Can I ask a question, it’s even better that we’re complete strangers so I can ask this and get a good answer, don’t you feel really sad that it’s all going to come to a end no matter what, there will be a last time you hug a cousin, yo momma or daddy, yo nana, your puppa, auntie or uncle, isn’t it the least bit chilly to your souls knowing that?
@@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz2176 not sure if ur gonna see this but, yeah. it freaks me out pretty often. looking around my surroundings seeing all the people, looking at the people i talk to etc etc, and realizing we'll all be dead someday. and i'm only 16! that's how scary death is. but, i'm sure at somepoint i'll accept the reaper's comfort to my own death. i'm sure....
Ever since the first time I heard this as a kid I always imagined it being it slowed down like this. It suits it, brings a type of melancholy vibe to this, which it deserves.
When my mom died my uncle who lived with us when insane. He went schizophrenic. I remember coming home from middle school going down in the basement with him blasting music and I remember the feeling of pure ignorance of the world. This song put words and feelings to all of my thoughts and confusion and everything I was feeling at the time. The year I lost everything this specific song made me find comfort in everything. I’m 20 now. I still live with my uncle and he still blasts music in the basement but now it seems like I don’t care about what plays. Tonight I was feeling a little extra emotional I guess so I decided to take a trip down memory lane and with this song being slowed it just hits different with a little bit of nostalgia. Thank you very much for making this song. I hope no one ever understands the meaning of this song or the feelings attached to each of the people who have listened and will listen to this song
there's no need to fear this said reaper . what makes the reaper frightening? reconnection with passed family, friends, pets. he's not out to kill us , he's here to collect us, bring us to the afterlife, help us cross that bridge. he's not to be feared but to be cherished.
It's terrifying because if you don't believe in an afterlife, you are faced with the maw of oblivion. The endless black void at the end of everything. Everything you ever were, all your achievements, all your thoughts and emotions. They are all swallowed by that abyss at the end. The worst thing about it is we cannot preserve anything about ourselves as we are in our living state. Art can be interpreted. Memories become muddled and fade. When we die, there is nothing left of the true self. The Reaper is a manifestation of that cold death. He reaps us like wheat, like we are nothing but crops to be harvested. He breaks down our individuality as to him we are nothing but crops that need to be harvested.
We are not made for darkness we couldn't comprehend nothing. There is either something or nothing. Nothing means no presence just as much as it means the void of darkness. We won't know. We will not understand.
At the end when shes takes death's hand. You can really feel her passing within the music. Every time I listen to this incredible song my imagination takes me away and i picture it all take place in my head. Anyone feel this way about it?
One hundred percent, I have it in my head she’s in her bed with the moon coming in through the windows, then Death’s standing there with his robes blowing in the wind. She takes his hand they they fly towards the great beyond as the guitar screams it’s beautifully haunting song in the background
Yes! this song is definitely a coping mechanism for me. I feel at peace when I listen to it, and like everything is going to be okay. I first saw it on that one movie "The Stand" based off of the Stephen King book. I fell in love with the song, and every now and then I'll put both headphones on and just lose myself in it.
I'm always on the lookout for my next I'm potential cover song as well. And it always usually ends up being imagined in the style of a perfect circles cover of John Lennons imagine. Slower, minor key, haunting even.
0:00 - 3:02 A lone man in black drives along a dirt road just as the sun begins to set over a vast countryside. tinted shades attempt to hide his broken gaze, a single picture hangs from the mirror of a loved one. The long black Cadillac grinds along the now gravel road. A puff of smoke exhaling from his mouth. 3:08 the man looks back in the mirror to see a man in black, a wretched grin upon his face. "do we have a deal?" the man asks. The man dips his head, slowly rasing it to see the picture dangling from the mirror. 4:17 he sighs. his for pressing hard on the gas as the man in the backseat snarls. his true form flickering into a wretched beast. The world slows as the car slides across the gravel towards the lake, the man cracks a slight smile before finally submerging into the cold abyss.
Dude...that's eerily spot on to my childhood. Grew up in the 90s, majority of my days were spent at the auto repair watching my grandpa wrench shit, then once 5 o'clock hit, he would always drive straight to the liquor store for a 5th of 5 o'clock vodka (it was literally called that 😂) and the rest of the night was usually spent parked in the front yard while he listened to the radio and/or his cassette tapes. I remember clearly listening to creedence clearwater revival, fats domino's blueberry hill, and stuff like that. But regardless of the details, certain things always remained unchanged. Rock and roll was one of em.
Listening to older songs is just so nice and relaxing. Sadly the same thing cant be said about todays songs and this is coming from a person who is not even 20.
Edgy. You're not looking hard and relying on the top charts to tell you what music is nowadays' music when there is vastly more music being made. Apply some effort you lazy elitist.
Wow! This. ERsion is amazing. Slowed down makes it very no eerie. This would definitely scare me or put the idea of god back in my life. Thank you for posting this.

There's something about lowering the pitch up or down a bit that just ... does something. It's like you're able to rediscover the song for the first time again in a weird way.
Had Buck heard? I bet he'd laugh his head off! Imagine if they could play it like that in real time - the lung power to sustain those low notes, how to sustain the slow crash cymbals and to keep the those guitar notes from fading. Anyway, thumbs up!
Very cool...like watching the Zapruder film in slow motion one can catch every intricate detail, in this case of the music...in many ways this is better than the original.
Vietnam A mortar round just went off 10ft away from you Your ears are ringing It's the 5th attack this week Shouting and gunfire sounds muffled as this is playing
Then the door was open and the wind appeared The candles blew and then disappeared The curtains flew and then he appeared Saying don't be afraid just genius .... best verbs ever. Don't be afraid, belive me , don't be afraid, ever.
Hey, the movie "Scream" from the 1990's has a slowed down version of this song done by some other band. But it'd work better than just slowing the song down. If you could put that version to this video.........would be kinda chilling. Thanks. Love the Reaper btw.

Don't fear The Reaper. He appears to escort you to the afterlife, not to hurt you. Find comfort in knowing your soul's passage is one not-alone.
Well put. The time allotted to us on this earth is temporary; life is not something to be desperately clung to.

im weak

I played this at my dads funeral it was mine and his favorite song
Same

This is by far the best song to listen to while driving a muscle car in a late hot summer night
Especially a old muscle car
@@mr.n0noob228 yes
Haha Fr. I did it this summer and it was the best
Yup. Drivin a ‘69 Camaro down the lonely highway 🛣
Big block 67 mustang guy here, yeah always into a bit of dark music cruising my black Stang.
Still needs more cowbell.
This song set comfort for me and reminds me that death is inevitable and I shouldn’t fear it
I feel like this should be played over a montage of the 70s. Kinda highlighting how the 70s are actually starting to be pretty long ago.

Sounds very Type O Negative slowed down like this. Nice!
This could indeed have been a fun TO- project.
Wrong.
Wanted to comment the same thing!!! :D

The guitar leads during the chorus are BEAUTIFUL slowed down like this.
Do not fear the reaper, he won’t hurt you he only makes you feel not alone while going into the after life
Really? Maybe i should ask him first

the gif with the song makes it 10x better ❦✞
That guitar solo is just so epic slowed down
This hits different than the original. It feels much deeper, almost as though it was intended to be this way.
Man i just got my driving liscence and i cant wait to play these bangers while driving down the road. This one is a classic masterpiece
This song late at night hits different.

This sounds WAAAY better than I expected, and now I want to make a cover of this song, slower and in a lower key 😮

The gif is from Monty Python's The Meaning of Life
this would make a really good ghost cover

This is beautiful, I love the detail and emotion you put into this. My friend, you would be an amazing writer
The way you thought you ate that
This is my favorite song, really cool that so many other kids find solice in it. Well done btw, it sounds incredible
I have always loved this song. Growing up in the 90s grandpa out in the shop working on cars with stuff like this playing.

Listing to this high over and over till u fall asleep will take u on the journey hes talkin bout💀💀💀💀
LMAOO
didnt know i needed this until now
Love this version
This slowed version will have a special place in my heart because two days ago my dog got put down and i was listening to the this
Still killin’ it dude.
Is it just me or this slower bpm makes it sounds like it could've been written by nirvana?
Hell yeah, Kurt would've nailed this...
Nirvana ripped off Godzilla
Love that cowbell
I want this played at my funeral.
Now this is art 👌
Beautiful just beautiful
Sounds like I took some acid and things slowed down... love it... 3 thumbs up.....

In the end, everything will be alright
Yup, cowbell still takes center-stage
Idk why this has 14 dislikes, sounds great bro
14 music haters amigo.....
Because people have no taste in music
probably people who think slowing and reverbing isn't an improvement. They are correct
They're ALL Justin Beiber fans!
