The original video is here. The link has also been posted on Jason's front page since yesterday. The site that created that video deserves the site hits and to have you look around the things they have to offer more than the youtube channel of whoever ripped the video from them does. www.iamsecond.com/#/seconds/Jason_Castro/Sorry if that channel belongs to anyone here but considering the subject matter I'm just flabbergasted that someone pirated their video. |

You are right McLoving. I just wanted to post it here on the forum so that every Jason fan would be able to see the video. I'm so sorry. I deleted my original post. www.iamsecond.com/#/seconds/Jason_Castro/ |

Is there something keeping them from watching it on the original site? I'm not being a smart-aleck, I'm truly wondering. Maybe some technical issue with that site?

This video is so moving.
I loved it so much I sent it to many on my contact list including my teenage sons.
This is a huge reason I am a fan! This is why I play his MySpace music as often as I can. If in this small way, I can send a message to the music industry that says this artist is different and special I am happy to do it.
Jason you are Unique and Undeniable.

Wow...just wow. This is why I do what I can to support Jason. It's not JUST about the music (thought that is fantastic and very important). It's about who he is as a person and WHY he does what he does. That light that everyone sees when he performs? That kindness in his spirit that he shares with everyone who comes in contact with him? That only comes from one place and that is Jesus Christ.

Yeeea, some firefox users (quite like myself) are unable to load the actual iamsecond.com website due to the graphics they use on the site... The lady who put up the vid on Youtube was just trying to help those in need of seeing this wonderful interview. |

I was so moved by that video, that boy is so sincere-makes my heart sing.
I am not of the Christian faith, but I can truely appreciate his deep belief in G-D.
Wow is all I can cay.

I'm about the run to work, but his words hit hard...brought me to tears. Thank you Jason for sharing your heart with all of us!

There were a lot of people saying that they could not access the video on the actual site. I think due to the type of set up they have on their computer, so the person who put it on the youtube was so that they could see it. I do not think she was trying to take anything away from the site itself. |

This is so incredibly honest... what's really moving is that Jason's commitment isn't because he had to overcome addiction or abuse or some such thing. I think this makes his choice & commitment that much more impressive - and why his joy & emotion is so palpable in his music.

You know, those of us that are of the Christian faith sometimes think we have to carefully broach this subject with others. I think this proves otherwise. It is all in the heart and the delivery. If a person's heart is pure and open and their delivery is humble, people will listen to their words. They may not agree with what is said but they'll respect the position from which it is given. What a great example he is!

I tried to post the link on myspace and it says its a "bad site, virus or phishing scam." maybe that is the reason? MySpace posts an interim link for any links that go outside of MySpace except for very well known sites like youtube and photobucket. I have Firefox and that site works great for me. Plus the direct link to the video bypasses the graphics. I understand wanting to share the video, but I felt badly for the site that put the money into producing and hosting this. You know? |

I want to be like Jason when I grow up.
It's funny that he mentions having something, let's call it a light, that some people don't recognize but they just know there's something. And that his love for Christ is what it is. I knew there was something there when I first heard him perform, and when a quick trip to youtube confirmed he was a Christian ("I'm Not Who I Was" and "Clumsy"), I shrugged and went, "I knew it."

Permission to put the video on YouTube: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Winnie wrote to Drew of I Am Second: Hi Drew.... We viewed your video last night and let me tell you we were all touched by it. Another member of our message board indicated that she is unable to view it...some of them are international so some don't have access for whatever reason and asked if I could put the video on YouTube which I did. Since it was late last night, I did not think that I should have probably asked permission from your site. I have the link to your site and I indicated on my description that I did not intent to infringe on your copyright. It has been reaching a lot of people and I believe that is your intent. However, I am going to shut it down if indeed you don't want me to do this. Here's the link for you to view it. As you can see...I have the link at the top.... www.youtube.com/watch?v=GrT90EgrnTcI apologize for this. Please advise ASAP.... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Drew responded: Gee, let me think...should I give you permission to share the Gospel? Let me pray about that...yep, I give you permission! We are thrilled to partner with you as we set out to intentionally present the Gospel and give people a chance to respond. Let us know of any comments that you get on your site. It looks great! Until everyone hears... Drew ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ So it's ok to share in whatever way works for you!  |
