ya'll, I misspoke! When I was listing the degrees I was going for I said "Digital Music Composition" 🤦♀🤦♀ that was a CLASS I took!! The 4th degree I was working on was Audio Engineering lol...My mistake, I'm very sorry, that's embarrassing lol. If I make a follow-up video, I'll say something in that as well 😅
No need to apologize. I for one would have never known or guessed the difference, lol. They seem to have a lot of goofy degrees these days, and one in "DMC" wouldn't have actually struck me as being odd, heh.
Jess, CONGRATS on your first year. Lifetime night shifter here and even 9 years after retirement I'm still awake most of the night. Associate Degrees are great, they target whats needed. Your reactions have been insightful and looking forward to participating in future. Have a good day/week.
hey kid. you and your honest reactions are always welcome in my world. i have played a lot of tune , you react to, i have played over my 48 years drumming. you and other reactors, have made me realize that as a drummer, i too often have only heard the drums and bass. i am re discovering the beauty of many faves but for the second time, because it is new enjoyment and discovery. you have given me a gift i was not ever expecting. thank you, my friend. i appreciate all you have to offer. be well, kind sweet friend. everett xo happy to be first comment
Congratulations on your first year of reacting. I discovered your channel because of your Home Free reactions. I appreciate your honest, open reactions and yes even your ramblings. Hang in there and have a fantastic year two.
Congratulations on your year. I've watched a lot of reaction channels over the years and many never make it this far. I think what many don't understand is that YT is a media company. As such their focus is on producing content at the lowest cost possible. So don't count on them for income. Focus on every way you can think of to get that out of YT's hands. If this is just a hobby that's fine but if not you gotta go after every angle you can think of. In busseness the people who make it are the ones who adapt fast to get the bottom line up. Also know that not everyone thinks that way or even wants to and there is nothing wrong with that either. I'm telling you this because you seem like a sweet girl who is working hard and I enjoy your reactions. Hope you have a Merry Christmas, don't stress it and remember the message it's really supposed to be about.
Happy anniversary Jessie. Ever since I discovered your channel through your Ren reactions I became a fan. I really enjoy your "rambling" style, as you describe it, as it shows an honesty some bigger channels often don't seem to have. You don't need fancy equipment and studios to make great content, just being yourself is most important. As someone else who often has trouble sleeping and has tried studying (through distance learning) I can understand, a little, your journey and I'm not a single mom on top of that😊 Keep doing what you do Jessie, I wish more artists and record companies appreciated the benefits of channels like yours for promoting their music, especially lesser known artists. "Byyyyeee for now"😁
Congratulations on completing your 1st year as a YT reaction channel! Watching people discover and react to some of my favorite artists is one of my guilty pleasures, and I watch a lot of different reaction channels. I'm glad you popped up on my Recommendations. Your smile, excitement, and authenticity won me over after watching a couple of your videos. I wish you all the best, and I look forward to following you on your journey. 🙏❤️🙂
Hi Jessie, thanx for sharing. I started following your reactions last night, because I liked your personality. You let yourself shine through, you give yourself. You are bright, lively and original. If I may get personal you also seem sensitive. In a good way. Best wishes from Denmark, and I look forward following your very authentic reactions. Regards Tom
Doing what you’re doing is perfect, rambling included don’t need more or less. Something fantastic that you do is including new bands like The SiXsters and Freeze the Fall even though they don’t get as many views at first. most reactors just go for the short term quick views. I don’t watch Any rectors that don’t include some new bands but I’ll suffer through the old zillionth time view of super popular or old bands for reactors that do cover them. I forgot you’ve only been at this for about a year because of how good and natural you are at it. Don’t try to overdo it just do what you’re comfortable with and you’ll enjoy it as we always do.
My overall takeaway from this video is... you are doing a truly great service to those who are just beginning to do reactions videos. This is great, you are awesome, please keep reacting. 😃
I think RUclips puts music 🎶 reactors down. The record companies should promote reactors more because you are promoting the music they put out there. The way I see it is that you are doing a job for the bands and record companies. Congrats on being a single mom in this crazy world. I enjoy your vids.
Jessie thanks for posting this.Congrats on 1 year of reactions. You did answer one question I have noticed how much energy you have during your reactions the caffeine and insomnia explains that and they are enjoyable. I definitely get the nightowl thing after working overnight for over 16 years . This video was interesting to watch and maybe some other short videos to explain your work also would be great. Making notes maybe would work out to give you ideas what to talk about in your next video. Not really a script since you said that doesn't work well for you just short notes. Congrats again on 1 year!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts Jessie and a bit about yourself. I've wondered if you might have some music background, so thanks for sharing your schooling endeavors...pretty cool! Congrats on the one year; I hope you're able to continue on to two and three and more! Don't worry rambling or misspeaking. I remember when I found you and that's why i first subscribed to you, because you were genuine and interesting. Props to you parenting children with special needs as well! As a parent with a special needs child (now adult), I know as rewarding as it is, it can also be very challenging. But, I think there's no greater reward than seeing them grow and meet those challenges. Sending strength and wishes for peace and prosperity as 2024 closes and 2025 begins!
Hi dear Jessie, thanks so much for this special upload and for giving me (and all the other subscribers) a little insight and telling something about you and your private life. Honesty always pays off and I am sure it will bring you lots and lots of future subscribers and patreons worldwide. And I LOVE your honesty and openness to any musical genre. Please never stop being authentic in your reactions and also in videos like these, it makes you SO SO sympathic and makes me (and lots of others) stay here and keep on being a patreon and subscriber. Best wishes from Germany to TX : Gerry
Your freestyle is why I subscribed in the first place. Many others too, I guess. I love the imperfect, if it is authentic. Your first reactions were as good as the new ones. Please, don't get too professional. I like your personality, therefore I am interested in anything you wanna share about yourself. I would also watch reactions to different videos, not just music. 🧡
funny you mention that, I am considering doing non music reactions (again) in the near future. once upon a time, I did reactions to tiktoks and body cam footage. it was fun
J - Congratulations on your first year of reactions, and thank you for all the hard work it takes to share a bit of yourself with your followers. In addition to Patreon and Ko-Fi, you might want to provide PayPal information so supporters can contribute to your channel without a third party getting a cut. Best wishes for the holidays and your second year as a music reactor!
Bruh, that desk is too loud. 🤣Kudos to you and all reactors for giving it a go. Oftentimes the casual and honest, unpolished reactor is more satisfying than one who seems rehearsed and catering to a mass audience, as some seem to do. No need to apologize for "rambling." (Tho you do so in a likeably self-deprecating way) You don't work for us, it's YOUR show, go with your own flow. I mean, yeah, if you just began reciting the phonebook or spending an hoiur on your favorite color you'd likely lose a lot of us, but **authenticity** is what a lot of us in the audience want, especially if you love--or even hate, lol! - our favorite artists, so say what you feel like saying. I joined your Patreon just based on your recent , thoughtful, "rambling" Zeppelin reaction Yeah, I'm the guy who just dropped that lengthy-ass request for more Zep, lol! SPEAKING of "rambling," I am gonna STFU now, but congrats and good luck with this channel and your life! (Helpful nag: Try to solve your insomnia in a healthy way. Good sleep is too valuable an asset to ignore!)
Happy anniversary from another stranger on the internet!! ❤ Up with you at 4 am, as I too am a lifelong "insomniac" ....and FYI, cuz I am WAY further along in age...I have found that not worrying about it, caffeine and filling the hours with reading and/or other tasks is the best way to go, with not worrying being the most important. (Gee I wish I had the internet for those first 40 or so years) Also, I really appreciated the insight into what you have to do to render a viewable video ...sounds like my old recording days with 4-track cassette decks...Ha!!. I really do sympathize with all the behind the scenes work you and other content providers must do to provide me with a few minutes of viewing... you are all my heroes!!! The first step in breaking through to a new and better reality these days, is for all of us is to take control of our own screens...as free as possible from government/corporate intervention. Alas, while "they" still impose hurdles and restrictions, it is people like you, who selflessly endure the BS and manage to regularly generate honest content that are truly changing the world. ✌
I love these insight videos, the best thing is that you don't try to be anything other than what makes you, you. Never let the haters bother you either, their problem is internal. Well done Jessie.
Dear, Jessie. Congratulations on making it through a year. I can vouch for the impact you have and really really appreciate what you do. I've seen your desk and thought about somehow getting you a stronger one. If you wanted to do something like a specific GFM anytime for a desk or whatever I'm sure you'd have great support. In fact I'd pay for one myself. I sometimes wonder if I give too much Grandpa type advice... Like 'have you tried real coffee in the morning and decaf after midday?' OR 'Don't write a script, just have notes'. I also have turned insomniac lately which is why you might see me making comments at my 3am. Last night in my dream an elephant came to my bed and got in with me after 2 hours sleep. Does that mean I'm under pressure? Ha. Honestly I could talk to you for hours. Here I go again, writing too much. I had more to say but I can see I've already taken much of your time. I really wish you all the best and want you to put your health and family first so don't be concerned about sharing ideas for projects. I have a project that's been going for 30 years. Love, Mark.
ya'll, I misspoke! When I was listing the degrees I was going for I said "Digital Music Composition" 🤦♀🤦♀ that was a CLASS I took!!

I only just found you, congratulations on your first year reacting. Here's to many more years and great success for you. 🌻

Congratulations on your 1 year anniversary. It takes a lot of guts to set up your own RUclips channel, especially as a single mum. You're a natural.
Thanks for sharing and my best to you and your family.
Anyone thinking of reacting should watch this. Great! Off the cuff

1 year and 12k subs.💐 You are a promoter. I have subscribed to bands you've introduced me to. Thank you. 🌱🐝🌳🌞
