Shout out to the Mt Druitt Samoan Choir singing backup

Sadly he lost his great friend/fellow performing side kick. He said in an interview he didn’t want it to be a sad song but a song of celebration, celebrating the life his mate had plus reminiscing on the great times they shared. Guy can’t go wrong. All his songs are great.

The reason this song was so upbeat was because, when Guy originally wrote it as a slower ballad, he couldn't get through singing it without crying and getting too emotional, so he made it more upbeat to be able to get through the song.

Thanks Highly for your great reaction. 🥰 Not only does Guy Sebastian have a great voice, he also set up a foundation, together with his wife; to help others! Just an all round fantastic guy this guy 😉😅.

I love Guy Sebastian!! ❤️❤️ I love his song: Standing with you 😍

This was the Song Of The Year at the Arias that year and he wrote it for he’s friend he lost. Great song along with many others that Guy sings. You should check out the live Performance on Australian The Voice with guy singing another no 1 Standing With You it’s about suicide it will blow you away.

Guy Sebastianannoyed me so much when he won Australian Idol but i was young. As a 33 year old man now. His music has saved my life on 2 occasions an his general Aura is so positive. The dude also has come so far since then and is an established song writer in his own right. I mean if you listen to Both his live from the homefront version of Battlescars and conpare it to the version he did with Lupe Fiasco. They are totally different songs with the exact same lyrics. But Lupe Raps some verse instead of singing them like guy did. You know a song is well written when it can be sang and rapped with equal impact and its own flavour

One of the very best male singers in modern time.

We hear not enough of him! Love this and his voice!!🎶🎤💜

It about someone who produced all his music & he passed away it was his way to celebrate his life.

Guy is fantastic, Stan Walker is also amazing. This song was written for a band member/friend who took his life.💔💔

Guy is a great vocalist & brilliant songwriter. He's well known & loved in Australia and his star is rising fast internationally. Deservedly so. Have you seen his stripped back home studio version of 'Battle Scars' yet? Sooooooo good!

Love his songs. He does write most of his songs.

Guy is awesome so many to check out of him.

I loved your energy and reaction. Much love to Guy Sebastian. Such a legend

Actually it was great watching you get into it like that. That song, even though written for the loss of his friend, he knew that his mate would want everyone up dancing and enjoying themselves which we do because of the beat of the song but if you didn’t listen to the lyrics you would think it was a party type song. As a fellow Aussie I’m proud of Guy.

I think it's one of the greatest tribute songs ever. Guy wrote this for his friend who died and said he wanted it to be a celebration of the friendship. Love your reaction - you get the sentiment but now you might understand how difficult it was for Guy to sing this given the circumstances. Beautiful song and beautifully sung. All Guy's songs have a message.

Can’t believe this song is two years old already.

so glad to see you have done a reaction on Guy, love his work, so many great songs and a gorgeous man as well, please consider doing more. "Before I go." "Standing with you" Battle "Scars" even one of his earlier ones "Be Happy"... Standing with You is incredibly powerful especially when you know the background to why he wrote this one.

Guy Sebastian title before you go is good. This song choir is wonderful.👍👌💯 Thx for sharing🌹🌹

Love this kind of Gospel choirs with a lead singer this sounds fantastic

Guy's band member ended his own life. When Guy wrote this he wrote it as a ballad but could never get through it without breaking up...so he turned into a celebration of his friends life and it became a number one hit. I'm sure his mate was looking down on him...I'm really enjoying your 'reaction videos' I love how you get into the feelings and analysis of the videos. Waiving from Australia

This song is for Luke Guys good friend and band mate. This is from the Australian equivalent of the Grammys. Luke was a very popular musician and played for alot of Australia's biggest artists.
