If bacteria could beatbox hahaha what a quote hahaha !!

and the cool thing is that it's (therefore?) lacking the sometimes very +artificial+ "seriousness" (grim face etc.) that way too many metalheads seem to put on. like, no one said you can't +enjoy+ heavy music. but too often I feel metalheads make it seem like they don't even have fun (listening to it).

@@notimportant3686 Unless you know him personally, he's shown no signs of it bothering him. And if it did, that's a him thing anyway. Hell, Jada Pinkett Smith played in a metal band and I don't think Will was ever bothered by it.
She nailed it at the end. The song represents the growth of children into adults. All kids are freaks in their own way but as you grow up you learn to suppress it and develop into whoever you become. He is speaking from the point that if you never get past that or don’t grow up you feel like you don’t belong even though we were all that way at some point.
I used to be annoyed with kids getting on a school bus when they fooled and around and held up traffic. Now I’m sad for them because they have no idea what that universe of possibilities in their mind means, and what the world will do to it when they get turned into cogs in a machine.

The CGI in this music video was quite advanced for it's time and was widely accalimed when it came out, the bullet flying around everyones head and from scene to scene. Very unique and original. It won Best Editing and Best Rock Video at the 1999 MTV Video Music Awards, and later received the Grammy Award for Best Short Form Music Video in 2000.
This beat is theirs. This song was played massively on the radio, so I'm sure you've heard it before somewhere. KoRn are definitely very unique. Their guitars have an extra string on them to give a heavier bass sound. That noise he was making was a mixture of beat boxing and scat.
Korn popularized this beat. However, its been played a million times. Especially if you're referring to the "beat" as the drums. With the bass added there is an argument for that I guess, but traditionally speaking a beat is the drums, and that has been played a bunch. especially jazz. speed that up a bunch and it has jazzy tendencies. That said, this is one of my favorite implementations of that beat! It fits the song well, and he nails the little double stroke rolls most the song. Great tune! just wanted to clear up the whole "beat" thing. Definitely been played before🙂.
"This is so different!" This is what I love about this era of metal, the bands were all experimenting and bringing new sounds into the mix! Linkin Park, Slipknot and Korn could all be considered Nu Metal but they're three vastly different sounds, its amazing
@@matthew9626 True, but Got The Life is a fun video and really catapulted them to superstardom. Might be good to break up pt.1 and 2 with it. Tough call.
Most all rock and ESPECIALLY METAL music speaks on the raw, hard shit that the world chooses to ignore. Glad you like this one. Korn helped me a lot with depression as a kid. Bringing out our inner child rids the world of judgement and violence from malice.
Yep it's usually the stuff that society tries to cover up and ignore. It's also why a lot of it doesn't get played on radios and stuff because people just feel uncomfortable hearing the honesty in the songs. They'd rather some catchy poppy song that has no meaning so people will focus on that stuff rather than the issues at hand. Like even "This is America" by childing Gambino speaks on this too.
There is a quote from Jonathan Davis, the vocalist of Korn: “When I listen to music, I don’t want to hear about flowers. I like death and destruction.” It tells a lots about his music.
The middle section that Lex liked so much is actually a technique called scat singing. Louis Armstrong started it in the '40s, and not many artists can pull it off.
@@andrethomas7096 Haley Reinhart scats on the cover Postmodern Jukebox cover of Radiohead's Creep. It comes across effortless. I can't remember if Ella Fitzgerald scats in the version of Mack the Knife where she forgot the lyrics.

This song was huge in 99. Just absolutely massive worldwide. Cannot explain how big it was, it was a crossover song so people who never listened to even rock loved this song. You probably heard it somewhere commercially, maybe even a shop played it.
I was randomly watching some music reactions to Korn over many different channels and you two are the only ones that inspired me to comment and watch more than one reaction video, you're just coming at it so thoughtful and appreciative of all aspects of the song and it's place and meaning in the timeline of musical history. Thank you.
Someone in high school was once shocked that I could do the vocals to twist perfectly (probably not now, 20+ years later.) gotta love Jon Davis’ scats.
Jonathan Davis is known for his beatboxing/scatting during songs as well as hiss unique voice and the bands original sound, I would absolutely love it if you guys reacted to more KoRn ❤️
This band, oh this band .... they came out with their sound in 1993 and gave birth to the Nu-metal scene. The lyrics come from the wounded soul of the singer, bless you Jonathan Davis, you deserve a happy life.
Back when they were touring for this album, when they got to the breakdown (scat) and Johnathan screamed GO! The entire floor erupted into the a giant mosh pit. Whether you wanted to be in it or not. It was epic!
I saw them open for the Black Sabbath reunion when they first dropped chutes and ladders and people were ripping the seats out at the stadium for this opening act it was sick
Korn was a flourishing band that had a real groove to their music, and including Ice cube in children of the Korn was HUGE remember? Also getting DUB C to dance in their music video "got the life" was DOPE
Family values tour in 99 (I think) had Korn, ice cube, limp bizkit, orgy and ramstien. They played this song live with everyone on stage... F'n awesome!
Korn connected with thousands of kids and helped them through some really hard times. I have heard stories about kids moving away from suicide and striving to live on through their torment/pain. I know I listened to them when I was in high school and I think they helped me too from being overwhelmed from being bullied and an abusive mom.
I saw Korn in 1995 at a tiny club in Berkeley - at that time, there was nothing that sounded even remotely similar to them. It was very cool to see a band that was so different. The whole band was exploring new territory. The vocal style is instantly recognizable. They were at the forefront of popularizing drop-tuned, 7-string guitars. The bass is drop-tuned as well, which makes the strings clack against the neck, which is a major part of their sound. Also their drummer using an 808 in rock/metal definitely turned some heads.
Lex you are a metal head in your core i swear. I feel like that part of the song you guys were saying is beat boxing. I always thought it was more of scating like the old blues musions.
Ok, I just said don’t be heady and just feel it, but then Lex just dropped an interpretation of the video I’d never considered, and I was obsessed with this band for years. So damn. Respect!
Oh my god, Lex I love you! You have just the best energy! I love how you just really get into the metal genre! There is so many sub genres with so many bands! I can't wait to see what all y'all listen to and how you like it! I'm still watching y'alls videos so if y'all haven't done Nine Inch Nails song Closer, that's a good one. You have to do the actual video. I'll go ahead and tell you...it's weird and explicit.
I remember when I seen Korn with Texas Hippie Coalition in Lubbock, Texas at the Lone Star Amphitheater on the Jägermeister tour! It was crazy! People hanging from the speakers on the rafters on the ceiling and all!
Her breakdown of the video was so perfect and I've watched and listened to it a million times but never really looked at it that way, from childhood to the adulthood and how were innocent as children
Looooved this album growing up. And Lex's excitement when the singer does his tribalistic Korn thing was hilarious! Thanks for the memories, it's been a while!
Falling Away From Me is one of my favorite Korn songs, and the video also happens to continue right from the end of Freak On A Leash (in terms of the music video). Definitely recommend it, all love ❤️
I wish I would have found this Channel along time ago. This gonna be a long rest of the weekend trying to play catch up. Love the channel. Anything from Korn is gonna be good.
I love that yall are getting into Korn they are one of my favorites, hope yall do more. It's cool to see a first time reaction to a band I loved for a long time
I love y'all so much! Crazy how I can understand BOTH views, no matter how different you two might be (and depending on the artist you're listening to, it can be VERY different, lol). But as a person that wanders through music and listens to most all genres, I really appreciate your ability to appreciate many forms of music. I watch a few reaction channels, but I have camped out on y'all's channel for a minute! I ain't goin' anywhere else, either.
Lex your reaction was AMAZING!!! The hairstyle of Brian “Head” Welch was iconic and his story is heart touching (there’s a documentary of his struggles and finding his way back)!
I wish more people were like the two of you . Understanding and respectful towards music genres that you don't Typically listen to. And you understood korn ! Keep making videos !
This band is exceptional I have hung with them, played with them. The Lead Singer Jonathan and I are good friends. But when you want to see a band, this is the band you want to see. their act is so tight that every jump on every note on every song. They are so well-rehearsed that they leave their feet at the same time and land at the same time without ever missing a beat or a note. I have to tell you it's hard to play with them even when we just hang out for fun they are just so in tune with each other and my style of play is more like Slash so it works but trying to get into their Rythm is very tough.
Also "got the Life" is a must....its the first single from that album.....when they released Follow the Leader back in 98 Korn was the first band in the scene to go platinum no1 on billboard Charts and straight mainstream....after that nu-metal became a world wide trend that ruled the charts
You guys are my new favorite reaction Channel. You are the first young people that actually get into lyrical meanings that I’ve come across. Most of the time it’s like they listen, say “that sounded great, man. Hit like and subscribe if you enjoyed watching me do nothing but listen to a song.” Anytime there is lyrical dissection it’s always some old dude. Which I don’t have a problem with, cuz I watch the hell out of Key of Geebz. Dude’s an old composer, and his channel is wonderful. But I think it’s great that you guys are so into the lyrical meaning, and evaluate the messages in the songs. And I love how Lex gets so into it. She’s straight up vibing. 😂😂 I been watching a lot of your tool reactions and you guys did surprising well in analyzing their lyrical content. Most people our age don’t understand anything Maynard says. I’d love to see how you guys like Metalcore tho. If you’re interested, I’ve got a few bands for you to check out. Keep doing what you’re doing guys. I’m loving your reactions.
Y'all have to react to the queen of the damned soundtrack. It's amazing and Jonathan Davis the lead singer of Korn helped make majority of the songs that is performed throughout the movie like, forsaken, redeemer, not meant to be and so many more and I think y'all love it cause he also made those songs with Chester Bennington of Linkin park (R.I.P.), David Draiman of disturbed and Marilyn Manson and many more.
Just brought back so much emotion. Korn, System of a down, slayer and slipknot mixed in with some sublime all got me through jr high and high school. They would just make everything around me not matter.
I'm not gonna lie. I've listened to this song probably thousands of times since it came out. I always thought the line was "You and I weren't meant to be a cheap f- for me to lay." meaning that he thought they were more, but it turned out they weren't. I learned just now that it's the opposite. "You and I were meant to be a cheap f- for me to lay" which I now assume means he caught feelings. The following refrain of "Something takes a part of me", leads me to believe the feeling is not mutual. Wow. Amazing how you can hear a song for 22 years and still pick up new things from it.
Korn - Clown Korn - Ball Tongue Korn - Cameltosis Korn - Kick the P.A. Korn - Reclaim My Place Korn - Wake Up Korn - Make Me Bad Korn - Got the Life Korn - Thoughtless Korn - Wicked ft. Chino of Deftones
Korn was so different back in the day when they hit. True pioneers. The 7 string guitar riffs were so good. It was a different way to approach the guitar and arrange songs.
OMG, such a great reaction....again. The expressions, the headbanging, Lex´s imitation of Jonathan, the bacteria one liner, your take on the lyrics......I can´t even pinpoint what I liked more in the video cause all of it was so fun and enjoyable! You made my morning with this timeless classic back when Korn ruled the world! The best follow to this has got to be "Falling Away From Me"! Peace and keep up the great videos.
So this is my new favorite reaction page. You are both charming and insightful and I love that you take an intellectual approach to how you analyze and experience this music. I think you are going to go far here and I’ll be watching. Thanks!

I’ve seen Korn live a dozen times. They put on a insane show! Jonathan Davis is so understanding as a rock vocalist. So distinctive and powerful.
Her breakdown of the video was so perfect and I've watched and listened to it a million times but never really looked at it that way, from childhood to the adulthood and how were innocent as children
My favorite band! Great reaction!! Here to stay, Get up, Cold, Narcissistic cannibal, got the life up, etc......up next!!
Them,Disturbed, and trust company was my first concert ever! Being in the pit when they played this song was insane!Been obsessed ever since!
Pop Sux tour wasn't it? Saw the same lineup in Manchester NH
System of the down-Chop Suey. is another hard rock song that you’d like!!
Looooved this album growing up. And Lex's excitement when the singer does his tribalistic Korn thing was hilarious! Thanks for the memories, it's been a while!
Next song from Korn, Blind Live from Woodstock. Insane energy and crowd is insane
Yes!!!!
Best live concert ever, they must watch it
Good call
It was amazing to see that live
This song will never get old. Great reaction guys 🙋🏻♀️🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼💜🇨🇦
Falling Away From Me is one of my favorite Korn songs, and the video also happens to continue right from the end of Freak On A Leash (in terms of the music video). Definitely recommend it, all love ❤️
"If bacteria could beatbox", I totally get it. That bit is contagious, you can't avoid to be consumed and become part of it.
Lex really is a metal head, and I’m here for it. Keep the Tool, Metallica, Korn etc. reacts coming
Coming Undone is one of my favorites ❤️
I think Y'all will enjoy it 🙂
Love watching you both ☺️
(Brightens my Day ) 👍🌞
"If bacteria could beat box" - Lex
"You're weird" - Brad
Lmao! Great reaction!
I wish I would have found this Channel along time ago. This gonna be a long rest of the weekend trying to play catch up. Love the channel. Anything from Korn is gonna be good.
I love that yall are getting into Korn they are one of my favorites, hope yall do more. It's cool to see a first time reaction to a band I loved for a long time
I love y'all so much! Crazy how I can understand BOTH views, no matter how different you two might be (and depending on the artist you're listening to, it can be VERY different, lol). But as a person that wanders through music and listens to most all genres, I really appreciate your ability to appreciate many forms of music. I watch a few reaction channels, but I have camped out on y'all's channel for a minute! I ain't goin' anywhere else, either.
Lex your reaction was AMAZING!!! The hairstyle of Brian “Head” Welch was iconic and his story is heart touching (there’s a documentary of his struggles and finding his way back)!
😂 i freaking love how jumpy and dancy she is when she listens to rock. Super cute lol
My suggestion for you is TOOL Sober live version guys, trust me you won't regret it. I would really like to see your reaction to that masterpiece ^^
I wish more people were like the two of you . Understanding and respectful towards music genres that you don't Typically listen to. And you understood korn ! Keep making videos !
Falling Away From Me is a song that Freak on a Leash leads into. Id reocmmend it next.
Make me bad is one bad ass song possibly my favorite they should do it next
Both of these songs
This band is exceptional I have hung with them, played with them. The Lead Singer Jonathan and I are good friends. But when you want to see a band, this is the band you want to see. their act is so tight that every jump on every note on every song. They are so well-rehearsed that they leave their feet at the same time and land at the same time without ever missing a beat or a note. I have to tell you it's hard to play with them even when we just hang out for fun they are just so in tune with each other and my style of play is more like Slash so it works but trying to get into their Rythm is very tough.
I absolutely love watching her reactions to heavy metal music. She makes it so fun to watch you guys.
gotta say I love seeing the awakening of a metal head. I feel the same thing every time I listen to this song. this band... damn.
Also "got the Life" is a must....its the first single from that album.....when they released Follow the Leader back in 98 Korn was the first band in the scene to go platinum no1 on billboard Charts and straight mainstream....after that nu-metal became a world wide trend that ruled the charts
You guys are my new favorite reaction Channel. You are the first young people that actually get into lyrical meanings that I’ve come across. Most of the time it’s like they listen, say “that sounded great, man. Hit like and subscribe if you enjoyed watching me do nothing but listen to a song.” Anytime there is lyrical dissection it’s always some old dude. Which I don’t have a problem with, cuz I watch the hell out of Key of Geebz. Dude’s an old composer, and his channel is wonderful. But I think it’s great that you guys are so into the lyrical meaning, and evaluate the messages in the songs. And I love how Lex gets so into it. She’s straight up vibing. 😂😂 I been watching a lot of your tool reactions and you guys did surprising well in analyzing their lyrical content. Most people our age don’t understand anything Maynard says. I’d love to see how you guys like Metalcore tho. If you’re interested, I’ve got a few bands for you to check out. Keep doing what you’re doing guys. I’m loving your reactions.
Y'all have to react to the queen of the damned soundtrack. It's amazing and Jonathan Davis the lead singer of Korn helped make majority of the songs that is performed throughout the movie like, forsaken, redeemer, not meant to be and so many more and I think y'all love it cause he also made those songs with Chester Bennington of Linkin park (R.I.P.), David Draiman of disturbed and Marilyn Manson and many more.
Probably one of the best soundtracks to me.
Just brought back so much emotion. Korn, System of a down, slayer and slipknot mixed in with some sublime all got me through jr high and high school. They would just make everything around me not matter.
Lex your reaction to the beatbox part was priceless. growing up with Korn seeing that look on your face as you experienced it was everything.
I'm not gonna lie. I've listened to this song probably thousands of times since it came out. I always thought the line was "You and I weren't meant to be a cheap f- for me to lay." meaning that he thought they were more, but it turned out they weren't. I learned just now that it's the opposite. "You and I were meant to be a cheap f- for me to lay" which I now assume means he caught feelings. The following refrain of "Something takes a part of me", leads me to believe the feeling is not mutual.
Wow. Amazing how you can hear a song for 22 years and still pick up new things from it.
I really want to see your guys reaction to Shoots and ladders by Korn because it’s such a unique song. Great breakdown of the song btw.
8:40 Love it, She knows the happiness it feels to just not care
brad has the WORST timing for pauses LOL - right when the drop hits he kills the mood
5:35 is where it's at
"Is that beatboxing?"
No, that's just Jonathan Davis-ing. 😂
Korn was my favorite band in Highschool. I graduated in 2000. Use to blast them so loud in my car.
Since Lex likes his odd voice, yall should listen to Smashing Pumpkins either "zero" or "tonight tonight".
Favorite reaction from yalls channel so far. Look forward to seeing more. Thanks
Korn - Clown

Korn was so different back in the day when they hit. True pioneers. The 7 string guitar riffs were so good. It was a different way to approach the guitar and arrange songs.
OMG, such a great reaction....again. The expressions, the headbanging, Lex´s imitation of Jonathan, the bacteria one liner, your take on the lyrics......I can´t even pinpoint what I liked more in the video cause all of it was so fun and enjoyable! You made my morning with this timeless classic back when Korn ruled the world! The best follow to this has got to be "Falling Away From Me"! Peace and keep up the great videos.
So this is my new favorite reaction page. You are both charming and insightful and I love that you take an intellectual approach to how you analyze and experience this music. I think you are going to go far here and I’ll be watching. Thanks!
My favorite too
