I love Michael Grimm, but I still like Delbert McClintons version better. I would love to hear him do "Dark End Of The Streets" This is a very good version, but I love the horns in Delbert's version.
michael grimm needs to sing the dark end of the street by percy sledge man that boy would blow everybody that ever tried to sing that song out of the water
Hi there from Europe... I heard this one a couple of years ago and was deeply impressed! Now, after not hearing it for a while, I just found out he has won AGT...GREAT!
Loved the Bobby Mc Gee version of him with Jewel! during teh finals!
everytime i hear him sing i get chill bumps! his voice is addicting! and he is good looking to top it off. and you can just tell he is very kind, he has so much passion. god should make more men like him because he is what i call a "real man"
First saw this video shortly after Michael auditioned on AGT. I keep returning to it over and over, and every time I marvel at this performance. Brilliant!
I have always loved this song every since i first heard it on a movie called dream a little dream, I didn't think a song could get much better than that, but hearing Michael singing it with such passion just really blew me away.. I have loved him since AGT and I said then when he put out an album I would get it. I would love to hear him cut this song on a tribute album or something.... I just love this guy's voice....

UPDATE! Michael's Vegas cd release concert sold out & was incredible!! His new cd is out in 1 week, May 17th! Early review: 'Not a weak spot on his debut cd, his sound, class, looks will take him as far as he wants to go'!! **♪Go Michael!!♪**
Well, sugarx666 just said it best! But, here we go......I love Bruce Springsteen, but if he could have chosen a protegee, I think Michael would be IT!! Michael, in a modest way (read, also a very sensual and tender way) you have combined the voices of the Righteous Brothers, Joe Cocker, Bruce Springsteen and Ray Charles - uh, just to name a few I'm hearing. May the source of your heart remain your inspiration - even in success!
For insight into the real Michael, watch: Michael Grimm Exclusive Interview With Bill & McKenna Medley..(Bill's from the Righteous Bros.)..Great interview!!
Hey scratch that last part... I guess only his new single "Fallin'" was released on itunes, but the cd can't be purchased until May =)) sorry about that, and your welcome...
This guy is so amazing, iheard him first on his audition on American Idol. I come from Glasgow, Scotland, so a bit out of touch. has Michael released an any CDs, because i would surely buy them,
Yes he has many cd's.. As of right now, there are 3 self produced albums that you can purchase. His "live" cd is full of live covers: which includes this song, "walking in memphis" "you dont know me" "bang bang, my baby shot me down" "try a little tenderness" "Proud Mary" and a few others... Then he has his "leave your hat on" cd, which shows his more soulful side.. His cd with EPIC records comes out on itunes tomorrow, but wont be on a disc until May =)) They're all outstanding!
I just found this guy from a comment on Youtube! I could have been listening to him do my favorite music for how long? Wow. I loved Otis Redding, Al Green, Buddy Guy, etc. and now I have a new addition to my list. Michael Grimm. Wow, I am impressed and that doesn't happen often.
@azmildman - welcome to grimm world!! TRY: i've been loving you too long, i'd rather go blind & bang bang - at hanks...then, originals: the reason (both versions) & i am...also see michael grimm live at green valley ranch...he can shred the guitar: michael on guitar, michael grimm with bill medley: this will be the last time..he is AMAZING!!ENJOY! let us know what you think & pass the word!!!
I have been sitting here for several hours listing to Michael sing and cannot find the words to express my adoration for his music and his soulful voice. I was a lifelong fan when he was on AGT. I could listen to him all day and night. Can't wait for his new album to come out in March. God bless you Michael.
He reminds me of Roy Buchannan (lost friend) He has a special talent. Love to see him put words to Roy's Messiah. It's so there. Roy was a special friend lost him and his talent. Michael has it & so much more
oops! i meant live at green valley ranch, it's love, more than i can say...also try all songs at the silver slipper (hometown waveland, ms)....pass the word how great he is...see his guitar work in: guitar talk, this will be the last time...enjoy!!!
*** also check out: bang bang, i'd rather go blind, live at green valley rach, originals: the reason, i am, it's love more than i can say, et] etc all great!!
@CamfrogHackers - just f.y.i.: michael won the las vegas black music association award for best blues performer 2010 (bma award), well respected soulful singer/great songwriter/great guitarist who started out in country music (like otis, ray, sam, dr. john, percy, etc)...all great!!! don't destroy...enjoy!!!...
Is it just me or is this singer more genuine than most "professional" singers?
My prediction -- "professional" singers will clammer to him in hopes his sincerity "rubs off". Fact is, guilt may be by association, but talent is not.
This ol' lady is just in love~!!!! Waiting for a new record, Michael...You remind me of Otis and those good ol' boys~!!! But....you put them to shame!!!! Your voice just screams blues blues blues.....Keep it up, kid~!!!!!!!
What are you talking about? He got signed by Epic Records which is the same Record Company that signed Michael Jackson and Sara Barellies, and Shakira, and Sade, and a whole bunch of huge artists today.. Really? Keep up with the angel? Don't forget that his cd's are still top sellers on cdbaby (and have been for months).
Soooo much talent---love him from the start. He has a pure heart and soul for music. HE HAS A MAJIC IN HIS SOUND AND FEELING FOR MUSIC--GOD BLESS YOU MICHAEL
@ValerieJJoyce Great to see you here too! I love this song. He has so many great videos on YT. I have been listerning to them all the time and keep on coming back for more.
Well, he already has 3 self produced cd's which are selling pretty well and he's coming out with a new cd that he's making with Sony Epic Records in March of next year.
Well...he closes his eyes for the passion to come out in his song...it is common sense to know this...when you kiss someone and it is passionate is your eyes opened or closed....Mine are closed...because of the passion in my soul for the person....
Exactly!!! I don't get what people are talking about when they see he needs to open his eyes more, that's not what he's about. lol. I guess they just don't get it.
@Rndy09 you know...alot of people said that the litle girl should have won the contest...but strongly disagree.....she came in over 1/2 way through....she didnt stand out side and in line up to get there...you should not be able to just stroll in there and try to win. equal proccess for all contestants. I will own every album this guy puts out there. He is hell of a signer.
I couldn't agree with you more, it was very unfair that she got the chances that she got, but to be honest, I think Grimm is much more talented. Not only is he one of the best blues/soul singers I've heard in a very long time, but he's also an awesome guitar player, and a pretty good song writer.. The right guy won hands down.
@Rndy09 I couldn't agree with you more. For MG's future performances, I believe MG has to remember the advise that Sharon and Piers gave on week 48 of his AGT performance (open his eyes more often and engage his audience).
eh, im not sure I agree with that last part. For me, he's connecting when he's closing his eyes because he looks like he's feeling his music. You can just feel the emotion and passion that he's putting into it. Same with Jonny Lang and Bruce Springstein, and many others. They all close their eyes because that's how they connect. Idk, just my thoughts, lol.
@Rndy09 I agree wholeheartedly! He is amazingly soulful and it comes through even more when he closes his eyes....I love Bon Jovi...he totally engages the audience...HOWEVER....even he is so much sexier and soulful when he closees his eyes :)
If it were possible, Delbert McClinton must've had a Michael Grimm poster on his bedroom wall. This guy has SOUL. I will be following him and his success.
I absolutely love this guy. Humble, and oh so very talented. He is also a bit Janis Joplin and young Joe Cokerish....If that makes sense. But above all he is Michael Grimm and unique and special talent that I hope we hear a lot more of.
marvellous im dutch but this songs come right from and into my heart....all saturday listenig to him, cause its always raining here.....great and marvellous...great future this one .....bye
@Stomperalley PLEASE don't mention Michael Bolton in the same sentence as the others. Pause...Otis Redding, Ray Charles, Percy Sledge or Joe Cocker. That being said, I think Michael has the life experience to sing with the emotion it takes to sing these songs. I am waiting for his first release and future concerts. He will is/will be one of the great ones.
It's funny that ever I say will make it always does a few years later. Siting in my friend's living room, michael sang "i am" and I said then he would make it and now look. Congratulations mike. One of the best I've seen in a long time.
Michael if you one day you read this, I want to let you know that I have never cried with a song that anyone sang before, you really touched my heart with this song, and I wish you the best. From now on I will be your number one fan...........
Michael if you one day read this, I want to let you know that I have never cried with a song that anyone sang before, you really touched my heart with this song, and I wish you the best. From now your number one fan.............
Way to go Michael I know your family is very proud of you. Mississippi is proud of you too. We needed some happiness after hurricane Katrina and then the BP oil spill...you make us all very proud!God bless you and I look forward to buying your CD's make sure you book at Biloxi Hardrock so we can all come see you. Take care Rebecca and family:)
Congratulations, Michael Grimm, I wish the best for you ,anybody that loves their granparents, like you do, deserve the very best, you are a good person, never change and you will go far, may God bless you now and always.
I absolutely looooove this song. ~<3~ It haunts me. ~ <3~ That's a good kind of haunting. This is one dream come true for Michael. Answered prayers for you, Michael and all who were routing for you. God bless you!
I am so glad that Michael won AGT last night. He was wonderful and I am looking forward to music from him for years to come. Congradulations Michael, you deserved to win.
look up James Carr on you tube he was the best that nobody never heard back in the day . MICHAEL IS VERY GOOD ALSO hope he finds some of his own music and bring soul back . not much new soul out these days ..
America needs his brand and I hope and pray he goes all the way to the tope, he won AGT tonight and my prayers are answered. A fine young man, an American to be proud of. A star is born!
My father was onced signed with Motown. He just passed away but wow what a blessing he would have had to hear this man sing. Some ole soul that feels what the singer is sayin is to understood by his audience. I'll buy every CD. Maybe he will sing some Van Morrison too one day. ~Raven
Hi Michael! It's me Jodie from facebook. I just joined your fan page there and post this song because I love it and wanted your other fans to enjoy this performance too. God bless you! I really am pulling for you to win America's Got Talent. =0)
who in the h3ll are the 4 ppl that didnt like this performance. You all dont know good music nor do know what talent is.Im a asst. for an upcoming blues singer and this is the best this song has ever been done . trust i know this is my fav.song in the world
This is sheer talent...the voice of a true artist...a true superstar...he deserves to win it...his reach to the average person is far greater than any opera singer...not to take away from Jackie's talent...but Michael represents a man of the people with his soulful outreach...absolutely wonderful gift from The Creator!
I am praying for him to win it...apart from Jackie Evancho, I haven't seen any of the other acts but, as I am not easily "touched" by "worldly" things, the fact that this boy has made such an impact on my senses speaks volumes; I suppose it's the real life pain that is manifest in his voice and etched in his face...there is a humility there that comes from pain...I hope he isn't corrupted by fame and fortune...in the meantime, let us send nothing but good vibes his way!
@Aikaterinity I really hope he stays himself, because he is perfect as he his. I know in recent times I have started to envy fame very little. May he avoid all the pitfalls of money and fame.
@dinoyaya I'm from the south, and his voice reminds me of old times. Then again, I'm close to the same age as him, so we probably grew up with some of the same feelings.
AGT does nothing for this outstanding artist. I feel win or loose he will make it big and take care of his grandma all by himself. I think people need to listen to him off of AGT (like on youtube) and they will see that he has so much more to offer then a minute and a half of his awsome voice. I have added a lot of his videos to my page so that people can see first hand how AMAZING he really is. Keep up the great work Michael and band.
What an amazing voice, and pretty good looking too!!! I <3 his version of this song!!!! I hope he sings this on AGT finals... I hope he wins!!! He is AMAZING!!!!!! <3 you Mike G
One of these days we'll be saying that a new singer sounds like Michael Grimm instead of comparing them to Otis Redding, Ray Charles, Percy Sledge, and even Michael Bolton. Great singer, great song, great soul... I could listen to this all day.
Consider it added. There are so many and Michael does them all so well, I'd fill up 10 pages listing them all, but thanks for the heads up. You are absolutely right. I am so glad that America has seen his abilities and I can't wait to see him in person.
@Stomperalley The only reason anyone will do that, is solely because they'll have forgotten those true greats, rather than Michael Grimm particularly taking a place amongst them.
@DarklegionnaireX I played with some of the greats when I was younger and I will never forget. Michael's talent ranks right up there. I saw that the first time I heard him sing and he hasn't let me down yet.
@Stomperalley It's not about comparing, it's more about remember those who brought this music to surface and to have Michael Grimm who is a wonderful voice with alot of SOUL it's a very proud moment of the past.
@Stomperalley It's not about comparing, it's more about remember those who brought this music to the surface again and to have Michael Grimm who is has wonderful voice with alot of SOUL it's a very proud moment of the past.
How does talent like this not have a record deal?! There are people who cant sing for nothing and they're on the radio like Justin Beiber! Justin's only popular because hes cute, he sure cant sing very well! Michael is AMAZING!
@Kittycats33 Me too girl! I love the soul in his voice, its like hes been reincarnated with Otis Redding or something with how he sings this song! I love Michael and I hope to but his cd real soon. His cd is on cdbaby.com, he has 3 of them. Michaels live cd has this song on it.
this would be one of the first comments I have placed in a forum but want to let you know, Michael, that...the soul in your voice captures all my emotions and lets them loose. I have had much hardache and you can express this so in your music. I didn't watch AGT, but will to see if you win. congradulations, you are a star. Good luck, would love to hear more. :-) am posting this on all your videos...you are wonderful!
That's what i'm talkin about...

I couldn't agree with you more, it was very unfair that she got the chances that she got, but to be honest, I think Grimm is much more talented. Not only is he one of the best blues/soul singers I've heard in a very long time, but he's also an awesome guitar player, and a pretty good song writer.. The right guy won hands down.

@Rndy09 I couldn't agree with you more. For MG's future performances, I believe MG has to remember the advise that Sharon and Piers gave on week 48 of his AGT performance (open his eyes more often and engage his audience).

@hardyscrub12
eh, im not sure I agree with that last part. For me, he's connecting when he's closing his eyes because he looks like he's feeling his music. You can just feel the emotion and passion that he's putting into it. Same with Jonny Lang and Bruce Springstein, and many others. They all close their eyes because that's how they connect. Idk, just my thoughts, lol.
Rndy09 1 year ago
@Rndy09 I agree wholeheartedly! He is amazingly soulful and it comes through even more when he closes his eyes....I love Bon Jovi...he totally engages the audience...HOWEVER....even he is so much sexier and soulful when he closees his eyes :)

I absolutely love this guy. Humble, and oh so very talented. He is also a bit Janis Joplin and young Joe Cokerish....If that makes sense. But above all he is Michael Grimm and unique and special talent that I hope we hear a lot more of.

@Stomperalley PLEASE don't mention Michael Bolton in the same sentence as the others. Pause...Otis Redding, Ray Charles, Percy Sledge or Joe Cocker. That being said, I think Michael has the life experience to sing with the emotion it takes to sing these songs. I am waiting for his first release and future concerts. He will is/will be one of the great ones.

I am praying for him to win it...apart from Jackie Evancho, I haven't seen any of the other acts but, as I am not easily "touched" by "worldly" things, the fact that this boy has made such an impact on my senses speaks volumes; I suppose it's the real life pain that is manifest in his voice and etched in his face...there is a humility there that comes from pain...I hope he isn't corrupted by fame and fortune...in the meantime, let us send nothing but good vibes his way!

AGT does nothing for this outstanding artist. I feel win or loose he will make it big and take care of his grandma all by himself. I think people need to listen to him off of AGT (like on youtube) and they will see that he has so much more to offer then a minute and a half of his awsome voice. I have added a lot of his videos to my page so that people can see first hand how AMAZING he really is. Keep up the great work Michael and band.
