System of a Down - Ariels in the Sky reaction. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p6mqlKyl29O9mGg.html

The song was originally called Suicide but the record company refused to release it under that name. So they cut/chopped suicide in half hence Chop Suey. Great reaction by the way

Great Reaction. Daron (The Guitarist) said the song is about how people are unfairly judged when they lose their life because of a drug addiction or because of suicide. "I cry when angels deserve to die" is basically saying it makes him sad when good people die because of their unfortunate circumstances. "grab a brush and put a little makeup, hide the scars to fade away the shakeup, why'd you leave the keys up on the table" essentially saying people put on "makeup" and hide their pain to avoid judgement, and that if your going to commit suicide you wont need your keys to get back in the house. For the bridge the singer Serj actually randomly opened a bible and put his fingers on a paragraph and it was the "father into your hands I commend my spirit" part, It's actually very interesting If you wanna find out more about how it came that Serj randomly picked a book and stuff, here is a link for a 6 minute video that's explaining it, the singer himself also talks about it kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ec53jMV7urHOYas.html . Then they played off of that and related it to the overall theme of the song. Really deep song by System of a Down, but most people don't realize it because of how intense the song is. The name of the song is Chop Suey because it was called Suicide but it had to have a more radio friendly name so they chopped the word suicide and just for the joke they called it Chop Suey. More System of a Down, they are amazing. They literally don't have a single bad song or album. Check out their song Question! and also songs are there for peoples own interpretation so it doesn't necessarily mean what you thought this song is about was wrong.

Man...best reaction of this song, you really can elaborate interpretations and thoughs...that's great!

Underrated reaction video. I've seen a lot of them however its one of the Best.

all system of a down songs lyrics makes your brain running u should react more of their songs . U gonna be amazed

Stated before but you are probably the only song reviewer of this song on YT to know where the reference of the "why have you forsaken me" lyric and knowing its source. The singer stated in an interview he had writers block and went to his producer's library, picked out a book (the Bible),opened it, and put a finger on any page/line, and this was the text that it pointed to. Claims it was meant to be and fit with the song. Great job!

this guy gets it and i respect him for it

No wayyy i'm French, and i'm listening chop suey since 2002 and this is the first time i understand, thanks to you, that the "father" is god !!! No wayyyy.... OMFGGG Thank you. And your reaction is so nice ! You're very smart, you've understand it at first listening ! Or maybe i'm stupid AF. Both i think ^^

I love all SOAD songs, but my personal favorite is Question. It has some of the most intricate drum and guitar interplay, and the message is just as deep as in this one.

Your reaction is of a genius. You actually think it out. Love it. Texas USA

Wow, this is one of the greatest reaction to this song I've ever seen. I would love to see your reaction to Red Hot Chili Peppers songs. Maybe to "Californication" or "Dark Necessities" 😄

The crowd on this video, and the overall stage setup, always makes me think of Papa Roach "Cut My Life Into Pieces", another good one to react to.

Brilliant reaction :) subbed! hope to see more SYSTEM!!

Great react ! These guys are genius from lyrics to music to video!!!! So ahead of their time ❤❤❤❤

One of the greatest songs ever created or written.

I just discovered this chanel and its really cool , i like your reactions old man ,you rock keep it up!!!

hey this was really fun to watch, I loved the way you dissected the lyrics to come to an interpretation of the song, that was pretty cool. if you wanna do some more System of a Down at some point, Hypnotize is also a nice song that I think shows off their vocal talents nicely.

Man, glad I stumbled on this account. Good stuff man, keep it up!

Love this band! And loving your reactions

Always enjoy your insights and interpretation!

Great reaction mate, you looked for meaning in this song and it is packed like all of their material. If you haven't heard it, you really need to check your their song "B.Y.O.B.". It's not the general 'Bring Your Own Bottle/Beer', but "Bombs". The song was a protest to the Iraq invasion of the early 2000s and although comes across as a pacey metal song with lots of switch ups and a catchy/party hook, the meaning and lyrics is very very deep

I liked your reaction and how you explained the lyrics thanks

Having a shop-suey alone is a thing that mean you're alone and kinda bored.We see it often in older movies back then.

I didn't read the comments to see if someone else has said this but, That line thats starts with Father and then why have you forsaken me was taken from a book. Serg (the lead singer and writer of the song) had completed the song except for that section. He went to one of his producers (I think) and told him about the song and he needed to finish that section but was stuck. The guy told him to go over to the shelf (where there were tons of books) and grab any book and open to any page. He did and that is what was written on that page and that's how it made it into this song. There is a video on YT about this that tells it way better than I do but thats the basics of it.

Nice analysis as always, have a good day

Damn i wanna listen to this song for the first time again

Awesome reaction bro! I never knew what the song was about but have heard it for many years...in 1 video, you described what you thought it meant....and I totally agree. Amazing...good job.

I love system of a down they are amazing!

It's about the struggle with the three minded fight with suicide..

This song is amazing! My 4 yr old kicked ass on Rock Band with this one!

Excellent reaction

You have a new french subscriber !! 🤜

The dish chop suey was invented in America by Chinese immigrants where they would take leftover chopped vegetables and mix it with left over meat and leftover noodles from other dishes with some sweet and sour sauce and soy sauce in a wok. It became a big hit in America and no 2 restaurants do it the same. It is one of the most common dishes found in Chinese take out, but it's also one of the ones that is never going to taste the same from place to place. The song title is a commentary on how America is a country founded and populated by the "leftovers" of other countries, mixed together and bound together by a common belief that things can get better by working together.

Dude, u are great in reactions

“I am better than u” is also in other song by them - Cigaro. Just check out BDO live version

if i’m not mistaken, serj said that they had trouble finishing the song so rick rubin told him to pick a book and just pick a random page and point at some words, the bridge of the song is what he got.

This song is partly about the crucifixion. More system of a down reactions please. They dont make one bad song. Great video

Nice take on the song brother

It is Jesus crying to the heavens- self righteous suicide- Why have you forsaken me? "When angels deserve to die."

I like your reactions. You have the attitude for punk rock with justice message, Strung Out - Population control. Pennywise - Unknown road ok continue your nice and authentic review dude.

I think we will never see a video like chop suey

I love this man’s shirt!

I see self righteousness more about always being right or justified in whatever action one is taking.

лайк авансом за прошлую реакцию

Chop Suey is just because the record label wouldn't let them call the song "suicide." Became "Suey-cide" then Chop Suey.

Yes sir. U get it

Yiu will be amazed by System of the Down.... Powerful meaning in their songs.... You should do more. Spiders is good. Toxicity is too.... All their music is great.

"with their food song" no, that's Chic 'n' Stu

Daron's vocals in this song feel like it really completes the melody, gives a feeling even more sad. Appreciate you not using clickbait man and this song is definitely a 'wow for sure. Would love to see you react to the song Ode to Sleep by twenty one pilots

Amazing song

thumbs up just because you named it old guy. i disagree with your title, but i guess thats on you

I recommend : Meshuggah -Dancers of a discordant system. And... well this is the first video of you that i have seen, but be very carefull if you react to Daddy- Korn, it is a very very hard song so i warn you. (prepare to cry if possible)

Comment sections in reaction videos are so lame. You go in here to see what people think of his reaction and way more than half of the comments are, try this song next!

You right

Man, you are like Drax from Guardians of the Galaxy, if he becomes a KZfaqr.

мне очень нравится. Я обожаю SOAD. Спасибо за реакцию! 🟥🟦🟧

You are the ONLY PERSON WHO RECOGNIZED THE WORDS SPOKEN BY JESUS ON THE CROSS.

💯

For one friend this song is about genre violence, which is really interesting. Wake up Grab a brush and put a little makeup Hide the scars to fade away the shakeup Why'd you leave the keys upon the table? Here we go to create another fable... The girl dies, so the man (probably in drugs: "FATHER part") was blaming God and then he commits suicide

Nailed it on the last words of Jesus buddy.

“Father into thy hands I commend my spirit” and “my God my God why have you forsaken me?” are two of the Seven Sayings spoken by Jesus as he died upon the cross. So that where those come from. The most famous is probably “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.”

Great Grear Great You are Intense too

You are the only reactor who has noticed that those are the words Jesus spoke to God. Great job!!

“THE UNDERGROUND” by Meg Myers

He’ll yeah mannnnn

August Burns Red - Ghosts

They weren't allowed to call it 'suicide'

Girl: Dad will you sing me a song from your generation? Dad: I...Cry...When Angels deserve to... Girl: Aww Beautiful Dad...DIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! lol... I had the privilege of seeing SOAD back in 2005 (Portland OR) and still to this day, stands up there among the best shows that I've ever been to, which is a considerable amount... 🤩😍🤘 The most self riotous people on Earth have to be religious folk... 😕🙄😏

Now listen to Sober by Tool from the perspective of Judas and the Last Supper.

Yes do “Jim Jones” by SKYND like suggested already it’s really good . She has a good voice and all her songs are about real life murders very talented music

aw man he reminds me of my old man, like they probably have similar music tastes and saw the same bands growing up. but also they can appreciate the newer stuff and find the deeper meaning even if they feel it enough edit: AND he sees the religious connections, which my pops would totally notice seeing as how he has a fuckin giant tattoo of a cross

It's about the god suicide in the crucifixión

Please react to Rumi, song by Serj Tankian about his son. So good and melodic!!! Same singer of Chop Suey!

You want a song that’ll hit the heaviest part of your brain, do a react on “Jim Jones” by SKYND 🤯🤯🤯

More System of a down music!

Love your reaction, please react another song, its called B.Y.O.B. That a great and very interesting

YOU HAVE TO REACT TO System of a Down BYOB. Its their best song!

No, means that that particular suicide is the moral thing to do.
