The moment of pride I felt when you caught the exlax line.
Just saw it and came here to comment. Literally made me spit my drink.
Our boy is growing!
I got excited when I realized he caught the double on the first try 🥲 they learn so fast 🤗
Was waiting 4 the spiderman line
😂😂😂
Eminem helped Ed with his stutter when he was a kid, Ed's dad bought him the MMLP and he memorized it. Fun fact :)
Damn, ive been a life long stan and i never knew that!
True story. Poor Ed had a procedure to remove a birth mark when he was little and the trauma of the experience left him with a stutter. Em’s work helped him work through it. It’s so cool to see this connection lead to what we have today.
@@uncle_rick333 Ed used one of his earliest award acceptance speeches to mention it
@@uncle_rick333 why would you? You’re a Stan to em, not Ed.
I did not know THAT!!!!
I love that line by Em "She's been on the Web lately. Maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man (to Spider-Man)"
Web, Gwen Stacy, Spider-Man lol Gwen is Spider-Man's first love who died when he tried to catch her from falling with his web.
I always love it when my favorite superhero gets referenced by my favorite artist haha
Despite her man…Spider-Man…love it!
He doesn’t just do double and triple entendres, he does a whole scheme and it’s brilliant .. this one works but I admit sometimes it doesn’t ..there are times where Em had bad lines
I was shouting at the phone spider man haha! Hoping he would catch it but he's getting better and better
“This love triangle left us in a wreck tangled” favourite like in the whole song.. sooooo good
The fact that it is also a rectangle because of the unborn child is a nice double
I never know what I'm going to get with Ed Sheeran, but it's always beautiful. I'm not a fan of Eminem at all, but when I came across this a few months back, the dichotomy of these two singers and their styles of music...well, I had to listen. And I actually liked it! Thanks for the reaction!
Not a stan?? U must not like rap
I love Em and Ed! Ed always puts out beautiful music. Em has been putting out honest and even heart wrenching songs but still lyrical masterpieces. His songs that are basically duets are so good like “walk on water” and “love the way you lie” “revenge” with Pink (one of my absolute favorite artists and humans) all those collaborations create such deep, layered songs with really interesting chorus meets rap stuff. Hope you check out more. Also Ed sheeran with Andrea Bocelli on “Perfect”….gorgeous!
@@abarrazarios cry
@@schavez5656 ain't bout crying nigga, he's talking facts it ain't bout stan but if you love hip-hop and the art of Emceeing how can you not be a fan of Marshall if not fan then you must respect him, it's pure simple,but for sure you can cry somewhere else.
Em and Ed are actually really good friends. They have several songs together. If you haven't had heard them I'd look into it.
It’s fictional but a powerful story and you’re right, playing these games just ends up hurting ourselves, others and in this fictional story, it also hurts an unborn child.
Like it's crazy this song wasn't more loved. I consider it basically like another Stan story almost. Because that's basically what it is. A situation that can happen in real life, with very bad outcomes, told over a soulful chorus and pounding beat
I thought that it wasn't fictional
Ed Sheeran has a song called 'Small Bump' where it's about miscarriage (True story about one of his friends) and I feel River was about having the choice, and Small Bump is about not having the choice. Especially when Eminem goes 'I really would've loved your smile' and Ed's song he goes something like 'with a smile like hers'. I feel they touched on Ed's song in this. My opinion anyway
Makes ya wonder how em would have done in films if he didnt have that bad experience with 8 mile. Hes pretty good at it.
Fact!
What do you mean he had a bad experience. I thought it was just a one time acting gig?
What bad experience?
Bad experience?
@@SpeckszDaBoss Em had the 8mile movie, the soundtrack and his album all going on at the same time, that was when his addiction to sleeping pills kicked in as he was only getting 2-3 hours sleep each night and straight back to the set and writing a lot of songs on set left him burnt out with his addiction.
Thank you for sharing that memory of your dad. It sounds like a bad one that you've made the best of. It's nice to learn more about you and now I can understand why you connect with Eminem a bit more! All the love :)
Thanks Miranda!
Every time Eds bit comes up it's more impactful as we learn more and more of the context of the story through Ems bits. What a masterpiece.
My two favourite artists for sure. Story tellers. You can see Ems influence in Ed.
Ed and Em are good friends because of, all things, comic books!!! Those two make some really great songs.
4:06 I think Em meant “highlight reel” as in sports. He’s saying his life wasn’t exactly filled with a bunch of good things or good actions.
I recommend "Stronger than I was " by Eminem. It's an underrated song and I think you will enjoy it.
Yes yes
It’s not a real story. As you’ve seen recently Em, is a pretty great actor! They both have great ability to emote with their lyrics and storytelling 🙂
@@GhostWatcher2024 the thing is its not "just fiction" this kind of stuff happens all the time. maybe Eminem really went thru this exact thing it wouldnt really surprise me. but yeah the footage is fiction
@@loveinlatin I don’t understand what your trying to get at?
@@blackfairyxdusy He is saying that maybe this happened to em in real life of course the videos where just them acting but maybe the story he is telling is real. Similar situation happened to em in the early 00’S when Kim had an affair with another guy and had Whitney whom Eminem adopted later on because her real father didn’t want anything to do with her
@@marviktor2255 Yeah… thanks for sharing unrelated and common knowledge I guess 🤷♀️
@@blackfairyxdusy what I’m legit so confused you didn’t get what ilovepeepxxx was saying so I told you
they have two more songs together :) "Remember the Name" which was on Ed's album and "Those Kinda Nights" which was on Marshall's latest LP. I promise you won't regret :) thank you for your reaction!
Those kinda nights is on music to be murdered by.
@@damianhills1533 and that is Eminem's latest album as of today
@@damianhills1533 exactly what he said lol
He was side b so it’s no the latest as it’s on side a lol
@@rapidglassglazingltd7559 dude side b is deluxe edition to side a so that's the one album
I couldn’t wait to see this reaction! I think I started watching it 3 minutes after it posted. 😂 Yeah, the two artists don’t seem like they would go together, but it’s a great combo! And I love how the video was filmed - there are some gorgeous, cinematic shots in it.
Footage is not real - just very good and convincing acting. From everything I understand, it’s not based on a true story from Ed or Em. I think the two had discussed doing a song together just based on the concept of a toxic relationship (the video was released on Valentine’s Day just for the irony). Ed wrote/recorded his part, sent it to Em, and then didn’t hear anything back for roughly a year, and assumed Em had just changed his mind. But then out of nowhere, Em sent the finished track back. 😂 I mean, Em has aired plenty of his laundry over the years, so it’s not out of the realm of possibility that this could be based on a real personal situation, but I personally highly doubt it. He’s adopted/raised multiple kids that aren’t his - his younger half brother Nathan, Alaina, Whitney - and some of that transpired before he hit it big. That kind of paternal responsibility for kids that aren’t even biologically his just doesn’t seem to equate with the actions of the person within the song. 🤷♀️ I think it’s just really good storytelling, like “Stan.”
I laughed and was so proud when you caught the “ex lacks”/Ex-lax double. Em also has a sneaky Spider-Man scheme in there. But my personal favorite line is “This love triangle left us in a wreck, tangled (rectangle).” I also just love the poetry of “Why do I do this dirt that I do? Get on my soapbox and preach my sermon and speech. Detergent and bleach is burning the wound.” He is a modern day Shakespeare.
Interesting fact - Ed once suffered from a stutter related to nerve damage from a medical procedure. As a kid, he adored Eminem, and credits rapping along to Eminem as helping him overcome his stutter. ☺️ Another interesting side note - there were apparently some rumors about Eminem being “caught” engaging in some sleazy affair when he and this actress were seen going into a hotel, but it was literally just for the filming of this video. He makes a cheeky reference to that in his song “Fall.”
I really appreciate your personal stories that you share with us. You're a brave man.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoy!
Later, when touring with 50 cent in the UK, he asked Ed to make a guest appearance at a concert, which Ed jumped at.
After the concert, Ed went to find Em backstage, he had a song that he wanted to play to Em, and ask if he would feature on it.
He found Em and 50 Cent in one of the rooms, and said to them "Do you guys believe in fate?". Ed had also wanted 50 cent to appear on it, and there he was, right there with Em.
Ed pulled out his guitar and started singing the song he wrote, both Em and 50 wanted in on it. A few months later "Remember the Name" was featured on Eds next album, definitely worth checking.
Edit. Beautiful story about your sister. I'm not a religious person, but if faith can help bring someone back from the brink of destruction, then believe in it as best as you can. It's even better when used as a tool to help others, unfortunately it's also used as a tool to destroy as well, but that's humanity in a nutshell.
Can I just say that this channel is helping me cuz when I feel low I come here for seeking comfort and it helps!!! You're always happy and those little stories in the beginning is making my day. I hope you know that YOU means alot🤍
Awww, thanks so much for your very kind words!
The joy i get from seeing your happiness upon catching doubles makes my day everytime
Your analogy to that sandwich was so spot on. It’s amazing.
"This love TRIANGLE left us in a wreck, tangled.(RECTANGLE)" ....So smooth
I’ve heard this song 50 times and just caught a double I never caught before. “She’ll be my Gwen Stacey to Spider-Man” or “She’ll be my Gwen Stacey to spite her man”. Brilliant.
What a reaction, i chuckled a bit reacting to your reaction. Like a roller coaster of emotions that you went through, and thats why your such an authentic reaction-ist if thats a word. Your a gem man, well done 👍🏼
Thanks DM!!!
@@larryshair no problem, keep on trucking ! 🤘🏻
Awesome reaction sir!! 🥰 “So she's been on the web lately Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man” my favorite line from that song!
You really should react to my dad’s gone crazy by Eminem ft hailie jade I think that you will love it
Crazy incredible!
@@larryshair 100% do I think my dad's done crazy;!!!
One of my favorite Eminem lines ever is: A one-night-stand turned to two nightstands
Two more awesome Eminem collaborations on the theme toxic relationship: "Good Guy" feat. Jessie Reyez, and Jessie Reyez feat. Eminem - Coffin
JUST AMAZING ARTIST. SO MUCH FREKING TALENT.
Now that you’ve watched the Lose Yourself song/video, you’ll really like his song The Monster with the original music video.
There you’ll be able to connect some dots with the amount of songs you’ve listened from him. It’s a great song! And the music videos theme is amazing!
little to soon. Lets wait until he watched a little bit of mmlp an sslp. I think he havent react to none of it yet besides stan. The way i am, the real slim shady, rolemodel etc.
I dont think he'd get the most out of that video yet. LY is the only part of that song/video he's seen thus far.
Everyone sleeps on the double with Gwen Stacy (who is a love interest to Spider-Man) but he's saying she'll be his Gwen Stacy to "spite her man". OMG he's so good
This came out when i was in college. Lovely
Apparantly it is possible to improve from stuttering by learning to rap. I have read about it before and later on i read in an interview with Ed Sheeran that he grew past his stuttering by learning to rap on eminems music. Which is offcourse a great prelude to them working together on music.
When you look more into Em's family life you understand that he can play the "villan" in the piece because he is so comfortable with his own ability as a father. his daughters both natural and adopted legal, legitimate or other He has become a role model for responsible parenting and his "we cant keep this kid" is a triple all on its own. every choice right and wrong hard and painful in one short statement. a child is not a band aid.
I just love your reactions! I myself work with at risk young women. Many suffer with addiction and have been abused. So often the ones who help younger generations have been through similar situations. Thank you for posting these wonderful and thoughtful reactions!
Thanks so much Samantha
Pb&j. What!? 😆. You're such a wonderful trip.
lol, it's yummy! TRUST me!
People are going to be unlocking his complex rhymes schemes, bars, accents, you name it...for a LONG TIME
I’ve said it before but I’m gonna say it again! I think you would really enjoy ‘Going Through Changes - Eminem’. It’s another deep one that tells some of his story ❤️
I'd say "You never Over" same album
@@brandoonf6962 I think Changes and then Over, would work best! ☺️
If you're gonna be listening to more Ed Sheeran "Perfect" is a very beautiful song that I think you'd like
THANKS FOR YOUR SHARE MEANS A LOT BRO.
A bbq restaurant in Vegas called “Smoke and Fire” makes a peanut butter, blueberry jam, jalapeño, 1/2 lbs sirloin burger. Its pretty great.
That sounds great!
What you thought was a typical infidelity story turned into so much more, and you realize the song is truly about the decisions that led to an abortion. The whole song is basically an apology to the unborn child.
I just love how Em sets a story up and takes you on this ride and it seems predictable at first, and then he completely switches the narrative. The second time you listen to this song you have a whole other appreciation for the first two verses and of course the chorus.
Another great reaction! So the exlax bar was a "bar" meaning good wordplay eminem is one of the best at wordplays
Great vid, do 25 to life next!
Yessss
LMAO, Ah man, I was dying when you caught the double of ex and ex-lax. Sounded like Beavis and butthead chuckling. :D
Firstly, thanks for the best Eminem reaction videos, you are great! and secondly, you should definitely check out Em's White Americe, it's one of his masterpieces, seriously underrated..
And to come back to the first:
I've been listening to his music for 20 years and I think it's crazy how well you do it and take the lyrics and him seriously as an artist, honestly I'm thrilled ❤️
Dude every video gets better and better! Keep it up my man!
Em should star in a movie based on this song.. that’s how good the story telling and video is
Haha I love watching him catching and working out the ex lax bar
Wow... Thanks for doing this Chris, I'd forgotten how epic this song was! Eminem and Ed really are that crazy combo that shouldn't go together but really does!
Anyway here I am again asking for Dave - Lesley 😂 I told you I will keep going until i see the reaction haha!
I want to entice you in but don't want to tell you too much... Dave is a genuine genius! He produces all his own music and plays a number of instruments! His lyrics are powerful and thoughtful and honestly you will not regret getting on the Dave train!
Greetings from sweden. Keep up the amazing videos bro
Was lucky enough to see the only live version of this performed at Twickenham Stadium in 2018 during the Revival Tour :D
Yes sir...you caught the double exlax...LOL
But missed the “despite her man” (sounded like/was supposed to sound like Spider-Man). Don’t feel bad. You can listen to his songs 50 times before you catch all the little details! 🤯
😆papa Chris was lecturing us about the bees. Yes boys and girls. Keep it in your pants or rubbers if you're not ready for consequences! lol another great reaction!
lol, thanks son!
"Maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spiderman (spite her man)"
"This love triangle left us in a wreck tangled (rectangled)"
Yay!! Really wanted this one from you!
It sounds like Em says: "By Shoshanne" when he says: "By Susanne" which makes me think if it's nodded towards the Tarantino line : "Au revoir Shoshanna"
Your Mother must be so proud of you and your sister! So proud of the wonderful people you've becomr
Sorry...you've become!!!
Thanks so much! I'm so very proud of HER!
Hello Chris, the special thing about this music video is that it was released on 14th February 2018, which you know is valentine's day. Its like Em wanted us to realize the dark side of relationships, and Em's a great actor, you know. This song is a certified platinum
And one more thing, I can guarantee you that you will not find any bad or boring or irrelevant Eminem song, since you give more preference to lyrics. Em is great, if rap is religion, Eminem is the GOD
That sandwich description - I feel personally attacked.
lol, not until you eat one!
@@larryshair I had garlic ice cream in Gilroy and I think that’s when I stopped getting curious 😂 love your content tho ♥️
What a beautiful collaboration ♥️
Thank you for the reaction.
Ed Sheeran - Remember The Name Ft. Eminem and 50 Cent good song too
Billboard's website has an extensive article decoding this song and detailing how it was made. It's really fascinating!
All just a beautiful and masterfully written story, again..
This love triangle
Left us in a wreck, tangled (rectangle)
At 17:02 the way he just looks up and down at her always makes me laugh for some reason 🤣
Good video awesome song great show
Defo need a not afraid reaction about his sobriety on battling drugs and how he is no longer afraid of breaking sobriety thats what i got from it anyways but its probably his most popular sitting at 1.7B views defo give that a watch
You should check out the other songs Eminem has done with Ed Sheeran, as well as the songs with other artists that, at the time, people didn't really see coming (collaboration-wise):
Beyonce
P!nk
Rihanna
Alicia Keys
Gwen Stefani
Not all of them have videos tho
This song just surpassed 700 million streams!
That's crazy!
Hi, would love to see you react to the Eminem/MGK beef, it's
Eminem - Not Alike
MGK - Rap Devil (a shot at 'Rap God')
Eminem - Killshot
Note: listen to them in that order
+ for fun, when listening to Killshot, remember that Eminem wrote the song in traffic in under 14 minutes
I would like to see this too. Agree it must be done in order lol. Killshot has 8 mile vibes.
Where did u get the killshot Info from?
Yessss!
Agreed!! Em absolutely murdered him. It’s so funny 😂😂
should also include mgk feature on tech9 track
You didn't seem to notice, but in the lines below, he is actually talking about Spider-man's girlfriend, Gwen Stacy, who dies in the comics due to Spider-man's lack of experience with hanging/saving people on his web. When knowing this backstory, the "to spite her man," automatically becomes "spider-man." It's amazing.
"Knife in hand, says their relationship's
hangin' by a strand
So she's been on the web lately
Says maybe she'll be my Gwen Stacy, to spite her man"
DANG!!
THANK YOU
The gwen stacy to spite her man is so good, i thought for years because ididn't read the lyrics that he said be my gwen stacy to spider-man but he meant for it to sound like he said that, em is crazy with these, he has another one i didn't catxh for a long time and thats when he has the whole skeem about dogs barking and him being a dog thats i a bar- king bark bark i rhink its alfreds theme but i'm not sure
Good lyrics keeps the vibe buh great lyrics will always pull a story in each n everyone of us🔥🔥
Thanks for sharing that story 🔥
Thanks for your reactions🔥
#respect
Great reaction to a great song! Thanks for uploading ❤️❤️
I see your comments in every good em reactor.
Sometimes makes me think you are em's ghost account.
@@someordinarystan2692 then that makes me a ghost account for em too?
@@bigbeast5981 Maybe you are, maybe I am
Hi loving your reactions, just got to say you were right on the edge of catching a great usage of wordplay, you kept rewinding the song to the same place I honestly think your brain was trying to figure it out but you just couldn’t catch it, the line was …she was my Gwen Stacy in spite her man (Spider-Man) arrrrgh I was rooting you on to catch it lol ❤️🇬🇧
Killed me missing that Gwen Stacy "to Spiderman" vs "to spite her man".
The look on your face when you see the pregnancy test was priceless!!! I did the same thing! Deep song!!
Going to play this with them live in Milwaukee at one of The River’s in Milwaukee July 19th, 2023!
Wow
Dagwood sandwich! Lol I taught my kids to experiment with food. PB & cheese, PB & potato chips..lol. My kids took it to new levels! Lol This was for the video! lol Dude! The look on your face! 😂🤣😂 Eminem is a good actor! He could have gone on to do movies! He's been asked more than once but his love is for Hip Hop!
peanut butter-jelly-chicken-tuna sandwich..."Rainman" Eminem
Love to see you do Eminem ft Ed Sheeran "Those Kinda Nights" such a funny track with a bouncing beat and multiple entendres
Again a great Reaction! Still waiting for Rock Bottom (1999, written 1996/7) and please react to the Videos of My Name Is (99, first Hit Single) and The Way I Am (00, big Hit from his Third Album)
You got to check out remember the name by Ed Sheeran Eminem and 50 Cent.
Loving it all the way from Australia ! Please react to the hills remix with Eminem and weekend or best friend with yellawolf and Eminem , right up ur lane . 🇦🇺
Triangle, wreck tangled (rectangle) also a good one.
I know you have plenty of songs to check out and listen to, but I think you would really enjoy Coffin by Jessie Reyez featuring Eminem. Her voice is beautiful, and it is a heartfelt story about true love that happens to be toxic.
Agreed
facts
I have a feeling that Ed’s part in this song, is him speaking to the unborn child; a voice for the unborn child.
I think you should check out a couple of songs from the artist macklemore as well (specifically “otherside” and “Glorious”) hes another rapper with very meaningful lyrics
If you want to hear more Ed Sheeran and rap you should definitely react to “Remember the Name” by Ed sheeran ft Eminem and 50 cent! Nice mellow rap track
massive respect for your sister.
"Remember The Name" by Ed Sheeran ft Eminem and fifty cent is another fun song that's well worth a listen too
Love the content!
Thanks so much!
Yeah do "You never Over" it's his tribute to Proof. Today is the day he passed.
It’s just for the video. But maybe the picture painted is real.
This is “larryshair” reaction video. I think it’s important to bring to the table your personal life views. It is what makes your channel very valuable with content discussion. A real thought provoking insight. Honesty. Looking at other reactors they have a very different flavor. IMHO if you were not such a transparent guy you wouldn’t have the following you do. You can be encouraging in the face of very difficult life choices portrayed in many of the videos you react to which may help out a subscriber. You did stop to comment often for this video but necessary here with so much happening. Sometimes songs are going to need that. It’s the nature of storytelling through music. Seems all good to me. 👍🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words. Truly!
@ 8:00 minutes , I've heard this sound a thousand times and never caught that double. Great catch ( likely because I'm from the UK so i had to Google ex lax )
lol, nice!
Also fun fact Ed Sheeran was inspired Eminem he used to have a speech impediment and Eminems album taught Ed how to articulate his words
