I WAS IN THE CROWD! They asked us to help them film a music video. And all stand real still. And then when the beat drops, go wild! It was incredible! That whole concert was so cool. They had scaffolding everywhere that Tyler was climbing around on.
My dudes. TØP played at my high school battle of the bands in 2011 and I've been a massive fan ever since. I've been to almost every single Columbus/Ohio show since. Car Radio was filmed at the LC Pavilion inside. I was all the way in the back, unfortunately. But this was one of the best experiences I've ever had and I'm honored to that I was able to be there. You can all choose to believe me or not. But you assholes won't take that away from me. Sorry, frens. |-/
Man for some reason as many times as I’ve listened to this song that line has never clicked for me idk why so thank u for pointing that line out I got goosebumps reading that.
The whole song is about suicide. Tyler always been open about his mental health, when I first watched this reaction I was like you really think he’s shaving his head and sad bc his radios gone dude?! 😂 but LayedBak caught on. He gets it.
I was at this concert and it was freaking nuts! Best concert I’ve ever been too! It’s very cool to see this band from my hometown be one of the most well known bands in the world. Glad you reacted to video! Keep it up man 🤙🏻
The Song is actually based on a true story, Tyler (the singer) had his car radio stolen I college and he released how many bad thoughts came to his mind which really scared him... Edit: thanks for all the likes guys, my old "record" is about 8 likes. Have a great day everybody!
He doesnt actually mean his car radio is gone its more talking about how when you get stuck with yourself no music no distractions and sometimes your mind can be a scary place
@Cian Redmond both can be true though, his radio actually got stolen and he was forced to deal with his mental ill health -but it’s also symbolic for overcoming what weighs us down. Both are true
I WAS THERE!! This song was always the most emotional experience. You really do feel the oneness of the crowd for this song. The aisle opening and the hand slam were normal for this song anywhere they played it everytime. So basically they told us they wanted to do something special this time. They played up to that portion in the song normally. Then he told us for the aisle this time, not move or smile or make a sound till the beat drop. Then to go crazier than ever before and surf him to the stage. It was amazing. I was up front in front of the singers piano so im too far too the side to see, but man, I will never forget this night. They used to stay in the lobby after to meet people and this same night, the singer recognized me from my cover of one of their songs on youtube. I was so happy!
@@xmanmartinez00 oh believe me I used to sit and pause and play over and over to try to get a good view of myself.. hahahaha The only places you can really see my head is at 3:00 when we all jump towards the middle. You can see my half blonde half brown bun ponytail towards the front hoppin around hahahaha. Bottom right corner of the frame. I was behind a dude in a white hat and red shirt. You can see a clearer view of where I was standing if you pause at 2:46. you can kiiiiinda see my hair behind that dude and the dude in the yellow next to him. but there's never a spot where you can see my face.
@@xmanmartinez00 you have to go to the original full music video and go to those time stamps. you can't see it in this review, sorry forgot to say that.
He's not cutting his hair because he has no car radio, but because of the thoughts your left alone with in the silence. I started typing this and 10 seconds later you said it. Twenty One Pilots and System of a Down are my top bands of all time. Thanks for the reactions to both.
Bro, I remember when I only knew a few hit songs from TOP, but their non radio songs and least popular b-sides are the best music on the planet. Just sayin.
One thing to know about TOP is they're more than just music. More than just a band. They make people feel like there are thousands of other people on their side, and just wanting you to be ok. Every song has a meaning and deep feeling behind it. They are Twenty one pilots, and so are we. I suggest reviewing Migraine. It's my favorite right now.
Dont discuss them bangers bro yall just like them because the just now got brought up bro ive been around these parts for 4 or more years but we welcome u to the clique
Paul Butz Yes it's 3 songs in 1 and the lyrics are so deep!! I love the change up from dark and ominous to light. It tells an amazing story. Sorry I saw your comment and I never comment either but had to lol.
I just responded to someone else's post.....if he thought NF's When I Grow Up video was inspiring with the crowd transformation....he has no clue what he's in store for with this....
I've watched a couple reactions to this song, and I dunno if it just gets missed or if the reactor doesn't find any merit in addressing it but he says "There is no distraction to mask what is real... I could pull the steering wheel." It's a contemplation of suicide that could be something he thinks/thought about often while driving in silence. All these invasive thoughts and one of the most prevalent is that it would be so easy to just... Jerk the wheel one way or another and stop all those thoughts for good, radio or no radio. Instead he chooses to keep going, a message I feel that many people could bear to hear at least once if not more. Though he did end up with a breakdown(shaving his head), he didn't go through with suicide. We all fall. What's important is that you can get back up, and if you can't you can always ask for help.
5:30 I was actually in the crowd and was wearing a white head cover also. It was an awesome experience. Didn’t get paid much but being there and immortalized in a music video was well worth it. We also arranged this though a FB page to answer your question.
This song is a really good depiction of having depression and being forced to be alone with your thoughts. I really like that the lyrics keep going back to him in “real time” directly addressing that he’s driving this car with no music and nothing to pull him out of his mind. It’s a really powerful song and probably, in my opinion, the best track they’ve ever done. You nailed the analysis my dude.
This song has no chorus. It details the true story when Tyler Joseph was late for a class in college and forgot to lock his car door. When he returned he found that thieves had stolen his GPS, radio and CD’s. At the time, Joseph couldn’t afford to replace anything that was taken. In an interview with Rock Sound, he said: “When I get in the car my first reaction is to put the radio on and for a while I wasn’t able to do that and finding out that once I removed that piece of me I realized that sometimes music can act as a distraction and can get in the way of where your mind wants to go.”
Hearing you say “ hearing this is inspiring because one day this could be you” it’s also majorly inspiring because this song has saved people from death, this song has helped people battle their fears and that alone makes it one of the greatest songs alive.
It’s always fun to watch/listen to people react to this song and hear their perspective: Is he talking about an actual car radio? That’s gone, and leaves you to deal with the thoughts in your head. No distractions, just yourself, and the things you think about.. *OR* is the “car radio” your confidence, or some other inner characteristic? Did someone make you feel less than? Did they say something to you that made you feel like an outcast? If they did, then now you sit in silence. You don’t want to talk to people, and you don’t want anyone to talk to you. Everyone now becomes someone that we’re scared will judge us. We think we’re great at hiding these feelings, but we’re not. As soon as someone tears us down, our pride **IS** no longer inside. We wear it on our sleeve, exposed to every possible danger imaginable. We become vulnerable to everything. We fear being alone with our thoughts in both instances, yet we grow to dislike people because we have been exposed to how rude and dangerous they can be for our own mental and physical health. So we maintain a safe distance. Staying away from people and avoiding conflict...but that leaves us alone in our thoughts again. The cycle always continues.
I like your analysis, but I would not focus on the car radio being an analogy. Tyler Joseph has said in multiple interviews that his car radio was literally stolen and these are the thoughts he had. I would encourage you to really focus on the lyrics, because that is where the meaning is.
This is very deep and I really like this. I'm pretty sure that his car radio was actually stolen, as Tyler Hernandez said, but I still really like where you went with this. It really made me think and just sit in silence and think for a while. Thanks
My dawg this train gunna be way bigger than NFs. I said it on his first reaction. Theres a reason they won a Grammy for most dedicated fan base. The boys will sky rocket this channel bruh
Whoever have not seen 21 pilots live you must! It’s a must! I’ve been to about 50 concerts from metal, country, hip hop, classic rock and they were the best concert I’ve ever been to and not by a lil bit by far! They’re incredible!
5:54 Doing this part at their concerts is pretty fucking amazing because everyone wants to participate. Last time we all sat down and then jumped up and everything went crazy
Yoo if you want a deep track from Twenty one Pilots you should react to Neon Gravestones or If you want a more chill joint you can react to Nico And The Niners.
It's so much more than just not having a radio. It's depression and suicidal thoughts taking over your brain, the frustration of not having something to help you cope. An extremely poetic and meaningful song, by far. It got me through hard times
Erik Clowdis Right. My favorite part of the song is “...and the window sill looks really nice, right? You think twice about your life it probably happens at night, right? Fight it take the pain ignite it.”
Sometimes quite is violence... that line... hits to close to home... when im alone with my thoughts i cant turn them off... i cant stop my mind from thinkin... it hurts... it feels wrong these thoughts that come and go... i really get it...
@@fortheworkforceDROWNING no idea what the RAB days are lol Levitate is such a weak song compared to the rest of the Album. It's a great Album, but Levitate has weak lyrics and the sound is not good. When he said "If I flow on a song I'll get no radio play" he was referencing this future song specifically. Also Nico and the Niners is Trash and Cut My Lip is the best song on the Album. You dont have to like it, but it's true
So happy you’re listening to my anthem. This, the song means so much to me because this was the song I listened to when I wanted to kill myself for the 4th time. I blasted this every single day because I knew I wasn’t alone, this dude saved me. This was my “hype” music that got me through every day and eventually encouraged me to get the help I needed.
Hey don’t know ya, but wanted to let you know there’s people that love ya. And if y’all ever need a ear to tel y’all problems too, Im here to listen. Stay bless and hope you’re doing a lot better.
Love your appreciation for different genres of music. Your reaction to the pure emotions of music are beautiful! I appreciate you and your channel so much!
This song hits super hard. I have a fear of silence. I can get panic attacks so I constantly have to have some white noise around me. That music or podcasts because I get stuck in my own head if I don`t.
He means that the silence is making him confront his issues. The music was a distraction and now that it's gone he's just thinking... I can relate. When I was 17 I had blew out my speakers and I had to drive alone in my jeep for about 3hrs a day and I didnt have a good home life by any means. I had been suicidal for a long time and the silence would make me scream and cry. I finally stole one of the skull candy ear budz from Wal-Mart by the check out so on the ride to and from MTI everyday I could blast eminem the whole ride... Pretty sure he's the reason I didnt yank the wheel. I always looked forward to the ride after that...
You are going to see your numbers climb. 21 Pilot fans are obsessive (understandably). I saw them last year (went to 28 concerts) and they were simply amazing. I felt a million years old as I am not their demographic, but I'd see them again in a heartbeat.
bro, i just stumbled onto your channel today, twenty on pilots is one of my favorite bands, tyler is SO creative, and watching your reaction to his music gave me goosebumps!!! keep it up bruh!! subscribed!!
Hey man, just gotta say I love that you branch out and listen tti everything and I really enjoy the sincerity with which you watch these videos. Keep up the good work!
Bruh, this is my first time seeing your videos. I was literally just listening to Twenty One Pilots and this video was suggested. I love the way you reacted to it. It was very genuine. I'm now subscribed to you. You definitely spark some light to the Reaction community. I believe in this channel.
Oh my God, I love your reaction to this video. I've watched a few of your others, but YES, this is exactly how I feel every time I hear this song and watch their Car Radio video and watch them perform. They're a whole 'nother level. Insane.
Tyler ( the singer for twenty one pilots) had depression as a teenager and music was one of the main things that helped him through it and this is a main thing that helped him out
Hoogs55 That song is so amazing. Like something about “Can you save my heavy dirty soul for me?” makes you really think. Like it always reminds me that I always try and let other people solve my problems, instead of solving my own.
I’m rewatching your old videos, and you’ve been a huge reason that helped me realize how HUGE and completely diverse Twenty One Pilot’s listeners/fan base are. I remember going to a twenty one pilots concert and seeing so many people of different races, completely different age groups, etc... and they were all huge fans no matter the diversity in age, race, or just the music the regularly listen to, everyone at the twenty one pilots concert were so vastly different but the one thing we all shared was our love for their music, and that was so fascinating. Blacks, whites, Asians, Latinos, older people, young people, college students, construction workers, doctors, etc... their crowd is SO diverse and it’s the most amazing thing ever. Almost no one in their crowds can fit into one specific category besides the fact they all share a huge love for Twenty One Pilots. Their listeners/fan base is so diverse and I know I already said that, but it’s just so truly amazing and beautiful to aee
Not even gonna lie Twenty One Pilots concerts are next level. I have literally never experienced anything remotely similar to them and I've been to dozens of concerts. Somehow they make you feel safe in a crowd of thousands of people and people will literally camp out for days just to get barricade. It's wild.
Hey man, great reaction. This video shows the rapport between artist and fans, where artist asks their fans to stand still and they will do it because they love these guys so much. All their songs have so much meaning in the lyrics.
I love the way the song is so deep talking about depression and suicidal thoughts but musically it gives you so much energy at the end it makes you feel like you can cope with anything, you literally feel like you take off!!
Not only is this song musically fire, but the lyrics hit hard and go deep. The video is perfect for this song. TOP are sooo good! I don't even know what to recommend next!! Anything!
Dude, this is one of my favorite songs from them. Such a good message and the instrumental is unbelievable. Wow I still come back to hear it and it’s still great.
Love and Respect friend and I'm so thankful you reacted to this track as well. Such a deep and meaningful artistic choice for them. The song has such roots in how people are feeling these days about how having some sort of sensory input is necessary to keep from thinking about or having to deal with "what is real". I know after I got injured, after leaving the military, not being able to move or walk or pick up my young son or just do normal dad things with him and watching him grow up having to deal with that, along with the shit his mom has put him through (multiple marriages/divorces, four elementary schools before the end of 2nd grade) etc. He has some of the toughest skin and has put up with more bull shit and drama/trauma/emotional abuse than 95% of people put up with their entire lives and he's only 10 years old. Get this, he still manages to get fucking straight A's and is so damn smart and kind and empathetic/sympathetic...he has his ups and downs like everyone else but the both of us have very very very low lows because of what we've had to do the past 5 years now. However, I got a lawyer, got 50/50 custody (ex wife emptied my bank account and changed locks the week after I came home from military and sued me for custody with my own severance money) and now she can't do anything with my permission or approval and I refuse to move him from this school district or let her move from the home she's in now (unless she moves within our school district which is fine...she doesn't even live in this district now). I digress, once again, you have found a soft spot for me with this band and this song was one of the first tracks my son listened to on his own and broke it down in his own mind and took what he learned applying it to his own world/life and it was a beautiful thing to watch. #WorldPeace and #Respecttoall
