Dude I don’t think you know just how important you are to people like me who struggle sometimes with depression. Sharing your gift of humor and your perspectives brings me so much joy. Keep doing what you’re doing. You are helping people. Thanks

I love this song and it's very deep. Even the video has meaning. His walk is a representation of the path of life, the people he encounters are the people and events that we encounter through our lives. The guy with the fridge on a dolly is like a big life altering event that was narrowly avoided. The people he bumped into are the little speed bumps that help shape our lives. The girl in the car is a bad relationship, the car is the large event that he was able to cross and move on from but she didn't move on as easily and followed representing how a love can effect your life long term even after it's ended. The lady he knocked down was like an encounter where he hurt someone else's life in some way and he was recognizing that but still life continues without looking back. The girl that checked him out was like a perfect fling that came and went and left only a fond memory. The car that actually made him pause was a major life event that held him in place for a while, maybe good maybe bad but significant enough to make his life take pause but in the end it too did pass and life continued as always. And the end when the other four followed with him is like the people in your life who are there for the long haul whoever they may be they stick with you till the end while still living their own lives respectively.

His name is Richard Ashcroft and he's also responsible for brilliant tracks like 'Lucky Man' and 'The Drugs Don't Work' PLEASE check him out. He's one of the UK's leading songwriters.

"he might shoulder you and you gotta get a new cerebellum" ...lol the cerebellum is the part of the BRAIN that controls coordination. BRILLIANT!

"Can't change my mold" really hits home for everyone. We get stuck in our own head

Whenever I hear this song, I think of Cruel Intentions

Even through the controversy...this song was too true. No one could escape the reality of our futures. And we ALL knew this was it. Work, a hand-full of change, death.

This song defined a generation. And its mine. Mine and so SO many others. This song came out around 1997 and listening to it now it just reminds so many of us of a better time, and easier time. This song will forever be a nostalgia trip, back to when the only thing we had to worry about was just being kids. Most of us didn't listen to this until years later, or really appreciate the lyrics until that magic was lost. A song written for an entire generation just a little too soon.

If you have chance listen to the verve, drugs don’t work. Classic man 👍

“He might shoulder you and then you gotta get a new cerebellum.” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣

You're one of the only reaction channels for music that actually pays attention to the lyrics on a first listen even without a lyric video. Much respect for getting into the lyrical side and I'd actually say you should tackle some bands with great writing and play the lyric video for your first listen. Something like Incubus (The Warmth, Nice to Know You, Idiot Box, Dig) or The Shins (So Says I, Caring is Creepy, New Slang) or Blues Traveler (Hook). Love to see you watch lyric videos for some of those songs and see if they resonate for you. Keep up the great work man, love the videos!

He takes staying in his own lane to the extremes! He's bowling over anyone that's in his way.

Bittersweet Symphony is probably their best known song - and awesome, however Sonnet and The Drugs Don't Work are to in my mind better songs. The Drugs Don'ts Work, no matter how many times I hear it, gives me goosebumps, it is beautiful.

This song hits me right in the ol' teenage feels, lol

There's also the Verve Pipe and their song Freshman. 😎

Fun fact: the music sampled is from a Rolling Stones live concert album and they sued him for royalties. Until a year or two ago, they made all the money from this amazing song. It basically forced him into one hit wonder status. Everyone knew this song when it came out. During the peer to peer music downloading days this was one of the most pirated songs, and just about everyone on any network had a copy. What he's saying cuts deep into the social psyche.

This song and oasis’ first two records are etched into British working class culture and I don’t think they’ll ever leave

"I'm a million different people from one day to the next"

Lucky Man should be your next delve Into the Verve..

He is in his own bubble, life around may affect him but he is in his mould, he can pretend to be okay, be norrmal,a million different people from one day to the next but hes always the same underneath. hope you enjoyed the birthday celebrations :)

The video for this song is his life. He is walking his path and there are obstacles in the way that he has to push through. Pretty girls, abusive relationships, old people that think they know better, tough guys that think they can scare him etc. He takes them all in his stride, which he never breaks, and he overcomes them and continues on his way. This is a great tune and one of The Verve's best known but 'The drugs don't work' is better IMHO. It's about the lead singers struggles with substance abuse and the collapse of his relationships with everyone around him.

Massive Britpop band... The album that this is taken from, "Urban Hymns," is just epic... not a track on there that you'd fast forward. Bit of copyright controversy over this song... you can read up on that yourself. Also, there's an alternative version of this vid in which he bumps the wrong person and takes a kicking off three thugs!

I've always loved this song. Slave to money then you die... Never more true words ever spoken. WORD!

Crazy how you can listen to songs that will randomly have you in your feelings for no reason at all.

One of my favorite songs ever!

Ah yes.. 90s Britpop at it’s finest, you should react to their song Lucky Man 👌

React to ‘the drugs don’t work’ next from the Verve. Top band! Nice reaction!

Happy birthday 🎉 hope you had awesome day 🎁🎂

THIS IS A SONG THE WHOLE ENTIRE WORLD CAN RELATE TOO!!!! ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAVS

Yay, welcome back. Hope your trip was AMAZING!!!

😂😂😅😅 the Cerebellum is in the Brain not the Shoulder... LOL . You always making me laugh !!! Much Peace and Love....

This song is deep, I see it really got inside you. I love Verve. Talented rock band. I love the video. We walk through life, encounter many things, setbacks, mistakes, type of people and experiences but you got stay strong and keep moving forward and let no one hold you back.

Interesting fact, there's an alternate version of the video where he gets beat up by 3 people he bumps into and continues walking afterward.

Loads of respect for putting tunes from my teen years on. Brings good memories back. Recently found your channel and can’t stop watching. Keep up the good work. Much appreciated

I saw him perform this live a couple years ago. He was really nice and took a few minutes to talk to the audience after the show.

What's up man I listened to this song every morning before school on mtv when it was just about music how you doin so glad to see man love the new merch man looks good on you but jimi looks better man every day I see him on your wall man keep smiling and have a great week dude man

Love your channel! Please react to Stevie Nicks and Tom Petty's duet: Stop Draggin My Heart Around

I just found your Chanel and I'm obsessed and will be binging!

Happy birthday Mr. Video!!!!

Missed you !! Glad to see your back !!

Have a great day Leo!! Your such an amazing soul! Much love 💘

Yaaaay I hope you had a great Birthday weekend!👌♥️ Love this song!

Haven’t heard this in forever...thanks🖖🏻🇨🇦

Those violins get me every time

Thank you for sharing . I’m really proud of all the British musicians that are being well received in react videos but also I love to hear music from other countries that I might have missed .👍🏻🇬🇧

the manc swagger I effin love the verve sooooo many great tunes and Richard ashcroft solo stuff ain't bad 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Happy Birthday to ya man. You've got a great channel here.

Love your reactions, shared your channel with my bro

Thank you. I had heard this song, and remembered liking it, but I had no idea of the name of the group. It's the first time I'm seeing the video. Great reaction. You have great ears too. I couldn't make out all of the lyrics. I agree with some of the commenters. You have a wonderful capacity to listen and understand the emotion behind the lyrics. That's a gift. You're funny too. Another gift. Peace and blessings.

"Lucky Man" is another good song by The Verve. Well, you've now heard Oasis and the Verve, two of the biggest bands from the British "Britpop" indie rock scene of the 1990s. Next you need to hear some by the other two big names of the era - Pulp and Blur. Pulp's "Common People" and Blur's "Parklife" would be good possibilities.

another great.. have an awesome day and congrats on the new shirt

Heard this on television alot in movies or commercials. Love it. The mv is very get tf out of my way. I always like stuff like that. The comments are very interesting also. This is prob the only channel where I read comments 🤣 anyway. As usual love watching you get in the groove 😉

not sure if you were wiping tears at the end but this song always gets to me and Ive heard it 1000s of times over the years. Thank you for doing what you do and sharing it with us:)

Yes, finally!! Thank you!!!

I loved this song the very first time I heard it when it came out in the late 90s. I watched this video on MTV or VH1, I can't remember which. In the middle of the night, just chillin in my chair. .......... I've loved it ever since. Thanks for reacting to this song brother. I always enjoy your videos

I just want to say that your videos always make me smile. I just love your personality. Lol Never change!

500 more subs & you did it!! I'm SO EXCITED!! 🙂❤🙂 I'm still pushing for Foo Fighters "The Pretender"!!🔥🔥🔥

Awesome song, 😊love your new shirt!!! It's Brilliant❤

One of my favorites! The violins coming in at the beginning are so beautiful ♡

Extremely cool song and video. This jam will forever more be on every collection of Hits from the 90s. Regardless of the controversy behind it's creation, this is a great jam. It hits and hits hard. Great reaction.

Cool shirt. Great reaction

Damn man. I ADORE your videos Mr. Video. You do movies mostly now, but I do miss you reacting to music. I know it might be impossible given how things get claimed and demonitized, but I love watching this. Thanks for just being awesome!

Richard Ashcroft, 'song for the lovers' is a big must!

Such a great song, lots of feels from back in the day.

awwwww, cheer up Mr Video the universal consciousness has you :)

You're almost at 100K!!! 😍😍✌❤🔥🎉

Great song great shirt welcome back Mr V✌

My man. Awesome as usual. Thank you.

As the young people say this song is an entire mood. Definitely a good headphones song. Not as good at Bohemian Rhapsody, what is, but the strings are amazing and full in headphones.

Loved the video man! Big up that poster also 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

You're right Mr! That lady was walking up on him pretty hard 🤣🤣🤣

Love your videos man

I double dog dare ya to listen to "Iris" by The Goo Goo Dolls or "Wonderwall" by Oasis or "Angel" by Sarah MacLachlan

Your doing my favorite 90's jams ...thank thank thank you!!!!!

Dope song.. Brings back memories type of shit

Many people have *heard* this song, but few people have really *listened* to it. Thanks for being one of the few that have.

Am from UK England loved your reaction too the verve bittersweet sympathy this song was quite big hit over here in the 90s

I can’t stop watching your videos lol please don’t stop making reactions ❤️

I really love how you react to every detail not just about the song but the video itself 👍🤘 keep it up brother 👍🤘💚

Great reaction to a video I hadn’t seen for a long time. Also you did a particularly good “it’s different links” voice today. Don’t think these things go unnoticed 😂

I heard this song a lot and never saw the video (and never knew the backstory from the comments) until now. This time seeing the video made all the difference

This song can change your whole mood and outlook for the day.

One of my favorite songs.

Please check out ‘Lucky man’ by the Verve and yes you got it right. This song was actually written for them by one of the members of the Rolling Stones.

Love your new shirt!

Dude where ya been? Glad you're back.

So glad to see you! ❤️ Love the new shirt - believe I’m going to order one tonight 🤗 Don’t change your mold! Be yourself 😘 Great song! Try some INXS soon - “Need You Tonight”...”New Sensation”...”Suicide Blonde” 🎶🔥🎶🔥🎶

Bro you’re about to hit a 100k hellzzz yeahhhh

I always thought this song was for men in their 20s trying to make their way in a difficult world and struggling to come to terms with their own weaknesses, like I was when I first heard it in 1997. It spoke to me directly and made me feel like I was not alone. Judging by your reaction, it just spoke to you too.

Happy Belated Birthday my friend....

Love the shirt 😍

Great reaction, as always

Your reactions are on point my friend

Yee! It's good to see back from celebrating😄

great song. they had one AMAZING album. the song "lucky man" which was on the end of the song, another great one. i personally love their song "sonnet". oh and a similar video to this by "massive attack" with a song "unfinished sympathy", is also amazing.

Hey Mr Video! Diggin’ the new threads! Love your new merch! 😎🤘👍 I want that hat! Love me some Nirvana! Rock On! 🤘🎵😎

We hoping a whole lot of people can change their mold. It’s for the good of everyone ❤️

When this came out in the uk, every one was singing. Classic

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BOOOOIIIIII!!!

it is more entertaining to see and listen to you than the video. Greetings from Chile, on the other side of the world
