“Crashed my car just the feel again” line cuts deep into my soul every time I hear it

@richdavis9789 2 года назад

I've heard this song probably close to 1000 times, no exaggeration, and I've never picked up on that lyric until watching this reaction... it does cut deep!

@annaanselmo7968 2 года назад

I felt that way for months after I lost my mom, I just felt sooo numb, just going through the motions and my driving became very erratic. This has become my therapy song when I'm too far deep in my head, it reminds me that I'm not alone what I'm going through and to never let my mind go THAT WAY AGAIN!!!!!

By the way the little girl in the video is his daughter, Willow. She appears in some of his other music videos as well (especially in the "Trilogy" which consists of: "Losing my mind", "Losing my life", and "Drugs"). I saw them in concert right before COVID (2/14/20), right before Derek Jones (the guitarist) passed away. One of my all time favorite bands.

I am a war veteran that survived suicide twice, when he says his demons simultaneous rage trust me, I feel that statement to my core. Ronnie has opened another lifeline too many to know they are not alone. I've dealt with doctors that should never try to treat war vets by the book psychology. When my demons rage, I first pick up a Stephen King book to take me away from where I'm at or what I'm going through. When I'm done reading it time for music.

There are 4 stages to this song... 1) seeking help (recognizing problem)(1st verse).. 2) not getting proper treatment (lack of care or acknowledgment)(2nd verse)... 3) results of non treatment (beast mode)(3rd verse).... and 4th stage, finding the calm to bring him back down to reality!

@VerucaSalt70 2 года назад

Whether through visual or audio clues, you did get the meaning of the song...struggling with mental health issues/addictions, trying to seek out help without luck, finally going ballistic on everyone around you, but finding something/someone to live & change for to continue moving forward in life.

@KrisThroughGlass 2 года назад

Great reaction! Ronnie Radke, the singer, practically IS the band and the creative head behind music and visuals. The video is not related to a video game, but Ronnie is a gamer on twitch, so I guess he took some inspiration from it. Ronnie suffers from depression, panic attacks, PTSD (after being in prison while different face groups there were at least with each other and someone was stabbed right beside him) and anger issues. The chorus is about the media painting him as a liar, cheater, etc, backing him in a corner until he snaps and gives them the monster they suspected him to be all along. Ronnie does some serious soul stripping in most of his songs and isn't afraid to talk about his weaknesses and mistakes. He's worked hard to become a better person after growing up in a broken family and being a drug addict at some point. I think you'll like the trilogy Losing My Mind, Losing My Life and Drugs. Maybe have the lyrics at hand, so you don't miss too much. Subbed! Greetings from Germany

@TheTimelyTurtle 2 года назад

@@KrisThroughGlass I believe that you are very well on point here. I was looking through the comments to see if anybody mentions the things that you did. The only thing that you might have missed there is the meaning of his daughter. He really loves her and cares about her a great bit (I have never heard him say it explicitly, but you can just see that in everything he does). I think that this video very nicely shows what she means to him - a shining light, a force in his life that brings him back from the darkness. Something that makes him strive to be a better person. And makes him sad when he fails to be. But as you have mentioned, I also believe that he has made great progress in his life and eventually, through those struggles, he always moves a bit closer to becoming the person he wants to be. „Even a fall on your face is a movement forward.“

@LiveTheDream24 2 года назад

This song cuts deep. Ronnie is a recovering heroin addict and he writes about his demons often (some of his best material if i may say so myself) Especially as someone that has those same demons I really feel his music. This song is all about that monster that still very much lives there below the surface (like i think with most heroin addicts, it never really "goes away" more like "goes dormant") There is a couple lines that give me chills every time: "Every single fuckin day I get closer to the grave, I am terrified. I fell asleep at the wheel again, crashed my car just to feel again" all circling back to the self destructive nature of addiction and then the "nothingness" after getting clean as a result of screwing up our brain chemistry so bad. I'm convinced Ronnie is a musical genius, in the way he expresses himself, the melodies he writes, and the themes he touches on. Massively underrated/underappreciated talent.

@joeyblock2153 2 года назад

His daughter, Willow, is his way out. Hence her at the door with the light behind. Ronnie us unbelievably great at everything he does with music. Also the amount of time he spends just interacting with fans online..you can't fake the type of person you are, doing what he does with fans like that. No matter his past, he's a great dude. Huge fan of his and his band. Great reaction video.

Yes I’ve been waiting for falling in reverse. Use to listen to them back in 2012 2013. Ronnie was a different person back then. All of his music videos are like MOVIES. His genre of music is all over the place. Some songs have that hard metal. then it switches to quick rap verse and has techno beat he really is in his own lane and I respect how he got through his past with the drugs and alcohol abuse and became a great father to his kid

@acegamer5082 2 года назад

@carthuscrass2343 2 года назад

I've always interpreted Ronnie's character in this as having some kind of dissociative illness, possibly with hallucinations. All the people he sees out on the street have glowing eyes, showing that he sees other people as monsters. When he changes into a monster himself, that's his other persona taking over, doing things so he doesn't have to, hurting everyone around him as a defense mechanism if you would. A song I think would interest you a lot is Family by Badflower. It's one of the closest descriptions of my own depression symptoms that I've ever heard. I play it when I need to feel like I'm not alone.

The monster is a physical manifestation of the mental health issues he struggles with every day. The glowing eyes of the other people he sees is to show that this monster is not his alone. It is a monster that exists in many of us. A popular monster, one would say. Ronnie is an incredible musician with a story I believe you may find interesting. Definitely check out the Trilogy that has already been mentioned, as well as the songs of his that he chose to redo. Make sure to watch both versions of each - The Drug in Me is You/The Drug in Me is Reimagined and I'm Not a Vampire/I'm Not a Vampire Revamped. Zombified is his most recent gift to the world and is incredible as well. Coming Home is beautiful, so is Superhero. Just Like You is fun. All of the music is relatable in one way or the other. Ronnie drops his heart in his music and makes you feel everything. Listening to Losing My Life (song 2 of the trilogy) is emotionally exhausting and worth every second.

@fallxnangxl8639 2 года назад

My own personal interpretation of both the lyrics and the video itself: he's struggling with PTSD, depression and other mental illness. These illnesses are like demons inside him. When said "demons" take over, destruction follows in his wake. Him transforming into a werewolf is symbolism for those mental illnesses, making him lash out at the people around him. This song hits very close to home for me, because I can relate to every single aspect of it, from struggling with those mental illnesses to them making me lash out at the people around me and those that are closest to me.

@shadowproductions969 Год назад

a few of the key things about this.. he did some bad things in his past and went to prison over it. Some people still judge him in that and call him a monster in a lot of ways, he's a liar, a cheater and a non believer.. but he's famous so he's a popular monster. A lot of the song is about his mental health and feeling like nothing is helping and everyone is out to get him.. which is symbolized in everyone chasing him and even his psychologist calling on him.. the all gang up on him and force him to be the monster they claim him to be... his daughter is also his anchor to being good and she pulls him back from becoming the monster everyone makes him out to be. This is definitely one of my fave songs of theirs.

@marycates8071 2 года назад

My take on this song, from the stand point of a DV and SA survivor, is that the "Popular Monster" is the mental illness that so many of us don't deal with because in his version of the story, his therapist just says "Hey, It's just a phase you're going through and it will pass". When he knows that it's NOT just a phase, it's NOT normal, not everyone goes through this, and he's pleading for answers and the help he needs to wake up each day and fight off the feeling that this is a never ending war between his good side and bad side in his mind! At least that's what I interpret. Im not a Dr, just a 51 yr old who has had hard times, as MANY, MANY, MANY of us have had! Thank you for your react videos! Is nice to see a Dr without his head in a book of explanations. A Dr that hears the voice and says "I'm here, I'm listening, and you don't have to do this alone! Im gonna get in your head with you and help you find the right path to follow and we aren't going to mask the issue with drugs, we're going to squash the issue and HEAL the cause..

Love reaction videos like this! This song has resonated with me from the first time I heard it. I have battled depression my entire life, and during my youth it was more challenging because of the lack of support that I had. People in my life would say, "You don't go to Church, that's why you're sad" or "Oh, it can't be as bad as all that" or "Other people have it worse than you do." These comments basically made me feel like my depression was MY FAULT. And that's what I get from that line. "I'm a liar, I'm a cheater, I'm a non-believer, I'm a popular monster." I have all the reasons that people can "pin" my depression on without ever trying to help. Luckily, I did find the right treatment with the appropriate doctors that helped me. Depression is a life long disease, and the battle is real. Thank you for channels like this that help expose Mental Illness and make it a conversation worth having around artwork. Kudos!

@sam-spooniesoaps-8382 2 года назад

So glad you’re finally doing FIR. This song and video aren’t attached to any movie, tv show or game. The little girl is his daughter Willow who he has said is responsible for motivating him to get clean, sober and stay out of jail. She’s in a few of his other videos too. His other songs and videos are equally thought provoking and cinematic. The videos also tend to add even more nuance to the lyrics. For instance Popular Monster is about mental illness, but how we’re also our own worst enemy. Kinda like how if we were to tell our own life’s story we tend to paint ourselves as the villain in it. I hope you do some of his other music because I’m sure you’ll enjoy them as well.

This song speaks to me so much as a sufferer of CPTSD. This is how it feels inside and outside but the part with his daughter is how i feel about my son. Inside is so dark but no one sees it and my son is why I chose to get help along with just being tired and not being able to help myself anymore. I did all i could do when i developed cptsd and had no one but thanks to God, EMDR, Brainspotting and great therapist I am doing so much better yet I still have a ways to go. Anyome doing or thinking about doing emdr or brainspotting just know that is truly is challenging and takes a lot of determination. It helps but is so draining and sucks but SO WORTH IT!

@godiam502 2 года назад

@@mariamerigold may I give you some advice, that you can discard if you like, it's just what has helped me - I'm a veteran of CPTSD and associated mental health issues. I've done all the psychotherapy there is to do. The only thing that has 'cured' or properly controls it all for me is either a fully carnivorous or ketogenic diet, and daily short burst of very intense exercise. It has changed my life. Hopefully the EMDR will work for you guys, but it simply didn't for me. The main reason is that the trauma that precipitates the CPTSD causes structural changes to the brain (left pre-frontal cortex, lining of the amygdala, etc, but it's really only what I described above that can fix that. The side effects are: improved body composition/weighloss, better hormonal control, healthier hair and nails, reversal of autoimmune diseases, reduced blood pressure, reversal of type 2 diabetes, clearer skin, longevity and looking younger. Prolonged water fasting will do the same thing, but make sure you supplement with enough sodium, potassium and magnesium. Another thing that can help is supplemental Magnesium Glycinate (not other forms of Magnesium), specifically glycinate as glycine plays a big role on neurotransmission control. Sorry for the long post.

So you probably have had other comments of this but the little girl in the video is HIS ACTUAL DAUGHTER Willow. She's his everything and he has mentioned that his daughter has saved him in life and he is always incorporating her into his music.

I have to say, you remind me so much of my previous DBT therapist. Watching this video brings me so much joy because I love the song on a personal level, and because my therapist was one of my favourite people in the world so seeing you rock out to one of my favourite bands makes me imagine him doing the same, that makes me so happy :') I loved hearing you appreciating the mental health side of this song!

Him transforming into the werewolf is basically symbolic to how I take it for when I get that way that we trust someone to help us and be there, but in the end we are left betrayed and hurt. So only thing left is the inner rage to come out or quote on quote monster. This symbolizes it perfectly.

@thisistheescapeplan 2 года назад

It really does look like it should be from a video game... but that's just how much work ronnie puts into literally everything. He wants his videos, especially nowadays, to be as top notch as he can afford so he can put the kind of message he wants to convey. Got a lot of respect for him in that department. Also his brutal honesty. do a lot more falling in reverse... Ronnie's story is a REALLY interesting evolution

I don’t really go around talking about this but I used to have MAJOR depression. My dad died, I had really bad seizures, was harassed at school by kids and teachers, and I’m 50% blind. For my 18th birthday all I wanted was to meet Ronnie because he brought me out of that hole and I got to go to a show and meet him 4 days before my birthday. When I was talking to him I felt like he genuinely cared. At the end of the concert he dedicated this song to me and talking to him alone was incredible but when he did that I almost passed out lol.

I think you did a really good job at breaking the song down into it's core message and meaning, as someone who suffers with depression, and has suicidal thoughts and tendencies, songs like this really hit home for me, they mean a lot and they really help me get through my darkest moments.

I think of this and 'the Trilogy' as his 'John Carpenter' series. The sources are in the movies of the 80s, in many ways - I assume he grew up watching them on late night TV.

I definitely get it. Especially 'crash my care just to feel again" also "falling in love with falling apart" I have Pychosis and I very much understand waking up from it and seeing all the destruction I have caused. I am fortunate, though, to have my son who keeps me fighting for life and from just giving up due to the exhaustion and regrets.

@ronjohnson378 2 года назад

I understand this video so much I feel exactly like this in my life. We become something that our environment makes us but we don’t like it . It comes from a dark place but we know the light is inside somewhere and no one seems to care or help us. We have to struggle to fight our way out. I feel that the little girl and the light ( his daughter) is a sign of hope in the darkness of it all. A symbol of transformation. I was the same I didn’t have feelings for anyone or anything until my children taught me how to love. Even though, we remain holding close and embracing our dark side. The struggle teaches us how to respect and appreciate the good with the bad, the balance.

@mazikeentravanti3109 2 года назад

First of all love the review!! I'm almost a psychotherapist myself and was just as interested in the backgrounds of these stories so definitely cool to see your review. Dunno if someone already mentioned it but Ronnie also often streams on twitch and answers alot questions from fans about his life and music. Lots of those stream sessions are also on RU-vid. It will definitely help you understand the music and videos better. He also wrote a book by the way :). Very interesting and just amazing music! Ronnie is so creative and talented. Would love to see you review more of his video's.

Whoa, never heard of Falling in Reverse before. This is just what I need today. My depression is terrible right now and I’ve been raging (internally, mostly) all day. Music like this, that put into words what I’m feeling, is good company. Thanks for reacting to this! Will check out their music. PS. If you like the rap and metal combo, I suggest reacting to Scarlxrd’s music. His song Heart Attack is a good place to start.

Ronnie Radke (lead singer) is a genius. He has had a rough life. His mother was pretty terrible. He was in some trouble and violated probation, went to prison for 2 1/2 years, got kicked out of the band he formed Escape the Fate, he formed Falling in Reverse while he was still in prison and wrote a lot of his music there. He does suffer with depression. He has really turned his life around. He credits his daughter Willow for helping him get his life straight. She calms him. He quit doing drugs and drinking. He works out quite a a lot. He is even a better artist now I believe. I would like you to check out: I'm not a vampire/I'm not a vampire revamped. Also: Drug in me is you/The Drug in me reimagined One was from 10 years ago. Revamped and Reimagined recently were done as a thank you to his fans that have stuck with him. The songs have the same lyrics but completely different. His growth between the two is amazing. Thank you for your reaction!

Found these guys about a week and a half ago by chance from Alexa playing songs like FFDP. And, I listen to a lot of music pertaining to mental health because I struggle. A lot. I've got the Stonesour, Linkin Park, FFDP, and many others that eventually get to me once I listen to them more and more. But, this one, holy shit. Massive gut punch right from the start. Never had a song hit me like that the first time. Or even the 5th time. And, I've been listening to this one almost nonstop since then. Music is 100% my therapy. Mimicking the singers of the songs helps me get it out. And, I feel a ton better afterwards. I'm trying to master this one as I listen to it. Just now after about 50 play throughs, getting to where I can listen to it without tearing up. I've got the trauma from awful therapists all my life. I was about 5 seconds from taking my car into an upright under a highway bridge at 150mph to make it stop. Only to think of my little ones I'd be leaving to bring me back. He's literally scream FOR me. And, I've had a few songs do that for me like "Given Up" and "Across The Line" by Linkin Park or "Remember Everything" by FFDP. But, it took time and thought. This one took none of that. Had to pause it twice the first time just to absorb it. And, I didn't have the video then. I thought there were at least 2 if not 3 guys singing this song. Ronnie is a GD beast of a singer. And, instantly made a fan out of me.

You might like older Julien Baker songs to react to!!! Her first 2 albums have a TON of songs I think you’d enjoy (Blacktop, Good News, Everybody Does, Go Home on her first; Appointments, Sour Breath, Televangelist, Claws In Your Back on her second album). My therapist actually introduced me to her bc he and I have similar music tastes and he knew I absolutely love incredibly dark depressing music lol. She sings a LOT about mental illness, addiction, toxic relationships, and her faith. Her music is truly beautiful and incredibly relatable to me as someone who survived heroin addiction and has (so far) survived chronic serious mental illness.

@justinjohnson8980 Год назад

man i love your reactions i 100% would have a guy like you as a therapist. this song was fantastic the girl is his real life daughter willow and she is credited the most for pulling him out of his depression so the symbolism behind her being there with him at the end after hes been a monster for so long and simply touching him showing him human contact amongst a room full of corpses and then opening the door to the light was one of the best metaphors for becoming a parent I've ever seen

requested this song after the first reaction i saw from you - so glad you did this. Ronnie is a great artist who puts himself in his music. He was in prison in the early 2000s and formed FIR while he was there. His childhood was hard, with drug attict parents an a mother who left when he was still a toddler. His older brother who he always looked up to died few years ago. both brothers struggled with drugs too. The girl in the video is Ronnies daughter, she make him turn and try to be a better man, cause he is afraid his story could repeat with her if he doesnt.

@philm3158 2 года назад

From what I remember reading in an interview is that it's about someone actually suffering from depression, ptsd, etc and it's seen as a phase because unfortunately in todays world some mental disorders are seen as a personality trait that makes you unique, quirky, etc. So when you go and seek help you're being told it's just a phase, something you'll get over, and you're left to deal with it on your own to the point where you snap and are seen as the bad guy because of this underlying health issue that everyone ignores because it's become more of a fad amongst other people who say they have it in order to make themselves seem special. As someone who's survived a couple suicide attempts, you can really see who's hurting and who's using mental disorder to gain clout for themselves.

Ive lived this song and continue to to this day. my Favourite line in the song that it seemed you didnt catch is "Is another second closer to a blessing I wont take" indicating that every fibre of his being tells him to unalive himself but he fights against that drive and knows that he wont. and the second time he mentions it "every single fucking day I get closer to the grave" indicates that hes struggling and doesnt know how much longer he can fight the urge... i feel these lyrics so much. this is also just a great song...

Ronnie himself explained the story behind the song. It's what happens when the public and the media turn on you. Yes he has had his own personal demons: drug addiction, going to prison and everything that happened to him in prison, his band that he created kicking him out. He had to crawl back through hell to get where he is and the media still called him a monster. This is what happens when he gets pushed into a corner and becomes the thing that they said he was. And the little girl at the end is his real daughter Willow. She is his saving grace, his one lifeline that will always be there.... NO MATTER WHAT!!!!
