I love your comment about "I feel like it needs a key change here. Like I'm waiting for it to bump up there." Why? Because Lin-Manuel's arrangement without the key change made you feel subconsciously the desire for a plus-up into grandeur... EXACTLY what Mirabel is singing about desiring for herself. (* *chef's kiss* *) A perfect moment of musical communication without words to perfectly mirror the singer's emotions. Might as well change the title to "Waiting on a Key Change". ;)
Beautiful point!
100% agree, it's the building anticipation with no pay-off. Totally Mirabel's life.
The visuals are the pay off
omg that’s actually genius 🤯
thank you for pointing that out 😍
Guess I'm a little late here, but if you listen closely, there actually is a key change exactly at the moment she said it lol, i believe she didn't notice it because she paused exactly at the change
The missing key change was deliberate and SO Lin. The emotion of the song built throughout, but we had a whole movie ahead of us. The emotions she was feeling didn't lend itself to a big key change. Her journey was just starting. Such an amazing song.
I hope Lin stays longer. I hope this is the start of a Neo Disney Era
@@lotus4147 apparently not
I feel like the reason it's almost...unfinished?... Like it is supposed to build up to something and it doesn't; is because Mirabel feels unfinished, she wants more, she feels incomplete because she isn't like her family, so the song reflects that.
The song is done in 3/4 time to show that Mirabel is literally out of beat with the rest of her family.
I came here to comment this too. It’s genius.
I was hoping someone would point this out. The song sounds like it begins in a slow 4/4 time, but shifts when she sings, "I'm not fine."
Mirabelle sings “open your eyes” 4 times addressing Abuela in this song and this is then beautifully returned back to her when Abuela sings “open your eyes” once back to Mirabelle in the song “all of you”. this is the beautiful resolution to the angst and pain being expressed here, with Mirabelle realising her value. Great reaction.
And both also reflect the very start of the story with little Mirabel expecting to get her gift.
I only heard her say it 3 times but you're right. This entire movie was amazing and Lin is a genius.
I love when she says “open your eyes”. That’s what abuela says when they receive their gifts, but mirabel is using the expression meaning realize and acknowledge how you’re treating me
It occurs to me, when youre discussing how you're expecting a key change, that the story of Mirabel at this point is building to something Bigger (a Gift) but ultimately/temporarily being let down. The build to key change and then the denial could be a musical representation of that tension. The fact that she holds the song strongly on its original key to me indicates that Mirabel is truly enough as she is, miracle or no.
I love the "open your eyes" part, because Mirabel is begging her abuela to finally see she's hurting, later Alma herself asks Pedro "open my eyes, if the answer is here help me find it",, the movie itself starts with Alma speaking to Mirabel in spanish and then she says in english "open your eyes",,, and at the end, during All of you, she again tells Mirabel "open your eyes" and asks "what do you see?"
to which she answers "I see me"
because all Mirabel ever wanted was to feel seen.
this rhythm is called joropo, it is well known in the eastern colombian plains and we share this with venezuela. his main instrument is the harp. this melody is beautiful
Yep, as a venezuelan when she said salsa I was like "hold up a minute... that's joropo" didn't even notice until that moment. This feels like a orchestral reinterpretation of some folkloric song, like Gustavo Dudamel arrangements.
Lin talks about being inspired to write this song when hearing the Colombian tiple. Howard Ho on RUclips in his video talking about Dos Oruguitas talking about Lin’s inspiration of the Tiple and how’s it’s all over the soundtrack.
That extrange rhythm is called joropo it is original from Venezuela.
Ugh, this song is literally so good, I've been completely obsessed with it since I first heard it ❤️ both Lin Manuel Miranda and Stephanie Beatriz have done such an incredible job at this, it's so underrated! I can't wait for you to hear it ^^
I agree. I love this song too!
Ye like is there a bad song in encanto?
@@Legendaryexe-le4sqno
I swear the restraint on the key change was to put you in that frustrated space right with Mirabel. She’s waiting for a miracle and as the song crescendos it _keeps teasing_ the key change and never delivering. How many nights must little 6-yr-old, 9-yr-old, 12-yr-old Mirabel have been staring at the nursery room ceiling wondering when she would be worthy of the recognition of her abuela, only to be disappointed each time.
It puts us fully in her headspace so that we’re distracted by how sad she is when suddenly the pain her sisters and family are feeling can surprise us. It’s truly well crafted as a musical story.
This song is incredibly deep and honestly very refreshing to hear from a Disney movie where a normal person shows initiative instead of problems being solved magically. I am a 1st generation immigrant from a Colombian family who are wildly successful. I broke down when I saw this scene in theatres
I've seen other people saying this is Mirabel's Let it Go - moment. But it isnt! this is not a I-am-free song. This is like the end of "Wait for it" or "burn" when she is struggling because she cant do anything. She is a woman with kids and her reputation has been drag but she is in era where she has no voice. What Lin does so great is he understands internal power struggle.
Omg I was not expecting that shoutout 😳 I almost jumped out of my skin😂 I’m so glad you reacted to this song, it made me cry the first time I heard it, and it’s pretty underrated I think, so I really wanted to hear your take on it!
"Mirabel you're enough!" omg Danielle that was so sweet of you!
I just loveeee this song. Mirabel is in such distress here. “I am ready, come on I’m ready!” She’s so close to tears, singing her heart out.
Oh yeah the voice actor was waiting on a miracle when she recorded this song she was like 9 months pregnant have the baby soon days after
Edit oh she was in labor when she was recording this song she just didn't tell anyone cuz she didn't want him to worry so it was not days later it was hours
Lin-manuel Miranda wanted this to be a different type of Disney song so he made the timing like a waltz and told the voice actor to sing it as such
Waiting on a miracle is one of my favorite songs from Encanto! *I love the meaning behind it*
ME TOO
Sorry capitals
How did you get early?
This is 3hours ago bruh
Everyone is waiting for something more to happen in this song....kind of like Mirabel herself waiting on a miracle. I could see Lin planning that. It builds up to something that doesn't happen. 😄
You’re the only person who mentions the “open your eyes “part… But it’s not just that it’s repetitive, it’s the urgency behind it, she’s repeating it one after the other with the outs much of a space in between, to show that urgency, please see me, please notice me, please make me matter to you. You’re very moving part of the song.
I love this song. First off sad that no one seems to notice her missing even her parents…
The first freeze frame and how she interacts with the rest of the family (holding pepas rainbow? 😢) and then repeating the “I can’t” phrases with “I would” phrases that actually are things she ends up doing or influencing throughout the movie (I would move the mountains- they crack open- make new trees and flowers grow - through what else can I do which Isabella even says she owes it all to Mirabelle - heal what’s broken - more mental/family turmoil - show this family something new/ who I am inside…)
And then I just tear up at the second freeze frame when she goes back into the house, which seems to me like her ideal everyone is around me and look how PROUD they all are. For a split second she is in the center of that half circle with Antonio cheering and everyone else even Abuela so proud.
Love this song. So great to belt in the car with no one around. 😊
They’re all so good, but this one is definitely underrated. Love love.
Great musical analysis! Since you've commented on how it feels like Disney is doing something new, I'll just say I wouldn't call it a real departure so much as a deepening of an emerging trend with Disney. I feel like they've been examining trauma since Moana, but they've just refined that strategy. Encanto feels like it just went a step further than its predecessors in that trauma is really the impersonal star and the villain of the whole piece.
You can compare Encanto to Coco, for example, which explored similar themes. Coco is also about the importance of family, the impact of familial trauma, and what alienation from our histories can do to you. It's also a story about reconciliation. But with Encanto, the trauma of the family is always in focus, and there isn't a villain like DeLaCruz. The bad guy is literally what happened to them - Alma is definitely redeemed by the end.
I really appreciate this trend, like you. Very humanizing art.
This one is my favorite!! it’s so relatable to me more than the other songs
The key change you want is excluded on purpose. The audience is left wanting for something in the track even if we cannot identify it. Just like Mirabel if left wanting. The audience like Mirabel is left waiting for something that isn’t going to happen. I love this song but it honestly gets sadder every time you hear it because you know Mirabel is always going to be left waiting.
Fun Fact! Mirabel’s voice actor Stephanie Beatriz was in labor when she recorded Waiting on a Miracle.
This song is so underrated! It’s definitely my favorite along with What Else Can I Do. Also, the key change does happen right after the “open your eyes!” repetition.
Well this isnt the first Disney movie that have such an amazing songs with touching your heart and soul, but for me after one watch this movie went on my personal top 10 on second place imidiately. First will always be Hunchback of Notre Dame, still remember being 12 i 1996 sitting in the cinema and when that amazing score starts my tears just started to falling.
I agree. There are songs like “reflection“, and “part of your world“ which are emotional and full of longing. But this is the first one where the emotions are not pretty, and they’re blatant, and there for everyone to see. All the heavy breathing that she’s doing at the beginning in particular, and the urgency and some of her phrases where she really repeats certain phrases over and over and over. That was well done.
This is easily my second favourite Encanto song (Surface pressure is my fav), absolutely love it
Encanto broke so new ground visually. For the longest time Disney animators restricted how much emotion their heroines could show because they didn't want any unattractive faces. They always had to stay pretty.
In Encanto Mirabel constantly does silly and angry faces. Young Abuela's heart wrenching cry at the loss of Pedro was so powerful. Imagine if that was scaled back to keep her "pretty".
They're also better at showing age in women. It's not just the evil middle-aged women who show their age beyond being plumpler; Pepa has wrinkles and Julieta has gray hair.
This is definitely my favorite Disney song, it’s just so beautiful, and it shows Mirabel’s emotion and what she’s going through the entire movie.
omg i love this song! a lot of people underrate it because surface pressure and we dont talk about bruno exists, but i love all the songs equally. mostly what else can i do and surface pressure but they're still all close lmao.
this song along with Dos Oruguitas are both ballads! IMO Dos Oruguitas is the best song in the movie (bc it’s in spanish and i’m latino so i can resonate with it more) you should react to it:) It’s also the saddest so beware !
Waiting on a Miracle is done in more of a waltz type where the beat is 1,2,3,1,2,3
Every other song is a four beat. 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4
It is hinting that Mirabel feels out of beat with her family. Even in the family Madrigal Mirabel sings in triplets while Alma sing standard 4.
Alma is like this 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4
However Mirabel sings like this 1-2-3,4-1-2,3-4-1,2-3-4
However to truly understand why this is critical you have to listen to dos Oruguitas
This is the song I personally relate to the most. Especially when I was younger.
I love the Encanto music because they're so relateble. The one that resonates with me the most is All of Me because I'm from AZ complicated family and usually being the youngest, you see things from a slightly different angle from my other siblings
Stephanie Beatriz recorded this while in labor. Who's to say the voice crack wasn't just a contraction while singing and they decided to add it?
This song is one of my favorites comes in a close tie with What Else Can I Do. because I relate to Mirabel and Isas characters the most. feeling like an outcast in my family feeling like I can't live up to my sibling's achievements and feeling like I have to be perfect. Lin really delivered with this song and this soundtrack and the story crew and animation crew did a beautiful job making an instant Disney classic.
i can never not almost cry singing this too I swear. The cover I posted I had to rerecord so many times lol.
I really love that it didn't traditionally resolve. It felt so intentional, because none of her problems had even been acknowledged, let alone had movement towards being solved. The lack of key change, the lack of a more traditional ballad resolution was such an intense musical representation of where Mirabel was actively at. It's actually one of the things I really liked about Encanto: all of the songs break musical tropes in the pursuit of better representation of where the characters are at. And it's just done phenomenally.
I think this movie show us an another view of Disney about showing Emotions that many many people can feel. All the unsaid that put some pressure for each characters. Then how they released this pressure and how that help to rebuild a good "home" a good solid family's struture.
I love this song!! I just sung this song before my sister who loves it!!! In particular , I like the feeling in the song which makes it deeper and meaningful for us.
#subscribtionsquad First Congratulations on the silver play!!! Also, I love all your videos !! I really loved this one because I love this song and I think a lot of people remember the other ones but this one is sooo powerful and is soo relatable. Thank you for reacting!!
I think we turned a corner with Frozen 2, bc there are a good amount of songs in there with vulnerability and real emotions, and with interesting styles that weren't typical of Disney, and I think that naturally led to the explosively different Encanto and its success. I hope we stay on this track because this style of making Disney musicals is really awesome, as good as previous movies obviously were, I'm excited for the future of Disney musicals and movies.
No one seems to mention how she gets a nasal sound in her voice because she is weepy and all stuffed up. What a great and too often missed detail.
My favourite song from the movie, maybe because it is the one I most relate to ❤🔥🤗
I also heard that same comment on another video about the key chain. They were saying that's what this song needed to be over the top.
From what I’ve heard, Stephanie Beatriz was actually in labor (like childbirth labor 😱), during the recording of this song! Amazing
"I would move the mountains, I would make flowers bloom, I would heal what's broken, show this family something new"
She actually did all of that in the end, also, when she sings "come on I'm ready" the green firework may be a future reference to bruno
Can wait to watch it 😁
Hope your having a great day😁❤️
the one thing that makes this song better is that the voice actress for mirabel was in labor, and having contractions, while singing this song. look it up, its true! she didnt say anything because she didnt want anyone to panic
OMG thank you so much I was waiting for you to react to this song
Danielle i love your Encanto videos!!! I play them on repeat 😅🤣 Thank you so much for these!
She didn't need to wait for a miracle because she is the miracle that her family needs.
Hello Danielle. You should react to “Dos Oruguitas” from Encanto. That’s such an emotional song. I’m colombian and I love your videos.
I may be late to the party but I'm definitely loving all your videos and I've been binge watching all your encanto videos
girl this would sound so beautiful with your voice 🥺
Whenever I watch your videos it makes me so happy
You know what makes me love this song even more? I read somewhere that while filming this song stephanie beatriz was pregnant and had started going into labour but carried on singing without telling anyone cause she didnt want anyone to freak out, she just belted this out and then went to the hospital like it was nothing and it makes me love this song so much more than I already did.
This movie is addressing generational curses and unrealistic expectations! I'm planning a 3 generation movie night at my home with my family. We will discuss what we felt about the movie afterwards 😊
for the key change this isn't the high point of the movie this isn't ment to be that sort of uplifting triumphant song like so many disney songs its a "I want" song but from someone whose Moment to get the thing they want has past and the whole point of this is summed up by the line "hey I'm still part of the family Madrigal" because she's feeling left out and neglected and as if she doesn't shine or have value in the family because she doesn't have a gift even though both her father and uncle are included in the photo despite also not having gifts
Did anyone else hear her sing the same way as Isabella at part of "Will show them something new!" while looking at Isabella?
Never caught that before.
yaaay! omg, i thought you would never react to this one. im so excited!!!
I’m so in love with your voicee wthh
Encanto is basically marinated by Disney in Pixar's secret sauce. The emotions that this movie brings will make you thought that Pixar did it.
That extrange rhythm of that song is called Joropo originally created on Venezuela
You should definitely react to all of us from encanto, it’s so good and I think you’ll like it!
I am in love with the eyeshadow 😍
ackkkk im so exciteddd!! so glad to see your reaction and thoughts!!
Hey I started watching your videos for encanto and I love them all
I'm waiting for this since yesterday
omg, yasss, i really love all ur reactions💖💖💖
AAAAAH I've been waiting for you to react to this!!!
I kinda relate to Maribel being the outcast and forgotten member of the family.😭😭
I love her videos🥺
So ready for you to get to Dos Oruguitas! Devastatingly beautiful.
I think the wanting for the key change is reflecting mirabels wanting for a miracle, but it never happens. Idk I might be talking crap but that's how I saw it.
Hope you didn't forget to turn the mic on this time 😂. JK. Luv yah coach and congrats again
on the silver play ▶️. ❤️🙏
#subscriptionsquad
HAHAHA
loved your eye shadow
I feel like that the reason there isnt that break through you were describing is because of jealousy and uncertainty. Mirabel throughout this movie questions why she is in the madrigal and if she deserves to be there along people who have these amazing gifts. She is jealous of her older sisters and the rest of the family cause they are praised so often. This jealousy doesn't usual stop till something happens to stop it or at least help it. This song is her questioning and her jealousy. Note its not a toxic jealousy but its wanting jealousy. The break you were talking about would probably represent the musical representation of something happening, and thus, the jealousy and the questioning ends.
Waiting not for a Miracle, but for your react of music all of you of Encanto
Hi, I’m Makayla and I’m subscribe to your channel and I love singing along to the Encanto songs
Took me awhile to catch on to this song honestly but it's lovely 🤍
Years late but they did things like that since back with Mulan (reflection)
this was amazing! you could also react to the song all of you from encanto!
I just hopped into your channel and I am absolutely in fond of this channel. I love how you react to some awesome music. I just subscribed and I think I did the right thing.
#SubscriptionSquad
I love your videos you're my favorite RUclipsr, I love waiting on the
love you danielle
Talking about encanto your voice sounds really great
You should check the French version of this one, when she sings "Open your eyes" 3 times it almost feels like that singer was literally crying behind her mic while singing
"Mirabelle your enough" yeah I agree
For some reason when i heard this song i felt so relatble
She sings in In the Heights but her singing voice sounds so different in that movie than Encanto.
You know how you were talking about a key change? Someone does a version of this song for Caillo which actually brings in the expected key change
Hi, i'm living el salvador. I love so much your videos. Congratulations.
yey another encanto video🕯️💞
Can’t wait to watch………there is a new Morissette video u HAVE TO watch Danielle. She plays the piano and sings “Gusto Ko Nang Bumitwa” I’ve been listening to Morissette for 3 years and seen ever video I can…….this surprised and shook me.
You should check out encanto live at the Hollywood bowl.
#subscriptionsquad Congrats on your first silver play button! I love your channel and I’ve watched all the Encanto videos you did! I’m a new subscriber too! Also can you do All of You next from Encanto Thanks!
