Greta Van Fleet "The Weight Of Dreams" Reaction

So great to hear they love it as much as I do

[@macynavarro9781]

This is the best band on the planet right now. Can't wait to see them live.

I can' t imagine this song and Broken Bells played live .... they'' ll take the half of the concert !! These guys are gems ❤

They have played this song live before and damn they did such a great job w it :,) it was called black flag exposition before I believe lmaoo

This album has to be the best album in the last 10 years easy. It’s been a year and I still listen to it every time I’m in my car or any other time I get to listen to music. So freaking awesome

[@christophertola3947]

The acoustic ending gives me chills every time

[@seacrestboxers1787]

Hey guys, hope you get this as the reaction in 2 years old. Did you see that Jake has just won the poll for best guitar solo of the 21st century for this track. Amazing stuff he had the likes of Slash behind him to boot. ❤❤

[@InfinityGrooves]

We sure did see that and we mentioned it in one of our videos he's a great guitarist and will only get better. But to be in the same grouping as slash and some of the other greats is saying a lot.

[@phoenixcazee3976]

They are my age and I can't get past how insanely talented they are. Before hearing them my favorite band to listen to was Rush. You can't say you love pure music without respecting the sounds of either Rush or Greta. They're so wildly different but pure, complex, and intoxicating.

[@clemthegoat8034]

They actually sounded very Rush-esqe at times in this album! Love that comparison. They’re further from LZ now and have become more prog-rock tbh.

[@Teezzer13]

@@clemthegoat8034 ive always thought the singer sounds like a blend of Geddy Lee and Robert Plant

[@billholder1330]

@@clemthegoat8034 Yeah, exactly, like a modern rush but with some other influences, I hear maybe some Journey, Styx, or even Toto in there (all huge compliments), but in a heavier, proggier version. They're definitely finding their own space and sound, way beyond being an LZ clone...

[@billholder1330]

@@Teezzer13 More like Geddy x Freddie (Mercury) lately, the RP influence isn't as obvious any more....

[@ellislee4333]

@@billholder1330 I have to agree, their first album, maybe a little of the second, definitely carried some zeppelin vibes, but the Battle at Garden’s Gate was so soulful and way different

Saw them live, everything they played was unreal, top 3 concert of all time for me. They put on a damn good show and sound better live.

[@jazedrchs5182]

Same here! I'm an old dude, I've been to hundreds of shows, but their show was the most fantastic, warm, overwhelming, upsetting show I've been to.. the best night of my life.

[@kbusby4824]

This will make a great 25 minute extended jam as an encore. Looking forward to live shows again! I agree no one touches them at this moment.

[@pablofloresrubilar]

They’ve already played this song live, search for Black Flag Exposition, it‘s a song they’ve been playing live but never recorded it, now they just changed the lyrics and the name, however, both are sick

[@kindking8009]

For a long time I've felt like GVF is a perfect fit to do the opening theme for a James Bond movie and this songs just cements my belief. Maybe that's what Josh meant when he said this album is "cinematic".

[@felicialally5703]

definitely agree! the mood of a few of their songs would suit Bond. for me especially broken bells.

[@tjfoley7997]

This is without a doubt their Freebird, there will obviously never be another Freebird but it was an awesome power ballad early on into an incredible long solo at the end

[@scrubub76]

This is rarely mentioned that the being brothers, two being twins, have a special bond and musical ability that melds so well together. You here instances where twins have been separated at birth and if brought back together later in life. The find out they think and do a lot things similar sometimes exact. The similarities are good, but they all have each have an individual creativity that I believe comes easy to all of them, which just works and makes them unique. And Danny shouldn't be forgotten is like the fourth brother. There are no egos here that I see with any of them. A family will battle together!!

[@cathybrunson2547]

Jake totally and completely loses his mind here and I go with hm every single time I listen to it! And Josh.....the vocals! Outstanding in every way!

[@desertmarcos]

As a former corn fed SW Michigan native, I'm so proud of the boys. Their talent, humility during interviews and progress they're making defies their years. This album KICKS ASS!

[@MrBigjnva]

Great choice. That took me on a musical journey. Felt like I was listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd on that solo. Just imagine how they will sound if they could get a full orchestra backing them. I’d fly to the moon to hear that!! Keep up the great work!

[@annagion3526]

I love Greta Van Fleet. Have seen them 3 times live, and this song is on repeat. You’re so right. This album is one that you can just let play all the way through again and again. I listened to it for about 2-3 hours straight the other day while working. I recently found your channel and really enjoy watching you guys react. Great, positive energy. Looking forward to the other Greta reactions! Take care!

People who think GVF is a bad band know nothing about music.

[@mycatbitemeee6844]

Don't agree. Musical taste and preference do not neceserally indicate anything about the individual's musical knowledge. In fact, my music teacher listens to many types of music, with metal not being one he particularly likes. Still, the man knows his shit. Question, do you mean don't like their music? or just think they are bad as musicians? I could have gotten you wrong and mansplained a bit there, sorry if I did.

I’ve been a huge fan for over 3 years now and this band has been my life for just about that long. They played this song for about 2 years during their live shows first as a cover and then under the moniker Black Flag Exposition. Seeing you guys react to a song I’ve been obsessed with for so long, a song that I’ve heard undergo so many changes and finally flourish into their own masterpiece makes me so so happy.

Hi Monk and Joker! I just subbed because I thought I'd already done so, but here nor there, I am now, hehe! Some of us fans in The Peaceful Army of Greta Van Fleet call Jake "Guitar Man" because he makes us girls cry with his beautiful solos. Together with his identical twin Josh's incredible voice, their younger brother Sam's skillful keys and bass, and Danny's killer drums, they are pretty much unstoppable. I agree, they're going to be around for a good while. You are in for a treat with the rest of the album too, can't wait for you to hear it! It demands to be listened to with a good pair of headphones, like you guys do, or on a good stereo cranked up 😏. Almost forgot...you guys are awesome!

[@longcastle4863]

Love Josh of course, but Jake is really starting to catch my attention more and more and Sam and Danny as well... As the musicianship and tightness of the band when performing live, their ability to entertain is just becoming phenomenal, epic, mind blowing etc... better and better all the time. But even beyond all that what I'm really starting to catch is the power of the song writing: lyrics with real poetry behind them and meaning and power combined with just the right kind of melodies and riffs and baselines and drum beats and breakdowns and flights into psychedelic heights... ..... But I should stop myself before I get carried away : )
