Wash The Hurt Away (From The Netflix Film: “Arlo The Alligator Boy”) - Michael J. Woodard

[@Aqua472]

This song immediately makes me want to cry. "The life we want flashes and flashes. The love we had ashes to ashes." It's so beautiful and hits me way too hard

[@abbyselenesupera1256]

I feel that to 😫😭✋

[@DISTR4CK]

I thought he said flashed to clashes

[@Garneta425]

I felt that personally when I heard the song in the movie

God, that ending where you just hear an emotionally exhausted Arlo is just so sad.

I gen hope this movie goes viral on netflix and the micheal gets noticed more as an artist. everytime he would sing i would get chills.

[@KauaiSis]

Yes, one of few singers I can watch again and again.

[@Klutzybear]

Perfect example of not to judge a book by its cover. A great movie with amazing music.

[@Isaac..real.]

I was a bit skeptical at first when seeing this on Netflix, I watched it and it's a great movie.

[@oliviagrace-bl5mw]

i almost cried to this scene. you can hear how hurt he is in his voice. the VA did great

[@anamicanovic5522]

His voice is crying in the end.

[@randomcomment1286]

I love the fact that this cartoon alligator hybrid has a gorgeous set of pipes 👌

[@reneejohnson4818]

Arlo shows here just how mature he is. To be able to express his feelings like someone in their 20s or 30s at 15yrs (and 44 days 😂) is a sign of Edmee's successful parenting

[@crystalgaming1185]

Man this movie so good

[@coldplayfan59]

Agreed

[@StinkyGecko]

The thing that really got me with this song is that, Arlo the boy who always was so happy and cheerfull, felt alone You could almost hear the pain he is going through in this song.

[@DebrasDeliciousDishes]

This song just did something to me when I heard it it made me feel like it was written for me can anybody relate to that

This had me go to my car and put it on my stereo to "feel" it

[@bubblybunny6749]

After I heard this, I immediately added this on my Spotify playlist

[@hyperfoxartist9]

my fave song in the movie right here. it has me on the verge of tears with emotion with each time i listen to it

[@laraprisma6381]

It's my favorite song even before I watched the full movie !! I finished watching it earlier today! And loved it !! now just wait for the show;-;

[@07ldies]

never thought i would look at something and think it was cringe until i checked the actual movie out, and tbh im disappointed in myself for even thinking such things, this movie is truly really something else, the music is insane. 10/10 in my book amazing movie.

[@israelite2204]

Usually I do the same thing, but the music was so catchy and Arlo's animation himself was visually intriguing so I put it off and finally gave it a chance 2 days ago. Been musically hooked ever since.

[@jacobcox4565]

At the end of the song in the movie, it shows a silhouette of Arlo's dad with wings. At the gala near the end of the movie, he wears a cape with feathers on it. That's some excellent forshadowing

[@JPGH_Extras]

They literally made the saddest song to be ever put to a film... When the scenario in the actual film is just: "The first guy I asked about being my dad, which I've known for a total of 5 Minutes, told me he wasn't my dad" Lmao

[@sonianordez6888]

He discoverd he was his dad and went a long way to do this but he just said he wasn't,he didn't even say why he left him it's like his dad doesn't want him and it hurts a ton and now you don't know what to do you feel like your own dad hates you and think you made this whole journey for nothing.That is the situation also the way someone describes it can make you think it's something else

​@@graig5600 dude, people have emotions, and just because you're italian doesnt make you're better than everyone else.. it just means your an italian and a human being like the rest of us. no ones perfect. it is true that people die in the real world and it is sad but people still cry over stuff small including video game scenes, movies, and tv shows. it may be silly but crying is natural

[@littlesmithy]

Man, this movie gives me such a nostalgic feeling to old movies I used to watch as a kid, I love it

[@rulamantic]

I can't explain this in the main video, but I MUST (Spoilers btw) Notice that around the end of the scene when the father is shown on a giant tidal waves. Anyone notice he had wings fade in before the wave crashed down? You don't think anything of it while watching the movie for the first time, but after finding out the father's secret its like top tier foreshadowing-

[@sporetv57]

I've noticed that recently too!
