Emotional Performance.mp4

I am uploading this vedio because it really is a very emotional performance
look like he is telling his own story which is coming out directly from his heart ...
i feel like a man who has nothing in life but still have a hope :(
and look at tha audience who were laughing at him but didnt make a single noise during his performance

[@1ButtonDash]

the reason I love this is not cuz of how well he sung but how he shut the whole crowd up and made everyone stop and think for a second on how to not judge a book by it's cover

[@ensvenskgrabb2834]

OneButton Dash That's exactly what I thought as well

[@triwiyanto0304]

that's right👍

[@pitierenky2559]

+En Svensk Grabb 👍

[@pitierenky2559]

👍

[@robertrodriguez7131]

Absolutely hounting

[@AristoCat221]

He was humble and honest. You can't say this about 99% of the world.

[@andynho00]

+TheErminK He moved a room of persons, and milions online , that is more then most of us achive in an entire lifetime

[@DZMegamind]

+andynho00 nailed it

[@vickiehamilton2779]

At the 108 mark he shot Kevin a bird. He should apologize for that bullshit. Kevin is great and even if he hadn't have been he didn't deserved somebody thinking they are bigger than GOD shooting him a bird. It was not an accident!!!!

[@marisamerotto4638]

All Out Studio

[@jasonsonnenfeld1985]

The exact number is 95%

[@ScorpioMotivation]

Years later I'm still here listening to him. Showing his heart and showing everybody's wrong about him.

[@adub1214]

it speaks volumes that this guy walked on the stage to laughter...and once he started singing you could hear a pin drop in that place. awesome performance

[@survivrs]

A Dub AMEN!!

[@shogrran]

His voice cried out to anyone who's ever had to deal with bullying coz of their race, color of skin, accent, disability. I cry every time I watch this video.

[@englishforyou3419]

the same feeling

[@shogrran]

xXDMXxjake Obviously you didn't realize he was bullied at the start for looking the way he did. Everyone laughed at who he was without knowing who he is. But oh well I didn't expect a heartless idiot to understand that though.

[@shogrran]

xXDMXxjake doesn't matter what song he sang. if he sang queen's bohemian rhapsody or disturbed's down with the sickness. His voice still cries out for those who are bullied. It's YOUR comment that has nothing to do with mine.

[@shogrran]

xXDMXxjake Sure heartless douchebag. Anything you say to keep you from crying.

[@shogrran]

xXDMXxjake keep crying little boy... that's what bullies like you do. Crying inside. Pity.

[@nguyentuan1990]

most straight up and honest person ive ever seen. dont forget that all your foods came from the field where farmers work their butt of to but food on the table. awesome singing.

[@fugrawasoki4090]

Dude are you related to Trey Nguyen ?!

[@fugrawasoki4090]

Because Trey always post damn comments on every freaking video i see....

[@danielstein5290]

Fügraw Asoki 40% of vietnam is Nguyen :)

[@fugrawasoki4090]

For the First Time in my Life as a "Troll" I want to say: Thank you! For that Information.

[@marisamerotto4638]

[@Cherevolution1]

that's some real country right there. Straight from the heart.

[@Atouk]

"A lovely person" A man that can cry, is a man with empathy, and a heart.

[@funonutube100]

At the beginning they were all laughing at him and sort of making fun of him. When he finished he had everyone in the building eating out of the palm of his hand!!!!! I am so very pleased for this guy, very touching!! Never judge a book by it's cover!!

[@jaketunstall4564]

The way he sang this song... Gets me everytime.. Please tell me I am not the only one that cried..

[@Tyler-rn1di]

at first i was with the judges thinking it was gonna suck but he sang and i was like *jaw dropped*

[@ipkeez]

U're not alone, do not worry! :-D

[@Nbb12]

u are not alone babe.. i also crying... love from Malaysia..:(

[@hayrylyzalyz523]

yeahh so do i

[@SE-token]

I cry everytime I listen to his version

[@redwoods7370]

"The last shall be first." Never judge. I could listen to this guy all day and night and it would feed my soul.

[@bonnieoles4212]

I love listening to him sing! What a special, wonderful guy he is. He has a beautiful heart! You go, Kevin Skinner!!!

[@mrtn_vw4587]

It's a shame really that all these people laughed, and then they clapped and cheered at him at the end.. pretty ignorant. It doesn't fucking matter what job you have, as long as you can provide for yourself and your family.. it's all that matters.

[@nightpmc]

Excelent comment, best regards from Chile..

[@mrtn_vw4587]

Rodrigo Avila Soto Thanks, regards back from The Netherlands :)

[@lockyer72]

awesome comment...wish the world was full of people like you.

[@mrtn_vw4587]

lockyer72 Yea, well i don't mean a criminal life of course.. but if you can provide for yourself and/or your family in a legitimate way, it's all that matters. Not everyone can be a lawyer or a doctor. Every person is doing their bit in this world, even if it seems stupid or whatever. If that is what makes a person happy, then do it.

[@GR0UCHYsmurf]

Good point. They laugh now but when they come back home they'll have some chicken for the dinner. If everyone was a lawyer or a stockbroker i don't believe human race would survive very long...

[@Gris1213]

i always find myself back to this video

[@nadadhibi]

me 2 :'(

[@jamal-lv6jo]

Shan-chan Ichiban me too :( and then the other song is the original one. like always.

[@peterwalker1982]

always :)

[@user-jn2cw8kb1c]

[@aiwahong2283]

[@cyjazz]

I'd NEVER laugh at a person's honest job, no matter how humble it sounds. And this is coming from a man with 2 Masters degrees! Screw the judges, screw the audience. I have no idea what happened to this man, but I hope he got it made!

[@vitopitoz]

+cyjazz He won!

[@cyjazz]

David I'm glad he did. I don't know of him, I hope he's got a career and a comfortable life.

[@margarettran4775]

He has a kind face with a very sweet voice. Don't just look at his appearance or whatever job he does, let's listen music performed out from his heart. He's great !

[@ANorthernParadise]

This man was fantastic. A truly genuine, simple kinda man.

[@jillambrewse2781]

Amazing talent truly great singer There is a professional singing and vocal lesson guide on singsbee.com for anyone who wants to sing better and improve their voice. The vocal lessons are for all levels. Just practice and you can get really good singing

[@camelback4199]

I dont understand what's funny about him being a chicken catcher. How dare people laugh at someone trying to make a living. Too many idiots in the world.

[@leebradly1251]

***** SOOOOO

[@anampz8137]

camel back you right !!

[@OranJee]

Wanna go to planet earth 2.0? My rocket is ready. Lets go.

[@anampz8137]

True !!

[@SolitaryJake]

+OranJee Sure, lets hope its different :D

[@tomcarpenito3919]

I’ve watched literally hundreds of these videos. This is one of my favorites. This guy is a genuine beautiful and humble man. I truly wish there were more people like this man. A man who is a power of example and a gift to us all from God! Thank you Sir. Your talent and being makes me happy to be here. Thank you Kevin’s parents. Great job!

[@ignatiussepto2182]

Thanks God for having people who always pray and help the "needy" - love, wealth, attention, water, food, etc in their own way.

[@c0mplete]

I got mad when they started cheering when he was done singing, after they all probably judged him for his looks and his clothes. They don't deserve to applaud this great man. I hope they felt bad about themselves.

[@sagittariuswatts4525]

In 2019 this still makes me cry hearing him sing , you're sooooooo genuine & humble blessings too you always Kelvin Skinner ❤❤❤

[@jeremyking920]

Man..when he cries at the end..that's from a deep place. we've all felt that and for him to get to release it is awesome! God bless this man

[@skeeman4667]

This performance felt like forever ago but just lost my grandmother and came back to this. Really hits home you know. God Bless

[@stephenmichalski2643]

This song......his performance of it......and his demeanor......just seemed to kinda strip and wash away all the bull shit we carry and go through in life.......and brought the simple yet most important thing in life we tend to forget about in the course of our way too busy lives......I love seeing the faces in awe......specially the ladies.......can't help wondering how many would have said "I do" right there and then on the spot.

[@arntigreat1]

He won the competition. He was awesome. AND HE DESERVED THE WIN !!!!!!!!

[@margieamason8588]

That's a hard. Job catch ing chicken ing you better have a lot of wind

[@marcomartinez3263]

Man, it got to me, the words of the song, and also the humility in his heart. He’s got my yes and I’m sure many others will feel the same way.

[@1wannabee1]

I think he just made this song HIS! I mean .. what a fab audition. Way ta Go Kev!!

[@rickytan3483]

hell of a story teller, the audience never expect

[@Benhur966]

Every time when I feel low and insulted, i watch this video, a real morale booster!!! Thanx a ton Kevin...!!

[@1wannabee1]

This bloke really sings this song sooooo beautiful. Best version I've ever heard! Tc Kev. you deserve all you receive from this audition mate.

[@qt2073]

''Way to go man'', what a way to rise to the occasion, simply awesome.

[@chrisschelin7749]

I got so incredibly angry at the judges for mocking him, even before I heard him sing. And then I heard him sing, and godDAMN.

[@bennylbkooi]

And the damned audience too

[@pONtosanAz]

Xtina Schelin most people = prejudiced Kevin Skinner = Kevin Winner :) great (Best) versiON :)

[@ekggfg]

I am on the verge of tears right now because all this guy said was that he was going to sing garth brooks, his name, and his occupation, and they all laughed at him for being a hardworking individual that didn't fit into their little box of "cool", it was disgusting and I am appalled. but hey, he showed them, and props to Kevin skinner, for his talent and ability to keep it together on that stage in front of those rude people.

[@netanimomo2229]

Calm down woman...

[@sandrahinds27]

[@tonystewart9767]

Much respect to this young man for sharing his talent with the world. I hope that someone gives you that break you deserve.

I believe you .

[@thegreyarea9717]

My first job was at Marshall Dervers in Palmdale cleaning pens. It's ridiculously hard work.

[@vivianperino5006]

Vicky Camp ...I love this guy....he can catch my chicken 🐔 anytime!

[@007413527]

tell someone that you love what you're thinking of.."tomorrow never comes" strong message

[@patminbch1484]

I am still watching this again and again .love you. God bless.

[@sonjadevries1397]

These judges should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. In my experience, it's the people who look "shabby" or "out of place" that are the kindest souls we'll ever meet. I'm so proud he kept his head up high and knocked them all for a loop.

[@blastprosful]

real heartache real soul. thats where real music comes from.

[@handsonlibrando6730]

This is the most emotional audition...I've been watching this more times than I can count,and every time I watched this,it always bring me to tears because I can really relate to the lyrics with my past relationship...it's 2019 and I'm still here

[@NewEarthBlog]

It's the best rendition of that song I've ever heard, and the whole audience agreed!

[@ericjhaber]

I'm a New Yorker and I hate country music. But, I really like this guy, and I really respect his talent.

[@calebdabeast9374]

He’s an amazing singer. He sounds so good and really puts feelings into that beautiful song. Good luck young man.❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@greenreed3211]

Here again. Thanking you again for singing this song. You give me hope and show me that goodness still exists ❣️

[@antoniosy5305]

2019 and Im still moved for the way He sang with deepest and genuine emotion 💖

[@meth2anie]

not sure how I got here... but that was damn beautiful

[@susansimpson72]

My kind of guy, good ole country guy...cute with that southern accent...its horrible how they laughed at him making little jokes and then he gets up there and slam dunks that performance in their face!!! Way to go cowboy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@nathanfasil7686]

I love this cause he went on to win the whole competition. It was the only season of America's got talent that I'd watched.

[@bonnieoles4212]

This guy did such a great job! I loved it. It shows that you shouldn't judge someone. The judges should be ashamed of themselves for laughing at him in the beginning. What a sweet and kind guy...a beautiful man.

[@jacktitanic6960]

THIS GUY IS JUST PURE AND INNOCENCE,HE MIGHT NOT HAVE THE BEST OF VOICE,BUT HE SINGS,THATS SO MUCH EMOTION AND FEELING ON HIS VOICE,THATS MAKES ME WANT TO HEAR HIM MORE!!!

[@MalteseFilippo27]

what's the singer's and the song's name???

[@crazy4mopar]

MalteseFilippo27 Kevin Skinner singing "If tomorrow never comes" song by Garth Brooks

[@monavahedi]

He is such a simple and nice person even though they were all laughing he still had this solid and amazing voice and the song with his voice made it very emotional !

[@EsElTee-2021]

I've watched this at least 12 times a year or more since 2010. It's 2016 now and still watching.

[@angelpraises4642]

I find myself coming back to this video cause I love to hear him sing this song. The first time I listened to him I just fell in love with this man. He is so genuine and his voice is so awesome. If he was mine he would be singing to me everyday and before bedtime. I was really upset when I heard Sharon laugh at him for his accent. We all have accents depending on where we are from. I really have to follow up on him to see all his auditions cause I am sure he went really far in the competition. I bet he won.

[@bizzleblue38]

See here's the thing, when people get on that stage and have a hard kinda life they want to find there true calling. ANd when these people laugh at him and others at first, that makes it harder for them. I am so touched and proud of them when they get up there and blow everyones mind with there amazing God gifted talent.

[@DMike54]

This dude can sing real good. Sharon has a lot of nerve laughing at his accent. What about her own messed up accent.

[@dalecouch1995]

+Michael Wells Really, she is shrill and grating and I hope she does not think she is "posh"--ugly behavior. I guess the habit of colonialism is hard to break for some "has beens". This man is authentic and so is his culture.

[@DMike54]

I agree with you 100%.

[@csgrambauer5852]

+Dale Couch Not to mention she is sexist. The disgusting things she says about men it's revolting, like she is as a human being. If men said similar things about a woman there would be an outrage but she gets away with the things she says about men. I hate that ugly cow.

[@lynnbrannen4954]

She is nervy laughing at him when she has had such a weird life with Izzy!

[@222psb222]

I watched this when it was first on, the first show of season. He blew me away. The real deal. Just pure raw natural talent and emotion. I said right then he should win this...and he did.

[@smohammed6538]

Beautiful never judge a book by its cover, he put everyone to shame,

[@tankkong4749]

Why can't everyone be like this guy. :(

[@1joehig]

Those emotional tears at the end when he realized he had the power to move the multitudes with one message, got to me. It didn't say it here on the video but that man won a million dollars and a contract based on his performance. And that's the end of my hillbilly jokes.

[@aidajones8110]

[@enakup]

I am not from states but hes got to have one of the best accents americans can have. You should be proud on it. If I could pick one to speak that one woould be the one for sure...

[@rosesilva7001]

Me apaixonei muito pela música que Kevin cantou! Ele pode cantar qualquer música, simplesmente nasceu com o dom de emocionar e encantar o público. Parabéns Kevin, sou sua fã brasileira.

[@robrivait8545]

The judge's should be ashamed of themselves! Don't judge a book by it's cover! This guy has a wonderful voice!

[@Steve-Riverwood]

I think too many good, decent, genuine, humble, loving, caring talented people like Kevin gets laughed at and trotten down all over the World every day. Because we look different, speak with and accent, dont have any Money, or have trouble spelling etc. etc. you name it... If you paint lipstick on a pig it wont matter none, it´ll still just be a pig even if it´s an expensive lipstick. Fashion to me is just a way of hiding an ugly personality. Kevin stuck it to all those shallow people. the best way possible. Kevin, i salute you.!

[@TerryMaxfield]

One of my favorite performances of all time. It was very moving because of the sincerity in his voice and expression. So happy he won the competition.

[@fredwilliam2467]

Your My favorite Kevin.... sing it brother.... country music is my soul.... Hit it brother.... God loves you and God bless you.....You're the modern Garth Brooks......

[@meredithpower1819]

Just goes to show, a person's current job does not define them!!! He may be a chicken catcher, so what!!! He, and each and last every one of us have value upon this earth!!!!

[@wyattberry677]

Bless u Meredith, nobody wants to be too low or different.but thats what life is.we have to be thankful.

[@meredithpower1819]

***** Terribly sorry, but I'm not as familiar with the beautiful French language as I'd like to be:) What I did pick up is excellent musician, modest, and surpise! And I agree with each word:)

[@DestructiveSoulz]

Meredith Power he basically said the guy killed the song (in a good way) and is a great singer and musician. français est la langue de l'amour , c'est ma première langue mais pas le français vous parlez de France , je parle français cassé , Alias ​​Cajun .

[@peteralhen2488]

You´re right! What the heck would doctors, nurses, technicians, etc at a hospital do without the personnel who cleans the floor? What would rich people do without those who collect the rubbish they produce? Do rich people know where the chicken they eat at home or at a restaurant come from? I hope they do.

[@laceyellis4107]

I love his voice and he is so genuine !!!

[@ladylightwolf306]

Loved it...Never judge a book by it's cover!

[@jeanluke39]

World class... so much émotion . Even hard To put words... I probably watched it 75 times in the lasts months.. I still have goosebomps and tears....

[@celestium77]

Definition of humbleness...this man right here

[@xenunibiru313]

I'm no fan of country but you know what, fuck those people for laughing at that guy. Chicken catcher har har har, you know what, we all need a paycheck and one thing that shows strength is the ability to suck it up and do whatever you can to make a living. Assholes

[@grandplans]

I know what you mean. I do watch these shows, America's got talent, Australia's got talent, and Britain's got Talent. I get tired of the judge's looks when someone comes on whom doesn't present themselves the way that THEY feel someone should present themselves. You can see the look of disgust. I get so annoyed with that. How dare they make pre judgments. Maybe it's a part of the act? I dunno.

[@xenunibiru313]

The judges are one thing, their arrogance is already telling but the audience, they should be ashamed of themselves.

[@vedransusic8592]

Brian Yach it's about judges doing their job unprofessional and many of them are jealous on talented young people

[@KimElena100]

Brian Yach, конечно они работают по сценарию! Вы думаете, что съёмка происходит за один раз?) Посмотрите российское шоу. Наши судьи ведут себя сдержанно. Но критикуют сильно, если им что-то не нравится.

[@papaalpha2110]

Couldn't possibly agree more, what you do for a living has no bearing at all on the kind of person your are or your worth.

[@signtifick]

Not a fan of country music but with all honesty he had my full attention from start to finish, congratulations as your performance was truly amazing. Cheers

[@anitanewton4419]

I'm watching this in 2015 but I'm in loveee with him..

[@Supplies3d]

it's the sincerity and effort put into any job, not the job that grants Dignity. Any one that laughed should be ashamed of themselves

[@DannyBrownCymbolic]

This is the primary reason why we shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Musicians can be goofy; silly with a great sense of humor. In fact, music is all about being expressive which being funny is a characteristic an individual possesses so they're obviously gonna tie who they are into their style. He has such an incredible voice and sings with such compassion...he's has my absolute respect frfr.

[@williamdenny5578]

I live in the middle of rural Ky., and he is what he is. I have never met him, but I can tell.. Everything about him is real, and is exactly what eastern Ky. looks like. Takes a lot of nerve to go to the top with it. Hell yeah Kevin. His accent is local to here.. music to my ear. I don't care to much for the rich and famous looking down on my kind. I try to look over their kind,

[@edithann1284]

By the way chicken catching is an honest and extremely necessary job! Good for him that he worked and wasn't on welfare!!!!!!

[@kibskibs498]

those fucking liberal British cunts... never saw real hard working true AMERICAN boy in action.

[@JIM-tt3wp]

Great response! It really bothers me how some people make fun of those who have jobs that are "looked down upon" by snobby people. If your pastor, rabbi, preacher AND the plumber/garbage collector who unstops your commode and or picks up your garbage all quit their jobs on the SAME DAY, just who are you going to miss the quickest? Yea......you got it!

why those spectators laugh when he's comming on stage? can they do better than him? oh! i get it! he dressed absolutely casual and masses laugh. i get it again! 80% dont deserve this planet

[@tonyjustmeogodell242]

fuck Sharon Osbourne she thinks she's so much fucking better than someone that she wouldn't even give him a standing ovation when everybody else did ,David try to get her to stand up but she refused to, I just believe that is a self righteous bitch that wanted to show everybody that she don't have to stand up that she's above all of this, well fuck her and good for him you go you American fucking country singing Chicken catching son of a bitch Yeehaw man. I hope I did that right I'm from Ireland

[@Lyndy914]

I hate the way they ridiculed and laughed at him but I loved the way he took it all in stride. What a wonderful, humble and honest soul...

[@mpalerider]

Is unbelivable how he stand the crowd laughing at him, without any anger, and with a sense of humorism never seen in this competition

[@smnasiruddin842]

Sometimes late at night I lie awake and watch her sleeping She's lost in peaceful dreams So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark And the thought crosses my mind If I never wake up in the morning Would she ever doubt the way I feel About her in my heart If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face this world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes 'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life Who never knew how much I loved them Now I live with the regret That my true feelings for them never were revealed So I made a promise to myself To say each day how much she means to me And avoid that circumstance Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel If tomorrow never comes Will she know how much I loved her Did I try in every way to show her every day That she's my only one And if my time on earth were through And she must face this world without me Is the love I gave her in the past Gonna be enough to last If tomorrow never comes So tell that someone that you love Just what you're thinking of If tomorrow never comes
