My mom and 2 of my grandmas died with in the same year. We played this song at my mom's celebration of life. I cry every time I hear it and I always will. Grateful for the song and memories. She loved this group.

[@peterquatermass6392]

I am not a parent, but I am a son, and this hits home so much. I am so terrified when I lose my mom. As I was growing up I learned to hide my emotions and keep them deep down. These reactions get my emotions flowing.

[@WolfmanXD]

My dude, don't ever feel like you're less of a man or a person for crying to a song that is MEANT to elicit emotion. I'm not even a father and this song hits hard. I can't imagine not being there for my family. There are songs that I just can't listen to because I can't listen to them without crying, one of them being five finger death punch (because of course) gone away, because the lyrics hit me so hard every time because I WOULD take the place of anyone that I've lost, in a heartbeat. You love your family, and you want to be there for them, don't ever feel like you need to feel ashamed of that.

[@kanegriffin1305]

I just got back from visiting my dad who passed away when i was 13, I’m now 22 with a year and a half old daughter and another in the way, there has been soo much that my dad wasn’t here to see but the thing that hurt the most was realizing he’d never meet his grand kids.. two days ago was the first time I’ve had to see his grave in 5 years and it was the first time I’d ever brought my daughter.. watching her put her hand on his picture and then lay down next to where his casket was dropped hit me in a way i never thought could happen. But it made me realize that he’s still here watching over us, this song is so perfect with the things he taught me about how important time with loved ones is but for it to also come from a band he raised me on and the timing of this reaction.. my heart is crying 😭😭

[@JawsMcBangBang]

Hey brother, I understand your pain. My father passed away 4 months before my son was born. Dad and I would talk about what it means being a father. He was so excited to meet his grandchild but, that day would never happen. It’s important that we take the time to spend with loved ones because it can all vanish in an instant. Cherish the time we have.

[@mishkajb]

When I first heard this, I heard it from my daughter's POV. That was months ago. Today, I sat down with the local funeral home and started pre-arrangements for when my time comes. One of the tasks that I'm trying to pre-plan (after taking care of my Mom's arrangements) is music for the celebration of life. This song is on that list.

[@Lone-ranger-dw2mc]

You shouldn't be sorry for showing emotion, you are only human like the rest of us and your children are absolutely lucky to have you as an amazing role model

[@chaoslegend953]

This was my most listened to song last year. Hits home

[@user-gz8ic7fo1w]

I'm a kid and I have had a rough life this song always brings tiers to my eyes

[@bencrispin4869]

Man, this song freaks me out as an uncle. I could only imagine how much it would break me down if i was a father

[@matthewnett]

I know that this video is over a year old and dont know if you will see this but I need to thank you for your reaction. I lost both parents 2 years ago about 6 months apart. It was and still is sometimes a hard time for me. I have always love FFDP music and seeing your point of view on this song means a lot. Knowing that other people are dealing with the same things I am. I am also a 40 year old father of 3 and this song hits hard. Again thank you for this. It really hit me in the feelings and allowed me to see that life is shorter than any of us can know but we should live each day looking at the brighter side of the grey that is this life because you never know when it may be you or a loved ones last day.

[@kuolinkorina]

Never delete any of your videos, your kids will love watching these when you're gone. I know I would. There is a video where my father sleds down a hill laughing, and I go back to it every now and then.

[@adamedwards2261]

Only real men cry brother. Don’t you ever be ashamed of crying and loving your family! Keep up the great fight!

[@kympeplau1635]

Oh one more thing. After my son passed away at 39 years old I had a hard time listening to One More Light by Linkin Park and cried every time. But I love the song.

[@jonathannadeau668]

I've loved this song since I first heard it. I'm glad you showed your emotions. If you ever need to talk or vent, everyone here including me are more than willing to talk and listen ☺️👍

[@kympeplau1635]

I’m a year late in responding. Just discovered you and FFDP fairly recently. I’m quite a bit older than you at 68 and just wanted to say that there is no shame in crying. In fact, it’s actually good to have a cry now and then. It releases endorphins, the tears clear your eyes, better for your mental health and so on. Some people are more sensitive than others. I respect a person more when they are not afraid to show their emotions. I like your channel.

[@dyllinsmalley7933]

My dad passed months before my son was born and I know what you mean as far as not having someone for advice and I hope everyday that I'm doing right by my dad(gone for 7) and my son(now 6) this song cuts deep for me and scars

[@newjokeaccount]

I can’t give myself time to sit and “listen” to this song or I become emotional as well. I have left my daughter an hour long video of my advice and so on should something happen to me. But I also feel this from the other end. My mom passed suddenly and she was in so much pain it was her choice. I know if I feel this way about mine and my daughters relationship she felt the same way with ours. Love you mom and miss you all the time. We all do and when my baby girl tells me she misses you it still kills me.

[@Cronos1211]

Brother don't ever feel bad about showing emotion, you are a stronger man for showing it! This song hits hard every time I listen to this, another song that brings out this same feeling is Three Days Grace - Lifetime, just came out not long ago, it takes a special person to feel proper emotion from music. Stay strong brother.

[@jkj42345]

1 year ago today my grandmother was killed by a drunk driver who still out free on bail. This song has helped me cope.

[@chazzthaspazz4475]

this song hits close to home while been dealing with suicidal ideation from my failures cant find my path in life anymore. and ongoing health issues for a year. its hard to keep faith in the lord aswell. maybe this is all happening for a reason or i just have terrible luck. im 21 i dont want meds i just want relief. just no one understands mental health until they wake up everyday not wanting to live then they will understand.

[@elmarkoehler5167]

Hey buddy… Very much understand your emotions. Thanks for sharing them with me. You are not alone…

[@piage3067]

Everyone who calls you"the veteran that cries", is simply too young or old and stupid! Dont take care at theese mentally youngsters! Nature didnt think about human ages more than 40, thats a fact! So, everyone have to reach this, and then we are talking about anything! You did everything right, nothing else!!! Thank you very much!

[@williamroberts8853]

Everyone wonders if they've done everything they could, if it was enough to prepare their loved ones for loss and hard times ahead, was it enough.

[@neeleym00481977]

All we can do is keep on keepin on... hold your head up, keep looking forward...

[@adamedwards2261]

You are blessed for what you have. Believe you me! I lost my wife and 1 yr old years ago and it still feels like yesterday. I pray you never have to go thru that. Stay strong man!

[@danaowens3478]

Live everyday as if it were your last. Thank you for your words of wisdom. These hard times every one is being tested. Be kind love every one and stay humble. Tomorrow is never promised.

[@SurvivingJosh]

when they say music touches you, this is a example

[@lena.jansson04]

I like this song but it’s the first time I see this video. Suddenly the lyrics make sense to me. It’s so sad😢 Thank you for sharing your emotions 🙏🏻

[@jakeleejack5363]

I feel u man. I lost my older disabled brother and girlfriend weeks apart from each other. This song always hits the feel. Some how I wonder how im still standing. Respect brother 🖤✊🏽

[@fredbarnes2600]

Hmmm when Ivan is in the mood he can write some really beautiful stuff. And the bands name is appropriate because sometimes, emotionally they hit below the belt. But hey someone has to tackle the hard stuff. I'm glad we have people like FFDP. And you you too brother, keep on keeping on. If the worst happens, I'll make sure they know. We all might be hooligans but we're hooligans that have each other's backs.✊

[@dommyd73]

Hey man, I first came across your channel doing Falling in Reverse- Popular Monster and the Trilogy reactions...... I only just came across this and your other FFDP reactions... suffice to say that I'm sure you've learnt by now that IVAN MOODY is not a typical rock star and had a far from perfect or even "normal childhood" I love his music because he wears his heart on his sleeve and is just truly authentic.... i always knew you were a real dude from your Ronnie Radke (FIR) vids back then...... I remember seeing you emotional in the 'Wrong side of heaven' reaction ages ago.... but just saw this one today....... and I fucking stand, cheer and applaud you for you open heart reaction, and emotional tangents and as another DAD myself, I wish there were so many more people like you getting seen and heard that "tictok and Hashtags" were eventually Phased out by people actually giving a F@$K about each once again. It was an honour to watch this and see true emotion from another guy that grew up in the screwed up 'big boys don't cry' generation Now I'm ranting on.. lol .. suffice to say emotions are a good thing to accept, feel and understand whenever the - late night need to get aw

[@pedrosilva3771]

sorry for your dad,we all think in this,what will happen to my kids if i'm no longer here tomorrow for them....life is hard,and we have to learn with it...."when the lights goes down ,know that i never far away..." a lesson to us and our kids

[@heitorfreitas2269]

here in rio de janeiro Brazil crying with with you brother. dad of 2 boys and 2 girls.

[@LordNifty]

Anyone else reminded of Everything Dies by Type O Negative?

[@atolmasoff]

You're not a pussy. Your human. I cried my eyes out listening to this over and over for 45 minutes while driving home thinking of my sister I lost to ALS. It's HARD to listen to, but it goes SOOOOO FUCKING DEEP for people who can relate, which is probably most of us!

[@jamesg7371]

Another song on the playlist for me is Dead Man's Party, because why not.

[@brendan3081]

hey man hope things have gotten better in the few months after this video, i just found your videos today and have been watching a ton of them as you might notice by comment notifications lol.....I know you have to work up to doing videos like these but I feel very strongly that another great song by them to do is REMEMBER EVERTHING....great song with a lot of heart behind it during a time in Ivans life where he was at his lowest and if i remember correctly the song was basically a letter to his parents (been a couple years since i saw him live talking about it so i might be remembering wrong)

[@retonito92]

It’s funny, a couple of weeks ago I mentioned that this song will be on my funeral playlist as well however I had forgotten about hold on to memories and I’ve cried to that song a bunch of times when my father was going through a really bad clinical depression. I didn’t expect to cry today during my lunch but oh well here we are. You’ve gained a fan today, stay strong friend, showing emotion is never a bad thing, it lets you know you’re a sane person.

[@smurfette69able]

You are human, and we all think about this in general it's called life. You are awesome for reviewing/reacting to their videos/songs from your heart.

[@ashanks7731]

Just to be safe. Whenever you react to another ffdp song. Just keep a bowl of onions ready. Have something to blame the tears on.

[@allisonhutchins9323]

I'm not a parent nor do I get along with my parents at all, I don't even talk to my siblings, but if I ever have kids I would never want to see them upset, hurt or feel like I'm not there for them

[@bradpriebe9218]

From one parent to another, all you can do is do the best you can, one day at a time, day after day and hope it's enough. Some days you succeed, some days you don't but the effort will show.

[@Killbuni-theOnly]

Wow, the feels man as a dad I totally get it, strength to show those emotions; more power to your elbow man. Keep the faith, hold that head up, you are deffo no idiot.

[@thereptiledude7247]

First time I heard this I loved it. Then that weekend I lost a childhood friends mom who was like another mom. Hits hard.

[@nunogarces1628]

Right here with you bro. Can't even picture the idea of leaving my kids in this world at least until they are ready to hold on their on...

[@8O8pouria8O8]

man im not even a dad and im crying . im not a dad but im a son and the fact that one day i might come home and my family would be nowhere to be seen or heard

[@marcelczarnowske4123]

You are doing good and your loved ones will remember it. We love you!

[@malefikgamer5446]

OH man.....you got me right in the feels with this reaction. I'm not a parent so it probably doesn't hit the same way but my mom was killed in a car accident when I was 8. So I get the pain and the loss. It's rough out there man....but we do the best we can.

[@Zerio]

Unsure what you meant with "He never got to see my grandkids"? He has surely seen them looking down from heaven. ❤ Great reactions as usual

[@fernandorodrigues1939]

I feel you... I am grey and bald(er) have a 18 year old daugther... and one and a half year ago my dad died in my arms... I FEELLLLL YOU!!! Not one day I dont think about my father... love stays in good memories! And everyday I hope to be half as good as dad as he was! And now I have t go hug my daugther and say to her I lover just because I still can!

[@Anonymous-xo9ju]

Uff such an intesive feeling from a Father dont sounds famillya for me. But i rly hope thats just the truth meaing behind such words. Im from Germany and a lot of Familys are fcking broken, to see such a Feeling from a Father is in one way very Emotional and in the other way im a bit of jealous (i hope this word is correct ^^). But wherever ure Kids are i hope they know what they get. Its not natural to have such a Parent. Honor for u Love ya. AND ure not even close a Mess man. U made my Life avery Day with Reactions and Feelings like that. I enjoy it al lot cause i missed so much of these in my own Family im glad theyre others who can Life this way

[@tornao]

Such a good reaction.

[@jannekaanta2884]

Take care of you and your family 👪. 👍❤️👍🇸🇪

[@darthshrek1]

Love you, Bro... just in case. ❤️❤️❤️

[@Ando2k10]

Song suggestion...if you haven't heard it, or reacted to it...definitely Megadeth's "A Tout Le Monde".

[@denickisandels]

Like I heard the other day, Our life is the Dash between the years we were born and died, for example 1977-2021 :-((

[@denickisandels]

Our life is but a blip makes even more sense after hearing this at my Mom n law's service a few days ago...God Bless our Dash

[@arandomwrath9171]

The downfall of us all. All that is good becomes broken.

[@SleepProvo]

Brother, just because your eyes water and you show emotion doesn't mean you're a pussy. You got heart man, I feel like you and I have the same feelings about our kids and life. I just want to say thanks man. My eyes water with you my friend. I hope the best for you and your family. Times are rough and I'm about to be homeless. I'm glad my kids are grown up. I feel like I've lost my ability to provide and function normally.... Stay up man, mad respect for you!!!!

[@fjrieser]

I thing This is a Horror parallel Universum, Time for a Drink

[@samf.6298]

Have no kids but not by choice. I completely feel you.....

[@Gfc1200]

Watch "sham pain" or "jekyl and hyde" for a fun time video from them .

[@stormraven6300]

Another good song bye this band is got your six

[@stormraven6300]

By. I just can't type.

[@pr3dat0r13]

❤️

[@tay13666]

Nothing wrong with feeling your feelings. No need to appologize for it either. Maybe next time you do FFDP you do something easy, like Sham Pain, or Under And Over It.

[@MrGeezered]

Dude, I lost 4 family members during lockdown, as a result I'm now going through a divorce as my mental health went nuts. Please stay strong 💪

[@MrGeezered]

Also i tried to commit suicide at the weekend, luckily I had friends on hand. So stay Strong brother. Fight the fight

[@TheFierrouno]

..I could write it in English, but it's not the same.. Solamente quien va haciendo una comparación de vivencias realmente puede entender y comprender sus reacciones..

[@albertdombrowski9590]

Understanding you and yeah profilling you towards your audiance. Don't have the bar and odds are very high that one is going to know when I insult them. Warning, I guess. I'm not trying to insult, but I think I understand where your comming from with your reaction. What do I know. I'm single veteran guy who knows nothing of being a parent. In my experences in life, such wasn't in the cards. Mustn't rolled the critical role dice to have kids. Hope that's more then enough information stating that in paranting. I maybe not the best person to speak on such matters. Matters learned from actual experence. Have none as a parent. Old School. From my experence, I try not to ever play the "what if" secnariou game to decide how to live life. If there be a actual multiverse, then wouldn't that logically make such thoughts a waste of potential energy that needs to be focused on what's really important. The things you allude to towards the end of this song. Your response is establishing what type of guy you are. In that, is is wrong of me to say that your clearly a BAMF? I hope you know what is a BAMF?
