  • I've got a college deadline tomorrow morning that I'm absolutely shitting it about, panicking about nearly everything around me right now, but thanks for three minutes and fourty two seconds of thinking 'jeeeesus the stuff this guy makes is beautiful' in stead of 'oh my god i've got a deadline for the scariest teacher i've ever met and I think she's going to eat me and not in a good way and my life's a little bit of a mess so why am I on youtube and not doing something about it?', man.

  • Yo production guys! That tilt shift in post or are you using a lens baby? Loving the audio quality as well for a youtube video. Not to mention that dude is talented.

  • INSANE!!!!!!!

    

  • love this guy

  • simply stunning

  • You've been on repeat for probably an hour now... not sure if it's normal.

  • Great singing, and his intotation on the violin is great, especially considering that he is playing in c minor, which is a very tricky key on violin. And he still gets a strong sound.

    Haven't seen anyone who is able to play violin well and sing well, it's always one or the other. To be able to do both is . . .amazing, to say the least.

  • Its always over to soon!!

    Cant help my self but to click on repeat...

  • so.good.

  • So refreshing to watch something so different :)

  • hey sounds exactly like john legend!!!!

  • What a soul relief.

  • This is so dope

  • HOW CAN ANYBODY DISLIKE THIS??? It's so beautiful!!!

  • I keep coming back to this song & this artist over & over again, as the most beautiful & compelling music I've heard in years. I keep sharing your music out to share the joy, never before would I have listened to a violin alone, nor someone singing with a violin the only accompaniment as too pretty for me, just not into classical music. This is something else that speaks to my heart & soul & I can never forget the sound of your music.

  • Very awesome

  • You are mean't to be here on earth right now. thank you for your energy sharing.xx your true and that is precious.xx keep going.xx

  • wow

  • adore

  • I love him! his music is simply beautiful

  • holy

  • this is so ..soo unbelievable *-* i love it <3 

  • This is music, not shitty computer edited crap like Skrillex!

  • @loveTGOD dubstep isnt music to be loved or thought to be a beautiful thing.....its for moving...its metal for party ppl lol i love this music and i love dubstep but there is a time and place for the two.

  • @iRLadyKi113r yeah suppose that makes sense, I agree :)

  • this song makes me so powerful. love it so much!

  • Good voice and what camera are you using in this video?

  • Its ok i suppose, the higher notes on the violin are pitchy to say the least. Has great potential!

  • Comment removed

  • Man, you just made a fan base in Serbia...simply unbelievable...was dressing up when accidentally played this, and was sitting for 3.24 half-naked...showed it to my sister, she got goosebumps after ten seconds :)...we`re poor and we don`t buy cds, but if it means something, you truly changed somebody`s life and your name will be remembered till the end of my time :)))) ...

  • @ohooohoBama yeah your really poor mate, you can get onto youtube

  • @peterstephenmusic You don't have to have a computer at home to be on youtube... theres school and librarys... both of which are free...

  • @123t7 youd hope he wouldnt be naked in a library though :P

    but i do agree with you! hate trolls! :|

  • @ohooohoBama Were you still naked in front of your sister... weird

  • this is beautiful

  • Wow I want to play the violin and wondered if it was an instrument you can sing with!! Wonderful voice....

  • This replay button is gettin worn out

  • My hope in mankind...has been restored :)

  • WOW! :)

  • completely blown away. I'm beside myself.

  • This pulled emotion from within me that I didn't know was there. Thank you for sharing your gift and please keep on giving... I cried.

  • I doubt you've heard this yet, so am sharing. I'm now addicted to his sound, it's so simple it's amazing how much power comes from just a vocal and a violin like you have never heard it done before. Beautiful, words fail me.

  • Brockwell park ??

  • wow

    

  • Amazing performance.

  • what kind of lens is on your camera? tilt shift?

  • pure,soulfull why are we not hearing this on the radio and instead we are hearing a load of tampered with music,pretty much a load of rubbish. Its like you know his life through his words on and be great because you are phonominal at what you do.

  • WoOOooo! Brilliant!

  • .. really nice .. 

  • in donny?

  • is this filmed at cussy hall?

  • oh my gooooodnessss!!! chills!

  • so good i have to thumbs up you in text o(-.-)b

  • WOW

    

  • I don't usually leave comments, but wow this guy is so talented! This is true music instead of the dubstep crap on the radio, big respect for this guy!

  • Does this artist have his own channel here, or profile anywhere? I'd like to support his music & buy his stuff as well as help promote (free) his gorgeous music. I had a hell of a time trying to find this video again after finding it last night (for some reason it didn't get added in faves despite adding it there). He is the best find this year as far as I'm concerned :)

  • I love original, unique & unusual music/elements/sounds. This guy is breaking all the rules brilliantly. I love his voice as well as the interesting way he plays the violin. I hope he goes far in his success, he deserves it for the fight he must have put up to express himself this way, in the face of so many stereotypes. Such a gorgeous bit of music & what a talent, wow.

  • now this is music to my ears dam he gunna change everything in music

  • is this a cover or another version of the song? i have the feeling that i know this song :P but i rly love it!

  • @BANNMICHDOCHM nope. Just me.

    

  • John legends just got competition on my playlist!

  • black people and violins make an unstoppable duo

  • @joemx25 I couldn't agree more, well said.

  • I love this but does anyone else hear the ridiculous resemblance to his song "White Sails"? You can't hear it in the studio version but here it is really obvious lol

  • @TheBHilzerMusic Yea, taking nothing away form the song, its great, but the rhythm is exactly the same as White Sail, it sounds like the same vocals as well but in a different order.

  • Amazing! once again i'm reminded God does exist.

  • @poppamayhem I was reminded of exactly that the other day when i saw my neighbours about dog take a dump in my garden. The turtles head was right there, i was like noooooo and then the sprinklers came on!

    How he moves in mysterious ways!

  • @FlyingVneckSweater Also this sounds like a case of shit happens.

  • Wow!!

  • he is like a black andrew bird.

  • I think the amazing thing about this is that you can totally invision how in his head there's a full orchestra behind him, and you can almost hear them too with only one man, one instrument, and one heck of a lot of soul.
