[semette]

His voice is better than sinastra's. It has more groove in it!

[HIPhopPRODUCERz]

i love rap n shit, but sinatras kind of shit is timeless

[alexliani]

51 black rappers dont like this video

[MrChristopheFrance]

NO LOL JUST GREAT TALENT..!!!!

[YuneShik]

this man just makes me smile. no homo

[kelseyleong58]

i could tell from his performance that he was a bit nervous but overall i still feel he sang really good.

[libbyrock123]

People quit with the racist fight again and just enjoy seeing this very deserving man winning! He's a man like every other man!! Only with waay more talent than most of us!! I'm so happy for him!

[murphturph66]

looks like kenneith farried

[legwithanattitude]

I think black people need to get over themselfs, there humans first and by the way this man has talent

[wanjiran]

@MyShadowgaming I rewinded the damn video at least 10 times....was laughing my ass off everytime....

[twiwonder]

@MyShadowgaming hm. did you ever consider 50 people just don't like Sinatra?

[K1NGofCRAZY]

@twiwonder

Nobody hates sinatra

[anetaluka]

LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL THING

[dagninojesse]

couldn't happen to a more deserving guy...my heart goes out to him and his family

[mynshade]

he looks like "drogba

[infernitylord]

he is brilliant but i liked anna more!

[OfficialMessenger]

WE ARE! lol

[dantealarcon]

48 ppl here who disliked this guy are probably deaf...

[jsidiropoulou]

as a compliment we listen to white singers and say 'close your eyes and they sound like a black soul singer' the same applies to this singer - close you eyes and he's a white rat pack member - again a compliment! What a crooner!!

[WashfromCali]

Landau sang wonderfully.  I think this is the first time that he looked nervous. Probably it was because he was being distracted by the dancers. He really didn't need them!! He is a class act all by himself.

[XxGaiaGurlxX]

wow i just had a eargasm!! AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

[soufiane1573]

you are a real star man....i wish that the famous not change u...because you are my idol

[henryjon73]

He will make Michael Bubble run for his money...hihiiihi

[MrAndy51286]

@henryjon73 LEMJ slaughters Micheal Bubles forced shitty voice.

[SouljaKidDa1]

I go to school with his son.. OMG thats cool that his Dad is on the show

[ashburn2010]

uh .. his voice & the song lullaby me under the moon

[tuzo19017]

Big band singers' names always have to be Jr. -.-

[thecolaratlady]

Such a talent, I wish you MANY years of success and happiness.

[zzzthaoster]

u deserve it man,,,it's bout time u get pay for it.

[Theguy493]

He sounds just like Sinatra.

[thetruth377]

every city has a crazy guy on the street (a bum) that can sing like this guy and they usually do it for spare change.This guy won the loto

[Socceraze]

HE IS THE BEST SHUT UP INEEDZOMBIEHELP

[stevenl316]

@INEEDZOMBIEHELP Smart

[cairozmahm]

@INEEDZOMBIEHELP And I'm sure you're better.

[2412username]

franks back and black x)

[MeVickers]

What a fabulous way to bring about a change in what’s available for our listening pleasure! Landau has a warm velvet honey tone that only will get better as he gets more experience. His thoughtful expression is so fresh and yet so yesterday. A tribute to all the greats…you know who they are…can't wait for more!

[purplelady056]

His family and friends i'm sure is so very proud, very talented

[felisagabay]

I will buy his album....

[lovinlemon]

THATS MY DAD FRIEND!! REPPIN WV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[irpala]

LOVE HIS VOICE

[WhiskeyTango12]

He did miss some of the notes Piers wasn't lying.

[Hilarymuff68]

press 6 for iv jizzed!

[ZachLaughs]

honestly he doesn't sound that great

hard to hear this after listening to the original so much too

[wilsonbarber]

If you want to compare Landau's and Frank's performance you can go here ...

/watch?v=2tZTM1wh96k&feature=r­elated

This comparison reveals how Piers' blew the call

[OxygenForUranus]

(4:35) = you're evil!

[BabyPyramidHead]

YOU'RE EVIL!

[worldofjohnboy]

The guy has talent, don't get me wrong... but he's a Sinatra vocal clone, nothing more. At least with the other musical acts, they changed the songs up and gave their own take on popular songs. There is no question that Poplyfe will have much more success. I wish all of the finalists the best.

[debtpeon]

@worldofjohnboy A vocal "clone". What crapola. He is a CROONER and an excellent one at that. Unlike you, Landau APPRECIATE Sinatra and you should APPRECIATE that Landau has renewed interest in this genre with his EXCELLENT tone and singing abilities.

[esquibelle]

Love this guy & hope he has a wonderful life as a singer. He was born for this.

[renanfb]

I JUST CAN'T STOP WATCHING IT!

[irpala]

@renanfb ME TOO

[TranceAnton]

cant believe he won... I still can't believe it. 

[WMChin987]

I voted for him 30 times...he deserved every last one,and he definitely deserved to win.

[moonwalker091000]

I didn't mind the dancers they were not a big part of the show, not "in your face". Landau was definitely the focal point of the performance. He certainly doesn't need dancers but I don't think they took anything away from his peformance either. Also they suited the generation of the music. Can anyone tell me if Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin had dancers in the background when they were performing?

[debtpeon]

@moonwalker091000 Dean Martin had the Golddiggers. Frank did appear with dancers in Guys and Dolls. Landau's performance was flawless it was Piers' bogus commentary that spoiled the performance.

[syncswim123]

I think Piers said what he did because he really wanted to get Landau's fans to vote and not take it for granted that he would win. His comments about Landau's voice and the person he is have been so positive. Landau 'is' the only one he would pay a lot of money to watch for 1 1/2 hours!

[stevchowder]

@Colts38Pats34 Please do not reply to this comment*? What if I want too. This guy is amazing, you just don't know real music because you listen to crap ass rap.

[bigmama88885]

AHAHHAHAHA props for the guy that said "your evil!!!!" LOL

[ashmara1012]

representing WV GREAT <3

[wanjiran]

The guy in the back screaming at Piers... "you're evil"...that was damn funny...lol

[RandomFever4U]

@wanjiran lol yea piers deserved that cuz Landau rules :)

[youngshadow1]

@wanjiran LMAO

[FaTeAmBiTiOn]

@wanjiran and then he said WE ARE hahaha

[wanjiran]

@FaTeAmBiTiOn now that's a die hard fan....lol

[FaTeAmBiTiOn]

@wanjiran dam rite hahaha

[ryanstevens11]

@wanjiran he then yelled at Piers again "we are" 5:03 ....Classic

[wanjiran]

@ryanstevens11 ...lol...and they sure did....vote for him.

[JokerLurver]

Talent like this makes me love this show and America.

[Hollyhooch1]

Piers has GOT to see a doctor about his hearing. This is not only relevant to Landau. He's criticized other vocalists as well for missing notes when I didn't hear it! Yes, sometimes they miss notes but Piers has called a bunch of them that "just ain't so". He did it with Anna Graceman and Sharon argued with him about it. Thing is, he might be hurting someone's chances with his tone deafness.

[fadedyouthtube]

Today he's got a mic in his hand.  Tomorrow the crack pipe will be back in his hand. You can't teach an old dog new tricks.

[erickrocket]

@fadedyouthtube SHUT THE H.E.L.L. OFF  DEVIL

[15kalcie]

@fadedyouthtube Lay off dude. He deserved to win. Haven't you ever heard don't judge a book by its cover?

[overbyjames]

@fadedyouthtube Who said anything about crack? You racist son of a bitch, go fuck yourself and die. Because he's black you assume he's a crackhead? I rarely say this but, you sir, are a cunt, a bigot, racist, cunt.

[BuddyTheWhiteKnight]

I still can't believe he won! He was my fav from the start, Glad for him....That's some good talent and entertainment right there.

[genegimono112]

I thought I was seeing Samuel Jackson on stage for a second lol.

[wilsonbarber]

That's ENTERTAINMENT!!! Excellent CROONING!!!

[dennisk415]

Wow what a voice!!!!!!

[GoJamalN]

4:35 " Youre evil! " Lmao

[JeremyK3094]

PROUDLY FROM WV!

[MBFLmom]

He seems like a nice guy - good singer, but listening to him makes me realize how great Sinatra was - he is no Sinatra

[vmedina2010]

@MBFLmom you would have had to have heard sinatra sing live, without any professional training to make that an accurate comparison.

[Gettingfitt09]

@MBFLmom hes just as good as sinatra if not .. better.. sorry

[Rennrock02]

honestly im tired of singing acts winning but i love them at the same time and out of them landau is my favorite

[fadedyouthtube]

He looks like a crackhead.

[KINGofWORLDmj]

[politicalkev]

You see sometimes there is a happy ending. Good luck in you future in Vegas Landau

[gerrylentz]

I don't see any of you haters doing this. He's good, go back to your X Box on the couch.

[Complex2k6]

He has a good voice, but it doesn't have the power needed to sing this type of music.

[tee3ac]

regardless of what most of you think of the guy he did what he came to do and thats WIN congrats man!

[fadedyouthtube]

He should be in a crack house smoking out of a pipe.

[Booshwas]

@fadedyouthtube Hey, cool story bro. In which chapter do you shut the fuck up?

[creeees]

@fadedyouthtube And you should be at the bottom of the ocean with a chain anchoring you to a steal beam. Hater.

[AlphaMaxx1]

Honestly, His velvety voice is better than Sinatra's!..

[MsPrincesspoppycock]

I knew you would win! You are such a terrific performer! Wish you the very best with your career. Your wife is beautiful, btw.

[ozzfan1979]

CONGRATULATIONS LANDAU!

[kirbyfernando]

@spitinsk8er....I agree. He's too bland and very karaoke-ish...he's no Frank Sinatra in anyway. I'm sure he's a nice guy and a hard worker but a singer he is not. What the hell is wrong with America?? Doesn't anyone know how to be original anymore. iLuminate and Silo's should have been the top two. I guarantee that he will be forgotten just as fast at Amy Winehouse.

[jenonajo]

What's the matter with you Kirby? your name should be Kir-bland.you don't have any taste with music after reading your comment comparing a good singer with a karaoke?you can't compare those 2. nobody is saying that he is FS either.he can sing the songs of FS better that anybody... America has voted.he won 1mil$ what's your problem? are you in the right channel even? Have you heard of the good singing group Maroon 5. You should be called MORON 1. cause you don't know what you're blabbering!

[jenonajo]

[LegiitXOXO]

@shwilloh my parents voted 35 times. haha

[hope4hunter2000]

@shwilloh if he owes you five dollars then he must owe me $40.00, cause i voted 40 times, WTG Landau ^5

[moonwalker091000]

@shwilloh Ha! I voted for him 110 times! :)

[spitinsk8er]

Call me crazy, but he isn't that good. Very bland tone to his voice. Seems like a nice guy but those Illuminati folks were way more impressive.

[mcbdpb]
