First Time Hearing | twenty one pilots - Holding On To You Reaction

[@ericstockman7405]

If you're going to start with an album, I'd start with Vessel - then I'd just follow them chronologically - Blurryface, Trench, Scaled and Icy - they do technically have two projects before Vessel but the very first album did not have the current drummer and the second album was pretty much destroyed by their record label - Vessel was the first album they made after being signed to a major label

[@JuliooFeer]

Selftitled one is a beast dude he needs to listen to dat

[@eric_welch]

um, I respectfully disagree and think they should start with Regional at Best if they can find it :) but I mean, let's be honest, have any of us heard a tøp song you didn't like?? not me :p

[@ericstockman7405]

Those albums are good for hard-core twenty one pilots fans but I think to introduce them to the sound of Tyler and Josh it's best to start with Vessel

[@McrLoVrfanAlt]

TOP is a band that deserves people listening to their whole discography. Not only listening but diving in and dissecting their songs and themes. Absolutely brilliant.

[@seanhutt4621]

Trees and migraine are both fantastic live performances Can't wait to see some more twenty One pilots and I'm here for any kind of in-depth long form type video you want to put out bro

[@skyt3265]

finally i got a (personally) satisfying TOP (one of my fav bands) reaction from my favorite reactor!

[@smolove4005]

"Trees" live from the Fox theater, absolute must and make SURE it's from the Fox

[@joephilippus1749]

I’ve never clicked on a video faster than this one. I love your content so much!

[@azotimaix8175]

YESSSS more bro you are going to LOVE them

[@Idklol211]

FINALLY!!! You're one of my absolute favorite reactors...and this is my favorite band of all time. I've been waiting for you to do more reactions to them for a while. Please keep going with them. You wont be disappointed, i promise!!

[@RenxChilla]

'Lane Boy' or 'Chlorine' for sure should be next :)

[@SherryBandito]

Glad you checked out the live performance of this song. I like you mentioned linkin park. They were my favorite band, R.I.P. Chester Bennington.. he mentioned a few times that twenty one pilots was his favorite band ❤ great reaction. I love twenty one pilots and I look forward to more reactions

[@imamleza]

Go with Ode to sleep - twenty one pilots (official video) it's kinda cool journey

[@jemjemmington5883]

Definitely should give ode to sleep a listen, one of my favourite songs from them or fall away that’s another great one

[@dejahwilson268]

Make sure it's the official ode to sleep video- it's a must!

[@deejayturtle]

MrLboyd, "Neon Gravestones" is a discussion of suicide in the music industry. I look forward to your thoughts and breakdown of this song. It's by Twenty One Pilots.

[@mistymichelle9957]

Thank you for checking out more TOP. The messages combined with the delivery... Tyler & Josh are a collective breath of fresh air. P.L.U.R.R. from ATX!

[@Thialfispeed]

You should definitely react to guns for hands it is an amazing song in itself and the lyrics are extremely deep

[@ShAdoWj1995]

the albums in order are no phun intended (tylor Solo album) twenty one pilots (self titled) regional at best vessel blurry face trench scaled and icy

[@Sugarhicups_11]

Been a fan for so many years and this song still gives me the chills.

[@CubeGodd]

More Twenty One Pilots! Edit: It's funny you mentioned Linkin Park; Linkin Park's lead vocalist, Chester Bennington, actually really enjoyed Twenty One Pilots' music.

[@tdurongphant]

Guns for hands.

[@imamleza]

Well yeah, and it's funny somehow linkin park and twenty one pilots r my favourite bands

[@mama_nez]

me internally screaming at you to look up at the screen as you missed josh Dun doing his backflip off the piano during the "lean with it" bridge was absolutely deafening 😂😂😂

[@mama_nez]

Migraine and Guns for Hands are a couple of my all time favorite tracks from these guys.

[@slumberlisa]

Every song is amazing and completely different. That's what I love about them!

[@davidtalavera9138]

The music videos for most of the songs you learn about are definitely a better listening experience. Also you see the vision of the artist by watching the video. Not to mention I feel is a better experience for the viewers seeing the whole package even tho the pilots rock this one out

[@bibitch]

I agree, because live performances can sometimes be difficult to hear especially if it's later in the show. Singers' voices can get tired after a while. TOP concerts are always such a blast and are definitely worth a watch, but after you're already at least a little familiar with the song in question. And anyway the music video for Holding on to You has always been one of my favorites! I think it's really beautifully done.

[@DrtBgMarx]

You could dissect all their works every album and I promise you won’t be disappointed.

[@skyt3265]

i believe LP is an inspiration of theirs

[@chef3765]

Most definitely a huge inspiration

[@fandalorian49]

Took my son to see 21 pilots last weekend. Heard their music before but didn’t think much of it This was the best show I’ve ever seen. And I’ve been to countless concerts and seen all genres. These guys are fantastic

[@shreddedninja]

This is my favourite TOP song

[@curtiswilson3569]

21 pilots transcend music and lyrical ability. They bring feelings home where others could not. Live with the album "Vessel" for a little bit and find your mental health get better.

[@gabymgrn]

If you want to dive on an album I strongly recommend VESSEL. That's the album of this song and other great songs like Ode to Sleep and Migraine

[@limeisrichard]

i love that you are not afraid of reacting to the niche

[@yzzaJ]

Any song from the live at fox theatre series, like this one, is awesome. I think Vessel would be a really good place to start doing album reviews. Many themes carry through their albums so chronological is probably best.

[@jeremycastro8223]

Every single one of thier performances at fox theater gives me chills every time I listen to it. The perfect amount of experimenting and having fun while staying true to the original.

[@marianacastroevans5142]

You NEED to react to Trees, or Migraine.

[@Davesnothere666]

“Trees” live is one of the better concert experiences I’ve had.

[@flecs]

my second fav song of theirs! 1 being car radio which i know youve seen. my third favorite is a cover of i cant help falling in love with you

[@apocalypticgaming101]

Honestly love seeing people’s reactions to twenty one pilots and seeing people truly enjoying their music as much as I do |-/

[@salamsalut5350]

yes review them pleaseee

[@valentin_hmmrl]

Finally a new 21 Pilots reaction. This took way too long. :D

[@sherylh2570]

Their newer song Levitate is a solid all rap song

[@Blueeyedjenn14]

Seen them 5 times twice traveling out of state - worth it! Obviously a huge fan but their album Vessel is by far my favorite

[@ethanburns4786]

I would definitely suggest listening to their self titled album in order before going into anything else of theirs. Its very thought provoking and will allow you to see how they grow over the years once you finish that album

[@matta344]

I would add the warning that if you do listen to the first album, be prepared to probably cry a little or a lot, depending. I know at least for me, there are a few songs on that album I can't get through without choking up or crying at least a little.

[@anthonymiller3601]

Personally, I think he should react to Vessel, Blurryface, or Trench before diving into Self Titled. I’ve seen too many attempt Self Titled without listening to their newer stuff and it kind of brings people away from the band in general. Self Titled is something new listeners need eases into first. Just my opinion.

[@matta344]

@@anthonymiller3601 I agree with that, actually. It took ne some time to actually begin to enjoy the self titled album. It was one of the ones I had to start listening to the words before the music, because it was so different from what I was used to.

[@christopherlyons4923]

Run and Go! Let’s deep dive!

[@macacasylvanus2]

YEEE GO FOR AN ALBUM OF THIS GUYS

[@carlos7mh]

Great band to be reacting to!!!

[@shaunacohen7630]

Please check out TREES or GONER from this same concert, Live at the Fox Theater. Both are amazing in different ways. If you review an album, I agree with others that you should start with Vessel. Great reaction!

[@richardpresnell3478]

Definitely need to listen to "Ride" one of my favorites.

[@sukimarmelaide4030]

YES! Please dive in!!

[@jacksonmelish2026]

That wasn't the actual intro to the song, the real one is shorter

[@ajil112]

So glad you rock with them. They literally have no misses so pick any song or album and we'll be here for it. As for specific suggestions you may want to check out the lore playlist, also trees at the fox theater, fairly local and addict with a pen.

[@jesrush]

He’s talking to God.✌️😊

[@BaskinWilliams]

I listen to a LOT of different music and I have to say I don’t think they have one song I dislike.

[@TheMessengerMichael]

Mr. B do Fairly Local by 21 pilots it's awesome.

[@arianaevans232]

If you watch their official music videos you'll notice they have a background story they're telling through their videos

[@jorgefabian4220]

You should listen to No Chances

[@anki_power2453]

Neon gravestones is a must!

[@LAVISHING]

Thanks for this! I’ll play this with them on 7/19/23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin!

[@bmillsproductions]

Every album is a trully different experience. Not like a little different, but a trully different experience. The face masks are explained on Vessel. The red colors are explained in Blurryface. Yellow in Trench. Then SAI is it's own monster.

[@dejahwilson268]

I may be jumping the gun when I say- welcome to the clique (the fan base) I see it happening- it generally does. As suggested below go in order of album release if you TRULY want to understand Tyler Joseph (lead singer) and his song writing/creative process and genius. Also (unless copyright seems to be a big issue) going with the actual music video, if available, is your best way to see into his brain- all videos are the image he expected them to be. You have truly discovered a musical masterpiece in Twenty Øne Piløts- have fun!!! Can't wait for the next one

[@aliciasavage6801]

Heavy Dirty Soul, Heathens, migraine, kitchen sink, Lane boy, Jumpsuit, Nico and the Niners, Bandito, My Blood, Ode to Sleep

[@tinabagheri5158]

Would love to see you do a full album review! Start from the first album!

[@tarar1998]

I'm here for a TOP journey!!

[@aimjokerr6948]

You should react to the whole album Trench, u will love it!

[@FiveAcross]

I agree with people below. Chronological order. Once you get in to Blurryface though, it starts to tell a story that carries over in to Trench. There's lore out there and everything.

[@skyt3265]

TOP!

[@marzix427]

It's an amazing song. Look forward to seeing more from you. Chlorine, Jumpsuit, and anything off their Blurryface album: esp Heavydirtysoul.

[@dejahwilson268]

If you watch heavydirtysoul, then you need to watch the trench trilogy after 😉

[@casmatt99]

This band filled the void for the next generation of pop-punk kids who were too young for the bands of the early aughts

[@etessier87]

They always end their show with "Trees" it's worth checking out. Great vids 👌

[@MinimumGnome]

Once again, highly highly recommend you listen to "Lane Boy" by them next.

[@mama_nez]

CAN TWENTY ONE PILOTS HAVE THEIR OWN PLAYLIST PRETTY PLEASE SIR? 🙏

[@essentialreactions8694]

You reacted to the right video for this song.

[@tdurongphant]

Guns for hands

[@LauraArual-qb3jr]

I really like your reactions! Coud you get somewhat back to Twenty one pilots, please? Have you dived into their lore? If not, please give it a chance... it'll BLOW your mind!

[@its_marse]

As much as I want to recommend Trench for a full listen, I’d at the least start with Vessel

[@nathanblythe7305]

You need to do message man it’s awesome

[@Sumdumfilipino]

Oh my…if we could’ve gotten Chester and Tyler to sing a song together. Like an acoustic Mashup of Crawling/Goner.

[@YunginGetLive]

You shouldn't even ruin it for yourself. Start from their 1st album, self titled and go.

[@Idklol211]

Start with the album Vessel!!!

[@isaacdaquilemaa]

can u react to Semi-Automatic from this same band please

[@kyingrosso]

Trench is by far their best album, musically and lyrically in my opinion. Every song on that album is not only an absolute hit, but it really connects to the listener in every way. My favorites from that album are Bandito, Jumpsuit and Nico and the Niners.

[@oliviarojas9131]

Always looking for a Goner reaction 😂

[@NSPLG]

watch the music video for this song! it’s so moving

[@meghandurrance486]

If you're going to do an album you really need to start with Vessel. I am so here for this content

[@Sakura_Sabre]

to your comparison of top to linkin park; top was actually one of chester b's favorite bands, there's a video of him trying to sing along with the intro to heavydirtysoul, which is very fast and smooth.

[@bryankarst3881]

Live shows are amazing....but they are live shows. Studio takes are the right way to hear songs...especialy for the first time!! 614 COlumbus Ohio can I get an O H?!!

[@kae837]

i would absolutely love for you to react to “The Outside” by twentyonepilots, it’s on their newest album scaled and icy!

[@macacasylvanus2]

Yes go to an album aaa

[@arbarnet24]

Deep dive the albums Vessel and Blurryface. Others are great but this is where one should start.

[@bisliglebronsky]

start from vessel, and I really suggest you to listen to Guns for hands and house of gold

[@turkish1x]

Try "Forever" by Dropkick Murphys

[@johndough3809]

Bruh idk why you insist on doing live versions for songs with music videos… is it cause of copyright? You want to see how the band is live? 9/10 the live show performance aren’t as good as the studio versions.

[@dejahwilson268]

Twenty One Pilots just might be the exception to this general rule. Them live is usually better, as he writes the songs to be played live, not for radio or videos. The reason for watching the videos with this band is that they tell a story. Edited to add- the band produced live videos 😉 not some random persons live video from a show with random fangirl screams right in the microphone

[@landen6611]

you should listen to albums of them

[@chasepence4950]

If you do an album, you should do vessel.

[@katstorm13]

Haha first you say similar to Linkin Park, then mention a guy who can sing with the occasional rap thrown in....cut immediately to Tyler yelling/screaming, something Chester also excelled at.

[@Will-uv4mg]

You want to see his skills? React to Levitate from their Trench album. Enjoy!

[@Will-uv4mg]

Or, even better, do the live version of Fall Away featuring Dr. Blum...he's so crazy!

[@kenny1111]

holding on to you talks about Matthew 14:22-33

[@GWHinCA]

Just came across this because I've seen you do some other reactions I really love, but had to stop it right away. I know its your channel so you do what you do, but IMO it's a serious error to do an initial reaction to a live version of a song unless specifically requested to react to that version. If you want the TRUEST PUREST essence of what that artist is trying to convey, react to the original video. While there are artists that can pull it off live, or even sound better live, they are the exception. If you were reviewing the original video, I'd watch. Humor me, just as an "experiment", & re-do your reaction using the original 21 Pilots video and compare the viewing statistics. Not only that, but I think you'll love his/their vision for the song. 21 Pilot videos (some at least) are awesome. I personally love several of their live videos too, but for every one, I only watched the live performance after viewing the original video to "set the bar" so to speak. Again, my opinion only. I enjoy your reactions so I hope you'll consider it. Videos I highly reccomend besides this original video would be Car Radio, Ride, Guns For Hands & Heavydirtysoul. Live try Fall Away (featuring Dr. Blum of MisterWives) and Heavydirtysoul (Live at Fox Theatre).

[@58palos]

You should listen to Blasphemy when Tyler Joseph was doing solo stuff before forming the band.

[@Voltagio57]

Do yourself a favor, watch the actual music videos. They tell a much more complete story

[@rachaeljoelldaley4726]

I would love to see Mr. Boyd react to Do re mi... by Blackbear and Gucci Mane. Just to see his reaction, honestly.

[@billspivey6919]

Try song- Jumpsuit

[@Bakemer94]

Please react to some studio stuff.
