If this doesn't play at my funeral, I'm not going

[@puckbunni13]

Yup! Might as well just throw in me in the ground because y'all don't know me at all.

[@jacobsfire7735]

It's mine I claimed it last year haha

[@jacobsfire7735]

The end credits to a beautiful but painful life. This song is beyond words, it's to perfect

[@wapiti89]

Same

[@williamshepard81]

At my funeral it is take me back to Eden.

[@adukenuk]

The outro of Euclid is a callback to the breakdown of The Night Does Not Belong To God which is the first track on the first album

[@felipelima1011]

Euclid is the end of the story, it is where the character is ready to take the next step in his life. This song references all 3 albums

[@lynztheswiftiereads]

This whole song is a callback. The Rain gathers, the night belongs to you, the bough line, someone new is related to DYWTYLM. This song is the perfect ending

[@lynztheswiftiereads]

@@felipelima1011yes exactly!! So many amazing references 😭🫶🏻

[@Robinbubben]

Fun fact: When Vessel sings "give me five whole minutes", there is five minutes of the song remaining.

[@bennyharderguitar]

I never noticed that. lol. It’s the small details.

[@wowzerspotato5104]

Another fun fact the music still cuts off at exactly the 5 minute mark of the song even though he asks for it to be run back so he can have 5 whole minutes

[@gregpervis1481]

or go back further, The Night Does Not Belong to God is also 5 minutes long

[@michaelpalma6346]

36 years on this planet and this is one the most emotional and beautiful song I’ve ever heard. Sleep Token are just too damn good.

[@davewoj366]

Or 58

[@tysoncrosby3915]

When vessel says "give me five whole minutes" the song goes on for exactly 5 minutes from that spot. The nuance these guys put into their songs is top tier.

[@opengate13a]

I can't recall where I read it, but someone else said that "Vessel can say what others can't put into words and express how something feels" and I think that's very accurate. He's an amazing musician, but his lyricism is beyond the normal threshold.

[@giovannimerced1801]

That song is a love song and a goodbye song together. Just a masterpiece

[@rickydiamond441]

Funny, I got a Sleep Token tattoo finished a week ago and my tattooist put ST on whilst he was working on me. I’m going through a really hard time at the moment and every single day is a fight to get through. I don’t talk about it. But Euclid came on and I couldn’t stop the tears coming down my face. I told my tattoo guy it was the just the needle making me cry, but he fucking knew. This song kills me and if it wasn’t for this band, I probably wouldn’t be here today. I owe them a lot ❤

[@jeanproctor3663]

I know we don't know each other, but I'm glad you're still here and here's a huge virtual hug from this internet stranger. 🤗

[@zachlogan2058]

We may never know one another, but I want you to know that you’re worthy of love and that you make the world a brighter, better place because YOU are in it. You’ve made it this far, felt the pain already, so you might as well get something from it. Don’t give up.

[@TheFlagnard2]

This may be the best song I have ever heard. The way it builds, the message of renewal, the callbacks to other songs, the lore implications, the emotion...it has everything. I am going through my own, personal euclid right now and this song resonates so much with what I'm experiencing. I sat down last year and listened to all three albums in a row, without stopping. When the trilogy finished with this song, I was weeping. What Vessel has done with this is some of the best modern performance art of our time. "The Night Does Not Belong to God....The night belongs to you.".

[@literallywater8989]

Dude, yes! And the last line of the whole trilogy being "give me the night" is so heartbreaking

[@joshuamcwatters6803]

Omg finally!! this is in my opinion their best song.

[@AbsurdToastling]

Here's something to blow your mind - when Vessel comes in and sings "Just run it back, give me 5 whole minutes", the rest of the song from that first word is 5 minutes. It really was all he needed. Perfectly crafted.

[@lynztheswiftiereads]

I heard someone say this song is the culmination of worship and they’re spot on. There are callbacks to all three albums and this song is the ending the wrap up of all three past albums. Perfection 👏🏻🖤

[@rottenamiigo9443]

I cried my eyes out the first time hearing this song. Just the weight of the music and lyrics. God protect this band at all cost.

[@jacobekker]

It's so cathartic. It pulls tears every time.

[@Cinteck]

Song wraps the trilogy of albums, they did something really special with all of this.

[@jin123mlbb4]

Trilogy? Name them (the rest)

[@Cinteck]

@jin123mlbb4 Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Take Me Back to Eden. They also have two EPs and a few singles, all of their music so far has correlated and tells a story. But it also goes back even further than that if you dig deeper.

[@TardisMM]

Btw, fun fact. When Vessel says "give me five whole minutes", there are exactly 5 minutes left until the end of the song

[@XandycamX]

The end of this song (being the last track of the third album) ends with the same vocal parts and piano as The Night Does Not Belong to God (first track on album one) therefore concluding the trilogy in a full circle moment

[@wowzerspotato5104]

That and the first 2 albums end in similar ways to how the next one begins

[@BishieBishie]

The music is one thing, but if you get a chance, SEE THEM LIVE. Trust, I wasnt even as much a fan as I am now, I went with my cousin because she put me on the guest list on a whim (knew the bookers), I saw them just after lockdown in front of like 500 people? Changed my brain chemistry, in 20 years of going to live shows, nothing has come close to it. Then late last year saw them in Cardiff again but a sold out arena, wild. You can just search Cardiff 2021 and then 2024 on here and its crazy.

[@Heroo01]

this song feels like a nice hug that you don't want to pull away from

[@Edd25164605]

That back section with the layered vocals, the guitars and piano all coming together is an almost spiritual experience. Fantastic Track off a fantastic album!

[@dalj4362]

One of the best current bands without a doubt! Can't wait for the new album this year.

[@robotwaifuengineer]

I was brought to my knees weeping the first time I heard this song. Worship.

[@kaputanium5465]

This song was my (re) introduction to Sleep Token. I believe I heard the first 30 seconds of "The Summoning" and (foolishly) decided it wasn't for me, and then a few months later I saw a video about this song and decided to listen to it. Once the guitars hit after "Do you remember me", I was wrecked, crying, goosebumps, everything. This band is a treasure.

[@mikeymofonz]

The perfect ending to the trilogy!. How on earth can they top this I don’t know, but only Sleep Token can pull that off.

[@wickedPrints3256]

Such a powerful show of emotion and artistry. A beautiful call back to the beginning.

[@gotchyaa5747]

Loved the journey of the third album with you. I highly recommend starting from the beginning and continue the journey. Or watch them preform these songs live. Soooo transcendent. Much love

[@ryntrinity]

I'm obsessed with Vessel period! And their mix, gosh... They're sooo incredible! This is a perfect emotional poet meets indie melodic metal💜💜🥹

[@coolFlame]

My favorite Sleep Token song ❤

[@ivanekovek]

I really love your Sleep Token reactions (I haven't seen others). You put thoughts and time to them, unlike many other people who react to music. It's interesting to watch you. I'm glad you enjoy their music!!

[@silentcommenter]

Id love to hear your reactions to "Are you really okay?" or "Ascensionism" those are my two favourites!!

[@Turtle_Ronin]

Best description I've heard to "describe" their music is, someone said they were "ambient metal" cause the create such atmosphere with their music. Which i thought was a great choice of words

[@McKrakenAUS]

In Before everyone else… Worship…. Best conclusion to an album and trilogy, there are very few albums I don’t skip any songs on, this is one of them. Vessel is Singer, Song Writer, one of the producers and in the studio recordings it’s just Him playing everything except the Drums which is always II

[@rickydiamond441]

Saw them live in Leeds in December and the chills when they ended with this and everyone held up their green lights…. One of the best live bands I’ve ever seen. Can’t wait to see them live again in June when they headline at Download.

[@FourtuneCookies]

When you were talking about their lyrics and were saying there's something about them I thought to myself that they write lyrics because they understand what it's like to be human. To feel pain, to love, to regret, to hurt, and to forgive. Their songs seem to be able to be the person you want to talk to most, right when you need them to be.

[@sagichnet1811]

You NEEEEED to do Atlantic from Sleep Token. At least for me it is one of the biggest songs, emotionally and regarding lyrics and tells important piefes of the whole Sleep Token lore thingy. Anyways, thanks for your content, really honest reactions paired with great musical understanding. Love it!

[@ivanekovek]

She needs to do all xD

[@ninjasharkstudiosandmerch]

It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. And I've heard a lot lol. Truly a masterpiece. The build up...damn.

[@BlehgarySD]

This is my absolute favorite song of theirs (which is a tough choice to make) it always hits me in the gut

[@pauln0371]

This song bookends with The Night Does Not Belong To God which is the 1st song on the 1st album and is the Trilogies Start and Finish...🤘🏻🤘🏻 WORSIP...

[@themacca277]

This song is genuinely beautiful. The end of a journey, coming out the other side trying to be happy.

[@Matjo7588dk]

(Run it back, give me five whole minutes) (I am thick tar on the inside burning) it's still the autumn leaves (I've got a ghost in the hallway grinning) (And a heavy head that won't stop turning) these ancient canopies (If my fate is a bad collision) (And if my mind is an open highway) we used to lay beneath (Give me the twilight two-way vision) For me this song is the hallway between the past one wants and need to let go of. For the future you know is right there if you accept it. But can be hard. For him, it is those Ancient canopies ( In regard to his old band, and the personal stories with that )

[@aniketacharya512]

9:18 as a Sleep Token fan since the release of Sundowning (my favourite album), these references in the lyrics just made me cry instantly. An incredibly beautiful way to end the trilogy.

[@werios9789]

Giving all of our pain a voice. Thank you vessel and thank you rayactor for this. Worship.

Ah, you're reacting to Euclid? Yeah, I've got 16 minutes available, let's go!

[@nickwelch3649]

Keep this song in mind and you have to do The Night Does Not Belong To God now. It's an amazing journey going through that first Sundowning album and then This Place Will Become Your Tomb album to end with Take Me Back to Eden album. Just incredible

[@animerandomness]

D+jent. lol Hell yeah. I like the way you pronounce it. Awesome reaction, too. Keep it metal. \m/

[@J.J.Gosnell]

All of this.....perfect acceptance of this song

[@Sam-osa03]

This song is so bittersweet. It's about reminiscing the past, but not just looking back at the good days. It's facing the past's ghosts or darkness, being grateful that the bad things happened, while also being thankful that you learned from it, and cherishing the good memories. It is hope after facing all that darkness, pain, and suffering. The ending part is almost like the intro of The Night Does Not Belong to God, but the melody is different. Euclid has the conclusion of the key progression. Euclid is the conclusion while The Night Does Not Belong to God is the beginning of it all. You can think of it like two different points that you can draw a straight line between them. One of fundamental assumptions in Euclidian geometry EDIT: I am just rambling sleepily here. Take care y'all and stay hydrated.

[@adamw4372]

I've been dealing with pretty bad depression going through my divorce. His lines "Call me when you get the chance, I can feel the walls around me closing in" strike me with a strong sense of desperation while not wanting to inconvenience the person on the other end of the line. I sent the same message to my best friend on a really bad night and luckily he called back immediately. I just really connect with that part though and while he doesn't really vocalize the turmoil till later in the song, if you pay attn there you can truly feel it.

[@WTH13SERIOUSLY]

Once you have listened to them all I highly recommend setting aside some time to listen to the album start to finish. And then if you want to get more crazy listen to Sundowning, This Place Will Become Your Tomb, and Take Me Back to Eden all in one sitting. Great reaction! And surprisingly good analysis with one listen and read through of the lyrics.

[@marcbouchard9328]

i was waiting on this one :)

[@CatyPattootie]

13:54 i name their genre as Ambient metal cause it sounds perfect

[@corey_AKA_Mando]

NO ONE writes these overlapping melodies quite like ST does 💯💯💯

[@J.J.Gosnell]

This soul is my song as a screaming whisper.

[@johnschaffer6968]

You definitely need to do a relisten to the album in full once you are done going through the songs. The album connects so well.

[@raoulduke8003]

The "ghost in the hallway grinning" may be The Apparition? The "ghost" he speaks of in that song?

[@jenswittrock8688]

Euclid is the conclusion of Sleep Token's trilogy, which includes the albums Sundowning, This Place will become Tomb and Come Back to Eden, an epilogue if you will. The lyrics are references to the songs in the 3 albums, thoughts about the process and the result. Give me 5 full minutes, and that's what we get. There is a common thread, a straight line, like with the mathematician and philosopher Euclid, proofs and results like in his book Elements, through the music and lyrics in this trilogy. The 3 albums, especially Take me Back to Eden, will be remembered in music history for the magical, the surprising yet coherent, the innovative, the sensitive, the technically perfect yet involving. What can you call something that is more than perfect.

[@GreenEyedGambler]

I would love to see a video where you put the trilogy together. You have to link “The night does not belong to god,” and then “Euclid.” Also the fact that when he says “give me 5 whole minutes,” and then the song ends exactly 5 minutes later 🤯

[@wierdspanner]

This is such a beautiful song honestly, a perfect ending to the trilogy. Unrelated note but I really recommend checking out some more Caligulas Horse, I saw your previous reaction to The Stormchaser but honestly they have a lot more beautiful songs than that one IMO. If you want to check out some of their beautifully emotional works, I'd recommend Dream the Dead and The Ascent, generally about love, loss, and impermenance, and all so pretty sounding

[@whodey365]

Had to come back and find this comment to say thanks for that CH recommendation. I've never heard of them but I'm listening to Dream the Dead right now and it's so good. So thank you.

[@corey_AKA_Mando]

It's not "listening" to Sleep Token...it's more like an experience to listen to them

[@adukenuk]

Vessel writes the music and ii writes the drums!

[@faheemahmad9204]

You should listen to all 3 albums in order then you will know how the trilogy connects and you will get all the callbacks in every song . Then you will understand how beautiful Euclid is.

[@rumman_huda]

LYRICS: Just run it back, give me five whole minutes I am thick tar on the inside burning I've got a ghost in the hallway grinning And a heavy head that won't stop turning If my fate is a bad collision And if my mind is an open highway Give me the twilight two-way vision Give me one last ride on a sunset sky lane Call me when you get the chance I can feel the walls around me closing in Just running forward, a life like wires As I see the past on an empty ceiling I play along with the life signs anyway But hope to God you don't know this feeling Yet in reverse, you are all my symmetry A parallel I would lay my life on So if your wings won't find you Heaven I will bring it down like an ancient bygone Call me when you have the time I just need to leave this part of me behind Do you remember me When the rain gathers? And do you still believe That nothing else matters? For me It's still the autumn leaves These ancient canopies That we used to lay beneath No, by now The night belongs to you This bough has broken through I must be someone new No, for me (Run it back, give me five whole minutes) (I am thick tar on the inside burning) it's still the autumn leaves (I've got a ghost in the hallway grinning) (And a heavy head that won't stop turning) these ancient canopies (If my fate is a bad collision) (And if my mind is an open highway) we used to lay beneath (Give me the twilight two-way vision) now, by now (Just running forward, alive like wires) (As I see the past on an empty ceiling) the night belongs to you (I play along with the life signs anyway) (But hope to God you don't know this feeling) this bough has broken through (Yet in reverse, you are all my symmetry) (A parallel I would lay my life on) I must be someone new (So if your wings won't find you Heaven) (I will bring it down like an ancient bygone) The whites of your eyes Turn black in the low light In turning divine And we tangle endlessly Like lovers entwined I know for the last time You will not be mine So give me the night, the night, the night

[@boshjouwens5159]

Loathe - Is it really you? And Screaming pleaseeee🙏🏻

[@wallchris75]

You havent even gotten into the first two albums which are equally amazing.

[@DogScraps]

I'm so bummed you listened to this song without the whole story. Euclid is a song you have to work up to, you can't jump into it too early or else it gets spoiled. There's a dozen things that are referenced and directly shouted out from years before the song was released that paint an incredible, once in a lifetime type, story pay off moment. If that makes sense. When I listened to this song at midnight (ish) when the album released, I literally cried myself to sleep. Bawling. I don't cry very much, but this ruined me on a level I haven't had replicated since.

[@weehoey]

"What is Sleep Tokens genre?" - Yes

[@ROFLp0wNz]

for vessel to have littered ancient canopies in this song and a blacklit paradise in ascensionism... he probably wanted the connection to be made. The old band name is literally synonymous with "the night".

[@corey_AKA_Mando]

Crazy when you think about the line "just give me 5 whole minutes" it comes in when there is exactly 5 mins left of the song

[@rayactions]

Oh that's cool! I didn't realize that!

[@YonkoLalev]

Rachel, I like your Prog Metal reactions - especially Dream Theater and Queensrÿche - but you also did good with Tool. Can we stand a chance to see and hear from you reaction to another enigmatic progressive metal band - Circus Maximus? My suggestion - the official video of the song Namaste, which is from their third album Nine. I think that would be great! ❤🎉

[@scottyrocks1616]

You’ll appreciate this song even more if you listen to, The Night Does Not Belong to God off their debut album track 1.

[@thepoint1979]

Euclid... "the base BC will coincide with the base EF and will be equal to it" - A copy of the same. The Greek Mathematician - the Godfather of Elements - Euclid. The meaning of the titel of the last song..when putting all of the lore and lyrics into this equasion, will leave you with wonders and speculation of thoughts about the entity, the worship. The copy of himself, in a self sacrifising state, to write 3 masterpieces, who incorporated elements, mystery and possibly a hurt poet, struggling with loosing someone, who was his entire world. Or..did he just capture us, digital demons, with heart-breaking, genius compositions. Creating what mankind for centuries has been worshipping. A god, but with relatable, heart breaking emotions. He made us come together, to worship around a struggling deity. Did - The night belong to God - or did it belong to us? Because he created it for us. Regardless..the endless deep-diving and speculating has come to an end. I wonder how long, how many years, he spent creating this..copy of the same. I cannot stop to think that hopefully, someday, you will come forward, and receive the recognition of many. The night will always belong to you. That was the place, where you Ascended. And you were always divine, even without the whites turning black. It was more than just a Sleep Token. It was an Awakening. It was a Miracle by Daylight. Thank you. It was journey. @Sleep-Token

[@multiversegameing81]

There is so much to break down with this song to break down. There are countless references to other songs the walls are closing in as an inverse of lyrics from another song. I'd recommend listening to the tmbte album and the night does not belong to God. Re listen to Euclid it changes your view on the song. The trilogy of albums is the stages and sorrow and love in a toxic relationship and this is a sort of goodbye to that relationship.

[@andresmex7]

Pls do aqua regia by sleep token

“Li” is probably act “II” pronounced “Two” short for “Vessel Two”. He writes the drums. Vessel does everything else. That’s the way it’s always been.

Ray I think you should react to EDEN, he is unique in his genre Some songs to start to: Drugs Rock+Roll Crash Balling

[@danielvargas3119]

if you havent listened to jeff buckley then you should react to him. I know it's not metal or anything like that but his vocals are just soooooooo good. He doesnt have many live recordings but you can certainly find really good "lover, you should've come over" or "mojo pin" live performances here on yt.

[@danielvargas3119]

or maybe the studio versions, they're equally as good. I just think the live recordings make it even more obvious how good of a singer he was. May he rest in peace 🙏.

[@opengate13a]

@ It's a little wink from Vessel in an otherwise heart touching song haha

[@rickydiamond441]

My brother in law was in a corporate box to see ST live in Manchester at the end of last year. He met Vessel’s (Leo Faulkner) dad and talked to him for a few minutes. Leo’s dad said he has always been a really shy kid, but always expressed himself through music. The mask grants him some form of anonymity and gives him a reason not to talk and lets people make up their own interpretations about the meaning of his songs.
