The Rev wrote this song from a dream he had and he arranged and wrote all of the music himself. He also has one of the best backing vocals in this song.
Its better that people see the live version before the music video so they know what they're getting into, cause yall have scared off loads of people from reacting to a7x by recommending this song
I think she would’ve reacted to the music better if she didn’t have the lyrics up in this version. She was so distracted by trying to figure out the story lol
"Cause I really always knew that my little crime would be cold, that's why I got a heater for your thighs." That lyric has lived rent free in my head for over a decade lol. It's so messed up.
Man, I used to blare this song in my little Toyota Corolla. That part IS so catchy. I also used to like PaPa Roach- I almost told you that I loved you.
this video shows just how incredibly amazing of a musician the rev was, he sung a difficult vocal line WHILE playing the drums. And i didnt even hear a single mistake
The best masterpiece ever made, this is a love story, with necrophilia, killing, heart ripping, the best melody ever made, and on top off that we get Shadows and Rev singing together. Rev was such a good song writer, this song as such a deep meaning, it’s funny like everyone when listens to it for the first time gets shocked, and when you listen to it carefully you will see the true meaning of the song.
Yeah, it didn't feel as evil as I heard it the first time, nor when I watch the official music animation for it for the second time. It dawned on me at the third time, it's a messed up yet beautiful song honestly.
This song was written by their old drummer, The Rev (passed away December 2009) because the band asked him to make something absolutely nuts for the album they were working on. In turn, he came up with a song where a guy kills his girlfriend for denying his marriage proposal because he is obsessed with her, then she comes back from the dead to kill him. In hell he begs for forgiveness and she gives it to him and then they live happily ever after as a married zombie couple. The song itself, although is purely meant to tell a wicked story, is basically a love song, a really dark love song.. I think that "A Little Piece Of Heaven" is like "Bohemian Rhapsody" It’s unique masterpiece of art and it takes time to be totally appreciated or understood for some people.
This song was supposed to be a joke song they made for halloween, but turns out to be one of the a7x's masterpiece, they had so much fun recording this song. Also, the music video for this song slap, you must watch it!
This song was all Rev. He wrote the whole thing, drumming is amazing as always, and then does the insane backing vocals playing the woman's part. And this crazy multi part song was all executed flawlessly . . . live. Amazing performance.
@rayactions your face of realisation to what Syn was doing at 10:20 absolutely killed me especially after he did it every time they sang that line 😂😂🤣🤣
As a fan since 06 Missing the Rev's voice and drumming one of the best heavy metal drummers of the mid to late 2000s funky jazz and ska influenced drumming
I loved how in the live version at 7:16 he changes the lyrics from “I know it’s not your time” to “yes I know it’s time to die “ showing that he knows she’s gotta kill him ! Love it !!!!
It's so nice to see someone who can accept the song for what it is, go on a ride, and enjoy the performance, and not get all outraged and pearl-clutchy, like a certain other creator I've seen. Great video! Kudos!
Is there necrophilia in this song?! I think there's necrophilia in this song! The unmitigated gall! How dare they! I can't believe this! Unbelievable!!! 😤😤😤
When I listen Avenged Sevenfold. I feel like I traveling in their world that they created. Every albums of this band, It's like they create a new world. Their music tried to bring me into the world they created and their voice try to explain about that world. I really love this band so much.
Avenged Sevenfold did a breakdown video on this song that went over a lot of the writing and production process for the song too. It is on their RUclips channel and well worth the time to watch it for anyone interested.
I like how you dive into this an innocent girl, and then gave the proper reaction to the theme of the song 😂 Yes the theme of this "love song" is wicked and twisted, but it's so fun as a song, and this is a long time anticipation since you reacted to this concert for the first time, this closing song for this concert has never been played with this amount of energy and fun like this one concert, clearly why many people agreed that this is to this day, their best performance ever, and a tip for our beloved drummer, The Rev ❤
It’s a love story… a dark and twisted love story mixed in with murder, cannibalism, necrophilia, zombies, a crashed wedding and a massacre. It’s about a love so strong that not even death could keep them apart.
8:36 you can see on your face what we all feel when we see this live video how heart broken we all are the rev is gone we know your heartbreak 💔 the same we are
The rev actually wrote/composed this entire song. And directed most parts and indicated how he wanted it to be. Have a look at the making of this when you get time @Rayactions
One of my favorite reactions on the internet @ 2:00 The confusion, followed by the "WTF" face, followed by the "wait wait wait ..." The slow realization of Necrophilia.I don't know why, but I laugh my ass off every time.
when you first realize what this song is about you listen to the lyrics very differently. Such a massive song and The Rev is the reason i started drumming many many years ago. Such an amazing drummer, composer, song writer. He was just the best and im sad i never got to see him play live.
I’ve heard this described as one of the greatest love stories of modern time. A7X has a video where they breakdown this song and how it came about to be. Its a cool story. The Rev wrote a good amount of it.
This song was written by the late REV. This is one of The REV's best works Masterpiece. And every time I hear REV's voice, I always get goosebumps and of course really miss REV . He is a genius and great drummer in creating A7X songs. I love a7x at heart. Must Look Into Their Song Seized the Day Powerful Song.. Thanks for responding My Fans A7X. WeLoveYouJimmyFoREVer❤️
I think youre my fav reactor lol :)) the live version is definitely sooooo much fun and amazing, but the video and official audio of this is probably my favorite song of all time 😂
I didn't even realize as a teen listening to this stuff, the uniqueness and crazy genre-bending energy is what had me hooked on em. I just figured I was a huge fan of metal since i grew up on stuff like Metallica, but a7x always had a way of hitting different for me story is a lot easier to pick up with the video but you got most of it. at the end they got married in the afterlife and went on a rampage in the living world, killing everyone for their "wedding". very wholesome stuff 😄
This song is music pure musical theater! Love it! Their playful performance is manically fantastic! And on a side note, I've gone down a Rayactions rabbit hole and you've earned a fan! 🤣
For sure, this is one of the best songs i've ever heard... The vocals, the music, the live scene... It's so perfect I really enjoy this video and how you describe what a lot of people thinks about this great band and this song, we all see that you we're really enjoying the concert haha
Finally, a reaction to this song that doesn’t include the music video. Everyone who has reacted to this song, has reacted to the music video, and they end up focusing on the music video more than the song itself.
This song is a masterpiece and one of my fav songs from a7x & the music video is so good. I would like to see Hail to the king - live rock am ring 2018. I was there and it was amazing & the flames where so big :D & ofc Parkway Drive live at wacken
I spent years singing this song without knowing the exact lyrics and loving it. I said the same amount of "wait" (or even more) when I saw the lyrics on Spotify/Shazam. I told my sister, who loved the song too and also didn't know its content. I have to pause the video to comment this, because I was vocally answering your reaction. Now, back to the video.
This is one of their classic songs that was only added to the album after the label heard it and told the band they'd be crazy not to include it. It was written by the Rev and the demo version featured him on all instruments.
Like the others have said, you'll understand the song way better when you watch the music video. It helps you understand a lot of the crazy lyrics. Definitely check it out
I had a feeling since you delved only a bit into A7X's catalogue that this song will eventually come up and first time reactions to this song is always golden haha. The Rev is a genius song writer and i wouldn't personally take this song's lyrics as black and white cause yes the themes behind it are well dark, depraved etc, but Jimmy (at least to me) is a master at writing metaphors and deeper meaning and at least from my take away from this song is that, Love is untouchable, when two hearts connect you can fuck things up, and have things go so dark, but in the end of the day, if the effort is there, and you're truly intertwined, it will conquer all! Or i'm just delusional haha, regardless love the reaction Rachel!
I knew a7x 17 years ago, and somehow i miss this band and their song and the rev nowadays mucher than i first knew and play their song. The rev is just so genius people you can ever imagine with his master piece!!
i went to avenged sevenfold in amsterdam this year, and they feel like they are just having fun putting out a concert. they went on annother 30 minutes after the concert should have ended, sayed they dont do song requests, but did a song request. overall one of the best concerts i went to. my dad also went to them when they were playing before metallica, he had the same experience and that was 10 years ago, i love them
Yeah the music video for this one really helps paint the story. It’s about a guy who murdered his gf because she said no to his proposal for marriage (not only that but laughed at him as if he was crazy thinking anyone would ever marry him). He snapped and killed her and ended up preserving her body and well….having fun time….with it but since dead bodies are cold he got a “heater for her thighs” so it would feel like she was alive. Eventually her soul came back to her dead body to get revenge and she killed him. He then snapped back out of it and realized what he had done and how fucked up it was so he asked for her forgiveness and she decided to give him a chance since now they’re essentially both stuck in this purgatory together of basically being zombies. They end up doing regular zombie shit together, you know the normal zombie shit, and they ended up falling back in love and deciding to actually “get married” and spend the rest of eternity together as the undead killing people, more specifically killing people getting married because the idea of marriage is what got them both in the situation they were now in in the first place. It’s definitely an extremely morbid and fucked premise and story, and that’s kinda the point. That type of story and lyric to the background of the musicality they play throughout is haunting because it doesn’t seem like the story will be that dark. The Rev wrote the song basically entirely himself and it’s considered one of their best songs simply because it’s so unique to all the rest of their shit and it’s just so well done and if the topic were different, it likely would’ve been nominated for some shit
The first part The Rev sings is the guy killing the girl. He stabs her about “50 fucking times” rips her heart out and eats it. He just fully loses it. The second time he sings the lyrics change to “must have stabbed HIM fifty fucking times” because she comes back for revenge and kills him the same way he killed her. Stabs him and then rips his heart out and eats it. The point being she was an asshole to him, he killed her, she came back to get revenge and killed him, now they’re both stuck undead and they’ve both eaten each others hearts and realize they both messed up so they end up “bonding” over that and end up together forever. Toxic ass relationship tbh 😂
Another fun fact. This song is such a loved song by A7X fans, when they play it they tend to play it at the very end nowadays as a closer, so when I went to see them a few years ago when they had a make up concert because they were supposed to open for Metallica but had to postpone because Syn’s wife went into labor, they had a make up concert that was free if you had tickets to the Metallica concert and now it was a headlined A7X concert so longer setlist. Anyways, they played this song at the very end and right before they played it, they brought a guy on stage from back stage and he proposed to his gf on the stage. She said yes and then they went into this song to end it off 😂
I love how The Rev do the backing vocals like laughing and screaming. And i heard The Rev just yelling "hot dogs" lol. I heard it because i'm searching only The Rev vocals and i found it.
@@robert3401 yeah but in terms of the video it was very obviously about to be a no lol. But yes technically true “before the possibilities came true, I took all possibility from you”
Not gonna lie, when I started getting into avenged sevenfold and heard this song for the first time I also got very weirded out, now it's one of my favorite a7x songs
Love your a7x reactions. I think you should perhaps do some of the newer stuff too. The Stage is such a great journey along with the official video, a different genre in a way, but still the way a7x knows how to deliver themselves like before.
I must add, being a huge old school Avenged fan, this song has MANY genius level easter eggs lol. One being "You had my heart, at least for the most part". Because when she consumed his heart she only ate a part of it. Another being "We fell apart" being the part where they "fell apart" being mutilated via knives. Lol!
You should definitely react to the official video. You'll get more of an insight into what the song is absolutely about and the creative that went into this music video is absolutely one of a kind 🖤🤘
Hey, really love your reactions! I feel like you have a lot of good input on these songs. If you want, take a look into Architects. Although I'm not the biggest fan of their newest album they are my favorite band by a long shot. Very unique style and excellent writing.
Funnily enough I'd consider Sevenfold and Architects two of the most important bands I ever came across. Architects circa 2009 with Hollow Crown was the only obsession I ever had that rivalled my obsession with Sevenfold in 2006 with City of Evil. Great taste!
Watch the music video on your own time. It was is impossible to get the story without it because it is complex.. 👀 It is also a pretty cool production ;) However this concert is so cool and I always prefer that singers/vocal coaches reacts to onetskes/live music if they are reacting primarily to vocal since there is no production aids on those
Avenged seven fold in their prime is the best band ever.. According to their lives and studio records, they provide the same skills.. The vocal, the instrumental evrything was perfect 👌....
God, seeing you react to one of the more traumatizing songs I heard in my youth was endlessly funny for me. At "thats...big bad" I was cackling and out of breath. Thanks for helping me process some old trauma lol
Noooo, this is actually one where you HAVE to watch the actual music video!!! I love playing it on my projector with my Halloween display🤘I just have to be carefully looking out for certain kiddos who shouldn't see it, but it's great!
It really only makes sense when you know that the band wanted to put this song on a Halloween EP. But yeah, bad things happened, yet love prevails. Great song, and it was a great concert! I didn't know that they were going to record before when I went to this show.
Love when people react to this live show, i personally love the live version of this track more than the studio one (primarily for the Matt - Jimmy call and response part). Some things you may enjoy (maybe not even video worthy - more like on your own time). There are numerous videos on the story of how this song came to be, it's the Rev's baby. Also, they have a bunch of studio track breakdowns (and yes they did this song) they started doing which are super cool because a lot of the times they'll isolate the different instruments and vocal parts or little parts of the songs that are easy to miss.
This song was written when the band took a break to recover from writers block. The rev (drummer) went to a cabin in the middle of nowhere for several weeks (may have even been months. Idk.) No contact with the outside world. Just him, his thoughts, and his instruments. When the band got back to the studio. He sat in front of the drum set, recorded the entire drum track in one take. Then went to the piano and recorded the whole piano part in one take. Then he explained the song to the rest of the band. the rev will always be king
The realization of what the crime was and syn doing his hand motions is why i love this song. It's like the grimm dark version of nightmare before xmas loll
If i could relize a moment in life, it would be 2018 when I was fortunate enough to haul their show, and hearing this every night live. Its because of them I'm touring for the past 10 years. The song always reminds me of if Tim Burton created a Circus. Thats the way I explained it to my wife when I introduced her to A7X
"And the frickin guy with the guitar that does the hand gesture" 😆😂💀 That's Gates alright. Lmfao. 💀
The Rev wrote this song from a dream he had and he arranged and wrote all of the music himself. He also has one of the best backing vocals in this song.
His vocals are not back but actually co-lead
dude was a genius
All correct except he wrote it in a single night while absolutely drunk off his ass.
@@VladiIliev You're right it says it in the song and album credits.
@SigTheSauceMan not just drunk...
At this point you should just do the whole lbc series. That'd be like a journey and we'll have fun watching it.
omg, YES
i second thissss
YES PLEASE!
Yes
Yes!
I love Live versions, but this is one song that the official video is worth seeing. The visuals drive it home.
Should definitely watch the music video before seeing the live version. You understand the story way better
Its better that people see the live version before the music video so they know what they're getting into, cause yall have scared off loads of people from reacting to a7x by recommending this song
I think she would’ve reacted to the music better if she didn’t have the lyrics up in this version. She was so distracted by trying to figure out the story lol
@@chlaco2005 Valid point!
I personally put the lyrics over my copy of the official video so you can keep up with the story; if any one wants it reply here.
"Cause I really always knew that my little crime would be cold, that's why I got a heater for your thighs." That lyric has lived rent free in my head for over a decade lol. It's so messed up.
Man, I used to blare this song in my little Toyota Corolla. That part IS so catchy. I also used to like PaPa Roach- I almost told you that I loved you.
@@michellesnightmare that's also a banger.
What does it mean exactly? I have a rough idea but I doubt it’s right
@@YoungDyl99its about 👉👌
@@YoungDyl99 keeping a dead bodies thighs warm. I'll let you sort out the rest.
this video shows just how incredibly amazing of a musician the rev was, he sung a difficult vocal line WHILE playing the drums. And i didnt even hear a single mistake
Syn's little gesture during the heater for the thighs line always makes me chuckle
Real
Sinister bates
Syn's Guitar Lead at 8:28 with that Vocal Climb from Matt and Jimmy always gives me chills to this day. Such incredibly wicked art in performance. 🤘
bass players do that sort of thing all the time......but we never get recognition......just saying.

Well, actually, the animated version was recommended to me by RUclips 😂😂😂😂
And they almost weren't gonna do it but the Rev really pushed to get it done
Edit: meant to say M Shadows pushed to get it done.
My favorite part about this song is that it was the real first step of Avenged Sevenfold trying something almost... Prog
One of the best song of A7X

Check out the death bat club. You can be a part of their world.

They end up doing regular zombie shit together, you know the normal zombie shit, and they ended up falling back in love and deciding to actually “get married” and spend the rest of eternity together as the undead killing people, more specifically killing people getting married because the idea of marriage is what got them both in the situation they were now in in the first place. It’s definitely an extremely morbid and fucked premise and story, and that’s kinda the point. That type of story and lyric to the background of the musicality they play throughout is haunting because it doesn’t seem like the story will be that dark. The Rev wrote the song basically entirely himself and it’s considered one of their best songs simply because it’s so unique to all the rest of their shit and it’s just so well done and if the topic were different, it likely would’ve been nominated for some shit
The first part The Rev sings is the guy killing the girl. He stabs her about “50 fucking times” rips her heart out and eats it. He just fully loses it. The second time he sings the lyrics change to “must have stabbed HIM fifty fucking times” because she comes back for revenge and kills him the same way he killed her. Stabs him and then rips his heart out and eats it. The point being she was an asshole to him, he killed her, she came back to get revenge and killed him, now they’re both stuck undead and they’ve both eaten each others hearts and realize they both messed up so they end up “bonding” over that and end up together forever. Toxic ass relationship tbh 😂
Another fun fact. This song is such a loved song by A7X fans, when they play it they tend to play it at the very end nowadays as a closer, so when I went to see them a few years ago when they had a make up concert because they were supposed to open for Metallica but had to postpone because Syn’s wife went into labor, they had a make up concert that was free if you had tickets to the Metallica concert and now it was a headlined A7X concert so longer setlist. Anyways, they played this song at the very end and right before they played it, they brought a guy on stage from back stage and he proposed to his gf on the stage. She said yes and then they went into this song to end it off 😂
I love how The Rev do the backing vocals like laughing and screaming. And i heard The Rev just yelling "hot dogs" lol. I heard it because i'm searching only The Rev vocals and i found it.
No she didn’t reject him, he was terrified that she WOULD reject him
@@robert3401 yeah but in terms of the video it was very obviously about to be a no lol. But yes technically true “before the possibilities came true, I took all possibility from you”
I don't know why, I always like seeing you make videos wearing glasses, very beautiful especially when listening to a7x ❤
Not gonna lie, when I started getting into avenged sevenfold and heard this song for the first time I also got very weirded out, now it's one of my favorite a7x songs
"Did i hear that correctly?
... in her sleep???!!"
you are so innocent 😂
You must see Scream live at LBC ! The most badass part in LBC concert believe me :)
Masterpiece!
Fly high, Rev❤
Love your a7x reactions. I think you should perhaps do some of the newer stuff too. The Stage is such a great journey along with the official video, a different genre in a way, but still the way a7x knows how to deliver themselves like before.

8:26 "i feel like something sinister is coming." Just as something Synyster appeared. Hahaha!
I must add, being a huge old school Avenged fan, this song has MANY genius level easter eggs lol. One being "You had my heart, at least for the most part". Because when she consumed his heart she only ate a part of it. Another being "We fell apart" being the part where they "fell apart" being mutilated via knives. Lol!
This song is like the " Bohemian Rhapsody " of metal music. 🫡🦇
You should definitely react to the official video. You'll get more of an insight into what the song is absolutely about and the creative that went into this music video is absolutely one of a kind 🖤🤘
Was just about to say the same…if not a react, definitely go an watch the official video
Was also going to say the same. I like watching her reacts to A7X, but I feel like she wasn't fully understanding this one.
"Lets Start the Killing" this line, Damnnnnn 🔥
Hey, really love your reactions! I feel like you have a lot of good input on these songs.
If you want, take a look into Architects. Although I'm not the biggest fan of their newest album they are my favorite band by a long shot. Very unique style and excellent writing.
Funnily enough I'd consider Sevenfold and Architects two of the most important bands I ever came across. Architects circa 2009 with Hollow Crown was the only obsession I ever had that rivalled my obsession with Sevenfold in 2006 with City of Evil.
Great taste!
LMFAO YOUR REACTIONS ARE SO FUNNY 😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣 GREAT VIDEO!!
Do another reaction from this concert, it's really good to see
You're right
When you said the "chitty chitty bang bang when she was sleeping" i lost it 😂 nope.... Not sleeping... 😂
2:38 Yeah oh yeah baby, that's exactly what you're thinking ...😅🤞
Watch the music video on your own time. It was is impossible to get the story without it because it is complex.. 👀 It is also a pretty cool production ;) However this concert is so cool and I always prefer that singers/vocal coaches reacts to onetskes/live music if they are reacting primarily to vocal since there is no production aids on those
Why on her own time, she should do a reaction video, you however don’t have to watch it
@@kattastadir-sydri stop getting offended over everything, it’s pathetic
Avenged seven fold in their prime is the best band ever.. According to their lives and studio records, they provide the same skills.. The vocal, the instrumental evrything was perfect 👌....
why you had the subtitles on portuguese? 9:27
Eu olhei o vídeo original e essa parte tá em português mesmo hahaha
@@karolinesantos8862 os br q devem ser criado a legenda do video
Aahhhh, youre one of the very few, who react to the live version, which is by the way much better than clip version..Nice!
Masterpiece song 🤘
The WONDERFUL woman at Charismatic Voice... couldn't finish this song due to the content....
Because this song is sickening 😂.
God, seeing you react to one of the more traumatizing songs I heard in my youth was endlessly funny for me. At "thats...big bad" I was cackling and out of breath. Thanks for helping me process some old trauma lol
This is so wild because this is literally their encore song and it’s 8 min in length after performing the rest of the album.
We'll wait for the official video reaction. Breake the like button for her reaction.
Noooo, this is actually one where you HAVE to watch the actual music video!!! I love playing it on my projector with my Halloween display🤘I just have to be carefully looking out for certain kiddos who shouldn't see it, but it's great!
Your facial expression is wonderful when you realize what the song is about
at 2:30 when it starts to register in your head what this song is about lol i'm in tears im laughing so hard at your reaction
It really only makes sense when you know that the band wanted to put this song on a Halloween EP. But yeah, bad things happened, yet love prevails. Great song, and it was a great concert! I didn't know that they were going to record before when I went to this show.
Slowly realizing that the song is talking about necrophilia haha Your face was worth it hahah
At concerts people propose to this song lol. Foolproof plan as if they say know they are reminded of what will happe to them 😅
How can The rev just sing and still play the drums so perfectly??. He is insane 😮😮
You gotta watch this same live performance but playing Critical Acclaim.
Dude was a fcking beast.
RIP The Rev
Love when people react to this live show, i personally love the live version of this track more than the studio one (primarily for the Matt - Jimmy call and response part). Some things you may enjoy (maybe not even video worthy - more like on your own time). There are numerous videos on the story of how this song came to be, it's the Rev's baby. Also, they have a bunch of studio track breakdowns (and yes they did this song) they started doing which are super cool because a lot of the times they'll isolate the different instruments and vocal parts or little parts of the songs that are easy to miss.
This song was written when the band took a break to recover from writers block. The rev (drummer) went to a cabin in the middle of nowhere for several weeks (may have even been months. Idk.) No contact with the outside world. Just him, his thoughts, and his instruments. When the band got back to the studio. He sat in front of the drum set, recorded the entire drum track in one take. Then went to the piano and recorded the whole piano part in one take. Then he explained the song to the rest of the band. the rev will always be king
Oh yes finally another Avenged Sevenfold reaction video from this beautiful girl❤❤
The realization of what the crime was and syn doing his hand motions is why i love this song. It's like the grimm dark version of nightmare before xmas loll
Just the realisation what it’s about around 2:45 makes it so perfect 😂
The rev was the one came up for the song idea and wrote it, there is a documentary about the making of the song, its great
Dont you just love when people finally figure out what this song is about
If i could relize a moment in life, it would be 2018 when I was fortunate enough to haul their show, and hearing this every night live. Its because of them I'm touring for the past 10 years.
The song always reminds me of if Tim Burton created a Circus. Thats the way I explained it to my wife when I introduced her to A7X
