Artist Shinedown - Розваги
I'm an Army veteran as well. Served from 05-10. Shinedown's music got me through the deployment, the crazy sh(t that happened during it, and my brother (who is also an army vet) almost dying. He was the only survivor from his team during a mission after an IED went off in the room they were in. I had the opportunity to tell Brent (the lead singer) this during a signing, and he took time to really listen and empathize. You could tell. He gave me the longest hug and just that little act of kindness has gotten me through some tough times after I got out. It's hard to explain to those that don't serve what those simple acts can mean, and I'll forever be grateful for that.
Thank you for sharing your story. There are so many out there that have little insight on what veterans deal with and what little things they could do that could help so much.
Thx 4 sharing that battle bro.. shinedown doing work for the mental health community...guys thank you for your service and dedication to freedom and democracy. In a world full of people who r selfish it's difficult finding the selfless to promote and fellowship life with. There's one group that will be gathered dealing FREEDOM to the oppressed, DEATH to the oppressors, and LOVE & Brotherhood - no matter the environment or weather , using extreme profanity, sarcasm, and competition to create LAUGHTER when DEPRESSION and sadness is becoming our new enemy... the AMERICAN SOLDIER/MARINE (MILITARY SERVICEMEMBERS).. the best and worst day's of my life involved 2003 and 2004 IRAQ .. We must LIVE everyday for those who said I AM WILLING TO GIVE MY LIFE 4 people I don't know. There is no greater love than to lay your life down so others can live. Our battle bros did and every VETERAN I know would have swapped places w them if could have. So they could live. Great channel!!!! KEEP UP THE FIGHT Soldiers.
Shinedown nation is family- band and fans that will be there for you! Your not alone!
I just said on another video exactly this. Shinedown fans are family. You fight 1 bean you fight the whole damn burrito. We're often tighter than blood family.
Shinedown has so much
good music.Go down the rabbit hole. U won't b disappointed!!
Let’s do this! Name a song…
@@TormentedVet_Reactions check out their cover of simple man by lynyrd skynyrd!!That's a great place to start!!just go down the rabbit hole,and have fun!!
@@TormentedVet_Reactions I would look at Hope, and symptoms of being human.
Another uplifting song by them is get up
Who shows up. Who walks away. And who's for real.
Truth
Brent and all the Shinedown members are therapy for everyone who listens. They write from the heart, they care and they want us all to see the Daylight
Thank you sir for your service… shinedown has gotten me through so many hard times….much love to you and please check out get up by shinedown too xo
I am a US Army Veteran too ... I just came across your channel... Shinedown has been a big part of my recovery journey these last few years... I absolutely love your honesty and vulnerability... That's courage right there brother ❤️... IGY6... I now actually work in recovery with other Veterans... Don't hesitate to reach out.. You're NOT ALONE ❤️
Thank you for your service
Shinedown is a big part of keeping me positive as I deal with my MS. My disease is relentless and continues to overwhelm my body. I put my headphones on and blast out, losing myself in their positivity.
Thank you for your service. Your reaction to this song was raw. Real emotion. Let's me know I'm not the only one not afraid to show emotion and it's ok. Being a veteran, an ex con. A stage 3 cancer survivor... I don't have to pretend to be a bad ass on the outside. Thank you brother.
It takes a more courage to be real and authentic with people than to hide your emotions. Thank you and thank you for your service as well brother!
I am an addict. I’ve been clean for almost 31 years. When I first heard this song last year, it hitted me hard because I really relate to it. Resonates with me deep! I’m a true friend for my friends and I am for real with them, as they are to me. I love you brother. Thank you for your service.
Love these guys the deal with their own demons and they advocate for mental health issues! Go down the rabbit hole you will be amazed! Thank you for your service!
Shinedown has so many songs that deal with depression and motivational. They are an amazing band. I have met them while taking photos of their shows (I'm a photographer for a radio station). Brent the singer has a saying... it's never goodbye, it's til next time!
This song (and many other Shinedown songs) are therapy!! They understand us and say the words we didn't even know we needed to hear!
Their committment to mental health awareness is second to none.
Their music helped our family thru some dark times. Our youngest son attempted suicide during covid. And we hid it and never talked about it.
Their music and messages let us know we werent alone and everyone is fighting a battle. Someone is always there.
You should check out their song, "get up" also
KNOW that you are loved, appreciated and needed. Always happy to listen. God Bless, Sir.
Shinedown has impacted my life. If you also listen to the song Unity, it's just as powerful. My sons are serving, and Thank you so much for your service.
They have another song called Get Up that Brent Smith(the singer) wrote about Eric Bass the piano/bassist. Eric has dealt with depression for years.
one year and three months in the dark… This is so relatable to me in another way of just being a depression, going thru the worst time of my life, after my dad had a stroke, and could not walk anymore.
Just turned my life upside down .
But their songs are always hopeful !
Thank you so much for your service. God bless you!!!
Thank you for your service!❤ we love shinedown for all the difference mental health awareness
Thank you for your service. As the mother of 2 veterans, 1 who deals with PTSD, I understand where you are coming from. This is a wonderfully honest reaction from you. Shinedown is therapy for all of us.
My old man was a drill Sargeant and a veitnam vet. Thank you so much for your service. Your a good man and a hero to us all. Never lose faith ❤
Shinedown are a great live band. Have been lucky to see them over 30 times.
I reckon you would really get the song Monsters.
I feel ya brother been in 18yrs 4 deoloyments. The past 6l5yrs have been hard. No one to talk to hesides family. No one teally gets what we go through in the mitary. Keep your head up. I have found music talks better to me than anything. Thanks for your service.
first heard this song live at one of their concerts, since they played it during tour before it officially released. This is one of the very few songs that have ever brought tears to my eyes, and continues to do so every time
Thank You for your service 🇺🇸
You made me cry, thank you for all you did. I’m so sorry you and other vets have scars (inside and outside). I wish we could take them away…❤
Thank you for your service. Have a blessed night
Thank you for your service.
You cannot go wrong with any Shinedown song.
They released a new song today called The Dead Don't Die.
Hey girl 😂
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 you are a great man from serving our country and giving us our freedom You are super humble ❤
Thank you, sir, for your service. Shinedown has hit so many of us right in the heart. They have a lot of great work. 🥰
First of all Thank You So Much for Your Service!! Very Much Appreciated!! If you ever need to reach out to just talk let me know, I am one who loves to talk. I lost my Sister about a month ago from addiction and tried to help her out, so I really don't want to see anyone else lose any kind of battles!! Feel free I and I am sure most everyone would feel the same!!
Just found your video. Appreciate your vulnerability. It’s great to be seen/heard. Keep pushing through many bright days ahead!!!
Thank man. This has turned out to be a great way for me to deal with those demons within. One day at a time!
Thanks for your service and sacrifice. Shinedown fan for many many years - Came across your channel, working my way through your video's. I agree with many of your commenters - love your honesty, vulnerability and emotions. Keep doing what your doing Brother, build a community and be a voice to and for others. Veteran of Desert Shield/Desert Storm. Fly Navy!
Thank you for your service 🙏🏻
Thank you for your service. Been a Shinedown fan for years and my son is currently a Marine. This song makes my eyes water every time I hear it. I was lucky enough to be at one of the venues in the video for their concert while it was being filmed back in Sept.
I love Shinedown!
They are extremely talented!
They do a cover of Lynyrd Skynyrd's Simple Man, although not as good as the original but still an amazing cover.
Also, their song, How Did You Love is so good as well.
I had never heard this one but it's great and very true.
This song is a little similar to Distrubed's song A Reason to Fight. Also, a very uplifting song with an important message. I think you would like it.
I know we only know each other through this channel but I hope that we can help you in some way.
I'm so happy you have your wife and family have your back.
It's hard when you don't have support, it's good to know you do.
Thank you so much for your service, y'all have all my respect and appreciation, you sir are truly inspirational and what we all should look up to for what we can all get behind based on what our country should represent.
You are not alone brother. I also am a combat veteran from the first Gulf War, Desert Storm. I also struggle with PTSD
Shinedown is great and huge proponents for mental health!
Stay strong brother, USMC Iraqi War combat vet here. This song absolutely wrecked me too. I hadn't seen this video and yea it hit all over again. We are not alone.
Never alone brother, always here!
Thank You for Your service and sacrifices made for our sake. There aren't proper words to show the appreciation You deserve. God Bless🌹
I appreciate that thank you for your support
great song, great men in the band!! very touching. you hang in there brother, I'm here for you if you need anything
By the way, thank u for your service and sacrifice that u made to serve our country!!There's not enough thank you's to express my appreciation for all u and other veterans have done for us!!
I just want to echo everyone's gratitude, and express my sincere thanks for your service.
You are loved, brother, by more people than you know, myself included. Stay strong.
Never forget. You are not alone, my brother. Much Love!
Thank you for your service 🇺🇸 . Great review , loved the emotion . I am definitely subscribing and looking to watching more reactions 😊
Thank you for your support and your kind words.
Just discovered you & now binge watching all your reactions. ❤️
I come from a family of served/serving Veteran's & 1st responders. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU!!!
Please react to Shinedown's Monsters & Sound of Silence
Thank you for this... it hit me on so many levels. I'm not military, I was a medic, but that brings its own anguish. Your story hit all the same points I found in it. Who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real... I've seen it a hundred different ways but you touched this 60 year old grandma's heart🥲 (who will be at the October show hellz YEAH). This is what Shinedown does. They show us THEIR truth so we can find our own. Thank you for your service and for sharing your reaction. Knocked me on my ass more than once how similar your reaction to the key phrases are to my own, and for a second, I wasn't alone either. Bless you, thank you, and keep reaching out like this. You're honest, and that honest emotion is a gift.
Thank you for your service, They wrote this about their fans.
I saw them in concert last year and they played this song and I cried, thankfully it was dark outside because I’m an ugly crier. It just hit so many feels because I’ve had people who I thought were my friends leave when I needed them most but then realized I was nothing to them. Their loss, not mine.
Im sorry that you went through the disappointment and heartbreak... never forget that you do have friends, even if we are far away
This song actually helped me out too. Thanks for reviewing it.
God bless man ❤
Thank you for your service! I haven't been through much, but even I cried the first listen to this song. I hope things keep looking up for you with your PTSD - I'm sorry you're going through that.
The layers to this song is unreal
Appreciate you giving this a listen! A Symptom of Being Human, 45, and Second Chance are also songs that would be great for a reaction video. Love the videos!
Thank you for your service. Shinedown has for 10yrs represented Suicide Prevention. A lot of there songs are about mental health. New video DDD Dead 💀 Don’t Die about the human spirit & The Sound of Madness”. Get Up” They have more #1hits on the rock charts than any other band. Just subscribed 🎉JOIN SHINEDOWN NATION we are a big family. Daylight is a love ❤️ letter to the fans.
I salute you, sir, as you served when I wasn't brave enough. I don't know if Brent wrote this with his bandmates (Barry, Eric and Zach) in mind, as he has publicly said that they have all gotten each other through their respective struggles and made sure each made it to the next day.
If you have not heard "Get Up" off of their "Attention Attention!" album, I highly recommend it.
This was amazing to hear live to shinedown is amazing live
Honestly I’ve never served the military but I was fighting my own struggle and this song always gets me a lot cause my other half saved me literally twice from doing something I’d regret but thank you for your service
though i am not a vet at least not in this life, i have suspicions about having died in the vietnam war but thats a whole other story. i can say with honesty tho i have had a couple of such friends over the years but have since lost the vast majority of them so i feel for you brother deeply. Salute and Thank you for your service! god Bless and +Christ be with
I saw them live last year in April in Little Rock before the released the single. Everyone was crying bc we were so invested in this song and the lyrics
This video makes me cry Everytime I watch it
I am an Army Veteran as well my friend. This is my first time on your channel and subscribed immediately. I. Amongst others are here and will support you! We have got your 6…
Please listen to the album version as well. It is even more intimate and heartfelt. Simply beautiful.
Shinedown has written a few songs that are very heavy lyrically like Monsters, Get Up and Symptom of Being Human.
You really should come to a show..you will find a whole new family of friends 💜
Sounds like an invite to me
If you wish to react to something you might not have heard of, I would say Aesthetic Perfection with Gods & Gold
It been over a month since this dropped. Thank you for what you've experienced so others don't have to experience it. Thank you for your service.
How you doing? Doing okay? Doing good?
Thank you for your service
Shinedown fan here, stumbled across you. I have no idea what you’ve been through, I wish you the best in life. Shinedown’s song Monsters is a good one. Have you heard Zombie by The Cranberries, or even the remake by Bad Wolves? Sound of Silence is another good one, Simon & Garfunkel or the remake by Disturbed. Human by RagNBone Man is good too.
I keep changing my mind on which Shinedown song to recommend, Second Chance, State of My Head, Get Up, Unity, Breaking Inside. Great band, check them out if you haven’t already
Hey ….. how are YOU doing 🌺
There’s always room for another friend, if you’re in California, let’s go to the Shinedown concert !
I’m sort of a one friend person, I don’t have a big group of friends … that’s why I like Shinedown also because their songs are so deep, and I do feel alone a lot, so they are comforting
Apologize if I repeat.my pops (non biological) from 12 to 62 plus Vietnam vet! Loves me no matter my big F ups! He is still next to me . I love you, I bless you my brothers brothers in arms💜 I'm proud of you. And stand with you.
Love Shinedown... first time I'd ever even heard of them was back in 05-06 ish time, they came over to al asad and my brother got pics with them before the concert. He got into trouble for breaking open his chemlite and spraying it all over everyone at the concert.
I love your reactions brother keep them up
This song is so very true! He is sending a real message. You are never alone because the Lord Jesus has saved him. I know I am 4 months too late. He is talking about how God is always there. It hurts, but God is trying to speak to you!
Godbless you Buddy.
We could lean on eachother my new friend.
Do me a huge favore, and listen to more Shinedown. They could seriously save us all worldwide, if others would just open up. This band, music is very humbling.
Thank you for your service 🙏. How are you doing?
It matters how you feel.
I’m one of those cell phone lights in the video at 6:36 Bonner Sorings Kansas
Hope all is well. ❤
You should try Unity by Shinedown sir.
4:08 moving forward. 12B. US ARMY. Into the breech
You need to react with diamond eyes from shinedown
Love the channel ❤
I consider this an anthem to human compassion.
Thanks!
You are more than welcome, sir 🙂
No problem! And thank you!
I love your videos
Thank you!!!!
They are Christian band and they are great that makes powerful songs
Thank you for your service. Idk why, but they changed this song. Imo, the album version is much better.
Please react to Shinedown's Dead Don't Die & Jelly Roll Son of a Sinner. Thank you❤️

It’s sad that you have to deal with ptsd,what you lived and seen for 🇺🇸to be able to watch this and have a opinion,it’s sad how people disrespect the flag in any way, music is a way of helping 🙏🫡
I can't say I feel like you combat vets but my way of thinking is to honor you guys, the guys that didn't make it back, and their families is to speak up about the war profiteers. It's them that should be taking care of those guys that came back with severe trauma and immediate family. They shouldn't need charities when people are banking from their sacrifice. The government does not care about anything but revenue and the leaders are just real good listeners and yes men. The system everyone loves so much has waged psychological and spiritual warfare on us all. If anyone knows anything about DEW, I'm pretty sure one was used on me. I literally stopped an assassination attempt on Trump and pretty sure he was in office when they attacked me. I've been gang stalked along with my mom. My son and my daughter are both dead now but I can't prove anything. They say they're producing these viruses in labs, so why are we letting them? I still feel bound by my oath and our enemy is right here claiming to be our representatives. Sorry about the rambling but like you, I don't have friends and all I do is sit on this phone trying to get people to stand up for what is right. Nothing but love and gratitude for all our vets and active duty.
You are not alone brother. I also am a combat veteran from the first Gulf War, Desert Storm. I also struggle with PTSD
