I love that this guy won. He deserved it! There's so much talent out there, it's sad that not everyone gets their moment to shine. That's why I love MakeAStar. Their website makes it so much easier for people to get their talent out there. Go there and maybe vote on one of their contests, or even enter if you're up for it.
@Arimaarima71 : that's for sure! :) Good one// this is definately a modern day " rags to riches story".. I wish something like this will happen to me! LOL.. God bless.
I think he won mostly on the way he looks versus the way he sounds. I would've never expected him to sing like that. However he is not a bad singer, but needs more tune.
I love him, breaking stereotypes and making everyone feel good at the same time. Landaeu is reminding everyone that music transcends cliche's and conventions! I bought his album on iTunes because I want to listen to it and to support him. This show proves it serves its purpose.
Beautiful voice and stage presence. There is a great Sinatra type song on youTube titled "In My Eyes"....by leo and me . It would be a great song for you.
I checked and it is registered to an ASCAP publisher. The best of everything to you.
Why did he win? Why didn't Team Illuminate win? Or The Silhouettes? They were more original and had more talent. If he wanted to win singing, he should have gone on American Idol. He just had some pathetic sob story. Same with Fighting Gravity and Michael Grimm last year. Just because he had some sob story, he won. His voice wasn't that great, he just does a lot of yelling. I'm not gonna go to Vegas to see someone sing. How will he stack up to the other great acts out there?
@ellipsis8896 Pretty sure singing is a hell of a lot more marketable then watching a bunch of people dance... who pays to see that (have you ever?) money makes the world go round no one gives a fuck about stuff if it doesn't sell more than the next thing.
@thiefgold0913 I don't think as many people would have voted for him if he hadn't told his pathetic sob story. This show is about TALENT, and it's unfair to leverage your woe-is-me background to gain votes. He's just trying to imitate Sinatra, and there is nothing original about that.
@ellipsis8896 Team iLuminate for the exception of the video game routine lost because despite their light show they forget about storytelling that connected with the audience. Landau's showed how much great and talented crooning is missed by the American public.
Google "Landau returns to West Virginia" GREAT ARTICLE WITH LONG VIDEO IN AIRPORT WHEN HE RETURNS, PLUS.........Murphy's stage show in Vegas gets started Oct. 28. He said he'll perform three times per week for one month. After that, he's free to perform or record elsewhere or stay in Vegas.
Landau is loved by everyone because he sings with so much emotion and dared to sing what nobody listens to nowadays. He also connects with the audience and has an aura that just inspires. He doesn't care about pop and all the crappy noise that pop singers think, sound good. If what Piers said was true, that his soundcheck sounded horrible, I'll admire him even more. Go Landau! Keep going on strong!
@9I4I1I well said, and I agree with everything. Some say there are better singers than Landau, then where are they? and maybe there are but Landau also has that emotional connection to the audience and Pier is right, when he says he has that FACTOR, that IT FACTOR that cannot be manufactured. Of course it's about the voice but there is so much more to it!
Forget all the people who know about him just cause he won, We've been loving him from the start lol, Love the singing, that's some good true entertainment and talent right there....So Glad for him, he deserves it!.
To all haters - READ THIS CAREFULLY. THE UNDERDOG STILL CAN WIN ESPECIALLY IN AMERICA ! This victory was sweet because it shows a washed chump can still bounce back and be a WINNER. To all the assholes who voted against him , just show up to an interview as a loser and see what happens. Cinderella stories still exist and this guy is living proof. Good for you Landau and the best of the success for your promising future !
Hooray for the Family Guys! Both gentlemen entered competitions to make a better life for their families. First, Javier Colon on the Voice. And now Landau Eugene Murphy, Jr. on AGT! Congratulations! You really deserve this.
Felicidades Landau ,tu te lo mereces luchaste por lo que realmente querías ,ese sueño ya es realidad ,Tu humildad y tu gran talento nos robo el corazón ,te esperamos por miami LJ
That's what I love about the USA, they know how to appreciate and reward Talent with no regards to the color of skin - God Bless America!!!!!! what a lesson to the world!
@vancouerjoey this is the first time in 3 seasons AGT got a proper winner, Kevin skinner was garbage and Grimm was good but Jackie Evenko is an absolute superstar.
