  • NYC...so many beautiful memories...

  • KONY 2012

  • Indians 2B Jason Kipnis brought me here

  • @zerlax1 We are all Kipnises!

  • I hate Adele, but this is worth liking.

  • NYC has the best subway performers.

  • I wonder if he googled the lyrics

  • thank goodness a subway train didnt come by and interrupt him

  • Beautiful~

    

  • He sounds like my brother when taking a shower :P

  • I want to know who the guy is (giving the money) at the 1:56 mark.....good looking dude.. Kirk..Montreal, Canada

  • Aaaaand starting my Saturday with this video.

  • that's Damon C Scott from the group Storm Queen. Look up "Look right through by Storm Queen."

  • i think i watch this like 10 times a day, Beautiful.

  • amazing!!! honest from the soul....

  • Love the Storm Queen stuff, had no idea the singer was the same guy on this video.

  • He was also the voice behind two of the biggest dance tracks of the few years. Search "Storm Queen"

  • Beautiful. Absolutely amazing

  • I'll be the 44th dislike. I think he has a good singing voice and is an excellent drummer. I just don't like what he did with the song and the people sending threatening and rude comments to those who aren't fans of this video need to stop. Not liking a video doesn't make you a bad person and liking it doesn't give you license to be a jerk. Best of luck sir and I too think this video should be sent to Ellen.

  • Does he know he's online with over 500,000 views?

  • Adele looks so different without her makeup on; almost unrecognizable.

  • This sinks my heart... Wow! U got me in all the fuzzy, crying, goose bumps feelings at the same time!

  • Yeah the guy saved an elderly man who had fallen off a subway platform onto the tracks. less then a minute after he and the guy that had fallen had managed to get back onto the platform a train pulled into the subway. This guy's a hero.

  • I was reading on a different web site that this guy climbed down onto the train tracks to help someone who had fallen there and helped pull that person up. Pretty awesome.

  • anyone who hits dislike on this video should be shot & must live under a rock or something and not know music...

  • @cgradyy01 You're a jerk, people have the right to have different taste in music without being verbally assaulted.

  • I listen to this once every morning. It takes so much balls to do this in front of strangers. If he can do this, I can get up and go to class.

  • @JC94706 That's good to read. Go to class and prepare for your future.

  • it's people like this guy that still give me hope that you don't have to be rich and auto tuned to be looked at and recognized by the public.

  • damn... i was waiting for the guy leaning on the wall behind to give him the tip...

  • if i were there i would have gave him $20

  • Can't get enough of this guy.

  • HTF is it the 24th of Feb and i have just found this on the web!?

  • OMG I SAW HIM EVERYDAY WHEN I WAS GOING TO SCHOOL HE ON THE 6 LINE IN NYC … OMG HIS VOICE IS CRAZY AWESOME <3

  • I Loove This Guy!!

  • YO CHECK OUT

    STORM QUEEN'S "IT GOES ON" and "LOOK RIGHT THROUGH"

    even cooler than this!

  • Im feelin this! 

  • Send Ellen this video!!

  • @ffuuuucccckk i totalllly agree!

  • Wow amazing go see my video

  • this kind of makes me sad by a talented voice in a subway, he should have his own album

  • It pains me to see how someone so talented like this man only has the chance to share his voice in a subway, where there are other "artists" out there today who are known world-wide and are making so much money by using computers rather than their God-given talent in the process.

  • @lovindove27 Remember that even an audience of one...THE one, is far more valuable than a million. God-given indeed. The world is backwards. This we know, as you pointed out in your comment.

  • Your singing made me cry. Then I sent this link to my sister and friends. Everyone was so touched by your EXTREMELY TALENTED & TOUCHING rendition of this song that you brought tears to our eyes. You are a better singer than so many of the pop stars making millions today with digitally altered voices! We want you to be famous because YOU ARE THE REAL DEAL! YOU ARE WHAT MUSIC IS ALL ABOUT BABY!

  • I love his voice. c: 

  • can i give him a dollar thru the interwebz??

  • awesome....

  • I prefer this wonderful voice over Adele's...

  • amazing <3

  • How this video has 42 dislikes is beyond me.

  • Comment removed

  • @AnaKisst Trolls...

  • He's better than most of the covers on youtube, actually. And he probably doesn't even own a computer.

  • That was really amazing! I think I'm going to share that on my Tumblr® He wasn't "AMAZING" thought! But Indeed her was good!

  • he should be in X factor , american idol , or something... :)

  • I Watched This Video So Many Times .. He Is GOOD For Real

  • Comment removed

  • Woo! He gettin into it!

  • Who I like the Adele version but got give this guy props he's amazing he deserves some kind of singing contract

  • I love his verso=ion alot better than Adeles.

  • Damn hes good

  • ooo i want that cash in the bucket <3

  • is it wrong to like this more than the original... cuz i do...

  • Magnetic loves Storm Queen, Morgan Giest and the amazing voice of Damon C Scott

  • goose bumps over 9000!!!

  • He is better and sexyer than adele!

  • i get more into his version than i do adele...

  • Yes it was new York

  • New York most likely

  • Where was this?

  • omg. his vocals o.o

  • Hahahahahaha the guy with the black jacket against the wall makes me laugh (: hahahhaha!

  • Am I really the only person who noticed the compete smoke show that shows up behind him at 1:00!?!?!? Yoga pants, God's gift to man......oh and great video, I would enjoy listening to him live.

  • I also saw him this morning--what a nice and talented man! I'm with CrowleyBrothers: he sounds marvelous live. Go Damon!!

  • saw him this morning.. he sang chris brown's "she ain't you" as well as "someone like you" (long wait for the train HA)

    sounds even nicer live

  • i just thought all the time: " crowwwd give him your fuckin money!

  • his monologue at the end is pure fucking marvelous...the guts this guy has, when he sings with his eyes closed, he is in his element, you can see that nobody can fuck with him while on that state. And the audience's response at the ends was just fantastic. You see, for shit like this I like going on public transportation: 90% of the time it will be gray faces, bored and sleepy people coming from work, school, but every once in a while things like this happen..

  • LOve how he got louder and bettter when the first person put money in the cup

  • Man I would drop $100 up in that can

  • i just got a yeast infection.

  • man i woulda dropped at least 50 in that can

  • 00:01-01:04 I only liked certain parts, 01:05 to the end, I fell in love.

  • wooow

  • if he received a dollar a view imagine how much money he would get

  • 2:25 and after #EpicMoment

  • I actually don't like when people cover Adele but fuck that shit. THIS IS BRILLIANT.

  • 42 people never seen love

    

  • why is this guy singing on the streets for change. He has great talent, while so called judges of reality shows American Idol, X-Factor, The Voice should be looking elsewhere, where the real talent is, people that sing with heart and soul.............just my opion

  • AWESOME! SUPPORT THE STORM QUEEN! ;)

  • fantastic!

  • Richard Webber is here!!!!!!!!!!

  • His name is Damon C Scott, follow him on twitter @adescorner1 he is dope AF!

  • I totally agree, that was amazing!

  • i cant stop watching this !!!!! the 1st tyme i heard it i shed a tear ! Jus beautiful <3

  • Let me turn the lights on, cause I don't know where I am.

  • woah! got chills at 2:25

  • Storm Queen vocals he lays down are excellent as well.

  • wanna check Mr. Damon on some studio treatment?

    Storm Queen - It Goes On

  • Le pone mucho ritmo african power

  • I was there! on the other side of the tracks though.

  • Адель, це завжди круто! Ну і афро-американець теж не підкачав!

  • HIS NAME IS ADES!! FROM ADES CORNER!! GOD LUCK!!!

  • Simon Cowell's X-Factor is boring .. Cowell needs to bring on Internet sensations like this guy and others onto X-Factor; have them compete for biggest Internet singing sensation. So far this guy wins for me!

  • Omg I got emotional

  • when the congos come in.....that when shit gets deep....almost cried damn...

  • I can't stop watching this!

  • You can actually hear Damon sing on the STORM QUEEN records. They're even more amazing than this--check them out!

  • yeah storm queen - thanks Damon

  • wow!

  • I have heard so many guys try to sing Adele- Tyler Ward, Bryce Avenue and each time they sound forced and I hate it. Not this guy! Loved it!

  • Soul is something you have, or you don't. This guy was born with it.

  • get a job you scrounger

  • I hate ppl who stand there, watch entire performance, and at end leave without donating

  • I'm the lad in the background bopping his head (black top)........I'M FAMOUS.!!

    This performance was better live.. If i didn't just have enough for the train i'd give him money..<3 Brilliant

  • @PaDrAiC1990 Must have been an amazing experience to be right next to him while he was performing. This man has great talent. :)

  • Why this not on VEVO?

  • Beautiful. Heard him on "It goes on" by storm queen, slays every time.

  • This man sings on storm queen releases!! Incredible voice :))

  • Haters, go look at the dislike bar and then look down

  • Comment removed

  • Saw him yesterday - he was killing it again. Would like to hear him sing some other songs.

  • i wish I could be there to make a donation...amazing!!!

  • Wow. It's sad how the people with actual talent live on the streets, and the people with NO talent have millions.

  • I met Damon as I waited for the train on 86th street station last week. He is incredible. I was amazed at his voice and personality. He sang the song Dreams by Stevie Nix and he sang it so good I had goose pimples. I plan on asking him to record something for me and maybe we will all get rich and famous. Its actually worth a ride to 86st. station just to listen to the man perform.

  • OMG, no words!

  • Who is this guy?

    

  • This man is amazing.

  • Next man with a golden voice?

  • Now Videos like that makes me smile. Makes me proud to see some people that can't have the chance to get known for their talent. Someday he'll be known and apreciated !

  • This guy is great.

  • he has an incredible voice!!!! much better than many artists out there!!!

  • Nice , Nice ... Beautiful voice

  • I shuddered :O

  • I like how different he sings it at "never mind I'll find someone like you don't forget my I beg I remember you say"

    Really really good

  • Welcome to 2012, where 70% of videos are black borders.

  • I was there for this...that's incredible.

    What a small world!

  • he's like amazing

  • this guy deserves a chance a lot more than bieber!!!

  • black guys are the best

  • is New York?

  • Oh god!

    very good, such emotion in his song!

  • Better than Adele

  • 35 dislikes of guys who were singing at the same station at the same time and didnt get any donations because of him :P

  • @MrCueCool i dont think homeless people get on the internet that often
