  • so sexy...

  • Huh. He reminds of a melodramatic emo kid. I think I really do prefer Prince Poppycock over him. At least Poppycock has some...happiness in him. And some humor. This guy is just..."Oh...I hope I make it.....for my grandparents and stuff...." He's just flat-out boring.

  • @PrincessLittleMoon

    Huh? I'm not sure how he resembles any kind of emo kid at all, but he's 10x more talented which is why he won

  • @PrincessLittleMoon You obviously can't feel the emotion just flying off of this guy. You are probably too immature to feel his pain. He's not flashy. He's boring because he's not trying to use it to impress people. He doesn't want the sympathy.

  • Anyone else think this man resembles Heath Ledger and Orlando Bloom together? I'd say a good mix of both!

  • @wspeed37 HIS FACE REMEMBER ME ANDY GIBB SO MUCH RESEMBLES I THINK

  • Comment removed

  • fantastic

  • absolutely amazing

    

  • Prince Poppycock should have won.

  • @Dan474834

    No, Michael Grimm was definitely the right winner =))

  • @Dan474834 NO Michael Grimm is Waaaaaaaaaay Better

  • i think he would perform the song Try a Little Tenderness amazing cause his voice is perfect for that song!!

  • @torch026

    He does =)) If you go to michaelgrimmmusic(dot)com, amazon, or itunes there's a version of it on his "leave your hat on" album and on his "live album"... Personally, I like the one on his "live" album better cuz he belts it out a little more and I like that, but both versions are awesome.

  • His voice is a mix of Joe Cocker and Bruce Springsteen... the best of them!

  • his eyes are so expressive. just like his voice

  • Just "discovered " Michael Grimm within the past few days thru a youtube link . I work nights and have been losing a lot of sleep because I cannot stop listening to this guy to get any sleep :) He is incredible - can;t get enough of Michael Grimm . And it annoys me when in the past , the judges said he was not connecting with the audience - I highly doubt that . They were on their feet, cheering , LOVING this guy -he's so real ,so talented . Just love him !

  • He reminds me of Joe Cocker. Awesome. God Bless you Michael.

  • i made my second child to Micheal's version of this song ! :)

  • I missed this entire season of AGT and hearing about Michael Grimm I decided to play his videos.  He's a really good singer and reminds me of Michael Bolton. I'm really happy he won; it's people like this who deserves a chance.

  • A little Mississippi man making it big!! Thats just great ,I'm also from Mississippi and I love to see talent from our state. And to make it big let Micheal I think it,s great keep the good work up .And I wish you all the luck in the world,your a great singer/song writer.Love ya man!!!!

  • @1965flygirl i agree with you i'm also from mississippi

  • i am 17 and in love with music like this!! songs nowadays are nothing but garbage!! as long as you have the moeny and they daddy *cough cough miley cyrus* then you can "be famous"...i want to hear people who can really sing and who are really talented back on the radio..and some good songs to..true love songs!! not this dumb stuff they have now..so excited to get his cd!

  • @LALALUVSCRISS

    =)) awesome comment!! And I couldn't agree more! His album comes out on Tuesday at Walmart, Target, and Best Buy. I can't wait to pick up a copy! If you go to his "bandpage" tab on facebook you can listen to the whole album! "Stay with me baby" is absolutely amazing, and his originals "I am" "something i said", and "lets make love again" are incredbile. I hope you check it out =)) ....I'm in my early 20's, so I know what you mean about the crappy music today. MG is different

  • @LALALUVSCRISS nice to see there is still some hope for this generation musically. :)

  • *13 days till his new cd: Michael Grimm' is out, May 17th! Incl. his audition song You Don't Know Me, incredible single Fallin' he sang on 'Ellen' & beautiful original song I Am..Can't wait for new cd!!*

  • ♪♪ 27 days till his new cd: 'MICHAEL GRIMM' is released!! ♪♪

  • His new cd will be out May 17th! U can pre-order his 'new cd/dvd bundle' at his website! The new cd's titled 'MICHAEL GRIMM' & the bonus dvd includes AGT shows, interviews & the making of the cd! U can order the cd only at Amazon.com & download (Itunes too) his incredible new single FALLIN' that he sang on 'Ellen' (video)..It's amaaazing!!

  • You look sorta like orlando bloom!

  • @sageboone i think he kinda looks like orlando bloom to!! haha

  • @keekie5 Iagree. I liked all of them, but this one was my favorite with You Can Leave Your Hat On a close second! He sang the crap out of When A Man Loves A Woman, of course, but I have never liked that song.

  • Why take out judges comments?

  • i love how he's very humble..it's almost as if he doesn't recognize how much talent he has...he's a natural star.

  • CONGRATS MICHAEL !!!

  • This is the performance that pretty much guaranteed his victory! I think this was his best vocal perofrmance ever!

  • where is the judgement? really dumb cut...

  • I wish there was a longer version of this, i swear. <3

  • I wish there was a longer version of this, i swear. <3

  • He's an absolutely amazing singer!

  • 37 people peed on their pants hearing this and go "shit u got me wet u ass. Now i have to change"

  • one of my favorite singers

  • @keekie5

    Yeah Same

  • @keekie5 agreed!!

  • how the heck did he win?!? Don't get me wrong he was pretty good, but Jackie Evanco can sing opera for goodness sake! And she is only ten! Just hearing about how this guy beat her I had to go check it out, I must say i'm not very impressed.

  • @sydleberry9

    Grimm has one of the best soul voices I've ever heard. If you like opera better then that's your own thing. But I'd rather listen to Grimm over her anyday. Not to say she isn't good, I just don't like opera, and niether do a lot of other people.

  • @sydleberry9

    but honestly... before you judge him, you should watch his other youtube videos on here that are unrelated to AGT.. If you watch Michael Grimm "Id rather go Blind" or Michael Grimm "The Reason" (he wrote this song)... I think you'll be much more impressed....BTW, sorry if I came off as rude in the other post, didn't mean to. It's hard to give a tone of voice in text, lol.

  • @Rndy09 Oh no you didn't sound rude at all! Thanks for being cool about it, i hate when people have to pick fights! I'll go check it out now! Thanks again!

  • @sydleberry9

    lol no problem. Honestly I hope you change your mind about him. He actually toned it down for the show.

  • @sydleberry9 yeah, but she has her whole life ahead of her. This was "now or never" for him. I mean he is thirty. I think he really deserved it.

  • Fantastic

  • great performance so far

  • F**K you, Grimm! Prince Poppycock should have won!!!

  • @bradbro09 i did prefer poppycock, but without a doubt, his last performance sucked, it was "nice" vocally... but thats not him... Poppycock was especially about the entertainment, he was fun to watch... And he did blow it :(

    michael grimm on the other hand did awesome on his final... even though poppycock wouldve beaten him on a normal day... sad, but shit happens

  • @wisso1

    Eh idk, I think it all just comes down to personal preference. I honestly didn't like Poppycock because I'm not a fan of opera, I just don't like that kind of voice. Grimm's voice on the otherhand I could listen to all day. So I agree with you about what happen on the final performances, but to me, Grimm always outdid Poppycock.. Like I said, personal preference.

  • @Rndy09 Disagree. I think Poppycock isn't someone you would buy a Cd of but rather watch. He's both visually and vocally talented when Grimm just stands there. He has a great voice, but his pizzaz lacked.

  • @FuckYeahItsSuchal

    It's not Grimm's style to move around and dance. That's Poppycocks thing. To me, I don't need to see an artist dance around on stage, I'd rather just listen to Grimm's soulful voice over Poppycocks dancing opera act. Again, personal preference.

  • @Rndy09 dude poopy cock is a disgustign fruit fuck.. who thinks he has somethin goin but hes really just a fuckign pedo idiot. michael grimm is fucking flawless

  • @kennyispoor

    lol well, I didn't really want to say it like that but ok. lol I agree Michael Grimm is fuckin awesome!

  • Comment removed

  • @bradbro09

    Dude go F**k yourself... Grimm is awesome. 

  • incredible.

  • Can anyone tell me the name of song played during his interview, before his preformance?

  • You're looking at a REAL STAR!!

  • that has to be tough without the guitar... i still say he did great !

  • @candythrower it's actually easier

  • so great he won(^.^) he has a good heart and i love that .

  • Kinda boring, really.

  • @prettybabycatty1109

    I disagree, even it was boring, the guys voice is amazing. I've never heard anybody cover an Al Green song the way he does. I say it's legendary =))

  • @prettybabycatty1109 i ALSO DISAGREE.. he is just AMAZING!!!

  • The one thing I liked about Michael is that the first time he started to sing without his guitar.

  • very well~~in fact when i watch him sing in this season.. i totally fall in him~~ he sing from the heart & voice so sexy !!! like my soulmate!!!

    luv you Michael Grimm!! keep it up!!!!

    fans from HK :)))

  • I love you Michael Grimm!! I love your voice.... I am so glad you won!!! You deserved everything. Expetally when you made Jackie Evancheo feel better.... Hope to see your CD's soon!! All your friends love you so much were all happy you won!!

  • He is good... and the best part... He went on to win it all...

  • Hey it's maestro alexander bui here, i wish you all the great luck. your life has changed and i was lucky to meet such a humble talented man like you :) -Alexander Bui

  • @BuiAlexander You are also a great act Alexander! Greetings from Denmark.

  • Just rename the show to America Can Sing. Any other act should not even bother.

  • Comment removed

  • @nguaconcaoco

    But she's not better than him.. If you speak of overall talent, he takes it.. he's an outstanding singer, great guitar player, and even a great song writer ( i have his music)... jackie is great but I get bored listening to her.. I could listen to Grimm's voice for hours.. he just appeals to a much wider audience.

  • haizz, cant believe this guy won over Jackie, I guess that's not really the fact many people like me wanna see, anyway, it's good end for Jackie, for her career, it might ruine her future if she suceeds too early. Just look how difference the Pier, Sharon and Howie reacted to their performances I think Jackie will soon prove her talent better than him

  • leaving his voice aside, hes freaking HOT,

    yum

  • >:( SCREW IT!!!!!!

    EVERY SEASON BUT TERRY FATOR EVERY SEASON WAS A SINGER WHO WON!!!!

  • umm... no offense Michael Grimm. You're a great looking guy, but you need a new hat :P

  • Michael Grimm can sing to me anytime. He has a voice I will NEVER get tired of. There were others with some talent on the show this year. Imo Michael was the clear winner. He has an appeal for every age. Both sexes love him. That cant be said of any of the others. So for me he deserved the win the money and every good thing that is about to come his way. See he has a pretty lady in his life and that is a + Bring on the music Michael your now in the top spot of MY music favorites.
  • wow gorgeous voice

  • f-ing great great song. he did it justice and deserved to win

  • To be honest, Evancho is great ! and PP is magnificent but they wont last for so long talking about market profits, Grimm can sing the song that I could hear for the rst of my life..that one that will remind me the special one, He can go with me anywhere..I actually love this cover so much I wanna have it on my music player, no matter what!

  • my god !!! his version needs a download link ASAP

  • i wanted michael grasso to win =(

  • ah my god how cliche.. the pop pretty boy wins when even though jackie is okay with it, I can believe that she lost to this boy band like boy.. ah it is pissing me of, because even though she is young doesn't mean she can't be a star hello.. Charlotte Church did it?

  • @Mie133 shut up bish

  • @Mie133

    lol what? Michael Grimm is no where near pop dumbass... I hope you know you sound like an idiot... He's a soul and blues singer.. And I like his voice much better than Jackie.. Go bitch about it somwhere else.

  • @Mie133

    I uh, think you have your music genres mixed up.

  • @Mie133 Yeah and then Charlotte Church destroyed her voice by pushing to sound like an adult too soon. I hope Jackie's parents and managers don't let her do the same. Serioulsy, though, the people voted for Michael because, clearly, they would rather listen to him. I enjoyed Jackie and thought she was very impressive, but Michael's album is the one I downloaded off Amazon.

  • @Mie133 Are you deaf? or just stupid?

    Michael is not a POP singer. Further he is nowhere NEAR a frabricated "boy band" type! Hell he is 30+...my God ! Are you 100 years old and blind to think a 30 year old man looks like a 17 year old boy?

  • what song?

  • I love you michael and I am so glad you won, you totally deserve it! my favorite singer ever. I know you'll probably never read this but you're amazing :)

    also..if jackie was older then she would never have made top 10. michael isn't a cute little girl so we know that he won solely because of his talent and I'm so glad she didn't win. one more thing I have to say, is that I love prince poppycock.

  • this guy sounds awesome, love his voice, i've seen a lot of comments from people saying he was sooo much better than jackie evancho, which i disagree with because while he's got a great voice it's nothing that the world hasn't seen before, but it is good that he won since he needed it more and jackie has her whole life ahead of her to win competitions and whatnot. you're both awesome!

  • @andrebm301 Personally I think that theres a thousand voices out there like Jackie Evancho, only difference is that she's 10. Michael Grimm's voice is just so soulful tho, and I haven't heard too many voices like it.

  • @andrebm301

    I agree that isn't right to compare the 2 because they're 2 completely different genres; however, I truly believe that the attention that Evancho was getting was just because she is 10. Not that she isn't amazing, because I would be an idiot to say that, but I believe that if she was Michael's age, she would have been just another opera singer, ya know? But, I've never heard anybody like Michael Grimm sing with so much soul and passion, and that's what makes him unique.

  • Nick j1zzed at the end

  • Unjaded2 start with music appreciation 101and work your way up. Even then, you may learn something about the art but the heart and "soul" will still elude you. Really good blues transcends the mundane and lifts you to another plane. This is what Michael Grimm does with his music.

  • Thank the Lord he won. He deserved it so much. My heart goes out to him. I love him.

  • I can hardly wait to get his first CD. I will be your life long fan.  You go Michael!

  • HE WAS GOOD WHEN HE DID THA BLUES SONGS CUZ HE SHOW THA PAIN FROM HIS LIFE IN THOSE SONGS BUT ROCKED THE HELL OUT OF THA LOVE SONGS WAY TO GO MICHAEL I VOTED FOR YOU EVERY TIME BE WAITING FOR YOUR CD

  • GOOD JOB TO THE WINNER OF AGT.AND A GREAT SONG.WELL DONE.

  • AVG AT BEST . DIDNT WATCH THE SHOW . AT LEAST HE SINGS ON KEY . I HAVE HEARD MUCH BETTER AT KAREOKEE

  • @unjaded2 Avg at best? LMAO

    You obviously don't really understand soul and blues. That edge in his voice is one in a million. Lots of people can hit the notes.

    Gimm hits your heart and soul!

    Me and my sweetheart were just browsing through Youtube today and I played this song like I have 20 times before. But today spontainiously without a word we started dancing in the living room. Thats what really good music can do!

  • @unjaded2

    If you've heard better at kareokee then I want to know where the hell you go to hear kareokee because I've never heard anybody better than him in this world..

  • what's this song called again?

  • SMOOTH AND COOL... HE'S AWSOME... CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BIG WIN!

    YOU DESERVE IT! LOVE YOUR VERSION OF ALL THE CLASSIC R& B SONGS.

    IT'S YOUR TIME NOW.... BRAVO!

  • Any girl would fall in love watching and listening this performance of Michael. But hey, I read from Wikipedia article it says he purposed to his gf of three years already...that's must leave us girls heartbroken too, but it's alllrrriiiiiiiiiiighhhhhhhht wit me.

  • @megustaverlas *proposed

  • Does anyone know the name of the song that he's singing?

  • Amazing!!

  • Seriously?

    THIS of all things beat Prince Poppycock?

  • @ArktisFuchs

    Well yeah.. cuz this is wayyy better than Poppycock... I could listen to this all day, I can't listen to poppycock for more than 2 seconds.

  • @Rndy09 It's a TALENT show. Not American Idol.

  • @ArktisFuchs

    Isn't singing a talent?? He's too old for idol, you have to be 16-28

  • @ArktisFuchs  seriously--YES HE DID and everyone else on the show too.:)))

  • @121jackpot Guess it just goes to proves more tweenagers girls with cellphones watch this than anyone else. Oh well, such is life.

  • @ArktisFuchs what it PROVED is that more people -of all ages -liked Michael better than PP--you need to stop whinning..

  • @1110loveyouman If you think voicing an opinion is whining, you have issues.

    With that, I'm done wasting IQ points on Youtube.

  • bought his last cd...what a voice!

  • I can't stop listening to this, i really want a perfect quality of him singing this song, to keep listening to it over and over again, when i'm on my way to work and all that stuff. Grimm, Congratulation, I'm one of your biggest fans :).

  • im glad this competition this year. he definitely deserved it!!!!

  • He sounds like jonny lang. I love his voice!

  • He could be another Robin Thicke

  • Michael is better than any of those American Idol male singers. I was voting for you in the finale because you are so good. Congrats!

  • this was fixed,,,he new he was gona WIN,,,,he toured with HEART,,and opened the show,,for HEART,, at the horse shoe casino,,,in IND,,and has cds out

  • @casinoman32 if it was fixed, jackie would have won

  • @casinoman32 - Michael is actually the only one out of the final four who stood in line to audition for the show. The other three were discovered and recruited by the producers online. At the time of the auditions, Jackie Evancho had a CD that was #121 on the top 200 Billboard, had performed on TV with the legendary David Foster and was scheduled to perform at Carnegie Hall, among many other accomplishments.

  • What A Hottie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Many Blessings to you Michael.I fell in love with you.

  • omg i love him

  • GRRRRRRRRREAT Soulful voice and a great guy. SO happy that he won!

    Congratulations, Michael and can't wait to see you perform live. I will be following your career for a very, very long-time. :)

  • When is the cd coming out ?!!!!!! I am so happy that Michael won. I knew he would from the moment he sat on the stool. Congrats. I could listen to that wonderful, soulful, and very sexy voice day and night. Wow You are soo blessed. Enjoy this journey, and I will be waiting for that cd......dont take too long. :)

  • Ya' know, i really wanted Fighting Gravity to win, and i thought they were AMAZING, and definitely a Vegas act, and i was so mad to hear them come in 3rd place. Like seriously i would have settled for them coming in 2nd at least, like seriously how did Jackie come in 2nd....oh well. I think Michael Grimm is amazing as well, and it makes me a little happier that he won. Good job! :)

  • He always delivers perfect performance and God blessed his heart because his perfomances are all for his grand mother. CONGRATULATIONS MICHAEL.

  • I had him picked from day one!! My favorite won!!!

  • YESSSS he won! :)

  • What a cutie....so glad he won. He deserved it. 

  • I liked you before, but this song sealed it! I could listen to you sing all day. Thank you. (BTW - to everyone else, he has some of his music on iTunes)

  • Incredible singer. He has a website. It is michaelgrimmmusic. I think he has the potential of being a huge record seller. I have purchased his current cd, and it is wonderful. Thanks for being discovered.

  • OH MY GOD ! MICHAEL GRIMM YOU ARE FANTASTIC! I LOVE YOUR VOICE! Lots of feelings and passion! CONGRATS>>>>>am so happy for you! I AM YOUR NUMBER 1 FA- since day one , I have been voting for you!!! LOVE

  • at ouayang! YES HE DOES!!! And he reminds me of a young Bob Dylan (Jakob's father).

  • his voice reminds me of jacob dylan's from wallflowers!

    very nice

  • glad you won!!

  • Congrats !!!! I loved you from the beginning!! I can't wait till you have a album out. You have a soul full voice that i have not heard in a long time. God Bless you in your new journey in life.

  • I think i like this version better than the orginal.

  • FIGHTING GRAVITY

  • Nick Cannon said it best during the first audition " Now that's a superstar's voice right there." That's true Nick.

  • Congrats Michael!! Well-deserved!! I'm sure your grandparents are so proud of you.

  • I'm really glad he won. Jackie Evancho is unbelievable but she's young and will be a star anyway. It's good to see a nice guy like this fulfill a dream.

  • So glad he won. What a good person. Can't wait to see him in Vegas!

  • @spokeshole  - he already lives and performs in clubs and small venues all over Vegas.

  • i love you Michael Grimm.... totally deserved that win. me and my mom we're like michaelmichaelmaichaelmichaelm­ichaelmichaelmichaelmichael! ! lol ! :D <3

  • Much deserved! And when he checked to see if Jackie was okay after his name was called, it made my heart melt. What a top notch guy. My husband and I will definitely be buying his CD's. We love him! Congratulations, Michael! Come see us in Lake Charles, LA. We'll be honored to buy tickets to see you perform! God Bless You!

  • @jantube1226 lul

  • Someone needs to pay him just to speak (documentary... voice over... book on tape) ANYTHING! Dudes voice is amazing and he doesn't even need to sing.

  • Well, my family and I were strongly for Prince Poppycock, but as long as Jackie lost, Id be happy if Mary Ellen won for crying out loud!!! Congratulations Michael Grimm!!!!!!!

  • MICHEAL GRIMM WON F U JACKIE EVANCHO LOVERS HE WONNNNNN

  • Congratulations Michael. My wife and I both voted for you. Well done and you deserved it.

  • Michael you are a great singer, hope you win. You sound just like Michael Bolton.

  • definitely gonna vote for him...

  • What's the name of the song? And the original artist?

  • @ZoeSquared21 ......Let's stay together...by Al Green

  • Same old sh*T everytime he sings. FU PIERS!

  • Michael definitely is a natural when it comes to a talented singer. His voice is so soulful. Not just anyone has that voice...that is acquired after years of experience in singing! My vote will go to Michael!!!

  • Jackie Evancho maybe an amazing opera singer, Prince Poppycock may give great performances, and Fighting Gravity may have a great original act, but real, raw talent goes to Michael Grimm. He deserves to win.

  • Idk y but with that hay Michael grim reminds me ALOT of Shia lebouf or w.e. I love Shia L. Has anybody else noticed that this season of agt has become a big pity party. "I ran away from home" or "I'm doing this fr my grandma" or "we had to leave school/college to do this" or "I've nvr had self confidence" or "we have disabilities but we can still sing" etc etc. I dont doubt that its mostly true and it only comes to show what difficult lives some Americans live.
