  • Hang in there Syed, you're a brilliant and inspiring reactor.
  • Sorry to hear this. I don't blame you. Don't let the omission of the Beatles shut you down. I hope you will continue without them.
  • @kathybwell
    That's terrible Syed, you have such an enjoyable channel, it's one of my favorites! Sorry this is happening to you - youtube is playing dirty.
  • Your analyses, and your willingness to say "I don't really like this song," are refreshing. It sucks that YouTube is so stupid about copyright. Wish I could help you but I know nothing about it, but I want to let you know I really appreciate your content, and I would like to see you continue and thrive.

    Such a bummer! First off, Syed, I want to say I love watching your reactions! Great job! Second (and Rick Beato has talked about this at length on his channel) Blockers are cutting their own throats. These bands, who were producing music 40, 50, 60 or more years ago, are not relevant to young people today, and will be forgotten unless they are brought out and presented on platforms like this. I'm 62, so I remember a lot of this stuff from when it was on the radio, and I have a lot of the albums. But it's channels like yours that keep this stuff alive for new generations. There are so many new artists, putting out music independently these days... I if you don't want your great music to be forgotten, don't block! Anyway, this ends up all right... Love your channel!

    That’s a real shame, you’re my favorite reactor to some of the best contemporary music of the 20th century. Your intelligent comments - plus true interest in the musicians, lyrics, and the impact the song may have had at the time. I truly hope you work it out. Looking forward to your next video - good luck. 🍀👍🏼 ❤

    I’m sorry about this man. I hope that you’re able to figure out a way to navigate this because you make some of the best reaction and analysis videos.
  • Liz at The Charismatic Voice has also figured out a way to beat the stuff. I know there are ways but it's such a pain in the ass. Especially when you're only doing the property owners a favor. It's ridiculous.
  • Syed, I've been a loyal follower since 5,000, Do what you can to stay on. I personally like when you showcase older bands from the 70s and 60s and there are a ton of great artists that inspired the music of today besides the Beatles and the Stones. Hang tough, perhaps this situation is a blessing for you.
  • I'm one of those who found your channel and your reaction to "When the Levee Breaks" and remember thinking 'This guy gets it". Been a fan ever since. I've enjoyed the interaction with the other viewers knowing that, for the most part, they are younger. I believe we learn and grow when we can bridge the generation gap, sharing and respecting our different points of view. I've learned much from others here. I hope you can keep this going, as I've said before, you stand alone and at the top of the many who try this thing. I'll always remember you singing Rebecca Black LOL....jk
  • And yeah man, your Beatles album reactions are just fantastic, even though you don't like the early stuff in a way that I can possibly like it even though they were before my time as well, but yeah I anxiously await for when the next one will start because you're just starting to get into the really really amazing transformation era. It's just so freaking annoying that they don't realize what a favor you are doing for the property holders and instead they rape and pillage. It's just disgusting.

    Really enjoy your channel Syed, I found you falling into Led Zeppelin reactions a few weeks ago and stuck around for Pink Floyd and others…there are a lot of garbage react channels. Yours is one of the best. I hope this system changes, it astounds me that bands or record companies or whoever try to throttle channels keeping 40-50 year old music alive and engaging new young fans.
  • @danjones3869
    You're the man Syed. You do an awesome job. Your interpretations and analysis are quite exceptional. Even when I might disagree with certain points you make, I have respect for the intelligence, eloquence and quality of your work. Whether you want it or not my hope is in this tiny nook of the world we put all prejudices aside to enjoy life. You even got a 55-year-old classic rocker from Minnesota to go out of my comfort zone and look around to explore rap. It's still growing on me, but my respect for the genre has increased. I still can't do country though. Keep pushin on. I will remain a subscriber and wait to see what happens. Peace and love to all.
  • Your reactions are great. Your channel is really enjoyable. Find a way to keep going.
  • That would be a bummer. This has become my favorite reaction channel. Really enjoyed the Beggars Banquet album breakdown (in addition to lots of other tunes).
  • @reverts3031
    I will miss your videos. Watching your videos makes the music fun. You can get through this!
  • I just discovered you last night! You better not shut down! There is plenty of great music out there to discover and show to us beyond the 'big guys'.
  • @aaronfledge
    Really sorry to hear this Syed, for your sake and ours. If you hosted daily videos on your own website you could still receive donations via Patreon, PayPal etc, harder to grow that way but at least you'd have your independence!
  • So sorry you are having this problem with YouTube ! Your reactions are illuminating and intersecting especially as you go out of your favourite genre to discover the fabulous music of the past. Is this the future with AI calling the shots? Frightening world we are getting into! I hope you still have a future with your Channel. You will be greatly missed if you are forced to pack up. Good luck!
  • Yeah- I’m a 71 year old retired pastor- you know the open minded sort and reasonably educated- “God is love” - not an entirely unattractive possibility etc. I started glomming onto these reaction videos in retirement and Sy clearly, at least in judgment, you are among the best, most interesting, generous and thoughtful commentators in this format out there. I have regularly been astounded at your capacity to see your way into lyrical content that has eluded me for decades. I’m disheartened that your channel could go away. You will always have an appreciative friend here. Hang in and at the risk of seeming overly pious, God bless
