The second song hits home because for most, if not all of us, we try our darned hardest to look strong and composed on the surface. We all have our own little fears, challenges, and circumstances that we internalize. We keep it all in because weakness in any form can be looked down on, can be preyed upon, and could be made fun of in this world. And oftentimes, there is no one else but God who we can turn to to be truthful and open about what we think, what we feel, and what we hope for.
hey shay..u got it right!gary valenciano is actually known as gary v. and mr.pure energy..he is 50 and done loads and loads of concert,movies and released a number of album in the past..and yes he is a big star in the philippines.. young male singers looked up at him..he is diabetic..and i believe one of his daughter actually sang a song in wish 107.5
Hey bro! I just want to say that Ivm glad that you really know how to react and listen. The lyrics is the most important thing. More power and God bless you.
I know its a bit late doing a comment on this video,I'm sorry but I cant help it but to cry every time I watched this reaction video.one thing I like shay doing a reaction video is that he listen to every word.never over talk and very genuine reaction plus of course SHAY u are very very charming on every expressions that u made.I don't know but its true from all of the video I always watched everyday u r always on my list.I also subscribe to others but u know ur my favorite together with hotsam and hugknuckles.I just loved u and my kids likes watching your reaction videos.mabuhay ka shay!!please more reaction videos from u...tnx
I swear The Warrior is a Child always make me cry everytime I hear it. I'm sure everyone relates to this song..so deep and true. Love your honest reaction!
I loved Gary V (that's what everyone calls him) growing up. His was the voice of my generation. The dude is 53 years old now (2017) and he has been established since the 80s. He is very religious (I don't hold that against him) so his songs are always so pure and clean and thoughtful. I love watching you, btw. You remind me of my brother and I miss him a lot.
Gary was one of the 3 judges in Your Face Sounds Familiar kids, who went on leave due to 2 major health issues. But I think he came back during the finals when tnt boys performed bang bang.
I'm very much of aware of who Gary V is now. I've seen him perform live on several occassions during my trips to Manila. Definitely worth checking out my Philippines vlogs! 😎
Gary V is actually what he’s called in his prime years. Been singing since the 80s I believe but he doesn’t look like he’s ageing. I’m younger than he is but about couple decades but he looks younger than I am.
This is one of my favorite reaction of gary v's performance your actually almost on point and i would see why you could say that he is equivalent to regines in this performance, he can be no doubt, i can see that gary delivered the song pretty well and you reacted the same as we felt the meaning of the song, he is one of my favorite legends and we are so blessed he is still so very good in his age, his son also been reacted by the fine brothers react channel dancing called "super selfie" and gary v was in it in the last video dancing :)
Hi Shay! I really dig your channel. You are very transparent with your reactions. sometimes when you feel touched by the songs i feel like crying with you. anyway, you are very engaging and funny. keep it up. God bless. 😊
You are very right when you compared Gary V. with Regine. Actually Gary V was already a huge star, collecting platinum record awards, sold out concerts when Regine was just starting her professional career. Gary is a household name here coz his first song were usually sang in weddings and the 2nd song in funerals.
thanks... he's one of my fave artist ever since he started 'till now...tho he sounds different now but voice quality still there...pray for his safety so i can still hear more songs from him 👍😎
gary is a singers royalty. one of the kings of philippine music and philippines standard for singing is very very high. i am a poor singer based on Filipino standard. but when l sang in a team building session in front of my former bosses from sydney they praised my singing up high to the clouds. just sharing it, no boasting intended.
Mr. Pure Energy, Gary V. is turning 54yo this month, advance happy birthday Bro.Gary V. and God bless you more. The Lord is fighting for you, especially on your Type 1 Diabetes. Be strong and take courage always! :)
Wow you really got affected by the performance. You should see him in his concerts especially the old ones! I was able to watch some of his concerts and they were AWESOMEEEEEE!!!!
He’s my favorite Filipino male singer together with Martin Nievera. Many of his songs are songs of praise. And my favorite song of him is Take Me Out Of The Dark My Lord. He is called “ Mr. Pure Energy”
If you notice the upload date this is an old reaction video. I've seen Gary live on multiple occasions. Definitely worth checking out my travel vlogs to the Philippines, there's 5 seasons on the channel :)
Gary V and the two songs got you real good Shay!👍 He revived those songs in his album entitled "Revive". You should check that out, its really a good or rather AMAZING album!
Hi shay mate his my all time favorite bro. His a legend of filipino original filipino music or OPM as we call it. The second son was an original song..totally brother his equivalent of regine Velasquez. Nice reactions by the way brother!😊
You should listen to his original composition "Take me out of the dark"... The original version...with the lyrics... It's the one that you'll never get used to..it will always get u...everytime...
Regine Velasquez - Asia's Songbird Lani Misalucha - Asia's Nightingale Martin Nievera - Concert King Gary V - Mr. Pure Energy these 4 are the best singers in the country hands down..the icons
He was actually the judge of KZ when she was just auditioning .. soo yeah . im 21 now and when I was a little kid he was actually a good singer back then . hahha
Gary Valenciano is amazing! That is a Christian song...he likes to sing Christian music...Regine Velasquez, Zha Zha, Sarah Geronimo, Jed Madela, Angeline Quinto, Rachel Ann Go, and Lea Salonica are a few great once you can search...
Hi Shay! Gary V has another performance on Wish 107.5. Please react to Gary Valenciano covers Spain (Chick Corea) LIVE on Wish 107.5 Bus. It's an upbeat performance. Thank you. :)
Idol I'm a big fan, hope u can visit davao city. Hope we can met together chilin..lot of good beaches in here..samal island...excited with your voice! Godbless!
Oh my goodness! You are freaking adorable!!! (Gary Valenchano--lol) It's okay that you pronounced it wrong. A names are mispronounced most of the time) Love the reactions. Thanks for the good vibes.

SHAY didn't know they distribute it there. The one who owns the brand is a Filipino based in LA. I manage that brand here in the Philippines together with Vans and some other brands like Illest, Stussy, Obey, Huf, etc. mostly are street.
