    Just so you know, Jonathan was molested as a kid, and that theme comes up in a fair few of their songs. When he tried to tell his family what happened they didn’t believe him, which was obviously traumatizing as well. He wrote the song “Daddy” about the female family friend who abused him, but it’s a tough one to listen to.

    I always felt that the symbolism of the bullet missing the girl and missing all the people on it's way to the KoRn poster was to show; that some people, who are really struggling and maybe coming close to self harm in some way, can use music as an emotional outlet. Once the bullet reaches the band, they aren't scared of it and the band get it to return from where it came from, meaning that music can take painful emotions and get them to subside to some degree. I also like the visual of multiple bullet holes with the light shining through in the room they are jamming in because that tells me that bullets blasting into that room happens all the time. Maybe that symbolizes a multitude of people that use music as therapy of some sort. They then send the bullet back to where it came from and the little girl (whom the bullet was originally "meant" for), is no longer affected by it and is able to grab it and return it back to where I came from. Could be a reach, but that's what I always thought when I saw the video.

      I watched a video of a therapist reacting to this, and she thought that Jonathan's scatting was a way of creating something that couldn't be fully comprehended, and thus could not be "taken from me(him)" - that creating music and something unique is a way to empower yourself, to be free, especially against others that try to take from you. I really liked that take on it and your thoughts of using music as an emotional outlet is related

    A lot of the lyrics in this song actually have to do with his childhood. As a kid, he was sexually abused by his babysitter, so lines like
    "Something's raped and taken from me"
    "A cheap f**k for me to lay"
    and even
    "Nothing in my life is free" (going into the pain he suffered)
    are all references to his pain and how he felt as a kid. Just like his song 'Daddy' on their debut album is.

    One of the most impressive things about this music video is the fact that it was made in 99 because CGI really wasn’t that great back then, but they still managed to pull this off. I’ve been a big fan of Korn for many years and it’s always neat to see how someone reacts to hearing them for the first time. There’s a lot of depth to their lyrics, especially when you learn about what Jonathan has gone through in his life. Keep up the great work though, Knox. I hope you and yours are well!

      The track finds Jonathan Davis' slating the exploitive music industry:
      "That's my song that rails out against the music industry. It's about how I feel like I'm a f---in' prostitute. Like I'm this freak paraded around, but I got corporate America f---in' making all the money while it's taking a part of me. It's like they stole something from me-they stole my innocence and I'm not calm anymore. I worry constantly. I'm not just talkin' about the record business. Everything's involved. I've lost something. I'm not all there anymore. I love what I do, but I wish I could have it all back. It's like the 'Peter Pan syndrome.' I wish I could still fly."

    This song does have a great meaning. If i'm not mistaken, he is talking about the expectations people chain him with.

The room they are in is their way of saying that the comments directed at them doesn't effect them at all.

Lately it's been a bit of a head-shaker as my 20-year old sends me links for Black Flag and a note, "Sounds like something you'd be into", not realizing I was into them... in 1980. 😀 Watching and hearing your reaction to Korn is kinda like that, and it makes me smile when I get to see another generation carry the good stuff forward. Freak On A Leash is tied for my favorite by the band along with Twisted Transistor. As a rapper, you might enjoy "All In The Family" which is a foul-yet-funny, 4+ minute battle between Jon Davis and Fred Durst. It's pretty profane, so may not meet RUclips guidelines, but ya gotta listen!

    David Silveria's drums on this track are incredible! One thing people tend to miss out on is if the little girl wasn't a cartoon, she wouldn't have been able to stop the bullet.
    Also, at the end the No Trespassing sign is the link that transitions between the Freak on a Leash video and the Falling Away from Me video.

    Bro I jus wanna say that I love your videos and your break downs of the songs and bars and literally everything. I can’t remember if you’ve reacted to this band yet or not, but if you haven’t you should definitely react to Three Days Grace. They are one of my all time favorite bands. They are soo good.

    I remember as a teen I would get almost in an ecstasy listening to KoRn on high volume, add in alcohol the buzz was real. We were a bunch of metal freaks and would always blast that shit at parties, even when other people didn't really fuck with it, we kind of made it cool. Other stuff was Slipknot, Dimmu Borgir, Rammstein..

  • @stormfistz926
    @stormfistz926 Год назад +3

    Knox you definitely need to do some Sabaton. They are a Swedish metal band that do songs around historical people and battles ranging from the 30 year war to ww1 ww2. Every song is a history lesson. Just a few to react to are No Bullets Fly " animated version", Christmas Truce official video, Red Baron animated, Carolus Rex, En Livstid I Krieg " live from Gothenburg "

  • @geoffzeiger8296

    The thing that always blows me away by your reactions is how you catch so much. I've listened to this since it came out when I was in high school and I've never caught the meaning of the lyrics like you did the very first time you heard it. 🤯

    I feel like you were spot on! Even though you have been through so much, it proves that you can change the course of your life! Like the bullet, even though it was so close to hitting you and could mess up your life you were able to change the course of your life and take a different path. I love korn and they speak a lot of truth and it depends on how you interpret their lyrics. But I feel like you had an awesome insight about it!

  • @nzstump0152
    @nzstump0152 Год назад +1

    Johnathan Davis the lead singer of Korn was abused as a child and it lead to a lot of his songs, hence the line, " raped and taken from me", voicing his inner demons, the Korn song Daddy, delves into his abuse and is one of the most powerful song ever
    also I believe the red dressed girl, is similar to the red dressed girl in the movie schindlers list, who was seen as innocence and innocence lost

  • @deadfall8475

    Been a fan of your bar breakdowns for a while man, glad you're diving into metal. I'm still gonna recommend the greatest (imo) metal band of all time Nightwish. Start with romanticide, then Gabriel will arrive to guide you the rest of the way. Keep it up bro. Btw, your stuff is pretty fire too, just added you to my spotify lists.

    Please react to Jinjer - Pisces (Live version w/ all the views)
    Any Lorna Shore
    August Burns Red has a new song out right now that would get you some traction in the metal scene. Polyphia also has a new album out now w brilliant tracks. These are just helpful suggestions. :)

  • @bertieblack5639
    @bertieblack5639 Год назад +3

    Korn are an interesting one. Jonathan has a tendency to get fairly dark emotions out in his lyrics. Best example of this is the song Daddy, it's a really harrowing listen but extremely interesting.
    Could we see your take on some Disturbed on a metal Monday, Knox? David (their singer) has a very percussive voice which I think might lend itself to your rap background, I'd really recommend Inside The Fire :)

    Hey Knox, found your channel through your ERB reactions and really appreciate your take on them. Thank you for describing where all the Rap-"strategies" come from and how to use them. That is cool to hear!
    Also, you do well in your takes on metal lyrics. There is so much to discover in the lyrics!
    However, I want to give you one suggestion for metal mondays: Sabaton: Christmas truce. I know, the Christmas time is right around the corner, so this will fit perfectly. And it may just scratch your history itch ;)

I love reaction vids, but this one was just special. I'm so glad you likes this song. I loved watching it through your eyes lol

  • @UltraHalo27
    @UltraHalo27 Год назад

    9:14 the part of the song when they were recording it. It was blank space with the instrumental, so the singer came in and just started making that noise. So they stuck with it, I love how your mind went for the double on it though.

    Just a thought, where Korn is located, the room is backlit through the “poster” and the “bullet holes” from the rooms where the posters exist in the real world. Makes that place and that single bullet have a much deeper and meaningful meaning as well.
