Kool Aid Kids is so much deeper than the title suggests at first glance. I think it's up there with XXI Century Blood as far as powerful, deep meaning lyrics go. "Hey you, Kool-Aid kids, there's a traitor in our midst. Somebody's got a mind of their own" Think for yourself and don't just drink the kool aid being poured for you.
Kool Aid Kids, Z, and Disciple are some of the sharpest social commentary I've ever seen in music. It's really easy to write a protest song but it's a lot more mature to recognize the dangers of radicalism and mob mentality.
While the term "Drink the kool aid" references the Jonestown mass suicide, the phrase has come to mean falling to any group think to your own detriment. I see this song as calling out any form of coercive conformity.
These Ladies exist in another world...the new world of Rock and Roll...so much thanks to these girls for giving me back my Rock and Roll...I missed it!!!!
Fun prediction: TW will achieve massive success as a band, reaching legendary status in the world of Rock. Then, they will go their separate ways, perhaps to start families. Pau will continue with a successful solo career as a singer/composer. Once they are seasoned veterans, they will reunite and tour the world simply for enjoyment! I hope to live many years just as them to witness that! :D
@@AreliMusiK that's alot to digest. As band's member's get older it's harder for a band to be as committed. Family etc. takes some of the priorities. They either breakup or just get together less often. As far as popularity being the best doesn't always mean the most popular. Their popularity has certainly grown alot. But I don't know where it will end up. Different world musicly then it was
Don, I majored in economics and could have been an accountant, too, but I ran from that role because it doesn't give my creative side any energy. Ale has a great voice and can sing/has sung lead, but would rather not sing lead at this point. Maybe one day she'll have to do it for more than a few songs, and decide she likes it. Or maybe she'll be inspired to write a song that only she can express the way she wants it expressed. We can hope.
"Z" the show opener refers to "Kool Aid Kid" - "Kool Aid Kid" is another song where TW urge their fans to think for themselve, like "Disciple" and "XXI Century Blood". There are no bad song in their catalog - the last song you hear from them is your favorite until the next one and the next one.
They are living the dream red headed neighbor! Love your reaction to the girls. I’m a 65 year old prog rocker and I find myself crying with joy for them
It is not just the fact that they are masters of their individual instruments, or the fact that they write their own music and lyrics. They honestly love what they are doing. Yes, they are masters at creating great music, but they live for their on stage interaction with their fans. No band has ever had such a love and appreciation for their followers than do these three young ladies. All three of them sing, and they harmonize like no other rock band ever has. Their vocals are literally what gives them the edge over all other power trios that has ever existed! The Warning are destined to dominate the world of music for as long as they choose to do so. LONG LIVE THE VILLARREAL SISTERS!
I'd like to say funny finding you here. Almost 9 years later it's not funny at all. Were else would we be. We Are The Girls Honerary Gampa's. Stay Well Glen PUH PAU !!!
I don't think there's a Warning song that's not a fan favourite, but there's just such an huge catalogue for you to work your way through that you'll be lovin' on these girls for quite a while before you're anywhere close to getting through it all.
What is so cool is any of them could sing lead. So much talent and the sound from just 3 instruments is amazing 💯💯💯 #thewarningband #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #beautifulcountrygirl #redsarmy
it's my belief that they, especially Pau and Ale, were so young, and the immature brain is so malleable , it can, and does learn so readily, that their instruments are, indeed, extensions of themselves. Dany, being that important couple of years older may have had a slightly tougher time.. i. as many others have said, am SO proud of them..and mom and dad?? just WOW!
They just don't miss do they? I hear so many bits in their songs that remind me of 80's/90's rock. Love them! Their guitar sound is so good. I was just thinking given your love of drumming you really should do a showcase (or reaction if you haven't seen that version) of Sultans of Swing (alchemy live) one day. I mean the whole thing is one of the best live performances ever but also quite possibly the best live drumming performance I've ever seen.
Good suggestion 👍 Although I like the studio version better as far as drumming is concerned. Terry Williams made it too busy compared to Pick Withers' recorded version. My point of view is from the The Warning angle - its all about the song; whatever instrumentation is necessary to make a song work; nothing extra.
They recently did a radio interview in Mexico where they did a couple of song acoustically. I think you would enjoy that. Maybe someone can send you the link. I'm enjoying your reactions. You definitely are one of the coolest beans.
I know that Im a stan so my opinion doesn't hold too much weight, and well... yeah it's just my opinion. But this is one of the most impressive songs in all of music over the past decade. It's a unique song that sadly isn't appreciated enough by TWA. The groove is dark, sinister yet still very funky. The lyrics are some of the darkest lyrics penned. To better illustrate what I mean by "dark": Some lyrics from other artists are like a horror film (specially in the metal world and all of its flavours). They're gruesome and hit you in the head with violence. This isn't that. This is a slow burn atmospheric thriller, that doesn't shock you with scare jumps or violence. But instead it keeps you in suspense and it seems like you're no longer breathing due to the tension. This song is holding the mirror to society, it's mocking our cruelty and how easily we can be manipulated. The song builds and builds until the final choir as they all sing in unison. It's never let's down or slows down, it only amplifies and reinforces it's message. Dat groove tho.
Damn... I just posted something similar. This song is one of the most profound in rock history. Knocking on Heaven's Door (Dylan) or Us and Them (Floyd) come to mind immediately.
I'm drinking The Warning Kool-Aid! You are correct! This is a reference to the Jim Jones massacre... which spawned the phase - They Drank the Kool-Aid. 🤘☺️❤️
It's a reference to the modern meaning of the idiom, not the mass suicide directly, IMO. But yes I too am drinking The Warning Koolaid. I'm the Koolaid Man! (remember him?).
While I think the general "message" of the song is about the meaning of the phrase, the title Kool-Aid Kids is indeed a direct reference to that massacre. They (The Warning) confirmed it in an interview, so it's not just an opinion.
Yes, there is sibbling magic but there are also tons of hours of work. They are masters at their instruments not only because they are blessed with talent, but because they are one of the hardest-working professionals out there. Is not a coincidence is commitment.
You Asked Is This Song About Something. The First Line Gives It Away. Hey You Kool Aid Kids There's A Trader In Our Midst Somebody Has A Mind Of There Own . I Think There Saying Don't Drink The Woke Kool Aid !!! Love Your Reactions. And On A Personal Note. I'm 62 And My Mommy Was A Red Head. You Very Much Remind Of Her Everytime I See You So I Thank You For That !!! PUH PAU !!
Would love to see your reaction to a very old favorite of mine from their first album. " Show me the light". The guitar solo is moving. Gives me chills every time. Plus Pau sings lead from her keyboard. What more can you ask for?
And that masterpiece of a metaphor by Pau - "I need your daily poisoning". When we think about it, the person we love, seeps into our soul each moment. Everyday we look forward to him/her eagerly. Like a "poison" we imbibe their existence on a daily basis. Unbelievable maturity from a 14 year old girl. Never heard love being described like this before. Worth a Nobel.
Thanks Red for another spectacular Warning reaction!! The amount of Talent in these 3 sisters should be criminal...pretty sure this is a warrant out for "felony" talent....there should be anyway. Keep them coming Red....there is not a bad one in there entire repertoire of music....trust me!! The future is here and now!! Every song in this Live at Teatro Met is great....we can't pick a favorite sense everyone is a favorite....just the way it is.
Underrated song for sure. It has definitely grown to be one of my favorites, especially this performance. Always happy to see someone react to this one. Peace! 🤘
I think they are referencing the event and drawing similarities to society in its current condition. Dual purpose…timeless message…masterful song. I like the drum/bass sections of their songs. Sometimes you don’t need Dany’s guitar…just her other instrument.
Oh, we’ve suggested this one. Remember waaay back in the beginning when we said: “EVERYTHING!” & “just pull up Metropolitan theater & press play” 😂 But seriously, their catalog is (soon to be) 60-songs in a top 5 list. ‘Z’ & ‘Kool Aid Kids’ get overlooked. ‘ERROR’ doesn’t get the ‘AMOUR’ it deserves😉 & that’s just 1 album. Queen of the Murder Scene counts as 1 recommendation the entire album is just that good. & XXI Century. Blood … there’s not a skippable song on that one either. ‘Wildfire’, ‘Runaway’ & ‘Rivers Soul’ often get overlooked in recommendations as well. & of course there’s the EP. Speaking of, have you done any Liceo videos yet? Well, there’s a recommendation right there! 😊.
The Warning are playing a show in Japan with BAND-MAID in the summer. Both bands are big mutual fans of each other and met at a US Festival. Everything you said about The Warning in your intro, you can multiply by at least 5 for BAND-MAID - the way they 'rock', their obvious enjoyment on stage, their live shows being where they shine brightest (without casting any shadow on how good their studio recordings are), the musicianship, the bass, the drums.... Try 'Hate?' from their Yokohama Arena 10th anniversary finale but be prepared to be blown away.
@@manuelmanuel2079You've got your opinion, I've got mine. Music is subjective. Both bands are fans of the other, and both know how to rock. I wasn't actually being negative about The Warning - they ARE very good at what they do.
The way you describe The Warning on stage is exactly the reason i keep watching your reactions everyday. You are always so bright and chipper and we can tell you love doing this.
i know many do understand the reference to "drinking the kool-aid" but i'm going to post this for those that do not know or understand it... from wikipedia since it has the easiest to understand description of what "Drinking the Kool-Aid" means: ""Drinking the Kool-Aid" is an expression used to refer to a person who believes in a possibly doomed or dangerous idea because of perceived potential high rewards. The phrase typically carries a negative connotation. It can also be used ironically or humorously to refer to accepting an idea or changing a preference due to popularity, peer pressure, or persuasion. In recent years, it has evolved further to mean extreme dedication to a cause or purpose, so extreme that one would "drink the Kool-Aid" and die for the cause." basically *Kool-Aid Kids* is about people believing everything that someone or some group tells them... they believe it so much that they blindly follow along with everything the group says and does... even to their detriment and downfall... this is known as "drinking the kool-aid"... irony: TWA absolutely drink the DPA/TW kool-aid 😜😹 this is one of DPA/TW's songs about social media and how it affects people in ways they don't even know... *XXI Century Blood* and *Disciple* are two other fantastic original DPA/TW songs in this same vein... their song *Z* references this song in one of its verses, too... the first two of these have OMVs that depict hard hitting stories that are true in so many ways... if you haven't seen them yet, they are well worth the watch... TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
Definitely one of their underplayed songs and, at the same time, one of their best. Certainly one of my favorites! It’s a deep song and an excellent composition. And you’re absolutely correct on how in command they are of their instruments and how interconnected they perform with such joy and passion. Nice reaction as always! Thanks!
Red, I’m so glad you got to this song. One of my favorite TW songs of all time. Biting social commentary couched in a heavy, delicious rock groove. Try Queen of the Murder Scene (QOTMS), bearing in mind that it is part of a concept album of the same name telling a specific story, of which the song QOTMS is one of the climactic moments. I would recommend their Metropolitan Theater performance of it, the same concert as this Kool Aid Kids performance. P.S.: IMO, you’ve been part of The Warning Army for some time now. P.P.S.: In a nutshell, the QOTMS album storyline is: unrequited love leads to obsession leads to murder leads to madness. Intense; I know.
Whether you listen to their message or words or just the music, they have so much more than anyone near their level. No one brings so much good solid sound that is deep, bright and extremely tight. You can listen to any song by them over and over and still be impressed every time you hear it. Great reaction and excellent breakdown Ms Red. Hello from San Antonio.
Now, these young ladies are a breath of fresh air. They're extremely talented and very fun to watch. From their cover of "Enter Sandman" 10 years ago when Ale's bass was as big or bigger than she was up to their recent release, I haven't been disappointed. Live they are phenomenal. Fun little fact about this song, when recording it the clanking soung you hear in the beginning Pau used her mother's pearl necklace dragged through a glass bowl to get that sound.
What's next you ask? while live performances are great, no doubt about it, you miss a lot of context that a music video brings with it. That said, you watched the live version of it, but their music video for "Evolve" is quite unique in that it was shot entirely using only smartphones.
Es una de mis canciones favoritas. Very, very, very, polític rock. En la canción "Z" también nombran a los Kool Aid Kids. A los que les resulta demasiado fácil ser crueles en esta Era de las redes sociales. Sigamos bebiendo y brindando, una y otra vez. Que al parecer, de eso se trata ser humano. 😂😂😂 Poderosa canción, poderoso mensaje. Saludos desde la Patagonia Argentina. The Warning nos une.
No, I don't think they are referencing Jonestown directly, but rather the modern meme version of 'drinking the koolaid', which I expect most people these days don't even know where it came from. But yeah, it is a bit of a savage song.
Without actually speaking about Jim Jones they are referring to blindly drinking the Kool-Aid, or blindly following a crowd without thinking for themselves.
It blows my mind that 3 sisters from Mexico composed one of the most profound metaphorical songs in rock, using a quintessentially American phrase. Assuming KAK was written in 2019-20, Ale was about 15 when she wrote this bassline that gets melodious in the middle. It requires multiple listening. Really don't know why fans are not into this song. Too profound maybe? Wiki has this to say - "Drinking the Kool-Aid" is most strongly believing and accepting in a deadly, deranged, or foolish ideology or concept based only upon the overpowering coaxing of another; the expression is also used to refer to a person who wrongly has faith in a possibly doomed or dangerous idea because of perceived potential high rewards. The phrase typically carries a negative connotation. It can also be used ironically or humorously to refer to accepting an idea or changing a preference due to popularity, peer pressure, or persuasion. In recent years, it has evolved further to mean extreme dedication to a cause or purpose, so extreme that one would "drink the Kool-Aid" and die for the cause. While use of the phrase dates back to 1968 with the nonfiction book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test[citation needed], it is strongly associated with the events in Jonestown, Guyana, on November 18, 1978, in which over 900 members of the Peoples Temple movement died. The movement's leader, Jim Jones, called a mass meeting at the Jonestown pavilion after the murder of U.S. Congressman Leo Ryan and others in nearby Port Kaituma. Jones proposed "revolutionary suicide" by way of ingesting a powdered drink mix made from Flavor Aid (later misidentified as Kool-Aid) that was lethally laced with cyanide and other drugs.[1][2]
Red I don't think it references the event but it references the term as it evolved in pop culture. Drink the Koolaid; just trust me and do as you're told. As others have said below it's about thinking for yourself and not just drinking the Koolaid.
They are referencing a phrase that references an event. “Don’t Drink the Kool Aid”. Don’t fall for the lies. Use your coconut & don’t follow the crowd. ‘Disciple’ part 2.
I think many people don't like it because of the title. I do think it is well named and is a very meaningful song. Maybe it just hits too close to.home for some.

Kool Aid Kids is so much deeper than the title suggests at first glance. I think it's up there with XXI Century Blood as far as powerful, deep meaning lyrics go. "Hey you, Kool-Aid kids, there's a traitor in our midst. Somebody's got a mind of their own" Think for yourself and don't just drink the kool aid being poured for you.
Best way to sum up this song’s meaning! 🤘
Kool Aid Kids, Z, and Disciple are some of the sharpest social commentary I've ever seen in music. It's really easy to write a protest song but it's a lot more mature to recognize the dangers of radicalism and mob mentality.
While the term "Drink the kool aid" references the Jonestown mass suicide, the phrase has come to mean falling to any group think to your own detriment. I see this song as calling out any form of coercive conformity.
The message about not having to follow the crowd makes this one of my favorites from The Warning. Excellent!
In another band, Pau would be full time lead vocalist. In yet another band, Ale could be lead vocalist. It’s crazy how good they are!
Ale no she wouldn't even if could. The bands introvert
These Ladies exist in another world...the new world of Rock and Roll...so much thanks to these girls for giving me back my Rock and Roll...I missed it!!!!
Fun prediction: TW will achieve massive success as a band, reaching legendary status in the world of Rock. Then, they will go their separate ways, perhaps to start families. Pau will continue with a successful solo career as a singer/composer. Once they are seasoned veterans, they will reunite and tour the world simply for enjoyment! I hope to live many years just as them to witness that! :D
@@AreliMusiK that's alot to digest. As band's member's get older it's harder for a band to be as committed. Family etc. takes some of the priorities.

The song is indirectly mentioning the “event” you were referring to but directly mentioning the saying and meaning that sprang from it.
What is so cool is any of them could sing lead. So much talent and the sound from just 3 instruments is amazing 💯💯💯 #thewarningband #redheadedneighbor #bestreactor #beautifulcountrygirl #redsarmy
⚡️⚡️⚡️ a great groove for sure.. I love that their songs all have some sort of message, meaning or societal message. All my favorites!
it's my belief that they, especially Pau and Ale, were so young, and the immature brain is so malleable , it can, and does learn so readily, that their instruments are, indeed, extensions of themselves. Dany, being that important couple of years older may have had a slightly tougher time.. i. as many others have said, am SO proud of them..and mom and dad?? just WOW!

Sort of! Yes, this is about blindly drinking the kool aid because someone ( SM) told them to. Blindly following SM pressure.
Kool Aid Kids de los temas de rock inteligentes de The Warning ,excelente tema y mensaje ,gran riff un tema para reflexionar
yes they are young everyone seems to forget that they have been at this for 10 yrs , they are veteran musicians
This is a song I keep discovering.
It surprises me every time again and again..

Try 'Hate?' from their Yokohama Arena 10th anniversary finale but be prepared to be blown away.
Don't multiply it. Subtract it at least 100 times for band maid
@@manuelmanuel2079You've got your opinion, I've got mine. Music is subjective. Both bands are fans of the other, and both know how to rock. I wasn't actually being negative about The Warning - they ARE very good at what they do.
All hell will break loose with a glimpse of Automatic Sun released a few hours back.
There are so many great songs and performances that we're spoiled for choice. It's kind of hard to pick one to recommend.
The way you describe The Warning on stage is exactly the reason i keep watching your reactions everyday. You are always so bright and chipper and we can tell you love doing this.
It is referencing the event. The song is about not following like sheep and urging you not to drink the Kool Aid.
i know many do understand the reference to "drinking the kool-aid" but i'm going to post this for those that do not know or understand it...
from wikipedia since it has the easiest to understand description of what "Drinking the Kool-Aid" means:
""Drinking the Kool-Aid" is an expression used to refer to a person who believes in a possibly doomed or dangerous idea because of perceived potential high rewards. The phrase typically carries a negative connotation. It can also be used ironically or humorously to refer to accepting an idea or changing a preference due to popularity, peer pressure, or persuasion. In recent years, it has evolved further to mean extreme dedication to a cause or purpose, so extreme that one would "drink the Kool-Aid" and die for the cause."
basically *Kool-Aid Kids* is about people believing everything that someone or some group tells them... they believe it so much that they blindly follow along with everything the group says and does... even to their detriment and downfall... this is known as "drinking the kool-aid"...
irony: TWA absolutely drink the DPA/TW kool-aid 😜😹
this is one of DPA/TW's songs about social media and how it affects people in ways they don't even know... *XXI Century Blood* and *Disciple* are two other fantastic original DPA/TW songs in this same vein... their song *Z* references this song in one of its verses, too... the first two of these have OMVs that depict hard hitting stories that are true in so many ways... if you haven't seen them yet, they are well worth the watch...
TWA ⚡🤘😸🤘⚡ TWA
It's hard to imagine how three people, where the oldest one was born in 2000, even heard of Jonestown.
That is the loudest I have heard Ale's bass, it is terrific...
The Warning RULES! lets all not be Kool Aid Kids, love your reactions you're the best, Right On!
Definitely one of their underplayed songs and, at the same time, one of their best. Certainly one of my favorites!
It’s a deep song and an excellent composition. And you’re absolutely correct on how in command they are of their instruments and how interconnected they perform with such joy and passion.
Nice reaction as always! Thanks!
Red, I’m so glad you got to this song. One of my favorite TW songs of all time. Biting social commentary couched in a heavy, delicious rock groove. Try Queen of the Murder Scene (QOTMS), bearing in mind that it is part of a concept album of the same name telling a specific story, of which the song QOTMS is one of the climactic moments. I would recommend their Metropolitan Theater performance of it, the same concert as this Kool Aid Kids performance. P.S.: IMO, you’ve been part of The Warning Army for some time now. P.P.S.: In a nutshell, the QOTMS album storyline is: unrequited love leads to obsession leads to murder leads to madness. Intense; I know.
Whether you listen to their message or words or just the music, they have so much more than anyone near their level. No one brings so much good solid sound that is deep, bright and extremely tight. You can listen to any song by them over and over and still be impressed every time you hear it.
Great reaction and excellent breakdown Ms Red. Hello from San Antonio.
I have a buddy. Let’s just call him Stu. He would love it if you were to react to 23 from this same concert. Pau lead sings. You will love it. ❤
Tell Stu.. that sounds like a great idea!
Thanks, redhead neighbor. Always a pleasure to see your reactions.
Thanks for watching!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_the_Kool-Aid
This song is about this : Drinking the kool-aid
This is a veiled reference to the event in Guyana in 1978 when “drinking the Kool Aid” entered the language to mean falling for false ideologies.
Even before this song was released, Ale, when asked, said Kool Aid Kids was her favourite song to play on the new album.
This is one of the best 🎉
That bass from Ale sounds powerful in this song
Every song from this concert is great. Just keep picking them from the Teatro Metropólitan show. You can't go wrong.
_Kool Aid Kids_ is yet another warning by The Warning, Ale said she really enjoyed recording this one. Error is such a great album.
Now, these young ladies are a breath of fresh air. They're extremely talented and very fun to watch. From their cover of "Enter Sandman" 10 years ago when Ale's bass was as big or bigger than she was up to their recent release, I haven't been disappointed. Live they are phenomenal.
Fun little fact about this song, when recording it the clanking soung you hear in the beginning Pau used her mother's pearl necklace dragged through a glass bowl to get that sound.
Wow - thank you for that interesting tidbit.
they are in such a zone. and no one else comes close.
Ale the Metronome!
If you haven’t heard it yet, ‘Dust to Dust’ features a great bass into, and Pau singing lead from her drum kit.
What's next you ask? while live performances are great, no doubt about it, you miss a lot of context that a music video brings with it. That said, you watched the live version of it, but their music video for "Evolve" is quite unique in that it was shot entirely using only smartphones.
Poderosas, sincronizadas,letras directas y con contenido simplemente son fabulosas.
Yes!!
I'm so glad you reacted to this one. It is one of my favorites and I don't know if I've seen anyone else react to this.
Es una de mis canciones favoritas. Very, very, very, polític rock.
En la canción "Z" también nombran a los Kool Aid Kids.
A los que les resulta demasiado fácil ser crueles en esta Era de las redes sociales.
Sigamos bebiendo y brindando, una y otra vez. Que al parecer, de eso se trata ser humano. 😂😂😂
Poderosa canción, poderoso mensaje.
Saludos desde la Patagonia Argentina.
The Warning nos une.
💕💕💕
WE ARE PRIVLEDGED TO BEHOLD SUCH GREATNESS,.....BEAUTY, TALENT, FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION AND RELEVENCE.......ROCK ON....... YOUR ARMY AWAITS.
Very impressive lyrics, music, and performance. I think this band is rising at the right moment, and time
No, I don't think they are referencing Jonestown directly, but rather the modern meme version of 'drinking the koolaid', which I expect most people these days don't even know where it came from. But yeah, it is a bit of a savage song.
Brilliant social commentary with an inescapable groove! This has become on of my favorite songs by The Warning!
The Warning = Alejandra (Ale) 🎸🎤+ Paulina (Pau) 🥁🎤+ Daniela (Dany) 🎤🎸 Villarreal. Three talented Mexican sisters. !!!🎵ole ole ole oleeee Warning Warning🎵¡¡¡. Greetings from Argentina.
💕💕
OH YEAH!!!
❤❤❤❤❤
Without actually speaking about Jim Jones they are referring to blindly drinking the Kool-Aid, or blindly following a crowd without thinking for themselves.
That’s what I thought..
I love this song. Its a highlight from the Error album.
3:48 - 3:50 is one of my favorite moments ever caught on video.
❤ ❤ ❤
Love it And the Warning too lol woow❤❤
💕💕💕
I🖤TW🤘
It blows my mind that 3 sisters from Mexico composed one of the most profound metaphorical songs in rock, using a quintessentially American phrase. Assuming KAK was written in 2019-20, Ale was about 15 when she wrote this bassline that gets melodious in the middle. It requires multiple listening. Really don't know why fans are not into this song. Too profound maybe?
Wiki has this to say -
"Drinking the Kool-Aid" is most strongly believing and accepting in a deadly, deranged, or foolish ideology or concept based only upon the overpowering coaxing of another; the expression is also used to refer to a person who wrongly has faith in a possibly doomed or dangerous idea because of perceived potential high rewards. The phrase typically carries a negative connotation. It can also be used ironically or humorously to refer to accepting an idea or changing a preference due to popularity, peer pressure, or persuasion. In recent years, it has evolved further to mean extreme dedication to a cause or purpose, so extreme that one would "drink the Kool-Aid" and die for the cause.
While use of the phrase dates back to 1968 with the nonfiction book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test[citation needed], it is strongly associated with the events in Jonestown, Guyana, on November 18, 1978, in which over 900 members of the Peoples Temple movement died. The movement's leader, Jim Jones, called a mass meeting at the Jonestown pavilion after the murder of U.S. Congressman Leo Ryan and others in nearby Port Kaituma. Jones proposed "revolutionary suicide" by way of ingesting a powdered drink mix made from Flavor Aid (later misidentified as Kool-Aid) that was lethally laced with cyanide and other drugs.[1][2]
They have my kind of weather.
Underated song. Same with error at this same show
❤🤘😘
Their favorite song from error album, because of the message
Bass for the Win ! Hahahahahahahahaha
Red I don't think it references the event but it references the term as it evolved in pop culture. Drink the Koolaid; just trust me and do as you're told. As others have said below it's about thinking for yourself and not just drinking the Koolaid.
❤❤❤🤘🤘🤘⚡⚡⚡🔥
They are referencing a phrase that references an event. “Don’t Drink the Kool Aid”. Don’t fall for the lies. Use your coconut & don’t follow the crowd. ‘Disciple’ part 2.
viva the warnings
Have you reacted to one of their old ones called shattered heart? One of their best imo
I think many people don't like it because of the title. I do think it is well named and is a very meaningful song. Maybe it just hits too close to.home for some.
I might visit Wainwright, USA, one day. Do you live close?
