No apologies, man! This music was the glue that held together all of our broken pieces. It let us know we weren't alone. It truly saved some of our lives. ❤️🩹
I'm convinced a lot of young kids' lives were saved back then due to KoRn letting them know, they are not alone. I was one of them. If only kids today had this.
Yea me to I’m 15 and I delt with SA as a child and I have BPD because of it and I deal with self harm this song is really helps me and I relate to it and I can’t blame him for crying this song is really emotionally🖤
Never apologize for crying. That's one of the number 1 reasons I fell in love with Korn and their music. They didn't shy away from difficult topics. They didn't hide it or push it down. They didn't put on this macho persona. They put on full display that sometimes grown men need to cry and it's completely natural. And it's completely ok. It doesn't make you less worthy or less in general. Throw on some Korn. Cry hard and purge those emotions you've pinned up inside of you. And let that catharsis heal you along with the fact that there's millions of us out there who share your pain. "Alone I Break." But together there's nothing that can keep us down. Much love, mate. ❤
Don't apologize for being emotional or crying, ever. As a 56 year old man I lived through this treatment growing up well into my teens and honestly metal music was my saving grace. It helped me to cope and get through it until the day I finally stood up and fought back. I am still a fan. Don't ever stop and please keep it honest like you always have
Oh man....watching you set me off. Please never apologise to ANYONE for a genuine release of emotion. Too many of us hold back when we need to let go...FUCK professionalism. Protect mental well-being. Stay real bro. I watch you exactly for this reason, as will many others. x
Never apologize for feeling and letting it out. We'd all be better off if we didn't feel bad for having emotions. Keeping things in festers and I made the decision long ago that I didn't like feeling that way more than I didn't like feeling the feelings...if that makes sense. Good music definitely helps draw it out. And #kornrules
Hun I'm 47, and I still remember the first time I heard them. I was 17, it was nighttime and it was raining. I was in the passenger side of my Mom's car and literally my whole life changed. It was 1995, and they have helped me ever since then. Big hugs, much love.
I commented and then I heard what you said at the end and something I was going to comment came forth in my mind and it makes perfect sense. Rap music (more often than not) is an expression of power. It reflects the deep desire to be powerful and for people who are feeling weak the being taken to a place of power can be very helpful for a time. However, it is the purest sense of bottling. "keep it down. You are strong." Korn... Korn uncorks that bottle and smashes it on the floor screaming "YOU WILL FEEL THIS! YOU ARE WEAK AND YOU WILL FEEL THIS!" ... The pain never leaves when it's trapped in the bottle.
i usually just watch and don't comment. but seeing you feel the pain, touched my heart. i was beaten up daily and sexually abused as a kid. i felt so alone as a kid and teenager, i couldn't share my pain with nobody, i simply couldn't. i was always a quiet girl, shy but trying to numb everything with alcohol and drugs. bands like korn, slipknot, etc really helped me surviving. when they screamed, it felt like i would scream. they screamed for me, because i couldn't. their rage kept me alive, because hopelessnes and pain paralyzed and muted me. rage keeps you active. for me it's not just "some music". it is a way to handle my emotions in a non-destructive way, even today (i'm 35 now). thank you so much for sharing your emotions with me and the world. please don't apologize for your empathy. (sry for my bad english, i'm from germany)
The video is powerful, but the message behind it is even more powerful. Notice when she finds and opens the box that the band appears and other kids start coming out of their homes. It's a powerful way to show that for many of us, music is our only way of escaping
Korn is the reason a lot of kids growing up with them are still here. They were an outlet and validation that you were not alone. I know they got me through some rough times.
the older i get, the more i respect korn for being so open and raw. they're not afraid to express ugly, scary feelings that way more people resonate with than the world wants to admit. and i think if the band heard that this song made you cry, they'd probably say something like "i'm sorry you know what that feels like, but this is why we made the song." they'd want you to feel and process those emotions and for their music to help you the way it helped them. also if people tell you to react to "daddy" by korn, maybe don't? it's extremely heavy, and i think you should experience it in private first so you can feel everything without also feeling self-conscious.
7:04 never apologize for not pausing or making comments. It's very easy to zone in when the music and subject matter hits like this does. It just means you felt it. And that's more important 💪
I dont think you are ready for the darker Korn songs, please beware those reactions. IF you do please MENTALLY PREP... KoRn digs into parts of our lives we may not be ready to explore.
Teddy, whatever you do, please do NOT react to Daddy unless you are truly mentally ready it. It 10x worse than this but extremely eye opening and real. Just be ready. Seriously ❤
Dude. Watched a few reactions of yours, this was your best. Korn fan. 43 years old. This one's always rough. Your reaction was REAL; professional 💯 cheers
You never need to apologize for your feelings man. They’re what make you real. Being real takes courage and I respect and appreciate you for it. Growing up I hated going to school because I just couldn’t pay attention and the teachers didn’t know how to keep me engaged so I never felt like I learned anything. I always had to teach myself, which I still do to this day. I wanted to learn, i love learning. I just couldn’t do it in that format. But my teachers were the ones who started beating me down. Telling me I’d never amount to anything, telling my parents I was a problem, all sorts of things like that. I eventually started believing them to the point I was the one beating myself down. I was very hard on myself and that led to drug and alcohol abuse, multiple arrests, unhealthy relationships and thoughts of ending it. I found out later in life I just had ADHD and had my IQ tested and found out I’m definitely not unintelligent. I’m 7 years sober now, succeeding in life and while that time is behind me, those are feelings I’ll never forget. And I think that’s a good thing.
You said/did two very profound things during this reaction... We (children) are only made to feel this way when someone does something to us that makes us feel differently. Then when you punched the wall. This showed the second element, which showed there are those of us who impose pain on ourselves to be able to control it and release it. Metal is a very cathartic release in that respect. I hope whatever deamons have been with you are releasing their grip and you are happy and well. Merry Christmas and happy Yuletide!
At about 3 minutes into this vid, you can see you realizing what kind of thing the song is about! And then a little bit later you can see how you are going to deal with it. And you get ready to fight! That is what this song is for! We need to fight or else this shit will continue! And simply put this was amazing man! Don't fucking worry about crying and shit! You are amazing!
Never apologize for being you. That's why people like me watch you. You are 100% correct, thinking about it and working it out in your head, having that talk/argument in your head is totally different then saying the words out loud, let alone to someone else. I know, still can't say the words out loud and I'm 53.
Hey Teddy, there is no need to repeat my comment from last years reaction, other than to thank you again. Your pain and your anger gives me something to relate to, especially in a time where it is so hard for me to relate to all this happieness people try to share. Releasing these emotional reactions at this date means a lot to people, whose definition of family may differ greatly from the perceived consensus. And if not, it at least does for me. So once again, Thank you! I really appreciate this kind gesture and hope your hand does well.
Found Korn at 13 years old on my birthday when they released their third album and they saved my life. I feel you brother... I honestly feel you. This is the most real reaction I've ever seen. You got this man. You got this.
I felt that punch... Those chants of misery are truely something to f one up. Thats the cause of Korns song. Those who expirienced can recognize and know they are not alone. Those who didnt get a fraction of the pain and the weight, of being abused or assaulted by those who are supposed to love you the most, others carry around their whole lifes. Maybe to fouind some empathy or at least connon sence. However...if you ever need someone to talk to...Im here, and many of your community are too. Sometimes its easier to talk to a complete stranger. Keep it up. And...Merry X-mas.
Young men in my day would love listening to KoRn for things like this. Emotion doesn't have to be soft and fluffy, - it can be hard and brutal. And having hard and brutal music really helps to articulate and feel those hard and brutal emotions.
The right music comes into your life at the right time and I so thankful this music along with many other hard rock, metal, nu metal whatever you want to call it was there for me. There were times I was hurting so bad and so angry and blasting songs like this and punching a bag, or a wall sometimes or whatever to try and release it in a positive way. And then not only was it a way to release anger but these songs became anthems for overcoming!
First and foremost I want to give you a big manly bro-hug and tell you you’re not alone. We’ve all been through something and their songs can stir that shit up quick like. Processing our pent up trauma is a terrifying yet necessary part of healing. With Jonathan Davis he found an outlet in making music, I believe you can find an outlet that suits you. If the last year or so of watching your videos has shown me anything about you, you’re a good person. Much love Teddy! I appreciate your compassion.
This song hits so fucking different now that I'm in my 40's. As a teenager i never really understood this song, it was just another metal banger from Korn, I hadn't yet experienced the wheel of the world grinding me down.
All good man! This came out when a lot of us were young and not fully grasping these themes and not throat punched by life. Definitely has more meaning as life goes on.
This album was the first cd I ever got growing up in my teens. It was on accident as my mom's best friend thought it was messed up as the album doesn't start until track 13. At that time I had just gone through some of the darkest points of my childhood. Watching my mom get almost killed by her husband being the oldest feeling so hopeless then having that abuse turned on me time n time again. A year after all that I got this album. It helped me process through all that pain and anger. Limp bizkit, Korn, Linkin park, mudvayne, slipknot were all my saviors through those times giving me an outlet to express how I was feeling. NEVER apologize for being a human expressing a human emotion brother. You and I are not alone. Love your content. Keep it up
Teddy, you never have to say sorry for being real and honest. Music can move you deeply and it should. There are always going to be songs that feel as if they were written especially for you because of the experiences you've had. That's the power of music. It soothes me that I can relate to music in ways that I can't express to a person. I hope it can be like that for you too ❤❤
I’d say KoRns biggest theme in general is being as raw and emotionally vulnerable as humanly possible. Across countless songs, the entire band write about things they’ve been through absolute hell over, and Jonathan very frequently cries or has complete mental breakdowns in the track. And In some albums like KoRn, Life Is Peachy, KoRn III, and The Nothing. The crying and mental breakdowns are literally like every other song. Korn has been my biggest inspiration in life because of their ability to display such passion through vulnerable topics, and being able to touch the lives of addicts and abuse survivors of every kind. Being able to connect with people who’ve dealt with extreme loss, a toxic friendship, sexual abuse, alcoholism, etc. And not only showing these people that it’s okay to not be okay, but that they are never alone. And if anyone needs to hear it, it’s children, the most emotionally vulnerable of us all.
Don't apologise. Your silence is the exact reason this music exists. It's pure expression, it's morbid necessity. We use art to survive and it must be shared. Keep doing what you do. It's good for your soul, it's good for my soul and it's good for those who come after us. Keep strong. You've got that strong heart that gives more to others
10:38 - Sometimes, it can take a decade or two to get over that on your own - I know from my experiences at life. It made me tougher, yes. But also made me more fragile and harder plus less trusting of others, but at the same time the one or two I trust - when they inevitably fark me over, it is like my world ends as they are all I had/have...As an adult it is not _much_ easier!
Thank you man. You made me feel and understand the true meaning of this song better than anyone else. English is not my first language but your eyes alone told more than a thousand words. Wish u the best.
This is my fav Korn song, from my fav album (Issues) as well. I understand your pain. At just 9 y/o I used to see my stepfather beating my mother up in front of me and my (then) baby sister. He slept with his dogs on the bed, while my mom slept with us in the dog's room sometimes. This album dropped just one day after my 9th birthday, and when I listened to it for the first time, it helped me get through all the pain inside and deal with the feeling of helplessness. Nü Metal also got me through a lot of abuse during my teen years. It connects with your emotions and everyone can relate to this kind of music. I'm 34 y/o now and I've already surpassed the past, but I still listen to Korn every single day. For me Nü Metal is not just music, it's therapy 💪🔥
Honestly man I’ve loved watching you since I first saw you react to duality, I love the way you think, the way you break down things, you really do have a gift man, and your quickly becoming genuinely one of my favorite people ever, so please, fuck professionalism, I watch this because I like seeing YOU, your genuine emotions, it gives me emotions and I feel what you feel, and yes, as someone who has been to a Korn concert, front and center, it is amazing, they even played this song, granted, most of the crowd was all mash, there was a pit, but majority of the crowd was a pit, and we all came together in unison to love music, and that’s why I love watching you, I get the same feeling as I did surrounded by 50,000 people as I do just watching you, so don’t ever stop doing this man, I love what you do so much, and so do so many other people, keep being the light in this dark world
Don't apologise for having deep feelings about this. I'm sorry you went through that. Knowing a lot of us who have been through this are not alone through music and through talking about it is really powerful.
Dude this is a journey you are on. Cry. Yell. Cinnect. Its brutal. I was a teen when korn erupted on the scene. Fuck dude it hits hard. Bands were beginning to strip it all away and put their pain on full display. It connected with so many kids in ways no one coukd at the time. Korn and many others have helped traumatized kids and adults find community within. Sadly i have lost a few friends to suicide and almost my sister. These songs being me right back into the heavy confusion if growing up and not knowing how to speak my truth.
As I watch these reactions to bands, I grew up with everybody who reacts to this song has the same emotional trip but what you need to understand is is that kids that was born in generation X had to endure getting beat by their parents we are the children who have had the worst Generation ex children and corn came along with all their talent and all of their raw emotion and took that hurt and that pain away from us because we didn’t have a choice we had to stay with the parents that we had and yes, I can remember going to school with black eyes and bruises. It was only because of this band that I was able to endure it and not go down the road of just wanting to take myself out because I knew something was going to change in my life is going to get better.
I was 14 when I first heard korn. I was one of those kids that got their asses beat. Korn opened my eyes and helped me realize I wasn't the only kid getting beat on. It blows my mind now that I'm almost 45 and my mother aloud the shit that happened to me. I have kids of my own... I broke the cycle. Never feel bad about crying. We love ya!!
genuinely hope he DOESN'T react to that song tbh. it's powerful, yeah, but i've seen folks really be shaken by it, and i feel like it's better to first hear "daddy" on your own so you can process it without worrying about how people will perceive you.
Imagine feeling like that your only escape as a child. Professional? I’d rather see the human. And Korn will chew you up and spit you out-and you know there’s nothing wrong with you if you can FEEL it. 🤗
I applaud you good sir, no need to apologize for showing emotions while seeing/listening to this, that means you still fuction like a human. I watch this and feel nothing besides some soothing that's it.
These words will fall short; you are amazing and professional, and that reaction was the most genuine I've ever seen. Fuck apologies. When you got to the violence, we all saw it in your face. The trauma of a child. Those of us that share it with you, all wanted to jump through the screen and hold you. This is humanity, at its best and it's worst. Thanks for sharing.
Never apologize, mate! You feel music my friend, and there’s nothing absolutely wrong with that at all! I am a product of the 90s (1987 baby) and it was bands like Korn and others who spoke to me and still continue to have an effect on people today. This song reminds me of my dad growing up because he used to get beat by his father all the time. They have a great relationship in this era now, but it was tough for him growing up. I also had friends that this song speaks to as well.
always got love and respect for you brother, been watching you since you've been reacting to ATEEZ, you've never disappointed us with your raw reaction to music because you always keep it real and I'm glad we got to see your reaction to this song and especially Korn in general. much love bro!
Thank you Korn because with out them at that time, like linkin park they save many live people dont know people even think that a metal band could save and rescue so many
Hello! Good video! Just became a member on Patreon and the video reaction Hybrid Theory pt 2 still blocked for a lot of people, including me. Can you fix this?
Very insightful reaction. I have been a Korn fan for the last 25 years, and I wouldn't be here as i am without them. This is a tough song, but it is a drop in the ocean to Daddy. That song is one of the hardest things to listen to, unless you NEED to listen to it if you get me. Hope you are doing okay.
No apologies, man! This music was the glue that held together all of our broken pieces. It let us know we weren't alone. It truly saved some of our lives. ❤️🩹
I'm convinced a lot of young kids' lives were saved back then due to KoRn letting them know, they are not alone. I was one of them. If only kids today had this.
Yup. I was also one of them.
They had. Korns' music is still out there. They can listen to it if they want.
100%. I think KoRn saved my live on numerous occasions.
Right here 🙌
Yea me to I’m 15 and I delt with SA as a child and I have BPD because of it and I deal with self harm this song is really helps me and I relate to it and I can’t blame him for crying this song is really emotionally🖤
Never apologize for crying. That's one of the number 1 reasons I fell in love with Korn and their music. They didn't shy away from difficult topics. They didn't hide it or push it down.

I feel like we all just had a big group therapy session here and it’s beautiful. Thanks man. You’re a real one.
"I can't always say 'its gonna be better tomorrow '". Realest lyric ever
it's gonna be better 25 years from now...if you hang on
Don't apologize for being emotional or crying, ever. As a 56 year old man I lived through this treatment growing up well into my teens and honestly metal music was my saving grace. It helped me to cope and get through it until the day I finally stood up and fought back. I am still a fan. Don't ever stop and please keep it honest like you always have
Oh man....watching you set me off. Please never apologise to ANYONE for a genuine release of emotion. Too many of us hold back when we need to let go...FUCK professionalism. Protect mental well-being. Stay real bro. I watch you exactly for this reason, as will many others. x
Preach! This man is authentic and I’m here for it.
Never apologize for feeling and letting it out. We'd all be better off if we didn't feel bad for having emotions. Keeping things in festers and I made the decision long ago that I didn't like feeling that way more than I didn't like feeling the feelings...if that makes sense.

Wow, same, 47, passenger seat but my sister was in drivers seat. Korn was pivotal in getting me through hell. Much love✌🏽
I commented and then I heard what you said at the end and something I was going to comment came forth in my mind and it makes perfect sense. Rap music (more often than not) is an expression of power. It reflects the deep desire to be powerful and for people who are feeling weak the being taken to a place of power can be very helpful for a time. However, it is the purest sense of bottling. "keep it down. You are strong." Korn... Korn uncorks that bottle and smashes it on the floor screaming "YOU WILL FEEL THIS! YOU ARE WEAK AND YOU WILL FEEL THIS!"
... The pain never leaves when it's trapped in the bottle.
i usually just watch and don't comment.
but seeing you feel the pain, touched my heart. i was beaten up daily and sexually abused as a kid. i felt so alone as a kid and teenager, i couldn't share my pain with nobody, i simply couldn't. i was always a quiet girl, shy but trying to numb everything with alcohol and drugs. bands like korn, slipknot, etc really helped me surviving. when they screamed, it felt like i would scream. they screamed for me, because i couldn't. their rage kept me alive, because hopelessnes and pain paralyzed and muted me. rage keeps you active. for me it's not just "some music". it is a way to handle my emotions in a non-destructive way, even today (i'm 35 now).
thank you so much for sharing your emotions with me and the world. please don't apologize for your empathy.
(sry for my bad english, i'm from germany)
music is therapy. and you went through a session with this one brother. never apologize for that. NEVER! EDIT: i cried too bro. no worries.
The video is powerful, but the message behind it is even more powerful. Notice when she finds and opens the box that the band appears and other kids start coming out of their homes. It's a powerful way to show that for many of us, music is our only way of escaping
Korn is the reason a lot of kids growing up with them are still here. They were an outlet and validation that you were not alone. I know they got me through some rough times.
the older i get, the more i respect korn for being so open and raw. they're not afraid to express ugly, scary feelings that way more people resonate with than the world wants to admit. and i think if the band heard that this song made you cry, they'd probably say something like "i'm sorry you know what that feels like, but this is why we made the song." they'd want you to feel and process those emotions and for their music to help you the way it helped them.
also if people tell you to react to "daddy" by korn, maybe don't? it's extremely heavy, and i think you should experience it in private first so you can feel everything without also feeling self-conscious.
Strong men don't cry
Stronger men will cry
The strongest men can tell you why they're crying
If that’s the case, teddy might be the strongest man we have ever seen
@@Gen7486 hard earned strength
Also the band showing up in her room was a metaphor on how music is always there for you.
7:04 never apologize for not pausing or making comments. It's very easy to zone in when the music and subject matter hits like this does. It just means you felt it. And that's more important 💪
This Video saved me as a teen, seeing I wasn't the only one. It still helps me to this day, So cry, its good to get that pain out.
I dont think you are ready for the darker Korn songs, please beware those reactions. IF you do please MENTALLY PREP... KoRn digs into parts of our lives we may not be ready to explore.
Teddy, whatever you do, please do NOT react to Daddy unless you are truly mentally ready it. It 10x worse than this but extremely eye opening and real. Just be ready. Seriously ❤
God so true that’s the hardest one to listen to
I was thinking the same thing
K.ll You and Tearjerker are up there too
Absolutely, I think it’s unconscionable the people who recommend daddy way to early to reactors. It’s so bloody heavy
You have true human emotions. Part of why we even watch you. You are real and we appreciate that.
"Whats known doesn't need to be said". That line hit me bro.
Jamming out while crying is honestly so real, keep up the great work ❤
Dude. Watched a few reactions of yours, this was your best. Korn fan. 43 years old. This one's always rough. Your reaction was REAL; professional 💯 cheers
By the way, Fred Durst, of Limp Bizkit, directed this... 🔥
You never need to apologize for your feelings man. They’re what make you real. Being real takes courage and I respect and appreciate you for it.
Growing up I hated going to school because I just couldn’t pay attention and the teachers didn’t know how to keep me engaged so I never felt like I learned anything.

"something gotta give, the parents or the kids, it won't be the kids"
This whole album is visceral eploration of the pain people can inflict upon eachother.
You’re incredibly insightful. Maybe a bit of an empath as well. Pure hearted.
Never apologize for being you. That's why people like me watch you.

Korn definitely helped me through a lot. I grew up with Korn and many other bands. So leading into my teens and 20s I had a lot of dark times.

The power of music, man ❤❤❤
That punch was felt it my chest. I feel you bro. This song makes me teary eyed every time I hear it.
Real Human, real Emotion. Never apologize for that ❤
It's a powerful song with a decent message honestly. Your reaction to it to me was very genuine. Loved it!
This song hits so fucking different now that I'm in my 40's. As a teenager i never really understood this song, it was just another metal banger from Korn, I hadn't yet experienced the wheel of the world grinding me down.
All good man! This came out when a lot of us were young and not fully grasping these themes and not throat punched by life. Definitely has more meaning as life goes on.
I love the emotion bro! Humans feel all kinds of things. It was cool you connected with Korn. They are truly one of a kind!!
This album was the first cd I ever got growing up in my teens. It was on accident as my mom's best friend thought it was messed up as the album doesn't start until track 13. At that time I had just gone through some of the darkest points of my childhood. Watching my mom get almost killed by her husband being the oldest feeling so hopeless then having that abuse turned on me time n time again. A year after all that I got this album. It helped me process through all that pain and anger. Limp bizkit, Korn, Linkin park, mudvayne, slipknot were all my saviors through those times giving me an outlet to express how I was feeling. NEVER apologize for being a human expressing a human emotion brother. You and I are not alone. Love your content. Keep it up
Teddy, you never have to say sorry for being real and honest. Music can move you deeply and it should. There are always going to be songs that feel as if they were written especially for you because of the experiences you've had. That's the power of music. It soothes me that I can relate to music in ways that I can't express to a person.
I hope it can be like that for you too ❤❤
THIS/IS/KORN! Hugs from brozil Broda!!!
Went to their concert last November… can’t believe it’s been 25 years of Korn … that concert was so cathartic 😮💨
To echo the other comments, “Daddy” is rough to get through. Prepare your headspace but we are here for you
Facts... I was going to suggest this
I’d say KoRns biggest theme in general is being as raw and emotionally vulnerable as humanly possible. Across countless songs, the entire band write about things they’ve been through absolute hell over, and Jonathan very frequently cries or has complete mental breakdowns in the track. And In some albums like KoRn, Life Is Peachy, KoRn III, and The Nothing. The crying and mental breakdowns are literally like every other song. Korn has been my biggest inspiration in life because of their ability to display such passion through vulnerable topics, and being able to touch the lives of addicts and abuse survivors of every kind. Being able to connect with people who’ve dealt with extreme loss, a toxic friendship, sexual abuse, alcoholism, etc. And not only showing these people that it’s okay to not be okay, but that they are never alone. And if anyone needs to hear it, it’s children, the most emotionally vulnerable of us all.
Don't apologise. Your silence is the exact reason this music exists. It's pure expression, it's morbid necessity. We use art to survive and it must be shared. Keep doing what you do. It's good for your soul, it's good for my soul and it's good for those who come after us. Keep strong. You've got that strong heart that gives more to others
I appreciate you man!
10:38 - Sometimes, it can take a decade or two to get over that on your own - I know from my experiences at life. It made me tougher, yes. But also made me more fragile and harder plus less trusting of others, but at the same time the one or two I trust - when they inevitably fark me over, it is like my world ends as they are all I had/have...As an adult it is not _much_ easier!
Thank you man. You made me feel and understand the true meaning of this song better than anyone else. English is not my first language but your eyes alone told more than a thousand words.
Wish u the best.
This is my fav Korn song, from my fav album (Issues) as well. I understand your pain. At just 9 y/o I used to see my stepfather beating my mother up in front of me and my (then) baby sister. He slept with his dogs on the bed, while my mom slept with us in the dog's room sometimes. This album dropped just one day after my 9th birthday, and when I listened to it for the first time, it helped me get through all the pain inside and deal with the feeling of helplessness. Nü Metal also got me through a lot of abuse during my teen years. It connects with your emotions and everyone can relate to this kind of music. I'm 34 y/o now and I've already surpassed the past, but I still listen to Korn every single day. For me Nü Metal is not just music, it's therapy 💪🔥
Ted has the best reactions ever
I am a survivor because of Korn 💯. They got me through so much in my childhood it's insane. Always keep your head up, there is always tomorrow
Honestly man I’ve loved watching you since I first saw you react to duality, I love the way you think, the way you break down things, you really do have a gift man, and your quickly becoming genuinely one of my favorite people ever, so please, fuck professionalism, I watch this because I like seeing YOU, your genuine emotions, it gives me emotions and I feel what you feel, and yes, as someone who has been to a Korn concert, front and center, it is amazing, they even played this song, granted, most of the crowd was all mash, there was a pit, but majority of the crowd was a pit, and we all came together in unison to love music, and that’s why I love watching you, I get the same feeling as I did surrounded by 50,000 people as I do just watching you, so don’t ever stop doing this man, I love what you do so much, and so do so many other people, keep being the light in this dark world
Yes
so glad you came back to Korn, thought folks had put you off with Twisted Transistor, they have so many bangers
No bs Teddy if you ever find yourself in Vegas, coffee and/or tea is on me bruv. You're a real one 🤘
Don't stop please ❤
“Why do people live so closely to corrosive materials?” Lol that’s Oildale - where Korn and I both grew up. Appreciate your reaction, brother
You are one of us metalheads ❤
Don't apologise for having deep feelings about this. I'm sorry you went through that. Knowing a lot of us who have been through this are not alone through music and through talking about it is really powerful.
Dude this is a journey you are on. Cry. Yell. Cinnect. Its brutal. I was a teen when korn erupted on the scene. Fuck dude it hits hard. Bands were beginning to strip it all away and put their pain on full display. It connected with so many kids in ways no one coukd at the time. Korn and many others have helped traumatized kids and adults find community within. Sadly i have lost a few friends to suicide and almost my sister. These songs being me right back into the heavy confusion if growing up and not knowing how to speak my truth.
As I watch these reactions to bands, I grew up with everybody who reacts to this song has the same emotional trip but what you need to understand is is that kids that was born in generation X had to endure getting beat by their parents we are the children who have had the worst Generation ex children and corn came along with all their talent and all of their raw emotion and took that hurt and that pain away from us because we didn’t have a choice we had to stay with the parents that we had and yes, I can remember going to school with black eyes and bruises. It was only because of this band that I was able to endure it and not go down the road of just wanting to take myself out because I knew something was going to change in my life is going to get better.
I was 14 when I first heard korn. I was one of those kids that got their asses beat. Korn opened my eyes and helped me realize I wasn't the only kid getting beat on. It blows my mind now that I'm almost 45 and my mother aloud the shit that happened to me. I have kids of my own... I broke the cycle. Never feel bad about crying. We love ya!!
i hope im not the only one here that want to see his reaction korn daddy
Thought this was gonna be daddy with that title
Same here
genuinely hope he DOESN'T react to that song tbh. it's powerful, yeah, but i've seen folks really be shaken by it, and i feel like it's better to first hear "daddy" on your own so you can process it without worrying about how people will perceive you.
Imagine feeling like that your only escape as a child. Professional? I’d rather see the human. And Korn will chew you up and spit you out-and you know there’s nothing wrong with you if you can FEEL it. 🤗
I 100% echo @Monius13 here... feel how you FEEL... and know that you're not alone.... keep doin you my friend.
I applaud you good sir, no need to apologize for showing emotions while seeing/listening to this, that means you still fuction like a human. I watch this and feel nothing besides some soothing that's it.
Greets from Germany my british friend.Keep up the good work❤
I haven't subscribed to someone so fucking fast before this. 👌
When I saw that you were trying not to cry watching Korn, I immediately thought of "Daddy"... I thought, Noooooo!!! Don't do it!!! Lmao
Bro korn daddy song would destroy you from the insides.
Showing your emotions is not a weakness, Teddy
These words will fall short; you are amazing and professional, and that reaction was the most genuine I've ever seen. Fuck apologies. When you got to the violence, we all saw it in your face. The trauma of a child. Those of us that share it with you, all wanted to jump through the screen and hold you. This is humanity, at its best and it's worst. Thanks for sharing.
Would love to see Don’t Look Away (The Plot in You) challenge, another visceral video!
My very favorite reactions of yours are the ones that are unprofessional. This is one of my favorites.
❤❤❤❤
Never apologize, mate! You feel music my friend, and there’s nothing absolutely wrong with that at all! I am a product of the 90s (1987 baby) and it was bands like Korn and others who spoke to me and still continue to have an effect on people today. This song reminds me of my dad growing up because he used to get beat by his father all the time. They have a great relationship in this era now, but it was tough for him growing up. I also had friends that this song speaks to as well.
I'm 36, this album came out when I was in school. Kinda kept me going through very though times.
always got love and respect for you brother, been watching you since you've been reacting to ATEEZ, you've never disappointed us with your raw reaction to music because you always keep it real and I'm glad we got to see your reaction to this song and especially Korn in general. much love bro!
Korn and Adidas have collaborated on a clothing line.
Merry Xmas Teddy, thanks for all you do
You always keep it real. Love your reaction.💪🏽💪🏽🙏🏼🙏🏼
React to Parkway Drive - Dark Days
Thank you Korn because with out them at that time, like linkin park they save many live people dont know people even think that a metal band could save and rescue so many
You belong here with us teddy!! we got you…
Hello! Good video! Just became a member on Patreon and the video reaction Hybrid Theory pt 2 still blocked for a lot of people, including me. Can you fix this?
Alone I break, Make me Bad, Right Now, Did My Time, Freak on a Leash, Thoughtless.. All good Korn songs you should check out!
This is the cool thing about music and the internet. I've never met you, but here we are, crying together. Beautiful.
Korn - Cameltosis
Korn - Clown
Korn - Good God
Good god.... that track... whew.... still fire in 2024.
I’d rather cry with you than you put on a fake face for “professionalism”. Much love, brother.
I just know that if you haven’t listened to it already, daddy by korn will definitely result in tears
Hands down best reaction I’ve ever seen, I felt this song felt u feeling the song
Very insightful reaction. I have been a Korn fan for the last 25 years, and I wouldn't be here as i am without them. This is a tough song, but it is a drop in the ocean to Daddy. That song is one of the hardest things to listen to, unless you NEED to listen to it if you get me. Hope you are doing okay.
Alone I Break is another emotional one.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
