[28anneliese]

[SARLAproductions]

i hate how, in the beginning, people were shaking their heads like carlos wasn't gonna do good

damn bitches judging a book by it's cover!

[superbambino24]

What ever happened to 6:05, Howie. Carlos was the best most humble singers in the competion that season and you kick him out in vegas for the red haired lady 

[80Chile]

Oh, he is amazing...I couldn't believe the great voice that came out of him! es tan menudito! Good on him, so humble as well!

[GgPuOrange]

He rocks !

[raditozh79]

[laurasdelc]

Dear friends:

This is about Carlos Aponte, about great voices, about a person who has been studying singing for 12 years with devotion. Music unifies our souls, let's unite!

I beg of you to stop insulting one another and just respect each other's opinion, or educate instead of being insulting.

Peace in the world begins when each one of us offers peace to our neighbor.

[Azazeal696]

@jinheex is there any part where there´s a chernobyl hand with 2 thumbs for your comment? 1 thumb wouldn't be enough...

[TwistedWalruse]

@jinheex They're the reason Britfags troll Americans.

[maddogritriver]

@jinheex Ruertoricans aren't considered citizens of America, we are american citizens. We are the last remaining colony in the world. An american colony..

[Kadda1234]

@jinheex Why? Europe is a country, too, and Hitler built the wall and All the afghans are turks. lol.

[jinheex]

@Kadda1234 Uh. Europe is a continent, not a country. Wtf.

[kiribiju]

@Kadda1234 Europe a country?????? really????? and France, German, Italy, Spain, UK, Sweden ... ? they are cities,aren't they?

[underthehoodfan11]

[Zasharie1988]

I feel proud to know he is from Puerto Rico just like me,Even if it sound bad a lot of people are racist against us you can tell on the beginning of the video laghing at him. May be thinking he was going to humiliatehim self and he actually humiliated them!!! So right on Carlos!!!

[apachemk4]

You got power on your voice! Saludos desde Santo Domingo!

[Bluesidian]

Awesome Voice Papa.  cantaste bien Papa , que dios te bendiga.

[xochitl31]

I watch this video and still weep when I remember that he was eliminated in the Vegas round. Why did he have to pick a bad song (for him) to sing in Vegas... WHYYYYYYY???????

[GoldenShiner1]

@xochitl31 I heard the judges picked the song for him to sing. I also heard they intentionally picked the song for him to sing so they can let him go. shady business. i was very disapointed when he was eliminated :(

[nycopaking]

He didn't make it to the finals because Howie was picking wierd crappy acts and Carlos was talked into singing a Frank Sinatra son?

[LordADNmusic]

Carrrrrrrrrrrrrlos de puerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrto rico!!! Caalos??? XDDD Caalos!!

[ssips720]

hes so quirky and cute.. i love it

[blacuraRL]

4:34 WOOWW :P

[MattyCritch97]

1:44 Of course ha HA

[BoyChevy15]

87 Justin Bieber fans don't like this video.

[relationshipst]

why he wasnt in final????

[GMAN1151001]

87 people dont like this video.

[cardude1992]

haha thats awesome!

[Stonegasm]

im in england so I onl just get america;s got talent and I saw his audition then checked the final and I thought he was Prince Poppycock who turned out to be some weirdo

[Rndy09]

@divaphoenix

I wasn't comparing Carlos to Michael, I was responding to the comment that bdavid81 said about how Prince Poppycock should have won and the fact that michael won meant that people didn't vote on talent.. =)) we both know Michael Grimm won off of pure talent... but if I did compare them, i would have to say you're right, because they're both 2 completely different talents (but incredible ones) that can't be compared.

[Obamanation154]

lol racist bitch at 2:32

[Drakozful]

I thought this show as only for americans -.^?

[vinaymohan666]

the way he says CARRRLOOOSS :P .....

[akaknocksville]

THOUGHT THIS WAS "AMERICA" GOT TALENT !!!

[unbeattable21]

@akaknocksville in a way puerto rico is part of america

[amno96]

@akaknocksville AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE "SMART" DUMBASS!!!! dude we portoricans are part of America LOOK IT UP!

[Kristyl1000]

The first guy is Fez from that 70s show

[huynhtien123]

i study english and i listen to him, but the way he speaks english is very strange. anyone knows why? please let me know

[gonaleve]

Whats the name of the song?Thanks in advance.

[ikeepitbr00tal]

@gonaleve  il mare calmo della sera -andrea bocelli

[gonaleve]

@ikeepitbr00tal Thankyou ever so much.

[textaholic1chick1]

for sure he would of gotten in if they werent so racist with latinos...

[fulfilled123]

What a fix up. Carlos was not chosen but two ladies one who whistled thru her fingers was put through. We need some young people putting thru who they want, not the old foggies

[kgowen4444]

AHhh had to come back and listen to this again what a mess up AGT did when they eliminated Carlos :(

[dodaTiffany]

I can't belive he didn't even make it to the top 40... that was bull****! I love Carlos! He was amazing.

[Travsterable]

OMG haha I love Carlos!! XD He is so modest and seems like a pretty nice guy. His voice caught me off guard and so was everyone else's lol. THAT WAS AMAZING! I can't believe he didn't make it past the Las Vegas part. 

[MoroccanHotShot]

Carrrrrrrlos aponteeee from Puerrrrrrrrrrrto RRRRRRico! So confidenet I like that!

[raul77him]

Still can't believe he didn't win.

[AwakenedAscension3]

Good singer carlos..... I cannot beleive how the 75 yr old got through "but she's sweet" N she did the whistle through the hand, Carlos did not get through to las vegas round ^0^ xxx

[saleh564]

wow

[ChitownMichos]

frank si naaaaaaatraaaaa

[thesmokingmemories]

now 84 forgot the volume ooooooooo

[justindenaro22]

The first time I saw this I said wow my mouth said omg

[bdavid81]

Carlos amazed everyone when he opened his mouth to that music, and it was an incredible performance. I do hope he finds the life he's looking for, although I agree that he shouldn't have won.

This show is all about finding a true Vegas-style act, and opera wouldn't fit the bill for maximum viewers. Last year it really should have been Prince Poppycock, but once you saw the winner you lost even more hope that it's not about the best acts.

[Rndy09]

@bdavid81

Well, that's not true.. If you're speaking about overall talent, Michael Grimm took it... Outstanding soul singer, professional guitar player (played for bill medley from the righteous brothers), and even a great song writer (listen to "the reason" "I am" "something i said" "lets make love again" these are some songs he wrote).. He was the best act to me, which is why I voted for him and so did America.

[lifesgamble1]

puerto ricans have talent. Americans have no talent apart from Shania Twain

[bdavid81]

@lifesgamble1 Shania Twain is from Timmins, Ontario. Idiot.

[lifesgamble1]

@bdavid81 I am sorry for not knowing the exact location of where she is from in america, that gives you no right to be so rude to me

[567treehugger]

@lifesgamble1 A lot of other Americans have talent as do Puerto Ricans, English and Australians and etc. I'm sorry but that was very rude

[lifesgamble1]

@567treehugger I accept your apology

[kiffboy1]

This guy is absolutely brilliant!!!

[JamesChicharito123]

i thought this was in 2011?

[marlboroman2578]

its kinda unfortuant that america really dont know opera its beutiful music thnx for the post loved it

[hotmonga]

He's right, his voice is NICE! And what an adorable smile! That accent ain't bad either.

[yikes1111awake]

God given....stunning!

[kevinmartinez723]

PUERTO RICAN LIKE ME ;)

[astraboy80]

amazing!

[GIMGIMG]

Is not that good....

[LadyShadowDragon]

It's kinda like Gomer Pyle....his voice his talking voice does not match his singing voice, therefore unexpected but very good. I like him, he seems to nice and sweet.

[mchoxdbs]

george lopez brought me here.

[nateboy000]

puerrrrrrto rrrrrrrrico

[MsCandynails]

He look like a really nice and sweet guy i dont like how they make fun of his english

[StoneYourself]

Look at his eyebraw at 6:11 :)

[Rwardeh]

I love his accent....but what I love more...is his incredible voice!!!! WOW!

[Subarino]

THIS GUY IS THE SHIT!!

[sibeguev]

this guy has it all! so talented and hilarious! when he didn´t make it to the live shows that´s when i stopped wathing this show!

[max4duckman]

@sibeguev I agree. they put a guy flying a kite to the live shows.  wow!!! he had a good story but that was not a Vegas talent. Carlos would have been a top 5 at least.

[FairyFay1113]

I remember watching this one on television and thinking he was going to make a fool out of himself and get 3 X's. I was blown the fuck away and fell in love.

[GoldenShiner1]

83 people have never heard of Puerrrrrto Riccccccccco !!!!!!!

[JusHere2PostComments]

i didnt quite enjoy it but i couldnt help but have shivers all over my body from his outstanding voice x D

[drummerxkun]

83 people cried so much, they saw blurry and clicked the wrong button

[GoldenShiner1]

@drummerxkun hahahahhahah....oh man, this is so funny. LOL.....hahahaha

[qualopec]

Well, I'd say 83 people do not know about music if they didn't like this guy!! He is fantastic!!!

[TheDeerFolk]

LOL When he raised his eyebrow it was so adorable XD

[MrVinVin93]

he is so cute!

[GoldenShiner1]

This is a perfect example why we "should not judge book by it's cover." Notice the expresson on the 3 judges' faces when first opened up the song...they were like "oh shit..................." very powerful and magnificent voice........

[AngelBaby8901]

i actually teared up when i herd him sing such good talent

[shayla1982]

OMG...I was not expecting that... Such a big voice. Beautiful....

[FredDerSchoene]

WOW!

[KoponyaKapitany1]

OMG hes soooo damn cute and hes vioce is just amazing!

[JanineTirado]

Wow - what a voice!

[GoldenShiner1]

Ok. His voice singing sounds totally different than his speaking voice. He is fabulous!!!!!! I dont know why there are 82 people dislike him. they must be haters or idiots. How in the world can u dislike his voice? stupid idiots.

[123nenagirl]

Yeah boy! He's awesome :)

[tomboy287]

[baileyyyful]
