It's funny that you say you would never think that all of these songs are by them because as Luke says they're the biggest band that nobody has ever heard of
C: Calum Hood (bassist and singer) A: Ashton Irwin (drummer, he is a beast on drums and can sing too) L: Luke Hemmings (lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist) M: Michael Clifford (lead guitarist and singer)
All the boys are singing but the voice you're hearing in the most of the tracks belongs to Luke Hemmings, lead singer. Michael Clifford is guitarist and also vocalist, Calum Hood is the bassist and also vocalist and Ashton Irwin is the drummer and also vocalist(He just released a solo album with a completely different genre, you should check him out too). They started covering songs on RUclips in 2012, then Louis Tomlinson tweeted one of their covers then they blew up! They supported One Directon in two tours. They have 4 albums in total. First two have more Punk sound than the others. The second album Sounds Good Feels Good is a fan favorite album. They changed their sound a little bit on the 3rd album Youngblood in 2018 which you should check that ASAP, it's a banger. Their 4th album is CALM which came out on March 27 2020. Also you're right, Charlie Puth is one of the producers and writers of Easier. They also have a remix with Charlie Puth where he sings in it too. Also the last track, Kill My Time is produced by One Direction's producers John Ryan and Julian Bunetta.
One Direction, Little Mix and 5SOS are 3 fandoms and discographies if you take one listen to, you wont be stopping anytime soon. The rabbit hole only gets deeper from here Bev!
@@MichaelBeveraggi mmm how about The Vamps??!! I think they'd be worth a check out of you haven't already !especially their latest album, Cherry Blossom, I think it's the only album I've actually really listened to but wow really amazing
new people discovering 5 Seconds of Summer and starting on CALM is one of my favourite things honestly. I’ve been listening since their first album, so it’s been interesting for me to grow with the band and see their (VERY impressive) evolution from the start, but for someone to be able to start from now and go backwards and see where they came from is just so interesting to me, especially when they get to the first album. I would say, if you’re gonna go backwards through them, listen to their EP’s and B-Side albums too, because they’re just as good as the main albums :)) they’re also really funny guys, all 4 of them EXTREMELY talented. Good luck mate, as soon as you’re in it isn’t an easy escape aha
I definitely started standing them after listening to CALM! it is an amazing album!! I knew I had heard about them before because I mean who didn't know about them in 2014, but I am excited to fall in love with their older music as well!! I love being trapped in the 5SOS fandom!
@@dianam8596 I’ll give you a couple more months and you’ll start diving into sounds good feels good and self titled, tbh all of their albums are amazing!
@@yousra3279 Actually I already listened and they have evolved incredibly (music and lyrics), their first 2 albums aren't my favorite kind of music (not at least the ones that I would listen to over and over again like Youngblood and CALM) and that's ok
actually they wrote easier with charlie puth and they also have a remix of the same song with charlie:) you should react to their version of easier live from the voult, is much heavier and the video is awesome

“Teeth” just won the 2020 ARIAS “Song Of The Year” !! They were nominated for 3 awards, but the Aussie music industry have their home faves and since 5SOS live in LA they get a little sidelined..!
also if u want to know a bit of their personalities i highly recommend you to watch they carpool kareobloke it's basically them riding in car while listening to the album and it's super fun, great reaction!!!
React to their live at the vault easier and teeth. They are amazing live and we called them the biggest band that nobody has heard of, yess all of them sing and the drummer dropped an album in quarantine.
CALM actually stands for all of their names . Calum, Ashton, Luke, and Michael. This is something that has been around with the fans since the early days of 5SOS.
I love to see people falling in love with 5SOS because they are that incredible. In my opinion, every single one of their albums is beautiful and shows so much of their growth, and let's not forget about the diversity because these guys can pull off anything and make it a masterpiece. You can go into CALM, Youngblood or Sounds Good Feels Good and enter in a complete different universe but a very beautiful one. The Self Titled holds a special place in my heart because is the album that introduced me to them.
Their names are Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood and Ashton Irwin! Ashton actually released his own album recently, it's different from 5sos songs, you should check it out.
Not in the same way is about Luke’s toxic relationship with his ex (who shan’t be named). Thankfully he’s now in a loving relationship with Sierra but it was hard for the other guys to have to sit and watch him go through what he did with his ex. Lover of Mine he co wrote with Sierra ... she’s made him so much happier. The voice you wanted to know is Luke’s ... the lead vocalist. He does most tracks (except Wildflower - that’s Calum). He’s gotten stronger vocally and more consistent. Recommend you start from their first album and go forward so you can really hear the difference and growth of these guys. They’ve always been amazing but they keep getting better with each album. You should check out their cover of Killer Queen (both videos of behind the scenes footage and the actual video)... this is where they learnt all the harmonies they’ve included on this album. It’s Queen harmonies you’re hearing more so than the Beatles .. IMO 🤷🏼♀️
Im loving how your brain works lol, great reaction. ALSO "easier" was co-written with Charlie Puth and others, that's why it sounds so familiar. They are called Luke (the one on the yellow shirt, main singer and the one you hear the most in this album), Michael (the one on top of Luke's head), Ashton (white shirt, he also released a solo album, you should hear it), and Calum (on top of Ashton, also the 2nd "main" singer, wildflower is his song on this album and one of my personal favs!) They are great, you should hear the other albums, but you'll find something very different from this one😊
okay so from the CALM cover, Calum Hood (blue hair): bass and 2nd main vocals , he is actually the one singing the main vocal on Wildflower. Ashton Irwin (white tank top with jacket): drummer and vocals Luke Hemmings (yellow shirt): main vocal and guitar. Michael Clifford (blonde hair): guitar and vocals. do you see it? CALM. it's the first letters of their first names! and i have to say, because you pointed it out, in thin white lies, luke is the main vocal and the one singing the harmony at that high register is ashton. the DRUMMER. and i have to point that out because a lot of people (not fans obviously) think that as the drummer all he does is play drums (there was an incident where they did a performance for the 2015 BBC Radio 1's Teen Awards where ashton's mic was off even though in one of the songs they performed ashton literally has a solo verse, that whole performance was a mess because michael fell off the stage and mike and cal's mic's were turned down and whoever was in charge of lighting only put lights on luke, it was a whole mess, but the biggest thing that michael even called out on stage was the fact that ashton's mic was off. and you know it's because whoever was running the show probably didn't care about ashton's vocals or probably thought ashton didn't sing) but NO. ashton can SING, and every time we get him on a vocal we love it because he is so talented and doesn't get a whole lot of chances to sing live that often (he goes so hard on drums, it would be difficult) but we love a good ashton vocal. ashton also put out a solo album called Superbloom. it's incredible and he even has a live version of it out too. both are on his spotify. here's the thing. 5sos are very experimental and all their albums sound different. like you can hear connections between the albums. a song off Youngblood (3rd album) could have been on CALM, while another song off Youngblood could have been on Sounds Good Feels Good (2nd album). a song off SGFG could have been on Youngblood, while another song could have been on their Self Titled (1st album). but the albums as a whole sound different from each other in the best way. because you started with CALM you should work your way backwards so you can see how their sounds transitioned and changed between each album. also you should definitely check out their live from the vault versions of Easier, Teeth, and No Shame because they do sound different and they're a lot heavier than the studio versions. also, the music videos. they're so great and creative, and Wildflower in particular was filmed with a green screen in their homes while they were self isolating from each other. things you should also check out, not necessarily to react to them but just to learn about who they are as people, they have a movie called How Did We End Up Here which was filmed during their Rock Out With Your Socks Out World Tour in 2015 where they played songs off their Self Titled album. they also have tour diaries posted on their youtube channel that show how they are as people. also on their channel are old cover videos they did when they were teenagers and trying to get their start. actually, just check out their who youtube channel because they also have saved livestreams that they've done and some event things they did. OH also in 2015 they did this project called The New Broken Scene which was this secret live show that fans won tickets to and then they livestreamed the concert. it's up on youtube you just have to search "new broken scene 5sos" and it's the first video. there's of course a lot more content than this but this is a good starting point.
I was grinning so huge through this whole reaction. When you reacted to teeth and said you were looking for a good rock band I just laughed. You had no idea. Lol I think you should work your way backwards. They started as a pop punk band. You can hear little hints of this new verison of them in their second album, Sounds Good Feels Good, but Youngblood and Calm are definitely a whole new Era for 5sos! Luke Hemmings is the lead singer who you heard in most songs but Calum was the lead vocal in Wildflower and all the band members sing! I can't wait to watch you fall further down this rabbit hole. It's the best place to be!
It's 5am and I'm on a Beveraggi marathon of his reaction to my favorite artists. Sleep? We don't know her. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS, I'm so happy. It's sooooo good.
I love how inclusive he is. Literally how he uses “them” and “partner” instead of using “her” or “she” just because Luke (a man) is singing. It makes me so happy. UPDATE: inclusive AND HE CAN SING TOO? Boom. I’m sold. Subscribing rn
All you can expect from 5sos is: honest lyrics, amazing instrumentals, great vocals and that every single song you love in the albums always are a 100% better live (which for me says a lot) Also CALM comes from their initials: Calum (bassist and vocalist), Ashton (drummer and vocalist), Luke (main vocalist and guitar), Michael (guitarist and vocalist)
I discovered 5 sos this year and I was myself SO surprised. I'm in love with this band now, CALM and Yongblood are awesome albums and their old stuff is so catchy I'm just in love with them. All my most streamed songs on my spotify 2020 wrap are 5 sos haha
When I first listented to this album I immediately fell in love. It made me want to learn all of their life stories!! loved your reaction, also day 2 of begging you to react to Manic by Halsey. 🤍
Start at the beginning... most people go backwards but I think starting at the beginning and going forward you experience how they really evolve... plus the albums get better as they move forward. But each album is perfect in its own way
Watching your reaction to CALM was like watching me reacting to that album bc it was also my first time hearing anything from them (No Shame was my Teeth, you know what I mean?) and I also wondered where the fuck was I living not in this planet it seems, they are amazing WHAT AN ALBUM ITS JUST PERFECT. Thank you for giving me this level of excitement about hearing CALM again through you. You rock.
Nothing I love more than watching people fall in love with this band. If you ever want to see them live, this is the album to do it. This album his the best one yet and I hope it just gets better from here. I've been streaming this since it released and I haven't gotten tired of it yet! They have come a long way since thier first album.
CALM was the album where they experimented and mixed a lot of different genres together. 5SOS are the king of harmonies and are musical genius, periodt. CALM is such a breathtaking album when it comes down to lyrics. And the instrumentalisation is on another level. I'm so freaking proud of them. By the way, the first 6 songs were released as singles. "Wildflower" is just pure 80s pop, good vibes only, which is why it's my favorite song of the album, with Lover of Mine and Kill my Time. The title CALM are the initials of all the members: Calum, Ashton, Luke, Michael. CALM is also the acronym we, the fans, have used for a long time. So it's a nod to us as well, which is really sweet. Maybe watch the live version of "Wildflower" and the vault versions of "Easier" and "Teeth".
CALM stands for the initials of their names. Calum, Ashton, Luke, Michael. They all sing so well! but most people agree that Luke is definitely the strongest or best choice for lead vocalist which shows in their more recent albums. However their earlier albums have amazing vocals from Calum and even Michael. Ashton (the drummer) is capable of lead singer moments (he has a great falsetto too in many of the harmonising moments) and he actually released his own independent solo album “Superbloom” in 2020. personally I think Luke is definitely the best vocalist as his voice just suits so many different genres. But Michael’s vocals (not as consistently strong live) are so well suited When he harmonises with Luke and Calum. Michael and Calum sang a few more songs or parts of songs with Luke in their first 2 albums when they were teenagers. Luke is the lead vocalist and also rhythmic guitar (but is also an amazing lead guitarist - also piano/keys) He started as their lead singer when he was just 15. Calum is the bassist and sings the next most. And has a few solo songs like wildflower (Luke sings chorus parts equally with Calum) and also Babylon which are fan faves. Michael is lead electric guitarist and vocalist (does lots of harmonising in every song) he has a couple songs that he sings the most in as well like Jet Black heart, Permanent vacation & Airplanes. Ashton is drummer and vocalist. Doesn’t sing as much on the tracks (obviously does lots of the harmonies and joint vocals on every song as they are all so good in the studio) but the nature of their band is that they are a live group so Ashton can’t do as much vocals at all their shows as he’s busy on the drums. You need to listen to their “No Roots” cover on RUclips as it showcases Ashton and Luke’s vocals. Luke is still consistently the best vocalist and is such a strong singer (so nice from low to high ranges) If you want to start from near the beginning checkout their “How did we end up here” DVD concert movie. When they started Luke was 15, Calum and Michael 16, Aston 17-18 (finished school) Then Luke was developing his vocals as a 16-17 year old while they were touring with 1D and recording their first self titled album. Australian youth had already fallen in love with their very teen/angst EP which thru recorded when Luke was 16. I think Luke was 18 by the time they did their first headlining world tour and 19 when they recorded their DVD concert movie. Then they did “sounds good feels good” which their punk pop fan base loved. It started leading to their newer sound and they toured again. Then they had a 6months holiday (not a break as some people thought) they just needed a rest from touring and then they started writing Youngblood album. They are the only band in the world to have each of their albums debut at No.1 on the billboard charts. They’ve done that 3 times in a row. They would have made it a 4th No.1 album with CALM which is soooooo good. But one company accidentally released 15000 of their pre-sale CALM albums the week before so they charted at No.60 or something like that and people were confused as the album wasn’t out yet. So when the actual week of the correct date release happened they were a 3-4 thousand sales under “The Weekend” so CALM by 5SOS got the No.2 spot. Everyone blasted Billboard as they wouldn’t include the 15000 sales in the correct week which would have put them in No.1 spot fir the fourth consecutive album. They still have the record though (for a band) so still pretty hard to beat. But the fans would have loved to know they had 4 No.1 albums to make it a clean win :) Note when you checkout their Youngblood music video watch the alternate music video concert version (the Japanese Rockerbilly themed music video for Youngblood which is the actual offical music video but doesn’t show any of the 5 seconds of summer band members so isn’t as interesting to react to if you are there for the music) You should react to their live version of Teeth on James Corden. Shows how good Luke is vocally live. Wildflower live on James Cordon as well during Covid time is great to see Calum’s pitch perfect solo vocals or watch the Wildflower music video which has the band in front of green screens to make the video during quarantine - shows Calum lead vocals studio recording. Finally watch Teeth and Easier live from the Vault!!! They show the rock side of 5SOS and is very similar to how their songs are often just so much better at concerts. As they mainly write with live shows in mind. Note. Charli Puth was one of the writers on Easier. Sung by Luke. However there is a version of Easier featuring Charlie Puth where he sings some parts and Luke sings the rest. With all band members harmonising as well.
Im so glad to find you while starting out 5SOS you will really like them! their older albums personally are the best of the best but their new albums are also amazing!
I really recommend watching their interviews with zach sang, in those they talk about the procedure of creating music individually, but also collectively as a band and lots more. What i personally admire and love about this band is that they like to experiment with different sounds and and musical directions on every record of theirs, that’s why their music feels divers and different than the one they’ve done before, but they also make sure that they stay loyal to their roots and combine their old sound with their new one.
You should react to some of their live performances, they sound even better live! Their music is very diverse, I would recommend to react to their album Youngblood. Make sure to react to the deluxe version, it has three extra songs that you just NEED to hear!
I've already seen comments about 5sos' information so I'm not commenting that bc you probably already read it but I just wanna say that: your reaction made me feel SO HAPPY, I feel like even though you didn't know much about them you caught the feeling they wanted to give to listeners and that makes me reaaalllyyy ¿excited? and proud of 5sos for connecting with people through their music
Now I appreciate even more this album thanks to you, the way you put everything out and how you talk about every single track is amazingly inspiring and enjoyable ❤️ thanks again
Hey there! I LOVE your passion for music- it really shines through and makes the reactions that much more interesting to watch. As for the order of the albums, I think it’d be a good idea to work your way backwards, especially since you enjoyed CALM so much. Oh, and the title of the album is CALM because each letter represents one of the band member’s names: C(alum) A(shton) L(uke) M(ichael). And just like the other comments said: PLEASE react to their vault performances of some of the songs on the album- it’s hard to believe but they’re even better than the studio versions. Can’t wait to see your reactions!
This reaction is everything! I have been waiting to watch this and it was worth the wait! I just discovered them in 2020, too, and now...they're my favorite band. So dynamic, talented and honest. I can't get over how great your reaction was and how it mirrored my first listen :)
This was my top band and top album of 2020 on spotify! I'm so glad to see other people enjoying it and giving it the credit it deserves! ❤️ Cant wait to see more 5sos from you!
Ashton, the drummer of the band, who has major underrated vocals, actually put out a solo project recently called Superbloom and it is incredible, definitely highly recommend checking it out. I love that he decided to do that because he doesn’t sing much in the band (he used to a little bit more with their older stuff) but he has a great voice and i love getting a full album of his vocals. It has a kind of 90s grunge type feel in my opinion mixed with other things and it fits him really well.
You should react to their 3rd album Youngblood. Also the music videos of the singles from the album: Youngblood, want you back, lie to me and Valentine.
I seriously appreciated the little tangent you went on about the track order of an album. Not many people seem to relaize the importance of it, and I actually just wrote a paper on how the track order of an album influences an albums success, and knowing that im not the only one that finds it fascinatingly important makes me so happy- also i love that you love them, theyre easily my favorite band ever
I would love love love to see you react to their Older albums (Sounds good feels good and 5 Seconds of Summer) because they sounded so different and I think it would be really interesting for you to react to how different they were!!
This is exactly how I reacted the first time I got into these dorks now all I watch are 5sos related content. I’ve never been so in love with a band like this before I frickin love them to my core
ive been a 5sos stan since early 2013 so ive seen these boys grow up and Not In The Same Way straight away went to my top 3 5sos songs ever, i love everything about it
My fav is Zayn Malik too loved his voice in 1D that's why I'm kinda fascinated with how unique Luke sound. Both musicians (Luke & Zayn) got a unique voice. I acted just like you when I decided to give them a try I even looked up the Album on Genius to see who wrote and sing the songs and it's mostly Luke singing most of the time but they all sing and write the songs btw Charlie is harmonizing in the background too... I'd love to see your reaction to their cover of Queen- Killer Queen
when they released their very first album, i had already known a lot about them from Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan. I went to their concerts while they toured with One Direction, and it was absolutely amazing. after that i started going to more concerts of when they released new albums. i went to four in total throughout my childhood and i can honestly say, that Calm is the best album i’ve ever heard from them.
They all sing. Luke is the lead singer of the band (sometimes guitarist as well) and on this album, with the other members doing backing vocals. Calum is the bassist and the lead singer of "Wildflower". Michael is the lead guitarist and Ashton is the drummer. More info: they all are incredible songwriters and know how to play different instruments (guitar and piano). The band formed in 2011 in Sydney, Australia. I've been a big fan of 5SOS for a long time and I can tell you being their fan is a whole experience. You're already addicted to their songs haha Welcome to the fanbase. Enjoy the ride! Can't wait for you to listen to their older stuff. You should listen to the albums backwards, otherwise the change in sound is gonna be freaking brutal. PS: I would recommend listening to the earlier albums with the lyrics as it gets confusing who sings what.
Also I discovered 5SOS right as Teeth came out as ther second single for this album and they've seriously pushed BSB out of number 1 spot on my list of favorite bands. They are INCREDIBLE and it's SO easy to get obsessed
I need these other 5sos reaction vids and superbloom album reaction michael... im deprived over here pleaseeeeeeeeeee lol thanks love ya plus YOU'RE GONNAAA D WORD SO HARD w these holy moly no ones ready
The one who is singing the majority of the tracks on this album is Luke Hemmings (Rhythm Guitarist and lead vocalist). However Wildflower is sung by Calum Hood (Bassist and vocalist).Also Easier is co written by Charlie Puth that's why it sounds like his style. They are really underrated songwriters. Also you should react to they cover of Killer Queen by Queen and the making off it was for an album which was raising money for Freddie Mercury's aids foundation and the Brian May reached out to them to do a cover for the album 😁. Also they have 2 live albums which you should totally react to!
Omg, omg. I need him to react to "When You Walk Away", I think it's the song that made me listen to them in the first place. It's such a happy song musically. Also...THE NEIGHBOURHOOD! I need him to react to them.
Also you pointed out the Beatles influence on them - ashton (the drummer of 5sos) recently put out a solo album and you can definitely hear his influence there.. especially on the song skinny skinny. Keep up and greetings from Germany 😊
5sos is one of the most UNDERRATED bands of right now. The industry has pretty much targeted them negatively for YEARS. they’ve been marketed by the media really badly, so most of their music never gets the deserved recognition. In 2020 when the album was released, 10,000 copies were “accidentally” released a week early, causing billboard to not count their album as a number one album, even though it was. There are many other prior issues with the media hurting 5sos, but that is one of the more recent ones with this particular album.
“Where the hell have i been”
Oh! Welcome to this world sir, you wont be able to leave 🤣
facts
sooo true lmao
True... 😂
It's funny that you say you would never think that all of these songs are by them because as Luke says they're the biggest band that nobody has ever heard of
Michael said that, but still they deserves so much more, they are very slept on for no reason
@@sharishebasimbolon8191 maybe they both said it, because when I heard it it was Luke saying it
They have both said it 😂
now it’s for “youngblood” album!!!! PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Luke sings most of the songs on this album, except for Wildflower cause it's Calum
You so innocently said that they must be nominated for Grammy's. You have no idea how underrated they are. The industry literally sleeps on them.
They have been nominated for a few Grammys

All the boys are singing but the voice you're hearing in the most of the tracks belongs to Luke Hemmings, lead singer. Michael Clifford is guitarist and also vocalist, Calum Hood is the bassist and also vocalist and Ashton Irwin is the drummer and also vocalist(He just released a solo album with a completely different genre, you should check him out too).

They changed their sound a little bit on the 3rd album Youngblood in 2018 which you should check that ASAP, it's a banger. Their 4th album is CALM which came out on March 27 2020. Also you're right, Charlie Puth is one of the producers and writers of Easier. They also have a remix with Charlie Puth where he sings in it too. Also the last track, Kill My Time is produced by One Direction's producers John Ryan and Julian Bunetta.
Luke has one of THE best male vocals in the music industry!!!! The band I’m desperate to see live because they’re incredible live!
Me too!! I hope they can come to Perú some day 😢

React to their live at the vault easier and teeth. They are amazing live and we called them the biggest band that nobody has heard of, yess all of them sing and the drummer dropped an album in quarantine.
CALM actually stands for all of their names . Calum, Ashton, Luke, and Michael. This is something that has been around with the fans since the early days of 5SOS.
Luke getting the praise he deserves during this whole reaction
I love to see people falling in love with 5SOS because they are that incredible. In my opinion, every single one of their albums is beautiful and shows so much of their growth, and let's not forget about the diversity because these guys can pull off anything and make it a masterpiece. You can go into CALM, Youngblood or Sounds Good Feels Good and enter in a complete different universe but a very beautiful one. The Self Titled holds a special place in my heart because is the album that introduced me to them.
Their names are Luke Hemmings, Michael Clifford, Calum Hood and Ashton Irwin! Ashton actually released his own album recently, it's different from 5sos songs, you should check it out.
And also the name of the album (CALM) is made of the first letters of their names
Yessss SUPERBLOOM IS SOOOO GOODDD
"Lover of Mine" was my number 1 track on Spotify this year for a reason :)
Not in the same way is about Luke’s toxic relationship with his ex (who shan’t be named). Thankfully he’s now in a loving relationship with Sierra but it was hard for the other guys to have to sit and watch him go through what he did with his ex. Lover of Mine he co wrote with Sierra ... she’s made him so much happier. The voice you wanted to know is Luke’s ... the lead vocalist. He does most tracks (except Wildflower - that’s Calum). He’s gotten stronger vocally and more consistent. Recommend you start from their first album and go forward so you can really hear the difference and growth of these guys. They’ve always been amazing but they keep getting better with each album. You should check out their cover of Killer Queen (both videos of behind the scenes footage and the actual video)... this is where they learnt all the harmonies they’ve included on this album. It’s Queen harmonies you’re hearing more so than the Beatles .. IMO 🤷🏼♀️
i heard a few people say ,including me, that nitsw is actually about the beginning of his relationship with sierra
Im loving how your brain works lol, great reaction. ALSO "easier" was co-written with Charlie Puth and others, that's why it sounds so familiar. They are called Luke (the one on the yellow shirt, main singer and the one you hear the most in this album), Michael (the one on top of Luke's head), Ashton (white shirt, he also released a solo album, you should hear it), and Calum (on top of Ashton, also the 2nd "main" singer, wildflower is his song on this album and one of my personal favs!) They are great, you should hear the other albums, but you'll find something very different from this one😊
Thin white lies is my favorite song of the album ❤️
Red desert is about their home which is Australia
okay so from the CALM cover,
Calum Hood (blue hair): bass and 2nd main vocals , he is actually the one singing the main vocal on Wildflower.
Ashton Irwin (white tank top with jacket): drummer and vocals
Luke Hemmings (yellow shirt): main vocal and guitar.
Michael Clifford (blonde hair): guitar and vocals.
do you see it? CALM. it's the first letters of their first names!
and i have to say, because you pointed it out, in thin white lies, luke is the main vocal and the one singing the harmony at that high register is ashton. the DRUMMER. and i have to point that out because a lot of people (not fans obviously) think that as the drummer all he does is play drums (there was an incident where they did a performance for the 2015 BBC Radio 1's Teen Awards where ashton's mic was off even though in one of the songs they performed ashton literally has a solo verse, that whole performance was a mess because michael fell off the stage and mike and cal's mic's were turned down and whoever was in charge of lighting only put lights on luke, it was a whole mess, but the biggest thing that michael even called out on stage was the fact that ashton's mic was off. and you know it's because whoever was running the show probably didn't care about ashton's vocals or probably thought ashton didn't sing) but NO. ashton can SING, and every time we get him on a vocal we love it because he is so talented and doesn't get a whole lot of chances to sing live that often (he goes so hard on drums, it would be difficult) but we love a good ashton vocal. ashton also put out a solo album called Superbloom. it's incredible and he even has a live version of it out too. both are on his spotify.
here's the thing. 5sos are very experimental and all their albums sound different. like you can hear connections between the albums. a song off Youngblood (3rd album) could have been on CALM, while another song off Youngblood could have been on Sounds Good Feels Good (2nd album). a song off SGFG could have been on Youngblood, while another song could have been on their Self Titled (1st album). but the albums as a whole sound different from each other in the best way. because you started with CALM you should work your way backwards so you can see how their sounds transitioned and changed between each album.
also you should definitely check out their live from the vault versions of Easier, Teeth, and No Shame because they do sound different and they're a lot heavier than the studio versions. also, the music videos. they're so great and creative, and Wildflower in particular was filmed with a green screen in their homes while they were self isolating from each other.
things you should also check out, not necessarily to react to them but just to learn about who they are as people, they have a movie called How Did We End Up Here which was filmed during their Rock Out With Your Socks Out World Tour in 2015 where they played songs off their Self Titled album. they also have tour diaries posted on their youtube channel that show how they are as people. also on their channel are old cover videos they did when they were teenagers and trying to get their start. actually, just check out their who youtube channel because they also have saved livestreams that they've done and some event things they did. OH also in 2015 they did this project called The New Broken Scene which was this secret live show that fans won tickets to and then they livestreamed the concert. it's up on youtube you just have to search "new broken scene 5sos" and it's the first video. there's of course a lot more content than this but this is a good starting point.
I was grinning so huge through this whole reaction. When you reacted to teeth and said you were looking for a good rock band I just laughed. You had no idea. Lol
I think you should work your way backwards. They started as a pop punk band. You can hear little hints of this new verison of them in their second album, Sounds Good Feels Good, but Youngblood and Calm are definitely a whole new Era for 5sos!
Luke Hemmings is the lead singer who you heard in most songs but Calum was the lead vocal in Wildflower and all the band members sing!
I can't wait to watch you fall further down this rabbit hole. It's the best place to be!
the band needs to see your reaction!
I was thinking the exact same thing! How cool would it be if 5SOS actually reacted to him absolutely LOVING their songs??
this album is SO UNDERRATED
SO FUCKING TRUE.
also you NEED TO check out all of the vault versions! Teeth, Easier and also No shame, it's better than original
It's 5am and I'm on a Beveraggi marathon of his reaction to my favorite artists. Sleep? We don't know her.
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS, I'm so happy. It's sooooo good.
I love how inclusive he is. Literally how he uses “them” and “partner” instead of using “her” or “she” just because Luke (a man) is singing.
It makes me so happy.
UPDATE: inclusive AND HE CAN SING TOO? Boom. I’m sold. Subscribing rn
All you can expect from 5sos is: honest lyrics, amazing instrumentals, great vocals and that every single song you love in the albums always are a 100% better live (which for me says a lot)
Also CALM comes from their initials: Calum (bassist and vocalist), Ashton (drummer and vocalist), Luke (main vocalist and guitar), Michael (guitarist and vocalist)
HOW did I not notice it was their initialsare you KIDDING im so dumb
I discovered 5 sos this year and I was myself SO surprised. I'm in love with this band now, CALM and Yongblood are awesome albums and their old stuff is so catchy I'm just in love with them. All my most streamed songs on my spotify 2020 wrap are 5 sos haha
You should react to the mv of Old Me, they have a clip where 5 guys step in as the boys of 1D! You will definitely love it 👏🏼
When I first listented to this album I immediately fell in love. It made me want to learn all of their life stories!! loved your reaction, also day 2 of begging you to react to Manic by Halsey. 🤍
Start at the beginning... most people go backwards but I think starting at the beginning and going forward you experience how they really evolve... plus the albums get better as they move forward. But each album is perfect in its own way
Watching your reaction to CALM was like watching me reacting to that album bc it was also my first time hearing anything from them (No Shame was my Teeth, you know what I mean?) and I also wondered where the fuck was I living not in this planet it seems, they are amazing WHAT AN ALBUM ITS JUST PERFECT.
Thank you for giving me this level of excitement about hearing CALM again through you. You rock.
Nothing I love more than watching people fall in love with this band. If you ever want to see them live, this is the album to do it. This album his the best one yet and I hope it just gets better from here. I've been streaming this since it released and I haven't gotten tired of it yet! They have come a long way since thier first album.
CALM was the album where they experimented and mixed a lot of different genres together. 5SOS are the king of harmonies and are musical genius, periodt.
CALM is such a breathtaking album when it comes down to lyrics. And the instrumentalisation is on another level. I'm so freaking proud of them.
By the way, the first 6 songs were released as singles.
"Wildflower" is just pure 80s pop, good vibes only, which is why it's my favorite song of the album, with Lover of Mine and Kill my Time.
The title CALM are the initials of all the members: Calum, Ashton, Luke, Michael. CALM is also the acronym we, the fans, have used for a long time. So it's a nod to us as well, which is really sweet.
Maybe watch the live version of "Wildflower" and the vault versions of "Easier" and "Teeth".
Idk where you've been but welcome to this side of the world
I’m here and here to stayyyy 🎶
CALM stands for the initials of their names. Calum, Ashton, Luke, Michael.
They all sing so well! but most people agree that Luke is definitely the strongest or best choice for lead vocalist which shows in their more recent albums. However their earlier albums have amazing vocals from Calum and even Michael. Ashton (the drummer) is capable of lead singer moments (he has a great falsetto too in many of the harmonising moments) and he actually released his own independent solo album “Superbloom” in 2020. personally I think Luke is definitely the best vocalist as his voice just suits so many different genres. But Michael’s vocals (not as consistently strong live) are so well suited When he harmonises with Luke and Calum. Michael and Calum sang a few more songs or parts of songs with Luke in their first 2 albums when they were teenagers.
Luke is the lead vocalist and also rhythmic guitar (but is also an amazing lead guitarist - also piano/keys) He started as their lead singer when he was just 15.
Calum is the bassist and sings the next most. And has a few solo songs like wildflower (Luke sings chorus parts equally with Calum) and also Babylon which are fan faves.
Michael is lead electric guitarist and vocalist (does lots of harmonising in every song) he has a couple songs that he sings the most in as well like Jet Black heart, Permanent vacation & Airplanes.
Ashton is drummer and vocalist. Doesn’t sing as much on the tracks (obviously does lots of the harmonies and joint vocals on every song as they are all so good in the studio) but the nature of their band is that they are a live group so Ashton can’t do as much vocals at all their shows as he’s busy on the drums. You need to listen to their “No Roots” cover on RUclips as it showcases Ashton and Luke’s vocals. Luke is still consistently the best vocalist and is such a strong singer (so nice from low to high ranges)
If you want to start from near the beginning checkout their “How did we end up here” DVD concert movie. When they started Luke was 15, Calum and Michael 16, Aston 17-18 (finished school) Then Luke was developing his vocals as a 16-17 year old while they were touring with 1D and recording their first self titled album. Australian youth had already fallen in love with their very teen/angst EP which thru recorded when Luke was 16. I think Luke was 18 by the time they did their first headlining world tour and 19 when they recorded their DVD concert movie. Then they did “sounds good feels good” which their punk pop fan base loved. It started leading to their newer sound and they toured again. Then they had a 6months holiday (not a break as some people thought) they just needed a rest from touring and then they started writing Youngblood album. They are the only band in the world to have each of their albums debut at No.1 on the billboard charts. They’ve done that 3 times in a row. They would have made it a 4th No.1 album with CALM which is soooooo good. But one company accidentally released 15000 of their pre-sale CALM albums the week before so they charted at No.60 or something like that and people were confused as the album wasn’t out yet. So when the actual week of the correct date release happened they were a 3-4 thousand sales under “The Weekend” so CALM by 5SOS got the No.2 spot. Everyone blasted Billboard as they wouldn’t include the 15000 sales in the correct week which would have put them in No.1 spot fir the fourth consecutive album. They still have the record though (for a band) so still pretty hard to beat. But the fans would have loved to know they had 4 No.1 albums to make it a clean win :) Note when you checkout their Youngblood music video watch the alternate music video concert version (the Japanese Rockerbilly themed music video for Youngblood which is the actual offical music video but doesn’t show any of the 5 seconds of summer band members so isn’t as interesting to react to if you are there for the music)
You should react to their live version of Teeth on James Corden. Shows how good Luke is vocally live. Wildflower live on James Cordon as well during Covid time is great to see Calum’s pitch perfect solo vocals or watch the Wildflower music video which has the band in front of green screens to make the video during quarantine - shows Calum lead vocals studio recording. Finally watch Teeth and Easier live from the Vault!!! They show the rock side of 5SOS and is very similar to how their songs are often just so much better at concerts. As they mainly write with live shows in mind.
Note. Charli Puth was one of the writers on Easier. Sung by Luke. However there is a version of Easier featuring Charlie Puth where he sings some parts and Luke sings the rest. With all band members harmonising as well.
Im so glad to find you while starting out 5SOS you will really like them! their older albums personally are the best of the best but their new albums are also amazing!
27:23 i seen them live about a month ago and i can confirm it was AMAZING live, one of the best shows ive ever been to!!
I really recommend watching their interviews with zach sang, in those they talk about the procedure of creating music individually, but also collectively as a band and lots more. What i personally admire and love about this band is that they like to experiment with different sounds and and musical directions on every record of theirs, that’s why their music feels divers and different than the one they’ve done before, but they also make sure that they stay loyal to their roots and combine their old sound with their new one.
I am HERE for the 5SOS content!!
Luke wrote 'lover of mine' whit his girlfriend
i feel so proud of the boys every time someone reacts like this to their music 🥺
I’m so happy you love them and recommend to continue the 5SOS journey!
You should react to some of their live performances, they sound even better live! Their music is very diverse, I would recommend to react to their album Youngblood. Make sure to react to the deluxe version, it has three extra songs that you just NEED to hear!
"ok so this is another fucking incredible song" same its me every time a listen to 5sos
if you liked this album you should check out their third album “youngblood” too. it’s amazing.
I've already seen comments about 5sos' information so I'm not commenting that bc you probably already read it but I just wanna say that: your reaction made me feel SO HAPPY, I feel like even though you didn't know much about them you caught the feeling they wanted to give to listeners and that makes me reaaalllyyy ¿excited? and proud of 5sos for connecting with people through their music
THE OTHER ALBUMS ARE AMAZING TOO ALSO WRAPPED AROUND YOUR FINGER LIVE
Now I appreciate even more this album thanks to you, the way you put everything out and how you talk about every single track is amazingly inspiring and enjoyable ❤️ thanks again
Luke's voice is so underrated in the general music scene (not within the fandom obviously) it actually pains me...
A person reacting to 5sos with 1D solo and LM5 CDs and vinyls AND Harry Potter books in the background?? YES this is PERFECT!
I feel like a proud mom ... They did a great album .. thanks for this reaction .
the way you freak out over best years. sir, i adore you ❤
Hey there! I LOVE your passion for music- it really shines through and makes the reactions that much more interesting to watch. As for the order of the albums, I think it’d be a good idea to work your way backwards, especially since you enjoyed CALM so much. Oh, and the title of the album is CALM because each letter represents one of the band member’s names: C(alum) A(shton) L(uke) M(ichael). And just like the other comments said: PLEASE react to their vault performances of some of the songs on the album- it’s hard to believe but they’re even better than the studio versions. Can’t wait to see your reactions!
This reaction is everything! I have been waiting to watch this and it was worth the wait! I just discovered them in 2020, too, and now...they're my favorite band. So dynamic, talented and honest. I can't get over how great your reaction was and how it mirrored my first listen :)
This was my top band and top album of 2020 on spotify! I'm so glad to see other people enjoying it and giving it the credit it deserves! ❤️ Cant wait to see more 5sos from you!
30:37
“It’s almost like kinda rapper”
2015 Luke rapping on their concerts saying that he could be a rapper 😂
My new favorite reactor, welcome to the 5SOSfam ❤
So exciting seeing you fall in love with 5sos!! 🤩
i’m in love with how passionate you are when listening to music !! 💓🥰
Ashton, the drummer of the band, who has major underrated vocals, actually put out a solo project recently called Superbloom and it is incredible, definitely highly recommend checking it out. I love that he decided to do that because he doesn’t sing much in the band (he used to a little bit more with their older stuff) but he has a great voice and i love getting a full album of his vocals. It has a kind of 90s grunge type feel in my opinion mixed with other things and it fits him really well.
You should react to their 3rd album Youngblood. Also the music videos of the singles from the album: Youngblood, want you back, lie to me and Valentine.
I seriously appreciated the little tangent you went on about the track order of an album. Not many people seem to relaize the importance of it, and I actually just wrote a paper on how the track order of an album influences an albums success, and knowing that im not the only one that finds it fascinatingly important makes me so happy- also i love that you love them, theyre easily my favorite band ever
I would love love love to see you react to their Older albums (Sounds good feels good and 5 Seconds of Summer) because they sounded so different and I think it would be really interesting for you to react to how different they were!!
His reatcion: *confused happy karate moves*
This is exactly how I reacted the first time I got into these dorks now all I watch are 5sos related content. I’ve never been so in love with a band like this before I frickin love them to my core
YES YOU NEED TO SEE THEM LIVE I have seen them live four times (in their different eras) & they keep getting better & better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
React to sounds good feels good that album give me chills every time. It also help me a lot when I’m feeling sad or angry.
ive been a 5sos stan since early 2013 so ive seen these boys grow up and Not In The Same Way straight away went to my top 3 5sos songs ever, i love everything about it
My fav is Zayn Malik too loved his voice in 1D that's why I'm kinda fascinated with how unique Luke sound. Both musicians (Luke & Zayn) got a unique voice. I acted just like you when I decided to give them a try I even looked up the Album on Genius to see who wrote and sing the songs and it's mostly Luke singing most of the time but they all sing and write the songs btw Charlie is harmonizing in the background too... I'd love to see your reaction to their cover of Queen- Killer Queen
when they released their very first album, i had already known a lot about them from Louis Tomlinson and Niall Horan. I went to their concerts while they toured with One Direction, and it was absolutely amazing. after that i started going to more concerts of when they released new albums. i went to four in total throughout my childhood and i can honestly say, that Calm is the best album i’ve ever heard from them.
You should totally react to the album Superbloom by Ashton Irwin - he’s the drummer for 5SOS!
i can’t wait to hopefully see you react to their other albums!! you’ll love them
They all sing. Luke is the lead singer of the band (sometimes guitarist as well) and on this album, with the other members doing backing vocals. Calum is the bassist and the lead singer of "Wildflower". Michael is the lead guitarist and Ashton is the drummer.
More info: they all are incredible songwriters and know how to play different instruments (guitar and piano). The band formed in 2011 in Sydney, Australia.
I've been a big fan of 5SOS for a long time and I can tell you being their fan is a whole experience.
You're already addicted to their songs haha Welcome to the fanbase. Enjoy the ride!
Can't wait for you to listen to their older stuff. You should listen to the albums backwards, otherwise the change in sound is gonna be freaking brutal.
PS: I would recommend listening to the earlier albums with the lyrics as it gets confusing who sings what.
i just started watching your videos and what can i say- i love them. already you have introduced me to so many songs that i now love:)
I have watched this whole reaction like 15 times I feel like a proud mom every time someone appreciates their music
I just loved to see ya fall for 5SOS! This reaction is amazing!
As a lifelong Backstreet fan I was DYING of happiness hearing you mention them!!! Also, you now need to react to their newest album DNA
Also I discovered 5SOS right as Teeth came out as ther second single for this album and they've seriously pushed BSB out of number 1 spot on my list of favorite bands. They are INCREDIBLE and it's SO easy to get obsessed
i really want to send this to a bunch of 5sos fans bc so many people absolutly hate on this album! loveeee this review and so excited to see more!
I need these other 5sos reaction vids and superbloom album reaction michael... im deprived over here pleaseeeeeeeeeee lol thanks love ya plus YOU'RE GONNAAA D WORD SO HARD w these holy moly no ones ready
Lover of mine ❤❤❤❤
YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ALL THEIR SONGS!!
The one who is singing the majority of the tracks on this album is Luke Hemmings (Rhythm Guitarist and lead vocalist). However Wildflower is sung by Calum Hood (Bassist and vocalist).Also Easier is co written by Charlie Puth that's why it sounds like his style. They are really underrated songwriters. Also you should react to they cover of Killer Queen by Queen and the making off it was for an album which was raising money for Freddie Mercury's aids foundation and the Brian May reached out to them to do a cover for the album 😁. Also they have 2 live albums which you should totally react to!
His reaction to lover of mine was pretty much mine
OMG!!!!!!! More 5sos reaction!!!!!
Omg, omg. I need him to react to "When You Walk Away", I think it's the song that made me listen to them in the first place. It's such a happy song musically. Also...THE NEIGHBOURHOOD! I need him to react to them.
I love this ! ❤
I reacted the exact same way to their album! omgggg It's great to see someone love it as much as i do.
high is actually the closer, kill my time is a bonus track but i'm glad you listened to it too! and i'm so glad you liked the album!
I love it your reactions🥺❤️
I love this reaction 😍😍 I need more 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Also you pointed out the Beatles influence on them - ashton (the drummer of 5sos) recently put out a solo album and you can definitely hear his influence there.. especially on the song skinny skinny.
Keep up and greetings from Germany 😊
5sos is one of the most UNDERRATED bands of right now. The industry has pretty much targeted them negatively for YEARS. they’ve been marketed by the media really badly, so most of their music never gets the deserved recognition. In 2020 when the album was released, 10,000 copies were “accidentally” released a week early, causing billboard to not count their album as a number one album, even though it was. There are many other prior issues with the media hurting 5sos, but that is one of the more recent ones with this particular album.
I really hope you post the other album reactions soon
