Elizabeth Gillies and Ariana have actually been friends way before Victorious since they worked together on the broadway show 13!

Why was one of the songs in a prison or something?? I really want to know the context to that😭

[@Neon-is-Purple]

​@@vinyl_jjI'm going off from what I remember: The group decides to go on a trip and one of their friends, a food truck man takes them to his home country. But everything goes wrong. The hotel is nasty, people are weird and Trina (Tori's sis) somehow sticks herself in a suitcase cause she had nothing to do. Then Tori and the gang performs a musical ( I think) but Tori swings her feet up and her shoes swing to the president or whoever that man was that was wearing the military suit in the eye. That's why he has two eye patches. He already had one and Tori got the other 😂😂 Anyways, he then sentences Tori to prison and the gang tries to get Tori out but fails and they go to prison too. Then their teacher somehow convinces the military man to perform a show and they could leave if it was good enough. They perform the song and sneak off. The end ❤

But he omitted telling them it was a conflict country and ruled by a dictator, and they were soon sucked into a series of unfortunate events that ultimately landed them in jail. And since they wanted to go home, they concocted a plan to escape prison by organizing a talent show with the rest of the inmates.

[@phoebusapollo8365]

Honestly a lot of the songs would've felt empty without her, she couldnt do most of the runs or high notes that Ariana can do but she provided the power that they needed

[@samanthaarana2960]

1. Yes they go to karaoke a lot. The reason everyone is so hype is because most of us go to karaoke and just have fun. These characters go to a performing arts school and sound professional. 2. All I Want is Everything is a music video but the relationship is not part of the show. It has a part 2 of the music video where they do a fake flash mob for the guy as their "meet up". In the show, the song is actually used in the same special as the prison song. 3. Take a Hint was from an episode where the two girls had to hang out together, and as they're hanging out, 2 obnoxious guys start hitting on them and won't leave them alone. So they sing the song to get their point across and reject them. 4. "Where is Ariana?!" girl same. We all wanted more of her. We wanted more of everyone. The show was made for Victoria Justice, so it would've been kind of a crappy move to say "hey the other people we hired are more talented than you, so we're taking the show named after you and giving you fewer scenes and songs". The reality is the fans LOVED the ensemble and wanted it to become a more ensemble show (like Friends where everyone is equal), which it never did. As happens with many main characters, fans got sick of Tori. So everyone will complain saying Victoria Justice wasn't talented. Untrue, her voice is wonderful and she's a good lead. We just got sick of her as Tori because Tori was a boring and average character while the others were caricatures and had more interesting quirks, not to mention phenomenal vocals. [There's an episode where the characters all audition for a talent competition and the big complaint was how stellar everyone else did compared to Tori, but that was once again the whole point of the episode - they wanted someone good but relatable and easy to mold into whatever they wanted]. And obviously, Ariana Grande's vocal skill is out of this world and we know the training and intention behind so many of her runs and high notes, but again, it wasn't her show, and it's hard to make the "diva" vocalist the lead because she's not as down to earth relatable as a girl who is just a good singer and trying to figure out her wacky arts school. If memory serves, Jade got a couple of solos and Cat only ever sang duets and ensemble numbers, but I may be mistaken. 5. To reiterate everyone else's recap of the prison episode. The ensemble goes to a foreign country and performs for the chancellor. Tori's shoe comes off mid-dance (of All I Want is Everything, actually) and hits the chancellor in the eye. She gets sent to jail. Attempts at getting her free land them all in jail. They organize a performance for the chancellor where everyone sings I Want You Back, and Sound of Music style they slip out the back while everyone is distracted. Your joke was 100% spot on. This plot, to my recollection, is never addressed again in the series. 6. Ariana Grande and Liz Gillies during Give It Up was an iconic moment of the show. Firstly, because this is one of the first times we heard them really sing, so fans immediately fell in love with them both. Secondly, the girls were already best friends after having worked together on 13 the musical. So having them finally sing together was a big treat for anyone who followed them from before Victorious. I highly suggest, if you do another video, checking out more from Liz Gillies. 7. Dude with the glasses (Robbie) always has the puppet, Rex. He acts as if Rex is an actual separate person from him. Rex is basically his own character in this show. They ARE doing karaoke, not a talent contest, Rex just goes everywhere. Give It Up isn't part of a full on contest exactly, but more a personal competition against some other girls who insulted Jade & Cat after flirting with Jade's boyfriend.

[@leilanyx]

i think the issue with victoria justice is... she WAS put in an ensemble cast with people with far better voices than hers. she has a beautiful voice but it's not versatile enough or interesting like ariana's or liz's, who were both broadway trained. but she was also a bit set up imo bc of the fact all the other characters were far more interesting than tori, who plays kind of the "straight man" character.

The unfortunate thing about the first song, All I Want is Everything, is that the 'official' version here is different from what was used in the actual show--which used a lot more backing vocals, but the official version here more heavily relied on Victoria Justice as the primary vocalist.

[@-callmecrazy-5859]

The context for the prison one doesn't make it any less insane. The group went on holiday to a fictional European country at war, and in order to pay for their stay there they had to perform at the hotel. When singing the first song you heard, "All I Want Is Everything" , Tori's (Victoria Justice) shoe flies off her foot and hits the country's leader in the eye, which gets her sent to prison. When her friends are trying to persuade the leader to release her, the guy with the puppet accidentally electrocutes the leader's pet octopus, sending the rest of them to prison as well. In order to escape, they teach all the inmates to dance to that song as a distraction and are able to run out the back during a dance break to get on a truck that will get them over the border which is driven by their teacher who disguised himself as a prison guard to assist them. I swear I'm not making any of that up.

Context wise for take a hint the girls were out “bonding” for a play target were in together and they two guys wouldn’t stop hitting on them and then asked the girls to sing for them so they chose take a hint for obvious reasons. The boys look into it for a while because obviously they can’t take a hint. The prison video they were indeed in prison in a foreign country and trying to escape. I think that number was probably inspired by the prison flash mob thriller thing that happened. The guy with the puppet always has the puppet it’s his thing. They do a decent amount of karaoke just because a lot of them are singers so it’s something they do for fun.

I think the reason these songs don't sound made-for-TV is because a lot of them weren't. Victorious as a whole was kind of a stealth promotion for Victoria Justice's music, so a good number of the songs she sings in the show are songs Nickelodeon was already professionally producing for her. Ariana Grande was cast on the show as the silly airheaded best friend character. Nickelodeon did not expect her to blow up bigger than Victoria. By the time they recognized what they could've had, she was already signed to a bigger label. That's why you don't see Ariana sing a whole lot in this show, even in the later seasons. Nick doesn't own her music.

The guy with the ventriloquism dummy's name is Robbie. He always has his dummy, Rex, no matter where he is.

[@RammerHammer]

As someone who adores this show and knows it back to front, ill be the one to provide some context. In the I Want U Back performance, the reaspn theyre in prison is because the group went on a trip to a fictional country called Yerba and during a performance for the one-eyed chancellor, Trina's (Daniella Monet's character) heel comes flying off and hits the chancellor in his good eye, and while theyre trying to apologize to the now blind chancellor Robbie (Matt Bennett's character) accidentally kills the chancellor's pet so they get thrown in prison and do a Jackson 5 number as a distraction so they can escape.

[@Lolsworth]

Never ask about the puppet just accept that It’s there….constantly

[@phoebe3575]

the actual scene for begging on your knees for me is one of my fave scenes in the show, i absolutely love the friends united fuck you vibe👏🏻

[@TheProswagonist]

If you come back for more songs for the show, I'd highly recommend some of the songs that feature Leon Thomas' character. Dude is also really good and pairs with Victora super well.

[@celijne8861]

15:52, heres the explanation. They were on a free vacay to perform in a weird place. when they performed torikicked a shoe in the only working eye of the president thing, so she went to jail .. the others tried to help her but robbie dropped a lamp in the octupus aquarium of the president thing. and so they are all together in jail.

[@kittyphom]

I’m not even kidding, yesterday, after I watched the descendants video, I was thinking that you should do a reaction on VICTORIOUS songs

[@deaththegirl3371]

Freak the freak out and Okay are probs my fav songs, highly rec. Also, context for 'All I want is everything': *spoilers for that episode* They're on holiday in another country and they had to do a preformance. Tori's shoe accidentally kicks off into the Chancellors good eye, hence 2 eyepatches. They get thrown into prison and Cat joins a gang and teaches them to dance so they give another performance to get out of prison and get out the country. I think, don't fully remember tbh.

[@Cee0506]

I grew up with victorious and the songs were so good that even my parents liked watching it with me

[@kitija5272]

it's so funny to watch Matt getting confused about what is going on in the show especially when you know what is happening in the show :D

[@akanemilevski364]

It was so damn good, I remember Victorious popping on TV and the songs were bangers fr. I also loved freak the freak out which in the show was just before or after the last one. Nothing related but I just happened to watch your reactions on some kpop groups and it was fun, so I wanted to share a girl group that I really appreciate, it's called Mamamoo and its four members are all talented vocalists. So if one day u happen to consider reacting to this group I would recommend the Dingo music Killing Voice one, they perform a bunch of extracts from their songs live, it's 15 mins long and as an introduction of what their voices and style can be I think it's a pretty good start^^ Anyway love watching your videos! 🔥🤍

[@vstopbiaswreckingme7194]

oh if he reacts to mamamoo he's going to be mindblown, truely one of the most talented groups in all of kpop

[@Eclecticlly]

Context for the prison video. it was from me the Victorious movie, where they get thrown in prison in another county. I don't remember everything that happen in the movie, but I think the reason they perform is so they can escape. Another context for why the show/Movie did this was because this was after Michael Jackson died it was a tribute to him as well as, a nod to the viral youtube video of a prison in China. That made the prisoners dance to MJ for exercise and it was huge thing because they were so coordinated.

[@gigiloveyeah]

The bridge in begging on your knees ❤is a masterpiece ❤

[@Isaly15xoxo]

“Why does he got a ventriloquist dummy?”: Me, who watched the entirety of the show and knows full well, still asking that question 😂 It’s so funny to watch the reactions to shows you’ve seen, out of context 😅

[@gladyschu07]

First descendants then victorious?! Man you’re really catering to all my guilty pleasures

[@frankieholt6721]

that guy with the ventriloquist dummy is robbie. the dummy is rex and is present for the whole show (rlly confusing tho bc apparently he’s not a “puppet” and has spoken without robbie being in control so idk how that makes sense since the universe is the same as ours) so ya it was a karaoke thing not a talent contest!

[@GlitterF-CK]

The actress who plays jade also sings the most iconic songs from winx club

[@yurikatsuki]

You missed another banger from this show which is "Freak the Freak Out", and the main theme "Make It Shine". Also, you should listen to Victoria's new music as an independent artist. It's called "Only A Stranger", really different from her Victorious sound, but it's really good too.

[@spraticstudios8651]

The entire video I was crossing my fingers hoping you would listen to the song "Give It Up" and when you said its name I CHEERED!!! Ariana and Liz's voices are SO GOOD!!! Their characters in the show are usually supposed to pushed to the side in favor of Victoria's character but this was one of the few times we could see their talent without Tori "outshining" them (even though she got a song in the episode too called "Freak the Freak Out" which was supposed to be the grand finale). TBH even as a kid I enjoyed "Give It Up" way more than Tori's song. Plus! Fun Fact: The song "Give It Up" was actually inspired by the song "Lady Marmalade." I like to think of it as its PG sister lol

[@alleyred2803]

In Locked! After Tori's shoe malfunction, she is accused of assaulting the chancellor of Yerba. Sent straight to jail for her obvious crimes, there seems no way out, until some unexpected help arrives.

[@BAChambers-235]

17:17 Petition to give Andrew headphones!

[@daringroses]

Please, there needs to be a part two of this🙏🏾🥺🥺

[@eline_van_dijk]

Also, yes, the last song is a karaoke. They were battling with two other girls who was better and could have the bar or something like that. There wasn't a lot of karaoke in the show, so it was just coincidence you picked 2 karaoke songs. The show actually is about a high school for kids with special talents. Tori (Victoria Justice) fills in at a performance when her sister's tongue swells up. Her sister was supposed to do the show. After that she gets offered a spot in the school where she becomes friends with Robbie, Cat, Jade, Beck and Andre. The show mostly follows them through school as crazy things happen to them. Like, there was one episode about method acting where they wrote each other's characters and had to go to the house of their Drama teacher mr. Sikowitz and keep playing their part for a full day and night or the episode where they had to give up their phone for as long as they could. My personal favorite was the 'Breakfast Club' episode where they did the whole Breakfast Club thing, except making the characters fit the Victorious characters. Another favorite of mine was their crossover episode to ICarly. The show is actually pretty fun and amusing and even as an adult I sometimes just go back and watch it.

[@yoghurtie]

give it up is still one of my fav songs, i often listen to it because their voice just fits together so well. by the way the prison kinda thing was an episode where they vent on a vacation and they have to perform every night to be there at no cost, and tori's (victoria justice) shoe flew away the to the eye of the guy who was wearing two eye patch (he was some kind of president in that country) and thats why they get into jail, and as you can see they escaped by doing another perfomance. (english is not my first language, sorry if i misspell something, or write something thats not understandable ^^)

[@crownmagus8291]

I love Elizabeth Gillies voice in my opinion she is the most talented singer in the cast and should have had more chances to sing.

[@paigeloves5SOS]

the "i want you back" performance is from one of the episodes where they went on a trip and they end up getting arrested for blinding the chancelor

[@lana9043]

Fun fact: when ariana and liz were singing Give It Up, they were also singing live so it wouldn't be awkward for the audience

[@StrawberryWaffer]

11:05 it’s okay I didn’t realize ‘take a hint’ was from Victorious

[@siljaravens]

I wanted to go to Hollywood arts so bad as a kid. Still do if I’m being honest

[@MetaLatias5]

Victorious is basically about performance, musically or otherwise, it takes place at a school of arts (which I'd think is higher than High School? Not sure though as I'm not American) and the main character gets accepted at the school for her singing performance I'd honestly advice you watch the first episode or something The show gets pretty crazy at times, like most of its predecessors (like Drake & Josh, Zoey 101 or iCarly), so yeah, they did perform in a prison of some kind in order to escape XD Also, the two guys they were singing at in the "Take a Hint" song are a pair of guys that were hitting on them relentlessly that evening, thus their choice of song to try and tell them off once and for all, though you can see throughout the song that it still takes them quite a while to get the hint X'D

[@shorkelili]

Matthew.... I don't know how to describe the prison scene to you without it sounding absolutely mental, but they ARE in prison, and the reason is because they accidentally blinded the dictator of that country, while performing, because someone's high heel flew off the stage and into his eye😭 and the reason they're performing is to try and escape

[@Normalweebmaybe]

It was Tori's shoe that flew off

[@DerekThomasLirio]

The song where they look like they're in prison, if I remember correctly, they were in a foreign country and injured the president or something, that's why the guy has eye patches. I watched Victorious many years ago, but I believe that's the context of this particular scene.

[@truebornseeker9767]

Was ‘take a hint’ created for VICTORIOUS????? *THAT WAS HALF OF MY NIGHTCORE PHASE, AND I NEVER KNEW*
