I NEED UTICA IN NIGHTGOWS WITH SASHA VELOUR!
YES YES AND YES!
My 2 fav. Ru gurls ♡
YES!!!!!!!
They look like twins out of drag.
YES
Calling Utica a fashion queen almost feels reductive. She's more than just fashioin, she's pure ART.
Fashioin
@@williamthompson8561 art
All of that and more
Our favourite art impersonator…
She’s in the same realm of Sasha Velour, she just art…… that’s all
can y'all believe she's the goofiest one in her season ??? her versatility is astonishing. i cannot wait to see more of her content and creativity
Like the emotion in her eyes alone ! I’m on the verge of tears saying “ who hurt you ?”
Yeah! Shes only 25!!!
Only thing she can’t do is roast. But I feel it’s a fair trade. She’s amazing at what she does.
sometimes there's a thin line between comedy and tragedy sometimes. you need to be sensitive to be able to read a room and tell a joke that will land with your audience. plus, making someone laugh can be a way to stay safe in a hostile environment. so, often, comedians will have very deep and sensitive souls. I think of Robin Williams. nothing is universal. but it's not uncommon to have sadness and an ability/need for laughter to go hand in hand in a person.
- Don't touch, it's art.
Utica is an artist. She understands silhouette, emotion and concept.
I would be shocked if she isn't called for AS7.
In my opinion, I hope it takes time and takes time so that it has a great evolution and takes the crown that I would not mind seeing it at all stars 7
Drag race does not fit her. She can reach higher, she got the stuff 👍
there are rumors shes gonna be on as7!!! hope their true
well considering the premise of AS7, it isn't that shocking now
@@johanvajse8410 fair. ⚖ lol 😊
I had never seen Utica before drag race and stuff like this is why she's already my new favorite.
Yes. ❤️💕❤️💕⭐👑
everyone who's here for Utica is loving your comment ♥️
That's on periodt. She's such a fashion inspiration😭👌
When drag is not just drag, it becomes pure art.
As the light turns red(keep the lights on) strings become invisible(so that she wont think about him)
What a genius choice
Strip away everything else, the lipsync alone was technical perfection. You could almost swear she was singing.
Add the concept, the fashion, all the lighting, etc and this became transcendent. Bravo, Utica and the team who worked on this vid with you.
I showed this to my husband and he was convinced she was singing the song. I had to remind him that Utica does not have a higher range voice like that. We both watched the season together and I guess through her performance he forgot that Utica cannot actually sing like that simply based on how real her lip sync looked.
I agree completely; Technical Perfection.
Utica is the embodiment of pure artistry. 😍😍😍 Everything pulled from Utica’s brain and crafted by her hands should be put in museums and studied at universities!
Season 13 may be over, but we’re Utica fans forever! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Yes, all of this
Proof, you don't need the crown to be the QUEEN!
Precisely.
Utica's artistry is phenomenal and intentional. This gown with constellations of stars like a galaxy reads like a symbol of all the possibilities contained within a person. So much potential. Those strings around her at the end and connecting to the heart read like strings continually attaching the galactic body to a relationship they know is bad for them. But it's hard to stay away, so those strings are like a cage in the one scene, attached to the heart and running out to the other person in other scenes. And in that final scene, the strings are falling slowly only to rise back up. This feels like a comment on how these connections to even the wrong people are in flux. They rise and fall in intensity. So much respect for UTICA.
“Losing too is still ours; and even forgetting
still has a shape in the kingdom of transformation.
When something's let go of, it circles; and though we are
rarely the center
of the circle, it draws around us its unbroken, marvelous
curve.”
Utica Queen was so underappreciated by the judges. She could easily have made top four. I love her.
Right, if only they saved the double elimination :(
There is so much reminiscent of Sasha Velour in Utica; she'd be perfect for NightGowns. As another Midwest queen from a small town, it's always a huge win to see someone so brilliantly artistic find their moment, seize it, and actually watch others fall in love with them.
At 2:18 I really thought Utica was singing. Ahhh I love our lipsync assassin
ikr its so gooood
I love MUNA. And learning about this collab... man.
This song in Acoustic sounds... so much more painfully raw and beautiful. Really pulls out the lyrics in a very powerful light.
Entering the werkroom with a strawberry and ending the rpdr journey with a GALAXY !!?! ✨✨ mama this is ART
Thank you so much for this art piece 💖
Besides, the cinematography, the framing, the lighting AWWWW BEAUTIFUL, as a designer this is a textbook material
This had me at the edge of my f*cking seat like WOW MISS UTIVACA SERVING THE CHILDREN
We need a collaboration of Utica, Sasha, and Jinkx. They are the best!
Please tell me that the tightening of the strings is to represent the distress of your heart and its strings from having and then loosing love, and the turmoil of it all. And when the song seems to pan out the strings and you heart begin to loosen again begin to set and begin to heal. I love this so much. Truly an inspiration.
that was beautiful. The heartstrings imagery was just perfect for this song. Such a gorgeous interpretation
I'm listening to this song on repeat. This is beautiful and the feeling is so intense.
Utica, you are a piece of art. Please keep doing what you are doing
this has to be my 200th time, this version and the video are just amazing.
My favorite drag artist, bar none.
I feel so much for Utica and her weirdness, it's pure art. What i love the most about her craft is that it has meaning behind it, like everything should!!
I wanted so bad to be there on rupaul and give Utica a hug, but I'm like 5'5'' tall and someone will break something in a hug attempt like that 😳🤡😂
Please upload more I love you
"Stayaway"
If I see my old friends, we'll go out dancing
If we go out dancing, then we'll go to the bar
If we go to the bar, then there's gonna be drinking
If I drink, I wanna see where you are
So I don't see my old friends, I don't go dancing
I don't do most things I used to do
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it
I did most things to get to you
No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
If I go driving, then I'll put on music
If I put on music, then I'll play your song
If I play your song, then I think I'll lose it
End up pulled up at the front of your lawn
So I don't go driving, no, I just stay in
I don't do most things I used to do
'Cause every moment is a fork in the road
And all my roads lead back to you (You, you, you)
No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
If I turn off the light, then I might start thinking
If I start thinking, I'll think of the time when
You said that you love me, you said I was perfect
You said you were sorry, you said you were selfish
If I don't stop it, before I know it
All the bad things never happened
You never lied or treated me bad and
If you did, then you'll wish you hadn't
Start believing you were right and
I was being too dramatic
So I gotta leave the light on for tonight
Just so I can stay away
No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
Any little misstep, I'll be at your doorstep
Talking 'bout forgiveness, giving you my heart back
Just so you can break it one more time before I say
I gotta stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
Stay away, stay away
Stay away, stay, stay away
a year has passed and I still comeback to this video and performance of utica.... she is such an amazing performer and her creativity in her looks is just out of this world
This is easily one of the best things I’ve seen from a Drag Race queen. She’s got to be on All Stars eventually. I just hope she doesn’t get put on it with a huge fan favorite so she can actually have a chance at the crown based on performance rather than number of followers on social media.
High fashion, High art, and pure SOUL. I knew Utica was capable of such artistry away from the show... and her art is on full display in this video. Magnificent!
i see her as one of an all-stars winner for sure
UticART, the true winner.
When the video came out and ya had comments turned off, was like DAMN I cant say nice things, but ya got it up now soo nice
Feck may have been cryin, beautiful video hun
Words cannot explain how much your art means to us Utica. You are so beautiful and talented
You are amazing Utica!! Be your lovable kooky amazing self and pay them haters no mine. ❤️❤️ Can’t wait to see more amazing content from you!!!
Emotion. Beauty. Drama. Art.
This deserves more views.
I love how the cinch and the base makes her look tied down. Held back by pain and fear and regret. Stuck in a horrible place, for fear of her pain repeating.
Staying in this pool of hurt beauty till she can heal enough to live her life again.
so inspirational aaaaah Uticaaa
this is the fiercest crossover ever???? utica + muna and STAYAWAY ELECTRIC LADY STUDIOS NONETHELESS??
[Verse 1]
If I see my old friends, we'll go out dancing
If we go out dancing, then we’ll go to the bar
If we go to the bar, then there's gonna be drinking
If I drink, I wanna see where you are
So I don't see my old friends, I don’t go dancing
I don't do most things I used to do
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it
I did most things to get to you
[Chorus]
No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
[Post-Chorus]
Stay away, stay stay away
Stay away, stay stay away
[Verse 2]
If I go driving then I'll put on music
If I put on music then I'll play your song
If I play your song then I think I'll lose it
End up balled up at the front of your lawn
So I don't go driving, no, I just stay in
I don’t do most things I used to do
’Cause every moment is a fork in the road
And all my roads lead back to you (You, you)
[Chorus]
No one ever told me leaving was the easy part
I gotta stay away
Leaving you was easy, now I gotta do what's hard
I gotta stay away
[Post-Chorus]
Stay away, stay stay away
Stay away, stay stay away
[Bridge]
If I turn off the light then I might start thinking
If I start thinking, I’ll think of the time when
You said that you loved me, you said I was perfect
You said you were sorry, you said you were selfish
If I don't stop it, before I know it
All the bad things never happened

If you leave then you'll wish you hadn't
Start believing you were right and

Talking 'bout forgiveness
Giving you my heart back
Just so you can break it
One more time before I say
I gotta stay away
[Outro]
Stay away, stay stay away
Stay away, stay stay away
Stay away, stay stay away
Stay away, stay stay away
Utica is one of my favorite queens❤
Love you Utica ❤
can't wait for her to show up on All Stars
Stunning!
I have no words or conclusive thoughts to interpret this masterpiece, Utica brought this song to another plane and I'm still so captivated!!
It just feels like the video, the outfit, the music, ans her facial expressions go in harmony towards conveying this deep emotion. It feels like pure sadness and love dispair. Such a strong piece of art there..
Almost to good at what it does not to make me feel the grief of a thousands relationships when I listen to it. You got me girls 😅 I felt your art.
UTICA THAT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL!!! i nearly cried it was so moving...😭😭😭

Thank you Utica for not only for doing this beautiful art peice and looking stunning, but for opening my ears up to this band. This song is amazing, in both versions and the rest of Munas discography is so good.
Magical, astounding, beautiful
PURE ART! ❤❤❤
I love you! I went through a rough break up. I don’t know why, but your light presence in RPDR comforted me a lot. I was so enthralled by your work and art in the stage and challenges. Seeing you lip sync is also out of this world. Just wanna let you know you successfully achieved your goal of making people happy! ❤
- SERVIU HORRORES, aff performance impecável😭💙
My interpretation about this is Utica was so sad about the things that happened to the show. We love you QUEEN!
I got that too. Stay away from the toxicity of the show
Same with her “reunion” performance. They did her so dirty and I’m fuming.
As soon as i watched the promo she was my queen then i loved Denali and Symone cause it is impossible not to but Utica Queen is a queen in my heart she is everything !!
DRAG AT ITS FINEST ❤
This needs way more views and way more attention. So beautiful
YOU ARE A MASTERPIECE, UTICA!
Wow this is soo beautiful the song and the fashion. The performance. Utica love u
how does this piece of art not have millions of views? I'm very surprised
This is phenomenal.
Perfect in all ways
That is A R T! It belongs in a contemporary art museum. Wow!
My new favourite song and video 😍
This queen is about to blow up I can feel it
Okay but the amount of poses in this like she is serving art and I am so proud of her for this
I love it when she is on the floor, honestly it looks so mesmerising like she’s drowning in her inky dress like the witch of the west
And the red on black, just everything about this performance is pure artistry
ART
This video and the look matched with song. Loved it
Love you, miss you! Minneapolis isn't the same without you!!!
I’m legit sobbing. Gorgeous.
Wow. Just wow.
I fell in love with Utica as soon as I saw her at the meet the queens video, her personality, the fashion, and obviously the artistic part of it all, me as a little girl that loves arts since forever, she became one of my favorites of all time ❤️
This is personally my favorite look of season 13. It's a crime it didn't get to touch the finale stage.
Such an incredible and breathtaking video!!!! I need more Utica!
