#PastorRob #Shinedown #Reaction
For me the message behind this song is simple: The only thing that matters is how we treat each other. Life is short. Don't spend it hating. Don't spend it angry. Love hard. Love strong. No matter what you believe, now matter how you live, our #1 purpose is to love each other. This entire album (Threat to Survival) was great and very deep.
Side note: While their music is secular, I do believe the band themselves identifies as Christian. I have a live DVD of theirs that shows the band do a prayer together before they take the stage.
All reaction channels need more Shinedown 👍
Yep. Wasn't a huge fan of their last album but they've been great for a long time
@@MDavis13 its hit and miss for me. I go back and relisten to it here and there but most of the songs just arent for me. All in all they're my favorite band though and it saddens me how few people actually do react to them.
Will Lyon AMEN!!!
Facts
Facts
"It's not what you believe" I think he's talking about religion in a sense. It doesn't matter about what you believe in Christian, Jewish, etc. It's about showing and giving love to everyone. No matter your beliefs.
My thoughts too.
Exactly
That’s how I look at it too. The full line that’s getting left out is that part of the chorus says “It's not what you believe those prayers will make you bleed
But while you're on your knees” and then poses the titular question again. So how I’ve always viewed those lyrics is about how people can get caught up in their beliefs, such as religion and don’t accept differences of opinions.
Daniel Cardenas I agree. He says “It’s not what you believe, those prayers will make you bleed” meaning religion isn’t love. Which is obvious. Cause all wars are religion based.
Daniel, exactly.
His name is Brent Smith. He sings alot of well meaning songs. Such as drug use, suicide, depression, . A really awesome band I love them.
"How Did You Love is about understanding and respecting your own mortality. Not in a morbid, negative way, but in a way that inspires you to live each day to its fullest and without regret, especially when it comes to your relationships and your individuality. You need to be at peace and proud when you look back and ask yourself, 'how did you love?'"
Lead Vocalist, Shinedown Brent Smith
You're awesome Pastor Rob. I'm not very religious, but I really respect your perspective in these videos. I think you should check out Jenny by Nothing More. It's quite a powerful song.
That song is a real tear jerker, still love it though.
Fade In/Fade Out is also a fantastic song by Nothing More
Jenny is crazy powerful love it
i love that song
Christ on copyright, God went north
The full lyric is "It's not what you believe, those prayers will make you bleed, but while you're on your knees, how did you love" In my opinion, Brent is talking about religions, and how no matter what you believe in, there are still people who will disagree with you.
Break it down and look at it this way, "It's not what you believe, those prayers will make you bleed". To some, it may sound like he's bashing religions, but I think, that he's saying to take into account others religions before bashing them. As seen in the past, division in the world due to religious differences is very common. and while I am not trying to sound negative about them, it's not unknown that people have died because of those difference. It sounds, to me, like a cry to be more accepting and understanding of those difference.
NOW, looking at the next part "But while you're on your knees, how did you love" This is a straightforward question, when you, as the listener, are at your most humblest points; and I mean humblest in the manner of when you are either alone with your thoughts or praying or things of that nature, do you think about how you were to those around you throughout the day? For example, were you less polite to someone based on how they dressed, or because they were of a different religion than you? Did you love them any less than you would have loved someone who agreed with your way of thinking?
Again, this is just my take on the song lyrics, whether it's similar to the band's or not. I, for one, love Shinedown and think they are an amazing group. If possible, would you consider doing another song by them? I am interested in hearing your opinions on their song 'GET UP' off their newest album "ATTENTION ATTENTION"
Destiny Nelson, I absolutely agree, tell them girl!
I had a family of killers and all they all seemed to think they could be saved days before death and just say the words they dont believe.
After taking so many innocents, this is the first time I see these type of people in total fear, preying and shaking, hoping in old age they dont burn forever.
They didnt love.
Thats how I relate to it.
Shinedown's Brent Smith's has one of thee best vocals a man can have. BLESSED for sure.
I think when he says it's not what you believe, he is saying that your actions are more important than what you believe.
Now you have to listen to 45!
Justin Tarvid no. Right in two by tool
@@Poonslayer42 No!
Brent has changed his life for the better since 45. Look at how the catalog changed & the bands whole look.
listening to brent explain 45, its still about life and love, not an actual suicidal moment, though an event like that was the inspiration
Love is what it’s all about. I have raised my husband’s 2 children. They do not belong to me. But I am their Mother. I have been there when someone else wasn’t. I hope and pray that when I’m dead and gone, my 2 kids will say, you know what…Mom was always there. She never ran out on us, or let us down and she always loved us. Even when we were rough on her. That’s what I think of when I hear this song. And it’s one of my faves from Shinedown.
“I’ll Follow You Down” is another favorite of mine from Shinedown. It’s mine and my husband’s song. One of our faves. ✌🏻❤️from Texas.
Shinedown is one of my all time favorites. I've known them for 5 or 6 years now, since their Amaryllis album. From then I've been a huge fan of them. Like one of guys said, they do have distinct sound to them. The band does write their own music, Brent Smith, the lead singer, is the lead writer. They are all good hearted men who care about each other, their families & their fans as well. "Unity" is my all time favorite from them, and I've heard it live the almost 6 times I've seen them. They're just so so good ❤
To me "It's not what you believe" refers to your personal views...your personal, religious or political beliefs, etc.... because in the end what people remember most about you is who you were as a person.
I think the song is trying to get you to ask yourself what kind of person are you and how will you be remembered. Did u treat people well, did you show love, kindness, compassion, did you bring them joy and leave happy memories.....or did you let your differences and prejudices get in the way of that
EXACTLY THIS
"You can be an angel of mercy or give into hate" it's so true, we all have a choice whether or not to love or to hate
Brent Myers and Zach Myers (who write most of the songs) are Christians. Zach Myers actually helps out Christian rock bands, though Myers has some songs he's written with cussing. Idk about the others. This song when it first came out, people actually thought it was a Christian song. The band is also known for being good friends with Skillet, a Christian rock band I'm sure you've heard of. I'm a Christian myself, I don't completely agree with the guest pastor on this song, but shinedown is one of those secular bands who have written songs with hidden Christian meanings.
That would explain why they had Propaganda do the spoken word in the beginning. I’ve seen Propaganda in concert and was able to chat with him a bit afterwards. Talented artist!
Mateo Ottie
Brent SMITH and Zach Myers (sorry)
I wish Skillet and Shinedown would tour together...they would sell out venues I think!
Oops... autocorrect
Yes, I have been hoping for that for a long time
There are messages n this song that can lead young people to Christ... I'm a fan of Shinedown too. God says without you are nothing, even if you're a billionaire. God bless.
"Hello?"
"No that better one"
Had me laughing on the floor, I agree.
i honestly have to say this is probably a gem to find because i was listening to music one night and stumbled across this and i was amazed on everything i love the instrumental and i love the tone he used through out this whole plus his voice and the aggression i love it everything about this song
Heard this live when Shinedown was in Corpus Christi!! Love how a hard rock band can have such inspiring lyrics. Love is the most important thing in life!!
oh and I wanted to offer my two cents: there was a debate on "it's not what you believe" and I think Shinedown means that no matter what religion a person follows (even though we are referring to the bible), love should still be important. Love these react videos!! You guys are great!
This spans any and all religions of faith and just humanity. How do we love
she rose from the grave cause how she loved was so great that she would never truly die.
Brent Smith. IMO top 3 vocalist out today. Seen them 2 x now. And will again this May in Atlanta. Can not wait. All time fav.
Always enjoy Dr. Purvis .. bring him back too 😇🙌
Shinedown- get up is a true inspirational song. all around feel good go after your dreams motivational song. by far my new favorite of there's
As another listener already stated -and I'm a huge Shinedown fan listen to this song A lot- t's not what you believe, I believe, pertains to it's not whether you're atheist agnostic Christian Jewish regardless of what faith or lack of faith you have it's not about that it's about loving, it's about how did you love, how did you treat people? how did you treat the world? that's what I gather from this song
Brent Smith is such an amazing vocalist..... his voice is so profound and full of emotions
Give the new album a listen and specifically listen to “kill your conscience”
Love is acceptance. Of all people. The purpose of this song is to take a look at your life and understand that you don’t have a super long time and to decide what kind of impression you want to leave when you die. This song reminds me to be an individual, and stand up for those who are also individuals. Leave a better impact on the world, regardless of the size of your impact. You may change a thousand lives, you may change one, but change it for the better.
I love your reactions Rob! The glowing look on your face while listening and watching was a joy to see.
Love this song, thanx! Greatings from North of Sweden.
I always loved this song and almost sort of made it a motto for myself inside. If you think of God he was love...our biggest legacy in life should be to strive to love ALL PEOPLE...even our enemies. Love our planet he created for us. And if you don’t subscribe to any religion....It does boil down to how you love if you want love you give love...and it doesn’t have to be an intimate man woman love...
Right in two - Tool
Alex King he just said he’s got it on his list to do🤷♂️
@Alex King
I 've read your requests for Right in Two and Love and Meth. They are on the list. While I have every desire to do what our subs want, I also have to work in an organized manner to suit my schedule. In fact, because this is the busiest season for a Pastor, I wasn't going to film any new videos till after New Years but the opportunity to film with my Mentor came up and I jumped on it. Both for myself and for the several hundred subs that requested Shinedown.
Robert Houghton okay thank you. I’ve seen so many people request right in two every video. Thousands of comments and it feels like you hadn’t even acknowledged it. Thank you for having them on the list
@@Poonslayer42 No prob. I understand.
The 1st comment on every video has been for that song. Couldn't ignore it if I tried! 😂
Robert Houghton yeaaaah that’s true. I also just saw a comment about Jenny by nothing more and that’s also a great song!
Saw Shinedown at aftershock...worth it.
Try by Shinedown
“Heroes”
Disturbed - “Who Taught You How to Hate” is a song you should react to. It has a similar message to it.
Pastor Rob I love your videos. I also like that you bring new opinions (people) into the vids. I was nice to see your fellow pastors give their takes on the music. Keep up the great work.
Seeing your reaction is like watching this for the first time again, I love your view on this.
Absolutely love this channel! Would love to hear from Dr. Purvis again.
Loved this reaction!!! Shinedown is such a great band to see live!
I wish more pastors were like the two of you. I hope your congregation knows how lucky they are to have you. I would be back in church if I could find people who think like you.
What A Shame by Shinedown is an amazing song as well, and could be a great topic of discussion.
Their best song to date!!!
To me, love is understanding and being accepting of people who don't agree with our views and ways of life, and helping them if they need it regardless of if they have done you wrong or not
I love how much this pastor loves Shinedown. I also love them this much
Pleaaase react to A DAY TO REMEMBER - Sometimes you’re the hammer, sometimes you’re the nail
I think you will have a lot to say on the ending lyrics. Unfortunately no video for the song but should totally do it, worth it much!!!
I just had to pause this I'm laughing so hard that Pastor Rob said "Mr. Down" 😂😂 I can see why this channels still going I love your stuff man
I just now followed your channel I really enjoy your reactions . Thank you
I just left a comment on your reaction to Sound of Silence about some secular music can be applied to a Christian life... This song is a great example of that.
Great reaction to this BTW! Shinedown is probably one of my favorite artists. They've been through struggles and push through, and their music reflects this.
Good food for thought here. Great video
I think Dr. Purvis is great, definitely have him on again!
Another great video Pastor Rob! It's hard to say what he wants to love. You had some really great points on what he could of meant by how did you love.
Love is empathetic, true, honest, respect of others, self, and everything in life. You can still love a sinner as a human being but not the sin that they do. Love people for what they are, human beings who make mistakes, not for what they do or say.
I really liked Dr. Danny's views, I'm a new subscriber. And look forward to seeing him on your channel again.
Recently found ya. Really like your perspectives and outtakes or your opinion. Love to hear your reaction to some, lamb of god, dope or down. Look forward to more of these.
Ps. Know u liked this shinedown your probably like the songs from them Miracle and Cry for help.
This needs to be blasted on a massive PA system across our divided nation right now. This song pumps me up and moves me to tears at the same time. Atlas falls is another moving song
Being a long time Shinedown fan, I am very happy to see such positive reactions. They have had multiple songs that for me, upon their release really held relevance with things I have gone through. I agree very much that "It's not what you believe" because I do not identify myself as a Christian. Regardless of this, I am always looking to help others no matter what situation. I help other students at my martial arts dojo on fridays just as a volunteering assistant, because I feel it's important to help others achieve their goals as much as it is to achieve your own. On the flip side of this, I also show 'love' for others by way of helping the homeless when possible. Multiple times I have stopped to provide a gift card to individuals I've seen on the side of the road, so that they could order themselves food and something to drink. Even if they use it all at once, one act of general caring for humanity can help lift their spirits, as I've been told by a few myself.
"And the second is like it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is no other commandment greater than these.
"
Nobody is greater, nobody is lesser. We are only different in appearance and our minds, we are all equal. We are all human. If everyone was able to justly live by those words, our world would be a kinder place.
(sorry for the rambling)
I think the lyric "its not what you believe" is actually saying you don't have to come from a certain background to be able to show compasion for another human life
Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Jews
They all come from different walks of life
But they all understand what love is and they all know how to show conpassion and love their fellow neighbors
So it really doesn't matter what you believe
We all know how to show love for one another in our own way and in the end thats all that matters
"I ask God for strength He gave me difficulties to overcome......" =Prayers will make you bleed. If we use the word we must actively walk in his ways and overcome to strengthen our faith.
You guys are doing a great job! I really enjoy the videos. Your guest was spot on!
I believe love is the same for everyone, and this was the most SIMPLE concept- "How did you love"
Love-is pure. Its like how you love your children, best friend, ext. You simply care, thats it.
No passing judgement, if you cant agree, simple, just love them and walk away.
How did you love also means, how did you care, how did you TRY.
Love is never evil.
Acts of evil are never made with love period.
Shinedown has always been my favorite band, I grew up listening to them and I'm so hyped to see this
“Better to live vs better to love.” Luv that.. ❤️
These guys have been making albums since 2003! I am so proud of Brent Smith and his band. These guys have had some serious longevity in a world where everything is flash in the pan.
Love is taking care of and caring about others even if they aren't like you. Love is an action verb.
I love your video reactions. I love your preaching.....
Glad you enjoy! Thanks for the encouragement. ☺️
Another great video! I am a day late watching as I have been sick since its the flu season but was awesome to watch the new video once I started feeling better!
As for my definition of love. I have to agree with Dr. Purvis in that love is an unconditional sentiment that you should have for every being in the world, just as God does. I have often said to many people who want to argue with me about having gay friends being a Christian myself and what I say back to them is the God doesn't hate person, he hates the sin. Even though a person chooses to live the sinful life, God does not hate them. He still loves them. He hates the sin they are living. So it is unconditional.
I love Dr Rurvis on here...as a Christian who was grown up in strict religion...who was taught against racism....I forgot to think of those who never met our savior...I am the worst example of christ I know...but if you read this he loves you.
Yes do more shinedown!!!!
Brent Smith is the lead singer. Shinedown is amazing! They have so many great songs about life.
This pastor is a metal head I love it
Calling Shinedown metal is very generous
Shinedown isn't metal, they wrote a few songs that could be considered metal but they are hard Rock
All this song means is love people whether you agree with them or not. Aka “it’s not what you believe”, that means if someone disagrees with you, respect their opinion and still love that person. That’s all it means.
Thanx for doing Shinedown. You guys do a great job. One thing...you have to read between the lines in music as you do in your scriptures. The line ITS NOT WHAT YOU BELIEVE is more like love is not like its percieved or most do. Its about caring for all.
Love those in your life.. love those come n go because in the end thats what they will remember how you made them feel.
Now you should chk these out
Shinedown:
State of my Head
Get Up
What a Shame
P.o.D:
Beautiful
Truly Amazing
This goes out to you
Lost in forever
Tell me Why
BETS DaKREAToR ^_^
I'm truly enjoying your react videos. It's great to see a pastor objectively listening to secular music. I am a HUGE Shinedown fan, seen them 5 times live. I would really love to see you and your pastor react to "I'll Follow You" by Shindown. It's one of the best songs ever written. Please do that video.
He's saying no matter how often you go to church (what you believe) or portray yourself as a good person it comes down to how you treat people and how you love others no matter their background.
I'm just here broadening my horizons at 2am in the morning... I'd still like to offer my view of love... In my humble opinion, love is an amazing occurrence that allows people to put their ego aside and place another persons needs, well being and happiness ahead of your own, without feeling regret, jealousy or minding it in any possible way... again, maybe if I wasn't writing this in the middle of the night I could've condensed this into a neater, more coherent way, but this is what love feels like to me so, here you go =) p.s. I myself am not a believer but after going through a lot of your videos in the last hour or so, I've grown to like and respect you Pastor Rob, keep up the good work. You can feel free to say you've got a fan in Croatia =)
I see you singing there Dr. Danny Purvis!
I also wanted to say I really enjoy hearing what you think about songs.
Shinedown is my FAVORITE band.... Brent Smith is an amazing singer!! he can sing paint off the walls..... Eric Bass is incredible....(bass player) Barry Kerch(drummer) Zach Myers (guitar) are incredible.
"God IS love" is an action. The song isn't about what they believe about Love but that "what leave behind" is a product of action. Legacy is the result of what you did with your life not what just what you believed. Belief can have impact and even major impact but remember that Love speaks for itself. You don't need to tell a child what love IS. They know what love IS. Appreciate the channel Pastor. You should listen to Heres To The Heartache by NothingMore.
Yes! All of this
This is one of my favorite songs.
I love this song! 😀
One thing... God alone is the judge. That's why it doesn't matter what your beliefs are. And why Love is most important. An individual's definition of Love may be different from yours but God knows their intentions, their true Heart. He shall judge us in His way. Just bc you think someone's Love is not as pure as another's does not mean that their intentions are not as pure. God knows these things. And as long as we encourage people to Love the world will be a better place. If someone asks how then it is up to the answerer to show them how to Love... or maybe ask them to come to service with them... However the Lord guides them. Much Love to all ❤
I really enjoyed this reaction. I thought Danny was a great guest and I like the perspective given about the topic of love. Well done, 10/10 for you both
Shout out to Shinedown live in Orlando tonight! Last of 3 shows!
LOVE THIS SONG
React to DEVIL or MONSTERS from their latest album. I’d love to see both of your inputs on the tracks.
I LOVE this song. This is the first time I've ever seen the video.
Shinedown is based out of Jacksonville Florida
Brent Smith is the name of the lead singer.
Barry Kerch is the drummer
They're one of my favorite bands, their lyrics are almost always positive, about survival and standing tall, also tells stories about real life situations such as 45 Brent has even explained the meaning of the song in their live acoustic concert
Being good or right is by doing no harm. Be love!!
Can only say "wow"! Another great video and commentary. Almost- almost, agree with you guys, especially definition of love.
Some boring BG, grew up in fundamental religious environment. My partner rescued me. My friends supported me. Firm believer in not blood thicker than water but the full saying "the blood of the convent is thicker than the water of the womb". These people are my kin, my family, in our Father and in love.
Managed to pick up tattered remains of faith because of that pesky love, again. Always provided. Never asked.
There are five different words of love. Sad it was never mentioned here. (And cue the pout face). It kept me going, and continues to guide me (chronic illness, few years now- and all my kin, still here! Can't even scare them away now.)
Getting to the point? Yes. Finally.
My understanding of our Father's love. Also how I try to live my life.
-Agape- To love a hundred percent, all mankind. As Father loves us. Unrelenting, indiscriminating and definitely (I have been told, maybe a few times) a bit masochistic! But the greatest gift is love. (There is a verse but will lose comment if I change screens so homework if you dare). And after all I have seen and witness, how can I not. (He always know the width of our shoulders- and more homework!) For I am always loved.
I think the song is quite relevant. How does one love? Because if you cannot open up your heart, than how can it be saved? How can the Lord enter? If your love is materialistic, selfish, based in pride, etc than won't your reality be not only reflecting that but based in the very aspect of it? Your job, every relationship, family/partners, even your self worth.
Also random- It isn't the belief of his song he is questioning, but imo, I have always believed, the listeners. Asking maybe to reflect on their beliefs.
Growing up in a strict religious household, I knew God but I never understood love. Therefore I never "knew" our Father. Not until I felt unconditional love with no regard or consequence. Beyond words. No, seriously, it is. I've tried. So here, I will stop.
Just my 2 cents, from another perspective.
Zzz
And cause tldr - Agape.
Have a great start to the next year! I would love to see a reaction to the song Satan is real from kreator. Have a nice day :)
This song nails it on the head. No one gets out alive and religion has never done a good thing for anyone people do good things for people.
When he says it's not what you believe - it's in terms of no matter your religion, have you been a good person? Are you a good person? What you leave behind is the impact you have had on the people that are around you. That's what he's saying when he's asking how did you love?
Agapé is the kind of love we should all strive for. TBH I can't define love without God.
another great video
Glad you enjoyed. Thanks for all your encouragement. ☺️
really, i think this entire cd should be on the list for reactions. one song always makes me tear up, lots of memories come out.
Love to me is a feeling of goodness in your heart , I always say I love to love , help people then giving yourself threw time, listen, help each other, spread the Love even if someone hates then love more it’s how I live my life and to me that’s my opinion on Love ❤️ great Vid 👍
Krister R no
Love this song 💜
one of my favorite bands... they are very underrated
I just started watching you and I think that this is amazing. Thank you. Coming Down by 5FDP. One of my favorite songs and I want to see what you think.
Dan the pastor man. Great addition to the channel :) hope to see you in the future. Pastor Rob, you should listen to The Pot by Tool. Great song. Another song portraying MJKs perspective on religion and politics. A great song I promise:))
An open mind is a lighted path to an open heart. . . Keep on rocking through understanding, faith and love. The world needs more pastors like you. Thank you for this. God bless.
Please react to a band called Theocracy. They are a Christian power metal band. One song of theirs is "Hide in the Fairytale." They have wonderful lyrics and they are very talented. This song is very interesting.
-Peace
I like Dr. Danny Purvis, he gives in depth analysis.
