I believe it was said that Synyster Gates wrote that song about his grandfather passing away, but when Rev died he changed the lyrics and made the song about him. Beautiful song and so different from what we’re used to from A7X. RIP Rev. 🤘

The last part of the song, with the actual old photos and videos of The Rev and the guys is the most heartbreaking part imo, especially with how Matt delivers that verse. Also, I'd highly recommend checking out the acoustic rendition they did at the Grammy Museum.

I was I think 18ish when he passed. I am a recovering addict, I have been to probably 100 funerals at 30, but when the rev passed away it hurt. This band made surviving my insecurities, pain, shame, and just the mess I was when younger. The Rev passed from my poisons. I often think about those still sick and suffering. There is no easy way out… it’s hard to explain how someone you’ve never known moving on can hurt so bad. I’ve literally been to friends’ funerals that didn’t hurt like when the Rev passed; probably because on reflection, it should have been a warning to me, but for years I ran… dope benzos and alcohol have been what has taken from me: the same cocktail that caused the rev to pass on. I can’t imagine how hurt the band was, they grew up together they wrote together they were the closest of friends and than BAM, way to young Jimmy passed away. RIP jimmy Sullivan; one day I’ll see you rock the drums in heaven. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I'm using google translator because I'm Brazilian. I'm 30, A7x was part of my adolescence, listening and going through that time and all those feelings of loss when The Rev was gone. Today after a long time, I'm crying in front of the computer watching and remembering that time. But I'm happy with the size the band has reached, I still have their songs on the playlist, but I haven't felt something like that listening to their songs for a while. Thanks for the honest reaction. Signed: An adult who grew up with A7x and dpz for a long time, was able to appreciate music again.

As an old avenged fan, losing the Rev was absolutely gutwrenching. It was well known how close they were as a band, as friends, and most kf us truly didn't believe they'd continue. As far as i know, they were going to put out the album, then tour for it and be done... The fan response to the tour helped convince them to keep going.

I absolutely agree. It came out of nowhere, he was what, 28? I was in highschool, 18 ish, I’d get home from school throw on A7X and play guitar to the songs; back when it was an iPod plugged into speakers lol. But, when I heard he died, I felt this immense sadness. He just seemed like such a great person, blatantly one of the best drummers ever… I’d go on to go through years of my own addiction. Many funerals later, reflecting on Jimmy/The Rev, I realize that I should have seen such precious life leaving too early as a warning, but I’m clean now. One day we will all reunite in heaven/afterlife, whatever, and have a huge concert! Freddie Mercury, Beethoven, A7X, Elvis, etc

I'm about 40 seconds into this and the song hasn't even started yet and Rachel is ALREADY upset about the loss of The Rev. That just shows how special Jimmy was. Even just knowing a snippet of his work was enough to hook you and make you feel his music, and to realize that he's no longer in our world just HURTS. I know the band has moved on and made decent stuff since, but whenever I hear their new material, all I can think in my head is "Jimmy is missing from this." Maybe that's unfair to them, but I can't help it. Thank you Rachel, for sharing your feelings with us in this reaction. That montage at the end is an emotional gutpunch. I tear up every time I watch this video. However, I am glad that you felt such a huge connection to The Rev's work. His memory will live on within all of us who admired him. ...and thank you, Jimmy, for everything you shared with the world when you were here. - foREVer -

I’ve been a fan since Waking The Fallen back in 03, I’ve been obsessed with A7X ever since. Finding out that that he passed away was one of the heaviest moments in my life. My heart goes out to his Family and friends, We had him for a short amount of time but he left us with his music and happy memories throughout his life. I miss you jimmy, you were a knife master. I hope you’re eating all the steak tacos and chasing stallion ducks. My favorite a7x videos were watching the guys make music with their little documentaries, you should definitely check them out. They use to do really funny videos before they would go on stage and for their encores.

It’s fun to see people find them for the first time, which is how I found your videos. Even my wife, who is definitely not a metal head, likes a number of their songs. Looking forward to the new album.

I saw them again a couple weeks ago after my cousin committed suicide. I've known my cousin since he was about a month old. When I heard this song live again, I was a complete mess. I usually sing along even when thinking about The Rev, but I couldn't even hardly get a note out this time. I felt more broken than ever. Other members of the audience were giving me a pat on the back to let me know they understood. I love A7X and their community. Keep it metal. \m/ :,)

I've watched him grow up, learn, laugh, love, hurt, and become a helluva guy, heart of gold, not a mean bone in his body. He was the little brother I never had. This song makes me think of him every time I hear it. Sure do miss you, Willie. Rest easy.

The "REV" on Syn's guitar wasn't the only tribute in the video, Johnny's bass strap reads foREVer, Syn has forever tattooed across his chest and Shadows has a rendition of Jimmy as a deathbat on the back of his right hand

That shot of him twirling the drumsticks at 7:59 in your video is at Download Festival in 2006. I'm in that crowd, I was only 15 at the time, and went to my first music festival, alone, just to see them play that set. I waited in the 35 degree sun for like 8 hours just to make sure I was near the front, and it was worth every penny I begged my parents for to get a ticket and all the sunburn I had for weeks after. I also had the photo at 8:57 printed out and stuck to my bedroom wall as a teenager, amongst a whole bunch of others of them. I'll never forget when I found out Rev had died, it breaks my heart as much now as it did them. Out of all of my tattoos, only 3 are music related, and one of them is the Deathbat, Sevenfolds skull with wings logo. Rev was a big part of why I got that tattoo with the music he helped make. I got my tattoo in 2008 and he died in 2009. RIP Rev, Sevenfold were never the same after you left.

i remember when rev was gone, me and my friends were teenagers, we simply just couldnt believed it....but we played as well, and i guess that same strenght that came to the rest of the band came to us all as friends, we just keep on playing, forming bands.... i still play to this day, and avenged has a new record on the oven! so maybe thats how we move on, keep doing the things that rev believed in keeping strong our passion for music and all the stuff that comes within much love from brasil, love your channel!

I loved to see the last minute of the video, I felt it was such an honest human reaction because I saw how excited You were watching them play live in the LBC (which it was one the Best concerts they have recorded) but I honestly had your reaction when I found out that the Rev had just died when I began to really liked them, I hope that by now You already knew that the greatest songs of the firsts albums were written bye the Rev, because he was not only the drummer, but we lost a really great musician 😢💔

Rachel, now you understand. Thank you for this. You should listen to Fiction as many others have mentioned. So Far Away is actually the band replying to what the Rev asks of them in his last song.

The entirety of the rev saga is one that i think we should absolutely react to on this channel. Fiction is the last song that Jimmy recorded vocals for, and the lyrics definitely make it seem like he knew that his time was coming soon. Save Me is the ultimate send off for Jimmy and the band really goes all out in his honor. then, to finally wrap it all up St. James is their final tribute song off of the Hail to the King album.

I like the fact that even though there are drums in the song, they don’t show a drummer in the music video.

This is probably my favourite reaction to this song that I've seen, and I've watched a lot. You really *got* the pain and meaning in it all, and communicated it perfectly. For me, the bits that still upset me after countless listens and watches are: 1. The flashback videos and pics towards the end, most of which don't feature Jimmy drumming, but being a friend and a clown. It hits home that they lost so much more than their drummer. 2. The military-style drumming that kicks in just before the above part. Reminds me of like an army funeral march or something, and always gets me. 3. The way Matt absolutely wails the ending. I can honestly say I've never felt a singer's raw emotion just through the way they sing quite like I do at the end of this song. Anyway, thanks again for the reaction, I know it was uploaded a while ago and you probably won't see this, but I really enjoyed it (as much as it's possible to "enjoy" something like this).

The Rev opened up music to me in more than a listeners perspective. I grew up obsessed with the idea of Drums/ Vocals like he did. When he passed it was the first time in my life that I felt a true tragedy. So much talent in 1 group....
