Faith No More - Epic | REACTION 

Faith no more epic is awesome

Mike patton as a singer is next level, he’s up there among the gods.❤️🇦🇺

Mike Patton is actually an amazing singer, this is just one of his many voices. Guy is literally an opera singer.

Not just mtv, i was 15 then and practically lived at the arcade with my friends, i barely played games it was more of a hang out, lol, when a song was really popular it would play a lot there. This song was played every second song, it was crazy and we loved it, we’d get all hyped up for a night out.

"He´s in Purple Rain right now"...that gave me a good chuckle. Well done, Ryan.

Roddy Bottom plays keyboards (including piano) in the band. Always has, always will.

This song was my first introduction to Faith No More. After hearing this for the first time, went out and bought The Real Thing and Introduce Yourself albums, been a huge fan ever since. It's also heard to believe that this song is going to be 33 years old in a couple of days. And it still sounds so dam amazing even now-Faith No More in a nutshell

Mike Patton is the man of the 1000 voices, just listen to the FNM catalog and his other projects, he can do it all.

I love that the lead guitar isn't blistering, it gets the message across without cluttering it up.

These guys are amazing. Midlife crisis A small victory Last cup of sorrow

Mike Patton has multiple voices It just depends on the song.. he does Frank Sinatra tunes and lounge club tunes as well , that was 1 of their last albums

If you guys haven’t yet, check out Mr Bungle, another band Mike Patton is in. Mr Bungle is touring right now 2023.

Philosophers have always wondered, "What is it?" And Faith No More Answered, "It's It!" Joking, but also serious, like Faith No More.

I'm 55 and I remember the world Epic since around early 80"s

So I popped by for the April Wine react I stumbled upon while working on the tune Roller. Checked out the channel and was so excited to see you 3 discover “Epic” but now I hear y’all know it. Way more fun to see you guys react to that which you don’t know. So hmmm... what you guys not know?

He is in pocket all the way through. Very talented.

He dropped the nasal voice after this album. Check out midlife crisis from next album and his vocal progression is crazy.

Fun fact. Mike Patton did some zombie voices/sounds in the Left4Dead video game series.

Evidence. ❤

"The Real Thing" was the first CD I ever purchased, way back in 1990, as the transition from cassette tapes was becoming more mainstream and affordable. The entire album is amazing. Much of the lesser known tracks are great, "Underwater Love" and "Woodpecker from Mars" are two of my favorites. Mike Patton has one of the most unique voices ever and has a ridiculous range. (Edit) As a teenager of the 1990's, I can tell you for sure nobody used the term "epic" back then. It's more of a 2000's term. Back then we said things were sweet, phat, wicked, or just plain old cool.

Thanks for the fish.

When this song had some.. mainstream success, the genre of this song got described as "Rap and Roll"

When talking bout a comic book hero thinking about what his mom always told him, and then what his dad told him "you ain't ever gonna amount to nothing" Cue Faith No More song "RV"

Thanks for this!! I’ve been see them 5 times and Mike Patton (the man of the 1000 voices)alone with Fantomas or Mr Bungle !! Super Band!!

Great band and even more great musicans..👍

I discovered Faith no More pretty recently and was going to see them live at Mad Cool Madrid in July until they canceled because of Mike Patton's mental health problems. The Real Thing has become one of my favourite songs of all time. It was so different from everything I've ever listened before.

Personally, I find Mike Patton one of the most creative and versatile singers in the music industry. The man of the 1000 voices. As a teen in Greece in early 90s Real thing was epic, something so different and unique. FNM inspired so many bands, brought music to the 90s in one album, created a new fusion genre. And then had their Angel Dust, a masterpiece. Also RHCP have nothing on FNM comparing to them or Patton's many projects like Mr. Bungle, Tomahawk, Phantomas or his movie soundtracks. But that's just my opinion.

When I was a DJ I played this or Cult of Personality by Living Colour as my last song evert night.

I fell in love with this album when it came out. But as much as I love Faith No More, the number one band for me that Patton was in will forever be Mr. Bungle. The band (that was also one of the biggest influences on Slipknot at the beginning) can be a bit hard to swallow at first, they incorporate styles like funk, jazz, death metal, techno, circus music, oriental influences and everything between often in one song. But once you get a hang of it there's no turning back.

It lives upto its name. The guitar solo and the piano at the end. Although I wish they both lasted longer

"Why did the piano explode" it was the 80s. You had to be there.

Easy like Sunday morning cover

I like their version of "Easy" by The Commodores.

Mike Patton's vocals on Deep Deep Down blow me away

Jim Martin is my boy..great dude. Bay Area metal influence

Guys, I recently subbed to you because I legitimately believe that you have the most honest reactions out there. Also there is an amazing dynamic between the 3 of you. That's why I will ask from you to react to one of my most favorite bands of all time, Symphony X. I really want to see a reaction from you. If you could do "Fallen", "Absense of Light" or "Kiss of Fire" by them I would love it.

Att:View from 502 For anyone not familiar!!!!! Favorite Rap Rock hands down(most slept on band ever) "Urban Dsnce Squad" (debut also late 80's) check 1) Grand Blsck Citizen 2,) Harvy Quintt 3) Son of A Culture Clash Tragic such brilliant artist so overlooked. From Holland so perhaps that plays a part. Saw them open for " Living Colour" and mind blown !!!!! Funky as hell 🔥 🔥

Seen these guys in concert back in the early 90’s when this album came out, they opened for Metallica and Guns N’ Roses……..they killed it!!!!

Mike Patton could be one of the best vocalists ever! Faith No more have an special relationship with my country, Chile. They came during the dictatorship and after it, and always be very kind with us. Have a lot of stories here. We love Mike and FNM. Please, react to Ashes to Ashes. Regards from Chile!! 🙂

That music was in 1990 I was 12 year old

Faith No More - Cuckoo For Caca

One epic vocalist, with a tight band behind him!

Now we're talkin' . Some funky fire. Slapping the bass and a crunchin' guitar riff.

I never heard people say epic til the early 2000s.

They actually had many mainstream hits. This one was just the first. My faves Ashes to Ashes, Evidence and Easy. Please do more

Yes, it did run constantly on MTV! Vary cool watching the fish flapping on the floor at the end. In retrospect it makes me think of the end of Kill Bill. Great reaction!

The early 90s was a rennaisance for all music genres. Even country.

This is how the 90’s rock was like back then

Good reaction. I remember jamming to this on MTV all summer! Great song, great album. You should check out Falling to Pieces, the next song on the album.

all three so serious and nodding at the same time to the music 🤣🤣😂

Stone Cold classic.

Faith No More this is an alternative to glam rock and classic metal with blues elements, very similar to Nirvana, Rammstein, Alice In Chains, Nine Inch Nails 90s

Their version of of War Pigs off that album is pretty ballsy. Oh yeah, do some Bungle!!! Platypus....

Notice the MR BUNGLE shirt Mike is wearing?

Totally agree with the Linkin Park comparison about the ending.

The superhero analogy was pretty good.

They responded to the flak about the fish, by making the theme of their next video... Mike killing fish with a baseball bat. 🤘🧙‍♂️🤘 Rich the Ancient Metal Beast

I remember PETA having a fit over the fish!

The fish in the "Epic" video did create some controversy at the time, about whether or not the band had actually let a fish suffocate out of water while filming, and that it was a Goldfish belonging to pop singer Björk. In 2010 "Epic" video director Ralph Ziman set the record strait, debunking some of the urban legends that had cropped up over the years. Ziman came up with the idea for the flopping fish. It was not a Goldfish, nor did the fish belong to Björk, though she had light-heartedly supported the rumour. There was, in fact several of the feisty freshwater fish, which came from a pet store, that were used in the production, and that none were left out of the water for very long. After the shoot was all over, the fish were let go in the river. Strangely, the fish would actually pick up a following of its own, complete with a Facebook page.

Mike Patton is the greatest voice actor to have ever lived lolllllll

I haven't heard a lot of Faith No More, but I really liked "A Small Victory".

I think they were so far ahead of their time, people couldn't appreciate their genius.

502- dudes. oh you have to listen to faith no more. cover song. 'easy' thanks dudes. Peace. be safe . jp

Go buy their Best of.... Lots of hidden gems. Last Cup of Sorrow.

Okay here we go... FAITH NO MORE - The Real Thing Surprise, You're Dead Land Of Sunshine Zombie Eaters From Outta Nowhere A Small Victory Caffeine Be Aggressive MR BUNGLE - Carousel Slowly Growing Deaf My Ass Is On Fire Love Is A Fist

Did you ask if his voice was auto tuned? That was over half of a decade before autotune was even a thing. He has a power house of a voice.

Dude whom enjoys piano . ya may enjoy faiths version on Easy .. Must say they killed it in the bestest way

They do an awesome version of War Pigs by Sabbath!

502- dudes you have to listen to faith no more song - ashes to ashes. official music video. dope. peace be safe. jp

Here comes message from a metal capitol of the world Finland. Try band TANK and at least their songs Heavy Artillery and Turn Your Head Around. Good shit from Germany. Also motörhead songs Limb From Limb, motörhead and Orgasmatron (lyrics in this are total Lemmy awesomeness). I like your channel. Good shit /

If you haven't already done so, please consider reviewing Dream Theater. I think you guys would dig them. Pretty much anything off the Images and Words album, but the real gems are Under a Glass Moon and Take the Time.

Rock is laying it on thick! I think Frank Zappa said that! Probably not

You all need to react to War of Ages. Start off with Collapse. They do not disappoint.

Mosh pit banger!!!!!

"Everything's Ruined" next ....

Totally forgot about this song, but it all came screaming back to me. 😄 It was overplayed when it came out. So much going on in the video... Like it or appreciate it more now. Like your sidetrack with the villain... You are right, but assume they just want always stress good overcomes evil. But in every movie/show. That is it...

You three are awesome! Keep up the good work. Midlife Crisis by FNM would be a nice follow up. Peace, Love & Loud Guitars! 🤘

Both Axl Rose & Mike Patton are tied with a 6 Octave range Never really got into them but, definitely have my respect Nice One Guys! 🔥🎧✌️

Aerosmith & Run D.M.C. are the REAL Innovators of the Rock/Rap, Nu-Metal hybrid. They pave the way for Faith No More, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Rage Against The Machine, Limp Bizkit, Linkin Park, Saliva., Etc.

Poor piano, didn't need to be exploded. 😭

React to "Falling To Pieces", by Faith No More

The fish in this video was actually Bjork's pet! And she was NOT happy about its cameo here. 😆

Need to do Steve Vai - The Audience Is Listening

You guys have no idea about Mike Patton!

They were Before Linkin Park, catch up. Other than that, some good observations, appreciated. Hope you checked out more of this band and especially, the vocals of Patton. Incredible.

You guys look like you just came back from a night out in Key West lol

It seems you guys need a little more education about FNM. Mike Patton arguably has the widest vocal range and has a lot of different musical projects. oh and Mr. Bungle is still around. He also has a more classical solo album. Epic was a great song when it came out, but you are truly missing out if you haven't listened to the albums that came out later. Just to name a few awesome songs: Midlife Crisis, Stripsearch, etc. Peruse their discography! My favorite all time band!

Interweaving the rap also inspiring to Linkin Park

i just spat out my wine when he said that he sees a influence to the peppers. ah geez u need to dive deeeep in that story. Patton vs. Kiedis....

definitely a Gun & Roses Sound. But.....I am going to keep HAMMERING you guys until you play Little River Band. "It's a Long Way There". Damn, play this song and you will put it on your Playlist.

FNM was on there way to making it big but the music industry screwed them for the Red Hot Chilli Pepper's If you guys want to hear them at there best do a review please of the Real Thing all members where at there best and many would say including me that this is there best song hand's down Keep up the great job!!!!

Try their song "Evidence" or "Ugly In The Morning". Hell even "Cuckoo For Caca". They are all over the map musically.

"Chili 🌶️ Pepper "Esc"

There was some bad beef between Mike Patton and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers...went on for years or it was some kind of fake friendly thing, but shit talk made the actual music press. Mike Patton alluded that Anthony Kiedis copied Mike's style or some shit like that. Faith No More is the better band. You're just scratching the surface on them. King for a Day, Fool for a Lifetime is truly one of the great albums released during that time period and would even stand up now.

Hey, Could you plz react to Mornin’, The Theme from Moonlighting and Just to be Loved by Al Jarreau? This guy is AMAZING

Enjoying your reactions…could you react to Parisienne Walkways by Gary Moore ? Or any of Gary’s work - it’s brilliant

Could you react to Love Kills by Vinnie Vincent Invasion? The music video is very similar to Dream Warriors by Dokken!

Is it maybe time for a little more Home Free? 😁 Please 🙏 Listen To The Music God Bless The USA w/Lee Greenwood (w/flyover 🙂) Butts Remix/Medley Ain't Going Down Til The Sun Comes Up Sea Shanty Medley They're all a bit Adam-centric to some degree. I'm so looking forward to your reactions to these. 🙂

"It" is masturbation, everyone came to the conclusion after watching the video closely and seeing the keyboard player's t-shirt that says Master on the front

Check out there cover of war pig's
