    The last moment, when she’s clearly starting to cry, and she reaches out (literally) only to be embraced by the women around her is so beautiful. Women in community are powerful.

    The opening monologue is my internal monologue every day for the last three years. I’ve got nothing left to offer, and I don’t understand why God keeps making me wake up every fucking day.

      I’m sending you love and ask that you be shown exactly what you need to understand your purpose. More than that, I hope you get relief from all you went through and currently going through

    My favorite lines are: I found a strength I have never known ( finding that strength in the darkness of r and sa is to me so empowering) and some things only God can forgive. I believe that 1000%

    my favorite lyric is "i'll bring thunder, i'll bring rain, and when i'm finished they won't even know" it's just so powerful to express the anger that comes with it
    please do fine line, it's so beautiful

    "Sometimes I pray for you at night"
    The strength it takes to pray for someone who has done you so wrong is incredible. It is truly admirable.

    I WAS NOT expecting this!!! I'm so happy!!! Kesha deserves so much - she's such a strong and talented woman with a beautiful soul!!!
    (I'll watch it after the VMAs are over)

    I’m so glad you reacted to Kesha, she’s such an amazing artist! I feel with this album she was trying to be positive whereas her latest album is more ‘truthful’ about the darker feelings and more reflective. Would recommend you reacting to some songs from Gag Order but wow are some of them heavy!

  • @bluelightvisions
    @bluelightvisions Год назад +22

    so happy you did this one! Thank you for being so vulnerable with your audience. This meant a lot to me in 2017, it came out at the time where I really really needed it. And I definitely could connect back to that feeling with seeing your reaction.
    If you ever want to react to more kesha, she has a lot of good stuff from her new album “Gag Order” (a reference to the fact that she was still in a lawsuit while creating it). I’d definitely recommend “Fine Line”, “Living in My Head” and/or “All I Need is You” 💙

    The live performance is my "I need a good long cry" video for SURE. So much power and pain and honesty all wrapped together in her vocie.

    The fact this lost the Grammy to a generic Ed Sheeran song is criminal.

    Hey Mere! Thanks for this! I did a presentation about this song last year and how she fought against @@@@@ culture, i'm still traumatized after it! She's so brave though ❤

    • @mendwithmere
      @mendwithmere  Год назад +6

      Wow! That’s so cool! She is very brave

    I've been listening to this song for years. And it still gets to me.
    I've been in "depths of despair" moment for a few weeks. But I have learned over the years (and have tried to remember) that it's not the end. It's just another chapter in the book of journey and so much remains unwritten.

    • @aidenrushing9841
      @aidenrushing9841 Год назад

      "Colors feel muted for me." YAAASS! That's what it feels like. And then when you are coming out of that space suddenly the sun is brighter, the sky is bluer, the trees are greener, etc.

    The monologue she said in the beginning tore me to shreds. I’d give anything to get to the other side.

  • @ndsketcher6445
    @ndsketcher6445 Месяц назад

    I don't know what the actual intention was, it could have been anything, but every time I see her in B&W on the raft and then the super colorful bird come in, I just think of that Emily Dickinson poem: " 'Hope' is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul".

    Hi Mere! I can’t stress enough how much I appreciate your work, you seem so sweet and I can’t imagine a better person for this type of content💙I am beyond proud of you for your book, you deserve the world! I don’t know if you’d be down but I’d love to see your reaction to Dancing with the devil by Demi Lovato, it’s really heavy, yet so empowering, I thought you might be interested. If not, that’s totally fine, record only the reactions you truly want and always put yourself first! Thank you so much one more time…take care💙💙

  • @outsider120

    I recommended:
    "Silent All These Years" by Tori Amos.
    And "Recoking" from Alanis Morissette.

  • @VioletEmerald
    @VioletEmerald Год назад +2

    Amazing reaction. I've adored this song for many years now but I've never seen either of these videos. This was so great.
    I'm really curious to understand more about the Fair Use process and RUclips member process and generally becoming monetized even if most of your videos are treated as not monetizable.
    I have been thinking about my own options for monetizing my fanvideo RUclips channel by posting other videos occasionally that could be monetized since RUclips keeps reminding me i could become a RUclips partner, based on views but I am so confused about if I really would be allowed... but also just thinking about making a second RUclips channel that's the monetized one and considering what kind of videos could be posted there.
    I just found it interesting you brought this up in here.

  • @brunocardoso2977
    @brunocardoso2977 Год назад +2

    A curious fact: Kesha said that she never watched this performance. She's very insecure about it and is afraid of seeing anything that might be considered a "flaw". I wish she knew how good she was and how proud we all are.

    Speaking of pigs, please react to Swine by Lady Gaga.
    (Fun fact, it was featured in the hunting ground film)
    It’s about her rage she felt from being r/sa.
    Thank you Mere.
