This man was my old Spanish teacher. He was kind, funny, and always entertained us with songs and fun clips to help us learn. Christina was my old PE teacher. She was kind and overall a great person. Best of luck to you Mr. Mauser. I wish you and your lovely children the best possible life you could have. 🙏❤️
Edit: thank you guys for all the support! I love you all sm and I’m glad I got to share a bit with you.
I go to Edison and we had a few ceremonies in honor of Christina Mauser. She has made such a significant impact on Huntington Beach and everywhere
I was not expecting him to teach Spanish (really felt an English vibe). So he could sing in both languages 💕
Very luck u have all history.....👍
You was very lucky to get him as your teacher. In our society, a teacher need like him.
I am crying hearing his story from Bangladesh
Aw they both were teachers thus sas
He didn't sing. He spoke to his wife through the song. He made it very personal for him and I felt that. He shared his grief, sadness, and loneliness.
Agreed.
I think so
Yes he did
That's what i felt...
He did. Made me cry. How awful.
Wasn't really an audition, he was getting a message to his wife. Well done sir, it was beautiful
He was singing to her. Hoping that microphone would reach the heavens. That's all that matters.❤
I'm not crying.
Wooow. Bumped into this audition yesterday afternoon. Cried a river. Went out in the evening and told the story and the video was uploaded. Dint think l had more tears, but l did. Just now l have been back to watch it and l am still crying. I wish you well Mr Mauser. Hope the kids are doing well and wish you the best. 🙏
I watched this with my wife and had no clue that I would have the same experience this man had shortly after. I remember she cried, said it was so sad, he was so hurt. I have never been able to watch this since she left us; she caught COVID and was gone four days later.
I wish things got better after such a crushing blow, but then 4 months later, our house caught fire; at least I got a chance to follow her advice, save my son, then grab the pictures and everything else we could replace.
I can tell you that you are just now going through this, it is hell, but it gets better with time, the hurt is no less, but you learn to live with it.
I'm so sorry for what you've been through. Stay strong!
So sorry to read that. God bless.
Chin up king. I firmly belive that you can conquer this. Life hits hard. But sometimes life gives back much more.
Soon enough you will rebuild your castle.
It's gonna be all right.
I am so sorry for your loss and everything that you and your son have been through. My heart and prayers go out to you and your son. Hang in there. As someone who has been through the grief of loosing a number of family members too soon, I know that grief can be overwhelming. Take it one day at a time. Sending you prayers and support.
God bless you and your family we never get over it but we do learn to live with it God will help you through we never know what's in store but at least you two got to experience watching Matt sing what you both enjoyed together you'll always remember that memories or something no man can steal or take away from you she'll always be with you in your heart and in your memories God bless my prayers are with you
Regardless of how he does in the competition, this guy just gave a masterclass in what it means to be a Dad. GO MATT!
Yes he did.
Dan you said a True Mouthful . Yes indeed
I do agree what you wrote
AMEN X 100!!!
@@ann-mariestauffer1760 pppp]]
God bless him and his three children. All I ever see is “Rest In Peace Kobe & GiGi” a lot of people fail to mention the other victims who also lost their lives that day. Remember them all.
czcams.com/video/wd5cwQ89npI/video.html
Exactly! Everyone that passed away during this terrible tragedy should be remembered...🌹
I was going to say the same. May they all Rest In Peace, may their families find comfort in their memory, and may they all find healing, peace, and happiness.
Great comment much respect. I said the same thing in my comment then I saw your comment. We honor the same message. God bless.
Yup I member that day it happened it was sad that they all lost their lives. Yes it was all that they would say Kobe Bryant n Gigi, I know alot of people were upset because they didn't mention the others names only as the passengers. Its sad either way you look at it cause they're no longer here, may our grandpa(GOD OUR CREATOR) n our dad(Jesus) up above bring them comfort n protection n strength to carry on.
It wasn't like an audition. To me, it sounded like he was talking directly to his wife, and I really felt that! That was way beyond a performance, but heart-wrenching. It was painful.
yes you said it
Yes painful..
You got it right, it made me cry. You can feel he really loved her 😢❤
Agree
You can tell he is so unbelievably broken but is trying his best for his children. I hope he finds happiness again.
His wife is looking down at him and their children, she’s really proud
Or she’s looking down rolling her eyes disapproving of him using her death as a crutch for getting on the show/become famous… he’s good but he is not that good.
@@RyanSmith-pg5kk damn! No sympathy at all!! 😂
@@RyanSmith-pg5kk I think if she was saved, she is worshipping our sweet Jesus. Not even thinking about earthly things.
@@WHSuperman2005 I agree, and she’s still looking down at her family screaming down at them “WWJD! Would He use my death as a crutch to become famous! Definitely not!”
@@RyanSmith-pg5kk there you go again 😭😐
"Let's get some ice-cream."
That was the most fatherly thing to do when celebrating success.
I own an Ice cream store. That treat would be on me.
I know, right?! Loved that.
🥺🙏🏼
I watched this audition when it aired. And I was stunned. Not only a great artist but an amazing person. When the world lost Kobe Bryant, Matt Mauser lost his world. I can't imagine his pain, nor would I wish it on anyone. I know as a child, losing a parent is arguably the toughest thing to go through.
I watched this more than 5 times but my tears keeps on coming 😭 the emotion and the love is overflowing 💖
it's really touching for sure
oh same here😥
Same here, I can’t avoid not to cry!
I couldn't stop crying.. People need to realize that it wasn't just Kobe that passed away that day.. RIP to your gorgeous wife and God bless you and your family ❤
Me to. God bless this family, it was a very sad day for all the families
Dee I said the same thing when the Crash happened. It is about all of them that was on that Helicopter. I sent out Condolences to all the Victims families 💐💐💐💐🌻🌻🌺🌺
Idk anyone who only remembers Kobe and his daughter. My first thought was "omg. I hope the other families are compensated, remembered, honored, and have access to counseling bc many lives were just lost and this is traffic for EVERYONE involved." The world is not heartless, it's not bad, and most people have compassion for others. Just bc the ignorant is so loud and the media focuses on that, it doesn't mean that's how life really is. There are so many amazing individuals who felt bad and prayed for all involved.
I’m still crying. So very tragic. They must all be remembered 💜❤️🧡💛💚💙
So touching....God bless you and your family
When he sang that song, he invited everyone listening, to hear him sing that to his wife. He wasn't singing for anyone...or to anyone...except her. He only was there to invite us to listen to him do that. We witnessed real love, not just from the heart, but from the soul...looks like.
This.
☝🏾!
You summed that up perfectly ❤️ I was honored to hear him sing to the love of his life!
I agree with you 💯
Yes
A soul-crushing tribute to his wife for as long as the Internet lives... I hope they're all okay.
I couldn't even imagine the pain this man is going through and his children. Prayers for you and your family
I know U Love ^ Miss Ur Wife I'm Glad She Told U She Loved U "Not Many People Get To Tell Their love One the Words " I Love U
I cried for him and his children. She is truly alive in them. They are their legacy. My heartfelt for the children. I will just pray for her soul.
pray for theirs. It is the ones that are left behind that need it most.
@@bethyngalw definitely will be praying for them
very well said. I am praying for Matt and his children
🥺🥺🥺😭
He brought a whole new level of meaning to this song.
Exactly. That's what I was thinking as I watched him sing. Truly touching...
Absolutely
Exactly what I said. The song is perfect for to his grief. This was him speaking directly to his wife. Amazing.
so true
I never knew how heartbreaking this song is until Matt Mauser sings it. Thank you for sharing a lovely soul with us in the late Mrs Mauser with your singing. RIP
Everyone's commenting on the emotion but let's not overlook the fact that he has a GORGEOUS voice - silky smooth, wonderful tone and to be able to control it through that level of emotion is a real pro performance! 💕
He went on that stage , not for anything else but to Honor his Wife and to convey a message that in every bump in Life , we should let go and move on ...... Kudos ! ....
Hey! Jesus loves u so much! Please repent before it's too late!
@@mariomncwabe5655 your right but you might consider a more personal approach then comments on CZcams videos. .
Move on but never let go 🥺 😭 always keep a piece of them in your heart (from experience)
No no. Wait. He said and I quote “ we don’t want this incident too define our lives. Yet he goes on NATIONAL TV to talk about it. Putting more salt in his wounds and his kids wounds BS
@@tkkcali how is him talking about it definining his life hes just talking about his experience
He did not sing for an audition.
He was talking to his wife 💔
Yes you are correct.
yes
He emotionally manipulated you for votes and sympathy
@@Anewevisual what an unfeeling asshat you are.. keep your insensitive LIES to yourself!
@@Anewevisual just stfu
That is a true husband, father, and overall strong and amazing person. He deserves the world and so do his children. He made his wife so happy and proud of him. Such a damn good person.
His answer to Simon’s question broke me 😞❤️. . . What a loving father. . Thank you for doing this Matt. You inspire ❤❤❤
It is a reminder that not just Kobe and Gianna died. Other families lost loved ones and their grief and pain is just as real. He’s a strong man and I can tell his wife was a beautiful soul. It was so special.
No vocal tricks, no gimmicks. Just an honest, heartfelt, and solid performance. This is what singing and conveying a message is all about.
Couldn't have said it better myself
I have heard this song a countless times.. never knew how super sad and heartbreaking it really meant...it made me cry every time i hear this.. thank you Matt... May God bless you and your children.. your wife is very blessed to have a loving husband !!!!
You coming back to me is against all odds…
Those words mean differently for the departed. Bless him.
The clarity in his voice is impeccable, I'm crying mate, that was beautiful.
I couldn’t kelp my tears 😭…
Seriously. What an incredible man.
He is a good man. A good father. I want to be adopted father this kind of man. I see ghe goodness of here children's
Indeed.
I cried through the whole song and after that!
Whose watching while crying with me... That was heart breaking, I'm soo touched..
Watching this makes me 😭
Crying while at work and at the reception, couldn't control my emotions 😭
I was I just watched this waiting for my daughter at the dentist. I cried. I cried.
I cried so hard
Me🥺🥺🥺❤❤
this is the kind of man I want to be, a loving husband, a great dad and humble person
Saw this when his audition first came out. Goosebumps. 100000x better than original, hands down. I’ve watched this many times over, just now thought of him again, & showed my 14yr old too. Goosebumps & tears. RIP Christina. You couldn’t ask for a more loving, selfless, dedicated, strong husband & father. They r in good hands. God bless
I cried seeing his children’s clapping, supporting their dad with a proud smile like they know his dad suffers more
.8
I believe they’re suffering the same.
Damn if this is what 51 looks like, I ain't afraid of growing old anymore.
Not every 51 will look like him u idiotic freak I don't no why are people being no neive aren't u guy's getting my point of view.
@@NagaJohnnysins hahaha woah harsh lmao
@@NagaJohnnysins pathetic
Same here bro age is number 🤣🤣🤣
@@NagaJohnnysins humor? can't find any in you bro.
He did it! He did it for himself, for his children, for his departed wife, and for his audience worldwide. 👍🇺🇸
Que música é aquele no final do vídeo, a música de fundo?
His version of Against All Odds gives me goosebumps…… his rendition is awesome… but heartbreaking 💔
I can’t stop crying. God bless him and his children.
Elena can you share some tissues ❤️
Same here
I'm so tired of heart breaking stories and average singers.... if you really have talent, keep it like the voice...
Why you cry? Did you hurt yourself? Hope you are ok
@@Songs-lr4wt I don't think you don't understand the power and purpose of music/singing. It's not just all technical. if someone is able to share their pain through their songs in a heartfelt way and so many could feel the pain; it's the real talent.
It's the hard clapping 👏 cheering from his babies for me.That's all that matters at the end of the day.May God strengthen him.
Such a beautiful audition.
Much love from🇺🇬🇺🇬
I don’t normally cry for auditions but this one really got me. Best of luck to this guy and to all of the families who lost people in that crash. 🙏🏽❤️
My friends cousin and aunt were also on that crash. This is such a sad story, but it shows that we need to acknowledge the others who lost their lives🥺❤
MY CONDOLENCES..
So sorry for your loss
I made sure I looked at all that were on that plane and learnt about them. I followed matts story since the crash.
My condolances
@@mizztia5303 Apparently you need to look at the mode of transportation as well.
"That plane"???
52 year old male. This brought me to tears. Everyone only remembers Kobe, not the other families this tragedy touched.
Dude great job, way to absolutely represent your wife and kids. Good luck here
How would we remember the other families when we didn't know them before the crash? Not that we don't care about the other people that died with Kobe but of course we would only remember Kobe and Gigi cause they were the only ones we knew before their death.
@@ballinboxer3676 dude chill. You replied to the wrong comment
@@eca2998 huh?
@@ballinboxer3676 who's Kobe?
@@cygnus-x stop trolling! go away mor----on
His voice is more than just a Talent. You can hear and feel the PAIN in his voice.
Nothing like a man who is strong enough to show emotions.
We often forget about all the other victims of the crash. I feel so bad for all the families that lost there loved ones that day.
Rest In Peace 🕊

Someone actually had enough sense to not only state that everyone who died that day deserves to be named, but actually named each one of them.
Thank you. My respects.
Exactly
When he looked at his children at the end, that was the face of a dad that is doing his best and it was a look like he was saying, I'm going to do what i can to make you proud, this is for you
I am so unbelievably sorry for your loss. But you got this Dad! Your kids can be and will be happy because they have you ❤️
Right after the first stanza of the song 🎶 My tears starting to drip.. Can’t stop crying 😭 I can feel the pain.. He really love he’s wife and his 3 kids .. God bless you Matt .. 😇
Rest In Peace to all of the people who died in that crash.
Except for the rapist. Stop being fake.
@@gleep1905 what rapist died in that helicopter ?
@@gleep1905 shut up. If you are referring to Kobe Bryant, then your just toxic and loves finding ways to say negative things to famous people. I’m not fake, if you look at my profile picture and channel, you will see I’m a huge basketball fan. You couldn’t have been any more wrong than that.

This man was my old Spanish teacher he was one of my favorite teachers and he would always sing to us and play games with us he was always so cheerful, this song made me so sad because I know them and my whole family feels that pain. love to his whole family ❤️
Woooowww
Salute to this man💪❤. It's not that easy to sing with a lump in your throat and a grief within your heart👏.
This is one of those deserving emotional stories on AGT. He's got the voice 🙌. I can't stop listening to this though I tear down each time 😭
me too😔😔
I want him to make a full cover to this song and put it on Apple Music 😭
Cant help my tears😢
I can’t stop crying. Really felt that. He was truly feeling the love for his wife. I love how he has showed up with the courage to do what he did. I wish him & his children all the best!
czcams.com/video/XHNzKi9qoNs/video.html
The same i can't stop crying!! It's so sad!!
I can't even imagine how hard it was for him to sing that song. After 15 years of marriage and 3 beautiful children, a year of grieving is just the beginning. No matter what happens, you know she is smiling down on them and that is truly all that matters.
I played this video over and over again and listen to every emotion of Matt! Touching …Inspiring …. moving……… I will never interpret this song ever the same again….
The song choice was brilliant. He actually gave meaning to the song and caught us all in that moment. It gave me goosebumps.
I tear up everytime I watch this. I feel his pain. It was so genuine. He was singing to his wife
The media almost always refers to them only as the "7 others" when we hear about that horrific helicopter crash. I appreciated hearing the story of Christina and her beautiful family, they should always be named so that we can remember their lives as well.
Ikr? It's so sad. They get completely overshadowed and treated like their deaths weren’t nearly as important.
Let's be honest there's alot of people here cried .
Edit : 1 k people cried.
I did. Cried a lot.
@@tonyo1788 💔
i did.
@@angiesarucam4233 💔
Yes :'(
Simon’s gift is not only finding talent but finding authenticity. His question at the end was answered in such an honest and open way. Just as emotional as the song. Well done Matt. From one father to another.
He is actually good, may he's wife's soul rest in peace, wich him and the the kids well,... He's a strong one 💪
This man really is strong and the son is trying his hardest to hold his emotions within himself & he’s hurting bad. Oldest is staying strong not only for the little one but for her dad. Baby doesn’t know nothing just knows her mom won’t be coming back. This is so sad I’m beyond happy for them for accomplishing things & living life to not forget to have fun & make memories happy. Grief is hard it won’t get better at all but it’ll get easier to control I’ve learned that. Happy for you sir! Keep it going for them

@Mal weston you don't gotta watch, keep it moving!
I already was crying , but reading your comment just made me ball my eyes out … very well said 🥺😭😔😔
I think we have found ourselves the AGT 2021 winner
The fact the accident happened right before the pandemic so his family had to face their grief while in quarantine makes me really sad. So happy to see him following his dream tho
So very very true
that sucks not being able to go out and vent
although to be fair the kids are young and probably wouldnt of gone anywhere anyways
My husband died 6 days before his wife. I dont know how he managed to make it so far thru that song. I'm crying so much right now. This pain is like no other and those lyrics are so on point with how it feels
I HOPE AND PRAY HE WINS IT ALL. I'M A GROWN MAN AND THIS MADE ME CRY. MY PRAYERS TO THE WHOLE FAMILY. GOD BLESS, GREAT JOB..
This is a type of man who will fight with all his might to protect his family.
Matt was my teacher back when he taught at our elementary school. We're all very tight knit in that community, with a small class size that is kinda forced to become family. He was the best kind of teacher to have around, & his wife Christina was the best form of support through my years K-12. They're the most genuine family. He brought his guitar into class EVERY day and played our worries away with fun songs in spanish. Christina was so special and it's still so hard for me to believe she was gone. She helped me through some of my darkest days in my developmental years.
I'm so happy to finally see him on a stage shining, where he truly belongs. To put a time on it, I'm 23 years old now and this was way BACK when i was in kindergarten! He is so deserving of this success, and I'm sending all my love and support to his family ❤️
🥹🥹🥰
Make me cry 🥺
What one hell of a man and father. He is a pillar of strength and faith. I sent this to my son's. His wife is with him always and so proud of him. I know you see and feel her in your kids. She must have been a remarkable woman. Bless you for having the courage to show your kids how to carry on with life and pursue their dreams. You are what I consider a hero. She is proud of you, you know.
The way he answers Simon's question shows that he is a good and responsible person..
I know this song is about separation, but rather due to a broken relationship.. Never thought it can be sung as expression of missing your loved one due to death.. And when the lyrics said "you're coming back to me is against all odds...", damn, it has deeper meanings than before...
@@imbatman9845 Nice reply Jack a$$
I thought so too. 😊
Your so right I just cried! I thought about my mom
True we are the same..same as what i understood
Right! I’ve always loved this song, but hearing his story, his voice, his emotions.. Omg! He definitely brought a new meaning to this song. I felt every single word. It’s like for a moment I felt his pain & also his love for his wife. He took us into his world, if only for a brief moment. Everyone doesn’t have the ability to do that.
When a grown man cries for his love, it hurts. It truly hurts. 😭😢😪🤧
Agreed
This definitely was a golden buzzer-worthy performance.
For that...u need cancer, sad story, poor, little bit talent all these things really goes well with golden buzzer recipe
This man is so strong. I mean, after the tragedy that stole 9 beautiful souls, the families have been so strong, and all of them fighting for their children: Vanessa and her girls, the Paytons, the Altobellis, Matt and his kids. I'm the #1 Kobe Bryant fan and I still can't get over this tragedy, today marking two years of that horrible day, and my heart will always be with these 9 angels and their families. He chose one of my favorite Mariah Carey songs and really touched me! God bless them, forever and always!
That was Phil Collins wym Mariah carey??
He plays in a local-band called Tijuana Dogs and also does Sinatra era music. He really is very talented, this was an emotional audition that didn’t show his range but you will see his talent in the next rounds.
I'm not singer or anything but tbh I can't sing and express words that fluently while I'm crying inside so yeah he's a very good singer.
I was thinking the same. I see him in top 5.
"Nobody talks about the other loss, the loss that happens within us. We lose people and things, but we also lose parts of ourselves. We grieve those missing parts too. We grieve them, and we grieve us. But I think losing those parts creates space. For newness. For understanding others’ hurts and welcoming them into our free spaces."
- Caroline George
Matt, you pour your heart out. Let me tell so something. 2020 sucks!
Your voice is amazing 🤩 and I hope you can sing the emotional songs like Story of life from 1D.
I'm am not reading that but go off u! Preach
True!!!!
Literally. 😍💕
I've heard this song a hundred times before but I only felt the lyrics this time, so emotional 💔
Oh I don't now how he could sing that song. So appropriate, sad but lovely. God bless him and the children to be the best after this great loss.
i cannot stop crying.. the last one that he can't control his emotions... that touched me so deep
Soon as he started the song ik what it was...and by the end was in awe of how far he made it. I surely wouldnt have
Me too I was crying before it even started.
@@souglas ikr? He must have practiced a lot to try to figure how to rein in his heart to get thru to the end. He almost made it, but I bet there were many, many times he didn't! 😢
.Totally enjoyed this song , it was emotion stirring and everything about the singer was pulling at your
This dude isn’t some business guy making bank, he’s a teacher, widow to a teacher, if anyone this year deserved a golden buzzer, he should definitely be one of them. Show’s about changing lives right?
yeah right.
I love that.. i fell for you Matt. Good luck.. life must go on.. more blessings to come on your way
Not many people get to feel the love u have for ur wife Awsom voice Thank U For BEING U Ur wife KNEW U were everything she knew she was love
KUDOS TO YOU MATT STAY STRONG
There were no golden buzzers left.
I know this was tremendously hard, emotionally, to sing. You did a tremendous job!
This wasn’t an audition!
It was a send off to his wife🕊
“We did it! Let’s go get some ice cream!” - 😭

Why is it that part hit me, too? 😭

I was crying from the time he said his wife died along with Kobe Bryant especially the end of the song. 😢 RIP to all who died from that crash 🙏🙏🙏 God Bless you Matt and your children🙏❤️
Tragedy most foul. May God comfort and keep him and his loving kids safe & take them through life's remaining journey!
He really shows how much he love and mis her too... And also do let know to all of us to live life beautiful before we disappear in this world... I like his manliness .
His situation brought a whole new meaning to this heartbreaking song of loss and regret.
A moment of silence for Christina Mauser🙏
Rip
I feel like the reason he did this was because a lot of people forget others died in that crash. He felt people forgot about his wife. And he just ensures no one will now.
Amen
🙏🙏🙏
Amen
He has a big heart and sang it out for his wife. This is amazing.
Matt, you pour your heart out. Let me tell so something. 2020 sucks!

My aunt left 2020.We are just left 3 people; me and my two siblings. Whenever I listen to this song,my tears😭 just flow endlessly.I have now understood the meaning of being an orphan😔😌
Best of luck to you, keep on living and don't give up
I know your pain, I'm an only child,. I lost my husband and both parents in 2012. I do have 2 son's but still feel lonely. I'm their Rock. I lost my BFF of 60 years in 2121 he was my friend and support. I've been on chemo over 12 years. I was supposed to be the one to die. Not my hubby or BFF.
🙏🙏🙏
I know this song from childhood but only now i felt every word of that song through your performance. May God give you strength and bless your family.
The excruciating internal pain this man faces every day must be soul crushing, but his love for his kids gives him the strength to continue on. This performance honestly moved me so hard and these things never move me. And although he will more than likely never see this.. Congratulations Matt, I think I speak for a lot of people in saying you are a great father and role model.
@Rye Bread this is about Matt's family no kobes
Amen!
Matt is a Crooner and being a musician he can rank with that of the qualities of Frank Sinatra, Steve Lawrence, Pat Boone and many more.
@Rye Bread maybe so but it's still not about him! This is about a man who lost his wife and is now a single parent trying to move on and raise his kids alone now
@Rye Bread stfu
This man always makes me cry, when he said " she would want us to have happy lives, I don't know if that's possible but I'm gonna try" I felt the tears... You can feel the love he has for his wife, and I know she is watching down on him every single second. He is a very strong man. God bless him and his children. I hope he wins
i read your comment at the same time i heard his voice saying the same thing :(
@@prmsocial it literally ripped my heart apart when he said that.
HOWIE, ALWAYS WELL SPOKEN. HIS WORDS EMPHASIZE AND CAPTURES MOMENTS LIKE THIS BETTER AND MAKE IT MORE MEANINGFUL
I really, really love this ,I lost my husband in 98 ,I keep listening to it over and over
I can’t imagine the pain he and his children have endured. I hope this audition gave them a small sense of peace. He did amazing. He gave his kids more than he possibly could ever imagine. They will always have the memory of their mom as well the memory of their dad singing on AGT. I wish them strength and continued comfort.
*AMEN*🙏💗✌(Prayers+Love+Peace) to them & ALL who are going through the loss of a Loved 1.
