  • still got his hospital braclets on whats the deal DRUGS???? MENTAL ILLNESS????

  • @ATOMARIEL why capitalise them like they're shocking? everyone has issues

  • because I work in an ER and this is the main problem with the homeless

  • it is sad

  • I really doubt he is homeless

  • He's like the human version of Garfield

  • if he's on a radio show you'd think they'd let him clip and clean his narsty nails.

  • he botches this song alot, but still not bad. must have been the scope he drank before he walked into siriusxm building

  • the best man in the world forever i like the cure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • poor guy, homeless AND they make him play an ibanez...

  • YALL HATING R JUSS IGNORENT CAUSER HE HAS TALENY ..YEAH HE MAY B HOMLESS BUT HE HAS MORE HEART THEN ALL YALL FUCKS ...

  • @bigkingbird Grammer, all i have to say.

  • @haileykathleen Grammar.

  • it's a shame peoples' lives can end up like his, and everyone (including me) just sits there trying not to think about it, or we just walk past homeless people and see them as some kind of blight on our 'perfect' society. but they're people.

    man, fuck us.

  • @Iarehascheeseburger Some poeple just need a helping hand. Everyone at one point does. No matter rich or poor, in my eyes no life has any more value then anyone else. This is truly amazing though,this is what i wuld call a true musicians. Poor as dirt and making it this far. Man, fuck fame.

  • @LetgoOFyourBreath yeah i've got mad respect for this guy.

  • Alan from the hangover plays guitar pretty well (:

    HE'S NOT HOMELESS.. he's a rittard! :p

  • I've met "Julie" 20 times today, and that bitch bores me to death.

  • Is he still homeless?

  • @TheForestChannel he is no longer homeless and has an album out!

  • @TheForestChannel nop...search Daniel mustard

  • @TheForestChannel hell nah

  • @TheForestChannel He has a recording contract now

    

  • this guy is a pure sign of true talent

  • People stating that many doesn't in fact think he is good based on musical talent, but rather on that he is homeless. Of course music is better with a story, but I suppose that is forgotten nowadays

  • i think he is rich now

  • I like the bits where he played the wrong note. That facial expression I know well myself. Shit!!!

  • Original in the artificial fale artist

  • i love the wrong notes !!! now you know that it was the first try(sorry for this bad english if its bad)

  • Such emotion, such soul. Truly beautiful.

  • Man, tune that guitar

  • He does an amazing rendition. It's sounds completely sinister and extremely hurt filled, compared to the original. I suppose that's a good way to interpret the song.

  • his guitar needs tuning...

  • Homeless man likes good music.

  • the rly messed up thing is, he is 14.

  • @ISeeSickPpl havent laghed so much in a while thanks

  • Simple acoustic on 1 string and still 10 times better than the original.(bow)

  • best singer I ever heard was in a train station in london at night under a bridge (ha london bridges) there was a homeless guy with a guitar who looked like and probably had been sleeping in shit for 6 months - but the sound he was making was angelic - people just walking by ignoring him - I must have been there for an hour - he wasnt singng to anybody just purging his soul it sounded like !! a sad lonely/beautiful sound !!

  • Fucking brilliant, if i could sing like anyone it would be this guy. I play guitar but if i was a vocalist this is who i'd want to be like. Such simple plucking but the voice makes him shine!

  • Gimli?!? :P

  • No homeless play this quality of guitar.

  • @Sh4k4lul Quite a few very talented artists who can play better than most were homeless for a period of time.

  • @Sh4k4lul The studio let him use it

  • such humbleness and such talent. Learn Justin Bieber LEARN!

  • look at all the greats from yester-year... they ALL look like this guy. rough around the edges with amazing skills.

  • What does he say in the end?

  • @SadKeanuReeves I got 50 friggin' reasons to cry, you want a list?

  • fuckin' talented!

  • This guy has the best taste in music! He's singing all my favourite songs.

  • i want an explanation.....how is it this guy is less famous than justin beiber??

  • @tanbo15 cus girls probably don't want to fuck him

  • @tanbo15 Sad to say but it is because he does not make teenage girls wet and turn on closet gay teeneage boys who would never admit secretely listening to beiber!; And, not anyone would probably buy a poster of this guy because we live in such a sick and fake superficial coorporate world!

  • fuckin great man, love this version, downloaded to listen in my ipod when im at work, yea cause i have job

  • So this is what Gimili has been doing since the ring was destroyed!

  • @Solozerz nice rehash. 

  • @Solozerz Comment copy FAIL

    watch?v=hXlzci1rKNM&feature=re­lated

  • dudes got soul and feeeling and its not all in the beard which kicks as much ass as his music

  • Just another reason to shoot Bieber!

  • @Clessus +100500

  • @Clessus who?

  • i like this cover more than the original

  • is that the same guy who covered creep by radiohead ?

  • @thallertube yes

  • you can buy this voice. this is real

  • @freakinstein69 stfu bitch?

  • Zach Galifianakis. Love it.

  • @freakinstein69 He is homeless and probably don't play guitar much... Also he is clearly not a finger picker, he needs a pick, you prick troll.

  • @freakinstein69 have you listened to his cover of creep? retards don't play so good.

  • @freakinstein69 Erm he hasn't played guitar for 30 years and he didn't own the guitar his playing on, was provided by the studio. And the guitar part isn't supposed to be amazing to begin with, the title isn't "Through fire and flames by a homeless guy". As for retard, you obviously haven't gotten your facts straight so what gives you the liberty to imply that this person is a retard? I just hope you're one of those attention whores in which case i don't mind you acting up.

  • Why is this bum still homeless?

  • PLEAS CHECK OUT MY SONGS " RUFF BUT ORIGINAL IF YOU DO LIKE PLEAS LIKE SUBSCRIBE THANKS

  • SOUL

  • yea he looks like the guy from the reindeer, and you look like the pile of dog shit in my yard

    

  • Awesome!

  • looks like the guy from rudolf the red nose raindeer lol

  • @TheDailyGnarticlely  you're kinda right, but I love this rough voice he has. and that is really unique I guess

  • boys DO cry .... true story , it is emotion , every one does , & nothing is wrong with showing emotions ! LIGHT

  • interesting, how an real american man sings this totally british creepfeeling song, making it totally his own

  • Yea he is legit

  • absolute gash on the guitar tho

  • I hear buskers play good music all the time, he may not be "special" but I still like listening to him play

  • he should sing some dave mathews. like if you agree

  • 77 people have a horrible case of Bieber Fever -_-

  • @BigBadMunky96 Shut up and stop with this shit about some kid. Grow up.

  • Turn on transcribe audio, and try to not shit yourself laughing.

  • he's changed the whole song, but i think it sounds amazing. it's his own take on the song, and it sounds good, no one should complain.

  • He sounds kindof like Johnny Lang!

  • I totally have the same guitar... well use to.

  • yeah this guys shit! well not shit, but not great by any means.

  • I used to sing like Daniel mustard then i took and arrow in the knee

  • And Jedward have more money than this guy. Fucking disgusting

  • he is playing this totally wrong. it's in the wrong key, wrong notes, only 1 string, numerous errors throughout. just sayin'.

  • Comment removed

  • @CardTracker You can change a song´s key to adjust it for your vocal range. And a cover is your version of a song. Just sayin´

  • @CardTracker

    he probably transposed the music to fit his vocal range, he played different notes due to him transposing the song, and he can play the song anyway he wants too. its why its called a cover.

  • @CardTracker Dude fuck off for real. FUCK OFF!>

  • Can someone tell me if this dude is still homeless?

  • This man makes better music with his voice, an acoustic guitar, and a microphone than any pop star can make with thousands of dollars worth of fancy studio effects, and the best producers money can buy. This is what music is about.

  • @TheUnbreakableOtaku I second that.

  • @TheUnbreakableOtaku amen to that.

  • @TheUnbreakableOtaku

    A decent mic and a decent guitar easily cost 1000 dollars, but I know what you mean:p

  • Nirvana could reunite with this guy

  • @MrLucky83 alright i wouldnt go so far as to say he could replace kurt cobain

  • Why? This is real life for some people, but isn't what the most People want see...good man! Thanks for upload. It's a very good covered song in live. Greetz & a good, lucky new year 2012.

  • Dont get why he is homeless, with a cracking singing voice, get him a record deal x

  • erkekler ağlamaz

  • SANTA YEAH!!!!!!

  • if his album releases, i would totally buy it.

  • @JelenaJileyJemi4ever Was released last year, get to it.

  • @spearrbk :D cool! I'm totally buying it!!!!! <3<3<3

  • @spearrbk what is it called

  • very good, Help this fella get paid.

  • Amazing!!

    

  • GINGERBEARD

  • fuckin like you!

  • so talented singer . I love .

  • I know before hand that I am vastly out numbered and that this comment will be beaten, but I honestly don't understand why everyone loves this guy so much. In all honesty, its blowing up just because he's homeless. If this was just some random guy that posted this online it would be trolled on..

  • @TheDailyGnarticle I sort of agree. He's not a bad singer, but also not anything special, and he's a pretty bad guitar player, to be honest. I would probably give him a few bucks if I heard him on the street, because he's better than most buskers by a long shot, but give him a record deal? Yeah right.

  • @a3th3r dude...listen to his cover of creep. his voice is beautiful. it's the kind of rusty worn-down voice which only a homeless guy could have and it makes him real special.

  • @TheDailyGnarticle the fact that he's homeless certainly helps the sob story aspect of it but nowadays there's very few professional musicians that can actually make the listener feel their emotions and connect with them. i believe that is something special and should not be ignored

  • @handball1000 There are also very few prodessional musicians who play actual instruments.

  • @TheDailyGnarticle If you don't hear his voice, I'm sorry for you.. Go back and here his creep cover. His voice is special and he sings with so much feelings. I don't care if he was the worlds richest guy or homeless, he sings in a way I don't hear often.

  • @Sloveren I do hear his voice... I never said he didn't put emotion into his singing. I just said he doesn't really have musical talent and once again, he is getting this publicity because he is homeless. He makes multiple errors in this video and people are still shitting themselves over it. I think in my previous comment I was actually pretty reasonable.

  • @TheDailyGnarticle listen to his cover of creep, and you'd understand why.

  • @slashofdeath I have..

  • @TheDailyGnarticle emotions that he puts in singing...

  • @assassinbbx I agree with you about that, but there are many talented artists out there right now waiting to be discovered who will put just as much emotion into their work. I still stand by my comment that if he was not homeless, people would be ridiculing him.

  • @TheDailyGnarticle those who appreciate music wouldn't....sadly, you're probably right (or would leave a justin bieber comment)

    guess its something we people have called sympathy

  • @TheDailyGnarticle Yeah, but he isn't.

  • @Che44ter I know.. he clearly isn't. What is your point?

  • @TheDailyGnarticle

    I feel that he is indeed rather good, a plesent voice etc... But I have to agree with you, there are pletty of singers who are equaly good or even better that never get this kind of recongizion. This is prolly due to the "fairytale" situation. Anyway, if someone

  • @TheDailyGnarticle I can't say for anyone else, but I love his unique, musky voice.

  • @TheDailyGnarticle but... but he is homeless!

  • @TheDailyGnarticle The truth is, i dont care if he is homeless or not. He knows how to use his voice, and thats amazing.

  • @MochiNeko Well said.

  • @MochiNeko sorry, accidentally clicked on dislike button on your comment :(

    This guy's awesome.

  • @pililineunz No problem ;D

  • please guys help him and make him famous! he has got talent!

  • he can sing but he cant play guitar dislike this comment all you want a mean the guy deserves to be on the tv on the charts ect but get someone to teach him to play or play with him cause the guitar thing just aint working sorry |:

  • DAMN, DO ALL HOMELESS HAVE A GREAT VOICE

  • @wemakepies seems that way :P

  • this went right into my fav section , r u kiddin me , this guy is awesome , just saw his "creep" video b4 and now this here !! someone should give him a album contract

  • @knight0582 He has one and is now well of :)

  • could someone maybe tab this out for me THANKS :D

  • @Thebeastfromtheweest the tabulature isnt all that difficult. He's not using any other string except the first one. You really should be able to tab this yourself even if you just started playing.

  • @CAD742 clever mom joke. what, only you can fuck with people? i comment one single word and your pussy ass can't handle it? god damn. and not only that but you didn't even use assure correctly, dumb fuck.

  • @CAD742 assure*

  • @Wahoofuck A room, new clothes and a freaking record deal. WTF is wrong with them, they got a great man there and they won't help him? I don't get people today? I seriously don't.

  • Ryan Dunn?

    

  • I learned a new song today lol

  • Somebody needs and axe...

  • @xBlooWahFullx He has his axe. He's sitting with it the whole video ;)
