Disney was smart to hire Lin-Manuel for the music in this film. He nailed every song brilliantly.
Why mess with something that works? Miranda wrote the music for Moana, too.
Well he killed it in Moana so why wouldn’t he do it again
@@theunfortunateone7488 SERIOUSLY. if we can get more and more movies with his touch on them, i couldn’t ever complain. there’s not a song in encanto that felt like a skip. for me personally anyway 😩
💯 agreed!
He has a multi-picture deal with Disney.
My favorite detail is the order of verses. It starts with the protagonist's Aunt and Uncle, who knew Bruno personally, follows with an older cousin who knew Bruno as a child and the goes to a similarly-aged cousin who doesn't remember Bruno and is mostly making up stuff to freak her out.
Well actually- Camilo (the similarly-aged cousin) was about 5 or so when he last saw Bruno, so the line '7 feet tall' was just his memory of Bruno as a 5 year old-
@@cookielily8259 this actually isn't true, just a rumor spread around the internet. the director (jared bush) recently confirmed on twitter that camilo doesn't remember bruno at all. camilo is a similar age to mirabel, just a few months younger. so he knows abt as much as mirabel, but heard rumors from the family & took them to the next level cus that's just how he is lmfaoo.
@@LocalAres bruno left just after mirabel's ceremony when she was five, which means that camilo must have been at least five too when he last saw bruno. I do agree that camillo may have no recollection of bruno since he was very young
@@LocalAres Wait, how could Camilo be younger? Mirabel's was the last ceremony before the movie starts, so Camilo must be the older, even by just a few months.
@@LocalAres few months older*
context without spoilers everyone in the family except for the main character (girl in glasses) was given a gift/power. The powers(in order as you seen in this video) the first lady controls the weather with her emotions, girl in red dress can hear things really well, the next guy can shapeshift, and the girl in pink can make flowers etc. But Bruno's power was he could see the future. So obviously if you're hanging around somebody who mentions bad news about your future you wouldn't want to be around him. So Bruno left. I recommend "the family madrigal" for a better intro or better yet watch the movie!
they were not born with powers, they at 5 years old are given a gift / power
You just tell the Trailer
@@jetzieljgarciaalmeda3649 true
@@neontyler6663 And the synopsis of the movie, lol, it was the point
@@jetzieljgarciaalmeda3649 thats questionable. Antonio was clearly already close with animals,
I think they are born with the gift
they just dont activate it / get a room till they get their ceremony
Their gift is a part of them
Fun facts: Dolores, the one with super hearing, refers to him in present tense, and late in the song goes from “it’s like I hear him now” to just “I can hear him now” because she in fact knows exactly where he is.
As to Isabella. With the happy story, the last part of her song during the over lap is “and I’m fine and I’m fine I’m fine”. She seems to have the one good prediction,
But as the movie goes into later, she actually feels trapped by it, and does not want the life she currently has but doesn’t know how to tell everybody else who thinks everything is perfect.
Spoilers:
Im pretty sure the prophesy of the life of her dreams was about when she finally found her true self tho
I'm pretty sure that the "I can hear him now" it's about Mariano, because at the end of the film, Dolores declares herself to him, and then the two of them says:
Mariano: "Dolores...I see you"
Dolores: "And I hear you"
@@starlegends3092 Yeah, I can see the family and her thinking it meant a "Perfect" life, but really it was just the life SHE wants to live, because, she dreams of freedom.
@@beatrizf.beckhauser252 but at that moment she’s singing about Bruno. And even says in that later song “Yo, I knew he never left, I heard him every day”
@@selenaautufuga7597 ya! Exactly
Bruno's gift lets him see into someone's future, he doesn't control it but once you see it, it never changes. From what I know you gotta give consent, so idk why people are so horrible to him.
"Never changes?" *eyes Dolores' prophesy versus what actually happened during the movie*
@@kazzellinempanger8998 it never changes, luckily Bruno's vision didn't see anything more after, anything can change as long as you haven't seen it
Bruno is like an oracle or prophet in classic literature (Oracle of Delphi, Wyrd Sisters in "MacBeth", etc). The future is immutable, Bruno can only receive vague visions of the future, but it's still up to interpretation, which he can interpret incorrectly or incompletely.
With Tia Pepa, he actually didn't view her future. He was empathetic and could see she was nervous on her wedding day and was trying to comfort her. Pepa's nerves made it rain, and the more she made it rain, the more nervous she got, creating a feedback loop.
disagree there. He specifically says that his vision was changing, depending on what Mirabel does. They show the prophecy glass change depending on how you looked at it showing that it was in flux.
and the "man of her dreams would be just out of reach. betrothed to another" That changed once it was revealed that Isabella didn't like the dude.
It actually seems more like self-fulfilling prophecy.
I'd just like to clarify that the music in Encanto was not all by Lin Manuel Miranda.
The songs the characters sung were by Lin Manuel Miranda.
The Score were by Germaine Franco.
They both deserve credit for how beautiful the whole movie sounded and you should definitely watch and listen to it.
Thanks for the clarification! I just bought the full soundtrack, and it includes all of the score pieces by Germaine Franco and I love everything. I put the Franco songs on a separate playlist so I could listen to them during work
Thank you!
The Score is on fire!! 🔥😍😍 Germaine is amazing
Germaine Franco is freaking brilliant. Thanx for the shout out.
Yes!! Agreed.
"we don't talk about bruno!"
**proceeds to talk about bruno**
They didnt talk about bruno, they sang a song about him😌
The whole song is bunch of “gossiping”.
Like people always said, “don’t tell anyone”, “we should not be talking about it but…”
And the last part with everyone singing in their own pace, it’s the mix up information cause it’s not real, just everyone having their own thoughts of the person.
I love it so much
Such a disney move... reminded me of highschool musical when chad sang i don't dance while dancing
There was a "but...", remember?
he didn’t SAY I COULDNT SIIIING
You definitely need to watch the whole movie. A real masterpiece, with a great message. Yes it is the same guy who did Hamilton and Moana.
And in the heights and Mary poppins returns and his dark materials and the new live action little mermaid when that comes out and tick tick boom. I don’t think I can think of anything else that he is associated with.
@@kathrynandersonmusicallover With how good his songs are he will definitely be doing many more.
What message ? I personnalité find it flat and feel like it could have been lire developped
@@kathrynandersonmusicallover vivo too
@@kisslove974 I think it was an ambitious messagge for a 1.30 hour movie to tackle and admittedly it's a bit undercooked, but its still a really good one
Fun Fact: In “We Don’t Talk About Bruno,” all the characters are singing over the same cord progression, but to different melodies.
It's what they call a "free skate" on Broadway - a layered song where each character is singing a different melody and yet they all become one unified song at the end - complicated, but unified! Not at all surprising coming from Lin-Manuel Miranda's genius.
Ha ha, I didn’t even realize till now that they’re all different songs.
@Sydney's Gacha anime No, that's not actually a real madrigal. It has a passing resemblance to it, but it's not a true madrigal.
@@AdamSanford you must be fun at parties… 🤮🤮🤮🤮
@@angieortizurena3327 I'm not good with people spreading incorrect information. Feel free to block me if that bothers you. Have a nice day.
Delores sums the whole Bruno situation up with "Always left Abuela and the family fumbling, grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand." Bruno gets way too much flack. These are self-fulfilling prophecies. Tia Pepa - who starts the song - controls the weather with her emotions, so when Bruno tells her it looks like rain SHE panics and creates a hurricane. And that lady's goldfish was going to die no matter what Bruno said because it wasn't being properly kept.
Dolores* 😉
I generally agree with "Don't shoot the messenger.", so generally agree that Bruno gets too munch undeserved flack, but funnily enough, the Tia thing is actually one of the few instances in which I think he *does* deserve blame. What we have here is a cognitohazard: it is reasonable for Bruno to expect that making Tia worried will cause Tia to hurt herself. It's his sister, he knows at least *that much* about her.
We later see that Bruno is a bit socially awkward with a dorky sense of humor. But he's also a seer, so if he even jokes that something bad is going to happen, everyone assumes the worst and takes it as fate.
Definitely check out Surface Pressure, also from Encanto. It's another great one with a really great (but sad!) underlying message.
Something I just realized while watching this is that Mirabel's mother doesn't contribute to the song, but everyone else does. And I feel like that's very telling considering she's a healer and this song is gossip.
Right! I thought about this too. They all telling bad things about Bruno, meanwhile Mirabel's mom Is a very good and humble person, healing without asking anything back. The characters are ✨👌🏻
I just like how you can bruno dancing in the background
Antonio, Agustín
@@Mateo_8886 Good point, I think I waved their non-participation off bc Antonio is 5 years old (and probably wouldn't have much of an opinion or knowledge about Bruno) and Augustín is married to Julieta (and therefore would likely be similar to her in beliefs and values)
@@Mateo_8886 Agustin technically joined in the song because in the madrigal section he participated in the choreography with Felix and Camilo (the throwing of glass, placing plates etc.)
This movie is INCREDIBLE and the music is straight fire! This song definitely needs all the context of the rest of the story - you’ll appreciate it even more once you see the movie a few times. You’ll find new stuff each time!!!
_"We don't talk about Bruno..."_
*But we sure as hell sing the hell out of him*
The song is genius in almost every aspect.
We get a different story of who Bruno is from each character, layering in a narrative of confusion and superstition that WE can see but the characters cannot.
We get a major chord structure with subtle dips into minor to get our attention for certain portions ushering us from section to section.
We get a build-drop-build-drop pattern as voices layer in only to drop out in Delores’s portion and then again in Isabella’s making the tension grow more and more taunt throughout.
Delores’s portion is accompanied by Flamenco steps in the audio, keeping the sense of pattern and rhythm without a chorus, letting her whisper her part while still getting a driving beat.
We have been shown that Isabella is a bit of a spoiled princess and her verse being so different from the doom and gloom of all the others reinforces that narrative, Delores’s verse following, brings us back to the pessimistic view of Bruno so we can continue with the feeling of impending doom.
The cues as to the arrival of the Guzmans for dinner make for a ticking clock, (“Mariano’s on his way”, “Your boyfriend is here.”, “Time for dinner!”) pushing us into the big drop where all the verses weave in and out filling the entire space, isolating Mirabel in a confusing swirl of narratives and characters, leaving her and us none the wiser despite everyone having a say.
At the end of the piece we have a foundation of tension and confusion upon which to build the next scenes. Masterful construction, storytelling, direction of the audience, and pacing.
On top of this, Isabella's part is foreshadowing. It sounds perfect and good, makes you think "at least he prophesied something good" and "of course the golden child got a golden prophesy to fit" but in her song we find that that prophesy was also a prophesy that the receiver didn't like, making it fit in with all of these prophesies we recognize as bad omens.
I mean...yeah, exactly what this person said!
Even better is with Delores's part you actually have Bruno creeping behind in the upper levels and dancing to the song with his bucket. Showing up at the sound of falling sand as she mentions how she relates him to that. Works since she is the one who always knew he was around.
The ending where they all in unison go "He's Here" works both with the arrival of the Guzmans and as a subtle clue to the fact that Bruno is still here.
@@VariousThings01 So true, I didn't notice that at first but recently saw it in a still, so much detail!
Bruno is severely misunderstood 😭. A real sweet guy
The sweetest guy🥰🥰🥰
Dolores says that she associates Bruno with the sound of falling sand, right!?
Well the sand is a perfect personification of Bruno's gift. Like his clairvoyance or predictions, it's never fully accurate, they're constantly shifting and changing like sand beneath our feet. Bruno also says to Mirabel that he doesn't know "WHEN" his prediction of her will come to fruition, only that it will happen, so the falling sand when entering his room is a reflection of an hourglass, because it's only a matter of time (or rather when) Bruno's prophecies may come true.
An interesting thing about prophecy is that they're both prediction and warning, but they can only end up being one or the other.
If it succeeds as a prediction, then the prophecy comes true and the warning didn't work. If it succeeds as a warning, then the future is changed and the prediction didn't work.
I love this and always thought it was funny if this lyrics had a double meaning that she also hears him throwing salt and sugar in the walls!
@@zaribelle718 I also love when Dolores says she can him muttering and mumbling and I can't help but think that's just him watching his telenovela of the mice whose aunt has amnesia and she can't remember that she's his aunt
The sand is a multilayered reference.
1. The sand in his tower.
2. His symbol is the hourglass (it tells time by slowly releasing sand into the bottom half).
3. His Gift is seeing visions through the sands of time (the future).
@@whisperingsage89 I don't think we know if they can also work as a warning or if he just doesn't always get the full context and/or doesn't necessarily see the end results of everything.
After all, the man of Dolores' dream WAS about to propose to her cousin and if he didn't/wasn't bale to watch any further than that that would have been the logical conclusion.
In that case it'd be less a case of his prophecies not always coming true/occasionally being warnings rather than prophecies and more a case of them being liable to misinterpretation.
you neeeeeed to check out the other songs, especially surface pressure and the family madrigal! the family madrigal gives basically all the context of the movie since it introduces all the characters
Best Disney movie in decades. All the songs are Oscar-worthy (especially Dos Oruguitas, it will likely win 🏆… but I also love Surface Pressure)
Fun fact in this song if you look in the background on the balcony when Delores says "Do you understand" you can see Bruno jamming along with them.
i LOVE how since each section runs on a 1 2 3 4 tempo, it allows them to all come together for that final cluster of voices
Definitely watch this movie. The music is amazing (this song and another called Surface Pressure are the best in my opinion) and the movie itself is wonderfully heartwarming.
You definitely have to see it . I can tell you there’s no villains in the movie. It’s base down to The “T “ what a traditional Colombian family and regular town is .
100% Colombian 🇨🇴👑
5:29 yess, i really love that this movie did that, Bruno doesnt have a villain song, everyone else just sings it for him, kinda from his POV, just assuming his personality! Thats a strong foreshadowing ;)
I love how, during Dolores' verse, you can see Bruno walking around in the background
Lin Manuel did absolutely phenomenal with the music. One of the best songwriters in this generations IMO
Basically Bruno is a scapegoat. He uses his "gift" but it isn't what they want to hear so they take it out on him rather than accepting reality.
Hey Brad, love the reaction as always. I do recommend watching the movie, it is a really good one. But I think the first song of the movie: “The Family Madrigal” may give you clue as to what the movie is about, and by a lesser extent, Bruno. Keep up the great work, bud. Take it easy. 👍🏼
I recommend “the family madrigal” next for better context on the movie. Another banger!
please react to the other songs in Encanto, particularly "Surface Pressure", its a favourite
Absolutely watch the whole movie, the animation is incredible and the songs are both wonderful to listen to and full of important messages. It's a masterpiece.
Bruno; like Mirabel are kind of looked as the black sheep of the family. You'll just have to watch it. Its brilliant!
I actually liked that you didn’t stop the video every 5 seconds. I’ve seen reactions like that, and they’re annoying, they miss so much because they’re too busy talking. Go watch the movie! All the music is amazing, and the plot is also unique. ❤️ Lin Manuel!
The context is that every member of the family has a magical gift (except for Mirabel), and Bruno's gift is that he can see the future. Except that he tends to only see bad things when he sees the future, so people don't like him.
I died laughing at the end when you said “OMG Whose Bruno?” 🤣🤣
We have this movie on repeat in my house. These songs stay playing in my head. You have to watch the movie it’s so good!
You're not the only one that wants to watch the movie thanks to this song, I got so invested and loved each character's personality that I just absolutely have too see the movie now! Something tells me Bruno ain't the real villain in this story👀
Awesome reaction!!
I love how he’s like I need to know about Bruno after listening 😂
This song has to be hella confusing if you don't know the movie. XD So... many...characters. I love them all.
edit: Ahahaha. That face on 7:16 Yup, perfect.
Anytime Lin-Manuel is involved, you know it’ll be a masterpiece.
I mean If you ever wanted to do a movie commentary this is the one
I like how the song isn't repetitive, it got a lot of different parts so we can choose our favorite too this is so cool
So many hits in Encanto, and the story is also pretty great. Highly recommend.
Bruno is the family scapegoat they blame everything on him when he’s just a goofy innocent guy
You should react to Surface Pressure, also from this movie
Please react to a whole movie. This and there's another song that realllyyy hit hard and I believe you will like it. Knowing the whole plot will really make you feel the whole lyrics and song. And yes the musics are brilliant!!!
I definitely recommend watching the whole movie. It's an amazing movie, but also We Don't Talk About Bruno can seem kinda confusing if you don't know what's happened in the movie before the song.
The part with the girl talking about falling sand, pretty pretty much explained everything you needed to know about Bruno 🤔
please react to the family madrigal(it will give more context), and surface pressure,( the best song imo), but you should watch the whole movie, its awesome
Once you watch the movie you'll actually like Bruno. He's actually one of my favorite characters
I love watching reaction of we dont talk about bruno, without context or seeing the movie you really know who are the people that are judgemental and fall to false rumor about a person
All the songs just make my ears happy and my dance bones happy. Nailed it
it’s encanto’s non-stop
watch the movie as soon as POSSIBLE!
In my opinion, I'm order to understand the gravity this song has you have to watch the whole movie. It truly makes me appreciate the musical masterpieces much more
Omg I've seen this movie like 7 times and I just realized Luisa is saying "I'm ok" at the end part!!! 👁👁 poor Luisa! Now I have to re watch the movie with headphones! 😂
I know the composer and singers get a lot of credit in this song. But let's talk about the engineer that had to mix the last few minutes. What a damn task that man had, and it nailed it.
Bruno is not a villain, Latino stories usually don't have a hero and a villain. Latino stories tend to have flawed characters who sometimes mess up. In the case of Bruno, he's the black sheep of the family and what gossip can do to a family.
'don't have a hero and a villain', 'flawed characters who sometimes mess up'... Sounds like my ideal story, yo. Got any favorites you can recommend?
@@hauntedshadowslegacy2826"Errementari: The Blacksmith and the Devil" and "Pan's Labyrinth" are my favorites, but there are many like these on Netflix.
Lmao the shock at the end like omg the drama who is Bruno
you absolutely need to watch the whole movie, yes :)
PLEASE watch the whole movie!! The music is AMAZING! :D
Uh excuse me sir, I’m 30 seconds into this and wasn’t expecting amazing singing vocals to come out.
Just for that I’m subscribing. That was beautiful.
You need to see the movie, BEST ever, and the music amazing
Love that the song is we don’t talk about Bruno yet everyone is talking about him very Colombian :)
Your voice is so beautiful 🥰 gives me warm fuzzies
Fun fact: The part where everyone sings their verses overlapping at the same time is called a madrigal. The family's name is Madrigal.
Dolores part is my favorite. Between the whispering rap, the percussion of her shoes hitting the floor when she dances and Bruno chilling in the background. Genius.
i love how you can see bruno jamming out in the background during parts of this
“Omg, who is Bruno?” 😂🤣 I loved ALL of this!
i dunno if someone’s said this, but look at the balcony behind Delores in the rap, she’s the only one who “hears him now…”
I do love how you got so into the music and visuals that you got to the end and immediately were just like "Wait. Go through it again."
You absolutely need to see the whole film! This and Surface Pressure are my two favorite songs from the film.
My take is that Pepa controls the weather with her emotions and the vision showed rain because of happy tears. But when Bruno told the vision to her she starts to worry bringing rain and they blame it on him thinking it wouldn't have rained if he didn't say anything.
the great thing about this song is that it make you extremely interesting about Bruno. each person give a different perspective of Bruno, you can never tell which one is real.
Watch it! I have had the songs stuck in my head since I watched and I’m not sad about that.
I like how there’s like three or four styles and they all weave together awesomely.
It's not just #1 on YT trending, it's the top Album on the Billboard charts and damn near every song off of it is in the Hot 100.
My favorite reaction/review video on this song so far. Thanks for just taking it in and not pausing it every 10 sec.
It's a glorious movie, you should see it absolutely.
I've read that some people have complained that in light of the fact that the movie takes place in Colombia that there should have been at least one cumbia song in the movie, but there wasn't.
This song is amazing and the beat drop at the end- GOLD.
I'm genuinely enjoying your reactions and being able to see how enthralled with the story you are!
Yes, this song has been playing on my mind for how many days already lol. The song was made really well, kudos to the person who was responsible for the lyrics, the melody, and the singers, such a nice masterpiece.
I LOVED this movie
When They Get To The Dinner Table And Say “It’s Time For Dinner”
Watch Dolores’ Eyes, She Looks Around To Make Sure No One Is Watching Her, Then She Turns Around And Bangs On The Wall To Let Bruno Know It’s Time For Dinner
Bruno is a sweet bean 🥺🥺🥺🥺❤❤❤❤
This is awesome. My kiddos have been watching it non stop all Christmas. Highly recommend to watch.
Yes you really need to watch the movie!
Its really good highly recommend
I love how LMM partner-songed this one. Very nice layering of the truth into the family history tapestry.
The Dos Oruguitas scene and song were the most beautiful and tear jerking part of the entire movie I love when movies almost (even better if they do) make me cry which is what a lot of Disney movies have been missing for me recently
My favorite part of that is the "I'm sorry mi vida go onnnn" It's just satisfying to hear-
The jaw on the floor at the end is all of us sir! This song did not have to go SO HARD! It took us there and we have never left
I loved how you were in absolute AWE with the climax of the song where all the characters overlap in song and as soon as it fnishes you just go “who the heck is Bruno?!” Lol it made me laugh but I hope you get to watch the movie and enjoy it :)
I love the Bruno character in the film. He’s basically cursed instead of gifted like the myth of Cassandra.
I LOOOOVE Felix! Imagine how hard it is to keep Tia Pepa happy and calm.... he's great at it. I love the way he echoes and amplifies her.
(Jaw hanging open) "Omg who is Bruno?"
This had to be my favorite moment. Too funny!
"Oh my god who's Bruno!?" - I cackled man! I hope you get to watch this movie!
Yeah! Just go watch the movie ! Then you'll understand everything! It's an amazing movie!!
Saw Encanto a couple of weeks ago and this song blew me away. Best Disney song in years. Kicked 'Shiny' from Moana from the top spot.
I came to see the the reaction for the song and ended up hearing a snippet of yours. I am really impressed and I have to give it a listen now!
Definitely recommend the movie. It's so good.
