    Tom said the Instagram post line was a little tongue & cheek. In this song Tom is first talking to himself about being a liar. Also these lines shows his personality. He is full of humor, satire & sarcasm. Also mixed in with love . Great reaction. Tom on his albums shows ALL his sides. Thank you for your commentary as well. #hangovergang forever 💕 🔥 🔥

    I think, for a lot of us, this one is a life anthem.
    Tom's song Cancer (not about mental health but, well... cancer) has some lyrics that I think fit the hole some can find themselves in when their mental health is low.
    You won't know how to be brave,
    until you choose to fight when you're afraid.
    And you can't experience strength,
    until you struggle to carry the weight.
    And you won't know why you have faith,
    until you look the devil in his face.
    And you don't know what you can take,
    until you realize you didn't break.

    I opened UA-cam and your video was at the top. I have never run across your channel before. I was moved by your story about enjoying Touched By an Angel until you became a non-believing adult. I appreciate that you have created a space where people can share their stories and find support. I am all too familiar with battling depression. I prayed for you while watching this and I'm moved to continue to do so. I pray that your channel will grow into a great ministry and that you will experience personal healing in ways you never imagined. 🙏🏽

    Tom MacDonald is an amazing artist. I'm so glad you reacted to him and sharing him with new faces. He gets it, he's been there.. as always, he's preaching the truth and cares about everyone's well being. "Church" and "Castles" are very uplifting too. He's the realest artists in this day. These hit home because we've all been there or we still are. Welcome to the HOG family 😁

    Not going to lie... i cried the first time I heard it... and probably the next 10 as well.
    as you go down the rabbit hole you'll learn Tom transcends genre, the genre is "Tom".
    Some of my favorite songs of his are not purely hip hop, and not remotely controversial...
    Names, Castles, Scars, Church, Heart Emojis...
    his 2 new albums have some just outstanding non-controversial songs (not released as singles/videos.... Yet): Save a Life, Ghost, End of the World, Wild Ones, Getting Old

    You popped up in my feed, today, this is the first time I've watched one of your reactions and I have to say thank you. Tom is an amazing artist. I went back and watched each of your reactions with Tom. With your take on America and Brainwashed I believe was on spot on, and I think you would enjoy the System, and Sheeple by Tom, that have been dropped in the pas 3 months. I like the fact that you don't always agree, but your willing to listen and still take something away from it. If we could do that more often as individuals in society, we all would be in a better place as individuals and as a society as a whole. Thank you again! Oh yeah new sub here.

It’s for this reason that we all need to respect and appreciate that not everyone needs to be in lockstep in every aspect of life, there will be differences of opinion, and we are all better for it.

    An older song that most people love on listening to it is Castles. He wrote it when he & Nova were still struggling and they had roamed the streets talking to people about their lives and the song was born. Another one is I Wish. I don't think he was being sarcastic as I think he probably visits those sites as well because of his own depression and he looked serious when he said it in the song with a painful look on his face.🙏🏽🤙🏽✌🏽#HOG4EVER

    Hi Amanda, just found your channel, love watching music reaction videos and love that you have created this channel! Music is so important to me for my own mental health. And wanted to recommend the band - Nothing But Thieves- The lead singer Conor Mason is very open about his own struggles with mental health, and has recently been working on projects to promote and talk about mental health. Even producing a new solo music project under the name - Man made Sunshine.
    Think you would really appreciate what he’s doing and would love to see your thought on him and his work.
    Conor is a classically trained vocalist and his voice is beautiful. Highly recommend listening to these songs -
    Nothing But Thieves -
    Particles
    Soda
    Broken Machine
    & Impossible (Live at abbey road)
    And all songs from his - Man-Made sunshine album. Xx

    Anger comes from being emotianal of physically being backed up in a corner. How you react to it is a mental exercise, one that is hard to take on. Anger is the easy way out. I know, I have punched my share of holes in wall and doors. Actual strength come through restraining that emotion. To feel it, and understanding it, rather the act on it. It's hard, sometimes might feel impossible, but it's not. Anger is a symptome, not an end-all.
    Anger doesn't just appear, it has to have a root, and finding the root is the end-all. The most valueable thing.

    Hey I would like to point out that the reason you feel empty is because your soul is burning for Jesus..( now I know this could step on a lot peoples toes) but the truth is that I'm a firm believer in that your brain, body, physically, mental, soul craves things its needs know it would make you feel better but because saten has pulled the curtains over are eyes...your really craving a relationship with Jesus ( how do I know that?) Because I lived that life of anxiety and depression and stress and self harm and suicidal thoughts and I leaned on Jesus and it has made me happier and not one thought of suicide or self harm sense then
