Encanto's Lin-Manuel Miranda and Sebastián Yatra on Oscar nomination, importance of representation

[@sarangiljimolla377]

3:57 “Thank you for this miracle, my friend” so touching seeing Sebastian say that to Lin

[@lupsy54]

I loved that as well! 💗

[@almacenycristaleriaramirez5076]

Love him

[@zaleimyatnaz4059]

Si ajá

[@gladysmartinez522]

Sebastian is So cute and talented

[@gladysmartinez522]

His voice 🥰is amazing beautiful

[@staceyknoell6339]

Even as a non-Spanish speaker I could tell the song was incredible. Then one day my children (who are obsessed with this soundtrack) played the English version and I had to stop what I was doing to sit and cry, it is that touching. The deep meaning may have been lost on my 11-year-old, but this song definitely touched my heart.

[@kimyoonmisurnamefirst7061]

The direct translation to English of the Spanish song is even more touching than the English-made version.

[@veronicavillamizar7181]

this song is too special for us Colombians because its background talks about the displacement of people because of armed groups, how they had to leave their land and wait for "a miracle"... it always makes me cry, it's very emotional. ❤🕯🐛🦋🇨🇴🥺

[@luzdelgado4840]

@StaceyKnoell The exact same thing happened to me...music is a beautiful gift!

[@daniromero5135]

There’s literally not a day I don’t listen to Dos oruguitas, as a latina it makes me so so happy sebastian is getting the recognition he deserves, and so proud people are responding to his special touch on Spanish music😍🙌🏼 really hope they win the oscar

[@EricFranco32]

So agree!!!

[@ambercontreras1110]

It’s so deep and heartfelt. And such a beautiful usage of what we know to be a special and sacred language. I listen to omit omit often and cry every single time. I hope they give them their flowers!!! 🌸

[@taylortiwari7118]

It breaks my heart in the best way possible. Like my heart can’t even handle my joy seeing this happen.

[@jx5828]

as a white boy who only speaks english, I feel the same way. This song melts my corazón.

[@mariagd8548]

I did not know who Sebastian Yatra was, ( yes, I live under a rock) but when I saw the movie and heard the song "Dos Oruguitas" I just couldn't stop crying, this kid has no idea what his voice makes others feel. It was beautiful and emotional at the same time. THANK YOU LIN, THANK YOU YATRA for such amazing miracle!

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

I highly recommend checking out more of his own music. I have a playlist of some of my favourite songs by Sebastián on my channel to help get you started. 💕

[@gladysmartinez522]

@@LatinMusicFansUK thanks

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

@@gladysmartinez522 you're welcome! I recommend checking out Romeo Santos too. 💕

[@zohilvilla]

The best song in the movie is "Dos Oruguitas" but I do understand that "we don't talk about Bruno" is catching cause is also a good song.

[@TYGVlogger]

We Don’t Talk About Bruno in the point of view of catchiness is the best, but musically and lyrically Dos Oruguitas is the best. That song is kinda underrated

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

@@TYGVlogger you both absolutely get it! Dos Oruguitas is beautiful and I understand why Lin-Manuel picked it to be the song put up for that category.

[@mariee.5912]

I think We don't talk about Bruno is easier to sing. You just need one line to sing it. And the rhythm is more catching

[@AllTheArtsy]

WDTAB is the technically more impressive song and is absolutely catchy. But Dos Oruguitas is more beautiful, more meaningful and is central to the story.

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

My favorite is *Surface Pressure* that Luisa sings. That song felt like Lin-Manuel Miranda stole my diary and set it to music. I even have a Luisa doll next to me while I work.

[@GiGi-fy6rg]

Proud of my Colombian heritage and proud of Lin-Manuel and Sebastian!!! Dos Oruguitas is a beautiful and moving song! Que viva Colombia y su cultura!! 💖

[@Fofasinghhdk]

Have you ever heard of Juanse Laverde???? He’s my favorite singer and he’s from Colombia 🇨🇴

[@candihennessy7779]

The truth is the song doesn't hit the same in English. It's absolutely beautiful in English but you almost NEED to hear it in Spanish to get the full effect

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

Yo acuerdo. 🥰🤗🎵🦋

[@missladyhaha]

I know...I remember listening to the album and the english version came on and I was like, "hmmmmmm not feeling it"

[@justalizardd]

I don’t even speak Spanish but even before I looked up the translation, I knew it was just better in Spanish. I cried so so much even without knowing what it meant. Then once I got the translation, that was it. More and more and more tearsssss

[@elbruces]

I don't even know why they made an English version in the first place.

[@mariee.5912]

Sebastián and Lin together is a miracle that we needed.

[@expectationspetroleum4026]

Lin outdid himself and Sebastián did justice to this incredible song. Thankful that this song exists.💖

[@911awakening]

Lin Manuel is a national treasure. We have to protect him. Such a fine representation of Latinos. So gifted!

[@aureliontroll2341]

Is it a national ? No it is a world treasure

[@germansalazar5480]

Sebastián Yatra was the best singer that Disney could choose 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

I love how the male interviewer said that at 4 and 7 Lin's kids were just the right age for Encanto. Uh, hello? I'm 37 and I love it like any kid! 😂 I thought we all knew by now that animation is for all ages. 🙏🏻

[@Jai_jaila]

I'm 28 years old and I watched this movie more times than my 5 year old daughter. 😂

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

@@Jai_jaila exactly! 😂 I know people in their sixties who love it. It's for everyone 💕

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

I'm 52 and had already watched it 8 times before my granddaughter came over to watch it with me. And now I've watched it probably more than 20 times. It is just a beautiful movie and because it highlights some of our culture, it means even more.

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

@@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460 that's so lovely to hear! 💕

[@myskanamrazu9412]

I'm almost 37 too and I probably love Encanto more than my kids! :) I've been trying to get my mum to watch it cause abuela reminds me so much of my grandma (her mum) and it's just so relatable, but apparently she's "too old for these kinds of movies". ("Hm," squeaks in Dolores)

[@day6enjoyer357]

In the beginning when they were playing Dos Oruguitas Lin was loking at Sebastian in awe, he's proud of him :')

[@milagallardo5068]

Beautiful song , the lyrics and melody are so beautiful , . We listen the English version and doesn’t compare with the Spanish version, definitely in Spanish sounds so melodic and beautiful with a beautiful feeling

[@8LAUDY]

I love how is a full circle for Sebastian, I remember his first interviews how he was inspired by Disney musicals specially high school musical wich he perform at his school doing Zack Efron character, congrats Sebastian, thank you Lin for your love letter to Colombia with this movie. I love to use the movie to teach my kids growing in us our culture, symbols, music, people. Thanks 🙏

[@kathyrodrigueztorres6064]

Sebastian que bien se expresa!!! Tan natural!! Te felicitamos! Espectacular

[@TanitaSR]

I love how they make an effort to pronounce Sebastian and Dos Oruguitas. 👏🏻👏🏻

[@adarodriguez9081]

Quiero verte cantar en los Oscar, te lo mereces gran ser humano Sebitas

[@JUNATAR2010]

Si super que bueno que ya esta confirmado que cantará en los Oscar...

Lo hizo fenomenal. Amé la presentación.

[@rfresa]

I imagine Sebastian's voice as the voice of Pedro, who we never hear speak in the movie!

[@ANA-il6js85]

Beautiful song, beautiful movie, beautiful country, the whole soundtrack deserves an oscar, i hope the academy will award them, and im hoping to see Sebastian singing it live ❤️. Very handsome man 👍

[@juliet3081]

So proud of this film as colombian is amazing to see how far we have taken our culture 🇨🇴❤

Literally cry every time. It’s so beautiful.

I really hope they win, I love this song!

[@Azractor86]

I'm from Borneo & I love Spanish, the first time I listened to this in that scene, I was deeply touched, knowing a few words and know the meaning & matched to the scene I just almost burst to tears.

[@ralphylove6359]

💛💙❤️

[@sinnomg1794]

sebastian yatra is the best and not because he is a good musician he is the best for his sense of humanity, honesty and humble

[@_williams.bowlcut.slays_7709]

Can we just appriciate for a moment how Lin doesnt put his kids on the internet? Like he IS really caring about them and being like "They'll be on internet if they want to" and letting them decide when they'll be bigger. Its such a great thing!❤

[@Jai_jaila]

I'm Brazilian, but I fell in love with this movie. 💓

[@Linis01FG]

Yo amo, que Dos Oruguitas este en español en todo el mundo. 🇨🇴💙💛❤️

[@Willow_Sage_]

Siiii yo tambien.

[@raymuniz113]

Lin Manuel is considered by most a genius and for good reason.

[@Mrraugut]

True true. Wish he had put a bigger fight against production so they wouldn't butcher the ITH movie, though.

[@jackiebilton8070]

Was so lovely listening to Sebastian talking in English, so perfect, congratulations, I can't Walt to see you on Sunday night at the Oscar's. 🙏😇🤗😊💖

[@clionaduffy5536]

I’m Irish just started learning Spanish so I had to see what it was about and it’s so beautiful, Sebastian has such a beautiful voice and it’s actually mu favourite song from the movie , and this song has really drives me to want to get better at Spanish and I actually-refer the original Spanish version as I think it had more emotion and beauty to it I absolutely love this song and listen to it nearly everyday

[@pepetovar5012]

You can listen to Katie james respirar

[@aying25]

The way the hosts say “Sebastihuun” lmao interesting effort

[@jaimepe4765]

It's like zero effort to search the pronunciation before the interview. One would think that should be a priority.

[@emilianosazo7750]

I love to see my idols working together 🥺❤❤❤

[@alejandrasambennet3446]

Me too

[@jasonwilke3810]

Yes

[@dancingqueen0728]

Loved it! Love the song, and it is much more nuanced and better in Spanish, though the English version is still good

[@priscilagomez4706]

Congratulations Sebastian and Lin Miranda!

[@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460]

What a blessing this was!!!!! And for those who didn't know, or who haven't had a chance to do so yet, Lin-Manuel Miranda also was the voice actor AND music creator for the animated movie *"VIVO"* with Gloria Estefan. I love it so much!!! And it is set in Cuba and then Key West and Miami. Do I even have to mention how great the music is?!!! It is on Netflix so please watch it. I love all of his work and am headed right now to buy Sebastian Yatra's album.

[@aldrinooow]

Lin: *says Sebastian’s name in a Latino accent* The rest of the room: *hears it in French (?) accent* 🤷‍♂️ 🙃

[@kathleencerda3326]

Hahahahaahaha that was funny!!!

[@inolvidable.]

*Colombia is called the Country of 1000 Rhythms, because it has 1,025.* Very rich musical culture. *Colombia is the Most Bio-diverse Country in the World by Km², and 2nd. by extension, after Brazil.*

[@Willow_Sage_]

People never think of guyana which has african, portugese, chinese and indian heritage. It is sitiated right next to Venezuela and right on top of brazil... The soca and folk music there has so many sub genres and is sung in manderin, broken english, hindi , spanish, swahili, portugese, and sometimes a mixture. The food is a mash up, the cultures blend into one, and there is so much beauty all around. G U Y A N A. The part of south america people don´t notice. Thank you for your time hehe :)

[@pepetovar5012]

I don't think is that many rythems

[@milagallardo5068]

I hope Sebastian Yatra signs this song in Spanish at the Oscars ♥️

[@josscasa]

I love that dos oruguitas is getting dominated! I feel like it didn't get enough attention and honestly this recognition is making me soooo happy!

[@gioryu]

Wow Sebastian speak a good English, I didn't know. I like when people of my country go to US doing good things. Congrats

[@LatinMusicFansUK]

He nov to the USA when he was 5 so he learnt English from a young age. 💕

[@valeriagonzalez8690]

So Happy to watch this interview 🇨🇴👏🏻

Sebastián Yatra has one of those “good guy” faces that we could easily fall in love with on a movie or tv show. If he ever pursued acting, he’d be breaking hearts everywhere! 💔😩😭😍

I Like that she tries to be respectful about pronunciation... She tried, some people can´t be bothered.

[@AnAspiringPolyglot]

Ended up with a French accent somehow though 😂😂🇫🇷

Lovely interview ♥️ I adore both Yatra and Lin-Manuel, they’re amazingly talented young men from Latin America 🥳🥰

[@marianajmj]

Loved the movie and the music. Did origuitas is lovely.

[@antoniolucarelli7297]

Sebastian is becoming a global star

[@andyariza8108]

I’m Colombian, and when I listen to the song for the first time I couldn’t not cry.. because it reflect so many things, for example the violence that have been in here since many years and people displaced by this.. reflects a harsh reality that has unfortunately been present, of people alone without police or anyone to ask for help, and have to manage by themselves to raise their family away from their lands, their belongs and everything they know because of violence, for this and more it really touched my heart it's just beautiful Btw the river that appears in the movie looks similar to a river in here call “caño cristales” it is considered as the most beautiful river in the world, also the palm trees that appear, in here are an icon and are the larger palm trees in the world pd, we love Sebastian Yatra < 3

[@cataa6077]

Omg, not only is the song beautiful, but look at these two beautiful people sharing their beautiful feelings and ideas. I'm so touched ❤
