In this video Musical Theatre Coach Marc Daniel Patrick discusses Cynthia Erivo's performance of Stand-Up Reaction from the Focus Feature Film: Harriet. As sung at the 2020 Oscars. BLM
As a Black girl who loves musical theater, I knew...I just knew you would educate the people with those concluding facts. thank you thank you thank you a thousand times. Cynthia deserves every morsel of her success and her talent, no her gift speaks for itself in this performance.
Thank you so much!! My pleasure.
It’s bs she didn’t win. That performance alone deserved an award. Cynthia should be a household name. She’s literally the best singer I have ever heard, ever.
I know im asking randomly but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my login password. I love any tips you can give me.
Such a great reaction... "I go to prepare a place for you" reportedly the last words of Harriet Tubman before she passed and you can tell Cynthia is embodying those words... making a place for other women of colour.
I didnt know that. Cant imagine how much more emotional I would have been in this video knowing that. Thank you for the comment Regina!

I didnt know that. Cant imagine how much more emotional I would have been in this video knowing that. Thank you for the comment Regina!
And I just started to cry even though I already knew this fact.
She was quoting Scripture of her Lord and Savior. Powerful words in the Book of John 14:3.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I am coming again and will take you to Myself, so that where I am, there you also will be.
This song was honestly the song that should've won the Oscar...I can't even remember the Elton John song that won. Not saying it wasn't good but this song was the one.
I completely agree
This song speaks to Black people in a special way and if any Black people were judging it they would have said “of course this wins” or a even a yt ally can be like “Yupp this isn’t my history but it deserves the award for the people it’s about and their history” like….it tears me up inside.
Elton know this song should have won it
When you cry, I cry, on top of the tears I already had just listening to this evocative masterpiece. Thank you for normalizing crying.
I'll try to hold back my tears a little more for your sake.
I love your channel:
“If you don’t get chills ....are you even alive?”
💥😂truth
Thank you so much.
Btw she got a standing ovation after this, as she should obviously, before she even finished that last line people where up cheering and clapping. It was an incredible moment in the broadcast. She was standing there like a Queen.
Thank you for speaking up about the message or it meanings and not just reacting to the song. I think big part of what makes music amazing it's the message and I know I can always go to your reactions to see someone else feel the feelings lol
Haha. Feel the feels... not enough people really openly talk about how a song really makes them feel. Thank you so much Taay! I really appreciate it.
I really appreciate this reaction. Thank you for speaking on the significance of this song and of how perfect yet pathetic this moment was. The fact that she was the only person of color nominated, the fact that she would have been (and should have been) the youngest EGOT ever. Not youngest woman, not youngest POC no youngest period. And the fact that she didn't win. Everyone in that room and at home watching who is slightly aware had the same thoughts running through their heads as you just explained in this video. Beautiful reaction, incredible performance. ❤
Absolutely true. His last line: “Stand up.” is what sat with me the most. Harriet’s calling was to free her people & Cynthia’s performing (& writing) of this powerful piece about that is not just a history lesson, but a call to action. Everyone needs to fight. For equality, for freedom, for mankind. It’s time for us to “Stand Up.”
This is not just a song, and this was just not a performance, this is an anthem for all people of color. The raw emotion she displayed was simply amazing, and the fact she didn't win really didn't surprise anybody because the Oscars have a long history of turning their backs on black themed movies and music, the history of blacks and their struggles just don't matter especially in hollywood. As a black male Cynthia Erivo in singing this song has invoked emotions out of me I didn't know existed, it has change me in many ways I can't get into but Ms Erivo in my mind and many others you have already won an oscar, your performance in the movie and your gut wrenching vocals in the song, its just, all I can say is BRAVO and THANKYOU........................................................
People will remember this song long after the award show is forgotten.
5:23 is in fact a B5 😁😁😁😁😁
Her range is just so😭
Haha. thx! I can always count on the comments for these things!
Haha. thx! I can always count on the comments for these things!
She should have won it all.
She was robbed for the Oscar. This performance alone was award worthy... Cynthia is a beast!❤
(P.S. the last line of the song "i go to prepare a place for you" reportedly was Harriet Tubman's dying words)
OK, let me start by saying that she hit a high B. Cynthia Erivo sings about the challenges, goals of her characters. First of all she has the voice and an incredible range. Through her voice and body she conveys the incredible spirit of her characters. She communicates, for me, a social awareness and intelligence. She is the total package. Watching you, Marc, as always, brought a deeper appreciation of her gifts. I look forward to your next "class."
I need to hire you to write my videos for me Roberto, you always have the perfect commentary.
@@MarcDanielPatrick I’m really flattered. That said, you are the master and I love your classes.
She is so pretty 🥺🥺
Yes. Thank you.
When I saw this performance I streamed it about a million times after. It’s stunning, powerful and stirring. Stand up people. The world HAS to change.
I cried crocodile tears when she performed this at the Oscars. She sung it from the depths of her soul.
I did too. So powerful!! This performance gave me hope for a better outcome
Why crocodile tears, though? I’m genuinely curious about that…not trying to be rude by asking.
@@jenniferpatterson4964 No offense, just the truth. P. Lewis is soooo obviously ignorant as to what the definition of "crocodile tears" means. It's a bit embarrassing to me, ESPECIALLY since dictionaries exist. They do absolutely nothing if one never opens the book and read it.
@@AirForceFalcons_9922 Precisely why I asked. It didn’t make sense to me. The post and the use of the idiom “crocodile tears” seemed so incongruous, it prompted me to ask to satisfy my curiosity. Well done, love. 😉
Crocodile tears are fake tears
I saw Cynthia and I immediately dropped what I was doing to watch this.
Same. Madison. Same.
Haha.
Saaaame
WOW. You explaining how she looked to the Heavens to take her people with her, only to reach to the depths of Hell to find that low "D" note to get more of her people... simply profound. Absolutely beautifully brilliant and so accurate
🙏
My favorite female vocalist with my favorite song!! The first performance I ever saw of her’s was The Color Purple on Good Morning America. At the very end after she gets done belting these insanely high notes, riff after riff, when she hit the low notes perfectly and calmly, I KNEW she was something else
Thank you for remarking on the context in which she performed this - she should have won
Agreed.
just let your tears out bro its okay...
we all cried 😭😭😭
She is just the most incredible performer and incredible person ❤
I love how your videos are so thoughtful, thought provoking, insightful and also unadulterated admiration and fan girling over genuine talent.
Thank you so much for your time, education and entertainment 💖
Calli!! One of the best compliments I've ever gotten. I appreciate it so much. I do try to bring a different take on my videos, that you might not find on other reaction channels. So glad to hear it resonates with you! 💕
As you should because Cynthia deserves it
I .. am .. sob--bing. The struggle is still real. Thank you, Marc
This was the highlight of the entire awards ceremony.. amazing that night, and amazing now watching it back. I had just watched the movie and was riveted by her performance. So moving. And yes... She should have been.
I absolutely adore Cynthia, she is insanely talented. In my opinion this song was one of the most important songs in decades to be nominated for an Oscar. I was sure that she would win so I was angry and disappointed when she didn't. Elton's song didn't even come close the mastery of "Stand Up" (lyrics, melody and soul). Cynthia is a Queen, her portrayal of Harriet is amazing in the movie and she deserves to be acknowledged for her passion and talent❤️.
How can she not win the Oscar award for such talent & performance?!
She was robbed of her well-deserved Oscar that night.
Cynthia Erivo is one of the greatest vocalists of our time. I have learned so much from your videos and it is great to appreciate her skill and artistry in new ways.
I loved what you said about it seeming like she was getting a vision from God that was carrying her through the song, because Harriet Tubman DID have visions! That’s how she often knew where to go or how to travel safely when taking people to freedom. She described her visions and faith as being what got her through a life of unimaginable difficulty.
I love that Cynthia was able to portray that kind of story in a song of only a few minutes. She is simply amazing.
She is singing the song and simultaneously being an extra instrument. She fills all the air in the room ❤
Such a powerful response to an even more powerful song. Amazing.
She was robbed of an EGOT... although she may another opportunity someday(I hope!) to win an Oscar again THIS should have been the Win . Incredible vocalist.Fantastic Actress .Exquiste performance. You are awesome,love your channel!(PS:I don't think many people realize how Petite Cynthia is..folks,she's my height: 5'1".Think of that when you watch this and all her performances. how she uses that Tiny body to bless us with all her Gigantic talent.. Stand Up!! )
Please listen to the live version of "Paciencia y Fe" from "In the Heights", it's amazing!
She has a gift for making us feel with her
She hits the lows and highs so well! Its got such depth and feeling that doesn't come from direction. That comes from you as a person. The fact of the matter is, I could not sing this song with as much feeling as she does because I am not black. I dont understand that history or the times we are living with now. She is speaking such truth through this song.
the “to face cause i’m alone” is just so beautiful. it’s like the climax of the song for me
Thank you for your insightful comments not just on the technical aspects of her vocal abilities and the quality of the performance but also highlighting the real life & current climate in which this song sadly is still relevant.
As a black female performer this aspect of the song, the timing along with all that has and continues to happen I was in tears. It just struck in a way I was not prepared for- the struggle, challenges, pain, resilience, hope, and strength embodied in the continued fight to live a quality life where one is seen, heard, and valued.
Well said
I always listen to Cynthia whenever I'm down because I can't help but smile every time I hear her sing🥰
I just rewatched this reaction. The way your face lights up describing the awesomeness that is Cynthia Ervio is contagious. I’d heard this song a lot &, to be brutally honest, listening to you describe the talent in her voice & your choices on where to stop, start & rewind certain parts made me REALLY hear it. Everyone else’s comments about this video are absolutely true. Your last line: “Stand up.” is what sat with me the most. Harriet’s calling was to free her people & Cynthia’s performing (& writing) of this powerful piece about that is not just a history lesson, but a call to action. Everyone needs to fight. For equality, for freedom, for mankind. It’s time for us to “Stand Up.”
I get far too caught up in the emotion at times and wax on for much too long... but happy to hear some people maybe feel the same as I do about her, this song and the importance of it.
I love your love for Cynthia Erivo so much. And you're right. She should have won both of those Oscars. Thanks so much for this reaction.
Love his reaction his facial expression’s shows how much hes enjoying her performance like he’s taking in every word she sings and realy feels it
She wrecks me emotionally every single time. COMPLETELY WRECKED!!!
She should've have won that Oscar!
Why is tears falling from my eyes😭😭😭😭
You are so passionate and it’s so easy to see your true love for theater 🎭. Keep up the great work, you are so genuine. You’ve got a subscriber and a fan now in me. 😁
THANK you for featuring this absolute QUEEN! Cynthia Erivo has an iconic voice, this performance brings me to tears whenever I hear it. ❤️
I remember watching this in tears. Absolutely stunning.
first time i saw that, i cried. just so much power, i felt it
You're the best reaction I've watched. I've enjoyed so many. You stop and I don't mind you doing so unlike others. You explain not only the song but the emotional and message being conveyed also. You feel it and get emotional as it moves you. This is why your reaction is so great. You take us into your world whilst being in the world if the notes you hear. Your questions at the end regarding her nomination. You knew from a woman of colour singing that song and still faces racial challenges is real. I can't help but feel on a personal level he feels it.
You are so cool - to open our minds to this song. We loved the song - now we get to hear it through your thoughts.
Always get goosebumps in my brain when I hear this. Absolutely phenomenal song & performance!
what awesome words at the end, yet infuriating, lol.
Thank you for your powerful words. And I’m proud to hit that subscribe button 🙏🏽
She’s so so powerful 💛
Your comments at the end were just spot on.
Oh, And Let's Not Forget About That Fashion Model Persona...She Looks Awesome In Haute Coutour!!!!!
Marc, Your Reaction To This Song Is Just As Awesome As The Song....This Song Is Awesome...She Became Harriet!!!! Cythia Is Such A Camillion...Whatever Project She Takes On, She Becomes That Character....That's What I Think Is So Awesome!!!!
i needed this today.. someone to represent and nurture an entire culture whether she wanted to or not- she's incredible
This was nothing short of an incredible performance..... and the way you ended this video gave me chills too!
Thanks so much. Felt I was going to edit it, but I felt like there was nothing else I could do to it.
@@MarcDanielPatrick nothing more was needed. Sometimes we just need to be made to stop and think... Thank you for that x
I think I’ve watched all your videos and this is my favourite. Thank you for sharing this music and your reaction; powerful and pathetic indeed that even now in 2021 these lyrics and emotions still have such importance and such absolute relevance to daily life for so many. Dear god was she robbed of that Oscar. Simply incredible, a perfect performance and yet at the same time so devastatingly sad that this message still means so much to so many.
No matter how many times i hear this song!!!!! The goosebumps I get every time and constantly throughout this song and how she didn’t win kills me a little inside
What makes it even more powerful is that she wrote this song. So the emotion, the lyrics, all mean so much more.
So glad you put out this song and performance. Shoulda been!
Full body goosebumps!! I missed the Academy Awards this year. Thank you for sharing ❤️❤️
Black History month 2024 I’m back here again!!! Best reaction ever!❤Cythnia is magical
Incredible reaction!!!! Full respect for your insight; And top tier view of humanity.. Respect my guy!!
Thank you for highlighting this talent and this moment in time.
Profound reaction I've ever had the blessed opportunity to watch. Simply amazing 👌🏾
thoroughly enjoyed this review Marc, goosebumps through and through!!
I love how how she has such strength in her voice but it never seems forced. It’s technically gorgeous but still has such power and feeling.
mmm, agreed.
Love this reaction....Your ending was everything and speaks volumes...Thank you!
I love to hear your reaction. 'And yes I too wait for that note
Yes you do every time I listen to the song tears come to my eyes
Your commentary is spot on❤️ she is magic. She is the queen of all❤️❤️ chills and tears. She is insanely talented. Bravo
This is probably your best reaction yet. Also, tbf she had very little chance to win cuz the competition was something else that day in the actresses category. Tho I was rooting for her on original song and I still think she should have won that. I'm so excited to see what she does next and I'm sure she'll get an Oscar soon🙌
her dress is an oscar
Sir Marc Daniel Patrick
I love the way you goes with this channel. As a theater classroom for arts and design students her phils. Your channel helps me alot to understand technicalities of musical theater. Thank you for everthing sir. Happy new year. I love erivo and salonga. They are my proofs of what is musical theater is all about. And oh i almost forget you are a hell of a coach here. I am fan of yours. Love from the phils.
This performance and this reaction are brilliant... as is your commentary at the end. 🙌🏼
you need to react to her version of 'Still Hurting", from The Last Five Year.
I know! I wish there was a video of it.
@@MarcDanielPatrick There is! Here you go! th-cam.com/video/TzGPx0W04YI/w-d-xo.html&start_radio=1
Amazing Reaction!! Thanks Marc.
Thank you so much Apo!
Thank you for such a thoughtful video. The pain I felt when she didn’t win… but again I was not surprised. New sub 🙋🏿♀️
thank you so much appreciate that
Hi Marc, love your reactions and especially this one because Cynthia and Shoshana are my two favorite singers!! You should do a reaction to or at least listen to ( if you haven't already ) Cynthia singing Scott Alan's Always/Goodnight, it's beautiful. Keep posting these great videos Marc!
She makes me think of Harriet every time I hear her sing it.
She's a Queen 👑
She is amazing
Would love to have you review her singing Always/goodbye……different singing style. Cynthia is the most amazing singer to come along in years . She is the real deal and connected to spirit…that is why she evokes such a reaction in us. I love her ….talented humble full of grace.
Very interesting reaction my friend!!
I’m here because of Thyaz Torres who also did a great rendition of this song in the Voice Chile 2022 if you can listen to Thyaz Torres a 16 year old !!
love your last phrases of the video
I LOVE this song and I LOVE this reaction!! You were so brilliant here, as well as Cynthia herself of course! Thank you for always providing honest reactions. I love watching them and hearing your insight.
Every time I listen to this song, I feel empowered as a black woman. The strange thing is, I feel both empowered and angered at the same time; angered that this is both the history and present reality of America. It is both an exhausting anger and a motivating one. My hope is that we, as a human race, never get too tired or too exhausted to continue fighting for real, full equality for all in every aspect of this life. My hope is that we stay as motivated as many seem to be right now, to breaking down barriers of all kinds.
You are right, it is pathetic that we are still having these conversations. It is incredibly sad and I’m glad that you pointed it out. It will take real honesty and real work on everyone’s part, whatever that work might look like for us individually, to create a different world than what we are so accustomed to. Here’s to hoping that we see it one day!!
I didn’t mean for this comment to get this deep 🙂 Again, wonderful reaction!
Comments like this, need to get deep - dont you dare apologize for that! So perfectly well said, Dominique
I think one of the best things Cynthia does in this perfomance is that she changes the tone of her voice throughout the song to match the music behind it. All of it is so fluid that you really don't think about it
5:24 The moment your soul reacted.
Yes
The Cynthia Erivo!!
Cynthia has done it again, she always make me cry 😭😭
Cynthia Erivo is literal goddess she is what I aspire to
Amazing videos 🙂
You're brilliant
She was robed! This oscar had her name on it! The first time I heard this song I was convinced she would win, cuz how could she not. I still can't wrap my head around this. Elthon's song was fine, nice, fun and loving. But THIS!! It still makes me sad. I know it's just a statue but the weight it has, the recognition for her as an artist and the story she is telling. This song was on a whole different level. And the ending always gets me, after this whole build up ; a quiet 'I'll go prepare a place for you'. This song will stay with me for years too come .(And I am sure with many others as well)
Again, Perfectly analogy
