Just as an FYI: Maui is an actual mythological character who is attributed with all of the things that The Rock sings about in that song. Also love Moana, and I strongly recommend watching the entire move... also reviewing Shiny from Moana is a must :D
Fun fact -- Maui's physical design (face included) is heavily based on The Rock's grandfather Peter "the Flying Hawaiian" Maivia, the legendary wrestler/promoter.
Also written by the man, the myth, the legend, Lin Manuel Miranda. I don't know how but that man has a GIFT for not only writing amazing songs but also writing specific songs tailored to the individuals who sing them. That is true talent right there
Yes, this is hands down my favorite song in Moana. Its a great way of introducing Maui and his legend to the viewers that are unfamiliar with the different legends of this Polynesian trickster demigod.
You had me subscribed by the intro. 💪😁👍 Good stuff! Also, connecting him not being able to float and being the Rock, genius. Never thought that. If that's what they were going for, that's great. Along with other "Rock" subtleties.😊
It's so funny how you say that he can do anything. When he told his little girl that that was him playing Maui and started singing with the song, she told him to be quiet he was running the song.
A little bit of trivia for you: While most of the movie was animated digitally, Maui's tattoos were animated by hand. If you haven't watched the whole film by now, I add my voice to those suggesting that you do.
This movie is so fun to watch. You may want to watch it too. When he sings this to his daughter it so sweet. Truly enjoyed watching your reaction to this song.
I have seen that movie, I dont know how many times and somehow missed "The Peoples Eyebrow". Yeah, I'm a fan of The Rock as well. BTW, he also Raps (Face Off T3CH9)
There are two cute behind the scenes videos of Lin & Dwayne recording Your Welcome. Lin guided the pace of the song by bouncing around like an excited kid. He is loving the process and he’s amping up Dwayne. It’s adorable how much fun they had. They became friends and plan to work together again. Dwayne Johnson does a great job singing an Elvis song in an earlier live action Disney film called The Game Plan. Your Welcome recording videos: th-cam.com/video/X5zmGBB9Tag/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/jLK68LcJp0g/w-d-xo.html
Yes, definitely watch the whole move! It’s one of my all time favorites from Disney! Hubby and I have Disney Plus and we don’t even have kids! We like watching both new and classic Disney movies!
The Rock also sang a parody of "what a wonderful world" in the movie Journey 2: The mysterious Island. Really good as well!! Edit: Journey 2 came out in 2012
Dwayne played high school football at McGavock High school in Nashville:) still think it's cute when Dwayne's daughter always wanting to listen to this song and doesnt believe that her dad is Maui lol
Awesome reaction, Brad!! Yes, I remember Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson from WWE Raw and Smackdown. Especially during the Attitude Era. Lots of memorable matches back then. It’s a shame that the storylines are different now than back then in my opinion. Your right, listening to him sing I can see his facial expressions in my mind. Who knows, he might see this and like your video and comment. Now that would be awesome!! IF YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKING!!!
I know other people here have said this already, but this was actually written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, especially if you listen to the rap. Also, if you thought that was good, check out the version with Jordan Fisher and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Your soul will leave your body, I'm telling you!
omg brad im obsessed with the new studio, so proud of that and you! i have a recommendation for you (also a request that you react to this haha) the song meant to be yours from heathers the musical i think that you are gonna love the music and going to freak out with the lyrics hahah xoxo from argentina
I would love it if you could check out some songs from Tangled The Series. (Specifically, Nothing Left To Lose, Crossing the line, Waiting in the Wings, and Let Me Make You Proud). It has some really good singers in it (Jeremy Jordan, Mandy Moore, and Eden Espinosa)
I think that The Rock is the only person who can pull off this level of ego and... big-headedness... from Maui and still have everyone loving him for it. Any other actor would just be unlikable.
Ok, ok, I see what's happening here You're face to face with greatness, and it's strange You don't even know how you feel It's adorable Well, it's nice to see that humans never change Open your eyes, let's begin Yes, it's really me, it's Maui Breathe it in I know it's a lot The hair, the bod When you're staring at a demi-god What can I say except, "You're welcome" For the tides, the sun, the sky Hey, it's okay, it's okay You're welcome I'm just an ordinary demi-guy Hey What has two thumbs and pulled up the sky When you were waddling yea high? This guy When the nights got cold Who stole you fire from down below? You're lookin' at him, yo Oh, also I lassoed the sun You're welcome To stretch your days and bring you fun Also I harnessed the breeze You're welcome To fill your sails and shake your trees So what can I say except you're welcome For the islands I pulled from the sea There's no need to pray, it's okay You're welcome Ha, I guess it's just my way of being me You're welcome You're welcome Well, come to think of it Kid, honestly I could go on and on I could explain every natural phenomenon The tide, the grass, the ground Oh, that was Maui just messing around I killed an eel I buried its guts Sprouted a tree, now you got coconuts What's the lesson? What is the take-away? Don't mess with Maui when he's on a break-away And the tapestry here on my skin Is a map of the victories I win Look where I've been I make everything happen Look at that mean mini-Maui just tickety-tappin' (Ha ha ha ha ha ha, hey) Well, anyway let me say, "You're welcome" (you're welcome) For the wonderful world you know Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome (you're welcome) Well, come to think of it, I gotta go (hey) Hey, it's your day to say, "You're welcome" (you're welcome) 'Cause I'm gonna need that boat I'm sailing away, away, you're welcome (you're welcome) 'Cause Maui can do anything but float You're welcome (You're welcome) You're welcome And thank you
Just as an FYI: Maui is an actual mythological character who is attributed with all of the things that The Rock sings about in that song. Also love Moana, and I strongly recommend watching the entire move... also reviewing Shiny from Moana is a must :D
Maui should be at least large star level in power rankings
Oh absolutely

I LOVE YOU'RE WELCOME, the rock's voice is amazing and Lin-Manuel Miranda never fails to write the best songs.
You know lin wrote this song rite? Genius as always.. lin said "the rock is the only person that can pull off this song.. and get away with it" 🤣🤣
Yes, this is hands down my favorite song in Moana. Its a great way of introducing Maui and his legend to the viewers that are unfamiliar with the different legends of this Polynesian trickster demigod.

Lmao...I got reminded of the SpongeBob episode where he says: "it's not just a boulder...it's a rock!" 🤣 hahaha

A very popular song, more views than "How Far I'll Go", over 1.1B. Only "Let It Go" has more with 2.7B+, that I know of.
Thanks for sharing this video reaction. Nice to share my own with someone else.
Yes, definitely watch the whole move! It’s one of my all time favorites from Disney! Hubby and I have Disney Plus and we don’t even have kids! We like watching both new and classic Disney movies!
he sings this to his daughter and its adorable
Between all the Know Your Roooooooooolls and Can You SmellllellellellellAHs, I’m amazed anyone is surprised this man has a decent singing voice lmao.
FINALLY, the Great One has returned... if you smell-l-l-l-l-l-l what the Rock... is COOKIN!!! ✌️
The Rock also sang a parody of "what a wonderful world" in the movie Journey 2: The mysterious Island. Really good as well!!
Edit: Journey 2 came out in 2012
i was amazed how good a singer he is,
Dwayne played high school football at McGavock High school in Nashville:) still think it's cute when Dwayne's daughter always wanting to listen to this song and doesnt believe that her dad is Maui lol
watch whole movie he was perfect for this character
Gotta admit the song’s catchy
You can tell that Dwayne is having a blast recording that song

Moana songs are so good!!!
3:25 there's actually a video of him singing this in the studio th-cam.com/video/L-DWiPAftbQ/w-d-xo.html
Lin-Manuel listened to his wrestling songs and figured out his range from watching his videos when he wrote this.
OK, no joke you kind of sound like him, I bet with a little bit of work you could have a really solid Rock impression (no pun intended)
I hope you do more from Moana. It has a great soundtrack! Every song is good.
I know other people here have said this already, but this was actually written by Lin-Manuel Miranda, especially if you listen to the rap. Also, if you thought that was good, check out the version with Jordan Fisher and Lin-Manuel Miranda. Your soul will leave your body, I'm telling you!
I loved hearing you talk wrestling! This is a great reaction I LOVE this song so much ❤️
the facct Maui was thrown in the ocean and drowned when he was a kid and *did not float" shows that he is the rock.
omg brad im obsessed with the new studio, so proud of that and you! i have a recommendation for you (also a request that you react to this haha) the song meant to be yours from heathers the musical i think that you are gonna love the music and going to freak out with the lyrics hahah xoxo from argentina

Ok, ok, I see what's happening here
You're face to face with greatness, and it's strange
You don't even know how you feel
It's adorable
Well, it's nice to see that humans never change
Open your eyes, let's begin
Yes, it's really me, it's Maui
Breathe it in
I know it's a lot
The hair, the bod
When you're staring at a demi-god
What can I say except, "You're welcome"
For the tides, the sun, the sky
Hey, it's okay, it's okay
You're welcome
I'm just an ordinary demi-guy
Hey
What has two thumbs and pulled up the sky
When you were waddling yea high?
This guy
When the nights got cold
Who stole you fire from down below?
You're lookin' at him, yo
Oh, also I lassoed the sun
You're welcome
To stretch your days and bring you fun
Also I harnessed the breeze
You're welcome
To fill your sails and shake your trees
So what can I say except you're welcome
For the islands I pulled from the sea
There's no need to pray, it's okay
You're welcome
Ha, I guess it's just my way of being me
You're welcome
You're welcome
Well, come to think of it
Kid, honestly I could go on and on
I could explain every natural phenomenon
The tide, the grass, the ground
Oh, that was Maui just messing around
I killed an eel
I buried its guts
Sprouted a tree, now you got coconuts
What's the lesson?
What is the take-away?
Don't mess with Maui when he's on a break-away
And the tapestry here on my skin
Is a map of the victories I win
Look where I've been
I make everything happen
Look at that mean mini-Maui just tickety-tappin'
(Ha ha ha ha ha ha, hey)
Well, anyway let me say, "You're welcome" (you're welcome)
For the wonderful world you know
Hey, it's okay, it's okay, you're welcome (you're welcome)
Well, come to think of it, I gotta go (hey)
Hey, it's your day to say, "You're welcome" (you're welcome)
'Cause I'm gonna need that boat
I'm sailing away, away, you're welcome (you're welcome)
'Cause Maui can do anything but float
You're welcome
(You're welcome)
You're welcome
And thank you
Great reaction
Please can you react to Voiceplay Moana medley please please please
You ain't gotta call him Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson every time. We all know who "The Rock" is.
Enjoyed your reaction. I’d like to hear your reaction to Voiceplay’s Moana medley.
I think I’ve already seen that one!
Do you even realize that the song was written by Lin Manuel Miranda??? Not the Rock. Miranda is the genius.
So funny! He can do practically everything except swim.
5:23 what was that lol
That's really not that high. Any decent Baritone can hit it.
the german version is better. there, said it, not gonna take it back. German Moana is better too.
