Twenty One Pilots - Shy Away (Official Video) REACTION 

I'm absolutely living for Tyler angrily adjusting his coat towards the end like, "Imma encourage the shit out of you."

6:01 "3 lights are lit but the 4th one's out"

My first response was. How does this sound NOTHING like them but also EXACTLY like them 😂

Don’t hate on Tyler’s space buns, they are adorable.

Can we also mention how Tyler rocks the electric guitar in this song...considering he just literally learned how to play it this past year!!!! #phenomenaltalent!!

tyler's buns are a call to his one year old daughter, rosie. the buns are for her, kinda showing that she has a part in the video. i think it's adorable :)

The first thing I noticed is how his mask has more holes within it, showing us that he is getting more confident and comfortable with who he is as a person.

I love how confident and self-possessed Tyler has evolved to be. He’s now able to tell the listener how to avoid the fall into the same doubt that he went through as a new artist. And now, he and Josh are just having fun, and it’s a joy to watch. He’s even having fun with his hair, it’s almost like he said I know everyone’s going to obsess over my hair and I don’t even care, I like it and I’m having fun! Love this confident positivity. I know there will be other things on the record that tie back into the Dema story more, but this is such a hot first single!

I love the retro vibe, I love Tyler’s hair, I love the new merch! It looks like a new fun era.

He said in an interview yesterday that his brother wants to get into music more and wanted Tyler to show him how to do a song from beginning to end - so Tyler just sat down with him and made this track and showed him how to do it - crazy (but as you noted this song is meant to tell anyone not to shy away when they're trying to reach a goal and will probably take on a double meaning as the album develops) The logo is the Greek letter for Psi which means something like the psyche of your mind - it also could be spelled Sai, which is a weapon that looks the exact same way (what Raphael used), also SAI = Scaled and Icy Also I think the hair thing is something he did for his daughter because she always has her hair like that - although part of me thinks his hair is this long for the album and it will end up being cut in a song like he did in Car Radio and Levitate The real question is what the hell is going on in the background of the video? Who is he talking to on the phone? What exactly does the dragon represent? Why does everything crumble to the ground at the end? Why are all these parts floating around in the background? Is this a different part of Dema? I think we will get these answers soon and everything will make more sense and all tie together i agree with you i think this album is going to have more of a positive vibe to it Heads up it sounds like they're dropping clues for a second single coming out Friday- never know with them though

This song was written for Tyler’s brother Zak who wants to make music, Tyler mentioned the meaning in an interview recently.

I feel oddly weird about this song and absolutely love it at the same time.

We stan the spacebuns😤

People are calling his new dance moves 'shy twerking'! The music video gives me Stranger Things vibes when they're in the parking lot.

yess! can't express how hyped I am for this new album lmfao I've been following the reddit for TØP's lore, and some that I can catch is that the website for Dema (dmaorg) which contain Clancy's (Tyler) notes has been terminated and saying that 'Clancy is dead', which is an anagram for the new album title 'Scaled and Icy'. And also the new logo is a Greek letter for Psi, which is pronounced 'SAI' (initial for the new album). Also the blue colour theme, I'm pretty sure the band or Tyler once posted on twitter saying something along the lines of "never wear blue, it's the sign of surrender." So yeah, pretty sure there's a lot of story behind this music video that we still don't know about.

I love Tyler's little bunns AND his long hair!

"Penguin Shuffle🐧" 😂😂

The new logo is actually a weapon called SAI = Scaled And Icy. I also thought it was a trident at first. Great reaction man!

I am so glad T0P is back, and even more glad you are back doing their rections!

The trident is sai. Sai stands for scaled and icy which is the name of the new album and also it is an anagram for clancy is dead

THEY'RE BACK!

I listened to this song on my way to rehab and it just broke me down but also gave me hope. I sang it in my head for the 4 days I was in detox. Apparently it’s about him talking to his brother about writing music but that’s the beauty of them, it can be interpreted in so many ways 💛🔱💙

Wooohooo! Was waiting for your reaction 😁 This song is such a banger!! Hopefully I'm not being too redundant, but here's a little rundown on what we know so far, as far as the story is concerned. We know that "Scaled and Icy" is an anagram for "Clancy is Dead." The promo image for "Christmas Saves the Year" had a hidden message of "SAI is propaganda." The promotional material for Scaled and Icy also has hints and messages that tell us the album is a product of Dema, not Tyler and Josh. We aren't quite sure what that means exactly. You can see at the beginning of the video that Tyler seems to be acknowledging someone over to his right and looks kind of nervous and uncertain. That's because Tyler and Josh are in Dema. The main thought right now is that Tyler with long hair means he's under control of the bishops, and the "man buns" mean he is not. Something else to notice, Tyler has his neck covered completely or wears a choker. That will likely be our indicator of blurryface from now on. There's a lot of theorizing going on in the discord server about Josh with the yellow drumsticks and the yellow on the drum head. Some people think Josh isn't visible to the bishops, because of the yellow, or he isn't even in dema at all bc maybe he's just been in Tyler's head this entire time. Aaaannd, the jury is still out on the dragon. We aren't sure if he's good or bad. Tyler did mention on Twitter today that his name is "Trash" 🤣

I’ve missed your TØP reactions! I liked your take on the song. Can you believe that they are finally dropping their new album? Feels like it’s been forever! Pretty sure that Shy Away is already my most played song on Spotify and it’s making me even more excited to hear the rest. Also, I really feel like there’s a second album with true TØP material. SAI only has 11 tracks, so it’s possible. 😁

I think you are dead on about where the boys are coming from now, you will relate totally I think also being a new dad & how that changed your outlook & perspective. I do believe if you had a little girl instead that you would rock the double hair buns for her to!😆😆

so the people on the sidelines are actually clones of tyler and josh, theres a whole lore side to this which helps this music video make more sense

Since the new song came out i searched for your reaction, like every 2 - 3 hours i was checking if you uploaded it already😂♥️

Cucumbers is a sad name. We are called the Clique. WE APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH!

Tyler wears his hair like that because his Daughter Rosie wears it like that

I'm so ready for this! Thanks for riding with it

💃💃💃💃💃💃 Happy Dance 🎉🎉🎉

Dude I've been so busy.. i haven't watch you in so long. Still.. EPIC

Great reaction for a great song! The hair is for Rosie. 😍

Cucumbers are back!

He’s written this for his brother and has said there’s nothing cryptic to decipher. With every album, they shed their skin. We diehard fans now have to shed our skin and change our wardrobe to the new colors 🤦🏻‍♀️

You gotta check out the promotional images/posters man! (And the text at the very bottom) It all looks like everything is fine and dandy, but this entire album is actual one big propaganda piece by DEMA. They are capture and now used to draw more people in with this upbeat poppy tune. There are a bunch of hints supporting this too

I bought a ticket for the live stream.. I am beyond Excited and happy

I have binged all of your top reactions the last couple of days so i was excited for this. I love this song so much much and i am looking forward to seeing what's in store storywise with dema and all. Thank you for the great videos, take your time making reactions for the new album!

Yeah, great reaction as always! I can depend on you to have awesome introspection into Twenty One pilots. Until I watched your reactions probably over a year ago now I didn't realize how deep their music was so hearing your thoughts on them is beyond amazing.🥒 💚🥒💚🥒💚🥒

Love when you really dig and dance along to the music!! Been waiting for this reaction 😍😍👏🏻 LOVE THAT THEY ARE BACK! This is gonna be soooo freakin’ good ❤️

GREAT REACTION FIL! 🔥I absolutely love this song and can’t wait for the whole “Scaled and Icy” album! Speaking of the album, I read yesterday that the title,Scaled and Icy, is an anagram for Clancy is Dead. 🤔

Always love watching your reaction & theories to their videos! Feel like we’re on the same page every time! Cant wait till we get more. Have a good day! 🤜🏼

So love it ..I love his funky hair ..love the whole thing absolutely amazing ..an such a beautiful breakdown ..sweet lovely fi thanks so much love an god bless x

This song...OMG!

Great Reaction & Breakdown!👊🏻 It is such a puzzle with TØP & I appreciate them for that. The more I listen to this Song the more I LOVE it! Take all the time you need! You're awesome & worth the wait! 💙💕💙

So excited for this album 💿 great reaction Fil 👏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼👍🏼❤️💛💙🇨🇦

Was waiting patiently for you reaction. Thank you Fable

Tyler's moves were also something I noticed quickly. His movements are swift and confident, more dance and less twitching (obviously and clearly) and I may be reading too deep into this, but it's possible that's a sign of them being under Demas control. Tyler's twitching was always him reallly becoming one with the song and really being on the same wavelength as his words and music, so maybe it's possible that Dema has made them more "polished" and typical to appeal to the audience, also the whole 80's themes, which were trending recently, with The Weeknd and Dua Lipa both having 80's themed albums and both topping charts.

I was expecting your reaction since I first saw the video yesterday!! 😊 thank you!! I totally agree with you!! this is a new level in TOP life, it´s evolution... I love how they change, how they grow as artists and as humans.... I also sense more positivity (and I think in some way they feel maybe that it is what people need right now and they share all the good things that are happening in their lifes..) but in TOP style, not a naive postivity but realistic and honest. BUT at the same time there is going to be a completely different dimension about the Dema -Clancy- Blurryface etc storyline... another layer, as you always says,.. Metaphors, simbolism, hiden messages, mistery, criticism...Love their creativy and the complexity of ther art!! Hugs from Buenos Aires!!😘

YYYYYAAAAAYYYY, loved your reaction. Frack, I've missed you,lol. hUGS

I’ve been waiting for this reaction!!!!

The duo buns are 100% Rosie (his daughter) inspired!!!

Welcome back 21+1 cucumbers 👊😁👍

missed your TOP videos, seeing someone so invested in the same thing I am is a good feeling and its so fun to experience these feelings together :)

Appreciate all you do for the fans!!❤️❤️❤️

Ty Fil. 🙌💯🔥 your passion will pay with dividends. Again, a heart felt ty for all you share with us. #Qcumbersquad #shyaway

THX U - ya (👀) so HAPPY (like sitting in ur most comfy chair) & comes thru in an excellent reaction FIL! 🤍Tica✨

Like you, so excited to hear and see new music from TOP. Thanks for the reaction.

You got a new subscriber! I completely fell in love with you while reacting to the video.

Track...Music Track! "Song he wrote" is right in the lyric. Tyler let his brother watch him write this song. Track is almost certainly the song. He's almost certainly talking about his brother launching his own album.

Yyyeeeeyyy...welcome back Prof..happy to see you ❤️🔥🇵🇭

At the end of the video, he's messing with the camera the way he started the Level of Concern video. Any theories behind that? His dance moves remind me of the Library dance scene in the Breakfast Club movie. The girl with the dandruff- her dance moves especially. Otherwise, the rest are all very 1980's. I'm loving it! And I kind of love the space buns, especially because he wore them with his daughter as his hair was growing out. It's cute.

You're exactly what reaction channels should be like. You are appreciated man, can't wait for more videos :D

Heeey Fil the live on May 21 is gonna be epic... love this song and ur reaction ✨

First here !!! So very happy 😁😁😁 oooo yeah !!!!

Yesss i was waiting for uuuu

I enjoy your reactions. Have a gut feeling that you experienced some of the same thought-patterns as Tyler and your reactions seems legit. I am very much the same. A grown man (Not the typical TOP-fan) but has had issues with depression and chaotic thinking. I think he slams the nail everytime talking about these very complex thoughts and feelings of hurt.

So lovely to see you beautiful fi ..always makes for a special beautiful day much love an god bless x

Aay I was waiting for you to react to this!

I love this video so much!

Hello fable as always your twenty reactions are the best Now Tyler and Josh are being controlled by Nico and the Nine Bishops, I mean Blurryface and they are in Dema ... that's why the colors are happy colors and pastels, giving the impression that everything is beautiful and that everything is fine, giving an impression of the happiness of the boys but it is not like that If you look at the expressions of Tyler and Josh ... plus Tyler's it is as if something was not quite right things Thanks for reacting to the boys. As always, a big greeting and a lot of support from Argentina! Stay Alive || - //

I was waiting for this reaction... (:

i was waitnig for you video

Man, you should've seen my excitement when I got the news. And the EXTRA excitement about the fact that DRAGONS are involved. Also how do you just.. interpret lyrics and meanings on the spot like that? I suck at that stuff. Whenever I do pick up on something myself (like connecting dots in a show that may not be obvious) I feel like I've won the lottery.

Blue is the color of defeat

Wow started watching you at 2k you've got a lot of subs now

You have nothing to apologize for. You have a wife and a child and a family and you just do what you need to do and we’re here when you’re done. You made so many people fall in love with twenty one pilots all over again that I really hope you stick with it but if not we love you

Dear Mr Fable Spear, I really enjoy your enthusiastic and detailed reactions to twenty one pilots songs and videos and the effort you put into them …. So while I wait patiently for you to react to the new Paladin Strait video (which is epic) I am going back and enjoying reactions that I haven’t seen before and your videos always make me happy 🩵💛❤️ thank you!

Great reaction man! P.s. Tyler wears his hair like that a lot just like his daughter Rosie. Lol

5:11 three lights are lit, but the fourth one's out : )

WOOT!!!

in the video you can see, the 3 lanterns are lit and the fourth is off ... that refers to the song "The Judge", were he said: "three lights are lit but the fourth one‘s out"

Twenty one pilots meets Stranger Things meets The Weeknd meets 1984 MJ. 🙌🏻

Haven’t even started. But. I. Can’t. Wait. To. Watch. Your. Reaction.

I'm definitely not used to Tyler having long hair. 😅

Never beg forgiveness for putting your needs first.

OH MAN, YOUR VIDEOS WASN'T APPEARING IN MY RU-vid, I MISSED THAT

Penguin shuffle 🤣

Also I think the buns are because of “Rosie”! She’s always in them too!

Yeeeeehaaaaaaa. ✌️

I came here now to ask you to react to this song😍

Finally!

I'm dancing around my kitchen . so happy

Tyler did his hair like that because that's how he does Rosie's hair (his daughter)

I see people have mentioned that the song was written almost as a tutorial for his brother Jay who asked to kinda shadow Tyler while he was recording. But did you know that Jay Joseph did actually recently release his first EP with 4 songs and they are actually pretty good. If you consider reacting to them in the future, "Jumpman" is really good IMO 😊

I need to say I love the older songs. Level of concern and shy away are so different (I also like it but the old songs are better in my opinion)

fck yeah !

Finally!!! Such a good song!! Check your instagram dms and you ll see why he wears his hair that way...I got you bro!!! GREAT REACTION!!!! As always!!! Can't wait for the 21st!!!! II-//

Lovvvvvve them! FYI....the blue dragon is Ned. Also...don’t hate on the space buns man! 🤣
