Did anyone else felt like crying at Caleb expression at 'she doesn't exist now'?

The fact that he sounds like hes gonna burst into tears at any moment really adds to the effect of the song

How caleb prepares his covers 1 Think about the character 2 Understand the character 3 BE THE CHARACTER

Caleb actually looks like he's gonna cry damn

Caleb: hitting that high notes at “they keep on turning pages” Me: my heart felt that powerful emotion in his voice 😭

Bro. I cried. Speechless

The way you sung "isn't that lovely?? Isn't it cool?!" Sounded like you were gonna cry and I was high key gonna cry with you.

Am I the only one who thinks Caleb should duet “Independent Together” with Jonathan Young? That song with a full metal cover would be amazing!!

Cayleb: **singing** His neighbors: he does this so often, but should we check on him? Yes? No? I mean this time he sounds upset about something

Audience: waits in the garden* Caleb: "I'll show you how it's done."

"And still it takes you ages, to see that no ones there, to see that no ones there, to see that no ones there. Everyones gone on... without you" Most relatable part of the song. If you don't... have true friends.

Caleb's facial changes in the final Drifts are surreal. He goes from grieving to realization to fury in a seamless movement, and its beautiful.

JESUS CHRIST THE AMOUNT OF EMOTION YOU PUT INTO YOUR COVERS

“Is this how it works, am I doing it right” always get me. Spinel just wants to have fun with friends more than anything, hoping she doesn’t mess up or ruin her chances of that

2:30 For me this is the best part of the song and he sang it gorgeously, you can hear the despair this lines have "Isn't that lovely, isn't that cool..." the pain starts to rise, at "and isn't it cruel" he sound almost as if he's singing through his teeth in anger, sadness, pain, and at "and aren't i a fool to have..." i can almost hear someone who's about to break down into tears since it cracks more than when he sang "cruel".

The way his voice broke on "the sound of her laughter"

Caleb: *sings the ending* Me: And this children, was the moment my heart had completely shattered and never ever recovered

Me: Ok, I'm not going to cry because I've heard the original version and multiple covers. I'm ready, I can do this, and I won't cry. Caleb: Here... Me: *I need a minute*

At the "see that no ones there" He looks happy, but sounds like he's been sobbing for hours

Anyone notices that celeb's background slowly start to become more and more dark? you actually can see the change of the character ... that's so deep.

[SPINEL] Here in the Garden Let's play a game I'll show you how it's done Here in the Garden Stand very still This'll be so much fun And then she smiled That's what I'm after A smile in her eyes The sound of her laughter Happy to listen Happy to play Happily watching her drift away Happily waiting All on my own Under the endless sky Counting the seconds Standing alone As thousands of years go by Happily wondering Night after night Is this how it works? Am I doing it right? Happy to listen Happy to stay Happily watching her drift away You keep on turning pages for people who don't care People who don't care about you And still, it takes you ages to see that no one's there See that no one's there See that no one's there Everyone's gone on without you Finally something Finally news About how the story ends She doesn't exist now Survived by her son And all of her brand new friends Isn't that lovely? Isn't that cool? And isn't that cruel And aren't I a fool to have Happily listened Happy to stay Happily watching her drift Drift Drift away

Audience: Caleb: DRIEEEEEFT AWAY

I’m hoping he does the “Let Us Adore You” reprise!!

"And isn't it *CRUEL* " Yes, yes it's cruel to do this to my poor little heart

Caleb: “Isn’t that CRUEL?” Me: BAD TEARS! STAY OUT OF MY EYES!!!! *dramatically sobs* 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

His confusion in his eyes during "am I'm doing it right?" I- SOBS

"Everyone's gone on without you.." *Whenever you get a rock stuck in your shoe and your friends won't wait for you to get it out*

At this part of the movie I was like: "Holy shit. Pink, you monster..."

Anyone heard him say dreeeeeeeift instead of driiiiiiiiiiift until that last drift?

This reminds me so much abandoned pets, especially dogs. People impulse buy them, then they get bored of them or can’t handle their energy and needs. So they just discard them off at a park or the middle of nowhere. And since the pets don’t know any better, they wait for their owners to come back for them.

0:38 *that emotion though* He legit sounded like he was going to cry

HIS EXPRESSIONS AND EMOTIONS IN HIS VOICE OW MY HEART

Caleb: *singing this song* My eyes: *Yeet tears*

95% of the comments: Talking about how Caleb said Drift weird the first time 4% of the comments: Talking about how they almost cried at how he looked when he sung a verse 1%: Documenting the other 99% while trying to differ from them

When you started the "Finally something" part I thought you were actually crying and I got chills through to the end

When you’ve been abandoned by enough “friends” so that this song always makes you cry. This song is almost every friend I’ve ever had. Now I’ve got two very good friends. But I’m so scared the same things gonna happen again.

No one: Not a single soul: Caleb: dreeeft away

2:44 The transition from sad and heartbroken to anger was 👌👌

Does anyone else feel like Caleb changing his pronunciation of ‘drift’ at the end actually has a strong impact? I get caught up listening to the “drift” with the ‘ee’ sound, then when he says it with ‘ih’ at the end it hits differently.

Okay, i think i'm over this song- *Gets notification* Well apparently i was wrong

Last time I was this early, Pink Diamond still existed

Caleb: *Sings this* My tears: Aight imma head out

1 view 4 likes Caleb: I see this as an absolute win

This legit sounds like a song about coping with loss

caleb: *sings* Me: *crying* mom:are you crying? me: its called sweating

People keep saying: "He says drieeeeeeeeft!" But am I the only one who noticed he said: "Pagieees" and "Agieees"?

can we just take a moment to appreciate this part: Isn't that LOOVELY? LIKE BRO THAT LOVELY CHANGED MY LIFE-

OH MY GOD THIS IS SO GOOD ITS LIKE I CAN HEAR THE BREAKING OF THE VOICE AND IT SOUNDS SO GOOD FKRKANF

Caleb: *perfectly singing drift away* Me: **super excited because I've been waiting for this cover for a long time**

*crying* Friends watching this with me: what’s wrong? Me: It’s Blue Diamond guys it’s not me

*Notices Caleb sings most of the song with a god to honest smile* Me: GET THIS MAN A MF DOCOR HE IS NOT OK

YES THIS IS WHAT IVE BEEN WAITING FOR LIKE SPINEL IN THE GARDEN Edit: thanks for the 💖 Caleb!

Most of the reason this video made me cry is not only because of the song being sad in general, but how well he portrayed and became the character, showing his facial expressions as the songs emotions developed within him made it all the more real.

This is how many times caleb said happy ↓

I was a *minute* late and there's already so many comments- ((1.2k holy- wow I didn't think I'd get that many likes thank you everyone

I’m convinced when ever Caleb is singing a song from spinel he turns into a psychotic little gremlin

"I cant believe my mom would do something so cruel." sigh "Actually, I can totally believe that."

The emotion The look on his face *The feels* SPINEL

Nobody: Someone: phew he did not change the lyrics Caleb: *DREEEEEEEEEEFT DREEEEEEEEEFT DREEEEEEEEEEEEeEeeeEEEEEFT....away.*

Spinel: **sings this song** Caleb: *hold my microphone*

ur facial expressions give the vide that YOU are the one feeling all this pain, and i’m living for it

I like this song because it ignores bullying and being nice to others, but covers a problem I have. Loneliness and abandonment. Things school ignores because they can't force people to be friends with you, I respect spinel for covering real problems that are common, but ignored.

Nobody: Not one single soul: Caleb: DREEFT

Best male version of this song ever period. 👌👌

It’s absolutely incredible how he can bring so much emotion to a song

1:42 the look on his face, he’s trying to find the next note... He nailed it!!!

my dog when I leave for 4 minutes; 1:00

It's weird how he says "drift" but anyways this is a beautiful cover like always!💞💞💞💫🌼🌼🌻🌻🌻

At ‘isn’t that lovely’ it sounds like he’s actually hurting Side note; am I the only person who can’t cry through songs? I’m not trying to be rude, the song and the way he’s singing it really show pain, but I just don’t cry by songs

1:40-3:10 is my life in a song. This had me on the verge of crying.

no one: not a soul: every comment ever: drieft yo :0 man this actually almost made me cry, you do spinel so well and it makes it feel so powerful

I recently found you from your “other friends” video and I am floored by the amount of emotion and depth you put into your voice and expression. Seeing you act out every verse makes the song that much more impactful!

I love how Caleb puts his all in every song he sings, not just in the vocals but the acting as well. The emotion he expresses is surprisingly investing.

last time i was this early spinel was still waiting in the garden

Spinell plays Drift away* Steven: She is goneeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I gotta say, the emotion you put into your covers are... amazing, Your Other Friends cover had this... unhinged, right amount of crazy and angry And your Drift Away has hardly controlled sadness, regret and mourning, It's really really inspiring!!

I really love how you put so much emotion into singing this Caleb! You really be out here making folks all feely inside. 😭🙌🏻

caleb this cover is gorgeous as always but if you pronounce drift like “dreeeft” i’m gonna lose my marbles

I know it's pretty late but I listened to this song so many times during these past few years. I am having a very hard time emotionally and this song expresses exactly what I am feeling right now and what I felt all the other times because of the problems I'm having. I know that it's just a cover but that's the main thing, it's a cover and it's wonderdul, I'm sure that a lot of us love your voice and your music, even your new songs that you made yourself, those are amazing and we're all proud of what you did and done. Thank you a lot for making one of the songs that always makes me feel less alone then I already am and I really hope that if you read this, Caleb Hyles, I've put a smile on your face. Thank you a lot and no matter what, I will always love your music (I really hope it's not cringe or anything)

YESSSSSS AFTER YOU POSTED THE OTHER FRIENDS COVER IVE BEEN WA I T I N G FOR THIS NOTIFICATION

when jonathan young hasn't called you to make another collab in months

caleb: *sings this song* me: cough cough my heart is defenetly not crying also me : *starts throwing up rainbows*

Level 1 English speaking noob: 0:52 Level 100 English speaking boss: 2:55

Anyone else notice that Caleb is wearing the same shirt he wore in his "Stronger Than You" cover?

Imagine if instead of spinels gem turning upside down it actually forms a crack in the center. 😭

Nobody: Caleb: *_drieft_*

I can feel the powerful emotion of betrayal when he say, “and aren’t I am a fool?”

Your voice singing this actually makes me cry, the original one doesn't

For anyone wondering: He's (probably) saying drift like "dreeft" because it is easier to hold out "ee" over "i/eh", and he wants the cover to sound nice

AHHHH!!!! My request has been heard!!! Thank you Caleb!!! Your voice is amazing as always!!! And I’m first!

It is the fact you get into character that makes the songs so great. You can't do show tunes any other way without sounding amateurish.

As I was watching the "do it for her" cover

GO OFF CALEB AHH I LOVE THESE SO MUCH!!💗😍😫

Ya know, I used to not like him because the amount of emotion he showed came off as creepy to me, but ya know what I feel now? That’s the good - he gets into it. He’s super passionate and he gets emotional during his songs.

I haven't been this early since cookie cat was is being made

No one: Caleb: "It keeps on turning pagiis" "It still takes you aegis" =_=:O

This is insane! It's like he's the character himself! I can feel the emotions of the character through his singing!!!😭💕

I love the feeling in this, it’s so emotionally charged, sarah has the voice but you just can’t get this feeeeling

... Well, i guess i was ... *Happy to listen, Happy to stay* ... Okay I cried a bit. Ya need a hug \(T.T)/
