I can't believe people actually think this song is about migraines 😂. This song is not about migraines. That's a stupid story that has been rotating the internet for years. This song is about the duality within the soul. Darkness vs light. Fear vs love. Corey is a super empath. He and I, for that matter, feel the world very differently than most people. "I push my fingers into my eyes It's the only thing that slowly stops the ache But it's made of all the things I have to take Jesus, it never ends, it works it's way inside If the pain goes on, I'm not gonna make it" because a super-empath can't not feel. We can't not see all the pain, suffering, and ignorance of the world. "I've gotta say what I've gotta say And then, I swear, I'll go away But I can't promise you'll enjoy the noise" because super-empaths always speak the truth as they see it. Even if it's not pretty. "Tell me the reality is better than the dream But I found out the hard way Nothing is what it seems" because super-empaths see beyond the bullshit. We feel everything. "All I've got is insane" because that is how it feels for a super-empath to navigate the world for most of our life, until we wake up to who we are. Fun fact: You can clearly see the duality in Corey's soul in Slipknot and Stone Sour. Slipknot represents the darkness, and Stone Sour is the light. It's all about spirituality. His solo project, BTW, could only happen when he reunited with Alicia, which is another part of his spiritual journey. Listen to the lyrics of the songs. It's about a Twin Flame journey. Most of Corey's songs are about Twin Flames in both Slipknot and StoneSour. I can give a whole lecture about that topic alone. Plus, if you listen to Corey talk about his tattoos, you will learn that all of them are about duality. Mine, too, BTW. It's who we are. Super-empaths. Heyokas. Look it up 😉. Many blessings 🙏. Much love and light ❤✨.

Just watching your eyes and facial expression / movements was priceless! Your honest reaction and willingness to expose yourself to so many new types of music is what makes your channel so great!

SlipKnot is real heavy stuff but they've got so much groove too. Not like twist dancing groove, but it's good for "try not to bob your head" challenges.

It's pretty good, but it's not that heavy tbh...

From an article about the song: Lead singer Corey Taylor explained: "Did you ever get that headache that is just not going to go away, and you end up sticking your thumb and your middle fingers so far into your eyes just to stop the pain? It usually has to do with making a choice. you get to that point in everyday life that you have to make a decision that you may not want to, but your kind of pushed into making that decision." >>

Holy shit, i get migraines AND push my thumb and middle finger into my eye when they get bad, and somehow never made the connection to the song

I know a lot of people will recommend more of their heavier songs to react to, but "The Devil In I" is a great one that shows off most of Corey's incredible vocals.

Best concert I've ever seen. The stage show is like nothing you can describe accurately lol

Fun Fact about this video: this is actually a fans house. They willingly let hundreds of people destroy their house for a "Slipknot" video. Also, this song is about Corey Taylor having migraines, which the house serves as a metaphor for his head with all the people running in and breaking it being the pain from headaches. That's why in the parts where he's kinda talk-singing, he's sounding like he's got his hand on his own head to alleviate pressure and the line "I push my fingers into my eyes" also has the same relief-effect.

I hope he discovered acupressure points for the migraines like I did There are actually two, one on the eyebrow and one under the eye at the underside of the skull, that could be pushed instead So if anyone reading this suffers from headaches that make you wanna push your fingers into your eyes check it out

That fullness, you mention, that Corey Taylor maintains, even with most of his harsh vocals, is a cornerstone of my metal experience. Metalheads sometimes say metal relaxes them, and with Corey's voice I can actually put my finger on it (for myself at least). His vocals feel centered. He is giving us all this emotion, aggression and harshness, yet more often than not it sounds like he still has a little more, if he wanted to. It feels stable. That mix of the harshness, providing such a good vent for my own frustration, and the control I hear in it, does a lot for me emotionally. It's not unique to metal. I can think of one non-metal song in which the vocalist manages to give me the same feeling. It's a powerful place to project from, I imagine.

You must must must do a song from Mudvayne. The song "Happy", I think it will lend so well to your series and musical adventure. I have been watching your videos today and subscribed. I love your take on all these bands I grew up listening to. The first video I saw of your by random occurrence was the video you saw Tool for the first time and preforming "Sober" live. Then it started me down a rabbit hole of so many of your videos. You show so much respect to the specific talents and there is such an amazing innocent way of taking in the music and professionalism to all you say. I can honestly learn so much from your videos. I 100% do not hate that I came across your channel and can't wait to see more. Cheers and thanks for sharing your craft in the way you are doing it, so cool and respectful.

I was also thinking that something from Audioslave would be great too or sSoundgarden but after watching a few videos and saw Chris was listened to on a couple posts. I figured with something that may not have been known to the creator might be a better post for her. However, I would think the songs such as "Bring Em Back Alive" or "Light My Way" would be great suggestions too. I also just want to throw it out there but Queens of the Stone Age should be mentioned as a another path down the rabbit hole that should be experienced by all music appreciating owners of ears and lovers of talent.

Seeing Slipknot in concert is a great experience, too. They don't disappoint

I went to an outdoor SLIPKNOT concert, THEY BLEW ME, AND EVERYONE ELSE THERE, AWAY. I was apprehensive before the show how they would sound, THEY are great, and sound great LIVE

Love this women reactions!! I was funny watching Bethany face change as it kept going 😃 a mixture of amazement, shock and gratitude for the band! Well done young lady well done.

I've always been amazed by how beautiful his voice is. I especially love it in Wait and Bleed.

Friendly concern: I thought YT doesn't like whole video playbacks with little commentary at that time. Otherwise, I love your spot on breakdown of every detail that skipped my conscious by. That brings so much more understanding & appreciation for the song & artist, and your passion is so clear and infectious it resparks my love of music too. For that & your excellent content, I thank you very much 🙂

Huge fan of your work. Nothing specific to be said, but I love how you're skills allow you to listen to any genre of music and break down the basic skills needed to perform the track. So much respect and joy anytime you post a new reaction. Thank you!

Brilliantly worded. It’s truly mind blowing how well the deepest of existential themes can be expressed through both vocals and instruments. You can truly feel the pain they’re going through when writing this song. And as you mentioned, it’s truly authentic. It’s not just a song about anguish, anxiety, depression, mental breaking points, etc… it’s a connection to those existential, primal feelings. Sorry if you have but you should do an Opeth song. Either Harvest by Opeth or Ghost of Perdition Live at Red Rocks. I can tell by your body language and terminology that you’re connecting to it. Also, the way he kind of mumbles out the words in the very beginning of the song put you in this catatonic like lullaby state. Just in a more darker existential way.

For me, this is the first seen her so deep in the song that she never paused the video. Is her head moving slightly and body telling her she is getting charmed by the song. She was hypnotized

If you enjoy reacting to slipknot, I think you'd really love Vemilion Part 1 and 2. Same song but completely different in nature, would make for two great videos

The only vocal coach channel i watch. To the point reactions and great breakdown.

I’ve had the pleasure of watching only a few of your reactions and I can’t remember you moving around very much. It really brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart seeing someone react to something I’ve listened to for years. 🤘🏻🔥💥🙏🏻💯 Subbed

Bethany! I loved watching your facial expressions as you watched this video as the song played along.. your head just swaying back and forth.. was great

So pleasing to see a react video where you actually show you going through it in one go and we can see your expressions as they happen. Getting into the analysis after is a perfect way to do this.

Damn! You're facial expressions watching and listening to this told an amazing story. Absolutely awesome reaction to an absolutely awesome song.

the way you describe every detail of the song, it's so cool.... you're amazing 👏 👏👏🫶🫶

I liked that you watched the whole video start to finish for your raw reaction, and then you went back and dissected it. I wish more music reaction videos did that. Good video.

I remember downloading the Video back in the day with one kind of proto ipod and watching it on my way to school I've completely absorbed it in its entirety to a point I feel like I was part of it I also make sure to wish blessings upon the people from the vid It's so raw and honest and energetic and never gets old So it's glorious watching my fave vocal analyst react to one of my all time favourites 😊 Amazing

My Teenaged sons turned me on to Slipknot 25 years ago. The band is from Des Moines, Iowa. Very creative band, I would love to see one of their live shows. RIP Joey and Paul.

Watching you watch this took me back to my first time hearing Slipknot. Which was this song. I love that youwatched all the way through and really soaked it up in its entirety

Rip Joey! Great reaction, their live shows have so much energy. Corey is so good. Strong emotional songs to release stress and fun to sing along with. ❤❤Bethany, keep up the great work.

As many people have mentioned, your eyes gave away your reaction and I think that was incredibly amazing! I would absolutely LOVE to hear YOUR reaction to Slipknot's song Left Behind as that is one that really... REALLY resonates with everyone that I have played it for, including me. And, in my opinion, there hasn't been anyone that has reacted to this song and done it justice as I know you would! You're by FAR my favorite reviewer of songs! No fake reactions from you, which I love!

The drumming is just amazing!

I saw Slipknot live in Reno, Nevada on the day their debut album went platinum. "Wait and Bleed" live is an entire experience. It was like being thrown into a horror movie.

One of my favorite videos from them. I still remember watching this in high school and wanting to experience something like this. Over the years I’ve gotten to and there’s nothing like being surrounded by people who love this music like you do. Great reaction! If you haven’t checked out Slaughter to Prevail - Demolisher yet, you should. Would love to see you react to that at some point.

You have the most honest reactions, it's refreshing. If I'm not mistaken you are originally from Iowa, these guys are arguably have been the top metal band for years. That is something to be proud of as an Iowan. Great job on your videos, loved the Triumph reactions also.

You earned a sub, you completely observed all the right things, and spoke about what i felt when i first heard this song

Absolutely love that you dont chop the song up the first time! That's how you do a reaction! Well done.

Bethany says " O Kay" , then youtube cut to an advert for a chocolate easter bunny.....laughed soooo hard I had a coughing fit......excellent 😈👍

This is how it’s done… watch it through and then go back and do the start pause, thoughts. I’ve been waiting for this. Thank you

It was great seeing your reaction to this. I've watched quite a number of your videos, and this is the first I'd seen, where you watched the entire video all the way through w/out stopping. I know, Slipknot is a lot to take all at once. lol I've listened to them for 30 years now, since the earliest iteration of the band, before Corey Taylor had even joined, and while I was a much bigger fan of their older recordings, it's always interesting to see someone's reaction to their first listen to them.

Loved it 🤘🏼🤪🤘🏼As always GREAT reaction and analysis.

I think you're a fan of metal and you don't even know it. Your movement, your pained face at the right moments, everything. Awesome. And I love how you don't censor. The music keeps its artistry with the lyrics that artists wrote. Beautiful. Thanks yo.

"Duality" has such a personal resonance for me now. I had always loved the song but something made me love it more.... As an adult I got diagnosed with some serious lifelong health problems and had to get an MRI ...I was not looking forward to it. I had seen a lot of doctor dramas, they always made MRI's look like this super anxiety inducing thing where you'll be trapped in a small space, have to hold completely still, and lots of loud annoying noise around you. I was SOO nervous about it. But when I got there, the staff made me comfortable and gave me a choice of music to listen too and I told him the kinds of music I liked and gave me MRI save headphones and put on Spotify. So when I rolled back into this giant metal tube to get this thing done that I was dreading, I heard Corey Taylor whisper into my ears "I push my fingers into my eyes." and it was so relaxing and I just coasted through the whole thing after that.

Your expreesions=priceless 🤘🤣 one of the greatest reactions 👏

Fact : the clip video cost minimum 300k because it was turned at a fan's house that was due for renovation, and features the band performing inside the house surrounded by dozens of fans both inside and outside the house, which gets destroyed in the process as the fans crash through the windows and walls. x)

I want to take this moment to thank you. When I watch your reactions, I see your sincerity for the beauty of music and lyrics. Many people get caught up in the appearance of Band X, and it distracts them from their real motives. The feeling that lyrics and sound cause us to emote. It is here where we identify, and the artist becomes relatable. In some ways, we feel like we 'know' the artist, even though we've never met. This is the beauty of the song.

I love your actual first reaction where you didn't want to stop the recording even for a moment because you were, a little shocked, a little in a trance, a little in awe. Of course, I liked the later analysis as well, but it was all about the first impact. Love it

Really like the full playtrhough, and then analysis going back on the video

Amazing reaction Bethany! I didn't know what you would say after the first play through. Then you devoured every morsel Corey delivered. Bravo! Those masks are quite gruesome. Wow.

i love any reaction video but i like how you actually fully listen to the song first with no pauses and then analyze it

Beautiful way that you put your words”it makes me sad because I can hear the anguish” I love hearing how you break down songs. You are able to encapsulate what I feel as I also heard the song for the first time. Sexy, smart and a wonderful insight to the feelings in a song. Xoxoxo respectfully

Visceral reaction is what i needed today.

This is amazing!!! Love this song!

Bethany was mesmerized first watch, then the analysis was spot on.

GREAT. Keep going, you are the best!!

This video reminds me of the couple Slipknot shows I've been to. Man, the live energy is incredible!

You earned a new subscriber :D love it!!

Dude I love the channel, only new to it but love the reactions. Can I just suggest one thing? Not sure what quality those ear buds are but you should really invest into some high quality open headphones, they will change your whole sound signature on every song you listen to. I have Sennheiser drop 6XX and they freak me out with what you can hear. I'm sure you buy better but all have a high price tag. Love watching vocal coaches listen to metal and you do a sick job. That was a really great reaction with great commentary, its great to see your love for metal grow from what I've seen. Pretty chick with growing love for metal, you have my support. Awesome video.

i love how you were just mesmerized for three minutes straight. this is the correct reaction to this song and its accompanying music video, imo.

Great analysis. You are a rare gem. Any man would be extremely lucky to have a woman like you.

Her face is priceless, love it

I always heard the vocals in this song as that distant sound being the internal dialogue in his mind. The forward sound you describe being the verbal audible to the rest of the world. The “I push my fingers into” being that middle ground. Between the internal dialogue to the external “my eyes”

Such a great reaction.

Ive never seen such a range of emotions all being shown on her face. From confused, repulsed, a bit scared, to intrigued, to mesmerized, to impressed, to a maggot. All in one song. Epic.

I love your beautiful reaction to this I really don't think you know what to make of this your face reaction to this is priceless I know it took a minute for you to like it but at first I know you didn't know what to make of it the look on your face gave it away I believe this to be your best reaction yet because seriously all the different looks on your face I love it and l was watching you move then the video

It's such a human song; especially the main lyric. I think that's why so many people connect over this kind of music. It's wonderful to see so many people from different genres coming together. Well done Internet! Ignore the haters. We love you x

I love your facial expressions, your unique!

Corey is a fantastic singer, so much range

lol! I LOVE how you can SEE her trepidation and then the moment when she GETS it! Y'all, this lady is great. I could watch her do this all day.

Corey Taylor is such a chameleon. You listen to songs like this one or "Before I Forget", and then you hear something like "Hesitate" or "Zzyzx Rd", and it's hard to believe it's the same voice.

This may be the best reaction vid Ive ever seen haha

I had the chance to see Slipknot live in 2022, and I can say without hesitation that their show is an experience, and not just a "music concert". One awesome spectacle!

The live performance is CRAZY. They are fantastic.

You know what that's what I love about metal music because there's so much going on you can listen to it over and over again and then pick out little details that she missed the first few times either in the vocals or in the instrumentals or some things that they're doing with the mix there's a lot of replayability

Hello Ms. Beth, I think the word you are looking for when describing the aesthetic of Slipknot is "visceral." Love the channel 😀😀

Welcome to the rabbit hole!😂 There is so much to the lore and history of not only Slipknot but Corey Taylor too!

3:58 (Gasp) "Oke". Don't know why, had me laughing.

Clear visual with honesty is Cory Taylor exactly!

i was just listening to this song last night around 11pm, and i almost could not get to sleep; ya know, those moments that just gets your blood pumping you go on a binge for about 3 to 4 hours with your music because you tell yourself, fuck it, youre alive so keep rockin, plenty of time to sleep when you're dead, right? ---until you remind yourself yer pushin 62 and you've still got to get up to work early! LOL.

I suggested Lamb of God before . The song 512 is a killer song done by Randy Blyth you should enjoy his vocal control. One of the very best live bands ever.

They actually make the masks themselves! Each member makes their own, it's like an added layer of artistic representation and performance to their whole act.

Can't wait to see you do more of Slipknot. I'd recommend checking out Psychosocial, the Devil in I and Spit It Out Live at Download 2009

Man, I don't want to think about how long ago this was, but my first encounter with this song and the band was at a roller rink school excursion. I didn't even know I was into metal at the time, but a kid I thought was cool was singing it on the bus journey to the venue and he played it on his phone (bloody rare thing to even be able to do in those days, might have been a walkman or something but my memory is telling me otherwise) when we got there, and even in that lo-fi, tinny distortion I could feel something pretty special coming through.

🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼,,, Great Reaction ❤️

Good stuff. Keep it up! 👍🏽

Luv this song! Always have always will! 🤘🩶

The "I push my fingers into my eyes, it's the only thing that slowly stops the edge"is a reference to the migraines Cory Taylor gets and what he does to help with some of the pain

That was a real reaction ✊🏻

Love your reactions. Fun Fact: don't know if anybody mentioned this but the people in the video are actual Slipknot fans who were invited to be part of the video shoot and destroy that empty house that was being torn down anyways. Some love slipknot's earlier stuff I prefer solid cleaner vocals. I would suggest the song Bother by his other band Stone Sour. His vocals there are so raw and in my opinion soulful. He's got a great voice that deserves being showcased 🤘

I. Love❤. This. Video. The best part for me is the breakdown and the pent up aggression and anger in the kids faces.
