first time hearing MOANA | Producer Reacts

[@CodyMcManus]

Watch MOANA (full movie) with me here! www.patreon.com/posts/71596111

[@kittiesice]

Fun gact: The Rock's daughter literally tells her daughter to shut up anytime she hears him try to sing along with "Your Welcome" because it 'ruins the song'. XD

[@eddog6666]

The rock voices a Demi-god

[@eddog6666]

The rock singing in moana is a reference to a match he show up and started to sing.

[@McCammalot]

This child was only 14 when she got this role. Love her.

[@kitten375]

I know you watched and love the music from Encanto. I'm sure you know that Lin-Manuel Miranda wrote the songs for both of these movies. Your reactions are so much fun to watch.

[@kalelvasques]

The hamilton guy?

[@SusieQ3]

I have a 3 year old. I've seen Moana every day for the past 2 months 🤣 I enjoyed your analysis. It was like hearing these songs again with fresh ears.

[@HannibalFan52]

My mother was an English teacher and amateur pianist. One of her favorite musical terms was the 'hemi-demi-semi-quaver', because of the repetition of sounds. Every time Tomatoa refers to Maui as a 'semi-demi-mini-god', it reminds me of Mum.

[@levimiller5419]

thanks, 🙏🏽 that's a wonderful way to remember her by 😢😅😊

[@SpudsClips]

3:05 Cody: Explaining the various elements of the vocals and music simply but also detailed enough that the audience understands what he's saying. Me: Not hearing a word because I'm to busy laughing at Moana's face.

[@izzxlio]

I didn’t even notice her face until you said something 😂😂😂😂

[@nathalieweber7071]

I love this🤣 same!

[@yourdanasty1]

I noticed this too, it was hilarious. 😂

[@sarahkwast1250]

I have heard that "Shiny" was written to be performed as David Bowie would perform it. It is very much a style that fits Bowie, so I can believe it. Also Dwayne Johnson actually does have a very nice singing voice, but I don't know if he ever had any real vocal training.

[@orlandoawilliams799]

When I heard "Shiny" in the theater I immediately thought of how it reminded me of Bowie, who'd passed away earlier that year...

[@levimiller5419]

I'm not sure either if Dwayne did either,but I do recall(and Lin Manuel draws his inspiration from a number of different accounts) there's a scene from Journey to the center of the earth(also features Dwayne Johnson but he's the dad in this version) where he and actor Michael Cane are having a wholesome moment by a campfire 🔥,than you see Dwayne play an instrument,I don't recall exactly the right one but he plays it and starts singing. It wasn't for very long yet that scene reminds me a lot of Maui from Moana, You're Welcome 😁

[@sarahkwast1250]

@@levimiller5419 Journey is the first time I heard him sing. Then I saw a short on KZbin where he was singing to his daughter. His voice is beautiful and I am so glad they let him sing in Moana. 😊

[@levimiller5419]

@@sarahkwast1250 see 😁 I knew I wasn't seeing things ha 🤣,that's where I first saw 🤣 him sing as well.

[@karentecott640]

This song was written by Lin Manuel Miranda. Disney songs tell stories so well because they hire Broadway songwriters from Richard Roger's on.

[@Kestrel029]

I love your enthusiasm, it's contagious! When I was last at the Magic Kingdom, this was played at the end during the fireworks show. My (then) 5 year old daughter was in my arms singing this at the top of her voice.

[@serahnkahukura8433]

If you've never heard of Jemaine Clement before, check out some Flight of the Conchords. The song Shiny was written specifically to match Jemaine's creepy Bowie-esque vibe from one of the conchords songs.

[@McCammalot]

I think Lin Manuel Miranda also put out a version of it!

[@michelleblackwell5122]

Shiny is my favorite song from this movie. When I first heard it, I thought it was Bowie. Years later, when my granddaughter got into Moana, I looked up some trivia and found out that Bowie was the sound they were going for.

[@HorrorGeek9]

I absolutely adore the Moana soundtrack 💙

[@benitosalazar5526]

3:07 😂😂😂😂😂 moanas face

[@dantippett2676]

You might want to check out the Voiceplay Moana medley... and their Little Mermaid one too... if you haven't already. Fabulous the way they can capture the essence of an entire movie in 6 or 7 minutes... and you get some different rhythmic takes and arrangements on some of the songs which is quite cool too. BTW... just found out from one of your videos that you're a Canuck... glad to have you out there representing us. Cheers! ~Dan

[@RubyMadigan]

Have you watched Enchanted? I love the songs in that (and all the hundreds of disney cameos and references). With the sequel coming up it could be a great option

[@fireruby1882]

Don’t you mean Encanto…

[@RubyMadigan]

@@fireruby1882 No I meant Enchanted. It came out like 15 years ago

[@alexpaulk2819]

Fun fact: Jemaine Clement sings the Māori version of the song “Shiny” and I highly recommend you search it and go watch it

[@cyberwolf_1013]

Dwayne Johnson (aka The Rock) doesn't have a singing background at all. He was a pro-wrestler through the 90s and mid to late 2000s and he would use music and songs a lot to mock people in that persona. You really should watch some of his old promo clips, they're hilarious, and the "Rock" concert he did in the middle of the ring. Great video, I love how you break the songs down, really get a feel of them.

[@McCammalot]

In an interview, Lin Manuel actually said that he cast Dwayne Johnson just because he was so incredibly likeable in real life that he could get away with being Maui, one of the most conceited beings ever. (Also, being part Samoan helped.

[@xxprettylittlethings]

Dwayne actually did a rap verse in A song called Face Off

[@Loveless0012]

He also sang in Mysterious Island :)

[@katierose1388]

Yes please! I love your Disney Soundtrack reviews!!

[@hmak8605]

LOVE your reactions to musicals!! Please do more!

[@allydean-ikon6086]

I love moana so much 😭 and the grandma part

[@aishaalamoudi599]

I just watched Moana,,, a week ago I watched Encanto... god damn, Disney magic is real.

[@mowglisavonturen]

Enjoyed your reaction! 🤩 Have you tried the Disney movie 'Tangled'? It's amazing and has great songs (especially 'I see the light').

[@orlandoawilliams799]

I would have loved to hear "Shiny" done by David Bowie.

[@katarinawikholm5873]

YES! That would have been 100%

[@manxgirl]

Have you watched "Coco"? Now THAT'S got some good songs, too. I laugh everytime I hear "Un Poco Loco". But, I'm also easily amused.

[@ladyvader139]

How far I'll Go gives me chills. I love this soundtrack 😍

[@zach99999]

These are my 3 favorite songs from this movie. Good choices

[@theodysseyowl]

Me and my friend did this song as a duet for a talent show; it was so much fun :D

[@VanquishSoReal]

Yess keep these coming!!!

[@Dimsrose]

I swear if you never watch Hamilton I am going to cry privately 😂. React to ONE song. ONE. I feel like you're the only one on KZbin who would even understand how to articulate the complexity. Which, btw, is on Disney plus.

[@Hotwheels0185]

Oh God I'm not sure im prepared to watch him watch Phillipa Soo sing and cry in anguish through out that masterpiece

[@Dimsrose]

@@Hotwheels0185 yeeeesss. The fact that he probably doesn't EVEN KNOW is killing me.

[@SilasOsterwalder-yx3tj]

The guy who sings your Welcome the demiguy his actor is the Rock

[@HollyFromAcrossThePond]

You'd love the princess and the frog friends on the other side! To be fair that whole soundtrack is amazing! Please please react to it!

[@CodyMcManus]

Great suggestion! Thanks :)

[@HeiwaTori]

Jemaine Clement also voiced Nigel in Rio & Rio2 & goes off in those movies for absolutely no reason

[@TiBunCosplay]

I kind of want to watch you react to "Lost in the Woods" from Frozen 2. Just something you said in this video made me think of that. lol

[@yepitsthecatdev]

love ur reactions :)))))

[@CodyMcManus]

THANK U!!

[@yepitsthecatdev]

@@CodyMcManus no prob :))

[@thiagocastrodias2]

That's one of my favorite Disney songs ever

[@mooreorless31]

I suggest you check out Vivo! Such a good soundtrack. Another Lin-Manuel Miranda masterpiece

[@vexisonline]

Great takes on the Disney vids, I’d love to see you react to “Lost in the woods” from Frozen 2, as it has an amazing 80s power ballad vibe, reminescent of Chicago or Peter/Cetera and a nice Queen reference as well. Just discovered your channel, keep it up. Love it

[@CodyMcManus]

I havent seen frozen 2. I might just have to give it a watch

[@theodysseyowl]

I think the best parts of these videos are just seeing the screen when he pauses it

[@RedtheNeko42]

AT LAST!

[@McCammalot]

It's David Bowie filtered through Jemaine Clement (New Zealand comedian)

[@ysagohh]

Frozen 2 is also great!! 😍

[@magla5818]

Yes please more of this kind of content!!!

[@yukihug1664]

Knowing it's Dwayne The Rock Johnson just now I can never go back. Legend voices a legend 💪 🔥

[@cykogamer6369]

You should watch the singing what they do videos, pretty funny tbh and keeps the beats with words that don't make sense but make sense

[@CodyMcManus]

OOOhhhh thatd be cool

[@kyleknapp1985]

The rock sings all the time. He’s so good.

[@ConnellxSilverfur]

Cody, if you're interested in reacting to other musical performances, I'd love to suggest some of the soundtrack from the show RWBY. Specifically "Red Like Roses", "Indomitable," and "This Life is Mine." Hoenstly it's just a great show to react to as well!

[@JusDavN]

I think there's a live video of him recording this with Lin Manuel

[@sarah-bethhogg]

Shiny is my favourite song.

[@harrythefish4593]

Can you react to a any of the music the the hunchback of Notre Dame? That has some of my favorite disney music

[@MindyKoch1]

Please watch Flight of the Conchords and get to know the musical comedic genius that is Jemaine Clement.

[@ThePinkDragon]

the voice actresss was eaither15 or 16 when she did moana

[@theworldanime4331]

I really want more disney songs.I enjoy waching you😊

[@goobjones]

Auli'i was only like 15 I think when she recorded it

[@nelsontrejosalazar5377]

uál es el tema que el cangrejo canta a los 12:11

[@nikkio197]

Disney knows how to do emotional songs 😆 Great movie…I think they’re doing a series follow up to this soon?

[@Enterprisek143]

Love your energy, side note are you Andrew Garfields long lost cousin?

[@ShadowoftheShades]

Lin-Manuel Miranda. 'Nough said. ❤️

[@mariasaenz3524]

You gotta react to Hamilton. Same songwriter as Moana and Encanto, and since the performance is on Disney+, you could call it a “Disney movie”

[@Nocturn92]

I don't know know if you like music which have some, how could I say, church vibes. I would really enjoy if you would give us a personal comment of either the full movie 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' movie or the songs 'The Bells of Notre Dame' , 'Out there', 'God help the Outcast' , 'Heavens Light / Hellfire' and 'Court of Miracles' (maybe 'A Guy like You' too) in a row? Yeah if you do secind the effect may be anticlimatic, but i would like hearing your opinion for these (for my opinion) masterpieces

[@justicehodge3490]

Btw you don’t know his name his name is tamatoa I liked and subbed

[@nickdorenkamp959]

so if you haven't seen this film, I recommend giving Pixar's animated musical Coco a watch. Also I know someone already mentioned this but give Enchanted a watch.

[@serqet42]

This will seem like it's out of left field. But you should check out some music from Final Fantasy 14. 'Scream' is a new one that I highly recommend.

[@LucaChuck25]

You oughta react to Billy Joel in the Oliver movie. Not a very well know Disney movie, but great song

[@bangtanhideout1577]

Please react to frozen 2 and tangled songs❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@SJigler]

Nice!

[@JollyFrogger]

You should react to some other songs from moana!

[@tadcooper9733]
