NOFX - The Decline Live w/ Baz's Orchestra - Reaction / Review

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

I may have cried a bit during that part of the song where they play the song. It's beautiful.

[@eliyot5126]

It's really a masterpiece.

[@pablojimenezquiroz9362]

this song... this song, man,,, i've heard it for the first time when i was a child, now i'm 32 and understand everything about the lyrics, everything they say is true, and that is some kind of deep sadness... we cannot change the control of this system, this culture, this status quo, this type of life..., everything is out of hands... but well, hope you're doing great with these hard but truthful things, Cheers from Chile and LONG LIVE TO NOFX... The Decline, or should we say... the present decline...

[@jeremyshartzer261]

The Decline has been my favorite song in existence ever since I first heard it in high school. I listened to it over and over again until I had all the lyrics wrote down in my punk folder lol. Wasn't able to look them up at the time. Watching this orchestra version gave me the chills and water may have came out of my face too man, so don't sweat it :)

[@galacticriminalx]

Spanks for the punk rock solidarity brah

[@didma]

u like megaman and nofx, epic win man, epic win.

[@sunkendrinker2240]

Me:did you just wipe tears from your eyes? Galactic Criminal:holds up middle finger.

[@galacticriminalx]

Literal first time seeing it live in ANY fashion

[@pauliophonic]

@@galacticriminalx Your reaction to that first note was the same as mine. God damn I love this song.

[@kaxkalv]

This is what KZbin should be about! Great music and a dude in his mancave just being a dude!

[@romerjason]

Tears are real... and pure joy, goosebumps and angst all nestled together as one.

[@fatm1ke]

im from Argentina the first time they came they played The decline... brought me to tears

[@CesarNobrega1971]

Man, absolutely fantastic! I got goosebumps from beginning to end of the song. I was touched like you, brother. My day just got better. This is Cesar from Brazil. Big hug ... What a react !!

[@justingomez8149]

There is no shame involved in shedding a tear to this song it's fkn art

[@turnbuckleluccibonnadouchi9843]

This is my first reaction vids of yours I’ve seen. Great song, great job, and good on you for enjoying the song without interruption as a fan. I even got a little misty at your faces. I’ll check out more. Hell yeah.

[@justingomez8149]

9:55 that's the show of a true musical music appreciation

[@zhafrantan6934]

It brought tears to my eyes too~

[@LeighDZ87]

I feel you brother. NOFX reminds me of h being a carefree 18 year old with my friends going to shows.

[@zachary9009]

The best song I've ever heard. Brings tears to my eyes 23 years later.

[@petervasquez4135]

This song was a masterpiece in 1999 and this is now a master masterpiece 2020 always makes me tear up beautiful song

[@thesoundofviolencepodcast]

This is pretty much my exact reaction the first time I saw it. Grew up playing it since middleschool and it makes me cry damn near everytime

[@petervasquez4135]

I feel you bro it always brings me to tears .. us I just subscribed to your channel ..

[@wilfburt6641]

Just as relevant now as it ever has been. What an incredible song. You can tell how proud fat mike is of this masterpiece on this recording.

[@AchimE]

Great reaction, I got tears too! Did you notice how happy the band and especially Fat Mike was? Awesome! 👍🤘

[@BloodClanResurrection]

Your reaction was the exact same I had. So badass. It puts a smile on my fucking face every time!

[@jasonolson3813]

i teach high school and i play the NOFX birthday song for everyone of my students. this was a great reaction video!!!

[@foetalmonsieur]

its been awhile since i had shivers listening to a song

[@designbydaneinstallations]

Yep, I bought the cd it the day it came out…I still tear up every time I listen to it. It’s the most incredible song ever.

[@farquad_rocks]

I fucking cried That was so damned EPIC

[@mikecynic5167]

It's like watching two entirely different groups of band nerds get together and do what they love doing. Pretty cool to see the orchestra getting into it. They looked like they were having a good fucking time too. You could see that 'professional' image crack a bit. Good shit.

[@galacticriminalx]

@@mikecynic5167 And I love you too

[@florianfuchs8736]

you can sing the whole song....props!

[@galacticriminalx]

Fuckin love that shit dude! 😎

[@justingomez8149]

He knows more of the lyrics than fat Mike😅

[@1983maharba]

Man, you really get into it and I love it! For me, there is no other way to listen to this master piece than the way you did it. New suscriber here. Greetings from Spain

[@Avliv_Satan]

I like a bit of punk every now and then, I think it's a shame that I haven't really gotten into NOFX before, because this right here is good shit.

[@luiscordeiro3335]

I thought I was the only one who cried listening to this song. What a joy to know that there is a group of human beings like me.

[@kevinreverence2797]

The decline, song with mega goosebumps for me.

[@Crunchatize_Me_Senpai]

Fuckin crazy man, I’ve never seen this. What an awesome version. And it’s really cool to see someone else get as psyched about this as I am.

[@fatmikedude]

Thanks for watching! It was fun to watch you get emotional. I do too.

[@Alvimardelsur]

You write the best fucking song ever, love nofx

[@gregboyle8746]

Thank you for an amazing reaction video. I watched this earlier today and was balling lol that led me to your video. Fucking beautiful.

[@Sweep_The_Leg_Johnny]

French Horn comin in strong at the beginning! I was a french horn player in high school, and even played it in a ska band we had (was a 17 pc band...Mr. Pooper & the Booty Mackers, we didnt go far..lol). Fat Mike is filling that dainty summer dress out very nice!

[@MrJimbobdudeguy]

Thanks for the post up bro, im not old but this oldschool track to me was very welcome tonite.

[@gurudave]

Will be grabbing the vinyl for sure. Seen it twice in Australia many years ago. The greatest punk rock song ever written without doubt.

[@andyschieltz5019]

I was there, Red Rocks, fucking epic.

[@colina1330]

This version is SO good. I probably watch it about once every couple of weeks. I know Fat Mike overdubbed the vocals (or at least some of them), but still....what a masterpiece. There's so many moments where he's just beaming with pride, and rightfully so.

[@jasonmordecai8212]

When I saw them it was 2000 summer and they didn’t play it live I was gutted 😂

[@patrickallen4518]

Lmao! They were supposed to be at the Santa Cruz memorial day concert. They weren't. But I did see Bradley from Sublime take a nose dive off the stage! Lol

[@donhems4487]

Love ya dude, keep up the vids!

[@leadmutton9854]

Dude, I get emotional at the same times!, so proud of our boys, I know this was a while ago but ya know 😁

[@garyb8859]

Heard it live, not long after it came out. Still blew my mind they'd play an 18 minute song live.

[@JordyAbsurd]

I had a similar feeling. Being Red Rocks is local to me, I will always regret missing this performed live.

[@ChrisYauSkates]

Great vid dude one day it will happen. I’ve been lucky enough to hear it live twice here in uk. Almost a third time but Mike sang the first line got everyone excited then said sorry not tonight guys.

[@christopherhill7843]

I saw them do it live in Oz. I'm an American, but I've seen them in 4 continents. They are simply the greatest band in the fucking world! EVER!

[@patricksteveok]

BEST reaction

[@seancartella7307]

I was at the Toronto show you mentioned… shitting my pants is an understatement!

[@212mochaman]

Holy fucking shitballs. They FINALLY did this motherfucking masterpiece live

[@patricksteveok]

best song of the world

[@nickbonte6519]

This is how to enjoy good music in a true fashion. Big cheers from The Netherlands to you you awesome red bearded pirate.

[@rararabblerouser5665]

I was screaming the lyrics out. Same kind of memories, here.

[@HollowTaKe]

8:52 ❤️

[@mauriciomartinezmedina414]

I share that same excitement on those same parts of the song haha. This is amazing!

[@CeciliaAntonelli]

19:57 cryin too

[@emmigoesrawr6214]

Loved this reaction

[@juanpablofernandezrauchtvr9256]

Yes, a full orchestra!

[@Darth_Atrius]

That outro brought tears to my eyes like crazy…goddamn, we’re getting old

[@galacticriminalx]

And now they're done. No more. Never again

[@fckthis61]

No song could better describe the world today

[@ewils423]

Dude.... i saw this song live during warped tour in Calgary, 2005 i believe. I remember loving this song before i even say it live, I was all but 17, and didn't realize the truth Fat Joe was preaching that day at Race City. So on that note man i just want you to know, as someone who has seen it live, this video, the symphony, brought some fucking REAL tears to my eyes. I watered up man.

[@anaabrandan]

This song is pure gold!!!!!!!!!

[@sunkendrinker2240]

Me too dude, me too.... Nice story at the about the chick in the Port o John 😆

[@justingomez8149]

THIS is exactly the reaction I had

[@Gunnar0481]

look at the orchestra smiling:)

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

One more pill to kill the pain...

[@junemacdonald44]

A punk rock magnum opus made even cooler. Baz and his orchestra are nuts, and there’s never been a better or cooler concert at Red Rocks, in my opinion. Cheers buddy, what a feeling this song brings up.

[@WariWahab]

Looks like you are suddenly 20 years younger 🤘🤘

[@skunk3866]

Right....???

[@justingomez8149]

FUCK YEAH DAD

[@nintendo_hero]

More punk reviews please! Cheers from Russia!

[@mariarosso3890]

Nofx¡¡ Argentina 2012¡¡ Good Live¡

[@groovefretboard]

Badass! Check my fretboard invention it’s the future of punk rock riffs. I seen nofx live in big bear. There were 50 people and I was 5 ft from stage. So personal

[@ihatepublicplaces]

I was hoping for more of a reaction than a dude bouncing and lip syncing... I could have just watched the regular video... Next time give us a reason to watch your video other than what you gave us.
