MAN ON TOP OF THE WORLD!! Tom MacDonald - Don't Look Down *Reaction*

[@madamred2061]

[@st2110]

HUMILITY is his heart... I think he ended it that way to silently acknowledge those of us who have raised him up! He knows we are here and we love him... we need no words! Great reaction!

[@mgentles3]

That ending looks like two things to me. One is sheer exhaustion. The other is the state of mind he's nearly always in, which is self-doubt, self-hate, insecurity and fear/pain. Token HAS put some sneaky disses of Tom into tracks, so he may be one of the ones Tom is talking to. I don't think anybody knows who all Tom has seen or heard attacking him but himself and whoever they are (fake fans, haters, other rappers) he's telling them to crawl back in their holes because he ain't trying to hear that shit.

[@424stormygirl]

What I see is sheer exhaustion but also a sense of relief that he got that off his chest. I agree whole heartedly with everything else you said.

Yes Tom MacDonald is definitely flexing on this song and the man has every right to be. The blood, Sweat and Tears he's put in over the years. 💪💪 If nobody likes it Tom's has two middle fingers for you and no time for a high-five. 🤘😎 #hangovergang

[@realPenrodPooch]

He was definitely NOT dissing YT rappers. He's just not one of them and won't be categorized as such.

[@_ParkerJackson_]

This is Tom at his absolute best. Even the ones who typical hate are feeling this track! Great reaction, my brother! 💪🏽

[@gottablulu]

This was a LONG time coming. He's calling out ALL the HATERS and FAKE FANS. Great reaction. Keep them coming.

[@stevenfarrell6517]

Tom lays it all out on this one. Hes F’in awesome!

[@altenberg-greifenstein]

You do not understand that he is looking down on everyone, including you. Funny how people always assume that someone is talking bad about people in general but surely not about them, they must be the exception. No, you are not. Do you think people say such for fun and not becauser they really think that way?

[@xdaniedx]

At the end when he yells, "I am a superstar" That's a reference to a post he made on Instagram back in 2016. It's the first picture of Tom and Nova when they first got together. And he wrote in the caption, "one day we will be superstars"

[@twenty6silent327]

He also looks down at the end of his verse. Before he starts laughing. Like the most obvious look down. Yet nobody seems to notice this.

[@davidarmour7766]

A thousand yard stare doesn’t look any direction, it looks past what is there and looks within. It’s called reflection.

[@artissubjective6279]

He talked to us about how his depression causes him to think low on himself, and said that he won the battle against himself long enough to write this song. He is his only competition, I think the end was symbolic of his depression. #HOG

8:30 TheThirdEarnest His reaction to this track was the best 😂 he was so fidgety in front of the camera 😅

[@OnyxKwina]

No it’s there for a reason. Note how he started. The one thing he’s scared of is his own mental state. He’s still scared of the fall. He’s not scared of ANYONE below because the only one who could make him fall are the demons within him. Also noted birds, birds can’t fly over a certain altitude wo flapping their wings. He’s so high it’s freezing but Below Bodies are burning. This song really hits deep if you read the lyrics as poetry. Crazy song. You can feel the passion in it.

[@editorjeannie2318]

Maybe don’t look down also means stop looking down at other people

[@heatherll6810]

FIRE!!! Tom’s best to date in my opinion. Tom EARNED the right to make this record. Hhmmm, never saw anyone say that about the ending and didn’t think anything about it myself. When I look at it I see him showing a humble side after all the flexing. I dunno but it’s an interesting point. Look at Panos catching all the details👏👏✌️HOG4EVER 🔥❤️🔥

[@leonaprice9028]

I have watched many reactors to this song and you are the only one who has noticed he looks down at the end! AWESOME job dude!

It's demon tom vs. good tom. It's in all of his videos. It's a struggle between the two

[@shannonsolomon3015]

This is my favorite song by him so far. That grit and rasp in his voice is bone chilling. Nova needs some recognition for her work also. She did amazing with this video simplistic as it was it was impactful. Amazing job both of them.

[@tanya41277]

Knight and Ernest both actually didn't hate on this track. Shocked the crap out of me! I thought it was just the new outro. But maybe it's a sign of no matter how much he talks himself up he's still exhausted and self doubting at the end of the day.

Yeah hangover gang is always telling Tom to please take a vacation to please just go do something he enjoys but he said what we don’t understand is he enjoys working he enjoys progress he said “you’ve never seen a more miserable Tom MacDonald than a Tom MacDonald that’s on vacation”. He really is traumatized from his previous life I think he has PTSD from it because he’s so terrified of going back. But he also said he misses bumper cars and skiing.😂

His demons are taunting him to look down...message keep your eyes on the prize! Don't get distracted dont let anything pull you back, just keep going and looking up!

[@rictus7222]

I think the fact that he was triggered to go off like he did in the end realizing it and looking down not in shame but kind of disappointed in himself that he allowed it to affect him. Cuz remember we talked about in previous videos The DaVinci Code in his lyrics meaning there's messages there that you're not seeing until you see it

He definitely directed this to at least two people. He said. "I don't name names," so you'll need to figure out who some of those lines were directed at yourself. Or, you know, read through your comment section. He wasn't talking about ALL KZbin rappers because he is cool with a few of them, Knox being one... and supposedly he and Crypt are cool now. You'll have to go watch Crypt's reaction.

I think we have to realize that when Tom is doing a song he gets into the character of the song yes a lot of his songs are personal but say take white trash for instance he didn't grow up white trash but he put himself in that character so he could be able to understand and represent that better similar to what an actor does now Tom wants to have the confidence to not look down but in the end when he does look down to me that's like reminding us that Tom is just like us so putting him in Superstar status can be highly stressful. But that's just my take.
