So timely... everyone needs a messiah, in Jesus's name, in this uncertain times. God bless you, Brad, for your faith. I am likewise happy to know Mori and Dave has Jesus in their lives. May this song touch your viewers and return to the Way of Jesus.
This is Gary’s wife Angeli. Clarification needed! Gary composed the music and the late director Freddie Santos wrote these lyrics for the play First Name. The original composition was done in our home in The Philippines in 1988 at 12 midnight. So when Freddie was very sick (he died last December) his dearest friends from Trumpets and Stages and Genesis planned for Gary to re-arrange and he played the keyboards for this spectacular masterpiece of Mori. Praise God ! Thank you for this wonderful reaction video.
Hi Ms. Angeli. Thank you for the clarification. I love this song way back when i was in college. Best regards to Gab and Paulo. I was the little school nurse during their elementary years at CCCS, Arcegas.
she was crying did you see that big tear drop fall down her cheek morissette is a very spiritual person she is very active in her faith and in her church... you can tell it in her personality
guys,to all the people around the globe..God intended all filipino singers to sing a christian songs for all to come and accept Him /Jesus our Messiah..the son of God our Father!
About Christian music, the 1980's were (in my opinion) the Golden Age. Petra and Sweet Comfort Band are 2 of my favorites Somehow the 90's seemed to take a nosedive, especially what was sung in Church. My friends and I called it "Jesus is my girl friend music". If I have a bit of Calvinism in my theology it's because I found that they keep singing the old reformation hymns where the lyric REALLY said something. The other fail of the 90's was mindless repetition, they would crank out 2 lines until your brain was numb.
So glad you reacted to this! Others have given the background to the origin of this song. (It being from a larger musical work by Freddie Santos. ) It was streamed online via a concert site. I was able to see it several times. When it came to her part I was blown back! It is one of the most beautiful performances ever. Those were indeed real tears, as was relayed by her label head who was at the filming in the comments of that video. Gary V also shared there ,that he had never arranged one of his songs ever for anyone before doing this for Morissette. The result ,as you said and I agree, is one of the most hauntingly beautiful performances she's done. Morissette is a devout believer and VERY vocal about her faith. Thank you for your support for her on your channel always!
In about 17 minutes direk Freddie Santos penned Gary's most endearing inspirational song. Without hesitation, direk Freddie called his friend Gary and asked if he could consider writing music to the lyrics he wrote. At first, Gary said he was busy , then direk Freddie was surprised when Gary invited him in the house. They went upstairs (Gary studio in the attic), they went up 5pm and didn't come down until 5am. Gary was glued to his keyboards the whole time putting melody to the lyrics. On December 17, 2020 the award winning director Freddie Santos died peacefully and left us with this song.
It is not just one of her best performances, it's my most favourite performance of anyone, anywhere, anytime, if you didn't believe in God before, you will now.
The only problem is that this reaction has more views than the original glorious performance. That's totally messed up. Please support Morissette Amon more than the reactor. She deserves it.
Dave's, Morissette's fiance's parents are missionaries in the Philippines. They run an orphanage. Really strong committed Christians. So yeah, Mori is a believer...thank God!
Yes as long as she doesn't SALE HER SOUL TO THE DEVIL "The Music Industry," then hopefully, HOPEFULLY she'll be ok and safe. * I say this because if you remember that other young Filipino singer Charice Pempengco, who also possessed a Beautiful voice then went to America and really started her singing career? Well, that little cute and beautiful girl with the angelic voice, is no longer a she, because Charice is now a Transgender "man" and goes by the name Jake Zyrus. Like I said, DO NOT SALE YOUR SOUL to the Hollywood Music Industry or ANY Huge Cooperate Music Industry for that matter, . . . Period!
She is a firm believer in Jesus Christ... Here in the Philippines, though she is already very popular, with a large fan base, she remains so friendly, so approachable, so down-to-earth, and that is why we love her more.😊🇵🇭
i'm literally losing my mind right now finding this out. I just gave my life to christ and i've loved her for years now. So unbelievably happy to see this.
They don't find each other. God makes a way and God brings them into your life just at the most perfect timing. Just like this song after what the world went through with Covid. God knew we would searching.
Morissette Amon voice is like the Queen of Disney Song👑😍🇵🇭 it's sound so beautiful and majestic... She's the Best and no.1 Singer today for me 😍💗💗 Thanks
Yes, Brad, Morissette is worshipping much more than performing. This is so personal. I was tearing up and shook to the core as i saw that tear dropped. ❤️❤️❤️
Glory to God in the Highest!!! Thank you Jesus for being our Messiah... God bless the composer, singer, and your program...,, more gospel songs please🙏🙏🙏💐💐💐❤️❤️❤️
Yes, she is a believer too. One guy who was one of the few people during the video’s filming wrote a comment that there was one take that all of them just got so overwhelmed by the song and the Spirit that they all cried - and apparently that’s where that crying clip in the end was taken. And i agree, many christian music nowadays really lack depth, that’s why songs like this is just sooo refreshing like, a spring in the desert.
Lyrics are by Freddie Santos. The words, arrangement, and vocals are so powerful. The passion and emotion Mori brings to this song is unreal. Freddie and Gary are musical geniuses. Loved this so much.
Mr Steele, thank you for not being ashamed of your faith and now for reviewing Mori's worship in song. We have seen the playful, cutting, romantic and rocking side of Asia's Phoenix...but now we can appreciate her emotional and inspirational offerings here and also in Love You Still and Phoenix.
I've been following Mori's song for a year now and I'm now rethink my faith as well. I missed the times that I just cried out to God whenever I'm happy, I'm afraid, I'm sad. Thank you Lord for giving us such a blessing from Morissette.
Way back 1990, my first professional gig allowed me to work overseas and during the most trying times, I would draw inspiration and courage from this song by Freddie Santos, sang by Gary V. Now, full circle, with Morissette (my favorite artist these days) , I could not help but be thankful for this cover. Draw inspiration and allow yourself to be an instrument of God's love and assurance to fellow men that everything will be alright. Thank you very much for this.
Soul-piercing lyrics combined with angelic voice and spiritually uplifting emotional delivery and performance! Praise the Lord for the spectacular musical talent of Mori and GaryV..❤️
I was a big Gary V fan when I was living in the Philippines in the early 90's. I was a fairly new believer when I was there, and this song, along with "Take me out of the Dark" always made me very emotional....still does to this day. Morissette was perfect for this song. Thanks to Gary V and Mori for this masterpiece!

This is the most beautiful song I have ever heard. She must have a direct link with the Lord. I think she is feeling this for her own life -- crying at the end.
The only thing i can say about this beautiful video is that it couldn't of came out at a more better time than this... we need this song to heal what we are feeling in this world today... for the time is truly coming its a real wake up call. nothing is what we recognize anymore the former things will come to pass....HAVE HOPE IN him who loved us first!
The most honest and emotional reaction ive ever heard...i never get tired of watching this,one of my favorite plus morissete singing this..she gived justice with the lyrics..i literally cry everytime i watched this..
Jesus loves you. Even though all have sinned and deserves punishment, Christ offered His life to pay the debt of our sins. Believe, Trust and Repent. God bless you.
We're still here till the end. That had me in tears, utterly vulnerable and humbling. With the way this world is today I think we all needed this to put things into perspective
Mori is no doubt an exciting singer. No matter what position she is in she delivers them astonishingly more so with this one she is kneeling bec she is singing a prayer. Amen to that.
Morissette deliver the song so passionate,emotional whole heartedly that speaks every individual faith in Christ.I always teary eyed when i heard this song from the original Gary V.and now for Morissette version.Thanks Brad we are on the same thoughts.❤ .God bless
Morissette's praise and worship songs: Man of sorrows Ocean (hill song) Take & Receive ( lyrics ) What a beautiful name Jesus take the wheel Way maker Lead me lord
This performance captured my soul and is definitely a tear jerker. Loved that you reacted to it. I’ve been waiting for people to react to this. Peace Brad!
Since you're a man of faith, and a fan of Morissette, you MUST check out her rendition of 'Oh Holy Night' she did for Favor Church. The full original lyrics in a non-Christmassy hillsong version. Just hauntingly beautiful!!
This song orignally sung by Gary Valenciano. I heard this song nth times, the lyrics and how it sang.. makes me cry. And leads me to God over and over again.
Brad good morning OMG Love your reaction sorry I know you would react to this differently MORISSETTE Always bring the best of everything i been waiting for you to react this song.powerful pure and simple incredible
I haven’t listened to Morissette. And I certainly had not heard this. Thank you for introducing me to her and, especially, to this song. Messiah’s Love is displayed here.
What a magical music, spirit filled lyrics. my tears was falling while i'm listening to it..oh thank you Lord for this composition! bro it drove me push the subs. botton...i am a filipino, music lover, but never been a singer...thank you for appreciating our very own talent in Morissete..
I truly believe (through my exhaustive research) that Miss Morisette Amon is the Greatest Female Pop Singer Alive and the Greatest Female Pop Singer of her Generation. Whenever I hear Miss Morisette sing I know that I am in the presence of Greatness. With all due respect to Miss Morisette and her husband I find it absolutely impossible NOT fall in love with her. You can interpret that any way you want. Leo de los Reyes Musician San Francisco CA USA
You're the 5th reactor that I've watched and I still have the waterworks going. That rendition hits me to the core. It's the Sinner - Messiah thing ya know. Dayum Morissette! This is brutal. Thanks for your reaction.
Very happy to know Mori is a believer! Gospel has always been my best music! I never get tired hearing it. Hopefully u cud add the full song uninterrupted at the very end so we could enjoy its entirety. God bless us all!
It is indeed a good question to all of us who heared this song. I had tears in myself and also asking. Looks like we share the same direction who heared this song. So touching that you can put many words of praise to Gary who made this song like a message and Morisette has delivered at her best as always. May God bless and guide us all. Thanks for sharing this video, Brad.
Yes.This is my favorite song in my life which was done by Mr.Pure energy Gary Valenciano in late 80's Can you feature Gary V's versiom , please? Thanks much. GOdbless
I know your a man of faith, she recently done a gospel song with fiance Dave Lamar called MAN OF SORROWS for the FAVOR CHURCH Easter concert, she is very much a lady of god, she also done a masterpiece of o holy night on Christmas Eve.
