Ode To Sleep | {Reaction} | Twenty One Pilots | BOP or FLOP 

“I love this drummer guy.” Same my dude. This 49-year-old Mom started taking drum lessons last year after watching Josh love three times! ✌🏻

NF is a huge fan of Twenty One Pilots and mentions them in his song "Know."

This definitely shows how they got big. They always had the same energy as if they were performing for a full arena, even if it was 12 people.

Scaled and Icy has me going on a twenty one pilots rampage right now

You all spoke and I heard you and I loved it! Thank you for the recommendations, you guys are awesome. I have many more to come. Let me know you thought of the song and what you caught that I didn't!

Fast part lyrics: on the eve of a day thats forgotten and fake as the trees they await and clouds anticipate the start of the day when we put on our face a mask that potrays that we don't need grace on the eve of a day that is bigger than us but we open our eyes cause we are told that we must and the trees wave their arms and clouds try go plead desperately yelling there's something we need

When I first heard this song I had to keep replaying it to catch all of the messages and words. He puts a lot of biblical references in their songs, so I look forward to your reactions to some of their other work

You did a great job picking up on the Christian theme in the last verse - it's jam packed and I've seen some other people in the comments explain other parts of it- I also like "a mask that portrays that we don't need grace" - it's all about him talking about his struggles with not singing about his beliefs directly and covering it in metaphors and cryptic lyrics The last verse is also live while the rest of the video is the recorded version - he's so good though you can't really tell except you can hear the crowd

Listen to A Car, A Torch, A Death. Taxi Cab. March to the sea. And I highly recommend Addict with A Pen.

Every single one of your reactions I think “holy shit yes!! This guy is so smart he’s getting all the references!!” and it’s to like literally every song no matter the genre or lyrical content you’ve got a real gift for understanding poetry!! ❤️❤️❤️

You can fetch the lyrics and read them to catch all.

The tattoo on Tyler's shoulder is a cross in negative

You are getting TOP pretty well on the first run through. Nice reaction! Enjoy your trip down the TOP rabbit hole!

great reaction man. i like how you listen to the lyrics and and pay attention but you dont overreact or anything. if youre looking for more songs by them to react to, i really recommend pet cheetah, or the trench music video trilogy (jumpsuit, nico and the niners, levitate. in that order) edit: oh, and if you're interested in his religious beliefs and where he currently stands on them, he gives a little bit of insight on that in the song morph

Yeah, you were pretty much spot on on the message and the meaning. And Jules seemed to have covered the clarification on the other points. It is known that they are Christians, but Tyler really doesn't want to push his believes on the fans. He actually ask them to give it their own meaning to his lyrics. Tyler's writing is so ambiguous sometimes, and people will relate to it in different ways, and that's basically what he's looking for. And since you will de doing Lane Boy, that song is from the Blurryface era (second album), and references both Stressed Out (video wise), and Ride (lyrics wise), so keep that in mind if you get stuck on something. The story goes something like this: Stressed Out Ride Lane Boy Heavydirtysoul Heathens Jumpsuit Nico and the Niners Levitate There's more songs that could be added to the story, but those are like the ones that will help you get the story they are trying to tell.

i’m always excited to see new people reacting to twenty one pilots, and i’m absolutely going to follow you on this journey good sir 😎|-/

i posted a similar comment on another reaction video to this song. i always hear the "do i threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant." in a mocking way. like how could i be so threatening to what youre trying to do if you find me insignificant? hahaha. could be completely wrong, but i cant unhear it that way 😋 love that youre reacting to top!

Another great reaction! Bet you’ll have several favorites, as you dive deeper into Twenty One Pilots’ seemingly endless hits (including some covers that they’ve done). They have a ton of great content for you to react to and we’re excited to watch. Thanks! ||-// 💛

Once you give Stressed Out, Ride and Heathens another listen, like a real listen to the lyrics, you'll change your mind.

Nice! Please do Trees...Live at the Fox Theater...it's the song they end their shows with...high energy fun!!!

Hi! I know I'm late to this but I'm making rounds because of the recent new TOP music. I wanted to comment because you are one of the very few people who has also reacted to the song Clear. These two songs to me are strongly connected. In Clear, he talks about choosing to cleverly mask his words as opposed to yelling on the street corner and in the second verse he says "wanna know what i believe, it's right here, dig a little deeper and it's crystal clear.". So while he is never overt and writes his songs very relatable, the truth is always there under the surface. In Ode to Sleep, at least in the third verse, I think he is struggling with whether that was the right decision. I really appreciate that you actually try to get to the heart of the lyrics unlike some who just breeze through. Just subbed!

Oh wow, I’ve been binge watching your TøP videos and now they make so much more sense to me. I remember in 2019 I was really struggling with fear and my own demons and a woman in an online Christian forum told me “god must have big plans for you”. So that lyric about tell them you have no plans for me to get the demons to leave him alone just clicked for me

I watch a lot of twenty one pilots reactions and yours are by far the most in depth and on point. Great job!

I feel that Tyler and Nate(NF) are cut from the same cloth.

I’m really enjoying watching you react to twenty one pilots. I think your interpretations are def on the right track.

"I did not like them until I heard Car Radio". I can relate; for me it was Heathens and Fairly Local that catched me, but Ode to Sleep was the reserves killer. Great reactions! Subscribed.

Wow fren. You are amazing at understanding and deciphering TOP! I'm so impressed. Keep up the great reactions. And welcome to the clique...it's a great place to be!! 😉💛🌻

Dude! You are spot on and the only reactor Ive seen that interprets the chorus the way i do. When you give your life over to God and use it to spread His message, you will meet opposition from the other side. I think Tyler understands this and is a little afraid of having a target on his back.

You should re-listen to Stressed out and Ride😊 Especially Ride, it's beautiful lyrics, and Tyler does some amazing versions on the piano, and one on just a keyboard at a concert.❤🖤

I love these kinds of reactions especially for TØP.

16:09 SAME!! All I had heard was Stressed Out, Ride and Heathens. But then I heard House of Gold randomly on RU-vid one day and fell down the rabbit hole and I'm SO GLAD I DID :)

When I first heard this song I was stunned. It described my nights to a T. The nightmares are so bad that I don"t want to go back to sleep [I'll stay awake 'cause the dark's not taking prisoners tonight]. So I end up with two hours of sleep. People [or monsters] chasing me, searching for me while I run and hide, and I don't know why, what threat I could possibly be to them. Why won't you let me go? Do I threaten all your plans? I'm insignificant.

It’s a hard song bc the rap is super fast and the lyrics are cryptic. Tyler does write the lyrics with open interpretations to most of the songs. They don’t make any bad songs!!

I always thought by “Why won’t you let me go? Do I threaten all your plans? I’m insignificant” meant that he doesn’t think that he should be a threat to the demons because he doesn’t think he has a good enough connection with god to be a threat to them. Therefore he’s confused on why they won’t leave him alone.

Such a good reaction.

You should listen to truce. You may not even react to it, but I think it would help you solidify your understanding of the night being the most vulnerable time for Tyler.

I had never heard of this group before, until I stumbled across "Car Radio" and now this one. I usually don't like music like this (ones that I can't understand half of what they say, because they talk so fast). But I am beginning to like these videos. And on both videos, I LOVE THE DRUMMER!!

Us react channels need to support each other, and on another level us Twenty One pilot fans need to support each other!

I think I've only seen one other person catch onto the meaning of "won't tell you who I'm singing towards" so nice job there lol

You are the best reactor

Damn you're good 🤩👏

I'll let everyone else explain the lyrics, etc., but a musical point for you to consider. You may want to rewatch it or simply just listen. But do it with this in mind: they just explored more genres in three to four minutes than some bands do throughout their entire career!

the line in the song, where Tyler says "same amount that i denied" he's referencing in the bible when the Romans are looking for Jesus to kill him and are asking around to find him, and John (one of the desciples) denies knowing Jesus three times

Yeah good to listen to lyrics. Beginning beat is fire and love the I go up up up up up to the ceiling then I feel my soul start leaving like an old mans hair receding. Lyrics are amazing. Holding onto you is off same album as this and car radio. Go that path w migraine guns for hands and trees. They have Christian background. Notice tattoo on shoulder....i i can see the cross between the letters

Every reactor says 'Tyler and this sick drummer guy'. I wanna yell his name is Josh.

I like your reaction videos. May I please make one suggestion tho? Please turn up the volume on the song because I can't hear it. I can hear you but I have my volume all the way up and I can barely hear the song. Thank you. 😁✌🏻

They did over play Stressed Out and Ride....but when I listen to them...I truly realize theyre actually good songs with some legit meaning. They’re not my favorites from the band, but I like them. I think a lot of people automatically switched off the thought of listening to Twenty one pilots due to the hype there for a while, but once ppl delve into what they truly do...it seems they tend to develop respect. This song imo is referencing the portion of the Bible where Peter denied Jesus 3 times. Tyler is definitely a deep thinker.

11:24 , Donnie

Or...12 ppl audience is not worthy of, but he gained all of that 12000 adoration in a few years, and suddenly the demons did find him interesting ,so apparently gods plan didn't hide him from the demons.......I'm not religious in any way, but that! is my interpretation of the song. His success exposed him to the demons.

You should react to semi-automatic

you should react to fake you out by them!

Yo I thought you were jacksepticeye for a second lol

Stay awake. Stay alive

Idk if you're interested in checking out any new artists at this time but I think you would really dig Alec Benjamin! I believe he is THE best song writer of this generation. Just like TØP & NF, he touches on his struggles with depression & anxiety. He's a really cool dude lol my favorites of his are Must Have Been the Wind, Demons & Oh My God

You know whats up with tyler beinv Christian

To much pausing, you can look at the lyrics I dont really like when you rewind and pause it a lot, I'm more into the reaction and explaining it but it's too long, great video!

Every reactor says 'Tyler and this sick drummer guy'. I wanna yell his name is Josh.
