‘Voice’ Winner Sawyer Fredericks: ‘Whole Experience Was Amazing’ | TODAY

[@ClueSign]

I like how he says he's looking forward to seeing his dogs before his family. He's just so adorable and authentic not to mention, truly gifted and best of all, humble.

[@Yellow4494]

ClueSign Family should come first.

[@AuntieFa]

Yellow4494 Dogs ARE family.

[@Yellow4494]

Muse D Maybe to you. Not everyone likes dogs and they are NOT equal to people.

[@AuntieFa]

They are obviously family to Sawyer. That was the whole point. And you're right, they're not equal to people, they're better (in my opinion)

[@yronisegeorges195]

Oh wow

[@alexislee27]

His eyes are so dreamy my god

[@callofdutyandsuch]

thanks

[@treegerl]

I wanted this dude to win so bad but I legit thought one of the power-house singers were going to win! Im so so happy he won!!! Phenomenal voice on this kid. Reminds me so much of Bob Dylan :)

[@madiball35]

I agree!

[@scanlon1201]

[@oliviagr4ce]

he listed his dog before his family... 😆

[@th000111222]

Olivia Plaskow His family was there at the finale but not his dog.

[@ClueSign]

Olivia Plaskow Ha noticed the same thing.

[@yronisegeorges195]

That doesnt mean anything

[@RobertWorthLexus300]

+Olivia Plaskow The dog IS part of the family silly

[@RobertWorthLexus300]

Amazing human being and a great handsome singer

[@connyr3273]

Love Sawyer!! He is so adorable and extremely talented! I love his voice and I hope to see many albums in the future!!

[@hopemcnamara3413]

he. is. so. attractive.

[@kimmicub17]

He looks like a long haired Jonathan Taylor thomas

[@scholar1972]

Sawyer is a legend already before his first album.

[@sorekben-ephraim8337]

sawyer's so adorable and talented! way to go kid!

[@rebelsunspoken312]

Sawyer is a inspiration for young artists in the making like me I hope to someday be where he is and to let the world know its because of him *****

[@Victor-md8jt]

If Sawyer can package his personality and send it to me, I'd be very happy to start a new life. :)

[@riaartha4172]

lol this comment got me laughing! Thanks for the laugh.. :D

[@TheSimplyQua]

It's really nice to believe that Ray LaMontagne wrote that song for Sawyer. He actually wrote the song well before he even got a recording contract. I know, as I have the recording of that and other songs. For some reason this didn't get recorded on his last and subsequent albums. One of my favorite tunes of his from early on. I am deliriously happy he gave it to Sawyer however since he did an outstanding job of it.

[@javijavijavija]

Sawyer

[@FloridaManRacer]

Upstate NY is full of musical talent. sadly our opportunities to even play bars and local venues are slim and none. there is no music "scene" here. for him to win is HUGE for us, maybe JUST maybe a few place will have some open mic nights or something now....

[@FreshFreshFreshable]

I think I've fallen in love...!!

[@Marjarealty]

Great job Sawyer

[@cloud625]

Congrats Sawyer!

[@seriavery7933]

cloud625 o

[@christinahasan9086]

I wanna HUG HIM!!!!😍😍😍😍💖💖💖💖.He's soo CUTE!!.

[@emmavaladez5859]

At 1:20 In the back there is someone waving to the camera.

[@sabrinalp98]

I want him in Brazil 💕 São Paulo is waiting for you 🇧🇷 just hope I have written it right 😅

[@runan6767]

how the hell does he maintain his hair mine looks like a bird nest

[@cyoung460]

Must be contagious cause mine does too and I just had to unstick a 2 ft length of green electric tape from it.

[@iHalliex]

he came to my school to perform :D #fondafarmers for life

[@rmoriarty0224]

iHalliex lucky

[@dalusgembalus]

did he perform on the show? where can I watch it?

[@yoyo-bt8tl]

He's gorgeous tbh.

[@mileymbclimb17]

He only lives like thirty minutes from me, but thats really what new york (upstate) is farms XD

[@melissawoody809]

😊😊

[@keldemption3092]

I really like Sawyer now. During his time on the show, I really wanted another singer to beat him. But then during the Finals, I felt that he was giving his best effort regardless of his front-runner status and truly deserved to win. What a great person!

[@momomox8682]

how did you not like him from the start.....

[@keldemption3092]

momomox Cuz I don't listen to Folk-ish music.

[@strooomon]

If Sawyer does not become a star then the powers that be behind the voice, should end the shows run, like, right now. He is the real deal both as a singer and as a human being.

[@burntwaffles9950]

alan dvorkis Talent never guaranteed "success",mbut honestly at this point I think it depends on what he wants for himself.. regardless as long as I get to keep hearing him sing I'll be very content :)

[@strooomon]

Well stated. Totally agree. Sadly in this "Pied Piper" world we live in, something is deemed the real deal, people follow, mostly without questioning. Luckily for us, Sawyer was well received. Therefore, he has a chance to be relevant, like you said, if he chooses. I do hope he goes for it as again, he is very special.

[@yronisegeorges195]

HES SO CUTE (adorable) GAHHHAGAGDGGHSGGG

[@Resfa98]

his laugh sounds like bretman.haha

[@DannoCrutch]

Fogarty and Fredericks was an epic opportunity BUT, whoever was manning the mixer was either deaf, sleeping, or incapacitated. To ruin such an epic performance with less than amateur sound was incompetent.and unfortunate.

[@PinkCircleO8]

DannoCrutch Yeah. I noticed that the mics seem to not be working properly because I couldn't hear it too well. :(

[@momomox8682]

+PinkCircleO8 yep the mic was somehow on mute

[@ashleymart4335]

looks like michael langdon from ahs season 8

[@heyheyjuliet6983]

My friend knows him I see his sister commenting on my friends posts all the time

[@neveronetofollowneveroneto6307]

He doesn't have a sister. Just two brothers.

[@Cr7abood33]

he is hot

[@1stCrallyy]

He is the male version of Saoirse Ronan!

[@kmidelah]

He is so Willy Wonka like.

[@kingmaliq3565]

let's hope he doesn't sell his soul he probably wont

[@jefferyaldaz4665]

this dude is small

[@someguyrocco]

At first I thought he was a girl

[@jdryer100]

Sawyer is awesome!!!!!!😡 you are mean

[@marthachiplock1604]

Ender VlogsYT hair" = female is so-o-o-o outdated and stupid!

[@someguyrocco]

Martha Chiplock .-. typical dumbass

[@yronisegeorges195]

Martha Chiplock he looks better with long hair u rather short?????????? Noooooooo

[@marthachiplock1604]

Don't know.....haven't seen him with short hair. But I think he's adorable with long.

[@MW-lw4ek]

until i saw this video i was convinced he was a girl

[@arteye4385]

Asking for Trouble? Women of All ages will fancy him? I now know that showbiz was Not for me? You Never know who s looking thru their window? All kinds of strange people wiv strange ideas Nevermind the rest? No Thanks Even If a was offered a Million bucks id say goaway cant be Trusted. Id hate the wrong kind of Attention. Infact most who want fame n fortune are pretty nieve as to what they get themselves into?? The dark side is 1 many wud be surprised about? Wer blessed to be a Nobody seriously.

[@rfck450]

hopefully he makes some cash so he can afford a haircut..

[@hayden7620]

+rfck450 I love his hair long sorry, The long hair and the bowler hat is Sawyer could not imagine him any other way Noooooooooo keep your hair long .

[@cyoung460]

Assuming he can't afford a haircut is very rude.

[@rmoriarty0224]

rfck450 Bully he likes his hair

[@yzyzyz44]

he was born as a girl I guess
