i think the fact that he picks up the hockey stick before going to the stage, means that he was just a kid who wanted to play hockey.

Outstanding reaction. Best explanation of the symbolism I've heard so far!

it’s hard enough for kids to deal with one or two people that hate them, imagine having the whole world, an entire age demographic, adults online writing articles, completely hate you, as a child.

Billie Eilish's brother, Finneas, had a hand in writing and producing this song. If anyone can relate to Justin's situation, it would be Billie and Finneas.

I finally got the symbolism of the hockey stick, he is basically saying that he did not get a lot of time enjoying his childhood...so when Benny came in, it’s saying he only had a short time to enjoy his childhood

This guy had the Michael Jackson fame level as a kid...recording, rehersals, interviews, traveling, concerts...over years!

The sad part is how people now start to change their way of seeing him after he expressed the way everyone made him feel. People don't understand the affects they have on young people until there's a movement that forces them to see. SO MANY PEOPLE ignore the fact that young people have feelings. Makes me wonder what's wrong with humanity.

I second you watching the SNL version ... he could hardly look up during the lonely part when he sang it but it was perfect pitch despite the emotion... just heartbreaking. No obvious autotune either is a huge step foe him to show any flaws in his voice. Love this song, perfect for him to do.

What got me was the white roses. White roses and the color white in general, symbolize innocence. In the beginning, he was just a naive, innocent child. It scares me just thinking about all the bs he's been through to get where he is today. Thank you all for the likes❤️

When he started rapping and it cut😂

Omg. I'm not into Bieber music...but...this song! He puts his emotion into it. You can feel the sorrow. And the video was great. Really puts you there and then at the end there he is watching. This all moved me so.

I wish I could like this video twice just for the fact that you got the empty stadium reference. Wasn't a fan of the song until I saw your breakdown. Thanks!

This song hurts to listen to every time 😭

the lyrics say “everybody knows my name now” and you just call him Justin Timberlake😂

I think the reason I dig this song so much is it could’ve just as easily been an NF track, and that’s my dude right there! Great react as always.

Dude kept saying Justin timberlake but facts tho

JB was rocking the same outfit with the white and purple back in the day when he was a kid performing. Dope they dressed the young kid portraying him in same outfit for this video.

Great reaction as always. I was not a Bieber fan either when he was younger. Did not start to come around to him until his purpose album. Dude has mature immensely over the years. He is a hell of an artist now. Thanks for the consistent quality content you provide us.

Justin is the only person hearing him in the crowd 😭 bless him, man that guy needs a hug 🤗

This is a masterpiece. He’s grown so much and I’m so proud of him. Thank u for reacting!

Dude keep up the content, I love it. The mid cuts get me everytime.

Dude, your ability to understand, break things down, and explain your thoughts to an audience is amazing. Hands down best channel for reactions. Love the effort man, much love.

great reaction...I am a 63 yr. old man and the video and lyrics brought tears to my eyes. Subbed and liked.

This song hit me like a brick wall, im a mother of 3 teenage sons and its so hard growing up and to see him going through what he went through breaks my heart :(

Possibly one of my favorite reviews of a song I've ever seen. You're so well spoken, and you truly empathize and understand any music put in front of you. GOAT of reactions

Yooo that kid is Jacob Tremblay from Room, one of my favorite movies. He’s such a good young actor.

This song honestly breaks me! I've been a fan since 2010 but boy was it hard just for me to hear all the shit everyone said about him so I couldn't imagine actually being the one they were talking about❤️ I'm just happy he's married and people respect him a lot more and he got through this!

I'm so glad you made this reaction. you're probably the only one who caught every detail. great reaction! keep it up

my best subscription to date been here since 5k subs BY FAR THE BEST REACTION CHANNEL ON THE PLATFORM

Bro, your reactions are so dope. U break things down like nobody else. You're so quick to understand whats going on and explain it in a way that everyone can understand. Best reactor on KZfaq period.

As a mental health professional, this song broke my heart. I think one of the most heartbreaking things when it comes to the mental health these days is the lack of prevention. Sure, genetic predispositions and a combination of life experiences can lead to mental health issues; however, I feel we don't spend as much time actually talking about mental health like we should. There are so many ugly things that, as a society, people don't want to talk about when it comes to mental health. Instead, we spread our resources thin to provide support for the deteriorating society we live in from the aftermath of issues, never once working on preventing them before they happen. There's so much wrong with this country (the U.S.) when it comes to addressing mental health. Those of you out there struggling, just know you're not alone. There are MH professionals like myself that are trying their best to help get rid of the stigma, as well as educating people on the various aspects of mental health that are often misunderstood. I've been on both sides of treatment--you're not alone.

It’s video explains so much it tells what he had to go through as a young popstar I can’t even imagine how he was feeling writing this song I love you Justin keep up the good work

I love artists like you. Your explanation was awesome. The way you articulate expressions of other artists is elite.

I can't understand how u haven't blown up yet bro keep it up🙌

4:26 - 4:29 had me dying😂 Yo forreal great editing choice for the joke. Hilarious.

You should see the live version from SNL, it's absolutely fantastic.

Been here since like 30k and Jesus it’s crazy to see how fast you’re blowing up. Keep grinding bro💯

Honestly, this is the best REAC video I’ve seen/heard from anyone in my entire life! You’re very well spoken and I enjoyed your video very much ! Your interpretation of it all from beginning to end felt like a TED talk, no lie !

woooow..... man.... your reaction was so perfect! you really grabed all tiny informations of the video and explaned it very well! that was fire for real bro!

Tbh brother , I was waiting for your reaction after your Holy reaction but didn't got until today , and I'm again impressed with your deep understanding and explanation of song. As a Belieber , this songs was very emotional for us too and I'm so happy that general people like u gives so much time to understand and relate to Justin !! Thanks for ur efforts !!

I've been addicted to this song since I first heard it. It's so dang good and hits me in the feels

Thanks again! I would have never listened to this! But you brought it so I thought ok, I’ll check it. Writing that song had to be so cathartic. Finally being able to put all that emotion into words, probably through tears. Excellent song and breakdown.

By far the best First Reaction to this song. I've heard the song a million times but when you explained it even deeper it opened me up even more. Thank you.

This is the best reaction to this song so far. Explaining every detail..

If you’re looking for some real Bieber tracks. I’d recommend his Journals album that he made in 2013, in the midst of his troubles and controversies. “Heartbreaker” is definitely a good introduction.

I wasn’t a fan of “Yummy” either, until I looked into the deeper meaning of the song. It would be interesting for you to react to the music video after understanding that it’s not about food or anything like that, it’s about child sex trafficking and his experience with people in Hollywood who did that to him and other famous kids.

2:02 he already shed a tear and justin didn't even start singing yet. it shows how powerful justin's message is.

This was great. Love JB. His record Purpose is amazing.

Love your reactions! I love how often you unintentionally get ahead of the song because you pick up on where it is going. Love your insight and critical eye. I'm glad you decided to stick with KZfaq.❤❤😊😊

This is a powerful song. It breaks my heart on what he went thru. I cried when I saw him at the end. You can see the hurt in his face.😢

You are too dhope. The best reaction so far. And trust me I've watched like 20 reaction videos on this track already!

Love that you’re doing Justin Bieber on your channel - it’s like I come home to my lyrics channel and it’s more than just one genre just like me 🤗

I didnt even think about the Lyme disease when he said "everybody saw me sick" I thought he was referencing his mental state

Thanks for describing it clearly.. I'm crying :(

Outstanding reaction. You brought everything on point!

Best reaction of this video so far! I subbed.

Thanks for reacting to this!!

Just want you to know that I’m a fan from Egypt! You’re really blowing up man ♥️

Quarantine bringing us quality content!

you nailed this. exactly everything i felt and GOD soooo emotional. thank you. your reaction to this song is my fav.... this is his masterpiece

You always have the best reactions my guy.

Man, much respect for every of your reactions! You're everytime right into a target.

This is what we call a reaction. A breakdown 👏🏾

Great reaction! You really know how to break it down, lyrics and videos! I guess that’s why this is your FT job now 😊🙏🏼👌🏼🙌🏼👎🏼👏🏼💙🇨🇦

I love how much appreciation u have for the depth of this video and lyrics. Amazing reaction! 👏

The world owe justin an apology.

Also, I really appreciate how you put the last ad right after you say "peace". Idk if you control that, but I appreciate it either way

Yo I started watching you back around the J. Cole Climb Back reaction and only used to watch the songs I liked but now I watch pretty much all them just because of your reactions and breakdowns....your breakdowns are amazing keep up the big work and your gonna be big one day

Glad I found your channel. Your reactions are right on. Wasnt a fan of Beiber as a youngster, now I love him❤️❤️❤️❤️

What a dope reaction and a dope song. It hits different.

Outstanding analyze, as always. Best KZfaq-reactor out there💫

This is best reaction channel ever

Amazing reaction and analysis 😊 love your reaction videos!

This review is exactly how I felt about the track from beginning to end. Instant sub

Dude you're so fucking smart! I love your reactions and the way you try to understand both the meaning of the video and the lyrics really well. Im watching you for a while now and your content is real quality. Keep up the good work!

Awesome reaction. In reference to the case of roses at the start. He used to give out a rose to a random girl every show, one less lonely girl.

i have seen quite a few analysis videos of this track and you have summed it up perfectly. Kudos to you

Excellent analysis/dissection. Thank you.

Loved the react, you earned yourself another sub. Love your interpretations of the lyrics

Great reaction vid and breakdown bro!!

been waiting for this!

I recommend I’ll Show You from his Purpose album if you want some more music similar to this song where he shows his true feelings.

You’re the GOAT of reactions my friend

Another song I love so much! I am a 51 year old Belieber now too!! He's had a few songs that I thought were "cute" but this stuff he has put out lately is so amazing!

Wow you're so good with your breakdowns. No matter the genre you are so good.

Literally i can't even imagine what he has gone through the whole world use to hate him and he was just a kid doing stupid stuff what every other kid do but he got judged for it and still do!! But in the past 5 years he has gone through immense change as a person and artist as well that only few people could do!, He is now my biggest inspiration ever like no one can live or even imagine the life he has lived!!

LOVE Justin's new music & vibe . Thank you Justin for sharing your gift with the world . God bless . ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 Mark (Toronto)

This is the best reaction I ever seen👍🏻 good job bro
