WOW man, I've watched 20-30 reactions to this video (obsessed, i know haha) and I gotta say your reaction is my favorite because you delve into the lyrics and talk about the rollercoaster of emotions in the song and how it relates to addiction. Other people stop the song and talk about 1 or 2 lines but you examine the song as a whole and you brought up points i never thought of. Well done Sir :D
I was going to say the exact same thing , he delved deep into the meaning of the song and I subbed for that reason. I genuinely enjoyed his entire reaction which never happens.
the way he explains the build up/falls to relapsing is something i never considered but makes so much sense. beautiful composition and fantastic review!
Yes dude! You were the first person I've seen react to this who absolutely understood what Ronnie was trying to convey with the composition of the music and content of the lyrics spot on man you really get it.
I bet he didn't say that he made it because an Irish musician sent him his piano version of the original and Ronnie loved it so asked him to record it in a studio and send it over to him and he will give full credit.
@@FinneousPJ1 it's the exact same song, listen to the lyrics they're exactly the same, the only difference is the genre/twist he takes on the delivery, also the original is fucking great
@@FinneousPJ1 structurally and lyrically it is the same song. It's a ballad reimagining of the first version of the song. Intro Verse Pre-chours Chorus Verse Pre-chrorus Chorus Solo Bridge Chorus. The main addition is the outro, and the complete genre/style swap.
I really enjoy the way you analyzed the ending as the exclamation mark at the end of a sentence. That's so perfect. I'm glad to see you enjoyed the song and the curveballs it threw at ya!
Friend, I’ve seen a lot of reactions to this song but this is by far the best one. You’re knowledge, wording, and metaphors are awesome. Hard to believe you only have 16k views. Keep striving.
I usually don’t get to the end of reacts because I just like watching the reactions themselves so when they start talking about it at the end I skip to the next one. That being said I made it to the end of yours and I thought you’re explanation of everything was amazing you really teased all the things that I saw without realizing it. Bravo
The funny thing is that the song is about his "relationship" with actual drugs. And also going to jail. However it could certainly be about a relationship with a person too, if that's how a person chooses to interpret it. It definitely fits some relationships out there. The girl in the video is supposed to be a metaphor for the drugs. Attractive and what not. But also messy. And in the end when she's on fire it's supposed to represent that he burned the habit, so to speak. And also represents attained warmth in getting rid of the coldness that drugs and jail made him feel. Also it's called reimagined instead of you because it's a reimagining of a song off their debut album called The Drug In Me Is You. Which has a far more upbeat tune to it. It recently went gold so he made this reimagined version of it as a special gift for his fans.
I'm more inclined to think it's about his relationship with Max Green and the addiction felt not just to the drugs but to the friend he thought would be in his life forever.
“The Drug In Me Is You” is about his drug abuse and jail but “The Drug in me is Reimagined” is saying that he doesn’t need drugs anymore since he’s been sober for a few years now which is amazing and we are all proud of him. You should reacted to the first and then the new it would’ve hit more but all in all he is an amazing musician and totally underrated in his genre.
Pretty sure I read they named it that as it was about self-reflection and him being his own worst enemy. Like him singing it to mirror. Possible he has said something different since I read that interview though as that was back then, not now.
10:55 - 12:24 First time ever seeing a video from you, and I subbed just because of this part. The way you described how that feels in life (I've been through/still going through it myself) was so perfectly accurate, and you boiled a cycle that takes pages to describe down to 90 seconds. I'm impressed on multiple levels.
you are literally the very first reactor, who analyzed the song itself. although i also liked reactions with pure bright emotions, yours is very different in a very good way; the way you're so controlled and respectful. it was very interesting to hear all of your thoughts in the end of the video
Damn dude, You've described that down to a tee. Ive seen many other critiques and you are spot on with the way I view this song. You have an incredible insight and your knowledge is amazing! I can clearly see that you definitely know emotions! I will follow you from here moving forward. Thanks for your incredible review.
Thanks for the kind words and for the sub. I can't promise this complete understanding of a song every time but I do my best to talk about what makes the musical aspects so cool in each song. Just being upfront with ya. :) Enjoy you day and I hope to see you around the comments in the future!
I loved the way you analyzed this, especially going to the edge and falling back from the chaos into the familiar. Makes complete sense to me. Thank you 😊
I’m glad I stumbled upon this reaction of one of my current favorite songs. You had an exceptionally intelligent and articulate understanding and comprehension of this song. I could be wrong but with his addiction history, it is my understanding that this song IS about drugs, not truly about a person... a person being metaphorical in this? Normally it really bothers me when a reactor speaks over lyrics, just imho that it doesn’t respect the music or artist but the fact that you still got so much out of it, made it ok for me. Plus what you commented during the song was musically pertinent and helpful. I’m so glad that you caught how the end was so passionate; most don’t seem to catch that beauty. You should watch the first “the drug in me is you”. It was written 10 years ago and shows Ronnie’s growth and maturity between the two versions of the same song. Then you’ll “get” why it’s reimagined. I’m going to subscribe and see what else you’ve got! Thanks for the great content!
That in depth analysis about tension/addiction just gained you a new sub. I knew the song revolved around his drug abuse and that the girl represented the drug which he finally burns at the end of the video which is kind of saying "we're done" which ties in nicely with your analysis of the tension that's finally released in this explosion at the end. I've recently become a fan and have had to read up a lot on Ronnie to fully try to understand the context of the songs (the trilogy videos of Loosing my mind, Loosing my life and Drugs is also really packed with references which are easier to pick up on when you know the context) I'd recommend you watch those 3 videos, even if it's offline, in that specific order as they're connected. There are basically 2 videos going on at the same time, one where a story of his 2 personalities and one where the actual performance of music takes place. Have a good one!
The song is actually THE DRUG IN ME IS YOU - REIMAGINED (because it is a remake of their song THE DRUG IN ME IS YOU from 10 years ago, word for word, note for note). Even the piano-solo is note for note the same as the guitar-solo of the original song.
Thank you for your reaction Bryan. From falsetto to cracking to agretoes. To an unexpected ( but somewhat wanted ) fading finish. Re-Imagined or possibly Re-mastered? What a haunting Ballard. Imagine hearing Queens Bohemian Rhapsody for the first time. Ronnie Radkes vocal range and carry is so impressive! I do wonder who mastered this. Fantastic. Thank you.
Not only is it an amazing ballad, but it's an amazing ballad of a metal song they wrote originally, I've loved this song since day one because the writing is on point and this just highlighted it further, fantastic emotion
The thing that's killer for me, is the part "And now, I've lost my fucking mind" et seq. It's uninflected - there's no anger; there's barely regret; it borders on a bald statement of fact, as the last vestiges of control snap... The only time you encounter that sort of uninflected use of what is, by all accounts in context, a pretty brutal word, is just before there's an unleashing of violence that no sane person wants to be near. The transition into the last part is as good an aural and visual allegory of what happens after that... it wants to burn the world, and all in it.
It's a remake the original song they wrote years ago was "The drug in me is you" and it's a lot faster and heavier and in my opinion not as a serious take of the new version. This version had more power and soul...... It is a beautiful darkness.... Gets you right in the feels
Ricochet by starset is in my opinion extremely underrated and has a movie quality music video to go along with it, I have not seen many reactions to it and would love to see yours.
Ricochet(and Starset) deserve SO MUCH MORE ATTENTION Ricochet is like one of the best songs from Starset and i love all their songs but that one is like on a higher tier. 😂😂
my first take on this song was like nah, not in a mood for slow song and turned it off in the middle of the song, few days later i tried again and boy i did a huge mistake turning it down... now its one of my favourite songs and i like it more and more.
I absolutely love your take on analyzing this song. Gives me another whole new perspective on the lyrics and what Ronnie may have been feeling when making it.
Amazing breakdown of the song!! For a middle of the road song from them check out "chemical prisoner" for a fun just for laughs check out "bad girls club" or "just like you" I think you would enjoy checking out a live version as well, "losing my life" warped tour 2018 is a great version
I really enjoyed your breakdown of the song. I'm more familiar with it than you, and still only typically listen to it a little more superficially. I think everything you pointed out was pretty valid.
While a lot of poeple see it as a lost relationship - in my view given his past I think the song is about drug addiction - not to a person but the drugs that mucked up some of his younger years. A lot of addicts sing about the terrible and cruel love affair that is drugs
It's not really him blaming a specific person as it is him blaming society for the way he is. He's haunted by his past and is lost in his own thoughts. He has no place to go and no one to turn to. He's beyond the point of no return and will go down an endless spiral till the time comes where he loses his mind. His drug is guilt and shame, the type of emotions that hold him down. This song is about escaping the darkness of your own genocidal hell and finding the silver lining within himself. At least, that's what I gathered.
In this moment , Also Falling in reverse has like a time line of the things that they did recently so it's losing my mind losing my life and then drugs and popular monster
Can I recommend the artist/rapper "NF" he produces all his music. He has a very orchestral choir big room sound tendency, he has amazing lyrics and real feelings and emotions connected to it. Very good dynamics and instrumentation! I highly recommend maybe "REMEMBER THIS" to start off with. You will not be disappointed...
I would like to see you react to some doom metal songs too. Something like Saturnus- Forrest of insomnia, Altar of oblivion- Graveyard of broken dreams, my dying bride- A kiss to remember or Anathema- Fragile dreams.
"The Drug In Me Is You" is the original version of this song that they released approx 5 years ago. It had a playful melody and much different mood to the song. The two versions are two totally different animals even though they have the exact same words.
I think you would really enjoy Break In by Halestorm feat. Amy Lee of Evanescence. There's your female lead, but good luck figuring out who is leading!! 😁
Yeah i thought it was about a relationship too, but evidently it's actually introspective, as if he's talking to himself in the mirror. He is the creator of his own misery. Also, you should compare it to the 10 year old original version.
You should listen to the original song the drug in me is you one of my all time favorite songs! But I actually do like this version better in different ways
I really enjoy the reaction videos by people that know what they're talking about. I'm not sure about other people but I would prefer if you took time to pause here and there and explain your thoughts before moving on. Instead of talking over small portions of the song
I did Jenny and God Went North together just a couple of days ago. I'm sure you know this already, but bring a box of tissues when you sit down to watch that one.
A wierd thing I noticed. Almost everyone that I know who has heard this has been like “he did a great job.” But not one person say “THEY did a great job
I think it's because a lot of this focuses on the lead singer. He's the one singing, he's the one playing the piano. 90% of the song is watching him, and only him, perform the song. So the immediate idea is that "he did this." Now of course it wasn't just him. Someone wrote the music (the composer commented on this video even) and the band does play at the end. But the perceived notion -- what people are going to hear and see on a first time listen -- is a single person doing most of the work.
WOW man, I've watched 20-30 reactions to this video (obsessed, i know haha) and I gotta say your reaction is my favorite because you delve into the lyrics and talk about the rollercoaster of emotions in the song and how it relates to addiction.

Your also the first reactor to this song that i've seen that didn't get a jump scare at the end lol....everybody jumps at the fire part.
Yes dude! You were the first person I've seen react to this who absolutely understood what Ronnie was trying to convey with the composition of the music and content of the lyrics spot on man you really get it.
but he didn't get the content of the lyrics at all though -- ronnie wrote the song while looking in a mirror in prison, the song is about himself.
The Drug In Me is You recently went gold. On Twitter he said he made this for his fans.
oh hell yeah!
I bet he didn't say that he made it because an Irish musician sent him his piano version of the original and Ronnie loved it so asked him to record it in a studio and send it over to him and he will give full credit.
@@mrkdmz Ronnie gave him credit on Instagram...
Ronnie also write this song while he was in prison for anyone that would like to know
@@mrkdmz it's still his song. Just because someone reimagined it doesn't take any of the credit from Ronnie.
They already have a song called the drug in me is you. And this is the same song but well... reimagined. Putting a different twist on it.
The reason it's not the drug in me is u because this is a remix of the song he made 10 years ago so he called this different
This is a different song. I tried the original and it sucked.
@@FinneousPJ1 it's the exact same song, listen to the lyrics they're exactly the same, the only difference is the genre/twist he takes on the delivery, also the original is fucking great
@@DarthPickIe that's not how I would define "exact same" but ok lol

I agree! I have never been so drawn into a reaction as I have this one.
"I expect it to be like Popular Monster"
15 seconds in
"Woh...that falsetto"
I usually don’t get to the end of reacts because I just like watching the reactions themselves so when they start talking about it at the end I skip to the next one. That being said I made it to the end of yours and I thought you’re explanation of everything was amazing you really teased all the things that I saw without realizing it. Bravo
If you expect something special and good and get something totally different, even more special and absolutely beautiful! LOVE IT!
This, this is why the song is called reimagined and not you, because is a reimagined version

Another reason he reintroduced the song is because he’s on tour for the 10 year anniversary of the album
I'm more inclined to think it's about his relationship with Max Green and the addiction felt not just to the drugs but to the friend he thought would be in his life forever.

You absolutely nailed this review. So refreshing to see a real breakdown of the song lyrically, musically *and* thematically! Great job :)
Great analysis...so many reactions are just jokers, but you really broke it down well. Thanks, man.
not everyone is a analyst my dude. not everyone knows the reason behind the song.
"I'm expecting something similar to Popular Monster, with a mix of different genres"
I'm like "oh no he's not ready for the masterpiece about to come"
Many people here have said it, but ill say it again. Best reaction on this song yet. You've earned yourself a subscriber!
Loved your interpretation of this song man you have a great way of reacting to music keep up the awesome work!
The song is actually THE DRUG IN ME IS YOU - REIMAGINED (because it is a remake of their song THE DRUG IN ME IS YOU from 10 years ago, word for word, note for note). Even the piano-solo is note for note the same as the guitar-solo of the original song.
I liked your breakdown at the end - subbed.
I’ve watched 10 reactors of this with many more views, this is the best. You actually get it
The way that you explained it was very deep!!! I felt the same as you said it.... rubber band feeling. In and out. Type emotions!!
By far the best understanding of this song I've seen. first time seeing you. I'll definitely be back. :)
The original song is actually called, the drug in me is you. It was one of the first songs and also the name of his first album.
Thank you for your reaction Bryan. From falsetto to cracking to agretoes. To an unexpected ( but somewhat wanted ) fading finish. Re-Imagined or possibly Re-mastered? What a haunting Ballard.

Great reaction man!
Hope Ronnie reacts to this reaction. Would like to see how close to what I feel is what was trying, and successfully completed, to convey.
Maybe letting him know that this reaction exists would be a good start to him reacting to it :)
Oh that guy finds pretty much every reaction done to his songs and reacts to them on his twitch stream so don't worry he'll react to yours lol
@@R3APZ559 So, has he reacted to it now?
It's a remake the original song they wrote years ago was "The drug in me is you" and it's a lot faster and heavier and in my opinion not as a serious take of the new version. This version had more power and soul...... It is a beautiful darkness.... Gets you right in the feels
It's to show how ronnie has grown. It shows you that his perspective has changed and hes grown wiser since the first one released.
Ricochet by starset is in my opinion extremely underrated and has a movie quality music video to go along with it, I have not seen many reactions to it and would love to see yours.
Ricochet(and Starset) deserve SO MUCH MORE ATTENTION
Ricochet is like one of the best songs from Starset and i love all their songs but that one is like on a higher tier. 😂😂
Been listening to Starset since Transmission. Their albums are just ripe for a reactor to do a deep dive on them
Gla3dr11 and there has been so few reactions
Agreed. Their music is so deep and sooooo good!
I mean wow chills down my spine goosebumps everywhere just an amazing remake I literally was on a roller coaster from start to finish
Anyone else think the white speck on the wall just below the music video was a mark on their screen? I sure as hell did 😂
Amazing reaction!
You were touched in the end? 😢 I was 😭 Beautiful...
Best reaction of this song, period. Great job Bryan!

The cords he chose mimic the guitar version of this song so perfectly. Ronnie flexing his range on us again
I tried to copy the guitar harmonies but still keep it flowing and also theres a little bit of a chopin esque chord progression there.
@@SeanRooneyMusic well you guys did an amazing job it sounds amazing and mix in his beautiful voice I got chills
sean rooney what is ur Instagram I would like to see bohemian_wannabe is my gram
Great stuff even better description of the song I agree 💯
Ronnie was also lead singer for Escape the Fate. Worth giving their old stuff a good look cause thats where it all began.
by far the best reaction video of all
Thanks a ton! I take pride in my dissection and analysis, especially what I concluded with this specific song.
You can’t truly enjoy how good this song is until you heard the original
This is a reimagined version of the song the drug in me is you from the album of the same name that recently hit gold
awesome postsong explanation imo, good video, good reaction and comments
I like the way you break the song down with the idea of the toxic relationship, I feel that.
Amazing breakdown of the song!! For a middle of the road song from them check out "chemical prisoner" for a fun just for laughs check out "bad girls club" or "just like you"
I think you would enjoy checking out a live version as well, "losing my life" warped tour 2018 is a great version
listen to the original! also the trilogy!! Losing my mind -> Losing my life -> Drugs
Of Mice and Men - Second and Sebring is such an amazing song that you have to give it a listen!
Man I haven't listened to that song in years. I completely forgot about it
I really enjoyed your breakdown of the song. I'm more familiar with it than you, and still only typically listen to it a little more superficially. I think everything you pointed out was pretty valid.

Ronnie is a musical genius
Absolutely he is it's a shame he never won a Grammy he deserves one he is an amazing musician
Very astute interpretation. Excellent reaction.
The original was a rock song and called The Drug in Me is You. This is the reimagined version years later! 👍
You learn very quickly, with falling in reverse...Don't trust your expectations! 😆
Another song that Ronnie plays the piano in is Brother. Off of the album Just Like You
I don't want to ruin it but it's so emotional 😥
5:45 yes indeed
In this moment , Also Falling in reverse has like a time line of the things that they did recently so it's losing my mind losing my life and then drugs and popular monster
Hey RONNIE!! I see you reacting😉😉😉
You should totally check out his other new video he redid I'm not a vampire. It's I'm not a vampire revamped it was amazing
Keep an eye on the channel this upcoming week 😉

I think you would really enjoy Break In by Halestorm feat. Amy Lee of Evanescence. There's your female lead, but good luck figuring out who is leading!! 😁
I enjoy your insights, keep it up mate, I'll be back
I'm gonna ask you do the Earthside - Contemplation of the Beautiful until I see it as your next upload :)
Yeah i thought it was about a relationship too, but evidently it's actually introspective, as if he's talking to himself in the mirror. He is the creator of his own misery. Also, you should compare it to the 10 year old original version.
You should listen to the original song the drug in me is you one of my all time favorite songs! But I actually do like this version better in different ways
This song is their updated version of their song "The drug in me is you" its imo waaay better.
The person is his mother who abandoned his as a child he has another balad he wrote eith escape the fate called day i left the womb.
The drug in me is you is about Max Green his best friend from escape the fate originally. They've since made up and moved on
But my assumption would be that this reimagined version could have an entirely different meaning to him than it did 10 years ago
We need to get this reaction over to Ronnie one of, if not THE, best reactions to this I've seen on YT.
ya know Ronnie looks similar to V in Devil May Cry 4
Nice!!
Zeal & Ardor - Blood in the River
Nice punctuation analogy.
Your reaction was intelligent & insightful...amazing track...Ronnie Radke is the real thing 🤘
You should listen to the original, the drug in me is you. A very different feel
great reaction - am i wrong - or did your eyes get a bit red a couple times during the song ?
Maybe, the song definitely hits pretty hard and his singing is very emotive. It wouldn't surprise me if they did.
the reimagined part means that it's gonna be a slower, acoustic song. You should react to The Drug In Me Is You for comparison
That song was Real magined The original song was the drug in me is you and it has full band and a lot faster
You were so close to knowing it was about the drug.
Look deeper the whole song the girl, scenery everything is his addiction. What happened at the end?🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you liked this you should check out brother by the same band
I really enjoy the reaction videos by people that know what they're talking about. I'm not sure about other people but I would prefer if you took time to pause here and there and explain your thoughts before moving on. Instead of talking over small portions of the song
React to brother it's another deeply emotional song that is different than most of Ronnie's work
They have another balled called brother
Great job understanding the vibes in the music. A recommendation for another band.... Nothing More, Jenny
I did Jenny and God Went North together just a couple of days ago. I'm sure you know this already, but bring a box of tissues when you sit down to watch that one.
If your wanting to see a real mix .. check out the Trilogy.. losing my mind, losing my life & Drugs
A wierd thing I noticed. Almost everyone that I know who has heard this has been like “he did a great job.” But not one person say “THEY did a great job
I think it's because a lot of this focuses on the lead singer. He's the one singing, he's the one playing the piano. 90% of the song is watching him, and only him, perform the song. So the immediate idea is that "he did this." Now of course it wasn't just him. Someone wrote the music (the composer commented on this video even) and the band does play at the end. But the perceived notion -- what people are going to hear and see on a first time listen -- is a single person doing most of the work.
@@CriticalReactions this is true. You dont see it all.
