The reference “Kamikaze” in the song was a nod to Eminem as Ronnie is a big fan of Em… and the visual reference you mentioned that reminded you of MGK was a direct diss at Kelly… Ronnie would never F with MGK!
for me the the falling in reverse journey started with popular monster. after that i was hooked on this band. still hoping they tour to europe some day. anyways. since you seen watch the world burn i would recommend the live version to. :) but with their songs you cant go wrong, i suggest do them all lol :D
As someone else commented, you caught the MGK Dig that I think I've only seen 1 other person catch in a reaction. I thought it was pretty d*mn obvious with the wig style but it gets overlooked so much. I saw FIR 2 weeks on Disturbed's "take back your life" tour and his voice, on EVERY song, was dead on. And Tyler, the bassist, who does the backing vocals was amazing as well (I think he gets overlooked a lot when people hear their music). Ronnie actually started this song crouched down and had the same power and enunciation where most people couldn't have the breath support so that its not a jumbled mess. AND he did it right after "the drug in me is you" where he is constantly back and forth across the stage. The man doesn't stand still. 😁
This song is actually about when he was dealing with hypochondria and health anxiety. This song keeps wanting more. Just wait till you get to his reimagined and revamped songs. The Drug in me is you released 2011 and The Drug in me released 2021 and I am not a Vampire released 2011 and I am not a Vampire Revamped released 2021. If you could do the orginal and reimagined videos in the same video that will give you a great comparison of how much FIR and Ronnie have grown in their music. Great Reaction ❤
When reactors speculated if this was a MGK diss (costume, kill shot, the target optic) he didn't say anything and just smiled. Later he said in an interview that it was supposed to be his old self (from the losing my life time) and everything else is just a coincident. Personally I don't believe it. Ronnie is a master in making little talk. And he's a perfectionist. Nothing in his music or videos is just happening by chance. Plus he's a huge Eminem fan and friends with Corey Taylor (who both had beef with MGK). Anyways... Great reaction.
Yea I am with ya, specially he says " like a Kamikaze" at the part of shooting the MGK look alike , Kamikaze being the album he really killed MGK with "Not Alike" that verse is so underrated
I think it is in Fact a MGK Reference. If you listen carefully you can hear he uses the word Kamikaze and he does a Killshot with the gun. Both is a direct Reference zu Eminems Kamikaze Album and Killshot where he disses MGK!
the reason this song, to me, is so good and one of my favorites is because if you take away one single element for example the trap style snare at the beginning or anything else, its not the same song. theres so many different things going on in the background and not one sound is better than the other but without one it makes the song fall flat. also the MGK thing i wont lie, my first listen i thought he was trying to imitate MGK too! alot of people speculated that this was a shot at MGK because the sound plus the look and the crosshair from the sniper simulating Killshot (ntm Eminem is one of Ronnies biggest influences) but Ronnie has denied all of that and says its all coincidence. but cmon, anyone thats listened to more that one of their songs knows that nothing they do is coincidence lol. and it wouldnt be the first time hes put some kind of current event "beef" inna video (lookin at you Sebastion Bach)
Have you done Popular Monster, Zombified or Last Resort (Papa Roach cover)? Also.... New Twenty One Pilots on February 29th!!! ( teaser "I am Clancy" the other day)
I thought the same thing on the MGK thing. Sorry chronic weed smoker if that doesn't make sense then it's 🔥. MGK just dropped a 🔥 hit as well. I felt every word he sang Don't Let Me Go. #LaceUp🏴❌❌
fam, i mean no direct offense when i say this, but MGK is trash and anyone who features him will lose my respect, so i PRAY Falling in Reverse NEVER feature him.
