  • This is by far the best version of the song....

  • Topic beautiful and brilliant interpretation. It can not be otherwise is Michael Grimm !!!

  • Grimm, I would love to buy this song in acoustic.

  • Michael honors the song. keep it up. Look to hearing more.

  • just wow

  • great michel..i love you

  • ♪♪ He truly is amazing! Can't wait till his new Epic Rcds cd: 'MICHAEL GRIMM' is out on May 17th!! I'll probably buy 2 copies, cuz I know I'm gonna wear the 1st one out! Michael said this was the most proud he'd ever been making 'his' kind of music w/the best producer & musicians in this big studio! That must have felt amaaazing!! ♪♪

  • Lol its ridiculous you posted this WELL before Americas got talent :) Just goes to show that true talent cant go un-noticed. Anyone who had seen this before AGT woulda seen that he would be a star... oh and that the industry sucks for not having picked him up earlier.

  • such a great voice

  • Many people have done this great song but Eddy Arnold wrote it and performed it first,Elvis even did it in a movie,michael bolton does it too but grimm has a great voice and version.

  • His voice must be the voice of the heart. It would explain I feel moved from the inside.

  • kinda bring tears to your eyes...don't it just hurt so good,,,,actually Patti Page had a hit with it in the 50s, so did Ray....a great tune that will be sung by good singers forever, and enjoyed by millions more

  • kinda bring tears to your eyes...don't it just hurt so good

  • Iam from Germany and i never heard a voice like this. absolute amazing. very great talent 

  • what a pure God's given talent.... he have an amazing voice...

  • Whew! I love his singing...

  • Thanks for the history, I was trying to find out who did the original and what year. I cannot see the date for Ray Charles anywhere.

  • @Lutonloy

    I think it was 1955 if I'm not mistaken. I might be mistaken though, lol.

  • @Lutonloy The original was done by Eddy Arnold who also co-wrote it with Cindy Walker in 1955.

  • Ray is the BEST!!!

  • @doctorortizlandazuri

    Grimm is up there with him

  • @doctorortizlandazuri untilmichael grimm got there so you know where ray is at now ----below michael grimm

  • @krackersolelady I don't share your opinion though I respect it.

  • Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but name calling & RUDE people will be blocked!

    Thank you for understanding...

  • OOPS! Should have reseached a bit! Thanks for the info... :-)

  • Ray Charles was the original, but Michael is damn good! ;-D

  • @babe1941 in fact the original is "Eddy Arnold" this is a 1955 song originally but i can see why u thought it was ray cause this song has been covered literally dozens of times through many different genres and many great musicians including mickey gilly and michael bolton

    this guy more than gives it justice

  • @babe1941 Ray Charles was not the original....Eddy Arnold wrote and sang the song first

  • @babe1941 Michael is damn good... and Ray Charles was also... but the original was actually a country singer... Eddy Arnold. He sang it first... and also co wrote it. Right now I think I like Michael's version best... but how can you not pick Ray Charles...

  • @babe1941

    Ray Charles was great, but he was not the original. Eddy Arnold wrote the song and was the first to sing it.

  • Hes awesome but Ray Charles does it best

  • @jrhSTYLE

    lol idk, Grimm's voice is right up there with him, but either way they're both fantastic. It's hard to compete with a legend.

  • @Rndy09 yeah he is pretty good

  • tha best talent from agt by far hes on his way to tha top and a very humble guy cant wait to get his cd when it comes out

  • i like

  • Congratulations Michael! You made it to the top though with your voice you already made it. I'm so glad he won AGT!!!

  • FINALLY, we get to listen to some REAL MUSIC in today's time! Michael Grimm - you are a SAVIOR of music!

  • I wish I was young enough to get to know this guy on an intimate level because I'd just fall madly in love with him and his soulful voice. He has such a smooth loving warm and humble look about him. Makes me feel like I need to protect him from the world of mean and cruel females. I just adore him.

  • @karsonhunna

    I feel the same. Well, for us older, we can listen to him and look at the guy we have, maybe?

I like you better and like looking at your beautiful brown eyes and cute smile. I am a great-grandmother too and so I know how proud your family must be. I really want you to win!!!!

He is my favorite modern singer because of his voice, his style of singing, and he keeps real music alive. Not rap. & this is my short tribute to him. Check my channel, I will post a song by myself that he sung.
  • What stupid talent agent passed this guy by? Can you believe the talent here that we wouldn't know existed if not for AGT? Whats not to love a lot?

  • I THINK I'M IN LOVE WITH HIM AND I'M 59 YRS OLD. I could listen to him all day and night.

  • WHEN ARE YOU COMING TO NEW ZEALAND MICHAEL? AMAZING VOICE....SUCH A HUMBLE GUY......

  • I would love to sing with him any time!

  • i could sit and listen to Michael sing all night long!!!

  • i am you fan now Michael !!!!!!!!!!

  • @Bitzcinema - Michael has been playing small lounges in Vegas and surrounding areas trying to get discovered. AGT is a perfect way to get your talent to the world. Many of the acts on AGT already have local gigs, just looking for a break to the big time.

  • @babe1941 Yep!!! Im from Australia...discovered him on youtube and now am off to buy his music. It sux he hasnt got any gigs in Vegas right now cuz im in Vegas on holidays...

  • Wait, he was already in Vegas? What the hell is he doing on AGT?

  • @BitzCinema Many of the acts on AGT are working professionals, but are unknown to most of us. Just to name a few, Antonio, Murray, Alice Ridley, Future Funk, Haspop, Prince Poppycock, and others. AGT actually scouts out some of these acts for the show. Even Terry Fator was a pro before AGT. Check out the vid "Michael Grimm 3". It was taken last weekend and shows the kind of venue he usually plays for. Just playing in Vegas does not mean he's made it.

  • @sorter30 I didn't say he made it.

  • When are you coming to Canada Michael, cause I want front row tickets. Amazing voice, and I love it when you sing with your eyes closed! Joanne in Toronto :)

  • Feels good to be the 200 person liking this video

    Im from England but im watching this years season on Youtube

    To see him win, because at the moment we've got the season were Kevin Skinner is going to win.

  • *sighs* Such a dreamy voice! I could listen to this man sing allllllllll day and night til I fell asleep! :)

  • out of this worl ..brilliant . a fan from england

  • Wonderful!! I can't stop listening

  • that boy could blow!!!!!

  • I'm a fan.

  • WHAT A GIFT FROM GOD.HAVN'T HEARD A VOICE LIKE THIS IN SOME TIME. WISH YOU THE VERY BEST.DON'T LOOSE SIGHT OF WHERE YOU CAME FROM AND GOD AND YOU WILL SURELY GET YOUR JUST REWARDS.

  • @barryb2008 he has sung unchained melody on youtube here. And he kills it! My favorite. Have you found it yet?

  • More soul than Michael Bolton......Even if he does not win AGT. I am sure his salary when playing in Vegas will go up Ten Fold ! Definitely will become a headliner.

    He is an awesome singer ! I would love to hear him sing Unchained Melody !

  • I've actually never heard of this guy before, and this is my favourite song, but Wow he did a fantastic job! As some others here have mentioned, very much like Michael Bolton; Very soulful, the type of voice that sucks you into the lyrics!

  • This man has a great purpose in our world. I want to see more of what it will be. This bunch all works so well with him. I love this so much I can hardly believe this talent in this generation...

  • What an amazing band and of course Michael the soulful white boy! The new Michael Mac donald. Hope you win !

  • I love this man. hes just brilliant.

  • Micheal you ROCK! I would love to hear him sing stevie ray vaugh songs.  I just cant get enough of him he is AWESOME.

  • God I could listen to him for days.

  • Wow, if this doesn't touch your heart, then you don't have one!!

  • I love his voice! If he got voted off in Vegas for going over the time limit I was so not going to watch the show anymore, but even if he doesn't win AGTI still think he's going to be a major star.

  • dude, micheal, you need to come to washington state to tulalip casino. I would love to see your show! bring some of that soul to the NW!

  • He is so good :] Definitely cheering for him on America's Got Talent!

  • @Anya017 aw man hes fair good, will be cheering him on in Ireland!

  • Michael has some real talent that we don't see now days in the world of music. He has such a soulful voice and he really captures the audience with his emotion when he sings. When someone has something to relate to a song, it's unreal how well they can do as an artist! I'm confident he will make it far in AGT. He has a fantastic voice and great presence on stage!

  • pleaseeee vote for him(:

  • this is 1 very talented guy. he is from waveland mississippi. i live in bay saint louis mississippi. same county wish i could have gotten the chance to see him here

  • He kinda reminds me of a very young Michael Bolton... This guy is amazing!

  • love love michael grimm.hope he wins agt .

    a big fan from india

  • He looks better in a fedora :)

  • @maddoggix1025 But remember how freaking hot he was at the audition when Sharon asked him to take his hat off??? He just needs a good cut, style and product. The lighting in this vid is crap, too.

  • I could listen to Micheal everynight before going to bed...he's got such a beautiful voice and soothing. GREAT job Michael!!!

  • Simply AMAZING!

  • He kinda reminds me of Micheal Bolton his voice just abit.

  • That keyboard player is Jamie Hosmer. There are actually two keyboard players, the other is Dave Richardson.The band is called Santa Fe & The Fat City Horns. They play regularly in Vegas. Right now they are at the Palms on Monday nights.

  • is it just me or that guy playing the keyboard is really cute?

  • WOHO!!!!!! :d HE ROCKS!!!

  • WOW! I can't believe you have fans from as far as Asia Michael!

    That's awesome!

  • Thank you so much, babe1941, for posting this longer version of Michael Grimm singing Ray Charles' You Don't Know Me. When he sang this on AGT, I nearly lost my mind. Where has this kid been? I would've gone straight to iTunes and downloaded it if it had been available. And that 90 second snippet just left me wanting more. Get ready America. Here comes Michael Grimm!

  • from asia, bunch of fans here....we love him.... he soooo talented, not only in singing but also in captivating your attention and heart, young-old-female-male and the third too. he is a big wow

  • He is so amazing and has a beautiful talent! Mega Crush on him right now! I can't wait to see him on the live show. Wooo!

  • Congratulations to Michael for making it to Hollywood! YEAH!!!

  • @babe1941 he is truly amazing
