Singer/Songwriter reacts to FROZEN 2 - SHOW YOURSELF (IDINA MENZEL) - FOR THE FIRST TIME!

[@coffeetailor]

The line "you are the one you've been waiting for" gets me every single time. It's like the first movie was about loving and trusting your family and friends and working together with them, and the second movie was loving and trusting your own strength to stand apart as well.

[@5foot2eyesofblue13]

I tear up at that line every time. Into The Unknown is an amazing song, but honestly, Show Yourself is the best song in either movie.

[@laurameemsrn1792]

YES - and that is what makes it so powerful!! Because it's such a hard thing to do - especially for Elsa who was always afraid of hurting someone...she finally realizes she can be who she is and not hide anymore...she can - "SHOW HERSELF". LOL. But your point is spot on!

[@jessicagoldberg7051]

Same 😭

[@Shimmernist]

I cry every time to it, it hits so hard emotionally. 💙

[@stevensobieralski2125]

2nd 1st move

[@DisneyFanatic2364]

When her mom shows up, I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME! Everyone talks about "Into the Unknown," but this is the song that really fits me in the feels!

[@deannatreat6819]

Same!

[@sososlugg1423]

You know me too. What got me was when all the images showed around her. I was like " oh my god that's her life. When she was born, when Anna was born, when they played together with her powers. When the accident happened and everything that happened after that including the death of their parents and then the girl she saw, that was her mom." And this has to be my favorite of the Frozen songs. I like it more then Let it go.

[@maxpride5584]

“You’re the one you’ve been waiting for” hits me so hard every time

[@carlosalejandroalvarenga4913]

I remember watching it in theaters and this scene had me in a pool of my own tears

[@Zodia195]

Yeah this is one of the few movies to make me cry in the movie theater and it's this part right here. This moment elevated Elsa to being the most relatable Disney char for me because her journey from the first movie to this one, it's my journey just minus the magic stuff lol. The line that hit me the hardest was this, "I've always been so different, normal rules did not apply." That's when the tears started to appear. The only other movies I can think of that made me cry are the following- The Last Unicorn, Titanic, The Lion King, Land Before Time, and An American Tail.

[@vanyspike90]

Show Yourself is so underrated. Best song of the movie, not only Frozen 2 but all of the Frozen songs. Unpopular opinion, this to me is way more better than Let it go, that is huge, but Show yourself.... chills and tears.

[@nicanproud]

I cry with this song for sure

[@chelyseabrams9902]

The emotional impact of this song had me in a chokehold for about a week. I was like "What's wrong with me"

[@laurameemsrn1792]

I agree 100% - this is the absolute best Frozen song - both movies AND the Broadway show - although Monster and Colder by the Minute from the Broadway show are both close behind!

[@KeeperOfUntoldDreams]

It's one of my top 10 favorite Disney songs I've ever heard.

[@timefliesaway999]

It definitely is not underrated lmao

[@llc358]

"You are the one you've been waiting for all of your life" makes me want to cry every single time

[@kaydenceplays5152]

Ikr it’s so beautiful

[@ln9256]

Like a BABY. I can literally listen to it twice in a row and cry even harder the second time 😂😭

[@MamaRavenwood]

The fact that her mom knew of this place and used it to leave her baby one last message of encouragement just gets me every time!

[@lequang9257]

it's so beautiful!!! it's always heart warming to find something that other person left for you, let alone your mother

[@michaelburge7279]

Dude, I'm a grown man and I absolutely BELT out frozen songs. They slap. Don't apologize or justify liking any music. Good video! Edit: I'd love to see your take on "The Next Right Thing" from this movie as well. Talk about not pulling punches.

[@heatherhogan6652]

The next right thing makes me cry every time I sing it... yet I keep doing it. 😭💔

[@Cordaran]

i love a lot of a of the Disney songs. Think most of my favorites are from the Tarzan movie. Also for those that say Disney movies are for kids, I pity you for not enjoying life enough. Nothing wrong with grown adults enjoying kids movies/old cartoon shows.

[@thanossnap4170]

@@Cordaran I agree on both points :) I enjoy Disney movies as much now (if not more), as i did 20 years ago. Also the Tarzan soundtrack is an absolute banger! Phil Collins didn't need to go that hard, but he did. And man am i glad he did.

[@CinemaSongscovers]

This Is the Thanks I Get from WISH (which I haven't seen the entirety of) is kind of a "guilty pleasure" for me. I've listened to its other songs too, but I like it the best. Even if it does say the same thing twice in one line, just using different words. "I let you live here for free, and I don't even charge you rent."

[@tatewakinew]

I love how Idina Menzel is able to give just enough force to her to her singing and grow it to culmination - what many cover singers often lack.

[@emilyg.8155]

That song always gets me. I cry every time! The words are so powerful and can apply to our lives - “YOU are the one you’ve been waiting for…” lean into yourself, embrace YOU!

[@bartonbagnes4605]

Aurora sang the high background vocal, and sings her own version of "Into The Unknown". A lot of people will suggest "Into The Unknown", which is good and has a lot of great covers of it, Acapop Kids did one for example. However I suggest you check out "Lost In The Woods" and "When I Am Older", both are less serious and so much fun.

[@lorismith5195]

Lost in the Woods!! I saw the movie in the theater and that took a bit to process. I wasn’t sure what to make of it at first. Whether to laugh, or feel bad.

[@joshlewis8860]

If you like covers of these Disney songs, I recommend giving Caleb Hyles a listen here on KZbin. I especially like his cover of Show Yourself and Let It Go

[@Robotneonunicorn]

Aurora’s cover is so beautiful!

[@heyjude9895_]

I don’t think I’ve ever cried in theatre before watching a Disney movie but holy crap. The “I am found”??? And then harmonizing with her mother? I bawleddd

[@hannahhester8376]

This song made me BAWL my eyes out when I first watched it. Best song in the Frozen franchise, period.

[@jaceesrom449]

OK, if anyone gives you the eyes of disapproval for watching Disney movies, just ignore them. Tell me, do kids make Disney movies? Do kids write the songs and make the animation? No! Adults are the teamwork that makes the dream work! We take what we have from childhood and use them as adults to create something new! That's why Disney has a special place in my heart. And Brad, you gotta watch Frozen II!!! It's worth seeing!

[@luwirap]

I think Adults should've start to realize by now that animations aren't just for kids anymore. These things are marketed for kids to push their parents to consume the materials and creators made somethings in there for parents and adults to enjoy too. I dont know why we have to always remind people that here we are adult 20 something watching a Disney movie like you are going to be labeled as a big baby if you dont... Soul, Encanto and Inside Out, these are movies that an adult would definitely appreciate and if you are an adult who didnt get those messages, then you are a baby.

[@matthewb9621]

Thank you for not screaching your opinion like a banshee. I really liked your reaction. I subscribed.

[@millieboon]

Show yourself is definitely the best song from both movies

[@sweetsrspicy]

Luv your reactions to the disney songs! Another from Frozen 2 is "Into the unknown", luv the message it sends and its just as amazing. Thank you for ur songs as well!

[@Yoriichi_Sengoku]

This is actually Show Yourself x All Is Found, and the transition always gives me goosebumps. You'll understand why if you watched the movie full for the first time.

[@TriXJester]

Its insane how much power Idina can fit into her tiny body.

[@aleshakant]

When the choir comes in, I cry every time!!

[@sososlugg1423]

Hey I'm 31 and I am a die hard Disney fan. Nothing will ever break me of that. I will continue to love it even when I get to be a ripe old age.

[@PapaGohn]

Everyone in the comments is saying that everyone always recommends "Into the Unknown" but everywhere I've seen "Show Yourself" is the favourite, like it's not really underrated, everyone who's heard it loves it

[@Robotneonunicorn]

I get chills every time! Idina and Aurora have such magical voices!

[@anyastar8]

Just a trivia. It's actually Idina and Evan Rachelwood singing

[@katherinewang3466]

I've listened to this song over and over for at least 10 times, and "I am found" literally tears me down EVERY SINGLE TIME :'000

[@layyx.x_]

the lines "come to me now open your door< dont make me wait one moment more" gives me goosebumps and also when her mother shows up and the lines "ah ah ah ah" this song is very underrated for a disney song.

[@tarsha8816]

Never apologise for loving Disney.. Disney is the best and I love that there is something for all that watch their movies.. I think Show Yourself is one of the best songs of this movieI tear up every time I hear this song… I know that Into the Unknown was the song that they pushed as the song of the movie (at least in Australia it was - not sure about other countries l)… but I felt that Show Yourself should have been the song for the movie.. I will admit that Into the unknown I do find irritating at times..

[@jessiamedeiros4294]

The softness and power in this song is unmatched. Idina has many flaws but the softness she can emulate in her voice that goes right into raw power is very hard to emulate. This song and clip is so well made. The part "You are the one you've been waiting for" always draws some tears from my eyes. It's so powerful.

[@kelseymcqueary8084]

This is my absolute favorite Elsa song. I wish more recognized. Everytime her Mom comes in I get chills. It’s such an awesome self acceptance song, finding who you are, inspirational, etc.

[@davidthieman8020]

Thank you, Brad, for your reaction to Frozen 2, the song Show Yourself, and the amazing voice of Idina Menzel.

[@sereneblossom2951]

Everytime i listen to this song I just get goosebumps all over man

[@TherealDoris]

Me tooooo

[@oddeyes9413]

As a person whose dealt with mental illness and a lot of other things this songs hit different.

[@drock55551]

I'm a 35yo man, and I'll watch the hell out of some Disney! No shame! Helps that I have a 3yo daughter, too.

[@oserus999]

She has such a beautiful voice.

[@angelenapulis9083]

I have listened to this song so many times, and I still cried during this video. It's a masterpiece.

[@justlike1olivia]

i watched both movies in the cinema this was probably my favorite moment out of the movies when the music really kicked in it was just magical i still get goosebumps every time

[@awakehades66]

This is the reason I love Disney movies. The music and the message is always so strong

[@Endlesshadowsxoxo]

This song makes me cry every time lol

[@angelareolalas9119]

So underated when I first heard this I started balling everything about the song killed me

[@tammymoseley1348]

The best song from this movie is Next Right Thing. It's not one that got the attention because it's a lot more raw. But it's so important to hear and I'm so glad they didn't "lose" it on the cutting room floor.

[@meggsy82]

I was just going to say this! It brings me to tears every time. Kristen really conveyed the emotions beautifully.

[@bluewaterdragon4070]

I totally agree. This song is the best from Frozen 2 and one of the best songs Disney ever made. It's so deep, serious and unlike other songs from Disney movies

[@stitchesandstaples]

God that song hit the feels hard.

[@mycroft16]

That one hurts to watch. Legitimately. And never gets easier. Extreme hats off to her for being able to sing that song that way.

[@bethelliot7140]

It is a very incredible movie! 😍😍🤗 Please check out all the songs from Frozen 2

[@katherinewhite210]

This song brings me to tears every time!

[@wibbly8011]

Always makes me cry especially “you are the one you’ve been waiting for all of your life”. What’s funny is they kinda advertised an earlier song “into the unknown” as the new “Let it Go” keeping this one under wraps. But your are right definitely the new “Let it Go.” Also if you haven’t don’t into the unknown it is great. And Anna has a heart wrenching number that I can’t remember the name of

[@circuitgamer7759]

I love that even without the context for the reprise of the lullaby it's still amazing. It's even better when you know that and have the context, but this song is amazing in every single moment :)

[@Gabbie135]

Love the singing intro and love the CM Punk shirt!

[@michaelplano6941]

The other singer is Evan Rachel Wood who was in the Beatles musical “Across the Universe” and plays Delores Abernathy in HBO’s “Westworld”.

[@aggiegalletly9835]

This whole soundtrack gives me goosebumps, glad someone else agrees

[@breezy3392]

Elsa singing with her mother brings tears every time

[@EnderKichi]

Honestly this is the best Frozen song imo, Let it Go is so good, but Show Yourself is just incredible soundtrack composition.

[@erikagholston6610]

I’m always singing Disney song. They touch you no matter how old you are. And as you grow the message changes to you from when you were a child.

[@jaimer5657]

Found you randomly. Disney plus has a making of frozen 2. This song is discussed plus more. But it makes me appreciate this song more. Worth a watch. I want to say it is like a 7 part series.

[@UnpibeenamoradodeElsa]

This song is so underrated, for me, a masterpiece, thanks for this reaction 💙

[@lizzzzzz4121]

Me and my friends actually did this song in a winter concert for my musical theatre class at school and the song was split into parts so me and friends could sing it each part would be what matched our vocals and it was really good and one of my friends could actually do the high Ah’s that was near the beginning of the song

[@omegasteve8485]

5:33 is my favorite vocal part of the song, the way she says born is amazing My favorite visual part is how she burst open the pillars blocking the entrance as the beat drops

[@Traci2000]

I actually think Frozen 2 is better than the first one. Way better, actually. The songs and story telling are pretty great

[@hilarymajor3983]

Me too. I like the music and the more complex story in Frozen 2.

[@markriches2464]

Mate got a 4 year old daughter so I know these inside out! Also again awesome Shirt!!! BEST IN THE WORLD!!!

[@katiewindolf1807]

This moment of the movie for me was like when Clark Kent enters the fortress of solitude and comes out Superman. That plus disney princess musical magic. One of my favourite film moments ever.

[@elitettelbach4247]

This song is seriously so good! You're right that a lot of the Disney soundtracks are more mature.

[@lorimandle]

“Are you the one I’ve been looking for all of my life?” This guy: “Yeah”

[@chelsearuppel]

Frozen 1 was on broadway and now tours and shows in other countries ( not New York )! It's one of my greatest dreams to star as Elsa in Frozen 2 on Broadway or live top production. It has been such a big part of my journey and i connect with her story and the story of Frozen & Frozen 2 so so much. These movies to me are so powerful and healing for the world. Thank you for sharing your gifts! I just found your channel and love your energy :) Enjoyed watching this

[@zoew_]

yeah this was hands down my fav from the movie! into the unknown was the one that popped off from this. its good but this one is my fav

[@lorismith5195]

Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. The most amazing writing couple ever. 🥰 Now listen to Into the Unknown. 😊

[@eristineforever6934]

Disney’s Frozen became a Broadway. It also went on tour and performed in places like Japan, Germany (I think), and London. You should check out the OBC recording of the Broadway and react to Live performances of songs from the show. Here are some songs from it - * Dangerous to Dream * What Do You Know About Love? * Monster * Colder by the Minute * Hygge * I Can’t Lose You

[@lunarebear]

who is going to tell him how dark frozen 2 was because they wanted to grow with the kids who watched the first one

[@JMcCarthyworld]

this is literally my favorite disney movie. it is so powerful and important.

[@BrynnBanksss]

chills. actual chills.

[@mycroft16]

This is an exceptionally well written piece of music. The layering of instruments as the song gets more complex, and more powerful echoing Elsa's confidence growing through the lyrics. Allowing the words "Show Yourself" to speak for themselves without any music and then to echo the syllables with followup musical beats. Throwing syncopation in there for a bit with what she is singing. Key changes are always powerful moments in a song... and then to realize that it goes from Elsa thinking she is looking for someone else... and really all she ever needed was to accept herself... to show herself. You are the one you've been waiting for. I love movies from every studio out there... but Disney has an extremely talented group of writers, artists and musicians and they absolutely know how to get to the core issue of a story that hits everyone in the feels in some way. It's unfair. I'm also extremely annoyed that this is NOT the piece from the movie that got all the public attention from Disney. They promoted Into the Unknown as the big number. Maybe to avoid spoilers or something, I don't know. It's catchy and fun, represents a turning point, but Show Yourself is powerful. Like you said, it's the stand up in your seat and cheer song.

[@jackson2308]

This song is objectively more powerful and more emotional than Into The Unknown. This is Frozen 2s Let It Go 100%

[@eristineforever6934]

The only songs I love from Frozen 2 are - * Somethings Never Change * Into the Unkown * Show Yourself

[@hannahhester8376]

There was actually a deleted scene where Elsa gave Anna a message from her parents too. I really wish they'd kept it in.

[@FujoshiKira]

The Frozen Musical has a lot of gems! Monster and I Can’t Lose You are some of my faves.

[@fatalapathy2454]

You should do Lost in the Woods in Frozen II. It's Kristoff's big number. They did a great job writing a song to match his character.

[@Rini1909]

Don't apologize for liking Disney. Disney is an amazing group of grown men and women who make these amazing movies and music for us. It always looks like it is for kids on the surface but there are so many deep meanings in all of them. U gained a new subscriber! Nice reaction 👌

[@Crash7031]

Great reaction you should react to Into The Unknown from this movie there is also a Panic at the Disco cover of Into the unknown both are fantastic.

[@Andrey_Vakov]

Dude I love the way you understand the song’s meaning. The way you explain it to us and shit. I am just happy I found your channel ❤

[@DC21NY]

Disney has some of the best songs that is only really appreciated by adults

[@kevinquant3532]

When all my mental health issues gets a bit though i come to this song, cause i think it all comes from holding my moms hand at her last breath at me being 19 and her the young age of 54. So whenever i feel done with life I need a picker upper I just need my mom. I LOVE this song, especially since we got to see frozen 1, but did not get to see frozen 2 together

[@camillecomeau6939]

Actually, it's more like middle of act II. But the ending is really something. I cried watching that song again (and I watched it already so many times). You should watch "Into the Unknown" that has the Dies Irae too. And the final "The Next Right Thing" which means so much to anyone who feel they lost everything and they don't have the strength to continue.

[@1996jacksparrow]

Fun fact/ this song was almost cut completely because no one could agree on the “ path “ for the song. To me, it’s the best song in the movie and the fact it couldn’t be as popular as into the unknown because of spoilers is a real shame.

[@simonevandermerwe4445]

i'd suggest checking out "into the unknown" next.. that's the Let It Go of the second movie lol (also consider checking out panic! at the disco's version.. *INSANE* vocals)

[@lunarose698]

This song gives me chills because Elsa finally gets the answer she's been waiting for about her power.

I cry every single time I hear this. To me its that good... However in hindsight it doesn't take a lot for me to cry so....

[@pepsie7225]

i am brazilian and most of the songs translations just got me i will never complain about how we dub the disney movies but show yourself lost so much power its my fav disney song so far and i miss a lot of the meaning in portuguese the line you are the one you've benn waiting for man that just put so much of me toggether sometimes its actually insane how a kids movie makes me feel everything

[@Balladenkind]

I would like to recommend the german version, Willemijn Verkaik‘s voice is another level although I really love Idina. Willemijn also sang the Netherlands version because it is her heritage.

[@elainehardison5527]

Adore this song, but you should really hear The Next Right Thing. Kristen Bell does not get enough credit for her performance of this song. Raw emotion. Great.

[@Steevee5k]

It took the filmmakers the longest of time to come up with the final idea that the voice calling Elsa throughout the film would be the one of her deceased mother. It was literally a last minute decision.

[@jeremyhelquist]

A vocal group, I believe you enjoy, Voctave, has an amazing cover of this. No video of a performance yet, just the song off their most recent album. 😊

[@cwm8565]

This song broke me like nothing Disney has done musically since their Renaissance era

I'm 35 and I still love Disney movies!

[@yasminpereira5411]
