100% deep as f.. Get goosebumps everytime and have listened to curtain call religiously sinse it came out, will never get old just appreciate em while he's still here
Yeah, he's a celeb and about his struggles, but it is also relatable to every hard working parent. Parents often work hard for their kids, but then there less for their kids. It can be a hard balance with a lot of guilt.
Man, watching this over at 31 now, this hits soooo much different. As if Eminem had that much self awareness in his music is mind blowing. This is one of those grown man shit songs
I'm 36, hits totally different now to when I was a teen growing up on Eminem, its why love listening to the back catalog and you see so many more easter eggs/references/bars etc in the songs compared to when we were younger.
45 now, Fan since he dropped SSLP but he didn't hit my top 5 or solidify as my fave till after Mmlp, 8 mile Soundtrack & TES., triplet. Prior 2 Em, Wutang was my fave. Top 7 (i got 2 groups in there, lol) are Em, Wutang (idc if group, my list & all are fire on mic except rza, but he's dope producer.), Nas, , Outkast, Redman, Jada, Kurupt. I liked this song back in the day but it's hit different since I had a daughter at 30.. Idgaf who knows, if im playing this especially wit the vid in the whip, eyes start welling up & I can't remember last time I actually cried. Like most men, I bury that ish so I can be all Effed in the head. Lol But, when it comes to my baby girl, ish is just different
@@danielprest5887 feel the same way. I’m 37 now, and have been a fan of Em since the slim shady ep. This song has always been one of my favs, but hits sooooooo much dif now and for the past 13 years since becoming a dad. When he finally does leave this world, this will be played at his funeral, and all fans will play it continuously, like we did when it first dropped.
@@CSpad I cry every time I hear it too bro. Idgaf where I am or how I am listening to it. Once I hear the first beat, I know what I am in for, and tears just start welling up, every time
That's the dopest part about people who just rap as a sport. When they finally have something to say and they make it a bit less technical, it comes out great
Exactly. This is unfortunately something Eminem today is missing a little bit. His new music is insanely lyrical and incredible. As a lyricist, he's just insane right now. But man, his old music touched your soul at its best.
@@Helldog6 I agree.. It just goes to show his pen game at different periods of his life and what's relevant to him during then... There's no lanes this GOAT cant destroy!!!
@S l i m S h a d y ツ yeah his career ended in 2010 I agree with you I love the old em I've always cried when I hear this song because this his home for me
@@prestongower7800 There are also 5-6 songs on an album of his that are actually amazing. The rest will be anywhere from garbage to mid. Like, if you listen to Lucky You off Kamikaze and don't think that shit is absolute fire - then I mean, I guess that's alright. But I will wholeheartedly disagree with you.
2 amazing details about this song: - Almost the whole two last verses are a dream. It starts at the beginning of the second verse with "I keep havin' this dream" and ends in the third verse with "That's when I wake up". - This song shows Em killing Slim Shady with Em saying "find a gun on the ground, cock it put it to my brain, scream, "Die, Shady!" and pop it". Slim is then "dead" until he comes back in the Relapse album with the song My Darling.
Yeah that’s why the instrumental in my darling is supposed to resemble the sound of a chainsaw turning on. He turns it on and shady wakes up. And also when he starts rapping along side the demonic voice in the end
@@christineraffa-diggon He is,no doubt,and,has diff songs,to express that. He def was addicted to the fame. But,to each their own. That's why music is cool af.
One of my favorite Em Joints of all time. Deep. I relate.... have kids , struggled with alcohol. But over came it through the grace of God and many hard years , loss of freedoms, loss of family, lost my mind. Almost 7 years sober and I can listen to this song now and not get depressed , but happy I made it.
Congrats on the 7 years sober Damon Irish. We lost our Dad this summer and I legit teared up when this song came on Spotify last week that hook man 🥺 so I'm glad you're still here for yours. You got this. 💪
@@emmagreen3397 Thank you so much for your kind words and encouragement. I’m so sorry to hear about your Dad. Peace to you and your family. He will always be with you. 💚💚💚
@@ToxicBottledOstrichNostrils he thinks he’s an em fan NOW?! Being a dad will make em resonate SO much more with Stevie! (And that’s saying something).
This is Exactly Why We Love Eminem As Much As We Do. He Shares his Whole Life With His Fans. I Think That's Why He Got So Mad At The Way Revival Was Received.
As Eminem grows older, I'm taking this chorus as a message to me 'the fan' also, when he will be gone, though ill be sad cause i will not hear something new from him, i will look at the sky and smile to him, to keep showing him my respect forever.
@@yogi2983on a swing set an under dog is when you run through and push the kid really high. Then the kid swings by themselves. The main meaning I'm sure doesn't need explanation. Such a great bar.
I always loved this song. Then my husband died, and I take it a whole different way. He had our daughter's name on his arm and struggled with how much he worked, but how he did work hard for our family and their future. It just hits differently now.
That part at the end of the second verse where he tries to go to the bedroom to talk to his family, but the room turns into a stage and he starts performing instead, that's so fire, man, gives me goosebumps every single time
One of my favorite Em songs. The opening line really hits home. Listened to this during some tough times, so maybe that’s why! But glad you finally did this! This video shows one thing but to many it’s about actually losing someone for real!
By far one of my all time favorites by Eminem! This song has a deep meaning for me! My oldest son’s father overdosed and passed away in 2009, and the day of his memorial service, I got in my car and this song played on the radio, so it holds a special place in my heart.
@@generobertson6544 thank you. It’s been 12 years, I of course was traumatized. Unfortunately he passed away in the bed next to me. My son was only 8 months old so he has no memories of that awful day. Of course I talk to him about his dad whenever he wants to talk about him. His dad was a good man, his addiction just got the better of him
This song has always been a favorite. But it really hits home now 💔 My Daughters Dad committed suicide in 2020. Then my Beautiful Daughter passed away March 2022. It’s so hard to loose my heart literally. 😢 💔 🦋 🌺
Underrated skill of em is to link choruses and versus so smooth. “Just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door, their gone, the spotlight is on and I’m singin…”
My favorite Em track of all time. I try to only listen to it once a year because it never fails to make me cry every single time it gets to the third verse
I want you to try to take a chance and help out a youngin asking a question. So did Eminem drag Joe Budden with him? If he did, why the beef? Sorry I like him a lot but I'm just getting into some of his deeper track portfolio
@@choice12ozborne I don't much information on it but I think Joe started it cause Em doesn't operate like that, idk why Joe hating on him cause clearly the man has problem with Em.
@@choice12ozborne Em didn't carry Joe the way he thought. In some ways, Eminem was a hindrance to Slaughter House and Joe got fed up at some point. That's when the troubles begun.
This song is a timeless classic, the beat, his cadence. All sound so good to listen to. It reminds me of what it feels like to be a human and having emotions. Thank you Marshall and thank you Stevie
I remember this song touched me when I was younger before I had kids. Listening to it as a father, it hits so much deeper being able to fully relate to the heartbreak of disappointing my kid because of work. The perspective is profound.
That’s why he is the Goat and that’s why I always buy 2 copies of every Eminem album that he makes, because when he does retire these albums are going to be worth a lot more money than what people payed for them…!!!
I fell in love with this song before I was an aunt to 9 from my sisters. When I had my son, this song hit so differently. It changes depending on your life at the moment. This song is so genuine.
Thank you for barely pausing during this reaction. You can tell by your silence that Eminem had you captivated in his feelings and mind with his struggles. This is why I’ve been with you since 10k Stevie! Keep doing your thing bro!
Hoping he does Stimulate by EM, it's not gonna be a bar breakdown ( it has stuff to breakdown just not normally what Stevie is used to) but wonder what he thinks about it
@@ibeethatoneguy7807 he makes references to the seven deadly sins Envy: jealousy tears u up Gluttony: treasure every glutton Lust: in my Lust Wrath: punish Greed: Treasure Pride:tears u up inside(won't show emotion) Sloth: Button that I touch(like a remote control)
I remember I wasn’t a huge fan of this song when it came out but now that I’m grown and I’m a single father of a little girl it hits so much different and it might be my favorite song by him
this song literally ALWAYS makes me shed at least one tear, its just so fucking emotional especially if you can relate to loss or negative thoughts in any way
This no1 reason people love eminem He let's us into his life through his music "warts n all" you would swear you know him personally You identify with him on a level even I don't understand but I still FEEL it with either my family kids WIFE myself through his music That's what music does makes you FEEL SOME type of way One of the 🐐🐐🐐
This is why Em fans go so hard for him. He just shares himself so openly so the connection is strong.
Soon as his kid is born a patreon has.to get him to do mockingbird. So many tracks he let's us in but that one can only truly be understood from a parent.
@@khornebloodgod2137 he’s already done mockingbird. Maybe mockingbird 2.0
@MV740 better artist putting out better music consistently? That depends on the listener and is preference based.

*Eminem (Ear)*
@@CaddyJim I edited my comment, much obliged for the correction. It was an honest typo.

I love how Stevie didn't pause and just enjoyed the song for what it was
As a father of 3, this song and Mockingbird always get me. Lump in my throat every time.
"he has everything for everybody"
Chills every time I listen to the last verse.
This song to me, represents his "addiction to the game". Rap game.
Nah, he is a straight addict. A A around his neck. He is proud to be sober. This song is when he couldn't figure out a balance when he first blew up.

I ain't gonna lie, as soon as I became a father of a daughter, hard not to tear up when watching this vid
Dam. Stevie took that whole song in. Dam
I can't listen to this song without tearing up 😢
This was the first em song I ever listened to and still do
One of my favorite ! So many emotions in his voice…
I cry every time I hear & see it. EVERY. Time. 😢
I never don't cry to this song even on a reaction,I think when Stevie has his boy this will hit him a little different.
He was only one legend who make us feel..no one can touch him at his way... Plz support him
