Whispers In The Dark by Skillet Reaction | First Listen 

This is such a beautiful reaction! Here’s some more information about the song: *“Whispers in the Dark"* is a song by the Christian rock band Skillet, and the second single off their sixth album Comatose. The song has achieved a large amount of popularity in both mainstream and Christian radio. It is the fourth single by Skillet to be released to physical media. *“Whispers in the Dark”* is one of Skillet’s most iconic songs. It is the fourth single from their sixth studio album, Comatose, and has received critical acclaim from both fans and critics. The song is about searching for God in times of trouble and feeling lost and alone. John Cooper, the lead singer, explained in an interview with Jesus Freak Hideout that “Whispers in the Dark” was inspired by his personal struggles with faith and the difficulties of navigating life. He stated that the song is a reminder that we are not alone in our struggles and that God is always present, even in our darkest days. The message behind “Whispers in the Dark” is one of hope, faith, and renewal. The song is a reminder that everyone struggles with their faith, and no one is perfect. However, despite the trials and tribulations of life, there is always a guiding light that leads us through the darkness. The message of the song is particularly relevant in today’s world, where people are facing unprecedented challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, political unrest, and economic uncertainty. In times of crisis, it is easy to feel isolated and alone. However, Skillet’s “Whispers in the Dark” reminds us that we are not alone and that help is always available.

I can’t wait to watch your next reaction.

Skillet puts on a hell of a show too guys. Worth a ticket or two

Skillet is definitely a Christian band, but they've had a decent amount of mainstream success and tour with both mainstream and Christian acts. Good catch with the consuming fire reference. Their live shows are where they really stand out, though. Anyway, it looked like the suggested video on the one that you reacted to was for the song "Not Gonna Die (with Epic Intro)" - it would be fantastic to put that particular one on the wheel. Most reactors do the main music video, which is awesome, but the intro, which is the end of the previous track on the album, just really amps things up.

Skillet - The Resistance, Better Than Drugs, not gonna die A few of my favorites by skillet

Skillet - The Resistance (Please add to the wheel)

Hey guys. Really enjoying your reactions. 😄 Keep it up you doing great. I would say my two favorite songs would be 'Feel Invincible' And 'Legendary' but all their songs are great. 😊

Skillet-Collide please

Great reaction guys! I love Skillet! Could you add to your wheel these songs by them: Hero ; Awake and Alive ; Comatose ; Rise ; The last night ; Not Gonna Die ; The Resistance ; Feel Invincible; I want to live ; Watching for comets ( I haven't mentioned Monster assuming you already have it on your wheel). These are all really great songs I think you should react to!

They are a christen rock band, I am a huge fan of them.

A lot of religions are writers and poets have said it so it’s universal

Y’all would love Crossfire from Skillet, from their latest album Dominion: Day of Destiny

It's God talking to us

Just found your channel. New subscriber! The wheel is a great concept. How many songs can the wheel hold?

So i just found you guys. I rememeber listening to this when it came out. I believe its supposed to be like a message from God, them being a Christian. Definitely not a lover, but they made a lot of their music to be interpreted in how you see fit in their earlier music

Monster is a good one but definitely overplayed

I have some fan made videos of this song with footage of the wrestler Jeff Hardy burned on a dvdr and they are awesome together

The lead singer's voice sounds like Corey Taylor for some reason in some cases.

Fantastic. Love you guys! Keep going 👍 Please make reaction to Breaking Benjamin - Blood, Into the Nothing and Hollow. Please guys 🙏. Please. And also Skillet - Awake and Alive, Not Gonna Die Tonight and Victorious. I'm sure Rob is gonna like it. I'm watching your videos with a pleasure 😊❤

How do you get songs onto the wheel?

Ya Jesus is like that.

Love this band and song even though they’re a Christian band but the lyrics can be subjective
