Grace VanderWaal you are so amazing, So humble, honest and sincere. You so deserved this award. Get used to em coming your way I see many more in your future.
this girl speaks the way that she sings and writes her songs - from her heart and soul. it's hard to believe she is still a child. Hats off to her parents, who must be amazing people.
From what I've seen she says she has a very strong, confident, successful father, and and an amazing mother who treats Grace like her favorite person in the world and a sister who would do anything for her. So she can just explore her feelings and not have anything to worry about.
Garden Girl Such a PURE soul! I just hope she doesn’t change that. And I kind of know it won’t happen, bc she has solid values, and seems to have a great family. We need to understand, it ALL starts with THE FAMILY, our kids don’t need THINGS, they need LOVE.
Totally agree! I'm 40 now and i rarely heard any award speech (if ever) as intelligent, eloquent and deep like that! Not talking about that this came off a 13 year old. Very special to say at least.
There seem to be quite a few old souls that pop up in the music industry every several years- Jackie Evancho, Grace Vanderwaal, and now- Angelina Jordan, who will likely eclipse both of her predecessors in short order. Her Million Miles single is absolutely incredible and heart wrenching.
I'm always amazed at how she can take a song that normally has drums backup vocals and all that, and kill it on an empty stage with just a ukulele and her voice.
And received a standing ovation from an astonished and appreciative crowd of the biggest stars in the industry! Then had them wiping away tears with a remarkably moving and unforgettable acceptance speech. Not bad for a 13 year old!!
Got me in tears when she said she didn't deserve the award but her parents and everyone else who worked with her did. What a pure and grateful soul. I am a fan now not only because of her musical talent but her character and personality.
Simon Cowell said, she is a pioneer in her own way. Her parents were concerned that she may not be progressing as young children would ,a lot of young kids of her age can identify with her songs, and range does not stop there , nonetheless, each song and her rendition ,uniquely hers ,unpretentious ,passionate , focus , just like she said ," speaking from her heart ," Now she is 15yrs old , her parents always by her side, like million of fans , always wish good angels be at your side too. All the best Grace VanderWaal.
Take this thirteen year old with her song, a stool, and a ukulele. No production or background and then put her on a stage in front of the music industries elite. What happens. Everything. A little girl that represents the true definition of music at its simplistic core. She is simply the meaning of music, simple, true to the point and profound in her interpretation. She is unique and one of a kind.
lol watched it very lucky group of fans thanks for answering my demands it is amazing that with here schedule that she took timer and preparations for those very lucky fans it shows her true humanity this world is needs more spirits like Grace
I love that Grace doesn't use super heavy makeup, wigs, or crazy outfits, she doesn't use crazy effects or filters in her songs, it's just beautiful music, just her voice singing inspiring songs. She is DEFINITELY the best artist (in my opinion)
@Kennedy Logan Morgan I agree, and yes, lol, I get it (But I think it's spelled graceful not to be that annoying grammar correcting person because I don't have perfect grammar, but yeah lol)
@@matildalansdowne4950 She is in a category of her own yes. I would say she is in the top 1% of singers who can actually sing live. All the others top performers don't sing live because they cant or use so much autotuned that deep down it's not there own voice.
Wow. Shes only 13, writing her songs, perfoming in award shows, won AGT. Im so impressed. 13 yr old me was just playing outside the house with friends.
Grace is now 15 and currently performing on her own National "Ur So Beautiful Tour". She is creating and introducing a passel of terrific new songs on her Tour. Check out her channel here czcams.com/channels/2qc1KM4zgRoOpysqVEaNbw.html for a truly wonderful ride! And search youtube for 'grace vanderwaal ur so beautiful tour' for some amazing video of her Tour performances!
That may have been the best acceptance speech I have EVER heard... By her not understanding why she is there, demonstrates why she is there... Need more people with this sense of humility and gratitude towards others... Stay sweet young lady!!
I so understand the old man thing!! I am 52 and haven't cried this much ever!! They are tears of happiness, because that little one speaks to my heart! She doesn't just sing for the little ones. She sings for us all!
Now this is REAL talent!!!! No artificial computer generated sound, no techno bullshit and the likes! Just a simple ukulele and a sweet voice!!!! Such an inspiration! God bless her!
Wow, she is more and more incredible. I like his taste for old movies, the 30 s. I like her choice of clothes, her hairstyle, the style she chose to receive her award. Her dress is beautiful and goes well with her eyes. I like his inventiveness, his intelligence. Tonight the profession has seen that she is not only a girl of 13 years but also and especially an exceptional woman ! What inspiration for so many young people ... what only young ? Thank you Mlle Grace !
Mutlu Sarıtaş For Kim, Kylie, Khloe, Kris, Kendall and Kourtney I can give you wayyyyy more, people that have done good or made art that kept/keeps the world going: Billie Eilish, Lady Gaga, David Bowie, Grace VanderWaal, Cyndi Lauper, Taylor Swift, Lizzo Adele, Whitney Houston, Aurora Aksnes, Amy Winehouse, Elton John, The Beatles, Queen, dodie, Patrick Martin, Sia, Ariana Grande, Beyoncé, Billy Joel, Buddy Holly, Madonna, ABBA, The Beach Boys, The Spice Girls, Barbra Streisand, Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, Willow Smith, Peter Paul and Mary. Some of them might not have been the hardest workers, and they’ve come from dozens of different generations and levels of success, but they have all contributed to life and made art for millions. That’s not even close to the entirety of the planet. Not ever activist, singer, writer, actor, director, Doctor, teacher, etc. Never focus only on the negative. That’s barely half of the picture.
Just when I think this young woman can't earn her name anymore, she takes it to the next level. That acceptance speech was among the best I've ever seen for any award, ever.
Wow qué es lo paso en la que te lo envío a las que no es la de los que es el día viernes de hoy si de una y me gustaría de saber que el destinatario del mensaje reenviado el domingo a las órdenes del de este año no me enviaste el destinatario del mensaje reenviado a mi madre que me ocurre que el día lunes en el de los que se ha llegado y que no se me olvidó de mi mamá que me ha llegado la factura del mes pasado me lo que me enviaste el correo electrónico y en 😘,
That´s the miracle of Grace ... she has remarkable access to music, language, speech melody, metaphors and poetry ... she´s extremely down to earth, modest, polite and compassionate ... and "so much more than this" The best music award speech I have ever heard
Very true the awareness in recent weeks have came in wake of the weinstein scandal that really opened the floodgates of sexual misconduct that has brought more ladies forward than it s ever been. I sincerely hope for Grace many folks will protect her from all the evil individuals that lust for sex.
Yup..Grace makes crying feel good. She has new songs coming out rapidly now..... 3 powerful new creations that have her fans in a frenzy! Start with her channel: czcams.com/channels/2qc1KM4zgRoOpysqVEaNbw.html and then search YT "grace vanderwaal USB tour" for some astonishing live performances in the last couple of days!!
Grace often talks about how nervous she is before she goes out on stage. But to get up in that room with just her voice, her ukelele and her words and to sing in front of them with no backup band to protect her. Well there is only one word for that. Fearless. Wow.
WHAT A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE NO BACKGROUND RECORDING . JUST GRACE AND HER JUKE AND PURE AMAZINGLY ENTERTAINING TALENT. CONGRATULATIONS GRACE .PS YOU DO DESERVE THIS AWARD LIKE NOBODY I CAN THINK OF
Which if you break it down, was probably not a speech, but more just opening her heart to everyone. The humility in her words were pretty moving. Just found out about her today, since I don't watch AGT. The more I see, the more of a fan I'm becoming. Hard to believe what all she can do already.
James Catchot welcome to the family. We are going watch this , soon to be legend, go from a funny skinny quirky little girl to becoming a force of undescribable beauty and grace. Her story will surely be made into a movie someday. I just hope it has a happy ending. I think Grace does have the right skills to handle all these drastic changes in her developing life. But she really seems to be way to young to understand what's happening to her. Soon(probably already) she will not be able to be in public without being surrounded by body-guards. Everyone she meets will already know practically everything there is to know about her. She continues to impress me every time I see something new from her, wether it be a new song, a speech, performance etc whatever it is. If Grace created it or spoke it, etc it will be impressive. How could so many talents be contained in her tiny little body. I am amazed by her constantly.
I think Kelly Clarkson was crying because she knows exactly how hard that "1st year" is after you've won a reality tv talent competition and all is not smooth sailing but a series of hard bumps and bruises of people trying to cut you up. Grace spoke so eloquently and you can see in her eyes the joy and also deep pain of this "1st year" and the gratefulness to the people who have helped her along the journey thus far. I hope she never listens to the negative, only allow the positive to keep driving her throughout this amazing journey in the path she is on now. Kids stars don't always have "happy lives"...I hope in the end she can say it was all worth it. Hoping for a great life and career for this kid! :)
The purest form of humanity I have seen in a very long time. Your parents raised you right. It is not just your music, your spirit is a gift. Be Blessed.
This is f.king amazing considering the fact that she is only using her ukelele and the silence is never awkward, its just smooth. not many artists can captivate the audience like this.
Im a grown man and it brought me to tears hearing her and im happy for her success she writes about things people take for granted and i love it things we think but dont say
All I can say is that she’s beautiful from the outside and more beautiful from the inside. She has such a lovely soul. I hope that girl in the future will grow up and still be the same grace as now. God really had blessed her with a gorgeous voice and a beautiful mind.
At the age of (almost!) 71yrs I must presume to be one of your most senior admirers. Your wonderful creative abilities in your music are so special--I would like to add my admiration to the rest of your admirers here. In addition, you have IMO a truly beautiful physical appearance and I would love to see you become a successful model for a great brand. Just keep going the way you are and all the best wishes for your continuing success! With all love.
She is so gracious and humble and she is just absolutely beautiful she has changed my world and I'm 61 years old and I love her music and her music helps me get through some of my trials suffer all those they gave her a thumbs down you guys are ugly haters and she doesn't deserve any negative ugly haters in her world it's bad enough what the world looks like right now 20/20 it's ugly but anyway Grace I love you I think you're great
Let alone that killer performance, but that speech, so well spoken and filled with genuine emotion. She was only 13 there, a kid but with such maturity.
She is such a happy little soul but when she sings there is so much emotion, tinged with a little sadness in her voice. Amazing for such a young lady. I hope she never changes her style. Such a great little performer.
Dear US Americans! This girl is awesome! Whoever dislikes them has no idea of good music. Be proud that you have such good young singers. I love her; their style and their music! Sorry for the google translation.
What an acceptance speech! Everyone is moved by this young lady with so much poise, and the Oxford dictionary definition for poise, is GRACE. She touches everyone and her name shines through her soul. GRACE.
As much as her talent is through the roof, I just have to admire how humble she is. Not rating herself, not accepting an award on her own behalf. She wrote her music BUT she truly shows who is behind her when she says it's for everyone but herself.Grace, U do deserve that award. Your talent and your personality will shine brightest.
One of the greatest clutch live performances in the history of music! Received a standing ovation from the folks who would know best... a room full of the biggest stars in the industry!!
Just discovered this young lady - wow! Forging her own path with her own style, music, songs - it not only takes great talent but also GREAT courage. I quickly realised that this lady is a smart, articulate, contemplative and aware person. She says - "It's so easy to look past it, and let it all go into a blur, and not even realise what's happening" - to me, that says it all - She is a VERY intelligent, self aware young lady. Please Grace - DON'T be told by ANYONE, what you should do or be - seek your own path; just be Grace Vanderwaal.
Have you listened to her album just the beginning yet particularly darkness keeps chasing me its mindblowing and to think she was 13 when she wrote and recorded it I do suggest the two bonus songs from the album lungs and hope for change
@@JamesThomas-dn6ee Hi James thanks for contacting me. I have only this day (08/feb/2019) discovered this brilliant young lady. I'll definitely follow up on your suggestions.
@@rogerreynolds2119 you are going to enjoy your grace journey the whole album is great not a bad song on it she is releasing new music soon subscribe to her channel there is alot of originals on there and some great covers
She is so beautiful and deserves to be recognized for her amazing musical talent. To be ushered in so young must be life changing and incredibly stressful. At 13 I was playing with Transformers, it's hard to comprehend the pressures of stardom when you yourself are developing as a person.
Incredible- a little girl with no band or backing track or dancers or showmanship- just her sitting and singing and holding millions in the palm of her hand with her incredible talent. So beautiful, graceful, eloquent and humble- wish young girls would look to a role model like her rather than those who make their mark on the music industry shaking their arses onstage.
You are beyond your years. It is like you are an adult in a small person's body. You speak with such wisdom as you do with your lyrics. Don't ever let Columbia change your voice or smooth it out. Your voice is unique with its raspy quality. Beautiful. People will not forget you. Don't lose your wonderful personality.'
It's not the first time a little girl has made this grown man tear up, but it has been a while. Probably the most genuine new entertainer of the past 20 years. Grace will change lives, unknowingly, but in certain.
You know, I just cried like a baby. I watched her from the first performance on America’s got talent, and see how far she’s come, it’s incredible. She just keeps maturing, and she doesn’t use any gimmicks to do so. She is still as pure as the day she performed first, I am proud proud fan. I still listen to all her new songs, and they’re still all stuck in my head. She deserves that award more than anyone else. If there was an angel on this earth, her name would be Grace Vanderwaal.
"And I don't deserve this, at all" The only thing, and I mean only thing our amazing Grace does not deserve, is all the hate she receives! She more than kind of, deserved this award. She 10,000% deserved it and then some!
That was one of if not the best acceptance speeches I have ever heard! This young woman is named so appropriately! Such Grace and maturity for being so young. I am a fan for life. It may just be me, but she reminds me of a young Joni Mitchell. God Bless you, Grace and may He protect you.
Grace Vanderwaal is truly an inspiring and very talented singersong writer. On top of that, she s very grateful, humble, funny and cares about her fellow human beings. That all with a positive attitude. I m not surprised that she makes me cry. She truly honours her name!
this girl speaks the way that she sings and writes her songs - from her heart and soul. it's hard to believe she is still a child. Hats off to her parents, who must be amazing people.
From what I've seen she says she has a very strong, confident, successful father, and and an amazing mother who treats Grace like her favorite person in the world and a sister who would do anything for her. So she can just explore her feelings and not have anything to worry about.
For a second I thought you were my mom but your last name is has two t ‘s and a “a”
Sally Patterson ikr
Right! She had everyone in the audience crying her words are effortlessly poetic and humble
It is really well said that the star is born
How can a tiny girl with just a ukulele and her voice bring me to tears?
Garden Girl 👧🏻
It's not the size of the girl, it's the size of the heart.
Garden Girl Such a PURE soul! I just hope she doesn’t change that. And I kind of know it won’t happen, bc she has solid values, and seems to have a great family. We need to understand, it ALL starts with THE FAMILY, our kids don’t need THINGS, they need LOVE.
Their rolling down my face right now😊. She's one of a kind💖💖
Music should make you feel something, and you can’t not feel when you hear her.
I love the rasp and the cracks in her voice, just beautiful
Tabitha Lavigne
It Makes Her Unique
Mostly the cracks
Can’t get enough of it! So good 😩
The cracks are where the light comes in.
that kinda makes her sound like sia when she cracks like that
Not just a great lyricists but a great speaker. She may be young, she may be small but she has a very wise and old soul.
Peter Grandahl I believe she is an old soul too, talented way beyond her years❤️
Totally agree! I'm 40 now and i rarely heard any award speech (if ever) as intelligent, eloquent and deep like that! Not talking about that this came off a 13 year old. Very special to say at least.
Down to earth ...
Not many people are like this anymore.
And she is only still growing up
There seem to be quite a few old souls that pop up in the music industry every several years- Jackie Evancho, Grace Vanderwaal, and now- Angelina Jordan, who will likely eclipse both of her predecessors in short order. Her Million Miles single is absolutely incredible and heart wrenching.
The fact that she was 13 and was able to bring the crowd to tears speaks volumes
Im ur 500th like and i agree shes amazing!
@@chichan4461 Some of the other award winners could take lessons from her on acceptance speeches...
Simon said she was going to be another Taylor Swift..........Well I think she's going to be "The one and only Grace Vanderwaal"
cobra47 USA (
*the next.. Now we have the one and only Taylor Swift AND the one and only Grace Vanderwaal both such incredible women.

Her single speech was better than Taylor Swift's entire career speech combined.
screw taylor swift, she is nothing more then a hack
I'm always amazed at how she can take a song that normally has drums backup vocals and all that, and kill it on an empty stage with just a ukulele and her voice.

Absolutely agree
I didnt feel like it was all prepared plus it was so natural damn
Me at the age of 19 would not know what to say at all, impressive girl

its called having parents that push their child in directions etc
That may have been the best acceptance speech I have EVER heard... By her not understanding why she is there, demonstrates why she is there... Need more people with this sense of humility and gratitude towards others...
Stay sweet young lady!!
Very well said, could not agree more! Hopefully she won’t lose her humility to the beast of fame and fortune as it shines brighter than her talent.
Amen
She is something you don't see very often. She is REAL
moonlight was soooo gorgeous but like,, her speech made me cry??

This girl displays more talent and class in one performance than most artists do in their entire career. Grace is the future of music.. period.
Hopefully they don't destroy or change her. She talked about the dark side of the business.
She grew up so fast omg!!!!!!!! She is gorgeous

incredible speach by a 13 year old she deserve every bit of the award. I am washing my face with tear.
Love💖, love💖, love💖 to you Grace from the Čech Republic🇨🇿.
No one can imitate that kind of voice.
She's a speaks like a song writer. Amazingly fluid and touching.
That´s the miracle of Grace ... she has remarkable access to music, language, speech melody, metaphors and poetry ... she´s extremely down to earth, modest, polite and compassionate ... and "so much more than this"
The best music award speech I have ever heard
She has a beautiful soul! The music industry needs her!
Definately there is one poerson that can speak for the voiceless.
Hopefully that industry won't ruin her.
g3nxc4d Probably not and unlikely. Everyone has different journeys in life. She will be a positive message for the industry
Not unlike Hollywood, the music industry is destructive... in many ways.
Very true the awareness in recent weeks have came in wake of the weinstein scandal that really opened the floodgates of sexual misconduct that has brought more ladies forward than it
s ever been. I sincerely hope for Grace many folks will protect her from all the evil individuals that lust for sex.
That's one of the most sincere speeches, such a smart and graceful young lady.
her performance gave me chills. how is she not famous
Can we please acknowledge the fact that she brought Kelly Clarkson to tears? Like wow. She is so amazing
Lol not a dry eye there or here for that matter
Ed Sheeran ducked under the table to hide his crying
What? When? I want to watch that
I have to make one more comment......."That is the most beautiful reward speech I have ever heard!
"This isn't mine, this is all of theirs"
GRACE is such a GREAT person
😌

I think Kelly Clarkson was crying because she knows exactly how hard that "1st year" is after you've won a reality tv talent competition and all is not smooth sailing but a series of hard bumps and bruises of people trying to cut you up. Grace spoke so eloquently and you can see in her eyes the joy and also deep pain of this "1st year" and the gratefulness to the people who have helped her along the journey thus far. I hope she never listens to the negative, only allow the positive to keep driving her throughout this amazing journey in the path she is on now. Kids stars don't always have "happy lives"...I hope in the end she can say it was all worth it. Hoping for a great life and career for this kid! :)
This comment is amazing, may God bless you.
I can see why she writes such beautiful songs ! Just listening to her speech! That was beautiful !
The purest form of humanity I have seen in a very long time. Your parents raised you right. It is not just your music, your spirit is a gift. Be Blessed.
What I love most about, Grace, she doesn't need a band or orchestra. Just a microphone and her ukulele! Finest music!
This is f.king amazing considering the fact that she is only using her ukelele and the silence is never awkward, its just smooth. not many artists can captivate the audience like this.
Lily is ikr
Her speech is just like her song! 👏🏻🙏 Just wow, what a beautiful human being. ❤️👍
Im a grown man and it brought me to tears hearing her and im happy for her success she writes about things people take for granted and i love it things we think but dont say
She had a whole Lotta famous people crying..wow
All I can say is that she’s beautiful from the outside and more beautiful from the inside. She has such a lovely soul. I hope that girl in the future will grow up and still be the same grace as now. God really had blessed her with a gorgeous voice and a beautiful mind.
At the age of (almost!) 71yrs I must presume to be one of your most senior admirers. Your wonderful creative abilities in your music are so special--I would like to add my admiration to the rest of your admirers here. In addition, you have IMO a truly beautiful physical appearance and I would love to see you become a successful model for a great brand. Just keep going the way you are and all the best wishes for your continuing success! With all love.
I am ahead of you sonny... I am almost 72.... lol
She is ahead of her age and so pure
I agree
She is so gracious and humble and she is just absolutely beautiful she has changed my world and I'm 61 years old and I love her music and her music helps me get through some of my trials suffer all those they gave her a thumbs down you guys are ugly haters and she doesn't deserve any negative ugly haters in her world it's bad enough what the world looks like right now 20/20 it's ugly but anyway Grace I love you I think you're great
Let alone that killer performance, but that speech, so well spoken and filled with genuine emotion. She was only 13 there, a kid but with such maturity.
She is such a happy little soul but when she sings there is so much emotion, tinged with a little sadness in her voice. Amazing for such a young lady. I hope she never changes her style. Such a great little performer.
Dear US Americans!
This girl is awesome! Whoever dislikes them has no idea of good music.
Be proud that you have such good young singers.
I love her; their style and their music!
Sorry for the google translation.
So angels do exist
What an acceptance speech! Everyone is moved by this young lady with so much poise, and the Oxford dictionary definition for poise, is GRACE. She touches everyone and her name shines through her soul. GRACE.
As much as her talent is through the roof, I just have to admire how humble she is. Not rating herself, not accepting an award on her own behalf. She wrote her music BUT she truly shows who is behind her when she says it's for everyone but herself.Grace, U do deserve that award. Your talent and your personality will shine brightest.
One of the greatest clutch live performances in the history of music! Received a standing ovation from the folks who would know best... a room full of the biggest stars in the industry!!
Just discovered this young lady - wow! Forging her own path with her own style, music, songs - it not only takes great talent but also GREAT courage. I quickly realised that this lady is a smart, articulate, contemplative and aware person. She says - "It's so easy to look past it, and let it all go into a blur, and not even realise what's happening" - to me, that says it all - She is a VERY intelligent, self aware young lady. Please Grace - DON'T be told by ANYONE, what you should do or be - seek your own path; just be Grace Vanderwaal.
Have you listened to her album just the beginning yet particularly darkness keeps chasing me its mindblowing and to think she was 13 when she wrote and recorded it I do suggest the two bonus songs from the album lungs and hope for change
@@JamesThomas-dn6ee Hi James thanks for contacting me. I have only this day (08/feb/2019) discovered this brilliant young lady. I'll definitely follow up on your suggestions.
@@rogerreynolds2119 you are going to enjoy your grace journey the whole album is great not a bad song on it she is releasing new music soon subscribe to her channel there is alot of originals on there and some great covers
She is so beautiful and deserves to be recognized for her amazing musical talent. To be ushered in so young must be life changing and incredibly stressful. At 13 I was playing with Transformers, it's hard to comprehend the pressures of stardom when you yourself are developing as a person.
Incredible- a little girl with no band or backing track or dancers or showmanship- just her sitting and singing and holding millions in the palm of her hand with her incredible talent. So beautiful, graceful, eloquent and humble- wish young girls would look to a role model like her rather than those who make their mark on the music industry shaking their arses onstage.
birdwithabrokenwing 100% spot on
Birdwith, wonder if Mary J Blige was sitting there thinking " I wonder if I could do that"
every time i hear and see grace idk i just tear up , everything abt her is so beautiful ;-;
Word, same here! She is just that wonderful!
You are beyond your years. It is like you are an adult in a small person's body. You speak with such wisdom as you do with your lyrics. Don't ever let Columbia change your voice or smooth it out. Your voice is unique with its raspy quality. Beautiful. People will not forget you. Don't lose your wonderful personality.'
It's not the first time a little girl has made this grown man tear up, but it has been a while. Probably the most genuine new entertainer of the past 20 years. Grace will change lives, unknowingly, but in certain.
That performance was just Grace. No backing track. Just her
This girl really lives up to her name. So humble.
I love grace
I STILL LOVE HOW QUIET THE CROWD IS AND THE ONLY FOCUS IS HER BEAUTIFUL VOICE!
Lol it's hard to make noise when you are trying to pick your jaw up off the floor while hearing such a pure talented artist like grace
ahh she's so talented and pretty! honestly, what an amazing human being.
This is probably one of very few CZcams videos I haven’t skipped one bit of
She not only a tremendous singer, but also appears to me to be a humble person. Wow I’m in awe of this young person.
You know, I just cried like a baby. I watched her from the first performance on America’s got talent, and see how far she’s come, it’s incredible. She just keeps maturing, and she doesn’t use any gimmicks to do so. She is still as pure as the day she performed first, I am proud proud fan. I still listen to all her new songs, and they’re still all stuck in my head. She deserves that award more than anyone else. If there was an angel on this earth, her name would be Grace Vanderwaal.
Wsqirur
most beautiful acceptance speech in my life. me and everyone in that room are feeling it !
She deserves this and even more than this
"And I don't deserve this, at all" The only thing, and I mean only thing our amazing Grace does not deserve, is all the hate she receives! She more than kind of, deserved this award. She 10,000% deserved it and then some!
Just 13.. I cant belive a kid can perform and gives speech like this.. Felt goosebumps all over my body
That was one of if not the best acceptance speeches I have ever heard! This young woman is named so appropriately! Such Grace and maturity for being so young. I am a fan for life. It may just be me, but she reminds me of a young Joni Mitchell. God Bless you, Grace and may He protect you.
When it comes to live performances and speaking in public they're opposites
Ikr
Thank goodness I came here. Faith in Humanity personified!
you made me cry ohhh. what a voice and a mature soul from a young girl...
“Grace” is not not just who she is but what she is.
I wish I could put a love next to your comment
Re-comment, nine months later, after watching this a hundred times. There is only one Grace Vanderwaal.
Grace Vanderwaal is truly an inspiring and very talented singersong writer. On top of that, she s very grateful, humble, funny and cares about her fellow human beings. That all with a positive attitude. I m not surprised that she makes me cry.
She truly honours her name!
Gob bless your way Grace
