I'm a mom and an addict in recovery. And also the child of a mom who was an addict and wasn't around much for my childhood. This song kills me not only from the kids pov, but also as a mom it's a reminder of why I'm sober and that I will never hurt my kids this way.
Nate’s music is his therapy. It’s always impactful in one way or another, even the bangers! Take the Journey-it’s a certain order that shows you his progression through his music.
Understatement! NFs catalog is one honestly best taken as a journey not just for the best understanding of his metaphors but also bc it helps you prepare for the next hit home that he never misses on!! ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 No lie i grabbed my tissues b4 hitting play
You guessed it G, his name is Nathan. Remember at the end of Let You Down, right before it cuts to black, you here a woman say “Nathan”. That was him as an old man, watching himself make mistakes and go through pains ( I think) 😆. You held it down man. First time I watched this I grabbed a pacifier and a binky, took my cryin ass to bed. NF is always in my all star line-up
If you can get through this song without cutting onions, you must be a psychopath! This song is heart breaking but beautifully written and performed. Nate's music is amazing. I just got to see him live last week and it was a great experience. Looking forward to following your journey into the world of NF ❤️
Wow, you jumped right in the deep end with this song being your next NF track. Given that you went here this early, you should check out HOPE from his latest album to see how he’s evolved. I recommend listening to Mansion first, which doesn’t have a video, whether you react to it or not, before you watch Hope.
I'm/we are crying with you Joe E... together we are crying. All true what he says in the song, her death and all. The crying at the end is pure crying. Told the people in the studio to leave the room, but leave the mic on. This song hits hard, everytime. You're not human if you don't cry to this song. Theres no way you don't cry. No way.
I discovered NF (Nate Feuerstein) I saw someone react to his song Mansion (first label album). He went through a lot of trauma as a child and his albums are his journey of growing, healing and finding hope. He is a very talented artist and has a way of connecting all of his music together which is unique. As both a fan and a person, I am happy to see him reach a point in his recent album called Hope where he knows that fear and past trauma will always be a part of himself that he fights, but he is the one in control now. As a poet myself, his lyrics amaze me and so many of his songs have so much wisdom in them for someone so young (Remember This, Change, Just Like You, Prideful, Nate, Oh Lord….). My husband, our granddaughter and I just went to his concert in July. It was awesome!
Omg. I’m new to NF and this was powerful…so sad. I’m looking forward to going through the NF journey with you, but I’m definitely going to have some tissues close by.❤😢
I love how raw and real good music is. I don't have the same situation as him in this song, but I can feel it through this song. Plus his music and videos are all very cinematic with strings and such you don't get often with others. You should listen to his music in order of album and video releases to get his story. It really is his journey. And helps to explain stuff.
His music is his therapy, if you go back to the beginning, he tells the entire story song after song, how it started, why he is who he is, what he does, its a masterpiece from the start. I love the emotion, his music is very real! your emotional ride will be a rollercoaster. And im sorry for your loss.
Loved your reaction - it helped me appreciate the exposure outside vs inside that I hadn’t considered before 🙏 The eventual follow-up to this is “Mama” but no video. I would LOVE to see you breakdown the cinematography on “Story” though!!!
@Joe E Sparks let me start by saying I love your reactions. I’ve watched all your Ren videos. I’ve been listening to NF for years and just recently went to his Hope Tour concert. I’m here for your NF reactions now too. Ren has become my fav since I discovered him in early 2023 but NF has always been up there. My top 2. I want to give you some guidance, I guess, when it comes to reacting to NF. If you just jump around you won’t get it. Many of his videos are connected and tell a story. There are Easter eggs etc. So, you basically have to go in order from the beginning. There is a playlist on RU-vid the most folks follow it’s called The NF Journey Proper Order. Please please use that playlist and follow along for the NF rabbit hole. You can’t go wrong. I’m so excited to watch you get into this. Let’s goooo!
Brother every video is powerful. Start the journey from the beginning. I’d love to see this journey from your POV. Based on your reactions you’ll very much appreciate his art
Like others have said Nathan is NF. Also the father has been said to be NF as an older man, that he let his younger self down. It is a lyric video but Mansion is very good and in Hope the mansion scenes are revealed. Therapy Session is good, I agree you’ll love Story
Great real, raw reaction! Love it! With your background I think you would love Story, Clouds, Therapy Session, when I grow up, Search, Leave me Alone, Hope, Motto, & Happy. You should also listen to Mama on his new album, so you can see the growth and healing he had since this song came out. Mansion is also a great song to understand his catalog, no video but like you said, he is an incredible story teller.
Appreciate the video reaction. Tough song but its just a very great video and a song that just touches you. I didn;t go thru this with any parent but the song just males you feel his pain.
Songwise a good follow up to this is Mama off of his latest album. No video but it is a follow up to this one and shows how much he's grown. For song and cinematic value The Search followed by Leave Me alone (those 2 go together also)
I can't relate to this song at all, but just listening to the pain in his voice I can only imagine how bad it feels, this is the one and only song I know that will put me in tears every single time I listen to it.
Hes amazing he mentions this song by track in nate a song to gis 6 year old self also he even says in another song i dont know if im making movies or music videos so yes the cinematic is on purpose
I can't seem to enjoy NF I know alot of people are mad on him right now but I've listened to a few of his tracks, he doesn't give me the same excitement and tingles I get when I hear a ren song any ren song. Think the bar has been set for me so I think now if I don't get the same reaction I feel when ren says he's dropping a song then it usually a sign
Great Reaction, Keep em coming, But there's a story under the story, you need to go back to Mansions, there are so many easter eggs relating to previous songs, shame to miss them, It's like watching Violet's tale first, just in a wider scope (A Pun!)
LOVE the reaction!! TOTALLLY!!! :) ♥ :) ♥ “Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” ~ Romans 15:13
