WTG MICHAEL!

[moseseseseses]

The boy is Ray Charles made over and beyond. This boy's voice and talent is going to sweep the nation, now that he is getting the exposure that he needs, on Americas God talent show. He is going to put Mississippi on the map..  We are proud of you Michael, and remember your grandparents son, they love you, and they have been there for you when no one else was. You will be a very wealthy man someday, please don't get caught up in drug abuse like so many others have, stay clean and perform on.

I agree, has music become so deluted with garbage that people are blind to recognise musical geniuos when it slaps them in the face?

Just checked on amazon -seems Jones has over 700 cds ,most rated 5 stars so maybe we are missing something :) I prefer Travis Tritt myself - lots more bluesy Southern rock . My mom played Patsy Cline night and day so guess we love the music we grew up with but as time went on I also found Etta , Aretha ,Otis , Little Walter , so many more greats . And now Michael is right up there with those icons - cannot get enough of this guy !

@Rndy09

Do you live in Mississippi ? Seems like you are a major fan of this guy and with good reason, It would be amazing to see him live - when I get into an artist, I tend to go overboard and this guy is having that effect on me :) I am a " little old lady " ( lol) and this guy is the best I have heard in many years. I own over 500 cds and I would rate Michael in the top 10 of anyone I have ever heard in my lifetime .

@doogleandalix

lol yes very good points... I think the reason why George Jones is one of his influences is because he said he grew up in a country backround and I guess he used to listen to a lot of George and Travis Tritt growing up; as he got older he started listening to those true soul artists who then became his main influences. lol but i agree I wouldn't put George Jones in the same category as Etta, Aretha, and Otis, lol.

@Rndy09

Well, it may be more accurate that both Bolton and Grimm were inspired by Otis - Etta James may be the best female singer who ever walked the face of this earth with Aretha ( in her early years , singing the standards ) as a very close second . Personally, I would never put George Jones in a class with the other three but I know he has a HUGE fanbase for 50 years so who am I to say ? These are some pretty awesome people to have as musical role models .: )

@madelineshay

I saw Michael Bolton live 25 years ago when he was about Grimm's age and believe me ,there was plenty of soul and gut wrenching passion at that concert too : )

THis is not to discredit Grimm- I am " new" to hearing about him ( do not watch AGT ) but from the youtube clips, I agree that he is an outstanding talent and I would buy his music in a heartbeat .

@doogleandalix

He actually has never said that Michael Bolton was one of his influences, he always mentions Otis Redding, Etta James, Aretha Franklin, and George Jones as his biggest influences, lol, but I could definitely see why people who think that because he does cover ALOT of the same tunes as Bolton does.

@madelineshay

Michael Bolton in his prime ( he is 59 ! ) turned females into puddles . This guy is truly AMAZING but since he has done SO MANY Michael Bolton covers , I have to believe he was strongly influenced by him - both have a lot of talent .
