Thanks for reacting to this song! It’s one of my all time favorite songs! I always sob like a child while watching her perform it.
I would like to suggest the musical tv show Galavant for some reactions it is really good and fun. A good laugh with some decent songs in the mix
I completely understand that feeling, feeling left out and trapped even within your own family, not finding your place, living different lives and adapting depending on the people you are with. I am thankful for people like you, who, in addition to making great reactions and analysis, also fight to create safe environments for people like me, who have no one to lean on. I could write more things but this message is already too long... Thank you very much for your support and kindness. Greetings from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.
Can you react to the new songs from Joshua Bassett would you love me now and Different your reactions are so fun and interesting to watch
Your hair color is PHENOMENAL! ALSO LOVE YOUR VIDS!!!
The only thing I dislike about Unique is how she’s dressed and styled. She’s a teenager why are they dressing her like a 40 year old auntie?
wasn't it because she wore her mum's clothes or sum?
LMMFAOOO
my sister is trans and at first that was how she dressed too. She took inspiration from the women she saw the most. She's been out of the closet for years and she has her own style now. But it's not as easy as telling the world and immediately going to the store and buying a new wardrobe. You need to discover your style first. It's just difficult in the beginning.
😂😂
Knock it off? That's rude and disrespectful
#BeCool
I cry everytime I watch this. Alex's vocals and soul and feelings are just perfection.
I remember suggesting this song. I am so glad you are watching it. ISN'T IT SO POWERFUL AND BEAUTIFUL!?!?!?!
Absolutely!
that "we need some names" gave me goosebumps
It's amazing how Glee can have Blurred Lines and this in the same episode. The show is so weird but I love it.
Also, the reason Ryder looks back at Sam and Jake is because he had been angry with Unique for catfishing him. He couldn't see past the betrayal and try to understand where she was coming from until that moment in the performance.
Is that the reason? 🤔 The show never acknowledged the catfishing after S4 ended. In S5, Ryder and Unique barely show any animosity between each other. I'm pretty sure the looks Ryder gives Sam and Jake are a silent agreement to go beat up the dudes who bullied Unique
Yes, I agree with the previous comment, also, if I remember correctly they concluded and made peace about that in the same episode, clearing that Ryder couldn't yet trust her back because of it but there was no hard feelings because the girls talked to him about it to put him in her shoes and make him understand. If not in that same episode, this happened up to two or three episode after, not further.
@@tempest2789 That could be, I don't remember. It was just one of those things that was dropped. But I think they focused on Ryder because of that.
I agree with the beginning but the look between the 3 of them was a “we know what we gotta do look” it’s something real common between us guys because right when she finished singing all three of them hopped up like “who did it we gon kick they ass for you”
So the guys glancing at each other in this is basically them realizing that somebody did something to unique and they were basically like "who we gunna go jump after this" 🥺🥰
After this reaction, you need to check Unique singing "“I know where I’ve been". It's THE best glee version ever made. Please, do this for us!
It's coming in two weeks!
@@SongsFromASuitcase YAY
YESSS
@@SongsFromASuitcase I CANNOT WAIT
Alex is so phenomenal. Their only performance that I think has more extraordinary vocals with the is “I know where I’ve been.” Which they performed on the show in a later season. But also performed with the gay man’s chorus (I can’t remember the specific group) but it is absolutely incredible. The latter is live so I’ll leave it up to you which version you’d prefer to listen to.
*Alex also sang this more recently for an AIDS Walk New York video and it’s also out of this world. Different choices were made but just as powerful a performance. They’re vocals are just so good.
It was a trans chorus!
@@danielblair9535 an amazing trans chorus on glee. Didn’t mean to take away from that. The other performance i initially mentioned was with the Gay men’s chorus (which may included trans men, but I was just going off the video title I remembered and having double checked it, was the Boston gay men’s chorus).
There are no words worthy of that performance.
Boogie shoes has some good vocals
i cry EVERY time i watch that performance it’s 1000% the best cover on the entire show imo
"We need some names." Exactly. I would be right there with them. It's not hard to be a decent human being. But yes, Alex/ Unique has an amazing voice
You & me both. Even if I am like Artie IRL.
As a gay man in my 60's I was never even close to being 'transphobic,' but I was mighty uncomfortable with my lack of empathy towards transexuals. I just could not put myself in those specific gender dysphoric shoes even though I had worked hard over the years to get people who had the same ignorance with gays to find a shoehorn. So I decided to watch some youtube channel content by transitioning /transitioned youth so that I could better understand the world from their perspective. It works! I stopped identifying with the confused loved ones of a transitioning youth, and started identifying with who I really needed to. Every once in a while I still need a refresher, and UA-cam is my tutorial. We never had anything like that in the 1970's and 80's.
I forgot how powerful this performance is. I have full body chills.
Oh this is one of my favorite Glee covers, it always manages to bring me to tears.
As a trans queer person, this video made me so happy, and your words of encouragement and comfort made me happier than anything. This song speaks to me so much (even though I’m ftm) I understand that feeling of just wanting to be normal. I love myself for who I am and I’m so proud of myself and where I am in my transition but I can’t help but wish I had the easier experience
what does ftm mean? that you are transitioning to a female body?
i hope the question is not offensive in any way, i respect as whatever you identify, i just didnt see that short form before
@@sarahbosch9660 it means female to male and is the counterpart to mtf the transfem equivalent. hope this clears things up.
@@justathey5561 aaah that makes sense! Thank you for the clarification 🤗
As a mom who cried over many of the bullying episodes on Glee. I applaud your courage. Be happy.
Alex delivers this so beautifully, every lyric vibrates in every cell of those who honour this message and listen intently. The conflict between your analytical and your emotional process is completely understandable. I appreciate the analysis you did include, I also think it's a testament to this masterpiece that your emotional response was stronger.
one of the most powerful performances on the show and that is saying a lot!
I also never really cared for the original song, and I honestly don't really simply listen to this version either, but *watching* this performance never fails to get me. Alex is absolutely phenomenal here
Please react to "I know where I've been" also by Unique ❤️
It's my favorite performance by Unique 💜
Yesss !!!
It's coming in two weeks!
This is the best Glee cover in the whole series and it's not even close. Masterful arrangement to make the song completely different and amazing vocals
Gosh I love her voice! Also i personally feel like the writers did Unique so dirty! The club members acted as if Unique was a costume that she could just take on and off, there was that whole catfish storyline, and she only returned later on to help push Sheldon’s storyline. I would say that they treated Sheldon’s transition with way more care than they did with Unique’s story and it’s just not fair. I know that sheldon’s story was two yrs later so different times or whatever, but i wish they gave Unique a better send off (even in s6)
Well Alex was initially only supposed to make two appearances on the show, and I think it made the story more real by showing that she made mistakes just like everyone else. And I feel like her one true friend, Marley, treated her like she deserved to be treated as well as Kurt and Mercedes. Realistically at that time there were more people who didn’t fully understand than those who did even if they showed acceptance. I think Sheldon had an easier storyline because of Unique.
I wasn’t a fan of Sheldons transition imo, because they spent the whole show saying that he was breaking the stereotype and being a strong woman in sports, and then they threw away a perfectly fine transitioning character and suddenly changed Sheldons whole storyline to create a different transitioning character. Yes I still believe it was important but it was just completely off everything they’d said previously about Sheldons character
@@soph4850 This! I thought exactly the same.
A big part of Beistes storyline, was that he felt and wanted to be seen as a woman, despite his appearance and his job.
And i loved that. I loved, that they fought stereotypes with his character, especially with his vulnerable moments.
But letting him transition felt like giving in to a cliché.
There is a "masculine" woman with a "masculine" job? She MUST be transgender🤡
They just should've handled Uniques transition better and let Beiste be, what he was: a woman, who was herself and fought to be seen as exactly that.
(Sorry for my English, it's not my first language)
This!! I loved Beiste's storyline up to the transition because we finally had a "tomboy" storyline where she still wanted to be seen and feel like a woman.
And the abuse storyline was really good, too, so sad, but good.
When Beiste started transitioning, I felt a bit cheated, to be honest.
If you are a woman that likes "manly" things and is "strong" and "manly", you obviously want to be a man, right?
Glad to see I am not the only one that felt like that.
@H W I'd like to point out that this is actually the real life story of many trans people. The story where they lean hard into wanting to be referred to by their AGAB pronouns and seen as their AGAB, especially the older generations of trans folks. Beiste's story is one I hear time and time again in my community
Your message of acceptance and support is greatly appreciated. It honestly means a lot to come across without having to dig and search and look. Being used to having to accept being tolerated as a best scenario in most cases is... difficult.
Every time I watch Unique sing this song, I feel it in my soul. Thank you for providing a safe place where people can be their true selves, and especially for blocking the haters.
I cry every time I watch this video. Not only because of Unique's absolutely stellar performance but also because of Audrey's speech at the end. All the different people in the world are beautiful and Audrey, you are an AMAZING and BEAUTUFIL person too! Love you and your videos SO much!! 🥰❤
If you also watch Alex's performance of "I Know Where I've Been" it was definitely another powerful performance.
We don't deserve Alex's performances. Just too good.
I love Alex Newell's VOICE!!!
This is extremely beautiful ❤️ you made the review/reaction worth watching,thank you for this
thank you sm
"Diamonds are a girl's best friend - Glee"
I think you'd love that performance, Wade 'Unique' Adams AKA Alex Newell did magic there ❤️
I did not follow Glee, so this was my first time seeing this clip. What a powerful and moving performance!
I am not familiar with this vocal coach. I love her already. The empathy that she showed brought me to tears, too. There is no excuse to hate someone simply for being different than us. We are all our original selves and different in many ways.
It's a shame to throw someone away based on something so superficial.
I very much so relate to Rupaul's proposal that we in the LGBTQIA+ community create our own non-blood Family.
Your blood is your family, but the genuine friendships that you make along the way can be just as powerful and intimate a bond.
I didn't tell my family that I had a boyfriend for the first time until I was 30. At this point, I had been dating men for 10 years.
I can't express the fear, shame and disappointment that you feel towards yourself, not to mention your family, when your environment does not allow you to be your authentic self. We all need love and support.
This performance is so phenomenal and I cry every time I see it. Sing for the Gods
So the look was confirm that they where going kick someone ass 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
So Powerful!! It made cry the first time I watched it..She did an epic job..
Just got chills not only for the incredibly talented Alex, but for the message that you passed. Thank you, thank you.
One of the better moments of season 5, in the sense it brings this struggle to attention. Alex portrayed Unique so wonderfully ❤
This gets me every time, and not just as a trans person, but as a person who has compassion and wants people to be able to live their lives when they're not harming anyone. Thank you for the analysis!
Ok. I’m crying. I forgot how stunning this was.
The song is perfect for the character ... also puts all the emotions imaginable singing it ... guaranteed goosebumps, along with some tears.
As a transgender woman for years I struggled with having a deep voice.
But I found singing helped to slowly raise my voice to a higher tone.
Yes! I often teach my transgender female students to pick light easy female songs and then work your way towards hairspray rock style to help create more strength.
@Songs From A Suitcase I wish I had someone to teach my son how to retrain his voice so he could enjoy singing again. Unfortunately, that was one of the only negative side effects of testosterone that I think he really regrets
This version makes my whole body shiver and cry
I love this one. Unique nailed if I were a boy!
Interestingly, despite playing a mtf trans character on Glee, Alex actually uses they/them pronouns in real life. Mo from ZEP is closer to their real-life self, though that character is usually tagged with he/him pronouns. Fun fact, Alex has a rare voice type called male soprano, that's why they can sing so high.
Alex has actually said that they're okay with any pronouns as they're gender nonconforming
Perfect song for her. Just gorgeous, but so so heartbreaking.
I still can't watch this without crying. Such a beautiful song and voice.
If you enjoyed Alex's vocals here, you must watch their I Know Wheren I've Been performance in one of the latter seasons. It is just incredible!
I’ve been waiting for this it’s such a great and important performance
I have seen every episode of Glee like 100 times. One of those times were before high school started and I had to skip over this song to keep myself from crying because I hate the idea of random strangers seeing me cry. This song was so powerful and I never understood just how powerful the song was until this episode came out. Alex Newell is such an amazing singer and does such a great job at portraying characters like this. Granted, I have never seen a single episode of Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist but I have seen the cast do a cover of I Wanna Dance With Somebody Who Loves Me by Whitney Houston and I noticed Alex Newell and made the assumption that his character was also transgender because of the amazing job he did portraying Wade “Unique” Adams on Glee.
I feel like this comment went from a story about how I didn’t want to cry at my high school took a Unique turn about how much I love Alex Newell. Hahaha (see what I did there) Love you Alex!
The way I CACKLED when you asked about the word TWERK and was hella confused and then went back to being so serious!!
I seriously needed that breather xD
The look is an agreement that they wanted to get the other guys to fight those guys who bullied unique.
I agree, this rendition is absolutely perfect. Unique has incredible voice control and and tuning that is increfible. I hope Alex records music from the The Great American Song Book.
I just found your channel. You have earned my respect. Your enthusiasm sounds as clearly as a bell and your knowledge of the ins and outs of harmonics adds a great layer of beautiful.
YESSSS! Can’t wait! I have been suggesting it in every Glee reaction I watch!!!❤
I love Alex. The voice is amazing. I would recommend watching his version of I Am Changing. It was his performance on the Glee Project. It can be hard to find, but it is worth it.
You should listen to I know where I've been. Alex's vocals just make me cry everytime
As a trans nonbinary person, this cover meant the world to me and now I am watching your video and I feel seen so thank you.
Why
Nonbinary isn't real
Alex is my spirit animal. Zoey 4EVER!
So much important's words from you. Thank you for your work. Keep going and stay the beautiful person that you are. You are so wonderful.
No matterhow many times I hear this song and this version and chills, complete chills EVERY DAMN TIME!!!!!
I’ve never seen your channel but half way through you got an instant subscribe just based off of how genuine you come across.
Side note that “we need some names” gave me chills
Alex became bonafide for me with that, I was a fan already but Alex won me when I watched that episode
This video is such a light to the world!!! So emotional and so empowering ❤ good job
I appreciate you saying you appreciate people who are different. For people like me, it means a lot because we don’t often see it
I’ve been fortunate to see Alex perform live. Amazingly talented artist.
It really is a shame that Glee's later seasons went the way they did. The next generation had some stories to tell, but they just didn't get proper screentime the way they should have.
EXCELLENT ANALYSIS SONGSTRESS 👏 👍 👌!!!!!!!!!!
TECHNICAL AND EMOTIONAL BATTLE.
This song makes me cry EVERY TIME ❤
You’re message at the end of the video has me in tears like 🥺💕💕
You are so amazing person, while watching you i felt like i was watching mother i have never had.
It helps to know that there are people like you.
Just wanted to comment emotions i felt.
Thank you
Your open mind and encouraging words are so heartwarming. I have been transitioning for over 5 years female to male and dropping from alto to baritone enabling me to sing some gorgeous arias. My love for performing arts, music and singing has only grown ten fold. Keep being wonderful.❤😄
This scene broke me and had me bawling but loved her story line so much throughout glee and honestly so happy they showed it as at this time no tv had really showed it as raw as this and I really enjoyed her voice and the way she told a story and sung this to perfect it changed my point of view on the song and I was here for it and loved it ❤❤❤ no one should ever have to go through this heartbreaking ❤❤❤
When you mentioned how they took the song and used it in a different scenario and now the song sounds deeper, i feel the same about "i want to hold your hand" i meaaan now whenever i listen to it i directly remember the scene of kurt singing it in the choir room wearing a red jacket and the flashbacks of young kurt with his dad, they took a happy upbeat song and transformed it into a sad and an extremely emotional one.. i love that a lot.
Alex is so talented and makes this song there own
One of my favorite songs from glee❤️
I remember when I first saw Alex. My sister was a huge gleek, but I “was too young to watch” (strict parents). I was allowed to watch the Glee Project with my sister when it came out, and Alex was my fav in an INSTANT!! One of the first queer and black people I had to look up to, being in such a conservative household. An effortlessly iconic voice, sends chills with every song. ❤️🔥
This whole scene breaks me. I don’t care much about the song itself but their version is wonderful.
The scene where the guys look at each other ends with them fighting to defend Unique and I always cry 😅
Glee wasn't always the best, but when they got it right - like here - this show killed it.
Don’t want to wait??? Watch this video RIGHT NOW on my Patreon account:

I really hope you do the glee project, Alex who plays Unqiue is just amazing. Seriously love them so much
Love that you finaly hear this masterpiece ❤️🥰
I love you even more for this reaction
that twerking bit your editor added in has scarred me for life from the show
Me when you were talking about the look the guys gave. Being the certified gleek I am was like “just wait. They’re giving the ‘we’re gonna fight those jerks’ look and supporting Unique.”
by far my favorite cover song of glee
"We need names." That is what "the look" was for.
Alex is phenomenal. Had the pleasure of seeing Them play Mary Magdelene years ago
Hello! Just so you know that shared look was them agreeing to go find the people who hurt Unique and get some payback for making her feel this way. It is honestly one of my favorite moments in Glee because they all come to her defense immediately.
You should view Alex's performance as Asaka and the song Mama Will Provide from the musical Once On This Island. It was flawless and the recordings/video's don't do his live performance justice.
Respect to the guys
Omg this performance ❤️
"I am gonna f&ck sh!t up!" Miss Ma'am, I liveeee ahahah
LOVE THIS SO MUCH and we love Wade 👑Unique👑 Adams 💞
I just found your channel now. I adore you and your outlook. I am genetically female and have masculine vocal chords. Possibly due to being a twin and a premi.
I was a theater student and was forced to stretch my voice to soprano to get "girl" parts.
My niece and nephew love my slightly deeper voice and it puts them to sleep almost instantly.
I have no idea how hard it is to be transgendered. I just know how hard it was to be a straight female in the arts with a deeper voice. It was bad.
Oh wow!! I find that fascinating!! I would love to feel what it feels like to hit low notes. I hope someday you become proud of your amazingly unique voice ❤️❤️
@@SongsFromASuitcase I'm a nanny now and the babies love my deeper voice. Especially my nice and nephew. I can get them to sleep about halfway through disturbed sound of silence ❤. Thank you. What you wrote made me tear up a little and I just wish my voice coach was like you when I was in high-school.
The song that actually helped me come out as trans and start my transition was glee's rendition of I know where I've been so would love to see you react to that if you haven't already.
Alex was equally phenomenal on another NBC show called Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist. Sadly the show only got two seasons.
Thank you so much foe that, Aud ❤️
❤ top 5 glee songs. Alex gives me chills every. Single. Time. ❤
You’re a diamond and all round great human.
This is the first video of yours I have seen and I want to say thank you. This is something I didn't know I needed. I love singing but it is a hobby I am so afraid to do in front of others because, especially right now, I am going through HRT and I am not where I want to be voice wise but I am still in the "puberty + menopause" phase as a friend has labeled it. I am not a huge fan of Glee but for it being the first LGBTQ+ positive thing and being the only way I could be out for 20-30 minutes when I was young. This character was the first transgender character I ever saw. The vocals, the friends, the talent, confidence, and being able to dance in heels. Like I can't stand long enough to put them on let alone walk or dance. I have faced so much transphobia, panphobia, biphobia, homophobia, etc.. My safe spaces were tainted by the haters. I lived years with no safety. If I could be a patreon just to encourage the safe space you hold, I would. It sounds like the sort of place everyone needs. Thank you for the video and the love you spread.
I hope you're gaining your confidence to sing in front of others. My son's singing voice changed so much on testosterone that now he barely even sings in private. Good luck to you!
I am the same, I enjoy this song but I'm not a huge fan of it. But this version just gets me every time. It breaks me every single time I hear it.
Just emagin this being, ur coming out push, and look at me now, wow im proud of us
Brings back memories, i miss glee
Yessss, i remember commenting about this one!!!
