I love some good story telling. Especially how there are so many ways to interpret them. Either he is watching a younger version of himself, or maybe that whole time it was his father, and when its revealed at the end that the old man is Nathan, its NFs way of explaining his fear of becoming his father. He wants to be present and be a positive role model for his own kids, and he fears letting them down. Great song and video.

I think it's more like he is afraid of letting himself down He is afraid of being sad and depressed, locking himself inside a cage with the keys in his hand! We can see this clearly in Hope when he watches the same old version of himself inside the mansion

@@mohameda.elemary3342 I too see it as letting himself down. Ngl I hate and love this song. It makes me just depressed bc I think Abt the 4 yrs of highschool I spent alone, the only thing driving me forward my passion for soccer. To hopefully get recruited by college coaches and have that moment of signing the contract Infront of Alot of plp. I know it's selfish but I just always wanted to feel special and be someone important. But as the years went my coach kind of ruined how things went with his shit tactics. He was never a soccer coach in the first place, he was a football coach . And senior year, the worst year of my life, basically everything I worked for just for it to be a huge let down, and it was my other 2 fellow seniors on the team who signed a contract Infront of hundreds of people, while I was there watching, painfully screaming inside, replaying this song. I don't really feel suicidal but at that moment I just wanted to leave forever.

Great insight Nate S. I think it is intended to be both, he might even say "parent", but if you listen to Nate from The Search he feels like he let himself down and that becomes clearer in Hope because it definitely is the old Nate in the cell. The version of Nate that stayed trapped in the cage he built himself even though he has the keys. That is pretty clear. But, I know Nate has says he likes to leave things open for interpretation, and your theory is amazing. Nice one.
I love your NF reactions so much. 🙏🏼 🙂 I love NF I love all his songs. Especially let you down. Beautiful song.

NF retells the older version juxtaposed with his younger in his song hope. It's beautiful how he ties his songs together. A real genius.
Your NF reactions are my favorite. Hearing insight into the video production/filming and how it relates to his impeccable story telling is awesome. Thanks for this unique insight!!!
It's crazy from the perspective of someone who knows nothing about videography. Watching your videos points out all these camera tracks and the tone they set scene by scene simply with the camera work and how it plays into the story. It's something that I personally never noticed, and would've never thought about. However, once pointed out I can easily see how the entire visuals could be changed without them. Fantastic videos. Innovative, and eye opening.
We all know that it will be incredible
Please do more NF!!! Really love your videos

NF ties in all his music videos themes together in like a huge movie 🎥. He is a storyteller him and Ren are so talented
You are genuinely one of the best reactors I’ve encountered on KZread. Your passion and ability to break down certain components really works well with your editing, attentiveness, and industry knowledge. Well done. 🎉
Love that you catched that it’s Nate himself as an old man watching himself dying. Lots of people don’t get it because they don’t now Nate’s story or even his name. Love your reactions 🫶🏻
the old man is the same one from Hope

so good..
The end is so much better when you already know what it means and you see someone who react to it for the first time. It’s so funny and astonishing at the same time.
Such a great song and video, your reactions and breakdowns are stellar.
Love your reactions man !
Love your insights in to film making, keep rolling them out!
Love your reactions Jonathan.
This is a continuation of his story, here he is looking back as an old man, watching a part of himself die. Its good to note that this is the NF in all black in the video. In his recent video Hope, (great reaction to that), NF opens a room to find this man, in a cage, which is representing another video, Outcast. the juxtaposition of Let you Down and Outcast my have a deeper meaning. Here I feel NF is seeing his darker self die maybe, but still arises in his later life in Hope. love the reactions, new fave channel :)
Yesssss I was hoping you would do this one
Amazing reaction! Glad you watched till the end to see that it was actually Nathan talking to himself.

Whats beautiful is your reactions my man, never thought I’d enjoy hearing so much about the production man good job for finding out at the end, can’t wait for the next one!
I'm happy to see you coming back to NF music. Keep up the good work!
"How Could You Leave Us" is an emotional one
This is my favorite NF music video! It’s so awesome that he can tell a story so good. I love your work. Keep it up man!👌🏼
Jonathan, great videos. Ive been asking for a while THE SEARCH HAS to be next! Its cinematic greatness!
Few times watched rappers' reaction videos, but listening to you evaluating the quality of production and the story is a pure pleasure. Thank you for your content!
Song is amazing…video is beautiful…reaction is informative and engaging. Great job my dude!
Couldn't wait to see your reaction to the ending....thank you for your insight and perspective...great reaction!
Great video reactions buddy! It's nice to get a different perspective of viewing these videos and to understand the work behind it. Thanks
It's very impressive how many times you said WOW and the look on your face. I love your reactions to his videos. He can tell stories both lyrically and visually.
Great breakdown. Thank you. 🤍
Amazing insight
Appreciate your NF reactions. He works with some great people to help visualize his mysic n ideas onto a screen. Everyone is just so good. His earlier videos seemed to have a similar color tone to this. I know you watched Hope n it seemed he had a different color tone that was brighter. Thanks again
I love seeing your reactions in general, but especially to NF. I highly encourage you to keep watching through his older stuff while we wait on HOPE to drop. Keep up the great work :)
Dude i found you last week and im ashamed to say i dont think ive seen any of your work but im hooked on your voice its so relaxing
You give one of the most entertaining reactions due to your experience and knowledge but you've got a really down to earth personality that draws people to more and more content of yours. Great work, hopefully you'll go down the NF journey and keep expanding your channel 🙏
what a lovely and interesting way of doing reaction videos enjoyed it
You always open my eyes to new ways of which movies and videos are shot
Superb reaction. I very much enjoy all of your reactions.
You should do "Story" by NF. Top notch storytelling. Love your insights. ⚡

YESSS THE SONG I WANTED. ITS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SONG.
One day I’d love to get a reaction for you! Keep it up! Your content is great!
All nf songs I've heard it has some part that gives me goosebumps
I really love your NF reactions
You reaaaallyyyy neeeeed to watch NF-Story This Video is completely insane!
wonderfull song but i this one was a recommendation i and probaly lot of us have done so i was waiting to see your face at the end especially. Insane video as always
I was waiting for you to realize it was Nate all along. Got Goosebumps once you realized. Loving your Reactions!
you neeeeeeed to see NF's "If you want love" from the same album, it's such a good song with beautiful story in a music video! I love your NF reactions, thank you for sharing your knowledge about the filmmaking! subbed & liked, waiting for more :)
this is the man that is in the cage in the music video of hope. just 1 of the many throwbacks to older songs in that music video
You might recognize the old man is the man in the cage with the key from "Hope"
Man! Fantastic! Too much time between NF reactions. Need more😂
I noticed you watched Hope before Let You Down but im not sure if you caught it but the man in the cage of Hope is the same man in Let You Down here. Then him being in the cage is part of the Perception album, Outcast music video. ps. I was apart of the Motto video and it was such a great experience. I'm the one he put his feet up on my shoulder, I'm on the left (when watching the video). It was truly a great experience meeting Nate and getting the chance to talk to him. For me, the coolest part of it all was just being on a set which was my first time ever, and just seeing how hard he works on his projects and how involved he is in the process. I don't know if every artist is like this or what, but Nate is something special . He's also directing too with how he wants things done too. His director he's used for 20 to 21 videos, Patrick Tohill, he's the mastermind behind his videos.
Also, your analyses make me want to learn filmmaking/cinematography!
i like how honest he is
still the best reactions out there
I love your breakdowns! 👌 I have tears in my eyes everytime I hear the song. Could you react to "how could you leave us" by NF?
I love your NF reactions please do I just wanna know!
Let's goooo He did let you down! It's such a good video. like all of NFs videos 😂
Thank you
Love your reactions! You should react to "How Could You Leave Us", very emotional
And now we love you!!!
Nf is so good putting his Storys to videos and songs
Amazing video as always, I sincerely appreciate the technical analysis of your reactions. You should definitely consider doing NF's "When I Grow Up". I think you could a lot with that amazing video.

Enjoyed hearing the break-down of the video and how it was filmed. Also enjoyed your analysis of the meaning of the song. NF is such an amazing story-teller! Thank you, keep doing what you do, it's greatly appreciated!!
You should react to NF-Time. Love this, as always🎉
i also notice that your NF videos have a lot more views than other ones. that speaks volume about NF's influence
Great reaction! Still waiting for The Search and Leave me alone😊
Let You Down is a big part of my childhood. This made my day
The old man was also in Hope, inside that cage in the mansion scene. Also could you please react to Niall Horan's music videos? They are amazing, simplistic but yet very artistic. Also great video!
Older man is the same actor in the cage in Hope. It's Nate's older self who was locked in the cage holding the keys.
The old man future NF is also the same guy in the Hope video in the portable mansion (cage) inside the actual mansion with keys.
Waiting for your reaction to MOTTO would love to see your film breakdown!
Missed the NF reactions
Time is another interesting story made by NF, you could check that out, great video btw
I didn't cry, you cried!
Yes NF was actually in the water. He does all his stuff. You see him doing something, it’s him. I love that about him and he was in the car. You need to watch how could you leave us!!
I like what you said about the green-blue feeling tenacious but ominous, because it always makes me think of Southern Gothic sort of movies.
Thats the old man who was in HOPE video
Love the breakdowns you do, and I would love you to react to "How Could You Leave Us" by NF.

The old man was also in the Video Hope in a jail cell in one of the rooms in the mansion that you already reacted too! The old man is NF when he is older. At the end his wife calls for him that show NF on his wrist which he has on his wrist real life!
