Guy Sebastian - Choir (Live at the 2019 ARIA Awards) | REACTION AND REVIEW

[@justlinsu]

Oh bless you sir, I love Guy Sebastian. A little background on this particular performance. Guy wrote this after his friend and band member took his own life. Guy wrote it as a ballad but couldn't get through it without becoming emotional. So he changed it to a 'celebration' of Luke's life and this performance was just after the song won the Australian Record Industry Award (ARIA). Also the choir was a Maori Choir and they sang the intro "Brother You Are Home" which was a beautiful touch. Guy writes about real life and has created with his wife The Sebastian Foundation, which supports many groups and recently Guy walked 500kms and raised over a $million for a program for students who are struggling with the emotional trauma of lockdowns and post covid etc. The program is called Open Parachute and is now free for students needing support in over 30,000 schools. Sorry for rambling on lol.

Well said

It wasn’t rambling. It was informative 😀. I didn’t know about the Open Parachute program. Thanks for the info 😀

Ah-ree-Ah. There's a lovely version of him doing this as a prank, where he walks in on a school choir singing the song, and joins in.

I liked it before I saw it. I love this reviewer. I love Guy. ... I agree with the reviewers comments about this performance.

[@Dornie51]

I remember when he shot onto the music scene around 27 years ago with a big smile and his big afro. His voice is sharp and precise. A great entertainer.

[@carolynh8866]

Guy music just sooths

[@lauragarner7095]

He wrote this about his friend who unalive’d himself I love guy he can sing anything and he is just a beautiful human and his wife lovely little family they are ❤

[@MsSlmitchell]

"I know you're looking down on us, I'm missing you bro. I hope you're proud of us." That gets me everytime...my brother passed away from cancer 5 years ago on May 2nd and it makes me think of him. 😢

[@DeborahWade1]

[@brownmouse100]

[@alliegal45]

Guy’s performance for the Thalians Club honouring Smoky Robinson is worth a watch 😊

[@sarahmacbesancon7534]

I’m so happy you have been told about Guy…he’s great…love him..💞💞🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@kennykarlsson6691]

Amazing singer and live performer. He should be more notised world wide with a voice like that. 👌

[@heathernicole3655]

Guy's brother Chris is also an extremely talented musician.

[@shenoashbay1361]

Yes this was about one of Guys friends who died❤ another great singer

[@lynndally9160]

Absolutely love Guy, also a little help with ARIA, we pronounce it Ahreeah

[@Fish29077]

Guy singing from the heart as always.

[@squeaky1374]

Set In Stone, Standing With You and Before I Go (live on KIIS fm) as well as Battle Scars (live from the Home Front) really showcase his vocals. Thanks for delving into his catalogue, much appreciated!

[@Kimmy58]

He's already listened to battlescars both the one with Lupe and from the homefront. He did his famous "disgrossting" line and facial look and it was hilarious. You should check them both out ...the one with Lupe first then homefront. Many blessings mate!!😂

[@mals4125]

This song should be globally famous - just a great song.

[@robynsmith5903]

OMG thank you never heard him before and what a beautiful song! So glad you are back

[@WendyKay84]

It's 'AH-ri-ah' (Like an operatic aria) The Australian Recording Industry Association Awards. And yeah, Guy is awesome. Genuinely awesome.

[@williecoulter1091]

ARIA ( pronounced Are - ea.) stands for Australian Recording Industry Awards and the audience are all performers in their own rights.

[@amandameale6000]

Thank you for this reaction. I agree with your ballad comments. This was fun!

[@julzhunt7790]

Ahh. Food for the soul😊 Keep up the good work. ❤️🇦🇺

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Guys voice is so rich, thanks heaps for reacting to him again. Can you please react to a similar singer in Stan Walker “amazing grace” live with the Levites, he’s phenomenal

[@realbser1956]

Enjoyed this very much even though it’s about his friends suicide. Thanks for the reaction Michael. Nice to see you back brother. 😀

[@thereseelizabethries1083]

ARIA = AAAAHHH REEA is the best way to write it so you know how to say it lol😊.

[@raptattention7242]
