Personally, I just LOVE Nate's sense of humor, so often overlooked in some of his songs/videos. He can be hilarious!!
Yes!! It’s awesome!
Yes! Like when he said, "I think hello in Spanish is bonjour" lol!
The funniest thing I've seen him do is in Clouds. when He tries to give a kid a high five and they don't, so he high fives himself lol
and that video is BONKERS
Too many people think if a serious artist tries to be "funny", then he's corny or weird, which is so weird to me!
@@Captain_Kirk116 where did he say that? I have to hear that lmao
I was the hand at the end! Shooting this video was such a crazy experience
The Hand Guy 👋🏻
@@maisie02 YESSS
“The Search” for a “Mansion” up in the “Clouds” was my “Perception”, now I spend “Moments” in a “Therapy Session”.
Just a clever phrase I came up with using his album titles 😊😊
Very nice!!!😊👍
Nice dude!
That's great
I've seen someone say that maybe the ending of Leave me Alone represented NF giving some of his burdens to God, which is something we saw being talked about more often in this record. So, maybe white clothing could represent "talking to God more" as he says in his song Change. For that reason, some people in white in Leave me Alone are burden-free, but some still carry some.
Well said, thanks!😊👍
wow i never thought of it that way, love this take
That’s good, but it seems more like he was seriously CONSIDERING giving them over, not actually giving them over…
FFs - no gods exist...
As someone with OCD especially mainly harm OCD this song is such a relief for me . This is absolutely my brain , so hectic .
NF is a God send .
same here, you are not alone :)
Nos when you hear HOPE, WOW
Nate leaves this song with another cliffhanger, just like "The search" left with wondering about the white clothes. I agree with your comments on the people going in with dark clothes and coming out in white clothes, yet still seemed like they had no emotions. Knowing Nate said on Instagram (and in some songs) that he refuses to take ANY PILLS because his mom died because of prescription pain pills that turned into an addiction. He said his Therapist told him he needs psych meds for his OCD, but he refuses to take them. Because of this issue, I think he was indicating the change of clothes indicated the people were given meds when they changed clothes colors, yet they were under the influence of meds, so NF did not go in the line to change clothes.
This is very interesting! Thank you so much for letting me know😊👍
I think you’ve got a point :)
This sounds like a very logical theory.
I hope everyone is having a great day
Yes please
Petition for Tom to do the entire search album
😁👍
I'll 2nd this ⬆️
Hey Tom! Following along the NF journey, you should check out "I Miss The Days" eventually. Its a pretty emotional song by Nate and I think it would make for a great review. Cheers!
THanks Gavin!😊👍
That's my favourite right now!
So much imagery in this music video it’s insane! The first time I saw this I thought that the lady in the white suit taking the smiles off from the rest represented medication. From my perspective those in white are walking around aimlessly almost like in a trance. In the song “Changes”NF describes how he was prescribed medications but that he is afraid taking them. It’s crazy man!
Amazing!!! This is good info!😊👍
Yes I definitely think those in White are medicated.
Agh!!! I bloody love this song.. NF is an absolute genius and such a talent.. I relate to his music more than any other artist out there.. Especially Paralyzed, My Stress, Mansion and I hate myself
I would suggest having the captions on or having the lyrics pulled up for when he raps faster and it's harder to catch all of the lyrics
'Hate myself' from NF is (what I think) so good/ emotional, for on the listt
That old man with the crate, He and the people were there buried with their burdens. That's why NF decide to give a try! Beacuse he don't wanna end like them.
Thanks for this take!😊👍
Hey Tom, here it goes some ideas for you:
Eminem - Leaving Heaven
NF - Therapy Session ✅
NF - The Search ✅
NF - Change
NF - Leave me Alone ✅
Eminem - Not Afraid
Eminem - Say Goodbye Hollywod
Joyner Lucas - Im Sorry
Joyner Lucas - Winter Blues
Joyner Lucas - I Love
Joyner Lucas - Ross Capacconi
I might put Ross Capacconi(sorry for that spelling) first for Joyner, but love the other suggestions
@@ericmiller9331 just heard the Ross capicchioni one, fire song, nice sugestion.
he's already done therapy session
I like it, I took a screenshot😊👍
Do Ross capacconi!
I understand the section with the old man this way: If you carry your burdens for too long, you'll get buried by them eventually. It's like those areas, usually in bigger cities, where homeless people and those, who got left behind by society come together, because they've got nowhere else to go. One is sleeping in a grocery cart, another is sleeping on a discarded mattress. I think Nate imagined his older self living there, just like the underlining message of "Let you Down.
"Leave Me Alone" is a very strong song, full of metaphors and a real treat for longtime NF fans. I've watched the video several times, but never paid attention to the second guy in black and with the cart in the beginning. Great eye, great ear and as always fantastic interpretation, Tom. This album is going to be a thrill!
Thanks so much Mike! A lot to digest and I learn more from your comments😊👍
I absolutely love the energy you bring to these videos, it's so engaging to be able to not just hear your interpretation but also see you jam out too. Personally I'd love to see you react to either Clouds or Hate Myself by NF. I think you'd definitely enjoy the beat of Clouds ^_^
Can’t wait for that!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficialI dunno if anyone has mentioned this to you but the name for that smile is a Chelsea grin it actually comes from the soccer hooligans they used to cut people in the corners of their mouth with a knife then stomp on their foot or do something else that would make the person scream and when they scream it would tear their cheeks all the way to the back of their jaw. That's what the joker had in The dark Knight when he said now I'm always smiling. So usually makeup like that is a shout out to something very dark and disturbing.
@@KiyanAmaruna very cool! Thanks for this😊
“Im exhausted”😂 awesome reaction! All the best to you and Nick!🙏❤️
My perception of the people in white is that they are on their own journey of change. It happens slowly and differently and never overnight so some still have burdens, some have their smile, and some aren’t smiling at all but they’re still on the journey of change
Well said!😊👍
Tom is the GOAT of Reactions
Thank you!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial any time cause u da GOAT 🐐
Smile is his fake face. You got it
next time click the CC button and it will show the lyrics most the time so you can see what he's saying in the fast rapping
8:57 My dude started vibing and then that scream of being overwhelmed! love it.
This is one of my favorite NF tracks!✌️😊
The shopping cart represents a mobile cage or prison cell that he takes with him wherever he goes
Hey Tom great reaction as always. Your NF reactions are unique in the fact that you offer clinical and mental health perspective on things. I’m a school psychologist and I really enjoy your perspective on things and your energy and breakdown of it is great.
This song is a lot to take in. NF goes into detail of his new diagnosis of OCD and I like how you talk about how it really does impact someone’s life and the struggles they face.
Thanks so much Jared!😊👍
I am SO jealous that you have seen NF twice!!! He's definitely on my list of must see concerts. 👍
I know but I didn’t appreciate it enough!😩
Can’t wait for more! Thanks!
That's the best part is you always have to tune in for the next part
Another fire reaction, good to see you Tom. Really glad about how much you enjoy It. A special thanks to Nick aswell.
Love from Brasil
Thanks so much! Appreciate the ❤️ 😊👍
This one is going to be interesting
Can‘t wait for Paid my Dues ! Besides Prideful (clouds the mixtape) and Clouds my absolute favs ! im here since day 1 much live from Germany 🖤
I always press the like button before I ever watch your reaction. I know I'm going to like them by now. You are such a cool dad. Your boys are lucky to have you. Just keep doing you man! 👍✌🎧❤#NFrealmusic
That is so nice of you to say! I am loving this experience with nick and everyone at Reaction therapy. Thank YOU for the amazing support 😊👍
Who is nick? Genuine question. Do you mean Nate, or is Nick someone who works with you on these?
NF - Hate Myself, would love to hear your take on it
I absolutely love how invested you get with these videos.. I get invested with you... no one does it better than Nate.
Amen! I agree, he is amazing😊👍
The fact the you Sr brake down the bars and the message that NF delivers made me a subscriber. Greetings from Tijuana Mexico.
Thank you sooooo much Carlos! Appreciate you joining the family! Love your comments😊👍
"Hi. I'm Tom Stevens and I'm in an abusive relationship with NF's music." LOL
This whole album (at least like the first 12 tracks or so) is like this. A couple are very much like the song mansion too.
Well said!!😊👍
I've just been noticing your videos because you've actually been covering all of songs that I found myself TH-cam ing I. Never ever even comment on anything and I dont even listen to NF but your amazing man keep doing this
I've been looking forward to your analysis of this one because I seem to have a slightly different perspective than others. I think the "broken amusement park" (broken joy) has all of the "broken people" (mentally ill) in it and they are all on the ride of getting better. I see it as different people at different places in their journey with their mental health and each place has a line of people, getting better in some way. That's why they aren't smiling, they are still broken but working on it. And NF is walking around, seeing people take off the facade or changing into better people (clothes) or successfully getting rid of burden balloons and he isn't and it's all so confusing. The song plays like my own anxiety and ruminating where it is absolutely everywhere and no where, which is why i think RUMINATING is the loudest word spoken in the song. So, all these people are getting somewhere and he is stuck, like the older guy in the dark part of the park. At the end he is trying to give away just a little of his issues and his hand is shaking. I want to believe this is a song fully encompassing our frustrating back and forth as individuals with broken brains that feel every one is getting better quickly, even though we/he has been on this journey so long and is still completely weighed down.
I just realized something that may mean something. At 15:52 when the people watching NF point at his burdens, and then NF says "I don't need advice from my thoughts right now..." he may have also been thinking that the people were focused on his burdens and judging him.
Just a thought. It sounded better in my head. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think the ending is him letting go the burdens of fam
Man....I love your reactions...THANK YOU!
Oooo I was hoping you had a reaction to this one!!!
🔥🔥 Intro Man, Good Video, Stay Safe Yall

Have you ever thought of maybe doing the Lyric videos, I know sometimes you have a hard time with the faster parts and I also know how much of a fan you are at the same time. The faster parts have TONS of crazy lines and stuff that you miss. The lyric videos might be a good option for these faster songs, ALOT more for you to analyze. Love the reactions Tom! Keep em comin! I can sense that Joyner Lucas- Frozen comin soon lol
Thanks so much for the feedback and for your support!😊👍
Fire as always gang! 🥃
…………………. “Dude.” 😒 Yes, that absolutely sums up the ending. Love being on this journey with you.
Thanks so much Matt!😊👍
Amazing I hope you doing well tom keep it up
THanks Preston!😊👍
Hey Tom, thank you so much for taking the time to analyze Leave Me Alone. It's such an amazing track. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Keep up the great work. I look forward to your future reviews. Have a great day.
THanks so much Rick!😊👍
I love that he said he called Fame and sent him this song. And the song is called “leave me alone.”
I am sooooooo excited for Thursday.. probably my favourite song is up next, ‘Change’.
Great reaction as always Tom!
For sure! Definitely a good one, but they’re all good to me😊👍
change is the next song! You will love that song, i cant wait to see your reaction!!
You should do oh lord! In my personal opinion it is totally part of the journey but isn’t talked about much and I think it is amazing!
I love how are you braking the song's down because I have really understand what the song is about and explains it all
I really like your reactions. I just love this kind of music. Greetings from Germany 😊
Hi Germany! Thank you for the ❤️
One of my favorite NF songs
NEW INTRO IS HEATTT
Thanks to nick😁👍
Let's get that Eminem - be careful what you wish for. 💪💪👍👍
Hearing this and seeing the video are two different experiences. This is SOOOO much better when you see the video and can put pieces of the puzzle together. There are some little gifts in this one for sure!!
Fame said the song sucks because the name is Leave Me Alone... I think anyway. GREAT reaction!!
I absolutely LOVE your reaction at the end!!!
Yes!!!!😊👍
Would like to see you react to more Joyner Lucas.
Thank you so much!!!!
much love tom... always
Thank you!😊👍
Watching this gave me clarity
Yup. I have OCD. You can't tell unless I tell you. I overthink everything! Lol
Love the new intro!
Thanks to nick!😁👍
Such a great song but I understand hiding plaques because I have things I don’t like hanging anything I just put in a box and out it up.
I love the ways how he transition to talking to himself in a way he describes when he gets in those moods and doubt so awesome
You should so do Shiro's Story! There is a few parts but very deep! Would be AMAZING viewing!
Loving the reactions! Please turn on captions so you can catch the lyrics! We'd love to hear your thoughts on em! Keep it up bud! NF Fire squad is here with ya!
after watching this video multiple times for me its the circus of life with peope all arround dealing with issues. no one without make up was smiling because he is afraid to be normal. To him, the fake smile is still beter than being normal. Thats why when it showed everyone in black going in and coming out in white notice how dark it was and you couldnt see where they were going to or from while he was "being pushed" to get better but then kept walking walking. he keeps going and then its him in his cart and he is looking at an old man. Maybe a refelction or glimps of a future, walks over and poked the sleeping person who doesnt move. anyone with mental issues knows how lonely and debilitating it can be, or even the impact it can have on others and the old man and girl could be people in his life. So he decides to go back and get help.
I know I'm really late, but i just found your channel and as a big fan of NF I'm now watching your reactions to the whole journey, but anyway here's my theory about these videos:
The black baloons of course are burdens there's no doubt in that, but then the fun with ideas for significance of things starts. For me this whole place is kind of like a mental hospital. The people wearing black are people who just start their whole search and journey to recovery. The smiles on their faces symbolises that 'mask' that we all wear, which shows that everything is fine. People in black are given the white clothes as a symbol of starting their therapeutic journey, they are given the possibility to take the chance, but the decision is up to them, that's why in some part of the video we see NF in a room with people in black, with their balloons and even their cartwheels - they are the people who chose not to start their therapy processes. We also have people who change the clothes from black to white, which means that they chose to do it, some of the people in white still have these 'smiles' on their faces, because letting the mask of happiness go is another part of the journey. We also have people who start to let go of their burdens, by giving away the balloons just as NF did at the end. So yeah for me it all just symbolises therapeutic journey. So I guess that's it, that's my theory...
This is a brilliant reaction at last someone that can't hold it in like me, I'm 54yrs and blast out rap and grime, dance all over my house....my girls just sit there going "what the hell" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love this guy!!!!
I like your reactions because you analyze what's being said instead of just bobbing along and exclaiming, repeating how fire a song is. With that being said, could you PLEASE give Aesop Rock a listen, specifically the trio of songs, "Get Out of the Car, Shrunk and Kirby"? They all go together and form a story (Cycles of Gehenna too) and you'll get to experience the best rapper and lyricist alive today!
Nice request! Thanks!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial I really hope you check him out. Those three songs deal with death, mental health and ways to cope - I think it'll be right up your alley!
So much Love that you listen to
I believe I heard in past comments from other fans of NF is the cart represents his “safe space” a place that holds on to his burdens and where he can take a break l. Also thinking it’s like his security cart or blanket in a sense for him in the videos.
Good afternoon Tom,
Nate is still Searching, pushing his mental shopping cart prison around with his burdens attached, closely dragging behind. The people in white likely represent his fans in various stages of mental health themselves. Some still hide behind their fake "Joker" smiles, pretending their lives are fine with the appearances they present to the world and social media. Others, have been inspired by Nate, and are going to get professional help and are beginning to come to terms with their own flaws and burdens (wiping off their smiles in line). Some have let go of most of their burdens, and some fans still carry around a few burdens, but not as much as Nate; which is his "Perception."
Furthermore, Nate references that "he'll drop a song out of nowhere and all the fans embrace it" (as all the seated fans are eagerly listening, waiting for new music and point, in unison, at his burdens). The following scene shows the symbiosis of Nate's fans helping him by literally being behind him and helping him into mental recovery (pushing him in his shopping cart) while simultaneously following him and being inspired to get help themselves. I think the tent with black clothes being exchanged for white represents people discovering NF and that they aren't alone. They don't have to wear black and be plagued by their burdens forever. Being a part of this community of NF fans that are real and raw is helping them and inspiring them to come into the light (white clothes symbolizing purity). They come out with no fake smiles, but don't necessarily smile for real still, because they are no longer faking that everything is ok. They have become "Real", embracing "Real Music" and "Real life" on the road to healing.
The older man sitting in the cart, is old NF that we have seen in a few other videos, assuming he never lets go of all his burdens and grows old with them. Fame is again, referenced. The phone rings at the beginning (Fame is calling) and it ends with the phone still ringing; fame calling again. TBD on if Nate gives away a few of his burdens to the man behind the veil wearing white. I take that as GOD.
This was intense! Thank you so much for the description! You know you’re NF and this helps me understand so much better. I can’t believe how much goes into his music and video production!😊👍
@@ReactionTherapyOfficial It truly is unfathomable how much he does. I'm going to try and make my comments much shorter from here on out. Sorry for the length!
love it :)
NF- STORY and CLOUDS
The whole search album was brilliant. Just amazing, all of it
I really don’t listen to music anymore, cuz’ they always make me think so much, then I get depressed
