From what I understand they did this music video during the time covid was around in 2020. They treked to the mountains to make this and there is a BTS (Behind the scenes) for this video.
That's how talented,Queen Morissette is! She's a Phenomenal Talented Artist, Talented in the sense that she can sing any and all genre, all types of song and she will nsiled them all.Bro in her playlist you can watch different genre she performed She's a Master-Class Genius Vocalist thats why she's up beyond all great artist in the,world today.💯%❣️❣️❣️
To pronounce it correctly the word USAHAY is like this "OH ZA HAI" which means SOMETIMES or FREQUENTLY thanks for featuring our amazing filipina talent MORI in you Chanel sir.
Morrisette grew up in Cebu, another island province of the Philippines, where the native language is Bisaya or Visaya. It is somewhat related to the languages spoken in several Pacific areas, including Hawaii. As most children in Cebu, she was educated primarily in American English, but when she moved to Manila at the age of 14 to pursue her music professionally, she had to learn Tagalog, not only to communicate, but to sing Tagalog songs. Like many in Manila she speaks Taglish, which is a mashup of Tagalog (or Filipino) and English. She thinks in English, but daily she probably speaks mostly in Tagalog, or Taglish.
The 2nd song Usahay, was written in the 60’s if I’m not mistaken. To my knowledge, it was not from a movie. Can’t wait for you to see Mori do her Broadway tunes and then to her Disney stuff too.
1961 is what Google tells me. Definitely a good choice for a mashup with an oldie like Moon River. Morissette just released a cover of Ang Huling El Bimbo yesterday and it is No 1 on Filipino ITunes I guess as it has those whose youth was in the 1990s getting nostalgic.
This is like a "West meets East" music concept. "Moon River" is a Mancini work, made an OST for the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn, while "Usahay" (Ooh-sa-high) ("Sometimes" in English) is an old romantic song in Cebuano language. Morissette was born and raised in Cebu, so that's her mother tongue. We can assume she has been listening to (and perhaps singing) this song since her younger years. What a nice arrangement to mash them up together in an "old-style" 50's or 60's music and accompaniments. I hope you also appreciate the beauty of vocal layering that they did as BGV's, Mori and her husband Dave. It gives me some "winter-y" feelings of the years gone by. 🥰 They included some behind-the-scenes in this video. She was talking to Dave in "Taglish" (a mixed of Tagalog and English), that's how we usually do in daily conversations, especially that Dave is half-American, half-Filipino. The vehicle that "interrupted" their video shoot is what we call a "tricycle", basically a motorcycle with an attached side car, a basic mode of transportation in provinces and rural areas in the Philippines. From these BTS, we can see what Mori is when she's not singing and performing, she's just a simple, friendly, down-to-earth lady with a bubbly personality. 🥰
UOO -SA-HAY.....did this during the lockdown....like you'll discover she did many with hubby Dave Lamar behind the camera. USAHAY is in her natural dialect, Bisaya. LOL....She does sing, constantly....to her plants...to Dave...to herself. If you like strings.....check out Love You Still ( sunset version ) digital message to her estranged father. Its an origianal.
@@wilfredoaying930I am referring to his comment during the outtakes where Mori and her husband were conversing in a mix of Tagalog and English. He was asking if she was speaking English specifically for the filming and I was letting him know people speak in Taglish naturally.
@@wilfredoaying930 being Filipino, speaking in Taglish is very natural for me. It's not until Im in America it was brought to my attention that non Filipinos wonder how and why we do it because to them it's not normal! 🤣
@@mariateresagalito7053 unfortunately, when I came here in 1983 Ontario Canada.didn’t hear anything like English/ Tagalog. Not until later when I move to Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
Ohh no you didn’t lol 🇨🇦Okay USAHAY is a Visaya classic song is what grandmother or grandfather sings to their children and go on to a generation 💯And it happens to be MORISSETTE first language, second is English and Tagalog is her third language growing up in Cebu City Philippines 💯Moonriver mashup Usahay are equally beautiful classic songs.thank Zack Such a beautiful reaction. Morissette is just extraordinary talented vocalist 🤩
Amazing, Zack, thank you! Love that you watched this all the way through! (And yes, this is the right video 😃) USAHAY is pronounced /ooh-sah-haɪ/. One basic trick to correctly pronounce Filipino (Tagalog) words is to learn how vowels are pronounced. Each vowel is only pronounced one way, and each one enunciated even when the same vowel is written twice side by side. Always. A - ah (as in Aha!) E - eh (as in egg) I - ee (as in Lee) O - aww (as in awe) U - ooh (as in boohoo 😅) Simple, right? 🤭
Philippines and most of Pacific including Hawaii is part of the greater Austronesian languages group. It should be a race on it's own, if it hasn't been reclassified already. I read that her 1st. Language is English but I personally believe that Cebuano/Bisaya, English then Tagalog/Filipino. In that order.
Usahay is not tagalog but cebuano (her native language) fiy philippines has 170+ languages Cebuano is her first language second is english and tagalog is third 13:30 we called it TRICYCLE motorcycle with sidecar (it is use for transportation) If you want to ride it just wave your hand or just say Tricyccllleeeeee!
Zack, have you already watched Katrina Velarde? Another amazing Filipina singer. If not yet, try her cover of Go the Distance at the Wishbus as an intro. Cool reaction you have here.

I love old songs because of my late parents and Mori made this even more beautiful.❤
I read Usahay often was sung as a lullaby in the part of the Philippines Morissette is from..
That is called Tag-lish. A mixtures of Tagalog and English! This is common here in the Philippines!
Nice,my generation
Omg!😍❤️😍 It's my request! Thank you 😍😍😍
Morissette is a vocal assassin and a generational artist. Thank you for supporting her!
These classics are always that sweeter when mori covers them.she just has the ability to reinvent a classic and bring it up to date. 👑💯

My queen Morissette 👸 as always we love her so much😊 thank you for supporting our dear Mori❤❤❤
Totally agree with you, Zack. If I would marry someone of her talent, I'll do the same. Annoyingly good! Lol.
Morissette 🔥🔥🔥
She speaks English, Tagalog (our national language), Bisaya or Cebuano ( Her local language).
New sub.here..coz of Mori❤😊

The island thing maybe a bit right since visayas where the song originated is composed of multiple islands

Please song duet moressitte and daryl.
Tittle you are the reason
It's very common to mix Tagalog/English together and even switch mid sentence.
But this time is Sugbo- means Cebuanos = Visaya / English ……not Tagalog/ English

English bruh is our second language. We used it even if we talk to our fellow Filipino people that we called Taglish or mix tagalog and English.
It's a Cebuano (One of the Filipino dialects) lullaby

Bisaya (cebuano)
she speaks 3 languages, english, tagalog, cebuano/bisaya
Usahay means in English sometimes
It's called a tricycle here
She speaks more of English.
Usahay is not tagalog but cebuano (her native language) fiy philippines has 170+ languages
Cebuano is her first language second is english and tagalog is third
13:30 we called it TRICYCLE
motorcycle with sidecar (it is use for transportation)
If you want to ride it just wave your hand or just say Tricyccllleeeeee!
Zack, have you already watched Katrina Velarde? Another amazing Filipina singer. If not yet, try her cover of Go the Distance at the Wishbus as an intro. Cool reaction you have here.
Not yet!
Why “I have to this” word covering the singer? Can’t connect with the song and the singer because of that word!

Her first language is english, then bisaya, then tagalog.
In the Philippines they have the habit of speaking a mixture of Tagalog and English
