Actually on them being rich, I think they’ve only recently started making money. On an interview they said that because they love the art side of performing they’ve been operating basically at a loss just to tour and have incredible visuals etc, they’ve pretty much lost money or broken even just because they love touring and putting on bombastic performances so much.

@Ethanjohnathan 5 месяцев назад

I’d like to say that AJR is three brothers. Adam, Jack, and Ryan. Jack is the main singer. Adam is mainly the base. Ryan is the backup singer, guitar. He is also the beat makerish. I heavily recommend listening to the rest of the album

@brodyplaysthebaritone 2 месяца назад

There are also other people involved, like Arnetta, their trumpet player. Not sure about the other people, but they exist, I swear!

Not to crap on you (AT ALL I SWEAR), but I think Jack plays guitar.

I'm not a devoted follower of AJR, but every time I come across their music, I've been impressed. Each song of theirs I heard has been about the difficulty of being a human being. And who can't relate to that?

@zntm 5 месяцев назад

the interludes at the end somewhat represent their older albums main sound the trumpet being from OK ORCHESTRA, the modern piano being from The Click, and the violin and sampling from Neotheater

@amequarianairedalemom4753 7 дней назад

AJR is one of THE most underrated artists out there today. I’ve seen them three times live and they put on one hell of a show!! Ryan has synesthesia and is an absolute genius. There is genuinely so much talent in this family. ❤❤

@sophieplourde9327 5 месяцев назад

Loved this reaction!! I've been a huge fan of AJR for a long time, and something cool about this song is that it is actually an overture to the remaining songs on the album it belongs to! Each 'concept' pertains to one song😄

@demongirlfriend 5 месяцев назад

honestly too many people fail to give this album a chance because of AJR's earlier work being more immature-feeling, but this album is a damn good example of the maturation of AJR's style over time, starting from a childish sense of arrested development all the way to starkly grappling with responsibility and identity

@ShyGuy1347 4 месяца назад

Great analyses. I really enjoyed your reaction. Some recommendations, this song has a companion song in "2085". They bookend the album. Also, they have a song that's directly about that external/ internal validation point you made, called "hole in the bottom of my brain" that I think you'd enjoy. Finally, "inertia" is a very musically interesting song from this album. Also my personal favorite.

@isaiahjoiner1625 5 месяцев назад

This song is actually so cool cuz it’s all about wanting to be different stuff and exploring who you are, and it serves as an introduction to and table of contents for the album that it’s a part of. That’s why it’s all over the place, and why it ends so differently than it begins. The ending that makes more sense is at the end of the last song, 2085. Fun fact, the album is called The Maybe Man, and this song Maybe Man is the first. The last song, 2085, which ends the first song and the album, when you break it apart to be 20, 8, and 5, spells “the.” This puts the beginning of the album at the end and the end at the beginning, showing how confusing and exploratory this album is

@psychosharko453 5 месяцев назад

I’d like to mention, these brothers aren’t that rich. They just recently moved out of their NYC apartment into a small townhouse, and they still don’t have a studio, they use their living room (aka their 2015 album title).

@yandelito7706 5 месяцев назад

I highly suggest listening to the rest of this album. Each track is so different instrumental wise and it’s honestly amazing how much work going into them.

@RobbieGross 2 месяца назад

As a die hard AJR fan I loved this break down. You did an awesome job with this video and won a new fan over. They are also the nicest guys. You can see in my shorts them meeting my 5 year old and giving him the best day of his life. (He is a bigger fan than me).

@JamescraftAim 2 месяца назад

This song is just.... it feels like a broadway song to me. It feels like it takes this orchestral approach and mixes it with some of the modern stuff learned through the thousands of years of music making. This whole album and so much of there music feels very unique to me. I love music and while I'm not professional in it.... God its so cool to see people talk about it from a different point of view. Being able to try and pick up what other professionals see and hear is just so fun and ajr's music is such an example of that as they hind so many little things that even (in my eyes) professionals wouldn't see. Amazing reaction and analysis gonna need to watch other of your videos cause god its cool to see everything I mentioned. One last thing is that this song and a lot of there music are very philosophical and from a psychology perspective and philosophy perspective it's just so fun to dig into. (to me at least)

I absolutely adore AJR, and I sometimes look up reactions to them because I love watching other people discover their music. It's normally difficult to find them, but I saw your video and immediately started watching it. I've never heard of your channel before, but I really wish I had!! You picked up on things your first time listening that I hadn't noticed after months. You're such a thoughtful and genuine person, and everything you say adds to the experience of the music. Thank you for this amazing reaction.

His name is Jack and he is the main vocalist, although AJR is a band made of three brothers. The other two brothers are Adam and Ryan. It's why they are called AJR, Having the initial letter of each of their name.

The interludes as others have pointed out, are actually samples like you noticed. They come from their previous songs which had a slightly different style to them than this album.

@Jae_Birde 4 месяца назад

I highly recommend watching their "How we made" videos! They do breakdowns of the musical production behind their songs and how they came up with the unique sounds they use, and it's really cool to watch! They did it for two of their songs, "Weak" and "Bang", and they're both so cool to watch. I'd love to see your reactions to more of AJR too, they're one of my favourite bands and their music is just so good! I loved your reaction and analysis too!

@davidlewis3435 5 месяцев назад

i seriously recommend listening to the rest of the album the song belongs to called "The Maybe Man." and if you want to explore more, i also recommend both of their previous albums, "OK ORCHESTRA" and "Neotheater." they also have another album before those two called "The Click"

Hey I'm new here and I'm so glad you got to talk to Eric Whitacre we actually did one of his songs I believe in choir I was in high school choir I graduated last year in 2023 and we did one of his songs I think it was like glow or something like that I don't know but we did do it for Winter concert it was so beautiful and it was so amazing to learn it was just a great song overall my dad still listens to our choir singing it like even if it's not Christmas

@THE_funnyalt 4 месяца назад

I really recommend you listen to the last song in this album called 2085. It’s quite a bit longer, but it’s an emotional, wild song which links into this one quite unexpectedly. It’s probably my favourite song to be honest.

@annevoss4302 5 месяцев назад

@Cashcorn 5 месяцев назад

11:11 They’re for sure rich. I think the main point of this line was the end of the stanza “Nobody’d feel bad for me at all.” Also, it’s important to note Jack is playing a character called “The Maybe Man”

I'm finally back (guess who's here ;) you have two likes from me as a bonus). I still have to go back to videos I missed. As an animator I thought about animation of this MV... Firstly it reminded me of AI generated MVs of Beth Roars (I recommend checking them out, especially "Anxiety Society"), but this one is different after all. I specialize in traditional frame by frame animation so it's still quite outside of my expertise, but it looks for me like a mix of few techniques. There are some flat digitally painted background parts, but most are obviously 3D. And of course the main character is 3D too, with an animated paint texture placed on it, but not as a standard 3D texture, it's somehow placed as a kind of additional layer (but it's just my guess). Hard to say how much of it was done manually and how much automatized (it's amazing what AI can do these days). Still I agree it's a very interesting and creative animation.

Only until recently, they made their music out of their living room. They only recently could afford to build a studio. (Partially because their business manager over several years stole A LOT of money from them but that’s a whole other story). So no, they are not that rich.
