Yeah, I saw that reaction too and I agree. So the Ivy was the ground were the bodies dropped and the ruby river was the blood and the silver moonlight was them dying in the night alone in the forest where they lay. It makes me cry too, Avi is a very talented song writer.
Avi wrote this song on a Camper tour with his friend across the country to calm down and find to himself. They make the shots for the Video on this tour.
It's about how he struggled with living in LA and touring constantly. He said when he could escape back to the mountains and the Sequoias he felt the weight fall of of him. He called it going to the Otherside. Yes, It's a deeply emotional piece and makes me cry too.
Honestly Avi's music is so incredibly moving. Even without listening to the lyrics it strikes such a strong emotional chord. Then his lyrics are also incredibly crafted and SOO meaningful. Together it's such a moving and emotional experience! I'm so so so glad he is creating his own music and vision ❤ This song and Change Is On The Rise both made me cry. You are not alone lol
Thank u so much sis! It is so wonderful to see another woman of color who has been forever changed by the amazing vocals if Mr. Avi Kaplin. I have been a fan since Sing Off and he continues to amaze me. Keep up the amazing work. Loves this reaction.
Thinking about your reaction for a while now, and I think the best explanation is that sometimes you experience something so beautiful that your soul responds with such emotion and the only thing the body has is tears. Not of sadness or even joy, but just profound emotion. So beautiful!
WOW!!! Thank you so much for sharing one of my comments!!! 😄😄😄 Avi always makes me cry, his voice has this deep touching impact that resonates inside of us and touches our souls really deeply!!! It can't even be explained, just felt!!! 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
This would be AMAZING for any kind of Meditation, right? Don't worry about crying. This is BEAUTIFUL ART and any real art is SUPPOSED to evoke an emotional response. Luv ya, Dee!
I use this song every day to meditate. It literally gives me a spiritual balance after listening to it. Or if I have down time I'll keep it playing to keep me level 🙏🏾
you hooked me with disturbed,sound of silence...drew me in further with ptx, hallelujah,held my attention with change on the rise...fk it,youre REALNESS AND GENUINE EMOTION just made me subscribe.dealing with inner demons will make you cry when an artist hits that spot in your soul.keep bein you belle!
Yes, Total Emo. It's nice to find someone who reacts to Avi as I do. Total Goosebumps, feeling ancient, tears. Avi is a very Old-Soul, multidimensional Healer, with his Voice as Instrument. True multidimensional vibrational healing connects our soul/Heart Chakra to All That Is, and Release (tears) is part of that, along with the powerful synergy of that Connection. Trance is inevitable, as you Allowed during the bridge of your Change Is On The Rise reaction. Avi knows exactly what he's doing, as Healer. Thank you so much for reflecting his powerful gift, and sharing your Emotional reaction, as it gives others 'permission' to more fully embrace, experience, and reflect this healing energy, as well.
A bit late but true hes so nice to all of us ❤ Like im such a bad fan I listen to his songs like twice and then move on to reactions. I dont do art, fan accounts or anything. Heck i dont even know all his lyrics! But he/his music always makes me smile when I had a bad day and I still feel like he would appreciate that ❤🥺
Wanna dance? Kiss From A Rose will make you move. I watched it 12 times so far. Mitch rocked me to sleep with .. Christmas Time Is Here mixed with Pure Imagination.😊
Music is prayer!!!..we are moved to our soul because it is our center of truth. Avi sings the truth. And it touches us. No pretense, no acting just presence to the inner voice. Cry me a river 😭.
It's a gutsy move in a pop chewing gum music world. Very genuine. Also very seventies feel about the whole thing. I like it. A lot. Wasn't moved to tears, but was moved nonetheless. Beautiful. Did you notice, Dee, the deep deep bass he sung throughout the choruses? Brilliant. And also; will you marry me? Oops did I say that out loud? You're just infectuous with your energy... Keep up the great work sweet girl
I do think he's hit his lane with folk. This one has hints of Cat Stevens (evoking your 70s notion). Was a wise choice for him to break from PTX and slow things down.
It's okay mama. It's one of those songs that speaks to your spirit. I love Avi and the direction of his music. By far my favorite song by him. Keep up the good work.
Miss ja Love. This hit me this morning, a needed revisit. The song and the remembrance of your react. ☮☮ & 💜💜 Hoping all is well and the world is kind. This set my Saturday perfectly and I'm grateful.
It took a pandemic for me to discover Avi Kaplan solo work. And then to discover TH-cam and TH-cam reactors. Then to discover you! You are by far the best reactor! I love how you and I have the same reaction to Avi and I'm old enough to be his grandmother! I have enough love for him and you. I was given a big heart for a reason. 💖
Just found your channel, Love your reaction. Avi has talked in Livestreams after leaving PTX, he has suffered from anxiety/depression for yrs, & his music now is therapy for releasing his pain. His lyrics are So honest & vulnerable, yet so spiritual. I just love his new album "Floating On A Dream" too. 😊
I didn't realize it the first time but he's singing bass also when he sings the last "Take me over to that other side" during the "silver moonlight" verse. Beautiful!
Still one of the most important reactions I've seen you do. There are some other songs I might like more, some that are more fun and some that have different surprises... but this reaction was Real and I love it. Keep coming back to the reaction... the song I can find elsewhere. The reaction belongs to you. Danke, again, again Love.
Didn't even need to see the thumbnail and I knew you would be crying because of this. I couldn't wait to see you're reaction. For even more feels you should react to his song Quarter Past Four (if you haven't seen it already.)
Can I just tell you how much I love you??? You always make me smile- I love your energy!! Im jealous of you getting to travel everywhere- you are very lucky. Keep DOing it! Love, from Texas.
Alright, so they are working on the Wheel of Time series now, and I would be so excited if they cast Avi (or his voice) as Loial. Deep bassy voice, tree singer.
Chang on the rise, drags out your pain and pulls out your feelings, then the otherside, just... Washes you clean. It just washes your soul clean of everything.
Everyone on Twitter saying “Tonya! You gotta see this!” NOW I know WHY! Thanks for including our twitter posts. You’re so fun to watch! Yes... Avi is worth the extra work for headphones... totally diff experience! & YES... goose bumps & ugly cry every time I see & listen... STILL.. even just Now... happy excited to “Where’s the paper towels dang it!” Lots of live performances of his new songs are out... some better sound quality than others. Let me know if you want links. THANK YOU! YOU ROCK!!!
Avi's solo songs are an eclectic mix of emotions in every song. You can feel both heartbreak and triumph in his lyrics. I feel a real kindred spirit with his music, and I have a feeling that Avi is gonna become an even bigger star as a solo artist than he already was with PTX.
Avi's songs are primal, mystical, enchanting, powerful, and spiritual all at the same time. The harmonies are strangely beautiful---- otherworldly in fact. And even though I understand that he has a Jewish background, I think that he might know Jesus. React to It Knows Me if you haven't already done that. Your reactions are really good.
Yes you are not alone on the crying while listening to this song. I pretty much reacted the same way you have been doing with his work. I really hope he puts out a whole album soon.
I love that Avi has this powerful bass ability but he puts it on the back burner here instead of using it as a crutch for his music. It's simply one of the tools in his pack to utilize in the creation of his music. He only uses it when it's called for. Great stuff!
True... But for some reason it calms me down rather than making me emotional... And I'M a girl... Idk is something wrong with me?? I still think it's beautiful
Loved this one! Here's my suggestion I just found this amazing girl acapella group. "Citizen Queen". I know you'll love "Never Enough" and "No More Tears"! ( shhhh I heard Scott from Ptx was a part of them somehow.) You're gonna love them!!!!
Fairly simple video sync occurs when you make a visual synchronizing cue that you can use when you start the second source of video. A low tech version of a fancy production clapboard. Instead,, when you start the music video by clicking the mouse to start playing it, make sure you visibly snap your fingers with the other hand as your visual cue. That way, when it comes time to merge the playback of the music video in with the camera video.. you have a way that you can know where you need to start the PIP (picture in picture) merge.
DEElightful reaction. This and 'Quarter Past Four' are brilliant. This is Avi Kaplan. Watch PTX dancing and singing pop songs in shiny costumes and it is apparent why he left. Keep the ear buds in and take HF's rendition of 'Auld Lang Syne' for a spin.
I'm still trying to figure out how he got Jim Croche, Cat Stevens, James Taylor, Bob Dylan, Simon, Garfunkle, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, both Reinhardt Brothers, all of The Eagles, all of The Oakridge Boys, at least half of everyone on the Oh Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack, and 2/3rds of a Southern Baptist Choir into one soul....
Is anybody else getting OlDSkOOl "The Walking Dead" soundtrack vibes from this song, too? Like I can totally see this playing during some random scene with a character like Morgan, especially when he's being all loner-like all walking through the "🧟♀️empty🧟♂️" Forest with his backpack🎒 on making traps for a night-camp and s*** like that LOL... And I are right here, people?!!! Like it could totally go hand-in-hand with Blackbird Song...hmmm...---maybe that's why Morgan sprang to mind.
I feel that his first song Change on the rise is a battle cry and this song is the aftermath of the battle.
Dan Orne Patrol Gaming said the same.
Hi
that would make aberdeen the follow on from the otherside where he is now in a place he can rest

Be not ashamed of tears. One cries in the presence of true beauty.

Honestly Avi's music is so incredibly moving. Even without listening to the lyrics it strikes such a strong emotional chord. Then his lyrics are also incredibly crafted and SOO meaningful. Together it's such a moving and emotional experience! I'm so so so glad he is creating his own music and vision ❤
This song and Change Is On The Rise both made me cry. You are not alone lol
Simple like this...singing like an angel...Just Avi 😍😊
I am a 72-year-old man, and I have listened to this numerous times and get weepy every time. His voice gets right to your innermost feelings.
Thank u so much sis! It is so wonderful to see another woman of color who has been forever changed by the amazing vocals if Mr. Avi Kaplin. I have been a fan since Sing Off and he continues to amaze me. Keep up the amazing work. Loves this reaction.

I just couldn't stop crying myself. It's so soulful. I wish they could show his face more, I miss seeing his green eyes.
His voice wraps you up in a warm blanket and you feel him in your soul. Are you going to his tour?
Diving in!
I wish I could ;C
Exactly my feeling. It's so soothing to the soul!✌❤
I cry 👏 every 👏 single 👏 time!! Absolutely loving his latest work. Its so beautiful, calming, and ignites inspiration in me. ❤❤
Hello u are beautiful
Only Avi. CAn get his soul to exit his mouth and hug us all! Wow
A bit late but true hes so nice to all of us ❤
Like im such a bad fan I listen to his songs like twice and then move on to reactions. I dont do art, fan accounts or anything. Heck i dont even know all his lyrics! But he/his music always makes me smile when I had a bad day and I still feel like he would appreciate that ❤🥺
Thank you for your beautiful reaction! We wait for it!!! This song is like meditation. Feeling like it's healing souls...
He is exquisite. Just saw him this past Sunday in concert. Magnificent...loved it!
My reaction was much like yours - just speachless awe. This song is a spiritual experience. Addition, you made me cry too 😁
Wanna dance? Kiss From A Rose will make you move. I watched it 12 times so far. Mitch rocked me to sleep with .. Christmas Time Is Here mixed with Pure Imagination.😊
It touches your very soul
Music is prayer!!!..we are moved to our soul because it is our center of truth. Avi sings the truth. And it touches us. No pretense, no acting just presence to the inner voice. Cry me a river 😭.
Avi’s tone is so pure. He is amazing. Great reaction, Dee.
Truth of My soul !! I cried , tears as we care here 😥😮💓💓💓
knew you would love this one. This song just pulls emotion outta me. Love this reaction love you. Live your best life!!! Beautiful
EXACTLY! ❤
That song doesn't care about walls and shields and armours, it goes straight to the heart.
Straight to the soul!
It's a gutsy move in a pop chewing gum music world. Very genuine.
Also very seventies feel about the whole thing. I like it. A lot. Wasn't moved to tears, but was moved nonetheless. Beautiful.
Did you notice, Dee, the deep deep bass he sung throughout the choruses? Brilliant.
And also; will you marry me?
Oops did I say that out loud?
You're just infectuous with your energy...
Keep up the great work sweet girl

It's an invitation to a home you never knew you missed.
Dee, thanks for making emotion fun. I didn't find you reacting to Aberdeen by Avi. You NEED to hear it! :)

I love how you and I have the same reaction to Avi and I'm old enough to be his grandmother! I have enough love for him and you. I was given a big heart for a reason. 💖
The first time I’ve watched your reaction, I cried with you. Avi’s a beautiful soul
It cleans your soul. It just... Just takes all the bad things out. It made me bawl.
Great reaction. It is so very ethereal and peaceful. Much needed in our fast moving world. Love this song and your reaction. Stay with this...
Yes, I cried. It was like a body and soul Spiritual Meditation, one that touches your heart and soul like no other. Thank you, Dee.
Beautiful Song
Beautiful Reaction
Thank You Avi!!
Beautiful response, why I love to watch your reactions.
I also shed a tear listening to this amazing song and voice 💗
Tears are what happen when we have more emotions than our bodies can hold, nothing to be ashamed of....
Just found your channel, Love your reaction. Avi has talked in Livestreams after leaving PTX, he has suffered from anxiety/depression for yrs, & his music now is therapy for releasing his pain. His lyrics are So honest & vulnerable, yet so spiritual. I just love his new album "Floating On A Dream" too. 😊
Music is so evocative it weaves into your emotions. Tears streaming down my face too! I think you are FABULOUS!
You can hear his deep bass in the OOOs in the chorus. Great video as always!😊
I didn't realize it the first time but he's singing bass also when he sings the last "Take me over to that other side" during the "silver moonlight" verse. Beautiful!
@@julyriver8851 absolutely beautiful

Avi... the only singer thank can make me cry of happiness every time I listen to him sing
I love watching your face, as you watch him. By far, the best reaction, to this song, that I've seen.
Can I just tell you how much I love you??? You always make me smile- I love your energy!! Im jealous of you getting to travel everywhere- you are very lucky. Keep DOing it! Love, from Texas.

Chang on the rise, drags out your pain and pulls out your feelings, then the otherside, just... Washes you clean. It just washes your soul clean of everything.
Yes! The spirit is strong in his voice! This song strongly invokes the soul!
Been waiting for you to hear this. Amazing.
I'm a grown man not easily moved to tears and I cried the first time I ever heard this song. Couldn't help it.
Everyone on Twitter saying “Tonya! You gotta see this!” NOW I know WHY! Thanks for including our twitter posts. You’re so fun to watch!
Yes... Avi is worth the extra work for headphones... totally diff experience!

Avi's songs are primal, mystical, enchanting, powerful, and spiritual all at the same time. The harmonies are strangely beautiful---- otherworldly in fact. And even though I understand that he has a Jewish background, I think that he might know Jesus. React to It Knows Me if you haven't already done that. Your reactions are really good.
Avi's voice is Religion!
Yes you are not alone on the crying while listening to this song. I pretty much reacted the same way you have been doing with his work. I really hope he puts out a whole album soon.
Avi singing this song makes me feel like we're getting a glimpse of what it will be like in Heaven. It can definitely touch your soul.
This one makes me cry every time too
I love that Avi has this powerful bass ability but he puts it on the back burner here instead of using it as a crutch for his music. It's simply one of the tools in his pack to utilize in the creation of his music. He only uses it when it's called for. Great stuff!
No words. Both Chang on the Rise and this one could be part of a movie soundtrack .
Heh... "Chang on the Rise"... sounds like a fun parody, lol.
@@Doc903 More like a terrible typo. Now I can't even change it! 😁 😂
Oh, and yeah, the new verb "to AVI" and its meaning, I agree😂
This happened with me with listening Fields & Pier the first time. And I never heard about him before that random click :)
Sonically perfect!
Girl, I feel you. His voice does something to my insides.
New to your channel absolutely love you - music is the cure for this world . Keep the videos coming .
Ahhhhh. So soothing. So beautiful. So Avi.
Change on the Rise has a primal feel, while Otherside is more meditative - both gorgeous
I cried along with you and OMG Tonya!!!
PTX JUNKIE GIRLfriend! IKR!!!!!! 🤯 Every. Single. Time. “I don’t know WHY I’m crying!?!”
@@pentatonya1778 I dont know how I'm going to not be openly weeping during my show in Seattle.
PTX JUNKIE Bring Tissues... You’ve been warned... if not This song... there are others! You WILL Cry!
@@pentatonya1778 If i did watching sitcom video, I'm going to have to wear waterproof everything. I'm going to bring a tissues for sure.
Is it weird that I cry as well being a man. I can feel his emotion and passion in his voice. He is pretty much hypnotizing with his voice.
True... But for some reason it calms me down rather than making me emotional... And I'M a girl... Idk is something wrong with me?? I still think it's beautiful
Dee, it's a very spiritually touching song. Yeah, I cried, too, and didn't realize till it was over. Loved it, though.
Music makes me cry almost daily. Its candy for our soul.
I just want to go into the middle of a place like this and just put headphones on and listen to this song for hours
crying to something this beautiful is the only appropriate reaction,I'm with you on that.
True... But for some reason it calms me down rather than making me emotional... Idk is something wrong with me?? I still think it's beautiful
❤️❤️❤️ you, Dee.
When I first listened to this song it was emotional to me
you look incredible with your hair up...Avi is unbelievable
Agree with both statements!😍
I really enjoyed your reaction to this. Amazing!
you cried because his vibration is what we have been needing. I cried too.
Avi's forest bath has released a force of nature.
Loved this one! Here's my suggestion I just found this amazing girl acapella group. "Citizen Queen". I know you'll love "Never Enough" and "No More Tears"! ( shhhh I heard Scott from Ptx was a part of them somehow.) You're gonna love them!!!!

Crying not of sadness, but because this rises such a good feeling, transcending to the other side!
Girl, I cry every time I hear it... even now.
Yup. Same. This song hits deep.
DEElightful reaction. This and 'Quarter Past Four' are brilliant. This is Avi Kaplan. Watch PTX dancing and singing pop songs in shiny costumes and it is apparent why he left. Keep the ear buds in and take HF's rendition of 'Auld Lang Syne' for a spin.
Yep def. he sings with so much passion
I'm still trying to figure out how he got Jim Croche, Cat Stevens, James Taylor, Bob Dylan, Simon, Garfunkle, Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, Johnny Cash, Kris Kristofferson, both Reinhardt Brothers, all of The Eagles, all of The Oakridge Boys, at least half of everyone on the Oh Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack, and 2/3rds of a Southern Baptist Choir into one soul....
Avi’s soul just POURS out in this video...
Is anybody else getting OlDSkOOl "The Walking Dead" soundtrack vibes from this song, too?

that was amazing.....
