Flobots - Handlebars (Official Video) Reaction

[@BSPT12]

This always gives me goosebumps. And with the video, seeing the friends’ stories along with it… maaaaaan…

[@DocRobert]

I always thought Flobots shoulda blown up bigger. They’re so dope, and I don’t think they have a bad song. Check out the track “Mayday!”.

[@42calking53]

I agree

[@sp11raps71]

Mayday is amazing

[@alldud13]

it’s always been their choice they could’ve been more popular but they stuck to their roots

[@echopryme]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much deeper than 90% of people understand!!!

[@jonathansmith8672]

This song has been stuck with me since I was a toddler. My mom would play this song on the radio when she drove me to school in the morning from preschool to 2nd grade. And it's been one of my nostalgic favorites. And as I grew up, what really hit me was the meaning behind this classic: The song tells about how creative, powerful, or destructive men can be depending on the paths we choose at life. It's about what we choose to do at life once we go our own ways. It starts off with two childhood friends riding bikes, then they go separate ways. One friend is working in the community and cares about people, while the other friend is working in the corporate world and cares about power. Then when the corporate friend ends up becoming a powerful leader taking over the world, the community friend leads a rebellion against his former friend. And the song ends with two friends clashing at each other as the community friend gets shot and killed while the corporate friend sees this and starts to regret his corrupt actions. Good reaction, though! 👍

Always get chills listening to this song, with the brass and the guitar on the second verse. this song is dark asf and so is the video

[@DJ_Benzy]

This song even more relevant now...talk about vision

[@bri9498]

Even more today!

[@sikksotoo]

Thank you for not taking a shit on this track reaction like several other reactors. It seems to be impossible to understand the track without the video. And it is a trumpet. My favorite remix track I ever did is over this instrumental. Got a shoutout from Flobots on IG for it LOL

[@bawitback]

'..I can hand out a million vaccinations' relative af

[@TeezMcGee]

Man my face tilted on that part 😂

[@michalalica8056]

They also have a song called quarantine if you didn’t know kinda crazy lol

[@kidchrist35]

"Or let 'em all die in exasperation". Don't forget the punchline to that set up line.

[@colerod8560]

It ain’t just trump and COVID, he kinda exposed the past twenty years. Trump wasn’t the bombing president, Obama loved his drones, like seriously

[@SteadyPlaying]

@@colerod8560 nah true, trump was the golfing/facist president lmao

[@DB78888]

This song was huge on the radio. Definitely recognized this throughout my childhood. To me it also spoke to the breakout of transparency and progression. This came out when bush was in his second term

[@johnandersonii]

What I love about this is he goes up this ladder, and leaves you thinking ... at what point do you no longer trust humans with this kind of power?

[@Sagitarria]

This song is about _hubris and power_

[@marquisdelafayette1929]

No handlebars I’ve always thought of as similar to the “wheels coming off” in that all checks and balances are gone. Clearly more poignant than ever. Someone leading the nation “with a microphone…” 🤔 and letting people die rather than give out vaccines? Like damn.

[@TandemKnights]

Damn, forgot how sick this song is, thanks for the reminder!!

[@jaykubisanidiot8657]

This song is a metaphor for growing up.. but not just for an individual, its alos a metaphor for our entire species.... Enjoy life while its here...

[@rhodaj4215]

Hi Teez 2 people growing up one takes one path and the other takes a corrupt path all about power and control is what I’m getting 👍❤️👍

[@michaelking9568]

I totally forgot about these guys. Really good album. If I remember right they were a group of college friends down in Austin Texas.

[@stich21]

Heard that song so many times but never listened to the message. Hits hard.

[@ControversyCaution]

First video of yours I’ve watched, It cool seeing you do such a good job editing with minimal equipment here Then checked out to new stuff and clearly you got KZbin money and invested it back it 🤝🏻 I like that, I’m tryna go on my own KZbin journey like that rn

[@seanmiller7664]

Fight With Tools. the WHOLE damn thing :+)

[@knockemdeadkid654]

My, G! Finally, someone who gets it. Nuff said, my man, subbed.

[@drummonkey9291]

Such a clever song. Instrumental is strong too. That trumpet 🔥

[@michelemichele3375]

Not crazy, Bruh. That’s how it go. Control a country with a microphone. 🤪 Thanks for this great request!

[@CA5124]

Absolute Banger of a track! Powerful Relevant message too ! 🔥

[@empdisaster10]

I love that you got so into it you kicked it out of mini player to enjoy it better

[@VinzClorthokeymasterofGozer]

Loved this when it came out. Still good. Still way too real. Definitely trumpet, btw.

[@brianhill3440]

Duuuude You’ve hit my Jam from days n daze, hey bondage, and flobots. Damn. I’m coming back wit some more requests

[@N_D_H]

Two years and it isn't blocked from search, I think you're good.

[@JonnyPhive]

Great to see Flobots getting some recognition. Check out their track White Flag Warriors. It feat. Tim McElrath from Rise Against. Also checkout Flipsyde. They're another rap rock style band with a latin flavor. Very socially conscious like Rage. Check their tracks US History & Someday.

[@johnroepenack5373]

Appreciate you bro! I hope you're staying safe! All the best!

[@donericdisante]

Holy shit. You went the whole video without pausing. You just earned a subscriber for that

[@robtintelnot9107]

This is a classic. Thank you!

You should check out there song Anna Braden it’s basically a short rap biography on this lady who was a civil rights activist flobots are super slept on sadly

[@andrewhenderson6544]

The mainstream rap is talking about spinning someone's block while this is talking about ending the planet in a holoc@ust. This song is just in a different scale than everyone else anyone has ever done.

[@MajorCanada]

This song is the definition of a one hit wonder. Very very very good track.

[@inkoinfinity2]

Nice reaction and I think your room is cool, nice Beatles poster

[@maine420grow]

I used to listen to this a bunch. Great song

[@deadbeat6232]

such a good reaction! keep up the great work!

[@enochancient9931]

Great reaction

[@deejayturtle]

Yeah Teez I think that was a trumpet. I thought you had did this already. This a BANGER, no doubt.

[@TeezMcGee]

💯🔥🔥🔥 got you coming up

Look Ma, no hands! I built this suit of armor with wooden arms.

The song is ooooold too lol

[@atheist101]

The meaning of this song has changed with all that's been going on and that's one more thing that makes it so amazing

[@richardkail7976]

They just released a new song too and it SMACKS check out Flobots - Roshni

[@jda79]

Check out Rise of you want to here more of these dudes

[@Gnomojo]

As an independent trumpet player it’s nice to have cover bands hire me to play this one song and leave.

[@Lance-The-BoS-Lancer]

Listen to "Panacea For The Poison"

[@scottieboy7853]

It's because Eminem was the face of white rap

[@rookis25]

thats jonny 5

[@Malfehzan]

It's their most "popular" song, but there are better ones. And them roasting goldylock Logan Paul for defacing their song (this very one you listened to) is the classiest ass kickin' you'll ever witness.
