    In many of Skillet's live performances, they open with some awesome strings. I believe they use the same guys each time, but they always sound awesome and rock out the whole time.

    Seth acutally has so much solo techniques in his arsenal, unfortunately he doesnt really get to show off, he has impressing sweep and tapping, as well as pinch harmonics,he shows of in vids, very underrated guitarist.
    They have said seth gets to be a bit free on this new album coming out in jan 2022, so im excited to hear his riffs and solos

      Seth and Korey are the unsung heroes of Skillet. John and Jen get all the attention, but without Seth's guitar and Korey pretty much doing EVERYTHING they would be lost.

      Seth is never going to get the credit he deserves of being a great guitar player simply because he is in Skillet. Of course, we all love Skillet, but the public slaps the “Christian Band” label on them and somehow that discounts everything they do. Even Jen, who everyone loves, will never be fully accredited for her talent for the same reasons. Without question, Skillet is one of the great rock/metal bands, but will never get listed in anyone’s top countdown.

      Looking forward to seeing/hearing more of Seth's guitar rifts!
      Totally agree, about Seth and Korey, and Korey even more so gets overlooked. She does more than anyone on the band. But even I have to admit, I love Jen, and fell in love with her and Skillet because of her harmonies with John, and their music/sound ... it's so good!

    This song contends for top five for sure. So glad to see you get into these guys as much as you have. I’ve watched a ton of Skillet reactions and yours are the best. They’re so good musically and you’re great at pointing out everything they do. I’ve even grown to like a few songs more because of little things that you were able to explain that I just never picked up on before so thank you.
    But there’s still a ton of Skillet songs for you to get to😜 so keep em coming🤘🏼

    Not Gonna Die was a good song when I first listened to it.
    Then I listened to it again and it didn’t hit with me.
    For a few months, I didn’t really like it.
    Now?
    2nd best song of Rise EASILY.
    Not Gonna Die is betting an 8.7/10 for me. Hah! Just like you!
    The reason I didn’t like this song before was the lack of rock. Now hearing it again, that solo is freaking amazing! And the opening guitar, for a split second going up in pitch, was really really neat. Not Gonna Die’s instrumental is good. Ok? Really good!
    Vocally. Just like you said at 16:03 - 16:08, NGD is the vocal equivalent of literal heaven. Jen being in this song is easily the best part about it. Speaking of, my favorite all time moment of this song was at the end with Jen. John’s powerful leading voice, especially in the chorus, makes you feel alive. ALIVE. John is good. Jen is good. ( I will talk about my favorite part of the song in a minit. John + Jen? For me, it’s like Nutella and Toast. The chorus.. the chorus of Not Gonna Die is so powerful and emotionally uplifting. Not just that. They do a repeat of the line from the second verse, except this time with Jen. And they emphasis on the last three words, separating them and saying each with power. That was EPIC! Now, my favorite part of the song. Jen’s last vocal performance, saying the title of the song with John a total of 5 times. Her last saying, at 12:28 , is SO… SO EVERYTHING! SO POWERFUL, SO ANGELIC, SO BEAUTIFULLY IMPRESSIVE, SO HIGH FOR JEN! This song, just because of that, is in my opinion, the vocal of Skillet.
    What does that mean? I feel like this song, is the best song from Skillet, from a vocal standpoint.
    I know I said the reason BFTD was my number three Skillet song was for the vocals, but that song was lacking in Jen. John himslef in BFTD is nothing but sheer power, but John and Jen make a song angelic, harmonic, and so god dam beautiful.
    Final score. 8.7/10. I have spoken! 🔨🔨🔨
    Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. The definition of this song is beautiful.

    The song was off of the album Rise from 2013. So you pretty much nailed it. Surprised you have not heard this one before; it's like one of the top 10 Skillet songs, popularity-wise. Great reaction; glad you were pleased with it. I love this song! 😁 They did have a violin player named Jonathan Chu at this time, so the strings are most likely real.
    Random question: How often do you listen to Skillet, outside of reactions? Never, every once in a while, sometimes, a bit, etc. Just wondering! 🙃

    Also, I love your videos. They are amazing. I have watched a few of them. I love Skillet. If you could do a video on Psycho In My Head live video. It is by Skillet.

    Actually, this song is from their album Rise, the first one with Seth. As for the strings, you could be right, but I wouldn't be overly surprised if the strings are real. They have a cellist and had a violinist. Seth's guitar solos give me chills 'cause he's so absolutely amazing. I caught that smile on your face when Jen's vocals--you really seem to love her. For good reason, too, because she's amazing. I really love your reviews because watching them is like an education because of how much you know about music.

  • @joetay29

    Jonathan Chu (violin) and Tate Olsen (cello), who toured regularly with Skillet, both recorded for this album (Rise) and possibly other albums. I believe Olsen still tours with them? I am not sure how they manage this song in concert without Chu. They may just use live cello alone or with violin track. The strings at the intro of recording seem altered, but otherwise in the rest of the song sound authentic. I suspect Korey wrote these string parts, but I don’t know for sure.

    But I just don't have that option. So please, you, or any patron reading this, please request a reaction to the song "Would it matter". It's a very important song for me and I would like David to rate it how he feels about it. Thank you very much.
