he did this reimagined version and then the revamped version of “i’m not a vampire” at the 10-year anniversary of the original album release as a gift for his fans. he’s an insanely gifted musician, able to do pretty much any style of music that he wants to. and yes, he’s been clean/sober for a long time now.

Ironically, he wrote "The Drug in me is you" while he was in prison. Prison was when he realized how detrimental drugs were for him. So he technically was sober when he wrote it. Has been sober since prison. Got that from his book!

Yes- the drug is actually drugs and it’s “misery”. You were spot on in the first video talking about bad situation- and needing to get out- but after 10 years being clean sober living life and growing- he is a different person- which makes the people trying to bring up his past and hate him/ it’s horrible- he is completely different- he grew like you should- he changed like you would hope someone would want. I think that’s why long term fans like myself- leaving a marriage after 16 years with a narcissist husband- many of his songs now hit me differently then they did before. The fact that he wrote amazing lyrics 10 years before is usually completely overlooked.

This was such a raw reaction! Thank you for that! I've watched so many people react to this song and they just never seem to "understand" the pain and desperation but you heard it the way I sure it was supposed to be heard. I teared up on this one with you. Keep up the great content Teddy! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Oof. The way you could literally see the tears well up in your eyes got me. A lot of people don't feel the pain of the last bit and it always hits me so hard. Thanks for being genuine as always Teddy! Go punch something. It's allowed. 😂🖤🖤

Just hit my 10 year mark this past April and I have an almost 6 year old son. Almost been clean now longer than how long I used, which is crazy for me to think about. But it's such an inspiration to see other people's success after kicking the shit. Ronnie really is the GOAT, he's as real as they come.

His screams are usually of anger or frustration, but in this case those screams at the end were of DESPERATION man, that's why it hits different. And I agree, that very last scream was amazingly sad to hear. You could feel the pain he was feeling

This is why Ronnie is the goat he brings this emotion out of people

He puts his everything into it and you can feel it. I love how vulnerable he allows his vocals to be. It's so raw and real and that's what allows people to connect. Probably one of my favorite vocalists of all time, tbh.

Duality of sadness and anger is such a profound concept and this song is the absolute perfection of portraying both.

Exactly! Exactly.

Your level of appreciation makes me emotional. Its pure pain and beauty

I’ve watched a ton of reaction vids, and as a muso (guitarist) I love seeing the effect music has on people. I have NEVER seen ANYONE get as deep as you man, and be able to connect with such subtlety within the music that most wouldn’t catch. What you show when you feel music, is the very reason musicians create it in the first place. Thank you Brother, you’re the truth music is made for 🙏🏼 ❤️

Well said I agree 💯🔥

The agony. It is a perfect response. Anger is very close to any heartfelt emotions.

When I saw that you had reacted to both versions of this, I could barely contain my excitement because you'd be experiencing the full effect of what he did here, and I couldn't wait to see what you thought of it. I was initially more focused on your thoughts and general reaction and hadn't even considered your emotional reaction, so for that reason I was momentarily surprised, but I know that you love and feel music deeply, and sometimes that shows itself by way of tears, happy or otherwise. And I just wanted to say, dude thank you so much for trusting us enough, or just being comfortable enough to share raw, emotional moments like this with us. I'm not sure how to explain the importance of that. Saying it's satisfying sounds insensitive. I don't find joy in your tears 😄. But it was satisfying to see you realize that it was the exact same song and see how Ronnie had literally reimagined it. And then to see how deeply it affected you was very relatable. I guess some of us just enjoy these little gossamer threads of connection that exist from a genuine love of/need for music, and an appreciation for how it makes us feel (regardless of HOW it makes us feel, just the FACT that it makes us feel). I've said enough. I'm talking weird and fear I'm not making sense. I'll go have a nap now.

How'd you sleep?

Watching you react - you seemed to show a lot of the emotion that I feel every time I hear this song. And I think you are the first reactor that ever actually reacted to the last line and how impactful it is. It's like he is fading away, being taken away, or he is so lost (can't you see) that he is now out of reach. It guts me every time. You are right - his music can be applied to so many different situations in anyone's life. Great reaction and thank you for you insightful reactions - I really love them. I love all the things you see or notice. So many others just don't. Also - 'irrational response' is universal. It definitely happens to me also -

It's so amazing that outside of the extra chorus repeat, this is note for note, bar for bar the same identical song on paper as the original. His voice is amazing. I can't wait for "I'm Not A Vampire Revamped"!!

I’m so happy you enjoyed the talent shown in this “reimagined” version! I think you’d enjoy his other reimagined work “I’m Not a Vampire” as well!

Ronnie is an amazing artist. This song is very emotional. I cried the first time i heard it too. Ronnie had a lot of emotions when he remade this.

This song is in my top 3 songs of all time. I've heard it at least 500 times and every time I've gotten chills. It resonates with me on so many levels, and just HOW he does it hits me in my soul. Only other singer to do that to me was Chester Bennington.

if you liked these then i think you’d like “i’m not a vampire” and the revamped version as well ! they are so good

Your reaction to this was EXACTLY how it hit me as well! Glad you allowed yourself to be swallowed whole by this song, keep them coming bro

I cry every time i hear this song. It's simply masterpiece of music. Period.

That’s me crying now. What is it with seeing men be vulnerable and cry that sets me off?! Thank you for a real reaction. I just wanna give you a hug and tell you Itl all be okay! 🖤

omg you’re going to lose your damn mind when you do “I’m Not A Vampire.” I cannot wait!

Fucking love your reactions teddy! Genuinely, my favorite. Hope your week gets better my man! I've been listening to ronnie since I was he started and he just keeps getting better!

Can’t tell you how many times Ronnie has made me cry

I’ve watched/listened to this song many times… and never have I ever gotten emotional like I did during your reaction… I watched you progress through and get more emotional, as you said… and then when Ronnie started screaming, and you could see the tears welling up in you… it got me. Thank you for reacting to this. Needed it today

Ronnie does his music with complete emotion that's why I fux with him. Not only can I relate to him but I know what that pain feels like. He's letting it out.

Your reactions to Falling in Reverse are my absolute favorites. I recently got into their music, and I've cried, screamed, sang along. I find Ronnie Radke to be a genius with his music. I'm actually going to a meet and greet with them in September. I can't wait! I will ask him to check out your reactions, as he loves to watch reactions.

Bro I’m crying just watching your reaction. I love it.

Dude Ronnie is reading your mail I love how you get so involved and it tears at your heart strings. I feel your pain just watching you !!!!! Be strong

Genuine reaction good on you bro...I love watching people react to my favourite artists and get something out of it like I do.. show's you gotta good soul.

I haven't heard Ronnie's perspective on this song, but I feel like the screaming part is him showing a glimpse of the pain that he holds within him. It's a struggle that all of us have, really. We're all screaming on the inside.

I love that you loved it so much and it was heartmelting to see the reaction the song got on you. Indeed an immense song, best of bests, probably the most beautiful rock ballad ever written. (As for Ronnie, he has been completely done with drugs already before starting with FIR in 2011.)

He got me too with this…from beginning to end, if it wasn’t tears it was goosebumps. He is so talented.

Everyone always missing it! Freeze frame at 12:53. What do you see? This video/storyline (reimagined) is a lead into The Vampire in Me is You (Reimagined). Ronne is a genius!

It is okay to tear up on that song, it is so beautifully altered that it gives out so much of his feelings that you can't handle it. :D Ronnie is extremely talented

Glad you enjoyed it Teddy!

I’m so happy you listened to this. I’m one of the people that recommended it. This song speaks to me on a personal level and I’m grateful it hit you in the heart too.

"Can't you seeeeeee!!!!?" No, I really can't I've got something in my eye. Loved your reaction.

This is the first time I've seen such an honest reaction. Thank you so much. That means a lot.

This is hands down the Best reaction to this song I've ever seen

This song is packed with sadness and anger. You can hear the emotions through it. Its amazing.

Is there anything more beautiful than being moved by a piece of music? Honestly it's what i live for...

Your reaction! ❤❤❤ I feel like his emotion really comes through on this song and Last Resort so much! Its so heart-wrenching when he hits certain words and you just feel it so deeply. I love that it impacted you as much as it did me when i first heard it. It still chokes me up sometimes. Ronnie has amazing talent, but the raw, genuine emotion that comes through when he sings/screams can't be taught or faked. He makes us feel his pain and connect so strongly to the music! 😭 And yes, he has been sober for awhile now! And he reimagined this song and I'm Not a Vampire 10 years after the originals were released. Pretty amazing!

I've just found your channel and couldn't help but binge watch your falling in reverse playlist. You are quite the amazing reactor.

This made me cry also the first time... ronnie knows how to bring feelings !

Have to do I’m not a vampire now man! You’ll love it!

My favorite reactor and my favorite video! Love the raw emotion. It did the same to me. And watching your face and seeing your emotion made me tear up. Can wait to see you do Im not a vampire revamped!

Awesome reaction!! Cant wait for you to do "I'm Not a Vampire Revamped"! The music video is so good it won some short film awards

Mad respect this song and this version always gets me it's so dam beautiful

This one always gets to me.I take it as if Mr Radke is trying to get his important message out to someone/thing but he keeps regaining his composure before he loses it. The message isnt gotten as the song progresses and he keeps pulling back, until he finally snaps. The last muffled seeeee comes across as it didnt matter if he screamed, it still fell on dead ears. Anyways loved the reaction. I really enjoy watching people who have a deep passion for music react to artists who have a deep passion. Mr Radke sings from the heart. There is not alot of that these days. Thank you. Looking foward to Im not a Vampire.

I wish Ronnie would see this reaction, it’s so raw and real.

I agree, the "CAN'T YOU SEEEEE!!!!" at the end hits different

Thank you so much for this raw reaction. It takes a lot to share your emotions this way. Haven't heard the song in a while, at least not with full attention, and it gave me shivers all over. Such a fantastic piece

Bro.. I’m so glad you found this style of music in your life.. you seem to have been needing it to help you through a lot of shit like it did for me and a lot of us.. better late than never!

I jumped so hard when Ronnie started screaming at the end the first time I heard this. And then I started crying. Still can't pinpoint why exactly.

Pain, rage, resentment, sadness....all wrapped up in one tragic track. You dont just hear the hopelessness, you feel it.😢 Ronnie is that rare artist that can make you THINK and FEEL at the same time. This represents how he felt when he was an addict. He knew it was killing him, but he loved it and didn't want to let it go.

This was my first time listening to/watching this too and throughout I had evanescence my immortal band version vibes, sooo good. Love it, love Ronnie

Great reaction, I love how honest you are about your feelings. Most people keep things inside for too long, and it boils over... Refreshing! Got a new subscriber for life, my guy!

I've been away from YT for a bit dealing with life stuff and couldn't wait to get back to your channel. Teddy, I JUST ADORE YOU. I absolutely love your vulnerability and how you show your emotions. I literally watched YOU the entire time (but I've seen this video/heard this song dozens of times) and your facial expressions were priceless. I freakin' love how you feel the words and the music and appreciate Ronnie's vocals. P.S. Digging the new background! Peace!

This is probably the most honest reaction i've watched so far ! I reacted exactly the same when i heard this reimagined version for the first time.

Love watching your reactions!❤🤘🔥

When you teared up, I started bawling! This song always get me. Great reaction.

I honestly cry every time I listen to this song. I love your reactions to his videos!!

You HAVE to do a reaction for the "REVAMPED" version of I am not a vampire 🖤 absolutely worth checking out if you enjoyed this!

This is by far the best reaction to this. My favourite reimagined. Big hugs.

This is exactly what I love about music. When it hits you, it hits hard. These reimagined and revamped versions are so amazing, especially for the new feelings that emerge from listening to them. I grew up listening to Falling in Reverse and I knew Ronnie had his issues but even with deep lyrics, the sound didn't match the feelings, so it was more of a rebellious type of music rather than something deep or impactful. Now as an adult I can understand the darkness he was trying to portray and how music was his escape. Love the reactions Teddy, keep up the good work.

I know it's about addiction but it's exactly how I feel about the loss of my husband (almost 5 yrs ago). It brings me to tears everytime & the ending where he screams... I feel that to my soul. 😭💔

Lordy, love watching you react to this. Especially when I realised you didnt know Tech nine was in this. Love, love, loved it.😊

I know the feeling about wanting to punch things...I'm a girl and i feel like that at times!! Glad you liked it Teddy!!

I love your reactions. I watch you all the time. Thank you for being so genuine and taking me on the journey with you!

This is my 6th video of watching your reactions to falling in reverse .. gotta say nice to see a genuine reaction got my subscription..

Thank you for such an honest review! I feel you! The raw emotion is just something else! Ronnie Radke is phenomenal!

Great reaction, love your honesty and emotions. Matches most of us who love this song.

Such a great reaction- bought tears to my eyes. Can’t wait for you to do I’m Not a Vampire and the Revamped version! It a doozy!!

I love how much you love all music . Please keep doing this cause it makes my day better ! Thanks man

I cried when i heard this. I had never heard the original... but the feelings you can FEEL them physically and i can live this as ive been through similar shit... i understand your reaction 100% This.... this is whybi love music. Because you can live through so many emotions and mental states... so many people dont really understand

First time I watched this music video I actually cried too in the end. It hit me so hard...

Chills every time I hear this song. ❤ Great reaction. Sending positive energy your way.

I know this is an older video, but you're the first reactor that reacted to the song in the same way I do! Just an incredible version!

Every word and every detail in the video means something. He has been to the bottom and back a few times. Have fun going down the Ronnie Radke AKA the Falling In Reverse rabbit hole! It's a great journey!

Such a great reaction man. I pretty much reacted the same way first time I heard the song. That ending has such a raw emotional state that you have to be a robot not reacting the way you did. Have been checking out a few of your new things in here and you got yourself another subscriber. keep up the good work!

Watching you stunned...not able to stop watching was so magical and intense.

My empathetic brother sorry I miss the premiere glad you witnessed this masterpiece ❤

What makes your reactions really good and top of all comments you got which I totally approve, is the actual fact that you don't watch the song before you film yourself reacting to it. Most other reactions videos are faking their emotions and you clearly aren't. I love all your reactions of Falling in Reverse! Overload of emotions in this one clearly. Reminds me of you Watch the world burn one. Keep it coming and hope that Ronny will see it

I love your reactions! They are so genuine. Plus I love hearing your side commentary.

The whole time at the end I was like you better not cry, because then I’ll start crying.

I‘ve heard this song 100 times and I cry every time

I fell his pain everyday😢its what keeps me alive.

The gulp when he says consume hit me too.

Loved this reaction Teddy, can’t wait to see more from you!

Your reaction at 14:18 gave me goosebumps, so much emotion ❤

Dude, your reaction is the same as mine to this song. I love your videos because it makes it all new to me me again, as I listen to this all again.

the breakdown in this song reminds me of 'what it is to burn' in finch - also another great song!

A man gonna cry to this song and voice, if he has experienced real unsolved pain

You are officially my favourite Ronnie reactors.

I really appreciate you letting your emotions show, respect

I have watched many reactions to this reimagined and yours is my favorite ❤

Today I saw your first FIR reaction, and am enjoying going thru your own personal rabbit hole with you 😊👍

Stumbled across these reactions by accident. I actually meant to click on the video right before his reaction to the 1st FIR video he reacted to (all t no shade). My stupid Roku remote is slow to respond so I tried to back out but it took a second for the action to actually happen.... it was a few seconds but I was already entranced. This man's has such a beautiful reaction to music that I was hypnotized. I could literally fall. In love with an piece of music he highlighted because of the way he reacts to it. He has such an appreciation for music-that can't be learned. That's in the soul. People that can listen to music and have a physical reaction-goosebumps, chills, tears, rage, heart break...... They don't listen to music.... They absorb it. Music takes you on a journey of love, loss, redemption, heartache, grief, sorrow....... And yearning. I've cried from the singers heartbreak though I hadn't experienced it for myself (yet.... Oh those were the good old days lol). A song about a cheating spouse had me giving my husband of 30 years some serious side eye before I realized the feelings I had weren't MY OWN! 🔥 My poor boogs ... He loves me even though I'm a fucking weirdo lol. Music appreciation man.... Whoa.... He has such a beautiful soul that I loved him instantly and hoped and that prayed good things come his way. Music can bring us together..... And It can rip is to pieces..... Btw...... I'm all girl... I love glitter, I love pink and purple and I Got the big ass- Lmao... I'm all girl, a funky chunky girl who also is very much a tomboy. I'm tattooed, I rode a motorcycle and I raise American bullies.... I'm weird...i am an enigma... Lol ... But I TOTALLY felt you when you said that you wanted to punch something lol girls feel that way too... Albeit I'm no lady. I'm a girl but I ain't no lady so maybe that's the distinction lol. No refuse to believe that.... Our sex aside.... We are all human and we are. All going through some shit and I truly believe when a song reaches down and grabs you by the balls.... Or lady balls.... Whatever... When you FEEL it it fills you up with adrenaline and you just want to.... Fight, fuck, scream, destroy.... Ack!!! Release.... It's all about release. I have punched the wall (and it really fucking hurt and I'm not doing that again).... I've Broke down and crumpled to the floor sobbing.... I've grabbed my husband and well...... We did some thangs... Whoo.... Lawd! Anyhow..... What I'm saying is girls totally get it.... I totally get that it's not ladylike to admit those things but you know what? I don't fucking care.... Like I said I ain't a lady. Kudos sir ... I love your videos. I love your appreciation for music ..... I love your beautiful spirit and I hope the world appreciates you as I do. Thank you for taking em on a journey and thank you for letting us see how music moves you..... ❤️❤️

Love your Ronnie reactions and break downs, great analogies. Since you are not a metal type person i have a suggestion for you. Jinjer , Pisces Live studio session. I would love to see you react to it.

Have to watch " I'm not a vampire " and the revamped version. Its absolutely incredible.

I’m sooo glad you did this reaction!! ❤
