OG VIDEO: • Avenged Sevenfold - So...
ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

Have a great day!!

It actually interlocks with another Avenged Sevenfold song.... The Revs “death note”.... Fiction by Avenged Sevenfold. So eerie and sad.. but badass... The Rev was most of the instruments and vocals. He can sing so good. He says something in Fiction like, “promise me you’ll never feel afraid.” Than in So Far Away they say, “sleep tight I’m not afraid”.. so sad. RIP. #foREVer.

[@woodilicious722]

Fiction was not a “death note” nor a “suicide note”. You’re delusional if you think it is. Jimmy wrote multiple death-inspired songs throughout his career, the fact that Fiction was written shortly before his passing has nothing to do with that. Fiction is no more of a “death note” than Save Me (“tonight we all die young”), Afterlife (the entire song’s death-related theme), nor Brompton Cocktail (literally named after a drink commonly used for suicidal practices). Fiction is only a death note if you’re an idiot. Edit: here’s a few more songs with death-related themes written by a7x. They’ve done it the entire time they’ve been together. Fiction being written before Jimmy’s death is entirely coincidental. -Eternal Rest -IWSYT (Part 1/2) -And All Things Will End -The Wicked End -MIA -Seize the Day -Dear God -ALPoH

[@iamtuckalicious]

Woodilicious okay haha. Didn’t mean to hurt your feelings but if you really don’t think Fiction (a song that was gonna be called Death) isn’t his goodbye than YOU are delusional.

[@woodilicious722]

Temporary Rare Okay. Well using your logic, seeing that they just released “Set Me Free” two weeks ago, we should be expecting “Avenged Sevenfold member M Shadows dies in assumed-to-be suicide; Last memo explained in most recent song” in the headlines one of these next few days, right? Cause they’ve never released any other songs about dying before, right?

[@HEXU77]

YEEEEEESSSSSS!!!!!Like others are saying, I haven’t clicked on a video so fast before!!! Avenged Sevenfold is my absolute FAVORITE band!!!! If you can’t tell I am super stoked right now!!!!! Please cover more Avenged you will not regret it.....if you Witness the change in the lead singer, M.Shadows, voice you will appreciate it even more. He has had to have vocal surgery due to years of screaming during his early years, and has learned to manage his voice since then. From their sounding the seventh trumpet days until now it’s amazing how much they have changed yet still pull in some of their original sound. The back up vocals you hear are the guitarists and some of them are there late drummer. They have worked with string quartets, percussionists, brass, and various other types of musicians, they truly are amazing. They have many influences, a lot of bands that you’ve covered including Pantera. When Jimmy The Rev Sullivan died I was heartbroken, but they have honored their brother and now have a new drummer who he was a fan of and is an amazing drummer as well. I’ve seen them several times live and they’re the real deal, great group of guys. Anyway, sorry for the long winded post......carry on, nothing to see here, lol, except for the fact that YOU ROCK!!!!!!!!!!

I would have LOVED to see that concert, ive bought tickets to see A7x four times but only managed once cause of them cancelling

[@Viralityoflife]

skyler blake they cancelled right after my show because Synyster had a kid

[@Stuntman2304]

47 seconds in. If she says anything bad about Avenged Sevenfold I swear to god.

[@uzuchihaobito672]

I'm gonna hate her

[@Digital_Flayer]

Don’t worry, all positivity

[@noteminemsburneraccount324]

Tbf theyre definitely not as good as when they had the rev which speaks volume on wht he meant to the band and just how amazing he is

[@sharkvlogsandgaming4797]

If she does send her to The Rev he’ll handle it

[@Digital_Flayer]

Shark Vlogs And Gaming That’s rather disrespectful to him

[@archivalplayer1929]

Almost cried watching this. They’re my favorite band and created the bond between me and my best friend. I’m so happy I found RVA react to this. 🙏🏼

[@pH7oslo]

"The future doesn't even exist!" That got nihilistic fast. Excellent.

[@tonksnjoysatan8503]

ALSO for some of the backing vocals were from The Rev since they wanted to use them for another ballad.

[@mathieudeschenes8605]

Jimmy is missed, that song has such an emotional weight RIP the rev

[@CourtneyMarie-ep6ez]

Ugh I still remember it like yesterday hearing about rev 😩😩 I’m so thankful I had the chance to meet him for a minute and get his autograph. So talented. I’m still heart broken.

[@sefasemihsonmez1146]

He was the best of the world. Rip

[@frostymcnuggets8504]

Matt's had 3 vocal cord surgery's and still sounds amazing even though he cant put as much distortion as he used to...avenged sevenfold is the best band EVER!!

[@eduardoceron4636]

This song never fails to make me cry, I get exactly how they felt because I had to deal with he loss of my brother. He suffered so much. The song describes everything so perfectly. A7X one of my favorite bands. Thanks for your reaction to this song

[@OnlyBadVibes935]

I think my favorite part about this video is how she actually did research into the song, i think that this song in particular is very important to know the backstory of

[@judgemental9253]

I can never make it through that snare line without my eyes watering

[@autumn7143]

Awesome song!!! Very cool and I love your reactions.

[@katielynnbunny]

Oof I really hope you react to more of their stuff !! Especially if you wanna hear anything live, basically anything from the LBC show is wonderful, and is also when their drummer (Jimmy the Rev) is still alive. Great reaction!!

[@chronos1111]

I love how hard you try not to swear when you react, Rebecca But when you do its so lovely, because thats what music is about - that release of emotion

[@Frindleeguy]

This is my second favorite group, and I have loved this song for years. Unexpected side effect of watching you watch this video - you helped me experience it emotionally like never before. You are a pretty special person, one can tell from the way you feel feelings.

[@dd5617]

She has to be infatuated with him..... Aren't we all

[@MarktheAirsoftPrimate]

Looks like Mike Patton has some competition.

[@justayoutubecommentator3059]

Boris Johnson you’re so right lol.

[@demonkittenn4641]

Absolutely 😍

[@mathewgonzales456]

Saw the notification and instaclicked. Beautiful song. One of my all time favorites

[@Bassist130]

Love Your Blush and Highlight! Absolutely perfect, and you add plenty of explanation towards the singing

[@chrisalbers3864]

This is my favorite video of 2020 so far. Your reactions make me feel like when I first heard of their music lol.

[@na-cr8rb]

You have a very gifted voice! I wish I had one likes yours-

[@rva]

You do too

[@na-cr8rb]

@@rva ah no I don't lol

[@monochrmatic]

I know im a bit late. But i still remember the first time i listened to this song 6 or 7 years ago. Will always be my most favorite ,the feelings i get cannot be described ♡

[@LemonMeIon]

I think the most hauntingly relevant line is “I tried to heal your broken heart with all that I could”... The Rev was born with an enlarged heart, which would eventually had led to a terminal condition. A7X also has a song called “Brompton Cocktail” which foreshadows how he died.

[@p.y.pgaming9655]

I just wanna to see your react to (Avenged Sevenfold - A Little Piece Of Heaven)

[@TipTheScales27]

P.Y.P GAMING Eat it eat it!

[@hamikierrr]

Come here you bitch!

[@michaelsmoak691]

that was funny, but honestly that one part in the song in the chorus is very very pretty, and matts voice is amazing

[@mpoendi]

No, please don't. She can't handle it

[@willmunkholm5958]

Definitely my favorite A7X song. Sadly haven't found a karaoke bar that has it yet

[@FM-no6se]

I rarely ever cry but watching this made me cry, pretty hard too. A7x got me through a lot back in the day.

[@giorgosdaispyros6989]

You MUST react to God Hates Us live at Rock am Ring 2011 by Anenged Sevenfold. That was M.Shadows' (the singer) voice at its absolute peak. You're going to love it!

[@DustinB19]

Giorgos Daispyros was thinking this too!

[@craighendrickson5012]

I third that!

[@francobriones98]

It gives me chills!! Love it

[@JoJoBanks]

I would love to see you react to their best song which is "A Little Piece of Heaven". (Fair Warning) It's a gruesome song but there are so many vocals you can analyze in the song. The ex-drummer (Jimmy The Rev Sullivan... R.I.P.) and the lead singer (M. Shadows) did most of the vocals on it. It is a master piece that very few rock bands can pull off. They even had the other band members do back up vocals and had a choir come in. It's a dark but beautiful master piece that I feel you can grow to appreciate. Everyone A7X (Avenged Sevenfold) fan loves that song to their core. And I feel, you as a musical artist, will love it too! Hopefully you see this. :) P.S. Love the videos by the way! (Sorry for the Edit) "A Little Piece of Heaven" started out as a simple melody on a piano from the ex-drummer. He was an incredibly creative soul who loved music with a passion. It took them many weeks, if not months, to get the song going in the direction it needed to go. But to have such a dark but master piece of a song like that come from someones mind is incredibly unique and creative! I hope this comment reaches you because the song itself is ten times better then the message. The song shows just how creative and unique Avenged Sevenfold is as a band and why they deserve to be among one of the best metal bands out there!

[@laurenberntson6317]

Always been my favorite

[@jenniperkins4260]

It’s hilarious! “ I always knew my lil dish …” And yes this is true

[@FA-zy7nh]

She made a video about it recently

[@creaturex5705]

He’s not the ex drummer by any means.. he’s no longer living tho he’ll always be the drummer of a7x

[@MySecretDisease]

@@creaturex5705 I was about to type the same thing. My brother died (exactly 10 years after Rev) that doesn't make him my ex brother. He will always be my brother.

[@infin8reactions]

Brilliant analysis!! I really enjoyed reacting to this one too, such a moving song 🤘

[@imcherylynn]

I’ve gotten to hear this song performed live. It’s definitely a whole different (and very emotional) experience with a venue full of people who are also singing along.

[@dumpus89]

Still. Adoring. And introduced my social lady to you! Shes got a lady crush!

[@stephenlang5089]

The most beautiful rock tribute to a great man. Has me in tears every time even after 1000+ listens. 😢 🖤

[@DaddyKratosOfTheShire]

I've been digesting that song for years and still brings a tear and gives me goosebumps.

[@jeffward1106]

Rebecca I would love to see you on Britain's got talent. I'd vote for you a hundred times using all my secret accounts.

[@rva]

Awww thanks so much

[@Dubbel12]

Those are literally the voices I make when I hear guitar solos I know

[@leemiller6977]

I am glad that you enjoyed the song Rebecca. That is my favorite song by one of my most favorite musical acts past or present. The song and album came out a few years before my grandmother and uncle passed away whom I had lived next door to for my entire life. It was a very emotional time and this extremely emotional song really hit home with me. Anywho, keep up the great work and I will surely be back to check out your professional/personal opinions of musicians and how they sing. Cheers!!!

[@hunterhall666]

I never get emotional with songs but this one made me tear up. Love these guys, RIP The Rev

[@edgaravila3938]

Yes, I was begging for this so many weeks ago

[@optimusvader7823]

I Have the chance to see AVENGED SEVENFOLD IN THE HAIL TO THE KING TOUR AND THIS SONG WAS AMAZING PLUS EMOTIONAL . I Remember that in the guitar 🎸 solo at the End they spot a part of the stage with a purple light in REMEMBER of THE REV . I know this song means a lot for the BAND . Thank you Rebecca for another wonderful song 🙋🏻‍♂️🎸🎤🎼!

[@chrisgregory7161]

I love how you engage not just with the technical side of singing, but also with the lyrics and the emotional side. I thought what you said about the main body of the song being almost conversational, like a casual reminiscence of a lost friend among other friends, was really insightful. I'd love to see you react to a couple of tracks (I hope suggesting two isn't some sort of commenting taboo!): - Bent Knee - Holy Ghost (Live at Record Co.) - Leprous - Slave (Live at Rockefeller Music Hall)

[@jeffinmathew7857]

The last part of that song was just freaking amazing!! The depth and range and emotion in it was just so beautifully expressed!

[@kelevrakrew6779]

Damn... I cried again... all these years later and I still cry. Nice reaction.... RIP forever Rev!!

[@xXxFallen11xXx]

its been a while since ive listened to this song. it hit me hard today

[@vambudee687]

8:28 "It was rich, soo much emotional and love" yes indeed, because this song is a farewell song for the loved one they lost

[@MmmmThisIsATastyBurger]

I love how at 7:24 she seems so proud of him for hitting the big notes, really makes my heart warm

[@turnkeydirect]

It’d be nice if she understood the context of the song too though.

[@youdefinitelyknowme4847]

Whoof chills. Every time I listen to it

[@ZeroDeepChill]

Anyone suggest she listen to "Wont see You Tonight Part 1" yet

[@Tayluhhh2010]

I can’t not cry, when I hear this. I loved The Rev.

[@brandonesmas]

Same

[@drakewarner1230]

This song almost brings me to tears every time I hear it. I’ve loved this band since I was young and knowing the meaning behind it is heartbreaking
