SUPERFRUIT Reaction | “The Promise"

[@donny1960]

Of all the "fans" of Scott and Mitch, it was you and your reaction to this I was waiting for. Because you are the "heart" of the fandom. Thank you for this and all your reactions to Superfruit and Pentatonix.

[@RobReactor]

This may be the nicest comment I've ever gotten, thank you!

[@theeerieworldofkaos7309]

Joe...you said it perfectly.

[@trulymaite4182]

Yes! Couldn’t agree more! Thank you Rob 💗💗💗

[@MrLaaylor]

You are so cute! I love watching these with you!

[@antguy4787]

Joe Vece it’s so cute, I had the same reaction

[@brianpowell2588]

Hi there. I'm not normally someone who comments on videos. I just wanted to say thank you. You are actually probably my favorite reactor I've seen. You're not over the top and you seem like such a sincere person and like someone people would look up too. Thank you for creating. And thank you for showing me a beautiful song i haven't heard before. Please stay safe Nd thank you again.

[@RobReactor]

Thank you for those kind words, Brian.

[@tampazeke4587]

The original came out in the 80's when I was in college. When in Rome was the group that sang it.

[@anessalyn1035]

Mitch bouncing and that smile, you know hes loving it. This is so very incredible. That look of awe on your face when it started. You crying made me cry. Bless your heart Rob..I give the video a thumbs up but I give you one to if this keyboard would let me. But I send you hug for such a great reaction as always. OH that look though that Mitch and Scott give each other just shows who they are to each other and it is SPECTACULAR~cant wait to see your reaction to PTX SOUND OF SILENCE

[@antguy4787]

Anessa Lyn he should love it! He’s literally so amazing, Mitch is my life

[@WizardPandora]

We have the Mitch bounce.... A sign he likes this song I love the 80s vibe, I was shocked when I realized they were covering this song, I remember the original when it came out, I was 8 lol

[@RobReactor]

Bouncy Mitch is EVERYTHING!

[@adiarainfoster]

I was in my tweens. I adored this song then and I adore this version of it too. They did an excellent job! ♥

[@srslyboomer]

Aw Rob - your reactions always humble me. We have a saying at our house, "Honor your tears - they're just a sign that you're letting yourself feel the Universe, and your heart is too big for your body". Thank you, so so much, for sharing your huge heart with all of us out here on the internets.

[@cazlaming]

I can’t wait for your reactions to pentatonix the sound of silence, that is a beautiful cover too

[@Launibu]

I love their version of this. The ice skating adds so much to this video...beautiful

[@soranonsese6273]

what is this cover song?

[@margretrosenberg420]

This one is bittersweet. Beautiful song, beautiful video, beautiful sentiment, and it was the end of SuperFruit. Just remember, SuperFruit may be gone, but Mitch and Scott are still there, for each other and for us. They're just moving on to other projects, like Scott's single, "Mars."

[@calipidgious]

As soon as I heard the opening to the song I remembered it 'from back in the day' as well. There is something lovely to experiencing a favorite song twice at different seasons of life. ;-)

[@RobReactor]

Right?! What a lovely way to look at it!

[@sweetphilsugarhill]

Great video as always... the Premiere was so much fun!

[@RobReactor]

Thank you for getting up early on your day off!

[@blacksoulsaint8345]

You cry too much... stahp... you'll make me cry 😢😢😭😭😭 honestly, this song is easily one of my favorites and your reaction is so pure ❤❤❤💓💓💓

[@Gem_Guilford]

You are just so sweet Rob!!!!! 💛🧡❤💜💙💚 You TOTALLY MELTED my heart!!!!! #superfruit @superfruit This is the BEST REACTION VIDEO EVER!!! My 80's songs would have to be..... Every Breath You Take by, The Police 1983, When Doves Cry, by Prince 1984 and Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) by, Eurythmics 1983.... xoxoxo

[@angelonmyside]

I only had a few cassette singles, but the one I played until I thought the tape was going to break was "More Than Words" by Extreme. I would LOVE to see SF cover it. It's just the two guys and a guitar. It came out the year I graduated high school and my car (a 77 or 78 Oldsmobile) had an cheap cassette radio (my dad put it in after I got the car, it didn't have a radio in it... my guess is that a previous owner had an expensive radio put in it the removed it when selling it). I played that "More Than Words" cassette so much that I can still - all these years later - sing every word of that song by heart.

[@wickedpissa]

Rob, you R one beautiful sole‼️ your heart is so full & your emotions are right there on the surface, you, like me can not hold them in. I’m 54 and in luv with Superfruit 💗 Never change my friend, Keep on keeping on. 🎶🎶💖 Karyn 😎

[@physicslady1678]

oh, and my dream 80s song for them to do is "I Melt With You" by Modern English

[@RobReactor]

Nice one!

[@jtownkjdj1]

One of my favorite songs!

[@jtownkjdj1]

One of my all-time favorites!

[@physicslady1678]

We don't mind you watching it again...I'm pretty sure we all did the same thing when we saw it the first time!

[@janerubeo8318]

You will need even more tissues after "The Sound of Silence"!!! But "the Promise" is so beautiful!!

[@timothy3848]

Its so good to see that People's still get Touch by music ❤

[@cazlaming]

I was waiting for yours and Phil’s reactions. I love this song and it speaks so much of Mitch and Scott’s friendship it’s so beautiful the way they took this song on it made me kind of emotional too. Adam has incredible talent I maybe British and team GB but I have so much respect for Adam and I find him funny in interviews, he’s such a character

[@maggiemccauslin1084]

they've been friends for 16 long years

[@cazlaming]

Maggie McCauslin that’s true. It’s awesome to have a friendship with someone that long wish I had a friendship like that for that long

[@samsolace]

You gave me so much joy with your reaction just now. These three beauties were perfect, I agree. I remember both this song and Sound of Silence when they came out.

[@hoolahoops2112]

Oh God! I dont know how you'll react to this one. But I am now even more excited to see your reaction to Sound of Silence. It's been almost 2 days that I listened to it and I am still shaking with the after shocks.

[@janetranslates]

Sorry. I keep coming back. And from the 80s--I would crawl a mile on my hands and knees to get Superfruit to do anything by Air Supply. Mitch would be Russell Hitchcock, of course, and Scott would be Graham Russell, and I would die and go to heaven. Back to "The Promise," though--my two favorite moments are when Scott and Mitch stare into each other's eyes (4:15) and when Adam skates around and between them (5:39 & ff, and 6:19). Somebody please tell me that really happened, not just in the editing room.

[@RobReactor]

Anything by Air Supply would be amazing! You picked out three of my favorite moments from the video! Another of my favorites, even though it may just be great editing, is when Adam starts to spin and the video cuts to Mitch spinning at around 4:43. It's so well done!

[@curalove]

Great reaction! You never disappoint. I would love to see them do some Tears For Fears. A great duo covering a great duo.

[@jamescurfman3284]

That would be EPIC! YES!

[@calipidgious]

When you said you thought you were the only person in the world who liked that song made me think of a song I remember from back in the day that no one else seems to remember. Black Coffee in Bed by Squeeze. Do you remember that one? I don't know that it was a huge favorite but I do at least remember it and remember it being a little bit of a bop. I'd LOVE to see them do a whole album of 80s covers. Ones you don't always hear about anymore though. Like In a Big Country, maybe some Simple Minds, The Human League, Crowded House, Madonna, Simply Red, Billy Joel, Ace of Base, Tears for Fears, etc. So many amazing possibilities!

[@RobReactor]

Love Squeeze!

[@ms.laperry8106]

It blows all our minds, it's so beautiful and Adam is amazing. George Michael's Careless Whisper or Father Figure. Something by Michael Jackson or Prince.

[@RobReactor]

UGH, Father FIgure! Can you imagine?

[@ms.laperry8106]

@@RobReactor Ikr I would lose my mind.

[@gsusan11]

I vote for careless whisper! They would be amazing with that song!

[@LadyDoe17]

Wham!s I’m your Man! That would be brilliant!..💕

[@BrotherJohn8]

Though technically 90s (just barely) but still in the late 80s synth pop milieu, I'd love to hear them cover Jane Child's "Don't Wanna Fall in Love"...Scott and Mitch would KILL the vocals on it!

[@jamescurfman3284]

YES!

[@annjean9]

Same, same, same! I knew you'd understand, I've been waiting for this reaction. This is one of my favorite songs and the second I read those lyrics I was beside myself with anticipation. Beautifully done beyond expectation, and Adam Rippon has a new fan as well. ( p.s. I had the cassingle 💖)

[@wmercer3]

You are simply a joy to watch...I am almost always smiling through tears watching your videos...the best!!!

[@ruthwendell1852]

just put in on a loop and sit back. never knew the original but this one is so epic. LOVE IT

[@jamielane3371]

You’re still my favorite reactor, hands down. This was lovely, as always

[@RobReactor]

Thank you, Jamie ♥

[@dawnjohnson4869]

I clued my sister in on Adam Rippon. She loves this cover and now admits to crushing on Adam. Then she told me about your reaction video. We just keep sharing the love. Thanks for this. I'm searching more Superfruit!

[@mariethemagnificent2000]

I loved the original. Class of ‘89. I was so happy they did this one. My first several views I sobbed. That one look they give each other...tears. Adam’s choreography was stellar. His extensions with his arms was spectacular.

[@cherrireid9605]

Stunning...Breathtaking! Our beautiful boys knocked out of the park! Their voices and harmony...wow! I can’t count how many times I’ve watched it and still tear up. Adam’s skating just brings it to another level! Thank you for sharing.❤️

[@rinmorinzumofu]

I'm with you ...I have a list of 80's songs lol. I loved this song when it came out in 1988. Loved your reaction! Don't you want me - Human League Just Like Heaven - The Cure Modern Love - David Bowie Thats just a start LOL

[@RobReactor]

UGH! Great list!

[@jlkrsy2011]

Hi Rob, Julie here. Yours was the reaction I was waiting for and you did not disappoint. I had the same initial reaction to watching their video for the first time. Oh how I wish I could just hug you (promise I'm not weird lol). Thank you for watching it twice.

[@RobReactor]

Hugs aren't weird :)

[@jlkrsy2011]

@@RobReactor Okay good, hugs hugs hugs. My dream 80s song for them to cover would be U2's With or without you - OR - Duran Duran's Come Undone. Next reaction needs to be Pentatonix Sound of Silence.

I knew you were holding back. I get the same way when something moves me emotionally. you are such a sweet person. I enjoyed this right with you as i'm an 80's kid.

[@izabelafutyma9342]

I love watching your reactions. I was crying with you

[@mikchanclas]

OMG AN 80s COVER ALBUM WOULD BE AMAZING! My top pick would be my all time favorite song "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" by Whitney Houston

[@aprilmarket3217]

The whole time you were talking at the beginning of this video I was thinking "I'm so glad I'm not the only person here not to old to remember having to manually flip your own tapes over to hear the other side" lol. Now I don't feel so ancient, thanks for the memories Rob!! 💜

[@snapdoc]

Yes! They would do a fantastic job with “A Little Respect” by Erasure! In that vein, how about “Only You” by Yaz, or was that one just Alison Moyet?

[@ptxcolleen2393]

Watching you cry through the first and sing along through the second filled me with joy. You know I love you, don't you, Rob?

[@constitutionalrepublic1966]

Out of everyone in these group’s (Superfruit and Pentatonix), I love Mitch the most because of his sensitivity and vocal range to everything.

I just love your reactions to Superfruit and Pentatonix! This was a great arrangement of this song! Mitch and Scott sing so well with each other. Simply beautiful!

[@AXelaYrrag]

Hi, Rob. It's been a long time since I commented, although I still watch nearly all of your videos. I saw your reaction before I saw the original video, so I got to react to this one right along with you. I agree with you completely. This was perfect. I didn't remember the song from the title, although as soon as it started, I remembered it. I'm apparently 8-10 years older than you if you were in college in the late 80s (i graduated college in the early 80s). My first cars had 8-track players. Cassettes were a step up. LOL hmmmm ... songs from the 80s .... When Doves Cry or Kiss or anything from the Purple Rain album, Sweet Dreams (are Made of This), anything from George Michael; I know Ptx did Take on Me, but wouldn't a Superfruit version be amazing. Speaking of Ptx, I am anxiously awaiting your reaction to The Sounds of Silence along with all your fans. Now to go watch the official video about a million times.....

[@RobReactor]

Yes to all of this but... George Michael! Yes! Yes! Yes! Also, I wouldn't mind a cover of Prince's "7"! I've always loved the acapella start and harmonies of that song!

Hi Rob. Can't wait to see you again. You are FABULOUS! I am in awe with this amazing cover and video from our boys. Destroyed is a good description. I too go back to ca-singles and even 45s. Sooooo many on my 80s wishlist for them but I'll go with Tears for Fears Head over Heels. 👠 Oh this is Wayne from the pool at Pentacon.

[@jchetrick1]

I think that I would have to say that no 80s cover album would be complete without a track from Wham (Wham Rap or A Different Corner) and a George Michael track (I Want Your Sex or Father Figure). And possibly Whitney Houston's Greatest Love of All.

Love this song, I listened to the original after hearing Superfruit's version. Not much of a difference, but yet Superfruit's version is much more beautiful. It got me all choked up when I listened to it, too. Now, someone help me on this, aren't all of Superfruit's other songs originals? Is this the first cover that they've done?

[@oliviaangieschmitt7214]

laura aguilar This is the first cover Superfruit has done an Official Video for I believe. Their covers have always been just them singing with their headphones n mics, piano background. Then all of "produced" videos were from the original Future Friends album, up till this point. Hope that makes sense : )
