In this video Musical Theatre Coach Marc Daniel Patrick breaks down Morissettes cover of She Used to Be Mine from the Musical Waitress.

[@EllaB33]

I thought she did really well. I like her interpretation. She’s captivating. I was moved by her delivery. Her rendition is one of my favorite among hundreds on KZbin.

[@henrylotiz4644]

Hmm not really

[@rickysuarez1948]

Thank you for featuring Morissette. I think your reaction and inputs are fair. In an ideal set-up, she's going to be at her best. One thing great about her, she's focused when she performs. I agree that she's a gift to music.

[@lauriemcmaster6418]

I ugly cried. You remained much more composed than I did.

[@eduardojavier507]

Good job Marc nice reaction I hope mori will see this reaction it will to her Motivation you are really a theater man I hope someday you and mori will Work together that would be great

[@redstark7330]

Most amazing voice I've heard.. so much emotions . One of the best like Barbara Whitney Celine Beyonce . Listening to her voice is like feeling each words... I've got goosebumps 😱👍👍👍😍😍

[@CraftyKarin]

WOW. I’ve seen & heard so many renditions of this song and always secretly favored Sara’s, there was always something where I was like ‘nah… I liked it better the way Sara does that part’ and when she started I was expecting to feel the same…. And then she blew me away. Wow wow wow. Thanks for sharing this.

[@jannahannaj]

"This song always gets me. Any song always gets me, who are we kidding?" Agreed 😂

[@busoy13]

Very proffesional reaction. Much appreciate on what you see to morisette's performance. I know she appreciate your reaction too. You will be able to make her grow more and make her performance even more outstanding. Morisette is one of the best singer in our country in philippines. If she will be able to take your advice here? She will for sure to tear somebody's feelings while listening and watching to her performance for sure.

[@HOE-rv6ie]

Morissette just enjoy singing. It's a fact that this is not her main genre. She's not afraid to explore outside her comfort zone.

[@willygallardo7816]

Agreed...

[@mrbrightside6095]

I truly love Mori and This is one of my favorites ever performances and I don’t think those hating have seen the full reaction. I thought you did right Marc I’m sure should Mori see this she would appreciate your advice. Keep it on

[@nathansanglap1939]

How could you not cry with this kind of performance.

[@mylenebuenaluz9398]

Great Analysis! Thanks Coach! More Morissette video reaction, please.

[@kevinhardwick]

Beautiful

[@BoraViolin]

I came not knowing what to expect, because I remember in previous comments people kept asking about you reacting to this, and you had reservations, so I never expected to see it here. I gotta say as a super fan of Morissette (My love and respect for her knows no bounds) and super fan of Broadway (started with Annie in 3rd grade lol and once found myself backstage during a 3 month run of "The King and I' at my Citys theater where my daughter played "Princess ying Yaowalak") I walked away from this reaction with thoughtfulness and it didn't get my heart rate up ,or get me defensive lol. I think having a healthy knowledge about all things Morissette and a personal love for Broadway helps me here. Many may not know, but her Managers are heavily linked to Musical theater in the Phillipines. Pop is actually not their Wheelhouse. She's got some grounding there. I'm the type of Broadway fan (if there is a type) that I HAVE to have exceptional vocals AND exceptional embodiment of the character. If the Vocals are lacking I just can't deal, because I didn't pay all that money to see a play. I paid for a musical (so please bring the vocals) you cannot act your way out of subpar vocals for me (again that is just me). Therefore she satisfies me here in full given the circumstances. (I get your contention with the trappings of the circumstances as well ,but everyone did the best they could during that time heck still are, we're still zooming out here ). When we saw this performance "live" (by that I mean when it premiered.) It was one song in a series of Broadway selections, so she'd talk then sing. It is tough from her stand point (and you touched on this). She's centering herself in and out of a range of emotions and characters. In this session she went from Jenna to Kim (Miss Saigon) , to Grisabella (Cats) to Lucy (Jekyll & Hyde) to name a few. I also appreciate you pointing out the limitations of a track vs live accompaniment ! I wish more people understood that, not just here, but just period when people are performing. I'm again long winded ,but I'll wrap this up by saying , this song is just some of the BEST writing for a musical hands down! I remember Sara saying when asked about how this song has taken on a life of it's own. (It's been sung by Men, Little kids, Gospel singers in cafes you name it!) She said her songs are like her babies and she wants all her babies to have long lives. I'm proud my Girl Morissette is part of that link.

[@stoneshack2000]

Well said..

[@yoojin3877]

Terri, it sounds like you and I had a nearly identical reaction to his analysis. One could argue whether he should have framed his reaction a bit differently to consider that this was a pop singer interpreting a Broadway song in a pop style, but I understand that he functions within the musical theatre world, and I certainly respect and appreciate that. I thought his analysis was thoughtful and fair for the lens he chose to look through. And boy did he have a point about those pop-ups -- so annoying! The worst one had to be when a Lion King factoid popped up *right* at the high point of Someone Like You 🤦🏻‍♀️😖

[@jellyace4679]

She is way better than the original.

[@gerrycastillo725]

Actually i come out a bit defensive on this reaction aswell. Even if im not a theatrical buff, i still say Morissette did great here. I want to respond on reactor comment of “she tried to annunciate more” , well Mori annunciate her words on most if not all her performances. Hehehe amazing is our Mori.💙💙✌️. Hi Terri

[@henrylotiz4644]

@@jellyace4679i respect your opinion but honestly i don't think so,.

[@rosepratiwi6532]

Morisette has a very powerful voice and I am a fan of her. Each song she covered always comes more beautiful than the original.

[@jessasoliano797]

Very insightful, transparent and no bias reaction. Thank you for reacting to Morissette, i immediately subscribed.

[@CarmenStarick]

WOW, that gave me goosebumps and made me cry. Beautiful. I have heard this song so many times, and love it more every time I hear it. Fingers crossed Waitress eventually comes to Australia so I can see it live.

[@corwinsshadow]

Great version. And totally her own read on it. So many other (all be it great) versions have similar dynamics and phrasings. They try to deliver a performance reminiscent of the recording to meet expectatuons. This just seems uniquely her own.

[@SvMykolas]

This performance is absolutely great and outstanding, technically and emotionally. I feel every note and word Morissette sings. If you compare it to the original singer Morissette is so much more emotionally connected and transporting those emotions. Even Mr. Patrick felt it obviously, but, as with Defying Gravity, he has already decided before he even started listening to Morissette, that her rendition can't be as good. Some people talk about honesty. But honesty has nothing to do with prejudice. My opinion.

[@user-ym1ij9su5z]

Morissette is the greatest singer there is ❤❤❤

[@Rosannasfriend]

19:54, I see she made you emotional there!

[@rogeliozamora6018]

I have never seen a guy who seemed to have contradicted himself twice over. First, when he had to explain himself during the Mori-Espanto duet; And now this ...

[@darkknight2475]

The Onion Queen strikes again. Another tissue moment. ❤️❤️❤️ I'm not too familiar with this song and the background story of this play, but when I heard it the first time from Morissette, it pulled my soul and made me teary-eyed.

[@TheTruth-im6es]

Wow, that performance would've brought Lucifer himself to tears. I couldn't hold back either

[@dangiray531]

Morissette 🤘🥰

[@BigMike88]

Beast mode 💪great job @morissette

[@yaydiaz1282]

I understand how u analyse..And I appreciate u for that..Morissette is seeing herself in mirror I think...And she used to smile always for her fans...But I understand ur technical views here...But at the end..Morissette makes u teary eyed..hehehe

[@westerntrend]

Hey Mark, pls check out the co-equal of Morissete, the Asia's Vocal Supreme Katrina Velarde. Check her out sing a Meddley of all of Whitney Houston song live at Metrowalk Music Hall or her sing a Latin Meddley (Spain, Oye Como Va, All this love and Don't you worry 'bout a thing) live with her late husband on the drums.

[@allengje]

I'm glad you've continued to get to know Morissette's vocals. Hope you keep on listening to her.

[@richardsamuel1608]

At the end of day. "just Listen". New Zealand peace out.

[@torkilnilssen1536]

Love your reaction, you are the third person counting me, that react so strong when she says Mixed up.

[@jaremtakaishi8911]

This was an incredible in-depth review, I love it so much! More of these please! You pointed out something we didnt notice and it all makes sense why she performs way better live where there’s no screen to make her feel conscious about herself.

[@hazelalberio9447]

I'm here because of morissette

[@davesmith5470]

Love this video Marc, love that you are so honest and comfortable with your emotions. Loved the way you let this video play through before doing your commentary over it - it meant you could appreciate the artist/song more clearly first, then appreciate the breakdown. Anyway more of this format please.

[@MrVangboi05]

YOU NEED TO DO A REACTION TO HER DEFYING GRAVITY COVER!! SHE HITS IT ALL THE WAY!! ONE OF HER BEST COVERS

[@juffee9595]

I appreciate these honest opinions so much. And I think that Marc is being very decent in his reaction. He knows she's a good singer, but as he stated. This one of his favorite songs. I'm singing this song at the moment and I totally understand where he's coming from. Some parts I totally love and I've listened to her version to take inspiration from it. For me my all time favourite is from Sara

[@thorstenmatadoerle8546]

Hi Juf, I‘ve heard and seen a lot of versions to this song. One of the „most best“ performances to me was Sarah (live) and Shoshana Beans. I personally do not compare the performances on a minute level, but more on the feeling the artist evokes in me. It‘s very important, that the artist has his own and very gentle emotion and interpretation into his performance. So it‘s not important to be perfect in any sense, it is important to be authentic to the very moment. I love to wish you to find a interpretation which suits your intimate understanding of the song.

[@jairynbullinger]

I just wanted to say that watching your videos has helped me so much grow as a performer while singing. Knowing what I have to do in order to sell the performance and also feel like you did the song justice can be hard and so thank you so much for making these videos and giving truly helpful advice

[@jamjam0221]

Marc Daniel Patrick you shoudl see her sing Akin Ka Na Lang. It's incredible

[@AmyTO0]

She made me cry. She shows too much emotions. That's most important, right ? She's not in a stage. Since there is no live audience, she just looked at the camera and not herself. She was like looking at me and I feel the pain. She just put all her emotions into the song.

[@nickmanuel8483]

More of morissette amon 😍❤❤

[@wilfredoaying930]

MORISSETTE 🇨🇦present this song is very emotional for Mori is a gift that she can sing this kind of song.another proof that her voice fits in any genre and she has that unbelievable beautiful tone and voice remarkable phenomenon no one sing like her nowadays amazing extremely talented artist extraordinary young girl no bad habits she’s a CHRISTIAN and very humble. and if she become a independent artist,she’s going to take on the music industry like a hurricane and no one can stop her. Mori talent speak for itself.Thank you Marc great reaction just subs 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

[@misskittycatcat123]

Very thorough analysis. She has an amazing voice.

[@meghanmonroe]

I just love your content. I love the way you mouth the words along with the clips and how you get as emotional as I do. If I had any talent whatsoever, I'd hope for a coach as passionate and intelligent as you! Lol okay, sorry for all the gushing. I'll put my fangirl away.

[@basiliovibes7846]

Please react to Morissette's cover of " Defying Gravity".😊

[@dantejoe]

Morí can sing better than most Broadway actors. Period.

[@asiasphoenixmorissetteamon6082]

That's my Queen❤👑

[@draconiandevil21]

It really depends on who is listening to her. If you're a fan of broadway or musical type of singing sure this reaction is good. But for some that is more of a modern-contemporary type that loves mixture of musical influences being fused in a song, this performance is more than good. You were just being honest here so no need for some hate. Peace ✌️

[@wilfredoaying930]

You said it hate i don’t want to sound rude but he did this too,of his reaction to Morissette Defying Gravity frankly this guy i don’t know him but for him to criticize an artist like Morissette it’s okay but clearly in my opinion,he thinks he is better than Mori specially this genre.he’s not honest his bias and maybe he feels embarrassed of all the feedback from his last criticism of Morissette.look there’s a lot of new reactors and vocal coach that react to Mori they started with not even more than 2000 subscribers and now they almost have 100.000 subscribers because their honest and genuinely by look of it i hope Marc has a real day job because he’s not gonna make money on his You Tube channel.I’m not just saying this because I am a fan of Morissette. I don’t how long he’s been reacting but when claiming that he is this so called expert then he better back it up. I want to see him sing this song or any Broadway.

[@draconiandevil21]

@@wilfredoaying930 I don't to he like defensive with regards to Mori coz I know that she isn't perfect. Maybe this guy went overboard as compared to previous ones but then what he speaks is just him not us believing on Mori's true talent. I just don't want to have negativity on here. Peace ✌️

[@etrnlygr8tful87]

@@wilfredoaying930 I don't think you really get what his intention is in his analysis. He has a point, his critique is delivering the song in the lens of musical theater setting...not her capabilities & talent as a singer.

Beautiful. 💯👏💯

[@AguiluzMulawin]

I love your take and honesty in your reaction.

[@yvonnehorneffer3516]

Marc, thank you for your thoughtful reaction to Morissette’s rendition but I listened to the original and I like Morissette’s version better. Given the circumstances, she sang this at the convenience of her own home during the lockdown, via zoom for her fans. This is her own interpretation of the song WITHOUT a theater coach. And you yourself reacted with tears at the end. Somehow the delivery of the song moved you. You said you always tear up when you hear this song… it is NOT the song the made you cry. It was the way it was sung and delivered by the artist that made you tear up!!!! And I am disappointed you did not acknowledge that. Listen to “Could you be Messiah” a song written by Gary Valenciano, rearranged and given to Morissette to sing.

[@chmod744]

Thanks for the reaction Marc. The slight gatekeeping is understandable as this was more of a crossover performance and, she said herself, a bit out of her comfort zone (she’s not walking through Seth’s door for an episode of Obsessed anytime soon). Although, if you consider all the songs posted in this Stages set as a whole, the quality of the performances are quite spectacular for someone who only dabbles in showtunes. Full list here for anyone interested: kzbin.info/aero/PLXIsyucEqcmEXwaPcZRCVoQHGZkW08PYX ‘Home’, ‘Memory’, ‘Someone Like You’, ‘She Used To Be Mine’, ‘I’d Give My Life For You’, and ‘Defying Gravity’. In the intro for ‘I’d Give My Life For You’ she mentioned that she had recently seen Joanna Ampil (West End star and 10th Anniversary Kim, Miss Saigon) play Jessie in the Manila production of ‘The Waitress’ so I’m sure there was some inspiration drawn from there. She refers to Joanna as ‘big sister’ (they were co-leads in an original Filipino musical together in 2015 (Chuva Choo Choo)). Morissette also has a connection to Lea Salonga as Lea was one of the coaches when she was a contestant on The Voice (Philippines) in 2013.

[@fernandoesteban2345]

Thank you coach. Your perceptive observations are truly helpful and will improve one our most talented performers. Like Lea Salonga before her, she will mature nicely in due time. I can only imagine her at the end of this decade. Well done sir.

[@iamterrence7111]

I guess less on technicality and execution theater-wise, I felt Morisette's genuineness and raw on this cover. ❤

[@gamulolauro9648]

Definitely, no doubt her vocal prowess is undeniably powerful.

[@gamulolauro9648]

You can say all those criticism if shes performing on stage. You have given that consideration. Hey why dont you give us a sample of your own version. Do it show us what youve got since youre a perfectionist.

[@jaremtakaishi8911]

True! Marc was right! It really does break the character. It makes sense why she performs better live cause she cant see herself.

I'm a Morissette fan and I really like watching reactions of her videos whether it's criticizing or complimenting her performances. Well I kinda understand that POV of yours cause Morissette is really more like a Pop/Ballad singer. Hoping to see more reactions of her🙂. I'm learning a lot from you😉.

[@obe22099]

Great video. Performer focusing on themselves isn't something i would have noticed on my own. That's a nuance i haven't heard anyone else point out but it's obviously happening.

Morisette is my favorite vocalist i would be pissed about some of your reactions but I understand you’re a theater type of person and you are being honest about morisettes performance and you know what you’re talking about and not just trying to trash her you also had a lot of positive things to say about her but because I don’t understand theater for me I enjoyed it what do I know

[@alexanderabuan5499]

Read through the comments.. enjoyed the back and forth.. more positive but a few negatives… it’s great though, everyone sharing their own opinions. I’m not educated about musical theatre so I can’t make a valid comment. I did enjoy this performance though and I actually like the musical genre now… peace and more power!

Hello Mark, I like this new format of reacting to the song as a whole first then going to the breakdown and analysis, it kinda made me feel that we are 2 friends listening to the same song at the same time then goes to discuss everything about it. This way makes it feel more casual and organic. Thank you for the great content.

[@abetskychua]

Astounding

[@Nemia1220]

I was one of your harsher critics in reviewing Mori before, but I was willing to be open to this review. Respect different points of view.

[@voicesinmyheadchannel]

9:15 I think you misunderstood that. She wasn't looking at herself. There wasn't a monitor there. She's at home. 'Twas a lock down there. Barely any equipment. It's like she was looking away as if she's looking back to something that's kind of bittersweet while telling someone about it. -- Although I know it's a hard and emotional song, there are a few moments where the character was looking back to something that WAS good. She's remembering how her life was when she was younger, before all the shit went down so there were little smiles. Idk the entire story of the waitress, but based on just the lyrics, I think she was doing just fine there. At least that's how I see it. I love this reaction by the way. Very thorough and honest 💯💯💯

This is Morrisette’s interpretation of the song, and I like it. I dont think there is a camera that she’s looking into, or when she looks like she’s looking on the side, it’s like she is thinking or imagining a certain situation and to me thats how she interprets it.
