    If only the world were like this guy. Finding so much joy and meaning in life by just sitting out on a porch. Not worrying about all these material things and our petty problems that we think are huge obstacles. He probably loves his life more that a billionaire with a mansion, cars, and all sorts of women, and that's exactly how it should be.

    That's a real country voice and song right there. Not the pop country you hear on the radio.

    Its not about the voice, it's about the heart and he showed that!

    Kevin skinner is awesome. He goes out on stage and everyone laughs at him, then he blows them away with that perormance and ends up winning the show. He deserved to win and his debut single is awesome. Country music needs a new artist like him.

    "Its nice just to sit out at the porch you know, quiet, its a good place to gather all your thoughts. You know, even count the stars." a real down to earth guy with a heart, thank you kevin skinner for giving me hope in humantiy.

    I NEVER get tired of watching this video. They were all laughing at him. But after he started to sing, you couldn't hear a pin drop...his awesome voice blew them away!

  • @9sshty6
    @9sshty6 Před 14 lety

    wow........Kevin is the epitome of true humanity here.....simple and humble with deep compassion and emotion.......and sings from his soul as he has a huge affect on the audience........great job....

  • @priyankarap
    @priyankarap Před 14 lety

    This shows that you cannot measure someone the way he/she dress or look unless you go closer to the person feel within you. He sings great and his genuine attitude shows in his face.

    @rickyd4810 Před 11 lety

    It's been nearly four years now and Kevin is still a standout. He won the entire season with his intro and this short song. What followed in later weeks didn't even matter. I wish the producers had allowed him to play his finger style of guitar like he did the first week.

  • @WashfromCali

  • @marcsugi
    @marcsugi Před 11 lety

    Facing everyone who laugh at him, alone, in the center stage. Silenced the skeptics by winning their hearts with a genuine, big HEARTS. A humble, sincere, and a brave guy who make my eyes watery from the first moment he has been ridiculed.

  • @rioalbert23
    @rioalbert23 Před 14 lety

    He hypnotized people with the magic spell from his mouth. A humble soul that truly can speak thru song that stab directly to people heart. What a great singer....

  • @flipthecoin888
    @flipthecoin888 Před 14 lety

    I probably have seen this at least 50 times now (since this first came out) and I still cry every time I see this. It's just the combination of how down-to-earth he is, the lyrics of the song, the guitar!

  • @BlackyKerr
    @BlackyKerr Před 12 lety

    I love how he shuts everyone up when he starts singing. They're all laughing at him when they hear his accent. But they sure took him serious when he started singing. Excellent job.

    this is one of those truly glorious TV moments. this guy moved me. and it just goes to show you that things aren't always what they seem. all those ppl who laughed sure had an awakening when he began to sing. love him!!

  • @AnAngelSmiley01
    @AnAngelSmiley01 Před 14 lety +1

    I love auditions like these because it shows us to not judge a person by their appearance and education level. It's people like this who are so humble and they don't realize how good they are. It also shows us to not judge a person, we all can be cynical at times and be totally surprised once we realize they are actually good at singing, talent etc.

  • @willeemina
    @willeemina Před 14 lety

    OMG...I almost cry when he started to sing... s'how there's something so genuine, emotional n touchy w/ his performance and voice. Very humble...Kevin Skinner is a STAR****.

  • @Shableh
    @Shableh Před 14 lety

    You can tell how good he is, the audience is completely silent, listening to every single word he's saying. That can't be taught

  • @nevergrowedup
    @nevergrowedup Před 14 lety

    Truely Amazing - I don't even like country music but I loved Kevin's performance and what a beautiful amazing song as well. This is the difference when one sings from the heart and to please, not just for money. Thanxs Kevin. I wish you all the best in your life. Peace brother.

    My gf asked me if we could never go to bed mad at each other. I said of course and why. She said because if one of us didn't wake up then our last memories would be of angry and pain. So if tomorrow never comes i hope she knows how much i love her

  • @dlrdanny
    @dlrdanny Před 10 lety +7

    This guy reminds me of a young Johnny Cash, he might not be the greatest singer but who cares. He POORS his HEART out and everyone feels it..... that's music :-) I wish him the best :-)

    Kevin's final performance wasn't the best, however in my opinion, he had the most talent of all the contestants. His audition was fabulous. I don't even like country music but he captured me from the get go. Being a Kentucky native myself, watching him win made me proud. It just goes to show that you can't judge anyone based on their looks, their accent, or where they come from. There is brilliance throughout this great country! GREAT JOB KEV!

    When he sings he gives an expression in both his face, and in his voice where you can actually believe what he's singing. He's not just singing a song, He is telling a story. with pure heart and emotion. It's the singers like this that this world needs now-a-days. If we had more inspirational people like kevin skinner i think we'd be living in a better place

    The world needs to slow down.We are so exposed to so much that its damaging us and we dont know it.The reason that Kevin is such a genuine person is because he decided to live simple and stay away from all the corruption.Our kids are so exposed to so much and they want to grow up so fast.Im terrfied for my kids so when i hear this song i think of them.In my oppinion,The world would be a better place if we go back to the old days,and old ways.we should all strive to be more like Kevin Skinner.
