korey cooper john cooper seth morrison jen ledger skillet alex victorious hero skillet hero christian rock skillet save me legendary - Hudba
The girl singing is the drummer and was only 19 when this was made
Jen Ledger is awesome
I hope she is a regular vocalist in their songs, I LOVE female vocals! And she did a GREAT job!
@@mikehall4190 she's got her own band too, just search for Ledger
@@mikehall4190 yep man. she is rocking
I thought she was in her mid 20 when hero came out
You need "whispers in the dark"in your life
Favorite song by them.
It’s an amazing song 🙏💪💪💪
YES!!!!!
Please do it 🙏🏻
Agreed
Fact: You don't have to be Christian to love and enjoy Skillet
trust
Facts
Very true. I'm not christian and love them.
Can concur. Not religious, but love Skillet and their lyrics.
We all gain something different from the same thing, at the end of it.
Big facts
I have to say, as a Police Officer in Europe, this song gets my Tearducts every time.
I have seen so many families fall apart because of suicides or Crimes.
I have seen so many people die, no matter what the cause, be it accident or intent.
I have seen People cry because they were given the dignity of beeing treated as a human being.
I have seen friends and collegues break due to the long term stress.
I have cradled dying people in my arms to keep them comfort until they passed.
I litteraly start tearing up in the first 5 seconds of this song.
Just keep that in mind.
You're a hero :)
God bless you. I hope your day is wonderful.

God bless u oficcer!
Hes discovered jen, its game over fellas
Hell yeah 😂
ITS TOASTY TIME (killing floor 1 btw)
The moment I heard Jen it was over😹✌️
The Jetset Nerd were in the endgame now
Wait until he discovers that Jen Ledger and Korey Cooper did a side project called Ledger. I just discovered this as well today.
AWAKE AND ALIVE BY SKILLET, by far the best song they have.
Disagree whispers in the dark is better
And rebirth, comatose, Lucy, alien youth
No one here yep
Awake alive is 🔥
To me The Resistance is my favorite
This was Jen's first album with the band.. and she added the missing link to the sound..
Edit: Salvation, the first song where she's the lead just echoes that.. and its only kept going since ..
yes she makes it so much better
Best drummer ever imo. She’s awesome
Jen added the cherry on top to an already awesome band :)
I've heard it said many times that Jen made an already good band great.
if you want more SKillet, here:
Not gonna die
Comatose
Waking up
Falling in the Black
Comatoseee
Also:
Invincible
Legendary
Undefeated
To Much to count!!!
EJM Alien Youth
Best Kept Secret
Rebirthing is a good one.
My guy edit waking up to awake and alive 😂
Whispers in the Dark by Skillet. You're welcome.
That song has gotten me through some dark times
I’ll agree with that
Oh yeah please!
Skillet: Whispers in the Dark. Do it now! lol
Ami P. The live video when two guys started with a violin and bass was epic!
Yeah do it please
Yes, absolutely!
It's so awesome to have seen a Christian band become so popular over the years. I've been listening to Skillet for at least 5-6 years and they've helped me realize that there are more ways to worship (if you interpret it that way) than the common contemporary music we hear in churches and on the radio. God bless this band!
Facts 🤘🤘
10-12yrs for me
It was the first band I got hooked on
Amens's Lords's.
Whenever I hear this song I now think of the firefighters in Australia right now, keep them in your prayers please, I have family in NSW
That's why music is great. Different interpretations through life experiences. Prayers to your family.
Listen to Comatose(I like its layering) and Whispers in the Dark(fantasticness).
Abram Tabor those are my two fav songs by them thank you !!!
Really good songs
Alex, the female singer is the drummer she sings while drumming!! Great live show.
The drummer/singer is Jen Ledger....
@@loganshort1324 I think jlm10181978 meant to say to Alex, (the guy reacting) that the female singer is also the drummer, not that Alex is her name:)
@@johanwikman2799 I realize that now after reading it again.
Yeah sorry about the confusion my grammar obviously isn’t the best!
And one hell of a voice.
This song needs to be reignited now, as an anthem against COVID-19.
Among other things now😢
@@alanwiggins47 facts
Nawh, I'm far more worried about the Marxist revolution that's being attempted in the west. Covid would spread like wildfire in a work camp.
exactly
More like against the government
"It doesn't seem like they are pushing their views on you, just making quality muaic." PREACH XD
I feel all Skillet songs can be interpreted any way you want too. Some songs have more obvious lyrics that relate to their religion. But to me, I just hear a bunch of awesome rock songs from a band I love to death
Yeah. All of their songs can be interpreted as religious or non-religious. For example, their slower and more heart-felt songs can be seen as love songs.
Skillet - Awake and Alive have the same cool combination of male+female vocal.
And don't forget about whispers in the dark and other songs.
Next Skillet song you should listen to has to be Whispers in the Dark
The first one i ever listened back in 2006, still my favorite song from them
Or The Resistance to mention some new stuff
I like the thirst is taking over from back in the day...
This song gives me goosebumps 😭😭😭😭
YES! One of my favorites! That and Falling Inside The Black
True and Fact: The Rain was real it really rained on set of them playing.
Do Skillet "resistance"!!! U won't be disappointed.
buuuump!
YES! MY FAVORITE SONG!! dude the outro of the song is amazing AAAAAAA
YES YES YES YES
YESH
Best song out of any of their albums (IMO)
Listen to Awake And Alive - Skillet. Who else agrees???
🤘
Second that , awake and alive is a must listen
Yuss
It's one of their top songs! He definitely needs to react to it.
Fairyslayer Gaming the cure by wolves at the gate is a solid choice as well
The female (jen ledger) has her own album too
Well that's awesome, I'm going to look her up. I LOVE , ANY song that have female vocals, and I really liked her with the rest of Skillet. (Who are also new to me, and I liked them)
@@mikehall4190 you're in for quite the ride
Michael Hall you love a song if it has female vocals...
@@mikehall4190 the lead singer has a ep band too and its pretty dope too called fight the fury
@@DemonGamingLLC Yep, Evanescence, Halestorm, Nightwish, Within Temptation, Skarlett Riot, Eva Under Fire.......
I absolutely love the majority of skillet's songs. The mix of Jon and Jen's vocals is awesome.
Skillet is one of my all time favorite bands. I've seen Skillet live 11 times and Jen Ledger's slide project live 3x. I've met the band snd have tons of merch including sighned merch. Jen Ledger is the best girl alive(both in looks, Personaly, and talent ) her snd the band have changed my life and helped me get closer to Christ. Also excellent choice if Jen as thumbnail. She my celeb of the last 9 years and u should react to her side Project Ledger
Ryan Smith I know the band personally and played with John and Jen
I wish I could meet them but they don’t come to Canada too often.
You do realize you can’t take any of that stuff with you when you die, right?
@@michaelshields7777 Doesn't mean you can't enjoy it while still alive... just don't attach your sense of self to it.
The drummer Jen Ledger, has so really good solo records out. I think you would love her songs Alex.
What is it called?
@@Brandon2940 Ledger
Personally i like her better in skillet. Her voice is grating when shes solo imo
Skillet - Not Gonna Die (With Intro) - Their best song IMO
Resistance, Legendary, sick of it, not gonna die, feel invincible, save me, finish line, back from the dead, rebirthing, Comatose....all by Skillet
I've seen probably 50 of the most popular rock/metal bands live and Skillet is top 2 hands down with their energy. first song i heard them play live was Hero. absolutely amazing. never forget it. if you haven't seen them live you're sadly missing out.
I’m loving the Skillet reactions! They have so many good songs, Whispers in the Dark, Legendary, Undefeated, Sick of it, Out of Hell to name a few
Watching Jen Ledger sing while playing the drums live is amazing.
Please react to more skillet! Here's more:
- Whispers in the Dark
- Savior
- Comatose
- Rebirthing
- Forsaken
- Imperfection
whispers in the dark is their best song by far
@@AeonAxisProductions Agreed
Why does no one mention any of their older songs?
Talon Diwisch like “Alien Youth” and back older or “Collide” older?
赤Spryzen Edits Like Alien Youth and back.
He is liking Skillet so much! 😆 Hey Alex, want something powerful? React to Feel Invincible by Skillet.
Or Legendary
So agree!!!!! I love that song😍
Or resistance
Finish Line, Circus for a Psycho, and Back from the Dead too!
Awake and Alive and Whispers in the Dark. Awake and Alive also has the good combination vocals.
Save me
hell yes!
He should try "Collide" aswell.
I love the style of this Song!.
Listen to Awake and Alive. That'll give you goose bumps!!!
I remember listening to this when i was like 10. Skillet was my first taste of rock and it had me. Still isn't as intense as my favorite Sabaton but it's just so nostalgic!
Same as me
Their music has changed so much since their first album (1996). To this day I still listen to some of those songs. What I really love about that album is that it is totally focused on God. There are no hidden meanings or anything like that which would make it seem like a secular band or songs. In today's world we see bands (which also includes Skillet) making songs that don't directly reflect God or mention God. While I am not against it... but I think we tend to shy away a bit by hiding or disguising the true meaning or reason of the song - which ultimately needs to be God.
This Song was The one that brought me into rock 4 years ago, and later this path I found disturbed, who later brought me into metal. I still come back and listen to the songs, because they represent my journey to my favorite music and bands! I really appreciate all the songs I listened to on my journey, but this truly is the first and special for me! Rock on, guys 'n girls!🤘
"Not Gonna Die" is another FIRE song from Skillet.
Jen Ledger can SING. I'm excited to hear his reaction to her voice!
I LOVE, ANY female vocals, and I liked her a LOT!
Jen ledger, my first major crush growing up still love her
Whenever you start "headbanging" to whichever rock/metal song, you make a facial expression like you're in pain XD
Next one from skillet gotta be either "awake and alive" or "comatose"
jorge lopez or whispers in the dark
Forsaken
or anything off Comatose Comes Alive
@@sirmaurice1023 Comatose or madness in me
@@thenuclearreactor9334 agree my friend
Awake and Alive is another good one.
As well as Not Gonna Die.
I love seeing the joy of new skillet fans when they experience the songs for the very first time. It’s truly magical
Hey man, I am a huge fan of your channel and as a metal fan I love to see you branching out and reacting to all of these different bands. I was already a Skillet fan, with that being said, I have never seen this music video and if it weren't for you I might not have. I am an Army Veteran and current first responder and to see Skillet feature those professions in this video was actually pretty emotional for me. Thanks again man and keep up the good work.
Now, if u'r into Skillet for a time being, you MUST check out Awake And Alive! Dude it's just...MUST!
I'd suggest some:
Skillet - Feel Invincible
Fit For A King - The Price Of Agony
Check these out, you'll like it!
What you said
Need to do some older skillet songs from their collide album like Savior
YES!!! FFAK FOR SURE!!!!!
ah yes, FFAK, and also Silent Planet and Phineas should be on his list too
This song is about all law enforcement and soldiers who give up so much for everyone else in this world.
Yeah, I thought it was easy to guys. Even for me as a German. But he just ignored the facts Given in the video and said Jesus?! A bit dumb if u ask me
shrove In my opinion that is the beauty in their message.
You can see it with or without a belief and it is still always a good music, so I always thought about the same people you talked about.
It might just be a habit of people who believe in a god to be like "Jesus" or "Mohammed" or whoever, when it's something they agree with spiritually.
shrove no, the song is about Jesus. Skillet meant the VIDEO (no italics, sorry, so I used all caps) to honor firefighters and other heroic figures, but the song itself is about his hero, Jesus Christ. I can say this with confidence because I just went to a Skillet concert two weeks ago (great experience, 10/10 would recommend) and John Cooper said it himself. “People always ask me who I wrote this song for. I wrote it for the person that has never let me down, gave me a hope, gave me a future when I had no hope and no future, and that is my hero Jesus Christ”. (Thank God for videos-it was a good speech).
I saw Skillet over the summer and he explained this song is about the person that gets you out of bed in the morning. He did say he wrote it about Jesus Christ (his Hero) but for the listener it is about that one person that you can rely on to get you through the day. My 16 year old son was clinging to me the whole time during the song and I saw a number of people getting emotional and grabbing a loved one.
By the way Dylan, I agree AWESOME band live! My son and I drove 3 hours for the show and it was completely worth it.
Can be either my friend
This was actually the first song I heard from skillet and I immediately became a fan and wanted more. THATS HOW LEGENDARY THIS BAND IS.
Jen
Also, Fight the Fury(side project of the Skillet frontman) ... any of the songs...I like Dominate me the best, but....you know...your choice...
Yes. Definitely Ledger.
Omg yes such a tune! And 'Bold'
Wannysek i like as well Foreigner
@@omaryanezzavala3295 tbf she hasn't done a bad song lol.
Skillet - Legendary, Awake and Alive, Feel Invincible
I love Skillet. I'll be 50 this year and still rocking out to them. My son got me listen to them years ago. Amazing. Took my son, daughter and his friend to the concert here in Tulsa and we was close to the stage, ok I was close to the speakers and it was awesome. It was so worth every penny I spent. Their new CD is awesome. I listen to it in the car and I have to say I'm surprised I haven't gotten a ticket yet 😂😂😂. On that note have a great day.
Saw them in concert.. they were just as amazing! Jen playing drums, singing as the drums were lifted and spinning in circles, insane.. She blew my mind (& yes, this was at HeavenFest, Skillet and POD).lol
Please listen to "Whispers in the Dark" by Skillet... You won't regret it
Dude yes. That's what I'm talking about. Their older stuff was so sick.
Next can you do skillet, rise or not gonna die?! Please 😁
Dalty Dcookie I second that request for Not Gonna Die
Not gonna die but with intro
Not gonna die for sure
Y'all forgetting awake and alive
Not gonna die
You really need to check out the female vocalist's other band. They're called Ledger, which is her last name. Her name is Jen Ledger, and she's amazing. She plays drums *while singing* with Skillet, and it's just as good live as on the record, if not better.
Whispers on the dark, collide, my obsession and thirst is taking over are my fav skillet songs
Whispers in the Dark next.
P.S. Jen the female vocalist is also the drummer. Blows me away every time I see them live.
I wanted to see them once but I didn't. Now my future gave me Lordi
Bro check out whispers in the dark one of my favorite skillet songs and of course rebirthing
You HAVE to do Not Gonna Die! That's my all time favorite from Skillet!
The rough lead vocals mixes so well with the drummer's clean vocals. Sometimes opposites go so well together
Next song :"awake and alive " by Skillet
Skillet - "Feel Invincible" Next Please
I love that song 😍😁❤❤❤
@@Mariel_Moon i know right its amazing !!!
A few years back i had the pleasure of seeing them perform live...and they played and sang like on the album..... i really like their songs. Thanks for reacting to their songs, and i´m glad you like them.
(i really like their song "Whispers in the dark" reallly good song, maybe you could react to that, too)
Skillet is the only band I've seen multiple times in concert, very awesome band that has been rocking for a long time.
Skillet
Comatose
Rebirthing
The last night
Awake and alive
Whispers in the dark
Better than drugs
Agreed with all of them. Surprised I'm not seeing more people mention whispers in the dark
"Skillet - Awake and Alive" Next please :D
So many great songs by Skillet, but I think you should react to Feel Invincible.
Another quality video from you Alex. Thank you. If you ever get a chance to check out a live concert of skillet in person, do it. You won't regret it. High energy, crowd involvement, and thoroughly entertaining throughout the whole concert. Keep up the good work man
Fuck yeah! Skillet again! Thank you for listening to my advice! Houston Strong!💪 💪💪Keep rocking out dude!🤟🤟🤟
If you like Skillet, another great one is Thousand Foot Krutch. Start with Rawkfist
I love tfk they are one of my favs my fav from them is take it out on me
Or Bounce, Flame in All of Us, Welcome to the Masquerade, Untraveled Road. They have a lot of really good tracks.
@@slayerjohn447 dont forget Set It Off and their remake of Unbelievable
TFK I love them so much
War of change and welcome to the masquerade are where it's at
Seen this band live. They are just as theatrical in their on stage performance. Once the drummer stage lifted and started to rotate with fireworks in the background. It was epic.
Unbelievable they're Christian metal❤️ but I love them
Ma ah. They are christian rock. But also have a lot of instrumental metal an others sub genere of metal in songs
@@wolfenx3686 the comment was more towards the point that one doesn't think that Christian metal could sound so... Metal like, and of quality. Like with red
@@Blackitty19 why not? Metal is just a musical style. It has nothing to with the musicians' faith.
@@joelmacdonald6994 it does have to do since it always strive on being clean music. And clean on the musical meaning of that word, not heavy strings, not grungy voices.
@@Blackitty19 look up a band called Living Sacrifice. They have been both real Death Metal and Deathcore. Another one is Tourniquet, more Death and Thrash Metal. Project 86 is more hard rock or new metal. What I find is that some Christian bands do delve into negativity, and greatly so, but they steer away from anger and hate. That doesn't make them less metal, just not typica secular metal. I can recommend more too. I don't like "preachy" music either, but I've definitely found some great bands. There's a difference between a Christian band, and a band made out of Christians.
So glad you reacted to this! It’s definitely my favorite Skillet song. Listen to “Whispers in the Dark” next
Man the first time i hear Skillet many years Ago, was with this song! I fell in love with Jen ledge's voice!
One of my favorite things about Skillet is that if you’re religious or not, you can still interpret the lyrics into your own way.
My first concert was skillet. They helped me realize that rock/metal was my type of music.
check out Fight The Fury - My Demons. It's the vocalist's metal band
BulldogSp33d shhhh dont tell him
Skillet- Save Me
Love this song.
This song live is absolutely incredible. The band live is incredible.
you can see that when the person is really enjoying the music, he practically stays quiet for the entire video.
Hi Alex!
Please react to Avantasia: the scarecrow or the wicked symphony or the ravenchild
Avantasia is a German supergroup metal opera project created by Tobias Sammet, vocalist of the band Edguy.
It has been characterized as a rock opera, as it features the contributions of various vocalists and musicians and it consists of concept albums.
Some of the guest that have been featured on Avantasia are: Michael Kiske (Helloween), Jørn Lande, Alice Cooper, Klaus Meine(Scorpions), Dee Snider(Twisted sisters), Marco Hietala(Nightwish), Sharon den Adel(Within Temptation), Hansi Kursch(Blind Guardian)
For sure you will love that band.
Hoping you will react to one of there songs one day.
Greetings from Germany.
YES YES YES DO IT DO IT
a man of culture detected!
awesome choice my friend, but I don't think that he has enough attention span for fairly long songs like scarecrow.
the scarecrow, please!
@@momenalhussein8147 I am upvoting the fuck out of this
Skillet - Whispers In The Dark
So glad you reacted to this. It's probably my favorite song by skillet, her vocals on the chorus are amazing!! Great reaction. Appreciate you! ❤
yeah i actually saw them live and man they put on a hell of a show!!! so high energy the whole time, the best concert i have ever been too
Skillet- Awake and Alive
Skillet- The Resistance
Please!!!!!! You will LOVE those songs!
and comatose and whispers in the dark
Amaranthe is also great when it comes to vocal mix. You definitely need to check it out.
100%. Drop Dead Cynical or The Nexus to ease in to the awesomeness that is Amaranthe.
@@sandycheeks9342 my fav iż Digital World. Also live these though
@@blackbird42 no doubt, Digital World is a banger. He really needs to buckle down and react to them though. It's been too long.
Great suggestion! If you like this sound then definitely check out Amaranthe!
I love the harmony between the male and female vocal lines on this song.
Just so you know, Skillet in concert does all the fire effects and stuff too. Its Mind blowing dude.
You have their songs "Feel Invincible" and "Whispers in the Dark"
A very good song by skillet is a song called “Lucy” very deep song!!
Those Nights, Say Goodbye, The Last Night also tie into Lucy.
@@slayerjohn447 Stars, Comatose, Breakung Free, Lions, The Resistance, Whispers In The Dark, Rebirthing-
Edit: I mean they those songs I mentioned aren't reated to Lucy (an awesome song btw) but these ones are also awesome-
Lucy is one of those songs that can make your mood go from king of the world to a bawling mess in the corner of your bedroom 😂 (definetly one of their most powerful songs they have written)
Nick Mesogianes especially if you know the real story behind it.
God damn, no not Lucy. It's a great a song, but man is it a great way to leave you in a sad, crying, depressed mess lol.
Skillet Feel Invincible, awake and alive or Sick of It. All 3 amazing
This is the first song I heard 5 years ago from skillet and it turns me to listen to their songs until now
You'll love their song Awake and Alive even more! And then Comatose.
Classic Skillet, oh my gosh!
I get to see skillet live three years ago the band was so good
Skillet is amazing bro, I was the same way when I first heard them, and every time I go back after not listening to them for while, I have the same reaction as I did the first time \m/ Stay positive always man, you're making a difference with you're attitude, and I dig your vids!
Dude you gotta listen to Awake and Alive. Probably their most famous song
Feel Invincible- Skillet! Please?...pretty please?! If ya havent already lol.
Timo Poling I saw Skillet live a few weeks ago and this was their opening song!! It was such an awesome concert and they put on an amazing show! If you ever get the chance I highly reccomend you go see them!
@@calebpowers5530 Im an Atheist and still appreciate their inspirational music. I just interpret it a bit different than their typical fans
“Forsaken” has some of the best lyrics of all time.
Best Skillet songs I think(in no particular order) are:
-- Awake And Alive
-- Collide
-- Circus for a Psycho
-- Comotose
-- Freakshow
-- Save Me/Legendary
-- Whispers in the Dark
-- Monster
-- Hero
-- Lucy
-- The Last Night (definitely listen to that one)
And too many more to list. Just go through their whole discography and you'll find your faves.
You love Jen Ledgers voice?? Listen to Feel Invincible or Rise
