Ofc, rapping isn't what most people think it is. Listen to some of the poets of the rap game. Macklemore has my respect but theres so many rappers mainly from back in the day and some from now too who spit that real shit.
"Kids are walking down the hallway plagued by pain in their heart. A world so hateful some would rather die than be who they are" damn. Out of this whole song, those lyrics hit me the hardest. Stay alive |-/
Im not either, as a mather of fact seeing 2 guys kissing makes want to vomit, that being said as long as im not watching I completely support whatever people want to do in matters of sexual preference
you know why? because the daughters see the concert through their phone displays whereas the moms actually live in the moment and enjoy what's happening.
yeah...a lot of people instead doing some pictures or one clip that they can show to their friends, just stand and record 3/4 of the concert instead watching it. And they wont even watch the stuff they record later on :)
It's very sad that when you see a joyful person enjoying the music fully you immediately assume that they can only be drunk :( says a lot about you and everyone who liked this comment. Those moms are actually just open to feel the song and they live fully, not hiding themselves like apparently a lot of people do, who need alcohol to "loosen up" :(
You should check out NF! He is an amazing lyricist as well that makes you think and if you don't like one of his songs for some reason please give him another chance! He does all types of music 😁
Man the emotion of this version is deep. So many people singing the song because they love the way it sounds, but remember the lyrics. It's about people not being accepted by some stupid mentality of people who just don't understand and want to understand that we are all beautiful and different people. We are individual people, but we are one human race.
hi I am getting married to my girlfriend on October 8th 2016 this song is going to be our first dance and the song that's going to be playing when my true love walks down the aisle!!!!!!!!!
+Maranda House I couldn't deal with it if I was a guest, Purely because this song hits me right in the heart and makes me cry like a baby lol. I bet you will both look absolutely amazing! Congratulations! ♥♥♥♥
This always makes me cry my uncle and his husband played this version at their wedding and I hope to play it at me and my wife's someday. No matter how much I hear it I cry and get goosebumps.
this was such a beautiful performance not only because both ed and macklemore are intense and profound performers but because of the crowd's reaction. there were tears and smiles and singing and it's simply amazing to see a mainstream song about gay rights make an impact this big and beautiful. go ed, go mac.
This has me in tears, I don’t preach that I’m gay but all my friends and family know and are so accepting and I’m so grateful for them all. BUT I know so many people have it different and haven’t been lucky like me and it deeply saddens me to know that acceptance isn’t everywhere and I really wish one day we can just be equal let people be. Just let them be. I really hope if anyone is going through a tough time knows that someone is always going through the same thing and there is A LOT of people out there that will love you for who you are so never give up on who you are and be true to yourself no matter what. ❤️
I can't express how much this song means to me. I'm afraid to show who I actually am - sexuality, personality, all else - to even the people closest to me. Then I come to music, and songs like *these* play and I'm reminded why I'm still holding on.
This man has the most class of any artist today, always brilliant and always inspiring. I wish more artists would follow his lead and rise above stereotypes.
My mans Ed was 23 here. 23 yall, on a big stage singing his heart out with thousands of people singing with him. Like.. im 23, and look at me... Cryin on sundays. :I
thats such a loaded lyric. when he says amaerica has somehow forgotten but we paraphrase a book written 3500 years ago. thats probs my fave lyric in the whole song.
I don't understand why people would prefer a gay singer. The song is about same love. The point is, anyone should be able to sing this song and the love they share with someone be just as beautiful and important as anyone elses. I think having a straight person being able to relate to this song shows far more progression then simply sticking someone up there just because they are gay.
Ed Sheeran's understanding of the basic simplicity of music. it did not matter what the other guy was playing. Sheeran' simple rhythm and charm keeps going. Mastery of the art right there
how have I only just seen this 😭 it is my new favourite thing. I have LOVED macklemore since he was really small and now that Ed sheeran is big this is everything 😍
I am a 70 year old gay man and this is so great to hear and see. Sure wish things were like this when I was 18.
John Hiram You just inspired me so much.
Gandalf?
lol
Hannah Smith Why he inspired you so much? (sorry for my bad english i'm french ^^ )
TheHazeShadow I admire both these artists. Finally we have change.
NO FREEDOM TILL WE'RE EQUAL , DAMN RIGHT I SUPPORT IT.
I support it too!
me to
Yvette Alarcon
yeh boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Yvette Alarcon everyone in America has dual rights so we good
Can I just say, Macklemore isn't a rapper or a singer, he's a fucking preacher.
True dat
TRUE
Dude........
Ofc, rapping isn't what most people think it is. Listen to some of the poets of the rap game. Macklemore has my respect but theres so many rappers mainly from back in the day and some from now too who spit that real shit.
Very much deep..

two of the coolest gingers
+Turmoil yeah lol he's blonde not ginger haha lolz
MACKLEMORE IS BLONDE
Stop using that word I don't think it means what you think it means.
The only ones that have souls
@@jillianj27 literallyyyyy
I like that Macklemore supports the LGBT community. I feel like we get so much hate from other rappers because hating gay people is 'cool'
There is nothing cool about hating gay people. Those who hate them are just posers pretending to be cool.
I know they're assholes. Honestly I think that rap should be poetic and inspiring. Nothing nice about homophobia or racism.
agree
Im not either, as a mather of fact seeing 2 guys kissing makes want to vomit, that being said as long as im not watching I completely support whatever people want to do in matters of sexual preference
MrStealYourFrog Vomit? How the fuck is it different if a guy and girl kiss? I bet 2 girls kissing turns you on, but 2 guys kissing makes you vomit...
I love how some mothers are more into it than their daughters :D
it's called alcohol, those moms are drunk af and are getting down
+William Sorensen yuup..someone will be getting some drunk mom action
you know why? because the daughters see the concert through their phone displays whereas the moms actually live in the moment and enjoy what's happening.

That girl on 2:00 took my breath away. GORGEOUS!
And this is a beautiful version of the song! Ed never really disappoints does he? ...
It thought the exact same thing when I saw her. She is beautiful.
That's sexist. You're a sexist!
If considering a girl breathtaking is sexist then YES I AM SEXIST.
Rick Winter bitch
No word to describe this .Just "wow" !
This reminds me so much of Louis and Harry. I support equal rights.
Yass! 👏🙌 Larry thoo (I ship it so hard omg)😍
#larryforever
I ship Larry but I don't like how some people want them to make out I'm just saying support gay marriage 100% and love 1D
Always in my heart Larry Stylinson 💜💜
ItsMinah xoxo ship what? pirate?
00:50 That girl is feeling the music...
Dario Bellamy im screaming
Dario Bellamy She has changed so much for the good.
music went right through her
Guess this is going into my playlist: Songs that get white people turnt
School vibes
Ed's "love is patient love is kind" 😍
As they say, 'Love is patient. Love is kind.'
"America, the brave, still fears what we don't know." That line though. Love is equal
That girl on 2:00 took my breath away. GORGEOUS!
And this is a beautiful version of the song! Ed never really disappoints does he? ...
Coming out is seriously super hard.
Macklemore and Ed Sheeran are two artists that frequently get me to start shaking, and give me chills with their lyrics. This was awesome.
Ohhh-sum profile-pic! I just can't get the name, the flash!?!
You should check out NF! He is an amazing lyricist as well that makes you think and if you don't like one of his songs for some reason please give him another chance! He does all types of music 😁
@@catherineb0528 FACTS. REAL MUSIC TILL THE DAY WE DIE
Girl at :53 was really feeling it 😂😭😭
LMFAO SHE PULLED A NAPOLEON DYNAMITE

+Ashiebleu You are a god 😂
At least she has heart :PP
+Jasmine Velasquez Sorry fam but its :52
One of the most beautiful songs ever ♥
Man that put me in tears your awsomecso cool thumbs up
💕
Just the pure emotion that Macklemore has doing this really shows how strongly he feels about this and I love it
I'd marry both of them. Just because they're one of worlds greatest musicians.
And because they charismatic magnificent sweet and their presence makes our heart skips a beat :3
Why would u marry them just cuz there a famous singer and rich??? Like i wait to marry a girl but i mean i wouldn't look for a famous rich singer
Love is patient, love is kind.
NO FREEDOM TILL WE'RE EQUAL , DAMN RIGHT I SUPPORT IT.
Ed Sheeran never really dissapoints anybody
Straight man here. All my love to my LBGTQ brothers and sisters. ❤️❤️
Ed Sheeran and Macklemore? Awesome version of same love!
I ship it

How sick are you
Alina Piccirilli and how boring are you
Ed Sheeran is the guy every artist wants to play with b/c he is the 1 man band!
Happy Pride Month! 🎉🎈🎊
🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
Today's two singers with actual talent. I love them both very much
This is so powerful this song. To all the gay and bisexual people and their allies. People should be free to love whoever they want to love
I CANT GET OVER HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS PERFORMANCE WAS
Man the emotion of this version is deep. So many people singing the song because they love the way it sounds, but remember the lyrics. It's about people not being accepted by some stupid mentality of people who just don't understand and want to understand that we are all beautiful and different people. We are individual people, but we are one human race.
the line " a certificate on paper isn't going to solve it all but it's a damn good place to start" always gets me right in the feels
I read this and he sang it at the same time lmao
hi I am getting married to my girlfriend on October 8th 2016 this song is going to be our first dance and the song that's going to be playing when my true love walks down the aisle!!!!!!!!!
that's cute, I wish you the best~
thank you!!!!
+Maranda House I couldn't deal with it if I was a guest, Purely because this song hits me right in the heart and makes me cry like a baby lol. I bet you will both look absolutely amazing! Congratulations! ♥♥♥♥
hi and thank you I hope I don't start crying like a baby when she comes down the aisle!!
Maranda House Oh you will lmao. I did when I got married in January! If you can't cry at your wedding, When can you!? :)
#LoveWins
This always makes me cry my uncle and his husband played this version at their wedding and I hope to play it at me and my wife's someday. No matter how much I hear it I cry and get goosebumps.
Wishing you all happiness always!!!
Ed Sheeran is an angel :')
two upstanding musicians advancing the world one track at a time, tackling hard subjects and paving the way for a better tomorrow. i love it

He has such a soothing, natural voice. He doesn't try to force it out at all, and that's really impressive
so nice that Tommy Pickles and Chucky Finster stayed friends for so long
😂😂😂
+Shannon Ryan LMAO! This is great.
I actually lol'd at this comment 😂😂
girl that is the best because it's SO true you won the internet 2015!
+Amelia W me too cause it's so on accurate
I just get chills every time I see the reaction of the crowd to this song. Such a beautiful performance!
SO the genius of Ed is that he understands the structure of music.... and can build it into a solo with a loop pedal. GENIUS
You'ev gotta wonder sometimes how every single cover Ed does is nothing short of wonderful
Jesus.... loves us ALL.....we all need HIM
They both look so happy performing this song together
I must admit, this is an awesome collab.
I can't express how much this song means to me. I'm afraid to show who I actually am - sexuality, personality, all else - to even the people closest to me. Then I come to music, and songs like *these* play and I'm reminded why I'm still holding on.
I think my heart just cried. As if I didn't love Ed Sheeran enough already..
Oh you know just going through all these different collab videos Ed has done with different people...This guys could literally sing ANY song!!
I'd marry both of them. Just because they're one of worlds greatest musicians.
Love is patient, love is kind.
I got goose bumps when macklemore started singing :3
This man has the most class of any artist today, always brilliant and always inspiring. I wish more artists would follow his lead and rise above stereotypes.
this is the most beautiful act of equality and kindness and we need more people like this. equality over everything.
I have to say it's like the church scene with choir singing on Sunday morning~ So loving and peaceful and warm~
Sherman Chang Except here they're singing about gay rights, which you wouldn't hear being sung at a church.
0:54 ....she's really feeling it
My mans Ed was 23 here. 23 yall, on a big stage singing his heart out with thousands of people singing with him. Like.. im 23, and look at me... Cryin on sundays. :I
Lol right I’m just realizing I’m the same age as he was in all these old videos and feelin like a flop
I started crying when ed started singing
This is pure magic, love em both!
THATS WHY WE'RE WAITING (WAITING)
WAITING ON THE WORLD TO CHANGE
nooooooooo. please no. I literally just got that out of my head :P
God I just thought that
I really wish I was there, I like these two artists so much!! Amazing performance!
thats such a loaded lyric. when he says amaerica has somehow forgotten but we paraphrase a book written 3500 years ago. thats probs my fave lyric in the whole song.
I really love this song and adding Ed into the mix takes it to a whole new level of powerful.
Macklemore performs with so much passion!
I don't understand why people would prefer a gay singer. The song is about same love. The point is, anyone should be able to sing this song and the love they share with someone be just as beautiful and important as anyone elses. I think having a straight person being able to relate to this song shows far more progression then simply sticking someone up there just because they are gay.
Ginger Jesus and The Best Rapper Ever. Never clicked so fast!
please don't be scared, the world is grateful for you as you are. the same same warm love. same love mwa
I love Ed Sheeran's guitar :)
This was simply beautiful. I would love to buy this version! (Can we start a petition for a duet between these two?)
Thank you to both these ALLIES!!!
Oh my gosh!! My two favorite gingers!! I love you both Ben & Ed!!!
This is all my dreams coming true at once: ed sheeran, Macklemore, equality and LGBT rights. This song restores my faith in humanity 🏳️🌈❤️
🏳️🌈
It would be awesome if they recorded a song together. Can you imagine how perfect that would be?? :3
Playing this song at my pride party💖💜💙
Ed Sheeran's understanding of the basic simplicity of music. it did not matter what the other guy was playing. Sheeran' simple rhythm and charm keeps going. Mastery of the art right there
This is just beautiful....... I'm not crying its you know..... Just.... I got something in my eye......
When a crowd of over 1,000 people is quieter than your lunch room
He was only 23 here. Crazy how much he has accomplished before the age of 30.
good to see the next generation of irish entertainers collaborating
I cant wait to have a real christmas with my Dads!
This song never gets old, so beautiful
I love how he just comes in jumps around the stage a while when singing then casually walks of stage Ben your adorable
I love this version so much!!!!
This performance always gives me chills 😄
this is just beautiful ❤️
absolutely beautiful
This brought me to tears. SO BEAUTIFUL!
This is perfection😩
The woman at 3:04 was TURNT.
Or she was just enjoying the performance... Not everyone who's appears to be having a good time needs to be drunk bro.
+LUKAZ G turnt doesn't always mean drunk, bro.
+LUKAZ G Who said anything about booze?
oh my goodness i laughed so freaking hard at this
+carlos williams 2:59
This was beautiful
Damn two musicians who actually give me hope for future music
This is the most beautiful version of this song I've never heard !
Goosebumps, goosebump all over the place!
I didn't know I needed this til it ended up on my recommended. My two favorite artists.
BEAUTIFULLLL and when they looked at each other when they finished singing so cute

Fave song with my fave artist in it. One word: PERFECTION
Blown away. ❤
