Brian Justin Crum: Singer Captivates the Audience With Radiohead Cover - Reaction Video

[@gregsteele806]

That moment of stunned silence from the crowd at the end says everything about this performance.

[@patriciab8876]

I saw it live also. To me, that pause said "More! Please don't stop!"

[@agtcommenter9654]

Certainly cool but it’s an edit in production

[@jamesdesantis4537]

DramaSyd, check out Caitlin Koch renditions of Creep, Simple Man & Hello, among of many more, WoW !!!

[@Montrosesister12]

They were stunned stupid. His voice tazed thier asses.

[@JSloshooter]

Almost 5 years after his AGT show, this performance still makes my heart stop and takes my breath away! If you have not yet seen a version of this video with the judges' reactions, Simon and Mel gave the best I have ever heard on the show. You might want to search YT for the longer version including the judges. Geat reaction... again!

[@jayholland2632]

That silence at the end before the eruption says it all. He captivated that audience.

[@StacyRee]

I remember watching this back in 2016 and I watched it with my mouth hanging open, transfixed on the tv and ended up crying by the time it was over. 😭❤😭 Holy shitballs sums it up perfectly. Going to rewatch your reaction right now. 😍

[@Kerry0101]

Stacy H. Holy shitballs seems it is referencing Michael Bubble’ perhaps?

[@kimberlyellis7347]

When Brian Justin Crum entered AGT I fell in love with his voice and personally feel he should have won he’s so flipping talented. When he sang I don’t belong here I agreed he should have a recording contract. Thankfully he now does! ♥️

[@berlyn3014]

This is my favorite version of this song. No matter how many times I hear it, I still get goosebumps. My favorite part is that golden moment of silence at the end. Everyone was so mesmerized it took a moment for it to register. He was on America's got Talent and their all star version (forgot the official name). I think he should have won both but ended up losing both of them. But wow what a performer.

[@rachaelromine6024]

"Didn't know whether to clap or piss my pants" ....... ditto bruh, DITTO! This is my all time favorite performance on AGT ever and always recommend it to those who have become Pentaholics. Brian is friends with Scott and Mitch and did a collab with them as "Superfruit" following the devastating massacre at Pulse nightclub. They did a cover of Katy Perry's "Rise" that is as emotionally gripping as his Creep performance. It still pisses me off that he didn't win AGT that year and loss to a child ventriloquist ..... just sad. He MORE than deserved the win! I'd also recommend his audition piece "Somebody to Love"

[@lorettapierce8430]

dont believe he lost to Darci Lynn but to Grace Vanderwhal,,,l was very upset he only got 4th place

[@barbieme7443]

@@lorettapierce8430 I cant believe he was 4th either. I may be alone on this, but I dont get the fuss over Grace. Good, yes. Incredible, meh.

[@andrewpetesky1893]

@@barbieme7443 Yep, your alone :) While Brian is a massive singing talent...so much emotion. Grace wrote and performed 4 originals - all amazing and mind blowing at 12 years old. Rightfully so she won. Now if Brian wrote and performed creep then maybe a 50/50 split - both win.

[@yvettemaldonado3725]

Goosebumps and chills every time I see this 😍😍😍😍😍

[@danielneece6404]

Glad someone else reacted the way I did the first time I heard Brian. I’ve watched many reactions I like yours the best. God bless all.

[@davidallan6250]

Brian Justin crum first audition doing “ somebody to love” what a performance.

[@mshappyapple8663]

ALL his performances on that show were amazing! People are still wondering how it is that he didn't win.

[@shanaazabader1856]

Justin will forever be remembered by that performance.. Wow

[@anitamorgan366]

I love Brian Justin Crum, he is an incredible artist. Its great to see you adding these wonderful singers.

[@rowenanunn590]

Loved it when I watched the episode loved it now. Thank you ❣✌

[@beverlybrantley6611]

I love your reactions. Always look forward to swing your reactions .☺☺

[@PrincessLaMala1]

Phenomenal!!! Loved your reaction too!!! I felt it as well!

[@elenaHernandez-nu7fw]

I have been waiting for this. Your response made me laugh. I love Brian his back story made the song even more emotional. I have to give his mother an applause as well she was strong for him.

[@pambarab5506]

One of my all time favorite performances ever. He owned that stage!

[@jamesmcgee6689]

BEST REACTION EVER !!! HONEST, GRITTY, AND PRECEPTIVE.

[@mshappyapple8663]

Yours is, without a doubt, the BEST description of what he did. I laughed at it when you said you didn't know whether to applaud or piss your pants. SO TRUE!! He literally stunned everyone - you could have heard a pin drop there. Truly a talented man and very easy on the eyes too! TY for doing this. It just confirms what many of us think. He should have won that year, hands down!!

[@ArleneAdkinsZell]

Great reaction! Thank you for your honesty and love those facial expressions.

[@LittleWapiti]

He was also in another video you reviewed, RISE (Katy Perry Cover) by SUPERFRUIT, Mary Lambert, Brian Justin Crum, Mario Jose. He has an amazing voice

[@DramaSydETV]

i realized it after you said this lol!!

[@friedavanleiden2136]

He took all of us on a journey. Can listen to this forever 👏👏👏😍

[@eyestadi4]

I have to remind myself to breathe every single time. Paralyzing performance. Loved your reaction!!

[@thebravesoul]

BEAUTIFUL reaction 💜

[@yarasub]

man your comments are so spot on you got it

[@LS-xh9nz]

On a particularly bad day, one of the worst in my life, I heard this cover and it became anthem. Nothing’s changed years later. I’m glad to see his cover touched you as well.

[@mysoullovessoul558]

Loved watching you react to this piece of pure emotion. *chefs kiss*

[@MelaniePoparad]

Yeah! This was an outrageously amazing performance. Love it.

[@ruthschlesinger9259]

I'm SO glad I found your channel! Your reaction was EXACTLY how I felt when I heard this performance the 1st time. Thank you!

[@karenredding4649]

Sir you said it all. This is a God Given gift straight from Heaven ✝️💜💟

[@annlee2230]

Yep, that was a goodun !! I was in tears when I watched this when it was live. Yes, he drew me in and yanked my emotions out through my eyes in the form of tears.

[@billiemchone515]

His voice just kills me. What a spectacular performance!

[@lcbcreative]

I came to your channel for your Queen reactions and I'm subbing because of the wonderful way you express your love of music. BJC is a master at building dynamics in a song. Almost all of us have some type of emotional pain inside - this short performance feels like he is releasing every bit of his personal pain through his voice. He did a great job on Somebody to Love for his first audition, and he recently released a song I&U that wonderful also. Thanks for your reactions!

[@80srocker67]

Man he had me hanging on each note and that was incredible.

[@anessalyn1035]

If you get a chance watch the beginning interview. You will see why he chose this song. It will make you tear up.

[@EvansBrosRacing]

I did not know this song until maybe 8 years ago and loved it the first time I heard it . Since then I have heard lots of covers of it , but Brian's has to be number one , so far nobody has put the effort in that he did !

[@barbarawoods5706]

Amazing performance .

[@reddwine9441]

Ive played Brians song a hundred times. Im just captivated. Where is he today?

[@warrengore8685]

“And I am Telling You”. TONY AWARDS.

[@sumerfluffy]

Oh wow! He was great!

[@friedavanleiden2136]

Love your reaction on point 👊

[@kathleenkarsten5739]

He lured us in...and we let him! His performance was stunning! 😍 And your reaction, or lack thereof, said it all!

[@heinztitzer9992]

He is from outtaspace? Every time I hear this i am sitting here, not able to think anything. Only stunning. Speechless

[@NatalieLincolnSMSL]

Of all the reactions I have seen on this video you are the only one who seemed to end up breathless like I did...litterally breathless...loved your reaction I am now new sub thanks so much

[@Lookinforrealmusic]

Wow!!!!!

[@ewingwilderii9654]

Love your videos! You rock brother!

[@justjulie7866]

I was literally stunned!! It made me speechless.

[@thetorresons297]

I STILL cry. October 2020.

[@catherineel641]

That was beautiful to watch man... ❤️ I wept the first time I heard this,

[@margokent1624]

I think that’s the first time a reaction to Brian Crum’s version of Creep made me laugh. “I didn’t know whether to clap or piss my pants” EXACTLY! I think that summed it up. The absolute raw emotion he felt and put into the song is almost like an exorcism. You feel everything and absorb it, when the song ends it’s like a rush of endorphins. Amazing.

[@Kerry0101]

I watched your reaction only, crap, piss your pants, cry or all of the above simultaneously at once. Loved your reaction. Keep doing what your doing. Respect, total respect for you.

[@judymeeker2925]

Took me back to my school days when I never fit in. I felt his soul. His mom said he never fit in at school. 😢😭

[@MsNirual]

"Creep" is what I consider one of those stand and deliver song, meaning you had BETTER stand there and sing like this song is the only thing that will save your life and mine. A lot of singers make the mistake of thinking that just because it's a big song and you can hit the notes, this makes you a good singer. Nope!! Brian delivered on EVERY level. That's what I'm talking about right there.

[@dgodfrey3914]

Great reaction man.

[@daisybuchanan8205]

Boy am I glad I foun your channel !

[@peanut8400]

Stunning performance.

[@stacyflanigan3928]

Hands down the best reaction video I've ever seen! I think I've seen them all. You should give Matthias Nebel's rendition of Bon Jovi's Bed Of Roses from The Voice, Germany a listen. You will be amazed. Thank you for being so real!

[@chelleploenges4432]

G'day , loved your reaction, hes an amazing singer, holy shitballs Batman lol Chelle Adelaide Australia 😃🇦🇺

[@jimipurple123]

Always come back to this. It's a masterpiece

That silence for a half second after the song is golden!!!

Subscribed buddy, I like your reaction and perception of the performance

[@lindahayes7492]

Best of the day I love this guy

[@johnschultz7765]

"I have the feeling this thing is about to blow up." Oh, yeah, you so called it. And I could see you knew it was coming even before you said anything. Great reaction. What more could you have said anyway?

[@judithcure2255]

Thank you thank you thank you 💖

[@DramaSydETV]

you're welcome!

[@riaklein5285]

Brian touched my heart with this song because I feel myself like a creep. His freaking powerful voice comes to your heart and soul like an shooting arrow. It put me to tears and listen it over and over again. Another song you should listen that he is singing is SOMEBODY TO LOVE by QUEEN!!!! He is gay but I love this great guy with this gorgeous powerful voice that gives me chills and goose bumbs. Hearing him sing will make my day a little better and brighter.

[@dawn6320]

I realized I was holding my breath when I watched him. Lol

[@elenaHernandez-nu7fw]

I saw him two times this was his second one.I can't remember the first one. but this was amazing.Before he sang it he said he was going to but all his pain into it.When he was a kid he was teased because he was over weight and gay.His mother supported him and that's what got him through.

[@jodidavis1178]

Just found your channel. I love your reviews! I subscribed.

[@ZuzuGametime]

SO GLAD YOU DID THIS ONE!!! Just wanted to say it again, lol

[@lindahobster7480]

Best comment ever. Man you rock!

[@janetranslates]

You probably guessed this, but the lady in the audience that they kept focusing on is Brian Justin's mom. This is a great song. I like Radiohead's original performance and I like the Postmodern Jukebox version. But this one? I'm that girl at 3:26 from the moment this man opens his mouth until the crowd erupts.

[@toospunky3735]

That comeuppance you speak of? Oh, HELL YEAH HE DOES!!!!

[@KylinNicole11]

You need to get in to the Jessie J performances on The Singer. She covers Whitney, MJ, and Prince...and SLAYS every single one of them. I think you would enjoy yourself very much if you were to go down this rabbit hole.

[@lorettapierce8430]

pure goosebumps

[@kbbeers4274]

Holy shitballs is right! His first song was Somebody To Love.

[@suzannetodaro5494]

Great reaction and I felt exactly the same when I first heard this back in the day. A new subscriber just the insightful way you comment in such depth shows your own ear for music. But man your eyes are stunning ;)

[@joelleholsman9456]

Oh I love you, had a bad day but thanks to you I'm laughing my ass off. Brian Justin Crum is frickin awesome!!! My favorite performance of his.

[@irishangel5689]

Brian Justin Crumb is one of the singers you reacted to when you did Superfruit and they sang Rise by Katy Perry, with Scott and Mitch from Pentatonix.

[@vickiroman921]

An amazing, powerful California Dreaming experience with Dalton Harris: kzbin.info/www/bejne/goK4qmOnpLxmpac

[@rhondadrummonds9439]

You should also watch Vincent's (who's a friend of Brian's) cover on the Four - also great!

[@bashfyl]

Yes! Vincent's version is just as amazing but in a different way.

[@Blizzard0fHope]

if youre doing these type of showsi would suggest a pair of acts from the uk shows. . louisa johnsonprobably one of the best voices in any of these competions , who sang her way to winning without ever really being challenged. . and then that same season there was 4thimpact/4thpower girl group out of phillipines that were just flatout amazing performers

[@belairbum]

That song was written for BAC to sing it!

[@ucns]

Great reaction Can you believe he only got 4th place.

[@StoptheInsanityofRegressivism]

Would love to see you react to Lara Fabian singing "Adagio." She's stunning on every level.

[@rlhcat7662]

The version you watched didn't show some of the lead up they put on the show. He talked about realizing he was gay as a young boy and how he was bullied for it. He seemed to pull from those feelings for this performance. Thanks for the great reaction.

[@bluesguy6380]

Powerful

[@lauriep2018]

I just love this guy! He does a cover of “Shallow” from A Star is Born and it’s AMAZING! Now, I’m a total Pentaholic- been to six or seven of their concerts lol but his cover may even be better than PTX’s Shallow cover. And I’ve NEVER said that!

[@davidallan6250]

Still my fav reaction you have done.

[@jamgart6880]

I must have watched this a dozen times so far and then watched people react to it on top of that! Another one of my favourites is Yebba with her song Mind. If you haven’t reacted to it yet it definitely worth a watch X

[@geriatricptxer2362]

There is also a complete version of this song by him on KZbin if you want to look for it.

[@UserHorologium]

Yeah, but the studio recording is a bit too refined and bloodless; it lacks the emotional punch of this performance. (And as someone who usually prefers studio recordings to live performances, this is not something that I just toss out lightly.)

[@billiemchone515]

He sings with Superfruit on "Rise."

[@paullord3549]

Holy Shitballs Batman. Best reaction to this ever!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@ZuzuGametime]

I'm so glad you did this one!!! One of my favorite AMG highlight!! Thank you!!! Only one that tops this one for me is the Kodi Lee GOLDEN BUZZER highlight. Its soo AMAZING!! You should absolutely react to that one, you will not be disappointed. So inspiring!

[@dramac333]

You might remember that you have seen and reacted to Brian Justin Crum once before, when you reacted to Rise by Superfruit (a.k.a. Scott and Mitch), Mary Lambert, Mario Jose and Brian Justin Crum. It was pretty early in your PTX reactions, so it is a while back. BJC had several other songs on America's Got Talent, and last year on AGT: The Champions. He is great!

[@Blue-rl5dp]

I love to be able to say Told ya so. LOL Haley Reinhardt's version is sung well but that sweet voice and pretty face just isn't believable for what the song is. This guy is in the LGBTQ world and has felt what this song is saying so sings it with soul. His first audition of Somebody To Love by Queen is also magnificent. What is normally a hard rock song gets performed with just a light piano accompany and he perfectly carries the rest.

[@dianadoinea7998]

Amazing reaction! You should check out Scott Hoying - Creep.

[@jenneo036]

When he sings I feel baptized again.

[@lindahayes7492]

Yes it was a good one , plus

[@danalynch8889]

After hearing him I really don't care for anyone else singing this song.

[@1079walter]

May I suggest you react to Brian's new duet with Matt Bloyd, called "Tell Him", a cover of the Barbra Streisand/Celine Dion original. It's totally a mind-blowing performance.
