100% onboard with pauses and all your thoughts. Also, rewind any time you pause. I've seen other reactors pause to comment on one thing, but then miss the bigger picture since they paused mid lyric.
Absolutely!! We know the songs, we want to hear what you think of them, a reaction if you will 😂I really enjoyed this one of yours, I was about to subscribe, but this reaction sealed the deal!
Goner live at Fox also has some crazy good vocal fry. While you're on the Fox Theater stuff, you MUST check out Trees, which is the song they have always ended the show with. Spectacular.
Their songs will always sound different/more energetic live, because as Tyler says, their music is created in a live setting. The music is always recorded and constructed having in mind how the track will sound live. The live shows are what makes them stand out. Tyler also mentioned how he spent more time working on the tracks and stems for the clancy tour than he did on the clancy album itself. That really puts into perspective what twenty one pilots is about. And i'm sure whatever you react to by them, you won't be dissappointed!!
Yes, a lot of that extra work is due to the transitions between songs. They really slay those transitions in Clancy Tour. Soon many fantastic live transitions.
Also love the double feature as another commenter said! The original followed by the live in one video is hands down the best way to treat these Fox Theater videos.
1) The reaction to the backflip…same 😂 ☠️ 2) If you ever get a chance to see them live, you will not be disappointed. The energy and the experience is nothing short of amazing. 3) The black paint on his hands and neck represent his insecurities about his writing, vocals, the message he’s putting out to the world. 4) The drums, the energy and the heartfelt screams…YES!!!!
Honestly if you did every single song of theirs I would be so hype for that I love watching people break this stuff down and react to them. I don’t think there’s a single bad song of theirs
First off, as a long time tøp fan, it’s always an absolute joy watching new folks get into their music and enjoy it, and these reactions are the highlight of my days. Myself and most other clique members will never complain about longer videos, we love it all. When it comes to the screams Tyler actually does more screaming live than he does in the songs originally. The pain on his hands and neck is showing the manifestation of his insecurities regarding his singing and music writing abilities. Any song you react to of theirs, we will always show up, but as a musician you may really find their MTV unplugged session fascinating. Most artists normally come on there and play acoustic stripped down versions of their music but Tyler and Josh said “nah” and instead show you how they build it out and in some songs even use audience participation for it. It’s brilliant. Also, you are right about their live performances. I’ve been to hundreds of shows and their live performance is hands down the best I’ve ever seen. They just finished the first leg of their Clancy Tour in the US and hoping their announce another!!
I hope you don't mind if I chime in on the MTV Unplugged. Toci, you will love it! For sure. But make sure you react to the full ~40 minute set. There are short videos just of each song but those are missing the parts between songs, which is really important. Trust us! You can always cut your reaction into song segments for upload, but taping your reaction should be to the full ~40 minute set.
yes, 100%. I wouldn’t react to each individual song video but the whole thing, otherwise you miss a lot of the interaction with the fans and seeing how brilliant Tyler and Josh are when in their element. It’s a super special look into their process and should be watched as a whole.
You've official went down the TØP rabbit hole and you are not getting out of it. Just wait until you learn about the whole lore aspect of their music. I like the double reactions of the original with the live, too! You are well on your way to becoming part of the Clique! We need a Toci and Joe E Sparks collab now.
also! the black hands are painted - you’ll notice his neck is painted too! simple version that he’s mentioned in interviews before that it has to do with his insecurities (throat being voice and hands being what he creates) but it’s a huge part of the lore that i’m sure you’ll start learning about soon if you haven’t yet!!
Tyler has said that he and Josh have always challenged themselves to add elements to their live shows to keep themselves from “phoning in” their performance. They also are great at creating space for the crowd to sing along. Anything to keep everyone engaged. I’ve seen a huge range of artists through the years, but TOP puts on the shows I always dreamt were possible!
I've found myself checking your channel on a daily basis for new twenty one pilots reactions, cause it's been a while since i've seen a reactor put so much thought into analyzing everything from them, from the melody to the lyrics and overall energy of the band. It's great to see practicing artists enjoy what has been my comfort music for almost 9 years. As a recommandation for some proper Tyler screamo I'd say Ruby, which is an older and lesser known song from them. Keep up the amazing work!
Haha I know I’ve just never had the opportunity to go to a live show! The closest thing I can think of is either talent shows at school or karaoke nights at the bar 😂
@@TociReacts If your first live experience is a Twenty One Pilots concert, it may ruin all lives shows for you forever. Enjoy some concerts of your favorite acts now then go to TØP’s US leg of the Clancy Tour next year. Treat yourself! 💗
id like to suggest if you do another one like this, Fall Away! the live version with dr. blum specifically for the live one it’s one of my all time faves!
This, and many songs, is about mental health. Particularly at night, depression is worse. Those with thoughts of self harm, I think he is saying to take control of your mind -- fight it! It's a message to stay strong! "Lean with it, Rock with it, When we gonna stop with it? Lyrics that mean nothing, we were gifted with thought. Is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat? It ain't the speakers that bump hearts, it's our hearts that make the beat." -- One of the best lines/lyrics ever written!
Ohhh yes a reaction to them LIVE!!¡ Twenty one pilots is a nusician where i absolutely adore their regular released music but i think that tthe experience is escalated when i listen to anything theyve done live. Im excited to see them next year!!
If you have never been to a live show before then this is the one you MUST go to!! I have seen a ton of bands live and Tyler and Josh blow them away! Not only is Tyler’s voice incredible, but they are very interactive with the crowd and the production is sick! For it only being two of them on stage they will keep you fully engaged the whole time! A couple of other songs where Tyler screams is Goner live at Fox Theater and Jumpsuit.
Tyler has already said in some interviews that he's not a rapper. He wrote poetry, but since there were so many words to say, he had to sing fast to fit them into a verse. So yeah, it's straight poetry.
Oh, dude! Have you found the right band for you!! Their Live shows are everything, pure, pure energy! Nothing like it and I really hope you get to experience one of their shows. Also, had to chuckle when you mentioned finding your own meanings and no pun intended. You'll get why as you continue to dive!! 😉 And we live for Tyler's screams, too! ❤|-/💛
This is the best reaction to Holding Onto You on UA-cam period, dot, end of story. You cover all the bases and your reaction is genuine, you really LISTEN and you pick up on stuff I’ve never realized despite listening to this song a thousand times (like the double kick drum live). Looking forward to more reactions (cough Goner live at Fox Theater cough)
Oh you give me way too much credit! You are too kind! Have you heard of my good buddy Joe E sparks?! He’s definitely top tier when it comes to reactions! I would 100% suggest checking him out if you haven’t already! Much love! 🙏❤️❤️
@@TociReactsJoe E Sparks is one of the best! But don't sell your short! Your reactions are so good! Your perspective is different! And you have great energy.
Thank you SO MUCH for doing this! A double feature is such a wonderful treat, and really highlights how equally amazing they are live, and in the studio. And the black on Tyler's hands is paint. He started painting his hands and neck during the Blurryface era, to signify his insecurities with his singing (neck) and his abilities as a musician and writer (hands). It breaks my heart, that such a talent still thinks he's not enough! 😭
@@TociReactsI know, right?! That's why he created the whole Blurryface character; He's an avatar of Tyler's insecurities and mental health struggles. There's a whole lore based around him, that they've been building over multiple albums. Oh, yeah: And as far as other songs with screaming, "House Of Gold" has a tiny bit, and "Goner" (Specifically the version from the Blurryface album) is a great one; it's also in the Live From The Fox Theater set, if that floats your boat. "Jumpsuit" also has some PRIMO screams, and is a stone-cold banger, but that one's part of the lore, so you might want to watch HeavyDirtySoul before that one, so you don't get lost..
please please do not change how you react! Its so great to see someone react genuinely! The first time I heard this song was on the radio driving to work and I remember repeating entertain my faith part over and over in my head to be able to google it later at home (my phone back then didn't have internet)
What you say about the open ended song meanings. He has a song called kitchen sink with actual lyrics saying “a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me” and the sentiment of the song is exactly that. And he carries that throughout his whole discography. You’re really in tune with tøp lol
I love this reaction! They are always amazing live and Josh is a beast on the drums and so much fun to watch. I f you want more screams, Goner live is really special. Also, if you liked the Berlin Hype, you should really see the Brooklyn sessions and the MTV unplugged (recommending to hear the original versions as well, maybe double up on the different versions).
Omg you should do the double for HeavydirtySoul so the music and the live performance if you want screams I LOVE IT💖 and your reaction is TOP (no pun intended) as always
Saw them live in September in Philly. I've been deep into reactions since then as a way to keep the feeling going. Your reactions are absolutely the BEST I've found!! I'm 73 and have been to LOTS of concerts in the day - Bowie, Queen, ELO, YES, Pink Floyd, Peter Frampton, Iggy Pop and on and on. Twenty One Pilots are TRULY the BEST concerts I've ever been to!! I've seen them 4 times and every time it's the same... like being transported! You've GOT to go see them live Toci! Their concerts are life changing. And you can just tell they LOVE their fans so much. The final song at all their concerts is TREES. Can't wait for you to react to "Trees live at the FOX theater". LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your reactions! Peace
Best reaction to this song ive seen. Having the live version and the record version shows you TØP is all about. If you wany more screams, HeavyDirtySoul live anywhere lol
I must’ve watched at least 20 or 30 reactions to this track over the years and this is BY FAR my fav!!! Loved it, thanks so much for doing both versions! At the beginning of the live version, all I could think was ‘bro’s not ready for the drums and screams!!!’😂 I’ve seen them do this live 4 or 5 times now and it always hits! Was lucky enough to see it in a small 300 cap bar in London a couple of years ago - the ceiling was too low for the backflip but the energy was insane! As others have said, the clique love long reactions, pausing, rewinding etc etc! Sending love from a very cold Scotland! 🏴
Ha! The line you said about how his songs have meaning to him but it doesn’t have to be the same meaning as him- His song Kitchen Sink is exactly about this!
The extra long repetition of "entertainment my faith" is so good especially followed by the rap verse. It builds and builds and brings so much emotion, like a worship song.
One note is that during this era of live music for the blurryface time period tyler would talk in a different accent, which somewhat played a part into the delivery in the sound of it
The stuff on his hand has a lore meaning, it's meant to represent this darker, sort of alter ego in the lore called Blurryface AKA Nico. EDIT: further into the video, it's the same with the pain on his neck
I love when people pause the videos and really dig deep. It shows they really want to get to know whats going on in the songs, plus their songs and lyrics are meant to be listened to deeply and multiple times to understand, my favorite band of all time and im happy you are reacting to them
I knew you’d love this one, so glad you did both. I think hearing the original helps to appreciate the lives more. He definitely leaves his lyrics open ended. This particular song was written at a time he was questioning continuing. A LOT of the music is based on his faith and he wasn’t sure if he should keep writing about god, or stick to stuff everyone can relate to (another reason for the ambiguity). The black paint on his hands and neck represent his insecurities about his writing and his voice. Plays a good part in the løre. Dude. Wait till you get to the løre!! lol I think migraine next.
Dude you have to go see them! It's a life changing experience! Just saw them on Oct 8th and my jaw was dropped for practically the whole concert. Listen to Goner from the Fox Theater for more screamo.
Never apologize for talking too much! I think the best reactors are people who have a lot to say about the video, and you clearly have a lot of interesting insight into anything music related.
You talking about their energy when you're over here giving just as much! Echoing everyone else that their live stuff is absolutely crazy, was my favorite show of this last year by far. If/when you start getting into the lore stuff, know that there is a whole string of videos that go along with that which the band had made a playlist for, very nice to take the guesswork out of that. As for what next? Can go older with Kitchen Sink, Addict with a Pen, Fall Away...Slightly newer with Fairly Local, Pet Cheetah. Honestly, anything you get into is going to be a good time.
You're fully getting everything and I love you pausing and explaining your take on everything and trying to recreate some of the music itself too! You should definitely check out Kitchen Sink, one of Tyler's very early songs but I have a feeling you'll love the instrumentals, his vocal range and the meaning behind the song
Toci! What a fun and inciteful reaction! I started watching this morning, but i could only get in a few minutes before work. It was so fun to watch you! Some reactors fake Bob their heads and continue without change even when the music switches up, but there's nothing fake about you! You got a real work out! So fun!!
currently watching all your tøp reactions. Loving theeem! I always watch reactions but yours truly satisfy me since you really put your excitement out there, and are very careful to details. It really shows how much u love music, keep going💪🏻❤️
Thanks for doing this one, great reaction and analysis! Don't worry about talking/pausing to much, we know the song and hearing your thoughts and perspective as a musician is why we're here. Heavydirtysoul kind of kicks off the big lore storyline (involving parts of the 4 most recent albums) if youre ready to get into that, otherwise Guns for Hands is a fun older one or The Judge is a great one with uke and screaming lol. All 3 have videos from this same concert.
I've going around through a lot of reactions to TØP on youtube but yours is truly amazing. The way you comment on their music and they way you feel it makes me really happy! React to some more, we want it 🙌🏼
great reaction ! i enjoy your expressiveness, i feel accompanied in my emotion for this band, and i also had a lot of fun ! p.d. i smiled when you said "no pun intended" bc tyler has an album called like that, ha :-)
Dude ! You're definitely part of the clique now !! Welcome 😁I love how you pick up on everything so fast and how you describe the music, I feel like I'm revisiting old songs in a different way, super cool 🤙 😮I can't believe you never went to a live concert, I live for this 🤣 You definitely need to go see them, it's an incredible experience ! Worth every damn penny !
Dude, thank you for doing both videos, I feel like you really miss out when you don't watch the official, even if the live performance is better the videos can be super important.
First of all, I love long reactions with deep analysis (don't care if you pause the video!!)... even more if you are an artist who is appreciatting music, lyrics and perrformance.... second: I loved your analogy of Tyler vocals and the paintbrush!! totally agree... third: in one reaction you have figured a lot of TOP artistry!!! upbeat sound, deep/dark lyrics, two ways of listening their music, so many genres mixed to make their unique sound, the amazing vocal register and quality of Tyler's voice, the way Josh play drums: so powerful and with all his soul... I learn a lot with them.. and with your reactions too!! thanks for that!!! .....then... 15.38 you said: "does he do the screams live?😅😅.... I really wanna see what Josh does with drums"...🤣🤣Ohhh.maaan You had nooo idea!!! Welcome to the skeleton clique my bandito friend!!! ..::Hugs from Buenos Aires my friend!!! 💀👽🟦⬜🟦💖
When you started talking about their lyrics meaning something to Tyler but being open-ended/different to others reminds me of their song Kitchen Sink. You should check it out!
Another great TØP reaction. My husband ended up sitting down with me during this one and he really enjoyed watching. He’s not normally into reaction videos, but he thought it was cool seeing someone talk about why it sounds so good, the particulars with the drums especially. He doesn’t know much about music and said I just know it sounds good, but it’s cool to hear someone else explain why. 😂
Check out HeavydirtySoul, the live version got some screams as well, the black ink on his neck and hands represent his insecurities and is also a big part of the lore
Love your reactions! You catch all the little details! TOP doesn’t have a bad song in my opinion so any song you go with next will be good!! Not to mention the lore that they’ve created! Look into the order to watch the lore so you don’t spoil anything for yourself! 😊
Check out Lane Boy official music video!!! So glad to watch someone go down this Twenty One Pilots journey. I wish I could discover their music again for the first time I will never forget those feelings. I feel like I’m reliving it watching your videos, thank you!!
When I first seen the Car Radio video I thought “He should check out Holding Onto You, it’s a similar experience.” The thing about Tyler is that he’s admitted to unknowingly “rap” his lyrics. He wrote his music and performs in a way that he wanted to be able to cram as much of his poetry that he could. He recites his poetry fast, which made him rap. It blew me away that he didn’t intentionally rapped in his music. Truly you should check out their music from their album twenty one pilots (AKA Self Titled) the music on there is a thing of beauty and should not be overlooked if you are searching for powerful writing.
Ooh ooh I’m watching more. Yes 9:30 Tyler has written his lyrics to have a meaning to him and the looseness that’s in them is for you to tighten. “A Kitchen Sink to you is not a Kitchen Sink to me” You should also check out Kitchen Sink just cuz I referenced it.
1. For more screaming, Shy Away Live Stream version is GREAT 2. To see how amazing Josh Dun is, watch Paladin Straight/Bandito live from Clancy World Tour, or a live version of Morph, best video I’ve seen is Lollapalooza Argentina in 2019 I think.
Keep going in the order , next one should be “Guns for hands”. Already know you gonna love it And that’s not a tattoo on his hands and neck - the live show is from the blurryface era (next album after vessel) A bit of spoiler just to leave some intrigue for you Blurryface - is the main character in the next album. He represents Tyler's (singer and songwriter) insecurities , kinda Tyler's alter-ego. Tyler usually wears black paint on his hands and neck during his live shows and music videos to represent Blurryface and his own insecurities. In Tyler’s case he is not sure in his music ( hands - music instruments (the creation process he is doing with his hands) , neck - lyrics he is singing.
You’ll never you’ll never hear the clique complain about spending 27 minutes listening and talking about TØP! Fantastic reaction!
Totally agree❤❤
Talk as long as you like about Twenty One Pilots… us clikkies love the long chats
100% onboard with pauses and all your thoughts.

“His meaning might not be your meaning.” Homie literally just unintentionally summarized the song kitchen sink.
I’ve been seeing people say that 😂 I’ll have to check that on out soon!
@@TociReacts it’s definitely a deep cut. This song features his brother on it.
Came to say the same!
This is exactly what I thought too!
A kitchen sink to you...is not a kitchen sink too me...
1. Pause as much as u want
2. What a goated reaction! Thank u for this
Thank you so much for watching ! ❤️🙏
💯! We're watching for your reactions and commentary. We can find the music videos ourselves if that's all we want. Nice work again!
Goner live at Fox also has some crazy good vocal fry. While you're on the Fox Theater stuff, you MUST check out Trees, which is the song they have always ended the show with. Spectacular.
I second this!
Bro… you’re getting it… their entire music collections are incredible… you’re going to love them. Welcome to the Fanbase

Same. Best I've been to.
Loved this reaction! The black hands and neck are representing his insecurities. They started during the BlurryFace era.
You could do the double feature more often 😊😊😊 Great, great reaction
this is actually their very first official single and music video
josh still does the backflip 10 years later at the shows
That’s wild!!!

The Dr. Blum version gives me chills and Fall Away is just one of my favorites in general, so I couldn’t agree more.
Yes please do Fall Away!!!!!! with Dr Blum!
9:37 in the wise words of Tyler, “a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me”
This, and many songs, is about mental health. Particularly at night, depression is worse. Those with thoughts of self harm, I think he is saying to take control of your mind -- fight it! It's a message to stay strong! "Lean with it, Rock with it, When we gonna stop with it? Lyrics that mean nothing, we were gifted with thought. Is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat?

What you say about the open ended song meanings. He has a song called kitchen sink with actual lyrics saying “a kitchen sink to you is not a kitchen sink to me” and the sentiment of the song is exactly that. And he carries that throughout his whole discography. You’re really in tune with tøp lol
I love this reaction! They are always amazing live and Josh is a beast on the drums and so much fun to watch. I f you want more screams, Goner live is really special. Also, if you liked the Berlin Hype, you should really see the Brooklyn sessions and the MTV unplugged (recommending to hear the original versions as well, maybe double up on the different versions).
oh please listen to the isolated backing vocals as soon as you get a chance 😄 Tyler is the best
Omg you should do the double for HeavydirtySoul so the music and the live performance if you want screams I LOVE IT💖 and your reaction is TOP (no pun intended) as always
I see what you did there! 😂❤️
Heavy Dirty Soul!!
Yesss with the live tooo
Saw them live in September in Philly. I've been deep into reactions since then as a way to keep the feeling going. Your reactions are absolutely the BEST I've found!! I'm 73 and have been to LOTS of concerts in the day - Bowie, Queen, ELO, YES, Pink Floyd, Peter Frampton, Iggy Pop and on and on. Twenty One Pilots are TRULY the BEST concerts I've ever been to!! I've seen them 4 times and every time it's the same... like being transported! You've GOT to go see them live Toci! Their concerts are life changing. And you can just tell they LOVE their fans so much. The final song at all their concerts is TREES. Can't wait for you to react to "Trees live at the FOX theater". LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your reactions! Peace
🙏❤️
Best reaction to this song ive seen. Having the live version and the record version shows you TØP is all about. If you wany more screams, HeavyDirtySoul live anywhere lol
I must’ve watched at least 20 or 30 reactions to this track over the years and this is BY FAR my fav!!! Loved it, thanks so much for doing both versions!
At the beginning of the live version, all I could think was ‘bro’s not ready for the drums and screams!!!’😂
I’ve seen them do this live 4 or 5 times now and it always hits! Was lucky enough to see it in a small 300 cap bar in London a couple of years ago - the ceiling was too low for the backflip but the energy was insane!
As others have said, the clique love long reactions, pausing, rewinding etc etc!
Sending love from a very cold Scotland! 🏴
Oh snap!!! Haha thank you so much those are some kind words! I’m super happy you enjoyed ! ❤️🙏
Ha! The line you said about how his songs have meaning to him but it doesn’t have to be the same meaning as him- His song Kitchen Sink is exactly about this!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who caught that. 😂
The length is fine...pausing and talking is fine...in fact, it is encouraged. There is so much to great music.
The extra long repetition of "entertainment my faith" is so good especially followed by the rap verse. It builds and builds and brings so much emotion, like a worship song.
One note is that during this era of live music for the blurryface time period tyler would talk in a different accent, which somewhat played a part into the delivery in the sound of it
The stuff on his hand has a lore meaning, it's meant to represent this darker, sort of alter ego in the lore called Blurryface AKA Nico. EDIT: further into the video, it's the same with the pain on his neck
This song live is amazing I love seeing them live been 2 times going next time they tour
That's how it should work: first music video next concert. Congratulations. Perfect reaction. Thank you for takin in consideration what I adviced.
Can only afree with all the comments here. Once again, fantastic reaction. I am super happy you stop/pause to explain.
I love when people pause the videos and really dig deep. It shows they really want to get to know whats going on in the songs, plus their songs and lyrics are meant to be listened to deeply and multiple times to understand, my favorite band of all time and im happy you are reacting to them
I knew you’d love this one, so glad you did both. I think hearing the original helps to appreciate the lives more. He definitely leaves his lyrics open ended. This particular song was written at a time he was questioning continuing. A LOT of the music is based on his faith and he wasn’t sure if he should keep writing about god, or stick to stuff everyone can relate to (another reason for the ambiguity). The black paint on his hands and neck represent his insecurities about his writing and his voice. Plays a good part in the løre. Dude. Wait till you get to the løre!! lol I think migraine next.
Dude you have to go see them! It's a life changing experience! Just saw them on Oct 8th and my jaw was dropped for practically the whole concert. Listen to Goner from the Fox Theater for more screamo.
Tyler’s screams are amazing 😂
You. Are. On. A. ROLL. And in a huge rabbit hole. Let's gooo!
❤️ 🐰
Never apologize for talking too much! I think the best reactors are people who have a lot to say about the video, and you clearly have a lot of interesting insight into anything music related.
Incredible reaction to my fave band ~ thank you ❤️
Bro i like the talking. Keep talking. I like hearing people talk about my boys
You talking about their energy when you're over here giving just as much! Echoing everyone else that their live stuff is absolutely crazy, was my favorite show of this last year by far. If/when you start getting into the lore stuff, know that there is a whole string of videos that go along with that which the band had made a playlist for, very nice to take the guesswork out of that. As for what next? Can go older with Kitchen Sink, Addict with a Pen, Fall Away...Slightly newer with Fairly Local, Pet Cheetah. Honestly, anything you get into is going to be a good time.
I love how you got so hyped up by the song, more songs from the Vessel album please, go Guns For Hands, I'm sure you'll love it!
Great reaction, man!
It's fire in person. Just saw them a few weeks ago and they did HOTU. They can't be beat live.
✌🏻rewatching this banger reaction ✌🏻
You're fully getting everything and I love you pausing and explaining your take on everything and trying to recreate some of the music itself too!
You should definitely check out Kitchen Sink, one of Tyler's very early songs but I have a feeling you'll love the instrumentals, his vocal range and the meaning behind the song
if you want screaming, you're gonna love jumpsuit!
Dude! I just gotta say, just found your channel a few days ago and you have become my favorite reaction page, keep it coming you are the shit 🙌
Oh man that warms my heart 🥹 thank you so much for those kind words I’m so happy you like the videos ❤️🙏
Toci! What a fun and inciteful reaction! I started watching this morning, but i could only get in a few minutes before work. It was so fun to watch you! Some reactors fake Bob their heads and continue without change even when the music switches up, but there's nothing fake about you! You got a real work out! So fun!!
currently watching all your tøp reactions. Loving theeem! I always watch reactions but yours truly satisfy me since you really put your excitement out there, and are very careful to details. It really shows how much u love music, keep going💪🏻❤️
Thanks for doing this one, great reaction and analysis! Don't worry about talking/pausing to much, we know the song and hearing your thoughts and perspective as a musician is why we're here.
Heavydirtysoul kind of kicks off the big lore storyline (involving parts of the 4 most recent albums) if youre ready to get into that, otherwise Guns for Hands is a fun older one or The Judge is a great one with uke and screaming lol. All 3 have videos from this same concert.
❤️
I've going around through a lot of reactions to TØP on youtube but yours is truly amazing. The way you comment on their music and they way you feel it makes me really happy! React to some more, we want it 🙌🏼
I’m so glad you enjoyed all my talking! Haha I know I talk a whole lot and it’s awesome that you still enjoyed it! ❤️🙏
I recommend listening to both versions of all the songs (some have more than two)
great reaction ! i enjoy your expressiveness, i feel accompanied in my emotion for this band, and i also had a lot of fun !
p.d. i smiled when you said "no pun intended" bc tyler has an album called like that, ha :-)
Dude ! You're definitely part of the clique now !! Welcome 😁I love how you pick up on everything so fast and how you describe the music, I feel like I'm revisiting old songs in a different way, super cool 🤙
😮I can't believe you never went to a live concert, I live for this 🤣 You definitely need to go see them, it's an incredible experience ! Worth every damn penny !
That would be so dope!
Loving the reactions, keep going! You gotta do Goner live at Fox theater for more delicious screams.
you should react to all songs' music video and the concert video at the same time. it's really good to see you hyping
Dude, thank you for doing both videos, I feel like you really miss out when you don't watch the official, even if the live performance is better the videos can be super important.
First of all, I love long reactions with deep analysis (don't care if you pause the video!!)... even more if you are an artist who is appreciatting music, lyrics and perrformance.... second: I loved your analogy of Tyler vocals and the paintbrush!! totally agree... third: in one reaction you have figured a lot of TOP artistry!!! upbeat sound, deep/dark lyrics, two ways of listening their music, so many genres mixed to make their unique sound, the amazing vocal register and quality of Tyler's voice, the way Josh play drums: so powerful and with all his soul... I learn a lot with them.. and with your reactions too!! thanks for that!!! .....then... 15.38 you said: "does he do the screams live?😅😅.... I really wanna see what Josh does with drums"...🤣🤣Ohhh.maaan You had nooo idea!!! Welcome to the skeleton clique my bandito friend!!! ..::Hugs from Buenos Aires my friend!!! 💀👽🟦⬜🟦💖
Thank you for taking time out of your day to watch me react to them!!! I’m so glad you liked it and that I was able to do them justice! Much love !🙏❤️
nose running, sweating, out of breath, that’s how you know it was a good reaction
This reaction kicked my ass 😂
Love this so damn much. Your reaction is so real. Their music is amazing. Would love to see next semester even tho it’s one of their newer songs.
When you started talking about their lyrics meaning something to Tyler but being open-ended/different to others reminds me of their song Kitchen Sink. You should check it out!
Another great TØP reaction. My husband ended up sitting down with me during this one and he really enjoyed watching. He’s not normally into reaction videos, but he thought it was cool seeing someone talk about why it sounds so good, the particulars with the drums especially. He doesn’t know much about music and said I just know it sounds good, but it’s cool to hear someone else explain why. 😂
That’s awesome !!!! Oh my goodness ! That makes my day! 🥹❤️
I love that you bring in analysis of the music, recreating it on your keyboard. This makes your reactions unique. Keep bringing this!
You should definitely do more music videos followed by live performances
I love that you did both versions in one video..thanks for that! I also love when you talk ❤
You definitely need to hear heavydirtysoul live at the fox theater
Check out HeavydirtySoul, the live version got some screams as well, the black ink on his neck and hands represent his insecurities and is also a big part of the lore
I was waiting for this and you did it!!! One of the best reactions to this song! Thank you!
❤️🙏
Jumpsuit is a good scream one ☝🏻 and live is even more screaming of course!
GREAT REACTION!!! The live perfomances are always UNREAL!!
I suggest a weekly double feature of this band. Studio version then live!
Love your reactions! You catch all the little details! TOP doesn’t have a bad song in my opinion so any song you go with next will be good!! Not to mention the lore that they’ve created! Look into the order to watch the lore so you don’t spoil anything for yourself! 😊
I’m literally in Love with how you react never change it’s so good! ❤❤
❤️🥹
So excited for this! Love that you’re doing both in one reaction. Great idea!
Check out Lane Boy official music video!!! So glad to watch someone go down this Twenty One Pilots journey. I wish I could discover their music again for the first time I will never forget those feelings. I feel like I’m reliving it watching your videos, thank you!!
The official video AND a live, uh yes, please!
Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater Goner at Fox Theater
When I first seen the Car Radio video I thought “He should check out Holding Onto You, it’s a similar experience.”
The thing about Tyler is that he’s admitted to unknowingly “rap” his lyrics. He wrote his music and performs in a way that he wanted to be able to cram as much of his poetry that he could.
He recites his poetry fast, which made him rap. It blew me away that he didn’t intentionally rapped in his music.
Truly you should check out their music from their album twenty one pilots (AKA Self Titled) the music on there is a thing of beauty and should not be overlooked if you are searching for powerful writing.
Ooh ooh I’m watching more. Yes 9:30 Tyler has written his lyrics to have a meaning to him and the looseness that’s in them is for you to tighten.
“A Kitchen Sink to you is not a Kitchen Sink to me”
You should also check out Kitchen Sink just cuz I referenced it.
1. For more screaming, Shy Away Live Stream version is GREAT
2. To see how amazing Josh Dun is, watch Paladin Straight/Bandito live from Clancy World Tour, or a live version of Morph, best video I’ve seen is Lollapalooza Argentina in 2019 I think.
Keep going in the order , next one should be “Guns for hands”. Already know you gonna love it
And that’s not a tattoo on his hands and neck - the live show is from the blurryface era (next album after vessel)
A bit of spoiler just to leave some intrigue for you
Blurryface - is the main character in the next album. He represents Tyler's (singer and songwriter) insecurities , kinda Tyler's alter-ego. Tyler usually wears black paint on his hands and neck during his live shows and music videos to represent Blurryface and his own insecurities. In Tyler’s case he is not sure in his music ( hands - music instruments (the creation process he is doing with his hands) , neck - lyrics he is singing.
