John Shelton Condolences for the loss of your Grandson. As the singer/songwriter/father of a 5 year old myself, I can just imagine how hard it must have been. You can hear the personal therapy in his words, and his voice. Moving. All the best to you, Johnny and the family from Canada.
Johnny is one of my good friends and this is exactly what he needed was a positive with the negative he's been through. I'm proud of you sir and am so glad you finally got your chance to let it out.
He was amazing and I loved every minute of it. He has an amazing voice and I'm sure he will go far. I'm so sorry for his loss. I know time doesn't heal nothing but I hope it gets easier. It's a shame all these negative comments. But he has my support 100% god bless you all.
Marion Boineau III his son is going to be so proud watching this from the heavens.. and you and all of johnny's friends must be closed to him and help him so johnny will be proud for you.. that's love..please give him a big hug from me when you see him..hope to meet him someday to do it for myself
Marion Boineau III me and my wife watched him audition and his song was very touching, we loved it...and sry that he had to go through such a terrible tragedy...wish him all the best!
A woman that loses her husband is called a widow, a man that loses his wife is called a widower and a child that loses his parents is called an orphan, but there is no word for a parent that lose their children which shows how huge the loss was. I'm really sorry for your loss Johnny Shelton, there's a saying in Islam about ones who die really young and is that they go to heaven like a bird, regardless of the parents' beliefs. He's in heaven living a better life, better than the shithole we're living in now.
+Majed There is a word for a parent who loses a child, the word is "Broken" I know, I lost my own son many years ago. The loss of a child breaks you, in every way you could imagine.
I lost my son in February. Although he was 34 the loss of a child is so heartbreaking. Your song is truly heart touching. God Bless You. You know the words that I feel.
hey man sorry about what happened but i gotta say that song touched me deeply and it was emotional. straight 🔥🔥 keep it up man, you got good things to come across
That's a very touching song. I'm so sorry for your loss Johnny Shelton. No one should loose there child. I can imagine how difficult this must be for a parent, I'm a father myself. Hope you'll find new strength in your music and the good memories of your little boy.
Rest in little Preston. Your battle is over now buddy. We love you. Even though some of us have never met you, we never got the honor to meet you, we still love you and your daddy is doing great things for you bud. Go on Johnny!! Sing that for Preston!
We only had 4 weeks to physically love our Son Jimi. 24 years later there's not a day goes by that we don't think about him, still love him. Those lyrics are special, not just for his own Son but for all our lost children out there. RIP little ones.
Just watched this on TV. WOW!!! So powerful, moving and heartfelt. As we all felt your pain and love within this song. Thanks for sharing and I wish the best for this man.
+zainati shasha I lost my mother in 2012 so I can relate to you there zainati. While Johnny was singing his song I kept thinking of mum and how much I miss her still to this day and wish she was back. :(

As a cancer survivor who has lost virtually all my loved ones to cancer I can say it is easy to become emotionally numb. And then he had to go and sing this.
should not have gotten eliminated, favourite act in all of agt ever!! please keep on going with your music career you will go far in life !! your son would be so proud. Godbless !
Kricketjr910 yeah because everyone has the same local station where you live, and has the same time zone..... you couldn't be any less speciffic. not saying im wanting to watch it on t.v but god that comment was dumb
Superredhawk444 he has a channel on here, go subscribe he does a lot of covers but he has originals too. it's good listening plus to know how much his music means to him is a good bit.
Yes, you can. Go with your cellphone to youtube. Grab this link and then you go to google and type 'mp3 youtube download'. You put the link in it, download it and you have this number on your mobile.
This has to be by far the most touching, beautiful and emotional song that i have ever heard. It has become my favourite song. This song touched my heart, it pulled my heart strings and I will never forget it. RIP to your handsome son. I hope he rests in eternal peace. Wherever he is, he knows that his father loves and adores him. Stay Strong Johnny Shelton. God is with you always. Much love all the way from Durban South Africa.
Gods. I Love this song. I had my 1st baby when I was 15&a year after my daughter I had twin boys, but I can relate to losing your baby. My daughter passed away February 8th, 2011 of spontaneous pneumothorax. She was a severe cased patient&immediately taken in for surgery. During surgery she had a vessel erupt&internally bleed into her own lungs. She was 2 when she died. Shelton's song for his son says so much of what I want to say to my own daughter... Mommy Loves You babygirl
I was very young. I was mortified realizing I was pregnant but I could not abort this growing little life that was half me. So young or not my babies daddy&I made the choice to own up to our responsibility. An I never regretted doing it.
Exposed because:spontaneous pneumothorax is a illness that u get by taken a drug called borixilus pine unless u took drugs when pregnet or she took drugs dont mess around like that cause people do suffer from it and so does their family member's. 😢
Alex Lee don't abuse a grieving mother like this unless you know what you're talking about, ignorant person. Anyone can have a spontaneous pneumothorax at any time and there are multiple causes. In laymens terms a pneumothorax is a collapsed lung; I hope I don't have to explain to you what spontaneous means. Please don't comment on something like this until you have researched your statement as you could cause unnecessary hurt. My knowledge comes from my career as a paramedic, before you question it.
This man and his song is so amazing. It touched my heart. I cried from the time he said he lost his son till the end. I hope he makes it all the way. He truly has a big heart and I will support him all the way. May God bless you and your son is waging over you. That's love. 😘❤
As a father myself, I cannot begin to imagine the pain this man must have felt after losing his son. I commend Johnny Shelton on his bravery and courage for getting up on the stage and sharing his story with the world. I also want to thank him for putting my life into perspective for me. Johnny Shelton, I love you man.
I'm thankful that I heard this as a father bc I appreciated every word of this song. Very moving and inspirational! Good job in expressing your story thru music
I lost my papa(grandfather) to Alzheimer's and this is such a touching song it made me think of him and cry. Just remember if you ever lose someone you love remember they are always with you even though you cant see them. :)
I'm keeping my eye on this artist hes amazing and the America would be fools not to keep him on. He wrote this amazing song and sang it perfect, just imagine what other songs hes got to offer.
I feel your pain man I lost my mother 3 months ago to esophagus cancer. we were best friends, and she never ever to me she had cancer. The day I found out I was scared and sad. The tumor was 3 inches wide, and it was starving her. I arrived the twenty minutes too late and I will never Forget how important time is with the ones you love. The only things I can do now is drink to forget, but the more I drink the harder it gets R.I.P Linda Higgins I'LL SEE YOU IN A COUPLE OF YEARS MOM I LOVE YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH
Beside his tragic story his is a good singer..... i mean its hard to play both guitar and sing at the same time, but than hold back tears long enough to sing. Also making songs are not easy (many of the popular musicians have song writers). That is a true musician!
I live in Brazil and I have 2 small children and barbara miguel, but when I heard this guy singing this beautiful song que 's love felt an impact confess that I was very moved by the beautiful fatigue and also the history of his life, believe u are already champions good luck!
Iv watched all this types of shows front to back over and over out of the the years and to this date. Johnny is the best performance I ever seen on all these Shows
I like how everyone was in awe when he said that the song for his son but when he told them that he had lost him, they were all upset. I love this song, it's so true and it songs the love from parents.
Truly inspirational! There is nothing as important in this world as love. I wish everyone in this world new that. To many people in this world believe money, possessions and what they look like are the most important things in life. No so. LOVE, FAMILY and FIRENDS, that is what is important in life.
The loss of a child seems like it would be unbearable. But you can see the strength that a child can give you in that song. Nothing can ever match up to the love you learn from your child. That little boy must be so proud of his Daddy.
I have a beautiful happy 5 year old son I'm so sad for your loss it's a beautiful song and I'm a big grown man and I cried hearing this I can't stop hugging my son after hearing this .I'm sure your son is so proud wish you the best in life .
Gog Bless you Johnny, stay strong for your son, become in your life what you wished for him. I can't imagine what strength it took for you to take the stage. I'm sure through my faith that you will hold your son again.
im so sorry about your child brother johnny !! but you have a talent!! absolutely stunning voice !! amazing of course !! god bless you !! and i know its hard to lose a child !! i really feel your pain !!
Johnny Shelton god bless you and your family I can't imagine what u went through I know how deep the love for your son is just think that one day we will all b able to see the ones we love so much again. we can only thank the man upstairs for that glory. God bless ur soul and all prayers go out to your baby boy
The actual song title is "THAT'S LOVE". Johnny is my son and needs your support going into the next rounds!

csgrambauer we both lost a parent huh..
As a cancer survivor who has lost virtually all my loved ones to cancer I can say it is easy to become emotionally numb. And then he had to go and sing this.
It's true, as bad as this world is, it doesn't need anymore hate..

Beside his tragic story his is a good singer..... i mean its hard to play both guitar and sing at the same time, but than hold back tears long enough to sing. Also making songs are not easy (many of the popular musicians have song writers). That is a true musician!
The difference in performance and life experience combined with the supernatural gifting of storytelling in music was exhibited in full color here.
I live in Brazil and I have 2 small children and barbara miguel, but when I heard this guy singing this beautiful song que 's love felt an impact confess that I was very moved by the beautiful fatigue and also the history of his life, believe u are already champions good luck!
This song tho. This song is great brought tears to my eye's. This is great excellent succeed.

The loss of a child seems like it would be unbearable. But you can see the strength that a child can give you in that song. Nothing can ever match up to the love you learn from your child. That little boy must be so proud of his Daddy.
