I want to thank yall in advance for letting me post this commenr. this feels weird talking about this topic here, but it's also easier since none of us know each other. this song is my life right now. I'm an ex-workaholic who is now disabled and can't work anymore. I have severe chronic pain 24/7 because of my health issues, for which there is no cure. I've been fighting to get my disability for almost 5 yrs now. My husband and i haven't been getting along, mostly because of money. I had to sell my dream car that i worked so hard to get. So now I'm stuck at home all day, every day because we only have one vehicle and my husband needs it for work. I went to therapy for a while, but it didn't really help, and i have absolutely no friends whatsoever. I talk to my mother and aunt, but i don't want to burden them with my issues when they have their own. I feel like i have absolutely no purpose anymore. I know i wouldn't do anything drastic, but that doesn't mean i dont think about it. If i didn't have my dog, i dont know where i would be now. Thank you for letting me say what i needed to say, whether anyone reads it or not.
Your purpose is within you and your passion to be more will find you again. If you need to talk then i will find a way to reach out. You are truly not alone.
Hi Susan. I'm Jodi. I also suffer from chronic pain issues. I'll tell you what all ales me. I hope thats OK with you, and no I'm not telling you this to compete with what you are going through. I'm am only saying so you know that I truly understand what you are going through and to also let you know that you are not alone. Ok, here is my list: I have lupus, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis, degenrtive disc disease, Raynaud's disease, scleroderma, and hypothyroidism. (I swear on everything that I hold dear that I only listed all of this so you know that I 100% understand what you are going through every day) Now, I can tell you that you do have purpose! Your life means everything and not just for you but for everyone who loves you. I don't know your story as to how you became disabled and what ever is was that happens is none of my or anyone else's business! And I know that right now it very hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel but it is there. I'm not going to sit here and lie and say that "thing will get better with time" because depending what it you you are dealing with it may not. BUT, you will figure out how to work around it. I've been dealing with all of this for 20 years. I felt useless, felt like a burden to everyone. So I did the only thing that I could! I fought back. I decided that NO, I was taking back control of my life! Not gonna lie, it was hard. It still hard everyday to get out of bed. And it time but, I found my purpose. Now I work for the Sheriff's office as a Process Server. Its not a glamourous and I wish the pay was a bit more, but that will come with time. You can find your purpose! No matter what that may be, you WILL figure it out. Just remember, God put you here for a very good reason and we're not meant to be given the answer as to why. That's all part of the journey. Talk to your doctors and ask them what type of work you can do that won't interfere with you health. (Your health is the most important thing here) Do you have an attorney to help you with SSC disability. 98% of these attorneys do not charge upfront. And most of the say if you don't win the case there is no charge for you to pay at all. This is an uphill battle hon. And it will be for the rest of your life. Sorry to be so blunt but sugar coating this is not helpful to you. What I can say is that you ARE way STRONGER then you give yourself credit for!!!!! So make all that pain your B**CH!!! You've got this!!! And if you need someone to talk to leave a comment here. Sorry this was so long!¡ I will keep you in my prayers!!!🤍💛
@@jodimccoy1636thank you for taking the time to just reach out and tell your story. To be honest, when topics like this come up, i don’t expect to roll through these emotions, but to have connection with the audience is just you all taking the ride with me. Both do you show incredible strength and this means more than you both know. What i haven’t said to you all is i am currently serving and I have had to deal with more situations like this than most do I truly can feel the words being said. If you both need anything. Let me know, I’ll find a way to chat with you both. Hell, i got flagged and an email based on this review, but I’ll be honest, I’m not in any harm, i truly take the time to understand.
@jodimccoy1636 thank u for sharing. I don't mind sharing my issues. Its part of who I am and maybe I can learn more if someone else has the same problems. I got hit by a car when I was 17 and it broke my hip, wrist and ankle. It also messed up my back and neck. It happened 30 years ago and i still have alot of issues with my hip and leg. 14 years ago, (31 yrs old) I had a stroke because of birth control. I lost all feeling on my right side. It took about 9 months for it to return. Except some of the feeling changed when it returned. It caused thalamic pain syndrome in my right arm and hand. It feels like my skin is on fire 24/7 and i wont allow anyone to touch that arm. Its excruciating pain when touched. Even clothes hurt. couple of years after that, I had a complete hysterectomy because I tested positive for ovarian cancer. I'm also 50% deaf. I'm 45 yrs old now, and its so hard some days. I want to cry when I think the next 40 yrs carrying all of this around. Yall don't have to worry tho. I wouldn't do anything to harm myself on purpose. I appreciate being able to share, even if this is not quite the place to do that. Thank u!
Dude, you get this dude more than 98% of people. RR is absolutely the man. Dude crushes everything musically, be it rapping or headbanging. I'm an older cat and it's so obvious how genuine and down this dude is yet weak people hate on him. I'm still waiting on the Ronnie Radke / Tom MacDonald collab. Both dudes are beasts, spreading unpopular opinions (which are actually popular but the MSM has brain-fuct everyone). RR isn't political (so he says) but this is a Trump man lol. God bless him. I was a drug addict and robbing people 25 years ago. I know real ass fools when I see them. Homeboy is truly a beast.
This was one of the better reactions I’ve seen of this. Can’t wait for you to keep going down the rabbit hole. Can’t wait for the trilogy reaction to Losing my life, Losing my mind, and Drugs.
If Ronnie took 25 minutes for this then I know for a fact that this is a musician with extreme talent. This means that pain has been held onto for a long time, but this release was needed, and we all can see that.
Technically the line "I lost my mother" can apply to Ronnie as well. His mother abandoned him when he was a baby and never spoke to her or saw her until she went to a concert of his when he was 30 years old. He forgave her at that moment, but decided to not continue a relationship with her.
I’m sure that forgiveness was not easy but for him it was likely necessary. Some wounds never heal, but forgiveness starts the mending. I can respect that. Thanks for enlightening me🙏🏾
Oh, the mother reference. Reminds me of the other rabbit hole with FIR. Watch in this order: losing my mind, losing my life then drugs. In drugs there’s a mother scene that reflects this.
This is the song that made me fall in love with the music made by Ronnie and the rest of his team. Was totally into Papa Roach and watched a video of Ronnie playing this for Jacoby and Jocoby LOVED it. I've gone so far down the rabbit hole with their music and watching others react to them that Wonderland is a distant speck. I've seen them live three times and will see them again anytime they are playing close to me.
I love watching people discover Ronnie and FIR for the first (second, third, fourth...) time. His music, videos, emotions, it's really something spectacular. I first heard them during a particularly dark period I was going through, and they've truly helped my mental state so much. I've never heard anyone that can come close to the vocal versatility he demonstrates. He can sound like an angel or a demon depending on which way the wind is blowing, haha. I'm glad that you seem to be enjoying their art! Gave you a sub and a follow so I can watch it unfold for you, your insight and understanding is fantastic. Some other FIR suggestions if I may: The Drug in Me is You/The Drug in Me is Reimagined (the contrast between the two is wild) I'm Not a Vampire/I'm Not a Vampire (Revamped) again...the contrast "The Trilogy": Losing My Mind (1 of 3) Losing My Life (2 of 3) Drugs (3 of 3) Carry On All My Life Popular Monster Voices in My Head Rock on man, buckle up and enjoy the ride! 🤘
Unbelievable reaction, very impressed with your perspective and I love watching to see what you’re gonna say or how you think about it, keep them coming
Honestly i never really listened to the lyrics on the original. I took Ronnie slowing it down and singing it so beautifully for me to actually hear it! OMG! Gives me goosebumps
There’s so many great songs by them! Here’s a list of my personal favorites: Popular Monster Voices in my head Zombified The entire “Popular Monster” album basically The trilogy(in this order): Losing my mind Losing my life Drugs The drug in me is you/the drug in me is reimagined I’m not a vampire/I’m not a vampire (revamped) ^^Best to watch these in one sitting back to back Raised by wolves Champion Rolling stone Alone Bad girls club Just like you Born to lead Coming home Carry on Last resort (reimagined) Ronnie is a musical genius, and a story of redemption. You never know what you’re going to get, each song is so different but so undeniably Ronnie.
You totally understood this video. So many people haven’t commented on the section where the crumbling paused over his head about ready to crush him. Another emotional song about mental health is Disturbed’s “A Reason To Fight”. It’s very good.
There's a great video of Ronnie playing the unmixed version of this for Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach) to get his approval and Ronnie is so nervous! It's so sweet & pure! ❤
wow.. your take at the beginning, on Ronnie being well dressed and wearing pearls and flowers.. you helped me realize that this version may have had this person so destroyed, that they had already surrendered everything and prepared theirselves for burial..
It’s the subtle things that i try to take note of. It’s not as though I try, but the art of understanding another means that I have to be empathic to all and I truly place myself in his shoes. It’s also like therapy to me because I know how hard life can be for some. I’ve been there so being relatable in music is how we connect. It’s just a beautiful way of understanding more than the music.
Great reaction. Im a diehard FIR fan, so i watch every single reaction lol. Yours was definitely one the BEST on this song. Cant wait to see more of your FIR reactions
I appreciate that. I wish that I would have found this rabbit hole sooner, but I'm not upset about it at all. Different and it makes me think differently as well and be connected with people even more. It's a blessing to see how music moves us.
Your breakdown of this song and video is phenomenal. Best one Ive seen yet and Ive watched most of them. Papa Roach's version hit as a angry, hurt teenager, but Ronnie's version allows the lyrics to come to the forefront and speaks to those of us who are adults now, who have maybe never really healed, who are broken. I have heard this version many times and it makes me cry and gives me goosebumps every time. One thing for certain about Ronnie is youll feel his emotions in his music, youll get to know him in his lyrics. Even some of his "funnier" songs, hes telling you something.
Oh how I enjoyed this reaction. I'm from Sweden and 52yo and a fan of Ronnie and FiR. You said so many insightful things🤗 You really seem to get the point. So I'm gonna watch more from you.
His mother abandoned him at a very young age. I think that's where the pain comes from. I truly appreciate your thoughtful insight. Keep up the great work! Great reaction ❤
i cant help myself to see & hear the tragedy of 9/11, thats the power of a talented musicians & videographers , people feel and see different things , I also feel the situation with my mom rn being VERY ill & has been at the hospital more than a year & feeling so much despair ..Ronnie is so damn talented
All i can say is keep the faith. You see the impact of a well thought out video and although my perspective may not match yours, nobody is wrong. I pray that your mother heals and returns home better than before. You are appreciated and your struggles and feelings are just as important to her as they are to you. I hope you are granted strength as you find your peace as well. Stay strong and stay focused.
This version Ronnie made adds a new view on the depth of suicide the original was just anger being pissed off no one is listening but this is absolute desperation. this version is you in your room the knife at your wrist about to rip it open begging for ANYONE to reach out and stop you. everytime I watch this video I cry because I've been there before thankfully I am not smart nough to know how to do it right. also THIS is the video that got me into being a fan of falling in reverse. everything ronnie makes with his band is great but this right here hit me in the heart and still makes me cry when I see it.
This spoke to me in such a different manner. Truly hard to describe the feeling while watching, but the depths of what made this his truth, is why this type of music speaks to so many. I’m thankful that you are here and I’m thankful that you took the time to share. Many of us need that to remind ourselves, that even at our lowest, we still have more to live and conquer. Even if that is facing ourselves long enough to get up and to live another day. THANK YOU!
I appreciate that. I know this video is sensitive to some, but I don’t even care about the algorithm on this track. The raw talent and words expressed mean more than likes or clicks.
One of the better reactions to this song I’ve seen. You got a follow from me. You’re a very deep thinker as I am and well spoken. Don’t stop man these are great!
I appreciate you taking note, but i just happened to be in awe of what i heard for the first time in this version. I was taken back because much like everyone else, I looked from a different perspective from the first time the original came out. Amazing take!
Thank you for your very thoughtful and very touching and insightful reaction, it's been a true pleasure to See you enjoy and u understand this band and Ronnies hard work. I feel you have been spot on about so many things and meanings behind all of things. I know you will have a laundry list if songs to get to from these guys that are newer and when you get through all of those and his trilogy, please keep your eye open for Their song "coming home " Ronnie wrote that song for his daughter and to quote him from an interview when the album came (just so I don't butcher his words or misquote him ) "This video is an analogy of the dichotomies between my personal life and my public life - a lonely traveler content on fulfilling the dreams he set out on, but missing out on everything he has at home. A bittersweet duality," said Radke. I believe he did not want to become his mother , not only to be sober and not choose drugs over family, but also just being absent due to working, and travelling so much. That song sounds like nothing else I've heard from them, except for carry on which is also a heart touching song, but coming home seems to special and unique I think you will like it and appreciate it for all the reasons I see you appreciate this song in this video. Just wanted to put it on your radar for the future 💟💟💟💟💟
Loved your reaction ❤ So on point. Lost my mom 11 months ago today, my best friend. I identified. And yes, I'm trying to build my life back. I may have withdrawn, but I'm working on it. Thank you for your words
Hey brother. I saw this pop up on my feed and had to stop through. Just a reminder that you are easily the best, and most honest reactor on this platform. I appreciate you stepping away and taking the moment you need. Those that have experienced deep pain know that feeling, and that thread that pulls and reminds you of the pain that your absence would cause your family. Even Randy Savage said, "It's okay for Macho men to show every emotion available. Right there you know because I've cried a thousand times. I'm gonna cry some more." Stay you , and thank you for your continued service.
Thanks for the words. When you lose close people around you then this rendition hit different. I’m just hopeful that people understood the positive message of “hope”. There is no way I will ever know each of you, but I truly love you all as family. Thanks for stopping in and just chatting. This is the reason I created this channel so I can just show that even if we are human, life and music is connected. Blessings brotha!🙏🏾

i love your reactions! ❤️ FIR is my favorite band 100%. You NEED to watch Popular Monster next!
I am SOOOO glad you caught the tears and emotion on the Cello player at 11:33! Also, You talking about losing everything and having to start over and losing everything and starting over - I have done this several times - I honestly could not go through it one more time, especially if it is due to my government policies here in Australia forcing this crap upon to me due to 800% immigration without houses available to house them and not making it easier for people to add Granny Flats for a start - Rents are now almost 80% of my weekly NET income FFS! Soon I will have to sell all I have ever earned by working my arse off just to have a roof over my head for which that luxury (of which I am only under said roof at night time to sleep) but 4 days work per week keep that roof I am only under it whilst asleep, geez, I can not go through that shet again, straight up! My music stuff also costs me money each month for ZERO income because Apple Music (Shazam was Apple bought years ago too)/Spotify etc is a scam pretty much, but 'you as an artist need to have you stuff up there'. All that I and other artists PAY to get their music up, Joe Rogan, Taylor Swift, Metallica etc are PAID by them to add music! Plus earn loadsa cash in return ofc. Musicians like me are PAYNG to keep these big bands on streaming! We get NOTHING! Plus it costs so much money for just a single. 1 song costs me about $20 per year minimum to have on all streaming....sounds like nothing - but add 7 more songs, or an album or 3! plus adding onto that Shazam (Apple) crap on top of it (without paying for that, Shazam will not recognise any song.) If ANY song you try to 'Shazam' is not recognised - it is coz the artist chose to not pay APPLE for them to allow Shazam to hear it. Waste of money - That is the ONLY cash Crapple has EVER gotten from me, I have never bought or owned ANY Apple product - even if they were the last brand on EARTH, I would refuse them! Much more to say, but cbf, Got a load off my chest in this comment, all good! But fkn hell! We need to kerb out immigration being at 800% without adequate housing available as that massively increased/increases ALL prices above what they are in the US right now!!! JUST SAYING!!!!! But local councils in suburbs/towns/cities NEED to fast track house developments and cut RED TAPE in the meantime. until we vote out these WOKETARDS out of power and bring STABILITY into Australia! Also you in the US, vote Trump if you can, that will fix your issues so easily!
The best reaction n break down of this song EVER my friend. I had several times i cried. Its crazy being an Empath. Just the word PAIN u put up made me realize just how empathic I AM. (always like putting I AM in caps) u know why too. Im sure. Great job
Thank you for the kind words. It an honor to break down this band. It’s more of an honor to relate to everyone who gets to connect and detach from these feelings. Just know you are loved!
I'm loving your journey with falling in reverse and you have some great insight. I highly recommend "The Trilogy" (losing my mind, losing my life, drugs) Also if you enjoy this, Ren is your next stop. British rapper who can really spit, and talks about really deep stuff from all the horrible experiences he's had. Start with "Hi Ren" which is not a rap song, but then do Sick Boi, Illest of our time, The Hunger, Animal Flow, etc. His videos are really good too.
When this song first came out and I heard it for the first time I couldn’t listen to it for a long time after it triggered my depression so bad I had to up my meds. But I love the song and it just brings different emotions to the listener than the original version does.
This is after "Watch The World Burn". There are no people in this gray world and everything has been turned to ash, even the buildings crumble. They stop crumbling when Ronnie makes his decision. Then the buildings start Falling In Reverse. 😊
@@ToneDeafMusiqfor sure. And as you said I let myself feel those emotions because it shows me I'm alive. Ronnie has been through some serious shit and he uses it everytime he preforms live. You should watch the video of him showing Jacoby Shaddix the song for the first time. It brought me to tears how emotional they both got.
I used to despise people who thought of suicide. I now have a child who lives a very hard life, it's hard to see him suffer his disability. Our lives are nothing like I thought it might be and I've felt the deepest helplessness and can understand contemplating suicide. Obviously I've decided I can't do that. My kids need me to do the best for them so I make it through dark times for them, because they deserve that.
To relate is what shows growth. All the ideals i learned or felt early on in life have changed. And thankfully, I’m open I’m open enough to just see through the lenses of others. I’ll keep your family in mind, but thank you for sharing so others can see that change is not a curse…and what we don’t understand doesn’t necessarily mean it’s wrong. Much love and appreciation for sharing. 🙏🏾
Awesome breakdown… if you want more of the deep stuff you would like the trilogy of losing my mind losing my life and drugs in that order because they piggyback each other
This actually might be my favorite reaction to this song I've ever watched... lol and I reacted to it myself a very long time ago. Amazing assessment: I actually saw this in a completely different way than I had before. You opened my eyes to another layer I hadn't ever considered. I love that you see the artwork in this song the way I do. Fantastic reaction, keep it up. I would really love to see you do "Mirrors" by Adam Calhoun and Mesus Feat. Tom MacDonald. After watching you break this down - I would love to hear your take on a banger of a rap song but with as much heart and depth as a song like this one. Edit: lol I just joined so I could get that guaranteed reaction... And I checked to make sure you hadn't already done it, and I see you haven't done any videos to any of them. So, if you have by chance never heard of them, I wanted to share something with you. They are all three INDEPENDENT artist at the top of the game. If you like the song, those are some very interesting rabbit holes to go down.
Thanks for the words. I’ll check it out. Truly means a lot coming from another reactor. A artists inspire each other and since you stopped in, I’ll show some love to your page as well. I’d love to see your perspective.
You should check out another one of his songs called "Voices in my head" and "Popular Monster", after that go back to some of his older songs. everything he has come out with has some kind of mental health issues like depression, suicide and other and it shows his journey on how he has continued to battle those issues. in Popular monster he has a small part at the end where he shows his daughter Willow, and he has come out and said that she is one of the biggest influences in his life that has helped him with his own struggles. As a father myself i can relate to that so much that when my daughter was born she turned my life around when i was down. when i come home from work and had a terrible day, she lifts me back up when she comes running to the door happy to see me. her hugs alone can bring me out of any dark place i might be in and helps me move forward past anything that is going on in life.
Man the part about your daughter makes my soul feel soothed brotha. I wrote this and I’ll share with you as i can relate. --- A Fathers Dream Through the eyes of a father…we can only hope our daughters rest well without a care in the world. The love that a man has for his daughter energizes his soul as she holds him. No matter how many of life’s hooks are thrown into the heart and soul of his being, he awakes each day to protect, provide, and gift the same unconditional love she shares with him. On his darkest days, he knows that each ounce of sweat, blood, and tears he may shed in the unsettling times, is for her. All that he has been, comes full circle as he used to provide her with love and attention she needed to survive. Now, the tides have turned and she fills his cup with comfort, love, and protects his name if he is worthy. However, to know that the world can tear a man apart, her laugh, her smile, and her presence gives reason for his heart to beat and challenge the world. Knowing that by any means, he will protect her for the rest of his days, passing wisdom and the deepest of conversations to her as she attentively listens, is nothing short of a miracle. For as he learned to find his way, so does she and she will carry his heart within her soul as far as she can go. For she knows…that nothing in this world can replace her father. And she knows that she can never be looked at the same, because her father….is the first man that ever laid eyes on her and felt the light from her soul. Nothing compares knowing love like this.
what i noticed is these videos were released in reversed so its . Prequel -by the suit--then --watch the world burn , with the suit on , world burns,, - then this song last resort ,, world come together.. but im still not sure if the suit is, Full Armor of God or the warrior on the plane.
Constructive criticism here. You heartbeat sound effect is distracting. You would get so much better music quality if your headphones were directly on your ears. Then you would REALLY know how good Ronnie is. Just my 2 cents.
I agree, the reactions are good but the heartbeats and music whilst you are talking is distracting me from what you are actually saying and I want to hear what is being said 😊
I want to thank yall in advance for letting me post this commenr. this feels weird talking about this topic here, but it's also easier since none of us know each other. this song is my life right now.

You are truly not alone.
Hi Susan. I'm Jodi. I also suffer from chronic pain issues. I'll tell you what all ales me. I hope thats OK with you, and no I'm not telling you this to compete with what you are going through. I'm am only saying so you know that I truly understand what you are going through and to also let you know that you are not alone. Ok, here is my list: I have lupus, fibromyalgia, spinal stenosis, degenrtive disc disease, Raynaud's disease, scleroderma, and hypothyroidism. (I swear on everything that I hold dear that I only listed all of this so you know that I 100% understand what you are going through every day)
Now, I can tell you that you do have purpose! Your life means everything and not just for you but for everyone who loves you. I don't know your story as to how you became disabled and what ever is was that happens is none of my or anyone else's business! And I know that right now it very hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel but it is there. I'm not going to sit here and lie and say that "thing will get better with time" because depending what it you you are dealing with it may not. BUT, you will figure out how to work around it. I've been dealing with all of this for 20 years. I felt useless, felt like a burden to everyone. So I did the only thing that I could! I fought back. I decided that NO, I was taking back control of my life! Not gonna lie, it was hard. It still hard everyday to get out of bed. And it time but, I found my purpose. Now I work for the Sheriff's office as a Process Server. Its not a glamourous and I wish the pay was a bit more, but that will come with time. You can find your purpose! No matter what that may be, you WILL figure it out. Just remember, God put you here for a very good reason and we're not meant to be given the answer as to why. That's all part of the journey. Talk to your doctors and ask them what type of work you can do that won't interfere with you health. (Your health is the most important thing here)
Do you have an attorney to help you with SSC disability. 98% of these attorneys do not charge upfront. And most of the say if you don't win the case there is no charge for you to pay at all.
This is an uphill battle hon. And it will be for the rest of your life. Sorry to be so blunt but sugar coating this is not helpful to you.

Both do you show incredible strength and this means more than you both know.

@jodimccoy1636 yes I do have a disability lawyer. I'm fixing to have my 2nd hearing in front of a judge.
One of the best reactions to this song that we've seen since it dropped man.. Absolutely here with you for this rabbit hole 🤘🏻.
We are blessed to have Ronnie during our lifetime. 🔥❤️🤘
Dude, you get this dude more than 98% of people. RR is absolutely the man. Dude crushes everything musically, be it rapping or headbanging. I'm an older cat and it's so obvious how genuine and down this dude is yet weak people hate on him. I'm still waiting on the Ronnie Radke / Tom MacDonald collab. Both dudes are beasts, spreading unpopular opinions (which are actually popular but the MSM has brain-fuct everyone). RR isn't political (so he says) but this is a Trump man lol. God bless him. I was a drug addict and robbing people 25 years ago. I know real ass fools when I see them. Homeboy is truly a beast.
please keep Tom Macdonald and his bullshit music away from FIR lmao. he's not even american idk why he's even rapping about shit going on here
This was one of the better reactions I’ve seen of this. Can’t wait for you to keep going down the rabbit hole. Can’t wait for the trilogy reaction to Losing my life, Losing my mind, and Drugs.
Great reaction!! You completely understand
Ronnie recorded this in a single 25 minute session. Stunning. I love your reaction to it and the love you send out. Thank you!
If Ronnie took 25 minutes for this then I know for a fact that this is a musician with extreme talent. This means that pain has been held onto for a long time, but this release was needed, and we all can see that.
Technically the line "I lost my mother" can apply to Ronnie as well. His mother abandoned him when he was a baby and never spoke to her or saw her until she went to a concert of his when he was 30 years old. He forgave her at that moment, but decided to not continue a relationship with her.
I’m sure that forgiveness was not easy but for him it was likely necessary. Some wounds never heal, but forgiveness starts the mending. I can respect that.
Thanks for enlightening me🙏🏾
He's had quite the rough life, but that's what makes his songs so emotional and relatable. I have an immense amount of respect for this man.
He's had a pretty rough life, but that's what makes his music so emotional and relatable. I have an immense amount of respect for this man.
I truly can see his pain through the words.
Oh, the mother reference. Reminds me of the other rabbit hole with FIR. Watch in this order: losing my mind, losing my life then drugs. In drugs there’s a mother scene that reflects this.
Thank you for your deep thoughts on this. The version of this song hits SO deep and SO hard.
This is the song that made me fall in love with the music made by Ronnie and the rest of his team. Was totally into Papa Roach and watched a video of Ronnie playing this for Jacoby and Jocoby LOVED it. I've gone so far down the rabbit hole with their music and watching others react to them that Wonderland is a distant speck. I've seen them live three times and will see them again anytime they are playing close to me.
I love watching people discover Ronnie and FIR for the first (second, third, fourth...) time. His music, videos, emotions, it's really something spectacular.
I first heard them during a particularly dark period I was going through, and they've truly helped my mental state so much.
I've never heard anyone that can come close to the vocal versatility he demonstrates. He can sound like an angel or a demon depending on which way the wind is blowing, haha.
I'm glad that you seem to be enjoying their art! Gave you a sub and a follow so I can watch it unfold for you, your insight and understanding is fantastic.
Some other FIR suggestions if I may:
The Drug in Me is You/The Drug in Me is Reimagined (the contrast between the two is wild)
I'm Not a Vampire/I'm Not a Vampire (Revamped) again...the contrast
"The Trilogy":
Losing My Mind (1 of 3)
Losing My Life (2 of 3)
Drugs (3 of 3)
Carry On
All My Life
Popular Monster
Voices in My Head
Rock on man, buckle up and enjoy the ride! 🤘
THIS^^^^
🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙💥💥💥
With FIR every song seems like discovering them for the first time
Unbelievable reaction, very impressed with your perspective and I love watching to see what you’re gonna say or how you think about it, keep them coming
I’ve watched almost every review out there on this song because it’s a favorite of mine. This is my favorite reaction yet. Great job.
Honestly i never really listened to the lyrics on the original. I took Ronnie slowing it down and singing it so beautifully for me to actually hear it! OMG! Gives me goosebumps
There’s so many great songs by them!
Here’s a list of my personal favorites:
Popular Monster
Voices in my head
Zombified
The entire “Popular Monster” album basically
The trilogy(in this order):
Losing my mind
Losing my life
Drugs
The drug in me is you/the drug in me is reimagined
I’m not a vampire/I’m not a vampire (revamped)
^^Best to watch these in one sitting back to back
Raised by wolves
Champion
Rolling stone
Alone
Bad girls club
Just like you
Born to lead
Coming home
Carry on
Last resort (reimagined)
Ronnie is a musical genius, and a story of redemption. You never know what you’re going to get, each song is so different but so undeniably Ronnie.
Yes!!!
You totally understood this video. So many people haven’t commented on the section where the crumbling paused over his head about ready to crush him. Another emotional song about mental health is Disturbed’s “A Reason To Fight”. It’s very good.
Pappa Roach absolutely loved his take on this. There is a video of him showing an unmastered version of this. You should check that one out for sure.
I just watched this recently. Like a child showing his talent…but the reaction was pure amazement. 🙏🏾
There's a great video of Ronnie playing the unmixed version of this for Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach) to get his approval and Ronnie is so nervous! It's so sweet & pure! ❤
I appreciate your perspective, as well.
wow.. your take at the beginning, on Ronnie being well dressed and wearing pearls and flowers.. you helped me realize that this version may have had this person so destroyed, that they had already surrendered everything and prepared theirselves for burial..
It’s the subtle things that i try to take note of. It’s not as though I try, but the art of understanding another means that I have to be empathic to all and I truly place myself in his shoes.
It’s also like therapy to me because I know how hard life can be for some. I’ve been there so being relatable in music is how we connect.
It’s just a beautiful way of understanding more than the music.
❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Ive played this in bands hundreds of times in shows, and Never heard the lyrics until Ronnie did his thang here!
Great reaction. Im a diehard FIR fan, so i watch every single reaction lol. Yours was definitely one the BEST on this song. Cant wait to see more of your FIR reactions
I appreciate that. I wish that I would have found this rabbit hole sooner, but I'm not upset about it at all. Different and it makes me think differently as well and be connected with people even more. It's a blessing to see how music moves us.
Commenting again for the algorithm. You deserve it. And thank you.
This song took a youth masterpiece, and translated into a language heard and felt by an adult.
Your breakdown of this song and video is phenomenal. Best one Ive seen yet and Ive watched most of them.
Papa Roach's version hit as a angry, hurt teenager, but Ronnie's version allows the lyrics to come to the forefront and speaks to those of us who are adults now, who have maybe never really healed, who are broken. I have heard this version many times and it makes me cry and gives me goosebumps every time.
One thing for certain about Ronnie is youll feel his emotions in his music, youll get to know him in his lyrics. Even some of his "funnier" songs, hes telling you something.
Thank you. It’s truly an eye opening experience.
Can’t wait to continue to the next trilogy.
Oh how I enjoyed this reaction. I'm from Sweden and 52yo and a fan of Ronnie and FiR. You said so many insightful things🤗 You really seem to get the point. So I'm gonna watch more from you.
You are so on point!! I dont even know you but I will call you friend. xo
Thank you for sharing your feelings with us during this experience. Knowing others share similar emotions makes me know we aren't alone. 🔥reaction
It was my honor…i appreciate the depths of this song. 🙏🏾
You're not alone, Aubrey
If anybody watches this video. Just know you are not alone. I truly care about people and this is why it hit home.
I am a new appreciator of you. ❤ Wise words.
His mother abandoned him at a very young age. I think that's where the pain comes from.
I truly appreciate your thoughtful insight.
Keep up the great work! Great reaction ❤
What an awesome rabbit hole this is😎
i cant help myself to see & hear the tragedy of 9/11, thats the power of a talented musicians & videographers , people feel and see different things , I also feel the situation with my mom rn being VERY ill & has been at the hospital more than a year & feeling so much despair ..Ronnie is so damn talented
All i can say is keep the faith. You see the impact of a well thought out video and although my perspective may not match yours, nobody is wrong.
I pray that your mother heals and returns home better than before. You are appreciated and your struggles and feelings are just as important to her as they are to you. I hope you are granted strength as you find your peace as well.
Stay strong and stay focused.
This is an amazing reaction❤
This version Ronnie made adds a new view on the depth of suicide the original was just anger being pissed off no one is listening but this is absolute desperation. this version is you in your room the knife at your wrist about to rip it open begging for ANYONE to reach out and stop you. everytime I watch this video I cry because I've been there before thankfully I am not smart nough to know how to do it right. also THIS is the video that got me into being a fan of falling in reverse. everything ronnie makes with his band is great but this right here hit me in the heart and still makes me cry when I see it.
This spoke to me in such a different manner. Truly hard to describe the feeling while watching, but the depths of what made this his truth, is why this type of music speaks to so many.
I’m thankful that you are here and I’m thankful that you took the time to share. Many of us need that to remind ourselves, that even at our lowest, we still have more to live and conquer.
Even if that is facing ourselves long enough to get up and to live another day.
THANK YOU!
I love your insight. This is my favourite reaction to this video. Thank you ❤
I love how you break down your thoughts and emotions. Great poetry, sir! Keep it going. Much love
I appreciate that. I know this video is sensitive to some, but I don’t even care about the algorithm on this track. The raw talent and words expressed mean more than likes or clicks.
Such a thoughtful reaction! This song always makes me 😢
Great reaction. This is one of my favorite covers. Ronnie has so much emotion in his voice.
One of the better reactions to this song I’ve seen. You got a follow from me. You’re a very deep thinker as I am and well spoken. Don’t stop man these are great!
I appreciate you taking note, but i just happened to be in awe of what i heard for the first time in this version.
I was taken back because much like everyone else, I looked from a different perspective from the first time the original came out.
Amazing take!
I watch a lot of reaction videos and you are by far the most authentic. I hope that more people find this channel.
It's really amazing how well you read these videos. It's like you're in his head.
Thank you for your very thoughtful and very touching and insightful reaction, it's been a true pleasure to See you enjoy and u understand this band and Ronnies hard work. I feel you have been spot on about so many things and meanings behind all of things. I know you will have a laundry list if songs to get to from these guys that are newer and when you get through all of those and his trilogy, please keep your eye open for Their song "coming home " Ronnie wrote that song for his daughter and to quote him from an interview when the album came (just so I don't butcher his words or misquote him ) "This video is an analogy of the dichotomies between my personal life and my public life - a lonely traveler content on fulfilling the dreams he set out on, but missing out on everything he has at home. A bittersweet duality," said Radke. I believe he did not want to become his mother , not only to be sober and not choose drugs over family, but also just being absent due to working, and travelling so much. That song sounds like nothing else I've heard from them, except for carry on which is also a heart touching song, but coming home seems to special and unique I think you will like it and appreciate it for all the reasons I see you appreciate this song in this video. Just wanted to put it on your radar for the future 💟💟💟💟💟
#FallingInReverse 🔥🔥!! 🌎❤️
Loved your reaction ❤ So on point. Lost my mom 11 months ago today, my best friend. I identified. And yes, I'm trying to build my life back. I may have withdrawn, but I'm working on it. Thank you for your words
Just remember that since you can still feel and even type this message that you’re strong enough for anything. I send nothing but blessings and love.
Keep going down the rabbit hole please, the videos and music are soo good!
Hey brother. I saw this pop up on my feed and had to stop through. Just a reminder that you are easily the best, and most honest reactor on this platform. I appreciate you stepping away and taking the moment you need. Those that have experienced deep pain know that feeling, and that thread that pulls and reminds you of the pain that your absence would cause your family. Even Randy Savage said, "It's okay for Macho men to show every emotion available. Right there you know because I've cried a thousand times. I'm gonna cry some more." Stay you , and thank you for your continued service.
Thanks for the words. When you lose close people around you then this rendition hit different. I’m just hopeful that people understood the positive message of “hope”.
There is no way I will ever know each of you, but I truly love you all as family.
Thanks for stopping in and just chatting. This is the reason I created this channel so I can just show that even if we are human, life and music is connected.
Blessings brotha!🙏🏾
i love your reactions! ❤️ FIR is my favorite band 100%. You NEED to watch Popular Monster next!
Friday is right around the corner!!!
This Reimagine version made me think what was actually Papa Roach going thru and i'm super glad they are okay now days
I never listened to the lyrics until I heard Ronnie sing it
@@marshagrebjohnston8669 same! and with that intensity and emotion even more deep into it I went with the lyrics 🙌🏻🔥
I am SOOOO glad you caught the tears and emotion on the Cello player at 11:33! Also, You talking about losing everything and having to start over and losing everything and starting over - I have done this several times - I honestly could not go through it one more time, especially if it is due to my government policies here in Australia forcing this crap upon to me due to 800% immigration without houses available to house them and not making it easier for people to add Granny Flats for a start - Rents are now almost 80% of my weekly NET income FFS! Soon I will have to sell all I have ever earned by working my arse off just to have a roof over my head for which that luxury (of which I am only under said roof at night time to sleep) but 4 days work per week keep that roof I am only under it whilst asleep, geez, I can not go through that shet again, straight up! My music stuff also costs me money each month for ZERO income because Apple Music (Shazam was Apple bought years ago too)/Spotify etc is a scam pretty much, but 'you as an artist need to have you stuff up there'. All that I and other artists PAY to get their music up, Joe Rogan, Taylor Swift, Metallica etc are PAID by them to add music! Plus earn loadsa cash in return ofc. Musicians like me are PAYNG to keep these big bands on streaming! We get NOTHING! Plus it costs so much money for just a single. 1 song costs me about $20 per year minimum to have on all streaming....sounds like nothing - but add 7 more songs, or an album or 3! plus adding onto that Shazam (Apple) crap on top of it (without paying for that, Shazam will not recognise any song.) If ANY song you try to 'Shazam' is not recognised - it is coz the artist chose to not pay APPLE for them to allow Shazam to hear it. Waste of money - That is the ONLY cash Crapple has EVER gotten from me, I have never bought or owned ANY Apple product - even if they were the last brand on EARTH, I would refuse them!
Much more to say, but cbf, Got a load off my chest in this comment, all good! But fkn hell! We need to kerb out immigration being at 800% without adequate housing available as that massively increased/increases ALL prices above what they are in the US right now!!! JUST SAYING!!!!! But local councils in suburbs/towns/cities NEED to fast track house developments and cut RED TAPE in the meantime. until we vote out these WOKETARDS out of power and bring STABILITY into Australia! Also you in the US, vote Trump if you can, that will fix your issues so easily!
Time for the trilogy.
Losing my mind, losing my life and then drugs
The best reaction n break down of this song EVER my friend. I had several times i cried. Its crazy being an Empath. Just the word PAIN u put up made me realize just how empathic I AM. (always like putting I AM in caps) u know why too. Im sure. Great job
Thank you for the kind words. It an honor to break down this band. It’s more of an honor to relate to everyone who gets to connect and detach from these feelings.
Just know you are loved!
@@ToneDeafMusiq thank u. Bless yr heart n wisdom. See u on the nxt 1
Great reaction!!
I'm loving your journey with falling in reverse and you have some great insight. I highly recommend "The Trilogy" (losing my mind, losing my life, drugs)
Also if you enjoy this, Ren is your next stop. British rapper who can really spit, and talks about really deep stuff from all the horrible experiences he's had. Start with "Hi Ren" which is not a rap song, but then do Sick Boi, Illest of our time, The Hunger, Animal Flow, etc. His videos are really good too.
Here for the journey
When this song first came out and I heard it for the first time I couldn’t listen to it for a long time after it triggered my depression so bad I had to up my meds. But I love the song and it just brings different emotions to the listener than the original version does.
Best reaction to this I have seen. You really need to watch Ren Hi Ren. You will love it and I truly would like to see your reaction.
I'll check it out!
This is after "Watch The World Burn". There are no people in this gray world and everything has been turned to ash, even the buildings crumble. They stop crumbling when Ronnie makes his decision. Then the buildings start Falling In Reverse. 😊
Such a good reaction. Your breakdown was fire❤️🔥. Can’t wait to watch more
Thank you so much!!
Phenomenal reaction and breakdown 🤘🤘
I appreciate that. I don’t think this vid will go to far based on the topic, but the song is a masterpiece!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loved your comments
Can’t wait for you to react to Popular Monster!
♥
You feel like family.. actually better.. xo
as I remember one comment from the original video -"Papa Roach's version is teenage anger and rage. FIR's version is adult depression."
Perfect description!!!! Sad yet very true. The evolution changes with age.
@@ToneDeafMusiqfor sure. And as you said I let myself feel those emotions because it shows me I'm alive.
Ronnie has been through some serious shit and he uses it everytime he preforms live.
You should watch the video of him showing Jacoby Shaddix the song for the first time. It brought me to tears how emotional they both got.
Love this reaction. You should see the lead singer of papa roach react to it. Is name is Jacoby Shaddix
Ronnie's voice and music help me find something I owe him my life.
Please do The Trilogy.
Losing my Mind
Losing my Life
DRUGS!
Coming soon!!!
I really appreciate your vulnerability.
You get it. I am a new fan. I love Ronnie!
I truly do get it. This concept just made it make more sense.
I used to despise people who thought of suicide. I now have a child who lives a very hard life, it's hard to see him suffer his disability. Our lives are nothing like I thought it might be and I've felt the deepest helplessness and can understand contemplating suicide.
Obviously I've decided I can't do that. My kids need me to do the best for them so I make it through dark times for them, because they deserve that.
To relate is what shows growth. All the ideals i learned or felt early on in life have changed. And thankfully, I’m open I’m open enough to just see through the lenses of others.
I’ll keep your family in mind, but thank you for sharing so others can see that change is not a curse…and what we don’t understand doesn’t necessarily mean it’s wrong.
Much love and appreciation for sharing. 🙏🏾
Awesome breakdown… if you want more of the deep stuff you would like the trilogy of losing my mind losing my life and drugs in that order because they piggyback each other
I'll be taking that journey soon. Catching up on work so I can clear out the schedule.
This actually might be my favorite reaction to this song I've ever watched... lol and I reacted to it myself a very long time ago. Amazing assessment: I actually saw this in a completely different way than I had before. You opened my eyes to another layer I hadn't ever considered. I love that you see the artwork in this song the way I do. Fantastic reaction, keep it up.
I would really love to see you do "Mirrors" by Adam Calhoun and Mesus Feat. Tom MacDonald. After watching you break this down - I would love to hear your take on a banger of a rap song but with as much heart and depth as a song like this one.
Edit: lol I just joined so I could get that guaranteed reaction... And I checked to make sure you hadn't already done it, and I see you haven't done any videos to any of them. So, if you have by chance never heard of them, I wanted to share something with you. They are all three INDEPENDENT artist at the top of the game. If you like the song, those are some very interesting rabbit holes to go down.
Thanks for the words. I’ll check it out. Truly means a lot coming from another reactor. A artists inspire each other and since you stopped in, I’ll show some love to your page as well. I’d love to see your perspective.
🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙💥💥💥
You should check out another one of his songs called "Voices in my head" and "Popular Monster", after that go back to some of his older songs. everything he has come out with has some kind of mental health issues like depression, suicide and other and it shows his journey on how he has continued to battle those issues. in Popular monster he has a small part at the end where he shows his daughter Willow, and he has come out and said that she is one of the biggest influences in his life that has helped him with his own struggles. As a father myself i can relate to that so much that when my daughter was born she turned my life around when i was down. when i come home from work and had a terrible day, she lifts me back up when she comes running to the door happy to see me. her hugs alone can bring me out of any dark place i might be in and helps me move forward past anything that is going on in life.
Man the part about your daughter makes my soul feel soothed brotha.
I wrote this and I’ll share with you as i can relate.
---
A Fathers Dream
Through the eyes of a father…we can only hope our daughters rest well without a care in the world. The love that a man has for his daughter energizes his soul as she holds him. No matter how many of life’s hooks are thrown into the heart and soul of his being, he awakes each day to protect, provide, and gift the same unconditional love she shares with him.
On his darkest days, he knows that each ounce of sweat, blood, and tears he may shed in the unsettling times, is for her. All that he has been, comes full circle as he used to provide her with love and attention she needed to survive. Now, the tides have turned and she fills his cup with comfort, love, and protects his name if he is worthy.
However, to know that the world can tear a man apart, her laugh, her smile, and her presence gives reason for his heart to beat and challenge the world. Knowing that by any means, he will protect her for the rest of his days, passing wisdom and the deepest of conversations to her as she attentively listens, is nothing short of a miracle.
For as he learned to find his way, so does she and she will carry his heart within her soul as far as she can go. For she knows…that nothing in this world can replace her father. And she knows that she can never be looked at the same, because her father….is the first man that ever laid eyes on her and felt the light from her soul.
Nothing compares knowing love like this.
Remember that this is the same guy that chops like Tech N9ne, spits with the Eminem Ak47 flow and growls like an orc.
he did a song when he was in escape the fate " called day i left the womb" says about his life
❤💋
Yes, the statue was crying 😢
At the end of the video on Prequel you will see the buildings collapsing from this video
Hi, is there a way you can make a video reviewing my new songs? It is a school project to make an all Ai band. Thank you
what i noticed is these videos were released in reversed so its . Prequel -by the suit--then --watch the world burn , with the suit on , world burns,, - then this song last resort ,, world come together.. but im still not sure if the suit is, Full Armor of God or the warrior on the plane.
this is after watch the world burn, which is after Ronald.
Now you need to listen to Hollywood Undead's 'Bullet' and you'll hear a song about suicide that 100% doesn't sound like you'd think it would
This comes after watch the world burn. So he is alone after the worlds burnt. Showing the regret
I haven’t seen anything this self descriptive since Kurt Cobaine and Chester from Lincoln Park. I believe it’s a cry for help. Just imo.
Absolutely….maybe I’ll go back and check out some older tracks.
can u stop the heart beat
Ronnie has dealt with so much bullshit in his life. From all the hate to spending too being wrongfully accused of murder.
Ronnie really did lose his mother in a sense due to drug addiction. She abandoned the family when he was a baby
Just wild. It happens, but we truly hope that it doesn’t. No child deserves that.
Constructive criticism here. You heartbeat sound effect is distracting. You would get so much better music quality if your headphones were directly on your ears. Then you would REALLY know how good Ronnie is. Just my 2 cents.
I agree, the reactions are good but the heartbeats and music whilst you are talking is distracting me from what you are actually saying and I want to hear what is being said 😊
