[manson1837]

best thing I have ever seen on talentshows on youtube

[SlawitMixPinapple]

Goose Bumps :')

[imrenluvscurry]

its amazing how he only sings about 1 minute and a couple seconds of a 5 minute song, yet it seems much stronger and vibrant than the original... cant stop listening!!!

[ginger5416]

You know someone has true, raw talent when you watch a video like this over 500 times and feel like crying every. single. time.

[canalAlexF]

[philophobicc]

if you got talent, you've got it. you've no need for fancy clothes to sell yourself.

[Glock3260]

@philophobicc That's exactly right. Today's music is all about image and its so disappointing.

[TheOneOveractor]

am i the only one who thinks he never topped this performance?

[iannesofie]

Coulnd't agree more with @SFGftw.

Since when did music become something that has anything to do with what clothes you wear. Gheez...

[iannesofie]

@iannesofie Couldn't*

[lozziilauren93]

[Gonken88]

I wish him all the best and I hope he's making money on his talent. he's such a good sport and he and his girl look so happy together, she's so sweet. love the part where they're eating cupcakes while waiting for his audition, although it's been cut out here.

[MrKrelano]

[geitaap]

He sounds a bit like John Legend!

[Tiggermiao]

talented voice and excellent choice of song for audition, I would love to go to a live concert of him performing.

[dougisbest1]

[gEnIoOhAzEl]

[slimjimownz]

is it ridiculous if i actually like this more than the original?

[7thingsaboutxMe]

when u see him you're like "he's all down to earth, i think he could probably sing well" but when you hear him OMFG he's God.

[LeBronJames06am]

ı think its 10000 times better than original !

[dhopestSAB]

Why the hell is hasellhauf judging a music show, you know it's got to be jank now.

[noddy557]

does anyone know the song playing in the background from about 1:23 ?

[mrmajorfail1]

@noddy557 isnt it the original?

[noddy557]

@mrmajorfail1 i'm fairly sure that's completely different to how the song goes.

[hahalufs9]

he should have won :/

[DoWn3y1994]

He has inspired me to learn this song, i will learn just as well as he has!

[KlickDraufBruder]

@DoWn3y1994 I had the same thought when I've heard this the first time.. ;)

[DoItWithADance]

[SoIErdUlykFreePins]

Guys shit n/s

[JamSpreadz]

I'm pretty sure I'm 25,000 of these views...

[everoneowesmemoney2]

Beautiful just beautiful. A no thrills performance it was just about his voice, thats the way it should always be.

[1381Max]

Autotune ?

[GreenFlyingFish]

@1381Max yeah sure for the Auditions of Britains Got Talent they used autotune, why not ? And the final is in playback X)

[1381Max]

@GreenFlyingFish Yeah ^^'

@xgoldsparkzx Irony ?

[wowjasonwow]

Should of won!

[XRebornXProductionsX]

LEGEND! SHOULD OF WON! <3

[SFGftw]

"I didn't expect much from you" That's horrible.

And why are people branding him "the next subo?" I don't see any reason to of judged him before he auditioned! Straight away after they chatted to him, I could tell he was such a down to earth and lovely man. Nobody knew what he was going to be like, but do we for ANY of the auditions? NO.

People should stop being so horrible about his looks, or what he's wearing! WHO CARES?

He's such a talented, lovely man who doesn't deserve to be judged.

[fly144bin944]

better then the original song!

[TylerDavey92]

Fantastic Voice ( Unique ). Good for him i hope he goes far :)

[theaman3322]

amazing 

[theaman3322]

man your good 

[rockandrolleracdc]

He should have won

[elliemae11698]

he's amazing!,+ i think amanda + michael where quite rude at the beginning, just cus' he was wearing a tracksuit?, don't judge someone if you don;t know them:L.

[smntsHD]

[ThePrincesskt]

"Wow!" Probably the best reaction to Michael Collings in the world. Just "wow!" xx

[Jennk93]
