This song tells the story of my country. Colombia is one of the countries with the most displaced by violence in the world. Despite the harsh reality, we have managed to get up to move forward and look towards a better future.
This is every true. For anyone wondering how violent, 9 out of 10 parades in Colombia, at least 1 person gets injured by a person with a knife. 40% of the time they die.
the part where Abuela cries and falls to her knees is so intense and emotional and raw and real...I'm in animation school and I can only hope to create something so real and moving like this moment and like this film.
Man that scene will never not make me cry. So heartbreaking. I also give so much props to the animators for the scene with her sitting on the floor holding her kids. That empty look of someone who’s been broken in every way imaginable
For me it's her eyes after they kiss. That sudden "wait...don't.." Even this long after watching the movie, that small detail is burned into my memory. Beautiful song. So powerful.
The part that always kills me is that when Alma stands back up after Pedro dies, everyone is looking at her. That need to appear strong didn't just start with the miracle
it kinda did though, the first part of the miracle just happened and it obviously centered around her and their wedding candle that the reason she needed to imidietly rise and play strong, cause people looked at her as a leader for her miracle and she clung to that. if it had centered around someone else she would not have needed to step up as a leader. the candle expelling the attackers and rising the mountains already was part of the miracle, not only casita or even later the gifts
@arianewinter4266 and that's the actions of someone who was told, through social/familial pressure or actual words, that strength disappears when you ask for help. So it wasn't a new thing, it's a standard
I've been waiting for someone in TH-cam to address the part where Abuela cried when Pedro died. It's so raw and genuine. Also, when Pedro kissed Alma before facing the soldiers, you can see on his face that he already accepted what's going to happen while Alma's eyes are wide open showing that she's in shock on what's happening and what's about to happen. 100% kudos to Disney on that and to you as well on acknowledging it. I'll be more than glad to join the family. #subscriptionsquad
I KNOW!! They did so amazingly at animating such realistic and deep heartbreak and agony in that scene. It's a big break from Disney's other works and it makes her feel all the more human and real as a person and character. It really helps to nail down why she's so stuck on things the way she is and how it was so easy for the trauma to trickle down to her children and grandchildren. And the way Alma's voice breaks when she says, "And..I am so sorry" is also such a wonderful touch, like she's on the verge of tears revisiting the memory.
Also, when Alma tells Mirabel about Pedro's death at the beginning of the movie, she doesn't show how he dies, why he did what he did, and she doesn't look that upset or in pain, showing how people tend to brush off or ignore their pain and feelings when they feel like they have nobody to talk to. Alma shutting down her trauma triggered that defense mechanism. And whenever she says "Pepa, you have a cloud/calm down" It's almost as if she's also reminding herself to try and stay as emotionless as possible to keep the encanto and family "safe" From her pain, without realizing she's hurting them by ignoring her pain
I love the subtle differences between the visuals when she tells the story at the beginning - the beautiful family legend/origin story that’s been polished to perfection - and the visuals here where you see the raw pain that Mirabel only just now understands was under the pretty story.
This song to me is a perfect example of why music is so powerful. I don't speak a lick of Spanish but I can feel every line. Feel the longing, the hope, the sadness, everything.
For non Spanish speakers, the song is called Dos Oruguitas, which means Two Caterpillars but nearing the end of the song they change it to Mariposas, which means Butterflies symbolizing that the family (Especially Abuela) have come out of their shell/chrysalis and opened themselves up
Sebastián is a Colombian singer and musician. He's been on the scene for about 6 years now. I highly recommend reacting to the live version of this as well as Sebastián's own music. He is such a beautiful and passionate singer. His performance at Festival Viña del Mar in Chile was outstanding ~ another recommended watch! 😍💕
This movie moves Colombians, because one of the most emotional scenes in the film reminds us of the displacement and violence that many of us experience as a result of the wars between guerrillas, paramilitaries, drug traffickers and the government. It reminds us of how many of our families lost one of their pillars (Dad) and how Mom had to rebuild her family from the ashes after losing everything. Our grandmothers and mothers are heroines for Colombians, they gave everything to rebuild their families, and our country. That is why the role of the grandmother in this film is important because thanks to all her sacrifices to her great strength, our house is being rebuilt, our beautiful home Colombia.
With how things are still going in Colombia, it wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if the people moved toward a matriarchal-focused structure rather than the patriarchal one currently in power. Same for many other places in the world, tbh. With Vladimir Putin (a man) starting a war, Donald Trump (a man) causing civil unrest in a global superpower, Xi Jin Ping (a man) ordering the arrest and execution of those who dare oppose the CCP, and increased awareness of Nice Guys and 'Incels', it wouldn't surprise me at all if the level-headed majority started moving toward a more matriarchal way of life. The biggest hurdle ahead of us right now, though, is the likelihood of World War 3. Should we avert that, I see matriarchies taking hold in a significant number of countries.
When you watch the full movie try watching with sub titles on during this song. The subtitles give you the English translation of what’s being sung and adds another level to the song imo.
You see, I watched the movie without subtitles and knowing JUST the context of the song while experiencing the music as is without translation is such a gratifying experience, I did not understand ANY WORD from the song but I UNDERSTOOD what the words were trying to say without fully knowing. IDK if that make any sense at all.
@@videomissionary she’s already seen the movie. She’s already experienced it without subtitles. Actually understanding what is being sung adds a new experience to watching the movie.
It's wonderful to see Disney addressing generational trauma, which is so common among the Americas black, indigenous, and peoples of color. Very timely, considering families of refugees we see present day.
De hecho le pasó gran parte de las comunidades rurales en Colombia con los grupos al margen de la ley guerrillas comunistas y paramilitar desplazando a familias y cometiendo masacres solo por pensar diferente en LATAM también hay grupos blancos mestizos hay de todo tipo incluso menonitas germanos
@@luchoasism7582 Iba a decir lo mismo...muchos de los afectados son blanquitos...no tiene nada que ver con la "raza" pero los estadounidenses estan obsesionados
its commen whereever there is or was war, jews experienced it pretty much as long as the religion existed, people at the border between german and poland, ukraine, russia, turky and syria just to name a few. in some countries the younger generation is lucky enough to no longer get it quite, but as generational trauma lingers, the aftershocks still effect how parents raised us, for at least teir parents parents still lived though war. Fleeing and oppression are not as fare in the past as one would think for example in germany, the wall came down in 1989, not even 10 years before my birth, 34 years ago everyone who was different, who wanted to be free was hunted, had to flee or die trying, families got ripped apart, where expected to betray eachother and the war had not been over long either . . . . this stuff lingers. Just as Miras generation does not seam to be aware of what happend and feels like its fare in the past does not change how it impresses itself upon how you are raised and hurt you all those years later . . . . . I adore how this movie shines a light on it and creats sympathy with both calling out the probems but also showing the explanation behind it and not put blame where it does not belong.
I appreciate honesty of Abuela’s brake down in this song. It’s not sanitized like the beginning, it’s not sexy or reserved it feel honest. And that makes it powerful.
I noticed that too. In the beginning when she’s explaining the miracle to Mirabel, at that part she doesn’t cry in the way she tells the story. Yet, at this scene, she was completely broken. She just put on this brave front for her family.
I love the meaning of dos oruguitas, Two caterpillars that have been together. But when they are cocoon they must embrace the change and become butterflies to move on to the next step. Like in ending the mountains where abuelo died are opened rather than closed off in the beginning
also you have "to let go and part to reunite". the family is broken, trying to cling to the past and prevent change will doom them, but if they let go and allow change, they can find eachother anew!!! They do not know eachother, they where all way to buisy laying a part, mirabel loathed who she thought isabel was only to be elated to see an new side in her, see her expressing who she really is and what she really wants! She instanty loves demasked isa who is both the sister she never quite could cenect and who suddenly is in reach and a totaly new wonderful person . . . they need to allow their old perceptions of themselfs, their roles and the others to die, to really get to know eachother anew and have a chance to grow togeather again, stronger, truer and more supportive
I get that people expected to see We don't talk about Bruno submitted to the Oscars...but this song is Soo impactful. It was a phenomenal choice. It may not win, but it was the right song to submit as a representative of the movie
It's about the Thousand Day War. There was alot of political conflict so whole villages left to escape the violence. The people on the horses would come and cut people's heads off with the machetes. There's also art of what happened, which shows a ton of people's heads in a pile. The people working at Disney visited Colombia and worked with a cultural center, so they really did their research. Also that scene with Alma crying is the most emotional scene I've ever seen in a Disney film. Makes me cry everytime.
Sad, and brutal I knew he was killed but I assumed it was a stab and he was bleeding out or something and Abuela saw him die, but a head being chopped off would be sad too, like your heart just instantly would break.
This song hits harder now when you think of the families in Ukraine going through what Abuela and Pablo went through. I saw a tiktok the other day of a soldier bringing supplies to his wife and infant child and the little child just hugged him and called him papa. It was heartbreaking.
This comment single-handedly brought me to tears. To think that war and violence and displacement are such a human experience. It could happen anywhere. Regardless of race or culture or country. It is heartbreaking on a fundamental level. We can only pray God comes soon to make it a better place
It's so sad. My family went through the same in Colombia, they had to run from home due to the violence and it's so sad to see the same happening all around the world.
It's still happening in Colombia. That's why forced migration was made such a prominent feature in the movie. People are dying and terrorized in rural areas of Colombia, forced to move as guerilla groups fight for territory and power.
This has been happening in Colombia for 100 years and keep counting to happen. Sadly, this happens inside the country. The violence wherever hits hard and cause too much pain :(
The saddest thing in the entire movie is at the beginning of dos oruguitas. Look closely at the butterfly flying by as Alma sees Pedro for time, did you notice how the butterfly flies past Pedro’s neck? The foreshadowing!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😭😢😭😢😢😢😭😢😭🥺
I saw the movie three times, I like every part of it and have every kind of emotion. And everytime I hear this song, I get goosebumps and nearly cry. Especially with this setup of the scene. Especially the scene where Pedro say goodbye to his family and Abuelas crying. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who say her cry is not beautiful (like the most cries in movies are), but raw, honest emotion floating out of her. I thought it the first time I saw that scene that this is "an ugly cry, an honest cry", and that's what makes this scene one of the "best" tragic scenes in Disney history. Love your videos and your reactions to songs. Your reactions and explanations are really nice and wholesome. And this one is no exception.
This song had me in literal tears and, incredibly, was the first to make me want to learn spanish so I could sing it in the future... I may not have Sebastian Yatra's voice (far be it from me, I'm barely okay) but this made me want to sing like NO other song was able to bring in me. So rich emotions.
Idk if anyone noticed (I was enlightened by another YTer- Knox Hill) but when Abuela Alma looked at her triplets, there was a triplet set change played on the harp in the background. It is gorgeous, and it (to me, at least) sets it up for new beginnings and hope
1, my favorite Spanish word has always been butterfly. 2 my favorite thing in music is when the melody changes after the bridge, even better when the lyrics change a bit... So naturally. This song has become one of my favorites ever.
Hola Danielle, muchísimas gracias por reaccionar al talento de mi país Colombia, es un orgullo escucharte hablar de esa manera de uno de los tantos artistas colombianos que luchan por hacer y crear arte en mi país, éxitos en tu canal, siempre veo tus videos, saludos desde Bogotá, Colombia 😘 🇨🇴
Dude your overtly positive energy is infectious. This song makes me ugly cry every flipping time, I dont understand more than 10 words of spanish but the emotion of the voice with the visuals... I've always had to enjoy lyrics and music separately because its like my brain can only hear the human voice as an instrument and not make out the lyrics, so I live songs in other languages but english
Same I know the lyrics but I don't understand them at the same time as listening to them but I uncontrollably cry every time I hear this Such an amazing song that makes you cry even if you don't know the lyrics
From what my friends have told me and the reaction videos I've seen, I might be the only person in the world to cry my eyes out during this scene. The combination of the singing and Abuela's heartbreak makes me cry.
Disney contacted Sebastian Yatra, the Colombian artist, because of his Adiós song which has similar emotions. If you watch the official video, you will see that the way Pedro was animated was probably based on how the singer looked in it.
Based on some of the interviews of the writers/creators, I think the one singing is supposed to be Pedro, since they are comparing Sebastián Yatra's age with Pedro at the time the tragedy happened.
Also, when you watch it again, watch her (Alberta) face in the beginning when she’s telling the story to Maribel. When she gets to that part she “pretty cries”. But when Maribel sees it herself, you (and her) finally see the true emotion. I feel like most of this movie starts with perceptions and then as the movie goes on, Maribel gets to see everyone’s true self. Soo good!!
La canción tiene un profundo significado, no sólo para la historia de la película, sino para casi cualquier historia en donde aparece la dificultad, los reveses, el dolor, pero también el triunfo, el amor de familia y el apoyo de los tuyos. Gracias por el video.
Although the last song of the movie, "All Of You", is my favorite, "Dos Oruguitas" always touches my heart in a way that I can't watch this clip without crying, remembering that's not just the story of Alma Madrigal; that was the history of many people who lived through the Thousand Days' War in the 1900's Colombia...
I love that you liked it and that it will touch your soul, because in that song is the history and soul of Colombians, thanks for choosing the song, a thousand hugs and millions of blessings
Sebastian Yatra is a Colombian singer and songwriter. His voice is just amazing for this song.. the story behind it, MY GOD!!! Always tears me up :'( Lin Manuel is a brilliant writer and also used Carlos Vives, another Colombian singer for the final song "Colombia, mi Encanto"
I'm loving so much your reactions to Encanto; this particular song of all the songs in the movie hits hard for us Colombians, because this really happens!, many of our abuelas had to raise their families alone due to internal wars, that's why they are the pillar of the families, "the bosses" and they are highly respected. It would be great to see your reactions to Tick, Tick... Boom!, it's a musical by the same director as Encanto, Lin Manuel Miranda, it's great, I also recommend you listen to Sofia Carson, she has a unique voice, her last song is called LOUD, which came out recently.
I've subscribed a few weeks ago because I could relate to all your Encanto reactions. Absolutely love your videos because your expressions for all music is always cheery! Keep uploading as much as you can because this channel feels like a family!
at 10:17 - "aye mariposas..." the subject of the song has changed, along with his voice and the style - mariposa means butterfly... It's all connected...
Sebastian Yatra is a famous vocalist in Colombia and I can see why. Besides turning on close caption for the translation, Sebastian sings the translation in the credits. You can hear some other songs on TH-cam or a live performance of Dos Oruguitas th-cam.com/video/n_k8H3uct1o/w-d-xo.html or listen to Howard Ho about the secret meaning of Dos Oruguitas th-cam.com/video/lntYjsU8KkI/w-d-xo.html
Puedo ver esta escena muchas veces y siempre lloro porque relata la realidad de mi país y crea emociones encontradas, en una escena Yam dolorosa pero hermosa
you should react to the live version of this song that was released a couple days ago, you can see everyone playing the different instruments and sebastian’s voice is just beautiful
#subscriptionsquad Yeah, everything you’ve said is point on. It makes you cry. It makes me cry every time. It’s simplistic. Abuela Alma’s cry is very visceral. It sends shivers down your spine. Just everything about this part of the movie, seeing this part of Abuela, the movie without it just wouldn’t be the same at all.
i’m so glad they did. We Don’t Talk About Bruno might be the most popular and the audience favorite, but this song is absolutely touching and has a beautiful meaning
Sebastian Yatra tiene en este momento una canción con más de 106 millones,se la recomiendo,el es un gran arista y es Colombiano como la película "encanto" la canción es "tacones rojos" véala por favor y escuche su voz y su talento.Un abrazo desde la distancia.
l really love this song, it's so beautiful and significant, oh my God... Congratulations on the video. I love all this and this song has many Colombian characteristics KKK l love your videossss!!!!
This song makes me cry every time. It's so beautiful. Also, off subject, please review Voiceplay's version of We Don't Talk About Bruno. It's soooo good!
Love your reactions! :) Also, glad you've already seen the movie, as the ending to We Don't Talk About Bruno is a bit of a spoiler, visually. If you're interested, Howard Ho has done a more analytical breakdown of We Don't Talk About Bruno, Dos Oruguitas, and Surface Pressure, applying music theory to the songs; the way the songs all tie into the overall arch of the movie, and what how the songs were written shows about the characters, is mind-blowing.
I'll point out that the tune of this song is a revamped version of Under the Sea from the Little Mermaid. I think it's genius. That song is so happy but this song is so sad. Two contrasting songs both completely great and both Disney. I feel like it shows Disney realizing they have entered another era. The last couple of movies in particular just feel different.
I am colombian and personally this song and backstory made me cry bc my grandma got killed by the guerillas which r the people who killed the abuelo in encanto
In hundred years of solitude, the yellow butterflies represents the impossible love, I think in this movie represents the pass from caterpillar (oruguita and sorry sounds better in spanish, is more cute) to butterfly, because Maribel is mature enough to break ghe cycle of intergenerational trauma, also even tough it maintains the synbolism of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, it changes and enhances, for a new kind of love, don't you think? Full of meaning! Beautiful!
For the first time in Disney history, they finally show the struggle of refugees in South America and the Ukraine and why they are forced to leave their homes. I sure hope that Encanto dose far better then Frozen did and wins a lot of awards and is used as an example of how not to treat people who flee their homes!
This song tells the story of my country. Colombia is one of the countries with the most displaced by violence in the world. Despite the harsh reality, we have managed to get up to move forward and look towards a better future.
This is every true. For anyone wondering how violent, 9 out of 10 parades in Colombia, at least 1 person gets injured by a person with a knife. 40% of the time they die.

It's so sad. My family went through the same in Colombia, they had to run from home due to the violence and it's so sad to see the same happening all around the world.
It's still happening in Colombia. That's why forced migration was made such a prominent feature in the movie. People are dying and terrorized in rural areas of Colombia, forced to move as guerilla groups fight for territory and power.
Yeah I'm Colombian but Ukrainians also came to my head when this song came out 😭😭😭😭
This has been happening in Colombia for 100 years and keep counting to happen. Sadly, this happens inside the country. The violence wherever hits hard and cause too much pain :(
The saddest thing in the entire movie is at the beginning of dos oruguitas. Look closely at the butterfly flying by as Alma sees Pedro for time, did you notice how the butterfly flies past Pedro’s neck? The foreshadowing!😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢😭😢😭😢😢😢😭😢😭🥺
I dont typically cry in songs, but humming them definitely makes me feel like i will if i continue to. What a beautiful song. What a message
I saw the movie three times, I like every part of it and have every kind of emotion. And everytime I hear this song, I get goosebumps and nearly cry. Especially with this setup of the scene. Especially the scene where Pedro say goodbye to his family and Abuelas crying.
And I'm glad I'm not the only one who say her cry is not beautiful (like the most cries in movies are), but raw, honest emotion floating out of her. I thought it the first time I saw that scene that this is "an ugly cry, an honest cry", and that's what makes this scene one of the "best" tragic scenes in Disney history.
Love your videos and your reactions to songs. Your reactions and explanations are really nice and wholesome. And this one is no exception.
The lyrics always hit hard. And the visual just makes me teary eyes. Sebastián Yatra is a singer in Latin America and he has such a stunning voice
This song had me in literal tears and, incredibly, was the first to make me want to learn spanish so I could sing it in the future... I may not have Sebastian Yatra's voice (far be it from me, I'm barely okay) but this made me want to sing like NO other song was able to bring in me.
So rich emotions.
Idk if anyone noticed (I was enlightened by another YTer- Knox Hill) but when Abuela Alma looked at her triplets, there was a triplet set change played on the harp in the background. It is gorgeous, and it (to me, at least) sets it up for new beginnings and hope
1, my favorite Spanish word has always been butterfly.
2 my favorite thing in music is when the melody changes after the bridge, even better when the lyrics change a bit...
So naturally. This song has become one of my favorites ever.
Hola Danielle, muchísimas gracias por reaccionar al talento de mi país Colombia, es un orgullo escucharte hablar de esa manera de uno de los tantos artistas colombianos que luchan por hacer y crear arte en mi país, éxitos en tu canal, siempre veo tus videos, saludos desde Bogotá, Colombia 😘 🇨🇴
Dude your overtly positive energy is infectious.
This song makes me ugly cry every flipping time, I dont understand more than 10 words of spanish but the emotion of the voice with the visuals... I've always had to enjoy lyrics and music separately because its like my brain can only hear the human voice as an instrument and not make out the lyrics, so I live songs in other languages but english
Same
I know the lyrics but I don't understand them at the same time as listening to them but I uncontrollably cry every time I hear this
Such an amazing song that makes you cry even if you don't know the lyrics
Have y'all listened to the English version? It hits so much harder when you understand the lyrics.
From what my friends have told me and the reaction videos I've seen, I might be the only person in the world to cry my eyes out during this scene. The combination of the singing and Abuela's heartbreak makes me cry.
Disney contacted Sebastian Yatra, the Colombian artist, because of his Adiós song which has similar emotions. If you watch the official video, you will see that the way Pedro was animated was probably based on how the singer looked in it.
I can not blame you for stopping all the time, I am still crying and I have listend and watched this song over a hundred times!!!
5 MINUTES! Girl, you know they did something right when a 5 minute song feels like it came and went 💨 !
This is literally the one Disney song that makes me cry EVERY TIME.
Based on some of the interviews of the writers/creators, I think the one singing is supposed to be Pedro, since they are comparing Sebastián Yatra's age with Pedro at the time the tragedy happened.
And they look quite a like!
This song absolutely makes me bawl my eyes out. The entire movie did, but this song in particular is just a heavy tear creater.
2:00 "I thought this was going to be a happy song!"
It was at this moment she realized she'd made a wrong assumption. :D
Danielle I really like your reactions, it's a song with all the feelings, it's a roller coaster, greetings from Colombia.
I'm crying my eyes out! Beautiful song and perfect emotional moment. Perfect match!
Also, when you watch it again, watch her (Alberta) face in the beginning when she’s telling the story to Maribel. When she gets to that part she “pretty cries”. But when Maribel sees it herself, you (and her) finally see the true emotion. I feel like most of this movie starts with perceptions and then as the movie goes on, Maribel gets to see everyone’s true self. Soo good!!
You have to listen the English versión of the song. Sebastián sings it, the lyrics its just perfect. Kisses from Colombia, love your videos. 🤍🤍
I know when you read the Spanish lyrics, it makes the song so much more emotional. I love this song-I love encanto- and I love your videos! Thanks
La canción tiene un profundo significado, no sólo para la historia de la película, sino para casi cualquier historia en donde aparece la dificultad, los reveses, el dolor, pero también el triunfo, el amor de familia y el apoyo de los tuyos. Gracias por el video.
Although the last song of the movie, "All Of You", is my favorite, "Dos Oruguitas" always touches my heart in a way that I can't watch this clip without crying, remembering that's not just the story of Alma Madrigal; that was the history of many people who lived through the Thousand Days' War in the 1900's Colombia...
I'm Colombian and I always cry in this part. This situation has been hard for my country 😔
OMG why is ur makeup always to GOODDDD (I also cried at this movie and no matter how many times I watch it I cry 😭)
I love that you liked it and that it will touch your soul, because in that song is the history and soul of Colombians, thanks for choosing the song, a thousand hugs and millions of blessings
Sebastian Yatra is a Colombian singer and songwriter. His voice is just amazing for this song.. the story behind it, MY GOD!!! Always tears me up :'( Lin Manuel is a brilliant writer and also used Carlos Vives, another Colombian singer for the final song "Colombia, mi Encanto"
I'm loving so much your reactions to Encanto; this particular song of all the songs in the movie hits hard for us Colombians, because this really happens!, many of our abuelas had to raise their families alone due to internal wars, that's why they are the pillar of the families, "the bosses" and they are highly respected.
It would be great to see your reactions to Tick, Tick... Boom!, it's a musical by the same director as Encanto, Lin Manuel Miranda, it's great, I also recommend you listen to Sofia Carson, she has a unique voice, her last song is called LOUD, which came out recently.
With this song fresh in mind go watch Family Madrigal and get your heart ripped out when you realize Abuela's 'solo' part is set to Dos Oruguitas.
That scene is really touching, specially if you're Colombian. That's the harsh reality of many people from the countryside. It's really sad!
"I thought this was going to be a happy song" Oh honey.
It’s sad, but still happy and full of hope. Beautiful.
I've subscribed a few weeks ago because I could relate to all your Encanto reactions. Absolutely love your videos because your expressions for all music is always cheery! Keep uploading as much as you can because this channel feels like a family!
it's like the fluffy feeling of first love, then heartbreak, lastly rejoice
Me encanta tu reacción, natural y profesional. Un fuerte abrazo
If you haven't seen it already, Sebastian Yatra sings the English lyrics during the closing credits of the movie; it's just as beautiful as this.
There is an english version. You should check it out next. An amazing story is told.
The magic of colombian music! Besides the story an characters, the magic of that beautiful music, that's the key...and I'm not even from Colombia!
at 10:17 - "aye mariposas..." the subject of the song has changed, along with his voice and the style - mariposa means butterfly... It's all connected...
Loved it!! Such a beautiful song. Then again, every song in the movie is beautiful!! ❤️🙏

I really love your Encanto reaction videos. Thank you for reacting to them. Keep making awesome videos. ❤️

Sebastian Yatra is a famous vocalist in Colombia and I can see why. Besides turning on close caption for the translation, Sebastian sings the translation in the credits. You can hear some other songs on TH-cam or a live performance of Dos Oruguitas th-cam.com/video/n_k8H3uct1o/w-d-xo.html or listen to Howard Ho about the secret meaning of Dos Oruguitas th-cam.com/video/lntYjsU8KkI/w-d-xo.html
I have a knot in my throat during the entire time while listening to this one. It just gets to me.
Puedo ver esta escena muchas veces y siempre lloro porque relata la realidad de mi país y crea emociones encontradas, en una escena Yam dolorosa pero hermosa
you should react to the live version of this song that was released a couple days ago, you can see everyone playing the different instruments and sebastian’s voice is just beautiful
#subscriptionsquad Yeah, everything you’ve said is point on. It makes you cry. It makes me cry every time. It’s simplistic. Abuela Alma’s cry is very visceral. It sends shivers down your spine. Just everything about this part of the movie, seeing this part of Abuela, the movie without it just wouldn’t be the same at all.
This song give me actual chills.
This is the song they put forth for Golden Globes and Oscars nominations.
i’m so glad they did. We Don’t Talk About Bruno might be the most popular and the audience favorite, but this song is absolutely touching and has a beautiful meaning
todas las veces que oigo esta canción y veo las imagenes..... me saltan lágrimas. Bravo Sebastian Yatra. Thnks for reacting
Sebastian Yatra tiene en este momento una canción con más de 106 millones,se la recomiendo,el es un gran arista y es Colombiano como la película "encanto" la canción es "tacones rojos" véala por favor y escuche su voz y su talento.Un abrazo desde la distancia.
l really love this song, it's so beautiful and significant, oh my God... Congratulations on the video. I love all this and this song has many Colombian characteristics KKK l love your videossss!!!!
Encanto is one of the greatest Disney movies.#subscriptionsquad
The best song of the movie hands down
This song makes me cry every time. It's so beautiful. Also, off subject, please review Voiceplay's version of We Don't Talk About Bruno. It's soooo good!
I second this request! :D
It would be great to see your reaction to “Colombia mi encanto”Awesome performance by another great Colombian singer Carlos Vives.
and for reference, the river at the end is based on a real place in colombia called "caño cristales" :)
Love your reactions! :) Also, glad you've already seen the movie, as the ending to We Don't Talk About Bruno is a bit of a spoiler, visually. If you're interested, Howard Ho has done a more analytical breakdown of We Don't Talk About Bruno, Dos Oruguitas, and Surface Pressure, applying music theory to the songs; the way the songs all tie into the overall arch of the movie, and what how the songs were written shows about the characters, is mind-blowing.
That’s my country!!!! I love you and will keep on making Milagros
You HAVE to watch it with subtitles. The lyrics will touch you even more!
You should react to the live version video they just put out for this song! Love it too
I cant watch this or hear it without crying!
I was waiting for this, thanks! I love this song and I love your channel
I'll point out that the tune of this song is a revamped version of Under the Sea from the Little Mermaid. I think it's genius. That song is so happy but this song is so sad. Two contrasting songs both completely great and both Disney. I feel like it shows Disney realizing they have entered another era. The last couple of movies in particular just feel different.
He's a colombian singer
I was waiting for this reaction! Awesome :)
this song deserves a restraining order, it makes me cry everytime
This song made me cry so hard.
I am colombian and personally this song and backstory made me cry bc my grandma got killed by the guerillas which r the people who killed the abuelo in encanto
I cried again seeing this reaction.😭😭😭
I love this song, I love your video, I love you!!! greetings from Colombia!!!
Aww hell yeah!!!!! Can’t wait!
I like ur username
@@Just_A_Rando29 thank you! 😘✌🏻
This song deserved the Oscar
yes you are correct i am spanish from puerto rico not many people know about it so :D
I LEGIT LAUGHED WHEN YOU SAID (oh SHES A B!@CH
I cry every time I watch this movie
There's a live version of this too.
I am proud to say that I can sing the Dos Oruguitas although I don't speak that language.
In hundred years of solitude, the yellow butterflies represents the impossible love, I think in this movie represents the pass from caterpillar (oruguita and sorry sounds better in spanish, is more cute) to butterfly, because Maribel is mature enough to break ghe cycle of intergenerational trauma, also even tough it maintains the synbolism of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, it changes and enhances, for a new kind of love, don't you think? Full of meaning! Beautiful!
For the first time in Disney history, they finally show the struggle of refugees in South America and the Ukraine and why they are forced to leave their homes. I sure hope that Encanto dose far better then Frozen did and wins a lot of awards and is used as an example of how not to treat people who flee their homes!
Damn I cried 😢 😭 that is so beautiful I've ever seen 😭 😢
