    Can not express enough the Pride we have in the job Sandra did on this video and can not thank American Authors enough for giving her the opportunity.

    Just so people know, Joshua Castille (THE SMOLLEST, PUREST CINNAMON ROLL) did the ASL translation for this!

      +Legandary Lps I know! They're housemates as well! I'm a huge fan of the show and the whole cast so seeing them finally getting exposure makes me feel so proud (especially when you think about the fact that they started in a small warehouse theatre at Inner City Arts). It's a truly breathtaking production that means so much to so many people and especially to the deaf community; it's a pity it had to leave Broadway so soon 😢. Say hello to Sandy and your dad (the fandom loves him) for me!

      i never gonna sell my soul i think so it has to do with Illuminati. I think so this whole song is about them . Like my comment if you agree

    • @Jilly_Neutron
      @Jilly_Neutron 8 років тому +13

      god they are both just the greatest things ever. I loved the moment where she signed a stream of "nothing"s, and then just "not". Beautiful, emotional, raw, etc. Also Josh's voice is my guilty pleasure. He makes simcom the cutest thing ever.

    • @mischa2643
      @mischa2643 6 років тому +5

      Josh has such a pure way of translating intent and it's beautiful to see. I adore this!

    "Pride" is another A list song by the American Authors but watching the intensity in which Sandra Mae Frank signs this song is mesmerizing.

    @spiinniing 7 років тому +367

    No okay I am ALL ABOUT this new trend of ASL music videos. I don't even care if bands are just jumping on the bandwagon I encourage MORE to do so! This is so important for deaf and HOH people everywhere. Music is a language of its own, an expression of feelings and stories and heart, and it's so important for those who can't hear it to still be included and be a part of it. Music is for everyone. :)

    • @oldforestsystem
      @oldforestsystem 7 років тому +15

      Amy Wallace i agree but there is that problem of people making asl videos that are roughly translated and arent visually pleasing and then its not geared toward non hearing people but towards people who can hear and cant tell that its not accurate signing. this video is one of the really good ones, but their are some bad ones out there.

    • @Manami_Miku
      @Manami_Miku 7 років тому +5

      Amy Wallace, Wat about the mute who hear but, not speak. I used to b mute & once in a while, my bf gets upset when, i can't say wat i wan or can't say wat i feel i go back to use A.S.L he then says, "no baby! say it cuz i don't understand which makes both of us sad. I'll help u wit the word, thou okie baby." i say "okie." but, wat about those who r still mute is it okie for them to follow wit music??

    • @mischa2643
      @mischa2643 6 років тому +4

      Hinata Ann Michaca I think that's totally cool. Sign was created to give a voice to people who otherwise wouldn't have one-that's deaf/hoh people, sure, but also mute people, people with autism spectrum disorders, panic disorders (I have a friend who resorts to sign during panic and dissociative episodes) and learning disability. It's very very important in the deaf community but it's not exclusively ours.

      @thescrapbookofwillowrayne7383 5 років тому

      I love your comment because it is true. Music has been a huge part of my life and when I thought of the deaf community it gave me further encouragement to learn and have a channel to where people can go.

    • @kyraleiph
      @kyraleiph 3 роки тому

      I want to do something like this!!!! Ever since I took 1 ASL class! Would love a musical in ASL!!!!! Sound and vibrations are part of my animation. (Overwhelming task but I want to do it.) :O a really good translator would really help.

  • @XxLeighabehtxX
    @XxLeighabehtxX 8 років тому +106

    I really can't say enough how cool this is to see. I love seeing the deaf community being featured more in the arts (Deaf Spring Awakening was one of the best musicals I had the privileged to see) And Sandra is just a gem. She's so talented and honestly such a sweetheart

  • @ameliadornan4917
    @ameliadornan4917 7 років тому +61

    whoever thought of asl music videos are a godsend, this is huge for the deaf community. I'm so happy I can actually know what they're saying, captions aren't always reliable

    • @macregister3785

    • @thescrapbookofwillowrayne7383
      @thescrapbookofwillowrayne7383 5 років тому

      You are right which is why I created my channel. The deaf community should be able to enjoy music video like everyone else, however, if the captions are wrong that could be confusing. Love this comment.

  • @emrissimmons4197
    @emrissimmons4197 6 років тому +19

    I sadly don't speak sign language but I love watching it spoken. Such a beautiful, expressive language. I'd love to see more music videos like this.

    • @macm.3889
      @macm.3889 5 років тому

      K Leigh heh, that is a pretty true statement, but it's not bad to say that 😂 Emily, if you're curious about the regular thing to say, it would be "signed". And you're right, sign language really is quite beautiful!

    I'm HoH so seeing a signed version of one of my favorite songs by one of my favorite bands made me cry of happiness - and pride lol. This is as awesome as the Deaf character on Supernatural, Eileen (which also made me cry a LOT.) I can't wait to see you guys on Monday in SF!! ❤️ you're amazing and I love your positivity, and your music itself of course.
