Unbearably Sad!! | BREAKING BENJAMIN - "Red Cold River" REACTION!!!

[@AlexHefner]

If you are reading this I want you to know how much you mean in this world! You are incredible! You are worthy! You deserve happiness! You deserve abundance! I am in your corner. I am here for each and every one of you. I really feel like the Hefnerds are all my family! Love you guys so much! I can't express my gratitude in words. Y'alls love and passion is so overwhelming and I am unbelievably thankful. Thank you guys! Have an amazing day!

[@mgzues5948]

Since you reacted to this one you should react to the sequels to this song, the first one is called torn in two and the second one is called tourniquet

[@Viking215]

I lost my two year old son to drowning in July and the lyric, “I can’t feel anything at all” aptly described the immediate aftermath. Other than the deepest or loss, I felt nothing at all. I couldn’t be happy, I couldn’t feel comfortable, and I even lost the feeling of the fear of death. If you’ve recently lost a loved one, I won’t tell you it gets better because it doesn’t. I’ll tell you it gets different, and a new version of yourself and a new version of daily peace will be found. Just don’t quit the day. And then tomorrow, all you have to do is don’t quit that day. You will feel something again.

[@riley1369]

[@yewstew8312]

Ben said when they were coming up with ideas of the song, someone asked him “what’s the darkest, worst feeling in the world?” And he said he thought about his child, “A man losing his child” said Ben. Thus Red Cold River

[@diegomazzaron9191]

@@marcosdib6700 Not really but he is great anyway.

[@asifmontasir6929]

Now please complete the trilogy! IMO one hell of a trilogy they put together in this album! 🔥

[@therantwithgrant2051]

Most definitely.

[@1dylancs]

This is actually the first song a three song trilogy. In order, Torn in Two and Tourniquet are the next two songs. They all fit together into one full story, and I think you’d like them both. Great video, Alex!

[@justsomeguywholosthismusta8495]

Never Again is also a part of the story because the dude who is addicted to that blue drug thing is their in that hell looking like place where the dad gets trapped in Torn In Two. Also, Torn in Two showed all of us that clip from Polyamorous from that random small tv and we also got to see the family that was walking from So Cold... I don't know why the So Cold part was their... Maybe they also died and are walking in that purgatory - esque place too?

[@1dylancs]

Hanabi - Chan I also saw all of those things, but didn’t see them as a direct part of the story. They seemed more like light references to me, but that golden guy may very well be the guy from Never Again, because he did cheat death for the longest time.

[@ddanner8851]

@@1dylancs definitely just light references to their past songs because there is stuff going back all the way to Diary of Jane in it and all the songs don't go with this trilogy, just referenced.

[@otallono]

@@justsomeguywholosthismusta8495 There, not their.

[@devilmaycry09dante]

Tourniquet is slowly becoming my fav song of BB

[@MetalMinion3]

Now you have to do 'Torn In Two' and 'Tourniquet', to complete the story.

[@trishbhatia0]

This is my favorite song by BB !!! The way he screams "RUN, RUN, RUN, RED COLD RIVER" is godly.

[@natebloomfeldt5336]

Fun fact: That is actually the bassist that screams that in the song

[@doofinator4285]

You seemed confused a bit about the plot so I’ll help some. As you stated, his daughter is missing and he’s distraught. They organize a search party and they can’t find her. In desperation, the father basically seeks out a witch doctor that helps him see through the eyes of the killer, essentially in exchange for his soul. The father sees the killer (presumably a friend) chasing down his daughter and he “relives” those memories. Enraged and essentially a shell of a man/monster now, he tracks down the killer and nearly beats him to death before being stopped by the sudden appearance of his daughter’s spirit. I’d also like to stress as others have that this is a trilogy of songs I whole-heartedly recommend...then do something completely different by them like Ashes of Eden. You’ll get a massive appreciation for the depth, artistic ability, and talents of this very underrated band.

[@powerstrokepuller8076]

It's amazing how much Alex half assed this reaction... Really pathetic

[@NitrousFox]

Old comment but that’s crazy I always thought he finished the job, dropping the killer into the water

[@seximexi5820]

You do understand that the killer was his best friend right??

[@jeremyjohnson9222]

Bro, you are the realest hip hop head turned true metal fan on KZbin. All the others are trying like hell to be you 🤣

[@mason5077]

Saw these guys live two years in a row, talk about an amazing live show, you need to see them, also three days grace and chevelle killed it as well

[@ducttapebean7039]

I saw them live last year and I agree there was no three days grace or chevelle but it was still good

[@charlyboy1236]

Saw them in january whit korn the show was fkn epic

[@vanessaaftonvanny3289]

Question did ben scream in your concerts? He didnt at the one I went to in 2016

[@Juroxa]

Awesome song!! Please react to Breaking Benjamin - So Cold! 🤘

[@jessicaturner3299]

Or evil angel

[@craigime]

Yes sir

[@spitz5183]

Dance with the devil.

[@jasonbartley5910]

In the video the dude who took his daughter was helping look for her and comforted him at the 2:37 mark.

[@oneiro7022]

Jason Bartley Shit, dude.... that’s fucked up....

[@robertpalacio1989]

Yep. And basically the Dad sold his soul to the devil to know the truth.

[@steelerbowen8862]

FINALLY!!! Please tell me you are going to react to the other videos that all play out in a series. Next it Torn in Two, then Tourniquet

[@watchtheskies]

My favourite Breaking Benjamin song is 'Breath', it's an older song but great!

[@katschrodinger954]

watchtheskies Excellent song!! Have you listened to the live versions of it? The acoustic version is brilliant!! Ben keeps getting better and better!!

[@biggiecheese9079]

Daily recommendation: Demon Hunter- I Play Dead, Artificial Light, The Negative, Lesser Gods Red- Feed The Machine, Darkest Part, The Evening Hate, Release The Panic King 810- Braveheart, Trauma Model, Fat Around The Heart, treading and trodden

[@TenTonNuke]

I would recommend if he does Demon Hunter to listen to On My Side. Sure it's their popular single but it encapsulates their style best IMO.

[@biggiecheese9079]

TenTonNuke On My Side is great song but I’d disagree as a first song, I don’t think it encompasses their full plethora of sounds, like Lesser Gods or I Play Dead.

[@ericshepherd7786]

Send more recommendations. So far so good 🤘🏼

[@Reevyy]

Thanks for watching this song - one of my favourites of BB

[@TheSamuzas]

Fit For a King: when everything means nothing Alex this band is your type of music perfect balance of screaming and singing

[@johnhardy7248]

The whole *Dark Skies* album is intense 🤘🤘🤘

[@AgunziLFC]

I love BB! They are sooooo underrated, so so good. Powerful video as well. You are correct, the video is about him losing his daughter and going to any and all lengths to find out what happened. After the police and his friends and locals fail to find her. He essentially loses himself and he goes to a " Witch Doctor " to find answers. She does her voodoo magic and he sees what happened and who did it, his " friend " so he goes after him and you see what he does. At the end when hes laying the smackdown in his enraged state, his daughter comes to him in the form of an angel to say its ok, and she is ok and brings him back from the absolute anger and rage he manifested himself into. Very powerful song and video. I can understand what he turned into, if anything happened to any of my children, i know i would absolutely lose it. Great reaction as always! Keepem coming!

[@ebssgd]

Hey Alex, "Red, Cold River", "Torn in Two", and "Tourniquet" form a trilogy of videos that continue the same story, so if you want to know what happens to the dad and daughter, you need to watch them all.

[@slimterrer2374]

Saw this song live and it was amazing there’s just amazing my favorite band of all time helped me through so much

[@designateddriveranddragons8845]

The message of the song is kinda unrelated to the video, but the story of the video is that a man’s daughter goes missing, and he goes out in search for her along with the police and his friend (guy in glasses). When they discover her dead body in the river, he goes to a witch to find out how she died. He learns that his friend kidnapped her and killed her. This ritual also turned him into a demon-type figure. He then confronts and attacks his friend for killing his daughter. He drags him to the river where he killed his daughter. He beats him mercilessly (don’t know if he kills him or not) until he sees his daughter’s angel rise from the water. He reaches for her and that is where the video ends. Watch “Torn in Two” and “Tourniquet” next to see where the story goes from there!

[@donnarodgers113]

I just saw Breaking Benjamin in concert this past weekend. This is the song they opened with! Loved i!

[@brandonhanks8693]

@alexhefner you need to play torn in two and then tourniquet by them. It’s sequel videos to this one

I am so happy u reacted to them again. There are two mire videos that come after this like a story the next one is torn in two if you want to check them out but I'd love it if you did a reaction.

Saw Breaking Benjamin Saturday ..8-17, at the PNC Music Pavilion in Charlotte NC. This was their opening song. The crowd went absolutely crazy. They sounded fantastic. Also saw Three Days Grace and Chevelle . Seeing these three bands in one night..... WOW

[@themetalheadalchemist4284]

This band and this song especially will always have a special place in my heart as the first band I saw live

[@jmfreestuff73]

Please react to BB- Torn in Two and Tourniquet to finish off that trilogy!? And my personal favourite song of theirs the Halo 2 edition of Blow me Away. Love your work bro and you always lift my mood while I am slogging my way through paper work! Love ya man.

[@simonriley386]

This was one of the most craziest breaking benjamin songs ever and always my favorite

[@ipciayaminafontanezreyes2033]

Is a trilogy!! 1. Red cold River 2. Torn un two 3. Tourniquet

[@vanessaaftonvanny3289]

This has now become my favorite song from Breaking Benjamin it's beautiful and tells such a powerful story! Love it when Ben screams it's amazing

[@judgepage6605]

TWO THINGS 1) The guy he was hitting, was someone who was helping him "look for his daughter" he found out he's the one who took her he was even sniffing her red ribbon. 2) this is a video story, you have to have the next lines.. next is torn in two, the tourniquet. The videos tell a movie!

[@slickrick5422]

Just saw them again this past sunday with Diamante,Dorothy, Three days grace and chevelle and holy hell what a show. I been a BB for 15years and they are incredibly talented and their music goes hard. Long live Breaking Benjamin

[@tehmedulla]

Two of my favorite singles by breaking benjamin are Give me a sign and Never Again. Give those a listen! Also check out Starset!

[@blakehaynes9988]

Thank you for reacting to it❤️

[@themetalmaniac1111]

From my understand the story in this video is of a father losing his child only to find her body murdered by a river. The man goes to a witch who hexs him into seeing who killed his child and turns out it was one of the members of the search party and the witch gives him the power to take revenge on him. After which the man drags his child's killer to the river where he left her body and kills him there. Only to have his child decend from heaven and lead him into the afterlife

[@realnametba2]

Their songs give me chills everytime without fail, especially this one.

Finally! Thank you for this. And yes, this song and video is unbearably sad. It made me cry. I don't know who this happened to for them to make this song but my God, that has to be one of the worst things to happen to someone. Made me cry again... damnit

[@maggierezac5820]

@RextheRebel, I lost all three of my kids 30 years ago September 18. That guttural scream stills rings thru my head! That & the word NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!! There truly are no words to describe a loss like that. Just the unending scream of the nightmares & the constant desire to be with them once again... Peace!

Ayyyyyyyyyyy great song. You should react to From The Ashes by RED and The Negative by Demon Hunter.

Now that'll give ya goose bumps too!!!! I read some other comments from some Hefnerds to do a follow up to this song, I agree. On the other hand I also love 'Home' coz of the wizard of oz refrence and 'Breath', watch that one live---epic af coz the audience is singing right along with him and he says "oh you know this one" LOVE THAT!!!!
