And that she saying she's not strong enough Cause it show that she doesn't want to fail or fall down on her knees You can hear the tone of voice her voice that she doesn't want to fall down
She takes care of her and immediately blocks her from any threat. Even the "keep Going" feels like it's advice for maribel. The rest of the song is catharsis but that moment is for her sister.
I am the oldest sister and this song gets me every single time and brings me to tears. It's sad to see how families put a lot of burden and expectations into a brand new little life. That is why many of us, the oldest siblings out there have in common feeling unheard, not validated, unseen, as if you were going to solve all the family issues yet you have in your power to work on this, transform it, and let it go to prevent passing, as much as you can, to next generations. Personally, this song and let it go from Frozen are two really powerful songs with great lyrics.
The last clip where she literally has the entire weight of the WHOLE town on her shoulders! Such a powerful song. Really makes you think about your own family and the roles people have.
She compares herself to Hercules but the song keeps comparing her to another figure. Atlas. Weight of the world literally on her shoulders in several segments of the song.
This song is absolutely brilliant in that it takes a character that could be a 1-dimensional, the super physically strong character and then gave her an insane amount of depth in a single song.
The short, happy break before the main chorus comes back is genuinely depressing. It represents that indescribable feeling so well. You get a moment to rest, only to immediately be put back under stress again. You're so used to it by that point that you don't even feel anything but an "ok..." anymore.
@@smartypants3919 it's not unintelligent. Unrealistic...yes. but it's a reality for many individuals especially if they r the eldest or first generation immigrants or first time college students for their family. As the eldest who checks all these boxes that line really hits home, because u r indeed made to feel worthless or useless if u aren't always helping ur family. Or made to feel selfish if u chose to put urself first and do 1 thing for u alone
"Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden" and " I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service" are the lines that absolutely slay me
@@ko7577 ?? thats not what the line meant at all ?? it states that every burden that the family carries was being carried by the eldest, not that the family is burden itself. how did u manage to completely change the message . if there r financial problems , THATS the burden to the family
@@ko7577 Disney is NOT saying family itself is a burden, it is the things that happen in a family that are burdensome NOT that family itself is burden, how slow are you?
I know it’s so precious, even while telling her how hurt she is she can’t ever stop (in her eyes, and because of Abuelas influence) she’s still helping while being vulnerable. The hug at the end was so precious, my favorite part in the movie tbh.
And when Mira looks uncomfortable or scared by Luisa’s strength and the burden she’s carrying, that’s when Luisa starts dancing. Even though she’s still singing about her burdens and struggles, she’s doing a fun dance as if to show Mirabel “see, it’s okay. We’re having fun” even though the fun part is all on the outside. It’s just for show to make Mirabel feel better.
a know it’s probably obvious but the visuals and idea of physical “pressure” are amazing representations of what mental pressure really feels like. This song and Luisa’s whole character profile is so relatable and I think that’s why everyone loves this song so much. It’s so common to feel this pressure and the physical representations of it really get the point across.
Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks, no mistakes" and "give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would have pulled you under" both those lines and how they were delivered were simply phenomenal.
Throughout the song, she is protecting Mirabel from everything still. She’s still smiling, still fighting, still protecting the whole time. Also, she says “a light wind blows,” but it is a tornado. Showing how much she withstands. I also like how they show “the weight of the world” on her, and how she catches everything to protect Mirabel and the donkeys (which is a good name for her family lol)
as an eldest sibling here, I remember trying not to cry here since my sister and brother are watching Encanto with me so I don't want to show them that I'm being affected by this song since I don't want to put guilt on them, I especially relate to the lyrics "give it to your sister, your sister's stronger" we're always expected to be the strong one, I remember how my aunt told me in the hospital that I can't cry or breakdown infront of my dad or my siblings even tho I'm literally dying inside when my mom died. it hurts how my mom was already buried but I still couldn't cry and only brokedown when I no longer can't hold it, I cried on my friend's shoulder in a school toilet when I returned after missing months of class because I got told that I might need to repeat my whole school year (fortunately my History teacher helped me reaching out to my other subject teachers)
Hope you are hanging in there, I'm sorry you have gone through so much and just hope you are feeling like you can cry / talk when you want and need to.
As the eldest and "responsible one", who always seems to be running around putting out fires and is first to be looked to for solutions to problems, this hit hard.
I'm the eldest, not just of my parents but of the whole generation for my family, I was expected to be responsible. This song is like everything I felt all in that short number
@@M_Noeli Actually, middle children have it the hardest and later on in life have the most trouble. The oldest is usually held up as an example to them and viewed as more of a "golden child."
@@ko7577 it varies between families who's treated lesser, my family, my mom used to abuse my youngest brother the most thank goodness we are out of that house now 🙏🏻
"Under the surface, was Hercules ever like 'yo I don't wanna fight Cerberus'" This line has a major effect in my opinion cause its an entertaining and deep metaphor about having huge things expected of you with no regard over whether its what you want
And the thing is? Hercules almost certainly didn’t want to fight Cerberus. The only reason he set out to do the Herculean Tasks he became so famous for is cuz the Greek gods had Hercules suffer years of servitude at the hands of some dipshit king who wanted Hercules to fail.
Everyone is understandably in awe of her appearance, being feminine with big muscles, but what stood out to me was her voice. Having a character with a deep voice that is still celebrated in song and isn't at any point the butt of the joke is so rare, I love it so much.
Yeah me too! Her voice was the first that took my attention and that made me come back to listen the song again and again. I also love the glotal stop when she says moun'ains. Strong, buff, but still feminine. I love Luisa too. I loved the endscene where she's slung in a hammock and offered a drink, like "Here girl, you damn well deserved this. Enjoy."
As a deep voiced woman this stood out so much. Alto women are the villains or the old maids. Not the reliable, beloved sibling. My whole life I've had one Disney song that wasn't a guys part I could sing and it was Ursula who was based on a drag queen. That's what people think of my deep voice. There are a handful of songs by some of the mezzo-soprano princesses that I can sing, but those are few and far between and often have a high note that kills it. But here's a true alto song by a character who's not elderly and not evil.
Even moreso, when she sings about her confidence, her voice is deep. When she's singing about her dreams and fears, it's higher. So confidence is shown as deep, anxiety as high.
I think, historically, people have pigeonholed female vocal ranges . It took a long time to recognize the value of black gospel song styles that defy the "rules" of mainstream vocal training. This and Lego Movie 2's Not Evil (Tiffany Haddish) both push the limits, being great songs with female vocalists that don't have the "standard female vocal" delivery.
I don’t now if anyone’s said this, but I LOVE the animation during the musical numbers. It’s just buttery smooth, and I love the visual language that shows how she’s buckling under the pressure on the inside, while the lyrics are mostly her trying to keep things together on the outside.
Oddly enough, i appreciate this song more as a younger sibling. It genuinely reminds me of my older siblings about the pressure they feel as the oldest and the ones who have the weight of our parents' expectations on them constantly. How often they protected the younger siblings from feeling such things
I absolutely LOVE the detail of the final 'domino' Luisa is struggling to hold up is her own door, showcasing the tremendous weight of it and how hard it is to carry the responsibility of having one of the strongest gifts in her family. Feeling the need to protect everyone because of it, especially her younger sister Mirabel. She may be able to move mountains and churches but nothing is heavier than the burden of having your beloved town and family rest on your shoulders.
Similar I like the scene from 2:30 on! Red for danger as the pressure piles on with the saddness and fear on her, blue for safety as she protects them all as she is confident and unwavering. It really shows how she is feeling compared to what she shows and does.
@@nightbane2889 Adding on to this: the blue there representing safety is ironic, as the blue appears with their house, and that's what nearly puts her under, more than any of the other things she lifts. It shows even more so that while she protects her family from danger, the biggest danger to her is them, and the pressure they place on her. I know that's what the entire song's about, but they show tell it again, all of it, right there with the colors and house.
The line "Was Hercules ever like 'Yo I dont wanna fight Cerberus'" is severely underrated in my opinion because this line equates the duty/responsibility that was expected of Hercules to the duties/responsibilities Luisa just assumes
I think eis more like be stronger dont make you more fearless... Luisa is the only one she can fight any danger even if she is to scared for doing so, is you do or you do... She can have fear or anything.
There were tons of examples they could have gone for there. They picked a great one, because it frames her mindset perfectly. The absurd level or thought that went into this film is a huge part of what makes it so good.
Hercules had to do "labors" that he probably didn't want to do, for the faults of another (Hera). Luisa has so much pressure from her abuela to do all these things she doesn't want to do too. Some from the movie being rerouting rivers, fixing leaning houses, rounding up donkeys and carrying them on her back, etc. She's the only one you see through the movie constantly working, even when she loses her gift. It isn't assumed, it's laid out clear as day.
I like how further into the song she seems more confident or happier because all that worry she had,she was able to talk it out and feel relieved to get it out of her chest
To me, the best part is that Mirabel isn’t ever afraid of Luisa. She shows confusion and concern when Luisa starts freaking out, but Luisa is never treated as a freak or monster. Instead, Mirabel clings to her sister for comfort and protection. I love it
at the beginning I think she was a little scared but as the song goes on she relates to her and stops being afraid. Luisa is probably the nicest to Mirabel in the family for example luisa said “watch out sis” instead of isabela’s “stop being in the way sis”
@sugarush magnolia 🌸 Sort of... being overly emotional is seen as a negative as far as the movie is concerned (The most emotional character in the movie is considered a total joke that isn't worth considering and the movie never stops relentlessly tormenting her), and a lot of the movie seems to deem controlling one's emotions as the positive, but not to the point of denial. . The main reason why the movie doesn't treat emotion as the enemy is because the movie is an "internal" battle, not an external one (not even an externalized battle). An external battle tends favor rising above your emotions. A internal battle tends to favor becoming one with your emotions.
Ya know it’s probably obvious but the visuals and idea of physical “pressure” are amazing representations of what mental pressure really feels like. This song and Luisa’s whole character profile is so relatable and I think that’s why everyone loves this song so much. It’s so common to feel this pressure and the physical representations of it really get the point across.
Yes! I also love how, even tho it's her song and we are seeing *her* internal struggles, she still puts Mirabel as a priority in every step and tries to keep her safe, for she's protecting her not only from physical harm but also from her mental burdens
Love how this song reaches out to so many people, especially older siblings as you’re expected to take care of your younger siblings when you’re parents aren’t around while also needing to deal with school and a job in some cases. It feels like too much and as if a single mistake will ruin everything so you push yourself into a situation where you feel as if you’re carrying your family on your back
I USED to fell like that, but them I realized nobody really cared, my siblings were even more independent than me, then I decided to live selfishly: I decide what I want to do and I measure my own worth, as the saying goes: “before you take care of others you have to be able to take care of yourself”
Same. I'm also an only child, and I constantly put others above myself and do everything I can to help other people because I think it's what I should do, and I only feel satisfied with myself and my actions if it's benefiting someone else and helping or making them happy.
as an only child I feel you. I make one tiny mistake my dad goes beserk and I get damaged emotionally. I wish they would inflict the pain physically cause that would heal. These things made me develop depression and sometimes I just dont eat. One day I got hurt really bad emotionally and i didnt eat. Skipped breakfast, skipped snack,skipped lunch and ate like a tiny portion when it was dinner. I just wish my parents would be happier and proud of me.
I agree!! The body language is amazing as well! Facial expressions and body language are most important parts of communication so it's amazing to see it done so well in animation. Makes them seem way more realistic!
This movie is a masterclass on cloth simulation. The way all the dresses flow. The shirts rincle and stretch. I can not get over the fabrics in this movie.
I love the small details here, when Luisa is all alone, the house crushes her for a second, but when Mirabel is under, she manages to carry all of it. I would love to know more about the relationship Mirabel has with her sisters, and maybe even her cousins.
You could kinda see it in the film: Isabella thinks Mirabel is always in the way but allows her to be herself Luisa doesn't wanna be a burden on her Antonio is like the brother she never had Dolores is the one who knows ALL the tea Camilo is more of a jokester
Technically Mirabel wasn't given a gift but she was like the carrier of the Encanto because of her family values. She made the house come back to life, she basically predicted Antonio's gift, she wanted to make her grandma proud, as she learned more about all her family members she no longer only worked to fix the magic but promised them all a better life once it was all solved, making Bruno come back, Luisa take a break, Isabella be herself and not marry who she doesn't want, hook up Dolores with who she thought she'd never end up with
2:33 I love that during this whole part Mirabel really sees past everything and has a connection with her sister. You can see in her face how devastated she is to see her sister under so much weight. But then Luisa breaks into dance and makes it fun again as not to worry Mirabel because this whole time she's been protecting her both physically and emotionally.
I love how in almost every shot pretty much she was protecting her little sister. Really pushing home how much she is there for her family "in service" to them as her only purpose, and that scene where she's holding her over the steep cliff and it cracks translates to me that doing that is breaking her, constantly dragging her down to save everyone, to hold them up. Pressure in other words. Its a really good song made better with good visuals.
I love how during the song, even though Luisa is letting out her insecurity and stress of being the strongest one in the family, she still keeps Mirabel safe. Its quite cute and its genuinely sweet to see. Despite her being tired and stressed and everything, she doesnt take it out on Mirabel. She saves her from danger with her strength, aka what shes stressed and what shes pressured about, which I find genuienly heart wrenching. Its bittersweet...and i love it Oh, not to mention how despite her brute strength, she's gentle to Mirabel, like how she carefully adjusts her glasses.
"I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service." And "Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden." Hit me in the chest watching this. The pressure of always being the strong one and carrying the weight of everything is such a universal experience, but we all seem to have different pieces that specifically resonate with each of us. Another masterpiece by Lin Manual Miranda and what a phenomenal big screen debut for Jessica Farrow. Was shocked when she didn't have any other discography listed.
I agree it does hit, especially to me being the oldest cousin and siblings of both sides of the family... the kiddos look up to me to much and the adults have a lot of expectations on me as well... mate im only 15-
"give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden" made me ugly cry in the movies, the writing in this song is impeccable.
All the lyrics for Encanto’s 8 songs were written by Lin-Manuel Miranda…creator and writer of Hamilton the Musical and In The Heights musical and movie. The music for Encanto was composed by Germaine Franco, an award-winning Mexican-American composer.
The second time I heard it was when it hit me. Those lyrics play in my head over and over. Today I send my mother this song... She still doesn't get it. Unlike the movie my family doesn't get a happy ending with a reunion. I ran away from them before I wasted more years of my life alone and broken for people who don't see me or my struggles. They just expect things of me because I'm family. 😭
This is one of the most powerful songs to come out of a Disney film, to me. It chokes me up- there's so much to take in and ur given slight relief before made to essentially bottle it back up, and my heart goes out to the many people experiencing that same generational trauma.
1940s generational trauma: World War II and 50 million deaths worldwide 1950s generational trauma: Vietnam war 1960s generational trauma: race riots, segregation, Vietnam 1970s generational trauma: Rolling blackouts, high crime rate, Vietnam 1980s generational trauma: The worst inflation in the country's history and the financial death of the working class 1990s generational trauma: Race riots, terrorism, high crime rate 2000s generational trauma: 9/11, Afghanistan and Iraq wars, recession 2010s generational trauma: COVID-19 2020s generational trauma: Helping little sister with math, being asked to do dishes, and "responsibility that cuts into Fortnite time"
@@ko7577 Um sorry? it isnt about that stuff lets visualize 2 parents are fighting or planning to break up for the better of the child, the child holds it all together since theyre everything to the parents at the moment, now lets say about 5 years later a sibling appears the child loves them but the parent disregards the other child not giving them attention even though the child was the only reason the could have lived happily still together, the child would understand yes but every year they get disregarded even more to the point they feel unnoticed and ONLY noticed when they do something bad purposefully or accident now 8 years later the younger sibling reaches puberty the same age the other child had to take most of the responsibilities u expect them to follow in ur steps but no, ur parents have changed their minds they let ur younger sibling do anything while ur childhood was taken away, this often leads to most older siblings to feel betrayed, this might also be the cause of the way the generations teaching to their children, if this parental behaviour started from ur great grandma lets say and ur mom is mimicking her mom which is mimicking her mom, this means this wont end until the awareness of the children, but usually since the first child holds everything together they are the only ones changing whilst the younger siblings mimick their mother since they recieved different treatment.
The moment at 2:43 absolutely wrenches my gut every single time. “Give it to your sister, it doesn’t hurt. And see if she can handle every family burden” as you can see the tears she’s holding back while the crushing weight of the boulders emphasize the crushing weight of expectation that she’s been holding back. It’s not only extremely gut-punching, but just purely an extremely relatable feeling and it just… wow
It's the ending for me 3:05 when she says "Give it to your sister and never wonder If the same pressure would've pulled you under". Abuela especially never allowed her to be vulnerable.
Especially how gently she places her away from harm, regardless of how imminent the danger is. Without question, almost as if it were muscle memory, she puts herself in-between her sister and harm.
Personally, I think the reason we see that Luisa is constantly protecting Mirabel in this song is because she never wants her to feel how Luisa thinks shed feel without her gift (worthless). The difference between Luisas relationship with Mirabel and Isas relationship with Mirabel is really cool to see. Luise clearly loves Mirabel so much and wants to her/protect her, whereas Isa sees Mirabel as "getting off easy". She doesnt have a gift, so Isa sees that as he not having to provide anything for the town or family. This movie is so good.
And just to add, you have to think for everything Luisa is going through (the idea she's only useful for what she can provide) she can relate to that "worthless" feeling; her strength isn't really "hers" but for the benefit of everyone around her. There's a kindred spirit there, and being the older sibling, a protective instinct (obviously.) So, so much depth. And as the younger siblings myself, I can see Luisa in my sister a bit: stronger than she ever should have had to be. ❤
@Ban this youtube YES! I feel much like that. I feel like I can never show my brother that I am weak, even though he already knows that, but I feel that he feels that double. Because though he is the "baby" of the family, he is the strongest (mentally, and emotionally) and he doesn't want us to see him in his weakness, and he is condoling us and giving therapy!
Now that you mention it, Isa didn't care if Mirabel got smacked around in the early part of her song lol. The more you think about this movie, the better it gets
the beautiful face expressions when shes taking on the rocks and then the house. the fear in her eyes as she looks at her sister, asking for help, but then she realizes she has to handle it herself- so she looks away. its fucking beautiful..
I don't think it's her asking for help. It's her realizing the fallout if she isn't strong enough, i.e. her sister's demise. She can't stop because her family depends on her. So she's able to find the strength to do what she's always done.
@@incaseofamnesia6380 Honestly, I tear up at this spot every time. Like the anxiety and weight she has to carry, and the fear of the fallout. Ugh! Such a real thing!
Well if people can't carry it all, they end up homeless, starving, and alone, so I hope this character realizes that what she's experiencing is just... life
@ko7577 your mummy probably didn't teach you mental health is a thing did she honey?She didn't tell you that people often have mental issues and not only physical ones, conditions that they just can't deal with alone, and they get treated for them huh? How about you go to a psychiatrist to find out? And solve that shtload of issues you've got going on? Who hurt you hun? Educate urself before you come back here, you're pitiful
"Give her all the heavy things, we can't shoulder" "Give it to your sister and never wonder, if the same pressure would have pulled you under"...you can really see in this song, and also especially these lines, that she has the most pressure to carry than the family, but she needs to stay strong because everybody expects that from her....This is my favorite disney song, because it really shows the flaws of being the oldest of the family and still needs to be perfect, or the family would break
not to be rude, but not all older children have all the responsibilities and stuff. the oldest isnt the care holder of the family, ur only saying that bc ur the oldest..my brother is the oldest and all he has to do is game all day, and the family wont break because of you u arent the boss the parents are 💀
I get that's it's not true for you, but that comment was a bit rude. It's true for them and a lot of other people and generally the oldest does end up with a lot more responsibility, even if you don't always see it. And there are a lot of people with absent parents or who have to take on more pressure even if their parents are there just because of personal things
@@luvemrie LMM said he wrote this song with his older sister in mind, because she had to take on the burden of being a third parent for him when his parents were busy or unable to be around. So, you know, it is specifically speaking from the perspective of an older sibling.
She’s the highlight of the movie, honestly. I thought she was going to be “I’m a female and I’m strong but men underestimate me.” But I was extremely pleasantly surprised when it explored her inner feelings.
My favorite part was that they didn’t pull attention to the fact that she’s a super muscular woman. They treated like a normal thing which it should be.
"I am female and strong and DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA THE PRESSURE THE FAMILY PUTS ON ME?!" I absolutely love Luisa for being so relatable. I mean. Im not female, or strong, but I do have anxiety, and comments like "Im pretty sure Im worthless if I cant be of service" are so aggressively relatable.
@@stanieldasboot953 Those lyrics make me cry 😭 I've bent over backwards so hard to try to get my parents and family to love me but they never did ☹️ I literally have a spiral injury from being abused, people only see me as a workhorse, a maid, a personal assistant, or their therapist. Nobody in my family ever liked me for who I am, they don't even know who I am. I tried to do everything I could for them but once they finally stretched me too thin and I stopped trying to win their approval, they disown me 😑
I have two younger siblings, I watched this movie with my little sister because she begged me to watch it. I sobbed in front of her during this scene, it’s the hardest thing to talk about as an older sibling. but it doesn’t matter if your parents are neglectful or not, the weight of an older sibling is always there. Everything Luisa says is so true and important. And as much as I can argue with my siblings sometimes, as much as an older sibling fights with their younger siblings, you can never truly hate them. I hated the movie at first because it resembled my life so much, the family fights and arguments, but after I got over it I made sure to hug my mom and brother and sister, and tell them I love them. I realize how this movie helped me grow, at the time I was a teenager and I always fought my mom 😂 like teens do. But I realized we were all struggling, and this movie helped me realize that. I went on a bit of a rant there but Disney should know how much I appreciate this movie ❤ and how important it is to realize the mental health matters, I love how they portrayed it for younger kids
I totally thought that was going to be the big reveal in the movie haha. I thought the grandma interrupting the opening song with a confused expression was a hint in that direction and then how no one sings or dances unless Mirabell is in the scene with them.
@@FallenAngelKystre honestly if her gift was hidden and was just her visualising music videos like she’s in Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist it would’ve made sense
I like how donkeys are everywhere in the song. Donkey do a lot of carrying and heavy lifting. They carry and carry and carry without getting tired for a long time. They are a literal symbolism of how louisa is being used as a pack mule by her family and the entire village. When the relaxation scene came on the donkeys have horns on them to portray that they are pretending to be unicorns. The donkeys want to be carefree and happy like unicorns because to the donkeys the unicorns don't have the trouble that they do. Louisa wants to relax and be like the 'unicorns'. She needs a break but doesn't want to lose her value and bonds by not being there to do things for others. So instead she begins taking on the weight of the world out of love for others and a feeling of obligation towards the encanto y la familia. She puts on a facade of being unbreakable (the three ringed circus) and always ok but the pressure and stress is slowly building up until she feels like she is going to pop (the guesser feild)
Unicorns could also represent how he doesnt see it as possible,like that kind of freedom would be fairytale levels of unachieveable for her on the position she is in
As the oldest sister, that had to deal with depression and the damage my parents inflicted to the Psyche of me and my sisters. This is the story of my life
I genuinely loved that so many of the things asked of Luisa were so trivial, but since her strength comes from magic she is under the family pressure to “earn” her miracle. The townspeople should have easily been able to round up all their own donkeys, but nope, have the strong girl do it. It made the ending so much more powerful when the rest of the town came to rebuild - magic made their lives easier, but the Madrigals are more than the sim of their gifts and don’t need them to find fulfillment. Edit: my bad on the name, y’all. Autocorrect is a bitch
Let's be honest, this song hits hard for every older sibling but there's a very crucial part of the animation that needs to be talked about. When the final chorus starts, you can see Luisa afraid while holding the falling rocks. It's such a powerful and scary thing that perfectly enhances the weight of the lyrics. Edit: so I'm seeing a lot of people talking about middle siblings and stuff. I'd like to clarify. "Older sibling" does not mean OLDEST sibling. I'm not the oldest, I'm the second of four. I was the middle child for 8 years. For those of you who would like attention for middle or even youngest children.
I'm not the older sibling but my sister left the house because my mom just gives everything to another person and blames them for everything. I always get blamed I'm never off duty she tells me one thing I do it but she claims she said something else or I messed up. To her I am never good enough. She does things that she says I'm never allowed to do
For me it hits for the message of wanting to carry my family under my shoulders even though I am the youngest sibling in my family at age 17 that will be going to college soon. I am always watching over my older siblings and helping them out with their task for I am the tallest member of my family so I can naturally help reach places that they cant reach naturally, as well my family is putting all their fate in me to accomplish my goal of becoming a RN and the first member of the family to get a job in the medical field and hopefully later on a anesthesiologist. All of these of mind are to help people but to also help my family by getting a good job to help make a brighter future for our family.
"This growing pressure keeps growing, keep going." I love this sentence, both in its meaning, and Jessica's own voice. And the dance moves throughout the songs, are amazing. The fact that they were done by real dancers as a model.
“Give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would have pulled you under” hits me every time. This song alone got me to watch this movie.
Same, I heard this song first on Facebook, I watched the movie immediately after watching the song. I love her character, she is incredibly relatable. All of them are relatable in one form or another.
That line immediately reminded me of the family funerals we've been to where my grief took a back seat so I could be there for my brothers. I'm not physically strong at all, but I'm definitely the one who can put aside my own issues to get things done. And ik that when my parents die (hopefully in the long distant future), it'll be the same way.
"Give it to your sister and never Wonder, if the same pressure would pull you under???" This is my favorite line 🥺🥺🥺🥺 as a man I feel this way about my younger siblings I'd rather go through the pain so that they don't have to and they know that they can always give it to me and I'll help ❤
I love that her insecurities aren't "I'm not pretty like Isabella" or something like that. She is proud of who she is, but it also comes with its own insecurities. "Am I strong enough? Can I carry all of this? I have to, the family depends on me" Gotta love Luisa.
As someone who grew up as this sibling, it's also just this constant pain of "I have to help everyone, and I can't show any weakness ever because everyone looks to me for strength. I can never complain, but my family has no one else to count on." Due to that wiring, people that feel this have never made a song about it before. It cuts deep right to the way that feels. Honestly, you are too caught up in essentially being what your parents are supposed to be that you don't have time to be a kid that worries if you are as pretty as one of your sisters.
The fact that this movie isn't so shy about showing the problems of seemingly perfect characters since it's a kid's movie is the very reason why so many people love Encanto. I hope Disney keeps making more characters like this
This whole song is nothing but bars. And great message of how many deal with struggles and keep going. two of my favorite bars is : "Diamonds and Platinum, I find'em and flatten'em. and Pressure's like a drip drip drip that'll never stop. Whoa! Pressure that'll tip tip tip til you ready to pop! Luissa killed this..man
Everyone’s talking about “we don’t talk about Bruno” but I like this song it’s pretty good. Props to Jessica Darrow her vocals are insane. Was gonna skip this movie but I’m so glad I watched it. I hope they make a Disney+ series for the other characters. Also fun fact you might not have noticed the ship says madrigal.
Honestly, I think that EVERY older sibling feels this way xD So much pressure to keep the family together, pressure to protect the siblings, etc. Take your pick
From a composer’s perspective, the way all the family members have different genres/vibes to their songs is absolutely genius, especially the way they play with it in we don’t talk about Bruno
shes my favourite but i dont watch disney movies so idk any better chars and in my opinion theres probably no better one (in MY opinion, i dont care if its wrong to you or anyone else)
As the oldest brother (30 yo) , I have a younger brother (25) and a pre teen sister. This song hit home, specially the “I’m pretty sure I’m worthless, if I can’t be of service.” with parents who do not speak English, and having to learn everything on my own. On a funny note… that eye twitch is so real 😂 specially when stress hits
We don't talk about Bruno is such a masterpiece, but this song is the one that is so relatable it hurts. I love that immediately after the song ends Luisa gets a hug, because girl needs it!
Indeed. Any person who has been "that person" for their family or pseudo-family knows this feeling. I couldn't talk about this song to anyone without choking up. It hits home way too hard, heh
Yeah this one is hands down better than "...Bruno" imo. I don't get why that one gets all the press when this one is not only extremely relatable but also insanely catchy
One of the most telling things is that even while she’s singing about struggling to be good enough, in the clip she’s still only focused on protecting Mirabel (from falling things and such) I know it isn’t a part of what actually happens in the story, but it shows just how dedicated she is to her family.
“Give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would’ve pulled you under” 3:07 girl, you have a beautiful voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. Edit: thanks for all the likes 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
the whole song is meaningful and deeply touches the heart, the pain and everything thats under our mask. Luisa's face at the end. Seriously, broke my heart.
for me, it wasn't the ending face but the one at 2:36 that gets me- where she's looking at her sister as she's slowly losing her grip on the rocks piling on her. It's like her little moment of weakness before snapping out of it and putting on her strong face again as the friggin house falls on her.
Can we just talk about how emotional the part where everything falling on her is and how worried Maribel is but she knows it’s not something she could do. It just hits so hard 😩
I love how, even though Luisa is struggling with all of her pressure, she still, through the song, cares for Mirabel. Always catching the rocks before they fall, standing in front of the boulders, stopping to adjust her glasses, etc. It just shows her character and how good of a sister she is.
Love this song, as the young sibling it makes a person realise some things about your oldest sister. I also loved how the donkey were afraid then were dancing along near the end. 😂
She beats up obstacles with power and thrust while she carries and holds her sister gently and delicately. She knows how to balance strength and tenderness. Edit: Please be nice to Whitebolls92. We disney kids know better than to be mean.
@@whiteydiamond does that mean it can't be analyzed or have a thought out response to it? This false narrative on cartoons is so dumb lol.

@@whiteydiamond and cartoons can be deeper than what is shown. Why did you even comment that? Looks to me like you’re the one that needs to simmer down because you felt some kind of way so much you had to comment.
"I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service." "Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt, see if she can handle every family burden." "Give it to your sister and never wonder, if the same pressure would've pulled you under." As an older sister of 4 who has been babysitting since I was 9 or 10 and has had some difficult conversations with my parents, I relate to these lines a bit too much.

I just love how throughout this song she's protective of Mirabel, like how she fixes her glasses its just a small but cute lovable gesture 🥺
And that she saying she's not strong enough
Cause it show that she doesn't want to fail or fall down on her knees
You can hear the tone of voice her voice that she doesn't want to fall down
I was hoping I wasn't the only that noticed that
@TommyGaming 🅥 why are you pretending to be someone you're not
Dang it I was going to comment that lol
She takes care of her and immediately blocks her from any threat. Even the "keep Going" feels like it's advice for maribel. The rest of the song is catharsis but that moment is for her sister.
“Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks…no mistakes” why am I so emotional every time this line comes?
same!
Same!
Same!
same!
You'll always make mistakes... but never catch a break.
I am the oldest sister and this song gets me every single time and brings me to tears. It's sad to see how families put a lot of burden and expectations into a brand new little life. That is why many of us, the oldest siblings out there have in common feeling unheard, not validated, unseen, as if you were going to solve all the family issues yet you have in your power to work on this, transform it, and let it go to prevent passing, as much as you can, to next generations. Personally, this song and let it go from Frozen are two really powerful songs with great lyrics.
Yeah I'm The oldest sibling in my family and I relate to most of the things she's singing
Me too except I am an only child and I still can relate
i’m the youngest and have 2 older brothers so in a way i can somewhat relate to all 3 sisters
Same I relate so much I cried the whole time.
Just a reminder here that Luisa is the middle child lol
The last clip where she literally has the entire weight of the WHOLE town on her shoulders! Such a powerful song. Really makes you think about your own family and the roles people have.
true
And the sun
Guess Luisa carries the whole solar system
Applaud this goddess👏👏👏
She compares herself to Hercules but the song keeps comparing her to another figure. Atlas. Weight of the world literally on her shoulders in several segments of the song.

For real I relate to her strugle my dad had multiple heart attacks when I was a kid and being the only boy I kinda got all the responsibility
I am OBSSESSED with the “drip drip drip” and the “no cracks, no breaks, no mistakes” at the end. This song is so good
same here
FRR
I Agree ! :)
SAMEE
Same omlll
This song is absolutely brilliant in that it takes a character that could be a 1-dimensional, the super physically strong character and then gave her an insane amount of depth in a single song.
Its like...the entire theme of the movie. They even spell it out in the end. Everyone is more than their abilities.
@@Tophatism I really like that. Also, it shows in how Abuella is one of the most important characters, but doesn't show any powers.
Would have preferred way more time with the character honestly
Mmhmm
She has as much depth as a narcissistic martyr who views human interaction and self-sacrifice as a curse.
The short, happy break before the main chorus comes back is genuinely depressing. It represents that indescribable feeling so well. You get a moment to rest, only to immediately be put back under stress again. You're so used to it by that point that you don't even feel anything but an "ok..." anymore.
"I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service"
That line is like a gut punch every time.
No actually that is very unintelligent to think of basing ones worth on that.
Maybe but it’s still something a lot of people feel.
I still feel this way at times. It's such a hard yoke to break!
@@smartypants3919 It’s not really a choice if you were raised that way, it’s not “unintelligent”
@@smartypants3919 it's not unintelligent. Unrealistic...yes. but it's a reality for many individuals especially if they r the eldest or first generation immigrants or first time college students for their family. As the eldest who checks all these boxes that line really hits home, because u r indeed made to feel worthless or useless if u aren't always helping ur family. Or made to feel selfish if u chose to put urself first and do 1 thing for u alone
"Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden" and " I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service" are the lines that absolutely slay me
For me it’s those but also “give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressures could’ve pulled you under” 😦
I always cry everytime I listen to that part
I crying rn😢
That reminds me off my sister
Felt - i love how i see myself in so many characters 😫

"Family is burden"
- Disney
No wonder they're crumbling
@@ko7577 ?? thats not what the line meant at all ?? it states that every burden that the family carries was being carried by the eldest, not that the family is burden itself. how did u manage to completely change the message . if there r financial problems , THATS the burden to the family

@@fizzysooda4772 thx. Much appreciated! 😊
I know it’s so precious, even while telling her how hurt she is she can’t ever stop (in her eyes, and because of Abuelas influence) she’s still helping while being vulnerable. The hug at the end was so precious, my favorite part in the movie tbh.
And when Mira looks uncomfortable or scared by Luisa’s strength and the burden she’s carrying, that’s when Luisa starts dancing. Even though she’s still singing about her burdens and struggles, she’s doing a fun dance as if to show Mirabel “see, it’s okay. We’re having fun” even though the fun part is all on the outside. It’s just for show to make Mirabel feel better.
Who’s here in 2024? Edit:Yeah this is the most liked comment I’ve ever gotten

Hola

a know it’s probably obvious but the visuals and idea of physical “pressure” are amazing representations of what mental pressure really feels like. This song and Luisa’s whole character profile is so relatable and I think that’s why everyone loves this song so much. It’s so common to feel this pressure and the physical representations of it really get the point across.
Watch as she buckles and bends but never breaks, no mistakes" and "give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would have pulled you under" both those lines and how they were delivered were simply phenomenal.
ruclips.net/video/e5v9xM_gUQc/видео.html work
As well as the bit JUST before that first one. "Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle the family burden"
That's facts 💯 👌🏽
Por donde estás p it rd go o ok go if fooo
Appeals to me
Throughout the song, she is protecting Mirabel from everything still.
She’s still smiling, still fighting, still protecting the whole time.
Also, she says “a light wind blows,” but it is a tornado. Showing how much she withstands.
I also like how they show “the weight of the world” on her, and how she catches everything to protect Mirabel and the donkeys (which is a good name for her family lol)
She was able to lift everything except her door, which she struggled to hold up despite the fact that its just light wood.
@@icantthinkofaname8139 yeah i think the door is a metaphor of the familys problem showing her physical and how her mental state is declining

no te en tiendo no adiós inglés
as an eldest sibling here, I remember trying not to cry here since my sister and brother are watching Encanto with me so I don't want to show them that I'm being affected by this song since I don't want to put guilt on them, I especially relate to the lyrics "give it to your sister, your sister's stronger" we're always expected to be the strong one, I remember how my aunt told me in the hospital that I can't cry or breakdown infront of my dad or my siblings even tho I'm literally dying inside when my mom died. it hurts how my mom was already buried but I still couldn't cry and only brokedown when I no longer can't hold it, I cried on my friend's shoulder in a school toilet when I returned after missing months of class because I got told that I might need to repeat my whole school year (fortunately my History teacher helped me reaching out to my other subject teachers)
Hope you are hanging in there, I'm sorry you have gone through so much and just hope you are feeling like you can cry / talk when you want and need to.
I’m sorry for your loss, you are incredibly strong and I don’t think it’s wrong to show weakness you aunt isnt right and shouldn’t say that
As the eldest and "responsible one", who always seems to be running around putting out fires and is first to be looked to for solutions to problems, this hit hard.
I'm the eldest, not just of my parents but of the whole generation for my family, I was expected to be responsible. This song is like everything I felt all in that short number
Frr us oldest siblings always have it the hardest (just my opinion) 😢
@@jd_knight90 Oh my God, you were expected to be responsible and care for other people?
What a burden that must be lol
@@M_Noeli Actually, middle children have it the hardest and later on in life have the most trouble. The oldest is usually held up as an example to them and viewed as more of a "golden child."
@@ko7577 it varies between families who's treated lesser, my family, my mom used to abuse my youngest brother the most thank goodness we are out of that house now 🙏🏻
"Under the surface, was Hercules ever like 'yo I don't wanna fight Cerberus'"
This line has a major effect in my opinion cause its an entertaining and deep metaphor about having huge things expected of you with no regard over whether its what you want
It's a little clunky, but it works.
And still pick up the sword and shield and still be able defeating the Cerberus
And the thing is? Hercules almost certainly didn’t want to fight Cerberus. The only reason he set out to do the Herculean Tasks he became so famous for is cuz the Greek gods had Hercules suffer years of servitude at the hands of some dipshit king who wanted Hercules to fail.
@@kyracaral1804 I think we're overthinking it.
@@thekinginyellow7777 that's the REAL fun part
Everyone is understandably in awe of her appearance, being feminine with big muscles, but what stood out to me was her voice. Having a character with a deep voice that is still celebrated in song and isn't at any point the butt of the joke is so rare, I love it so much.
Yeah me too! Her voice was the first that took my attention and that made me come back to listen the song again and again. I also love the glotal stop when she says moun'ains. Strong, buff, but still feminine. I love Luisa too. I loved the endscene where she's slung in a hammock and offered a drink, like "Here girl, you damn well deserved this. Enjoy."
As a deep voiced woman this stood out so much. Alto women are the villains or the old maids. Not the reliable, beloved sibling. My whole life I've had one Disney song that wasn't a guys part I could sing and it was Ursula who was based on a drag queen. That's what people think of my deep voice. There are a handful of songs by some of the mezzo-soprano princesses that I can sing, but those are few and far between and often have a high note that kills it. But here's a true alto song by a character who's not elderly and not evil.
Even moreso, when she sings about her confidence, her voice is deep. When she's singing about her dreams and fears, it's higher. So confidence is shown as deep, anxiety as high.
I think, historically, people have pigeonholed female vocal ranges . It took a long time to recognize the value of black gospel song styles that defy the "rules" of mainstream vocal training.
This and Lego Movie 2's Not Evil (Tiffany Haddish) both push the limits, being great songs with female vocalists that don't have the "standard female vocal" delivery.
@@murrfeeling i mean over the years deeper male voices have been pushed out of the industry too, at least in terms of standalone music.
I don’t now if anyone’s said this, but I LOVE the animation during the musical numbers. It’s just buttery smooth, and I love the visual language that shows how she’s buckling under the pressure on the inside, while the lyrics are mostly her trying to keep things together on the outside.
It has life and passion unlike wish
Oddly enough, i appreciate this song more as a younger sibling. It genuinely reminds me of my older siblings about the pressure they feel as the oldest and the ones who have the weight of our parents' expectations on them constantly. How often they protected the younger siblings from feeling such things
I absolutely LOVE the detail of the final 'domino' Luisa is struggling to hold up is her own door, showcasing the tremendous weight of it and how hard it is to carry the responsibility of having one of the strongest gifts in her family. Feeling the need to protect everyone because of it, especially her younger sister Mirabel. She may be able to move mountains and churches but nothing is heavier than the burden of having your beloved town and family rest on your shoulders.
Similar I like the scene from 2:30 on! Red for danger as the pressure piles on with the saddness and fear on her, blue for safety as she protects them all as she is confident and unwavering. It really shows how she is feeling compared to what she shows and does.
@@nightbane2889 Adding on to this: the blue there representing safety is ironic, as the blue appears with their house, and that's what nearly puts her under, more than any of the other things she lifts. It shows even more so that while she protects her family from danger, the biggest danger to her is them, and the pressure they place on her. I know that's what the entire song's about, but they show tell it again, all of it, right there with the colors and house.

Yo i made an oc on a game (on roblox called gacha online) And my gf says : That oc looks like Rin Okumura : And i looked him up and it did XD
The line "Was Hercules ever like 'Yo I dont wanna fight Cerberus'" is severely underrated in my opinion because this line equates the duty/responsibility that was expected of Hercules to the duties/responsibilities Luisa just assumes
I think eis more like be stronger dont make you more fearless... Luisa is the only one she can fight any danger even if she is to scared for doing so, is you do or you do... She can have fear or anything.
There were tons of examples they could have gone for there. They picked a great one, because it frames her mindset perfectly. The absurd level or thought that went into this film is a huge part of what makes it so good.
Shut up
Hercules had to do "labors" that he probably didn't want to do, for the faults of another (Hera). Luisa has so much pressure from her abuela to do all these things she doesn't want to do too. Some from the movie being rerouting rivers, fixing leaning houses, rounding up donkeys and carrying them on her back, etc. She's the only one you see through the movie constantly working, even when she loses her gift. It isn't assumed, it's laid out clear as day.
@@JosePerez-sy2jc no lol
“Give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would’ve pulled you under” I sing this line in my head almost every day.
I like how further into the song she seems more confident or happier because all that worry she had,she was able to talk it out and feel relieved to get it out of her chest
To me, the best part is that Mirabel isn’t ever afraid of Luisa. She shows confusion and concern when Luisa starts freaking out, but Luisa is never treated as a freak or monster. Instead, Mirabel clings to her sister for comfort and protection. I love it
at the beginning I think she was a little scared but as the song goes on she relates to her and stops being afraid. Luisa is probably the nicest to Mirabel in the family for example luisa said “watch out sis” instead of isabela’s “stop being in the way sis”
@@celesteigo231 I think she was worried rather than afraid. The donkeys were for sure afraid, though
SHE EVEN HUGGED HER AT THE END 😭😭😭😭
Common big sister behavior it's hard more spécificités for multiples
@sugarush magnolia 🌸 Sort of... being overly emotional is seen as a negative as far as the movie is concerned (The most emotional character in the movie is considered a total joke that isn't worth considering and the movie never stops relentlessly tormenting her), and a lot of the movie seems to deem controlling one's emotions as the positive, but not to the point of denial.
.
The main reason why the movie doesn't treat emotion as the enemy is because the movie is an "internal" battle, not an external one (not even an externalized battle). An external battle tends favor rising above your emotions. A internal battle tends to favor becoming one with your emotions.
Ya know it’s probably obvious but the visuals and idea of physical “pressure” are amazing representations of what mental pressure really feels like. This song and Luisa’s whole character profile is so relatable and I think that’s why everyone loves this song so much. It’s so common to feel this pressure and the physical representations of it really get the point across.
Yes! I also love how, even tho it's her song and we are seeing *her* internal struggles, she still puts Mirabel as a priority in every step and tries to keep her safe, for she's protecting her not only from physical harm but also from her mental burdens
@@flo6051 yes! She’s such a good representation of protective siblings too!

Love how this song reaches out to so many people, especially older siblings as you’re expected to take care of your younger siblings when you’re parents aren’t around while also needing to deal with school and a job in some cases. It feels like too much and as if a single mistake will ruin everything so you push yourself into a situation where you feel as if you’re carrying your family on your back
This song is so relatable. Give the songwriter an award already!
“I’m pretty sure I’m worthless if I can’t be of service”
Even as someone who has no siblings, this hit hard
I USED to fell like that, but them I realized nobody really cared, my siblings were even more independent than me, then I decided to live selfishly: I decide what I want to do and I measure my own worth, as the saying goes: “before you take care of others you have to be able to take care of yourself”
Same. I'm also an only child, and I constantly put others above myself and do everything I can to help other people because I think it's what I should do, and I only feel satisfied with myself and my actions if it's benefiting someone else and helping or making them happy.
I’m the younger sibling but I’ve gotten hit by it anyway
i feel you
as an only child I feel you. I make one tiny mistake my dad goes beserk and I get damaged emotionally. I wish they would inflict the pain physically cause that would heal. These things made me develop depression and sometimes I just dont eat. One day I got hurt really bad emotionally and i didnt eat. Skipped breakfast, skipped snack,skipped lunch and ate like a tiny portion when it was dinner. I just wish my parents would be happier and proud of me.
The facial expressions in this movie are everything to me. They do a really good job of enhancing and enforcing the idea and mood of the scene.
I know right especially in we don't talk about Bruno pepe facial expressions shows so muchhhh and i hardly see anyone talking about it
I agree!! The body language is amazing as well! Facial expressions and body language are most important parts of communication so it's amazing to see it done so well in animation. Makes them seem way more realistic!
I know right, it’s really well made
This movie is a masterclass on cloth simulation. The way all the dresses flow. The shirts rincle and stretch. I can not get over the fabrics in this movie.
I love movies that you can watch it several times and see something different each time. This movie was well made.
The “No Pressure” at the end always brings me to tears disney is truly marvelous musically😢
I love the small details here, when Luisa is all alone, the house crushes her for a second, but when Mirabel is under, she manages to carry all of it. I would love to know more about the relationship Mirabel has with her sisters, and maybe even her cousins.
You could kinda see it in the film:
Isabella thinks Mirabel is always in the way but allows her to be herself
Luisa doesn't wanna be a burden on her
Antonio is like the brother she never had
Dolores is the one who knows ALL the tea
Camilo is more of a jokester
@@ItIsOnlyJonathan Dolores isn’t really a gossip girl she has to keep EVERY secret to herself and she slipped one one that was very important
@@ItIsOnlyJonathan
Also Luisa is mostly civil with her. Not resentful or standoffish like Isabella. Camillo I'd also civil.
Technically Mirabel wasn't given a gift but she was like the carrier of the Encanto because of her family values. She made the house come back to life, she basically predicted Antonio's gift, she wanted to make her grandma proud, as she learned more about all her family members she no longer only worked to fix the magic but promised them all a better life once it was all solved, making Bruno come back, Luisa take a break, Isabella be herself and not marry who she doesn't want, hook up Dolores with who she thought she'd never end up with
I'm hoping Encanto gets a stage version or a TV show spinoff, so we can see more of everybody.
2:33 I love that during this whole part Mirabel really sees past everything and has a connection with her sister. You can see in her face how devastated she is to see her sister under so much weight. But then Luisa breaks into dance and makes it fun again as not to worry Mirabel because this whole time she's been protecting her both physically and emotionally.
I truly believe that the house didn’t give Mirabel a gift because she didn’t need one: her innate empathy is the greatest gift to her family.
@@ganbarazan good point 👍
I think my favorite part is after the song when Mirabel just hugs her and says she does too much.
@@ten5h1 oh definitely! mirabel's such a lovely character
such a lovely detail omg
I love how in almost every shot pretty much she was protecting her little sister. Really pushing home how much she is there for her family "in service" to them as her only purpose, and that scene where she's holding her over the steep cliff and it cracks translates to me that doing that is breaking her, constantly dragging her down to save everyone, to hold them up. Pressure in other words. Its a really good song made better with good visuals.
I love how during the song, even though Luisa is letting out her insecurity and stress of being the strongest one in the family, she still keeps Mirabel safe. Its quite cute and its genuinely sweet to see. Despite her being tired and stressed and everything, she doesnt take it out on Mirabel. She saves her from danger with her strength, aka what shes stressed and what shes pressured about, which I find genuienly heart wrenching. Its bittersweet...and i love it
Oh, not to mention how despite her brute strength, she's gentle to Mirabel, like how she carefully adjusts her glasses.
"I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service." And "Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden." Hit me in the chest watching this. The pressure of always being the strong one and carrying the weight of everything is such a universal experience, but we all seem to have different pieces that specifically resonate with each of us. Another masterpiece by Lin Manual Miranda and what a phenomenal big screen debut for Jessica Farrow. Was shocked when she didn't have any other discography listed.

"give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt and see if she can handle every family burden" made me ugly cry in the movies, the writing in this song is impeccable.
considering it was written by lin manuel miranda (hamilton, 21 chump street, in the heights, etc…) yep!
All the lyrics for Encanto’s 8 songs were written by Lin-Manuel Miranda…creator and writer of Hamilton the Musical and In The Heights musical and movie. The music for Encanto was composed by Germaine Franco, an award-winning Mexican-American composer.
That line out this song played in my head over and over and over.
Interestingly, when Lin Manuel Miranda wrote that song, he had his older sister in mind!
The second time I heard it was when it hit me. Those lyrics play in my head over and over. Today I send my mother this song... She still doesn't get it. Unlike the movie my family doesn't get a happy ending with a reunion. I ran away from them before I wasted more years of my life alone and broken for people who don't see me or my struggles. They just expect things of me because I'm family. 😭
After years it still hits so hard to hear this song and makes me tear up. Absolute masterpiece

@@ko7577 Um sorry? it isnt about that stuff lets visualize 2 parents are fighting or planning to break up for the better of the child, the child holds it all together since theyre everything to the parents at the moment, now lets say about 5 years later a sibling appears the child loves them but the parent disregards the other child not giving them attention even though the child was the only reason the could have lived happily still together, the child would understand yes but every year they get disregarded even more to the point they feel unnoticed and ONLY noticed when they do something bad purposefully or accident now 8 years later the younger sibling reaches puberty the same age the other child had to take most of the responsibilities u expect them to follow in ur steps but no, ur parents have changed their minds they let ur younger sibling do anything while ur childhood was taken away, this often leads to most older siblings to feel betrayed, this might also be the cause of the way the generations teaching to their children, if this parental behaviour started from ur great grandma lets say and ur mom is mimicking her mom which is mimicking her mom, this means this wont end until the awareness of the children, but usually since the first child holds everything together they are the only ones changing whilst the younger siblings mimick their mother since they recieved different treatment.
"Was Hercules ever like 'Yo, i don't wanna fight Cerberus?'" For real. This song is so relatable. My favorite Disney song to date.
so you're saying that the "Was Hercules ever like 'Yo, i don't wanna fight Cerberus?'' is the relatable part?
@@xblox1 not wanting to do something but still doing it.
@@ouran1290 yeah i know it was a joke :)
This is not one of any of my friends favorite songs, but totally disagree
@@xblox1 yes. I am Hercules i can confirm
The moment at 2:43 absolutely wrenches my gut every single time.
“Give it to your sister, it doesn’t hurt. And see if she can handle every family burden” as you can see the tears she’s holding back while the crushing weight of the boulders emphasize the crushing weight of expectation that she’s been holding back.
It’s not only extremely gut-punching, but just purely an extremely relatable feeling and it just… wow
i agree
It's the ending for me 3:05 when she says "Give it to your sister and never wonder
If the same pressure would've pulled you under". Abuela especially never allowed her to be vulnerable.
@@lisatc266 Oh my god yes. This line really almost made me cry, its so sad
Story of my life 😩😩 I have that part on replay too
Especially how gently she places her away from harm, regardless of how imminent the danger is. Without question, almost as if it were muscle memory, she puts herself in-between her sister and harm.
It's not only a really good beat. its deep meaning and the emotions too that makes it perfect. A lot of people can relat to it easily
2:20 ''This growing pressure, keeps growing keep going, Cause all we know is'' Im so obsessed with that part😋
Personally, I think the reason we see that Luisa is constantly protecting Mirabel in this song is because she never wants her to feel how Luisa thinks shed feel without her gift (worthless). The difference between Luisas relationship with Mirabel and Isas relationship with Mirabel is really cool to see. Luise clearly loves Mirabel so much and wants to her/protect her, whereas Isa sees Mirabel as "getting off easy". She doesnt have a gift, so Isa sees that as he not having to provide anything for the town or family. This movie is so good.
That hit home
And just to add, you have to think for everything Luisa is going through (the idea she's only useful for what she can provide) she can relate to that "worthless" feeling; her strength isn't really "hers" but for the benefit of everyone around her. There's a kindred spirit there, and being the older sibling, a protective instinct (obviously.)
So, so much depth. And as the younger siblings myself, I can see Luisa in my sister a bit: stronger than she ever should have had to be. ❤
like Luisa, Isa is pressured to be perfect. And she sees Mirabel being free and easy to mess around because she has no gift and responsibility.
@Ban this youtube YES! I feel much like that. I feel like I can never show my brother that I am weak, even though he already knows that, but I feel that he feels that double. Because though he is the "baby" of the family, he is the strongest (mentally, and emotionally) and he doesn't want us to see him in his weakness, and he is condoling us and giving therapy!
Now that you mention it, Isa didn't care if Mirabel got smacked around in the early part of her song lol. The more you think about this movie, the better it gets
the beautiful face expressions when shes taking on the rocks and then the house. the fear in her eyes as she looks at her sister, asking for help, but then she realizes she has to handle it herself- so she looks away. its fucking beautiful..
The look in her eyes at the end was so powerfully animated.
ruclips.net/video/e5v9xM_gUQc/видео.html relax
Yes! So many beautiful details!
I don't think it's her asking for help. It's her realizing the fallout if she isn't strong enough, i.e. her sister's demise. She can't stop because her family depends on her. So she's able to find the strength to do what she's always done.
@@incaseofamnesia6380 Honestly, I tear up at this spot every time. Like the anxiety and weight she has to carry, and the fear of the fallout. Ugh! Such a real thing!
"Who am I if I can't carry it all?" that's the line that hit hard
Well if people can't carry it all, they end up homeless, starving, and alone, so I hope this character realizes that what she's experiencing is just... life
@ko7577 your mummy probably didn't teach you mental health is a thing did she honey?She didn't tell you that people often have mental issues and not only physical ones, conditions that they just can't deal with alone, and they get treated for them huh? How about you go to a psychiatrist to find out? And solve that shtload of issues you've got going on? Who hurt you hun? Educate urself before you come back here, you're pitiful
"Give her all the heavy things, we can't shoulder"
"Give it to your sister and never wonder, if the same pressure would have pulled you under"...you can really see in this song, and also especially these lines, that she has the most pressure to carry than the family, but she needs to stay strong because everybody expects that from her....This is my favorite disney song, because it really shows the flaws of being the oldest of the family and still needs to be perfect, or the family would break
not to be rude, but not all older children have all the responsibilities and stuff. the oldest isnt the care holder of the family, ur only saying that bc ur the oldest..my brother is the oldest and all he has to do is game all day, and the family wont break because of you u arent the boss the parents are 💀
I get that's it's not true for you, but that comment was a bit rude. It's true for them and a lot of other people and generally the oldest does end up with a lot more responsibility, even if you don't always see it. And there are a lot of people with absent parents or who have to take on more pressure even if their parents are there just because of personal things
@@luvemrie LMM said he wrote this song with his older sister in mind, because she had to take on the burden of being a third parent for him when his parents were busy or unable to be around. So, you know, it is specifically speaking from the perspective of an older sibling.
@@luvemrie yeah everyone's experience is different, in my house my older sister is the most pressured
She's not even the oldest. She's the middle child.
She’s the highlight of the movie, honestly. I thought she was going to be “I’m a female and I’m strong but men underestimate me.” But I was extremely pleasantly surprised when it explored her inner feelings.
My favorite part was that they didn’t pull attention to the fact that she’s a super muscular woman. They treated like a normal thing which it should be.
@@thisijchipguy4009 absolutely agree
"I am female and strong and DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA THE PRESSURE THE FAMILY PUTS ON ME?!" I absolutely love Luisa for being so relatable. I mean. Im not female, or strong, but I do have anxiety, and comments like "Im pretty sure Im worthless if I cant be of service" are so aggressively relatable.
@@stanieldasboot953 Those lyrics make me cry 😭 I've bent over backwards so hard to try to get my parents and family to love me but they never did ☹️ I literally have a spiral injury from being abused, people only see me as a workhorse, a maid, a personal assistant, or their therapist. Nobody in my family ever liked me for who I am, they don't even know who I am. I tried to do everything I could for them but once they finally stretched me too thin and I stopped trying to win their approval, they disown me 😑
I mean its her gift to be strong, I don't think any man in the encanto universe is no where near as strong as her.
I have two younger siblings, I watched this movie with my little sister because she begged me to watch it. I sobbed in front of her during this scene, it’s the hardest thing to talk about as an older sibling. but it doesn’t matter if your parents are neglectful or not, the weight of an older sibling is always there. Everything Luisa says is so true and important. And as much as I can argue with my siblings sometimes, as much as an older sibling fights with their younger siblings, you can never truly hate them. I hated the movie at first because it resembled my life so much, the family fights and arguments, but after I got over it I made sure to hug my mom and brother and sister, and tell them I love them. I realize how this movie helped me grow, at the time I was a teenager and I always fought my mom 😂 like teens do. But I realized we were all struggling, and this movie helped me realize that.
I went on a bit of a rant there but Disney should know how much I appreciate this movie ❤ and how important it is to realize the mental health matters, I love how they portrayed it for younger kids
it's "if I could shake this crushing weight of expectations would that free some room up for joy or relaxation" for me
Mirabel's gift is to turn people's inner thoughts and emotions into fully choreographed music videos
Edit: holy shite this blew up
I totally thought that was going to be the big reveal in the movie haha. I thought the grandma interrupting the opening song with a confused expression was a hint in that direction and then how no one sings or dances unless Mirabell is in the scene with them.
@@FallenAngelKystre honestly if her gift was hidden and was just her visualising music videos like she’s in Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist it would’ve made sense
SPOILER!! She doesn't have a gift because the door disappeared when she tried to open it
Her gift is keeping the family united
She spoiler
Is to become the family head and take over as the holder of the candle and to keep the harmony
I like how donkeys are everywhere in the song.
Donkey do a lot of carrying and heavy lifting. They carry and carry and carry without getting tired for a long time. They are a literal symbolism of how louisa is being used as a pack mule by her family and the entire village.
When the relaxation scene came on the donkeys have horns on them to portray that they are pretending to be unicorns. The donkeys want to be carefree and happy like unicorns because to the donkeys the unicorns don't have the trouble that they do.
Louisa wants to relax and be like the 'unicorns'. She needs a break but doesn't want to lose her value and bonds by not being there to do things for others. So instead she begins taking on the weight of the world out of love for others and a feeling of obligation towards the encanto y la familia.
She puts on a facade of being unbreakable (the three ringed circus) and always ok but the pressure and stress is slowly building up until she feels like she is going to pop (the guesser feild)
This comment is underrated.
Unicorns could also represent how he doesnt see it as possible,like that kind of freedom would be fairytale levels of unachieveable for her on the position she is in
@@thewindysage1538 your mind
Omg... so true.
Yo! Never thought about the symbolism of Louisa’s struggle to the donkeys! This comment 🔥🔥🔥
this is my favorite song from the movie. I love how she talks about stress and pressure.
As the oldest sister, that had to deal with depression and the damage my parents inflicted to the Psyche of me and my sisters.
This is the story of my life
I genuinely loved that so many of the things asked of Luisa were so trivial, but since her strength comes from magic she is under the family pressure to “earn” her miracle. The townspeople should have easily been able to round up all their own donkeys, but nope, have the strong girl do it. It made the ending so much more powerful when the rest of the town came to rebuild - magic made their lives easier, but the Madrigals are more than the sim of their gifts and don’t need them to find fulfillment. Edit: my bad on the name, y’all. Autocorrect is a bitch
Luisa*
Hey! That's my name

Let's be honest, this song hits hard for every older sibling but there's a very crucial part of the animation that needs to be talked about. When the final chorus starts, you can see Luisa afraid while holding the falling rocks. It's such a powerful and scary thing that perfectly enhances the weight of the lyrics.
Edit: so I'm seeing a lot of people talking about middle siblings and stuff. I'd like to clarify. "Older sibling" does not mean OLDEST sibling. I'm not the oldest, I'm the second of four. I was the middle child for 8 years. For those of you who would like attention for middle or even youngest children.
>_>
2:33
I'm not the older sibling but my sister left the house because my mom just gives everything to another person and blames them for everything. I always get blamed I'm never off duty she tells me one thing I do it but she claims she said something else or I messed up. To her I am never good enough. She does things that she says I'm never allowed to do
For me it hits for the message of wanting to carry my family under my shoulders even though I am the youngest sibling in my family at age 17 that will be going to college soon. I am always watching over my older siblings and helping them out with their task for I am the tallest member of my family so I can naturally help reach places that they cant reach naturally, as well my family is putting all their fate in me to accomplish my goal of becoming a RN and the first member of the family to get a job in the medical field and hopefully later on a anesthesiologist. All of these of mind are to help people but to also help my family by getting a good job to help make a brighter future for our family.
Weight of the lyrics! It's heavy indeed. Good pun.
This song has no right to go as hard as it does. Absolute banger.
True
Too true
"This growing pressure keeps growing, keep going." I love this sentence, both in its meaning, and Jessica's own voice. And the dance moves throughout the songs, are amazing. The fact that they were done by real dancers as a model.
I love how she carries her sister like she's a baby while avoiding the geysers
And boosts up into the sky like friggin' Superman. Pretty awesome
thats how you carry babies ? 😭💀

“Give it to your sister and never wonder if the same pressure would have pulled you under” hits me every time. This song alone got me to watch this movie.
Same, I heard this song first on Facebook, I watched the movie immediately after watching the song. I love her character, she is incredibly relatable. All of them are relatable in one form or another.
That line immediately reminded me of the family funerals we've been to where my grief took a back seat so I could be there for my brothers. I'm not physically strong at all, but I'm definitely the one who can put aside my own issues to get things done. And ik that when my parents die (hopefully in the long distant future), it'll be the same way.
same 😭
Emotional throughout the whole song. I cry when the stones fall. 😭😭
"Give it to your sister and never Wonder, if the same pressure would pull you under???" This is my favorite line 🥺🥺🥺🥺 as a man I feel this way about my younger siblings I'd rather go through the pain so that they don't have to and they know that they can always give it to me and I'll help ❤
I love that her insecurities aren't "I'm not pretty like Isabella" or something like that.
She is proud of who she is, but it also comes with its own insecurities. "Am I strong enough? Can I carry all of this? I have to, the family depends on me"
Gotta love Luisa.
This ♥️
This comment needs more likes so it always stays at top. It perfectly explained Luisa's characteristic in just few lines 👏👏👏
As a woman that loves weight lifting, Luisa is my favorite 😍 another woman that can bench press! 🙌
Absolutely my favorite character from Encanto.
As someone who grew up as this sibling, it's also just this constant pain of "I have to help everyone, and I can't show any weakness ever because everyone looks to me for strength. I can never complain, but my family has no one else to count on." Due to that wiring, people that feel this have never made a song about it before. It cuts deep right to the way that feels. Honestly, you are too caught up in essentially being what your parents are supposed to be that you don't have time to be a kid that worries if you are as pretty as one of your sisters.
The fact that this movie isn't so shy about showing the problems of seemingly perfect characters since it's a kid's movie is the very reason why so many people love Encanto. I hope Disney keeps making more characters like this

This whole song is nothing but bars. And great message of how many deal with struggles and keep going. two of my favorite bars is : "Diamonds and Platinum, I find'em and flatten'em. and Pressure's like a drip drip drip that'll never stop. Whoa! Pressure that'll tip tip tip til you ready to pop! Luissa killed this..man
Hands down favourite song of the movie.
Everyone’s talking about “we don’t talk about Bruno” but I like this song it’s pretty good. Props to Jessica Darrow her vocals are insane. Was gonna skip this movie but I’m so glad I watched it. I hope they make a Disney+ series for the other characters. Also fun fact you might not have noticed the ship says madrigal.

It's like Opal's songs. Everybody just talks about "Easy to breath" but for me the Mirror Man's song is the best.

@@crocpot6606 But you don’t have to be so weird and cringey about it
The hips when she bumps the rocks away. Amazing
Honestly, I think that EVERY older sibling feels this way xD So much pressure to keep the family together, pressure to protect the siblings, etc. Take your pick
the way this is one of the thematically best songs Disney has ever made
From a composer’s perspective, the way all the family members have different genres/vibes to their songs is absolutely genius, especially the way they play with it in we don’t talk about Bruno
Right, right??!! :)
A musical masterpiece indeed tbh

What about sing 2
She’s my fav Disney character for sure
I like Mirabel most
As the oldest brother (30 yo) , I have a younger brother (25) and a pre teen sister.
This song hit home, specially the “I’m pretty sure I’m worthless, if I can’t be of service.” with parents who do not speak English, and having to learn everything on my own.
On a funny note… that eye twitch is so real 😂 specially when stress hits
Never truly appreciated the struggles my oldest sister has to go through 🥺. Truly one of my inspirations ❤
We don't talk about Bruno is such a masterpiece, but this song is the one that is so relatable it hurts. I love that immediately after the song ends Luisa gets a hug, because girl needs it!
Indeed. Any person who has been "that person" for their family or pseudo-family knows this feeling. I couldn't talk about this song to anyone without choking up. It hits home way too hard, heh
I feel this is the best song, I’m not a fan of the Bruno song. This one is so good, and has such good lyrics.
Yeah this one is hands down better than "...Bruno" imo. I don't get why that one gets all the press when this one is not only extremely relatable but also insanely catchy
@@kierasher1 I want to lie and say that there isn’t one in my family but that’s a lie cause I am “that person”

One of the most telling things is that even while she’s singing about struggling to be good enough, in the clip she’s still only focused on protecting Mirabel (from falling things and such) I know it isn’t a part of what actually happens in the story, but it shows just how dedicated she is to her family.
She even clapped goddamn Cerberus to protect Mirabel.

I love how, even though Luisa is struggling with all of her pressure, she still, through the song, cares for Mirabel. Always catching the rocks before they fall, standing in front of the boulders, stopping to adjust her glasses, etc. It just shows her character and how good of a sister she is.

Luisa is just a powerful character, both literally and metaphorically.
I'm glad disney finally has real diversity in their main characters
That is a bad thing to say about her she is one of the best!
I love the way she smiles at Mirabel. Like, this hurts, it's awful, I won't let you go through that, I'll protect you little sister.

This song is actually scarily accurate to how it actually feels. I’m not even the oldest, but it is just so relatable
She beats up obstacles with power and thrust while she carries and holds her sister gently and delicately. She knows how to balance strength and tenderness.
Edit: Please be nice to Whitebolls92. We disney kids know better than to be mean.
