PLEASE DON'T END... | EUCLID | SLEEP TOKEN 

The lyricism in the song is just amazing. The “gimme 5 whole minutes” is crazy. The song being 5:18, and the singing starts at exactly 0:18 in the song, so you give him exactly 5 whole minutes. God I love this band

Kyle holding it together the whole time is how 99% of us feel while listening lol. I’ve never cried so much because of a song

I read a comment that said Sleep Token feels like "discovering a new colour" and it is the most accurate description of them that I have yet seen.

Euclid is Vessel’s way of paying tribute to all of the album’s they have put so far. It is a a final goodbye to the trauma and heartache from his past relationship and a somewhat joyful look to the future. With the ending looping back to the night does not belong to god making the trilogy of albums a perfect loop. Those feelings of hurt are lessened but the scars will always be present. I love your reactions and glad I could see your Sleep Token journey. ❤

The line "yet in reverse you are all my symmetry, a parallel I would lay my life on" is so great. parallel lines never cross, they go their own way. such a clever way to show acceptance that 2 people paths won't cross. and then in the end "i know for the last time you will not be mine" relating to it and circling back to the first song of sundowning. Just incredible.

Seeing Kyle break at "For me it's still the autumn leaves" hit me. That spot gets me every time. It's not necessarily thinking of autumn leaves specifically. But I think metaphorically we all have our "autum leaves." Specific memories of a time or place that is embedded in our brain that just invoke emotion within us. For whatever reason, that line just gets me.

just the fact that it ends how it began, like an endless cycle, is beautiful to me. the drums after “the night belongs to you” are the same that play when he sings “the night comes down like heaven” in the first song, “this bough has broken through” is a direct callback to their older song “when the bough breaks”, “do you still believe nothing else matters” is a callback from “blood sport”, i could go on forever about how genius this song is.

I cry tears of pure joy to this song. I lost my wife 5 years ago(she was only 35). This song really hits home for me. Thanks my Brothers for doing this album. It was amazing to watch yall!

I didn't know who Sleep Token was before this album. They are now my favorite band by far. This album is such an unbelievable masterpiece. A once in a lifetime perfection of music. Every single song has such an important place. When I think I'm going to just listen to a song on the album I find myself going back to the beginning and just listening to it all again.

Hoping this album gets some Grammy recognition for Album of the Year. Probably wishful thinking though but they deserve it for sure.

that little smirk and "okay..." from eric when "these ancient canopies" played..

The moment I heard "The night belongs to you" I was in tears. (TNDNBTG callback) and then immediately the next line "the bough was broken through" just sent waterfalls down my face. (Song - When the Bough Breaks ref.) Ending with TNDNBTG which was where Sundowning started is such a cool way to wrap the trilogy together

Do not apologize for pausing!! This is a reaction channel correct?? You can pause and talk about the song whenever you feel the need. When something in it hits you, share that with us. We are here for YOUR reaction. If people want to hear or see the video uninterrupted, they can go watch the actual video. I want to hear everything you have to say about the music, specially the songs I enjoy. This was a phenomenal reaction and maybe you guys can do a cave cast episode about this entire album now that you’ve heard it all.

Perfect end to the trilogy. Lyrically it brought the albums to a close in the most satisfying way. Note all the lyric call backs too to past albums and songs. Such awesome storytelling/writing.

Their second album "This Place will Become Your Tomb" is also reaction worthy...wink wink...

“Yet in reverse you were all my symmetry, a parallel I would lay my life on”. Is a lyric that happens to have elements of geometry in it. It’s interesting because the father of geometry’s name was Euclid, the name of this song. Euclid also means “A copy of the same” which vessel has expressed quite a bit in this song, which I believe one of those lyrics was “I must be someone new”

I just realized this song doesn't go back to the first album Sundowning, but it goes back to the very first EP One with When The Bough Breaks with the lyrics "This bough has broken through". Every time I listen to their music, I find something new that amazes me. Just, wow ❤

If you listen to the album from start to finish, it's an absolute emotionally roller coaster. I've never listened to an album and literally been exhausted at the end of it. Throughout the album, you can tell Vessel has been through some true trauma in life, and this album is his therapy or courage to face it. By the end of the album, you can hear some sort of healing or acceptance of whatever that trauma was or still is. You can see it in his mask as well. In the beginning, his mask was constricting, closed off, or hiding his pain. Currently, it's peeling back almost like it's releasing him in sense. I could go on for days about the band, but at the end of the day, the album is a masterpiece.

Just hear me out- this song, at my funeral. That’s how I want to be said goodbye to. It has everything. Beautiful vocals, instrumental moments that just grab you by the throat. That’s what I want.

To see eric go from sceptical in the beginning with chokehold and becoming a fan has been an awesome journey.

Boys let me tell you. Hearing this live is something else. It was a absolutely surreal experience that I will never forget. And hearing the last few notes of this song at the end brought tears to my eyes because I knew it was the end of the show and I just didn’t want it to end.

The line “this bough has broken through” is a reference to their song ‘When the Bough Breaks’. Which is a song released before Sundowning.

The line that gets me is “and if your wings don’t find you heaven, I will bring it down like an ancient bygone”. I lost my grandmother in October and she was one of the very few people I felt truly close to, and I feel this very way about her.

The first time I heard this song, I was laying in bed with headphones on and it took me on an absolute emotion journey. And when the song was finished I found myself laying in a puddle of happy tears and I had to pick my jaw up off the floor. Absolute masterpiece.

Vessel’s lyricism is phenomenal! I’m 63 and I’m obsessed. I can’t wait to see you react to their older music. I’m eager to see if we have the same insights. The only ‘hint’ I will give (and it’s not really a hint) is that I’ve never seen a band get this deep of a reaction from men as Sleep Token. This is Man Speak lyrics and it’s almost overwhelming to hear such honesty. I feel privileged to listen. Thanks again guys. I am here for more

Euclid ends with the lyrics from TNDNBTG but with the keys going up in tune giving it a more hopeful feeling as opposed to TNDNBTG feels slight somber. It truly feels like the end of the story and that there’s hope at the end of it all. 1. Attraction 2. Lust 3. Ascension Worship 🖤

Im so conflicted man. My heart is desperate for more. But in my mind I understand, they poured every ounce of emotion and energy into this. How do you top it or follow it up if theres nothing left? I've pretty much resigned to the idea that music won't make me feel this way again for a very long time, maybe ever. It's unbelievably bittersweet. So grateful I got to experience it.

Kyle not wanting this song to end like we don't want the boys sleep token reactions to end. Great videos guys.

This album literally saved my life, it helped me through my breakdown. I cried seeing vessel singing live. Sleep token are amazing ❤

The other day I had a panic attack and ended up in the emergency room and the entire time I was laying there in the ER bed feeling like I was dying, I had this song playing in my head. It was a source of comfort. I’ve been waiting for this reaction and it didn’t disappoint. Thank you for this.

This is my favorite song from them. I found them at hard time in my timeline and they've helped me get through it. So glad I found this band. Worship.

This album and this song has been so moving to me! Just brings joy and tears at the same time. I was so excited for this one! ❤️❤️ ♾️

I’m glad you guys have been able to enjoy a Sleep Token as much as the rest of us, it’s been fun watching your journey through this album and I can’t wait to see how you guys like their previous work and how much you start to see it in Take me back to Eden. I started listening to Sleep Token in August of last year before they released the album They quickly became my favorite band and I’m going to see them live tomorrow here in Michigan where I’m from and it’s also my birthday tomorrow, I could not have asked for anything better after discovering this band other than seeing them live on my birthday for the first time.

The whole song feels to me like bittersweet nostalgia. Especially the end, the end feels like a flash back all the way to the beginning at the end of the story, showing how far they’ve come. Worship! ❤

The "Do you still believe that nothing else matters?" was so deep

This has been a journey!! To watch you two react to this album has been a real treat, and I want to thank you both for your honest and genuine love for Sleep Token I can’t wait for you guys to now go do Sundowning and then This Place Will Become Your Tomb, all I ask is that you do the albums in order so that you can experience it correctly, YOU GUYS ROCK, really enjoyed this #WORSHIP 🙏🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🙏🏻 Euclid is my favorite song off TMBTE and it makes me emotional every time I hear it Here is a fun fact about this album. Sleep token I think invited about 60 or 65 of their fans in England to a secluded location to listen to this album before it was released. Vessel came out and sat in his full outfit and just watched people, listen to the album in its entirety. Watching them cry and take everything in, and when it was done, he waved and bowed and gave them the heart sign and left… COULD YOU IMAGINE?!?!

HELL YES YALL ARE FINALLY DOING EUCLID

Euclid is so emotional. I wish i could experience this song for the first time again. The emotions that went through me and the tears i cried. I'm flying with my daughter to Chicago to see them.

From the moment I heard it, Euclid became my favorite track on the album. I've listened to it on repeat for hours. Such a beautiful piece and perfect ending.

For me “..the autumn leaves, these ancient canopies, the bough broke thru, I must be someone new..” hits me so hard I bawl like a newborn. As a sufferer of depression and trying to figure out who I am and deal with trauma, it speaks to a path of self discovery, of letting go of old wounds and how easy it is to “lay beneath these canopies” or fall back into old habits of self criticism and reliving your trauma over and over again. When the bough breaks, you reach a breaking point, you decide you want to be better and you embark on the journey of self healing and self love. I hope anyone else who reads this interpretation who suffers from depression and/or trauma or any other mental illness finds it useful and know that this moment was meant for you to be here and to read this and be enlightened. May your journey of healing and self love be fruitful and uplifting forever ❤

Thank you gentlemen, it was a pleasure to join this whole album reaction ride with you guys. Take me back to eden is a masterpiece. I'm 38yo and this album is at least the best album of the decade for me. I have not heard anything like this for a very long time. Pure perfection!

Found them through will Ramos myself and easily supplanted every other band as my all time favorite band. As someone in my 30s whose listened to tons of music I never thought I’d find a new band that could do that. What a beautiful musician

I have never gone down the rabbit hole with a band so hard and so fast as Sleep Token. Euclid makes me weep. I dont want it to end. I never want it to end. Worship.

I genuinely love your guys’ appreciation for the lyrics and your ability to put together the callbacks. You’ll recognize more the more you listen to their old music ◡̈

I’m not crying ..you’re crying ✨♥️ Goosebumps all over me with your reaction. 🖤

I’m over here watching this in my work truck on a break crying with Kyle trying to get it together for my next appointment 😂😂😂

This whole song is so gorgeous, the whole cyclicic thing they do weaving lyrics and melodies together from multiple tracks, it's so intense in the best possible way

Literally refresh every morning at 8am. BEEN WAITING SO LONG, I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS

I still cry when I hear this song if I can't distract myself 😅 It's just so good & touching. It sounds like the ending of something but there's this hope that makes it also sound like the beginning of something new. I cannot wait for your reactions to their older work. 🥰

Been looking forward to this for so long, beautiful song.

I cant wait until you get to the EPs and see the callbacks to those masterpieces too ✨🙌

This song brought me to my knees the first time I heard it. Thank you two for taking us along with your experience of TMBTE. I love watching others feel the same things I feel when I listen to this band, and it’s been a great journey. “Then stars arise, and the night is holy.” Worship.

Can’t wait for you guys to listen to This Place Will Become Your Tomb. The first song Atlantic is so so good. So glad you enjoyed this album, i’ve been looking forward to this reaction all week.

14:31 The main event that actually started this journey was his longtime girlfriend suffering from mental illness over the course of a longtime. Eventually taking her own life and he had these dreams of a deity named Sleep. His songs are tokens and shows are rituals where you worship by listening to tokens for Sleep. Worship!😁❤ Love all the reactions hope you do the other albums!

The lyrics of "This Bough Has Broken Through" refers to his one of his old track : When The Bough Breaks.

Euclid, to me, sounds like a “goodbye”. It chokes me up every single time.

I had listened to this album so many times since it dropped last may, and a couple weeks ago I was driving listening to it like usual but Euclid just hit me and made me bawl out of nowhere I started laughing and crying at same time cause I had no idea how they can make me feel how they do.

The whole album has just been such an absolute wild ride, and I'm glad you guys are finally HERE. I remember when the singles were still slowly drip-feeding us, and The Summoning was the best thing I'd ever heard from these guys, but then they released the title track and it totally blew THAT out of the water ... but then when I finally heard the actual ALBUM I completely fell in love with Ascenscionism. But now, finally, after a few months of just playing this OVER AND OVER AGAIN, THIS ONE has finally, truly become my very favourite Sleep Token song of all ...

I’m so happy that you guys did this one as it’s one of my favorites. Really beautiful.

Listening to these songs with you guys somehow makes them even more powerful, and simultaneously easier to handle as well. You bring such a passion for the music and respect for the meaning, but also keep it fun. Watching your reactions is truly like sharing an experience with good friends. There's no higher praise i can give.

This is such an absolutely beautiful ending to such an amazing journey of musical love, harmony, and absolute adventure. This album….and most importantly this song is the song both me and my fiancé listen to and have chosen as our song. From sleep tokens first album, and then when they started this trilogy we have both been fans, but also it’s one of the things that brought us together In probably one of the hardest times in our relationship. It makes me so excited and somehow at peace that you guys have done this. Your reactions, your everything have been so beautiful. I’ve been following you both for quite a while now and have loved every single second of your reactions. Thank you both..truly.

This is one of the very few songs that every single time I hear, I get so emotional that I have shivers all over my body and get choked up wanting to cry. In the best way possible though. So many emotions all at once, it is almost a surreal experience. Sleep token truly gave us something special💙

This reaction was such a great way to start the day! This song makes me so emotional as well. It’s so beautifully written. Love you guys! Keep it up! ❤

Hey guys! Been along for your sleeptoken ride absolutely love and appreciate your commentary been waiting for you guys to get to this one! Its been years since an album has moved me this much. Very excited to see them in concert tomorrow!!! When you guys get into their older stuff, "Mine", "sugar" and "give" are great ones if your feelin baby-making sleeptoken and "Atlantic" and "the love you want" are amazing as well. Thanks for sharing with us!

I just heard this song for the first time tonight. I was not aware of the history or the callbacks, it was a pure first listen and it caught me off guard. I haven’t been able to see my daughter for a year and this song made me go through so many repressed emotions I have about the situation and I don’t know how to process. I didn’t know a song could make me feel this way. I’m destroyed.

Sleep token hooks you. I've been listening this none stop since release. I force myself to listen to something else. But keep coming back to this and back catalogue. Amazing band. 👍

Recently saw them live and let me tell you it was amazing. Their energy and songs are amazing. Euclid is one of my favs!

Kyle, I cried right along side you all over again. First time doing so on a Rykerroad journey haha. It was a beautiful ending. Much love to both you guys. Stay well 🤘 and always, Worship.

What a special album.. thank you guys

I must say I loved the references to the "aincent canopies they used to lay beneath" and then later on how he says It's very interesting really how this entire song seems to be directed towards Vessel, and one more person. Like he refers to himself as nothing but a bough holding the canopies of leaves and then breaking off to give the night to whoever is below... And therefore he must be someone new, since he is not just a bough holding a canopy of leaves anymore. I may be completely wrong, but... seems that way to me. Edit: just went back and listened to the night does not belong to god again... and there he opens with talking about someone who left in autumn and here he asks if do you remember me when the rain falls and when the water gathers... and "for me it is the autumn canopy we used to lay under" damn... this song just got heavier in meaning for me. Also... I missed one thing I think many of us did... the song is named Euclid, Euclid is know as "The father of geometry" he was one of the greatest mathmaticians and logicians of ancient greece. And isn't the masks they use geometry forms? at least the figure sitting there in this vid is... It could be a reference to another important figure with the same name, Euclid of Megara the student of Socrates, Founder of the megarian school of philosopy. And or just the meaning of Euclid... copy pasta from wiki here... 'eu-' (εὖ; 'well') and 'klês' (-κλῆς; 'fame'), meaning "renowned, glorious". The word 'Euclid' less commonly also means "a copy of the same", and is sometimes synonymous with 'geometry'.

seeing them on the 26th here in SLC... i will take you both in spirit with me. loved watching the journey through all the songs. i'm glad i wasnt the only one who reacted so strongly to them. thank you guys!

I've listened to this song probably over 100 million times, however watching you two react to it bought me back to that first time I heard it, I was crying with you, what a unbelievable song, thank you for sharing

Since english is not my first language, I am having problems understanding what he is singing. But the composition, the rhythm, the choice of notes, the chord progressions, the dynamics and the emotions make me understand the message. Their musical concept, the delivery and the passion is very special. I think it will het very hard for them to top this album after this one. I just hope that they take their time and produce the next album that is equal or even better.

Your faces from 1:43 - 2:00 are exactly how I would describe processing this entire album experience. Thank you both. This track had me running to everyone I know absolutely RAVING about how we could have possibly missed this band for so long and why they're doing something really special.

I’ve loved watching you guys speak about and absorb this band. Really glad it resonated so well with you both!

So much symbolism and emotion and meaning in this whole song, this album, the whole discography. Past reflection on the memory, the heat of emotion, the passion, the pain, the hate founded in places only those we love can hurt, the guilt, all of it, coming to revelation and acceptance to transform into something new. Just like the autumn leaves, just as they fall dead off the limbs they sat under, Vessel is undergoing a transformation, and even as so final a transition can be beautiful in its own right, the casting off to make room for something new and beautiful is also just as somber and joyous. Learning to accept, and still keeping the memories if they give him the night, as he continues on to new things, strikes me personally, and I think strikes anyone who had a relationship of passion that unfolded painfully and was hard to accept was over. They make me cry a lot.

Are we all collectively crying??

"This bough has broken through" Is a callback to One EP :)

You guys are amazing. Been watching you for a while and I'm from Ohio as well right near Cleveland. This song has no words to describe how it made me feel. Love you all, keep it up brothers!!!!!

This song makes me well up everytime it makes me reflect on all the things ive experienced and feel nothing but love for my wife and family and friends i have and even feel love for things and people ive lost throughout my life its an absolute banger

It's kinda silly but when you said "I don't want it to end" that brought me to tears, because that's how this song makes me feel. I don't want the good times to end.

The beautiful thing about Sleep Token, is their style is so flexible and with every song you can expect the unexpected. Their music is beautiful. After listening to them I got my wife and kids listening to them and we all absolutely love Sleep Token.

I have been waiting *impatiently* for this reaction! My favorite song off the album! Well done!

This has been great, I found you guys through me finding Sleep Token, and then have thoroughly enjoyed your reactions to so many other artists at this point, but I do just want to say I have enjoyed listening to this whole journey and album along with you as well. Appreciate you guys and what you are doing.

With the closure of this album and the amount of love you guys have for Sleep Token, I can't wait for you to experience the entire journey. Much love, guys. Worship 🙌

This will mean even more after you hear all of the other albums. So many little call backs. It's perfect. ❤ Whoever made the lyric video, it's hard on the eyes. I had to not watch that part of the screen.

I remember the day this came out and I heard it I was at work, and as soon as the callback kicked in I literally teared up and stuttered out loud trying to think of “the night does not belong to god” but couldn’t even speak, I really appreciate how emotional Kyle gets over their songs, I feel his emotions because I get the same way, if I had to guess I’d say he’s been through plenty of painful times with relationships. Those are emotions that never go away

I’m so sorry they aren’t coming close to ya’ll!!! I’m seeing them tomorrow and I’m so excited. I totally agree, this is my favorite album of all time. I have never fallen for a band so fast and so hard as I did with Sleep Token this year. I’m so glad you both got to go on this journey as well! Can’t wait to see more! Worship.

Here's my personal take on this titanic gem of a song: After taking us on a three album journey of heartache, melancholic beauty, and a sharing of pain that gave us all a sense of community and understanding, Sleep Token, and Vessel in particular gave voice to the pain that we all carry for the majority of our lives. I can testify, that sometimes that's all you can do. Very often the only solace I can give the brothers and sisters who share my affliction is to say, "I feel your pain, let's ride this out together." I see Euclid as a reward for making it through these five years by not dwelling on the pain, but acknowledging it, thanking it for it's lessons, and bidding it farewell. From the very first note, Euclid delivers light and beauty, and it gives us the proof that we have always known, that there is always light after dark if we just keep moving forward. I am not exaggerating when I say that this song, coming after all of their other incredible music, has made me feel like I'm still in this fight and that I can keep putting one foot in front of the other with a smile on my face.

Hmmm.... Sleep Token are pretty good aren't they?

Watching them get blown away by the lyrics is making ME think about them deeper and want to cry to. This one always sounded like they said like bittersweet happy. Like a saying goodbye ending of a movie

Yes, this is all i listen to every day since last summer! I just cant stop. The songs dont get old the more u listen them (at least for me)

Kyle,Eric I’ve watched a lot of reactions to a bunch of rock bands, metal bands and music in general but every time I see a new reaction video from you guys put out I never get past it. I look up to you guys as friends and brothers that get along together as someone I wish I could be more proud of being. Seeing you guys react together and just talk makes me feel more happy than any other day of my life and I thank you for it. I don’t think I could go to another different react channel that I have already seen, also I didn’t like some of the music you dudes were listening to before, but when I listened to your reactions to them I learned to like them more and appreciate different genres of music, nobody else has done that for me so again I just wanna say thank you. Well I’m rambling on but you guys are awesome never forget that, also Kyle whatever you were feeling during those moments or if something ever happened I didn’t know about I just want to say I’m sorry and I hope you are ok things are going to get better. Until then Hi I’m Eric I’m the hip-hop head I’m Kyle I’m the metal head AND WE ARE BROTHERS THAT REACT TO SHIT, SO LET’S DO THAT!!🤣🫵🏻🤘🏻❤️‍🩹🤜🏻🤛🏻🙏🏻🫡

I am seeing them on September 25th here in Denver and I'll be recording some of the show...I have been addicted to your reactions and I LOVE your insights - I've learned things that I didn't know about and appreciate the insights.

you guys perfectly captured how i felt listening to this song for the first time. i never wanted this album to end and its a daily repeat for me. fantastic guys

this song has me crying nearly everytime i listen to it. hands down my favorite song out of any.

Dude I first discovered sleep token when this album dropped, seriously brought a tear to my eye. These guys are on another level entirely

I was so waiting for this reaction! Glad you guys finally did it.

It’s impossible for me to not tear up listening to this one. Such beauty.

This is my favorite reaction channel, your analysis of not only the music but the lyrics makes this such a fun experience for me, please don’t ever stop 💙🤙
