I cried in that movie theatre like a baby whilst she was singing this song. It hits different knowing the storyline. Her relationship with her sister, her kids being taken away from her. This scene gutted me. ❤❤
It's because the entire context of the song was changed in the movie. In the Broadway show, she's singing the beginning of the song to Shug in response to her having an affair. Idk why they changed it for the film.
Lyrics: Ive got my sister, i can feel her now She may not be here but shes still mine And i know, she still, love me Ive got my children, i cant hold them now They may not be here But they still mine And i hope They know i still love them Ive got my house It still keeps the cold out Ive got my chair When my body cant hold out Got my hands doing good like they supposed to Showing my heart to the folks that im close to Got my eyes Though they don’t see as far now They see more bout how things really are now Ohhhhh.. Im.. Im gonna Take a deep breath im gonna hold my head up Im gonna put my shoulder back And look you straight in the eyes Gonna flirt with some body When they walk by Im gonna sing out Sing… Ohhhhhhhh Yeahh I believe I have inside of me Everything that i need to live a bountiful life With all the love alive in me Ill stand as tall as the tallest tree And im Thankful for everyday im given Both the easy and the hard ones Im leaving But most of all Im thankful for.. Loving who i really am Im beautiful Yes… Im beautiful And…im… hereeeee Oh yes i am.
I hated seeing people say only black folks went to see this, me and my white ass friends saw this movie twice in theaters and loved it all. Cried together, just fell in love with fantasia. Not sure why it didn’t make more money.
I call Fantasia "Baby Aretha". The girl can sang (sing). Her voice is truly unique. Like Aretha, you know it's Fantasia before the completion of the first note. She is truly a gifted singer.
For this movie being the 27th Movie I Saw Alone, I was so moved by Fantasia’s performance. There were scenes that I couldn’t stop crying but this, this song, this powerful song is the Best Scene In The Movie and I love it
2:20 to 2:23 idk that part just give me chills like Im watching one of my favorites on the big screen sanging 😍✊🙌💣 and I'm like yes fantasia you are here been here now the world witnessing it what a voice
I loved Cynthia's version but this version made me cry ugly tears. It also made me sad because I've never experienced this kind of sisterly love with my own. Well done, Fantasia. 💜
So , I was only familiar with the Cynthia Erivo version which is wonderful - but my God Fantasia kills this ! I cannot hear this without feeling emotional, at the cinema it’s the only time I wanted to jump up and applaud a performance and if this lady doesn’t get the Oscar it’s an injustice on a scale of the first Color Purple not winning anything, Fantasia deserves to be recognised for this epic performance!
You have to watch the whole movie and ride the emotional roller coaster with her and see everything she had overcome at this point to truly understand and appreciate her triumph. This was breathtaking! ❤
Please Fantasia an Oscar for this song I'm playing in this movie cuz she's so deserves one and if you got anything else bigger to give or give it to her all of them The Color Purple was the bomb the bomb it was so good Hollywood do the right thing by this movie all I got to say do the right thing notorious movie on the road like I never existed cuz it was so good I love this song
LYRICS: I don't need you to love me I've got my sister, I can't feel her now She may not be here, but she's still mine 'n I know, she still loves me I've got my children, I can't hold them now They may not be here, but they still mine 'n I know I know I still love them Hey Got my house It still keeps the cold out Got my chair When my body can't hold out Got my hands doin things like they s'post to Showing my heart to the folks that I'm close to I got my eyes though they don't see as far now They see more 'bout how things really are now I'm gonna take a deep breath Hey I'm gonna hold my head up Gonna put my shoulders back And look you straight in the eye I'm gonna flirt with somebody When they walk by I'm gonna sing out Sing out yeah I believe I have inside of me Everything that I need to live a bountiful life With all the love inside of me I'll stand as tall as the tallest tree And I'm thankful for each day that I'm given Both the easy and the hard ones I'm livin' But most of all Yes I'm thankful for lovin' who I really am I'm beautiful Yes I'm beautiful And I'm here Yes you are, you are here.
When Turing from RuPaul's Drag Race S1 E4 mentioned this song, it brought me here. Little did I know I was about to bawl my eyes out from the absolutely amazing performance of this song. Perfection from Fantasia, flawless!
They should have kept this scene fully contained in her shop. Love the mirrors. Have her start sitting down and looking at the box of memories… very very slowly build up to her standing and shouting! The outside part as weird at the end…
Fantasia touch your hreat and soul when she sings she seems like a very humble person I just love her she blew this out I felt every word I am full❤. 4:48
Cynthia Erivo’s I’m Here remains the best version for me, but Fantasia once again proved why she won the American Idol. These ladies should’ve won Oscars 😭
I cried and cried in the theatre when Fantasia sang this . Saw my daughter look at me when I was trying to find a tissue 😢
exactly
I cried too 😢
Same. Beautiful
Fantasia foi plenamente cirúrgica na sua apresentação perfeita. Merecia mais destaque, arrasou🎉🎉🎉🎉 bravo bravíssimo 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Can you publish the scene where shug avery arrive please ?
This was her Oscar nominated scene. I don’t care what anyone says. ✨
It sure was!
Agreed. I think she should have won the Oscar for this role.
😂
Right on beautiful my hreat melts every time I hear it tears rolling and winner is fantasia 3:27 3:28
Yo I was pissed she didn’t get nominated. Fantasia really killed it. I hope she continues acting.
I cried in that movie theatre like a baby whilst she was singing this song. It hits different knowing the storyline. Her relationship with her sister, her kids being taken away from her. This scene gutted me. ❤❤
Same here I love this song and the words are powerful I cried to❤
They should’ve had her sing “I don’t need you to love me” like she did in the Broadway version
she does in the movie. but they cut it in this video idk why
yea , I wish they had her sing that too .
@@SGoriginal2003she never said it in the movie. she only said “I’ve got my sister “ .
It's because the entire context of the song was changed in the movie. In the Broadway show, she's singing the beginning of the song to Shug in response to her having an affair. Idk why they changed it for the film.
It’s on the soundtrack ❤️
Fantasia one of the best singer that we have in this world thank you 🙌
Fantasia killed this song. She deserves the Oscar.
I agree, she would’ve been the best actress of 2023
Did anyone else want fantasia 2 jump off the screen and give them a good auntie hug . Because this is a message 4 the broken 😢
Yes!
If I was a movie critic, I would say “Fantasia Shines as Celie and I’m Blown Away. Ten Stars”
The tears I cried during this was insane💕💕this woman moved me!!
Bro…. same here..!!!!
The best vocalist ever and I will never stop saying so and I don’t care what anyone else thinks.
DAMN. WHEN THIS WOMAN SINGS THIS SONG I SEE HER SOUL HER HEART ❣️ HER LIFE ❤️ AND HER PAIN 💓.
The best thing about the new Color Purple was FANTASIA......💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Her singing is controlled here - nice.
Fantasia is a gifted singer and too often overlooked and underrated.
One of the most beautiful voices of tge modern era.
The guh know she can sing.
Wow. I am so moved. The tears came when she broke🥹 Absolutely Perfect👏🏽
Lyrics:
Ive got my sister, i can feel her now
She may not be here
but shes still mine
And i know,
she still, love me
Ive got my children,
i cant hold them now
They may not be here
But they still mine
And i hope
They know i still
love them
Ive got my house
It still keeps the cold out
Ive got my chair
When my body cant hold out
Got my hands doing good like they supposed to
Showing my heart to the folks that im close to
Got my eyes
Though they don’t see as far now
They see more bout how things really are now
Ohhhhh..
Im..
Im gonna
Take a deep breath
im gonna hold my head up
Im gonna put my shoulder back
And look you straight in the eyes
Gonna flirt with some body
When they walk by
Im gonna sing out
Sing…
Ohhhhhhhh
Yeahh
I believe
I have inside of me
Everything that i need to live a bountiful life
With all the love alive in me
Ill stand as tall as the tallest tree
And im
Thankful for everyday im given
Both the easy and the hard ones
Im leaving
But most of all
Im thankful for..
Loving who i really am
Im beautiful
Yes…
Im beautiful
And…im… hereeeee
Oh yes i am.
I hated seeing people say only black folks went to see this, me and my white ass friends saw this movie twice in theaters and loved it all. Cried together, just fell in love with fantasia. Not sure why it didn’t make more money.

❤❤❤❤❤I know you can feel the power of this song🎵🎵‼️‼️
Can you publish the scene where Celie sings Hell No- Reprise
I call Fantasia "Baby Aretha". The girl can sang (sing).
Her voice is truly unique. Like Aretha, you know it's Fantasia before the completion of the first note.
She is truly a gifted singer.

BEAUTIFUL. LORD, I MISS MY ONLY SISTER. THIS SONG REALLY TOUCHED MY SOUL.
I loved Cynthia's version but this version made me cry ugly tears. It also made me sad because I've never experienced this kind of sisterly love with my own.
Well done, Fantasia. 💜
So , I was only familiar with the Cynthia Erivo version which is wonderful - but my God Fantasia kills this !

You need to look up Fantasia's live versions from the play. They're phenomenal.
And Cynthia is always amazing.
Wow I love this!
I LOVE THIS SONG !!! SANG TASIA !!!
I've got my shishter. I can feel her now. She may not be here, but she'sh shtill mine...😢
I want the roaring free fantasia more, but i get the emotion of this rendition.
Fantasia rules
A great song by fantasia
Her voice is smooth as butter god I love it
You have to watch the whole movie and ride the emotional roller coaster with her and see everything she had overcome at this point to truly understand and appreciate her triumph. This was breathtaking! ❤
she did her big one !! ❤
Why is this movie do dark? ( dark as far as color) not the plot!!💯💯
SSSSSSSIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG🔥♥️
Please Fantasia an Oscar for this song I'm playing in this movie cuz she's so deserves one and if you got anything else bigger to give or give it to her all of them The Color Purple was the bomb the bomb it was so good Hollywood do the right thing by this movie all I got to say do the right thing notorious movie on the road like I never existed cuz it was so good I love this song
I just want to sing this one damn time without crying
This amazing performance and most scenes in this movie are ruined by the director's poor choice of lighting design.
no it’s just the way the video came out when i upload it .
LYRICS:
I don't need you to love me
I've got my sister, I can't feel her now
She may not be here, but she's still mine
'n I know, she still loves me
I've got my children, I can't hold them now
They may not be here, but they still mine
'n I know
I know I still love them
Hey
Got my house
It still keeps the cold out
Got my chair
When my body can't hold out
Got my hands doin things like they s'post to
Showing my heart to the folks that I'm close to
I got my eyes though they don't see as far now
They see more 'bout how things really are now
I'm gonna take a deep breath
Hey
I'm gonna hold my head up
Gonna put my shoulders back
And look you straight in the eye
I'm gonna flirt with somebody
When they walk by
I'm gonna sing out
Sing out yeah
I believe I have inside of me
Everything that I need to live a bountiful life
With all the love inside of me
I'll stand as tall as the tallest tree
And I'm thankful for each day that I'm given
Both the easy and the hard ones I'm livin'
But most of all
Yes I'm thankful for lovin' who I really am
I'm beautiful
Yes I'm beautiful
And I'm here
Yes you are, you are here.
They slaughtered Celie as a character in this adaption.
Nah.
When Turing from RuPaul's Drag Race S1 E4 mentioned this song, it brought me here. Little did I know I was about to bawl my eyes out from the absolutely amazing performance of this song. Perfection from Fantasia, flawless!
they forgot about the chair...the only thing missing in the movie...
She is such a raaaare talent❤
Does anyone know where I can watch the full Broadway show That I've been trying to find it but I have no luck 😭🤦🏾♀️
if you find out let me know
My favorite song of all time
❤
Well done very beautiful. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
FANTASIA! 😍
❤ 🫠😇🥰 waauu
❤
They should have kept this scene fully contained in her shop. Love the mirrors. Have her start sitting down and looking at the box of memories… very very slowly build up to her standing and shouting! The outside part as weird at the end…

They both did great! But Cynthia hit differently for me. Both did amazing tho
Cynthia Erivo’s I’m Here remains the best version for me, but Fantasia once again proved why she won the American Idol. These ladies should’ve won Oscars 😭
TPH messed this up for her if she don't win period
Taraji why???🤔
