I must have watched this video at least 30 times in my life before I noticed that there is a COFFIN in the middle of the stage while they're performing. 😲
Today years old when I saw this!!! Found an explanation...Maybe??? - Fenom202 "We originally had a totally different song and different idea for the video that involved a casket," Barber explained. "But we decided we should keep the casket anyway, since the name of the album is The Love Below, which kind of ties in. The album is about a guy searching for love: his love of music, women, his mother, and we wanted to bring the casket in to play up the theme of this guy wondering, 'Is love dead? And can we revive it?' "
Fantastic song! I still watch this video and "Bombs Over Baghdad" periodically (both masterpieces). I saw Outkast (in Atlanta, no less) on Moby's Area One Tour back in their heyday. Still waiting for them to reunite and blow up Coachella!
I love this song and video. Incredible. At The same time Janelle Monnaie’s “ Tightrope” was a hit too. Andre 3000 was in that one, too! Two amazing songs! ❤
Love this video, it made me see there was actually still good things being made, and whenever I am down, this is one of my go to videos to bring me back up.
Such a joyous performance! I got the two song cd when my girls were little. We all danced and would shake it like a Polaroid picture! (Having fun in a white neighborhood while exploring various styles of music. Lots of modern country out here…not a fan) I truly enjoy the playfulness of this video! 😽💋🎶💕
3 Stacks creativity is next level. Visually and sonicly he's unmatched. Not to mention the confidence he must have had because he was blazing his own trail and stepping outside of the zone most of his contemporaries were in. I beat his flute album is pretty good. I like that he still goes to the laundromat to wash his clothes and spend time with "regular" people.
Some older and also great Hip-Hop bands +/- outside of the mainstream at the time: Naughty By Nature, A Tribe Called Quest, Jedi Mind Tricks/Army of the Pharaohs and Jurassic 5
Hey guys, you touched on the universal appeal of this song... in 2006 an independent, unsigned singer songwriter named Matt Weddle (of the band Obadiah Parker) performed a solo acoustic version of "Hey Ya" at an open mic. His friend uploaded the video to youtube and it went viral, even receiving international airplay. Currently it has 9.8M views. th-cam.com/video/c745E7T_Wvg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ksDBZA4EtkC2tVn4 Based on that cover, the song was also performed by cast member Sam Lloyd on a 2009 episode of the tv show Scrubs. That episode was watched by 5M viewers. th-cam.com/video/2Ix2ayCUH7I/w-d-xo.html Since then the song has been covered at least half a dozen times on various talent shows... American Idol, America's Got Talent, X Factor etc....including Avi Kaplan of Pentatonix.
I might like ATLiens over Aquemini. Or vice versa… Beyond that, I have all the OutKast albums and also the Tribe albums. Tied for most of any hip hop group…🖖🏼
Awesome song! I love how the music video is a tribute to the Beatles when they played live on the Ed Sullivan show. The stage, black and white footage with the names, and the girls going wild in the crowd.
Haven't seen this in awhile. Andre playing the singer part in this wears me out! 🤣 Edit: I would LOVE for you guys to go down the Outcast rabbit hole!!
Lyrically a very depressing song and it's cool that they decided to make music that almost forces you to dance. It's even in the lyrics which makes it even more sad when I think about it lol. "Yall don't hear me you just want to dance" while he is pouring out his heart. Such a creative song.
Only 8 rap albums have gone diamond. OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, Beastie Boys' License to Ill, Lauryn Hill's The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Tupac's All Eyez On Me, Eminem's The Marshall Mathers LP, Tupac's Greatest Hits, The Notorious B.I.G.'s Life After Death, Eminem's The Eminem Show, M.C. Hammer's Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em. Only 92 albums total.
It must have recently dropped from $21 down to $12.47 on Amazon. Normally, an unusually high price means it's been out of print, and only being produced in small numbers.
Thanks for checking us out. We don't lie about not hearing about doing "first time listens". We do a mix on our channel. We do songs we haven't heard, might be familiar with, or we have had an impact on us or music. We have a diverse subscribership. We got rockers who want to find a transition into listening to hip hop. We have hip hop heads who want to give music outside of hip hop a try. We give them some great options! It's a fun journey!
@@thisisitreactions Ok. Thanks for explaining it to me. I am 73 years old and I like everything, well not rock so much. I haven't heard you guys play any jazz or doo wop. Did I miss it? I will keep checking you guys out. Thanks.
These three wise older gentlemen speak nothing to the lyrics or meaning of the song? Are you kidding me..? This is an insanely upbeat but sad song. Lyrically. Yall got all them grays and wisdom in your beards, doing nothing for yah, huh? Fools. I suspect there three handsome dudes are married, but they can't find any meaning in this song? Smh.
This used to be my favorite reaction channel... but suddenly the songs god real soft and poppy. Get back to the rock stuff. There are still so many legit rock tracks to cover.

Record eventually went diamond and won the Grammy for record of the year.
Andre is a generational talent. Genius level. Unmatched
The energy from this song was something else! Forgot how good Andre was...
still is

Absolutely top 5 hip hop groups of all time. Put them up with wu-tang and Quest!
Andre & Big Boi are currently in the studio working on a new Outkast album.
I hope ur being serious. Would love it to hear one!
Fingers crossed!!! We need it!
Andre played everyone on stage..He recorded one of him sitting down because he was so tired♥️♥️♥️
I love this song and video. Incredible. At The same time Janelle Monnaie’s “ Tightrope” was a hit too. Andre 3000 was in that one, too! Two amazing songs! ❤
Tightrope is a great underrated video and song. That's when she used to wear tuxedoes
Love this video, it made me see there was actually still good things being made, and whenever I am down, this is one of my go to videos to bring me back up.
Andre is a beast

Always love me some Outkast!🤘❤🤟
I've always love this video, it just makes you feel good. I needed to see this tonight, thanks guys, love your reacts.❤❤
Our pleasure!
This new format love it ❤️ Andre 3000 playlist for me
Great party song!
Outcast- I Like The Way You Move- or Roses 🔥!
Good choices!
This always reminds me of an old song called Double Barrel.
❤ Outkast
My favorite Hip Hop group. Andea 3000 needs to get back out there, I miss him.
Genius!
Love this song!
Did Katt Williams receive any royalties for this video?
Don't go giving katt any idea's.😂

ATCQ....Man O Man! We can go on about those legends. Midnight Marauders is regarded as one of the best hip hop albums ever!
It was the best video out at that time!!! Shit it amazing!!!! ❤😅
Awesome song! I love how the music video is a tribute to the Beatles when they played live on the Ed Sullivan show. The stage, black and white footage with the names, and the girls going wild in the crowd.
I remember this. Propper catchy tune.
Early 2000s, wasn't it?
2003!
So entertaining.
Polaroids stock rose dramatically from this song 👍
My dad despises rap/hip hop and even he likes this song. It's an instant classic.
Top One!
Love love love love outkast
Haven't seen this in awhile. Andre playing the singer part in this wears me out! 🤣

I'm a hard core Rock fan, and I love this song. BTW, has Robert Griffin III (RG3) and Andre ever been seen in the same room?
Lol I can see it! HTTR!
I've checked on the price of the cd a few times, but it's so expensive I can't order it. That's one indicater of how popular it is still!😊
It must have recently dropped from $21 down to $12.47 on Amazon. Normally, an unusually high price means it's been out of print, and only being produced in small numbers.
@@bossfan49 wow! Last I'd checked it was $34.00!
Brilliant 🇨🇦
Nice reaction. Please react to Digable Planets - Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat) Thanks, guys. Great channel.
Great pull!!!
Andre explaining how Rage Against the Machine influenced him with Bombs Over Baghdad th-cam.com/users/shortsseCxNgwM5PQ
Funny how is old farts knew what shake it like a Polaroid picture meant .
Next up: Bombs Over Baghdad. Do it!! And then...try a new performer, Ren. You will NOT be disappointed.
College times.
Have you heard Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty ?
Yep! we reacted to it: th-cam.com/video/3eN6cjszjCo/w-d-xo.html
This was truly a bomb, but I like "Ms Jackson" a little bit more...
Just saying. ;-)
I am confused. I just recently started watching your channel, but why do you react to songs you already know?
