What you call "G-d Rays" is incredibly difficult to realistically paint (color consistencies and disciplined line control), is it difficult to capture well in camera?

[@MrLboydReacts]

@@kennethslayor8177 it’s extremely to photograph, but not easy to create

[@thunderballz74]

Subbed...😀

[@northstarstate1016]

This is why Tom's on another content level goodness! Anyone who has to bury a child is a special kind of strong! That hook would be shouted and shake mountains. Great break down!

[@CTI1977]

Hello from Alberta Canada Mr LBoyd. Enjoy your reactions to Tom & Nova. Check out their older duet project gfbf - I'm not well & pillz I believe you'll enjoy the message & the visual production.

Getting sober Is easy..... Staying sober is one of the most difficult things that you can possibly do.

Tom macdonald actually helped me stop drinking been sober a little over a year now #HOG4Life

Facts

[@jamestalkington6306]

I disagree on the getting sober being easy. It can be made easier, sure, but DT off of some things is far from easy

[@jamestalkington6306]

Furthermore, most rehab/detox facilities are using poor choices for pharmaceuticals to help. I know from experience some things that work better than methadone for opiate detox, but its almost like they WANT relapse to occur

[@richardbinkley8487]

Both Tom and Madchild said they cried writing their verses and looking back at what they went through

[@ambernkinnaird9414]

This was the first song I heard from Tom and It came at time when I needed it the most. I had been sober for 12 years until I relapsed early last year. I was literally on the verge of losing my marriage when I heard this song for the first time. This song saved my life and my marriage. I have been a fan of Tom's ever since and I will be forever!

[@chuckliles4071]

An anthem to recovery.

[@heidithatswho.2481]

This song is an anthem for those of us fighting this war. #hangovergang for life 🔥💪🏻🔥

[@JennJenification]

It's truly a process and journey....Appreciate every time you catch yourself, and remember those teaching you new habits...takes a long time if you're anything like me, anyways. But this song and several others were/are like an iron rung on that ladder for me. I'm hangin' in there. I hope you are, too, HOG

[@heidithatswho.2481]

@@JennJenification thank you for your encouraging words. I felt I should give an update. I no longer drink. As many know. I have been in financial trouble due to a torn rotator cuff making it nearly impossible to do even daily chores. Turns out the older I got, the less I wanted to drink. At this point even the thought of it makes me queasy. Lol it's been over a year for me.

[@michaelmedina3579]

Being 7 years clean and share my own testimony around California I loved this song by Tom and Madchild. Great track

[@jasonmoore3786]

One of the greatest reactions to this song I've ever seen!

[@conmom2534]

As for Tom he has a uncanny way of releasing songs at just the right time for me. The song cancer was released right after I found out my pepaw was diagnosed and it really hit home.

[@northnova1358]

It’s crazy how many people I’ve heard say the same thing!! 🖖🏼 Live long and prosper🖖🏼

[@amylou6518]

Madchild had a very successful rap career in Canada and then all of what he's saying happened he went to prison and lost it all and has spent the last two-ish years trying to rebuild himself better than before.

[@pauls.5815]

You are banging these out, good job man.

[@conmom2534]

Nova released a new song today called did your best and it's really good. Great visuals. Still crying.

[@MrLboydReacts]

It’s on the channel 😀

[@conmom2534]

@@MrLboydReacts I looked! I'll look again

[@KHarmonTCC]

Cancer is a hard hitting song. In 2013 I lost my dad and my sister 23 days apart to different cancers. Tom did a beautiful job with that song.

[@FmlitsAJ]

Just over 7 years clean. I sobbed the first time I heard this.

[@brittanykissner3721]

I cry every time I hear it!!! Sober just over two years. Still battling an eating disorder, getting better though.

[@aprilsarandos8855]

I love how so many songs become your favorite songs. I’m experiencing most of these songs with you for the first time. I’m officially a fan of you both.

[@reneeg9406]

One of my best friends just celebrated six months. I don't think he would have made it through the first 6 weeks if it wasn't for this song and I don't drink

[@imm0rtalshad0w70]

Loved it man. Love all your reactions!

[@DanFrijoles]

I struggle a bit with alcohol. I'm thankfully successful and live a great life, but trying to stop drinking so much because I know it's a problem that could hurt me in the long run. This song helps me fight harder to give it up.

[@sirweebs2914]

Cheers I drink to that!

[@tafinzer]

Just do it today

[@DanFrijoles]

@@tafinzer I mean...I can try lol

[@tafinzer]

That os the goal. Do it just for the next 10 minutes, and then try it again. I have been sober today for the last 35 years.

[@anothersheart1]

“This is my new favorite video for me...” lol. Welcome to the fam!

[@troy9er]

Tom an Nova are great!!! 😉

[@Shoutinthewind]

You say this is my favorite Tom Macdonald song in like half your reaction to his songs. 😂🤣😂

[@amylou6518]

Please do: I don't drink, famous or GFBF(Nova and tom) I'm not well or phonecalls

"This is the war that I'll fight forever." 👈 This.

[@AustinB505]

Definitely a moving song. If you’re not familiar with Madchild, check some of his songs too. Jackel, Structural Damage. He’s featured on a few more of Toms songs as well

[@brittanykissner3721]

Madchild is also apart of a Canadian Hip Hop group called Swollen Members. They have been around since the early 90’s. They won a bunch of awards

[@AustinB505]

@@brittanykissner3721 yes I knew that and I’m aware of Swollen Members. I was just recommending a few songs that I like. Madchild voice sounds weird to some people for a rapper but he has skill.

[@justinsick5083]

4 years for me 🤙🏻🤙🏻

[@luckyenigmas]

:D again... another amazing reaction with tom. YES. he does alot of personal experience songs. this one makes me cryyyy because I know a few personally fighting these things too..

💓 Such a powerful message for anyone struggling with addiction or depression! Thanks for your reaction! #HOG

This is an anthem for those in recovery and those trying to get there.

[@captblacksack5288]

My man, solid pick up on the people disappearing from chairs! Agree about the hook...could you imagine a packed concert singing this at the top of their lungs?

[@ajjohnson4573]

I think tom is awesome this is one of my favorites buy him lol

[@theGiantAngryRobot]

You know what’s hard as F***? Making tracks about your greatest shames and hardships to help others. So much respect to all of them.

[@anthonyrogerson6688]

So glad you reacted to this song

[@reneeg9406]

Maybe not passing from their addictions. But at least relapsing and no longer coming to the meetings😥 Shout out to my friend that he's still showing up for our monthly lunches to celebrate his Recovery🥰🎊

[@chriswhite4212]

great reaction.. this song needs to be an ANTHEM for everyone who is fighting their demons..stay strong people..

[@kennethslayor8177]

If you want a story, you should also do Struggle Jennings "Like Father Like Son", "Outlaw Shit", and then "Your Little Man". After that I would follow up with the Outlaw Shit (Cover) by Struggle's daughter - Brianna Harness. (The little girl depicted in Outlaw shit, if I understand correctly.)

[@shanedaniels6447]

Keep fighting everyone. You can always change. Homeless junkie jr high school dropout. Just finished a Masters degree and teaching credential at age 34. 9 years sober. Lost a gf and my brother to overdoses. Life is tragic but it is also beautiful. Try to love yourself and accept the past or imperfections. Anyone can make a come back story. Don't give up.

[@amylou6518]

#hog army here .. powerful stuff 10 1/2 years alive after 8 years killing myself ❤️ thank you

[@falarine]

Such a good song for anyone struggling with addiction - mad respect for the 3 of them for this song - #HOG4LIFE @MrLboyd - I keep request Dax "Dear Got" and people keep telling me you have already done it but I can't find it - so if anyone can link me it here, that would be great! Thank you!

[@killiandavis1361]

Try out "bout it" it comes in a 3 song collection of old Tom with a longer video. From second album "dream people and the whiskey wars." Pre sobriety

[@jlew13jl]

Another song that fits with this one's message is painful skies by Madchild

[@AidylasiaFirestar]

First time I heard this I cried. My mother was a druggie/alcoholic for most of my childhood. She gave me to my grandparents to be raised so that she wouldn't be raising me in that lifestyle. She left it after my brother was born, never went back (I was 15 when he was born, nearly 17 when she left it all). She fought and struggled the whole time. I remember visiting her at Rehab and at half-way houses before my brother was born. I lost her to COPD in 2017. She struggled until the day she died with her addiction, especially since by that time the doctors had her on 3 small pill-bottles full of pills a day. It broke her heart when my brother fell into the drug scene after all she did to raise him so that he wouldn't. The struggle is real and never goes away.

[@AndyOamo]

I spent 5 years of my life drinking, smoking, and snorting anything I could get my hands on. Great music and my older brothers beating my ass, made me realize I was no good for anyone, not even myself. 12 years of just weed and the occasional drink, I don't even recognize that dumbass kid that I once was. Songs like this remind me of how I almost lost everything, and that things in my life could have been much worse than they are. Perspective is everything, without it you can't grow as a human.

[@richardalexander339]

Pregnant ex killed herself many years ago and the cops tried to put me in jail over it. I vibe so damn hard with this song, cause I lost it and turned to 3 or 4 bottles of vodka a day. Didn’t know where I was most of the time. But I pulled it together. Took a lot, and I still enjoy my beer, but I’m happy with where I am when I remember where I’ve been. By far one of my favorite songs of all time

[@northnova1358]

Their hocks are sometimes perfect in the context of a live show🎧 🎙The audience interaction sing-along like you said. They move the intensity up and down + I can scream them out even when I’m hammered💣⛏

[@missyligon5516]

great reaction ! thank you for taking the time to view Nova and give it so much love. We need this is our lives. !! @/hangovergang @/novarockafeller

[@W4ll_fl0w3r]

He would never say I did it you can too... It's too much like if you want to be happy think happy thoughts ... he knows its sooooo much more then that What he does though is makes sure we know we're not alone... he tells his story because acknowledging your demons is the biggest part of mastering them He let's us know he understands bc hes been there... a never ending battle we can fight together.... we dont get better bottom got better... we're getting better as a family... when one falls another is right thereto help lift them back up.... he put voice to whatso many of us have been too scared to say... showing us it's ok... the fam is a safe place!!

[@jlew13jl]

No lie, I sat and cried for about an hour the first time I heard this.. Didn't even know I needed to hear it. Now it's one of my favorite songs.

[@rightwingfreedom6150]

I wish more reactors would show MadChild the love he deserves! Gotta check out some of his stuff from his latest album!

The people disappearing are there demos as they work through them they go ..just my perception

I had many addictions and vices wich in turn i took decisive advices, stood strong. ...now 15 clean i've found me who friends & family lost ...now needed run away from unknown now my family tree is untainted...good seeds now sewn. Yeah drugs and alcohol striped 20 yrs of my life away and i was dead to my family but God reached out and i gladly took his hand.Great reactions dude.

[@JennJenification]

Once you become an addict, of whatever sort, It is a very long and conscious process to dig your way back out. You basically have to reprogram your brain. But it's worth it to come back...People miss you, need you....losing yourself to a substance above all you have is utter tragedy. What Tom and Nova, (by extension Madchid, Dax, and others demonstrate for us how to find that will, otherwise many of us would simply submit and fade away. This IS war that I'll fight forever. But now I have a general.
