  • Reminds me of Ted Hawkins

  • man simon cowell shud sign em up

  • holy crap! this man sings with his soul!

  • NICE

  • I am really proud of that guy and feeling a lot of sympathy. That's how music used to be and how it should be, this guy somehow reminds me of Ray Charles. Living on streets is a big fight for a man, one of the few people still keeping it real. Big RESPECT from Finland.

  • wow

    

  • WOW!!!!

    

  • Can someone just make him famous, please! He's great Lol

  • He is soooooo good

  • the man sang the first two words and I just cried my eyes out, thank you who ever posted this

  • This is a talent. Not a model agency.

  • any man singing better than todays artists is not very rare because music sucks nowadays... Nonetheless this man is incredible...

  • jesus! i thought he was lip sinking......

  • ohh madre mia que bien canta el hombre, ya tienes una fan mas xDxD

  • @oskarjacobsson1 i'm 90% sure you only used that statistic because i used that statistic first. I dismissed it because there's a ridiculous amount of reverb on his voice considering he's outside, but then someone pointed out he could be in a subway station so fair play if he is

  • is this a sam cooke song

  • someone get him a job as a singer'' annduh jackazz he wasnt lip syncing

  • He sings With Soul I'll give that

  • As a Scot who moved to France to avoid the Poll Tax imposed on us by the English, it breaks my heart to see a homelesss person give meaning and life to songs that have made millionaires but were written by people who experienced these difficulties for a mere few days or months rather than years.

  • This man can sing oh my goodnes

  • I used to miss trains to watch this guy. so good

  • @modcraft13 if i were u, i would probably come early and still miss the train.. :)

  • @modcraft13 where is it?

  • @lampjaevel I used to see him in Union Square station waiting for the 6 uptown. I've seen him other stations but mostly there, or down waiting for the L back to Brooklyn but I've been out the city for 5 years so who knows now? he's great though.

  • Whats the song?

  • @1stNightingale Otis Redding - I've been loving you too long. The funny thing is Otis don't sound as good as Danny - man from this video

  • @robinhut79 Beautiful song but unfortunately he looks like hes lip syncing. Please get a video of him singing A Capella.

  • @1stNightingale - You're cruel man...Hahaha..

  • @tvraiderz I found one and its very good.

  • @1stNightingale he is not lip synching. Just knows how to pick where he sings....finds places with good natural echoes.

  • @k2stypoint I said i found a video where you can clearly hear his voice.

  • @robinhut79 :)

  • Aye funny how is voice is distorting along with the music and you can see him breathing out of time with the singing. Still, 10/10 for effort.

  • i want this guy to sing at my wedding how do i book em?

  • Am I the only person to notice that his poster is upside down?? 0_o

  • it is him singing he isn't lip synching it's just the echo from where he is..

  • this is a remarkable tallent that we need more of now days his name is danny small for those who didnt know look him up on youtube for more great songs

  • they are homeless and have no money so everyone pisses on them but alot of them can sing pretty damn good just never got the full ride like all the other rich assholes that are there now

  • i say this because i've never heard anyone that can sing in such a tone that sounds like they're playing through a '60's am pocket radio before.

  • to bad hes not recording an album though so ur ear is not fully trained yet

  • DAAAAAAAMN!!!!

  • is it really him singing?

  • i agree, he's lip-synching.

  • @jacklazzell Is what I say!

  • @jacklazzell how do you know?

  • @jacklazzell he has more vids on youtube his name is danny small he is not lip synching at all look it up yourself if you dont believe

  • @jacklazzell He's not. That's his real voice. He's been on TV, his live performance has been broadcasted in Europe as well. Don't be an ass. For people who grew up listening Justin bieber and auto tuned voices, you can't tell what is real and what is not.

  • @jacklazzell I live in NYC...I work for the MTA...Ive seen and talked to this man..its his voice.

  • The best people come from the street

  • @twentysevenfourth

    no he doesn't stop singing, he's fading his voice. man, are you all 13 years old or what? try not to be so smart. fucking 'tard.

  • Learned all that shit form master Brown ill bet. ^^

  • there was a documentary on tv bout this wonderful singer, and i couldn´t believe he has to sing in subways....and it´s his real voice.. he proofed it!

  • fuck the hyperlink.. >:(

  • This IS infact his actual voice. He is in a subway station. Do you people not hear the subway in the back? If any of you have been in a subway station you would know that the acoustics in them are amazing. It's like singing in a bathroom but 100 times better. Stop being so negative. Geez.

  • I think this is a lip synch.

  • dude, there cant be so much reverb on a voice recorded on the streets...

  • he's miming!

  • its recorded, its not his voice

  • @yesboss2000 thats his real voice... are you deaf?

  • @Nyugaboi ok i've seen other videos, it is his voice, sorry. but being deaf would mean i 'would believe' it's his real voice. "are you blind?" would be a valid retort

  • @yesboss2000 It's his real voice. He's famous as a subway singer and his performance has been on TV as well. People actually come to see him sing.

  • This truly defines soul. Magnificent.

  • what a wonderfull voice.....

  • amazing performance! love this song and love the way he sing it with all his soul!

    Art is everywhere!!

  • wow

  • have you noticed that all the people with good voices are homeless i mean come on give em a hand

  • @TRTlivealittle

    homeless?

  • @TRTlivealittle Just because a title says he's homeless doesn't mean he is. He isn't homeless, I believe.

  • @TRTlivealittle That's because it doesn't take singing ability to make it in this world, it takes publicity, Ex: rebecca black. Sadly enough.

  • amazing! it makes me cry. he seems like an amazing person with a wonderful voice and needs to get a recored deal. :')

  • Amazing raw emotional , talent this man is truley a gift to this world and I must agree with MrCuziMaking yes all that you have stated is true you also must be talented. The reason I wanna goto the NYC

  • how is this not an internet sensation?

  • This is Danny Small, he's not homeless.

    Search 'Mitchell Hughes aka. Danny Small' on Facebook.

  • he is truly amazing.

    

  • I wish I was homeless ...wait honestly tho this was awesome!

  • Is that Fred Sanford? =D

  • @memberoftubeyou There is reverb in his voice. He is lip syncing.

  • @andy3109 you ever heard of a thing called a echo? he is in a subway..

  • @andy3109

    oh, and you're an expert because you've recorded how many albums? haha, your self confidence is laughable. do you even know what reverb is? it is the computer's way of simulating multiple echoes. these echoes however, occur naturally. if you can't hear the difference, please don't comment. re-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e­-tard. (get that last one, genius?)

  • Unbelievable voice. I love this style of music its too bad no one plays this kind of music anymore. Real emotion and true feelings go into what makes this talent.

  • He has that glow about him. That makes you want to be around him. :l

  • @twentysevenfourth watch other videos of him then STFU

  • @twentysevenfourth so in the recording it says just happens to say "thank you miss" at 1:58 as soon as the lady gives him some money?!?!? i guess ur just so smart u saw past that didnt you...

  • fuckin playback...cool guy. but ... it seems like evereybdy here things its him singing life...are you deaf??

    this is music from a box with some background sounds..

    but BIGUP to this guy..he rocks!

  • Holy Fuck! That was awesome!

  • VEGAS ENTERTAINMENT 5 Stars!....fantastic, real, singer, a true talent~ You inspire all us men, around the world, never give up, keep on singin.

    VEGAS

  • damn he's good!

  • Wow! Amazing. This guy's got one hell of a voice!

  • Brilliant singer but a homeless guy with CD's an a NY cap ?!

  • WONDERFUL! What the fuck are doing Britney, Selena, Miley, Lady Gaga, Madonna, Justin & Co on the music stores' shelves? THEY should be in the streets begging and not this awsome voice. So very unfair. I do promise I will never ever listen to any of them again in my whole life for respect to all those wasted voices. I can only say one thing to this man: I AM TRULY SORRY! Big recuiting men from the music industry!!! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!?!?!?!

  • This is real talent!!

  • we need more people like this.

  • This breaks my heart will some 1 please help him? he has talent :'(

  • @1inuyashanarutolover I hate seeing people condemn the homeless. I believe no-one should have to live without a home, with no one to care about them. It's so, so sad it tears me apart.

  • @1inuyashanarutolover

    what brakes your heart? that he is singing?

    HE IS NOT HOMELESS PEOPLE, AND Y'ALL DON'T EVEN HAVE A REASON TO BELIEVE HE IS. HOME OWNERS CAN ALSO SING AT THE SUBWAY! YEAH, NO SHIT SHERLOCK!

  • wow man video gave me goose bumps , brother has soul great vocals im surprised Cee-lo hasn't picked him up .

  • Wow real talent.....

  • I like him so very much... amazingly full of soul.. God bless you old man..

  • The problem is no one likes soul music any more. Cee-lo Green is tryin to bring it back, Amy Winehouse tried to bring it back. Its the best kind of music, so much feeling. Brings a tear to my eye and a chill to my heart. Instead, people want overproduces 4 to the floor club knockoff with autotune. Its sad

  • @scottasin not true. ever listened to mayer hawthorne, aloe green, raphael saadiq, john legend, lee fields or even adele? these are all modern soul artists. What about kanye west? i know he's a hip hop artist but he's sampled otis redding and curtis mayfield and more of the greats. sure some people like to listen to techno music and whatevs but theres a HUGE movement out there for all types of music including soul, you just need to open your eyes a bit more.

  • @erinl400 We all know there is great music out. You just have to dig a bit more for it. Have a look at the charts (money making music aka mainstream) it has not much to do with mayer hawthorne and co.

    I agree 100% good music out and real but not on the charts ...

  • I have that same discman thing. lol. He's badass!

  • Fucking onions..

  • Flawless, absolutely flawless. O.V. Wright would be proud.

  • 50 cent up in the 80's, 80 cent :))

  • .. i can't even. oh my.

  • Anyone know how i can get one of his cd's? thanks

  • instead of taking justin bieber they should have taken this talented old gentlemen right there !!

  • pls somebody say hi to him, from me

  • love it!

  • fuck xfactor get the real talent from the streets!! simples

  • SOUL BABY !!! THIS IS MUSIC FOR THE SOUL GIVE THIS MAN A RECORD DEAL NOW ! GODDAMMIT !!! SPREAD THIS VIDEO AROUND A SHIT THIS NEEDS TO COME OUT OF MY RADIO IN THE MORNING! DO IT

  • hey UpdatedEntertainment, why did you take my top comment down? its better than the ones that are up there right now....

  • blues is nothing else but a good man feeling bad.. he make me shiver!

    

  • this man is a legend <3

    

  • I am sure the hat is a gift from a young guy!

  • Such an honest voice.

    It's almost a crime that this man doesn't get noticed.

  • Continuing my last thought, rappers might talk all about sex and money, but that's what many greek poets did too. They actually have talent, but nobody takes the time to determine what they are actually saying.

  • Oh my god, please stop acting so dramatically mature. Anyways, this guy is good, but what makes big hits are lyrics. Lyrics are much more important than music in modern rap, and while bridges are repetitive, rappers are like geniuses (rapiq.com please).

  • 32 people are famous rappers.

  • i really hope he makes it big

  • this guy is good

    

  • What a paradox we live in. Where trash is all over the radio and the true artists are in the streets. Its supposed to be the other way around.

    God bless Danny!!

  • i dont get it. is he sell cd's or is he lipsinging?

  • @themr1down go here /watch?v=AT5DNQEhRcI&feature=r­elated

  • @NicoNikoND o shit! this man can sing i though that was a cd playing!!

  • @metafis It made me cry aswell. This man deserves better *sigh*.

  • Made me cry a bit. Such passion and emotion. The definition of soul.

  • wheres his record deal?

  • Great soul I'd hire him to sing on one of my YouTube videos. Check it out. : )

  • I don't care where he lives his voice is Soulful!!!

  • more people need to sound like this amen

  • It's sad how many great musicians are homeless. The reason they don't get the attention they should is because the worlds taste in music is going down the drain. The world promotes songs that have no meaning or are vulgar and offensive. The only reason we don't find it offensive is because we've been exposed to it for so long is because we have tolerated it and now have accepted it into our society.

  • No, America's taste in music is going down, alongside Canada, Australia and Britain. This is a natural result when personality, visuals and singing are valued more than the instrumental music contemporary culture was built upon. It's also the reason why completely untalented artists with marketable faces and looks get the big shiny contracts so idiot tweens and 20 somethings can have an wholly un-deserving idol to look up to and dream about fucking.

  • @MrCuzIMAking I'm a musician and cause I spent most my life concentrating on lat, then messed my leg up irreparably while DRUNK,my fault. But I'm headed to the streets for sure.I just hope one thing, I'll always have a guitar.

  • @MrCuzIMAking You said it man, BULLSEYE I hope that todays music shhould evolve to something meaningful again, there are good musicians out there, The industry is fucked up it promotes bullshit socalled artists that need fucking electroaid to sound half ok, Hopefully some day soon we can sit and laugh at the bullshit that we are forced to listen to today. Greetings from Sweden

  • @MrCuzIMAking most songs i hear are out sex, drugs, drinking, and lots more nasty stuff, i never noticed it but ur right

  • @MrCuzIMAking We all get weepy over all of the homeless that can sing or play a instrument, what about the ones that are doctor from other countries or the ones that used to be teachers or have a trade ticket like tool and mold of welding? Just tossing it out there'

  • think for a second.. ppl wouldnt give him money if he wasnt singing for real.. and i know in subway station the echoes makes it osund soo amazing.. its real trust me.. hes more real than most artists of today .. so yeah he owns

  • @sortirizz im pretty sure he is, but its the eco from the subway that makes it sound recorded

  • :D:D:D Hes not even singing

  • @Sotirizz haters. period.

  • @Sotirizz

    oh, really? you're sure you're not being retarded now? think hard, it will come to you.

  • Dis regard my last comment

  • This is a cd ....it has way too much reverb for the human voice

  • @elijahrichard he's singing in a subway tunnel, hence the reverb. there are plenty of vids of him on here as "danny small" he's the real deal.

  • @elijahrichard

    well, the human voice has zero reverb. your statement obviously shows you know nothing about reverb, echoes or the human voice. retard.

  • is this fake, sounds like a cd

  • man that s what that is real soul !!

  • It isn't lipsincing :P Tbh I thought it was at first so watched some other vids of him singing - he talks through the middle and the end of the song in one video and it is definitely his voice! Also notice at 2:01 he stops singing to thank the Lady. This is him alright! Amazing gift :D

  • thumbs up if you think this guy is not actualy singing sounds more like a it was done in a studio hence the echoo

  • @pipeload Yes yes yes! Definately not just singing that.

  • @pipeload

    can't you all just stop trying to be so smart? what do you know about echoes or reverb? is it only created in the studio? you fucking retard, echoes and reverb occured in nature long before studio equipment was invented. thing is, we just simulate it now instead of going to a church or a big hallway to record.
