recommend that you go back because you skipped part of the journey. Outro comes first, then Green Lights and then this song. I think it's important to do them if you don't want to miss anything I can't wait for another video Much love!
Yeah, maybe it will but I just don't know what to expect. The theory I have read from other people and it might make sense, but at the same time I don't know, maybe it's also a bit difficult that it will be like this. And then the word Lost I really don't know what it means We'll see anyway!
And this is why the NF journey is so important! Intro 3 is a brilliant masterpiece and even NF said that this is his favorite piece of work. Your reaction was priceless, one of the best I have seen. I love watching people react to NF just to see their expressions!
Dude, I’m in the middle of a road trip and it’s snowing like mad and I see this video pop up. So I did what any sensible person would do: pulled over to the side of the freeway and played the video! Lol! Now you’re starting to see the big picture view of NF! I think that’s why the fans love him in my opinion. Outro is the end of this “trilogy.” The Search begins a new trilogy (presumably). Remember, when you watch Outro, please pay special attention to the visuals. They will blow you away just like this video did. Keep up the great reactions!
MORE SUBSCRIBERS SHALL ARRIVE, THIS REACTION IS WHAT U CALL RELEVANT AND INTELLIGENT, THIS DUDE USES HIS KNOWLEDGE NOT JUST FULL OF DOG EXPRESSIONS LIKE "AAAWWW" "OOOOOW". THE BEST ANALYSIS I EVER SLIDED INTO LOOOOOL
Thank you! Hands down one of the nicest comments I've received! So funny you mentioned that I kind of referenced that in a video I just put out! Just reacted to outcast :) thank you so much for watching
When it clicked for you I yelled out w/my headphones on in my room "He gets it!" 😂 Much love from South Carolina big dog, its super exciting to see somebody else experience my favorite artist for the first time.
NF is an amazing lyricist I love his bars so much, but it's so great when you see a rapper talking about real things and personal experiences. Your reactions are amazing 👏🏻👏🏻 please keep them up! ♡
FYI Nate dropped the music video “Outro” before the Perception album was released. It was kind of a wrap up of the first two albums and ties into the third album. Great reaction and commentary Brother!
how he talks to his alter egos and that, just amazing the man can tie in lyrics to everything just an incredible mind, honestly im a huge eminem fan but i would rate NF above that, best story teller out there period
I love the moment it all clicked. This is how I felt the first time listening to this as well. So cool how he strings all these songs together and ties everything in. The Outcast video also starts with him in a jail cell holding keys. Dude is next level genius.
This is where the jump happened for NF to me. The building blocks, the lyricism, the creativity were all there and improving. Now, it all blows up. Make sure you listen to Outro before going too far further in the journey. It ties into this...
The growth has been unreal, I'm still going between Mansions and Therapy Session as I really want to sit with those albums (It's also because I have a cool idea for a video once the journey is complete! )
@@AltSpace I'm ready to see the wrap up video for the journey especially since you have to get through The Search to get there. Honestly I would do every single song from that album cause their all so cool in their alown way and I would really like to see your reaction to all of them and if you don't I hope you dont miss a banger of a song from here on out especially in the search album
This is the best breakdown of this song I've ever heard. When it comes to music, there are very few tremendous ARTISTS out there. NF is the greatest ARTIST in music today, maybe of all time. Most people just don't understand!
@@AltSpace still watching your video bro. Very good! Gave me more angles. Johnny is the step father that abused NF. Mentioned in Mansion. IMO Just keep on the journey.
There's so many ways to interpret this song, I could probably make another 3 videos on it. I don't think my analysis went deep enough. Thanks for sharing the Info on Johnny, curious to hear the backstory!
@@AltSpace That was great. It took me 5 times to understand half of what u did And every time i hear it again i find new things. This is what i love in NF. I wont say it goes better cause i love all of his music but i would say you will get more surprised and more amazed
I really like that you brought up the fear being very scary and creepy. Because I never really thought about it as a dark entity. I just thought it was a part of him that affected most of his life. Now I feel as though fear is no different from a ghost that comes from within NF practically haunting him. And I just never thought about it that way
Dude!!!! Your face at that moment it hit you... your eyes going back and forth as your brain was putting puzzle together... absolutely EPIC reaction!!! I literally jumped out of my chair and shouted YES! I look for that type of reaction when pieces of NF's songs are put together. That's how I know you're really into the journey. ❤🔥💯
Dude! Hands down the best reaction for Intro III ever. Loved seeing the big reveal of “fear” being the focus of this song. And then to further expound and tie all the things fear has been tied through all of NF’s songs. Keep it going! 😎👍🏾
Bro! I lost it when you guessed that it was the personification of fear midway into the track! And then bonus points for quoting bars from Mansion to back it up. You are a certified bona fide NF fan my man! 🔥🔥🔥
It's so refreshing to hear your thoughts on the journey, about how all of NF's songs connect and paint a story of his mind and life. I SO appreciate your attention to detail in every song and how you can relate back to songs you have listened to earlier in his discography. I'd like to make a recommendation for you to listen to Twenty One Pilots. I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned them or if you have already touched on their music. It is a little outside of the hip-hop sphere, but Tyler (the lead singer) does rap in a lot of songs. They also continue on a huge storyline throughout all of their music with a character (who Tyler personifies as his insecurities) and eventually expand into a whole world where Tyler, Josh, and the Skeleton Clique can go to escape their demons. All the love xxxx
You nailed the whole hidden and the story itself, i love how much you can really understand NF's masterpieces, especially this, thank you for this reaction❤️🥺
💯 spot on. This is my favorite song of all time. And his fear is in reference to his ocd. Which you've probably discovered on leave me alone etc. As a sufferer myself - hr explains it so perfectly. Thanks for actually taking the time to react
Out of all the breakdown/reactions I’ve watched to this track you have the absolute best I’ve seen... never seen ANYONE connect the Intro’s together.... that was an amazing analysis... masterpiece my friend....
This song kicks my emotions in the butt every time. In my humble opinion INTRO III is his most impressive, creative and impactful songs to this day. Teaching people about his battle with fear in the most creative and vivid ways possible. Mindblowing!!!
Bro I seriously love how you explain in detail about what nf raps about. I love nf music but Suddenly his music means so much more to me now. Thank you
Jonny is his mothers boyfriend who abused him when he was younger. However, he mentions him in a couple of his songs, i dont know which one he's talkinkg about on intro 3
it's not his name. Johnny is a worldwide known and used name among kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at the hands of a male parent/guardian, refer to them as.
i think he's speaking from the POV of his fear, so its his fear telling him that he's been with him since he was a kid and wont leave him till he's dead
I can relate to this song and a lot of other nf songs his songs make you think deeper about how you see yourself within his songs make you Wake Up ! and realize you can stay the same or make a Change You don't have to fake it til you make it you can face your fears get rid of old bad habits and just Make It Thanks for your Reaction and keeping it 100
This reaction was the best!! That moment when you realize it's fear! Your mind was blown! And your analysis was so insightful, thorough and intelligent. This is BY FAR the best intro3 reaction I have seen. Outro3 is such a masterpiece, isn't it. Am enjoying your journey so much!
This is what sets apart NF from every other artist for me. His songs are not just music, every single one is another chapter of his personal story and we are the ones who are trying to understand his feelings.
When you get through the NF journey it's almost like the who thing is engineered. He mentions the idea that it was in the search album. The idea that someone could engineer a career of one story or one idea is what blows my mind and brings me back to watch others go through it.
Yeessssssss my guy clocked it. In mansion when NF says "fear came to my house years ago". What a champion, you're analysis and views on his art is honestly amazing Also Johnny is nfs step dad who used to abuse him- I think Bruh if you liked this kinda style, wait until you hear "nate"
ALSO, when you talked about the reference about the shovel to Intro 2, it also makes sense of it not being him, but being his fear, because he was wrapped up in caution tape in Intro 1. So they all connect.
you really need to react to all i have by NF its one of his most underated songs and barely any reactors have even covered it, it was the first NF song i ever listened to and its what drew me in to his platform and i just wanna see the song get some love
The thing about intro 3 being his best song....it doesn’t hold that weight without first listening to his other albums. On its own yes it’s dope, but when you start realizing what he’s actually talking about and tying it back to his other tracks it’s takes it to multiple dimensions. It’s his best track because of his other music. They cannot be separated. That’s what’s cool.
It's amazing because this song by itself is incredible, and anybody who sits down and really listens to it can realize that. But those who have heard the previous songs and understand the back story get an even closer glimpse into what's going on, sort of a like a hidden easter egg from NF for his loyal fans.
How can anyone dislike this video. Outstanding job man thank you. This song is super deep so thank you for doing your best to catch everything. It takes a couple listens to grasp it
You got it... The second voice is Just Fear.. but fear comes with hate and all those other things.. he has diffrent personality’s for each emotions but some of the emotions are in one personality
WOW Realy wow.. you got it man.. this is a great break-down. I listened to loads of reactions with this song, and you got itthe look on your face was a picture, i have never sen someone more excited when the penny dropped.. great job man.. :)
You nailed this reaction! And yes the way he has been able to connect all albums leading to this song it seems almost as if he knew this song before he did all the others before it. NF is crazy talented.
When you realized it your reaction was awesome! It’s always cool seeing it dawn on people who he’s rapping with! 😎 this is absolute🔥 I wish a proper music video were made. I can imagine so much of it, but there are only low quality fan vids out there.
This is part of the reason why we all (at least just myself) love NF. Not only all the symbolism and double meanings, but the amount of planning he does across his albums. In previous albums he talks about his mom, dad, fear, fame ect. And then he brings it all back in later albums to make you getting dawning realization of how awesome he is.
Seen loads of very good reactions to NF. But the depth you go into & the reaction when something clicks are amazing. I'm officialy hooked. Great song for you to be doing for my introduction to you.
I watch a lot of channels that react to NF, as he is my fav artist. This is the first video I watch in your channel and man you are just awesome, I'd say u r the best of the youtubers I watch thar react to NF, keep it up!
ALTGANG!!! Love you guys and appreciate you watching this video. Check out all my NF reactions here:
ruclips.net/p/PLeuY6TQfMQrQFHo-GeePF-K1eIFJFmXka
Done up to date you are better than others who react to nate!
Watching your videos direct when you put them out, even rewatch them. 🙃 Really good work! 👏
Dude! You're on point with these connections. IT'S IMPRESSIVE isn't it? Glad you're enjoying it.
NF is talking to the darker side of himself
I shared the progression of the “script” in the comments... where I think fear is speaking and where NF comes in. Great reaction Altspace! That was all of us haha
From this point on every NF song is a masterpiece. Just wait until you hear outcast and the search.
Thats straight facts
No hate but they are all works of art actually _
And only, returns, why, leave me alone, change, my stress, when I grow up , no excuses. Basically the whole damn album is 🔥🔥❤️❤️
Yess. Outcast or when I grow up
@@CabBlaze420 yes. I agree completely
The moment you clicked it was Fear - I literally couldn't stop smiling/laughing. It only gets better from here fam!
Haha! I wish I could experience this exact moment again
@@AltSpace I think Jonny is the man who abused him in mansion “took me to the basement and beat me till I screamed and cried” “wish I was burying anger but I’ll need him for that song he still LIVES in the basement “
I wanted to check the comments before adding one similar to this because when I saw his entire face light up I was like, light bulb! He figured it out!
@@johnsteed9282 right! haha - I miss AltSpace!
NF’s got his own cinematic universe.
The NCU - NF Cinematic Universe
Fear would 100% be Thanos
@@LuciusMeyers it would have been NFCU but that's trademarked to a bank heh.
@@zdalling7217 Dang, is it?
Every time I describe his music videos I compare them to Marvel movies
'Johnny' was his mothers boyfriend however, it's not his name.
Johnny is a worldwide known and used name among kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at the hands of a male parent/guardian, refer to them as.
Thanks I didn’t know that before 🙏🏽

Johnny is not his name. Johnny is a worldwide known name for a male parent/guardian that kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at their hand by, refer to them as.
@@FullMetalcoreJojo thanks for sharing, brother. I wasn’t aware of this.
@@FullMetalcoreJojo interesting, I had not known this. Thank you.
When you caught on to fear, they took me back to when I first heard the album
Also fear is in every album, not just the songs
I agree, I did the same thing!
This one is next level. Lost can't get here fast enough. Even saying that, don't cheat the journey, take your time and enjoy the ride. Also, What the actual F@#k is an appropriate reaction.
Dude, I'm still in awe of this track, unbelievable storytelling
@@AltSpace listen again and pay attention to the production. It's like a 22oz steak, sometimes you have to take a rest and come back later to finish all the goodness.
@@fritoboat13 love this analogy!!🙌
When you got “fear” i got goosebumps. Killer honest reaction.
Thank you so much, I got there eventually haha!
NF has created such a masterpiece. Its truly one of a kind. True artistry
Me too!!
Here’s what I believe the script to this song is for anyone wondering how the dialogue works.
FEAR:
What, are you scared of me? It's embarrassing...
If it wasn't for me, you would've never wrote Therapy...
I've been here for you, but how come you're never there for me?
It's a little bit twisted, but I miss when you and I had scary dreams...
NF:
I don't really wanna talk about it...
FEAR:
-Well, that's too bad now, Nate. shut up!
Now where were we?
Way back in the day when
You and I had it all mapped out in the basement
Cryin' in your room like a baby
"I wish mom was here"
We all do so we wouldn't have to hear about it
Every single record you don't really wanna change me
Yeah, I'm the one that made this happen
Do you really wanna get rid of your main attraction?
Let's pack our bags and go back to Gladwin now
Yeah, it's time for the third record
And you know I got the content
I don't wanna make you nervous
But it ain't like it used to be
We got a lotta people watchin'
You told me that you don't want me in your life
That's pretty hard to digest
And I told you I'd leave when we die, and we ain't died yet
Therapy Session was beautiful, Nate, but I'm wonderin' what's comin' next
Yeah, get that stupid hat off of your head when I'm talkin' to you, you hear what I said?
You don't like the prison I been with you?
Yeah, you wanna know what the funny thing is?
You keep on talkin' to me like a stranger, but we've been together since you were a kid
Took us from a no-name
Told you everything was okay
Now you tryna cut me out of it like I ain't never been a part of it
I am the heart of it, I made this whole thing
Yeah, I put us on the dope stage
You must have no brain
What's the point of having guns if you can't aim?
What's the point of having blood with no vein?
What's the point of having love with no pain?
What I'm sayin' is me without you doesn't make any sense
I know I'm intense in controlling, but you need to learn how to cope with it
That's just the way that it is
If you didn't want me to live in your house, you shouldn't have let me move in
It's comfortable here and I like it, I got my own room and everything
It don't get better than this!
You say you wanna own your life, then wake up and take your own advice
You just mad 'cause you know I'm right
Yeah, I'm flattered you put me in Mansion, but you should've told 'em right
'Bout your hands on the coldest nights
You didn't tell 'em 'bout the times you and I used to hold the mic
I mean, what are you, outta your mind?
'Cause both of us will be
Come on, let's go outside!
NF:
Is this what you wanted?
Both of us out in the open? Let's do it then
I mean, why are you doin' this?
I know that you're mad, but I'm not in the mood for this
We got a record to drop
So why you actin' like I'm not a part of it?
And where is my shovel at?
Prolly out back where it always is,
FEAR:
you can't get rid of all of me!
I'm the reason why-
NF:
Nah, shut up, I don't wanna hear another sentence
FEAR (desperate):
Hey, I'm NF, is it me or the fear talkin'? Ha! What a dumb question!
Yeah, it's real music 'til the day we die, right!?
Yeah, ain't that the slogan, Nathan!?
NF:
Thought I told you to keep your mouth shut
FEAR:
I mean, so what? You know I never listen!
...
Let me guess
We gon' dig a hole, kill the track, and prolly put a beat in it
Rap about it for like three minutes
Aye, that's pretty deep, isn't it?
...
Wait a minute, you don't really think for a second that you're puttin' me in this?
NF:
No, of course not, just a lil' deeper then we can go inside and we can stop diggin'
FEAR:
Woo!
You had me scared for a second, I though we were diggin' my grave
*boss smack upside the head with shovel*
NF:
We did, what, you don't bein' afraid?
Here’s a dose of your own medicine
What, you don't like how it tastes?
My therapist told me don't bury my issues, but I'ma be honest, man I'm feelin' great!
I think it's only right we go back to where you were created
I wrote a song for Jonny without you, but he ain't gon' like it, let's see how he takes it
He prolly don't even remember us, does he?
I wish I was buryin' anger, but both of us know I'ma need him for that song
He still lives in the basement
Honestly, I shoulda done this a year ago
I don't know why I waited
You know how I get it, I put everything off of my personal life, you hear what I'm sayin'?
That was a joke
Yeah, it's hilarious, ain't it?
You'll spend the rest of your life in my backyard or back of my mind, depends how you see it
Put the shovel away, time to go back in the house now, you'll be out in a week
Tellin' me you want your room back, that's funny, what, you ain't got nowhere to sleep?
I'ma just look out the window and laugh at you, this is crazy to me
'Cause I thought you had me in prison this whole time, but I'm the one holdin' the keys
Honestly you’re a king, I already knew the difference the amount of time you put into this for those who don’t, king status
The only thing I’d probably argue is the shovel part. I think NF is asking where it is… otherwise respect for the amount of work you put in
Being a literature student myself, I really enjoy how you relate literay devices and techniques.
The best reaction, to this song, without any doubt.
Thank you! I really appreciate the kind words, I'm putting my degree to use somehow 😂
The “what’s the point of having love with no pain” line is also a shout out to his “If You Want Love” track later in the Perception album.
That's DOPE!
The analysis is on point once again. Love your reactions
Thank you for tuning in!
@4:20 BEST (and probably fastest) realization about who he’s taking to. Loving your NF reactions! New sub
Dude, I've watched so many people react to this song and you are the FIRST to actually get it.... Awesome reaction bro!
Thank you so much, I massively appreciate the support 🙏
Thank u so much for not asking who was rapping and figured out that was fear, I got excited seeing your reaction. NF JOURNEY IS CRAZY so just put your sit belt everytime you press play and be ready to let NF become your favorite rapper.
This masterpiece gives me chills. Every. Single. Time.
He finally did this reaction
Worth the wait for sure!

17:14 NF said that from a storytelling perspective, Nate then Intro III then How Could You Leave Us as his top three songs he as an artist as written. So what this means is you are going to love Nate when you get to that song.
Dude. I love the song Nate. And at the very end when he talks about what he achieved is so dope. Idk why but it pumps me up everytime I hear that part haha
DUDE, nailed it! Keep listening a few more times and you'll notice who is talking at different times. So awesome to see someone appreciate how NF ties everything together. Just wait, bruh, just wait. This is a top 3 favorite but the story goes on
I've heard this song over 50 times and heard a lot of reactors react to it.. never thought about the 3 intro's connecting in the way you described. This is the reason I listen to reactions.. to see different perspectives
Wait till you see "Leave Me Alone" "The Outcast and "The Search"
I've heard the search without context and thought nothing of it exempt from it being a good song
Now I'm scarec whenever I here that song
I’m enjoying how you break down find all the hidden nugget in NF songs
By the way...I never caught that multiple about “crying in your room like a baby” “you don’t really wanna change me” his mom probably was like that...he was more a burden to her than anything.
Love the reaction!!
It's rare to see someone who understands the whole story, thank you very much !!
This song is crazy🔥
He didn't do any other songs with other characters, but one theory says maybe he'll do the anger song because at the end of the Paid my dues video,Nate could be in the basement (where he said there's anger too)
The perception album is where he started using these cinematic sounds and I love them!
Nate said the best experience recording a song was with this song. He said he had goosebumps, his heart was pounding and he was shaking
It's crazy how music can have this effect on him!
Before moving on,I recommend that you go back because you skipped part of the journey. Outro comes first, then Green Lights and then this song. I think it's important to do them if you don't want to miss anything
I can't wait for another video
Much love!
You know, I’ve always wondered what he’s messin with at the end of paid my dues... that could make sense
Yeah, maybe it will but I just don't know what to expect. The theory I have read from other people and it might make sense, but at the same time I don't know, maybe it's also a bit difficult that it will be like this.
And then the word Lost I really don't know what it means
We'll see anyway!
We shall, we shall
And this is why the NF journey is so important! Intro 3 is a brilliant masterpiece and even NF said that this is his favorite piece of work. Your reaction was priceless, one of the best I have seen. I love watching people react to NF just to see their expressions!
Dude, I’m in the middle of a road trip and it’s snowing like mad and I see this video pop up. So I did what any sensible person would do: pulled over to the side of the freeway and played the video! Lol!
Now you’re starting to see the big picture view of NF! I think that’s why the fans love him in my opinion. Outro is the end of this “trilogy.” The Search begins a new trilogy (presumably). Remember, when you watch Outro, please pay special attention to the visuals. They will blow you away just like this video did.
Keep up the great reactions!
Haha this comment is GOLD! I love that you actually did that 😂 please drive safe and have an awesome road trip my man
When u connected it i was so excited! All his damn songs connect and its fucking crazy! No one can do this shit like him
MORE SUBSCRIBERS SHALL ARRIVE, THIS REACTION IS WHAT U CALL RELEVANT AND INTELLIGENT, THIS DUDE USES HIS KNOWLEDGE NOT JUST FULL OF DOG EXPRESSIONS LIKE "AAAWWW" "OOOOOW".
THE BEST ANALYSIS I EVER SLIDED INTO LOOOOOL
Thank you! Hands down one of the nicest comments I've received! So funny you mentioned that I kind of referenced that in a video I just put out! Just reacted to outcast :) thank you so much for watching
two minutes in and this is already my favorite reaction to nf oooof
Perception is his hero's journey and the Search is his dark night of the soul.
Nate is his child inside
Die - Jest is a sick bar. Never thought of that. Good reaction!
bro I appreciate this respect you're giving nf I literally subbed for this
The reaction when realizing it was Fear! - Pure Awesomeness! Best breakdowns and reactions I have seen yet!
Haha I was shocked 😂😂😂
Brother, this is only a taste of what's to come :)))))
"Remember This"
Omg
Insane! I never relised
When it clicked for you I yelled out w/my headphones on in my room "He gets it!" 😂 Much love from South Carolina big dog, its super exciting to see somebody else experience my favorite artist for the first time.
NF is an amazing lyricist I love his bars so much, but it's so great when you see a rapper talking about real things and personal experiences. Your reactions are amazing 👏🏻👏🏻 please keep them up! ♡
FYI Nate dropped the music video “Outro” before the Perception album was released. It was kind of a wrap up of the first two albums and ties into the third album. Great reaction and commentary Brother!
how he talks to his alter egos and that, just amazing the man can tie in lyrics to everything just an incredible mind, honestly im a huge eminem fan but i would rate NF above that, best story teller out there period
I love the moment it all clicked. This is how I felt the first time listening to this as well. So cool how he strings all these songs together and ties everything in. The Outcast video also starts with him in a jail cell holding keys. Dude is next level genius.
This is where the jump happened for NF to me. The building blocks, the lyricism, the creativity were all there and improving. Now, it all blows up. Make sure you listen to Outro before going too far further in the journey. It ties into this...
The growth has been unreal, I'm still going between Mansions and Therapy Session as I really want to sit with those albums (It's also because I have a cool idea for a video once the journey is complete! )
@@AltSpace I'm ready to see the wrap up video for the journey especially since you have to get through The Search to get there. Honestly I would do every single song from that album cause their all so cool in their alown way and I would really like to see your reaction to all of them and if you don't I hope you dont miss a banger of a song from here on out especially in the search album
This is the best breakdown of this song I've ever heard. When it comes to music, there are very few tremendous ARTISTS out there. NF is the greatest ARTIST in music today, maybe of all time. Most people just don't understand!
Probably the best intro3 reaction I have ever watched. Just incredible.
What a great reaction. Loved it already after 4 min 😉 and got even better
This is a masterpiece made by NF!
Thank you so much for watching! This truly is a masterpiece! Are there other songs that I'll encounter that are like this along the journey?
@@AltSpace still watching your video bro. Very good! Gave me more angles. Johnny is the step father that abused NF. Mentioned in Mansion. IMO Just keep on the journey.
There's so many ways to interpret this song, I could probably make another 3 videos on it. I don't think my analysis went deep enough. Thanks for sharing the Info on Johnny, curious to hear the backstory!
@@AltSpace That was great. It took me 5 times to understand half of what u did And every time i hear it again i find new things.
This is what i love in NF.
I wont say it goes better cause i love all of his music but i would say you will get more surprised and more amazed
I really like that you brought up the fear being very scary and creepy. Because I never really thought about it as a dark entity. I just thought it was a part of him that affected most of his life. Now I feel as though fear is no different from a ghost that comes from within NF practically haunting him. And I just never thought about it that way
I appreciate the comment! It really does feel like an entity that he couldn't get a hold
I can’t wait for you to reach The Search album, it’s his best work yet. Hoping in 2021 we get a new album!
Dude!!!! Your face at that moment it hit you... your eyes going back and forth as your brain was putting puzzle together... absolutely EPIC reaction!!! I literally jumped out of my chair and shouted YES!
I look for that type of reaction when pieces of NF's songs are put together. That's how I know you're really into the journey. ❤🔥💯
I love how you analyzed this song! It even gives me new insight on the song.
Dude! Hands down the best reaction for Intro III ever. Loved seeing the big reveal of “fear” being the focus of this song. And then to further expound and tie all the things fear has been tied through all of NF’s songs. Keep it going! 😎👍🏾
Yup, you get it!! I'm rolling with u on the journey now.
My man!
I concur
Bro! I lost it when you guessed that it was the personification of fear midway into the track! And then bonus points for quoting bars from Mansion to back it up. You are a certified bona fide NF fan my man! 🔥🔥🔥
And in into 1 hes says “NF is a monster..I am a villain” could be reference to fear as well! Cool stuff!
HOLY SHI... 😳😳😳 Very nice catch
It's so refreshing to hear your thoughts on the journey, about how all of NF's songs connect and paint a story of his mind and life. I SO appreciate your attention to detail in every song and how you can relate back to songs you have listened to earlier in his discography. I'd like to make a recommendation for you to listen to Twenty One Pilots. I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned them or if you have already touched on their music. It is a little outside of the hip-hop sphere, but Tyler (the lead singer) does rap in a lot of songs. They also continue on a huge storyline throughout all of their music with a character (who Tyler personifies as his insecurities) and eventually expand into a whole world where Tyler, Josh, and the Skeleton Clique can go to escape their demons. All the love xxxx
Thank you so much for tuning in. I have indeed heard of TOP I've reacted to one of their songs, just haven't released it yet 😊
@@AltSpace AHH!! So exciting to hear!
I love how you've framed your scene. It's a very pleasing on the eye setup
the moment you realized he's talking/rapping about fear!! i'm hyped haha let me go listen to perception from beginning to end all over again
You nailed the whole hidden and the story itself, i love how much you can really understand NF's masterpieces, especially this, thank you for this reaction❤️🥺
Man I’m very excited for you to get to the Search. It’s my favorite, you must be ready for it.
💯 spot on. This is my favorite song of all time. And his fear is in reference to his ocd. Which you've probably discovered on leave me alone etc. As a sufferer myself - hr explains it so perfectly. Thanks for actually taking the time to react
Out of all the breakdown/reactions I’ve watched to this track you have the absolute best I’ve seen... never seen ANYONE connect the Intro’s together.... that was an amazing analysis... masterpiece my friend....
I have noticed that all your NF video’s been blowing up that’s how I found this channel big NF fan keep doing your thing.
This song kicks my emotions in the butt every time. In my humble opinion INTRO III is his most impressive, creative and impactful songs to this day. Teaching people about his battle with fear in the most creative and vivid ways possible. Mindblowing!!!
I LOVE how you dissect the whole thing!
Thank you brother, I appreciate the kind words!
Bro I seriously love how you explain in detail about what nf raps about. I love nf music but Suddenly his music means so much more to me now. Thank you
Intro 1,2 and 3 is like a novel in song form, amazing 👏
This makes me want to see you react to all the intros back to back like one big song.
Yo it helps me understand the intro trilogy youre insane, keep delivering
You are probably one of the guy that analyse those NF song the best ✔️ ( After Ernest the third❤️)
He's my favourite, he's 100% the best music analysts on RUclips.
@@AltSpace Mine too but you're my second favorite!
I appreciate the kind words ❤️
Jonny is his mothers boyfriend who abused him when he was younger. However, he mentions him in a couple of his songs, i dont know which one he's talkinkg about on intro 3
it's not his name.
Johnny is a worldwide known and used name among kids that suffered physical/sexual abuse at the hands of a male parent/guardian, refer to them as.
@@FullMetalcoreJojo me reading this and my name is johnny 😭
i think he's speaking from the POV of his fear, so its his fear telling him that he's been with him since he was a kid and wont leave him till he's dead
I can relate to this song and a lot of other nf songs his songs make you think deeper about how you see yourself within his songs make you Wake Up ! and realize you can stay the same or make a Change You don't have to fake it til you make it you can face your fears get rid of old bad habits and just Make It Thanks for your Reaction and keeping it 100
That's absolute FACTS you just dropped there 🔥 also thank you for watching
when you got it I was cheering out loud! Great one!
So excited for you to react to outro
Me too!
This reaction was the best!! That moment when you realize it's fear! Your mind was blown! And your analysis was so insightful, thorough and intelligent. This is BY FAR the best intro3 reaction I have seen. Outro3 is such a masterpiece, isn't it. Am enjoying your journey so much!
I've watched several Intro III reactions and this is up there. Nice breakdown and analysis 👏🏾👏🏾.
This is what sets apart NF from every other artist for me. His songs are not just music, every single one is another chapter of his personal story and we are the ones who are trying to understand his feelings.
When you get through the NF journey it's almost like the who thing is engineered. He mentions the idea that it was in the search album. The idea that someone could engineer a career of one story or one idea is what blows my mind and brings me back to watch others go through it.
Seriously an amazing song. He is a lyrical genius. All time favorite lyricist.
Yeessssssss my guy clocked it. In mansion when NF says "fear came to my house years ago". What a champion, you're analysis and views on his art is honestly amazing
Also Johnny is nfs step dad who used to abuse him- I think
Bruh if you liked this kinda style, wait until you hear "nate"
Your interpretation on his music is spot on man your on it thanks man keep me coming NF for life he can't be beat just like your reactions
Thank you my man I appreciate the kind words! That really means a lot
ALSO, when you talked about the reference about the shovel to Intro 2, it also makes sense of it not being him, but being his fear, because he was wrapped up in caution tape in Intro 1. So they all connect.
you really need to react to all i have by NF its one of his most underated songs and barely any reactors have even covered it, it was the first NF song i ever listened to and its what drew me in to his platform and i just wanna see the song get some love
The thing about intro 3 being his best song....it doesn’t hold that weight without first listening to his other albums. On its own yes it’s dope, but when you start realizing what he’s actually talking about and tying it back to his other tracks it’s takes it to multiple dimensions. It’s his best track because of his other music. They cannot be separated. That’s what’s cool.
FINALLYYYYYYY bout to get my popcorn
That Michael Jackson Thriller meme springs to mind 😂
It's amazing because this song by itself is incredible, and anybody who sits down and really listens to it can realize that. But those who have heard the previous songs and understand the back story get an even closer glimpse into what's going on, sort of a like a hidden easter egg from NF for his loyal fans.
How can anyone dislike this video. Outstanding job man thank you. This song is super deep so thank you for doing your best to catch everything. It takes a couple listens to grasp it
Yesssss finally this is 100% my favorite track by nf
You got it... The second voice is Just Fear.. but fear comes with hate and all those other things.. he has diffrent personality’s for each emotions but some of the emotions are in one personality
WOW Realy wow.. you got it man.. this is a great break-down. I listened to loads of reactions with this song, and you got itthe look on your face was a picture, i have never sen someone more excited when the penny dropped.. great job man.. :)
Haha the penny finally dropped! Thank you so much for tuning in
You nailed this reaction! And yes the way he has been able to connect all albums leading to this song it seems almost as if he knew this song before he did all the others before it. NF is crazy talented.
Thank you so much! He's unbelievably talented
Best reaction to this Song! Keep up the great work man
Thank you my brother 🙏❤️
When you realized it your reaction was awesome! It’s always cool seeing it dawn on people who he’s rapping with! 😎 this is absolute🔥 I wish a proper music video were made. I can imagine so much of it, but there are only low quality fan vids out there.
This is part of the reason why we all (at least just myself) love NF. Not only all the symbolism and double meanings, but the amount of planning he does across his albums. In previous albums he talks about his mom, dad, fear, fame ect. And then he brings it all back in later albums to make you getting dawning realization of how awesome he is.
Seen loads of very good reactions to NF. But the depth you go into & the reaction when something clicks are amazing. I'm officialy hooked. Great song for you to be doing for my introduction to you.
Absolutely love the analysis of the song. I'm new to NF this year and this is one of the best song breakdowns I've seen. Good work!
His song Nate in the search album is very inclusive on telling everything that has happened during his rap career can wait for that one
Yep.... can’t wait til he gets to that one too..... gonna be a fun one...
Wonderful analysis. Please continue your hard work !
Thank you! ❤️
I watch a lot of channels that react to NF, as he is my fav artist. This is the first video I watch in your channel and man you are just awesome, I'd say u r the best of the youtubers I watch thar react to NF, keep it up!
I appreciate that brother! I hope you're keeping well and safe 🙏
Holy Snap! All of NF's music is literally a movie.
I think you have the best analysis of NFs lyrics on youtube. keep it up i really enjoy hearing the brainstorm.
