    it's so good to see a fellow Christian being able to appreciate the talent and musical abilities of rock and metal artists. I do get uncomfortable at times but I enjoy the music. Next double feature for FIV is "The Drug in Me is You" and "The Drug in Me is Reimagined". That's my vote anyway.

    Found your channel today. I love your reaction. I am a big Falling In Reverse fan. I see you've also reacted to Ren. I'll watch all of these in the next day. One band I will highly recommend is Twenty One Pilots. They are Mad talented! Tyler, (the lead singer, writer, keyboard, composer, ukelele, bass, all self taught) and Josh Dun drummer extraordinaire ( also self taught and compared to Travis Barker all the time) started in Ohio. Their self titled album has religious intonation but everything he writes he leaves a way for everyone to interpret their own way. I would suggest Ode to Sleep and Migraine to start. Everyone has heard Stressed Out, Ride and Heathens even if you dont know it. The Clique is a fan base who is loyal to reactors too.

      @@teckreactions Left a comment on your notes about D Minor. I’m considering that D may be a universal key that bands liked to play, whether it is major or minor. I know, as an instrumentalist, that some keys are easier than others to play on certain instruments so I’d have to assume that it has something to do with that.
      It may also suit his vocal range better. He can get high without being required to crack his voice. Green Day used a lot of D…no pun intended.

    Glad you're having fun with all this music you are finding! Great stuff. It's a universal language (also based on math!). Alt. Rock/Emo in the first video - fun sound and video! Why be crazy if you can't have fun with it? ("Some people never go crazy, what truly boring lives they must lead!" - if you know the quote, you know!)... But then the same lyrics and a change of pace........ Very much Anne Rice vibes (good comment!) in the Revamped - tragic romance. Can't exist with each other as they were and did not want to exist without each other as they became. Saraya and Willow mean SO much to Ronnie..... Sean Rooney, an Irish musician, helped Ronnie with this (and Reimagined) - and some Beethoven inspiration! Yeah 7th's an 9th's in a minor key builds expectations - good or bad, "what's next!!!?" !

    I remember seeing a skit on Palchalbels Canon in D sometime ago. Green Day used it a lot. Many bands use the same chord progression as well because he went through maybe 10 of the most popular 80’s and 90’s song playing the same chord progression in D that follows the Canon.
    It may be a pop thing or it may just be easy. I don’t think that this is in the same key though as I’d assume the Canon is in D major, considering the songs mentioned are more poppy and the graduation song, of course, while boring as fucking hell, is major.

I was an All-State player in high school and probably played four brass instruments at at least an All-District level. I wasn’t as versed in writing going in but figured that would be simple enough.
      I changed after my first semester to those majors, my advisor asked me if I wanted to catch up to the 1st semester people, I stupidly said yes. After calculating ensemble hours, I was at like 24 credit hours for the semester and that killed me. Three ensembles, recital, music history, theory, piano, psychology, algebra, some science class…
      Anyway, it was a lot. Music Teachers, or band directors, also don’t get nearly enough credit. There is next to no funding, you’re working pretty much 24/7 in one way or another, you’re writing marching programs, trying to get good educational opportunities for players, etc. It’s criminal.

I'm an avid reactions watcher and I really like almost all of them (and really enjoying your breakdowns, as you did with Jinjer or Nightwish, especially on the rhythm and drums). Really loved that. Now, the thing with FIR is (just as with Ren): They are evolving, especially in their retakes (Ren) or reimaginings (FIR) - so it's really okay to have questions but hold them back until you are finished with the songs. They will explain themselves in time. No criticism regarding your style of reacting at all (maybe more rewinding but that's it). You're doing very well but to those familiar with the songs, some of the questions may seem ... just a bit early. That's all. Sorry for the broken English as well, it's not my native language but I'm trying to help out as good as I can. Keep up the great work!
