This case is one of the rare instances where corporations and studios set aside their greed and manipulation and genuinely wanted to honor an actor, a man, in good taste.
I think this is just one of the very rare cases where corporate interest happened to align with public interest. I mean, them handling Paul’s death in a tasteful and powerful manner helped catapult the film to $1.5B international sales. Corporations never do anything out of the kindness of their heart; they do things for the profit motive, because that’s the core purpose of a corporation- to profit. And in this case, the conclusion happened to be a positive one
@@basedboi3956 while you are right, like I said the corporations could have sensationalized it. Put him in a fiery car crash in the move to stir up controversy and get people to watch just to criticize & all that.
@@PatrickCc i dont think a fiery car crash would have gone over too well with the general public, especially if too obviously sensationalized. That would piss a lot of people off and cause boycotts. The movie we got was a very safe, profitable conclusion for them (not that it wasnt well done).
Paul Walkers death affected me really hard when it happened.. Celebrities typically don't upset me outside of "Awe shit that sucks" but Fast and Furious was a huge part of my childhood and memories I cherish to this day. Really had a hard time for about a week
@@Vlad2319 She seemed like she was immortal too. I absolutely adore her. Her death, Paul Walker's, and most especially Robin Williams' deaths hurt me the most. It's good that Betty lived a long successful life. I wish it would've been that way for Paul and Robin too though.
I always think about his daughter dealing with such a tragic loss of her father. I hope she's doing okay. Her name is Meadow, and she's been growing into a beautiful, respectful lady and I guarantee Paul Walker is so proud of her. I feel bad she has to deal with that level of grief in life, especially at her young age at the time. Apparently Vin Diesel walked her down the aisle for Paul when she got married a year ago or so. Man, my heart.
Edit I looked it up to double check, yes his youngest daughter. He said all he could think about when he was cutting her cord was that he was there with them! Ughhh my heart! I grew up watching all the movies as well and always adored Paul!
I love the verse: And what’s small turned into a friendship/a friendship turned to a bond/and that bond will never be broken/the love will never get lost Such a powerful song. I never really thought about it so deeply before. Thank you, Patrick.
See You Again became a classic anthem that people use to mourn death in general. Wiz could get his own video to be honest. He is an internet pioneer and really changed all of hip hop.

A family member of mine passed away recently and we’re using that exact same song to dedicate the memory of them. It’s a good song that gets me crying everytime I hear it…
Paul was a great man, his death was extremely tragic and i found see you again to be the perfect song to end this movie and as a send off to paul. Rest In Power Paul
I lost my first long-term boyfriend right before my 21st birthday. We had a really tight-knit group of friends who all attended high school together and remained super close for years. He died the day Fast 7 was released. I remember hearing the song for the first time that day. It really is such a beautiful song and has always resonated so closely with me. Always love your videos, but this one really hit home for me ❤️
That song isn't just the best, it is a piece of art that define the ending of the movie, and jump-start Charlie's career too, what a beautiful music I ever heard
See you again is a song that makes me cry instantly. My dad was obsessed with the movie series, and he two had died doing something he loved. He tragically died in a motorcycle accident. So at his burial the song played. So it just hits different everytime I watch it.
That’s fucking heart wrenching man I know that would make me cry just hearing that makes me sad knowing he even was sad from that and now he too is gone in the same way he was saddened about
I remember watching this movie after his passing , the tension in the movie theater was real... No one could handle when they played "see you again" at the end. That final scene really broke everyone...
The song is so good and powerful. And the fact that it came after Paul's passing just made it hit harder. I honestly didnt expect it to chart so high and even be the most viewed YT vid at a point but damn it was just so hard hitting. I guess i wasnt the only one who liked it so much.
Dear Patrick I am 59. I'm probably the oldest person watching your channel but I love it. I have a 19 yr old son who is an aspiring rap artist so I actually know about most of the people you cover. You are always objective and professional. WELL DONE.
How can you just claim you are the oldest person watching someones channel, Lmao Do you feel cool? Or something? Lmao Big Woop trying to glorify being old and watching YT? Hahaha strange
@@Eggzy-b7fit was a compliment and a very odd thing to be triggered by. Knowing one’s demographic is pretty important for various reasons actually. What a weird thing to comment.
Everyone in this world has lost someone. It resonates with everyone. No matter when or where I hear that song, I'll listen to it from start to finish. Beautiful song. Fitting tribute to a wonderful human being
This song started playing on the radio as my dad was taking me to court so that I could essentially turn myself in. Then, three months into my stay, one day, and guards very rarely do this, a guard started playing that song while he was sitting at his desk, and it f*cking killed me. Like seriously, that day hit me with an emotion that made me regret everything that I was doing even twice as much as I already was.
I was getting my braces tightened on constellation dr in Santa Clarita when this happened. Paul was somewhat of a local hero in our city. They were pulling out of the always evolving shop parking lot and took a loop around constellation (which all of us car guys do out there. It’s our local burn spot.) I’ll never forget hearing the thud of the crash while sitting in the ortho chair, and leaving my appointment to pull up on a Porsche on fire being put out, and ambulances pulling away. I didn’t want to believe it was our hometown hero, but the always evolving team and charity event members made it abundantly clear. Rest In Peace Paul. Cody is filling in your shoes and together with Sean lee is making a huge difference in our community in your honor. That’s all. /end rant
This song was such a masterpiece. I grew up watching the Fast and Furious movies and it made my childhood, it made me into the car guy that I am today. I shared my passion of cars with one of my friends who bought his own car. I always hung out at his place, we drove fast, fucked around, tuned the car. He put his soul in it. I was supposed to save up to buy my own car and we could live our lives working on cars and racing around. We were gonna be an epic street racing duo. Last year in November he sadly decided to end his own life. Now listening to this song just hits harder and harder. I miss you man, you were like a brother to me. It's been a long day without you, my friend...
It’s a melancholic song for sure. Coming up on three years now, my best friend for a good 5 years left. He didn’t die, he just left. I haven’t spoken to him in a year as of writing this, and we’ve totally gone down different paths in life. He didn’t tell me he had left until after he already did, and that next day I just listened to this song all day. It helped me move on, helped me remember all the ‘good times.’ Which I think is this songs best quality, being able to make you remember the happy times
Man I, same as most fans of Paul and the F&F franchise was devastated over his passing. Charlie's song, somehow helped and yet still deepened the pain everyone was enduring during its time... In the end Charlie and Wiz, still helped us embrace and overcome the loss that was Paul Walker. I cannot fathom another musical piece that will impact the whole world the same this song did..
This song was amazing- it came out around the time a good friend of mine passed away and I still cry when I hear it. Shows a lot of skill when you can make a song dedicated to one person that can hold a greater meaning for many people.
Dang. It's so sad that Paul passed away but the good thing is that See You Again was an absolutely good song and a good way for the ending of the movie.
Phenomenal video. It’s hard to watch videos about Paul Walker because he is one of the few when it comes to actors, musicians and etc that meant a lot to me growing up. I just wanted to mention you left out one detail that I think would’ve been good to add. After his passing, his brother took over for his charity to do the wholesome work he was doing and they do car events all the time.
Paul was a big inspiration for me in my teens. I was a big car enthusiast previous to knowing him, but he showed me how to be kind, humble and loving. Trying to make the world a better place. It hit me like a truck when i learned about his passing. Till this day i couldnt bring myself to watch his last movie. Rip friend :)
What really hit me hard when I heard about his death was that he was on his way back home after a charity drive for victims of the typhoon Yolanda here in the Philippines. It made me cry a river especially how I grew up watching Fast and Furious and loving every bit of it… RIP to one of my most respectable artists in Hollywood.
Paul Walker was my favorite actor. I had never "connected" with another actor like that before... Until Paul. And, until the franchise came out, I didn't know anything about cars or the cast, in general, really. However, after watching the first movie, I was hooked - on cars and on Paul, himself. He was so handsome. Those beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair with a touch of curl to it. I loved Paul and, the night that he died, I started bawling my eyes out; as if, I had just lost my best friend. And, in a sense, I still feel like I have - even till this day. He was a great man, friend, father, and actor. God Bless Paul Walker. Until we meet again someday...
They lost it after Fast Five….. should have stopped when Paul died tbh….. but Universal (whoever makes the movie) has the cast contracted for 10 movies and that’s why they’re releasing one every year…. More reasoning for them being ass
Even watching this brings a tear to my eye after all this time. I never knew this man but his death took a toll on me to the point where i love and hate that song. I love that it makes me remember him every time i hear it but i hate the way it makes me feel inside. Still missing u Paul 😢R.I.P
See You Again means so much to my family and I. We played it at my brothers funeral and since then anytime my mom or I hear it we cant help but shed tears.
Don't forget that vin diesel was literally given the Riddick film rights to return to fast and the furious which turned into a giant franchise probably also making him ridiculous money too. Dude made out like a bandit 👌
the story is even more insane when he didnt get riddick for the whole FF franchise. universal signed over the rights to his production company just so vin would do a cameo in Tokyo drift. it wasnt for him to return to the whole franchise which is even more wild. the legit gave him rights to riddick just for a cameo XD.
Patrick I’ve been binge watching your videos and this is definitely one my favorites about Paul Walker, I learned about the F&F franchise and man I nearly teared up at the end.
Paul is the reason I'm into cars today. I can't tell you how many times I've watched the first 3 movies growing up and wanting to BE Brian O'Connor. Witnessing the Fast 7 ending credit had me crying in theaters and to this day. His documentary was a wonderful way to show the world just how incredibly humane he was. You never see a man quite like Paul Walker, especially in Hollywood. Seeing jokes online about his death always has me fuming because of their ignorance of such a great man.
I think I remember reading somewhere that Charlie wrote the song for the label but they wanted to give it to another artist to sing. He gave them an ultimatum that either he sang the vocals for the song or they couldn't have it. Then the film cast and crew also wanted Charlie on it so the studio agreed and the rest is history. I think it's a beautiful song for anyone who has lost someone important in their lives. But I think it would be awkward to play that at a wedding. The song is unmistakably connected to a death.
I get why everyone loves this guy but I still cant look past that he had a girlfriend that was 16 when he was well over his 30 mark.. classic Hollywood if you ask me.
THIS, everyone just pretends that didn’t happen. A man old enough to be her father and everyone just looks the other way because “haha me like car movie”. I could careless about how good of an actor you are, YOU SLEPT WITH A CHILD.
Losing Paul Walker changed everything in the fast franchise Paul Walker was one of my favourite actors and still is along with everyone else I will first surprised to see that they managed to keep the Fast saga going The eighth and ninth movies but in the lot different with Paul Walker no longer around
Paul deserves all the recognition on the world. And to be honest, he did get all the recognition. His death affected damn near the whole planet. I’m so glad that he is still being remembered by everyone to this day. And in terms of the song, I’m very glad it was made. Like others have commented, this is the one rare case where a celebrities death isn’t a cash grab. Everything about Paul after his death was an ode.
Dude I still remember going to see F7 in theaters with my Cousin. He and I were very close, somewhat conparable to Brain and Dom in the movies, and we had been watching F&F since we were kids, both being really into cars. We built up our identities around the things we learned from this franchise, the meaning of family, a code of honor, what it meant to be strong. We were devestated when we learned of Pauls passing, it left a hole in us that, at least for me, has yet to heal. Watching the tribute at the end broke us both, we rarely cried around eachother at this point, being teens trying to keep up the "Boys don't cry" façade, but we just let the tears flow, joining in the standing ovation and hugging it out. It really feels like it was the end of an era, eventually my cousin and I drifted apart, the F&F movies stopped being good (IMO), the reality of growing up hit us. I'm just glad that it was an era I got to be a part of, one I go back and relive consistantly by watching the first 7 films. Even if I never met him Paul changed my life, and I wouldn't give it for the world.
i cant watch or listen to anything got to do with Paul Walkers death cause every single time i feel like crying i grew up just like many of us watching Fast and Furious and i have very good memories of a very different time in my life from when i was younger and going to the movies to watch the new Fast and Furious movies with my family and now we are all grown up and living our own separate lives and those times and memories are long gone. damn i wish i could go back to when i was a kid
While it had been made and fine tuned for Paul Walker and the Fast and the Furious franchise, the song being open ended just enough to work fine for anyone with their family and friends was excellent. I always watched these movies as a child and teen with my other family members, and hearing about Paul's death hit hard in a way most other celebrities haven't, even back then. See You Again was a dedicated tribute that works great and is flexible for a variety of situations, and probably one pf my favourite songs of all time for the impact it had and meaning it carries on, and even just sounding good as is.
This managed to make me tear up, despite the fact I've never heard the song, never watched the FF movies, and knew nothing about Paul except that he was in them. Good content, Patrick. ♥
The drive and song doesn't have the full impact if you watch it years later and someone tells you Paul died during filming. First time I watched it, was I think a couple days after I heard of Paul's passing. From the start of the beach scene to the end of the song, I couldn't stop crying. One of the best and most respectful movie endings in cinematic history.
I feel like Wiz got all the credit for See You Again, when in reality it wasn’t for Charlie Puth, that song wouldn’t even exist. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good song, but Charlie deserves way more credit, and that’s why I believe this is one of the best videos I’ve seen too date that explains the origins of the track and the franchise of F&F.
Damn, and I thought I couldnt love Charlie Puth any more. Thank you. Oddly I relate a lot to him, His mind and voice are profound And rip PW, you were my fab character everything you said about him Patrick was so true
People forget how Vin diesel treated Paul like crap like they didnt get along during filming even Paul's best friends noticed how vin treated him like garbage
Shit is wild to see you blowing up and getting noticed by big creators like MoistCritikal, I remember watching your Rap videos and lists back during the early pandemic, you have come a long way, keep up the great content 💯🙏
The song also holds something dear to me, not just paul walker. My late best friend passed away over 4 years ago, and he and i were huge gear heads. I had an 86 IROC Z28, while he had an 88 IROC Z28.. and we met cause his IROC. I was gonna buy it, but it fell through.. so he got it. I remember messaging him on myspace (when it was popular) saying i was gonna buy that car, and ever since we became fast friends. We constantly worked on our cars together, drove around and did stupid things in them together, went too car events, raced one another, etc. So much he and i did! Most of my best memories are with him. We definitely had our ups and downs, as we loved each other very much and we're both stubborn as hell. But in the end we always made up. So when i got the news he passed away.. it broke me. I was in my car, and i had to pull over cause i couldn't stop crying. I managed to find a Hot Wheels 3rd gen Camaro that's black with red interior, literally exactly like his. Put his funeral card with the car inside of a protector and have it next to my bed. He will always be by my side till the day i die. And i hope that one day, if there is an afterlife, that him and i can into our 3rd gen Camaros again. God i fucking miss him so much. So the song and its music video hits on me another level.. that's for sure lol
Tokyo Drift was the best IMO as well. RIP to the times when the F&F were about street racing and we’re still good, and most importantly, RIP Paul Walker. A true legend.
The song will ALWAYS remind me of my late dad. He was a late Navy Veteran, and the last months was me and him going out every sunday to restaurants even to go see a movie. The last movie i got to see with my dad was Guardians of the Galaxy VOL.2. I saw my dad rolling away dead, and i was breaking down..and all i can do was to salute him.. I even breaking down trying not to cry typing this.
I agree that Fast3 is the best out of the whole franchise, it truly embodied racing and it beautifully portrayed underground street racing (not as good as Fast4 tho, the choreography of the race in that movie was amazing) It took place in Japan where car tuning truly skyrocketed and drifting was thrown into the plot

such a "great man"

Teared up multiple times during this video… patrick you are meant for greatness ❤️
I cried when I heard the way he died, but he's in a better place now.

I lost my first long-term boyfriend right before my 21st birthday. We had a really tight-knit group of friends who all attended high school together and remained super close for years. He died the day Fast 7 was released. I remember hearing the song for the first time that day. It really is such a beautiful song and has always resonated so closely with me. Always love your videos, but this one really hit home for me ❤️
That song isn't just the best, it is a piece of art that define the ending of the movie, and jump-start Charlie's career too, what a beautiful music I ever heard
Rip Paul Walker.
He groomed at 16 year old girl. Can’t believe you like him.
I was so in love with this man 🥺 Damn you breaking down the lyrics got me teary eyed. RIP Paul Walker 💙
See you again is a song that makes me cry instantly. My dad was obsessed with the movie series, and he two had died doing something he loved. He tragically died in a motorcycle accident. So at his burial the song played. So it just hits different everytime I watch it.
That’s fucking heart wrenching man I know that would make me cry just hearing that makes me sad knowing he even was sad from that and now he too is gone in the same way he was saddened about
@@echospace7347 yeah…thank you. It’s crazy how life goes full circle.
I remember watching this movie after his passing , the tension in the movie theater was real... No one could handle when they played "see you again" at the end. That final scene really broke everyone...
Except me who didn't know he died
@@jefftakesdscakes30or me, who knew he died but never gave a crap about any of his movies
The song is so good and powerful. And the fact that it came after Paul's passing just made it hit harder. I honestly didnt expect it to chart so high and even be the most viewed YT vid at a point but damn it was just so hard hitting. I guess i wasnt the only one who liked it so much.
Really????? U werent the only one who liked it???? You dont say???? Learn sumn new everyday
The song is trash
Dear Patrick I am 59. I'm probably the oldest person watching your channel but I love it. I have a 19 yr old son who is an aspiring rap artist so I actually know about most of the people you cover. You are always objective and professional. WELL DONE.
Romans 10:9 because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
How can you just claim you are the oldest person watching someones channel, Lmao
Do you feel cool? Or something? Lmao Big Woop trying to glorify being old and watching YT? Hahaha strange

At 3:00 that boom sound actually scared the shit out of me
Everyone in this world has lost someone. It resonates with everyone. No matter when or where I hear that song, I'll listen to it from start to finish. Beautiful song. Fitting tribute to a wonderful human being
This song started playing on the radio as my dad was taking me to court so that I could essentially turn myself in.
Then, three months into my stay, one day, and guards very rarely do this, a guard started playing that song while he was sitting at his desk, and it f*cking killed me.
Like seriously, that day hit me with an emotion that made me regret everything that I was doing even twice as much as I already was.
i can only imagine, omds
Hope you’re doing better now friend 🙏🏽
What? Your old man made yourself turn in?
@@SOSO_CREPITUS no lol. His pops just drove him to a court date.
Charlie Puth isn't just a songwriter 🤣
I was getting my braces tightened on constellation dr in Santa Clarita when this happened. Paul was somewhat of a local hero in our city.
They were pulling out of the always evolving shop parking lot and took a loop around constellation (which all of us car guys do out there. It’s our local burn spot.)
I’ll never forget hearing the thud of the crash while sitting in the ortho chair, and leaving my appointment to pull up on a Porsche on fire being put out, and ambulances pulling away.
I didn’t want to believe it was our hometown hero, but the always evolving team and charity event members made it abundantly clear.
Rest In Peace Paul. Cody is filling in your shoes and together with Sean lee is making a huge difference in our community in your honor.
That’s all. /end rant
This song was such a masterpiece. I grew up watching the Fast and Furious movies and it made my childhood, it made me into the car guy that I am today. I shared my passion of cars with one of my friends who bought his own car. I always hung out at his place, we drove fast, fucked around, tuned the car. He put his soul in it. I was supposed to save up to buy my own car and we could live our lives working on cars and racing around. We were gonna be an epic street racing duo.
Last year in November he sadly decided to end his own life. Now listening to this song just hits harder and harder. I miss you man, you were like a brother to me.
It's been a long day without you, my friend...
Thanks! Keep up the great work
Its literally insane how many streams that song has even still to this day. Great music truly never dies.
“If the speed kills me don’t cry because I was smiling”

There's never been any proof Paul Waller ever actually said this.
@@R3D_Lantern Ok
Okay
-Vin diesel
paul actually never said this
It’s a melancholic song for sure. Coming up on three years now, my best friend for a good 5 years left. He didn’t die, he just left. I haven’t spoken to him in a year as of writing this, and we’ve totally gone down different paths in life.
He didn’t tell me he had left until after he already did, and that next day I just listened to this song all day. It helped me move on, helped me remember all the ‘good times.’
Which I think is this songs best quality, being able to make you remember the happy times
wow , why he separated?
Man I, same as most fans of Paul and the F&F franchise was devastated over his passing. Charlie's song, somehow helped and yet still deepened the pain everyone was enduring during its time... In the end Charlie and Wiz, still helped us embrace and overcome the loss that was Paul Walker. I cannot fathom another musical piece that will impact the whole world the same this song did..
I’ve been depressed ever since then. Left a hole in my heart that can’t be filled. We miss you bro😟❤️
This song was amazing- it came out around the time a good friend of mine passed away and I still cry when I hear it. Shows a lot of skill when you can make a song dedicated to one person that can hold a greater meaning for many people.
Thank you for a classy, tasteful, well researched explanation of that tragic accident. Absolutely fantastic work, Pat!
You're a gifted presenter. Gott-dang snuck in an ad so seamlessly it was partial research, partial promotion, all skill. Respect.
Dang. It's so sad that Paul passed away but the good thing is that See You Again was an absolutely good song and a good way for the ending of the movie.
Phenomenal video. It’s hard to watch videos about Paul Walker because he is one of the few when it comes to actors, musicians and etc that meant a lot to me growing up. I just wanted to mention you left out one detail that I think would’ve been good to add. After his passing, his brother took over for his charity to do the wholesome work he was doing and they do car events all the time.
This song was playing at the last funeral I went to. My friend od'ed and he loved cars. Soo sad!
Paul was a big inspiration for me in my teens. I was a big car enthusiast previous to knowing him, but he showed me how to be kind, humble and loving. Trying to make the world a better place. It hit me like a truck when i learned about his passing. Till this day i couldnt bring myself to watch his last movie. Rip friend :)
What really hit me hard when I heard about his death was that he was on his way back home after a charity drive for victims of the typhoon Yolanda here in the Philippines. It made me cry a river especially how I grew up watching Fast and Furious and loving every bit of it… RIP to one of my most respectable artists in Hollywood.
Couldn't have said it better myself, RIP Paul you will be missed 🙏🏾 dope video
Video actually brought me pretty close to tears. Definitely one of the more powerful videos youve yet to release pat. 10/10
Paul Walker was my favorite actor. I had never "connected" with another actor like that before... Until Paul. And, until the franchise came out, I didn't know anything about cars or the cast, in general, really. However, after watching the first movie, I was hooked - on cars and on Paul, himself. He was so handsome. Those beautiful blue eyes and blonde hair with a touch of curl to it. I loved Paul and, the night that he died, I started bawling my eyes out; as if, I had just lost my best friend. And, in a sense, I still feel like I have - even till this day. He was a great man, friend, father, and actor. God Bless Paul Walker. Until we meet again someday...
Tbh bro every sense he died the fast furious movies were slowly getting dumb like is some avengers movie or gta online type stuff
But rip paul walker
They lost it after Fast Five….. should have stopped when Paul died tbh….. but Universal (whoever makes the movie) has the cast contracted for 10 movies and that’s why they’re releasing one every year…. More reasoning for them being ass
2:29 End of sponsor. R.I.P. Paul Walker (September 12, 1973 - November 30, 2013) ❤️ 🕊️
This was my best friends favorite song, he also sadly passed in a car accident
Patrick your video quality never ceases to amaze me. Always stepping up your game from the last, love the content dude keep it up!
We miss Paul walker
Rip to the legend
But also fuckin creep that dated a 16 year old when he was 32
Love how you make content barely anyone is talking about🔥. Keep it up✊🏽
Even watching this brings a tear to my eye after all this time. I never knew this man but his death took a toll on me to the point where i love and hate that song. I love that it makes me remember him every time i hear it but i hate the way it makes me feel inside. Still missing u Paul 😢R.I.P
See You Again means so much to my family and I. We played it at my brothers funeral and since then anytime my mom or I hear it we cant help but shed tears.
Don't forget that vin diesel was literally given the Riddick film rights to return to fast and the furious which turned into a giant franchise probably also making him ridiculous money too. Dude made out like a bandit 👌
the story is even more insane when he didnt get riddick for the whole FF franchise. universal signed over the rights to his production company just so vin would do a cameo in Tokyo drift. it wasnt for him to return to the whole franchise which is even more wild. the legit gave him rights to riddick just for a cameo XD.
You are a legend for making this video. Thank You Pat and R.I.P Paul Walker 🙏🏽🕊
This is probably your best video, I didn't even know that this was dedicated for Paul Walker and how this boosted Charlie Puth's career
Man that transition into the beats ad was wild, got me ngl 😂
Patrick I’ve been binge watching your videos and this is definitely one my favorites about Paul Walker, I learned about the F&F franchise and man I nearly teared up at the end.
I can’t lie Patrick CC documentaries are the best on UA-cam
Charlie is an actual musical genius
You been going hard with the content. Thanks bro!
Oh and first
Paul is the reason I'm into cars today. I can't tell you how many times I've watched the first 3 movies growing up and wanting to BE Brian O'Connor. Witnessing the Fast 7 ending credit had me crying in theaters and to this day. His documentary was a wonderful way to show the world just how incredibly humane he was. You never see a man quite like Paul Walker, especially in Hollywood. Seeing jokes online about his death always has me fuming because of their ignorance of such a great man.
Same bro
My cousin died the exact same day that Paul did. This actually had me in tears, thank for sharing it. 💜
One of the best sponsor transition, ong lmao
It's crazy how so many people ignore the fact that Paul Walker was a pedophile. I guess people pick and choose.
RIP Paul
I think I remember reading somewhere that Charlie wrote the song for the label but they wanted to give it to another artist to sing. He gave them an ultimatum that either he sang the vocals for the song or they couldn't have it. Then the film cast and crew also wanted Charlie on it so the studio agreed and the rest is history.
I think it's a beautiful song for anyone who has lost someone important in their lives. But I think it would be awkward to play that at a wedding. The song is unmistakably connected to a death.
I'm a car guy and his death really impacted car guys a lot we loved him. Fly high Paul 🕊
I get why everyone loves this guy but I still cant look past that he had a girlfriend that was 16 when he was well over his 30 mark.. classic Hollywood if you ask me.
i was looking for this comment. i don’t get why no one ever talks about that??
There's always that one person who just has to spread negativity
Yeah its unfortunate how hed died but yeah i didnt forget he dated a teenager
@@o_s_byron2319 its not negative its true
THIS, everyone just pretends that didn’t happen. A man old enough to be her father and everyone just looks the other way because “haha me like car movie”. I could careless about how good of an actor you are, YOU SLEPT WITH A CHILD.
Losing Paul Walker changed everything in the fast franchise Paul Walker was one of my favourite actors and still is along with everyone else I will first surprised to see that they managed to keep the Fast saga going The eighth and ninth movies but in the lot different with Paul Walker no longer around
Paul deserves all the recognition on the world. And to be honest, he did get all the recognition. His death affected damn near the whole planet. I’m so glad that he is still being remembered by everyone to this day.
And in terms of the song, I’m very glad it was made. Like others have commented, this is the one rare case where a celebrities death isn’t a cash grab. Everything about Paul after his death was an ode.
This song breaks anyone who has lost one of their brothers.
Dude I still remember going to see F7 in theaters with my Cousin. He and I were very close, somewhat conparable to Brain and Dom in the movies, and we had been watching F&F since we were kids, both being really into cars. We built up our identities around the things we learned from this franchise, the meaning of family, a code of honor, what it meant to be strong. We were devestated when we learned of Pauls passing, it left a hole in us that, at least for me, has yet to heal. Watching the tribute at the end broke us both, we rarely cried around eachother at this point, being teens trying to keep up the "Boys don't cry" façade, but we just let the tears flow, joining in the standing ovation and hugging it out. It really feels like it was the end of an era, eventually my cousin and I drifted apart, the F&F movies stopped being good (IMO), the reality of growing up hit us. I'm just glad that it was an era I got to be a part of, one I go back and relive consistantly by watching the first 7 films. Even if I never met him Paul changed my life, and I wouldn't give it for the world.
i cant watch or listen to anything got to do with Paul Walkers death cause every single time i feel like crying i grew up just like many of us watching Fast and Furious and i have very good memories of a very different time in my life from when i was younger and going to the movies to watch the new Fast and Furious movies with my family and now we are all grown up and living our own separate lives and those times and memories are long gone. damn i wish i could go back to when i was a kid
We all wish period
We all do man. We all do.
While it had been made and fine tuned for Paul Walker and the Fast and the Furious franchise, the song being open ended just enough to work fine for anyone with their family and friends was excellent. I always watched these movies as a child and teen with my other family members, and hearing about Paul's death hit hard in a way most other celebrities haven't, even back then. See You Again was a dedicated tribute that works great and is flexible for a variety of situations, and probably one pf my favourite songs of all time for the impact it had and meaning it carries on, and even just sounding good as is.
I had no idea this song was MADE for Paul. Now I'm crying all over again. 😭😭😭
This managed to make me tear up, despite the fact I've never heard the song, never watched the FF movies, and knew nothing about Paul except that he was in them.
Good content, Patrick. ♥
The drive and song doesn't have the full impact if you watch it years later and someone tells you Paul died during filming. First time I watched it, was I think a couple days after I heard of Paul's passing. From the start of the beach scene to the end of the song, I couldn't stop crying. One of the best and most respectful movie endings in cinematic history.
Man I love your new video essays, is there any way I can get in contact with you?
Just dm me on Instagram! patrickcctv
I feel like Wiz got all the credit for See You Again, when in reality it wasn’t for Charlie Puth, that song wouldn’t even exist. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a good song, but Charlie deserves way more credit, and that’s why I believe this is one of the best videos I’ve seen too date that explains the origins of the track and the franchise of F&F.
Damn, and I thought I couldnt love Charlie Puth any more. Thank you.
Oddly I relate a lot to him,
His mind and voice are profound
And rip PW, you were my fab character everything you said about him Patrick was so true
Man that end scene made all the men cry in the cinema. It was amazing.
People forget how Vin diesel treated Paul like crap like they didnt get along during filming even Paul's best friends noticed how vin treated him like garbage
This video really put into perspective how fast, unexpected and too soon his death was.
Shit is wild to see you blowing up and getting noticed by big creators like MoistCritikal, I remember watching your Rap videos and lists back during the early pandemic, you have come a long way, keep up the great content 💯🙏
RIP never forget
#5 was the best in my opinion . They did a good job handling his passing.
The song also holds something dear to me, not just paul walker. My late best friend passed away over 4 years ago, and he and i were huge gear heads. I had an 86 IROC Z28, while he had an 88 IROC Z28.. and we met cause his IROC. I was gonna buy it, but it fell through.. so he got it. I remember messaging him on myspace (when it was popular) saying i was gonna buy that car, and ever since we became fast friends. We constantly worked on our cars together, drove around and did stupid things in them together, went too car events, raced one another, etc. So much he and i did! Most of my best memories are with him. We definitely had our ups and downs, as we loved each other very much and we're both stubborn as hell. But in the end we always made up. So when i got the news he passed away.. it broke me. I was in my car, and i had to pull over cause i couldn't stop crying. I managed to find a Hot Wheels 3rd gen Camaro that's black with red interior, literally exactly like his. Put his funeral card with the car inside of a protector and have it next to my bed. He will always be by my side till the day i die. And i hope that one day, if there is an afterlife, that him and i can into our 3rd gen Camaros again. God i fucking miss him so much. So the song and its music video hits on me another level.. that's for sure lol
Tokyo Drift was the best IMO as well. RIP to the times when the F&F were about street racing and we’re still good, and most importantly, RIP Paul Walker. A true legend.
I gotta admit even as a huge fan of death metal, see you again is probably one of the best songs ever made.
paul walker died but he gave us a masterpeace
The song will ALWAYS remind me of my late dad.
He was a late Navy Veteran, and the last months was me and him going out every sunday to restaurants even to go see a movie. The last movie i got to see with my dad was Guardians of the Galaxy VOL.2.
I saw my dad rolling away dead, and i was breaking down..and all i can do was to salute him..
I even breaking down trying not to cry typing this.
Lets be honest. The first movie is the best. It was actually about cars back then. That was what we loved.
I agree that Fast3 is the best out of the whole franchise, it truly embodied racing and it beautifully portrayed underground street racing (not as good as Fast4 tho, the choreography of the race in that movie was amazing)
It took place in Japan where car tuning truly skyrocketed
and drifting was thrown into the plot
