  • Simon spotted the shining diamond inside Shaheen that was about to pass without recognition.

    Simon did an excellent job in changing the song. This lesson showed millions people, that it is not enough to have a talent, but what where it should be, that what really matters.

  • W.O.W HE HAS a gift and he should take it! shaheem,stavros flatley and flawless in last 3

  • AMAZING!

  • you dont have to worry - shaheen will be sining the song he sang in this audition at the final! :P He's bound to win by that!!

  • One Word: GREAT!

  • daaamn.. maan i'm soo high. i think this kid is an angel or somthin... maybe it's god himself lol

  • i think he is very good but listen to this girl who is also very good put this in search Grace O'Malley, Nessun Dorma (None Shall Sleep)

  • O.O God damn! he is good

  • He has a gift

  • i so love him

  • What is the kids heritage ? iraq iranian turkish >

    brilliant voice ,Surely this kid must be already known with a voice like that ?

  • he's persian .. ye iranian

  • He is iranian

  • FODA

  • words can explain how BRILLIANT this boy is!!! If he doesn't win I hope Simon takes him under his wing like he did Leona.

  • does someone understand why he sang valerie at the beginning with a voice like that? I mean... LOL

  • fucking simon is flicking the kid off, damn hobo.

    look for your selfs;

    1:05/3:39

  • You are truly a moron. When you hear Simon talk, do you notice anything? Like, maybe an accent? Ever wonder where he got that accent? It's called another country, the US isn't the only one, or hadn't you noticed? Scary concept, I know, but if you can keep up, in different countries, believe it or not, they actually use different hand gesticulations to insult people. Go fucking die you piece of shit.

  • Oh, and by the way, that kid has a good voice, I don't know who I like better, him, or Susan Boyle, both are gifted with amazing voices. Both deserve contracts, sorry about the flame, morons piss me off.

  • omg!!!! kids' got madd talent dude! amzinq voice, jus incredible! nd&& he yunga thn me haha, wish iCuld blow like tht omg! good jbo!

  • owns david archuleta... and they look the same age!

  • yeah a thousand times better than david archuleta. XD although david can sing but shaheen's in a whole different universe

  • lol, he's twelve and davids way older!!

  • super ...extra

  • When people do an act on britians got talent, they all have to have a back up plan, so like 2 songs on one disk !!... thats why he happened to have it !

  • he is amazing a love him

  • nothing against susan but this kid is more talented. Sadly Susan will probably win though cause people like that kind of story. But this kid is special. Better than David Archuleta was in american idol last year.

  • yup. this kid OWNS david archuleta by miles.

  • i agree except im not sure susan will win girls are the main voters on this show im sure theyl vote him. hopefully

  • LOVE this kid!!!

  • Okay, he's all set to sing Amy Winerhouse, gets cut off and just 'happens' to have Michael Jackson music on hand for a back-up? Yeah, okay.

  • Dude, they have a LOT of back tracks in their store, there was obviously a skit before he done it but it's similar to a radio station where there is a base of music?

  • I know it's so fake! Yeah I'll bring MJ back up just in case...and also remember how to sing in key

    x

  • He's ok but no Susan

  • are you on drugs? he's ten susans lol

  • he is an amazing singer and his voice is beautiful

    he is just a very nice boy trying to follow his dream, don't be rude, it's just a kid

  • The Welch boy sounds more like another pop act marketing. Even though is adorable and talented, the show seems staged (fake as if the choice of a childhood M. Jackson song is not a coincidence). However, Susan is very good. She doesn't only sing. She touches the heart and brings some light into this dark world of credit crunch, foreclosure, war on terror, gov baillout... Listening to Susan singing lifts up even the most depressed soul. Only great singers can accomplish that miracle!

  • hehe.. its not 'welch"..... its welsh

  • there just looking for someone to beat susan don't think so though.

  • Many thanks, amazing video, ***** Stars !

  • wow i didnt know about this it is very interesting you see this is one of the reasons why i like you tube its such a great learning tool.

  • you always have a back up no matter what and thats also one of the things they require in Britains got talent and Xfactor to always come prepared with another song and anyway this still doesnt take the fact he has amazing vocal talent especially at such a young age he was great on both songs he has amazing vocal talent end off and I dont know why people cant actually celebrate and be proud of the fact theres some amazing undiscovered talent in britian instead of focusing on flaws

  • entering x factor , the same with beyonce, mariah carey, you dont just suddenly wake up with an amazing voice and then decide to go on britains got talent

  • Most singers dont suddenly wake up and start singing and then decide to go on x factor or britains got talent , you have vocal lessons/training go for auditions to build on your confidence and vocal ability it really irritates me the lack of knoweledge people have about music/vocal talent and the music industry its self most great singers have experiences from a young age Leona Lewis had done countless auditions before x factor , trained classicaly , was signed to epic and had 2 demos before

  • @happyharry86

    @MommaElin

    shaheen actually means falcon in Arabic

  • That was all staged!!! Cowell never gives anyone a second chance!!!!

    The boy sung that MJ song in front of thousands when he toured the UK, Germany and Holland playing the young Michael Jackson in the Thriller Live Musical!!!

    Shaheen is far from amateur and has also been in Torchwood, on Children's BBC and is at stage school so no wonder he's got so much confidence! He also played Troy in Grandpa in my Pocket on CeeBeebies on BBCTV!

  • Godlike child, blessing in the sky, heart opener...Shaheen = king of kings

  • Aw. <3

  • LIKE HIS GENEALOGY OR WHERE ON THE PLANET HIS PARENTS HAD SEX MATTERS PEOPLE!!!

    The kid can sing, and Simon did save him, indeed. I have a new respect for Simon. So STFU about irrelevant things people, get your heads out of your asses.

  • Comment removed

  • Simon saved him...

  • lmao whats with the breaking free song in the end..

  • yeah it sounds stupid

  • This kid is 10X's the singer Susan Boyle is, and probably than most of the people on American Idol. Absolutely amazing. If he doesn't win, I'm protesting.

  • Wicked! This kid's got some incredible power in his voice.

  • he is really good for his age i wish i coul do that

  • Where did all of these great singers come form?

  • wow dude, that's not even kinda funny, just dumb... :)

  • He sings just like all the singers do on American idol. A lot of noise. they all sound the same. All the songs sound the same. They could sing Jingle Bells and it woulld suond the same. I guess they dont know how to make a song sound the way it is supposd to sound.

  • he is awesome!

  • He is amazing, i hope he wins!! x

  • Simon Cowell clearly knows his stuff

  • I didn't think much of him either....

    I read a whole article about him in thesun today...

    His dad is indian and his mum is british from wales...

  • Iranian actually................

  • He is NOt iranian. He is from indian parents.

  • lol you are just so stupid, Indian people aint white, and for fuck sake look at his name

    SHaheen jafagholi >>>> Persian name and family name.

    so how about shut the fuck ?

  • Dude, he's Iranian. A name like "Shaheen Jafargholi" doesn't get any more Persian. Shaheen, "kings".

  • go fuck your muma you stupid fukin indian shit he is half iranian half english

    0% indian shit hahaha

  • i was surprised when i found out he was like kind of Iranian lol

    i mean his name is persian ( iranian ) but im not sure about the rest lol

    he is good

  • lol don't be stupid look at his name, and he is white. lol

  • He is INDIAN!!

    He has an indian surname....

    Have you ever been to India..?

    People from Southern India are basically WHITE...whiter than this kid...

    The indians you see in Britain and America working in supermarkets and cornershops are all from Gujurat and Central India...

    North Indians look like this kid!

    This kid's DAD is north indian...there was a whole write up about him in the newspaper today...

  • actually, he is not indian, he is british.....dumb ass

  • half true, as I read on mirrors today he was born here.

    His dad is Persian (Iranian) and his mother is English.

    I don't really know what makes you think that he comes from India lol

    his first and family is 100% Persian ;)

  • I must not have any taste because I think his singing stinks....

  • Comment removed

  • He's great, but, why did Simon do that? Why did he stop him?

  • I think he knew that he was trying to sing a song which didn't suit his voice.. so it didn't sound right.

  • He probably thought he was better than the song or he thought that his voice didnt suit that type of song, but he did the boy a favour changing his song anyways, he sang soooo well in the 2nd one !

  • Puberty will ruin his voice! He should take anti-androgens like Michael Jackson then he can have a beautiful, clean, non-deep voice that will let him sky-rocket!

  • @Tifftrinity: why does everybody say puberty will ruin his voice? What is with Justin Timberlake, David Archuleta, NKOTB, BSB, or all other Young Boys to Men voices? Bon Jovi and Aerosmith, one day they was also young or not? A lot of them now successful...Why not he?

  • He's AMAZING!!

    Whe he started singing the Michael Jackson song I was like, WOW!!!!

    Glad Simon made him change the song!

  • Just tell me... who's Wales?

  • ..........it's a country.............

  • Knew I've heard dat b4...

    Thanx...

  • Cowell will turn this kid into another Lil' Chris or even worse Eggnog Quigg.

  • who's posting the links here from the susan boyle video? this kid's parents or something?

  • wow. what a little star. bless him. so talented. i hope he goes all the way.

  • Incredible. He is great!

  • Although he's close to puberty, it's possible he could grow up with a wide range, like Rob Halford or something. This kid has potential

  • Judges have a list beforehand of the people auditioning and their act and possible song selection(s).

  • So staged - why set up ??

    He is talented, but don't want him to win bcoz i feel this is set up ... simon your plan will backfire

  • He's adorable and has a good voice. I don't think he's anywhere in the same category with Susan Boyle, but then again - she is UNIQUE. It's wonderful kids that age are so into their dream.  The older you get, the harder it is to hold on to that dream. Hang in their kid, you have plenty of time.

  • My respect for Simon has increased tremendously since both this and the Susan Boyle audition. He is a music producer and he knows talent when he sees it. Notice that he stood up and clapped for Shaheen but not for Susan; why? Don't know really, but probably Susan presents a harder person to market to a music-buying public that likes youth and beauty as well as ability. Shaheen is young and will attract the young Miley Cyrus-Hannah Montana kids.

  • The auditions are pre-recorded not live so they were recorded in jan/feb sometime (not sure exact month). I think all the singing contestants are asked to prepare 2 songs just incase anything happens..pretty sure thats what happens anyways. I dont think it was rigged either but they do obviously pick and choose who they put on the television and the fact that Simon made him change to his other song made good television so thats probably why they showed it.

  • Why does it matta ifhes been in a lil programme? a short lil part in a tv show .. wtf! hes not a actor hes clearly a singer so why do people think he dnt deserve it coz of that pathetic end oof the day hes a amazin singer xx

  • I think what happened here was that Simon might have heard a clip of his good song at some point and wanted him to be a featured auditioner. Someone else probably influenced the choice for a different song to be sung, and Simon was a bit angry and intervened. I don't think it was "rigged" really - but I think that Simon might have wanted this kid to have a bigger shot with a better song.  - my opinion.

  • No comparison to Susan Boyle. The kids voice lacks depth. It sounds strained. He'll get older and his voice will change. Cute but let's see him in 20 years. Susan Boyle is still number one!!! Go Susan!!!

  • LOL TRY PUT HIS NAME ON A COVER

  • thoese were my questions lol

  • i'm glad simon did this for him. great call.

  • Excellent voice!

    Did you all see how Simon moved his middle finger across his lips right at the start of the boy second try?

  • holy hell. good talent, hope it just keeps improving with age.

  • good sing, good pitch. still something miss compare with Susan...

    Your song do not fire with spirit wave to shock people inside out... (just how I felt..)

  • The boy is already a star of sorts. he has a part on a cbbc show called grandpa in my pocket. he also had chameos in torchwood and casualty.

  • he looks like little Mario Lopez :)

  • not really.. He'd EASY get a record deal. If Susan walked in to get a record deal WITHOUT singing before this , you think she would have? both good , but well Simon will sign em both up .. after all he is a "business man" ... funny though I thought it was about music.... not money

  • Wow, Britain most definitely has talent. First Susan, now Shaheen! Neither need worry about the outcome of this competition. They don't even need it anymore!

  • I love this young man! He is amazing.

  • Simon is amazing. he knows what he's doing

  • Brittan has all the good singers on their show!

  • Cute kid, nice voice. He has his whole world ahead of him but its not the story like Susan's. Susan Boyle is more than a voice its a life redeemed, someone who the whole WORLD would think was written off. A talented child is cute, Susan is a miracle in this shallow world.

  • Set up

    set up

    set up

    yeah he was good but its a set up

  • i agree with you. the boy has been getting parts on tv for a few years now. he is already a star of sorts

  • Incredible voice. My heart sank when Simon stopped the performance but what a come back!!! He definitely has the talent to get to the finals. Susan Boyle may have captured the hearts of the world but she's going to have competition.

  • Gosh how old is this boy? He's cute! Is he of mix parentage? Definitely will be in the finals...

  • OMG sooo talented!

  • I totally love this guy.

  • wow. he is absouletly amazing. A definite star in the making. :)

  • i was in another room when i heard him and thought it was a girl

  • unfortunately his voice will change after the puberty, lets hope that this doesnt happen

  • castrate him, that should do the trick.

  • I like the boy, but I Susan Boyle is the winner so far.

  • This was totally a set up!

    When i was watching it my mum and dad were like

    "OMG what adifference!"

    But I never believed it for a sec, totally different voice, it was obviously a set up to make that an actually decent episode, cos without *that* performance, every other thing they showed sucked....

    + Sinon looked so chufted with himself, obv a set up, so obv he will win the show! -.-

  • this little boy is amazing, wow he is a really good singer for his age, he has a big voice for a little man

  • just shows that simon cowwell knows his stuff, this kid is phenominal, gave me goosebumps

  • i am 15 and my little sis whos 11 thinks he is so cute i think he looks aright but nothing to scream about but i have got to say he is a phonomenel singer

  • wow. unbelievable, well done!

  • This boy 'Shaheen Jafargholi' comes in a BBC childrens TV show called 'Grandpa in my pocket'.

  • I am a huge Michael Jackson fan no matter what anyone says I will support him to the grave. Upon hearing Shaheen sing a rendition of "Whose lovin' you" which Michael originally sanging in 1969 with the Jackson 5 was unbelivable, like Amanda Holden it gave me goosebumps and brought me to tears. I wish this little guy all the best for the competition and his future at only 12 yrs old he has everything it takes to make it to the big time.

    I also wish Susan the very best of luck.

  • click on 1:05 simon your so rude!!

    lol i love simon :) funny man

    but i mean hes swearing at him!!

    lol

  • Rofl.

    Never noticed that, ha.

  • he has even gone thru puberty yet .just wait til hes voice change

  • wonderful talent. I hope he goes far!!

  • i really dnt get the hype about susan , i mean she was a shock and she was good, but this lil dude was so much betta

  • lol at hsm at the end :)

    but anywho that little dude has some pipes! that was great!

  • im still voting for susan!!!

  • He is very good, he is exceptional, but he is no Susan Boyle, that and he has his whole life ahead of him to make a difference. It is now Susan's time to shine and nothing will take away from that - 1,198 views compared to 28 million- says it all. I think the book has been written. We will see you later Mr. Jafargholi.

  • you are so right

    he is great buy this is year susan

  • Amazing. Two amazing voices on one show.

  • amazing voice...

  • Susan was awesome last week, but this guy shot to legendary status!! definately should win.

  • definately agree with you there!! 100%! i was shocked when i heard this boy sing in my opinion best young singer in the competition ever! such control over his voice already with vibrato, adlibs etc man this boy is one to watch out for in the years!!

  • this is amazing! susan boyle has competition

  • not quite. Susan Boyle is a sweet middle-aged lady who had a simple dream and got much more than she expected. I don't know if this little boy is nearly as humble. He's still cute, though. ^_^

  • what...humbl??? It's a kid man...do u expect him to be arrogant. All kids r inocent

  • rofl

  • He's pretty humble... I mean- he's not arrogant! Although you know he's singing for him and his mum. Something about Susan- although she is fantastic ,just feels off. I've listened to Shaheen literally 5 times and I listened to Susan twice. A good performance makes me want to listen again; a great one makes me want to listen to it again and again.

  • FREEAKKIN AMAZING- I had to stop myself crying when I saw this, THAT is how EPIC it was!

  • please...

  • it wasnt set up when my daughter auditioned they said bring more than one song incase they want more or anything lol

  • TO WIN HES AMAZINGGGGGGG!

    he would suite than brothers song.

    brother and sister.. whatever its called lol

    x

  • im a24 year old guy and this guy made mshed a tear......damn this is some good weed

  • he's amazing :)

  • looks like there will be a vocal battle in the finals :)

  • WOW *shaheen 2 win* !!

  • Yeah, I also got the set-up vibe.

    How did they have that Jackson track there ready and waiting.

    He just went straight into it, totally different. =P

  • Comment removed

  • SUSAN TO WIN

    copy and paste

  • yeah hes good but when he goes into puberty it becomes a different story, unless he castrates himself.

  • Great voice, but i'm suzan boyle still got my vote...

  • OMG AMAZING...

  • He's young, but this is everything that annoys me about pop music today....runs up and down the scale "just because", high and shrill delivery. Maybe when he matures, that talent will ripen into real singing.

  • Yup - I call it "twarbling" - it's Mariah Carey stuff - show off your vocal ability just because you can do it - not easy to listen to, though. If he can rein that in, he could be good.

  • If you had actually bothered to listen to the original song before running your 'kids today' tirade you would know that the cadences he uses are very similar to michael jacksons delivery. funnily enough he was about the same age when he sang it. There actually is no other way to sing the song (at least as far as I've heard)

  • i like the voice..

    very good

    *w*
