  • forward* slash. :P

  • This guy is one of my most inspirational people I know. He's inspired me to teach myself to play guitar, so I can learn his songs. Once I saw him perform, I was in awe. All you guys that don't like him; you do NOT need to make rude comments to him and do NOT even compare him to Justin Bieber. Josiah is a true artist, he takes it to heart, and so do I.

  • Is this Justin Bieber lol>????

  • Love this kid.  I was able to talk to him at the Lestats show here in San Diego, such a personable young man.

  • Lol, I love how he ALWAYS says "My name is Josiah Leming and..." before EVERY song.

  • I love Josiah's stuff, and always have. But, I have to say, what is UP with his fake British accent that he goes into from time to time?

  • @kevinbailey1974 its not fake. It's just how he sings.

  • @XavierPWNED No, I'm talking about even in his interviews. He talks in a fake British accent from time to time, and it's kind of annoying.

  • @kevinbailey1974 his dad was Australian and thats where he got it.

  • @swimmy1000 Like I said, I love Josiah, but that's not even true. There's no reason to make things up about his dad (who is from Tennessee) being from Australia. What I think is that he just does it for no apparent reason, other than he thinks it's cool.

  • @kevinbailey1974 His mom is from Australia.

  • @thesadiemlady Okay, now you guys are just making crap up.

  • breaks my heart at 4:48

  • WTF you guys

    ??!

    you rather fucking bieber to this guy? omfg grow eyes and ears! this guys awesome!

  • i live in kingsport TN....and morristown is only an hour to an hour 1/2....actually my best friends dad is from morristown

  • Love Josiah as a lyricist, those lyrics take you back.

  • I was friends with him before he became famous, I talk to his little brother every weekend I live like 20 miles from his families house, but I haven't seen him for about 3 or 4 years, but I'm glad he finally made it.

  • i used to live in a town that was kind of redneck...and this video makes me miss the southern hospitality. they're so pleasant and nice. all 3 of them.

  • to run makes me cry i love it i wanna meet him if n-e one nos him comment on my page

  • I love how he shows so much emotion while he sings.

    Most have false expressions just to please the crowd; it's so raw here.

  • wow what i call a REAL ARTIST. GREATTT lyrics, songwriting, and singing. incredible

  • I love this song... and this is the first time I've heard it. LOL... It almost beats my other fave song... La La Land by Demi Lovato.

  • God I love this song.

  • they spelt his name wrong haha

  • whats with his accent? now its only in his singing, but when hes just speaking too? rofl

  • He is amazing. This is one of my favourite songs now!

  • I HAVE THAT EXACT GUITAR!

  • Tehehheheh

    i love this child! hes talented, i wish i could find a guy like tha!!! lol

  • ITS FATHER TIME

    NOT "FOR THE TIME"

    change that on the lyrics

  • Comment removed

  • father time,

    not for the time.

    listen to to run over and over and listen to that part, its father time, not for the time.

  • for those who think or say he needs work on his singing, i am not against any one's oninion fyi, but if u feel like it type in "angels undercover" that video shows his voice and confidence has gotten a lot better.

  • good singer but no the best singer

  • All you people that dont think he is a good singer..post your singing voice and lets comment on that...you people just need to learn to just keep your comments to yourself...SHUT UP for F**K sakes

  • lighten up goodtimeguy2nite. Isn't this a FORUM where people can freely express an opinion. Are your feelings getting hurt because you like this guy? Damn. In fact, you just now expressed your own opinion just now, is it only reserved for yourself. We do live in America, right? Or maybe you don't...if not, we have freedom to express in America in case you didn't know.

  • lol chill out yea nob head, its an opinion!

  • the hosts suck, they're so fake!

  • great lyrics.(:

  • Go find his "The Freshmen" cover and tell me he's still a bad singer.

  • tooo true! i kinda like the way its not all perfect and stuff but yea. not technically the best singer about but classy

  • too bad his guitar isn't more audible - they should've put a mic on it or something. and it sounds like it need some tuning.

    But, he is amazing as usual - love over and over, and also, body and mind.

  • Hes a great singer, he has something that alot of them dont EMOTION, and TALENT, we all need coaching sometimes, but he does not need it bad at all.

  • the tempo is weird

  • i wold ran to you

  • its amazing the way he said that wanna make his mom proud... he deserves everything...what he said about the guitar pick at the end?

  • he is freakin amazing!!!

  • he did just fine; his guitar needs work though.

  • josiah leming is like my new favorite acoustic singer :D

  • He sounds different... I have the original mini clip of him doing "to run" on my ipod, and it sounds way different... better, even. This seems...shaky? idk, I think I'm sticking to one I already have..

  • *he is performing live and everything

  • Thats MY new channle.

    He lives like 30mins FROM ME. :D

  • Thats a solid song. :) Beautiful!

  • ...5:45

  • Fantastic!

  • He's so cute, does he still lives in his car?

  • no i dont think so. probably he has much more money now with all these musics and tv programs. good for hime, cause he's adorable, isn't he?

  • he is a great guy and everything but he is not such a good singer...a thats a fact!!!!

  • "a fact"??  I believe one's talent is generally an opinion. He made it through several auditions on the t.v. program...so there are some who would dispute that "fact".

  • mhhh ok, there are people who are way better at singing, but now another fact:

    my best friend and i are pretty good singers too, we have been in a good choir for years and had singing lessons. and we were very impressed by him and i am not that easily impressed.

    of course he can do better and he will do better, he is young.

    i have enough examples of the changing of the voice and singing of singers, it's all about some technique and experience.

  • ouh i have to add, that in this video are some, let's say, contra-points...but ok... i am sure he will get better xD

  • I disagree with you TASKEsrb. I think he is a very talented singer, and songwriter. Have you ever heard any of his other music? He has enough songs to come out with a double album full of hit songs. And all this before the age of 19! Imagine what he can do in years to come!

  • ok, i agree he could use a lil more singing lessons..BUT he is undeniably talented, he is an amazing song writer, and a very good musician. I'm a vocal major, and I'm not being cocky..i could probably sing better then him, but from his stand point of being a musician he can easily be made into a great singer with just a little practice

    lastly, he IS fucking amazing..lol

  • He's so gorgeous :]

  • For most people, I think, his entire appeal is that he IS rough and raw with his vocals. Polishing his notes would strip him of that. I adore him as he is. :)

  • I like his voice but i htink he needs singing lessons for his falsetto so everythings smoother.

  • i sorta dont like how he wavers at the higher notes. but i guess thats what makes him unique.

  • oh goodness i was here for this..i filmed it too!

  • god he's just amazing. love that song

  • check my videosss.. i played this full song acousticly and instrumental

  • oh my god he's so great, seriosuly

  • he is so talented, it amazes me

  • Darn, i like this song but the guitar composition wasn't so good. Good vocals and much better on the piano.

  • can u hit those notes?

  • No, I said he can BARELY hit the notes. Although he is hitting them, it just seems a bit...weak? Like he's struggling. Maybe that's his style, iono. Talented songwriter for sure though.

  • yeah.

    but with mixing andstuff it'll all get buffered out.

  • I absolutely LOVE how he always introduces himself. <3

  • i love you man.. i don't know why....i just love you and your songs. toinkz!

  • aww hes so fuckin cute.

    i love him so damn much.

    i cant wait for his Cd.

    <33

  • ahhh sooo good!!!!

  • cool song.

  • u guys are just mad that u cant sing that good hes an great singer he should of made top 24 great voice

  • i love him i love him i love himmm!!!!

  • why are you idiots watching this video if you dont like him?

    yeah, think about that one.

  • so they can hate lol

  • people have no lives these days. haha

  • yeah geez calm down people i think he's good and its none of anyone's business whether or not he wants to sing with a fake accent.

  • can everyone calm the fuck down. its good music and if you don't want to listen to it or like it or are some kind of josiahater then get the fuck outta here.

  • Okay smart ass. first off Ray Charles became interested in pianos at three when he heard one playing at a local cafe, he didnt start playing until well after he became an orphan at 15. And i became interested in motorcycles at 5 i still dont fucking know how to ride one. Nice try atempting to burn me though. The only reason i said 14 year old girls is because i was steriotyping. My younger sister is 14 and her favorite artist is Hannah Montana. So if it makes you feel better i will retract my...

  • also he is an arogant ducebag "if i ever need to find water w/ a stick" seriously just be fucking gracious and not an immature tool and say thak you very much for the gift i apreciate it. nope instead he has to try and make a lame joke to widen his fourteen year old fan club.

  • dude music is music ok WTF are you saying that 14 year old people dont know about music hes good thats it ray charles started playing piano at 3 and youre telling me 14 year old people cant know about music WTF

  • What a shitty crowd.

  • what are you talking about?

  • I kinda see what you mean, but i still think hes kinda good

  • I mean i could have been a little less harsh but it pisses me off when people think he is amazing when he is a southern hick trying to make his voice sound british

  • If you would listen to his other songs you would know it isn't forced. That is his singing voice. He has a unique talent. His music is true artistry that can touch the hearts of many. He is a far cry from Hannah Montana. He is inspirational and young people would be better off admiring him than teenage pop stars. Also just for the record his fan base is NOT 14 year old girls. I am 23 and he was my favorite.

  • so true.

  • well everyone has their own preference. lots of ppl don't like him and lots do. just like every other artist.

  • he started off a little badly as he got a little farther into it, it got better.

    he was a little cocky about his singing aswell, but it was good.

  • This song rules

  • pretty good

  • great song BUT in a way is too confident. He trie to make to much ofhis voice but he is still good

  • this song is awesome, but i think its better on piano. hey josiah! i hope your mom gets well :) and good luck to you :D

  • i love this song.

    i like it better when he plays it on piano though, but its still amazing

    i really do hope josiah goes really far.

  • i love him!!

  • To Run

  • I love this song!

  • What show is this??

  • its live at five. the news thingy for knoxville tennesse. my hometown :)

  • Whats that song?

  • At 5:25 it looks like he forgot his lyrics for a second but great song anyways.

  • no, i think he either missed his breath the line before, or he needed to swallow, lol...

  • ehhhhh I didn't like the guitar, couldn't hear it at times and didn't sound the best, but I love the song and when your album comes out it'll be on my Ipod.

  • he got excellant vibratos!

  • omg yay he got intouched wit his family again so sad he lived in a car...did his mom die or is she cured or wat..sosad

  • Shes alive but her illness is terminal :(

  • oh...

  • let's just pray for his mom...

    : )

  • ommmggg i love this kid!

  • he's sooo cute.....Too bad he got kicked out of American Idol...

  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE HIM!

    iespecailly like when he goes up into the high note, like how he progresses (?) it's amazing <33 it stil gives me goosebumps :]

  • he is defiantly in his element with the piano

    gutar not so much

    or he was probaly really nervous

  • he looks relly emotional when he sings this song

  • im kinda glad he didnt make it into idol. 'coz right now he has his own record deal while the idol contestants are still fighting to win! JOSIAH YOU ROCK!!!

  • he always says his name before he sings just thought that was weird but he is great!

  • he always says his name and the name of the song...that is how you audition when you havent made it yet,it is perfesional

  • looks like he was about to cry near the end! oh my

  • yeah he does sound british!

  • Yeah, he's fantastic.

  • seems like a good kid

  • I LOVE YOU JOSIAH

  • haha he has a british singing voice

  • i personally like it better with the guitar, than with the piano. he's so talented. i was really mad when he didn't make it into the top 24 on idol.

  • that's two of the dingiest b*tches ever.

    josiah is a stud.

    i hear he is slamming one of the olsens...nice.

  • that is the weirdest post I've ever seen - funny though

  • such a better song when he sings with guitar

    so good

  • Amazing song!

  • 00:16...they spelled his name wrong:lemming...kinda funny

  • lol!

  • at the end when the sound cuts out he says: "I messed up" and something about his guitar pick....

  • omigosh I know! I was starting to think I was the only one who noticed!

  • i met him i met him i met him.

    hes absolutly amazing, and he lives in my stateeeeeee :))))

  • I'm so jaleous.

    lol.

    I want to hear him sing and play live. yess. AND MEET HIM TOO. hE'S SO FREAKING FASCINATING!

    =]

  • AHhhh.... he is so cool. His songs amaze me! Thumbs up!

  • josiah is awesome. but omg who's doing the interview. they even have notes... for such simple questions.

  • All the best, young man.

    I, too, am a big fan of Jeff Buckley. And like him, you write songs that stir the soul.

  • I love Josiah

  • i love this song by Josiah! To Run! wow its amazing. also, I LOVE YOU JOSIAH! I LOVE YOU MORE THAN ANY OF UR OTHER FANS!!!!! :) :) :)

  • that last part isnt true!!!! lol

  • how is it not?

    of course its true!lol

  • When he's singing he closes his eyes and looks so sad. He's Amazing!

  • Very respectable that Josiah is really shaping himself into a positive/mature direction with really special dreams in place. Everyone has a past, things they are not proud of, and I give him credit for wanting to rise above it into a better place. He not only can sing and write effectively, but also is a great musician. I'm glad he's weighing his options carefully and I hope (in the end) it gives him the right outcome for his artistic vision. Best wishes, Josiah, on your musical journey.

  • I love how no matter what he's doing he always starts with- "My name is Josiah Leming."

    As if we forgot. ;]

  • Hes kinda tiny, liek his guitar looks huge. hes a cutie!

  • he gets tired toward the end. poor baby

    josiah i lvoe you<3

  • he is the MAN

  • i luv him .he plays his guitar weird

  • although i prefer this song on the piano, this is still amazing. what a great song.
