It didn't have much of an impact. I think I'm a bit too much of a cult. Cult.

I loved this dude. your reaction is so raw and real. love how you titled it “experience” instead of “reaction”. the fact that you almost recreate the songs while you’re listening to them is incredible. you should listen to “Channel Orange” by Frank Ocean.

Why don't I trust Mercurial with a knife.

I love how you stopped a little bit at gorgeous to appreciate kanyes lyricism considering that's arguably his greatest track lyrically and the fact that, someone like you thats reacting to the album mostly for the production did that I think really proves how fantastic Kanyes verses on that track were, anyway cant wait for part 3, you're awesome!

23:59 That sounds fantastic! It goes so well with the melody.

The South Park line instantly made Gorgeous my favourite songs of all time.

drumming and conducting with a kitchen knife is such a 2020 mood lmao

well this is a certified best reaction channel

I love the fact that he started picking on some one-liners, I wish he would do that more. I loved his reaction to the blackballed/black balls punchline. It's good content anyway keep it comin'

That's Jon Anderson of Yes singing the 'can we get much higher' sample (from a Mike Oldfield song, no less) at the beginning. Next song (Gorgeous) samples Enoch Light & the Glittering Guitars cover of a Turtles song. After that, POWER samples King Crimson. The whole album is prog inspired. Not gonna spoil some of the other samples of other songs (even though you probably have listened to the whole record all the way through at this point and are editing all the parts), but you're in for a treat. Welcome to the fantasy.

That "i might not always love you" part was FIREEEE

Watching this makes me realize even more just how ridiculously good this album is. No wonder its number 1 on all the magazines top 100 of 2010s.

I hope you’re having an amazing end of the year sir. Congratulations for improving so much this year in terms of audio quality and visual editing

i love the energy you bring to these. this is a gift for my slow afternoon at work

Amazing reaction Mercurial. Honestly I knew this would eventually happen since I started watching your content over 2 years ago now. Also your reaction to Power is priceless. Great video! :3

As a King Crimson fan, I love the 21st Century Schizoid Man sample in Power

Im so happy but I know i will be complete when runaway hits

This man just created the best far-west type beat ever in 1 minute this is amazing

I like the fact that you make the whole song play. Usually some people skips parts of the songs in order to avoid copyright but you clearly want us to have the best experience. SEI IL MIGLIORE.

Your sheer child-like joy at hearing POWER made me so fucking happy. Such a fantastic song!

Man i never watched your videos.... but once i started... I just started loving everything about you.... amazing channel... feels soo comfy

Man I'm so glad you did this. It's amazing and I thank you for giving the raw reactions that aren't too far off of when I listened to this so many years ago with friends in the car.

You listening through albums and adding little bits to them before release would make any album 2x better.

Amazing reaction! Love your open mind and seeing someone like yourself experience albums loved by myself and many others. Also the sample on "Gorgeous" (the second track) is You Showed Me by Enoch Light and the Glittering Guitars

You bring me the type of joy and energy that I’ve needed all day man you’re awesome

I love watching him listen to albums I've heard a million times. It's like showing a friend a good record knowing they'll enjoy it. Gives me a new found appreciation for the albums too.
