Korn is actually the perfect band for you to analyze. JD has always been very personal and honest with his lyrics. Every song is a reflection of the trauma he's experienced over the years. Really hope you do more stuff from Korn.

Watch her reaction vid to Daddy

[@dianaraston8506]

I'd love to see Trash at some point

[@dzeroprime1500]

Fun fact: The intro at the beginning of the video it's from the song "It's on" from the same album.

[@quinnhofmann5399]

Yeah was going to also say - that sick intro she was feeling before her eyes popped open is from "IT'S ON!", which equally explodes just as hard

[@zackkullis5555]

“When I don’t have depression..”. I can’t even imagine what that would be like. It’s like waiting for tomorrow- tomorrow is never here. Tomorrow is always a day away. It’s always beyond reach. What we have is making the best of now, planning, and trying to keep a solid perspective on where we are. Enjoyed the reaction

[@eckertman]

Yes, planning for the future so you have something to look forward too. Not to long for wishing it was.now.

[@WriterEvanMorgan]

Man I feel this. I've been consistently depressed for more than 20 years so now it's just my resting state. I've adapted and learned to exist with it but I couldn't even imagine a day without it. Even when it's not at the forefront I often describe it as a constant lingering feeling in the background that I've just gotten used to.

[@77marioland]

I've heard a definition for depression is the inability to plan for the future.

I really appreciate your analysis of Korn. It’s been eye opening because I used to listen to them when I was younger and didn’t realize exactly how well I related. Helped with some healing

[@martinrezzy]

''that's deep'' KORN is one of the deepest you can ever listen...i love KORNNNNNNNNNNN,i've ever loved their music...i really liked the explanation too.this is something i've never seen in youtube and i'll surely see more of it.👍

[@glendaly3344]

There are so many great songs by Korn. Somebody Someone would be a good one to react to.

[@JMulvy]

You totally nailed it, as per usual. For the video the band starts off being the epitome of music media marketing in the early 2000s: rap, rock, dance, angry, talented, etc. So the corporates are celebrating how much money they are going to make from the band, and so the band walks off because they have no substance in mind. Then Jonathan is 'dealing' with the paparazzi, Fieldy and Head give away their car to the homeless guy, Jason and Munkey crash their car because it is all superfluous. The best part is at the end when they show up for the backyard BBQ. You have cameos from Limp Bizkit, Orgy, Videodrone, Incubus, Kittie and even a not-so-well known Eminem (when he was with Brown Truckers and Kid Rock) was in it too, because in the early 2000s many nu-metal bands would support each other and it is well-known that Jonathan Davis and Fred Durst have been best friends since either of them first started their music career.

[@Justin-nq6kf]

Lot of people dont know but a young Eminem appeared in the end of this video. You can see him around 5:13 to 5:14

[@senecapolanski3657]

Sidenote: in the last few seconds of the koRn video, when the crowd greets the band, you can actually see Eminem in the bottom right corner. His face isn't covered by ads in the original koRn video.

[@scottclark3761]

Jonathan was very authentic and honest. Another is Ronnie Radke of Falling in Reverse. Korn opened the door to talk about a lot of emotions, and FIR has followed in the footsteps, talking about therapy, drugs, and general mental health. It's great to see. Happy Men's Mental Health Month!

[@davidlfort]

Trent, Eddie, Chris, Kurt, Layne, Tori, and many others were all singing about their emotions and traumas before Jonathon did it...

something That keeps me from writing songs is my pain I would say ... I am a guitarist and sometimes brainstorimg trying to write / come up with lyrics makes me flash back / replay scenes like a movie of my life where I suffered things, I sometimes end up feeling like a coward or seeming like a "pussy" to start wanting to cry when writing

I saw Korn for the first time in 96. Im old...lol. head there my favorite therapist. I hope your day is going great. So my sober birthday is the 28th and its getting close so I was hoping still that u all could react to Fear Campaign by my favorite metal band Fear Factory. I think u will enjoy and its a great topic.

[@archwayportraits]

Warning, long post. Oddly this song pairs well with my father's (RIP) favorite poem. It's called "the station" by Robert Hastings, a Illinois born Baptist minister and author. My dad used it in a presentation he would often show. It was so central to his character that we even played it at his funeral, hearing his voice one last time deliver this message inspired me to make changes to improve my own well being. It's a lesson, similar to this song, that I think, hope, will help others as well. It's out of print, so I'll share it here, may it help others as much as it helped me. Tucked away in our subconscious is an idyllic vision. We see ourselves on a long trip that spans the continent. We are traveling by train. Out the windows we drink in the passing scene of cars on nearby highways, of children waving at a crossing, of cattle grazing on a distant hillside, of smoke pouring from a power plant, of row upon row of corn and wheat, of flatlands and valleys, of mountains and rolling hillsides, of city skylines and village halls. But uppermost in our minds is the final destination. On a certain day, at a certain hour we will pull into the station. Bands will be playing and flags waving. Once we get there so many wonderful dreams will come true, and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. How restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering - waiting, waiting, waiting for the station. “When we reach the station, that will be it!” we cry. “When I’m 18.” “When I buy a new 450SL Mercedes Benz!” “When I put the last kid through college.” “When I have paid off the mortgage!” “When I get a promotion.” “When I reach the age of retirement, I shall live happily ever after!” Sooner or later we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. The true joy of life is the trip. The station is only a dream. It constantly outdistances us. “Relish the moment” is a good motto, especially when coupled with Psalm 118:24: “This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” It isn’t the burdens of today that drive men mad. It is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. Regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today. So, stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. Instead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. Life must be lived as we go along. The station will come soon enough -- Robert Hastings "The Station"

Honest to God, are the over exaggerated, hyperbolic facial expressions in the thumbnails really necessary?

How is one supposed to support a channel that makes childish faces like this on their thumbnails. We’re not dumb, you don’t have to do what Minecraft gamer channels do. It’s insulting

[@Høbøbiłłz]

You haveto pause it to see him

[@TheOracleofOsiris]

You should explore the Ethel Cain lore. She touches on some heavy stuff and Ethel Cain is actually a whole character. Ptolemea is off Preachers Daughter. Apparently, for this one song, she takes drugs and this voice comes over as if she is hallucinating. There is a section of the song where she gives out a deathly scream of Stop. By the end of the entire album she gets kidnapped and then killed which August Underground is supposed to be about and it’s based off a movie. The very last song I think is where people believe Ethel goes to heaven. Also look into The God, the message is deep as well. Her song Famous Last Words (Ode to Eaters) is about having an unhealthy obsession and relationship over someone you love and beg for them to stay and eat your entire body to be a part of them, I heard it’s a weird cannibal type song.

"God paged me 'You'll never see the light' - who wants to see? God told me 'already got the life' oh, I see" Basically about Johnathan's imposter syndrome and misconceptions of fame, but can see your angle too. Like he's fed up with it but he's already got the life - too late to turn back.
