This isn't Hua Chen Yu's story, but his own childhood was very unhappy. His parents divorced when he was 3 or 4, and he lived with his dad who withheld his love, praise, and attention. He drew on his own pain to make this and Fake Monk sound authentic to him.
He rearranged the original rap song to this in 24 hours - a true story. It's not his own story but as it is known that he was a victim of emotional neglect in his childhood he put a lot of his own feelings into it as emotional blows sometimes can hurt as much as physical blows. It's a songs as should be heard to make people aware and maybe help children in such situations.
Funny you had noticed the tears. In a behind the scenes video for this song he had cried a few times during practice while singing this song. It shows how well he can immerse himself into music.
He just finished a 3 nights concert in China. A huge stadium holding 50，000+ pax of ppl. Fans around the world flying in to catch this once a year event n they rock the stadium with him. The event catering this huge sum of ppl was so smooth n the city so warm n welcome all the fans. So Glad to visit his world. The amazing 3 nights, every1 was so full of energy celebrating. He also release many new songs that touches many hearts n fans started tearing. The tears of joy. Hope u can do reaction to his new songs..
Hua Hua performed this song in a special way but it emphasized emotions more. He is a natural genius who is best at expressing emotions. Everytime you feel that his emotions are so real and strong. He is really incredibly talented. His new concert has just finished yesterday. All of his new songs are amazing. Hope you can react very soon. Thanks !
It’s always difficult for me to watch this performance. My father never beat my mother, thankfully, but he constantly yelled. He would go berserk when he thought I needed to be disciplined. He never stopped yelling at me to tell me how stupid I was. It affected me my whole life. When he finally died a few years ago at age 87, I didn’t even know how or what to feel. Egads. Sorry to carry on. Hua Chenyu’s performance was brilliant. 🙃
Thanks for sharing. It is one of those very personal things isn't it, that carries such an impact. Hua Hua manages to tap into that. Very intense performance. 😊
OMG !!!...it's a monster of the stage....a perfect actor,he knows how to provoke and control emotions...it has everything under control including the public. Is a king!!!!
Hey Caleb. Like others have said, it is not his own story. He was asked to perform the song, which is originally a rap song. However, he chose to talk rather than rap, because he found the content of the song was really important and did not want to draw attention away from it. Apparently , people speak even less of domestic violence in China than you do in European countries (and perhaps Australia?). He was unsure how audience would receive his choices of rearranging the song, but followed his intuition. Everyone in the room was affected emotionally, regardless of knowing that it was not his own story. He always manages to empathically identify emotions of a song and dig up those emotions within himself. Thank you for your reaction!
This young man is so talented. I love how each song he does he is able to show so much emotion. I pray anyone that is an abuser that watches this takes away the message that the bruises go away, but the pain is so deep it never disappears. I was once this child and am glad to see him portray more than just words. Amazing performance. May God give healing to the souls of all going through any violence. Peace and love to all. BTW, I love the Dimash covers you are doing.
The first time I watched this performance, it was without subtitles and I still cried like a baby . . . Thank you for your insight about the hands hurting - you are the only reactor I know of to clue in on that piece.
Such an amazing performance. You get so caught up in the emotion and lyrics you forget that he's the one playing the piano at the same time and never misses a beat! So impressive!
Oh my God...my heart breaking i felt every single lines of that songs full of emotion...i hope this song be an eye opener to the world where full of violence,hatered inside and out of every families.
You gotta react to his new song Madhouse from his Mars 2019 concert that just ended. It's really catchy and awesome. Thanks for your reaction Caleb!! BTW Caleb, this isn't his story. He had 24 hours to rearrange a rap song by Jay Chou into this masterpiece.

This is a great performance by Hua, he originally just did the vocal part in 2014 or 2015, he was younger and wore black glasses. In 2013 he won SUPER BOY. At the end he sang not the greatest version of I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU and said, “ I love you Dad”. His Dad was in the audience. His parents divorced when he was about just 4. There is a video of his Father crying and in the subtitles his Dad said he was sorry for not being home enough and he had to work many hours. I Hua’s new Concerts he just did he has 4 songs about his life, Conversations With Martian Children, Madhouse, I Really Want to Live This World, Sacred Tree, Seven Personalities. They do not have subtitles yet and are emotional (one of them he collapses at the end of the song) he talks about Depression and in the last song he talks about the different emotions we may have and how they affect the individual. He usually uses a lyricist to write what he is trying to convey. Also, he really has perfected his vocals from 2013 to the present.
Actually this isn’t his story. He was simply telling someone else’s story. Hua Chenyu is known for his performances. He sings and performs with a lot of true emotions and thoughts. He is a very thoughtful and kind artist who wishes to help us understand the music. He doesn’t act on purpose. It’s just he tends to get really attached to his music, so everything being displayed is his true emotions.
I appreciate your reactions and I'm happy to see one about Hua. There are many things to discover about him as he is a professional singer since 2013 but I recommend you to start with his performances from Singer 2018 (ep 4 to 14). Each performance is worth to be seen and I'm sure you'll soon become a Martian! (the name of his fans).
This song always makes me turn into a red faced sobbing mess, it isn't about his life though it's his own arrangement of Jay Chows song. Hua had a childhood with some neglect despite being a well off family, so he could bring up his emotions very well. His story telling and emotional performances are just brilliant. He is an amazing talent and I am a big fan of his music 💖
This song gets me every time I hear it. I cry throughout the song and afterwards, no matter how many times I hear it. I can't keep away from it for some reason. I'm extremely fortunate that I grew up in a loving home and if anything, my father was so docile and never chided us in any way. I still have tears in my eyes as I write this.
Hi Caleb, Yess Hua is an brilliant artist that can tell a story and we can also feel the emotions of it. By singing such a delicate problem a lot of people can relay to it but also he put it under the attention. Hopefuly so that one can take action because every kind of violance is unacctepable. Tx 👍
this time i really paid attention to the performance and i am blown away with the depth and beauty of his performance......it should be required that all "beaters" be tied in a chair and be made to listen to this ....and then go to get help to understand why they want to inflict such pain on others.
It's hard to believe that i isn't his own story, though as in his interview preceding "Fake Monk" showed, his childhood had elements of neglect that he could draw upon. For another performance, where he was a guest duet partner of the singer Juno, in a different competition that shows more of his acting skills and another unexpected talent, try "(Eng Sub) Perhaps Love". I'll put the link in a different comment. If you don't see it that means it went to spam, but you can look up the title anyway.
Yeah I didn't realise he didn't write it because I saw a comment speaking about how he used his own experience to convey the emotions in this song. I'll check it out, thanks!!
R.Gray Hua was neglected as a child, but was never subject to abuse. Jay Chou as a child did witness physical and verbal abuse from his dad upon his mom and wrote this song later in his life. Hua was a mentor to Juno on the show The Next where they performed 2 songs together.
Hua is my fav + most beloved chinese person on earth since many years - but - i really never thought that there would be a "song" what exactly would "tell what i think or feel" (too) + the lyrics/words would so perfectly fit to my own "story" with "my so called dad" .... and reflect situations and feelings which i usually bury deep deep + try to avoid to think of, bcos it still hurts in a way. so - phewww... whenever i hear this song again or see this video like here in a reaction-video... (which is sadly bcos of LIC´s no more available for me) - it always hits me again really hard, no matter how often i listen or watch him on this song. but its truly what i love most about Hua.. he is always real and just HIMSELF no matter what, ..and he wont change that ever, i think (what is really AWESOME about him..) i love that about him. 💜💜 i also Love a lot the fact, how he can in just a few seconds catpure a persons heart+mind and how he usually makes/turnes a "usual performance" into a "stadion concert" in no time - in every show he is invited - just like this, like when you snap with your finger or .....within "a wink of an eye" and BAAAM.. he gets the ppl , like no other i would know! hehe... (or..lets say ... like very rare amount of ppl i do know, who are so amazing and do so!)🤭🤭 ===================================================================================== ===================================================================================== PS--- lol i had to push this edit-button now here: bcos ---- i wanted ask Caleb + everyone whos interested... ---> DID you ever watched this one here? : ua-cam.com/video/i6POAIKbmlA/v-deo.html dont miss it - bcos not only 1 talent is standing there singing his own song with a smirk on his face + surrounded by all this talented voices - nope - it also happen that there is (especially this guy) so many more talent to see and to hear in this video! - ENJOY!! bcos: its a real ear-gasm-gift lol Oh...and: if you would like to watch a full show with Hua+others who sing with him like that... (with engl subs) pls go to here: ua-cam.com/video/JNLVtTlj_MY/v-deo.html xoxo thanks for checking out - enjoy!!! 💜😁
Was waiting on your reaction to this performance. It really showcased his creative genius talent in rearranging and composing and the style he chose to do it in. On top of that stellar poignant performance. Guarantee all his performances on the Next for both seasons, Ace vs Ace, The Coming One, Singer is something to look forward to. Known to many as King of stage performer.
You really feel music and this is a specially emotional song, or rather stoytelling. Hua Chenyu is always true in whatever he does, and so are your comments. Thank you
Backstory on this competition and the performance: The guy in white at the end, who was emotional, is the one who challenged Hua and gave him Dad, I'm Home. Hua had 24 hours to rearrange it. He took a rap song and turned it into an anthem about domestic violence. The guy in white was so emotional it messed up his following performance, and Hua won. No, it isn't Hua's story, but it IS many thousands of others' stories. Up next for you will likely be "Child", what many consider his best song. He has did two duets with Juno Su, "Nanping Evening Bell", which is a stunningly beautiful song, and "Perhaps Love", which came after Nanping. Thank you for your heartfelt reaction, it isn't your typical song. The first time I heard Dad, I sat there for 10 minutes, very emotional, trying to process what I had heard. Thank you again.
I've always felt very sorry for that young man. I think he chose the song to throw Hua Hua off but I think there might have been some deep seated personal angst that made him choose this song. In the end it backfired on him as it exposed his own pain. How does one follow this type of performance? He was so distraught. Poor boy
I had a similar heart reaction to this video. When I learned that this was a reinterpretation of a rap and not at all similar to this young man's upbringing, I was torn. First, I was impressed with his acting and interpretting, but also I felt somewhat duped. He was so believable. Yes, this could help others. This is a beautifully tragic performance.
Actually, he re-arranged this song in this way to help people pay attention to this important issue. You can watch his Story behind Song Arrangements 2017 interview about his adaptation for the Next show. ua-cam.com/video/dfgHqPU6PIY/v-deo.html You can also get a glimpse of his personality. He is just such a fun, wise and talented person.
Hi Caleb, what others have already mentioned, not his story but an incredible performance by such a talented artist, this story is very close to home for me as I suffered growing up in that exact situation, I have watched it many times and I am a blubbering mess every time but on a good note it has actually freed me from some hidden feelings from my past, powerful indeed! Thanks or your reaction.
Hi Caleb!! Hua chenyu had sang a new song composed by him called on his concert.That one was EPIC!So Fresh,so unique .(That is also become my favourite song now!)However it had not been translated yet.I hope one day in the future，i could see your reaction to that one,that would be awesome!☺️☺️Thank you！！（btw,your cover of screaming is sooo great!!)
Хуа, очень талантливый певец и композитор. Эта композиция такая трогательная и глубокая! Спасибо за реакцию! Можно спросить:не будете ли Вы делать реакцию на выступление Димаша Кудайбергена, на фестивале в Японии 19.11.2019г. Мне нравятся Ваши вдумчивые и глубокие реакции.
....such an emotional and heartbreaking story and song, but as far as I have been reading about that performance, it isn't his own story! ( very sorry don't mean to spoil you great comments in your reaction! 🙏 ...and I can read others have brought subject to you attension before me : ) ) The fact that he can performe in such a way that you as a listener believe it is his own story...tells a whole lot about his artistic skill and way of telling a story! Such an incredible one...don't believe I have ever seen such performance before! Love Hua Chenyu's vocie!
My dad had never drunk alcoholics. Only new Year or so. But my childhood was not easy. He is a strict man, he beated me, my siblings and my mom. Sometimes with a leather belt, sometimes with his hand. It was a hard time. But I have also very good memorys with him and many things I forgave him. Not all, you know, but many. I totally FEEL the pain in the song and if you know, that chinese people don't show their emotions in public, its even more expressive.
Like many have said it’s not his own story, but the guy in the white that was kinda crying/tearing up was actually the guy who challenged Hua to rearrange the song that was originally an old rap song. But that’s even more amazing as an artists to be able to perform this kind of song as if it was his own story. Idk if u would be intrested in reacting to Hua Chenyu’s song Cancer it’s a song with no lyrics just sounds it’s very uneasy and uncomfortable but that’s actually the point of it. It’s supposed to display the disease Cancer and how it grows scarier and scarier.
This is late but Hua has a complicated past. He was alone a lot, his parents divorced when he was young. Hua’s musical journey is rather long. He won a competition called Super Boy at 23. (He still does some of the songs from 2013! He has rearranged them and his voice is better bit then he will be 30 on 2/7) His first version of this song has no talking. His IS a Performance Artist. (His fiber of CREEP in 2013 and a few years later are different but very emotional like this song) So if you have the time, look at previous performances and at 24 wrote Quasimodo’s Gift which is very complex and a beautiful and sad song from Victor Hugo’s Hunchback of Nôtre Dame. (Hua is well read in classics and classical music, plays many Instruments & the flute since he was 6. The Mars Concerts: there are more than one, each one is different and not just the music, he designs the sets s and staging, It is worth checking out Hua English Subs and watch his Mars Concerts and see this Genius control, in some concerts, 90,000 each Concert. I watch videos and his music touches my soul. He does do more than one style of music in some songs. Nunchucks was a “female voice” from Chinese Opera. Party of the reason he sings from the front of his mouth is the Mandarin Dialect. He does use his voice as an instrument and the words translated from Chinese to English are very lyrical. There is an older song GIANT DEER, very ethereal and the opposite of I DON’T CARE or ALIENS & more. Thank you for your reactions and he wrote 5 new songs in 2019. He was talking about depression and to help people who might need help not to turn away, He is on THE SINGER 2020 & a show called ACE vs ACE - comedy. Then a Mars Concert (s) in the late Spring.
I dont think we can react to his new songs till it all has subtitles. I'd like to see you do cancer. the new songs are in progress of being translated .... ;) theres so many to do a song analysis. You will be amazed with his new songs. He has taken it to the next level
That wasn’t his story. He was just showing the audience how u can cge a song to make it your own...it doesn’t always have to b singing, it can just b a narration They have this tv show in China where the artists have 24 hrs to interpret a song and give it their own cover. (I think it’s just 24 hrs. He did say in one vid I watched that he was able to do this interpretation in just 24hrs). This was the result of his choice of songs. Having said that. He did have a very lonely childhood. His parents spilt, his dad worked away fr home a lot, so he became very introverted, had NO clue how to interact w/other people. It wasn’t until he was in university that he learnt how to act in social settings. His music teacher took him under her wing. He was CLUELESS on his to get along w/other people. Because of his loneliness growing up he went into a very dark place and he attributes this time period a place of discovery....his luv of music ..,may be it dark at times but it gave him an outlet. Up until he won the Superboy contest in 2013 his father had NEVER given him any compliments or encouragement...Hua was 23 at this point...he asked his dad why he raised him that way and his dad told him that he wanted him to b able to rely totally on himself for any thing that was to come his way. He did not want Hua to go thru life seeking approval fr other people. He wanted him to b self sufficient in all things. (They have a wonderful relationship now.) It wasn’t until Hua’s little sister was born did he get 2 experience any type of childhood. He then saw his father become a dad. The nice thing is Hua never resented or was jealous of his sister. He embraced it wholeheartedly and got to enjoy a childhood he never had. (He was. a young adult by the time his sister was born). I personally loved his interpretation of the song Fr across the waters Canada 🇨🇦 🐥🐥🐥hugs and all that jazz
Despite raving positive reviews, Huahua received a lot of criticism for this performance from ppl who criticised that this is not considered as "singing". One of Huahua's vision as a musician, he hopes to expose and broaden people's horizon in music, thus all these different styles of performance and music genre in his music and "experimental" style in this and "fake monk".
Great attention to comment bring people's attention to some serious matter of domestic violence. This was a song from Jay Chou (extremely famous chinese singer songwriter) which is done in typical Jay rap style (here is the original). This video which you did a reaction is from a show called The Next which no name singers compete against 4 host well established famous singers. It's a one on one battle where the song list is randomly chosen by fans and then the challenger chooses the song for the host singer and the two singers (which have individual song) have 24hrs to rearrange and perform, really a great show and actually showcases off Hua Chenyu's insane brilliance and talent. Also which part of Australia you from mate?
FUN FACTS: Huahua didn't believe fans that it's difficult to buy his concert ticket, so he tried to buy his own concert ticket this yr, he failed. To keep trying, his 1 day concert kept adding to 3 days, but he failed all 3 times and had to keep his promise to shave his head, even though he's just gotten a hair product advertise and just about 3 weeks before his concert which he's supposed to look nice (anyway he still looks nice, see it for yourself). BUT WORSE! He even lost to his fans in getting hotel room where his concert was held?!? LOL!! Here's his new song at his Nov 2019 concert which I love very much, song name: "Madhouse", pls react to it. ua-cam.com/video/ExixbD6BD9w/v-deo.html In the concert he mentioned that people with depression actually "fear" that others think they are fine and doing alright which deep down they actually are not, so he urged everyone to be more mindful of people around us and give them loving care. This is so true. And he's so sweet, kind and spiritual, apart from all his talents! 🌸🌸🥰
I really think you should react to his songs in “the singer 2018” to see his different sides. Specially I like “Child”. And also I really recommend his new song he composed “ seven personalities”. A bit early for you to react to that song when you haven’t heard much from him. But I think as a singer and composed, you can definitely feel his art level and his talent. Really out of this world as I think because I haven’t seen anything like that before. This the link of “seven personalities” m.ua-cam.com/video/Knl3BuQdyjM/v-deo.html
The 2019 Mars concert is really genius and brilliant. Hua released 5 new songs at the concert. 3 of them are a trilogy. Would you please react to the first one next. Hua said It's for people who have depression. "I really want to love this world” with English subtitles connected to the original official channel amara.org/en/videos/u6Wi5THH08iU/info/2019-hua-chenyu-mars-concerthd-i-really-want-to-love-this-world/ 2nd "Mad House" amara.org/en/videos/ioCO5UuyTnjC/info/2019-
Hua was not through this. The song is a cover. It just shows how well he immerses into a song when he performs it. Hua had a lonely childhood and he agonizes through it in Fake Monk. Here is the link to his story followed by the song: ua-cam.com/video/txVJPrWYetg/v-deo.html It makes the song so much more understandable. I hard that the wailing is supposed to represent Hua crying. After that we can get away from the sad and watch PERHAPS LOVE a lovely duet with Juno.
Please please please react to his 4 new songs called The Sacred Tree, Really want to love this world, Madhouse and Seven Personalities. They are really awesome. I swear you will be surprised!!
hi mr. coles! I really love your reaction for every video that you make. I hope you'll do a reaction video of Morisette Amon's "Naririnig mo ba" live on wish bus. Thank you so much😇
hello, I strongly recommend a new song by Hua Chenyu, called Sacred Tree, link:ua-cam.com/video/IxgjXasF0r8/v-deo.html I think this performance is an epic, and trust me, you won't be disappointed. This fancam version is the best version!
Its very emotional..make me cry .. Hai i'm new here can you please react claudia emmanuella Santoso from the voice germany 2019 song is Never enough And give your analisis Thank u
It is very misleading if, for a person reacting to the song, to have not done enough research to know that this wasn't his own song (and he's doing a cover; you can check out the outlines of the variety show) and to say that it was his childhood. Very misleading to people who didn't know the truth. Even though other people wrote in the comments "It is not his story", not everyone who watches your video read the comments. Got it? I am a fan of Hua Chen Yu for a couple years now, and if you are doing a reaction video of him, then do your research. Because you are doing the reaction video and being sorry for Hua Chen Yu. And, on the other hand, you don't need to be sorry for anyone. I don't understand this American thing that when you hear other people's sad stories you have to say "I am sorry". No, you are not sorry. In fact, you might not be able to relate at all. You can't relate, then walk away. I am much better now than my past so you don't need to be sorry at all.
This isn't Hua Chen Yu's story, but his own childhood was very unhappy. His parents divorced when he was 3 or 4, and he lived with his dad who withheld his love, praise, and attention. He drew on his own pain to make this and Fake Monk sound authentic to him.
I love the fact that his songs are not all about loves and relationships
He rearranged the original rap song to this in 24 hours - a true story. It's not his own story but as it is known that he was a victim of emotional neglect in his childhood he put a lot of his own feelings into it as emotional blows sometimes can hurt as much as physical blows.

Such an amazing performance. You get so caught up in the emotion and lyrics you forget that he's the one playing the piano at the same time and never misses a beat! So impressive!

This is a great performance by Hua, he originally just did the vocal part in 2014 or 2015, he was younger and wore black glasses. In 2013 he won SUPER BOY. At the end he sang not the greatest version of I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU and said, “ I love you Dad”. His Dad was in the audience. His parents divorced when he was about just 4. There is a video of his Father crying and in the subtitles his Dad said he was sorry for not being home enough and he had to work many hours.

This song always makes me turn into a red faced sobbing mess, it isn't about his life though it's his own arrangement of Jay Chows song. Hua had a childhood with some neglect despite being a well off family, so he could bring up his emotions very well. His story telling and emotional performances are just brilliant. He is an amazing talent and I am a big fan of his music 💖
This song gets me every time I hear it. I cry throughout the song and afterwards, no matter how many times I hear it. I can't keep away from it for some reason. I'm extremely fortunate that I grew up in a loving home and if anything, my father was so docile and never chided us in any way. I still have tears in my eyes as I write this.
Gosh, he convinced me! Great talent!
I think you would also enjoy Chenyu doing "Oh Friend". It is another very emotional performance. I cried like a baby.
Hi Caleb,
Yess Hua is an brilliant artist that can tell a story and we can also feel the emotions of it. By singing such a delicate problem a lot of people can relay to it but also he put it under the attention. Hopefuly so that one can take action because every kind of violance is unacctepable. Tx 👍
Yeah, so true :)
Very sad song.....very sad story....excellent interpretation....Hua Chenyu is great artist to be able to convey the emotions like that...
this time i really paid attention to the performance and i am blown away with the depth and beauty of his performance......it should be required that all "beaters" be tied in a chair and be made to listen to this ....and then go to get help to understand why they want to inflict such pain on others.
It's hard to believe that i isn't his own story, though as in his interview preceding "Fake Monk" showed, his childhood had elements of neglect that he could draw upon. For another performance, where he was a guest duet partner of the singer Juno, in a different competition that shows more of his acting skills and another unexpected talent, try "(Eng Sub) Perhaps Love". I'll put the link in a different comment. If you don't see it that means it went to spam, but you can look up the title anyway.
Yeah I didn't realise he didn't write it because I saw a comment speaking about how he used his own experience to convey the emotions in this song. I'll check it out, thanks!!
R.Gray Hua was neglected as a child, but was never subject to abuse. Jay Chou as a child did witness physical and verbal abuse from his dad upon his mom and wrote this song later in his life.
Hua was a mentor to Juno on the show The Next where they performed 2 songs together.
@@CalebColesMusic hua rearranged 2 songs into 1 with ENGLISH SUB "Perhaps Love"
ua-cam.com/video/CtUQ-RhJXK0/v-deo.html
"Ordinary Path" and "Flammable and explosive" are very good, also from the singer series.
Huachenyu! Haha my favorite singer thank u
Hua is my fav + most beloved chinese person on earth since many years - but -
i really never thought that there would be a "song" what exactly would "tell what i think or feel" (too)
+ the lyrics/words would so perfectly fit to my own "story" with "my so called dad" ....
and reflect situations and feelings which i usually bury deep deep + try to avoid to think of, bcos it still hurts in a way.
so - phewww...
whenever i hear this song again or see this video like here in a reaction-video... (which is sadly bcos of LIC´s no more available for me) - it always hits me again really hard, no matter how often i listen or watch him on this song.
but its truly what i love most about Hua..
he is always real and just HIMSELF no matter what, ..and he wont change that ever, i think (what is really AWESOME about him..) i love that about him. 💜💜
i also Love a lot the fact, how he can in just a few seconds catpure a persons heart+mind and how he usually makes/turnes a "usual performance" into a "stadion concert" in no time - in every show he is invited - just like this, like when you snap with your finger or .....within "a wink of an eye" and BAAAM.. he gets the ppl , like no other i would know! hehe...
(or..lets say ... like very rare amount of ppl i do know, who are so amazing and do so!)🤭🤭

dont miss it - bcos not only 1 talent is standing there singing his own song with a smirk on his face + surrounded by all this talented voices - nope - it also happen that there is (especially this guy) so many more talent to see and to hear in this video! - ENJOY!! bcos:

Heartfelt on so many levels! ❤❤❤
his new song mad house is so amazing hope can watch more ur videos about him pls ~~~
Was waiting on your reaction to this performance. It really showcased his creative genius talent in rearranging and composing and the style he chose to do it in. On top of that stellar poignant performance. Guarantee all his performances on the Next for both seasons, Ace vs Ace, The Coming One, Singer is something to look forward to. Known to many as King of stage performer.
You really feel music and this is a specially emotional song, or rather stoytelling. Hua Chenyu is always true in whatever he does, and so are your comments. Thank you
Such a sensitive reaction. A difficult subject dealt with by a gentle white heart such as yours. Blessings and Peace.
Any time I want to get my emotions out I have a drink, watch reactions to this song, and have a cry.
Backstory on this competition and the performance:
The guy in white at the end, who was emotional, is the one who challenged Hua and gave him Dad, I'm Home. Hua had 24 hours to rearrange it. He took a rap song and turned it into an anthem about domestic violence. The guy in white was so emotional it messed up his following performance, and Hua won. No, it isn't Hua's story, but it IS many thousands of others' stories.
Up next for you will likely be "Child", what many consider his best song. He has did two duets with Juno Su, "Nanping Evening Bell", which is a stunningly beautiful song, and "Perhaps Love", which came after Nanping.
Thank you for your heartfelt reaction, it isn't your typical song. The first time I heard Dad, I sat there for 10 minutes, very emotional, trying to process what I had heard. Thank you again.
I've always felt very sorry for that young man. I think he chose the song to throw Hua Hua off but I think there might have been some deep seated personal angst that made him choose this song. In the end it backfired on him as it exposed his own pain. How does one follow this type of performance? He was so distraught. Poor boy
Thanks so much for the info. Hard to believe he didn't write it with how well he portrays it !!
We really LOVE him 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks Caleb, love your Dimash & Hua Chenyu reactions! - @dimash_huachenyu_fans
This your 3rd reactions , different songs different styles and performances. Thanks for sharing. Really love his songs.
I had a similar heart reaction to this video. When I learned that this was a reinterpretation of a rap and not at all similar to this young man's upbringing, I was torn. First, I was impressed with his acting and interpretting, but also I felt somewhat duped. He was so believable. Yes, this could help others. This is a beautifully tragic performance.
Hard to believe! Although I heard he tapped into his own experience to portray the song. But yes hard to believe he didn't write it.
Actually, he re-arranged this song in this way to help people pay attention to this important issue. You can watch his Story behind Song Arrangements 2017 interview about his adaptation for the Next show. ua-cam.com/video/dfgHqPU6PIY/v-deo.html You can also get a glimpse of his personality. He is just such a fun, wise and talented person.
@@CalebColesMusic I did read that in the comments, as well.
Hi Caleb, what others have already mentioned, not his story but an incredible performance by such a talented artist, this story is very close to home for me as I suffered growing up in that exact situation, I have watched it many times and I am a blubbering mess every time but on a good note it has actually freed me from some hidden feelings from my past, powerful indeed! Thanks or your reaction.
That would have been so hard. I am glad this song has helped that processes though. Thank for you comment. It was an incredible performance 😊
Amazing Hua😍😘
Hi Caleb!!
Hua chenyu had sang a new song composed by him called on his concert.That one was EPIC!So Fresh,so unique .(That is also become my favourite song now!)However it had not been translated yet.I hope one day in the future，i could see your reaction to that one,that would be awesome!☺️☺️Thank you！！（btw,your cover of screaming is sooo great!!)
Thanks for your reaction 🌼🌼❤️❤️
👍 🌹 🌹 thanks for your reaction
Хуа, очень талантливый певец и композитор. Эта композиция такая трогательная и глубокая! Спасибо за реакцию!
Можно спросить:не будете ли Вы делать реакцию на выступление Димаша Кудайбергена, на фестивале в Японии 19.11.2019г. Мне нравятся Ваши вдумчивые и глубокие реакции.
I cry every time I see this video. My favorite song of his is Child. If you could react to that it would be great!
Thanks I will react to it 😁

ua-cam.com/video/s14WlqrOTF8/v-deo.html
....such an emotional and heartbreaking story and song, but as far as I have been reading about that performance, it isn't his own story! ( very sorry don't mean to spoil you great comments in your reaction! 🙏 ...and I can read others have brought subject to you attension before me : ) )
The fact that he can performe in such a way that you as a listener believe it is his own story...tells a whole lot about his artistic skill and way of telling a story! Such an incredible one...don't believe I have ever seen such performance before! Love Hua Chenyu's vocie!
Yeah so hard to believe he didn't write it with how emotional and personal his performance is. 😊
Me encanta hua chenyu.. 💕 💕
I have subscribed. Good reaction. I love Hua Hua. He is absolutely a genius.
You can listen to Wayfarer by Hua Chen Yu.
Hua Chen Yu is preforming in Singer 2020, most of the songs are composed by himself, and it is on UA-cam, could you please react to his songs
My dad had never drunk alcoholics. Only new Year or so. But my childhood was not easy. He is a strict man, he beated me, my siblings and my mom. Sometimes with a leather belt, sometimes with his hand. It was a hard time. But I have also very good memorys with him and many things I forgave him. Not all, you know, but many. I totally FEEL the pain in the song and if you know, that chinese people don't show their emotions in public, its even more expressive.
Like many have said it’s not his own story, but the guy in the white that was kinda crying/tearing up was actually the guy who challenged Hua to rearrange the song that was originally an old rap song. But that’s even more amazing as an artists to be able to perform this kind of song as if it was his own story. Idk if u would be intrested in reacting to Hua Chenyu’s song Cancer it’s a song with no lyrics just sounds it’s very uneasy and uncomfortable but that’s actually the point of it. It’s supposed to display the disease Cancer and how it grows scarier and scarier.
This is late but Hua has a complicated past. He was alone a lot, his parents divorced when he was young.
Hua’s musical journey is rather long. He won a competition called Super Boy at 23. (He still does some of the songs from 2013! He has rearranged them and his voice is better bit then he will be 30 on 2/7)
His first version of this song has no talking. His IS a Performance Artist. (His fiber of CREEP in 2013 and a few years later are different but very emotional like this song)
So if you have the time, look at previous performances and at 24 wrote Quasimodo’s Gift which is very complex and a beautiful and sad song from Victor Hugo’s Hunchback of Nôtre Dame. (Hua is well read in classics and classical music, plays many Instruments & the flute since he was 6.
The Mars Concerts: there are more than one, each one is different and not just the music, he designs the sets s and staging,
It is worth checking out Hua English Subs and watch his Mars Concerts and see this Genius control, in some concerts, 90,000 each Concert. I watch videos and his music touches my soul.
He does do more than one style of music in some songs.
Nunchucks was a “female voice” from Chinese Opera. Party of the reason he sings from the front of his mouth is the Mandarin Dialect. He does use his voice as an instrument and the words translated from Chinese to English are very lyrical.
There is an older song GIANT DEER, very ethereal and the opposite of I DON’T CARE or ALIENS & more.
Thank you for your reactions and he wrote 5 new songs in 2019. He was talking about depression and to help people who might need help not to turn away,
He is on THE SINGER 2020 & a show called ACE vs ACE - comedy. Then a Mars Concert (s) in the late Spring.
I dont think we can react to his new songs till it all has subtitles. I'd like to see you do cancer. the new songs are in progress of being translated .... ;) theres so many to do a song analysis. You will be amazed with his new songs. He has taken it to the next level
Thanks, I look forward to reacting to it !!
Caleb Coles Music Check the Hua Chenyu English Sub～They got a lot of translation withHua's songs.
Will you be reacting to more of his songs? He has so much more to discover
dude, go check out the newest video from his 2019 mars concert, it is amazing.
Believe it or not. This is originally a rap song that he rearranged in less than 24h and made it sound like that
That wasn’t his story. He was just showing the audience how u can cge a song to make it your own...it doesn’t always have to b singing, it can just b a narration
They have this tv show in China where the artists have 24 hrs to interpret a song and give it their own cover. (I think it’s just 24 hrs. He did say in one vid I watched that he was able to do this interpretation in just 24hrs). This was the result of his choice of songs.
Having said that. He did have a very lonely childhood. His parents spilt, his dad worked away fr home a lot, so he became very introverted, had NO clue how to interact w/other people. It wasn’t until he was in university that he learnt how to act in social settings. His music teacher took him under her wing. He was CLUELESS on his to get along w/other people.
Because of his loneliness growing up he went into a very dark place and he attributes this time period a place of discovery....his luv of music ..,may be it dark at times but it gave him an outlet.
Up until he won the Superboy contest in 2013 his father had NEVER given him any compliments or encouragement...Hua was 23 at this point...he asked his dad why he raised him that way and his dad told him that he wanted him to b able to rely totally on himself for any thing that was to come his way. He did not want Hua to go thru life seeking approval fr other people. He wanted him to b self sufficient in all things.
(They have a wonderful relationship now.)
It wasn’t until Hua’s little sister was born did he get 2 experience any type of childhood. He then saw his father become a dad.
The nice thing is Hua never resented or was jealous of his sister. He embraced it wholeheartedly and got to enjoy a childhood he never had. (He was. a young adult by the time his sister was born).
I personally loved his interpretation of the song
Fr across the waters

🐥🐥🐥hugs and all that jazz
hi Сaleb! this song is very sad heavy.you had a bewildered and sad face.very sad composition.
Yes, very sad 😢
Despite raving positive reviews, Huahua received a lot of criticism for this performance from ppl who criticised that this is not considered as "singing".
One of Huahua's vision as a musician, he hopes to expose and broaden people's horizon in music, thus all these different styles of performance and music genre in his music and "experimental" style in this and "fake monk".
Great attention to comment bring people's attention to some serious matter of domestic violence. This was a song from Jay Chou (extremely famous chinese singer songwriter) which is done in typical Jay rap style (here is the original). This video which you did a reaction is from a show called The Next which no name singers compete against 4 host well established famous singers. It's a one on one battle where the song list is randomly chosen by fans and then the challenger chooses the song for the host singer and the two singers (which have individual song) have 24hrs to rearrange and perform, really a great show and actually showcases off Hua Chenyu's insane brilliance and talent. Also which part of Australia you from mate?
Such an intense story! I lived most of my life in Sydney but I am living in Port Stephens now 😊
really like your Channel .... thanks a lot... appreciate it. all the best for you Sir.
beautiful face---so expressive
FUN FACTS: Huahua didn't believe fans that it's difficult to buy his concert ticket, so he tried to buy his own concert ticket this yr, he failed. To keep trying, his 1 day concert kept adding to 3 days, but he failed all 3 times and had to keep his promise to shave his head, even though he's just gotten a hair product advertise and just about 3 weeks before his concert which he's supposed to look nice (anyway he still looks nice, see it for yourself). BUT WORSE! He even lost to his fans in getting hotel room where his concert was held?!? LOL!!
Here's his new song at his Nov 2019 concert which I love very much, song name: "Madhouse", pls react to it. ua-cam.com/video/ExixbD6BD9w/v-deo.html In the concert he mentioned that people with depression actually "fear" that others think they are fine and doing alright which deep down they actually are not, so he urged everyone to be more mindful of people around us and give them
loving care. This is so true. And he's so sweet, kind and spiritual, apart from all his talents! 🌸🌸🥰
Please react he new song ! "Really want to love this world" !! IT'S REALLY AWSOMEE
For what I’ve read, the guy with white shirt was the writer of this song, and rearranged by Hua Chenyu. I love him too!
No, this song was written by Jay Chou actually :v
Carly Lombard I’m sorry, now I know. Thank you for the correction!
I really think you should react to his songs in “the singer 2018” to see his different sides. Specially I like “Child”. And also I really recommend his new song he composed “ seven personalities”. A bit early for you to react to that song when you haven’t heard much from him. But I think as a singer and composed, you can definitely feel his art level and his talent. Really out of this world as I think because I haven’t seen anything like that before. This the link of “seven personalities” m.ua-cam.com/video/Knl3BuQdyjM/v-deo.html
The 2019 Mars concert is really genius and brilliant. Hua released 5 new songs at the concert.
3 of them are a trilogy. Would you please react to the first one next. Hua said It's for people who have depression.

2nd "Mad House"

Hua was not through this. The song is a cover. It just shows how well he immerses into a song when he performs it. Hua had a lonely childhood and he agonizes through it in Fake Monk. Here is the link to his story followed by the song: ua-cam.com/video/txVJPrWYetg/v-deo.html It makes the song so much more understandable. I hard that the wailing is supposed to represent Hua crying. After that we can get away from the sad and watch PERHAPS LOVE a lovely duet with Juno.
Hope more understand what this song means to those being hurt and pls think before u want to Attack the defensive ones
Please please please react to his 4 new songs called The Sacred Tree, Really want to love this world, Madhouse and Seven Personalities. They are really awesome. I swear you will be surprised!!
hi mr. coles! I really love your reaction for every video that you make. I hope you'll do a reaction video of Morisette Amon's "Naririnig mo ba" live on wish bus. Thank you so much😇

Thanks :)
It is very misleading if, for a person reacting to the song, to have not done enough research to know that this wasn't his own song (and he's doing a cover; you can check out the outlines of the variety show) and to say that it was his childhood. Very misleading to people who didn't know the truth. Even though other people wrote in the comments "It is not his story", not everyone who watches your video read the comments. Got it? I am a fan of Hua Chen Yu for a couple years now, and if you are doing a reaction video of him, then do your research. Because you are doing the reaction video and being sorry for Hua Chen Yu.
And, on the other hand, you don't need to be sorry for anyone. I don't understand this American thing that when you hear other people's sad stories you have to say "I am sorry". No, you are not sorry. In fact, you might not be able to relate at all.
You can't relate, then walk away. I am much better now than my past so you don't need to be sorry at all.
Fantastic reaction as always, please Caleb reacts to Kim Jin ho singing "family portrait", this is the link
