Steven Wilson - Routine (REACTION!!!)

[@NYprog]

First of all, I watch a lot of reaction videos. But, now I’m watching yours. This is my new joint. You two are the most beautiful couple I have seen in a very long time. I mean it. Steven Wilson is my favorite artist. This album and this song are among the most powerful and evocative he has ever written. I strongly recommend you see his performances live because if you think that was a powerful emotional experience, try sitting in a audience silently experiencing that song with extraordinary immersive visuals all around you. The entire crowd weeps and it’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever experienced. This song hit me like it did you both when I saw the live performance just 3 months after my own wife’s death (we were together 24 years). I’m a white man and she was an African American woman. There’s so much about watching this reaction that touched me. I’m actually losing it a bit right now as i type this. I encourage you to explore Steven Wilson’s catalog further as it just gets better and better. If you liked that song and video, I recommend Drive Home or The Raven That Refused to Sing from the album of the same name. Either of those will tear your heart out. Another emotional rollercoaster is I Drive the Hearse by Porcupine Tree, also written by Steven Wilson. Please keep doing this: exploring progressive rock music and sharing your love for music and for each other in this channel. ❤️🤘🏼

[@WolfKain]

Thank you for the kind words and I'm so sorry for your loss. Much love to you brother ❤️

[@HalfLifeSistah]

Hi, beautiful 🤗 My heart goes out to you. I hope that, with all things considered, you are managing. Thank you for your beautiful, heartfelt comment. It was tremendous! We most definitely WILL explore more progressive Rock and more of Steven Wilson's music 😌 All the best to you. I hope you sick around and continue to share this journey with me/us😘🌻💖✊🏾🤘🏾

[@NYprog]

George WolfKain I appreciate it. Keep being yourself. It works.

[@riverbe4132]

Fun fact: The album that this track comes from is a concept record. It is loosely inspired by the true story of the strange and tragic death of Joyce Carol Vincent. Joyce was a British woman in her mid-30s who sadly died in her apartment back in 2003. What makes her death notable is that her remains were not discovered until _2006._ Three whole years passed without anyone noticing that Joyce wasn't around anymore. None of her friends, family, or coworkers ever took the time out to check and see if she was alright. Steven Wilson has long been one of my favorite musical artists. I've been a big fan since 2001. I have a recommendation for you: it's one of Steven's most well known and emotionally moving songs. It's called _The Raven That Refused to Sing._ If you ever end up doing a live reaction to it, then I feel pretty confident that I'll be crying along to it with you!

[@evanpaluch6190]

That's fucked up. You never really "have" anyone. You only think you do.

[@madseizon]

The Raven That Refused to Sing makes me bawl like a little baby. I was on a "trip" when I first really appreciated that song and I don't think I'll ever stop getting emotional when I hear it.

[@TeddyBearBonfire]

@@evanpaluch6190 That doesn't quite paint the picture though. In the years preceding her death, she had increasingly cut contact with those in her life, so that when she died there was no further absence to notice. Her sister hired a private investigator to track her down after she'd moved, who did find her address, and so they sent letters, but given that she'd already been ignoring contact, it raised no further suspicion when she didn't reply. Only when bailiffs came to repossess the property due to increasing debt was her death discovered.

[@drevilrodrigues]

Hand. Cannot. Erase is an amazing album. This, Perfect Life, the title song, Happy Returns, so many amazing songs. is with Raven that Refused to sing(and other Stories ) my two favorite from him so far.

[@Cheximus]

@@madseizon I have a few tracks like that. Mostly Frusciante's Empyrean. Peaked about 15-20 minutes in to the album and I've never had another musical experience like it. Drugs mayne.

[@palantir135]

If this song doesn't hit you, you can't be human Shit, I'm still crying now I hear you talking. When I was young, I never showed emotions because I was bullied, and it would make it worse.

[@wtglb]

All I had to do was hear the opening notes and I’m choking up already. Hand. Cannot. Erase. Is an INCREDIBLE album!

[@benevolentautore4463]

As are all of Steven's solo albums for the most part. One of the most prolific and talented song writers alive.

[@timmarciniak4388]

Hand. Cannot. Erase is the greatest album I have ever heard in my life. I’m 50 years old and been listening to music since o was a kid. This album moves me in ways no other album can. A masterpiece.

[@wtglb]

@@timmarciniak4388 It certainly is!

[@benevolentautore4463]

It is an incredible album, but I also love the Raven and most of Steven's other solo efforts.

[@btmalo6817]

You two are awesome! Thanks for being honest and human and vulnerable.

[@Kipex]

For me, this is one of the rare instances where the music video enhances the song, and does so brilliantly. In so many cases the music video is just on the way of actually focusing on the music. This is a beautifully painted story that anyone can relate to, anyone willing to go there anyway, which isn't always easy. Also gotta give it up for Ninet and how well her voice fits Steven's music. Hope you guys get around to Porcupine Tree at some point, which is his previous band.

[@Laughingman923]

Steven Wilson is another artist who is highly regarded as one of the best musicians of our time. Please check out The Raven That Refused to Sing, I can't begin to describe how beautiful yet tragic that song is.

[@iys6890]

Agreed!

[@jeromeclemente3672]

I am at the office doing a mundane job when I saw this video. The music and the video itself is powerful enough. But hearing you sobbing behind made it even more emotional. I'm bawling now.

[@gggo2631]

Wow. This is why I love reaction videos. This is honest and brave. Thank you.

[@Raulnavarro822]

They have good taste of music

[@unknownspaceexplorer]

I actually started crying seeing you cry, although I have listened to this song and seen this video a countless number of times... Thank you! This video touched me on so many levels, your reaction, the music itself, the lyrics, their meaning, your experiences you shared afterwards, then my own memories of loosing people rushing in... Just thank you!

[@chadbennett7873]

I just need to say what a beautiful reaction you both had. I believe Steven himself would appreciate how moved you both were. I was honored to see him live at the Wiltern in Los Angeles in 2015 and this song was played. He ended with the equally brilliant The Raven That Refused To Sing and I can tell you that I really don't remember leaving the theater. His music has changed my life, allowed me to see a different perspective of life than I had been viewing. He said during the show that he "hated" happy music, preferred the melancholy and he's is truly the master of that art form. Genius comes in may guises, and many will not recognize it when they meet it. You obviously do. Thank you for your honesty, your integrity and your passion. I have subscribed.

[@shimson666]

Hearing this for the first time with you guys. I felt like this had a deeper meaning, but once the clip turns to night, it was brutal to my soul. What a beautiful and haunting song. Wow!

[@Kobesteak]

That reaction is the most brave show of emotion I have ever seen. Keep up the good work on your videos. Steven Wilson has a unique ability to bring melancholy and sadness into a song, but still make it beautiful. This is music that makes you think, and you cannot give a song any higher praise than that.

[@amazingronaldo9656]

I was so down and teary after originally watching this video. I enjoy Steven Wilson's music and this one is always hard to watch and now listen to. I can totally understand anyone crying in response to it. It is a terribly tragic story and I think I would be more worried if it didn't elicit some form of empathetic reaction. I almost cried seeing you guys cry. Glad this popped up in my feed! Thank you for sharing your genuine reaction!! :)

[@deliverance9975]

Hi guys, this is a beautiful reaction to a song that touches me every time I listen to it and crumbles my soul when I watch it. I had the incredible pleasure of attending a screening of all Steven's music videos in this May alongside Mr Wilson and animator Jess Cope and it was an emotional experience. This song along with "Drive Home" and "The Raven That Refused to Sing" are masterful, intense pieces of music and animation. Thank you for this. This visceral, emotional reaction is why I am such a fan of Steven Wilson.

[@Dannej85]

This is such a powerful and moving song. Steven Wilson is so good at bringing out emotions through his songs. Showing emotions isn't weakness. Thats why I love this channel.

[@HalfLifeSistah]

Dani! ^_^//// Thank you so much!😊🤗❤✊🏾🤘🏾

[@ThildeBlogWire]

That moved me so much! I weeped irrepressibly for about half an hour. I could relate to this song a lot. I've been to places like those (even not for the same reasons) holding on the day routine to keep on moving to avoid crumbling. And sometimes I would scream where no-one would hear me cry to kind of release some of the pain, even if the physical pain cannot be silenced. That was a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing those golden nuggets. Best regards from France ❤

Congratulations, greetings from Italy.

[@jluck2001]

A friend blindsided me when he recommended Steven Wilson’s The Raven That Refused To Sing. By the end of the video I was bawling. Since then I’ve seen Steven in concert three times and will go again every chance I get. He is an incredible talent!

[@losendos194]

Music has the power to trigger emotions that you don't know are hidden in your mind. This is an incredibly moving song that probably resonates for all of us in some capacity. Everyone sheds a tear at this one! Steven Wilson is an amazing songwriter and performer. Check out some of his earlier porcupine tree catalogue - stunning... You both seem authentic people with real emotions. Will check you out again. Never apologise for your humility and compassion.

[@steveymoon]

This is a stunning song. Steven Wilson is one of my all time favourite musical artists. Thank you for sharing - you guys are beautiful.

Also from Steven Wilson i highly recommend 'The Raven that Refused to Sing' if you're looking for emotional impact. Hearing the track live last year i was an emotional wreck in my seat.... the meaning of the song just hit me

[@ednewton4455]

Seconded, Raven with the video. I always blub 😢

[@saudadessuas]

No need to explain your reaction. If you have feelings, this will make you cry for sure. I cry every time I listen to this song. It’s a song one can go back to if one need it. For me it takes me back to when I lost a newborn child after 19 days, one of my twins. Those days were the worst roller coaster of my life. The words don’t ever let go, try to let go really hits me every time. Thank you for your reaction

[@Nameless-jk6km]

I really hate when people says "why u like to listen sad music? Are u depresed?" and no, hell no. Listen to melancolic music let me speak to myself and think about things that you never'll do with "fun" music. I saw Steven Wilson live in Chile, about 2 years ago, and I cried almost the half concert. He is a musician god. (I'm sorry for my english, isn't my Mother language)

Steve Wilson has combined perfect music, lyrics, and motion, in a truly epic masterpiece. Im fairly new to your channel, and intend to watch whatever you choose to react to. Keep up the great work guys, and thank you.

[@HalfLifeSistah]

Welcome, Bob:)) And thank you for sharing your thoughts. This song makes me cry each and EVEYRTIME I listen to it. But, the video is something special, too, you know? Steven Wilson is a brilliant writer and producer. I look forward to hearing more from him.

Steven Wilson is a fantastic song writer; and the fact he helped Opeth produce the Blackwater Park album makes him that much more special. Excellent reaction.

[@MichoCoban]

I've lost count of how many times I have heard this song and seen this video and without fail it moves me every time. It's an outstandingly good song about the pain of loss and how to try and survive. Your reactions say everything about how much this song can move you.

[@realmusic9777]

Ok.. firstly, Thank you for sharing this. The ultimate reaction. The first time I saw this, Steven Wilson played it on a huge cinema like screen on stage with him and his band performing it. Secondly, your emotion is true and pure, I wanted to hug you both. Thirdly... if you got this far, Try Steven Wilson's The Raven That Refused to Sing Steven Wilson's Refuge unofficial video and the songs Internal Lanscapes, Ariel and One Last Goodbye by Anathema. They are equally emotional. Much love to you both

[@mkbcoolman]

I've come back to this reaction so many times since it was released. I love it so much, for so many reasons. But honestly, my favorite part is when Wolf gently removes Sistah's ear buds after the song is done. "It's ok baby. It's ok." That simple action and those simple words convey such pure love and acceptance. It's quite possibly one of the most tender and romantic gestures I've ever witnessed. It's just so, so beautiful.

[@brianpercival1829]

It gets me crying every time. I know it is coming and when the newspaper hits the floor I am reduced to a weeping puddle of tears. In an instant in time she lost her husband and 2 little boys. Her life is gone. Now existing day to day and that anger inside. I have been a Porcupine Tree fan for a very long time and know all of Steven's work. He is a musical genius. He introduced Jess Copes work in animation over several songs and always look forward to another video with them working together. I have requested other reaction channels to feature this song but no takers on an unknown song I guess. Great reaction to this video. I'm not the only one crying through it.

I'm totally with you when you were crying to this hauntingly beautiful song and video. Every time I listen to this song and watch the video with it I am a total mess and I sob all the way through it. The emotion that this song evokes is incredible. Every word, every note, and every nuance in the song is so powerful that I can't control the river of tears running down my face. It is a musical masterpiece that touches every nerve and resonates in the soul. Steven Wilson is such a highly gifted musician/singer and storyteller. :)

[@buddysaile973]

You guys are so great, thank you so much for giving this the recognition it deserves. SW is the bard of our generation. In his music i can hear the echos of every band i ever loved while growing up. Not all of his music has the same depth of emotion, but almost all of it has the brilliant song writing and outstanding musicianship you see here. Please consider bringing more SW to your station, i assure you that you will find everything that you are looking for that you could ever ask from great music and then some. His music is always hauntingly beautiful and masterfully played by some of the most talented musicians in the world. Drive Home, The Watchmaker, Ancestral, The Raven that Refused to Sing, and Home Invasion Regret #9 are just a few of the tracks that will almost assuredly make it onto your favorites list in no time. Careful though, as some of them like Drive Home will hit you just as hard or harder than this track. You might have to rename the channel Makebrothacry! Thank you both a million times for sharing!

I first watched you reaction video when you released it. It was a relief to be able to share the emotional outpouring with the 2 of you(even if it was on youtube) .I am and was a Huge Steven Wilson fan. I saw the animated video when it first came out and for some reason I felt like I needed to share it with as many people I could so it was great to see you had found it. I come back to your reaction video again and again it is so sincere and I re-live the full emotional impact again and again. You express the importance of empathy toward our fellow human beings ......a feeling that is in sharp decline in recent times. I wish nothing but the best for you both and I will continue to return here to remind me of what it means to be human:)

[@TheTobesOfHades]

SW is the king of melancholy and he has many, many songs that will bring out your emotions. His solo stuff has a tendency to be darker but there's plenty of PT songs that are very depressing. Weird that it can make you feel so good. It's hard to say where to start if you're interested in exploring more of his catalog, my favorite of his solo work is Grace for Drowning. On any album, it's not only the lyrics and subject matter, Steven also surrounds himself with some of the best musicians of our time, they know how to match the moods of the songs.

[@TheOligoclonalBand]

I love your reaction and your discussion afterwards. You are a sweet couple. Yesterday I went to the funeral of a much loved relative and thus this song hits extra hard. Steven Wilsons songs can be so emtional. This is one of the songs that makes me cry anytime anywhere. I saw him play this live and I did cry. Hand. Cannot. Erase is a masterpiece and Steven Wilson is one of the greats.

[@alecwelzant]

I love everything about this song and I'm really getting into your reaction videos. I'm male and masculine (active duty military, crush my physical training test every time I take it), yet I love and need songs like this. I shed some tears watching this song with y'all tonight. For me it's not really about a shared experience. I've only lost one family member in my entire life: My grandfather, who was an absolutely amazing person (but that's another story) and who died when he was almost ninety after we all saw him decline for years... But I have a daughter. The faintest idea of the remotest possibility that she could precede me into the grave is an absolutely overwhelming concept. The claymation woman in this video with the incredibly expressive eyes... Yes, she is a fictional character, but there are too many parents in this world, in this country, who have had to deal with the same pain. A thousand miles away from me, my brother and his wife are going through such a nasty divorce that I have to worry daily about either of their safety. I have to worry more about their daughter, only a year younger than my own, who has to find a way live through their toxicity. Her life is devastated. There's no other way to describe it. But there's a shred of hope for her because of the sheer number of relatives (grandparents on both sides, aunts and uncles, myself included) who are ready to step in and do what it takes to give her a safe place to try and rebuild her life, if and when that becomes an eventuality. But there is no shred of hope left for children who die. Too many in this day and age, in this country, do so as victims to senseless violence. Death is irrevocable, final. This song is about that and made more poignant through the lens of the mother they left behind. I can empathize with this despite never experiencing anything like it. There's nothing wrong with shedding a tear about it.

[@WolfKain]

There is nobody writing and performing music today that is better than Steven Wilson. A true artist who labors over both the music and the lyrics. It's not all "prog" either - he is incredibly diverse. Explore his catalog, but if you want to listen to a couple more sad, but beautiful songs, try The Raven that Refused to Sign, Postcard, or my favorite of his less "prog" songs, Lazerus (a Porcupine Tree song).

In the video the detail of ever crying eyes on the character is amazing This song focus something so often is ignored. Routine can be a therapy and a prison at the same time. A therapy letting you avoid the issue at hand, but as it is letting you avoid it is just delaying to a moment further in time. The buildup of frustration on the song coming from the forced Routine she is having is amazing, and the final cry from Ninet Tayeb sounds so therapeutic at the end.

This is the one of the saddest moments I've ever experienced. Between the video and your reaction to it, the emotion cuts to the core of my being. How utterly amazing is Steve Wilson to have conceived of something so touching and yet vivid and real. Your reaction was so human and divine that you cannot help but to be moved. This life is experiential, friends. We are the universe and its creator, be it a God or whatever conscious entity you wish to label it, all experiencing itself. We are afforded all such emotions and experiences so as to be at one with all that provides us those means. We are more than the sum total of cells that comprise us. We are light and we are love. Live like you mean it my friends, because you deserve it.

Oh and Gojiras song Low Lands. Once I read what the song was about and watched the video, I cried like a baby. Such amazing writing.

Those last two lines are, to me, about the contradiction inherent to grief - you have to move on, yet you should not forget. You let go, but you don’t let go.

Every time I watch this video or listen to this song my eyes get wet. It is so good! And I have seen a number of reaction videos to this song, but never as open and honest as this one. Thank you so much for being vulnerable, honest and open to your audience. I wish many more people would do that! In case you want to see more of these, please watch more Steven Wilson songs: Drive Home or The Raven That Refused To sing. And I can also recommend to listen to the complete album Hand.Cannot.Erase (which also holds Routine). It is a concept album about a women who was found in her appartment 3 years after she passed away and nobody missed her...

Steven Wilson is an incredible artist. He has been likened to the David Bowie and with good reason. This such a brilliant moving piece, the super animation videos with this is excellent. He has gorgeous melodies, and is the true spirit of modern prog rock.

This moves me.... and I love that it moves you too.

[@DaJesta088]

"The Raven That Refused to Sing" is another Steven Wilson song for which I'd love to see your reaction... Maybe his best song.

[@rachelm3326]

This is the first video from you guys that I watched and I loved and cried with you. Looking up for more. ❤️❤️❤️

I knew when she was tearing up before 7:50 she wasn't ready for that part. That song has put me in tears just like this many of times. Easily one of the best and I have so much respect for her for showing that emotion.

[@andystokes8702]

There are three pieces of music that move me to tears every time - Dream Theater, The Spirit Carries On, Routine by Steven Wilson and also Pariah, again by Steven Wilson. I have seen Steven Wilson perform Routine three times with Ninet Tayeb singing, the last time was at the Royal Albert Hall. I have no problem admitting I just sobbed like a baby all the way through it. If this doesn't at least make you choke up you're just not listening properly.

[@peterfreund2808]

Especially with Ninet singing it there is no point in even trying to hold back the tears. At the show I looked around an I saw men, women, all ages either sobbing or with tears running down their faces. I have never seen anything like this before. THE most emotional moment I have ever experienced at a concert.

[@andystokes8702]

@@peterfreund2808 I would agree with you. I went with my daughter, she's in her 30's. She had exactly the same reaction during the encore - The Raven. She wasn't the only one trying to hold it together,

[@psikopatta88]

What a beautiful reaction... It is impossible not be moved with this beautifully sad song.. It touches wounds so they can heal

[@wtglb]

Oh God, the video for this song had me weeping like crazy, what did it do to Sistah?

[@glyngasson8450]

Truly beautiful song and wonderful video

[@franckbizouard3357]

So beautifully sad song. I crie every time. I expected a fountain for you Sistah ;-) Glad you've enjoyed this fantastic song that much.

[@xenophon343]

Have you tried Drive Home by Steven Wilson?

[@RickPaniagua]

This reaction was beautiful. Seeing this vulnerability made me understand the depth of this song. I appreciate it so much. Fuck the trolls. You are genuine humans, and you bring me hope.
