[@zawethopi3111]

What's the golden buzzer for ? This kind of performance truly deserves a golden buzzer. He nailed it.

[@PaulaMBrown]

The GOLDEN BUZZER is basically when they really LIKED the performance and it was extraordinary!!!!! But only people that come to the show with sob stories get those💯

[@uascott]

The people with the sob stories also usually have issues with travel or disrupting their life to go to the judge cuts or whatever the next rounds are, so if you have been blessed with the personal stability and talent ability that performing in another round isnt detrimental to you, then they dont get the buzz through. Its not like he was really in danger of getting cut, and being called someone's golden buzzer pick is usually a bigger detriment to you if you have a shit follow up performance

[@makeitsl0wer803]

Only people with sob stories get them 🙄

[@tierralewis1997]

I'AM WORKING ON MY 60th TIME LISTENING ON THIS SONG'.'!!!

[@lall7860]

Paul Paul well he is really good but he was off key a few times.

[@rurifamelia8549]

There is something about him besides fantastic vocal and good attitude that makes me addicted to watch him again and again. He is SUPER GOOD.

[@mireilleduplouy5194]

[@Brandon-hd5gz]

Im glad they didnt push it. Bc then we got to listen to him in the judges cuts.

[@the4thtribe709]

He has an excellent voice and if this was 1990 something or the early 2000s he would be a mega star when talent was appreciated and you actually had to be able to sing to be a singer but sadly unless I’ve been living under a rock I’ve never heard of this guy did he ever blow up

[@andriabell6044]

Unfortunately, he died in a car crash not long after this performance. You should be able to Google it

[@jonrawls]

Omg he did not die. That was another contestant smh

[@andpeggy5383]

@@andriabell6044 now what in the hell would possess you to spread a lie like that. Also, to my knowledge Johnny never exactly “blew up” but he does have 118k Instagram followers and recently released an EP so seems like he’s doing just fine

[@andriabell6044]

Slow your roll! How do you know it's not my truth that I know it to be true? Who said your words are truth because yours could be a lie! If I made a mistake then that's what it is, a damn mistake, but I'm almost sure this was the guy. I'm almost sure because I remember his voice being one of the best. The show even acknowledged it, but if I'm wrong that's great! I hope you're right and I am wrong and guess what..... I won't be back tracking to see, so after you read these words know my ass will be in the wind, so a reply won't be needed! Have a good day!
