Black guy singing Randy Travis

[Drummerhb]

Man I don't know why, but I love hearing brothers singing country. Nice job man.

[AmericanIdolDreams]

I love it . You're very very talented. I think if you keep training your voice you could go very far. Don't give up and keep posting videos! :)

[miken23barnett]

Good job bro...

[jjtheslayer69]

he can sing

hes just being shy XD

all black southerners can sing

[daveb741]

I believe you have what it takes my friend. You sound a little nervous but that's normal. The voice is good and strong. Keep it up and don't worry too much about it.

[KLUNKET]

I have a studio near Pittsburgh, I think you could be a good singer if you had a little more confidence. I can tell that music means something to you, and that will come across in the studio. If you ever get over my way, drop me a line, be happy to let you try some recording. One thing I was curious though- why is it such a big deal "a black guy singing country". You just a man, color dont have nothing to do with anything. Music is about heart- not color. Like I said, contact me sometime!

[jjtheslayer69]

randy travis is the shit, i realy dont care for country cause it promotes ignorance,christianity, and to strong of a right wing bias

but randy sings so good it makes upf for it, fuck toby keith though

[story6755]

Way to go! you are good.. we need more black people to sing country. Now get on American Idol or head for Nashville soon! Keep it up.... you do better than most while people and you have no music to back you up and it is hard to sing without music.

[daudization]

trying its good but Honestly Randy was unique So! Just change to choose ! Anyone other one will do! Joe will be good idea or Enrique Iglesias

[GreatBlueKnight]

BLACK DUDE SINGING!

THANK YOU INTERNET!!!!!

[stelbl]

sing like you can... stop worring about the damn camrea and sing that shit boy

[elmolegs]

@stelbl this is one of the funniest comments I have ever receive I am laughing so dang hard right about now lol lol

[7667maverick]

country rocks i don't know how people listen to that rap crap

[51LAY]

Great voice man! you sound a little like Charlie Pride a great black country singer. You should YouTube him!, but I got to admit the way you keep looking over your shoulder it looks as if you don't want the brothers out side your window to hear you singing country.LOL I'm just kidding with you. keep up the good work and you'll build up that confidence! Good luck man!

[MrOrangeman89]

Man you kinda sound like Anthony Hamilton. Props brother

[mindsmacktori]

good but sing from the heart man(:

[sexyyYELLOW01]

uur ok but uu need more cofidence kk

[musiclover9679]

dude you r very good

[babylove198908]

you did really great. i could also tell you were unsure of yourself and nervous. with that voice you aint got nothing to be nervous about. dont let no one bring you down just believe you are great and it will show. :) keep it up

[Shaolinsnake66]

Great song, but I can tell you lack some confidence. Sing from your heart and don't let anybody bring you down. Country music is just southern gospel with some twang guitar.

[elmolegs]

@Shaolinsnake66 thank you I think this is one of the first cover videos I did after I did this one I started another youtube channel of just me singing which reminds me I need to do a new vid

[dominationiskey]

thts good but if u had the music youd do better but good add me as a friend plz;)

[MrCoolfuzzyclayton90]

[builtblack]

[jourdiebby]

[bugahabuc]

Potential.

You seemed nervous.

Work on it a bit and you should be stellar.

Good work.

[timmoore8462]

Learn the lyrics better then sing it from knowing them, but over all good job man.

[johnnyhardmember1984]

i loved it now you gotta learn to strum a few chords while you sing!

[johnnyhardmember1984]

i loved watching you sing this song, you gotta learn to play the guitar and sing and you will be awesome! message me if you ever need tips on playing guitar : )

[gabriel87077]

hes singing to picking cotten for his master

[TheCountryboy1988]

u have a really good voice man keep singing i look forward to see n u on american idol or cmt.

[kathy19561]

i think u did good. thanks for sharing

[blackpeetie]

are you crining?

[tomps43]

sing it put your heart into it, I think you have great potential

[elmolegs]

@tomps43 I've had a lot of bad comments lately so this is nice thank you

[TheDrugtopia]

lil nervous but wow great havnt heard a voice like that in awile

[DizzeeKyle]

Was under the impression that you were slightly nervous here. Still, not bad. Theres potential I reckon, definitely

[elmolegs]

a lot of people say they got the feeling that i was nervous I don't know i may have been its been a while since i made the vid but I'm glad ya'll seem to like it I'm not trying to get to Nashville or anything lol lol lol

[ljpmusic09]

You've got a very good voice! Country and Blues have the same mother. Anthony Hamiliton type.

[VirgoDar]

I can tell you didn't know any of the words by heart but you have great INSTINCTS. You know the song so now you have to LEARN it. Once you know the words you won't be half as nervous and you will be twice as good...even though this was already good.

[Penguins95268771]

i could see you where real nervous you should know you did an awesome job keep it up great job.

[waikatoref]

randy travis is talent i agree but thats not bad man

[brndn43]

[elmolegs]

Randy Travis is great I do him no justice :-)

[TheRonCox]

Keep up the good work!

[TheDSchick06]

[elmolegs]

Thank You

[antiyouthie]

Nice digs man, keep it up post more

i can send you a shirt if you need one though

keep it up

[oriolesfan2323]

good song, i think you did a pretty good job. you need some music to go along with it though, it just sounds weird with no music accompaniment

[lance007lance]

Quite good actually. Better with an instrument backing though. Good voice for singing folk music too.

[jaamman]

Keep it up, I dig it...post another screw the haters!!

[elmolegs]

[kntjason]

clearly this wasn't the right song for you. that's the bad. now, for the good... you need to post a song singing a anthony hamilton song. i hear a lot of similarities between the two of you.

[elmolegs]

"Clearly"...hmmm I think I have more positive comments then negative but everyone is entitled to their opinion I'm not a real fan of anthony hamilton and I don't know any of his songs I've heard one or two but I don't really know them thanks for your comment

[Mr031778]

[Richmotr]

Terrible. Leave this shit to the white man.

[AsphaltCowboy57]

You have a beautiful voice and it would be a blessing to all of us if you continue to sing for us. I loved it. Please don't be discouraged by youtubers. They are professional haters.

[TheSandersa]

love this song buddy,

peace out POS

[CruiseMaster78]

great job,black people can sing good just as white people can. you have a great voice for country music. keep it up man.

[robinc211]

put a little more "country" in it and you've got a pretty good version goin.

[elmolegs]

Thank you for your comment I know exactly what you mean by "country" and I will try to take your suggestion into consideration

[DoomNationReady]

you know what man. i'm am fucking extremely impressed cuz nobody ive ever met could sound this close to randy as you can dude you should try out for american idol. Dont ever let anyone tell you different and dont let them break you down.......much love man..........juan

[elmolegs]

Thank you for your comment I'm glad that you liked my vid some people like it some people don't i'm glad that you did and you gave such a awesome comment right on dude (did i say right on and dude.....lol)

[JerZhotboi]

You can SANG !!!!!! Dont let n e one tell u different!! Good Job!! U aint no THUMES88 but dats only cuz I LUVS me sum him LoL... Good Job!!!

[cowboyup899]

Hey man, why do you seem so nervous? It sounds good. I think that more black folk should sing country... Don't get me wrong, I'm not a real big fan of Cowboy Troy but thats cause of his music not color. Keep up the good work.

[countryboy4life22]

good job man just a lil more practice and ull be good

[daytonafuntim]

nice nice job. Alittle more tempo with the lyrics and I'd say we have another Cowboy Troy on our hands =)

[cherry8605]

i admire your bravery for singing a song that is virtually untouched territory for most black people. you did really good man, and your deserve even more credit for singing a capella. kudos

[hotrodgrafics]

Good job buddy! Keep it up... Keep puttin it out there, never be ashamed of havin the balls to put yourself out there...

[rcoleman477]

Good voice but work on the timing. But maybe that makes it your version.  Any do not ever be aplogetic about getting yourself out there on a medium like this use your freedome man!!!

[nubaddict]

did good but put shirt on lol

[elmolegs]

everyone always talks about how i need to wear a shirt kinda makes me a bit blue but anyway thanks for the comment

[rivioni]

You did very good with this. Keep up the good work. My only advice is look into the camera while your singing. Put a little more soul into it and a little less pause between sentences, and you'll be ready for american idol

[elmolegs]

oh my gosh thank u

[tastic93]

nice voice =D for sure

[Staples7]

you were made for the theater. :]

[elmolegs]
