Gunship asked the fans to recreate their favorite movies from the 80s and 90s and send them in.. and that's what they did.. Alex also asked the fans to call their hotline and leave uplifting messages for them to use in this song.. They are an amazing band...

When i listened to this for the first time, and i heard "its just a bad day, not a bad life," it hit so hard in my core that i felt myself tearing up. It was one of those things you didn't realize you badly needed to hear.

Didn’t see it mentioned in the comments but Gunship was created as sort of a side project of Fightstar, a post hardcore/metal band i highly recommend. Their last album was a masterpiece

Gunship provided a suggestion of movies and scenes to recreate as a starter, and asked the fans to choose any of them and re-create them any way they wanted. They were also free to record any other 80's movie scenes, but the original list was the main focus.

Thank you for reacting to Gunship again. I am so glad to see this genre of music (Synthwave) get more exposure. Gunship has the best videos, but another great band from this Genre is "The Midnight" I would love to see you react to anything from the Midnight but The song Vampires off of the Nocturnal album is a great starter song.

New to the channel. Seen a few Midnight reacts and now here. Not sure how well this comment will go but the song and video are also an anti self h**m message. That is why the messages are about just a bad day and becoming stronger or not letting haters get you down. That's why you were finding it so emotional once those messages ra eplaying. As someone constantly struggling with such issues this song does help ne and hopefully others who are hearing it either at release or new through videos such as yours. Keep up the good reactions and I hope to hear a lot mroe synthwave as well as maybe more rock type stuff like Muse.
