Yes…I very much agree with the both of you! 😉👍 It seems like it would be quite obvious but you’d be surprised just how many “reactions” that I’ve seen where the meaning somehow evades them and goes right over their head ffs! 🤦♀️😬🤷♀️ Even worse imo are the people who for whatever reason, don’t seem to realize that they should be reading the words that Tyler is saying during that section where he and the 2 hazmat guys are kneeling right before Tyler says the “what will they be like tomorrow” in that distorted voice he often uses and the song kicks off again? It’s kinda baffling considering that the freaking words are right there captioned ffs!? 🤦♀️🤷♀️😅
Tyler said as they got more involved in the music industry he was discouraged to find out how many songs weren't written by the artists who sang them and how little some artists were involved in the creative process or don't even like the genre of music they release, they just do it to find commercial succes. He and Josh have always tried to do as much themselves as possible and 'kept the circle small' and only release music they actually enjoy.
The black hands and neck represent him being under control by Blurryface/NICO. It also symbolizes his insecurities when he writes music (hands) and when he sings (neck).
The songs that 100% relate to the lore are in order below with the album they’re on as well - you can catch some smaller things in other videos, but these all link together: - Heavydirtysoul (Blurryface) - Jumpsuit (Trench) - Nico and the Niners (Trench) - Levitate (Trench) - Saturday (Scaled and Icy) - The Outside (Scaled and Icy) - Overcompensate (Clancy) - Navigating - Paladin Strait Understanding their music as a whole will help with the storyline too, but those above are directly related to the lore and all link together For the colors: Black and Red are in the Blurryface album when they’re battling Blurryface Yellow is in Trench - a color of hope to defeat Blurryface (Nico) Blue is in Scaled and Icy - where they’ve given into Blurryface and are trapped Back to Black/Red for Clancy where they’re back to battle Blurryface There’s so much to the story but you’ll continue to piece it together
Thank you!! Someone else on Twitter/X is helping us as well and gave pretty much the same list, with a couple more in between that we'll also cover!! Appreciate you! 🍻
@@BeersBarsthere are also several songs on Trench that don’t have music videos that really add to the lore. Totally not necessary but on your own you should really listen to Bandito (Trench) and Leave The City (Trench) for filling out understanding the lore. The album after Trench is Scaled and Icy, is according to lore supposed to be an album done when Tyler has been trapped by the 9 bishops and forced to write a propaganda album of upbeat songs.
I’ve been to over 100 concerts from almost every genre. Twenty One Pilots has been my favorite show I’ve ever been to and I’ve seen everyone from AC/DC to John Mayer, Elton John to Dave Mathew’s, Billy Joel to Pearl Jam in their primes. Hands down, Twenty One Pilots is a whole other experience. I’m going to see them for the third time in Denver in August! Can’t wait!
The ‘clique’ will be with you on this journey. Welcome. Just let the comments guide you B&B, it’s worth it…the lyrics, lore, the music, the artistry. Go with it and you will love it.
this song is from the album blurryface. that album was the first album in history to see every track be certified by the RIAA. That means that every single tune featured on the full-length has now gone gold, platinum, or in some cases, multi-platinum.
I absolutely hated them until two months ago. Now they are my favorite band and I just spent $300 on a ticket for the pit at their concert in Baltimore in September. I live in NC. 🤣
Just saw them for the 4th and 5th time in Atlanta and Orlando, which led me back to reactions for the songs I love. Their music is fantastic and they are awesome live. Worth every penny. Great reaction!
Just saw them for the 4th and 5th time in Atlanta and Orlando, which led me back to reactions for the songs I love. Their music is fantastic and they are awesome live. Worth every penny. Great reaction! And Josh is a total beast on the drums. He started playing keyboard and singing on the latest, too.
Loving how you guys appreciating their songs so far. I'm deep in the TOP rabbit hole for the past 8 years already, and it's such an amazing ride! I really recommend you to check out their "Ode to sleep" video. It's not just a huge banger, but it's also a good portrait of their journey from their early days
My take on the last part as someone new to 21 Pilots and their stories: Fame and Success kneel to the Camera, the Artist kneels, the Crowd kneels. Fame and Success subjugate the Singer and, in turn, the Crowd. The Artist turns their back on Fame and Success, stands, and reveals themselves to the Crowd. The Crowd stands, revealing themselves to the Artist. The Artist and Crowd connect.
So happy you caught the mic flip! Yes, this song shows why TOP has created their own genre-less Lane! Loving your journey, I think you're gonna love all their stuff! 🔥❤|-/💛🔥
You'd love to see them live. Well, the new tour dates are out. I don't know if any tickets are still available, but it is a show that you really do not want to miss. I have my tickets for September, and I can't wait!!
Whataaappp Buzz Fam. As a clique personal myself, just don't overwhelm them. Take it step by step as they want to go on the journey together with us. But everything you've said is straight. I think your on a good path... and again I'm ALWAYS down for some TøP. Love ya both, and love ya clique ! |-/
This is my #1 favorite TØP song. 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥 I took my son and his partner to their show in Seattle about a year and a half ago - he introduced me to them. He introduced me to NF too, in 2016, who is my #1 favorite artist ever. TØP and NF fan bases intersect a lot 😊 💖
The stuff on his neck is from Nico, aka Blurry Face. Tyler is Blurry Face, and Nico is Blurry Face. Blurry Face is neither Tyler nor Nico. There you go!
For even more amazing josh dun drumming you should check out the tøp x mutemath version of lane boy. It's fire and there is a drum "conversation" at the end of the song.
I CANNOT wait until y'all get into Clancy bc they made music vids for EVERY TRACK, but I also hope you'll check out some of their live shit, like "Trees" @ Fox Theater. Also, "Cut My Lip" is 1 of my fav songs ever
Twenty One Pilots official put out a list of the order to watch all the videos for the lore. If you were curious and wanted to understand what led up to the Clancy album th-cam.com/play/PL3roRV3JHZzaU_kQ4-7uv-ahPbFabFmRW.html&si=CyVKSRZ7ytJ18upG
😆 we have an album reaction coming soon but have been notified that before we record it, we need to check out their lore first, so got a lot more coming!
you have to go scaled and icy, first.. that album is so vibrant and "fun" cheerie etc.. but tied to tranch and clancy.. where clancy is their escape back to trench.. i LOVE how NOTHING They do is "just" putting out songs and videos.. and yes, Josh is amazing on the drums.. check it out when he gets carried onto the fans on a smaller set and plays during a show!
Yea Tyler’s “not dancing” is probably one of my favorite things about him honestly 😅 like seriously tho…he’s simultaneously the worst and best dancer ever imo! He sucks and he knows it…but he doesn’t freaking care whatsoever and so…obviously I absolutely love it ffs! So I cannot help but smile whenever he does his signature “not dancing” live or otherwise! 😅 Also…YES you are 100% correct…as my guy Josh Dunn is an absolute monster on the drums! In fact there’s never been a time where I have seen anyone, even pro or casual drummer give Josh anything other than heavy praise really, which isn’t something that I can say about the vast majority of drummers out there…say for maybe just a small handful of drummers past or present really! 😉👍😁
It's really sad that your viewers don't watch these TOP videos. 7.5k views after a month? Meanwhile, some rapper I've never heard of has 135k views in the same time lol But, at least yall recognize and respect the craft that is Tyler Joseph. I mean, could he be the most underrated yet famous rapper of our generation?
Is this not an all time bar???? They think this thing is a highway If it was our way, we'd have a tempo change every other time change 'Cause our minds change on what we think is good I wasn't raised in the hood But I know a thing or two about pain and darkness If it wasn't for this music I don't know how I would have fought this Regardless, all these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless Honest, there's a few songs on this record that feel common I'm in constant confrontation with what I want and what is poppin' In the industry, it seems to me that singles on the radio are currency My creativity's only free when I'm playin' shows
This song is so FIRE! But then again this is TOP we're talking about, so is that really a surprise? 😄 I'm so glad you're enjoying the ride through their catalog, and I can't wait to find out which song you check out next! I'd like to bump @ericstockman7405 's perfect rundown. They give all the videos you need that feature the lore, in order, if you'd like to get the full experience! 👍
"Fame" and "Success" can be toxic, hence, the suits. He also says, "Why do I kneel to these concepts?"
And at the end when he does it his way, fame and success bow to him. At least that is how I see it.
Yes…I very much agree with the both of you! 😉👍

Yes. And at the end, the fame and success kneel to him.
Josh Dunn is an absolute demon on the drums.
The songs that 100% relate to the lore are in order below with the album they’re on as well - you can catch some smaller things in other videos, but these all link together:
- Heavydirtysoul (Blurryface)
- Jumpsuit (Trench)
- Nico and the Niners (Trench)
- Levitate (Trench)
- Saturday (Scaled and Icy)
- The Outside (Scaled and Icy)
- Overcompensate (Clancy)
- Navigating
- Paladin Strait
Understanding their music as a whole will help with the storyline too, but those above are directly related to the lore and all link together
For the colors:
Black and Red are in the Blurryface album when they’re battling Blurryface
Yellow is in Trench - a color of hope to defeat Blurryface (Nico)
Blue is in Scaled and Icy - where they’ve given into Blurryface and are trapped
Back to Black/Red for Clancy where they’re back to battle Blurryface
There’s so much to the story but you’ll continue to piece it together

4th time - going in August to the Phx show, so excited!!!

They worked hard, stuck to their guns & made it the way they wanted. In the end Fame & Success kneeled to them & they danced all over it.
Each album has their own color pattern
💯 Scaled and Icy color scheme is my favorite so far
7:39 "kinda like a blur to me" *looks in camera* hehe hilarious, thank you hehe I like that joke uwuwu
Drummer is Josh. singer is Tyler. You'll learn their roles during the lore journey
this song is from the album blurryface. that album was the first album in history to see every track be certified by the RIAA. That means that every single tune featured on the full-length has now gone gold, platinum, or in some cases, multi-platinum.
21 will always be my favorite concerts all 4 times were amazing
I absolutely hated them until two months ago. Now they are my favorite band and I just spent $300 on a ticket for the pit at their concert in Baltimore in September. I live in NC. 🤣
Car Radio next boys!
Just saw them for the 4th and 5th time in Atlanta and Orlando, which led me back to reactions for the songs I love.

Wait til you do "Car Radio"! You guys will also like " Fairly Local!!! Both so good!

Ode to Sleep IS a banger though 😭
The fast section of this song is great, TOP have some absolute bangers, crowds are always awesome as well
TRUE ARTISTS!
They do not sound like anyone else
No one else sounds like them
True art
You guys are killing it. Heavy dirty soul and levitate are going to make you ultimate fans
and trees.. never forget about Trees.
HeavyDirtySoul - Excellent.
Levitate - Not so much.
@@danielgardecki1046 Levitate is the part when Josh and Tyler separate. Rap heavy. These boys will love it

yall should def get tickets to their clancy tour that starts next month
So happy you caught the mic flip! Yes, this song shows why TOP has created their own genre-less Lane! Loving your journey, I think you're gonna love all their stuff! 🔥❤|-/💛🔥
Their US tour starts in August. I'm sure there's still some tickets out there. You will not regret seeing them live. They are amazing!
Car Radio will leave you with your mouths wide open! #TrustMe
Cincinnati, Bunbury Music Festival.
I'm in this video, sort of.
So glad y'all are on this journey!
One of my favorites. This hits hard in the car with speakers for real
Twenty one pilots are one of a kind band. Love them
2:50 one Bob Marley lyric that has stuck with me since my youth is, "who feels it knows it"

You guys need to go to one of their concerts, for sure! It was one of the best experiences of my life!!!
This is my #1 favorite TØP song. 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
I took my son and his partner to their show in Seattle about a year and a half ago - he introduced me to them.
He introduced me to NF too, in 2016, who is my #1 favorite artist ever. TØP and NF fan bases intersect a lot 😊 💖
Loving y’all’s reactions!! Keep going, they literally don’t miss!!!
Awesome reaction guys
The stuff on his neck is from Nico, aka Blurry Face. Tyler is Blurry Face, and Nico is Blurry Face. Blurry Face is neither Tyler nor Nico. There you go!
“They say stay in your lane, boy” refers to the record label.
Gonna see them in Sacramento in August.. They are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! you have to see them!
They never stay in their lane. Amazing reaction, Ode To Sleep?
Loving the reactions!!
They have an official playlist for the lore on their channel as well….its labeled ‘story’
been on this album for years,glad you guys found it.fuckin class
OG TOP song, pure fire!
Love to see you gettin into their song
Hail to Josh Dun on the drums!
With twenty one pilots, you have to be aware of everything. EVERYTHING is an Easter egg, and nothing is done by coincidence 😅
Whaa?? I clicked on this so fast! 😁
i just love you guys reaction
Forget sanity, forget salary, forget vanity, my morality
If you get in between someone I love and me
You're gonna feel the heat of my cavalry 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Please do Ode to sleep! It’s not lore related but it’s just so good!! Oh and Fairly local as well! Think you guys will really like that one
Love 21 pilots zo much
For even more amazing josh dun drumming you should check out the tøp x mutemath version of lane boy. It's fire and there is a drum "conversation" at the end of the song.
I CANNOT wait until y'all get into Clancy bc they made music vids for EVERY TRACK, but I also hope you'll check out some of their live shit, like "Trees" @ Fox Theater. Also, "Cut My Lip" is 1 of my fav songs ever
You guys would love Car Radio it's not part of the lore though. Great reaction BTW! ❤🔥
Great reaction thanks. I have to suggest "Car Radio", "Fairly Local", "Ode to Sleep" oh and "Chlorine". Sorry I got carried away. 😁

Josh IS one of the best drummers ever!
Josh Dun is one of THE BEST drummers out there! He is often compared to Travis Barker of Blink but I think he's in a lane all his own!!
Starpowerdrummer is an amazing drum and bass drummer.
Gotta do ‘Jumpsuit’ and ‘Levitate’
This whole album had a huge theme of repetitions and patterns.
Having me think this is a 21 Pilots exclusive reaction channel this week 😂
😆 we have an album reaction coming soon but have been notified that before we record it, we need to check out their lore first, so got a lot more coming!
Casey repping Holland colours while England are playing....IL let it slide...
Watch the live performance with him and Asope Rocky
Two words…….Car Radio!!!!!!!!
you have to go scaled and icy, first.. that album is so vibrant and "fun" cheerie etc.. but tied to tranch and clancy.. where clancy is their escape back to trench.. i LOVE how NOTHING They do is "just" putting out songs and videos.. and yes, Josh is amazing on the drums.. check it out when he gets carried onto the fans on a smaller set and plays during a show!
These are not tattoos, but paint
xxxtentacion - newsflock❤
U guys r still missing Fairly Local!! From this same album Blurryface. |-/
I would suggest to also cover fairly local and heavydirtysoul.
And even go back to vessel to see ode to sleep and car radio. That should make things easier to understand all of it.
Josh dun is the greatest drummer ever.
More TØP please!
Did it way before NF came around
Car radioooooi
I'd love to see a reaction on nightmares by juice wrld
Yea Tyler’s “not dancing” is probably one of my favorite things about him honestly 😅 like seriously tho…he’s simultaneously the worst and best dancer ever imo!

2-1 , 2-1 England England 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
aye
Lekker!
Came to say this. This song isn’t really lore related. And with the colors yeah they have meaning but you don’t need to overthink colors.
Your shirt says lekker, are you South African?
Haha no my wife is Dutch ✌️🍻
Can yall listen to sleepy hallow n sheff g - yes freestyle🔥🙏
Love the videos guys keep it up! Please can you react to Ed Sheeran - The A Team
It's really sad that your viewers don't watch these TOP videos. 7.5k views after a month?

Is this not an all time bar????
They think this thing is a highway
If it was our way, we'd have a tempo change every other time change
'Cause our minds change on what we think is good
I wasn't raised in the hood
But I know a thing or two about pain and darkness
If it wasn't for this music I don't know how I would have fought this
Regardless, all these songs I'm hearin' are so heartless
Don't trust a perfect person and don't trust a song that's flawless
Honest, there's a few songs on this record that feel common
I'm in constant confrontation with what I want and what is poppin'
In the industry, it seems to me that singles on the radio are currency
My creativity's only free when I'm playin' shows
Please car radio
STOP PAUSING IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERSE.. 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠
This song is so FIRE! But then again this is TOP we're talking about, so is that really a surprise? 😄
