Vocal Coach Reacts Where You Are - Moana | WOW! This was…

[@SongsFromASuitcase]

📌PATREON: Watch Moana w/screen! Get EARLY ACCESS to videos! 👉bit.ly/MOANAWHEREUARE

[@Kayjee17]

"That dude from Hamilton" is Christopher Jackson who played Washington, and apparently little Moana was sung by Louise Bush(?) from what I can find.

[@tinahairston6383]

You should watch the behind the scenes for this.

[@Th3_Vees]

Can you please do the movie over the moon next😢 ive been waiting for you to react to it

[@Th3_Vees]

Btw good work for another nice video

[@Rs176988]

Moana’s mother’s voice is Nicole Scherzinger. Would love to see you react to more of her. She’s got quite a few performances of Broadway songs. And her version of Beauty and the Beast with Luke Evans is beautiful.

[@tiffanyamber3523]

I sob when I hear “I am Moana” I lost my grandma at a young age (11, I am now 25) so when I hear this song I get teary eyed thinking of the stuff I miss about her and the stuff I missed out on

[@CyndiMcLain]

I think you slightly misunderstood - the voice of Moana is Auliʻi Cravalho, who IS Polynesian (Hawaiian), but she's lighter skinned, so she wanted someone who's darker-skinned like Moana to represent the character live. I saw an interview where she mentioned wanting someone younger to play the character as well, since she's already in her 20s & Moana's supposed to be a teen (& who knows when filming will even start?). So it's not that she's bad representation for the character exactly, but that she wants more Polynesian girls to also be represented. Disney's (rightfully) getting a lot of negative feedback for hiring a lighter-skinned girl to play Nani in the upcoming live Lilo & Stitch movie, so they need to pay more attention to their representation if they want to keep fans happy.

[@caitlynskiff2001]

I'm whiter than white so I don't mean this in a bad way or to offend anyone I'm just trying to understand, but I worry about the message to lighter skinned POCs. Like isn't that saying to them "you aren't a POC enough to represent your culture"?

[@urfavecurlyhead]

For real though its kinda messed up how they do that

[@james3276]

​@@caitlynskiff2001 I mean, let's think about the other side here though. There are dark skinned POC who are constantly passed up for roles, especially lead roles due to this conscious and subconscious belief and epidemic that lighter skin looks "better." Lighter skinned people of color have always been chosen as the main representation for as long as cinema was made. That is why people are pushing for talented dark skinned people to finally get a chance for these kinds of roles. All light skinned POC such as myself can do is understand that in the bigger picture, representation for ALL POC is important, not just for one kind of POC.

[@megan-im2ny]

@@james3276perfectly put 🫶

[@riccardomosena4162]

and then they cast a darker skin girl for snow white, they really can't do worse than that now xD

[@shinichigojir12]

I love the fact that even at the end, not only she looked back at the grandma, but you can tell she tried her hardest to steel herself and forced a smile to proceed, somehow still unconvinced if she was making the right choice.

[@shakirasmylie6178]

Moana was my favourite movie and this person is like a very amazing vocal coach

[@daniellopezespericueta9772]

Unpopular opinion: This is the best song of the whole movie. I like it better than How Far I'll Go. Not to say it's a bad song at all, but this song is so amazing.

[@tinahairston6383]

This is Disney at its best that keeps getting lost here and there. Christopher Jackson - The Chief Rachel House - Grandma Louise Bush - toddler Moana Nicole Scherzinger - the mom Auli'i Cravalho - Moana

[@jocelyngipson7882]

I DIDNT realize Christopher did the singing voice!!! Not the acting

[@tinahairston6383]

Everyone who voiced a character sang except Temuera Morrison. Though he can sing, I can't find why he didn't for the movie.

[@ultima1594]

The mom’s voice is so underrated she is my favorite part of the song.

[@tracychaves3161]

Nicole Sherzinger was Epic in the mom’s role 💕

[@toganium4175]

Why did they name their kid “ocean” in Hawaiian if they never wanted her to interact with the water?

[@DavidDickeee]

The father is a bit of a hypocrite soooo

[@samandt4058best]

@@DavidDickeee His friend died in the water

[@DavidDickeee]

@@samandt4058best yes yes i know But its still a fishing island If he hated the water that much He wouldve put a full ban on it

[@kaylabeshears6485]

Probably the same reason that Darth Vader's identity as Luke and Leia's father was supposed to be a shocking revelation and yet the German word for father is in his name.

[@k1ng_0fthes0uth-8]

Irony

[@takigan]

Such a beautiful movie. Practically every musical number has me on the brink of tears because of how incredibly moving and beautiful they all are. They're all so good at tapping right into the core of humanity.

[@jillscott1202]

Dad is Chris Jackson who played Washington. Mum is Nicole Sherzinger from pussy cat dolls.

[@zachtomomitsu7720]

2:05 my favorite Disney quote (there comes a day when you're going to look around and realize happiness is where you are) But I like a lot of quotes from Disney movies

[@juliamajer121]

When Moana came out she was 16 and now she is like 22. SHE IS GREAT AND I LOVE AULI'I CRAVALHO

[@Timtom24]

same for me with the crying in every piece of music in this movie.. except for your welcome and shiny but still. I've watched it many times now but still have to cry because of the movie, it's just too beautiful!

[@KrystalAnn0688]

This is my favorite song in the whole film ❤

[@blaq2handle]

The grandma is played by Rachel House who was actually in her 40's when recording this. I liked her in the movie Whale Rider which is also about Polynesian culture.

[@theartsyzoologist]

Sina, Moana's mother is voiced by Nicole Scherzinger aka lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls.

[@nudgificator]

The heart of Rafiki, Moana/Lion King crossover! 😆

[@shanicesalmon6010]

All the moana songs 😘🤌🏼

[@PxsDD]

I cried throughout the whole movie the first, like, 5 times I watched it

[@mariana-cz1fc]

I still cry😂😂

[@SchattenAlpha]

I have watched this movie many times.. To the point my roomies are sick of it.. Now the only part I ever cry at is when Tifiti comes back into her nature self.. It's such a powerfully animated scene for me.. Gets me every time.. Now the death of the grandmother moves me but does not make me cry.. I think because there is that transformation where she leaves as the manta ray.. It is a beautiful scene. (Course I am also an artist and draw a lot so I do look at the visuals a bit more then listen to the vocals though the songs in this are amazing.. have the sound track to it)

[@jijimoore6120]

I love Moana I cry rivers every time. Well really I do off any Disney/Pixar movie

[@gingerbarlow]

My single quibble with this song is that they didn't let Chief Tui's voice actor sing in this song. I love Chris Jackson, don't get me wrong, but Temuera Morrison is ALSO a beautiful singer and it makes no sense that he wasn't allowed to sing this song for the character. He didn't even get to sing it in the Māori dub, just to add extra salt to the wound!

[@kaitlynnmeyer6220]

Yessss I’ve been waiting for this one!

[@MetalPharoah]

Just as with The Lion King in Dutch, for Moana I did cry the entire movie it is just so powerful, unique, and emotional.

[@soph4850]

I love this film, First time I watched it I was just there for the pig but over time I’ve grown to adore the whole thing so much Edit: I need someone like that grandma in my life When roughly is Mamma Mia 2 released? I plan on doing what I did previously and joining the movie patreon to watch all the film watch parties I’ve missed over the course of a month - I’m in the TV series patreon but I definitely can’t keep up both currently so I just join the movie one every now and again to catch up on any of the ones I want to watch.

[@Barryallencsi18]

3:00 her name is Nicole Scherzinger

[@shanicebrown6852]

I love the grama she is such sweet soul by the way she sing

[@kylefukumoto5811]

The new Disney Lorcana card game has if your card is a Singer like Cinderella, Gentle and Kind, you can play a Song card like "Let It Go", most players will sing the song!

[@R1NLUVZUU]

This reminds me of my grandmas passing, she was so healthy and happy and then thing all went downhill so fast..

[@victoriaarnold-rebollini3268]

The dude from Hamilton (Lin Manuel Miranda) doesn’t sing this song, he is a writer & producer. The performers are Christopher Jackson, Rachel House, Nicole Scherzinger, Auliʻi Cravalho and Louise Bush

[@Des329]

They took Grandma Tala from us way too early in the movie.😭😭😭

[@jasminejames1090]

Moana's mom is voiced by Nicole Scherzinger from The Pussycat Dolls. If you haven't been told already

[@aalyiahpowell]

Moana’s mother is Nicole from the pussycat dolls

[@zachtomomitsu7720]

I knew Auli'i Cravalho was not going to play Moana in the live-action but I didn't know the reason I like that you did that as well The new Moana in the live- action is Zendaya Coleman. but Auli'i Carvalho is going to be a producer of the live-action film

[@serahnkahukura8433]

Auli'i Cravalho is Polynesian, Zendaya isn't. I did see an AI generated live action poster with Zendaya's face on it. Auli'i made a statement that someone younger should play the role; she's 22, Zendaya is 26. I've heard a lot of people spout the idea that her decision was because of colorism, but afaik Auli'i has never made any reference to that so prob just rumours.

[@zachtomomitsu7720]

@@serahnkahukura8433 that is an interesting fact I did not know that Thank you for telling me , I do remember seeing something on Auli'i Cravalho about her not playing and why I can't remember what you said I'd look at it again

[@SpringStarFangirl]

​@@zachtomomitsu7720Auli'i is lighter-skinned, and she wants to give opportunities to darker-skinned Polynesian girls, since they rarely ever get to see girls like them on the big screen. She's also in her twenties, and Moana should be a teenager.

[@sheliamoore3388]

Rakfiki- The Lion King. Love it!!

"Its the dude from hamilton" haha he's great and he's everywhere

[@DisneyPrincessGirl-j1l]

¿Have you react the songs of the Live action of Mulan?, Cause you really should hear Liu Yifeu AND Cristina Aguilera. Liu had a soft song that reflects Mulan being graceful. And Cristina Aguilera shows the strong part of Mulan which Is fighting pretty well.

[@DigiDestined13]

To be honest? I think after the colorist backlash to Sydney Agudong's casting as Lani for the Lolo and Stitch Movie, Auli'i Cravalho decided that she didn't want to put herself through that.

[@m.a.2658]

Interesting. Now was the backlash colorist? Or was the casting?
