Yeah it's really inspiring how they are so much like a close family and the fact they guessed what happened without even Unique to say a single word is everything
When Unique was singing the line “But you’re just a boy, you don’t understand” at 2:48 it’s like she was talking to all the boys in that room, they were all on one side
Question nobody's answers is why is it OK to identify as opposite sex but not a different race. 🤔 I'm white straight male. Why can't I be a black woman?
@@mcdo724 because sex isn't something that you identify as, gender is. Sex is your biological makeup, gender is a social construct but is something people self-identify
For all its faults, Glee did an amazing job at taking existing songs and using them in a completely different context to evoke a new emotional response.
YES, that's what makes me love Glee. They stick up for each other when things get really rough. In S1 for Rachel when VA egged her. In S2 for Kurt when Karofsky was bullying him and when the entire football team slushied Artie. They're like a real family.
My favorite fucking scene was when he stood up and said "Thank god. You know how hard it is to sit and hear and be told hit it and you dont know if it's the right song" or something like that.
I love this cover it gives the song a while new meaning and you can feel and see the emotion I couldn't imagine going to school everyday and dealing with that
@Caitlyn Wells So.....what was the point in your comment? Are you some sort of anti-joke "activist" or something? Cause your comment here was a huge waste of your time.
@Caitlyn Wells Just because you know one or two people who are trans in no way means that you know our plight. In all honesty, I get you have good intentions, but doing things like making a snarky comment reply to a JOKE just makes the trans community look even worse and I really am tired of people who are not even trans making the entire community look like crybabies that find offense with anything and everything. Also, if you found my comment rude, then you must be one extremely fragile and sensitive person cause no rudeness was present in that comment of mine.
People shouldn't have to deal with stuff like this. People need to get over their bullshit and let people live the way they want. People should feel comfortable with their own bodies and be able to live free and be themselves enough in the world!
Abby McDearmid true very true but there r to many dumbass people in this world who have nothing better to do then point out someone's imperfections. If there gay transgender bie pan lesbian or what ever they are they get picked on for being them selves if there not them selves it eats at them for years to come and it so stupid I know what it is liked to be bullied for being gay and it will kill u if u get bullied for being you self
I don’t understand how anyone could watch something as emotional as this scene...see the heartbreak and hear the pain in Unique’s voice...and still be anything other than moved and completely supportive. How anyone could just completely ignore the desperate call for love and acceptance from another human being is beyond anything that I will ever be able to understand. I hope that every person who has ever gone through anything like this is able to find happiness, because they are valid and deserve to be loved. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.
I feel the same way, because I am an bisexual trans woman with Down syndrome. My dad had called me, and other trans women an she he, and ignored my, and other trans women’s feelings, and he harbors no shame about it.
That's where kids would sneak in ad do the drugs, tho. A few people can ruin it for those who need it. But really, if there was an actual issue at my school, teachers would just let certain kids use the teacher restroom. 🤷♀️
My high school only had 1 set of gendered toilets the rest of the school was unisex toilets and every time I tell people (particularly older people) they get all whaaat but what about this this and this and I’m like no in all the years before I was there the years I was there and the years since there has never been a single issue with them at first I thought it was weird but by like a month in the idea of gendering toilets seemed idiotic like we all pee we all poop that’s what toilets are for it literally doesn’t matter
Wit Beyond Measure We’re they single stall unisex bathrooms? I don’t think it would be legal in most states to have a bathroom with boys and girls in there at the same time. I would actually feel really awkward if we all were in one bathroom I’m just shy I guess.
It's so lovely that Sam, Jake and Ryder had her back they love unique for who she is, and the vulnerability in her voice is so beautiful it shows that you don't need power to be an amazing singer
Although Glee was chaotic and could be a disaster sometimes, it gave us scenes like this. The ones I can come back to and cry to when I need someone to relate to and nobody in reality will listen to me. I love this show so much for that❤
Everyone who have never seen Glee: “It’s all stupid musicals!” The diehard fans: “No, it’s not just about the music. It is about life and how music relates to it, can even save your life in the end.” *This proves my point.*
My sister before glee: Depressed, glee is stupid, glee is gay, glee is just some highschool muical remake My sister After glee: cured depression, cant stop watching, adicted, loves it, wrote down all the song that where in glee Me in the corner: lol
Um no. Watch that episode properly. Will was helping Unique. The 'use the faculty bathroom' was his idea in the first place. If Will didn't follow Sue's deal, Unique just wouldn't get a key of her own. She could've always used Will's key. Will had literally told her that 'whenever nature calls you find me' or something like that. He was ready to escort her to the bathroom everytime. How is that not helping Unique? Hating Will Schuester is so trendy now people choose to ignore canon material from the show to further their biases
I'm trans and it got so bad at my school that I stopped going and ended up getting homeschooled. People can be so mean sometimes. But hey, that's life for you.
Angel Scinta well that’s just not true, if he feels like a boy he’s a boy. It’s interesting to me that your bio says pro life ya know these are contradicting opinions
Teenage Girl your gender has nothing to do with your feelings. It's in the chromosomes and between the legs not between the ears if you were born with a dick and balls you're a boy not girl and that's that if you were born with a pussy and a uterus along with phelopian tubes and ovaries you're not a boy you're a girl. If he was found dead his autopsy report would come back as male not female he's a boy.
"We need some names!" "Yeah, some people need to get their asses kicked to learn not to mess with you anymore." That is me and my friends RIGHT THERE! If someone hurts our friends we want to fix it! I love this cover and scene it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
I deal with this every day people just don't accept us for who we are and it really hurts and this song really spoke to me in a brand new meaning while also sounding beautiful
joseph zambrana i know this doesnt mean much cause you and i dont know each other.... but i support you...you will find people who support you near you and they will be your bestest friends and will stick up for you.... you an amazing person .... thr people who taunt you.... they are just jealous .... theyvare jealous that you can be yourself with no shame.... please dont stop fighting you have allies everywhere you just gotta look❤❤
Jees, it's like nobody can ever be different, we should all be the same so that we could be considered "normal people" and not be bullied or criticized by the society. Now that is how messed the world is.
As a trans person this means so much to me. We see trans people wishing we were born in the body we wanted but you hardly see representation for begging in the middle of the night to whatever god will listen to make us cis so we wouldn’t have to go through this
The 12 year old child of a friend is transgender. She gets nothing but support from me. Would that all of her family could be half as understanding and accepting.
Mr. Schue used to irritate me with that whole “non violence” stance. Like okay my guy, but sometimes you gotta talk to people from their comprehension level for them to understand. And if that means giving an a** whoopin here and there...so be it.
Cherise Davidson True I think those guys did deserve an ass kicking but remember Mr. Schue is a teacher and can’t condone/encourage violence. Also Unique was right it would have made those guys target her even more and if they got their ass kicked they would probably get violent with her in the future. Violence isn’t always the answer although it’s tempting.
Nope. They are kids. Its the parents job to do so. And they dont even need to understand, they just should ignore that person than or look over this one fact that is weird in their opinion. An old classmate of mine didnt like gay men, they didnt understood it and found it disgusting. (He said that to me because of a conversation about it) We had a gay boy in a class and he was really stereotypical gay. They never had any problem with each other, greeted another and yeah that was it. Everything was fine...
Ikr like could you imagine if someone was beating up unique and then what must she do Mr Schue? Just be peaceful? God sometimes Mr Schue was such a douche
I don't understand why people are so mean. Just let people be who they are and be happy. They are not hurting anyone and who they are doesn't effect you.
It's nice that they stand up for Unique but let's not go overboard in handing out role model status to Unique cause homegirl was faaaaar from a role model. Remember the catfishing?
That's beautiful! Sam stood up because he doesn't want anyone to go through that just like Kurt did. Loved how Jake and Ryder stood up too and asked for names and said people need to have their ass kicked!! People do need to learn bullying does hurt people in mentally and physically ways.
I love how all the guys are totally behind her. Even Ryder who was catfished by her. The emotion, just I'm crying just because you don't like someone's decision doesn't meant you need to be an absolute ass. Her wig omg that probably cost a fortune. The emotion and ND s reaction is beautiful.
My question. why does it matter to some people what other people are doing in the bathroom? like if you're so concerned about what's goin on in the next stall over, sounds to me like you're the one with the problem
The only problem with letting whoever go into whatever bathroom, creepy dudes can simply say "oh im a girl" and go into the women's bathroom which understandably makes most girls feel uncomfortable.
@@Scarlett_Robe The thing is, if we openly allow transgenders to go in whatever bathroom, it just makes it easier for those creepy guys to get what they want.
Ellebelle we’re not letting “transgenders go in whatever bathroom they want” we’re letting them go in the bathroom of their gender which isnt a problem for a cisgendered person so it shouldn’t be a problem for them. if they’re a trans boy then they’re a boy, if they’re a trans girl they are a girl and they shouldn’t be treated any differently. and these changes arent going to further enable creepy men or women (people tend to forget that women can also do this type of stuff) from going into the opposite genders bathroom. if they are really that creepy and perverted then they would probably have done/ been doing it anyways.
OMG I just LOVE this scene it just proves of how loyal she can be unlike those ruthless boys. she/he I will go she is one of my fav seeing this makes me cry such a powerful scene
I was thinking about that too! (in general though) I was thinking about how those guys stood up for Unique, that it was something the guys in glee club have been doing all along for their fellow glee clubbers. I thought about Rachel getting egged in S1, Kurt being bullied by Karofsky in S2 en Artie being slushied by the entire football team in S2.
I just wanted to say to all the people getting hurt, bullied, and in emotional pain. You are an amazing person, the moment you let anyone tell you different is when you let those sorry people win. You are such a wonderful fantastic human being. I would be honored to be any of your friends. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
unique was definitely my fave from the newer batch and i would always anticipate her performances cause her voice was out of this world ❤️ she deserved more than just being a stereotypical sassy best friend and a catfisher
"If I Were A Boy" If I were a boy Even just for a day I'd roll outta bed in the morning And throw on what I wanted and go Drink beer with the guys And chase after girls I'd kick it with who I wanted And I'd never get confronted for it 'Cause they'd stick up for me If I were a boy I think I could understand How it feels to love a girl I swear I'd be a better man I'd listen to her 'Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted 'Cause he's taken you for granted And everything you had got destroyed If I were a boy I would turn off my phone Tell everyone it's broken So they'd think that I was sleepin' alone I'd put myself first And make the rules as I go 'Cause I know that she'd be faithful Waitin' for me to come home (to come home) If I were a boy I think I could understand How it feels to love a girl I swear I'd be a better man I'd listen to her 'Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted (wanted) 'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted) And everything you had got destroyed It's a little too late for you to come back Say it's just a mistake Think I'd forgive you like that If you thought I would wait for you You thought wrong But you're just a boy You don't understand Yeah, you don't understand, oh How it feels to love a girl someday You wish you were a better man You don't listen to her You don't care how it hurts Until you lose the one you wanted 'Cause you've taken her for granted And everything you had got destroyed But you're just a boy
Alex Newell is one of the absolute best new artists. I am so happy they got cast on Glee - and their success since has been remarkable. Really proud and so happy for them!
Truly amazing talent. For all the problems people had with varying aspects of Glee, it was such a gift. As a Gen Xer, we would never has seen anything like this on tv, representing teenagers. People always talk about the problematic stuff, like "well we could never make this movie/show/book now" well I can't imagine anyone making Glee on network television now, not with the current atmosphere as they try and drag us back into the dark ages.
I am always so moved at how they completely changed the meaning of the song. Unique is literally saying if i were a boy life would be easier. but i'm not supposed to be a boy. Brings me to tears everytime
@@emmasmith3014 ah of course ok. Wade is a very shy and uncomfortable individual however when he dresses up as Unique (his alter ego if you like) He becomes confident and strong. Unique is a She and she loves this side of herself but in this society she is not able to act on it. The world only looks at him as a boy. but that is not how he best sees himself. His best self is Unique. 🥰
therefore from the singers view, this is a message to the world that they don't feel like a Boy 2:46 "You're just a Boy.. You dont understand". Whereas Beyonce's intention was to point out how men take women for granted
Everyone says glee is just a show tune music show which sucks That’s what I thought even though I’m a die hard theatre kid, thought it was annoying I looked into glee, and glee made me realize so many things, about being faithful to yourself, not giving up, becoming stronger, having courage and standing up to people Glee faced so many issues in society, and gave solutions to many problems, glee honestly is one of the top tv shows, as well as being ridiculously hilarious, it’s honestly incredible
I were a boy Even just for a day I’d roll outta bed in the morning And throw on what I wanted and go Drink beer with the guys And chase after girls I’d kick it with who I wanted And I’d never get confronted for it. 'Cause they’d stick up for me. [Chorus] If I were a boy I think I could understand How it feels to love a girl I swear I’d be a better man. I’d listen to her 'Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted 'Cause he’s taken you for granted And everything you had got destroyed [Verse] If I were a boy I would turn off my phone Tell everyone it’s broken So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone I’d put myself first And make the rules as I go 'Cause I know that she’d be faithful Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home) [Chorus] If I were a boy I think I could understand How it feels to love a girl I swear I’d be a better man. I’d listen to her 'Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted (wanted) 'Cause he’s taken you for granted (granted) And everything you had got destroyed [Bridge] It’s a little too late for you to come back Say it's just a mistake Think I’d forgive you like that If you thought I would wait for you You thought wrong [Chorus 2] But you’re just a boy You don’t understand Yeah, you don’t understand, oh How it feels to love a girl someday You wish you were a better man You don’t listen to her You don’t care how it hurts Until you lose the one you wanted 'Cause you’ve taken her for granted And everything you had got destroyed But you’re just a boy
I don't think like he was a complete homophobe, like in the beggining YES, he was, but as the show went on he really evolved and tried to understand Unique's truth, like in this scene when he kind of realised how that affected a person close to him, and stud for her, over his own conception/prejudice
With Ryder it was ignorance but as he knew her more he saw how much struggles and pain she has just trying to be her self that would change most people to see what's right ..x x
You know, people can learn and grow. They can change. I didn’t remotely understand what being Trans was like until my best friend came out. I was ignorant. I made the jokes. Then I decided that being ignorant wasn’t how I wanted to be. Stop immediately excluding people because of how they were. Educate, include. Prove that the idea of equality and acceptance isn’t a damn platitude.
in my feels rn this is bull no one should be treated like this. I love how this show covers so much that is happening in todays society. Absolutely beautiful. Remember you are beautiful and amazing just the way you are, dont let ANYONE tell you otherwise. ❤️
I can feel how she's feeling because i'm also one of the person that got bullied just because i'm different (feminine male and come from a poor family since born till now). I don't know how much tears i've been crying out, the loneliness inside, I thank Jesus for loving me unconditionally and giving me strengh to live my life till now. This is the only thing that i have in life "thankful and keep going". It encourages me to live my life until i reach the finish line of life. Be brave, be strong, be thankful and be you. 💚
It’s February 2020 and I’m sitting here watching this like it just dropped today. GLEE was everything. Those two deaths hurt like hell, so a reboot will never be possible. Gonna get all seasons and binge over spring break.❤️

This is hands down one of the most bristling and powerful performances ever on the show. They deserved an award for this brilliant performance!!
I'm trans and it got so bad at my school that I stopped going and ended up getting homeschooled. People can be so mean sometimes. But hey, that's life for you.
Honestly same here😪 Things have gotten better for me though. I hope it does for you as well
I am so sorry
I had to move schools because of it
I hope it's better for you
I'm sorry you had to deal with it. I struggle with being myself at school
King Of Cowards hey, what’s your dc? I’d love to talk to you sometime
This made me realize that Glee has Gay,Trans,Bisexual,Black,White and Tina
Hahaha love it
Lesbian
It has everything.. anyone can relate... That is why I think glee is soooo underappreciated
@Music Lover hehehe 😂
Wait, who's bi??
Glee was ahead of the curve on so many levels. Alex has such a beautiful voice.
That "we need some names" had me 😭😭😭😭😭😭 THAT'S SO SWEET

I'm trans myself and I would not hold back on the boys that hurt her, she deserves be treated with respected.
Right with you!
Aphmau on ur pp?
Yes
Angel Scinta well that’s just not true, if he feels like a boy he’s a boy. It’s interesting to me that your bio says pro life ya know these are contradicting opinions
Teenage Girl your gender has nothing to do with your feelings. It's in the chromosomes and between the legs not between the ears if you were born with a dick and balls you're a boy not girl and that's that if you were born with a pussy and a uterus along with phelopian tubes and ovaries you're not a boy you're a girl. If he was found dead his autopsy report would come back as male not female he's a boy.
This song still moves me to this day. You can feel the pain through the emotional performance. She is an amazing preformer.

"We need some names!"
"Yeah, some people need to get their asses kicked to learn not to mess with you anymore."
That is me and my friends RIGHT THERE! If someone hurts our friends we want to fix it! I love this cover and scene it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!
I wish i had friends like you. You seem really nice
I deal with this every day people just don't accept us for who we are and it really hurts and this song really spoke to me in a brand new meaning while also sounding beautiful
I'm with you on that one too but stay strong friend who knows who you could be and what you could accomplish some day
Bless your heart and soul😢😞😭
joseph zambrana i know this doesnt mean much cause you and i dont know each other.... but i support you...you will find people who support you near you and they will be your bestest friends and will stick up for you.... you an amazing person .... thr people who taunt you.... they are just jealous .... theyvare jealous that you can be yourself with no shame.... please dont stop fighting you have allies everywhere you just gotta look❤❤
Jees, it's like nobody can ever be different, we should all be the same so that we could be considered "normal people" and not be bullied or criticized by the society. Now that is how messed the world is.

2020 and I can't still 4get this scene
Ienzo sameeee

I'm in tears now, I love this scene so much, this cover is better than the original.
Inès G. Yes i agree and it is so heart touching
ummm y'all reaching
but this is good
Inès G. I agree but for her herself,she is a boy tho
Inès G. No offense intended
As a trans person this means so much to me. We see trans people wishing we were born in the body we wanted but you hardly see representation for begging in the middle of the night to whatever god will listen to make us cis so we wouldn’t have to go through this
I'm a Transgender too and I know that feels too cause boys harassed me in a bathroom for it too
The 12 year old child of a friend is transgender. She gets nothing but support from me. Would that all of her family could be half as understanding and accepting.
Mr. Schue used to irritate me with that whole “non violence” stance. Like okay my guy, but sometimes you gotta talk to people from their comprehension level for them to understand. And if that means giving an a** whoopin here and there...so be it.
Cherise Davidson True I think those guys did deserve an ass kicking but remember Mr. Schue is a teacher and can’t condone/encourage violence. Also Unique was right it would have made those guys target her even more and if they got their ass kicked they would probably get violent with her in the future. Violence isn’t always the answer although it’s tempting.
Except Mr. Schue is a teacher... teachers can't condone or support violence not even in the case of bullying.
Nope. They are kids.
Its the parents job to do so.
And they dont even need to understand, they just should ignore that person than or look over this one fact that is weird in their opinion.
An old classmate of mine didnt like gay men, they didnt understood it and found it disgusting.
(He said that to me because of a conversation about it)
We had a gay boy in a class and he was really stereotypical gay.
They never had any problem with each other, greeted another and yeah that was it.
Everything was fine...
Ikr like could you imagine if someone was beating up unique and then what must she do Mr Schue? Just be peaceful? God sometimes Mr Schue was such a douche
I AGREE GIV THOSE BASTARDS HE BIGGEST A** WHOOPING OF A LIFE TIME THAT TEACH NOT TO MESS WITH THE GLEE CLUB
Disgusting... that guy who came out of the stall didn’t wash his hands
BAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Coronavirus!
Right??!! That's a huge pet peeve of mine

I don't understand why people are so mean. Just let people be who they are and be happy. They are not hurting anyone and who they are doesn't effect you.
Nobody:
Camera dude: KITTY AND ARTIE ARE HOLDING HANDS
Suçons it’s crazy to me how I always read comments after I watch a specific part in the video I WAS JUST ON THAT PART HOW THE HECK
Suçons I see it too.
May I remind they were dating at this time of the series?
They should have end up together.
Emanuel M I read it and it happens as soon as J finished reading it😂😂
I love how everyone just sticks up for unique!!! I think that unique is a role model on this show and is a QUEEN!!!!!
It's nice that they stand up for Unique but let's not go overboard in handing out role model status to Unique cause homegirl was faaaaar from a role model. Remember the catfishing?
"We need names. " The song made them sad and angry. Made them feel things. NIiiCE

This scene is even more relevant today than it was back then😪
No, it isnt.
@@ItsLunaRegina yes it is
@@staria1591 Just because you convince yourself it is doesn't mean it is.
@@ItsLunaRegina exactly, so why did you reply to their comment and say "no it isnt"
@@staria1591 Keep living in your fantasy world if you wish, doesnt mean the rest of us have to.
That's beautiful! Sam stood up because he doesn't want anyone to go through that just like Kurt did. Loved how Jake and Ryder stood up too and asked for names and said people need to have their ass kicked!! People do need to learn bullying does hurt people in mentally and physically ways.
I love how all the guys are totally behind her. Even Ryder who was catfished by her. The emotion, just I'm crying just because you don't like someone's decision doesn't meant you need to be an absolute ass. Her wig omg that probably cost a fortune. The emotion and ND s reaction is beautiful.
Ikr. Just because you can't agree doesn't mean you have to be an ass about it.
My question.
why does it matter to some people what other people are doing in the bathroom?
like if you're so concerned about what's goin on in the next stall over, sounds to me like you're the one with the problem
Full Moon Lover preach hon
The only problem with letting whoever go into whatever bathroom, creepy dudes can simply say "oh im a girl" and go into the women's bathroom which understandably makes most girls feel uncomfortable.
@@okkk2684 if someones a creepy dude, i think they'd do something regardless of societal shift regarding bathrooms 🤷♀️
@@Scarlett_Robe The thing is, if we openly allow transgenders to go in whatever bathroom, it just makes it easier for those creepy guys to get what they want.
Ellebelle we’re not letting “transgenders go in whatever bathroom they want” we’re letting them go in the bathroom of their gender which isnt a problem for a cisgendered person so it shouldn’t be a problem for them. if they’re a trans boy then they’re a boy, if they’re a trans girl they are a girl and they shouldn’t be treated any differently. and these changes arent going to further enable creepy men or women (people tend to forget that women can also do this type of stuff) from going into the opposite genders bathroom. if they are really that creepy and perverted then they would probably have done/ been doing it anyways.
True fact: i watched all 6 seasons back to back on Netflix this my show

You don't have to say "true" if it's a FACT
If finn was alive at that point in the show he wouldn't let that slide at all. He would bring justice for unique
This song give me CHILLS every. Single. Time.

This scene gave this song a whole new meaning, wow
OMG I just LOVE this scene it just proves of how loyal she can be unlike those ruthless boys. she/he I will go she is one of my fav seeing this makes me cry such a powerful scene
She
this scene makes me cry every time...
Am I the only one who finds this more emotional than the original? Such a beautiful yet heartbreaking interpretation of the lyrics.
So Powerful👏She delivered the message song better than the original one.
Maria Nhicole Ramos OH NO..
Maria Nhicole Ramos no they have different messages
When jake defends unique saying we need names it reminds me of noah when rachel got egged by jesse 💓💓💓😍
I was thinking about that too! (in general though) I was thinking about how those guys stood up for Unique, that it was something the guys in glee club have been doing all along for their fellow glee clubbers. I thought about Rachel getting egged in S1, Kurt being bullied by Karofsky in S2 en Artie being slushied by the entire football team in S2.
Not me forgetting who Noah is

@@endercupid Noah is Puck ,Noah Puckerman
Unique was the BEST character on Glee and you cannot change my mind. She was inspirational, informative, sweet, hilarious and SO SO SO TALENTED!!!
I just wanted to say to all the people getting hurt, bullied, and in emotional pain. You are an amazing person, the moment you let anyone tell you different is when you let those sorry people win. You are such a wonderful fantastic human being. I would be honored to be any of your friends. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
You are so lovely thank you❤
You are a beautiful soul. Thank you! 💛
*its 2020 boys, time to rewatch the whole glee seasons*

unique was definitely my fave from the newer batch and i would always anticipate her performances cause her voice was out of this world ❤️
she deserved more than just being a stereotypical sassy best friend and a catfisher

I cry every time I watch this. Alex's vocals ,and soul ,and feelings are just perfection❤
i'm not crying, it's just a truck in my eye
That’s one small leaky truck
Seems legit
The feels, oh god the feels
This is so soft and tender, yet powerful. So beautifully done.
"If I Were A Boy"
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they'd stick up for me
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken
So they'd think that I was sleepin' alone
I'd put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'd be faithful
Waitin' for me to come home (to come home)
If I were a boy
I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I'd be a better man
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted (wanted)
'Cause he's taken you for granted (granted)
And everything you had got destroyed
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake
Think I'd forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
But you're just a boy
You don't understand
Yeah, you don't understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl someday
You wish you were a better man
You don't listen to her
You don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
After 9 months, I'm your first reply, congrats and thank you for the lyrics

I can relate to her pain and people are not suppose to live like that people just need to grow up
Alex Newell is one of the absolute best new artists. I am so happy they got cast on Glee - and their success since has been remarkable. Really proud and so happy for them!
"We need some names" ❤
This scene broke my heart
Pippa Boyers same
Truly amazing talent. For all the problems people had with varying aspects of Glee, it was such a gift. As a Gen Xer, we would never has seen anything like this on tv, representing teenagers. People always talk about the problematic stuff, like "well we could never make this movie/show/book now" well I can't imagine anyone making Glee on network television now, not with the current atmosphere as they try and drag us back into the dark ages.
Things why i like Glee:
1. Musical
2. With the stories where we can relate
Editted: Thanks for the 570 Likes, I really appreciate it❤️ OwO
I strongly agree

I am always so moved at how they completely changed the meaning of the song. Unique is literally saying if i were a boy life would be easier. but i'm not supposed to be a boy. Brings me to tears everytime
but he is a boy?
@@emmasmith3014 Congratulations on missing the whole point
@@rachellambert6659 how do you mean? please explain im not trying to be rude or anything
@@emmasmith3014 ah of course ok. Wade is a very shy and uncomfortable individual however when he dresses up as Unique (his alter ego if you like) He becomes confident and strong. Unique is a She and she loves this side of herself but in this society she is not able to act on it. The world only looks at him as a boy. but that is not how he best sees himself. His best self is Unique. 🥰
therefore from the singers view, this is a message to the world that they don't feel like a Boy 2:46 "You're just a Boy.. You dont understand".
Whereas Beyonce's intention was to point out how men take women for granted
Everyone says glee is just a show tune music show which sucks
That’s what I thought even though I’m a die hard theatre kid, thought it was annoying
I looked into glee, and glee made me realize so many things, about being faithful to yourself, not giving up, becoming stronger, having courage and standing up to people
Glee faced so many issues in society, and gave solutions to many problems, glee honestly is one of the top tv shows, as well as being ridiculously hilarious, it’s honestly incredible
🧀🥬🍞
No matter how many times I see this scene, I will always cry. I think it connects very deep with unique Adams
I tear up everytime I watch this. Unique gave this song a whole new meaning, hits different how she sang it
This scene is relatable. Sh*t it's 2020
🧀🥬🍞
It just hurts how evil people can be
They weren't actually being mean for real in this video. The people in the video were just acting for a tv show.
I love how the guys stand right up for her, no context no explanation just seeing unique is sad and upset and instantly “we need names”
I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wanted
And I’d never get confronted for it.
'Cause they’d stick up for me.

Ashleah Eunice but he is a boy. I love that song.
@@angelscinta4385 ... But, at least for the show (don't know about real life), he isn't. He's transgender.
lautz73 he's a boy regardless in real life and in the show.
@@angelscinta4385 cis homosexual. That's what s/he is.
lautz73 he is a boy not a girl. there is only cis-gender no transgender just cis-gender. he is a boy and I think gay I'm not sure.
Did anyone else cry to this
Stardust Gems meeee
I just found it and I'm watching it every second and bawling my eyes out!!!!! This is just powerful!!!!!
What makes me so mad about that scene is that Ryder really was talking about “kicking someone’s ass” but was the biggest homophobe
I don't think like he was a complete homophobe, like in the beggining YES, he was, but as the show went on he really evolved and tried to understand Unique's truth, like in this scene when he kind of realised how that affected a person close to him, and stud for her, over his own conception/prejudice
I feel like when he let himself understand her, and her struggles he wasn’t as much of a jerk
With Ryder it was ignorance but as he knew her more he saw how much struggles and pain she has just trying to be her self that would change most people to see what's right ..x x
You know, people can learn and grow. They can change. I didn’t remotely understand what being Trans was like until my best friend came out.
I was ignorant. I made the jokes. Then I decided that being ignorant wasn’t how I wanted to be. Stop immediately excluding people because of how they were. Educate, include. Prove that the idea of equality and acceptance isn’t a damn platitude.
@@Ously6 no one ever said it was sweetheart but go off
in my feels rn this is bull no one should be treated like this. I love how this show covers so much that is happening in todays society. Absolutely beautiful. Remember you are beautiful and amazing just the way you are, dont let ANYONE tell you otherwise. ❤️
We need some names.... Love them for it.
one of my favorite performances of the entire series. such an amazing cover and it takes on a whole new meaning, absolutely beautiful.
You made the song 100% times better unique and I love it so much. I'm sweating right now!
2:23 is where I started crying 💔The emotion behind his/her singing was heartbreaking :(
I can feel how she's feeling because i'm also one of the person that got bullied just because i'm different (feminine male and come from a poor family since born till now). I don't know how much tears i've been crying out, the loneliness inside,
I thank Jesus for loving me unconditionally and giving me strengh to live my life till now. This is the only thing that i have in life "thankful and keep going". It encourages me to live my life until i reach the finish line of life.
Be brave, be strong, be thankful and be you. 💚
It’s not just the song, it’s the three guys unwavering support, that gets me in this scene x
It’s February 2020 and I’m sitting here watching this like it just dropped today. GLEE was everything. Those two deaths hurt like hell, so a reboot will never be possible. Gonna get all seasons and binge over spring break.❤️
Sadly, there were three deaths among the main cast.
6 years and it still gives me chills
Even after all these years, in 2019, this still brings a tear to my eye. So emotional and real!
Last person who texted your wrong you can't relate to unique pain because you no what he is a unique person who is just the same as all of us.
You mean she, right? Unique is a girl/woman not a boy/man.
Ali Song I mean, technically she was born a boy, so I can see why they'd be confused. But still, she's a she.
