Just for context, he wrote and recorded this at the height of his drug problems in March 2004, so probably genuinely didn't think he was gonna be around for much longer and this was him officially killing off his alter ego Slim Shady. Very glad he managed to come out the other end. And becoming sober etc. on April 20, 2008 now being 16+ years sober so proud of the man Marshall is in present day.🐐✨💯(And this song is truly a classic/masterpiece one of the best hooks Em has ever recorded and Em Is The Goat Of Hip Hop Forever! Em is second to none in Hip Hop when it comes to lyricism and storytelling Please React to Eminem “Shake That” Ft. Nate Dogg (Uncensored) Music Video to me a perfect segway for Karen it’s also on Curtain Call as well.)
Getting sober on 4/20 is dope
Congrats on all of it
Wrong date. That was just when he was getting back on track. December 07 overdose. From then to April was in hospital a lot and All under doctor care medicine He may use it. Because he had so much pills in him. And they had to flush out and he had to relearn a lot. Encore is his only album he did when he was addicted
12/12/12 I'm choice to clean out from meth..this date was my wife giving birth to my first little princess..now almost 12 year lm totally sober..
@@mrbgpg8459Congratulations on firstly for being strong and knowing you had a problem. And secondly for becoming sober/clean, your phenomenal keep living your best & most beautiful life.🤝🏽❤️
What is crazy is that when Em kills Shady with that homicide-suicide in Guilty Conscience 2 he then wakes up to an alarm ringing and if you listen closely you can hear the When I'm Gone chorus in the background! It's an amazing easter egg in my opinion
Nah bro that's wild I gotta go back and relisten to that now, I don't think I caught that. He's a genius.
@@FrableRock definitely give it a relisten. I was a little off - you can hear the ending of the first verse of when i'm gone there not the chorus. Cliff catches that and makes sure Karen becomes aware of it too in their Guilty Conscience 2 reaction
my brain just imploded
It was actually the part "Shadys rock-a-bye baby"
20 years later and this song still fucks me up.
Oh yes.. And Castle and Rose back to back... Will be waiting for Karen to hear that. Masterpiece!
one of his best written songs ever (I class them as one song seen as they intertwine and are meant back to back)
@pleaseshush9800 the creativity is masterclass. Writing next level. And the emotion in his voice gets me every time
@@blackmacfeegle The only time his voice gets me more is in Difficult.
@@kuivia that one i cant even really listen to.. Too much emotion and emptiness in his voice... Thats a hard listen
@@blackmacfeegle Yeah I completely understand why that one wasn't officially released, too painful, was just more of a venting session.
Slim Shady - makes you laugh
Eminem - makes you think
Marshall Mathers - makes you cry
bruh so true lol
What about these lol…
The White Guy From D12 - ?
B Rabbit - ?
Evil from Bad Meets Evil - ?
😂😂😂😂
Marshall can be scary too after all he sang Kim
Ken Kaniff - ???
@@EdmanXERO ken kaniff - tells u abt getting head
I'm loving the lookback over Em's career and discography. Happy New Year to you both! Let's hope all the YT BS is done with as well
Has she heard castle and arose from revival? That would
Be an awesome reaction. Tears for sure! lol
This is my absolute favourite Eminem song. I just love the emotional flow and lyrics. Also the context of his life makes it so much better.
Damn Cliff. You gave her Mockingbird and When I'm Gone back to back? Glad she had her tissues nearby. We stan Karen.
Ive been a fan of Eminem since I was a kid, followed him religiously. Loved his savage style, and loved watching him grow. When this song came out, it kicked me in the chest like nothing he'd ever done before. I couldn't speak, I couldn't think, I just sat there and cried. It was like seeing his heart entirely exposed, and the tragic beauty of him battling all the things eating at him on his path to greatness, but in a far more serious light. His unconditional love for his daughter always sweeps me off my feet.
One of the realest eminem song ever for me. This song Never gonna get old. Pure classic. Happy new year guys. Wish y’all the best 🫶🏼
This song and Beautiful are my two favorite Eminem songs. I used to listen to this song every time I was on a business trip and have to leave my kids behind. Dad had to go catch a plane....
The best storyteller ❤ best rapper of all time love him!
Top 1 Eminem
Top 2 Tupac
Top3 Dmx
Try dave
He is a lyrical prophet.
When he created this in 2004 he was in active addiction and hadn't yet gone to rehab for the 1st to time. His first attempt to live clean and then his relapse come after. And all of that is just another reason this one hits so deeply. He was screaming for help in his own way at this point but still not able to do it directly but he knew he had a problem and was trying to do something to help himself by going after the Shady part of his mind. This song always makes me cry like a baby too. I've been clean 14 years and a lot of his work hits me hard in the emotions. He and I had a lot of similar early life trauma and a similar path to addiction. The hardest I cry though was to the video for Temporary. Seeing Hailie in her wedding dress, seeing Em cry, seeing him find out he's about to be a grandfather... sadly very few addicts make it out but that video showed just how far out he's made it. And it was beautiful. When I'm Gone is beautiful too but in a darker way. I'm really enjoying his latest work though because his growth through recovery is really shining bright. Ok I'm kinda starting rambling now so I'll ✌️
Well said
Yes we knowb this.... they know this 😂😂😂😂 he already explained this to her the on another video when he brought this song and video up!! 😂😂 yall crack me up explaining the MOST KNOWN FACTS about eminem wasting your time and all that 😂😂😂 smh
Em not dying and his sobriety is truly a miracle....and he knows it...
He relapsed twice
He was actually thinking of taking a step back from making music then, this was him explaining to us why. Because he wanted to concentrate on his kids more and he felt like he wasn't there for them enough and he didn't want to be a father who isn't there.
He was trying to voice out his fear
It's crazy how the "dream" sequence of this story/song started in the 2nd verse "I keep having this dream" and ended at the end of the 3rd verse his storytelling is just so insane.
I work a lot to provide for my kids. We aren’t in a bad way. But we aren’t rich. I always get asked “daddy why are you always gone. It would be cool if you didn’t have to work so much.” This song hits. But they understand a bit more now. But doesn’t mean this song isn’t etched in me.
Even as a businessman that had to travel a lot. This hits hard.
Going Through Changes
Thanks for all the jaw flapping 😘😘😘😘😘
The little girl who played Hailie nailed her role. Love this track ❤
Cliff... I will keep on waiting for Fubba U Cubba Cubba
I remember.... I cried when I heard this the first time. After this song I didn't think he would be around for much longer. Then he OD'd.....😢. The inner strength that he had to have... to come back from being so low is unbelievable! Unless you've been there it's hard to understand.
Eminem has stated that rapping is the only thing that he was good at. 😊 Lots of parents write letters to their children for them to remember later in life. This is similar to that.
Might just be my fav. Em song of all time ngl 💯👌
The songs hit different when you know the story of the real slim Taylor 😘😘😘😘
I can’t wait for her to listen to I NEED A DOCTOR feat. Skylar Grey
I always imagined the last part to be Marshall's heaven. Him and Kim are together, Hailie and Lanie are swinging together, one big happy family. That's what he desires the most, imo.
They are all actors and Eminem has been divorced for many years. He has 3 children and 2 of them are adopted. He has always had custody of all of his children.
Earlier this year i finally got my son to start actually listening to the lyrics and not just words. To figure out what artists are saying. Recently, we were on the way to the store and listening to this song. He's being quiet. Finally after it's over he says, "Dad, this song is about how Eminem loves his kids and will do anything for them and to protect them, right?" I confirmed his assertion and he says, "Dad, this is kind of our song, isn't it?" My heart melted in that moment.
Thank goodness he went clean ❤🙏❤
Eminem 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Love this song when that album dropped. My fav song for about a year! Don’t ever remember seeing a live version of it though
First comment🥹
Love you guys ,Karen keep it up with the journey in Sliminem’s World😂✨
Can't wait for beautiful in relapse
Is crazy how Eminem change lots of people lifes in different ways, i was 17 in 1999 when i first heard Eminem on tv with "my name is" and "guilty concience" bought de Slim Shady lp at Sam Goody music store at the mall, and since then haven't stop listening to him, but what i mean about changing lifes is that today i am 42 years old with a 16 year old son, and trying every day to be a great father like Eminem teach me in every record beyond his mean slim shady character, he has always had a good message about being a great father to Hailie❤.✌🏻
❤️❤️❤️EM❤️❤️❤️ Glad he survived ❤️❤️❤️👵🏼 Gmaw
More more more
This song has so much meaning for the last year at least!!!
Mocking birds a special piece of art. Glad be all the UA-cam griff is behind yous. Happy Hogmanay cliff and Karen. Alb for 2025 slainte Mhath 🥃🏴
I really Love how you are both sharing this music together ❤️❤️❤
Beautiful by Eminem is another sleeper
I like to believe that this is the turning point in his life where he started to treat the studio like a regular 9-5. You'll find other artists talk about being confused at first when Em takes his lunchbreak and leaves on time. That man has went through so much and somehow found the path in the middle on time
I really feel like I put like ten years of life in the last two years!!!
This song is always impactful for me because I got the album and was listening to it on the way to the hospital before my Grandfather had to have a triple bypass surgery. The chorus specifically hits hard. The very next month (February 13th), I was hit by a car and almost died. This song just makes me think. I also love Eminem's use of strings in his beats. Perfect production IMO.
Man ive been listening to em for over 15 years, this song still gives me the chills to this day. His storytelling is immaculate, that last verse is just so good. 🔥
These reaction channels are real nice to see you guys connect with the music and fathoming things!!!
I'm growing up with Eminem song..now I'm getting older still with Eminem song every time I'm driving
Beautiful should be next 🤙🤙
Also refers to the year nana aka Carolina passed away and I saw her outside the gates of Heaven in a white gown, looking young, sitting on a bench with Robert in a suit. She told him that if I ever left him she’d disown him! I wasn’t really supposed to be there….but according to God I was supposed to hear that!! She is a big part of this journey I’ve been on. If I could only see your guys reactions to some Taylor songs too!!! All of this seems unfathomable at times! Guess I wasn’t joking when I said I was going to take over the metaverse!!
Every time he says the plane he was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes, I get the chills.
Makes me think of the wecovery meeting
“Help mommy! Her wrists are bleeding!” Chills
The fact shes crying. No shame. As a parent to a little girl. I always tear up. Shit is real
Shady can scare you on one song and then make you cry on another.dudes a beast!
That second half of that last verse is so haunting. That's all Em ever wanted.
As a father to two girls... That third verse always puts tears in my eyes
When I was 9 I stacked boxes and toys in the hallway to stop my dad from leaving to go back to the military. This song hits every time
I remember first time I heard this......I thought...wow he's not gonna be around much longer. I knew he was trying to drop his Shady persona, but his drug use is what came to the forefront for me. Felt more like a goodbye song to his daughter than anything else bc of his drug use.
This is the one ive been waiting for 😂🙌🏻 hang in there karen!
wow! find you someone who looks at you the way Karen looks at Cliff when he nerds out about Eminem with subtle smiles! adorable. love you too, thanks for another great video!
If Eminem had actually died in 2007 when he overdosed then this song would hit very very different.
It's the feeling of.. ok this is what you want. You want me away from my family. You want me going cray and using. You want Shady. This is what happens if I stay
.. Shady.
I love when He is Marshall, or at least as close to Marshall as we will ever get.
i cant w8 for Relapse reaction this is my favorite album
6:24 the colors of the curtains is so significant like it represent the past and present/future bringing it back to his albums and the adlibs at the end of the curtain closing and sound of the film reel finishing and kept spinning. One of the greatest masterpiece, inspire me to be a better father, be present be supportive that's what's its all about.
Morning Karen and Cliff. Got my coffee. Let's Gooooo. I feel like this was Em saying his good byes without realizing it so much. He might have just put it down to artistry. Call it the drop that broke the dam so to speak. At least that's my take. Can we all just take a minute to give Em his field of flowers?? The sheer Genius he was putting out even at his Worst surpassed Everyone else at their Best. Just saying. And yes it Should be said.
it's crazy how this song is basically a condensed version of the death of slim shady, 20 years earlier
when you become the main source of her pain.... hits hard as fook that's straight honesty when you own your side of the road it helps with your relationship with self n others ❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Shady never left. He is still there and always will be. MM is just in better control these days. When the bubble pops...Shady will be back. Eminem will be roasting the genre until his dying breath. Dude will probably show up out of nowhere in his 80's with something out of this world just to FLEX
This song gives me goose bumps every time i hear it
Karen got ALL THE WAY through the song before grabbing a tissue?! I think we’re breaking her, yall. lol. I wonder what album she’ll become numb on. lol.
Much love! Glad y’all are back!
This dude loves to hear his own voice. It's supposed to be her reaction, but he does 90% of the talking.
Curtain Call was released in 2005 and he was already having problems with the drugs. In 2005 i had tickets for his big world tour and it got canceled because he was going to rehab. In 2006 Proof passed away and then it only got worse with the sleeping pills and then he overdosed and almost was gone.
i dont know if someone said this, but this song is also for the fans, telling them that he might be gone
It's kind of insane how one word from this censored version makes all the difference. You can tell "these stinking walls must be talking" was a radio edit, it's so random and squeaky.
Uncensored, "these *fucking* walls must be talking", you hear the anger and almost desperation in his voice, it really illustrates the repetitive nature of the dream he talks about having.
I'm looking forward to Karen's reaction to My Darling and Darkness
I usually skip the part where UA-camrs pause Eminem videos and talk about their opinions, because they often don't know much about him. However, the combination of one of you knowing a lot about Eminem and the other being so genuine and empathetic really keeps me hooked.
HAPPY NEW YEAR THANKS FOR THIS GREAT AND HONEST REACTION AND ANALYSIS🙏
Not only has Eminem provided a better life for his daughters but countless so called "rap commosireurs" jobs. Like when reactors do songs to Eminem the majority of them have heard it.
This is only the second or third time I've heard this because I just can't take it...
The song is essentially his life as a dad and a multi platinum recording artist
Fun fact: that part about him missing his flight and it crashing actually happened. He overslept for a flight for Sweden and it crashed.
the day Eminem dies.. this song will be played worldwide. and we will all cry
Castle and Rose ❤ gogogo Cliff mate! This is one of my wife favourites and there's none that can match Ems catalogue
The video was filmed when he was fresh from rehab but was recorded when he wasn’t in rehab.
Keep discussing the music!
i heard in an interview one time that em treats it like a 9-5 he will show up at 9 have a lunch break everything and then clock out at 5 for the day lol crazy to think about really
Man as a soldier this shit breaks me every time.
Next react 2 Eminem - must be the ganja 🚬😂
React to I need a doctor next
This song is one person singing about multiple points of view. Which people turn that into multiple personalities! That brings a whole conversation on how they turned abilities into disabilities as a reversal of power for them to gain false over Gods kingdom and people.
Yeeeeeees finally. I waited so long for this video
We definitely need beautiful and talking to myself pls and thank you
you are evil! how can u do your girl like that, two tearjerkers in a row. :D
We need going through changes with Karen!!!!
