This video always makes me cry knowing right after she filmed this she got on the plane that would claim her life 😢
Same. It took forever for me to listen to the original watch the video again. 😢
The ending of this video is so emotional- it looks like her ascending into heaven 😢❤
Oh wow! I never thought about the ending in that way, but now I will forever 😢❤❤
It's hard to believe it's been over 2 decades. RIP

It's so hard watching this. Knowing just hours after filming she passed. She never liked dresses or skirts and this was her 1st time wearing it she looked just like the Angel we know her to be. Rip Baby Girl. I can't I'm now older than she was once she passed 💔❤️🩹
Her last scene shot was on the boat dancing, she then went to the airport and died. The scenes of her on the beach is from that same day in the morning. This video is her last day on earth. The scenes dancing on the wave and on the water are from the evening before. This is from the self titled album and the record company didn't want it as a single, she fought for it and because radios were embracing it without being a single they finally accepted, this whole song has a history of almost not being recorded.
@@MR.KNGRICOshe should have stick with More than a Woman, it was a better single and a better video.
@@CentraalHub THATS WHAT IVE BEEN SAYING!! Lmao More Than A Woman should’ve been the first release off the album💯💯💯💯
@@MR.KNGRICOI heard a theory that Jay Z put out the hit and Hype was his goon for the operation and the plane was another famous person’s plane I forgot who. I just remember reading she did NOT want to get on that plane but they peer pressured her into it instead of taking their original plane which was leaving the day after.
@@DruHilILenny Kravitz had sent his jet for her but Hype took it for himself instead. Hype Williams was also in Honduras at the same time as Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez when she passed.
@@neil_0 Oh wow. I never knew about this. I thought Left Eye said she was cursed cos of some lady she had a problem with there. I remember seeing the video of her in the car and then crashing. So u think Hype paid a lady to act like she cursed her then messing with her car so she’d crash?
Please consider reacting to Sade. She is a popular jazz/R&B artist. One of my favorite artists of all time.🙂
1) No Ordinary Love
2) Sweetest Taboo

5) Cherish the Day
Can we do MYA week next: fallen, case of the ex, my love is like whoa, ghetto superstar
This was quite a bittersweet week - I find it hard to revisit Aaliyah's music, but I'm glad I stuck with it and watched every video. Thanks PippBucket!
I'm literally dying here about the debate over me being deserving or not deserving of being called wonderful. Yall crack me up more than any standup show has. 😂
Yes this is a different era. This is off her self-titled album Aaliyah. Her third and final album. And, this was her final video she shot. It's a beautiful song and a lovely video.
I still can’t believe there were only three albums. She had more hits on those three albums than some artists have in a lifetime.
@@cflournoy1529 I remember watching MTV when the news broke of her passing. I was in shock. Her posthumous album I Care 4 u also had hits. Miss you. Come over. Don't know what to tell you still slap. She was such a talent.
@@drewrayg I remember I got in the car and they were playing her songs all the way to the store and all the way home but the DJ never came on the mic. I thought “Is it her birthday or something?” Then I got home and it was all over the news😢😢 I was stunned.
Aaliyah Week 2
5. Journey to the Past

This list wins imo. Sadly the other lists are getting more love but I hope ppl start supporting this one cos you included Journey.
@@LateyshiaCampbell Thank you. I wanted them to hear more ballads from her and see her versatility.
Omg Mike 'working the middle' has me dying! LOL🤣 That whole conversation about working the middle was both hilarious and fantastic all at the same damn time. I love your guys reactions, so entertaining. Thank you🤗🙏❤
"now this is a tutorial I can get behind!" is hilarious. great to see you enjoy our girl Aaliyah. shes so special.
Yes we need Aaliyah Week 2!

This video will always be emotional.
It only makes sense that this is #1 ☺️
There are so many good looks in this video, we definitely need Aaliyah week 2 : Journey To the Past, 4 Page Letter, If Your Girl Only Knew, The One I Gave My Heart To and We Need A Resolution are all fun videos.
@@RTUG00 if they do a week two they need to see more songs that show her vocal range, songs that show her as well rounded artist. People are just picking songs because they are their favorites, when you introduce someone to someone’s music and image you give them the key elements and major b*llet points and than let them dig deeper afterwards, never start with songs that are not well known just because you love them, lol.
😭😭😭 this video makes me miss her SO much but it's still one of my favourites 😭😭😭
One more week for Aaliyah this was not enough love you guys reactions thanks
Watching you guys pick apart the potential meaning of "work the middle" is cracking me the fuck up 🤣
Glad you guys enjoyed it. I was in my late teens when she died. We were all so heartbroken over her death. It's such a shame she died in a completely avoidable accident. Her presence and talent will always be missed!
Every time I see Rock the Boat I get emotional knowing it was her last video and there was no need for them to be in the Bahamas shooting the video. She also had a feeling about the plane that was supposed to bring her back and Lenny Kravitz sent his own personal plane to get her and the director I believe took it while they gave her some sleeping pills or something to relax her and they put her on that bad plane.
Yes, this album ("Aaliyah") was a new era/sound for her and was basically supposed to be her transition (look and sonically) from teen starlet to adult popstar but her time was cut short. "Try Again" was the transition to the new era. "We Need A Resolution" and "More Than A Woman" were the first singles released (if I remember correctly). "Rock The Boat" and "I Care 4 U" were released posthumously. She actually passed away on the way back from the "Rock The Boat" shoot, the plane was overloaded/too heavy and the pilot was allegedly on drugs at the time. Also, random fun fact, Carmit from the original Pussycat Dolls line up (red hair) is one of the background dancers in "Rock The Boat."
There better be an Aaliyah Week 2😂She was killed on her flight from the Bahamas back to The States from shooting this video. Her final days/hours & making of the video are on YT (you should react to it)
The scenes when she was dancing on water & swimming were shot in Miami
The scenes when she is in all white & on the beach were in the Bahamas. She finished shooting a day early so she decided to head out...😔 the scenes in the all white were her last hours of her life. If u noticed, there were shots with and without shoes because the boat's floor had gotten hot
FUN FACT: The song almost didn't happen! The producer, Eric Seats, was playing around on his equipment & was gonna delete it until her writer, Static Major, from the R&B group Playa, heard it and wrote the hook.
RIP Aaliyah, Eric Foreman (Hair), Anthony Dodd(hair), Chis Maldonado(makeup), Keith Wallace(family friend), Douglas Kratz(Virgin Rec), Gina Smith(Blackground Rec), Luis Morales(Pilot), Scott Galin(security)
The commentary on “working the middle” had me giggling like a kid 😂😂😂❤️ y’all are hilarious
Crazy how Aaliyah's music list is #106; her last tv interview was on the show 106 and Park. RIP Aaliyah.

1. Miss You
I love you guys. I knew this would be number 1 :’) one of my favorite songs and music videos of all time . Thank you for doing Aaliyah week! Rest in peace babygirl ❤
I definitely feel like you’re their favorite cos you’re an early fan and constantly comment. 😂❤
@@DruHilIoh no, is it that obvious? 😂 i just think they’re really cool people, and i appreciate their existence haha 🥰❤️
You guys are so funny about working the middle 😂 If you have to ask, you’ve never worked it.
Work that middle guys 😂😂😂
Bro, y'all gotta get more legends on the channel frfr. I have a few in mind but for right now, you definitely should give the Queen of Hip Hop & Soul, Mary J. Blige her flowers. So I have some songs/videos you should check out in particular. All That I Can Say, Deep Inside, No More Drama, Enough Cryin, Take Me As I Am, The One, We Got Hood Love, Someone To Love Me, Mr Wrong, Right Now, Whole Damn Year, Come See About Me. All dope frfr..
Joe and Mike the critical thinking in this video is something a lot of people need. You both are hilarious.
It’s funny cos I saw a few people complaining that they don’t focus on the song much and tend to focus on the video and in a way it’s their style. We have many reactors that do the song focused reactions but WT5 is unique that it’s 85% about the video & how the videos message makes them feel & 15% about the song.. It’s kind of like the VMAs of youtube reactors.
YES! An Aaliyah Week Part 2#

I always start tearing up when the bridge comes in
Toni Braxton Week 1!
#5. He Wasn’t Man Enough
#4. Breathe Again
#3. You’re Makin’ Me High
#2. Just Be A Man About It
#1. Unbreak My Heart
Please do Toni Braxton. She is one of the best selling female artists of all time, has several Grammys and other awards, was one of the leading acts of the 90s, and she is known for her numerous hits and her very distinct and unique voice, trust me you guys would love it. I couldn’t fit all of her hits in this list, but I think these may be some of her best and most important songs. A week dedicated to this legend would be amazing.
Love that you guys did Aaliyah week but you guys definitely need to revisit. Soo many you’ve missed like the early 90’s Aaliyah. love the channel, revisit her please!
Yes this was actually the last video she shot. The plane crash was coming from the islands.
And work the middle means to center and swivel your hips during sex 😂. A few times in the video she demonstrated with dance moves
Aaliyah week 2 🔥

Thank you guys for this week, Aaliyah was an angel and I’m glad you guys reacted to her music videos. RIP to Aaliyah, her legacy lives on 🙏🏾
Ashanti Week:
#1 Foolish
#2 Rock Wit U (Aww Baby)
#3 Rain on Me
#4 Only U
#5 The Way That I Love You
Sadly, this is the 3rd and final Aaliyah era, and her final music video. She passed away in a plane crash leaving this video set. Which is why for many it's a very bittersweet video and has a beautiful yet eerie feeling, especially the intro/outro.
I don't know how I found you guys but I am glad I did. The breakdown of the song & dance demonstration was perfect 😭🤣🤣 & yes we need an Aaliyah week 2..
If you guys pause the video at the end you will see (3) images of Aaliyah.
1. Her body appears to be lifeless & floating in the air.
2. Her spirit is ascending to the heavenlies.
3. Her face can be seen at the top with her head peeked down as if she is looking at something...maybe viewing us all still down here on earth from Heaven.
R.i.p. Babygirl♥️🕊
Yes to another Aaliyah week ✨
If you learn to work the middle, she’ll never leave you Joe!
Such a great week overall. Loved it so much.

We Need A Resolution was one of her best videos and they didn't react to it. The snake scene is iconic. 😭
YOU GUYS ARE SUCH A VIBE !!!! 😂
Off topic! But I would totally love to see a top 5 video on Ke$ha she has SO many hits that rocked the 2010’s. Would be so interested in seeing you guys react to some of her hits. Much love from Cali.❤
Should have done We need a Resolution
Where is We Need A Resolution?
Cool fact; The Caribbean aesthetic, her outfits, and choreography were to pay homage to Aaliyah's Jamaican heritage from her father's side 🇯🇲❤
I cried like I knew her when she died😂 ever got an ass whooping that had you balling, that was me! RIP Babygirl

"We need a resolution", "If your girl only knew" and "4 page letter" are aesthetically some of her best videos. But she also has some great live performances that I don't like a lot of people have seen. Especially of ballads like "the one I gave my heart to" and "journey to the past".

Rock the Boat was the last video she shot, that video was shot in the Bahamas, the plane she boarded with 8 other people to go back to the US crashed few minutes after taking off... RIP Aaliyah
I cry every time I watch this music video it brings me back to the day she died and when they had the world premiere after the access granted episode 😢
czcams.com/video/nhEH2WBX-bI/video.htmlsi=J1XMm9qh63ZhK-8o
The BTS Access Granted episode in case anyone is interested
@@mzzthang3912I remember that Saturday night so vividly it was crazy I couldn’t believe it
What makes it extra sad for me is that she didn't feel safe to fly but they convinced her to, reportedly.
@@LadyAstarionAncunin No, no, they could NOT convince her to get on so they drugged her then carried her on after she fell asleep! She was also asleep when the plane crashed!
