+CrazyMix23 I read the book first. The movie adds so much to the book! It just like changes half the story! Still, the movie was great. The only thing I wish they didn't change was that in the book Jonas is 12, in the movie he is 18.
"Feelings are just fleeting, on the surface. But emotions, they are very deep, primal, they linger . . . You might not understand where you are or what's happening, but don't *think* about what you are seeing. LISTEN.... _listen_ to what is calling from inside."
There's such a small chance that you'll ever see this but if you're still around, you should check out "Explained" on Netflix. There's an episode about music that goes into the biology and psychology of the music that surrounds us.
As different as the movie was from the book, I really love this scene.. this song is one of very few songs that moves me, and imagine it being the first piece of music you ever hear.. incredible, really.
At 2:15 when the music and the dancing appear, it completely takes over my emotions and moves me in a way that only music can. Its beautiful . I think it affects many of you the same way. I hope so.
+Valerie Hund I know right in my class we read the book first and we loved it and then we saw the movie and I loved it. And that's like 1 of 67 students. Everyone but me was bitchin about the part that were in the book and we're not in the movie.
+Micheal Spears What I mean to say is a video game based PURELY on the book. I know the first three video game adaptations of the Harry Potter series balanced the book and movie references quite right. Even the video game adaptations of the Hobbit took some elements from the source material as well as the movie.
I never cry for any movies but during this scene, I felt the emotion that The Giver was talking about and that Jonas' community was missing. Tears came down.
This song makes me wish we lived in a world without crime and we all lived in peace to strive to better ourselves. Sadly that's only in the federation universe.
S Q Having a perfect world means getting rid of everything everyone find as a flaw (people aren’t flaws) and everyone loves things people find as a flaw (reference to Steven Universe Change your mind episode)
"Feelings are just fleeting, on the surface. But emotions, they're very deep, primal, they linger. Jonas, you might not understand where you are or what's happening, but don't think about what you're seeing. Listen. Listen to what's calling from inside." One of the best lines from a movie ever.
I understand why he explains emotions when playing the piano. As a (very bad) pianist I know the only way to play a song well, is to put your own emotions into them.
I know, I'm tired of people choosing the book just because the movie doesn't follow it perfectly. A lot of times the movies make the story even better by adding stuff the real author didn't think of.
@@RemedyUnderTheSun i liked the scene a lot, I think the movie complements the book, after all is an adaptation and adaptations dont have to be the exact same
exactly :) were always being watched there are cameras on every corner, everyone is on some type of medication, the us government monitors anything and everything we do... its a crazy time to e alive
I have started the last week by waking up, and weeping, first sadness, followed by tears of joy. Usually for 30 minutes i will ball my eyes out. Only in that moment I feel the most human. I feel what IS inside of me, and it wants out. I want to be fully human.
One of the things I like about the rosemary theme, is that to me. It makes me feel almost every emotion. Love, loss sadness happiness. And hope. This song has power, more than that of a congress president or king. If more people listened, we would be in a better place.
It's beautiful because there is pain and joy and very strong emotions so strong that it brought me to tears and who ever create this is a musical genius and understands the way of life through... the way of hearing and seeing the gift of memories.
The movie deserves so much more attention and love. The story is beautifully portrayed and even though it's different from the book, it still is really good
I watched this movie today, as we had previously listened to the audio book. I felt this scene on a spiritual level, as I also play the piano. I felt like breaking down into tears but I couldn’t because I was in font of my peers.. it’s such a good movie with such deep meaning
As a metal musician, this really captures what it's like to create music in general. It's the pinnacle of our emotions and how we express ourselves in the best way possible. I really appreciate this scene and it always gives me chills.
Probably the best scene in this movie. One of the most meaningful for what the story is trying to portray. And one that affects Jonas the most out of all except maybe the first real transfer he receives. A good performance by Jeff Bridges.
This is truly the most amazing movie I have ever seen. It tells and shows the loving things, and the horrible things about the world that they never knew. Including music, and emotion.
This was one of my favorite books growing up. It was crazy to watch even though they left alot of stuff out and changed a few things I still liked it. This scene was one of my favorites. It gave me goosebumps when he teaching about emotions while playing the piano to transitioning to the memory
I feel like Jonas when I listen to this. Its just, I have heard music before, unlike him.. But never any music like this. The song is just so beautiful. By the way, if anyone knows, why wrote the song?
I’m obsessed with this scene because one, I love the music so much, two, I love how he is playing the piano as he is talking, it is just such a great scene
I like how the giver says I'm not very good even though I had a very good teacher... That holds true with many things, a person who is very good at something got that way because of the person mentoring them and that person recognized something in you that you didnt know you had and pushed you to be better than them, even though you will never think you are, the world needs more of those people
This song so many emotions sadnesses happiness loneliness together all these emotions come to me when I hear this song and thx for making this beautiful song
You know a good song when it can make you smile, bring a tear to your eye, inspire you and just leave a whole mess of emotions inside you. This is one of those few songs that are like that (for me Atleast) from the first A to the final note. I'm currently learning it myself. A beautiful piece, this is.
I’m glad y’all saying what yall saying cuz I thought I was weird or something for having goosebumps, feeling my tears well up, feeling the primal emotions he’s talking about... it’s so strange!
I remember I read and saw the giver (book and movie) when I was in 5th grade now I'm in 7th grade so close go high school , proud I got that far, and I learned to play piano at near the beginning of this new year in 7th grade , I'm still learning since I don't know how to read sheet music that well yet , but I do know a couple of songs , so because I was playing my piano I just started playing random notes because I was bored and I wanted to see if someday I could make my own music with the piano , then I play the notes A , C, E in a specific pattern and it sounded so familiar, I stressed myself to remember were it came from, than I remembered this wonder story and the music , I quickly type in my tablet tutorials for this song and now I'm learning this beautiful piece with such great meaning , I decided I want to see this movie again I want to read the book again it's was just to good to be read/saw only once , So now I'm here 2 years later and since I was in 5th grade I dreamed of someday playing this piece and that "someday" in today and tomorrow and beyond
Amazing how much music can provide such an outlet... music provides life with growth, heart, and positive energy, no matter what its about, listening to this song whils hes narrating, explaining how music has affected his life.... without my music, listening and playing, i dont know where i would be. im sure most can relate. use music as a life tool
I saw this when I was seven and at this moment, with all of what they had built up, I realized that life isn't all fun and games. This song made me feel things that I feel no where else. Now that I have a better understanding of the message that it was conveying, it hits hard. And even today, six years later, I still associate this song with everything that I feel. I also get very cuddly affectionate and tear up when I hear it.
I watched a part of this movie at my school, and then I watched it till the end at home. I loved it soooo muchhhh. Now this is one of my favorites movies, everyone should watch it.
One morning, as chill as any other day on its first hours, I wake and get up to watch some morning t.v. like any other weekend. I choose my fav channel to watch something, whatever the local t.v. allows with its budget. It shows me an already started movie. I decide to watch, since the lack of colors like those old movies catches my eye, as well as the high definition images that tells me this is no ordinary black and white old movie, but one with a deep message. The film had no title, so I had no idea on what or where to search or how to share what I just saw. Years later, this movie came back in my memory, so I just search with my only plausible clue: "The Giver". Found out the movie's title, where to watch and what it's based on. This is the impact it had on me. Completely burned in my core memory.
I watched this movie a long time ago, recently we saw this movie in school and it’s still as good as I remembered. Something that stands out in this movie is the music, damn it’s good
when i first watched this movie, it was in class, after we had read the book and when the scene came i started balling my eyes from the music and my classmates thought there was something wrong with me 😂
This is probably my favorite scene from the movie. So much depth in it. Overall the movie is amazing, i'm so annoyed that Divergent overshadowed it, this was supposed to be the futuristic dystopia YA movie for everyone to talk about
this piano is magnificent.. all these people that try to recreate this piece do not do justice. The pianist who did this piece for the movie is a legend with amazing timing... no one seems to understand how to remake it perfectly like this.
My absolute favorite scene in the movie
Mine too
+McNipple Tron same here
XD
Can you imagine? Never hearing music and for the first time, hearing a beautiful song like that.
+McNipple Tron same
+McNipple Tron same. exept for mabey when the memories return or when Jonas decides hes ready
This scene led me to understand how truly gifted we are to have music in are lives!
Not just music, this movie taught me to appreciate everything we feel and see
Dominic M too bad we can't have proper grammar
"precision of language"
PRECISION OF LANGUAGE PLEASE DOMINIC
Brandon Banks lol
Amazing scene. It wasn't in the book but this captures the theme of the giver.
+CrazyMix23 I read the book first. The movie adds so much to the book! It just like changes half the story! Still, the movie was great. The only thing I wish they didn't change was that in the book Jonas is 12, in the movie he is 18.
+RongeyFilms it's better when he's older.
+RongeyGames im not trying so be smart and all but the author of the book said that they were 16 in the movie not 18
kristina shapovalov I thought in the book, Jonas just turned 12?
jeremiah petty yea but in English class we discussed that they were trying to relate it to our world by being 18
This movie didn’t get the attention it deserves. So underrated.
Bates DD shows some hidden truth about heaven see the tree of life
Dude wtf? I mean like literally everyone is doing this in their schools, the book and the film. So it's getting much attention
Bates DD its nothing like the book sooo
Here's sheet music to the song for whoever wants it

It’s a Rock Fact the movie is only good if you read the book. It’s not that great without it
"Feelings are just fleeting, on the surface. But emotions, they are very deep, primal, they linger . . . You might not understand where you are or what's happening, but don't *think* about what you are seeing. LISTEN.... _listen_ to what is calling from inside."
Dean Garber "precision of language please"
Brandon Banks "I could not be more precise."
This book and then movie changed the entire way that I look at my life.
Brandon Banks it’s straight from
The movie; it’s as precise as it gets when it’s a straight quote and has the proper grammar.
I was looking for this quote
I get goose bumps every time I listen to this its so pretty
Me to it's the weirdest thing it really makes you think about life
Me too!
It's the primal emotions the giver was talking about!
me too
Amy Lu :D
I can't imagine a life without music
Nia Richardson me neither
There's such a small chance that you'll ever see this but if you're still around, you should check out "Explained" on Netflix. There's an episode about music that goes into the biology and psychology of the music that surrounds us.
@@jude2223 thanks
Jude222 e
Me neither
As different as the movie was from the book, I really love this scene.. this song is one of very few songs that moves me, and imagine it being the first piece of music you ever hear.. incredible, really.
I completely agree
Woah
Ashley Thomsen I know what you feel I have been practicing for a while and I’ve almost got it down
There are countless pieces of music that truly move me, and this piece is one of them! So beautiful, full of profound emotions!
Who else read the book and watched the movie in school
Colby Wilson me
Me
Finished the movie to day in school
I’m doing that right now watching to movie next week
Me
This was such a great movie, especially the way the memories are done.
I agree the memories were very artistic and colorful and really made the movie beautiful
i have to say it is a good movie but i do like the book better
Don't mean to be rude but the movie is kind of bland.
At 2:15 when the music and the dancing appear, it completely takes over my emotions and moves me in a way that only music can. Its beautiful . I think it affects many of you the same way. I hope so.
rrhone i was thinking the same thing, just didn't know how to explain
This scene is the visual embodiment of pure joy.
It really does I thought it was just me
THE Giver: "You're not seeing anything today."
10 seconds later he gives a memory to Jonas
Brick By Brick He might have been using the lie rule, or he genuinely forgot.
He is seeing with his mind, with his emotions. The music becomes the vision.
He only showed him the music, Jonas mind did the rest..
Enjoy :)
He's _not_ seeing anything. He's hearing something.
Levi Burns he saw people dancing but ok and Enderz he saw a girl dancing and heard music BUT WHATEVER U SAY APPARENTLY
Oh yeah, forgot about that part.
"The table? All the food would slide to the floor..." I didn't hear him say this while watching the movie but now I find it humorous.
The giver is such a good movie! I also enjoyed the book as well!
It was wonderful.
It's nice to see someone who also likes the movie and the book equally
+Valerie Hund I know right in my class we read the book first and we loved it and then we saw the movie and I loved it. And that's like 1 of 67 students. Everyone but me was bitchin about the part that were in the book and we're not in the movie.
I also wonder if the book would make a great video game.
+Jake Rutigliano some movie video games don't make it very far
+Micheal Spears What I mean to say is a video game based PURELY on the book. I know the first three video game adaptations of the Harry Potter series balanced the book and movie references quite right. Even the video game adaptations of the Hobbit took some elements from the source material as well as the movie.
I never cry for any movies but during this scene, I felt the emotion that The Giver was talking about and that Jonas' community was missing. Tears came down.
Shane Jiang Me too! I rarely cry during movies and this scene made me ball my eyes out.
This song makes me want to cry but also happy. When I hear the song it makes me have mixed emotions
same man
I think that's why they chose this song
This song makes me wish we lived in a world without crime and we all lived in peace to strive to better ourselves. Sadly that's only in the federation universe.
S Q Having a perfect world means getting rid of everything everyone find as a flaw (people aren’t flaws) and everyone loves things people find as a flaw (reference to Steven Universe Change your mind episode)
Precision of Language.
This is the best scene in the whole movie...The Giver's voice is so calming, especially while he's playing the beautiful melody,
"Feelings are just fleeting, on the surface. But emotions, they're very deep, primal, they linger. Jonas, you might not understand where you are or what's happening, but don't think about what you're seeing. Listen. Listen to what's calling from inside." One of the best lines from a movie ever.
I understand why he explains emotions when playing the piano. As a (very bad) pianist I know the only way to play a song well, is to put your own emotions into them.
This is my favorite scene in the entire movie like if you agree
Gaming Heroes I so agree with u on this
_TheAlbinoPheonix _ same🦀
2:21 to 2:37 is amazing! I wish there was a whole song of just that part.
It's actually not that hard to play
same!!!!
Kpow414 So there’s no official song attached to this part? :( Even for the pianio part itself?
th-cam.com/video/AJQwF6VHluQ/w-d-xo.html
This is the song with both the piano and the violin. It's my favorite song right now.
This was one of the very special and rare scenarios where I actually preferred the movie over the book!!! Anybody else?
Izzy ya aa biiiuuuoiiii
I love both equally
I know, I'm tired of people choosing the book just because the movie doesn't follow it perfectly. A lot of times the movies make the story even better by adding stuff the real author didn't think of.
@@RemedyUnderTheSun i liked the scene a lot, I think the movie complements the book, after all is an adaptation and adaptations dont have to be the exact same
@@RemedyUnderTheSun When I love both the book and the movie, even if they're somewhat different, I love having two versions of the story to enjoy.
Quite liked the movie. It wasn't the book for sure, but it was really good nonetheless. And this scene is really good.
So powerful. our world is a lot more like this one than most people realize.
Brian Hunter i was thinking the exact same thing. Everything is fake. Just plain fake. It's really freakin sad actually...
exactly :) were always being watched there are cameras on every corner, everyone is on some type of medication, the us government monitors anything and everything we do... its a crazy time to e alive
Brian Hunter and everyone tries to be the same and they don't show their real emotions. It is a hard time to be alive...
I have started the last week by waking up, and weeping, first sadness, followed by tears of joy.
Usually for 30 minutes i will ball my eyes out.
Only in that moment I feel the most human. I feel what IS inside of me, and it wants out. I want to be fully human.
aw
One of the things I like about the rosemary theme, is that to me. It makes me feel almost every emotion. Love, loss sadness happiness. And hope. This song has power, more than that of a congress president or king. If more people listened, we would be in a better place.
Jonas seems so fascinated. I believe that we have all taken music for granted. We are blessed to have it.
I just want that violin version that played during the wedding!!! If only I could find it!
It’s only the violin but it’s called the giver rosemary’s theme piano and violin
William Lowery me too!!
I'll play it at your wedding!!
So many years sense I’ve seen this for the first time and this scene still gives me chills! One of my all time favorites to hear on a piano
Best scene. We watched this in class today and it felt truly magical.
I loved this movie and the book so much I love the music
It's beautiful because there is pain and joy and very strong emotions so strong that it brought me to tears and who ever create this is a musical genius and understands the way of life through... the way of hearing and seeing the gift of memories.
The movie deserves so much more attention and love. The story is beautifully portrayed and even though it's different from the book, it still is really good
This scene always gave me chills and I’ll never forget it
This actually made me feel true powerful emotions that I can’t explain...
When he gives him the memories of music, and they go back in time to ancient music when everyone seemed so happy, such a beautiful scene
I watched this movie today, as we had previously listened to the audio book. I felt this scene on a spiritual level, as I also play the piano. I felt like breaking down into tears but I couldn’t because I was in font of my peers.. it’s such a good movie with such deep meaning
well I'm inspired and when I hear music that makes me feel I remember how much I love music!!!
I replayed this scene at least four times it’s so beautiful ugh
I cannot remember anything from this movie except for this one scene. It’s beauty and (ironically) the emotion stuck with me all of this time.
Beautiful. And one of the best movies I've ever seen
2:07 I deadass thought he was about to start a rap
As a metal musician, this really captures what it's like to create music in general. It's the pinnacle of our emotions and how we express ourselves in the best way possible. I really appreciate this scene and it always gives me chills.
If only we still had this type of music today
here in 2022 and this scene gives me chills unlike any other
Probably the best scene in this movie. One of the most meaningful for what the story is trying to portray. And one that affects Jonas the most out of all except maybe the first real transfer he receives. A good performance by Jeff Bridges.
At 2:07 I thought he was gonna start spitting bars
Wym, he did
FR LMFAO😭😭
This is truly the most amazing movie I have ever seen. It tells and shows the loving things, and the horrible things about the world that they never knew. Including music, and emotion.
This scene make me appreciate freedom and life. Its been 6 years since i watched this movie and it still linger in my mind.
This was one of my favorite books growing up. It was crazy to watch even though they left alot of stuff out and changed a few things I still liked it. This scene was one of my favorites. It gave me goosebumps when he teaching about emotions while playing the piano to transitioning to the memory
Favorite part of the movie!!😭😞😭😄
IKR
This scene mAde me cry
I feel like Jonas when I listen to this. Its just, I have heard music before, unlike him.. But never any music like this. The song is just so beautiful. By the way, if anyone knows, why wrote the song?
This made me have a new perspective on life, this movie is a hidden gem and so is the book
My second favorite scene from all time I love this movie it means so much.
What would your first be?
What's ur first?
I’m obsessed with this scene because one, I love the music so much, two, I love how he is playing the piano as he is talking, it is just such a great scene
Can't get enough of this wcene
This is literally my favorite scene from the movie. It made me cry 😂
I don't have words to describe what I feel. Such an excellent scene.
I like how the giver says I'm not very good even though I had a very good teacher... That holds true with many things, a person who is very good at something got that way because of the person mentoring them and that person recognized something in you that you didnt know you had and pushed you to be better than them, even though you will never think you are, the world needs more of those people
I love this scene, every time I here it, tears come rolling down my eyes 💙 very inspiring of what he says about music really touches my heart💞
This scene is so perfect
This song so many emotions sadnesses happiness loneliness together all these emotions come to me when I hear this song and thx for making this beautiful song
This scene is so beautiful, I can’t ever imagine my own life without music
0:28 LMAOOO jonas sees the piano with the top up and is like "Table? ... but all the food would slide off 😦" comedy
You know a good song when it can make you smile, bring a tear to your eye, inspire you and just leave a whole mess of emotions inside you. This is one of those few songs that are like that (for me Atleast) from the first A to the final note. I'm currently learning it myself. A beautiful piece, this is.

This movie makes me realise how beautiful life is
Jeff Bridges is a terrific actor loved him in iron man
I absolutely love this scene
i cry everytime i watch this scene
I remember the day I went to the movies to watch The Giver. Still get chills. I just love this movie so much.
My favorite scene in the movie. :)
This a beautiful way to capture the emotions of discovering music the first time
I remember I read and saw the giver (book and movie) when I was in 5th grade now I'm in 7th grade so close go high school , proud I got that far, and I learned to play piano at near the beginning of this new year in 7th grade , I'm still learning since I don't know how to read sheet music that well yet , but I do know a couple of songs , so because I was playing my piano I just started playing random notes because I was bored and I wanted to see if someday I could make my own music with the piano , then I play the notes A , C, E in a specific pattern and it sounded so familiar, I stressed myself to remember were it came from, than I remembered this wonder story and the music , I quickly type in my tablet tutorials for this song and now I'm learning this beautiful piece with such great meaning , I decided I want to see this movie again I want to read the book again it's was just to good to be read/saw only once ,
So now I'm here
2 years later and since I was in 5th grade I dreamed of someday playing this piece and that "someday" in today and tomorrow and beyond
One of my fav parts! I love the theme! It's sooo beautiful!
i cried in this part when i saw it
I swear this scene always gives me goosebumps!
the notes in 1:10 make me ughhh so beautiful 😫
This movie is so powerful and sets me in a state of peace and makes me feel deep about life amen
Love this part of the movie
Amazing how much music can provide such an outlet... music provides life with growth, heart, and positive energy, no matter what its about, listening to this song whils hes narrating, explaining how music has affected his life.... without my music, listening and playing, i dont know where i would be. im sure most can relate. use music as a life tool
All comments are from so long ago! I read the book at school and then watched the movie. It's so beautiful and really fitting for the theme ;)
I saw this when I was seven and at this moment, with all of what they had built up, I realized that life isn't all fun and games. This song made me feel things that I feel no where else. Now that I have a better understanding of the message that it was conveying, it hits hard. And even today, six years later, I still associate this song with everything that I feel. I also get very cuddly affectionate and tear up when I hear it.
Anytime anyone needs an extra for a scene like that, COUNT ME IN!!!!
this music is soo good I love it,it's something deep inside that wants to watch this over and over
Music starts at 0:49
Thank u I was replaying this at like 1:03
I watched a part of this movie at my school, and then I watched it till the end at home. I loved it soooo muchhhh. Now this is one of my favorites movies, everyone should watch it.
Wth I feel happy and sad at the same time ;-;
On the other side I wanna cry...
But on another side im feeling really happy ;-;
eMoTiOnS
finally remembered the title of this book after 5 years, I remember watching this movie in class man this piano is beautiful
I actually got a piano ad before this vid lmao
The piano tune always makes me feel like I’m listening to music for the first time, it’s so good.
“I thought those injections were for our health”
Aye

I watched this movie a long time ago, recently we saw this movie in school and it’s still as good as I remembered.
Something that stands out in this movie is the music, damn it’s good
when i first watched this movie, it was in class, after we had read the book and when the scene came i started balling my eyes from the music and my classmates thought there was
something wrong with me 😂
There is something "wrong" with you, compared to your stoic classmates, you have a soul.🌟
This scene was beautifully done
4 years later it’s still beautiful
This is probably my favorite scene from the movie. So much depth in it. Overall the movie is amazing, i'm so annoyed that Divergent overshadowed it, this was supposed to be the futuristic dystopia YA movie for everyone to talk about
