Gabriela Sélavy perfect way to say that. She’s far bigger than that show.

James arthur too. I love them both❤

Gabriela Sélavy sawyer Fredrick

What about Kelly Clarkson

yup!!

Mutlu Sarıtaş we dont know that about her tho. She’s strong she’s got a hard mind. She knows what right. She’ll do just great

I think Grace is in control.

hah, don't think they could even if they wanted too XD

Mutlu Sarıtaş not al Disney child stars are ruined look at zendaya who is currently in Australia to get her award for woman of the year

I get the nature of what you’re saying. I’ve almost made my own comments on this video multiple times. But the spirit of your comment is powerful and positive enough that I’ve never wanted it to hide under another comment and nobody has highlighted it yet. I’m not all about trying to force others to believe the way I believe. I think the world is more beautiful with multiple views and cultures. Having said that... I’d like to share my view. Cooperation’s and places on the map... locations... don’t cause destruction to people. People that see opportunities to use their power and influence cause destruction to people. Walt Disney built Disneyland for the love of his dreams, family and children AND grandchildren. So it’s hard for me to hear so many seeing it be the capital that causes pain in families and children. He wanted to make an affordable place to find magic in the world. Where everyone, regardless of income, could come together in inspiration. He wanted them to fall in love with his imagination... not his image. If you’ve ever published your dreams into the world... even a comment you’ve made on KZfaq, you can easily see the way your work can be perverted and twisted into an intention you didn’t have. It’s sad that pedofiles opportunistically join where children are. Outside of schools you can see, easily, how many registered live as close to the radius they’re legally bound to. The same way people hungry for power and money congregate around affordable businesses that have promise. Opportunity to have access into such opportunities through work or connection to power isn’t much different. It makes sense that opportunities for artists are given by people who don’t have their best interest in mind. You guys are amazing for speaking up and saying you don’t want that anymore! I really don’t think shutting down Disney will create that kind of safety. But I think if we all buy from artists, and support companies that protect and provide protection for people we’ll take the power from those who don’t. That might be too extreme for some people in the world. But writing emails to companies about what you want to see and what you don’t want to see happening is an easy way to help the correction. People sell what we’re willing to buy. People gain power with the money and influence we give to them. If you tell companies what protections you want to see, they do listen when the public need gets bigger than the expense of the protection we want to see in place. Writing to Disney about wanting to see all people involved with children having background checks like our teachers get is a start. Or causing children to be in only group settings with an unbiased advocate for them? Sadly, we’re even seeing educators have inappropriate relationships with students too. So there will always be a “ball dropped,” so to speak. About Grace Vanderwaal... I hope her amazing family stays close enough to her to keep her grounded and protected. And I hope she’s blessed enough to grow up healthy and with out the hardships of depression or mental illness. Which often times is worsened severely by an unpredictable artist’s schedule and demands on performance. Living in the spotlight has to be one of the most difficult ways to keep yourself through scrutiny. Thanks for sharing and letting me.

YUP

I think this every time hahaha. It’s because they have impeccable taste in music and a world class sound team.

It can be deepest song in the world or more boring standard pop, who knows? but anyway, people these days drown in a cup of water so anything can be deep enough. As long as she doesn't change her style drastically she may be fine

Be here now >.

DKCM is a masterpiece. It’s amazing.

Yeah instead she just started making bubbly pop with imo a lot less heart. Idk if that's what she wants to be making or if it's industry stuff but either way it makes me kinda sad. Like people don't take her as seriously because of it

@@whatcanidooo I would not say The City and Poser are bubbly pop

Like I'm a HUGE Amy Winehouse fan and yes what you just said is exact. Spot on! She just gives me the same feeling as Amy did. Love this girl!

@@taylorbohn3038 100x more class and humility than Winehouse though. That chick was a trainwreck and a half.

HeartlandRanchTV have some fucking respect to the artist that paved the way to a new kind of artist. Including grace van der waal and many others.

I think she is already the guitarrist b1tch... I'm sorry for her, she is singing with a masculine tone that is forced you can notice. The aesthetics of her say a lot too. She has a witchy dress and I don't like the body language of the guitarrist at all. I think Grace has lost her essence sadly

@@mauigna07 You have a sick mind

You point out something. Her brilliant talent is that she's totally comfortable performing totally stripped down with nowhere to hide - and when she made a mistake she just smiled and kept going. As a fan I'm perfectly happy to listen to the occasional honest mistake in order to get honesty through and through. I love Grace more than I've loved an artist in many years.

Yep she is now the opener for Imagine Dragons.

wow opening for imagine dragons is definitely hitting the high point. can you even imagine?? opening for a band as illustrious, profound and substantial as imagine dragons? i think thats almost as good as opening for jessica von rabbit

wait, i DONT have to listen?

ask grace if she listens to sadomator

feg it what is your issue with Grace?? Someone sounds a little jealous...

Grace is M A G I C A L

The real reason I clicked play. So glad I did.

@@lia_overload OMG! I didn't read this before I made my comment....LOL! Always nice to know my quirky taste in clothing is shared.

Where is it from

The perfect dress for Stargirl!

You're not wrong. Her name is Melissa Dougherty and among the many things that she is, she is a music instructor. She has also said that Grace is her favorite vocalist so I would say she is definitely very proud of her 🙂

LollipopPpl

Kkl p

Despite only one tour together, Grace's band is like family to her. Evident with most of them, including Grace, getting matching tattoo's at the end of the tour. Grace has become particularly close to her guitarist, as you have noticed. She's actually accompanied Grace to many small performances like this one, as her only musical back-up, also singing back-up on a few songs.

@@djmoon8373 Melissa and Ben have actually been on more than one tour with Grace, and so has Nolan actually if you count the Florence & the Machine tour and his brief trumpet performance for Grace's cover of "See You Again" during the Imagine Dragons Tour. As for the tattoo on her wrist that she shares with her brother and some of her band members, they actually got those in the middle of her Ur So Beautiful tour. At least, that's when fans became aware of the tattoo. It was around September 4th when we first saw it, and the last day of the tour was September 21st

She really does ( no hate )

@@charlotte-3173 but a beautiful one :)

@@periasamyramesh6001 she is absolutely pretty, no doubt about that

@@charlotte-3173 your username and your pfp are 💕💕💕

Thanks 👍🏾

Thanks

paulisthelegend Because she’s real!

They are so pure... love those little breaks.

Love what you said,the soul seek what is true it reasonate so much with me.

Right on, I love Tiny Desk. Each episode is such a treat and really showcases the artists.

Justin Hayden ecsqezz me???

Why U 😂

Welcome!

Is Just the Beginning

And this week she is opening for Florence and the Machine for a few shows

I love Florence and honestly just discovered Grace. I’m equally amazed, very unique and in control of her art

@@ryannguyen8477 truly said she has an immense control over her voice and the music too . U should hear other songs of her . She truly is an amazing artist

John Smith so much better!

Agreed.

Happydays all her performences are epic ❤

Mutlu, there are better causes that need help than this one

She' needs to be barricaded from people like Max Martin · Lukasz Gottwald who basically wrote a majority of the pop songs we hear on the radio today, and why it seems like all the music sounds the same, and is crap. Look them up on wiki for the songs they've written and the performers they've worked for. It will surprise you!

Can't see that ever happening Mut

Don't see that happening. She has been asked, given the terrible choice, what she'd be giving up, writing or performing. She said performing. She has also very strong ideas about what things in life are worth pursuing, and chasing fame is not at the forefront.

Because the motivations of all humans are the same, right? Not so. Not by a wide margin.

James grace has stole alot of harts.there is alot of fans who love grace and her music.

Mean while in the real world , Humans are sometimes born with great talent without the intervention of some alleged invisible super being . Sorry but all the credit for Grace's talent and genius belongs to Grace and Grace alone .

@@richdandanell2911 Thank you for keeping it real. I admire Grace quite a bit, and she deserves the credit.

okay :)

no

Welcome!

I am surprised as well.

"freedom" the best word I've heard used to describe this amazing song.

Liliana Kohann wow love your comment, Freedom thanks for that

Thank you!!!

Check out Grace's newest upload, a recap of her performing at Madison Square Garden. t-shirt speak. :-) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pruKfrJ-ta-vqas.html

Oh, wow. I watched that video and wondered why you wanted me to see it. Now I noticed the last words in your comment "t-shirt speak" and immediately went to see the video and noticed the t-shirt. "Freedom" WOW!!! Thank you.

Absolutely right, with one small correction. This was recorded a year ago March, she wasn't in high school yet. Which makes it even more impressive, of course.

She may be beyond that idea of a star...

She's all ready a star in my ears.

For anyone, regardless of one's age, it's fabulous and so much more than just impressive to write songs like Grace VanderWaal does. :)

And actually she wrote it when she was 13. If she's not a genius I don't know who is.

I don't want she grow up :c

data_analysis_ cosby calm down? All I said was I am curious to see where she stands as an artist in a decade. calm down, boy.

feg it oh poor thing... are you feeling ignored? Someone isn’t getting the attention they should be getting at home. If you need to talk I’m here for you

Michael Scott same

Pie de Limón yo tampoco 😂

Allie Sherlock is another one. She's not got the same attention as Grace does but she will soon. Allie also writes and sings and plays with abilities beyond her 13-14 years. Her vocals r also astounding as is Grace's

Who's the 4 others?

Ya, who are the other four?

@@asosyalpicimamk you are an annoying and irritating pig. Don't you have a life than trolling a talented child. But I guess you'll be always an irritating and annoying pig that you are.

@@asosyalpicimamk well pig. You should be on their video bashing them.But you probably are too afraid of their fan comming after you. So you pick on a talented child who you have said she has done nothing wrong to you.

@@asosyalpicimamk By the way who gives you the right to put other people sin on Grace shoulder. You must have really f**k upbringing. It just shows what a f**k up parents you got.

I don’t have hope for contemporary pop music, I do, however, have a great deal of faith in Grace. She’s a prodigy, no doubt about it.

@@asosyalpicimamk All true, but judging others by their predecessors' missteps is both misguided and extremely foolish. So she signed to a Sony-owned label. So did Front 242 and they cranked out two incredible albums under their umbrella... in the same year. Don't judge a musician by their label-mates. You could miss out on some amazing music, that way.

May I like to add ... Grace reaches in yanked that heart out and return it in a better condition.. if that's possible

nam tran yes. It hurts first then it feels better.

14 since January

I love seeing super talented kids, like, when I was 14 I was an idiot.

Lauren Hawkins wow didn’t think she was still that young

Joe Mars..... hahaha makes 2 of us.

Joe Mars i am 25 and i still am an idiot

Steven Boyd dang, that is true.

She was 14 here 13 when she wrote the first two songs and helped write the 3rd one clearly with Johnny nashs permission

She's 15 today Jan. 15

Grace has released an Ep(perfectly imperfect) at the age of 12 and released an Lp (just the beginning) at the age of 13. She haven't released anything at the age of 14. Even though she has recorded some new songs that that will release after her 15 birth day. Just so you know.

I thought so too. But then I heard her sing covers and I wasn't so sure anymore.

Another Fan of the Ramapo concert, apparently. ;-)

Yes, WHEN I go see her perform, I need that song!!

also one of the most ignored , go figure

sandomen123 it is but she also had two bonus songs that I would argue that are just as good lungs and hope for change. Hope for change would broke the charts had officially been part of the album

Yaah

Ikr

It kills me with it's beauty everytime I hear it. ❤️

Melissa Doherty is a very accomplished artist with a beautiful voice and guitar skills unmatched by even male players. And she is Beautiful ❤️

Brendan O'Toole everything she sings is amazing, and she can do it all... could you imagine her doing her own epic classic rock song? Her rasp, her control, her emotionality... it would be EPIC.

Ella M can you believe she wrote at 13?!

Keep strong, and God bless you too!!

That is how I reacted to this song.

I was thinking what an awesome job she did singing this song, then saw your comment. Best live version I've heard from her....

I still get chills every time I listen to Grace singing Darkness Keeps Chasing Me. Maybe 'listen' isn't the right word - you 'experience' Grace's music.

i was blown away by her performance of DKCM.....heartfelt/heartwrenching, & it hits you like one is punched in the gut.....awesome rendition with just her GOD-given voice, & a guitarist (a good one) as accompaniment.....Grace, i love you to the moon & back.❤️🤗😍...GOD bless you abundantly!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽 an ardent 63 year old fan here in 🇨🇦.....

My biggest comment here would be if this or the MTV video is better, either way, they are both WOW good.

Mojodojo sweetest? Powerful.

Me too! Cannot wait for more original songs from her. Every one she sings is gorgeous, and her lyrics are incredible.

Can you believe she wrote enough songs for an EP and decided to discard them?! Even if she doesn't record them I'd love to hear her try them out on one of her live broadcasts because artists are not always the best judge of their own works.
