Ronnie is a very unique guy. His vocal range is amazing. He puts a lot of passion and emotion in his music. I don't care what it is he makes you feel it in your soul.
I agree with you that "Last Resort" by Ronnie is something incredible, something that turns your soul upside down and breaks your heart. A masterpiece. Thank you for your reaction.
Thank YOU for watching, and for sharing your thoughts!
@@iamdondawsonNot sure if you saw but there is a video to Jacoby listening to it before it was mixed at the studio.
Jacoby gave his blessing to Ronnie and even some guidance in organization I believe.
@@iamdondawsonIf Papa Roach had done the song slower, as Jacoby wanted when it was written, it never would’ve become the hit that it did. Radio won’t play Ronnie’s version. It’s too descriptive and visceral.
Wow I haven't thought about that soundtrack in ages but it slapped honestly. I listened to it like crazy.
Deeper Underground by Jamiroquai is perpetually stuck in my head.
The revisioned version video really at the beginning visualizes my depression. I can feel nothing and feel alone. And im geting help but Ronnie Radke gave me a visual of it.. and i thank him. Cause i felt alone too long
You should send him a letter or tweet and tell him. He responds to fans.
Glad you did both versions!!!
Me too!
I just found your channel and as a F.I.R fan,I’m so glad you discovered how amazing and talented Ronnie is,this song really hits because of the way he sings it. People have said the papa roach one was made for angsty and rage filled teenagers and Ronnie’s version was made for those broken adults and I totally agree,I love everything about the way Ronnie reimagined it
Loved your video man. And believe me when I tell you I’ve seen HUNDREDS of react videos to Ronnie’s music.
Thanks so much! I plan on recording and posting a reaction to their new single today, what do you think about the song?
OMG whitey ford… that takes me BACK haha great album… FIR is unreal. Ronnie is a musical savant. No question.
Thanks for playing the original. It’s been a long time since I heard it… the way I hear it, PR’s version was for us when we were angry teenagers. Ronnie’s version is for us as broken adults lol
This is one of those songs that the emotion behind the reimagined version is so powerful beyond words, I feel like it was meant to be. This is right alongside Hurt done by Johnny Cash for me. You can make something this masterfully without having gone through the pain. 💔❤️🩹
Whitey Ford sings the blues is an awesome album!
Hi Don, I liked your reaction because I see that there is no fake reactions, it is pure honest and I like that. The same way I have seen that you not always react positively to what you see... not like other serial reactors that are just a copy of each other. Therefore I would like to give you my congratulations! This kind of approach may not deliver you the views that other people get at the beggining (because the fans are looking only for possitive reactions). But you are the real thing! My advise, if you want to see yet another face of Falling in reverse is that you look at the songs "voices in my head" and "Zombified". Hope you will like them (but even if you don't like them, I hope you will be honest as you always are!)
Thanks so much for the kind words! And thanks as well for the recommendations 🤘🏼
I liked that you watched/listened to the original before experiencing the re-imagined version. As an observation on my behalf; you talked through the original, but with the rendition of Ronnie Radke you were entranced. (so was I). I hope you are having a good day and wish nothing but positive energy for you.
I appreciate you checking out my reactions! Thanks for the comment as well. Glad to have you 🤘🏼
Great reaction, first time I’ve seen both videos back to back. The poppa roach version came out when I was a teen is the loud angsty teenagers ballad, the FIR is the more melancholy version that resonates with my age now.
Since the first time I heard the reimagined version, I’ve said that the original is like a scream of exasperation and the reimagining is a plea of desperation. So good it hurts.
I grew up with Papa Roach's song and I don't know what it is but i listened to this version of Ronnie a million times now and it still hits me hard everytime. I'm not an easy crier but this always gets me. Ronnie did something incredible here.
The best way I've seen these two songs described is papa roach's version is teenage angst raging against the world versus FIR's version is an aduld crying for help in a world as messed up as ours is today. Loved the reaction, keep up the good work!
The best explain I have heard is papa roachs version the teenage angst and anger while Ronnie’s is the adult who is giving up
Love voices in my head and zombified by them too.
Great reaction! The 2 reimagined songs you can do back to back to see the deference like this Last Resort. I'm not a vampire, I'm not a vampire revamped & The drug in me is you, the drug in me is reimagined ☄️🔥
Hi friend! I am excited to see someone seeing FIR for the first time!
I have seen them in person three times just in 2023.
My favorite songs by them are:
Just Like You
Game Over
The Drug in Me is You (original and reimagined) ((and if you watch them watch back to back))
Right Now
Brother (that made me cry)
Tragic Magic (which he said is straight hate to Escape the Fate)
Edit to say: of their older songs. Voices in my Head, Zombified, Popular Monster, Voices in my Head and this reimagined are also fuggin AMAZING.
So happy you did both versions. I love both for different reasons. There is a video of Ronnie showing the lead singer for Papa Roach Jacobly Shaddix the unmastered version of this and hw loved it and said it should be in movie. Great Reaction , just subbed! Much love❤
I watched that video of Ronnie and Jacoby right after I posted this. I loved it!
Love Ronnie’s version. It’s incredible. ❤
same reaction when I first heard the Falling in reverse cover for Last Resort. A recommended band I personally like is From Ashes to New The Future album and All Good Things, Hope in Hell album. They are both Alt rock
Love both papa roach and falling in reverse.
Ppl hear hear this song now..great n the past but powerful in the future..what artist need to do take the old songs and turn them around in there own way.
Ronnie radke has such a vocal range, and i have listened to the original many times but never really listed to the lyrics before Ronnie's version.
Suggesting zombified and I'm not a vampire revamped, but ronnie has so many good songs its hard to choose 😁😂
I'm sure people have already suggested but you gotta check out I'm not a vampire and the drug in me is you. Both have remade versions. It's great for seeing Ronnie's growth over the years.
I just posted The Drug in Me is You/Reimagined this morning! czcams.com/video/sZTdjRsS6g0/video.html
Another amazing reaction, thank you! You are going to go far with your channel!! I agree with popular monster, ZOMBIFIED, voices in my head, two reimagined songs, the drug in me is you and the drug in me is reimagined I’m not a vampire and I’m not a vampire revamped
Second this!
Thank you thank you thank you! I keep seeing recommendations for these reimagined versions, so I will definitely make those happen soon!
Sean Rooney did an amazing job with this and the reimagined songs. Looking forward to what Sean releases next with Ronnie :)
@@Grimlock1975 composer? Producer?
@@iamdondawson Sean composed. orchestrated and played piano on this and the reimagined songs. Sean sent Ronnie the modern equivalent of a mix tape of classical versions of FIR and other songs. Sean is a youtuber and says there will be more songs coming out but won't spill the beans any further :)
If no one else has suggested it, you should consider checking out Jacoby Shaddix's reaction of Ronnie's reimaginesd version of the song. It's something special.
Oh, and you got at least more subscriber for this one.
Thank you my friend! I watched that video shortly after I posted this one. I wish more artists would share stuff like that!
You are right, the lyrics have such a different impact with the way Ronnie delivered them in this version of the song. Another comment recommended great songs to react to next. I’d also add the trilogy, but listen in this order for the full impact: Losing my Mind, Losing my Life, and Drugs.
A side note: I’d highly recommend checking out the band called Bad Omens. A great metal band that plays around with their sound and the lead singer Noah Sebastian has an amazing vocal range. Songs to consider: Like a Villain, Artificial Suicide, Death of Peace of Mind, and The Grey, but there are many more great songs by them.
I saw Bad Omens open for A Day To Remember in 2022, and I remember really enjoying their set! They’re on my list for future reactions!
Hi! Just subbed because of FIR. Excellent reaction! I would love you to react to 'Voices in my Head." It's the first song I ever heard from FIR and Ronnie and I've been a fan ever since. Thanks!
Glad you liked it. This is probably my favorite cover of all.
Happy new year and greetings from Germany
Happy new year and thanks for saying hi!
If you like this, you should watch the original versions of The Drug In Me Is You, and I'm Not A Vampire and then watch the reimagined/revamped versions (both versions by Falling In Reverse)
Brother, you nailed that. Awesome to see you appreciate that brilliant performance. Just incredibly done by Ronnie and yes, heart racing, hairs on the back of the neck stuff. You felt,it man, as we all do with this one.
Looking forward to more FIR
The back to back reaction works really well. Thank you!
Thank YOU :)
Please do popular monster by falling in reverse. Also zombified, voices in my head . I could go on! Lol. New subscriber from England.
Thanks for the recommendations, glad to have you here!!
Great reaction. I watch all the FIR reactions!! New sub!!
Thanks, and welcome!
Please listen to popular monster, voices in my head, zombified, and both versions of “the drug in me is you”❤❤you will love them
All on my list!! I’ll get to them all as soon as I can!
And now Watch the World Burn and Ronald!!!
Something to consider, A capella group VOICE PLAY’s version of “Nothing Else Matters” by Metallica. It will blow you away.
Interesting, I usually don't like a capella songs, but maybe I'll give it a go!
Wow...I creep crying after so many times watching this. Thank you for an amazing reaction.
There is a video where Ronnie shows it to Jocoby, the singer of Papa Roach. You should check it out too. Greetings from Switzerland 🤘🏽🔥
Great reaction! I love Ronnie reimagined versions are always EPIC!! He has reimagined two of his own sounds The Drug in Me is You (original) and The Drug in Me reimagined: and I'm Not a Vampire ( original) and I'm Not a Vampire revamped. Its good when you listen to them back to back.
To me who grew up with the papa roach version, I feel that the original is the person in the moment and the cover is the person years into the future looking back to that moment and remembering being in that situation.
Love that perspective!
That's the only perspective that makes me able to even get through. I personally love the original and find the reimagining lacking. Not lacking but..... some parts just don't match up i.e. Don't give a F if I... With a slow piano? That just sounds weird AF. Anyway, it did get better
@@stephaniewade2973 I’m with you! He could’ve taken some creative liberties and altered some of the lyrics to fit the mood of the song, but it’s still a spectacular cover.
@iamdondawson @stephinewade2973 I agree with both of you. I find that even though the Falling in Reverse one is good, it is lacking in the power of I don't know how to word it. I think about ferocity, madness, pain, hurt, and expressing it with the growling of the song. The new one is powerful but not in the same way, so it lacks.
Loving your reactions man! I'm making my way through them all slowly. I subscribed to the channel and also followed you on Spotify and really dig the sound on before the fall.
So glad to have you dude! I appreciate the support. Thanks a ton!
People have already recommended their newest hits, but you should react to a few of the older songs too, like “God, If You Are Above…” “Born to Lead” “Chemical Prisoner” “Brother” “Fuck the Rest” “Self-Destruct Personality” “Just Like You” “Stay Away” “Raised by Wolves” and more! Their first 3 albums are just Amazing! Coming home has some good songs too
This is the first I’m seeing for some of those titles! Thanks for the recommendations 🤘🏼
Yea from popular monster on falling in reverse has just been going up! Losing my mind , losing my life, and drugs are right before popular monster really good as well. They are a trilogy and go together
Word, I'm so tired of people recommending the biggest bangers from post Covid
You should listen to the trilogy, losing my life ,losing my mind and drugs
I love the fact you admitted it and did it!
It's amazing how the same words can have a whole different feeling based on delivery
I'm not a vampire and I'm not a vampire revamped by falling in reverse next please
Ronnie showed this version to Jacoby before releasing it and he loved it
sometimes you need the music, sometimes you need the lyrics
I think Ronnie gives the text the right, worthy framework. The Papa Roach version is too rocky for the seriousness of the lyrics. That's exactly what Ronnie conveys in this song, the pain and the fight with and against evil thoughts. Surely only people who have psychological problems and fight their demons every day can understand this. How often her mental world collapses and threatens to bury her. How many times do you think, “I can’t go on like this” and fight your way out, only to find again and again, “Nothing is okay.” But you keep fighting, every day. They fight with all their strength against being buried under their collapsing world. The sad thing is that too many people lose this battle, ultimately running out of strength and being buried under their collapsing world.
I am not a vampire, original vs revamped
It's coming soon!
Also love your energy, am definitely subscribed for future reactions 🤙
Grateful to have you on board!
Jacoby shaddix dealt with a lot of depression and drug abuse and his mom leaving when he was a child
If you want a really emotional punch, I highly recommend Brother by Falling In Reverse. Actually all of their songs I've heard are exceptionally good.
Gotchu man!
am a HUGE Creed fan. Human Clay was one of the albums that shaped me growing up. Also am a Falling in Reverse fan and i just subscribed because you have great taste obviously!!
Just a small comment to help you, please don't overlap your picture with the music because when the image is bright (White, Yellow, Orange) we don't get to see your face reacting and man we love that. Just put the screen on any corner. Falling in Reverse content is not copy rights protected, so have a blast!
Human Clay baby! That album doesn’t miss!
Heard you loud and clear about the visuals. I put the music video in the corner on my latest reaction as per your advice :)
If you enjoyed this re imagined song. Then you need to check out 2 of Falling In Reverse Songs done about 12 years ago and their remakes of their old songs. For your enjoyment do them in this order.
The Drug In Me Is You (OLD) - The Drug In Me Is You Re-Imagined (NEW)
THEN DO THESE OTHER 2 AFTER
I Am Not A Vampire (OLD) - I Am Not A Vampire Re-Vamped (NEW)
People have mentions the drug in me is you double. Ypu also have to do the i am not a vampire double aswell. 👍
You can also check out when Ronnie let Jacoby Shaddix of Papa Roach hear his unmixed version. Jacoby loved it and gave his blessing.
Another cover that Falling In Reverse did was Coolio's Gansta's Paradise. From interviews, Coolio's son likes Falling In Reverse so Coolio approached them to have them do a cover. Coolio is also in the video.
There is a triology that you can watch also. In order: Losing My Mind, Losing My Life, and Drugs.
In addition to other suggestions, I love Superhero, Coming Home, and Follow Me from the Coming Home album.
He has tongue in cheek ones like Bad Girls Club, Game Over (not an official video), Good Girls and Bad Guys (this video is hilarious), and the extended video for Just Like You.
I'm looking forward to watching your reactions to Falling In Reverse.
On a different note, you should really check out more Papa Roach songs. Pretty much any of them.
Great info, thanks so much! I actually watched the Ronnie/Jacoby video shortly after I posted my review, it was recommended to me, and I love seeing stuff like that! Can’t wait to get into some of your recommendations 🤘🏼
Don't forget coolios gangsters paradise cover Dawson 👍
if you havent already please do IM NOT A VAMPIRE AND IM NOT A VAMPIRE REVAMPED
They’re on my list!
Ronnies vocal range is insane.. and alot of people dont realize that the background set of this video is a continuance of the Watch the World Burn video
Ha! That’s awesome, seems so obvious now that you’ve pointed it out.
@iamdondawson Yeah man, Ronnie can Music that's for sure!!!
I love that he puts the world back together.
Tell yeah what to sing a song that someone else sang in my decade would b sooo hard to do but it was done .
Dark complected Alex Hefner!
u can watch sound of silence - disturbed, is epic :)!
I’ve heard it before so it wouldn’t work for a reaction, but you’re definitely right!
In my opinion Disturbed's version is one of the best renditions of a song ever. I have tickets to see Falling in Reverse open for Disturbed in February. (I saw them open for Avenged Sevenfold in September but I mainly went for FIR. I love Disturbed also, so I can't wait)
@@heartofdixiechick587 not gonna lie.. i envy you right now xD! Avenged sevelfold another elite band xD!
@@iamdondawson the way they did it... man... i can't hear it in another way! keep it up! :)
@@Turconif Yes! Falling in Reverse are one of my favorites and the final testament (for me at least) to a band's/singer's talent is how good they sound live in comparison to their studio recordings and FIR was amazing live. I don't listen to Avenged Sevenfold as much but they were really good live. There music is loud and hits you and it was great. I'm so excited to see Disturbed. David Draiman seems like an awesome human and he has an awesome voice. I've wanted to see their version of The Sound of Silence in person ever since I saw them play it live on Conan.
You should check out I'm not a vampire revamped that's another good one
If you want another case where the vocalist singing a song changes the meaning in a massive way, give Hurt by Nine Inch Nails a listen and then listen to the cover of Jonny Cash
100%. Another far less serious example (although just as impactful) is Alanis Morissette’s version of My Humps by the Black Eyed Peas.
Please react to super hero by falling in reverse
This is one of my favorite ones
The the vocal and instrumental production and the music video are beautiful... buuuut, im not the biggest fan of this cover personally. Obviously its subjective and this isnt bad by any means, but im just not a fan of this one. Id recommend their original song coming home, beautiful imo. Hope you and your family have a safe New years! 🎉🎉
Hey man! Happy new year to you and yours as well!
Paper roach I think I need help.
While I love the Papa Roach version, I have to be in the mood to listen to it. Ronnie's version... it never gets old. I can listen to it 10 times in a row and I get choked up and goosebumps all over my body.. Every. damn. time. Last Resort has become Ronnie's song... he mastered it... completely. No question. He truly captured the true emotion behind the subject matter... sadness and desperation. I thank Papa Roach for the words to express feelings that are so hard to put into words... but Ronnie took those words and made us feel and process the pain in those words. I won't even get into the visuals in the videos... that just brings it all to a whole new level. Great reaction. I look forward to more of your content.
He has a good voice, but I prefer the original because it has that energy you spoke of. It loses it significantly. Two songs with two different emotions.
Papa roach wrote the song based off their friend that attempted scuicide at the time
But Creed was epic ha ha really?
Welcome to the Ronnie Rabbit Hole 😈
FiR & Tom MacDonald will double your subscription base. 😉
It would be great if you could react to a band that formed this year. The name of the Band is „All For Metal“. All of there songs are awesome and the videos are well made. For the first song I would suggest the self titled song „All for Metal“
I just checked out their CZcams channel (I didn’t watch anything, just wanted to see what kind of content they had) and I’m actually very intrigued! I’m gonna add them to my list of reactions to get to. Thanks for the recommendation!
