A little fun fact: This song was originally for Celine Dion and Because You Loved Me was originally for Toni Braxton. Diane Warren wrote both songs. I'm so glad toni got this song. I can't imagine anyone else singing it.
Dianne Warren is some force you can never reckon with.. She is a GOAT when it comes to songwriting. I think we should have a 2 weeks of all/some of Dianne Warren's love ballads
And the funny thing is, Celine went on to record "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" on that same album. Both "Unbreak My Heart" and "It's All Coming Back to Me Now" were released in 1996 and became big hits and both songs have music videos where the lover dies at the start in a motorcycle accident and the singer is singing about missing him even though both songs lyrically are more about a breakup than a deceased lover. 😆
Yes go Diane!!! She is one of only 33 women inducted into The Songwriters Hall of Fame (inducted in 2001 amongst 500 male writers)! While it is Mariah Carey (inducted June of 2022) that has written the most top 100 hits for females, Diane Warren helped Mariah write one of her MOST beloved ballads, entitled, "(Mariah's Theme) They Can't Take That Away from Me". (This song was Mariah Carey's middle finger to the industry...) Diane Warren and Mariah Carey on one track -*a masterpiece*! This song will make you cry, and uplift you!! It's a classic song that every human should own!🌈✨😭🌸
Her vocals on this.. SUPER chef’s kiss 😘. Absolutely gorgeous. The way she vocally takes the sound out in the end. Just breathtaking! Even better live!
Me with tears in my eyes: unnnnbREAAAAAKKK MYYYY HEEEAAAAAARRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTT. SAAAAYYY YOU LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOV VVVVEEEEE ME AGAAAAAAAAAAIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN😭😭😭😭😭😭👏🏾
Some video facts...That dress is a Gucci dress. It was a jaw dropper in the 90's. And the hair look was to resemble Barbara Striesand in the Star Is Born.
Ms. Braxton solidified her place in diva history with this song , dress and video. One of the greatest ballads of all time. Hats off to The Diane Warren. Toni’s Secrets album is an alltime great with SO many hits.
The male lead is supermodel Tyson Beckford. Side-note: songwriter Diane Warren penned this one, she is one of the Queens of power ballads…Monica(For You I Will), Brandy(Have You Ever), Christina Aguilera(I Turn to You), Aaliyah(The One I Gave My Heart To), Celine Dion(Because You Loved Me) and Beyoncé( I was Here) to name a few.
As someone who was barely over 20 when this came out, it is almost unfair how gorgeous Toni looks in pretty much every shot in this video. But that white dress..... that's just perfection. I remember every guy I knew was madly in love with her back then. Her alto voice was so nice since it had that nice lower register capability unlike most female singers.
OMG! This song? and Whitney? and George Michael? BEST WEEK EVAH! 🎉it was a crappy Monday and I really thought this was going to be a crappy week. But you guys totally changed it with these 3 drops in one day. Thank you so much. So happy now. ❤
It's so funny that the song she hated ended up becoming her biggest song. Like i said in the other video it's one of the best-selling records of all time and stayed at number 1 for 11 weeks.
You guys are too funny and love it, paying attention to just everything to the notes, instruments, the lyrics, her hair, her outfits etc. etc.!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You`re absolutely right about modulation: the verse is written in B minor, while the chorus is in D minor, which isn`t a typical way to modulate, yet a great one.
@weeklytop5 Joe I’m so happy you got your power ballad. And I appreciate that you both are so secure in your masculinity to acknowledge Tyson Beckford’s attractiveness.
Yes!!!!! Joe gets his ballad! Well hold on to your glasses boo! This one of them ones! Why am I so happy for them that they get to react to this?!?!💔🎶😭
Toni Braxton is one of the great contralto voices. The lowest voice for women - Karen Carpenter, Cher, Anne Murray and Gladys Knight are other famous contraltos. Toni has the darkest and lushest tones - her voice is so rich and beautifully textured. Gorgeous ballad.
Yes Babyface was part of an r&b group (not boy band) called The Deele. Their most popular song is Two Occasions. 🎶I only think of you on two occasions… that’s day… and night. I’d go for brooooke if I could be with you. Only you can make it right.🎶 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
This was my go-to hairbrush microphone in the mirror song when I back in middle/high school. 😂 Also, I didn't see "You're Making Me High" on your Toni Braxton week adventure. It's a classic, very sultry, and a great video!
The male lead is a model that was very popular. His name is Tyson Beckford. Hes black and Asian(Chimese) Initially Toni didn't want to sing the song bec she didn't want to be put back into an adult contemporary artist. She was persuaded to sing it and later said it was a good choice. It was written by Diane Warren who also wrote hits for Brandy, Celine Dion, Aerosmith etc
Designer Marc Bouwer designed that final dress - where she is singing with an orchestra. At the Grammys and other award shows that year - where she performed this song - Marc designed several dresses (with the cutout design) that Toni wore. Basically any sexy dresses she wore for the next couple of years...was a Marc Bouwer design...for a long time.
Toni Braxton had me thinking adulthood would be filled with Tyson Beckfords cause she always had hotties in every video (especially You're Making Me High) 😂

The male lead lol
Yall never heard of Tyson Beckford?
Famous Male supermodel.
What’s crazy is they have definitely talked about Tyson before. I remember them mentioning he is from their hometown or something 😂😂
Right!! He’s in Britney Spear’s Toxic too!
Can we get one more honorable mention : Toni’s “You’re Making Me High”. I think you guys would love that one.
Fun vid!
Well hopefully we will get a week 2 and that will be included. I don’t think anyone is gonna leave it off their list.
@@TheKittsPajamas I hope we get a week 2
Loooove that song!
I can't believe it wasn't on the list!
And “How Could An Angel Break My Heart?!”
I agree. I love toni's hair throughout the video. The white dress with the curly hair is one of my favorite looks.
right😍
Her vocals on this.. SUPER chef’s kiss 😘. Absolutely gorgeous. The way she vocally takes the sound out in the end. Just breathtaking! Even better live!
The Spanish guitar for Mariah Carey's "My All" and "Unbreak My Heart", chefs kiss
(Mariah needs another week, she has 19 number ones alone ✨)
At one time it was the most played single worldwide in history.
How did they measure that in the 90s? Unless you mean on radio?
@@merriammerkabah408 Radio…..
"his eyes are smilling!" lol cute
Me with tears in my eyes: unnnnbREAAAAAKKK MYYYY HEEEAAAAAARRRRRTTTTTTTTTTTT. SAAAAYYY YOU LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOV VVVVEEEEE ME AGAAAAAAAAAAIIIINNNNNNNNNNNN😭😭😭😭😭😭👏🏾
Literally me 😅

Spanish Guitar - Toni Braxton too

Diane Warren did not write Beautiful by Christina Aguilera. Linda Perry wrote it. Diane Warren wrote I Turn to You by Christina Aguilera.
@@Felinawashere2000 omg thanks so much for catching that, I don’t know how I got the two songs mixed up.
The climax of this song damn near makes me tear up every time I hear it. Soooo good
Thankfully the wrong was righted!! Still can't believe it wasn't on the list that you were given.
Its criminal. And the fact that this was their best reaction makes it even more hilarious
Could not believe it wasn’t listed until now. So glad!
Toni Braxton- How Could An Angel Break My Heart
YES THIS ONE PLEASE!!!
@@chanelsimone6072 that's one of my favorites from the secret album (1996)
I'm so glad you guy finally did this one! This is the song she's most known for. ICONIC!! lol
Thanks for listening to your fans!! 🤩 Hope it lives up to our hype 😆

I remember every guy I knew was madly in love with her back then. Her alto voice was so nice since it had that nice lower register capability unlike most female singers.
Great reveiw! Cool seeing how much you enjoy her music!😀. Another power ballad to checkout is Nobody's Supposed To Be Here by Deborah Cox!
OMG! This song? and Whitney? and George Michael? BEST WEEK EVAH! 🎉it was a crappy Monday and I really thought this was going to be a crappy week. But you guys totally changed it with these 3 drops in one day. Thank you so much. So happy now. ❤
I love that this is Toni’s biggest hit, she had me singing my heart out on my way home from work today actually lol
It's so funny that the song she hated ended up becoming her biggest song. Like i said in the other video it's one of the best-selling records of all time and stayed at number 1 for 11 weeks.
You guys are too funny and love it, paying attention to just everything to the notes, instruments, the lyrics, her hair, her outfits etc. etc.!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember being a literal child and this video coming out. Such a hit in my house, that white cut out dress at the end. Memories!!!
Well like she said "The Song went number one all over the world" Thanks to all the fans listening.
You can't go wrong with Toni voice and beauty
This song is legendary! The legendary Diane Warren wrote this song! Toni's voice is perfection on this song!
Oh yeah forgot it was written by her, she is great at writing especially ballads. Love this so much.
Yes! Justice for "Unbreak My Heart"! Hopefully you got your ballad fix with this one. 😀
You`re absolutely right about modulation: the verse is written in B minor, while the chorus is in D minor, which isn`t a typical way to modulate, yet a great one.
Toni was born to be a superstar ❤❤
Definitely ready for toni Braxton week 2. Definitely check out Deborah cox “nobody’s supposed to be here” def power ballad
Love Shoulda Brought You Home is another great Toni song. And her debut single if Im not mistaken
@weeklytop5 Joe I’m so happy you got your power ballad. And I appreciate that you both are so secure in your masculinity to acknowledge Tyson Beckford’s attractiveness.
Definitely have go see her!!!
My girl Toni got HITSSSS for DAYSSSS!! We definitely need Toni week 2!!💯
I love Toni Braxton. She is my favorite artist. Thank you for reacting to Un-Break My Heart
I'm SO glad y'all got to do this one. I can't believe it wasn't on the list
Justice delivered!
Im sooooooo GLAD you guys did this 🫡🔥🔥👑
I felt like this was going to be a bonus video cause the comments was in an uproar 😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂 right advocating like no other
@@TMKJG24 lmaoo the ppl didn't care who or how much they paid for their choices they were like "we all didn't agree to this" 😂😂😂
@mzzthang3912 well we need to put up some coins or be quite 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TMKJG24 😂😂😂😂😂I agree
YESSSSSSS!!!!! HER BEST SONG!!!
Oh! They did it! Okay! 🎉 Yup, this is the one!
EDIT - OMG should we do a Babyface week?! Too many hits to just pick 5 😩
Her voice in this!!! Just gorgeously lush. So glad you guys did this one! Bravo!
They didn't do, Toni Braxton- "Love Should've Brought You Home" off the Boomerang" movie soundtrack. Another great song! ❤
YASSSS!! Thank you so much for righting this egregious wrong! 💪😂 Eva, you were so wrong for this, but at least we got an extra Toni song out of it. 🤣
You made the people happy with this one. 😊
Her love interest in this video is Tyson Beckford, who was the top male supermodel of the 90s. He had a huge brand deal with Ralph Lauren.
Now you have to listen to two more ballads!!! Spanish Guitar and How Could An Angel Break my Heart!
Yes!!!!! Joe gets his ballad! Well hold on to your glasses boo! This one of them ones! Why am I so happy for them that they get to react to this?!?!💔🎶😭
I can't believe this song and Spanish guitar wasn't on the top 5 list😢
Her voice is unbelieveable and I think it's one of the most beautiful and unique in the industry
I just love Toni Braxton
Finally. So good 😩
That’s supermodel Tyson Beckford right there. 🔥🔥🔥
The geeking out over the clothing and the hair... I cannot deal 🤣 Love it!
U two will always be my youtube faves.
Not y’all coming up with a conspiracy. 😂
“It was a run-by fruiting!” 🤣
Toni Braxton is one of the great contralto voices. The lowest voice for women - Karen Carpenter, Cher, Anne Murray and Gladys Knight are other famous contraltos. Toni has the darkest and lushest tones - her voice is so rich and beautifully textured. Gorgeous ballad.
These dudes are just adorable. Imma go ahead and subscribe now 🙄

im so glad yall came back and did this
Mike wants a belly chain hahaha!
Dude I remember when this song came out. I also had the CD lol
I’m 😂😂😂 @ Mike “immediate death”…my thoughts exactly - wow that was quick lol
Thank you! 🥹
This was my go-to hairbrush microphone in the mirror song when I back in middle/high school. 😂
Also, I didn't see "You're Making Me High" on your Toni Braxton week adventure. It's a classic, very sultry, and a great video!
The male lead is a model that was very popular. His name is Tyson Beckford. Hes black and Asian(Chimese)

Fun fact: To this day, Tyson Beckford #TB has yet put on a shirt
😆
Great call guys!
wait until you hear spanish guitar
The "A Star Is Born" reference bypasses a lot of people.
Omg this! In an interview Toni talks about how they wanted her to have her Barbara Streisand moment
TONI WILL REMEMBER FOREVER FR THIS SONG...(DIANE WARREN SONG)
The motorcycle accident sounds horrific glad you’re ok, and yes this is a classic. She sounds exactly the same live as well!
(The lady blowing the horn at you is sooo foul.😅 Glad you're okay.) Next is "Youre Making Me High" because that list was not it, TRUST❤❤❤
Designer Marc Bouwer designed that final dress - where she is singing with an orchestra.
At the Grammys and other award shows that year - where she performed this song - Marc designed several dresses (with the cutout design) that Toni wore. Basically any sexy dresses she wore for the next couple of years...was a Marc Bouwer design...for a long time.

Toni Braxton had me thinking adulthood would be filled with Tyson Beckfords cause she always had hotties in every video (especially You're Making Me High) 😂
Hello?!?!? C'mon Bryce Wilson! Ooh Lord! Chile! Imma go watch it real quick!✌🏾🎶

Ms. Braxton solidified her place in dogs history with this song and video. One of the greatest ballads of all time. Hats off to The Diane Warren
As fine as Tyson is, Toni Braxton's body in that white dress is the star of the video.
It's the same guy from Britney's Toxic video he's a model named Tyson Beckford.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Thanks guys! 😊
ooh oh we are here again.....! yes
Yall should check out Tamar Braxton, her younger sister.
And Trina Braxton or The Braxton’s. Toni is my fav but they are all talented
If you all get a chance liste to her Secrets Album it's a Bop no skips... and my favorite on the Album is " I love me some Hin"
