      If you want another rabbit hole, go listen to a band called Anathema (from Liverpool). Start with the song "The Lost Child". 😊 This band also features 3 brothers - twins plus their older brother. One twin is the lead singer. Very different style from GvF, but with the stuff starting around '98 you'll get Pink Floyd vibes. 😅
      Did I mention I love Zeppelin and Pink Floyd?😅

Listen to anything live and you won’t be disappointed.

    100% agree with you JoJo. I'm 63. This is the best pop song I've heard in 20 years, I normally listen to classical music...this song writing, the vocal performance...he's using Bel Canto singing techniques usually only seen in the finest opera and few are capable of doing this.

I have heard many comparisons yet they are unique: 3 of the band are brothers and I have even seen a video when they had their dad play harmonica. One of my early favorites is a cover they did of " A Change Is Gonna Come" (Sam Cooke) -- They are not a cover band by any means...The song you reviewed reminds me of "Edge Of Darkness" (GVF).

    Well JoJo, like the rest of us, you've fallen under the spell of GVF and Josh's vocals! Full body chills every time - and he's even better LIVE in concert! STARDUST CHORDS is one of his best - his chorus vocals are ethereal! I'd love to see you react to every song on this album, The Battle at Garden's Gate! You'll be gobsmacked! The lead singer Josh and the guitarist, Jake, are identical twins. Brother Sammy on keys/bass and friend/brother Danny on drums! I've been addicted since seeing them on SNL in 2018! They not only ROCK but they truly are phenomenal guys who care about our planet and the people in it. LOVED your reaction! TY! 🥰🥳🥳🥳

    I grew up in the '60s and '70s, so you know I listed to so many great bands. I swear these guys are reincarnated rockers from that time. Every excited reaction you have had here is how I feel inside every single time I listen to them, even if I listen to the same song a several times in a row. There is not a single band that I have listened to in to 2000s that make me feel much of anything in my heart. It's all digital and fakeness.
    You referred to Josh as an said "angel" and I was surprised that someone had the same reaction as I. Before watching your video, I had been thinking that exact thing about the entire band. This might sound all woo-woo, but I think they were sent here to make change in people's hearts and minds. All ages are listening. They are not spreading any kind of Christian message. It's more in line with Neo-Pagan beliefs, which are very much like the Peace & Love of the late '60s/early '70s - picking up right where they left off, perhaps.

    I fell in love with this song when it came out, and it's still one of my favorites. So different, unique, and it takes me to places.

Anything from their newest album is incredible :) of you want a bit more full on rock and roll songs like The Cold Wind, Safari Song, Edge of Darkness and When the Curtain Falls might be for you. But my favourite live performance from them is without a doubt Flower Power and then Age of Man live at the Red Rocks

    Light my love, Broken bells, Highway tune, Candlelight session, Safari song to name a few. Plus there are boatloads of incredible live performances, they are young yet so talented, for me they have captured the beauty and magnificence of the greatest bands and musicians of classic rock from the 60's -80's all while exploding into our lives with their unique original unheard magic.

    By far, best reaction video to GVF I've seen yet! Another UA-cam dude (cant remember his name but i think his channel is called "tunes I dig") did a reaction to GVFs entire latest album after he heard Heat Above....I think you need to do the same! I'd be waiting to watch every reaction video you post! Haha you will seriously love them. I love all their songs but my favs at the moment (aside from heat above) are built by nations, stardust chords, light my love (the candlelight sessions version, specifically) and broken bells. Do more GVF reaction vids! You will love these songs!!!

    Interesting tidbit for a GVF newbie: Josh (singer) gave up his dream of being a filmmaker to support his twin brother, Jake (guitar) in his dream of having a rock band. They pulled in little brother Sammy (gave up going to Harvard) to play bass and Sammy's best friend, Danny (gave up a career as a golf pro), to play drums. Josh agreed to sing with them for awhile, see where it went, and now he's the star of the band. They have a new song, Sacred the Thread, which I personally think is about Josh finally coming to the realization that THIS is his calling and he made the right choice to go along with the band.

    You said it all so perfectly. I grew up with the rock of the 70's. It was my love for the Band Queen , that started me on the road to a life of music, and entertaining.
    Josh gives me serious Freddie Mercury Vibes, with a bit of Geddie Lee and Janis Joplin thrown in for good measure. This band is EXACTLY, what rock music has been starving for, for at least 30 years. And I am so glad to see it is a band of young fresh faces with Ludicrous amounts of talent who are showing us how to set the record straight and make real , un -auto tuned , un -quantized rock music relevant again !
