Her “getting hit” by a car was the distraction for them to rob the gem from the safe across the street. I grew up listening to Hoobastank after seeing them and Hinder open for Nickelback. Great bands!
I started listening to Hoobastank when I was 21. I still occasionally listen to them at 42. The Reason was a song I played all the time in the mid 2000s. Good song by an underrated band.
wow middle school vibes....still my favorite song to this day! The music video for Same Direction is a follow up to The Reason and completes the story. Brilliant stuff.
This song this band, so much nostalgia!! I remember coming home from school with my cousins and just hanging out listening to this band. Now that one of us died a couple of years ago she was only 26 🥺 this song hits so different
It's one of my favorite music videos ever the whole thing was staged. They were all working together to Rob the pawn shop. There's no context but they probably pawned the gem and just stole it back and they can pawn it again at a different shop and rinse and repeat.
Hello. Hoobastank are among my favorite bands. I recommend you to listen to "Escape", "Out Of Control", "Same Direction" and "Sing What You Can't Say". These are some of their songs that I think are among the best.
Good taste and the fact you mention the song Sing What You Can't Say means you have digged into their discography, because that specific song isn't one of their most acclaimed yet it is one of many hidden jewels they have
Nostalgic asf oh my, if u like an incredible voice u gotta listen to Lifehouse,I feel like everyone has heard their song "You and Me" but maybe not so...
I'm so glad you reacted to this! This band isn't the best in the world but they have some songs that are a must if you're into rock/grunge music, you may like quite a few of their songs. Doug Robb has been improving his voice throughout the years and right now he sounds quite good. My personal recommendations are Can You Save Me, First Of Me, The Fallen, Sing What You Can't Say, More Beautiful and I Don't Think I Love You, a mix of absolute bangers and beautiful ballads
what do you not understand about the video??? the guy run over the chick to distract the shopowner or whoever he was and then the other guys broke in through back door, rob the shop and when were they done she stand up and left with the guy on bike. and in the end of the video the shopowner realized what has happened. ANYWAY you need to look on the part 2 of this story and that is video to song "SAME DIRECTION".. it'll make more sense, i promise...and it's also better song :)
I love Hoobastank. If you get a chance, you could try The Letter with Vanessa Amorosi, it’s one of my favourites. The video clip was a heist, and the girl was their distraction.
As others have said the video was about a scam. The girl and the car that "hit" her were both in on it. They staged a fake accident. The commotion drew the jewelry store owner out of his shop, leaving it open for the others to rob him blind. What does it have to do with the song? Absolutely nothing!
It always seems like you focus on the video more than the lyrics of the songs you react to. When you combine both only then you'll understand what the artist is trying to say through their music.
I think the video distracted from the song. She got so caught up in the visuals, then the lyrics of the song got twisted. Great song, great lyrics. Makes me think of Sister Hazel...trying to remember that song.
Hi Ellie, love your content, and really love to see you react to Hoobastank, they've been in my top list since 2002 or so... And (not sure if it was on purpose) it was fun to see you wear the infinity sign in your necklace as Hoobastanks symbol is just that :)
This brings me back to middle school. You should check out the band Blindside since you like this one. They have a similar sound and they made music in the early 2000s.
Great reaction!! I know you have talked about reacting to an our last night original before, and if or when you do i think you would like one of their new songs called uninstall. thanks again for this amazing reaction.❤
You guys don't get it. The girl getting hit by the car was planned as a disstraction so the guys could go steal the jewel. And when it was done, she got up and got on the bike and rode away. Un- hurt.
Oh man Hoobastank was one of my three favourite bands in High School with Linkin Park and The Rasmus. If you want to react to more Hoobastank you should react to Remember Me, Out of Control, Pieces and/or Crawling in the Dark. Great reaction, glad you liked the song and I agree the music video didn't really fit with the tone of the song but it was the early 2000's so you kind of had to be there to get it lmao.
@@doualadaliso9676 Loved Good Charlotte as well, typically only a handful of songs though comparatively to Hoobastank, LP and The Rasmus where I liked 90+% of their stuff.
Try the following... Transvision Vamp - I want your love Queen - Seven Seas of Rye Queen - Fat Bottom Girls/Bicycle Race Aerosmith - love in an elevator Alice Cooper - Poison Heart - Alone 4 non blondes - what's up Peter Gabriel - Salisbury Hill Deacon Blue - Twist and Shout The Beautiful South - Prettiest Eyes You'll have fun. Honest
Maybe it's time for you to get a little deeper in your musical journey. Please react to Nightwish "Ghost Love Score" live at Wacken 2013. The lead singer Floor Jansen is considered to be the best overall singer around today. Watch your viewing figures go crazy. You will then be recommended to react to Epica, Within Temptation, The Gathering, Unleash the Archers and many more. The singers in the symphonic metal bands blow most other mainstream singers out of the water.
Can you please check out Isak Danielson and his songs? (Power, Broken, Fifty Ways, Good Things Come To Those Who Wait etc.) He’s a swedish artist and his songs are just AMAZING.
I'd disagree that this is a sad song, it's a song of self affirmation if anything :P It's an "I'm sorry I'm a fuckup, but you make me a better person" kinda deal. Hard agree on it being a good listen post breakup though, to remind you that you can still find somebody to give you "the reason" ;)
A message to the future Generations..Dont let this masterpiece song die...
I second this notion
meh
Yes
Grew up listening to this. So many memories associated to songs like this one
Her “getting hit” by a car was the distraction for them to rob the gem from the safe across the street. I grew up listening to Hoobastank after seeing them and Hinder open for Nickelback. Great bands!
The nostalgia as a 90s baby growing up with this song being on a constant rotation in the car lol
Wow you pretty 😘😁
I started listening to Hoobastank when I was 21. I still occasionally listen to them at 42. The Reason was a song I played all the time in the mid 2000s. Good song by an underrated band.
It's hard to believe that a group that's been around for 28 years hasn't been heard of by people before
FACTS
Been listening since they came out 💯
One of the best songs of all time! I'm a 90s baby and this song used to play all the time back in the day on MTV and VH1!!
wow middle school vibes....still my favorite song to this day! The music video for Same Direction is a follow up to The Reason and completes the story. Brilliant stuff.
All people need to listen to this song at least once in their life.
This song this band, so much nostalgia!! I remember coming home from school with my cousins and just hanging out listening to this band. Now that one of us died a couple of years ago she was only 26 🥺 this song hits so different
love this song I heard it allot over the radio on 95.1

Good song, but in my opinion a couple of their better songs are Crawling in the Dark and Outta Control.
IT'S A BIG IMPOSSIBLE that you didn't heard this song! Lol. Me as an asian from the Philippines even know this song and you're prolly older than me.
Nostalgic asf oh my, if u like an incredible voice u gotta listen to Lifehouse,I feel like everyone has heard their song "You and Me" but maybe not so...

What are the other songs than this that are good?
@ About You, Out Of Control, The Letter, Stay With Me, Unaffected, Disappear, No Direction and Crawling In The Dark
Don't even class these guys in grunge EVER!!!
@@mikeblanchard7579 Most of their albums are grunge rock :v
@@semu8030 lol clearly you don't know what grunge is
The "reason" you never heard of Hoobastank is because you just listened to a montage of their biggest hit :)
what do you not understand about the video??? the guy run over the chick to distract the shopowner or whoever he was and then the other guys broke in through back door, rob the shop and when were they done she stand up and left with the guy on bike. and in the end of the video the shopowner realized what has happened.

The Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin pleasee, I wonder how you would like it, it is one of my fav great song
2nd that! :)
I love Hoobastank. If you get a chance, you could try The Letter with Vanessa Amorosi, it’s one of my favourites. The video clip was a heist, and the girl was their distraction.
This song is such a classic lol one of my favs
Love this song beautiful vocals in it
Love this song to death. My biggest guilty pleasure song.
Hoobastank is soooo underrated.
i'll take this as a sign to not give up and keep looking for "the reason for me"
As others have said the video was about a scam. The girl and the car that "hit" her were both in on it. They staged a fake accident. The commotion drew the jewelry store owner out of his shop, leaving it open for the others to rob him blind. What does it have to do with the song? Absolutely nothing!
What a memory, listen to it alot as a teenager
It always seems like you focus on the video more than the lyrics of the songs you react to. When you combine both only then you'll understand what the artist is trying to say through their music.
If you haven't heard the band called "Daughtry" I hope you make a reaction of it 😌
Great song, glad you finally heard it :D
This song was being played on the radio all the around 2004, surprised you haven't heard it before
I was 5 years old in 2004😂
@@EllieroseReacts ohh no worries, I was 16 and working in Burger King over the summer holidays after finishing my GCSEs- brings back memories
This is such a great song one of my favorites
I could watch u react to silence🤣🤣🤣ur a beautiful soul♥️♥️♥️thank u for existing ♥️♥️♥️♥️
How you’ve never heard this is crazy 🤯🤯🤯
You should react to “One” by The Birthday Massacre. It’s a beautiful song with no screaming. The singer is beautiful.
react to "hoobastank - same direction";
this is the second part of this video ("the reason").
This song is bittersweet to listen to, years ago had a bad breakup with my highschool girlfriend and sent this song to her when we ended it. 💔
I think the video distracted from the song. She got so caught up in the visuals, then the lyrics of the song got twisted. Great song, great lyrics. Makes me think of Sister Hazel...trying to remember that song.
3:10 is my favorite part 🥹
Gotta check out “Crawling In The Dark” by them
.... don't let this die
I love this song. Thank u.
I'd recommend checking out their songs crawling in the dark, out of controll and connected aswell. Fantastic songsm
Hi Ellie, love your content, and really love to see you react to Hoobastank, they've been in my top list since 2002 or so... And (not sure if it was on purpose) it was fun to see you wear the infinity sign in your necklace as Hoobastanks symbol is just that :)
Imo. One of the greatest jams ever
Would a been a perfect song for the ending of "Drive"
My grandma loved this song!
This brings me back to middle school. You should check out the band Blindside since you like this one. They have a similar sound and they made music in the early 2000s.

Hey love u look sweet today. Good day i think for you. Love from Poland 🥰
Great Reaction Video.....
Nice to see People expand their exposure to Music......
Whenever I hear this song I say “and I want you to knowwwwww I found the weeezeonnn”
You guys don't get it. The girl getting hit by the car was planned as a disstraction so the guys could go steal the jewel. And when it was done, she got up and got on the bike and rode away. Un- hurt.
Ellierose you are awesome, and this is a good song it's one of my fav songs
React to BabyMetal - gimme chocolate please 🙏🏽 aguante yui ✨
Surprised she didn't catch what was actually happening 😂😂 it was a distraction to steal the red gem
I once got into an Emmy's after-party by pretending to be the drummer from Hoobastank.
I still love this long after all these years. The song has nothing to do with the video. A lot of people confuse the two
I find it hard to believe you haven’t heard this
Oh man Hoobastank was one of my three favourite bands in High School with Linkin Park and The Rasmus. If you want to react to more Hoobastank you should react to Remember Me, Out of Control, Pieces and/or Crawling in the Dark.

how about Good Charlotte? I realise they received bad rep back then, but Young and Hopeless album is my favorite too along with Hybrid Theory and such
@@doualadaliso9676 Loved Good Charlotte as well, typically only a handful of songs though comparatively to Hoobastank, LP and The Rasmus where I liked 90+% of their stuff.
Love when you smile 😁
One of my favourite song
The music video is them pulling a heist on that store. The girl and the car driver were in on it
Bring me the horizons new song came out called “Strangers” it is so good you just have to react to it!!!
I find it funny how these guys made the song Fist Bump for the game Sonic Forces 😂
Love the song great vid. No accident it's a fake to rob the jewelry store
There first single or song I ever hear was "crawling in the dark" have a nice day cutie.
Early 2000s Rock...ah...the good old days..
Its a robbery plan music video
Its pre plan that girl fell down like she gets hurt
Check "dial tone catch your breath"
Love this song 🎵
Sending love💕 from the Philippines
I recommend Paramore - Hard times :)
The MV literally has nothing to do with song. This was their one hit wonder song, so says I.
Good song
This song it's legend.
Crawling In the dark is a must lisren!
Crawling in the dark next
Seems like the type of girl who would sleep with an abusive guy and
not get why he doesn't love her back .
This is an awesome song
Thanks Ellie nostalgic

I'd disagree that this is a sad song, it's a song of self affirmation if anything :P
It's an "I'm sorry I'm a fuckup, but you make me a better person" kinda deal.
