Actually there are alot of comments that this is fake. Possibly but I don't think so. There are lots of really small churches who are very sweet and humble. Perhaps he is for real. I will say this though, that he is totally unaware that he is totally off key. If you listen closely at the end, you will hear that his voice may have some hope :) But also, the Pianist has NO EAR whatsoever and should not be playing a Piano!!!
Far be it from me to criticize anyone's singing, since I certainly can't sing a note. But...I have to say that if I was that pianist...I'd reach for that phone on the wall there and pray that it was a direct hotline to God! I'd pick it up and pray for immediate deliverance!
this is so mean!!!!!!!! why would you put this on here :( And why would it be humiliating for all the church goers?! LOL we go to church for Jesus ;) no one but Jesus. most of us at least. cause not all christians are the same. despite what you may think.
@MirkoTheDragonMaia lol......... ummm....... that awkward moment when someone you don't know tells you to shut up... and you weren't even talking lol. nice try. God bless you.
I am personal friends with Brian Free & Assurance & I officially feel sorry for them. This guy RUINED their song. But, I am glad that he is singing for God though. But, wow.. This was TERRIBLE! But, HILARIOUS :D
I say it's the pianist's fault. In a little defense of the singer, it's obvious the pianist never practiced this with the singer, and he or she should have. The introduction caught the singer off guard, so he didn't begin the song well. Also, it appears the soloist wanted to modulate up by half steps after each refrain, but the pianist modulated up by whole steps, catching the singer off guard again, quickly pushing the song out of range, and therefore over the cliff. It's the pianist's fault.
@chrisring123 It's nice of you to give this man defense but he would have been off key in all scenarios. He doesn't know how to sing and should not in any way compare or even mention that he wore out Brian Free.
@jamesbulldogmiller it's not fake. they are clappping because he had to the guts to go up there and a sing. I bet you couldn't do that.. nope you couldn't. if you had half of his courage you would not sit at your comp and bash others to feel better about yourself. RUDE!!!
PLZ TELL ME THIS IS A JOKE & HE DOESN'T REALLY SING IN ANY CHOIR... LET ALONE IN HIS SHOWER... HOW CAN ANYONE KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE FROM LAUGHING..LOLOLOLOLOL & WHY AREN'T THEY BOOING HIM OFF???? HELLO?? IS ANYONE HONEST THERE IN CHURCH???
I'd love to see this guy try out for American Idol. And sing THIS song. LMAO! I was scared when he went up an octave and then he WENT UP TWO MORE!! The pianist was trying their best to rush through the song. lol
Every time this clown thanks God for his talent, You know God is looking down going "oh no , no way, don't be thanking me for this....I will not take credit for this? STOP THANKING ME!
This is the first time I have ever thought I would call on Simon to say it as it is. This is a time where someone needs to address, who sings and who does not. Rebuke a wise man and will become wiser still...or not!
I thought this was hilarious! It was funny in the beginning when he started late!!!!!!!;) at least he tried. I don't know how this song could possibly make you famous!!!;))))
One of my cats was asleep on my lap and moved her head in a startled way at the beginning of each sentence. Halfway through the song she ran off. Another cat is running around the living room screaming, I wouldn't be surprised if she were to lose control of her bladder any second now...
@vessela84 nothing wrong with jimi hendrix but funny you say "once again Americans win at grammar" yet just an American song to do a cover...just don't get why you put down ALL Americans because of one person... but hey it’s the interweb you are invincible here....
@creatine64 oh yeah? therefore your inferiority complex? that why you disliked my video? look I'm sorry this guy sucks at life, he's on the internet so he's fair game to criticism. You on the other hand, are just childish.......
he is the best singer ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is fake and if you dont see, heres why
Most churches dont just let anyone sing, you have to be at least half decent and watched prior
Theres no one in the background, and from the camera shot theres only 6 people in the pews (not that hard to gather 6 friends for a hoax video)
The applause clips are obviously from a sound editing program, no one screams and whistles in this type of church
He giggles at the end, drinks water mid verse and yells "thats all im doing". Not church like behavior.
