    This guy is literally the best acapella-er out there on CZcams.
    While other a capella performers do still sound beautiful, they're not impressive because they still sound like they are saying words or spitting into the mic.
    But this guy mike.... His voice is almost completely indistinguishable from an actual real instrument!

    • @AshrZ
      @AshrZ Před 4 lety +12

      It's because he's really good at editing his voice, whereas other people don't use effects, that's why it sounds like they are spitting into the mic. I wouldn't say anyone who does acapella is bad at all because frankly, they are probably better than most of us viewers, but I still agree, Mike is really good at acapella :D I'm just letting you know, not tryna be a mean dude you know

      KaterinaTalantliva It's not photoshop, And it takes about 3 seconds to change a shirt in editing. It's literally pick the color of the shirt, pick the color you want it to be.

    Give me a second I
    I need to get my story straight
    My friends are in the bathroom
    Getting higher than the empire state
    My lover she's waiting for me
    Just across the bar
    My seat has been taken by some sunglasses
    Asking about a scar
    And I know I gave it to you months ago
    I know you're trying to forget
    But between the drinks and subtle things
    The holes in my apologies
    You know I'm trying hard to take it back
    So if by the time the bar closes
    And you feel like falling down
    I'll carry you home
    Tonight
    We are young
    So let's set the world on fire
    We can burn brighter
    Than the sun
    Now I know that I'm not all that you got
    I guess that I, I just thought maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
    But our friends are back
    So let's raise a toast
    Cause I found someone to carry me home
    Tonight
    We are young
    So let's set the world on fire
    We can burn brighter
    Than the sun
    Carry me home tonight
    Just carry me home tonight
    Carry me home tonight
    Just carry me home tonight
    The moon is on my side
    I have no reason to run
    So will someone come and carry me home tonight
    The angels never arrived
    But I can hear the choir
    So will someone come and carry me home
    Tonight
    We are young
    So let's set the world on fire
    We can burn brighter
    Than the sun
    So if by the time the bar closes
    And you feel like falling down
    I'll carry you home tonight

    I was about to comment on one of your other videos to do this song! You are truly amazing. You have a God given talent. You have helped me out. School is stressing me out beyond belief, and I feel like I've been getting depressed. Your music, even though most of them are covers, are really helping me deal through the day. Your family is really lucky to have you with them, and the rest of us are really lucky to hear you. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with the world, it really means a lot.
    Also I feel like your music gave me the confidence during my school musical audition today. You're not afraid to put videos out of you making a whole bunch of noises with your mouth (which are better noises I can make lol). It inspired me and I feel like I have a fighting change for a role I want in my school musical! All other auditions of mine have been a train wreck...
    This was kinda long, but I just want to say thank you once more.
