Hello and welcome back to my channel. My

name is Stacy and I'm so happy to see

you here today. If you are new to the

channel, first of all, welcome and

second of all, if you're wondering what

we are doing in my corner of the

internet, I am on a journey of listening

to songs, bands, and artists I've never

heard before. And today, you guys, we

are getting into a new band for me named

Genesis and we're listening to a song

called Firth of Fifth. Now, you guys

have been on me for a very, very long

time now to react to Genesis and I'm

sorry it has taken me so long, but we

are finally doing it today. Finally. I

know some of you guys have waited a long

time for this. So, I'm excited to see

what they're all about and I'm excited

to see what this song is all about,

especially because it is almost 10

minutes long. Holy cow. So, before you

begin the reaction, you guys, if you

like my content and want to join me on

my musical journey of discovery, please

be sure to like and share the video as

well as subscribe to the channel as it

really helps growing content creators

like me. So, without further ado, let's

get into the reaction. All right, you

guys, this is Genesis, Firth of Fifth.

Let's get started.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Wow.

>> [music]

>> Holy piano.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Wow.

>> I feel like I'm at a classical musical

concert. Classic music concert.

>> [music]

>> Never mind. [music]

>> [music]

>> Ooh,

I like that bass.

>> [music and singing]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Is this Phil Collins, right? He's in

this band?

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[singing]

[music]

[music]

>> I'm dying on songs

urged the sailors

on

>> [music]

>> till lured

by the sirens

cry.

>> Ooh, baby.

All right, I'm going to pause right

here. What a production. Holy cow. So,

this is my first impression of Genesis

and I can see why you guys have wanted

me to react to them for some time now.

We are 3 minutes into the song and I

already feel like I've been on a musical

journey already with this with this

music. I know that Phil Collins was in

this band

uh but I don't think that's him singing.

It doesn't sound like him. Maybe it's

Peter Gabriel. I remember Peter Peter

Gabriel is also in this band as well.

So, yeah. Uh

I don't know.

>> [laughter]

>> I'm not entirely sure. Again, this is my

first impression impression of Genesis.

I have reacted to both Phil Collins and

Peter Gabriel separately, individually

when they were doing, you know, their

own thing

uh as solo artists. So, hearing them

together and hearing this band as a

whole is a whole new experience. It's

it's a really crazy journey so far. That

piano at the beginning was so beautiful

and then they catch you off guard with a

bang of instrumentation, with a bang of

a guitar and drums and yeah, it's really

cool. It sounds like we are about to get

back into the piano which I really like.

The piano playing at the beginning was

superb. I feel like I was in this fancy

concert hall listening to a piano

concert with that uh whole beginning

piano part right there. It was really

neat. So, let's continue.

>> sirens [music] cry

>> Who is it playing piano?

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Such a journey.

Flute?

Wow.

>> [music]

>> This is a cool part.

I like that.

Ooh.

Mhm.

Yes.

Okay.

>> [music]

>> This piano is so good.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Holy crap.

>> [music]

>> Wow.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Holy crap.

Damn.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Ooh.

I like that transition.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Piercing solo.

>> [music]

>> Got an organ.

>> [music]

[music]

>> Ow.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Jeez. [music]

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

>> Explosion.

>> [music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

[music]

>> Guys, that bass is so good.

Amazing.

Wow, what a piercing and blazing guitar

solo that was. Holy crap.

>> [music]

>> How do we go from a piano, like we did

at the beginning, to that? Crazy.

>> [music]

>> Now as the reaper

>> [music]

>> dissolves

the sheep.

So yet you has [music] claimed another

soul.

>> [music]

>> Damn.

>> And so with gods and men, the sheep

remain [music]

inside their pen until the shepherd

leads his flock away.

>> [music]

>> The sands of time where we

roll

and ride

>> [music]

>> the

river

of constant

change.

>> Wow.

>> [music]

>> That was a journey.

Back to the piano.

Huh.

Full circle.

Wow, what a

What an experience

that was.

A musical roller coaster to say the

least.

>> [gasps and sighs]

>> Geez, I feel kind of spent after

listening to this song. I think because

there's just so much happening. This was

a musical roller coaster like I said

before.

Huh.

It was beautiful. It was masterful,

dramatic, and elegant, and so many

different things. At times I felt like I

was at a rock concert, at times I felt

like I was at a piano concert. It was

crazy. So many things about this song

that I really loved. Phil Collins behind

the drum kit, oh my god, just hearing

him kind of just go off and be

aggressive behind the drum kit was so

cool. And then that bass was quite

lovely. I enjoyed the bass throughout

this song. And then the piano, we kind

of have this song sandwiched between

piano. Just solo piano work, and I

really, really like that as well.

Whoever played the piano for this song

and

was incredible. I It didn't sound easy

at all. And then I also have to say I

really enjoyed that flute. I was not

expecting the flute to show up in this

song, but then again, there were so many

elements and instruments to this song

that I didn't expect to show up. It just

kept me on my toes. And then there's

that guitar solo. That blaring, blazing

guitar solo. Oh my gosh. That

That sent me to another dimension. There

were just so many parts of this song

that

just threw me for a loop that I truly

enjoyed.

Everyone is so talented in this group

and to be able to make a song that is

almost 10 minutes long and then make it

feel like it goes by so quickly, I think

is a talent in of itself. I feel like I

was just being transported again to

another dimension and just kind of let

the music take me wherever it wanted me

to go. And just let the music take me

for this ride that

I didn't want to get off of. It was

really really great to listen to this

song. And just even thinking about that

solo is giving me goosebumps. I'm not

going to lie. It was just Ooh, it just

it goes right through you. Oh my gosh,

it's so crazy. It It was a really really

great song, really great solo. Just so

again dramatic, so uh prominent, very

interesting to listen to and just Yeah,

I don't know. I don't even know how to

describe it. This was just a very

complex piece of music that you just

know that

not just anyone could create or and not

just anyone could play and give it

justice. I feel like a lot of musicians

and a lot of people who actually study

music, maybe music theorists and

composers and things like that, probably

have a field day with this song. Even me

who is not musically trained, I've never

played an instrument, don't sing,

nothing, I'm still just

able to grasp like the musicianship and

the talent within this song and the

difficulty within this song. I feel like

this is just so hard to play. But

regardless, it's so brilliant. It's so

raw. I just enjoyed it from beginning to

end and I'm finally glad I reacted to

>> [sighs]

>> Genesis. It's been a long time coming.

It really has. I just love how

intentional every note was, how

intentional every instrument was.

Um, it was creative yet so structured.

Again, there were just so many different

aspects that transported me to a

different place. Um, whether it was like

a rock concert, a classical music

concert. I just love how intentional

this song was between

all the instruments that were used to

make this song, all the transitions, all

the different feelings. Again, the

musical roller coaster that it gave. Uh,

gosh, it's hard to pick a favorite part

from this song. I don't know. I I don't

I think I'll have to listen to it a few

more times to be able to pick out a

favorite part. But you guys should

definitely tell me what your favorite

part was. Was it the flute? Was it the

piano? Was it, uh, the guitar solo? I

don't know.

I don't know. There is so much

happening. There's so much to this song.

It's crazy. So, yeah. Anyway, I could

probably go on and on and on about it.

But I feel satisfied after listening to

this song. I feel kind of spent after

listening to this song just because

there is so much happening here. But I

think I will definitely have to listen

to it again. This isn't a piece you just

listen to once and then you're done with

it. There's a lot of replayability with

this song and I feel like with each new

listen through you probably catch

something new.

And that's what makes it exciting. So, I

think that will do for today's reaction.
