I love Falling in Reverse and try to check out everyone's reactions. I will say that your reactions have been, hands down, the best of them all. Your appreciation of the talent, and your ability to dissect everything with clarity is an absolute joy to watch. I'm excited to watch you grow. I think you have a bright future ahead if you stick to it.

[@ROOKCAST]

Wow, thank you so much for this. Hearing this as a reactor means everything. I appreciate it so much! Thanks for the support 🙌🏻

[@ordinarybear7037]

Top tier bro, keep it up ! regards Legends

[@JustMe-wg6zv]

Just a theory of mine. The fact that Willow had the glowing eyes and seemed creepy/scary in the end would signify a fear that his daughter will follow in his footsteps....sort of as if the evil he fought within himself resides in her as well....or could. His greatest fear is his daughter ending up like the old Ronnie.

[@ROOKCAST]

Mister Fox I think the theory is SPOT on. I didn’t make that connection while reacting to it but you and another person mentioned that and now I think that’s definitely it. What a concept. So heavy. I love it.

[@amberrhodes2]

That was my theory also that he is afraid of his daughter going down the same path.

[@nsampone3]

@@ROOKCAST Yeah. People with the glowing eyes, in the video, are drug users with inner demons. Ronnie suffered through drug addiction, his mom left him as a kid because she was an addict, and now he sees the glowing eyes/inner demons in his daughter - continuing the chain Similarly, being "dead from the neck up" is a reference to what drugs do to us. Itnisnt you, it's the drug, once you're addicted. The being asleep for a long time is how your life is a haze while you're addicted and how you arent really living it

[@ordinarybear7037]

Control your demons once & then crush the weak part that says go on do it again....... the yin yang balance of spiritual development. R.R is a rare talent that indeed puts it ALL OUT THERE. kind regards Legends

[@terismith4680]

The whole band is his vision. All his lyrics, he comes up with most arrangements. His band members are friends but they also need to understand that it is his vision and he expects certain things from them. Hes replaced several members and it's hard for him to be a friend and a boss. He is very misunderstood and lots of people think hes an asshole but I totally understand and respect why he is the way he is and absolutely love him for not compromising anything. He really is a genius. Loved all your reactions. I could talk about this man all day!

[@ROOKCAST]

Oh wow.. this is interesting! I wasn’t sure how the band dynamic worked but that makes sense. I’m sure people judge him for no reason. Which is idiotic. And thanks! I appreciate that. 😎

[@reagansmash2978]

@@ROOKCAST Its similar as how Trent Reznor does NIN. Yes there is band members and they might come and go but its all under his vision.

[@Fallenhalo_Music]

He said in a live stream that he does do all the writing but he couldn’t do what he does without his band members and he loves and needs them

[@geoffw24]

Not gonna lie, Ronnie is a badass but he straight up rips apart his green room or whatever you call his backstage area haha to the point my city won't book him anymore and I have to drive 3 hours to see FIR live now

[@iam555tothe666777]

"I need to process what just happened" Corey Taylor happened!

[@macruizphotography]

after watching 100's of these reactions and listening to Ronnie in his LS I have come up with this. Black hair is him, the girl with the black liquid is the drugs the black liquid is heroine, him in the clouds is the "high" from the drugs birthing the blond hair ronnie (which is Ronnie on drugs) losing my life is the anger and the instability of blonde hair ronnie. They fight black hair (normal ronnie) fights and loses to the drugs (blonde hair) and than comes back to life. Drugs - is the rebirth of Ronnie beating the drugs (blonde hair) and explaing why he believes he went down that path. BTW great reactions

[@ROOKCAST]

Spot on breakdown I’d say! So many connections and so much depth to each video. It’s insane. And thank you! I appreciate that 🙌🏻

Corey's apparition in that one is also due to some same drugs issue in his previous life. they both fought over it !

i'm just now watching this but when you said people cut them self i immediately broke down because that me now and Ronnie has helped me for the past 11 or 10 year I've been listening to him because I've know him since escape the fate :( he deserves so much more then what he gets

CARRNAGE I got the notification for your comment about Corey Taylor but I can’t find it to respond to it so I’ll respond here..... I DESERVE THE BUSTING OF MY BALLS. 😂😂 like I’ve said, I was used to the masks and don’t think I’d ever seen/heard him without the mask. Still, that’s my bad missing out on a big part of the culture like that 😂. I uploaded a reaction to his acoustic version of Snuff but it got blocked for copyright.. I plan on uploading some Slipknot and Stone Sour reactions soon though. But until then, I’ll take the punches for not recognizing him 😂

[@ROOKCAST]

Dude that means so much! Like so much. I appreciate it. I want to be as genuine as possible so it means a lot that it’s be received! Wow man, thanks! The channels growing and I love the community it’s building. 🤘🏻

[@ROOKCAST]

FallenHalo Music appreciate it. That’s really encouraging since I’m still a small channel!

[@mariavitso]

I loved your reaction! I will clarify some things in his past that will make sense with the clip: his mother was a drug addict and abandoned him when he was a child, in adolescence he became a drug addict and overdosed, almost died, that's why he says “everybody’s on drugs” and “if it’s killing you then it’s murdering me”. the part where he says “the American dream is a killing machine” is about that, the dream of having a perfect family that he didn’t have, then cut to his hanged scene. hugs from brazil!

[@ROOKCAST]

I think you’re spot on. And I didn’t even think of the transition to the hanging scene in that regard, good insight!! Appreciate the comment and the support. Love from the U.S 🤘🏻

[@JZ8202]

My wife and I went to see falling in reserve in concert Feb 2020, and we had vip passes. So we got to meet and talk to ronnie poor guy was so sick (had been sicks for a few weeks) and he was still so awesome and on his game. He's a great dude, and my wife and I just love falling in reserve and Ronnie. You are my favourite reacter!! Keep it up, what you say is on point! You got my support.

[@ROOKCAST]

Collin Fortenberry oh wow!! I bet their concerts are insanely awesome! And thank you so much!! That means a lot! I appreciate all the support. 🙌🏻

[@Dunkndosentz]

One of the underlying themes of this song and video in specific is how his mother, who was a drug addict, passed it down to him. He would give anything for his daughter not become what he was, as well as his mother

[@DarKcurrenT22]

Killing his old self and the end signifies him be scared that his daughter will make the same mistakes he has

[@michaltalir9016]

I watched this triology a hundred times, but just now I realized why is his dialoge with his mother so similiar to the one with himself. The blond Ronnie is the part of him that is bad like his mother and he wants to erase both of them from himself. That's why they both have blonde hair and the dialoge is similiar.

[@LCJynx]

Yaaaaaaasssss! Sir. I really do love your reacts!

[@Grimlock1975]

The whole depression thing you had spot on :) As someone who has the chemical version of depression it's so true about the numbness, sometimes you're tempted to do something to feel something but it's only a fleeting thing for me, for others it may be a greater struggle. Great reaction to the music, the lyrics and the meaning behind them. Easiest sub ever :) Ronnie's mother was an addict who left him and his dad when he was very young

[@ROOKCAST]

EngelBert HumptyDunk thank you! 😎 and oh man. I’m sorry you have to go through that. But I’m happy it’s fleeting! And yeah I just found out about that today. I had no idea his mother was into drugs too. It adds so much to the videos knowing that! Appreciate the sub brother, welcome to the Rook family. 🙌🏻🤘🏻.

[@universalbiscuit7781]

Thanks for completing this trilogy. Thoroughly enjoyed all your Falling in Reverse reactions.

[@ROOKCAST]

universal biscuit thanks man! I appreciate the that 🙌🏻

[@universalbiscuit7781]

Rook Reacts of course, I've noticed others recommended more like Alone and the drug in me is you, and the reimagined version he personally dedicated to his fans. Just wondering though if you will be doing any Linkin Park on your channel? If you do, Final Masquerade was one of his last songs he did that I enjoyed. Happy to see your channel grow, really enjoy the depth you do on your reactions, and as you can tell in the comments I'm not the only one.

[@ROOKCAST]

universal biscuit yes! And I’m planning on doing everything on this channel. Any and all music types. Hopefully all the new falling in reverse fan subs will understand and still support! But dude I haven’t heard that one so I’d love to do it. The whole thing with Chester is so awful. But old linkin park I know and it’s all dope!

Rook Reacts thanks man, and I love all music genres myself, as long as the music has a story or meaning and it's done well, I'm all in if I connect with it. I know I'll still be coming back to the channel and FIR fans will also. I noticed that people enjoy reactors that do like you do. Actually try to get into and understand the meaning of music, not just a reactor going through the motions of what they think we want to hear. Basically, honest, genuine reactions. Keep your grind going, really happy I found your channel.🤘

[@Tethmes]

Good shit man, I'm glad you enjoyed the trilogy! Though I had no doubt you would. Can't wait to see more. On the part about the song writing, yes. Ronnie writes everything. The story and vision of the videos are from his head as well. He IS Falling in Reverse. A couple members of the band are long term members, but by and large hired help. Albeit very talented hired help. :)

[@ROOKCAST]

LOVED IT! and I figured so. Way too personal and emotional to be written by anyone else. Ohhh that’s good to know. I wasn’t sure if they were all long term members or not. True that 🤣

[@GQPikachu]

Saw all your reactions to Falling in Reverse. I have seen all the videos so many times, either on my own or from other reaction videos, but none of them brought such an in depth perspective to these songs like you have. You provided some ideas and analysis that I wouldn't have even thought of, so keep up the great work!

[@terismith4680]

Ronnie is good friends with MGK. He was in his video for Bad Girls Club. Ronnie is so real and raw with his lyrics and his fans are fiercely loyal. He wants us to know him, his real self. Love your reactions!

[@zatt4086]

"I think I'm a little late to the band, this was from 2018" Bro This guys started in 2011 (4 albums and 6 sigles by now) and the drama behind the band's creation started even earlier I'm sure you'll have a long ride, but it will be worthy, i promise I recommend you to listen the albums in order (I now there are famous songs that people will ask for a reaction and that's okay) so you can really see how much they improved (I mean, they tried pop, rock, metal, rap, piano ballad and even country in just ONE album! And there are some songs with 3 or more styles in the package...) So yeah, you'll never get bored about them

[@ROOKCAST]

Yes so I think I’m way late to the band. 🤣 But yeah I’m trying to hit certain things in a good order but it’s hard. It’s wild how versatile the band is! I’m always baffled because they have so many sounds in one song.

Okay hear me out on this... Loosing My Mind - starting out becoming famous, gaining popularity, getting to the point of a Popular Monster - with all the fame something happens where the popular one has to face the law which tends to send them to jail, how they come out of jail all depends on a pivotal point before they go in (Willow is introduced as that point) calming the popular monster so they have a goal when released, only to relapse into a sense of them feeling as if they are Loosing My Life - back into a second chance at life with his daughter, when asked, "Daddy, why did you go to jail" triggering the relapse into what sent them to jail in the first place Drugs - mixed back up with drugs you finally get that last hit that's a hot one in turn killing you where you meet your mother who apologized for not being there because she probably ran off because of drugs, "I'm here to thank you for not being there because it made me who I am" a drug addict who dies realizing The Drug In Me Is You - who in the very first video was the woman pouring her drugs into him metaphorically as he was in her womb that was being sung about in this final video, she probably got hooked on drugs after finding out she might have gotten pregnant on prom night after being crowned prom queen (loosing my mind/popular monster) being forced to have the baby, not being able to handle it (popular monster/loosing my life) getting hooked on and being on (drugs) only to wake up in his daughters dream where he sees the glowing eyes early enough to before she follows down the treacherous life ending path of her father's which he himself saw in the dream he had that brought him all the popularity and just before he squandered it which would eventually lead his daughter down that path finally understanding it was due to his mother not being there for him while he grew up and him not wanting to make that same mistake it is shown to him in the eyes of his young daughter...

[@NutHouseReject]

I feel like the metaphor through all of these videos is him fighting with his darkest tendencies and his darkest thoughts and the reason his daughter keeps showing up is because she’s the light of hope in his life that drives him to be a better person.

[@amyleeallen1602]

By now you know the screamer was none other than Corey Taylor of Slipknot/Stone Sour. @12:01 - @14:25 you got heavy and LITERALLY made me cry because you are so right. So many artists/athletes have come from horrible childhoods to become amazing in their field. They pull from the rage and other emotions to better themselves and to be role models/ influencers for the younger generation. We have watched a lot of Ronnie's happen right in front of us, and I can not speak for the masses but I applaude him for his growth and you for taking the time to say what you did. Love ya man!! 💖🥰 [{His incarceration was because he was on probation and failed a drug test so it was revoked and he had to serve the time}] You have some of the best reactions....I do hope Ronnie reacts to you again and sees how much you too have grown lol.

[@sandrawohlden]

the whole ‘dripping black liquid into his mouth’ thing represents his heroin addiction, i believe. the woman is the drug seducing him; she’s the spoon (just look at her outfit; it’s silver) while the black liquid is likely directly representing black tar heroin. his ascent towards the sky (where he’s literally FALLING IN REVERSE, lol) is representing the high. i just adore this shit, bro. i kid you not, watching people react to FIR is my favorite pastime nowadays. the trilogy truly is simply great reaction material! i literally watch every other reaction i find, haha. once again, you’re an awesome one!!! it’s nice seeing how attentive, curious and engaging you are. i genuinely love analyzing ronnie’s stuff, too. #inspired

john bacon I’m disappointed everyone knows who that is but me 🤣. But I’ve gotten some Slipknot recs so I’ll react to them soon and be more formally introduced to him! Thanks for the continued support, it means a lot. 🙌🏻

[@ryanmarshall7248]

Listen to “The Day I Left The Womb” by his first band Escape the Fate. It ties in the old woman in this video.

[@maxrudin6215]

I'm late but watched all 3 with you.

[@pigrabbit1801]

I just found your videos and think your amazing at breaking these down. Might I suggest NF? Intro 3 is amazing.

[@ROOKCAST]

Pigrabbit I really appreciate that, thank you. 😎 and yes of course!! Love that recommendation. 🤘🏻

[@ginagennaro5533]

The song " l don't mind" from album" coming home",I think the voice of Ronnie in that song is quite different, and i love it a lot

[@wesleysenser7875]

Cory Taylor, amazing artist. Definitely worth checking out!! Slipknot and falling in reverse are both in my top 3 bands

[@jasonsidwell2555]

That's Corey Taylor from slipknot

[@ladinokrow]

In "The Westerner", Ronnie talk a lot about himself

[@tokSiik0420]

Yea same in Destiny. He talks about his dad and mom and what he did that put him prison. He doesnt go in too much detail on why but you can search around and kinda get a gist. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGO1n5WIhKpsm5Y

[@nikkieJane7831]

I don't know if anybody's already mentioned his mum was a drug addict & walked out on him & his brother. His brother later died in a motorbike accident. He's done a song for his brother who was called Anthony called Brother. Plus a song called Chemical Prisoner has a couple of members of his brothers biker group in & 1 of my favourite songs by FIR. Another great reaction 💜

[@ROOKCAST]

No one has mentioned that.. I knew his mom left but didn't know she was a drug addict. That adds so much depth to the concept of him passing on the addiction gene to Willow because obviously his mom passed it to him and he fell victim to it.. wow. Thanks for telling me that! Someone requested I do the song Brother. looks like I might have to for sure now! Thanks so much, I really appreciate the support!

[@nikkieJane7831]

@@ROOKCAST Chemical Prisoner is about his fight with addiction. There are so many songs that I could request & once you start the journey of Falling in Reverse you just can't stop so I'm looking forward to watching you on your journey.

[@Byu015]

The amount of depth you go into with each reaction is amazing. I would really love to see you break down a few blue October songs back when he was going through a lot. Keep up the good work. And PS that’s Corey taylor from slipnot and I think stone sour. Could be wrong tho.

[@JD-em6sf]

The "mystery screamer" is Corey Taylor from slipknot

[@Ultraxsiempre]

This was awesome! was nice revisiting this with you. This is all Ronnie too. DUDE'S TALENTED! Check out Losing My Life live at Warped Tour if you got some free time. It's really good. So this is my interpretation: Ronnie is battling himself all the way throughout the videos (an internal struggle) and we get to see that internal struggle right up to the end. I think after battling the "evil" or dark part of him he fails to realize that perhaps he has passed down that "evil" down to his daughter. By being asleep for a long time (depression and being numb in the real world), time passes without us realizing that the world around us moves on and grows (for better or worse) and might realize too late you weren't there for those around you. P.S. Congrats on doubling your subs over night :) Keep rocking man! Cheers Brother!

[@Ultraxsiempre]

BTW, Corey Motherfucking Taylor is like a metal God lol. So, noticed how they didnt say Drugs ft Corey Taylor. I think that's awesome considering the video would go massive if that was the case but Ronnie kept it low key. You can imagine the reaction of people when he popped up 3/4 down the song lol. Priceless!!!!

[@ROOKCAST]

Thanks man!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻. and wow, I think that interpretation is spot on! I didn’t even think about the “being asleep” part as being a metaphor for sleep-walking numbly through life... what a good concept. Nice theory!! And thanks! The growth has been insane and I’m so grateful for it. Hope it continues. Either way I’ll keep plugging away. 😎. Appreciate the support brother!

[@goldenpie6]

Is no one gonna talk about the feature of CC on the drums? The drummer of black veil brides was in this mv and toured with FIR for a little. And a different fun fact: Ronnie used autotune heavily in this song because he knew it would make people mad. Guess what? It worked

[@cookieanarchy6]

The first thing that popped into my mind when you questioned about the 2 versions of Ronnie, was Ying and Yang, the dark being the good and the light being the evil, but that’s just my first thought. 😊

[@ROOKCAST]

Cookie Anarchy6 dude... I never even thought of this perspective! Spot on 👀

[@cookieanarchy6]

Rook Reacts And I also guess that Corey Taylor(the guy with the chainsaw, who is the front singer in Slipknot) is the good side of Ronnie and killing the evil within him so he can save himself.

[@cookieanarchy6]

And I still don’t know why Ronnie’s daughter is laughing like that at the end of the music video. 🤔

[@frostbornegaming6453]

Everyone gangsta till corey taylor comes in with a chainsaw

[@billekeman5412]

You're doing a nice job jumping into reactions. You said you wanna maybe hear some stuff we feel not enough people have heard. I got one for ya. I'd like to see you check out the band Sons of Texas. I'd say the song Expedition to Perdition is a good song to groove to. New sub. Keep up the good work. Hope to see you check it out. Solid, fun band and killer live. Good guys. They deserve to be heard more.

[@ROOKCAST]

Bill Ekeman thanks man! And okay yes I love getting recs that are under the radar. I’ll definitely check them out!! I appreciate the sub brother. 🙌🏻 welcome to the family!

[@rodinealbertfontamillas4118]

Nice live reacting. You have something to tell about the way they sounds and breaking down the lyrics as. Yeah we already know the lyrics, But its informative explaining the lyrics from your perspective. Nice nice.

[@damonyates0508]

The 2033 date is important because it was supposed to be Ronnie's original release date from prison. I have no clue how he got released early though. Great job on the breakdown of the video. Keep ''em coming!

[@MidnighTokr]

You. I like you. The glowing eyes have taken me a while to figure out but I think I finally got it down. Blonde Ronnie is sober Ronnie (as evidenced by the tea party from Losing My Life) while Dark Haired Ronnie is him on Drugs. He mentions in LML that us bitches are always pissed 'cause he is constantly changing - and to please excuse him, he just kills himself sometimes. This represents, as you mentioned, him evolving as an artist (and maybe human?). This also ties into his issues with addiction. There's no clear victor, sometimes sobriety wins and sometimes addiction wins, but he is constantly fighting the other side of himself (Ronnie V Ronnie showdown from LML). The thick black liquid from Losing My Mind that you called Toxicity is actually heroin, the cloud scene is him high, which gives the idea that the glowing eyes represent "at risk" sobriety or a propensity for addiction. Side note - 2033 was the year he was supposed to be released from prison. You missed it, but in this scene from LML the background music playing on the radio ("turn the fucking music off") is actually LMM. The daughter is obviously older and says "you've been asleep for a very long time". I think this represents him burying himself in his work and missing out on time with what's actually important in life - in Ronnie's case his daughter. So anywho, in Drugs - obviously the hospital scene is his mother and he lays it out very clearly she was never there for him. The eyes tell you why - addiction, but they're black which indicates that sobriety didn't win in her case which is why she turns into a demon when she says "Drawgs!". And at the end, Ronnie clues you in that it's a never-ending battle (You've gotta be fucking kidding me!"), and that he's afraid that his daughter will have the same issues that quite literally his entire family has dealt with - addiction (which doesn't have to be drugs, which is why "everybody's on drugs!"). One thing I haven't seen a single reactor catch yet - at the beginning of LML, the first letter of every word going down spells out "FIRE" which the song absolutely fucking is. Easily my favorite of The Trilogy sonically! Ronnie is not the king of the music scene, he's the God of it. /ENDRANT

[@mariavillarreal2562]

I watched all three!

[@joshschwarzbauer8155]

Others have told you at this point- but do The Drug in me is You, then The Drug in me is Reimagined... i promise the new song that just came out will hit you 20x harder if you watch the original first. I was here for all three with you mate. It was amazing to experience this with you. What a time to be alive.

[@ROOKCAST]

These are by the far the most requested songs, which means they’ve gotta be good! Haha. And I really appreciate the support of being there for all 3! 🙌🏻

[@wendyc.beecher3336]

Addiction has a very strong genetic component. Also being raised or abandoned by an addict parent sometimes can cause a child to follow the same path, sometimes go the exact opposite path but the genetic predisposition is passed to his daughter.

[@TechnoFreak-IN]

drugs is my favorite among the three songs

[@ROOKCAST]

I’d have to agree! I like them all but Drugs is definitely my favorite. I’ve had it on repeat and in my head since I filmed the reaction tbh. 🤣

[@Wyno2289]

The 2033 signifies when he was supposed to get out of prison, but he got out early. Definitely check out the drug in me is you to experience his full vocal range! Great videos!

[@ROOKCAST]

I recorded a 2 in 1 reaction to both of those songs! Going to be releasing today. And thanks, I appreciate that 🙌🏻

Holy shit!!! I just watched it.... THATS NOT WHAT I MEANT WHEN I SAID 303!!!! I meant that when I heard the band name for the first time I thought it was going to be that type of genre.... NOT THAT THEY LITERALLY SOUND MUSICALLY THE SAME. AT ALL.

I don’t know whether to be excited or not because I feel like he hates me now 😂, when it’s not what I meant at all!

I’m so excited don’t get me wrong!!! Just hope I don’t get a bunch of hate over a misunderstanding. 😂 This is crazy awesome though!!

[@mirandagarcia579]

I know me personally, my mother emotionally checked out from the age of 9-20. She was in my life, but it felt functionary. I dove myself into drawing and writing stories, and my dad was across the country in another state after their divorce. Art is a huge part of my life and my coping mechanism, but I don't know what my life would have been like if my mother hadn't done what she did...

[@gregjones652]

That is Cory Taylor lead singer for slipknot

[@mikefreeman8024]

That guy.. is corey Taylor's singer of slipknot and stone sour... And hes a beast

I love slipknot... just found out about falling in reverse like alot of us .. and I'm fucking loving it ...incredible stuff and deep ..

[@wendyc.beecher3336]

I've suffered depression for over 20 years. I've never been numb. I've always felt deep despair and sadness. I WANTED to be numb. So I envy those that said they felt nothing. I always felt such deep painful sadness and loneliness. Wonder what's different about me vs. others with depression?

What does Willow say in the last cinematic? I've never been able to pick it apart from the background sound.

If you’re interested in more from the band I’d suggest a 2- part reaction of The drug in me is you, and The Drug in me is reimagined, also Game over from them would be another good version

[@ROOKCAST]

Yes that’ll be the next reaction I do! It seems it’s extremely popular because that’s definitely my most requested thing. I’m excited to do it. 🤘🏻

[@matcauthon2746]

Game over is my favorite song from them. I love all of their albums, but that song is awesome.

[@phillipatwood4054]

You should check out the song "Beaten in Lips" from the band Beartooth

[@vamprincess1331]

I know I’m late to the video. But yes he writes all of the music, all the instruments himself, he said himself FIR isn’t even really a band because in studio he records all the instruments himself, yeah the band preforms it live and stuff with him but they have no real part in the writing/recording
