When I was unbelievably stressed, I would watch this and cry. Now that I am over those hard times, I watch this and I smile. Thanks for making this song tangible for me!
That was beautiful. It's hard to pick a favorite, but this and Handlebars are definitely up there. And Heartless. Yeah, these three. You've got me inspired to do an ASL version of "I Grieve" for my brother, who passed away in July. But you also have me sort of frozen because whatever I do will seem pale in comparison to your work. Do it for me? That would be awesome. :-) <3 !!
@shdubbleorti i've seen that used for denmark.. but that doesn't make any sense with this context. i'd go with indonesia or thailand as well.. something in that general area.
i had heard this song before but never thought of it in that way.... i really like your signing but even more appreciated your interpretation of this song!
wow you are absolutly beautiful even that word doesnt cover it and your video's leave me speechless there the best iv seen on youtube... it looks so natral almost like its as easy as breathing.. wow lol is the only word i really want to use =) just keep doing what your doing because your doing it perfectlly wow lol
wow you are beautiful and your video's leave me speakchless there the best iv seen.. it definently inspires me and wow lol is the only word i really want to use =) just keep doing what your doing because your doing it perfectlly wow lol
It overwhelms me with a sense of hope to see you excel so naturally. I notice you're a doctor too? Congrats for pushing through all the road blocks that life may have given you. When someone is capable of being this creative, it makes me think of the dedication they must have to plunge to such depths. I admire you. Keep inspiring us and yourself! You're phenomenal.
I just wanted to say that it is official...I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU!! :) LOL Sorry i got carried away...I think its amazing how well you tell a story with your hands. How well you connect. Its like your heart beats with every movement of your hand! You are the best here on You Tube!!
OMG!!! I have stayed up watching your vids and tiffanythill's. You guys are the BEST!!! I sign at my church and have never formally taken classes. You inspire me to be more ASL. This is truly a treat to watch you. I sometimes turn the sound down and just watch you sign...SO POWERFUL!! I don't always completely understand all the signs but I always get the concept. I love how you terped this song!! I love how you showed the devil being a problem that held him then let him go in the end.

wow. i think this song is most touched with true emotions. I usually watched music video with lyrics to follow the songs, but your mus-dio(music video) hit it off! LOL! keep it up, don't lose your charms.
My friend Nicole wants you to be her boyfriend. Her phone number is ..... wait that's not a good idea. She's gonna come visit you in the DR - watch out, she's scary!
Another good one, my friend. Keep em coming! Which is more time-consuming, figuring out the interpretation or practicing and rehearsing until you have it memorized? also,how do you write down your interpretation when you practice it? or do you video it?
OMG x infitity..super kool...tear tear leaking ='(..so truthful, its funny cuz in youth group we r talking about temptation n all that...n yup el chanclas nos kiere devorar komo dice en 1pe 5:8..
Whoa, I can't remember what the song sounds like and my speakers not working for some reason, but who needs those when I've got an amazing interpretation right here. I looked up the lyrics and wow, I like your take, because it's true. This is the devil's world we're living in after all, he controls it, but, God is more powerful; the idea in which you tinctured throughout, especially in the end. It's perfecto, tres bien, y 漂亮 Por favor, no te des por vencido, no te rindas.
Also, thought this applies perfect: Galatas 6:9: "Así es que no desistamos de hacer lo que es excelente, porque al debido tiempo segaremos si no nos cansamos." (So let us not give up in doing what is fine, for in due season we shall reap if we do not tire out.-NWT)
It is true, how is someone living with evil people who are on earth, that they harm people's good just because it disturbs them. Too bad! It is very strong message of what you gave us.
What a truly amazing interpretation! Super uplifting and just a beautiful reminder to keep reaching out to Him when you are feeling pulled down by so many wordly things. Thank you!
Zote ... ven aca! Que es lo que piensas? Estoy en otro continente, pero lo de esa vaina no me escape, de ningun modo. Jajajjaaja!!! 'Ta super chevere como siempre; la interpretacion tan nitida. Al interpretar las letras en una manera que aplica o habla a las experiencias de uno, hace que el entendimiento final llega al corazon y tenga un impacto mas fuerte y sentimental. Tu habilidad me maravilla y me humilla! O mejor dicho: Excellent!!
That's very amaging! that's very true story about that song about devil and god! i know all about it my father is a preacher of course i am only child in family that are deaf, all of them are hearing... that's vey beauitful beauitful! keep it up! i love music, i love sing, i love sign and sing lol!
Always love to see your interpretations! They're so...alliterative, I guess would be the way to describe them? One thing flows into the next so well, it's so beautiful.
It's a special day whenever you come out with a video, I swear. I love this so much--everything about it, including your interpretation of the lyrics. You are someone who actually puts people closer to the light, no joke! Bravo! KIss-fist it a thousand times over.
Wow, you're awesome. Are you a CODA? My ASL teacher showed one of your videos in our class and pretty much told us we could never hope to sign as well as you.
When I was unbelievably stressed, I would watch this and cry. Now that I am over those hard times, I watch this and I smile. Thanks for making this song tangible for me!
