I find the way Eric Metaxas is interviewing this wonderful person is annoying, invasive and at times rude. He interrupts Brian several times, stops him from completing his thoughts, has snarky judgmental remarks .. Eric is truly a bad interviewer but I was still able to be blessed by what Brian said and by April's input. #justsaying
Eren Mckay i agree,i hate when people interview & ask a question then interrupt them. Why even ask a question if you are gonna interrupt and try to get in as many questions & get half assed answers because you only have a certian amount of time. Most interviwers don't give a damn about who they are interviewing. I would love to be a musical journalist.
+Eren Mckay Yeah, I got the same vibe while watching the interview, so I "liked" your comment the moment I read it. Big props to Brian though! With 20 years experience at being interviewed, I really admire how expertly he handled "this Eric guy". A good measure of wisdom is revealed with the patience that Brian practices with this "truly.. bad interviewer". Would've been nice with just April and Brian talking.
This is a perfect example of "don't judge a book by it's cover." Brian looks rough, but he's a great, great guy. Christians usually don't have this powerful a testimony about God and Jesus because they've been with them their whole lives so they're frankly used to them. But people who experience the dark side of life have these powerful testimonies because they feel the difference, and it's amazing to them. I'm a devout Christian myself, and I must say that I too take The Lord for granted, so it's inspiring to see people like Brian. Sorry I ranted. I just wanted to offer my thoughts. Peace, friends!
Why do you say Brian looks rough? For all we now Christ might look like this and that is awesome! Don't judge a book by its cover! JESUS IS THE WAY AND THE ONLY WAY TO HEAVEN!!!
It didn’t seem to me like he was trying hard to offend him but failing miserably, to me is seemed more like he was trying to be funny but failing miserably.
ripplemusic.bandcamp.com/album/earthen-grave BrianHeadWelchVEVO let me know what you think of this. As a guitarist I wanted to shave an effect that sounds like Piggy of VOIVOD. I am in touch with his current era friends too
I dont feel it that way. The guy with the glasses just went through similar stuff so he knows what he is talking about. He just directs Brian to talk about the things he wants and he exactly know what is important to say without the sauce around it :)
Head dealt with that guy with class. He could have popped off, but Christ doesn't want that for us. Forgiveness is life. We are given it and we must give it. God bless, love you all!
Brian inspired me to play guitar back when I was in high school, not even joking and it broke my heart when he left Korn. So happy to see everything worked out! PS: This guy in the blue jacket needs to show some respect, this is the man right here.
I feel all Brian wanted to do was spread the love of Christ but the interviewers kept downplaying the importance of that and saying " God seems real to YOU". Or beating around the bush and asking irrelevant questions and speaking for him. Let the man speak! What are you afraid the truth will come out ? Stop trying to trip him up. Gods love is real to everybody and you can't stop the truth! God bless you Brian. I hope God can convict the heart of these interviewers to repentance.
well done my brother in Christ Jesus, billions of holy angels are rejoicing in heaven. stay strong Brian, God is always here for us no matter what circumstances we have here in Life.
I respect Brian for being a single dad in the throws of everything going on. He has his life going in the right direction. It’s so hard to be a single dad and try to support your kid by working full time in ANY industry. I’m very proud of you and your daughter could not have a better dad in the world!! Congrats on your success and keep it up! ✌🏻
This video was suggested by RU-vid and I love KoЯn so had to watch this but that guy interviewing is so annoying! He won't let Head tell his story. Keeps wanting to feel like he's adding something to his story or he makes stupid horrible jokes. I can tell Head is somewhat annoyed. Asking why he has dreads like if it were really weird or dumb. What a jerk.
That guy interviewing is a fucking rude ass dipshit. He might of read his book but he has no understanding of where Head is coming from or what he stands for or who he really is.
xavier ramos Ice Kold Killa I think y'all just don't get his sense of humor. Not to mention he's a devout Christian - he doesn't think he's better than Brian. You have to look at it this way; no he doesn't quite understand where he's coming from because he hasn't been there. But, he does have respect for Brian for what he's been through and how he has dedcated his life to the Lord. As for the jokes about his dreads it's a referal to the previous interview he did with him on Jesus in Unexpected Places where he asked him about them. Lighten up guys! :)
I love Brian's testimony ! I can feel the presence of the Lord in you, it is very strong man ! I'll be glad to met you one of these days, here or in paradise ! We will jam for hours ! May God bless you man !
Brian looks so healthy and at peace. So thankful that He is being used in SO many ways to introduce people to Christ in a way that will relate to those outside of church. Love his heart.
Jesus, the two ppl interviewing him are so cheesy. It's like Good Morning America trying to interview Korn. I am so happy for Head though & proud of him! He stuck to his "Jesus Roots" and his rock roots. I started out a Jesus freak (preachers daughter) & became a metal head, rock singer, rock journalist, actress & then Jesus came back in my life again - the Lord met me where I was in the midst of my sin.... so I understand it is ALWAYS a journey with God! He never leaves his kids :) "Head" / Brian, Keep it up with Jesus. You're right, "God will use anything". The main people who stuck with me were Christians who originally came from major imperfections. They were no different than the "holy/ saintlike" people I met in my early christian roots/ childhood. They all played an intricate part in my walk with Jesus. Remember, Jesus hung out with hoodlums... thieves, prostitutes, etc. He didn't care - He loved us all the same - He saw a light in all of mankind and He still does. So very proud of you & happy for you! See you in Heaven buddy! xoxo Mia Jax Beach, FL
I love Brian for what he did. It took balls. I read his book, and even though I struggle, I am truly inspired by people like Brian, Dave Mustaine, Steve Baldwin, and others who have stepped up to the plate to try and show us the light on top of the hill.
Eric Metaxas, you should have shown more respect to someone that is opening his heart and sharing about those times he was struggling the most. Shame on you buddy.
WOW, like WOW! Truly awesome story! I was watching TBN and you came on and I was tripping... My love for metal was hard to give up back in the day day, so I started praying for y'all and all the metal bands I listened to. I don't take credit but I was truly amazed when I saw you and other bands getting sober and becoming Christians. I've kind of been distant from God, especially since the Covid BS. I've decided I'm going to get sober again Sunday. I'm sure it's no mistake I just came across your testimonies this morning. If you get this message, pray for me now too, please.
Brian is such an inspiration to me as Justin Furstenfeld of Blue October. His story is VERY similar as Justin's as far as when the Lord came into his heart and changed his life. SO inspiring for people struggling with depression and addiction. I've learned a lot from Brian and Justin's story's. Thank you Brian for sharing so openly, you are helping so many. I just want to know if they know each other, Brian and Justin? Thank you BOTH. Much love and light.
Been a fan of Head since ‘95. Man, it’s good to see him healthy. I am not even religious, but it is good to see him living his good life. The guy hit the luck lottery and got to be in a huge rock band, and it is cool to see how things worked out in the end for him. He is a really charismatic guy, and I enjoy watching him in interviews
God bless you brother. Regardless of the horrible interviewer the message is incredible! I pray everything just hears the message and not critique everything else that going on.
My Brothers band Awaken opened up for Heads band when he toured with POD. The same producer produced his album, the producer's name is Travis Wyrick in Knoxville Tennessee. Head even played around on my brothers drums before the show
WHAT A GREAT INTERVIEW. WHAT A GREAT GUY AND STORY !! Thanks brother 4 sharing your experiences, thoughts, and amazing life success! ! My prayers are with you buddy.
Yes interviewer is obnoxious. BHW is one cool dude. Love Him..from a fellow Christ Follower!! Your story is so cool to hear. you are doing amazing stuff for God😉
Really wish people like head would understand he got sober and realized everything on his own whether he attributes it to god or not. just like the rest of the band did it without Jesus. But i do have to say he is definitely way more Christ-like than any other christian i know
This interviews shows how humble Head is! This interviewer guy is ridiculously rude and abrasive and I couldn’t even watch it! But Head handles the poor interview very well! Omg he’s so patient here. UGH!
I don't think the interviewers were bad. Eric, the male interviewer, just seemed like he wasn't used to being in such a serious conversation, but, that considered, he seemed to be paying enough attention to recognize when his jokes were too silly and misleading the conversation, and he tried to get back on track. Brian Welch was speaking from a deeper and quieter place than most people tend to when being interviewed. Nowadays, it's usually more shallow and comical. I think Eric showed more respect than many people would have. He engaged with Brian conversationally rather than just reading a script like a robot. I love this video and I'm disappointed by all the hateful comments toward the interviewer and the lack of other discussion.
Thank you Brian ! You are totally awesome, and your testimony about God just being all about Love is so, so right on! I just think that it's only LOVE that is going to heal our people; esp.our children, and our planet. It's such an amazing blessing to have Jesus in our hearts...thank you, so much again for your honesty and your integrity :-)
This guy interviewing is a dush. I find BHW to be well spoken and completely inspiring as a human being. He is serving God with HIS GIFTS People... I could listen to him all day long talking about his love for Jesus. Amen! I noticed Brian thinking about tearing him down but letting the spirit defuse his anger. That happens to me a lot in life. Some people just don’t get it. Brian God bless you for having the faith in God and feeling his direction. It will lead you to your ultimate goal in life only satisfying our Lord! I wanna say I commend you for being super transparent for the love of Christ, at times I have felt so isolated in my faith but you have renewed my spirit I am not alone in my devout walk with the LORD! That interview hoax of a dude is nothing in this moment I pray he finds his way...
