[@itsjustbreezy]

It's like I am watching Rapunzel and Cinderella

[@rypharris]

It really is.

[@kennedikelser354]

+itsjustbreezy who's Cinderella and who's Rapunzel

[@chiaraa9880]

+Kennedi Kelser Celinde=Cinderella, Carrie=Rapunzel

[@kennedikelser354]

Chiara Andrighetto I agree

[@Carrie]

+Chiara Andrighetto I would have said I'm more Cinderella seeing as Celinde's hair is WAAAAYYYY longer and straighter than mine! Haha! Saying that I'm probably more Merida! xxx

[@LivingSoloful]

Anna Kendrick said it right, "if I touch my phone in the right places pizza will appear at my door."

[@BelleSinclair]

Friends: they're people we just meet and decide we want to keep talking to and have in our lives, if you take a step back that is the weirdest thing

[@katielouise2638]

+Thefeminist Hobbit wow

[@katemcgowan5890]

love your name

[@BelleSinclair]

+Kate Mc Gowan thank you :)

[@bryonym1996]

oh my god Celinde singing "wishing you were somehow here again" gave me chills, i LOVE the phantom of the opera and that was just magical

[@gracieliz95]

I'd say choice in general is something we don't appreciate enough. I have the ability to choose almost everything in my life and I completely take it for granted.

[@gracieliz95]

Also, indoor plumbing.

[@jazzyrobot]

Oh my goodness. That one line from Celinde at the end there has completely given me the desire to see Phantom!

[@ruthchesterton9077]

Do it! I saw her last week and she is absolutely incredible as Christine! Xx

[@jazzyrobot]

+Ruth Chesterton I'm quite envious right now! My only issue with London is the 2/3 hour train journey which costs so much! Christmas is coming though...

[@ruthchesterton9077]

Wow that's a long way! Luckily, I'm only an hour away on the train but it still costs a fortune so I dread to think what it costs you! I've seen phantom a couple of times over the years but Celinde is my favourite😍i would love to be able to sing like her...

[@sytskevalk8905]

+Ruth Chesterton Put it in perspective, I have to cross a sea to go to London ;) (I'm from The Netherlands) I'm saving though to go see Phantom & Les Mis :D I hope you'll be able to see Phantom :)

[@IndiaHeathIRL]

+jazzyrobot I know! I was unhealthy obsessed with it for a few months, it was all I would listen to. Also makes me wish I could sing, such an amazing skill to have. I actually saw Phantom literally a month before Celinde joined the cast, can you imagine if I'd seen her instead?! Would be going crazy right now!

[@MaiaMatiIda]

I love Celinde so much, she's so talented and such a nice person. Loved her in Les Mis and she's amazing as Christine too. You too are great Carrie, keep those videos coming! xx

[@eliselucia2361]

People take role models like you guys for granted. People (me included) sometimes forget how much Carrie and celinde influence our lives for the better. Take a tiny example of how I started watching your videos and now tangled is my favourite Disney movie! Or how you have taught me to truly be me and embrace who that i I have flaws and there is no problem with that! They make me who I am! Without you I would not be as happy as I am right now 😊😊 thank you xxxx

[@farahch7466]

I definitely took plastic bags for granted.. I think we all did :')

[@xiahkixiri]

haha, nice

[@xAbbieCx13]

+Farah Ch YES!!

[@katiemaymash]

yeah. We did :(

[@redaurelia6252]

+Farah Ch I hate plastic bags. I don't understand why people can't just have a few bags at home and use them when they go shopping. What we also use for granted...clean environment, water, clean air, species that will eventually die because we use so much plastic. Just don't use it...it's so easy not to.

[@beckiejbrown]

I got excited just seeing the cape!

[@beckiejbrown]

+Beckie0 Hang on - did you shoot the opening after dying and waiting for the epilogue!?

[@gracemarsh1353]

People take sight for granted, take it from a blindie :) xxx

[@bethanysteele360]

HOW DID YOU TYPE THIS?!?! :O))))

[@gracemarsh1353]

+Bethany Steele there's this thing called VoiceOver that reads everything on my screen. Google for more info :)

[@allys8323]

Wow I'm trying to imagine what life would be like without sight, I can't imagine what not knowing what colors looked like, and not seeing people faces. This may be too personal to tell a random person on the Internet but have you always been blind?

[@medhitaylor3996]

+Grace Marsh so does that mean that VoiceOver describe the movements of Carrie and Celinde?

[@gracemarsh1353]

+Medhi Taylor unfortunately not.

[@RobertHeslop]

Things people take for granted: the air we breathe, the fact most of us sleep in a bed, your education, your dreams and wishes, that extra-curricular thing your parents wanted you to do as a child, the hard work of people in the NHS, police and fire services, time, money, our connections with friends, family, knowing the difference between right and wrong, not listening to people who give advice, never feeling like we're good at something and comparing our abilities, food, clean water, clothes, memories.

[@fionahope1216]

I love it when you and Celinde are together! You're both so happy together and that makes me happy 😊

[@Chouetterargentee]

Sometimes I realize that I take you for granted, Carrie.

[@elizahamilton8750]

Me too thank you for saying this! For all of us

[@thislifeinireland]

I had no idea Celinde was now playing Christine in TFOTO, but the moment you said it I was like OMG YES, THAT'S JUST SO RIGHT! She suits the role so much!

[@doddleoddle]

CAPTURING TIME

[@Carrie]

+doddleoddle IT IS! I SWEAR! xxxx

[@louisemay3824]

Dodie and Carrie ☺️💜

[@idkimbeth]

Her majesty's is such a beautiful theatre, I performed there twice and when you stand on the side of the stage you look up and you can see all the phantom props. I really want to go back and watch phantom, because the theatre is so beautiful and phantom is wonderful

[@PassableClown]

I saw Celinde early last month as Christine, she was absolutely incredible! Such a beautiful lady and a wonderful voice!

[@lucysutherland1470]

When I get a blocked nose I sit and think about the times when I didn't have a blocked nose and how I took it for granted

[@ladielydkyd1281]

Sometimes I think I may take my friends for granted cuz they've been helping me through my depression and they could choose not to be my friends. But they choose to be my friends. I love them.

[@nalabees]

2020 edition: our health. our lives. having the proper supplies/equipment/staffing at work (nyc hospital) seeing loved ones cleaning products, toilet paper, SOAP!, fresh vegetables, certain vitamins/otc meds, etc etc.... frequently using hand sanitizer like it comes out of the faucet traveling freely knowing if you needed to be hospitalized they would be equipped to take care of you I can go on.... but the moral of the story is we take SO much for granted everyday & it all can be taken away at an instant. be grateful for everyday you're alive and whatever you have, however limited it may be.

[@notlikewater]

Oh my god, Celinde just casually singing Phantom when Carrie put on the cloak broke me that was so beautiful, I am speechless.

[@rosiestephens9961]

Celinde is insannnnnelyy pretty😱😱

[@Carrie]

+layla day She's a mermaid. xxx

[@katiebates1287]

+ItsWayPastMyBedTime She's an amazing Fontine for sure x

[@courtneyjones6066]

i've preformed in her majesty's theatre and had a tour of queens around Christmas time and saw the moving stage,both beautiful places Xx

[@LunaLoveheart]

Ahh Celinde's voice though! It's like hearing an angel! I went to see the phantom of the opera in January of this year and I'm sad I never got to see Celinde in it :( but I'm going to see Les Mis this month 😃

[@MorganleFayable]

She is an Angel of Music. Both of them are!

[@IndiaHeathIRL]

+Katie Williamson Would love to see Les Mis! I only got into it after the film came out but completely fell in love with the music. If I lived in England I'd be going to a lot more musicals, we don't have a huge amount here in Ireland and when they are here I never find out about them in time. Missed 'Once' just there, the tickets we most expensive then I thought they'd be so couldn't go unfortunately :(

[@LunaLoveheart]

India Heath that's such a shame :( I actually live in Newcastle but my sister lives in London so I'm lucky enough to be able to see west end shows once or twice a year. I only got into Les Mis after the film too and can't believe I didn't hear the music or story earlier, it's 100% my favourite musical now and always will be!

[@kiraburton6132]

I performed a couple of years ago at Her Majesty's Theatre for a day with a load of dance schools, and it was an amazing experience to perform on a West End stage. Soon I also get a chance to perform at Royal Albert Hall for a day in a few months as well!!! But I wish I could be performing on stage every night like you guys xx

[@jamess9855]

This video is the best! It's so true. I always forget about illnesses, like being happy for not having something as simple as a bad headache which stops you from doing what you want but it's just something you forget to appreciate when you are healthy.

[@emhollick3493]

Walking!! After being on crutches for 8 weeks and in a wheelchair on and off; for me walking is something that I now seriously take for granted, the ability to now get myself from place to place without running out of breath or being able to carry things from one place to another is something I always just did as normal. I had to carry things around with my teeth or get someone to do it for me, getting out of breath just by standing is very difficult. I was only like that for 8 weeks so I fully respect and applaud anyone who has to be in a wheelchair or on crutches 24/7 because its not easy and you guys deserve so much credit!!! Lots of love hopefuls xxx

[@AndreaMGC]

Things we take for granted: language. Communication.

[@amyamyamy17]

I believe that was covered with phones and Internet. Everything we do is some sort of communication. We couldn't not communicate if we tried.

[@AndreaMGC]

+amyamyamy17 Wow, Amyamyamy17, way to take language for granted ;) lol jk I think there's a big enough distinction to merit its own category. Internet and phones are a relatively new invention. There was language and communication before those things. And no matter how far back you go in history of human beings there is some form of communication. And that is pretty spectacular. I think being grateful for internet is being grateful for access to the world. Being thankful for language is being thankful for the nature of our species.

[@amyamyamy17]

AndreaMGC Yeah but if that's the case then we should also understand that we take thumbs for granted. And two front-facing eyes, so we have depth perception. We take for granted that evolution allowed our species to flourish on this particular planet during this particular epoch. We take for granted that someone figured out how to make glass and plastic and how to use metal to our benefit. My point about communication is that it's not specific to humans. Every living creature communicates. Other animals, bugs, plants, even our individual cells are communicating with each other constantly just to keep us alive. Yes, it's something that we don't have to think about and we don't necessarily feel grateful for, because it's innate. Without communication, the world wouldn't exist. I suppose we take it for granted, but if we didn't, there really wouldn't be time for much else. :)

[@AndreaMGC]

amyamyamy17 :) we can still feel grateful given the larger scope.

[@elleparker3651]

You two are both incredibly beautiful! And both your singing voices give me chills

[@NicAlba]

She has a great Phantom of the Opera voice. Love this video. I got very happy watching this.

[@thesargent123]

England's transport is so good, I went there for 5 weeks and I miss the trains so much, I fell in love with them because I had the ability to get wherever I wanted so fast, in my country we have a few trains, and mainly buses which come once every 2 hours and that's if they decide to show up at all, and they have never not once been on time

[@emilyholland7744]

Both of you are so beautiful! And both are amazing singers!. Also, I love Celinde's accent so much!!

[@llottex]

Just replaying the singing part of Celinde over and over again. (Je stem is echt prachtig!).

[@SarahFreer]

i still think celinde looks like a prettier version of katie price

[@xiahkixiri]

OMG, i was wondering who the hell she reminded me of

[@lifeasiknowit5688]

yes !! thank you !!

[@spoonfedtwice9171]

Sarah Freer anything is a prettier version of Katy price

[@garyc]

The tube thing is so funny. It's weird to think the tunnels, trains and stuff are made by humans. We are clever beasts :D x

[@DontWigOut]

Books being printed! I work in a bookshop and totally take ow all of our stock got there for granted. Sometimes I just think about all of different ways we've made books over the years, and now we can have thousands made then shipped off everywhere, rather than just a handful of copies.

[@Sylviaell3n]

I sometimes take my family for granted! When I was growing up and living at home, I didn't appreciate them as much as I do now. Now being that I am over seas, I find myself missing them so very much and have realised I definitley took them for granted when,I was younger! xx

[@IndiaHeathIRL]

That's mad, I literally went to see Phantom of the Opera in Her Majesty's Theater like a month before Celinde joined the cast. I can't express how weird but wonderful it would have been if I had actually seen her in it and then found this, would have blown my mind. Wish I had been able to see the orchestra when I went though, would have made it extra amazing. I could see the pianists in their little booth and ended up watching them a lot more than I probably should have! I was one of the last to leave when it ended because I could finally stand up and see the orchestra who kept playing for about five minutes and that was defiantly a highlight for me, actually SEEING that amazing music being created right in front of me. I'm about to fall back down the Phantom hole, see everyone in a few days after looping soundtrack 15 times...

[@caro9390]

Carries videos from this time period are my absolute comfort videos to watch when I don't feel well❤️

[@PollyRizzleKicks]

Carrie, as you know I am disabled and have various illnesses. Before I got ill, I definitely took everyday life for granted. Just being able to do things like clean my teeth everyday, showering every other day, eating using normal sized cutlery, walking to the loo, getting upstairs, the list is endless. Now I hardly take much for granted. If I manage anything, I always congratulate myself. Be thankful for everyday life! :) big love xxx

[@Rachael8989]

I was getting distracted by all the beautiful Phantom costumes in the background! The cloak that Carrie wears at the end is so stunning. So happy for lovely Celinde that she gets to play Christine, one of my favourite roles. She's so pretty and such a great singer. :)

[@freyamhaworth]

I've performed at her majesty's theatre! I've been in that dressing room! I'm performing there again too!

[@LegoMrsC135]

I performed with stagecoach there!

[@IndiaHeathIRL]

+Freya Haworth So jealous of all you stage performers, of your dancing/singing/acting skills and seeing the behind the scenes of stuff like this. I did a little kids theater thing years ago and it was so exciting, I can only imagine what it's like performing at Majesty's Theater!

[@ironflowers977]

I performed there too, the Sunday before last (15th November), it was so amazing and I was somehow even more starstruck being in that theatre and on that stage that so many amazing people have been on and practically lived in, than I have been actually meeting west end stars in person!! It was a thing with a bunch of different dance schools performing that all had different dressing rooms and my school happened to be in the corps de ballet one which was pretty cool :D

[@Waggers789]

Rewatching this during 2020! I took going to the theatre for granted. Miss theatre so much.

[@christelyeo4191]

Fresh air is one thing we definitely take for granted until we don't have it - I'm from Singapore and we have had a haze situation that made our air more polluted that it was before.. Also, blue skies. Blue skies are amazing and it took me a semester abroad to realize how precious they are and how much they actually affect your mood for the day

[@DemigodCircle]

CELINE'S VOICE IS GOLD

[@marinasaurus]

Celindes makeup is absolutely stunning! Man, wish I was that good with makeup!

[@NEON-uc9no]

We take our lives for granted. Just think it will never be this exact second on this exact day, in this exact year again and no one else will ever see something they way you do or at the same angle you see it at.

[@elizahamilton8750]

The way Carrie says shoes gives me life

[@onyinye-4188]

I love videos with Celinde. She's gorgeous inside and out.

[@ArcusLibri]

I love it when you guys make videos together, they're so enjoyable! Also, Celinde's eye makeup is so nice here.

[@suzannerussell633]

Stores like Walmart and Costco and places where you could just go and buy whatever you need or want, I definitely used to take for granted until I was deployed to Afghanistan and then we had nothing except one small store which you would literally have to stand in line to get into on the days they restocked and they still never had everything you needed, also in that same manner the Post Office! So many people complain about lost packages and delays but in the "olden days" it would take months or even almost a whole year for a package to get from one side of the world to the other and you definitely didn't have any guarantees or refunds or anything like that. Lol Deploying definitely puts home life into perspective, I'm pretty sure I cried when I walked into Walmart again for the first time in a year lol

[@sam1d22101]

I take being a twin for granted. I was given a friend from the moment I was born.

[@Wheeze_NL]

You must be two of the most wonderful people in the world! Friendship goals!

[@hollybridson5239]

Celinde singing at the end gave me chills 😍😍😍😍😍

[@april9586]

I've watched a couple of videos on many different channels today and it SO NICE to scroll down and see lovely comments and people helping each other and being kind. I take Carrie and you wonderful hopefuls reading this for granted!

[@andyclit]

Glad to see you two are still interacting. These are my favorite videos!

[@jsmith813]

I love Carrie and Celinde and I love Les Mis and Phantom!!! Plus a great conversation! This makes me very happy

[@njplovesjb4life]

This is so true! I also think food is something people really take for granted. For some people it is so hard to come by but for us you just go to the grocery store and people throw away half the food they eat anyway. That's just one thing but there are so many others too!! Such a great video :)

[@mcrguitar316]

Thanks Carrie and Celinde, never thought of these :)

[@mauralavenders]

Rewatching this video in 2020 and thinking about how I never thought I would take in-person classes/in-person interaction for granted.

[@AndreaHeckler]

I definitely take technology for granted too. Easy long-distance communication is literally the only way I'm able to stay in-touch with some of the most important people in my life! It's nice to pause and remember to be thankful for that :)

[@Cassieandra13]

"It's like being in a show" I that was my favorite line in the video

[@angelicat8540]

I'm so happy for Celinde!! How awesome!!

[@NicoleBanana0605]

Love the subject of this video. Felt as if I was with you just chatting away. And I love Celinde, she's amazing! Love from Holland!

[@cookiecrumble1011]

A.) you and celindes videos give me life B.) am I the only person who re-watched carrie in the cloak and celinde singing at least 10 times because it was so beautiful, that 5 seconds gives me chills C.) I love you Carrie you fabulous fabulous human being

[@beccafrances31]

oh my gosh that snip bit of somehow here again....my heartttttt …

[@RukayaCesar]

What a way to end a video! I can't wait to see Celinde as Christine I bet she's beautiful in the role. Need to see you a few more times as Eponine as well Carrie! xx

[@representationmetaphorique]

Always keeping me appreciative. Thank you Carrie.

[@Karen_esque]

It's so good to see Celinde again!

[@Laurenbaggy]

This video is so so refreshing and positive and exciting! It really makes you think about all of these things that we never think about and find so annoying. In reality it's trivial and the world is full of such wonder and excitement.

[@vanessalaurenpeaty]

Our washing machine is currently broken, definitely took that for granted. And after finally receiving a new WORKING fridge, and no longer having to buy meals everyday, it is SO amazing to have a working box of cold air that actually provides us with cold milk! It's insane.

[@TheYassiG]

My super incredibly comfortable bed. Also, just the ability to speak and listen and understand. Just being is something to be grateful for.

[@tamsynhowells798]

EDUCATION! I moan about uni SO much, "Ohhh, I have so much work to do", "this lecture is boring"... but I am at university, and millions don't have that chance!! Love this video, you and Celinde are such great friends, and it is lovely to see xxx

[@THExBLEEDINGxROSES]

The way Carrie said Nike at 3:19

[@NEON-uc9no]

I always try not to take stuff for granted but I know that I do. Like on a Monday morning I dread going to school, but then I think at least I'm getting a good education in good clothes in a stable building. Also music, music is my life and I can tap a little piece of machinery and hear it whenever I want. That is amazing

[@lisaisanut]

My friends. 100% take them for granted. I know I do it, and I seriously wish I could appreciate them and all that they do for me all day, every day. But they're so amazing that it'd probably tire me out and lord knows I don't need to be more tired than I already am.

[@phoebemills7932]

Celinde is so beautiful both inside and out. Can see why you and her get on so well Carrie :) x

[@Sophiemollyy98]

Since becoming a biology student ive really realised how much i take my boy for granted. Every single cell in our body will go through so much work every single day just to keep us alive. Theres so many things going on in the body all the time that we dont know about, all our bodies want to do is keep us alive and i think we forget that sometimes.

[@girlenchanted]

I always make it a point to not take things for granted. I look at random things and think, "wow how many people aren't as lucky as I am right now?" A roof over my head, a warm bed, loving parents, clean clothes, health, the fact I can go to school, my own phone, computer, money to spend on basically what I want...always be grateful, otherwise you might regret it

[@charlieesparza9109]

You two together is what gives me life!

[@Nbubs-1]

i love celinde so much, it's really cool to see someone from the same country as me actually making it happen! it makes me feel really proud and giddy

[@alexandramw8759]

I have a few but the first thing that popped into my mind was the beach. I live 10 minutes from it and hardly ever go but when I go I love it.

[@RaeOfLiv]

The majority of my university's library is online (as well as in hard copy) which makes researching essays and reports so much easier. My university also has access to the biggest database of any university in the Southern hemisphere. I definitely take those things for granted and get so annoyed when a journal article I want is only in hard copy.

[@Maria-ez1cm]

LIGHT!!!!!!!!! ELECTRICITY!!!!!!! I think about this from time to time, it is amazing bc we use it for EVERYTHING!

[@Just_jessie_3]

You two are playing both of my dream roles it's too much ahhhhh you're so perfect! That's something I take for granted too, musical theater! And how lucky I am to be able to be a part of it myself.

[@cherylwilliams2730]

At some point in time we take everything for granted until you lose it, it's delayed or disconnected or lost in transit you don't realise. Emotions, sight, senses, thoughts, abilities it all can be taken for granted but how much we take it for granted can also vary. We are lucky enough to live in a part of a world where much is easily accessible but to others basic necessities aren't available. Giving back to others can be a way of resolving such things and feeling like you are helping and gaining a better understanding. Health is something the majority of people take for granted along with their family.

[@Mazzi6]

OMG Celinde is soooo beautifull. I just can't!

[@Charli17x]

firstly Celinde's eye makeup is flawless omg, secondly, I've performed at Her Majesty's theatre that's so cool !!!! and also this video is so trueeee

[@NEVERwillIletUgo]

Absolutely loved this! I enjoy the movie of the Phantom and the ending was perffff

[@hatorigirl1202]

that little snippet of Bare Necessities is a lovely way to end a video. if you ever wanted an ending bit that didn't change I think that'd be a very nice choice.

[@reynachoi6853]

IM SO HAPPY THAT SHE'S CHRISTINE. SO HAPPY.

[@sallyjulia2796]

I take books for granted every single day. The stories that are captured and put in to print that I can reread to my heart's content. I have reread my favourite books so many times; I've read Harry Potter in three languages! And I take for granted that I can do that every single day ❤️

[@LunaLoveheart]

Having friends and family that love you unconditionally is something I take for granted

[@Emmyradrad]

We are currently having our bathroom done and only had a toilet for a week. Believe me, when that bath got fitted I'd never been more grateful!

[@jessicarocks123100]

You to beautiful ladies are so amazing ..... Both of you doing videos together always puts a big smile on my face

[@AgentMaayan]

I often find that people take the state of peace in their countries for granted. This is from the point of view of someone who has lived her entire life in the middle east, where it's almost never sunshine and rainbows (and lately even more so), and I see friends and just people abroad who absolutely take it for granted. Generally, being safe; some people have just never had it any other way. It's so easy to just take that for granted.

[@alexandrazoe4324]

I used to take happiness for granted but seeing as I now seem to be sad very often ,I no longer take being happy for granted :)

[@Friendliestfriend99]

Ahhh I love this video!!! Please film more with Celinde!! And I guess your videos are something I take for granted too, and how happy they make me! xxx

[@BlueBlossom24]

Your videos make me so happy ☺️ I love both of you 🙌🏻
