Thank you. My sister Jill passed away from a 9 year fight with metastatic breast cancer (to the bones), early this year. I knew she was a fan of Waitress but I wasn’t familiar with it myself. Her wonderful and devastated husband told me, as we were planning her funeral service and thinking of music we wanted to have played, that she used to sit in her comfortable living room chair and simply play Sara’s version of this song, on repeat. She never got to have kids, in fact she miscarried and shortly after got her diagnosis, so she had her share of sorrows and fears, but she never once complained. When he played this song for me that day, everything stopped, and I was able to feel my sister completely... her struggles, her joys, her taste, her sorrows, her hope, her love... Now when i make my weekly or so visits to her resting place, I’ll play a few songs to her on a portable speaker, and this is always one of them. I don’t mind the depth of the tears the song never fails to bring out in me - they help bring me closer to my wonderful big sister. Thanks for posting this, it was a random find but I love your breakdown of the performance and your lovely demeanor, not to mention this beautiful performance by Sara
Sara has a beautiful music video on her vevo channel of this song. Its one of the only videos I've favorited on RUclips. I'm so sorry for your loss. Your sister sounds like an amazing person!
Also her singing is still immaculate even after recovering from COVID.
She got infected??!! No! Imagine if that affected her lungs and singing in any way.
@@asnalelo.165 That is very unlikely because she is young and healthy. The risk lies in permanent damage or passing it on to more vulnerable people.
She Used To Be Mine is my favorite song of all time. While I've never been in Jenna's exact shoes, I've been in an abusive marriage and am still healing from everything I went through. I'm also a server and a baker. The song makes me feel something (I've been numb for years) and as a long time Sara Bareilles fan, this song is everything I could ever ask for.
"She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine"
💜
I'm so glad you are safe and healing and in a better space.
There are a lot of beautiful covers of this song, but no one does it better than the person who wrote it. Pure emotion, you can feel the song.
I love having someone to cry with during musicals with. Thank you MDP.
Haha. Glad I could be there for ya Tom.
I think her renditions of the song are the best. So many others, I've found to be showy and overdone, but she hits all the emotional notes AND the actual notes without any need to twist her face into a pretzel or cram twelve notes into one syllable. It's just this perfect display of craft and emotion.
You know the song is getting serious when the second earbud goes in haha! Wow, this is now my favourite rendition of this song, thank you for showing this to us.
BAHAHA. omg, loved this... ! Wheres the lie though? 😂
I know it's not what the song is really about, but as someone who became chronically ill and disabled as a young adult...this song just hits me right in the chest. The feeling of grieving someone you used to be is so complicated and painful, but not often talked about. When I have no idea how to talk about, it all belting this out in my room or in the car allows me express that pain...definitely doesn't sound like Sara's, but usually no one is listening but me.
So sorry you’re having to go thru the illness your living with. Do all the good things that give you joy. Sing at the top of your lungs with Sara. And people are always willing to listen.
There’s no way you can exhaust this song. I was about to suggest you react to Jessie Mueller! If you’re worried about doing this song too much, then maybe What Baking Can Do? Jessie’s version is just incredible and so dynamic
I echo the request to react to Jessie Mueller's rendition. I've seen this song by the other Jenna's reacted to but somehow I haven't seen Jessie's reacted to. (maybe once but as part of a comparison?) I would love for you to react to the video of her in what I believe is a rehearsal (or perhaps press preview?). And yes, almost impossible to get tired of this song. It's just so well written and rings so true that it is very easy to relate to.
Yes!! Jessie is AMAZING! Please, please, please react to her rendition of She Used To Be Mine!
Her Tony’s performance would be a great video to react to, just ‘cause it’s more special because she was sick at that time and recently, Jessie said that whenever she loses her voice, she loses the middle range, so she’ll probably have a hard time performing songs from Waitress and Beautiful, but she won’t have a problem doing Carousel or Into The Woods. What a talent!
That Tony performance or maybe the rehearsal footage.
I actually thought Jessie mueller overacted it. I didn’t like her Tony performance 🤷🏽♀️
She's lovely, her rendition just hits you in the heart.
I have been a fan of Sara since she released her single called Love Song that was like around 2007. And I, too, find the tone of her voice really beautiful. She’s brilliant.
Whenever I hear or sing this song, i always picture my mom since she gave birth to me and raised me while 'surviving' an abusive relationship (for roughly 18 years). After years and years of me convincing her, and after a night of full-blown physical abuse, my mom decided to separate from him. Being in an abusive relationship is also as hard as walking away from it. We spent years struggling because each of us had developed our own traumas and disorders when we were living with an abusive man. Now I'm 27 and I can say we had overcome it. 😊
Thank you for feeling comfortable enough to share your story here Marxs.
I watched Sara perform this in London on West End in February 2020. A few months before the show was forced to close. She sang the song so incredibly. As an audience, we stood and applauded until our hands hurt. I have never experienced a moment like this in theatre. It was a gift and I feel so grateful that I got to see her in the role.
This song is ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL SONGS EVER WRITTEN. The end.
I feel that every mama can relate to this song in some way... the transition into motherhood. From one, you become two. So moving. Thank you for sharing this with your insights
...and sometimes you feel that from one to two you became void and just dissapeared 😔 the biggest challenge as a mom is for me to make sure I am not losing myself in the process - my "baby" is now 28 and it feels like just in the past 5 years I am finally discovering, who I really am and meant to be - aside of a mom to this amazing woman!
This song. I could never get tired of this song. I'm not a mom, my mom isn't alone, there is no mothers-way i can relate. But I think of someone I know who was joy, laugh, confidence, until she met the wrong guy and now she writing herself all over again.
YES! I’m exactly the same. I’ve never been pregnant nor in an abusive relationship, “Shes imperfect but she’s kind. She is lonely, most of the time ....” do house me every time. Actually made me tear up just young it right now, dammit Sara! 🤣
Sara performs this song more quietly than any of the other Broadway performances I've seen of it (which is three), but there's no less feeling. I really appreciate the more understated approach that she takes.
I love your „Musical Face“. Everytime you talk to us you look normal. But when you listen to the performer the love and dedication to Musicals is visible in your face and tangible to me. I love that.
chills, tears, jaw dropping...speechless by the beauty of of her instrument that is her voice.xx
I was lucky enough to see Sara as Jenna in London earlier this year. She was phenomenal. The emotion she brought to this song was incredible. I was in tears midway through, and she even managed to bring my boyfriend to tears, and he’s not usually a musical theatre fan. I have so much love for this woman ❤️
For me Sarah’s rendition is the best!! Makes me cry every time. Certainly helps that she wrote the song but her emotional connection is unmatched!!
Had the honor of watching Sara play Jenna last October. Unforgettable. I'm a dude and this song crushes me. The depth of these lyrics, even extracted from the show.. wow. Baked into a perfect melody, if I may.
We were lucky enough to see Sara play Jenna on Broadway - she is just amazing.
I cry every time I hear this song. She is as incredible a songwriter as she is a singer.
I was fortunate enough to see her perform this in the show. It was heart breaking
I saw jessie Mueller perform this on. Broadway in the Brooks Atkinson theater and it was one of the most transcendent performances I've seen. Sara wrote an amazing score and tracks. Ughhh it's so good it makes me cry!
This song always makes me cry, and I've never had an issue connecting to it but that technique you used absolutely broke me
For me, Sara's performances of this song always ring so true - I never get the sense that she 'performs' this song....it's more like her heart is rendered on the emotional canvas of the music....
This song is un-exhaustible! Perfection!
This is the first time I've heard this song that hits me emotionally. This was perfect, i felt every word. Some tears were shed. Stunning
Sara Bareilles wrote "Poor Pirates" for the Spongebob Musical and, honestly, its my favorite song in that whole musical.
Also, I did not expect the whole musical to be as good as it is, given that its The Spongebob Musical.
I'm so glad you revisited this, Marc, because Sara's is my favorite version of the song, bar none, for every reason you demonstrate here. She knows how to tell a story through song. It's why I knew she would be amazing in the role even before I'd seen her act in "Jesus Christ Superstar," etc. She has been superbly telling stories through song for years. And she is willing to put the emotion first, to pace the song's volume and power, to vary her choices on intonation and vibrato, on pacing, on where to place those gorgeous fragile high notes, or the amazing belted power moments. She's so damn good.
Seriously, this song -- RIGHT HERE -- is a master class for voice students who want to learn how to tell a story through song. I especially love where Sara is willing to put the song before the "prettiness" -- and she's so good at it here. She lets the emotion speak even if it means she has to pull back on a potential big moment. There's a humility to it that every great performer needs to learn and harness.
So true Angela. You can tell how much this song means to her the entire time, and I almost lost it because if it. 💕
I remember being single, seeing only one onesie hanging in my closet, and thinking how was I, a girl who was trying to live up to everyone’s expectations but failing miserably, going to make it as a mother. I got pregnant a month after meeting the babies father, knowing we weren’t a good match. I was really scared. This song was written for me. That man, now is my husband and we’ve been together 27 years. That baby is now 26. It’s been rocky all the way. After you read that quote I cried. It’s crazy how your life can have so many regrets and pain yet you can’t wish it had never been because of all you’ve gained from that same hardship. Thank you for this reaction.
I love this song, love Sara and love the video! Thank you ❤️
I cry every time hearing this. Too good.
Same. I don't know how anyone gets through this song without crying.
This song came on my shuffle today on my way to pick up my kids after a long day of work. I cry every time I hear this song and today was no exception. I discovered this song through your channel and it immediately struck something inside me like never before. Thanks for featuring it.
Thank you so much, cause after million times listening to this and singing it, I'm feeling a renovate emotion and the same goosebumps that made me fall in love with it years ago...❤️
I will never get enough of this song, there's just so much going on that different performers bring out in it.
So not fair of you to have me start my day with a good cry *sigh*
Her performance of this song gets me all the time - so glad it touches your heart, too!
Thank you for the pointers - will make sure to consider them once I finally taoe me do-over 😁
I am learning so much from you. Thank you
That got me teary-eyed. I've been in love with Sara Bareilles' voice for years. She used to be mine is just making me love her more. I loved you adding the comment in between. It really got me.
I SO appreciated the exercise about where the song sits. I’ve sung (key-altered versions of) this song so many times and watched dozens of performances, probably hundreds of times. This is the first time I’ve watched and been forced to really connect with it in a way that wasn’t just my own experience. It made me think about my mom, and the fears and sacrifices she experienced to bring me into the world - to experience this entire enormous mysterious life. It brought me to tears all over again from a VERY familiar favorite.
Thank you MDP. And kids - not kidding - call your mother.
There are so many points throughout the song that people are able to relate to, so much emotion that can be relayed, which is why I believe it is so dang inexhaustible. I love this song to bits.
I simply love your videos, Marc. Your comments and the LOVE I can see poring out of your eyes and words make me appreciate Musical Theatre even more. Keep up with the good work!
Aww. Thank you so much Rebeca. 💕
I just watched Sara Bareilles perform at the piano for a tv special. I’m always so moved by her music. The very next thought I had was to come here to find you, hoping you had reacted to one of her performances. You couldn’t have chosen a more beautiful song.
Applause 👏 😢 Beautiful voice 💕
This song touched me so deeply, on so many levels.....I’m just thankful that art like this can be shared so freely, otherwise I may never have experienced it.
This is so beautiful! Great choice using that comment to get viewers into the mindset, it really made it so much more emotional. Loved watching this
Thank you, Marc, for drawing us in so we can connect to this song together. I admire your genuine reactions. I adore your channel!
Thank you so much Krystie. Means a lot to me. 💕
Such a perfect reaction. I never love this song as much as I do any time it’s a rendition Sara performs. She sings it so perfectly… this song is so poignant. There’s so much of it for SO many people to connect to along with the character. I just adore her. And am happy to have found your channel by searching reactions on a whim! Subscribed!
This video was brilliant. This song wells up emotions everytime. I went through so much pain and fear last year when my husband walked out on me and our two babies, as I was recovering from a postpartum illness... We never saw him again. Completely abandoned. This song Speaks to me in so many ways. Thank you for making this video and for breaking it down like that. I truly love your Chanel.
Thank you so much for sharing your story here. 💕
also just to put it out there, she’d recently recovered from covid-19 and still sung like an angel!
Saw her in concert last fall. She is incredible and very funny. Worth every Penny
This song is so beautiful and meaningful 😭❤
I love this song, and I am learning to appreciate Sara more and more. I watched your video because of that, but I finished with more understanding of the subtext and some insight into musical theater. Very, very nice work.
I haven't shed a tear with this song since the first time I heard it, Jessie Mueller, until now. I closed my eyes and wow, I opened them and you were about to cry too ahaha. She's beautiful.
It honestly gets me every time (this song), when its done well.
would love to see a reaction to Sam Pauly singing “All you wanna do” from Six the Musical. when she performs it on stage the acting she does through the music, though masterfully subtle, is so incredibly powerful. definitely worth at least watching, if you don’t want to do a video about it. it isn’t your typical theatre song, but it really hits you in the emotions
I second this request! Sam is brilliant!!
This song always makes me cry. I love it.
I think the way you tried to help the audience connect to the performance was brilliant!
Aww, thanks so much.
Love love love this song and your reactions to it. New sub!
Good Lord! Sara has always been a favorite of mine and I have seen her do this song before but not like this....and not with the added context of Erin’s comment. I was so choked up (actually full on crying) that it wasn’t until I fully wiped my tears away to see that you were too. Ugh. Gut wrenchingly beautiful. Thank you for this Marc 🙏🏼
I cant get through this song without getting emotional, let along when Sara sings it. Thank you Tanja.
@@MarcDanielPatrick same here!! That’s one of the few songs I can always count on to bring me to a full cry.
OMG Sara is a phenomenal artist. And you are right, this song never gets old. I only discovered it last year and it's just such a rich song.
Great commentary on what it takes to perform an emotional song like that
I was fortunate enough to see Sara play the role of Jenna earlier this year in the West End. Wow! She took you on a journey through the show with her wonderfully heartfelt lyrics and beautiful voice. The story with its comedic moments made you feel every emotion from laughing to crying all within the space of a couple of hours. One of the best shows ever.
The only other song that's caught me like this is "He's my boy" from Everybody's Talking About Jamie. Check out Josie Walker singing it.
I saw her in the West End too. I think I cried through most of the 2nd half to be honest.
I saw Lucie Jones playing Jenna few months before too, both amazing.
Nobody compares to Sara! 😍
Hi Marc, I love your reaction videos - not only your insights, but the emotions you share. Thank you for that. I know you focus on musical theatre, but I'd love to see your reaction to the Hallelujah video (Official version) by the extremely talented (and theatrical!) acapella group Pentatonix.
She's my favorite! I love this song.
Masterpiece ❤
Adore this song.... Stunning 💕🎶💕
I fall in love with her all over again every time I hear/see her. She’s amazing.
I’ve heard this song before but never knew the context for it. I’ve heard of the musical & that Sara wrote the music but I’ve never seen it. Being a mom myself, it made me cry.
All the feels. Sarah is amazing!
Wow. Much like others, tears are unavoidable here for two reasons. First, if it sits right (and it so so does) how can you not feel for the character? Also, how many of us have lost who we were and been sad and bewildered and confused. Yet we also knew, somewhere deep inside, that it was who we were (and wanted to be). None of this would work if it didn’t sit right with the performer. Or, put another way, of it wasn’t real. That’s what Sarah does here. She makes it real. As humans, we know when it’s fake. When it’s real then for you and I the tears flow because we know how much it hurts. Thanks for both feeling it and being willing to show us.
She's a very graceful singer, and hit gold on her first crack as a writer for Broadway. Music & lyrics, thank you very much, and a number that Sondheim would approve of, I'm sure. She Used to be Mine is a perfect dramatic soliliguy that will be sung by leading ladies (and a few men) for decades to come, as a showcase for their abilities as singing actors. I find Sara's own delivery of it mesmering - and a high bar for others to aim for. This version is scaled down beautifully for what looks like her own home, during COVID. Her piano piaying is very pretty, and the score has a pulse that reminds very much of her incredible live cover of Elton John's Rocket Man. If you haven't heard it, then a precious piece of your life is missing that you haven't even been aware of!
Not only does this song beautifully capture the uncertainty of impending motherhood, but it absolutely encapsulates the feelings a woman might feel when she is the victim of domestic abuse, whether emotional or physical. THAT is where this song can shine when done right. And she gets it right every time.
Hi Marc! LOVE your videos! So informative and well articulated! You should do a video on Michael Arden singing "Made of Stone" from the Hunchback of Notre Dame! Michael KILLS the role, and as a musician, I have always been in love with the orchestration created by Alan Menken. It is so interesting how he took one fleeting line from the original disney movie and turned it into what he did!
Thanks so much Derek. Appreciate the support. I will do my best to get to this performance soon.
I am so happy that covid did not take her voice from us. She has a gift and a hard earned talent.
I Will never get fed up of reaction videos to various artists singing this wonderful song.
This song is a very hard song for me to listen to even though I really love it. Unlike Erin, it reminds me of my mother. She’s not a single mother but she’s been in a marriage where she’s been disregarded for decades. She’s like the heroine, she loved who she was - bright, bubbly, a free-spirit - but she’s gone due to people who hurt her.
I think there is something inherently trustworthy about a person who can be brought to tears by this song
That was beautiful.
Not sure which I loved more... Sara's intoxicating performance, or Marc's reaction. In love with both!
you're too kind.
I’m crying while watching and my dog trying to lick the tears away. I don’t have children of my own but when playing a character you can pull from so many different things. In this the way it is performed I feel her pain, hope, fear and love. Now I need to wipe these tears away before the dog gives me chapped eyes from trying to lick them as I type this and keep trying to fix typos as I type pushing her away lol.
There are few songs from musicals that make me cry, that is one, every time! The Waitress soundtrack has such ups and downs. Although, a 50 year old man ugly crying at 8am is not a sight you should see lol
Thanks Marc.
Haha. My apologies Simon.
The Graham Norton version is wonderful too.
I have a question. Before I started watching your channel I was under the impression that musical theatre performances relied mainly on chest voice in order to project the sound to the audience, however, I’ve noticed in your videos that actors use their head voices a lot to express different emotions as well. What would you suggest to improve my head voice? I’m currently auditioning for a role in a local amateur production of “Oliver” and I feel my head voice is all weak and raspy.
I love your channel by the way. Greetings from Chile.
I love Sara Barellies and this song tells such a powerful story of so many lives! Pls listen to Morisette Amon performing this beautiful song
I listen to this song at least once a week.
But I always come back to Adrian Matthew's version. Just a 13 year old boy who makes me ball when he sings this one. I recommend it, if you haven't seen it already.
Marc, I'm gonna start a fan club for your use of the word "quite".
Ahaha. do I over use that one? I've never noticed. 🙈
Not really. I like the way you use it euphemistically. As though it's code for "very". I'm British and we understate everything, so that sits nicely with me.
can relate to this song.... she is messy but she is kind, she is lonely most of time
The song is fantastic, but I actually thought your comments and additions were even more helpful. Thank you for that!
I don't know if someone else has said this before but have you seen Abby Mueller on Six? I was about to suggest you react to Abby's song "Heart of Stone". My sister (who doesn't know a thing about musicals and practically hates them) was literally crying while listening to her version. It is a really powerful performance and the emotion she delivers is just... there are no words. Hope you can check it out.
I love Sara
Great video. I can't seem to find the video of her performance reviewed here without commentary. Any help?
Amen 🙏
🙌🏻
Love your videos and love this song!!! If you can, you should do a video on George Salazar performing "Michael in the Bathroom",, amazing performance
Thank you Julio, appreciate it. I will definitely get to that song as well. Its heavily requested on this channel.
kindly watch Morisette's version of this song.. I believe you will also like it. thanks.. by the way you are really an amazing coach. you are very genuine and fair in giving your reactions and critiques... more power to your channel. I love musical theater shows and with this channel you making people understand more the depth of every performance.
Soshana's version is the one that impressed me the most..She is simply amazing..All of the actress who played the role ate, but she gives me goosebumps the most..
