GiR2007 is NextUp!

[scubbiesrules]

Hey GiR, are you a football man? If so, do you support Aberdeen?

[CheekySensei]

DUDE, I'm exactly like that! Ever since I was a kid I'd always try to figure out how they made a scene in a movie or TV show and such!

[chrisbn7]

I've been with you from the start, and please don't feel embarrased by "addicted to YouTube". It's a classic piece of YouTube history, and something you should be proud of. Just like your damn fluffy sheep :)

[Showgirly]

Congrats! I've been watching your clips since the 1st one :) Love your stuff, that list of song titles when you were a kid cracked me up LOL. Looking forward to what you have in store for us :)

[TheCARCOON11]

[anidiotcalledgregg]

Congrats on Winning. I love the pancake video, literally blowed my mind..I made one a bit ago and it was nothing compared to that.

[wambo567]

Congratulations, you are extremely talented and definitely deserve it! :D

[chrismastere]

Awesome

[LesIsMoreFilms]

i really really love your channel and your music! So this is a very very goood day for me :')

[carman24007]

YES, ever since I saw your first nextup vid, I was hoping that you would win because you friggen deserve it, and I'm really happy that you won! Congratz dude and I'm looking forward to the vids :)

[anmoose]

Congrats on the win! It's a big step, and just the kick in the butt you need to get you rolling again.

The story of the beginnings took me back. The YouTube home page when it was an exciting place to start your session that day, and when "Broadcast Yourself" was still part of the logo. And real people got featured, people with talent, not Vevo and Shane Dawson.

Ah well. It is what it is now, and it's still a platform, and I much look forward to your picking up where you left off.

[ElenaFanelli]

the only thing to say is YEIIIIIIII!!! ONE VIDEO A WEEK? Oh I can't wait...I have a lot of sweet memories linked with pancake video....good work Gir and a very big hug from Italy

[YOZcreative]

You Are SuperDuper Epic! Congrats :-) See ya at the gathering in London next week :P

[OminousLee]

Finally a decent 'nextup'

[Bigassgirl1997]

Theres nothing wrong with an Irish accent :/ And everybody thinks your Irish Cause you dont sound English/Scottish/Welsh :) 

[littledicemonster]

I didn´t know you until now! You make nice videos. Thanks Next Up for bringing me to gir2007! Subscribed.

[gavmcguinness8024]

Hahah I'm from Dublin, Ireland. I know an Irish accent when I hear one! :P

[Jimmy171194]

Im from ireland, you dont sound irish, you sound scottish

[GiR2007]

Why does everybody think I am Irish? :P

[Rogmeister999]

@GiR2007 You have a Scottish accent, but it's not a stereotypical Glaswegian accent. So people who don't know that there are different Scottish accents default to Irish.

[ZealDaan]

@GiR2007 I thought you were Scottish...

[Plunkie]

@GiR2007 well where in the UK do ya be from? lol ya do sound irish i must say, and I'M irish!

anyways congratulations, keep up the awesomeness :) x

[firefightermeath]

@GiR2007 because you speak so eloquently, just like all us Irish .. great uploads well done

[rebellatina14]

@GiR2007 Cuz you don't have a thick Scottish accent. :/ I still admire you!

[scubbiesrules]

@rebellatina14 Thick? GiR's accent isn't thick at all! There are much thicker Aberdonian accents. =P

[GoNinty]

@GiR2007 The weird thing is, I'm Irish, and evryone thinks I'm Scottish xD

[crumbsinhisjacketses]

Ah, I love you man! You really sound Irish though, what's up with that?

[GiR2007]

@crumbsinhisjacketses Irish? what the heck? :D

[crumbsinhisjacketses]

@GiR2007 And I'm from Ireland, I know an Irish accent when I hear one!

[ElGuitaristo79]

If not you, who else? Congratulations, well deserved! :-)

[GiR2007]

@ElGuitaristo79 Thanks, Mr guitar dude :]

[SchussFilms]

:D Can't wait for the new videos!

[OhYouSaggerson]

Congratulations! :D

[bhftw1]

I think describing Aberdeen as a small town in Scotland is misleading, seeing as it's the 3rd largest!

Unless you grew up in Stonehaven, then I feel for you man.

[jakrushman]

how on earth did you win. no offence but you only got 3000 views on your next up video whereas people who didn't win got over 10,000 views in their videos

[GiR2007]

@jakrushman It's not about the number of views you get. It's a talent competition

[jakrushman]

@GiR2007 yeah but i would have thought more views more votes

[GiR2007]

@jakrushman no. 10,000 people could watch a video, hate it and none of them could vote - that doesn't mean anything

[jakrushman]

@GiR2007 i suppose i mean i'm not trying to hate on you or anything and congrats on winning, but omfgitsjackanddean were getting a lot of support but didn't win which came as a surprise to a lot of people

[pablofortinero91]

you are awesome gir, greetings from Argentina. great videos, they introduced me into youtube some years ago heheh .

[saxman112]

Congrats dude! I voted only one time, but it seems like everyone else pitched in too. For all this hard work you've done on YouTube and in your everyday life, you deserve it. I can't wait to see the work you'll be able to do now.

[firefightermeath]

what an amazing story, truly inspiring.

I believe every young person who uses the mantra I'm "Bored", should be made watch this, maybe then it might awake the dormant talent that exists in so many of them. Well done, and here is my thumbs up to the next stage in your life.

[Carol070]

Congratulations Gir!!!! I´m happy for you. I voted many times for you to win, you are awesome!

[claytorpedo]

Huzzah for you! I just hope that your creativity can handle the load YouTube now demands of it. ^^;;;

Thinking of and then making one video a week is a pretty huge demand.

[jamin3d]

congrats!!! i voted for you several times.

[kirbyisadog]

GIVE ME SOME MONEY

[GiR2007]

@kirbyisadog excuse me...?

[kirbyisadog]

@GiR2007 lol. i'm just joking :)

[SchussFilms]

@kirbyisadog OH MY GOSH KIRBY LOLLLL

[HasAHugePianist]

You sound very Irish to me for some reason, but I can hear a hint of a Scottish accent :P Can someone explain? xP

[GiR2007]

@HasAHugePianist I have never been to ireland :0

[pepperpathmartin02]

@HasAHugePianist cos he is from scotland then he move to united kingdom

[Drag0nfoxx]

@pepperpathmartin02 Scotland is part of the UK >_>

[HasAHugePianist]

@pepperpathmartin02 But he sounds irish? I don't get it :S

[amiak18]

OMG at 1:30 - I have an SL-880 pro too!!! How cool is that??? :D

[GiR2007]

@amiak18 I don't have it anymore :)

[amiak18]

Why? You needed more space or got an another/better one? Did you have problems with it? Because the powering is a real beetch, sometimes I have to reset the keyboard to get it work again. :\ But I love it because of the weighted keys. Nice toy but heavy, it's at least half of my weight, haha. :)

Congratulations by the way, I can't wait to see & hear your new work! :)

[GiR2007]

@amiak18 Yeah it went wrong and wouldn't turn on properly, and it was too big :)

[amiak18]

@GiR2007 That's my problem exactly... Thanks for your answer! :)
