Girl you must be a mom

[@user-wm5fn7ws9d]

Song " Leaving Heaven" really goes in on how he feels about his dad.

[@FreyaReacts]

Thank you for that! Leaving Heaven is officially on the list! Can't wait to check it out! Wow, what a wild ride!!!

[@gonzoyork1908]

Hii ​@@FreyaReacts there's a song of Eminem call Kim he wrote it because there we're getting separating and the song is very heavy to mustard. and the sequel is even more It's called 97 Bonnie and Clyde am not. going to spoil what he raps on the song Kim but it's what he was feeling at that time. There's a forgiving song to his ex wife called BAD Husband..but listen to Kim and the sequel 97 Bonnie and Clyde.

[@PenneySounds]

​@@FreyaReacts"Rhyme Or Reason" is another one where he talks about his father.

[@FreyaReacts]

@@PenneySounds Thanks, again! Just wanted to let you know "Leaving Heaven" should be up soon -- I hope you get a chance to check it out and enjoy it (a little, lol!) Much appreciated! 💛

[@BonziJones]

This was just growth.... He wrote this song way after he matured and finally accepted it for what it was...

[@FreyaReacts]

Yeah, you can definitely feel that in the song. And the power of forgiveness -- wow. Its an amazing song. So deep.

[@aliselynch]

I've cried to this song quite often. My mother still struggles with addiction, swings back and forth between sobriety and ridiculous, emotionally taxing binges for a few months. I appreciate Eminem for using his art as therapy, and as a means to communicate his feelings, so many of us know we're not alone because of it.

[@tinytoot12]

You’re not alone stay strong

[@kittenklub1964]

I think 'Cleaning Out My Closest' is one of his best songs - it's his story & it needed to be told. It was part of his journey to be generous enough to pen 'Headlights' for his mother, but also for himself.

[@DaP84]

Eminem was ironic when he said he guessed his father had trouble keeping up with every adress. Heard Eminem's mother had somewhat regular contact with his father. Never spoke to eminem though. And Eminem sent him letters that was always returned unopened. Later in life when Em had made it big, his father randomly appeared in TV interview, where he plrtrayed himself like a proud dad and brought baby pictures of Em. Next I'd suggest the song "Leaving Heaven" that Eminem made after his father's passing in 2019

[@randykelley6826]

Eminem always says how he feels and makes no apologies, especially anything he says that's reality in his personal world.

[@MohamadNadi]

This video brought me to tears it shows a lot of growth and maturity for Marsha to write this

[@loneb9759]

I love that you are starting of with these really personal songs - they let you know who he is outside of the more "fun songs". If you search for "a little shady " on youtube, you will see his daughter as she is now. She has a podcast, and has had both of her sisters, and her uncle (Em's brother, Nathan) on the show😊

[@FreyaReacts]

Thank you so much. That's awesome info! Much appreciated! A Little Shady Podcast -- I'll have to find time to check that out. Much appreciated! 💛

[@OliOmen]

Eminem really hits home for me, this one in particular. That's the song that's like.. probably the most sentimental one he's done besides the song he made for Hailie

[@FreyaReacts]

Yeah, I'm finding that he really hits home for me too. I'm a bit at a loss with it but, have been surprised in the best possible way. Thanks so much for being here and taking a moment to comment! Much appreciated!

[@JWolf568]

Eminem’s music really helped me get through my childhood. My father left when I was 2 so it was just me and my mother for years. Then she remarried and I got put on a back burner. This song resonates even more though because I was put in a psych ward on a Christmas Eve. And now at 35 years old, my mother and I have a very healthy relationship. We’re both in a better place and we can communicate beautifully. I really cherish the music Eminem was able to offer the world for people like me during that entire era.

[@shanecydrus6591]

The line where he is talking about owning a collection of maps and following his kids to the edge of the atlas, is him referring to an article his father had published in a news paper where he basically made the excuse that he didn't know where Debbi had moved to with him and how to get in touch with them.

[@iwantmoney1239]

Nathan is his little brother who he got out of foster care and adopted. Edit: not the same nate as he singer on this song

[@thenextbigthing187X]

You have to listen to “Leaving Heaven”, it’s about his father

[@FreyaReacts]

Thank you! Got it! Leaving Heaven, officially on the list. Can't wait to check it out! Much appreciated.

[@kylespeirs6510]

Girl keep the Eminem reactions

[@moparlinke]

Love you reactions to Eminems songs...I love that he often sings/rap about his life

[@blindangel7472]

Now we need Kim, 97’ Bonnie and Clyde and then bad husband after those 2

[@blindangel7472]

Also great reaction, I love how you actually feel these songs and I hope to see you continue your em journey, and later new artist possibly 21 pilots, starting with car radio. Keep it up for sure

[@Nathanrichards1370]

​@@blindangel7472this song brought a tear to my eye

[@FreyaReacts]

@@blindangel7472 Thank you so much! Glad to hear I'm doing something sorta right here, lol. Thank you for your suggestions. I have to really give some thought to doing those songs. Bad Husband -- on the list no problem at all. But, if you didn't hear in one of my video's I dated/ lived with a "Stanley" like the person depicted int he video. He weaponized that name and song. Hmmmm.....gotta think if I can do those.

[@MrThankman360]

Twenty year timeframe between Cleaning Out My Closet and this song. Wisdom and forgiveness comes with time and age.

[@mikeyturner4832]

I think it's 11 years to be fair . One 2002 and one 2013

[@satoxzero8975]

I understand how it is with life and relationships. Plenty of sorry, forgiveness, though also good things like hello and thank you. Just have to remember to keep doing our best despite the struggles or circumstances. Even if our best isn't ideal.

[@Spectrum0122]

Fun fact. The music video was released on mothers day

[@jax9763]

Loving these reactions! If you want to hear him actually sing, check out "Hailie's song"

[@FreyaReacts]

Thanks so much! Hailie's Song -- officially on the list! Please hang in there with me...it got long very fast but, I can't wait to hear this! Much appreciated!

[@williamlandys8035]

Crazy in love by em

[@iulia.bianca.b]

Nate Ruess is never ever recognized by anyone on this song, it's so funny 😅 He's the lead vocalist for a band named "Fun" that was quite famous for a short while some years back. Like a one hit wonder type of deal. Their most famous song was called "We are young". Everybody knows it, and his voice is really unmistakable. I always knew it was him. Lyrics go like this: "Give me a second I I need to get my story straight My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State My lover she's waiting for me just across the bar My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar, and I know I gave it to you months ago I know you're trying to forget But between the drinks and subtle things The holes in my apologies, you know I'm trying hard to take it back So if by the time the bar closes And you feel like falling down I'll carry you home Tonight We are young So let's set the world on fire We can burn brighter than the sun."

[@timchouinard6903]

He has more songs about his Mom other than " Cleaning out my Closet " .... Please get to his song that is aptly named " My Mom " .... It is done a little bit more in jest , and is almost comical .... But there's a lot of truth behind it , and a lot to do with him becoming a drug addict because of her ... Btw , I just started watching your reactions , and I already know that you have a Uniquely Beautiful Soul ❤️🌏🌄 .... I'm the same way , I feel pain and sorrow for other people so much that it hurts 😞 .... Please keep reacting to EM , and I will absolutely be watching ✌️

[@Nokturnl4891]

I was thinking, all these tough songs you've been going through you should have some fun ones. One that popped in my head right away was "My Dad's Gone Crazy" off his 3rd major release "The Eminem Show". Not only was it a fun song but he also featured his daughter Hailie and made her the youngest R&B chart entrant ever at only 6 years old and some change in the Guinness World Records.

[@stevolfc7629]

Hey freya keep up the good work refreshing to see someone actually getting involved in their reactions most reactors now listen to the song several times before actually making the video always stick to the real way you do it and your channel will grow insanely fast Eminem - not afraid It’s about him finally becoming sober and changing his life

[@sovuthykang4005]

Great reaction! Four songs i think you'll like, hailey song, sing for the moment (i suggest the lyric video), rhyme or reason, and Legacy 😊

[@shorty35916]

If I'm not mistaken, this video was released on Mothers Day.

[@FreyaReacts]

omg, I bet it was. Thanks for sharing!

[@miguelolivo5895]

It was, I remember like it was yesterday.

[@jjellybelmo4]

Uhh yeah i can image. I was blamed for years that my dad left. But they were married and divorced before my mom was even pregnant. This song is so how my life went and still is.

[@NOBODIES_XIII]

Also the music video was director by Spike Lee

[@gustavomcmillian7360]

It’s crazy listening to it back to back but there was damn near a 10 year gap between these songs

[@mansoryO]

Oh my goodness, yes. Forgiveness. Such a powerful message.

@@FreyaReacts Your More Than Welcome. I know I couldn’t believe that Em came out with Headlights 11 years after he brought out Cleaning Out My Closet. Yes I think that Em getting off the drugs and going to counselling really helped him understand why his Mother did what she did. Headlights it’s one of My Fav Songs from Em. I can’t help but Cry listening to Headlights as I Lost My Mum and hearing Em say he forgives and and still Loves his Mum after everything she did to him is so Beautiful. The bit where he says Thank You for being My Mum and My Dad is Beautiful too. Your Welcome for the suggestions I thought I would let You know what albums they are on as well.

[@Theos1919]

I love your reactions so far, I binged all of them in a day lo, but I think we should take a detour from the sad stuff and give your heart a break lol. I'd also like to see somore more newer eminem reactions, I know some want you to do the old stuff first but since you were with someone who was an eminem fan you already know the sound. First on the list I recommend the SEQUEL to Stan. It's from new Eminem and was on the Marshal Mathers LP 2, it's still a bit of a heavy song but I think you should react to it while Stan is still fresh in your mind. Then something more motivating and upbeat like "Till I Collapse" or Survival

[@Theos1919]

I realised I didn’t say the name of the sequel to stan, my bad, it’s called Bad Guy

Just did "Bad Guy" today so that will be up soon. But, yeah, definitely need a detour and I know he has so many other sides to him! And thank you so much for your encouragement - I can't believe you binged my videos - that has to be the best thing I've heard (other than Eminem) in a long time! Much appreciated!
