  • Two songs from two of our favorite singer/songwriters, Sara Bareilles & Jason Mraz... Two powerful songs mixed together for this medley! With one of my favorites to sing with, Steven Universe's Deedee Magno Hall (& OG Mickey Mouse Club, Miss Saigon... you name it)!!! Love you, Ate Deedee!
    She Used To Be Mine by Sara Bareilles (from the musical, Waitress)

    Mixing these two songs in itself has a powerful interpretation. In the Waitress, the main character sings She Used to Be Mine after realizing how much she lost herself after being trapped in her abusive marriage while she's pregnant. I Wont Give Up is almost as if she's singing to her child "When I look into your eyes, it's like watching the night sky...there's so much they hold." "I won't give up on us...Cause God knows we're worth it." This is such a beautiful mix. Even though so many of our lives turn into things we didnt ask for, we dont give up in hopes of a better life not only for the people we love but for ourselves as well. I'm not touched by songs very often but this is great

    I lost my dad yesterday, and this is the best thing I've heard today in a day full of making arrangements I never thought I'd be doing this early in life. Please don't stop making music AJ. I always love watching your videos and seeing how much joy singing brings to you. It really comes through to us!

    Today's my mom's birthday kuya ☺
    Well is suppose to be, she's in heaven for the past 10years now (she passed away due to colon cancer) and everytime I hear the song "she used to be mine" i remember how she did use to be mine 😊 i miss her a lot, her voice, her smell, her sweet hugs and good night kisses, her delicious adobo and sinigang na baboy, her hand written letters during my birthday, and most of all her words of wisdom that come from God's Holy Bible . But I'm quite comforted of the fact that at least now she doesn't need to feel anymore pain and that she's in heaven relaxing, probably singing praise songs to Christ.
    This mashup is just amazingly put together and sung by two talented beings in this life time.
    So thank you for also telling me not to give up ☺ we might have lost people along our journeys in life but I'm pretty sure God allowed that to happen because he has something extra special in store for all of us .
    Anyways God Bless you kuya aj , can't wait for you to visit philly soon . Hopefully 😍

    @toluca8371 5 років тому +1

    She Used to be Mine reminds me of my mom, who's trapped in a relationship with my abusive stepdad because they had five kids together. And I keep telling her she can leave him and we could both get jobs and I'd help to raise my sisters. She claims she's happy but I know she's not, I keep hearing horrible secrets that I wasn't supposed to know, like the time he ran off because she fought back physically, or the time he tried to smother my sister with a pillow when she one year old.
    And I dunno, hearing Deedee sing this is such great comfort.

    Once again, an absolutely beautiful performance. been supporting for 7 or 8 years now, and your work is still truly incredible. Thank you so much, keep doing what you’re doing. Your music has helped me so much with my past life issues so I couldnt thank you enough. You also became one of musical inspirations after your performance/tribute for Zoe many years ago.
    Please come back to perform at James Logan again too :’) I missed it in 2017 aaaah
    (Btw, you should collab with alex villoria! i’d love to hear your voices together.)
