I've love the rhythm and tempo and message of this song since it first came out in the 90's. And I've listened to blues artist that dated back to the 20's and 30's, but I don't remember them singing about being homeless.....and staying there. Granted times have changed....but there are plenty of jobs out there available. Especially construction jobs. Inflation kicks everyone's tail....but construction is still a Great paying job. If you can swing a hammer...you have a job.
I think I'm a very empathic person. Everytime I hear this song, I get a bit choked up for some reason. I think the song has a fantastic message. You don't have to agree with other people's decisions, but unless you've walked through life in their shoes, you have no place to judge them.
I see what you mean, don't judge drunks or drug addicts, it's their life to fuck up, right? Then one day they cross the center line and kill an innocent family in a head on collision....Maybe if if was your family you would be more likely to judge....
@@pulsarlights2825 Jesus Christ dude, the point is not to judge because you don't know what happened to them to get them to that point in their life. Maybe that drug addict lost a friend or family member to a drunk driver and they just lost all will to live. Or they had a shitty childhood and they can't get rid of the memories so they turn to alcohol/drugs. Obviously if they commit a horrendous crime they're going to be judged, literally too.
I had a very powerful personal experience with this song. I was going through an extremely difficult time in my life. I was sitting in my car at probably the lowest I'd been and this song came on. I FELT this song and I understood what it was like to feel deep pain for the first time in my life. In some strange way, this song helped me get going in the right direction because it caused me to acknowledge the pain. This is one of the reasons I love music so much.
This song helped me too ,in similar way.glad I never pulled the trigger,now I have 3 amazing kids and 10 grandkids.music helps clean the soul.stay strong man.have a great day
Music can be uplifting if it has substance. I attached certain songs to certain memories. Helps me remember where I came from and where I am now. Keep on keepin' on! 👍
I live by a simple philosophy: Do what you can, when you can, if you can, the best you can, it is the least one can do. Life is a team sport, nobody makes it alone.
Everlast was a musical chameleon. 95% of people immediately associate him to House of Pain before he went solo.4.9 % know himas the solo artist and 0.1% of us know, Everlast was in the West Coast Rhyme Syndicate in the late 80's with rap artists like Terry B , Donald D and Ice T. Look up , Everlast = The Rhythm ruclips.net/video/CdGz_QUJJfs/видео.html. The slicked back hair and suit lol
My wife and I recently went out and handed out bag lunches to the homeless and we say nothing but gratitude. We struggle, but there are others that have it harder.
2023 and still a staple in my dayly sounds to remind me I'm not the judge of individuals.. some just need a leading hand to the path of there savior... Sadly most will run back to there habits... 🤷
The second verse of this excellent song is a hell of a lot more relevant now than when this video (or the original Music Vid) was released, given that the Supreme Court is now handing down decisions based on Christian Sharia Law.
This was a brave song for it's time and even now. No one talked about in song nor supported abortion rights and the choice. This was groundbreaking, and the message still fits today's generation.
uhm yeah no not really.... musicians were talking about those things before everlast even called himself everlast... certainly not the first, but doesn't lessen the meaning of the song, though
Abortion is murder.. the songs words are " then you might know what's it's like to have to choose" she chose to have sex with him .. that's the baby's fault how? Kill the baby cause the dad was a loser? What logic is that... Shame on you!!
In the Trump era, the call for empathy is more important then ever. Trump's entire Presidency was a realm of cruelty. How evil do you have to be to actually go to court like Trump did to make sure cancer patients are locked out of even being able to PURCHASE health insurance? All the while his charity was stealing from cancer charities.
@@GunsmithSid You're right, it shouldn't. But sadly it does. It's mostly a racist cult that promotes conspiracy/cruelty. We are going to call it out until it's gone.
@Pro Me The US No. You love Trump if you are defending him. There is no defense for him at this point. We are going to call it out until it's gone. #AntiDemocracyCult.
It really is a very good song, that delivers on the musical and lyrical fronts equally well. It shows that you can deliver an intelligent lyric in a very accessible tune.
Everlast does a great song with Santana called" Put your lights on" .... Its a vibe for sure! Your interpretation is spot on - empathy all the way. Dont judge until youve walked that same mile in those same shoes.
I saw Everlast with Santana in '00, it was a really good show. He's also known for being the frontman for House of Pain, for which you may know the song "Jump Around."
You two are great; Brad is like a miner, digging deep into the tunes for those nuggets of gold and Lex is like a surfer, catching the waves of the music & getting the feel of 'em.
One of the best songs ever written for my money, a very legit tune, and until you've walked that mile as someone else, PLESE don't judge others! And yes, that wasn't always my own mentality, but to receive grace, you must be willing to give it, and God knows I need it and then some!!!
@@this.is.a.username haha, right? if anything, those were the non pc days..... the time when you could be overtly racist or sexist on tv just as long as you didn't use any curse words
I watched at least 3 reaction vids on this song before yours and you were the first (that I saw) to hit on the empathy angle. That is the sole point of this song.
Another good story telling song is P.O.D. “Youth of the nation” but a must is to watch the music video to capture the reality of the lyrics, it hits ball out of the park perfectly.
I remember having both of these songs on a mix CD in my first car. It's hard listening to one without thinking of the other, despite genres being fairly different.
Thank you Brad and Lex.....you gave the song the respect it deserves by simply listening. It is one of the most brutally honest songs ever written and there are many people that would benefit from listening to it. You two keep rocking on and thank you.
Everlast was the main rapper in the group House of Pain. "Jump Around" was the biggest Hip Hop song in the world for a while back in the 90's You guy's know it. Pack it up, pack it in, let me begin I came to win, battle me that's a sin I won't ever slack up, punk you better back up Try and play the role and yo the whole crew'll act up Get up, stand up (c'mon!) throw your hands up If you've got the feeling, jump across the ceiling Muggs lifts a funk flow, someone's talking junk Yo I bust him in the eye, and then I'll take the punk's hoe Feelin', funkin', amps in the trunk and I got more rhymes Than there's cops at a Dunkin' Donuts shop Sho' nuff, I got props From the kids on the hill plus my mom and my pops I came to get down, I came to get down So get out your seat and jump around! Jump around! Jump around! Jump around! Jump up, jump up and get down! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! (Everybody jump) Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump! Jump!
Brad is right about it being a song about Empathy. :) I notice you reacted to Marcy Playground's Sex and Candy the same day. Everlast often warms up to that song :) Will check out that next. The singer was a friend of mine.
Everlast was in the rap band House Of Pain, they had hits with songs like Jump Around and Shamrocks And Shenanigans, i love that one alot. Boom Shalock Lock Boom!!!!
I remember I totally loved this when it came out, still do! Also I remember the singer had some kind of beef with Eminem but I dont remember what it was about. Good choice, no one ever reacts to this.
I Raised Myself Since I Was 9.Years Old & I've Always Told People That,, You Have To TRULY Know Bad,, Before You Can TRULY Know Good & Let's Just Say,, Bad & I Have Met..Lol
I love playing this song to people after playing them House of Pains "Jump around" and telling them the singer of this song and the rapper of that song are the SAME PERSON. Minds blown.
I have alot OF respect for Everlast's Blues Chops being a musician ,too.. Most of us have seen this song in the course of life. That's why you really know what it's like...🤟🇺🇸🥇🇺🇸🦅✌
Whitey Ford! Songs of the Ungrateful Living, I believe it is called, is one of the most underrated blues records I've ever heard. House of Pain was great, but Everlast really found himself as a blues singer
this song will always be time stamped to one of the worst days i ever had in my life....but eventually it became a blessing in disguise. it was 1998 when i got fired from work, came home to find my car had been towed because it had been broken down for a week. to top it all off, i opened the door to my shitty apartment and the little that i had, had been stolen. everything but my couch and a small radio. i turned it on and this song was playing. i sat on my couch, put my head down into my hands and right as i was about to cry, my cell phone rang. it was my dad who i hadn't seen for like 10 years. he got me out of Texas and my whole life changed for the better after that day.
This is a song most can relate to in some form or another. For me I know what its like to lose everything, including home, and be one of those asking for spare change...was homeless for over 4yrs before an opportunity came and gradually got me back on my feet, not 100% but better than nothing. Now I'm married have a family and living life regardless of the struggles still dealing with. And that opportunity that came and helped me... well I've been married to her now for 20yrs and was blessed with 2 kids, both of which are grown and 1 just got married a month ago to her high-school sweet heart.... he's in the Army. Good reaction guys 🙏✌🤟🤘😎🤘
American Blues, from back in the 1700's is like Ghengis-fucking-Khan. It's seed is everywhere and you don't have to look that hard to find it. From R&B, to rap to Motown, to country to grunge....that seed is always there.
Damn y'all! This is one of those songs you NEED the official video. Kinda like REM "Everybody Hurts" - video required. Please when you have a minute watch it. It's very, very powerful. I think you could say Erik had a change of "heart". The House Of Pain front man had gone solo & was recording the album "Whitey Ford Sings The Blues'. At the young age of 28, he suffered a massive cardiac arrest which resulted in him getting an artificial valve. He went through a profound change in mentality, obviously. He even converted religions to Islam. A man of peace. I absolutely love this song. Brad & Lex - hopefully, you'll take the time to watch the video - I'd love to hear your thoughts. ❤Jen
I would like to see this too! Almost like do a second listen video where its focused more on the video. Because some videos are just as impactful/important as the music
There's a theme in these songs: What is Truth - Johnny Cash Pepper - Butthole Surfers The Kids Aren't Alright - the Offspring Youth of a Nation - P.O.D. What it's like - Everlast Castles - Tom MacDonald Did your best - Nova Rockafeller
Great Comment Brad on having Empathy for others...isn't it better to be merciful than believe we have the authority and approval to judge others....well said!
Don't judge anyone, you never know when you are on the other end. Give people a break.
This is real for most of the population. Not too many people care about their neighbor.
I've love the rhythm and tempo and message of this song since it first came out in the 90's. And I've listened to blues artist that dated back to the 20's and 30's, but I don't remember them singing about being homeless.....and staying there. Granted times have changed....but there are plenty of jobs out there available. Especially construction jobs. Inflation kicks everyone's tail....but construction is still a Great paying job. If you can swing a hammer...you have a job.
Imo It's preaching compassion for fellow man in opposite of judgement. Great message and song.
"You know where it ends, yo, it usually depends on where you start" - sadly maybe truest lyrics ever written
Amen!
That is a brutal line..
Everlast one the legit underrated goat's.
Original member of House of Pain. He crushes til this day!
I think I'm a very empathic person. Everytime I hear this song, I get a bit choked up for some reason. I think the song has a fantastic message. You don't have to agree with other people's decisions, but unless you've walked through life in their shoes, you have no place to judge them.
AMEN!
PREACH!👊✊
FACTS!

Glad you are doing well brother. Music is a healer and theres a song for every moment. Hope everything stays up for you.
sorry to hear that my friend,but i wouldn't waste my time with these two they don't read posts.....glad to hear your back on track..GOD BLESS...
Yes my brothers music is healing and I'm glad you found yours. We need y'all here. One love
Music can be uplifting if it has substance. I attached certain songs to certain memories. Helps me remember where I came from and where I am now. Keep on keepin' on! 👍
"Ends" is another epic Everlast track, and deserves a listen after this.
Yes!
I get by is a good one
And "Money (Dollar Bill)".
Yessssss
I’m a young mexican stoner trying to make it out the hood & this 9-5 by doing reaction videos & storytimes on my RUclips channel 🤒
This whole album was pretty dope. A big change from the "jump around" house of pain days
Complete 180
Heart attacks will do that to you
@@pollabear2000 LOL Exactly.
Getting destroyed by Eminem will do that

Everlast was the singer for House of pain. He's done some awesome music.
Quite a different sound then jump around
The work he did with La Coka Nostra was awesome too!
Before that his schtick was a "classy" wrapper lol...check out "I got the Knack" if you haven't heard before.
Rapper
Can't ever forget that he also did , Put Your Lights On with Santana.
Empathy song, perfect description Brad.
Everlast - "I Get By", "White Trash Beautiful", "Even God Don't Know" "Put Your Lights On" w/Santana, & "Black Jesus"
Jump, jump, jump around
This is the best song about not passing judgment ever written.
This was a brave song for it's time and even now. No one talked about in song nor supported abortion rights and the choice. This was groundbreaking, and the message still fits today's generation.

@@the-DMZ-guy You missed the entire point of the song. Listen again.
I see a couple people mentioned that Everlast sang (rapped) for House of Pain, but he started out as a member of Ice-T's 'Syndicate'...
Everlast is an artist.
This song was everywhere for a large swath of the 1990s. Such a powerful and profound song, no matter how many times I've heard it.
After many years of hearing it on FM radio, I think this is the first time I've ever heard it completely uncensored.
This is honestly a timeless classic and a very original concept. A beautiful and powerful call for empathy. Respect.
In a funny way this song reminds me of Another day in paradise by Phil Collins...

I won't ever slack up, punk you better back up
Try and play the role and yo the whole crew'll act up
Get up, stand up (c'mon!) throw your hands up
If you've got the feeling, jump across the ceiling
Muggs lifts a funk flow, someone's talking junk
Yo I bust him in the eye, and then I'll take the punk's hoe
Feelin', funkin', amps in the trunk and I got more rhymes
Than there's cops at a Dunkin' Donuts shop
Sho' nuff, I got props
From the kids on the hill plus my mom and my pops
I came to get down, I came to get down
So get out your seat and jump around!
Jump around!

The Mighty Mighty Bosstones - The Impression That I Get
Great to see you twos take on joints like this. You are both as real as it gets. Props. Also.... Lex is the cutest thing!
This song was huge on the mainstream rock stations. I really like it. Big difference from his House of Pain days and “Jump Around.”
Thanks for the lyric breakdown. Don't always listen to what I hear.
Their song Black Jesus is very good.
That's some great guitar work 👌
If the world was full of people like you Two it'd be a whole lot better place to be ✌️🙏♥️
Everybody can relate to this song in one way or another.

You might know what it likes to sing the blues.
I'm just amazed that a person from different era or times can JUST GET MUSIC the way u do lex
THE VIDEO FITS PERFECTLY WITH HIS SONG...check it out
Funny it came from the hip hop artist who did jump around. Still good
This is the most real life sing i ever heard. A true classic
You should listen to Muse! They are an insane band, amazing instrumentals. I recommend Madness, Stockholm Syndrome, Uprising, and Hysteria
They opened for U2 360 tour . Saw them at the GA dome in Hotlanta. Super awesome band!!!!
Super massive blackhole is one of their's that I love 🤘🤙
@@ra-TH_ yes yes!!! My favs are Knights of Cydonia, uprising AND their cover of Nina Simones’ Feelin’ Good!

I Raised Myself Since I Was 9.Years Old & I've Always Told People That,, You Have To TRULY Know Bad,, Before You Can TRULY Know Good & Let's Just Say,, Bad & I Have Met..Lol
*The Music Video bring this song to life*
I love playing this song to people after playing them House of Pains "Jump around" and telling them the singer of this song and the rapper of that song are the SAME PERSON. Minds blown.
I never really realized how straight fire this song is gawwdamnnn
It blew my mind when House of Pain became Whitey Ford!! Lol
He does a cover of a song called A Change Is Gonna Come that's pretty heavy.
Lonely Road, Black Jesus, Ends ,I Get Buy, and White Trash Beautiful are all bangers from Everlast
That guitar line in the beginning is absolute fire. I seriously love this intro so much
Good outlook Brad. Compassion isn't dependent on agreeing or condoning something!
Every time I hear the song "Goosebumps" So much truth spoken in such a short song!
Brad. 100% this is about empathy. Sadly, today people seem short of. Let's make it a point to understand one another rather than judge.
This has been my tune up song for years when playing my guitar 👌🏴
I like rock, I really do. Still feels good to hear bars over beats on the channel now and then. What a classic!
I want to see these two react to ICP sooooo bad

Brought back memories Public Enemy and Anthrax collab, back in the day.
Everlast...of House Of Pain "Jump Around" fame. Multi talented rapper, singer, songwriter, musician and producer.
Everlast is great! "The Ends" is my favorite song. The lead singer was in House of Pain..their song "Jump Around" is an anthem.
