I first saw them Live in ATL when they opened for Jon Bellion and let me tell you, they went from "who are they" to "I need to know who they are now" They are so amazing.
Welcome to the Lawrence obsession! They're incredible, and really starting their rise for sure! Couple of late night performances over the past year and they're currently opening for the Jonas Brothers on tour. TONS of new fans incoming!
They are a brother sister duo (Clyde and Gracie Lawrence) + 6 piece band from new York. The chorus isn't actually part of the band. Their new song I'm confident that I'm insecure has another acoustic-ish recording and is crazy
They are insane live too. that to me is the mark of a great band/singer. Another great Acoustic of theirs is The Weather. It shows off a different part of her voice too. Add that to this song and you can really see Gracie's and the band's talent. I suggest you check that one out too. Great reaction - thanks!
Wow. That was amazing. ❤❤❤ Edit- I had my evening viewing all queued up- I just spent the last 2 hours listening to Lawrence and reactions instead. I'll say WOW again! More please. 🙏💛
It was the "Bro, like..." *walks away from the desk* moment that made it for me. That's how I feel when I listen to them online and in person. If you haven't listened to the acoustic-ish version of "I'm Confident That I'm Insecure", I suggest listening to that next. It's the best of the best - lead vocals, arrangement, instrumentals, background vocals, and cheek.
I realize your video is from a year ago ... I've been a fan of Lawrence for a few years, and The Algorithm™ sends me reaction videos from people I don't follow. It's fun to see you all react to music I love. I hope all of this round and round will help Lawrence. I think they'll be OK.
@@mcflyjp you didn't even mention Clyde's unsurpassed keyboard skills! And you said you thought Gracie may not care how she looks. Their other videos show that both she and Clyde dress with senses of humor and energy. If you are not watching ALL of their videos, you are wasting your time on lesser things.
I'm so glad I watched your reaction to this. The first time I heard this song(which was like 2 days ago) I had a lot of similar feelings to what you were describing. I dont know music the same way so I couldnt put it into words but everything you said I was like yeah thats exactly what I was feeling! Great reaction.
Seeing her in a few lives she does strain on this one BUT, its because of what you noticed i think. Not seperate. She gets so into it she just THROWS it
@@mcflyjp - Assuming you mean "i'm confident that i'm insecure", there's both a music video and a live/acoustic version. :) Both wonderful. Live/acoustic is the explosive-sock-removal version.
god yes i love watching people experience lawrence for the first time. if you want to get more into their music, you should totally check out I'm Confident That I'm Insecure (Acoustic-ish) or The Weather (Acoustic/Gospel) for more of that gospel vibe, and Freckles (Acoustic) or The Heartburn Song (Live at Webster Hall) have awesome horns sections! no pressure to react to the vids i promise lol, but you should definitely listen to more of their music either way if you liked Don't Lose Sight! they're just such an incredible band and i love seeing them get the hype they deserve
There's talent where your like wow & there's crazy and then there's talent where your like... Aliens exist Bro! Thats; what I thought too. WTF?!?! In 2023?? WOWZA!!
@@mcflyjp first thing you said, you said it real fast and i was half concentrating ... "members of the flat music society, welcome back..." ... i was like "wait, what?!" *left arrow key* haha
@@mcflyjp it was a simple observation of something that was glaring to me. I’m glad that the plug in you use to feather a blur has been fixed though! Are you looking for validation/praise on something specific?
@@mcflyjp yeh not the same thing I know just the set up made me think of fame.. Talented people hanging out fusing together to make music and entertainment.. Didn't mean it in a bad way 😉 just reminded of youth.. I'm getting old 😂
Every single gospel singer sounds like her? Absolutely false. In fact, I'd go as so far to say that there's maybe 1% of gospel rehearsals that sound like the backup singers. That's not even including her. She's on another level.
@@mcflyjp can you read? I clearly said 'most' choir rehearsals, and of the 20k choir rehearsals I've gone to and played for during my lifetime at least 60 percent of them can cook like this or better. Their little brother is not even a great singer. Lawrence is crazy good and Gracie is an amazing talent but that same voice is in 80% of Baptist Churches every single Sunday morning.
@@billydwashington5469 "that same voice" . Let's take a step back because you seem to think you know who I am and my history with music. I agree about their little brother. Now that that's outta the way, I also was in choir, did you know that? In a few different cities for almost a decade. While I've seen very very good singers (amazing actually) I have never seen a talent like Gracie's. You can say that you've seen immense talent in your lifetime and still agree that Gracie is a once in a lifetime talent. And I never disputed the "choir rehearsals being just like this". There was never an argument there. I just haven't seen it on the mainstage and done so well like this, again, on the main stage.
I have no idea who you are or where your experiences have taken you. My comment was not anti-Lawrence, it was made based on what they're doing in this song, how long I've been exposed to this chord movement and who I've heard push those progressions vocally. This is a hit pop song in the street, but a regular Sunday morning at most churches.
I first saw them Live in ATL when they opened for Jon Bellion and let me tell you, they went from "who are they" to "I need to know who they are now" They are so amazing.
They are incredible. I saw this and immediately knew I was watching greatness.
So jealous you got to see them live!
Welcome to the Lawrence obsession! They're incredible, and really starting their rise for sure! Couple of late night performances over the past year and they're currently opening for the Jonas Brothers on tour. TONS of new fans incoming!
They deserve all of that
Yep, word is their conversion rate from the Jonas Tour is finally blowing them up...where they belong @@mcflyjp
They are a brother sister duo (Clyde and Gracie Lawrence) + 6 piece band from new York. The chorus isn't actually part of the band. Their new song I'm confident that I'm insecure has another acoustic-ish recording and is crazy
I saw the video pop up and I'm ready to watch it. Can't wait
loved this reaction - every so often i check for new reactions to this performance because i love it so much and really dug your thoughts
Thanks! They have surprised me in a time where it's hard to be surprised by artists anymore because ethe talent is lackluster!
I'm really glad you loved it so much. :D They are one of the most amazing groups, well, maybe ever.
That's hard. But they are definitely up there.
Clyde Lawrence wrote the theme song for Miss Congeniality...when he was 5. Their dad is the director.
Thats absolutely wild!
Writer not director*
They are insane live too. that to me is the mark of a great band/singer. Another great Acoustic of theirs is The Weather. It shows off a different part of her voice too. Add that to this song and you can really see Gracie's and the band's talent. I suggest you check that one out too. Great reaction - thanks!
I am going to go down their discography as I need to see more;
Well, this lifted my mood! ❤ Thanks for this one.
Such a happy vibe song!
I actually just heard this band a couple of days ago, a different song though. They are absolutely amazing! ❤
They are incredible. Underrated for their skill.
Lawrence are so good , they give me goosebumps too everytime on this track and the last one "I'm confident that i'm insecure", check it :)
Yeah that one is definitely going to be next. Everyone is so talented d
Wow. That was amazing. ❤❤❤
Edit- I had my evening viewing all queued up- I just spent the last 2 hours listening to Lawrence and reactions instead. I'll say WOW again! More please. 🙏💛
Glad you enjoyed. I'll be doing more of them very very soon.
I’m really glad I clicked on this video! That was a beautiful performance
I'm glad you did too! Everyone needs Lawrence in their lives!
Whoa. I’m with you on the speechless. She’s a force.
I appreciated the analysis- time to revisit on my own.
She's one of the better if not best singers I've ever seen.
I did look up their history as this is beyond a gift. There was school and support. That does not negate raw talent, but it sure does help.
It was the "Bro, like..." *walks away from the desk* moment that made it for me. That's how I feel when I listen to them online and in person.
If you haven't listened to the acoustic-ish version of "I'm Confident That I'm Insecure", I suggest listening to that next. It's the best of the best - lead vocals, arrangement, instrumentals, background vocals, and cheek.
Should be in the same playlist as this one. But yeah. They are unbelievable.
you need to watch their acoustic-ish version of their new song, im confident that i'm insecure, its a similar vibe and they go crazy
Definitely going to be doing that one next.
I realize your video is from a year ago ...

Hope you liked enough to subscribe.
Gracie's voice has captivated me and Clyde's writing skills are truly amazing.

@@tomreingold4024 I have limited time as it is with a full time job, and 3 kids. I think I’m doing just fine.
Good vibes *are* infectious ❤️
Always!
I'm so glad I watched your reaction to this. The first time I heard this song(which was like 2 days ago) I had a lot of similar feelings to what you were describing. I dont know music the same way so I couldnt put it into words but everything you said I was like yeah thats exactly what I was feeling! Great reaction.
Glad I could be your voice 😁.
But yes the talent on display here is crazy.
just discovered them and i'm ALL IN
Amazing group!
Seeing her in a few lives she does strain on this one BUT, its because of what you noticed i think. Not seperate. She gets so into it she just THROWS it
I mean, I’ve seen early videos of them and she hasn’t always been this good. She’s been honing her craft and that’s amazing
Love that you thougt about Lil Dicky when you aw him! I felt the same. Really hope Lawrence and Lil Dicky will colab in the future!
That would be sick actually. I want to see that
Great reaction. I highly recommend the other Lawrence acoustic videos. They're all great.
Also, patreon typo in the bottom right of your video.
100% agree. Their music videos and stuff are all wonderful, but the live/acoustic ones are utterly mind-blowing.
Yeah someone pointed out the typo. I am just gonna leave it lol.
Also the newest one I want to hear. It's a live acoustic also right?
@@mcflyjp - Assuming you mean "i'm confident that i'm insecure", there's both a music video and a live/acoustic version. :) Both wonderful. Live/acoustic is the explosive-sock-removal version.
Omg Rx Bandits albums in the background!! 🤘🏻
A man of culture! One of my favorite bands.
@@mcflyjpsame here
All my fellow gen-x peers ain’t feeling it. I fucking love everything they do.
How can you not? That doesn't compute for me.
god yes i love watching people experience lawrence for the first time. if you want to get more into their music, you should totally check out I'm Confident That I'm Insecure (Acoustic-ish) or The Weather (Acoustic/Gospel) for more of that gospel vibe, and Freckles (Acoustic) or The Heartburn Song (Live at Webster Hall) have awesome horns sections! no pressure to react to the vids i promise lol, but you should definitely listen to more of their music either way if you liked Don't Lose Sight! they're just such an incredible band and i love seeing them get the hype they deserve
Amazing talent all around. Pretty incredible.
Highly recommend watching their jam in the van performance it will blow you away
I saw the recommendation for that one and it has horns! Definitely want to take a look at that.
their band usually has horns, actually! it’s an 8 piece band with a full horn section-their live performances fucking rock
Wow!
Amazing and underrated group.
Rick Beato giving his seal on a song about the shitty part of the music industry. Gold
That’s the most Beato thing Beato has ever Beatoed
There's talent where your like wow & there's crazy and then there's talent where your like... Aliens exist Bro!
Thats; what I thought too. WTF?!?! In 2023?? WOWZA!!
Yeah This bands talent definitely caught me off guard for sure.
WOW
They are amazing!
If you like soul funk, the full version of this and other songs have brass arrangements. Also check out Mingo Fishtrap if you like James Brown.
I'm always down for something with horns.
Check out "The Weather" acoustic version... they'll move you once more.
These acoustic versions have me feeling a certain type of way.
Yay Steven! 🎉
ph, but thanks ;)
@@StephenJacob apologies, my friend! 😁
Gracie Lawrence is a freak of nature. Clyde ain't half bad, too :)
She's one of a kind!
new to the channel and had to skip back the first few seconds ... misheard and thought the algorithm was feeding me flat earth content :P
Hahaha. What did I say?
@@mcflyjp first thing you said, you said it real fast and i was half concentrating ... "members of the flat music society, welcome back..." ... i was like "wait, what?!" *left arrow key* haha
@@parsonage123456789 😂
Aren't you going to react to Im confident that I'm insecure by Lawrence?
Or did you? I didn't see it on your channel
I have not yet. But thank you for the reminder! I will be doing that shortly.
Clyde's voice is underrated IMO
Oh 100% dude can sing so well.
Why are the sides of this video blurred and not feathered?
OBS plugin to do a blur effect. But the plugin was broken. Since been fixed.
Glad to see that's all you noticed. You know not anything else I did.
@@mcflyjp it was a simple observation of something that was glaring to me. I’m glad that the plug in you use to feather a blur has been fixed though!
Are you looking for validation/praise on something specific?
@@ItsMeGreg101 not at all
If you like this, and you like to be speechless - listen/watch Jacob Collier.
I'll have to check him out.
Gives me Fame and Glee vibes.. 🤔
Glee? Glee was show number. This is soul and gospel. But I get the comparison a bit. The talent took me by surprise.
@@mcflyjp yeh not the same thing I know just the set up made me think of fame.. Talented people hanging out fusing together to make music and entertainment.. Didn't mean it in a bad way 😉 just reminded of youth.. I'm getting old 😂

🤦🏽
fix your patreon link....it says paRtreon
Too late for that. Not reuploading now.
i cant watch this guy cause he stops the video to many times. i appreciate what he has to say but just listen then speak .
It’s funny how you guys go crazy over what most choir rehearsals in the history of gospel music sounds like.
Every single gospel singer sounds like her? Absolutely false. In fact, I'd go as so far to say that there's maybe 1% of gospel rehearsals that sound like the backup singers. That's not even including her. She's on another level.
