YES!! Biggest Guy fan here!! SO glad you got to this - He represents Australia so well and this song has been around for awhile but still SLAPS!! He's AMAZING live and always arranges his songs even better if possible! He is a truth teller. He recently wrote one for his band mate who committed suicide called "Choir" because he didn't see it coming. Also: "Before I go" "Bloodstone"... and inspirational video "Get Along".
I'm soooooo excited that you are doing this You should definitely react to Guy doing this song by himself he did the rap as well flipping amazing Guy Sebastian is definitely on a different level of amazing
This is Guy’s songs he wrote the song lyrics and music with David Ryan Harris and asked Lupe to write the rap part. Released 2012 was huge hit here in Australia.
I am here to endorse this collaboration and your support of Guy Sebastian even though he doesn't have the traction of some artists - he definitely should! Good on you for persevering :)
Hey dude great reaction Guy was our first Australia Idol winner and never grabbed me until he started making music outside that contract. Both him and Matt Corby are the 2 best talents to ever come from an Idol show IMO Matt Corby only came 3rd. But went on to be one of our best songwriters. His song Brother which seems to be about him sleeping with either his friends or his actual brother's girlfriend and the regret involved. Super deep song. Brilliant vocals. You will love it. Dont have to react but check it out brother.
I'd like to hear your reaction to a recent Guy Sebastian solo song, 'Before I Go'. 'Battle Scars' was a long time ago and guy's voice keeps getting better and better. Also, there's a live version of this, done for an Australian TV show, The X-Factor. Amazing.
I am a Guy Sebastian fan and yes, he’s voice is amazing! Having been to a few of his concerts here in Brisbane, Aus, his voice is just a flawless live and with just a mic and guitar or piano. This song always gets me! Awesome review! New subbie here! 🙋🏽♀️
Guy Sebastian is one of my favourite artists,and I love this song of his,even though it's one of his older ones. He has some amazing songs,that really hit you in the feels,and his voice is beautiful,too. "Choir" is well worth a listen too,and so is "Bloodstone"."Before I Go" is also a great song too. I would love you to listen to Bloodstone and choir both are such great songs,and showcase that amazing voice of his.
11:18 I find it really cool that you mentioned how he gives the music videos meaning instead of just going with the vibe of nudity etc. because he did a song called “Mama Ain’t Proud” with 2 Chainz, and the comments were saying that it was probably the most PG music video 2 Chainz has ever been in lmao. It’s one of his more just fun sort of songs, it’s in his ‘Madness’ album which was kinda the album where he took his music into a slightly different direction to what he was used to. It’s not like the ones you’ve listened to so far as it’s a lot more lighthearted
Maaatttteeee. Its awesome to see you finding this. Loved your reaction to "standing by you". You have a great angle analysing the lyric and production and different from a lot. Love your passion too. A lot of us are excited to see Guy known more widely and inspire him to make more like this. He is even better live and a lot say this. Try "Set in Stone" on X factor Australia and particularly "Get along" performance on NZ xfactor. The lyric in that is awesome and you will love it. He does an awesome version of "climb every Mountain" and "The Climb" by Mylie Cyrus. Also Man in the Mirror if you want to so how good his voice really is. 👍
Nice, He did Battle Scars on Conan and David Letterman. Both of them just killed it. Do more Lupe as well he has done a couple of recent collaborations particularly Jay Z.
Great reaction and review loved it , you so need to react to Bloodstone also by Guy which is very familiar flavour as “Standing with You “ it’s about grinding through relationship trouble.
Guy Sebastian writes all his own lyrics, music and chooses who he collaborates with, This is 1 of the best songs he has written, listen to all his songs like Standing with you, Before i go and Believer just to mention a few, his voice and lyrics are out of this world
You should check Tetsua & Youth from Lupe Mural for example. Or from his latest album Drogas waves begin with wav files and after king nas, or his latest EP.
Acoustic version all his live performances bro he is NO1. ALL HIS SONGS ARE SO AWESOME.. HE IS AN AWESOME SONGWRITER!!!! I HAVE FOLLOWED AND SUPPORTED AS WELL AS DEFENDED HIM FROM HATERS THAT IVE COME ACCROSS 🤦♀️🤦♀️AND WORTH STANDING UP FOR WHATS RIGHT AGAINST THOSE WHOM ARE WRONG ... IVE SEEN HIM LIVE ONLY TWICE AS A SURPRISE ACT THAT I DIDNT KNOW IT WAS SO AMAZING HES AMAZING HIS WHOLE BAND AND SUPPORTING SINGERS 👍☝️💪❤I COULD ONLY IMAGINE WHAT AND HOW UNFATHOMABLE IT WOULD BE TO 1DAY ATTEND 1 OF HIS CONCERTS AND MEET HIM JUST TO SHARE WITH HIM AND GIVE HIM MY MUMS HUG #HELP #UPLIFT #GOOD #SPIRIT
Please check out Choir and Standing with you by Guy. Voice is ridiculously crazy and he writes his songs. All deep lyrical content. Plus he does so much for kids and the needy.
I think Lupe is objectively the greatest rapper currently doing it in terms of pure skill, he may not be your preference or style or you may not like listening to things you gotta think about too much or you just might like another rapper better but i think objectively his rhyme schemes, his word play and his fucking quintuple entandre... like no one else really does any of that on quite the same level.
We all have battle scars, on the brain, in our feelings, in our thinking. We are all scarred from some comment, some act, some accident. We all carry something which will always pull us back a bit and stop us from doing or committing strongly to something.
Your analysis was spot on....Having known Guy's music for years now I feel Guy always pushes for us to understand each other..as in we all have our own 'battle scars' that we carry within us.....Guy wrote this but felt he needed a rap to be part of it...took a chance & sent it to Lupe ...he wanted to do it & wrote the rap part ...so both agreed to put it on their respective albums...it gave Lupe his first #1 in Australia, plus his album nominated for a Grammy. both appeared on Letterman. .Jimmy Fallon & Conan...they did a second song called "Linger" would love your thoughts on this ua-cam.com/video/jk3Oe-2LmLk/v-deo.html
Loved this reaction! Guys incredible. I've seen him perform many times, he actually actually sounds even better live. It's crazy! I still love battle scars. I recently heard his song "Get along" again and although it's several years old...it's never been more relevant. A lot of the world is so divided. For anyone that wants to check out the song👇 ua-cam.com/video/3-nd1nQgOr8/v-deo.html
Should do 'Get long' Has a very import message to be told about all religions and people getting along. It is almost close to your genre but the video is amazing like this. It is important the wider world get to see it. Peace man.
Ngl listening to this song for the first in like years hits different, it's probably bc of the meaning of the song and all the problems I've been through, i was emotionally, physically abused and feel neglect.
What's nice about this collaboration is that Guy is a Christian, Lupe a Muslim but their mutual respect is so clear. You might enjoy 'Get along' from Guy if you haven't heard it already.
These two go together amazingly. Guy is great and well, Lupe is Lupe, the man is insane. Would love to see you react to more Lupe on here too if there’s stuff you haven’t already heard.
The song is Guy Sebastion's song, featuring Lupe Fiasco. Don't get me wrong. Lupe is great. But, You should have listened to this without thinking Lupe is the reason you listened to this. Guy is a massive music hero in Australia. He won the Australian Idol and judges The Voice in Australia!! I might be wrong, but I'm sure Guy is a bigger hit in Australia than Lupe. Watch this when Guy sang this from his home studio during COVID-19 lockdown...
Guy refused to have naked ladies or sexual tones in his music or videos, so American music executives rejected him. Even when this was released in America, they reversed the names, saying it was Lupe Fiasco ft Guy Sebastion...
Just one criticism of your critique......this is not a Lupe song it was written by Guy Sebastian and Lupe is not the main artist. Not saying he was bad in any way at all but this is 100% Guy.
This is a big weekend for content. Your cypher is coming when I get off work. Was gonna knock it out on break but it was like 15 mins long if I had the right one lol. VI seconds isn't on my radar rn. He was on the old list before it got deleted but this is the first in hearing about him again so it'll still be a min while I catch up on the never ending list
@@SteveBussaGS damn... well you might as well just put those 2 songs at the bottom and get to them when you get to them cuz that list is only gonna get bigger lol
No, he didn't. He sang it at the Home Front concert and dedicated it to the Anzacs, but he didn't write it about them. Get your facts straight before you embarrass yourself anymore, boomer.
you so have to see the acoustic version - it's insane!
Yep
Do it, you'll be blown away.
Right .❤
YES!! Biggest Guy fan here!! SO glad you got to this - He represents Australia so well and this song has been around for awhile but still SLAPS!! He's AMAZING live and always arranges his songs even better if possible! He is a truth teller.

Agree with we had lots singers that great singers
Well I am a Australian and I’m also aboriginal
This is another great song written by Guy Sebastian.
I'm so happy you got around to this 🙌🏾
Supply and demand lol I wish more guy fans hit my channel up hes something special
Everything Guy does is gold. This is my favourite song. He's such a talented writer, singer, producer, everything.
Guy has such an amazing voice. Like damn I love his voice 😭
I swear I’m so here for the Sebastian reactions 😂 I would love to see you react to his song ‘Before I go’!!!
I'm soooooo excited that you are doing this
You should definitely react to Guy doing this song by himself
he did the rap as well
flipping amazing
Guy Sebastian is definitely on a different level of amazing
Yep, love Guys acoustic version.
his vocals are brilliant in that live version
Just watched the Anzac Day acoustic version which is the first time I’ve heard the song. It was amazing.
Linked it above
This is Guy’s songs he wrote the song lyrics and music with David Ryan Harris and asked Lupe to write the rap part. Released 2012 was huge hit here in Australia.
I am totally shocked that this was 9 years ago😲. It only seems like yesterday to me 🤷🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
I am here to endorse this collaboration and your support of Guy Sebastian even though he doesn't have the traction of some artists - he definitely should! Good on you for persevering :)
Guys acoustic version pared down where he sings both parts playing guitar is absolutely beautiful.
Hey dude great reaction Guy was our first Australia Idol winner and never grabbed me until he started making music outside that contract.
Both him and Matt Corby are the 2 best talents to ever come from an Idol show IMO
Matt Corby only came 3rd. But went on to be one of our best songwriters.
His song Brother which seems to be about him sleeping with either his friends or his actual brother's girlfriend and the regret involved.
Super deep song. Brilliant vocals. You will love it. Dont have to react but check it out brother.

Don't forget his set in stone on xfactor live 🤟
You got it ! You 100% got it!
...and yes the vocal sounds fit perfectly with each other...another really well written song.
Sept 2021 and just found you. Love your analytical take on our amazing Guy! Cheers mate from South Australia!!
You are one smart man, your interpretations of these songs is genius.
Here for this! I reacted to it a month or so ago. LOVE it! It was my first time hearing both of them. Great reaction! 😁👊🙏

I would love you to listen to Bloodstone and choir both are such great songs,and showcase that amazing voice of his.
im australian and ive never heard this...wow gives me goosebumps..will be checking more of Guys music..👍
Fell in love with this song about a decade ago when I was a teenager. Still hits hard. One of my all time favs. 🏆
I love this song. Loving the message behind this

I'll try doing some live by him
Nice, He did Battle Scars on Conan and David Letterman. Both of them just killed it. Do more Lupe as well he has done a couple of recent collaborations particularly Jay Z.
One of my favourite songs ever.. It's always been on every device I use since it came out first
You hit the nail on the top mate…. Yeah him and his wife had separated but back together now thankfully. Plus he plays for our diggers in war.
Great reaction
Hi Steve have you heard Guy’s acoustic version of this song ? To find it, look up “ music from the home front “ it’s absolutely amazing!!
Love Guy! Guy won Australia Idol in 2003 at age 21. Also check out same song acoustic in his studio.
Great reaction and review loved it , you so need to react to Bloodstone also by Guy which is very familiar flavour as “Standing with You “ it’s about grinding through relationship trouble.
Not the scorpiossss🤣🤣 you so right!! 😭😭
It’s a brilliant collaboration. They both brought it. ❤
This is one of my favorite songs.
Guy Sebastian has a song with Jordin Sparks that's also on my playlist. You know, my non-MGK playlist lmao.
🔥🔥🔥This joint is something else, I also enjoy Blurr my hand - by lupe fiasco ft Guy sebastian from tetsuo and youth album
Yessss! Brilliant.
Guy Sebastian writes all his own lyrics, music and chooses who he collaborates with, This is 1 of the best songs he has written, listen to all his songs like Standing with you, Before i go and Believer just to mention a few, his voice and lyrics are out of this world

This is a Guy Sebastian song features Lupe Fiasco, Guys talent is insane.
He has a really catchy tune with the Hamiltones called "let me drink" 🥰 It's a bop. I think you'd like it!
Acoustic version all his live performances bro he is NO1. ALL HIS SONGS ARE SO AWESOME.. HE IS AN AWESOME SONGWRITER!!!! I HAVE FOLLOWED AND SUPPORTED AS WELL AS DEFENDED HIM FROM HATERS THAT IVE COME ACCROSS 🤦♀️🤦♀️AND WORTH STANDING UP FOR WHATS RIGHT AGAINST THOSE WHOM ARE WRONG ...

Lupe nasty bro! Great vid!
Have you done his chior song?
I can't believe this! Nice!!!
Two legends
Highly recommend reacting to Guy Sebastian's Before I Go! Great reaction to this song.
You have to listen to him live he sounds amazing
Please check out Choir and Standing with you by Guy. Voice is ridiculously crazy and he writes his songs. All deep lyrical content. Plus he does so much for kids and the needy.
Just feel the vibes!
I think Lupe is objectively the greatest rapper currently doing it in terms of pure skill, he may not be your preference or style or you may not like listening to things you gotta think about too much or you just might like another rapper better but i think objectively his rhyme schemes, his word play and his fucking quintuple entandre... like no one else really does any of that on quite the same level.
You wouldn’t be able to contain yourself if you watched the “Get Along” video. I’d anticipate a lot of stank face 😂🥴
We all have battle scars, on the brain, in our feelings, in our thinking. We are all scarred from some comment, some act, some accident. We all carry something which will always pull us back a bit and stop us from doing or committing strongly to something.
How is nobody talking abt believer , it’s one of his best work, live the voice performance is just out of this world

Love this guy one of Australia's best
Lol...Guy is a Scorpio ♏️
Agreeeeeeeeed! 👌
I miss music like this
Both my wife and I are Scorpio's.. battle scars on tough shells..

Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi...Go Sebastian...Check his latest song...>He's the BEST..vocally he's insane specially live..
Guy and lupe did a parody of this song with fitzy and wippa , you should check it out
These 2have another 2songs they have recorded together. check them out.
I’d love a reaction to Guy’s Linger 🙌
Guy Sebastian ROCKS ! ! ! !
Lupe Fiasco is one of the greatest poets our there
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Please react to Daylyt-Lytskin
Lupe & Guy do a 2nd track together called 'Linger' which is also good
I love how talks about tom hanks
What? He doesn't talk about Tom Hanks, he refers to him once, in reference to a character he played that related to the story in the song.
You got me with Scorpios...my ex

Aye I’m telling you man i really think you’re gonna like “5:30 AM” and “I’m sorry” by VI seconds you need to get on those at some point.

rip hes not died
Just saying...it's Guys song..go brother
Gday he is our Kelly Clarkson 1st Aussie Idol winner
When he said damaged by women I became a subscriber….. lol hilarious but sadly true…. We’re all damaged goods
He wrote this for our ANZAC's. "Australia New Zealand Army Corp" he's amazing, hey. We love him. 🇦🇺
No, he didn't. He sang it at the Home Front concert and dedicated it to the Anzacs, but he didn't write it about them. Get your facts straight before you embarrass yourself anymore, boomer.
v worst hurts in life r emotional.
Ianj remix better
This is not a relationship song!!!!!! It's about the "ANZACS" Australian/New Zealand army corps!!!!
rubbish
@@shanehayes857 no Rad is 100% correct !!
Sorry, wrong song, Guy sang it on Anzac Day, as a tribute, it wasn't originally for the Anzacs.
I'm a Scorpio and I've had my heart stomped on all my life from all different horoscopes. That sound at the end isn't on Guys MV of that song
