Guy writes all his own songs. He's amazing

[@Dr_KAP]

Guy is a musical scientist. He knows how music works and he can play with different elements of it, including vocals but also many other instruments and music theory behind beats and rhythms. They’re all his songs he writes his music and lyrics himself. He starts off with Before I Go sung in the key of B minor, transitions seamlessly into F minor for Battle Scars then to C major for Who’s that Girl, without dropping a note. Oh and by the way, the first song? It spans nearly 3 octaves (f2-d5). Unreal.

I think back now and realise coming 5th was a pretty awesome performance.

@@annsolomon5263Dami Im would never have won Eurovision or there would have been outrage. Australia is not apart of Europe, everybody knows that, so why we are still involved makes you wonder.

[@annsolomon5263]

@mareek. because the competition is sponsored by SBS television worldwide, and Australia is a member of SBS. I think its SBS, it could be a different entity but Australia is a member of the group, and on those grounds, they have been allowed to participate.

[@rhyshutchin5]

Guy is a national treasure. An amazing talent, that won the inaugural season of Australian Idol (2003). He has released ten top ten albums, including three number ones. The first seven all gained either platinum or multi-platinum certification with his number 1 single Battle Scars (ft. Lupe Fiasco) being 13x Platinum. Not only is Guy a great talent but is very engaged with children charities donating a lot of his time and money to various charities and even forming his own with his Partner Jules, the Sebastian Foundation which has helped with services for young girls, domestic violence shelters, hospitals, music therapy, mentoring programs for teenagers, women who have experienced domestic violence and more. A good follow up video to this that I'd recommend would be where he surprises a school choir, that's singing his song. It's really wholesome kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXqWgqWHa7SYibs

America didn’t give Guy the credit he deserved. He is an amazing singer and he isn’t auto tuned, it is all him. You need to listen to his music. This was a melody of songs but all of his music is fantastic. And no they are not his total songs. He has made much more music and you should react to some of the complete versions of his songs. He is a master craftsman and America missed out by not giving him a record deal, cudos to him for not changing who he is. He will always be one of Australia’s shining stars.

Listen to his first album and the version of Battle Scars he did with Lupe Fiasco live on the X factor Australia where he was also a judge. I prefer that to his live solo version. My youngest daughter was being treated for cancer when she was 2 years old when he was on the first Australian ldol. I needed something to focus on to take my mind off her treatments and he was it. I was in the hospital with her the night the winner was announced, and l had to restrain myself from yelping out loud when he was declared the winner, as we were on a shared ward. My youngest is now 22 by the way and healthy as a horse.
