    Piers says it all.

    "It's called America's Got Talent....Not America's Got Strange People..."

  • We had Tuvan Throat singers come to my school and do a demonstration and i tried it and it was very hard to do. He is absolutely incredible. I wish the judges were not so closed minded about talent just being singing or dancing.

  • soriah..l like u..^_^

  • Comment removed

  • only in the usa...

  • remember 3:59 keep portland weird! XD

  • I was going to make a comment about Soriah and how awesome his Tuvan Throat singing was... and then I read that most other people agree with me. Good to know. I'm rather furious how close minded the judges on this show are. Annoying as anything.

  • I've sang with Soriah before; he has taught me throat singing and is deeply committed to the ancient Tuvan traditional style of singing.. he's gone and travelled there, and studied with many Tuvan masters, including Chirgilchin. The resonance in his voice is profound, and I've seen him perform before and he is mind blowing..

    However, I can't help but imagine that he would've made a better impact on the audience if he had worn a slightly more "stage appropriate" outfit.

  • I feel sorry for this program. They are so closed, racist and ignorant ... :(

  • This makes me so angry! They were so ignorant and disrespectful of an ancient style of singing! He was actually quite good at it; it's too bad I couldn't hear because of all the morons booing.

  • soriah aint that bad ;)

    i like his voice, but he should have said it a little bit more understandable for ignorant listeners.. something with advice for the over/undertones, i'd love sitting in his cab^^

    i'd drive with him to work evr'y morning ;)

    tho im 23, i like other cultures and its fuckin hard to learn, rly is. oO

    he should have sung the national anthem with the overtones, but yet stay on one single note, that would have worked...

  • No one really gets how hard people have to work to be that good at throat singing..

  • 4:27! She has such a cute dog!

  • This is so disturbing!!!! The judges and audience clearly show their racism and lack of respect for cultures they don't understand.

  • And then the amazing amy - it's not "weird". There's another skill that takes YEARS of training to perform. Funny, for all their ridicule, I'd like to see them do anything that pays an average of $1000 for 5-15 minutes of performance time. One of my best friends is a contortionist in Miami and she is making a KILLER living. That old lady has more TALENT than most of these pop stars around today.

  • This reeeeeeeally kind of ruffled my feathers and made all three judges look EXTREMELY ignorant in my eyes. No, you can't just do throat singing - it's an incredibly difficult skill, and can create an insanely ethereal atmosphere if people would just shut up and focus and listen openly. Sharon Kihara just finished an intensive in FL and the song I HAD to have for my morning yoga routine happened to be by Soriah. He's incredible.

  • sounds better than sunn o)))

  • i felt so sad for the flexible old lady :'(

  • i love portland moving back there asap

  • I believe the full title of this show is, "America's Got Talent, however, America is Afraid of What They Do Not Understand".

  • I was born in portland and yes it is very weird

  • Does anyone know if the Amazing Amy has a fan club? I would like to join.

  • KEEP PORTLAND WEIRD xD

  • Dieses Showformat ist viel zu engstirnig um die Art der Musik eines Ausnahmekünstlers wie Soriah zu verstehen. Ich begreife nicht was er erwartet hatte als er dort auftrat, außer dass der Pöbel über ihn herfallen würde. Ein Blick in die ganzen leeren Gesichter von Jury und Zuschauern sollte eigentlich gerade einem spirituellen Menschen genügen um sich in solchen Shows der Masse nicht zum Fraß vorzuwerfen.

  • The throat singing was kinda cool to hear, not really right for a talent show though.

  • Keep Portland Weird. I Love Portland♥

  • He ranks 3rd in the world in Tuvan throat singing.

  • Ooooh, dear. Making us Oregonians look bad one stoned AGT audition at a time. :[

  • i  love him!

  • uninformed about the thraot singing - takes a lot of skill to sing harmonics

    says a lot about the lowest common denominator

  • i'll interchange the two syllables of his name:

    "iah-sor" (eyesore)

  • AT 03:45 would would Bang that thing she is a Cutie I don't care she can't sing :D

  • Throat singing is actually pretty difficult. He did a great job

  • They do throath singing in the buddhism...and i like it a lot! But it´s not much to do on a talent show...

  • Comment removed

  • Throat singing actually requires a large amount of skill and professionalism

    .

  • Portland is so weird

  • i pull the lyrics out an unnamed place?

    unnamed place in oregon = ass

  • Seems like everyone is under educated fucks.

  • @assbitchfucky Unfortunately, that's true, but your name makes it look like you're one of them.

  • @TwistedWalruse Because yours promotes such intellectualism right? 

  • @assbitchfucky No, it's the simple fact that you posted a comment about how they're all "under educated fucks."

  • what the bloody hell?

  • ROFL my video literally stopped loading right at 0:47 on howie's face, fucking hilarious!!!

  • I can't stand how the judges make up their mind about someone based on their outfit. Also, if someone doesn't have the typical "singing/dancing/musical instrument" talent it's harder for them to go far. It's America's Got TALENT, they should have unique talents be their priority.

  • This junk is straight up hard. I was a little thrown off by the outfit at first. But this dude rocked it! And Piers CAN NOT do it.

  • Naked guys=Yay

    Needles=Yay

    I don't see the problem here.

  • @Camelle1986 Agreed, but I could do without the naked guy.

    The fact that they booed Soriah makes me lose all respect for this show, its asshole judges, and its retarded audience. What a bunch of stupid apes.

  • @MachineManWolf Soriah had talent, this audience doesn't.

  • That first performer was a FLAWLESS, beautiful throat singer... Fuck this show.

  • Wow, judges are pathetic as usual on this show. I don't understand why they can appreciate a form of singing that is foreign to them. Can they please stop choosing mainly people who can sing (the ones who sing songs like that Bianca girl) to go on to the finals otherwise we might as well call this show American Idol Beta.

  • guys got damn good control of his voice...it may not sound incredible, but thats talented.

  • 1:07 BUFFALO SOUND!

  • 1:10. He sounds like a didgeoredo. That Australian thing

  • The audience is so unrespectful they should learn to shut up and listen...and if they don't like it don't boo and respect others....those people spend time and money just for the audition.... COMMON WHERE IS THE RESPECT FOR OTHERS??...seriously

  • fucking assholes, haters gonna hate

    stupid shit audience doesn't know shit

    they all should be shot, tuvan throat singing was great

  • we go the same name!! and i'm a girl T_T that's sad!! 

  • This show should be called America's got a Brainless idiots

  • @leon6266 Why actually good sir, I think you will find that you mean America Has Brainless Idiots! You see, saying 'a' implies 1, however you then proceeded to say Brainless Idiots, with an s at the end of idiot. Do suckle on a large cock good sir.

  • @leon6266 learn to spell you meant to say America's Got Brainless Idiots

  • @leon6266 do you go on every video and post insults? lol Didn't you get owned by some dude in another one? i see your getting owned again Fatters? lololol i can't believe you thought that was a word lol!!

  • the tips were for him to get cured

  • personally i adore tuvan throat singing so id love to see this man perform more id pay to watch him =]

  • Ok....When he said Swallowing drill sharp needles, I was done. 

  • i like the pink haired girls outfit ^_^

  • Soriah is actually pretty talented

    its just not recognized

  • thumbs up if you joined them at 1:45

  • that first guy sounds like my vaccumn. KEEP PORTLAN WEIRD HAHA loved it.

  • I neever knew RAIDEN can sound like a frog O.o

  • Pierce of all the people there hes the last person i would expect to label throat singing "Just groaning"

  • Did anyone else try to throat sing? x3

  • How ignorant, this is a very difficult mode of sing (throat singing) and it takes so much time to learn and not everybody can do it.

  • I give props to Soriah for putting himself out there and I think he was awesome, who cares what a few ignorant people say.

  • Comment removed

  • WTH! He should have made it! tht was actually very talented id lik to see them do it it takes a lot of skill to tht!

  • that amie woman was kinda good for her age and the way they disrespected her was really mean

  • The first guy was kinda cool. Sounded like a..what're they called..didgeridoo xD Or something...My fellow wow-nerds out there; It sounded like the music that plays when you run around the Darkspear Trolls area, no? :D And oh my god my mom is only a couple years younger than that Yoga-teacher and that hag (the yoga teacher of course) looks like she's about TEN years older than my mom! WTF!

  • America's got IGNORANCE

  • This was posted LAST YEAR ON MY BIRTHDAY SHIT!

  • I've lived in Portland for all of my 17 years. There are some weird people, yes, but for the most part you don't actually realize a person is weird until you speak to them and they mention that they can "pull the lyrics out of an unnamed place" when they sing.

  • god damn Mongolians trying to brake down my city wall!

  • That was so awesome, first audition, because... well the vibes... O.o

  • They Disrespected the throat singer. What a bunch of mindless disrespectful media puppets.

  • Dude, that is the most interesting sound I've ever heard a human being make. Too bad we're not cultured enough over here in the States to appreciate it.

  • It's a cultural singing.. Yet they boo it? Major disrespect.

  • mongolian throat singing .... awsome

  • @dawala1000 Takes talent man.

  • Soriah really can sing. and the lady that came after was nice too. I mean, she`s like 70. not many old ladies can do stuff like that.

  • Such a pity people can't be a bit more open-minded and recognise that talent comes in more forms than they're used to hearing and seeing.

  • the 1st guy was cool what he did but it just wasnt right for this show

  • I Wouldnt Get In His Cab!!

  • OMG that is sooo coool!!!! I dont want to do but wow awesome!

  • Why is pierce so mean? I mean does he really have the need to insult people on national television? Thats just cruel and he is just childish.

  • america has got but hole losers who won't let people perform and boo instantly at things they dont understand cuz all they know is mtv

  • anyone can do that, soriah...it's not talent! ASK ANYONE!

  • I know what this is it's throat singing! Sheldon did it on Big Bang Theory! lol

  • Half the people booing wouldn't even have the guts to do what those people do.

  • imagine u getting in a cab...then imagine the driver to start making that noises...

  • 1:09 wtf?

  • lol i don know why but i really like to watch the unsuccesful

  • what's the song in the background when they start the bad auditions

  • True artist meets disconnected humans ...

  • yeah that was brutal. this reflects poorly on america. its too bad that all anyone wants is generic crap.

  • Thanks for destroying my faith in humanity just a little bit more. Dude comes onto a show with a genuine talent, gets booed off because the audience and judges are such closed-minded cretins that they can't even comprehend it.

  • @chargermaniac

    LOL

    How's anger management going?

  • @NorwegianSportsGuy Don't blame Americans. Don't forget Piers is British. And as cool as throat singing might be, it is not a Vegas act.

  • @TrueBlade3754 I blamed the audience

  • @TrueBlade3754 None of this means that they should have been such giant dicks about it.

  • hahaha KEEP PORTLAND WEIRD and inm from oregon

    

  • i'll Never Get In The Cap With Him .. :P

  • Natasha must've been the high school whore.

  • Oh My Gosh! That's Sally Cohn the Hand Whistler's audition at 2:20!

  • Although portland is weird they have amazing doughnuts at VOODOO!!!!!

  • 2:07 background music is FAME by Lady GaGa :D :) ;) monster knows his mother

  • Comment removed

  • that was a long fart LOL

  • the second was very good

    the judges suck!!!

  • soriah's auditition was confusing

  • extremely uncultured, ignorant judges.

  • Comment removed

  • It might not be the latest craze.. but when people disrect other people's culture like that... wow thats wrong

  • ooo threesome in the closet!

  • i don't care how rare it is how old it is or how few people can do it, it sounds terrible

  • Dang, Amy, you are very talented, but it looks to wrong.

  • great job on the throat singing

  • It's a human ratharang.

  • That shit was cool.

  • Not bad LMAO

  • It reminds me of that australian insturment thingy :P

  • This show should be called America's got a disrespectful audience.

  • @JonMeyer5150 : oh totally agree.

  • @JonMeyer5150 Pretty sure the producers tell the audience to act like disrespectful idiots for television viewers.

  • @JonMeyer5150

    yeaa thats what im sayinng...some people have no respect.

    people come on there to preform what they like to doo...and people just crusshh it.

  • @JonMeyer5150 part and parcel of the gig bro. If they realy are serious about what they do, it won't matter what people say to them, they'll just keep on chuggin.

  • oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhohhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhohhhhhhhhhhhhhhoooooo­oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hh nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    ssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooo­ooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrriiiaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhh

  • Sharon Osbourn is HOT 

  • What is it taking a shower!?

  • Bet all U youtubers were trying to make deep throat noises while watching the vid.

  • I would love to chill with this guy, spark up a few bowls and throat sing!

  • wow they have no idea how hard that is to do. they have no idea what talent is.

  • Amazing how rude they were to the first guy.

  • Why no o.O

  • mongolian throat singing is amazing .

  • awwww poor dog is terrified :( the throat singing was really good! he probably had not chance of winning but should have at least gotten through the audition

  • get pwnd piers

  • look !its Avril lavign with pink hairs. NOT ! lol

  • its a nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooo lol piers

  • the last girl was pretty, until she start singing.

  • Is it just me or did Soriah sound like a didgeridoo?

  • What the hell

    These stupid american people don't know about culture and traditions cause they got no any cultural roots. They only can hear shit and eat shit too. Soriah isn't a Taxi Driver. he is an artist.

  • @dynosheep two of the judges anrt even american.

  • @rapperSkater but it's controled by american tv producers… anyway‚ "America Got Talent" isn't appropiate for show Tuvan Throat Singing.

  • This singing is popular in Mongolia and some parts of Russia. No wonder jury didn't know that.

  • This is a bunch of bull crap! I thought this was a TALENT show, not "skill you can aquire after a few weeks or months of training" show. Reminds me of elementary school where people just sang random crap or poorly played the violin. Granted, that woman with the pink hair was...well, not good. But the rest were darn impressive. I was appalled by the reaction to the throat singing. They really know nothing about it, do they? Typical reactions from typical people. I boo you, AGT!

  • he looks like the white ninja

  • Wow, not surprising response given the setting and people involved, but sad. While I don't think Soriah was at his best here, he might have gotten a better response with just a bit of patience.

    I've been throat-singing for a long, long time and have been three times to Tuva, and to Mongolia. And I've heard many, many wannabes from around the world. Fact is that Soriah is one of the few non-natives that really can throat-sing at a high level, and to be regarded as a good singer by Tuvans.

  • @Throatsinger

    totally...this guy can totally throat sing....he's just doing it for a bunch of people who love justin beiber. maybe if they knew anything of the world beyond walmart they'd at least respect his skill.

  • i kinda liked it, but not fit for the show

  • Well on the plus side, I'm sure he could get some gigs at yoga/meditation classes or something. All he needs to do his call himself Master Soriah and spin some crap about having been raised in a cave in Siberia and he'd get the desperate housewives type set totally eating it up.

  • He has talent to go up on that stage a dress like a snow man in front of millions of people. Who has guts to do that? lol

  • I think they rejected soriah because the act itself touched on supressed information.

    MTV bullshit is the plan, not benefitial frequencys, or maybe an understanding of what sound actually is...

  • millions of retards. millions of them.

  • HAHAHA He sounded just like a broken car!

  • That's great, who else can do that?

  • i think i kind a like Soriah, though i thought they used big pipes to do that sound back in Tibet

  • What song is this after soriah got buzzed by the judges?

  • love to throat sing, love soriah, can't wait for november 11 tucson.
