If “all the feels” was a person, it would be an inconsolable child crying his heart out during one of Sebastián Yatra’s concerts. The Colombian singer took to social media to share the heartwarming video of a kid standing in the front row while crying and singing “Un Año Más.”

“I wrote it, but it’s already yours,” Yatra wrote in a video he shared on his TikTok account, acknowledging the kid’s passion.

But Yatra is a crier too! Yatra let everything out after his stunning performance of “Dos Oruguitas” (“Two Caterpillars”) at the 94th annual Academy Awards from the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The star performed the Oscar-nominated ballad part of Disney’s animated film Encanto.
