The scene in the movie that goes with this song is one of the best cinematographic pieces I've ever seen. The choreography is pure perfection.

i... i read this movie's title as "the greatest snowman"

I remember watching this year's ago and was blown away. I wasn't ready how hard the soundtrack was going to go. The music crew did a phenomenal job

The choreography in this song IS SO INSANELY AMAZING!!!!

They fact they’re singing about how they can’t be an interracial couple in the late 1800s or early 1900s, just hurts my heart even more.

Can we just take a minute to appreciate zendaya’s talent she is a model, dancer, actress, singer- song writer, producer, influencer and a motivational speaker The girl beams with talent

Even so many years later, this scene still takes my breath away. The "dance" with the ropes, the beautiful music, the longing for each other. Such a beautiful choreographed sequence. One of my favorite videos of all time

how is this the most magical song ever. the choreography, the singing, the background music, the message. it's heartbreaking and has so much energy ugh I'm in love

What if we rewrite the stars? Constellations: *ExCuSe Me?*

When an optimist and pessimist love each other.

THIS IS A MASTERPIECE. zac’s voice is just amazing and zendaya is a prom queen.

Zendaya's singing and lines just hit me on such a personal level here. (Note I am not gonna remember character names, so assume I'm referring to them when i say the actor name. Unless I'm not, lol) Zac's lines express his undying affection for her, how he wants to continue living on loving her, and how they together can create their own future without the weight of the world on them. Zendaya is the thematic opposite of him here. She shares his affection, but because of her race and her appearance, she can't be with him. She is the only one between the two of them who sees that them being together will cause others to label and mistreat them, and given the timeframe, even kill them (or most likely her). Even forgoing the overarching theme of self love that this movie has, this song itself having that duel theme of love that will defy all/love can't defeat everything blends so well together and is still applicable even these days. Interracial couples still get flack, along with really any other couples that either don't share a race or aren't straight presenting. The world seems like a place where love can take you everywhere (Zac's interpretation of what their love can do), but it can just as easily place you somewhere that your safety is easily forfeited (Zendaya's point on their reality). That's why you hear Zendaya singing in such a soft tone for most of the song. The truth is heartbreaking for her to accept, and the fact that Zac can't accept it himself means he will keep bringing her moments of hope just for them to get crushed by society. She starts off with trying to be blunt (You think it's easy/ But there are mountains...and there are doors we can't walk through) to tell him in her way it's useless. However, she gives into her (rightful) pessimism and say they can't change society with their different kind of love nor can they fight what holds them back from being together and happy (No one can Rewrite the Stars/ Everything keeps us apart). She even for a couple of moments tries to say they aren't meant to be together despite knowing she wants to be (listen to her voice getting energized for a moment when she sings "You think I don't wanna run to you"). In the ending verses, her voice gains volume and energy because she is giving into the hope that Zac is emminating, as I mentioned before. But once at the end of that emotional high, when all is said and done, she comes back down and remembers their stations, and decides to be the one to break the cycle between them (But I can't have you...we're bound to break and my hands are tied). You can hear the pain and regret in her voice as she is doing. Dang. This is just a great song.

This isn't just high school musical and shake it up. This is pure, raw, and new. Zendaya is singing from emotion that is very likely from real experience. Zac is singing from a talent that is deeper than ever. Appreciate them for the work they are doing now. They captivated us once again with these new stories. Thank you for being real once again.

This is one of my favorite songs. I love the Greatest Showman!

Unpopular opinion: This is my favorite version! Yeah James and Anne have both amazing voices and techniques but there is something about these two together that I can’t even imagine the song without their special tones and feelings!❤

Their voices together are heavenly

I love it so happy Zac is singing again!

You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide I know you want me So don't keep sayin' our hands are tied You claim it's not in the cards And fate is pullin' you miles away And out of reach from me But you're here in my heart So who can stop me if I decide That you're my destiny? What if we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be mine Nothing could keep us apart You'd be the one I was meant to find It's up to you, and it's up to me No one can say what we get to be So why don't we rewrite the stars? Maybe the world could be ours Tonight You think it's easy You think I don't wanna run to you But there are mountains And there are doors that we can't walk through I know you're wondering why because we're able to be Just you and me within these walls But when we go outside, you're gonna wake up and see That it was hopeless after all No one can rewrite the stars How can you say you'll be mine? Everything keeps us apart And I'm not the one you were meant to find It's not up to you It's not up to me When everyone tells us what we can be How can we rewrite the stars? Say that the world can be ours Tonight All I want is to fly with you All I want is to fall with you So just give me all of you It feels impossible It's not impossible Is it impossible? Say that it's possible How do we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be mine? Nothing can keep us apart 'Cause you are the one I was meant to find It's up to you And it's up to me No one can say what we get to be And why don't we rewrite the stars? Changing the world to be ours You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide But I can't have you We're bound to break and my hands are tied

My wife and I come from 2 totally different back grounds and up bringing. This is so fitting for us. I absolutely love this song, it fits us perfectly!!

This movie is still the best musical movie I had ever watched. The soundtrack was Phenomenal! And this song in particular was * chef’s kiss *

how can zendaya act, sing, model, and dance she is literally a queen

Kyungsoo and Suhyun led me here ❤

Hold these words close to your heart and realize that you can do anything great you decide for yourself and your life because "who can stop me if I decide you're my destiny."

Can we just appreciate Zendaya’s voice? She’s gorgeous asf

i'm really digging this duo!! Not only do they sing perfectly together but their chemistry is insane... and we've only seen scenes from the trailers so far.

This is beautiful, the lyrics, the melody, the voices, everything! This song moves me since the first time I listened it.

ホントにこの曲聞くと元気でるんだよね。

Wow, Zac and Zendaya's voices have matured A LOT since their Disney Channel days! LOVE the song! Makes me even more excited to see this movie! It'd better be fucking good!!

[Verse 1: Zac Efron] You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide I know you want me So don't keep saying our hands are tied You claim it's not in the cards But fate is pulling you miles away And out of reach from me But you're here in my heart So who can stop me if I decide That you're my destiny? [Chorus: Zac Efron] What if we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be mine Nothing could keep us apart You'd be the one I was meant to find It's up to you, and it's up to me No one can say what we get to be So why don't we rewrite the stars? Maybe the world could be ours Tonight [Verse 2: Zendaya] You think it's easy You think I don't want to run to you But there are mountains And there are doors that we can't walk through I know you're wondering why Because we're able to be Just you and me Within these walls But when we go outside You're going to wake up and see that it was hopeless after all [Chorus: Zendaya] No one can rewrite the stars How can we say you'll be mine? Everything keeps us apart And I'm not the one you were meant to find It's not up to you It's not up to me When everyone tells us what we can be How can we rewrite the stars? Say that the world can't be ours Tonight [Verse 3: Zac Efron and Zendaya] All I want is to fly with you All I want is to fall with you So just give me all of you [Zendaya] If it's impossible? [Zac Efron] It's not impossible [Zendaya] Is it impossible? [Both] Say that it's possible [Chorus: Zac Efron and Zendaya] How do we rewrite the stars? And say you were made to be mine? And nothing can keep us apart Cause you are the one I was meant to find It's up to you And it's up to me No one can say what we get to be Why don't we rewrite the stars? Changing the world to be ours [Outro: Zendaya] You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide But I can't have you We're bound to break and My hands are tied

2024 anyone?

This is my best friend fav movie. She past away in 2019 and this song was her favorite. I listen to it every time I miss her, thank you Zendaya for being and amazing actor and artist.

Zacs voice has really matured since high school musical 😍

Definitely playing this at my wedding rewrite the stars the lyrics shows how 2 people can overcome anything and stay together no matter.

is it just me or is his voice soooo good in the first chorus at the high notes. bro it hits all the right spots its on the words rewrite and keep us. its like a raspy and perfect voice to me

ANOTHER AMAZING SONG???? This movie is going to change lives 😭😭💕 Hugh, Zac, Zendaya, Keala, Michelle, and Rebecca are about to f*ck me up with this movie 😣💖

I'm emotionally unprepared for the phenomenon that this film will be. This is brilliant ❤

Kyungsoo X Suhyun (Akmu) 😭

Zendaya has such a beautiful voice in this song, and Zac had a great voice too! They sure make a great team for singing. I love this soft groovy song. 🎶💕👍

Can everybody please take a moment to appreciate exactly how amazing Zac Efron's voice is and how well it blends with Zendaya's beautiful voice

This was the last movie I watched with my dad before he passed away 2 months later. Both of us don't like musicals, but we both shared a love for this movie. I think of him every time I see it.

本当に素敵な曲…✨何回聴いても飽きない

This in my opinion is one of the greatest musical performances of all time. Both the song and the act was a masterpiece.

Zac is singing again and I’m loving it! Zendaya’s voice is so beautiful 😍✨

Zac Efron:] You know I want you It's not a secret I try to hide I know you want me So don't keep saying our hands are tied You claim it's not in the cards But fate is pulling you miles away And out of reach from me But you're here in my heart So who can stop me if I decide That you're my destiny? What if we rewrite the stars? Say you were made to be mine Nothing could keep us apart You'd be the one I was meant to find It's up to you And it's up to me No one can say what we get to be So why don't we rewrite the stars?

I love this song so much! My favorite from my favorite movie... everyone let's hear it for The Greatest Showman!!!👏👏👏

Kyungsoo and Suhyun's cover 😢❤

ZENDAYA’S VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL!!! I can’t wait for the movie!!! 😻😻😻❤️❤️❤️👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽✨✨✨

Everything is amazing on this song, especially the lyrics, very meaningful.

Kyungsooooo 😭😭

I love Zendaya's voice. She has so many talents.

I really hope this song get's talked about everywhere, it's a beautiful song. Zac's vocals are incredible, Zendaya's voice intertwines with Zac's so magically as well, they have a vocal chemistry, seriously. It reminds me of when Zac and Taylor Swift harmonized beautifully. Gorgeous song, and very radio friendly. I really hope the movie ends up being incredible and critically praised.

fun fact she did most of her own stunts for this movie

Zac is just THE man. Love every piece of he singing. Such a multitalent. And this movie is a piece of art and the soundtrack is out of this world. Probably one of the best ever done. Amazing

Here from Bang Chan (Stray Kids) -- just reminiscing on some of his favorite ballads

THIS DUET IS SO SO SO AMAZING AND BEAUTIFUL, I DIDNT KNOW I NEEDED BOTH ZENDAYA AND ZAC SINGING TOGETHER BUT NOW THAT I HAVE IT I CANT LIVE WITHOUT IT

Zac is finally singing after 10 years. He sounds so different but the same simultaneously

The lyrics, The tone of her voice, her performance ... everything about this song is AMAZING

I love how my dance teacher literally saw me tearing up as she’s playing this song for warm up and she walks up to me and goes “oh honey what’s wrong” and I can barely talk and all she hears is “it’s just this song” and she says “do you want me to change it” and I like wipe off tears and shake my head yes all because the girl across the room broke my heart and this was “our song”

This scene was so beautiful! The choreography was insane, and I sobbed

Me: * sees food * Also me: "You know I want you, it's not a secret I try to hide" edit: this comment has received way too many likes. this is how hungry we are.

I'm here because, D.O cover this song 😅 Love this song ❤

Idk how to explain it but music makes me feel so good. Like im so happy when im listening to music! It's a kind of happiness that i cant explain, only music can guve me this happiness.

i love how much their voices have matured since being at disney. both of their voices are beautiful, and really blends together. this movie is going to be amazing.

This soundtrack IS LIFE! I really can't believe the PERFECTION in every fucking second... It's incredible... REALMENTE LO AMO! El mejor soundtrack!

Honestly, it gives me some Aladdin "A whole new world" vibes...Just beautiful and those voices ~ MAGIC

本当にこのシーンは全てが完璧で素敵だった

The choreography of this scene was breathtaking. I felt like it successfully embodied the rollorcoaster of emotions.

I gotta say. This song describes the relationship I have with my Fiancé. I come from an upper middle class family against interracial dating, and the love of my life is a beautiful African American woman from lower class. The stares we get from all types of people are often ugly and my family acts close to Zacs in the movie. Regardless, my love her cant be contained and she was the one I was ment to find 💜 Movie was beautiful!

Zac has such an amazing voice!! 🥰❤️

BEST MUSICAL MOVIE EVER MADE IN HISTORY WITH AMAZING SONGS AND CAST :))

YALL, THE SCENE WHERE THIS SONG WAS SHOT IS UNBELIEVABLE!!!! YALL ARENT READY

their voice have matured so much since their disney years i’m in love

Here again because of D.O. of EXO 🤩

Listening to this song and remembering the good times, fought for the woman i was meant for from afar, as i watched her give into her fear and allow her past traumas to cause her to slip away. I will always love her. I miss you babygirl.

how do they manage to make every song the best one

ZENDAYA'S VOCALS 😱😻

진짜 들을때마다 소름..노래 진짜좋아…영화장면보면서 같이 들으면 환상..사랑해요 ㅜㅜ

Wish this song and others from the movie got more radio time like Shallow did. Song is beautiful and they both made it into something wonderful.

YOO ZENDAYA'S VOCALS HAVE IMPROVED SO MUCH OH MY GOSH HER VOICE IS SO AMAZIBG AND SOOTHING IM SHAKING THIS MADE ME TEAR UP IM SO PROUD OF MY BABIES

Oh my God I directly started crying just bc hearing his voice singing again Edit: oh my god thank you guys 😂😍😍😱 Omg : 2K thank you so much I feel you guys with those goosebumps ❤😭 Update: GUYS I'VE WATCHED IT AND I HAD TEARS LIKE THE WHOLE TIME.

This song is really described me with someone who i was really loved but i cant have it and also the same position like me for him. But who knows ,maybe after few years later while doing and going our own way,we may get in to again but meet from impossible

Im here because of D.O.

Just saw the movie. Brilliant from start to finish. Don't listen to the critics. I am 51 and had NO idea I was waiting my whole life to see this film. Your heart's gonna break wide open, be ready, it's beautiful.

Zac's Part: Fictional Characters Zendaya's Part: Me I can't have you. We're bound to break and my hands are tied 📚📖

Powerful voice wow. Love it here and with Dr suess

Sometimes it's absurd how much I can relate to a song

TROY BOLTON :')

The chemistry. The song. The story behind the song. ALL OF IT IS SO AMAZING. The fact that this was set in the 1860s, around the time when slavery was being fought against in the civil war, it makes this so much more heart-wrenching. How much they want to be with each other but the world doesn't want them to be. It's truly beautiful. Their differences make them perfect for each other in a way. UGH, I love this so much.

This song is very special for me and my mom. We both love this movie and whenever we go on road trips together, we inevitably play the soundtrack and duet this song. I take Zach's part and she takes Zendaya's part. Lots of fun memories just singing this at the top of our lungs :)

They're voices sounded amazing!!!!👍

my grades are up my skin is clear my crops are thriving I have 20/20 vision the sun is shining life is good

looks like troy bolton chose theatre. ahh the nostalgia

My favourite song. Favourite movie 💜

How have i only noticed that the image for this is animated, all the shiny bits in it and the title actually have an animation

This movie was fantastic. For anyone that refuses to see it "because it's a musical," they don't know what they're missing. It has a good story (regardless of its historical inaccuracies,) great choreography, great talent, and fun songs. It is completely worth seeing in theaters. The scene between Zac's and Zendaya's characters is beautiful. GO SEE IT!

It's sad how the cover has more views than this masterpiece

I love literally the entirety of The Greatest Showman and this song makes it even better love it so much!!

Has anyone here rewritten the stars?

God you can hear the chemistry in their voices. Zac's voice makes me melt

-The Stars- The Stars Yep, it's possible, you can rewrite the stars
