Goodbye is about Eric’s best friend committing suicide. Eric found out when he was on the bus during a tour. Such a heartbreaking song, makes me want to cry every time I hear it
I'm sure you're just as excited as I am to see their new stuff live!! Possible concert vlog or concert recap for sure!! Thank you so much for watching, that makes me happy when I know people enjoy what I upload! :)
AHHHH!!! So many people told me to watch the music videos, to understand the songs... so I watched them ASAP. I didn't even think of filming a reaction for the music videos! I am so sorry hun! I will keep this in mind. I usually always remember to record my reactions to music videos. Darn!!
Aw it's okay! I'm happy you at least saw them. I mostly wanted to see if maybe the music video had an impact and maybe changed how you felt about the song(:
This is one of my favorite reactions to this album. I really appreciate that you feel and understand the message they are send out with their lyrics. I can see how you feel the music, and look forward to seeing more reactions. You got a sub out of me with this one. Hang in there, good things are just on the horizon for you.
Oh my goodness, thank you so much for the kind words! I really appreciate you taking the time to comment on my video and share with me your thoughts! Thank you for subbing!
great video!!!! it took me 3 days to stop listening to this album. got this album logo thing tatted on my ribs last friday. i'm in love. the release date came in at a perfect time for me personally... i'm so happy to be listening to one of the bands that saved my life again.. I PREVAIL
Thank you so much man, I really appreciate it!! I have PTV lyrics tattood on my wrist. Sometimes, when the music hits in the right way and is so impactful, you want to keep it with you. I totally get it!! Crazy how music is with timing and being there when you need it! I wish you positive vibes and happier days my love! Thank you for taking the time to watch my video!
I've seen plenty of album reviews and I've heard this album on repeat so many times by now, and every single time I have the same thought: this album holds a special place in my heart because it hits so close to home. The lyrics describe every single emotion that I've gone through, the highs and lows, moments where I feel nothing short of unstoppable, to the rock bottoms. And it's amazing how close to home it hits. I love how you're so up front about the review and that you're okay being vulnerable.
I've been struggling with depression and anxiety for the entire time I've been on this earth. This album was extremely relatable to me. I got to say I've always been a fighter but I'm getting weaker because I keep fighting depression over and over again. I just lose all that power to fight every time I get depressed. I'm honestly really struggling right now I got very little urge to fight it. People keep telling me to see a therapist which I've been doing since I was about 9. Nothing has helped not any medication I've been on a whole bunch of anti depressants breathing doesn't work either. I've been in my bed 24 hours a day cause that's the only that gets me away from hurting myself. When I'm awake I can't really trust myself. I loved your video though. I just subcribed.
Keep holding on love!! Life can be oh so tough, but you've made it this far. Think about how much more incredible music is going to be put out for people as you and I ! Sending love your way 🖤
you should watch the music video for hurricane, gives some insight, but basically i believe that 'Goodbye' is about Erics best friend who took his own life while I Prevail was on tour in 2016. hardest song to listen to on the album honestly
Ive been listening to them before they blew up and they have been in my top favorites, they have definitely helped many people including me through tough times
This album is very touching for people with severe depression. For some with depression, they can't put into words how they are feeling, and these songs do that. I even told my psychologist the lyrics for Hurricane, Paranoid and Let Me Be Sad, and how they are perfect descriptions of how I was feeling at the time even though I couldn't put it into words, these songs did it for me, I heard them and realised "This, this is how I'm feeling." And once I and my psychologist understood how I was feeling, we could work on it and figure out how to help me. I owe I Prevail so much, without these songs, I may not be here because I could properly get help.
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and reach out. I agree completely they depicted and illuminated a lot of feeling for myself when I was struggling to put them into words. 🖤 sending love!
I just found your channel now from a random recommendation from RU-vid, and for once it didn't point me in the wrong direction. The raw emotion you put forth is gripping, and between that and the music itself, resonates rather close to home with myself currently. I don't know what you're going through in your personal life, but I can tell you you're not alone with the struggle. And you've gained another sub.
This is a great video. I personally think this album is 10/10 maybe that's just cause I can connect to the songs. Songs like everytime you leave, paranoid, let me be sad. Songs like that and really all the songs on this album. I suffer from depression and anxiety and honestly this album has helped a lot!!!
Goodbye is about one of Eric's friends. To really understand their struggle over the past few years you have to watch the new Hurricane music video they put out. Also watch the video they made for breaking down. It is the most personal album I've ever listened to and I love it. I'm new to the channel my first video I've seen is this one and I like how real it was. Don't be ashamed of how you feel, I can personally vouch that i felt the same way listening to the album and that I struggle with terrible mental illness myself. Hang in there!
Nicholas O'Neill I wasn’t aware there were music videos out, thank you so much for letting me know! Hurricane is such a raw and real video, wow! Welcome to the channel!! Thank you so much for watching and the kind words. We have to stick together and support each other 🖤
I hope whatever you were going through, that you got past it. This band is amazing and I credit them with saving my life. Right around the time Lifelines came out I was in a really bad place, where I always felt alone and unwanted. That album 100% made me feel like I could get through anything and gave me just enough will to keep going. It's amazing what meaningful, relatable lyrics can do for somebody's metal state.
Hey James! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a sweet comment and showing love! I appreciate it so much! Music is such an incredible impact! Sending love your way 🖤
Im glad you understand the album, its more for awareness and meaning than anything else. Keep doing what you are doing, thouroughly enjoyed, if you need someone to takk to i am always here.
Honestly I'm with you when you said u were afraid of them letting you down and that's why I didn't get concert tickets... yet... And I'm definitely getting them...
Super late to seeing this reaction, but I loved it! I Prevail is my favorite band and this new album really solidified that fact. So much emotion in their songs. This reaction video just made me subscribe after randomly clicking on it while scrolling through youtube.
@@outdoorsybibliophile No Problem! This concert was one of my best memories of 2019! so happy for these guys and all that they've done after what they went through
Idk what i expected when i went into this video, but i liked it a lot. It was nice to see someone else smiling uncontrollably listening to this album. And i liked the perspective you had and the editing, great video
I was in the front row during the whole show when they played live. Definitely an experience to remember. Also getting to meet them with the VIP pass was memorable...theyre so down to earth and genuine people.
Just found your channel. I love that your emotional reactions are just so real. I love music and the feels you get with the good stuff. Thanks for sharing with us!
I appreciate your honesty and perspective. This album brought out everything and was definitely hard to encapsulate but something for everyone was a deliberate intention.
Love the vid, I would love to see your full reactions to the songs instead of them cut down. Maybe videos dedicated to every song? Either way these reactions were amazing and very genuine, great vid.
@@outdoorsybibliophile if you're looking for new music to react to I'd love to see your reaction to Bring Me The Horizons new album Post Human Survival Horror
Eric’s friend, if I remember correctly, committed suicide. I Prevail was touring at the time. I can’t even truly imagine what he went through or how he felt when he was told about it. Goodbye gives us an look into what he felt.
Much like yourself i found I Prevail from their Lifelines album and not only did it resonate with me so much, it highlighted aspects of my life i was and still am struggling through. Songs like Scars (my favorite) or Alone and Lifelines itself, stellar tracks, story, personal experience etc I just love this bands ability to do both heavy metal and softer stuff, showing the raw emotions, tangent aside, really liked your review of the album!
I absolutely agree with everything you shared here! Thank you so much for taking the time to comment and share you favorite songs I really resonate with paranoid and scars… but also breaking down.
@@outdoorsybibliophile They released True Power a few days ago and idk if you considered doing an album reaction buy Doomed really hits home and it's another song i resonate so much with!
Hey, I gotta say I appreciate you, and because i find that I Prevail is incredibly is incredibly underrated. Also my favourite song of theirs is Let me be Sad.
I make that face at 9:52 close to 50 times a day Edit: just finished the video and I'm so happy that this album hit you like it hit me. This album has literally saved my life and I can't thank them enough. I can't wait to see these guys in October. Definitely getting a tattoo dedicated to these guys because I can't thank them for their music enough.
I can say just have seeing them live here in Phoenix!!!! There’s new song live are badass Gasoline,BowDown, Hurricane, breaking down, Paranoid, and rise above it along with Scars and stuck in my head and of course with Come and get best concert I’ve been to in years wish I could catch another date from the Trama tour me and gf and our friends badass blast these song helped heal me that night!! These guys were like medicine!!
Hi there!! I have actually listened to them before so it wouldn't be an authentic reaction!! I could do another I Prevail video though?? Any requests??
I'd really like to see you react to the album "haven't been myself" by Too close to touch. The final track on that album is especially heartbreaking. Take caution.
