Poor kid waling the blues with that sort of soul obviously lost his lady, spent a few years in folsom, and cut a deal with a blind guitarist at a crossroads
It’s a truly great line……but the definitive version of this tune was recorded by Sam Cooke and the criminally underrated RH Harrris doing it call and response style with the Soul Stirrers.
He's felt the pain, brother. His mother abandoned him when he was four years old. He's the only child. His dad has had problems too, but has stuck with the kid.
Please. He’s like 9, some people are just talented to all hell and back. He has an outstanding voice; Stop over reading. I hate when people say “he has an old soul…” no, possibly. Or maybe he’s just wicked talented?
It's very rare to see ANYBODY much less a KID with talent like that. Hopefully that kid can put that talent to work and be a musical success some day because man he's got it! Good luck to you kid!
No It doesn’t... but be clear that when It comes to tapping onto soul singing.. blacks are unlike any other nation on earth... in many things actually, not just singing... but this kid df is amazing
Had an utterly miserable day, by 14 seconds his blues reminded me to smile. Children don’t normally have this type of talent but when they do embrace it!x
This was absolutely breathtaking and brought tears to my eyes. This little boy is like a reincarnated Muddy Waters mixed with Janis Joplin or something lol. Just amazing 🙏
Been in performance singing classes for 15 years. THAT is natural talent few have. Hope it brings him joy as it does others to hear him. Thank God for that talent !
+dellavar When this video was uploaded? His Wikipedia page had a date that would've made him 13 in 2011. Of course the video was probably shot before then, but I explicitly stated that he would've been 13 when this video was UPLOADED
This is unbelievable!!!! OMG this kid was definitely here before as a soul singer!! His talent is outrageous. I truly hope that he continues to do what he’s doing because he’s got a God given talent!! 🙏🏽❤️👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
The shop owner guy sees and hears musicians all day everyday, you can tell by his face at the beginning of the video that he is totally perplexed by this kids talents.
That child is an old soul. Spirit soul crossed over with him. Happiness please Gd should follow him for all of his days So gifted. Thank you for sharing
ComputerPhysics Lab . no we didn't c the guy eating spaghetti. We we listening to this boys phenomenal singing talent. How weird, u noticed the background.?!
heat4yoass Yeah, they are. Midtown Manhattan, Chelsea Guitars. He has a different video of this on his channel. And I know a NY accent, been there many times.
Deep House And your point? We know colour matters, we have known that for our whole life, at least we do not lie and say "I do not notice colour". Lies. Anyways point is blues is negro blue, it started during slavery, they sang it to try and stay positive that is facts. So the fact that they mentioned that the kid is white is because it is not always seen.
+Angolana Black surgeons, inventors, and astronauts don't come around too often so should we mention race when that happens, especially when we can see their face on a video? Get over yourselves. No need to mention race even if most of some particular race happens to be the subject. Black kid wins spelling bee likes it's nobody's business. How would that fly?
+Vit Makt They didn't do anything with peoples' voices/vocal cords. The super-high vocal range was achieved by snipping off a guy's balls before he hits puberty. The whole caste of singers were even called "Castrati", they were eunuchs.
WOW WOW WOW BRENDAN YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL SINGER...........NEVER.......EVER.........STOP. All my Love from the UK XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
A GREAT example of what can happen if one has the ABILITY to BELT IT OUT, steps up to the plate, and likely DOESN'T worry too much about what others think. My hats off to this kid (now 10 years older) and Dad (if that's who that was.... which doesn't matter). I would have LOVED this in of my shops. THANKS for posting this!!!!!!!!!!!!!.
(Trigger warning) Blues singers are historically black, so the "white" title adds something different from the norm. Same as "kid", just to a lesser degree.
Brandon....You deserve a record deal.... We will be watching and so will the Lord you have a gift !!! Don't even listen to the other imbeciles that have nothing better than to troll UA-cam and try to insult you. They are doing nothing but making fools of themselves and you are making music beautiful melodies !!!! You are a class act all the way around I can't wait to see where your talent takes you the Grand Ole Opry Madison square garden I'm sure we will see you there!!! Much love from Wisconsin and blessings to you and your family. Thank you for sharing your gift with us!!!!
I WAS JUST THINKING THE SAME THING!! I WAS LIKE I BET THAT DUDE IS THINKING "so this little shit thinks he's better than my noodles! He can fucking think again"
Love it, keep it up Sarah 💯 Suena muy bien! 👏🏼 feed your soul , fuel your passions, and Ignore outside noise. You have an amazing talent n good energy to you.💫
Poor kid waling the blues with that sort of soul obviously lost his lady, spent a few years in folsom, and cut a deal with a blind guitarist at a crossroads
Poor kid wailing the blues in cinemas now directed by Keven Watson 🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭u should pitch this
Poor kid my ass. Dudes got it goin on
Thsts funny
This made me spit out my coffee in laughter
That's hilarious.
Shoutout to the guy in the background eating his noodles like a boss.
XD
Lol
+Lauren's Music Box yeah he gives a shit if srv was singing,just eat.
+Lauren's Music Box He couldn't hear the kid singing from his munching. They must of been good noodles.
hey its that guy from karate kid eating his noddels
More needs to be said about how much time and sincere care that man took to encourage this boy.
I agree ♥️
More needs to be said about how that guys just smackin down some grub, like this happens all the time
@@TheTemplarBunny I also noticed that 😂
@@TheTemplarBunny look, man's on his lunch break, ain't gonna let no prepubescent prodigy interrupt him
Wow!!! This child is incredible and the gentleman who encouraged him is precious. What a voice!
"He ain't singing like Hank, he's singing like the guy who taught Hank!" Best comment!!!
that boy can sing the blues man...,.
ssds i will
He was singing NOTHING like hank. that was gospel, not blues singing. if I'm not mistaken hank sung country music.
barnacle pete . He also sang quite a bit of gospel, especially with his wife.
barnacle pete that definitely wasn't gospel lol
can't teach this or learn it, this boy was born with soul. Amen little brother, keep tearin it up.
ANYONE CAN DO THIS.
+Good Find and where is your claim to fame?? we'll wait.
I literally kept getting the chills💕
+Spence G he was 13 then now he is 18
he was 11 at the time of recording this
He is still singing , his name is Brendan Macfarlane. He redid this song 10 years later. Hes still just as good , if not better. Look him up 😉
I liked this version better.😁
Thanks @
It says he's from Scotland too.
I just looked him up again and he’s GREAT!!! 👍♥️
I also love the guy in the background eating his chow mein! 😂
Kids got the golden blues pipes. I'm floored. The best blues singers take 30+ years of pain or more to sound that good. How is this kid not famous?
terrible management
He is now! This was in 2002. Guy's name is Brendan Macfarlane and I've seen videos of him singing on stage with some of Country's greats.
2002 he would’ve been 5 so almost definitely not then….
The guy in the back was like , sorry kid, u’re good but food is my life
Totally me 😂
lol!!!!!
Would’ve been me
Cockroach Juli Lol! Priorities ya know!
@@mrdirtbag49 its been a long long time, I just transform from human to cockroach last year.
"He's singing like the guy who taught Hank", thats the line of the year!!!!
It’s a truly great line……but the definitive version of this tune was recorded by Sam Cooke and the criminally underrated RH Harrris doing it call and response style with the Soul Stirrers.
Absolutely great line
…the line since, 11 years ago lol
Only the elite level of blues singers can accurately depict pain they’ve never felt themselves….
He's felt the pain, brother. His mother abandoned him when he was four years old. He's the only child. His dad has had problems too, but has stuck with the kid.
Please. He’s like 9, some people are just talented to all hell and back. He has an outstanding voice; Stop over reading. I hate when people say “he has an old soul…” no, possibly. Or maybe he’s just wicked talented?
If you don't understand "old soul" that doesn't mean he isn't one
Huh? He's an incredibly talented kid, like the other incredibly talented kids all over the planet.
Don't over think it.
It's very rare to see ANYBODY much less a KID with talent like that. Hopefully that kid can put that talent to work and be a musical success some day because man he's got it! Good luck to you kid!
When shit comes from the soul, it doesn't matter what color you are.

If my shit comes from anywhere other than my ass I'm going to the doctor.
@@seanpaul8584 Bruh 🤣🤣. I laughed for a good hour.
👏 Absolutely right!
No It doesn’t... but be clear that when It comes to tapping onto soul singing.. blacks are unlike any other nation on earth... in many things actually, not just singing... but this kid df is amazing
Such a humble kid too. He wasn't doing it to brag. His dad wanted to show his son off because he's proud of him. Beautiful!! 👍
I thought exactly same thing, learning on the counter like a legend 👍👍
Being humble keeps people focused and on task...👍👍👍
even if he was bragging, id still be impressed.
Had an utterly miserable day, by 14 seconds his blues reminded me to smile. Children don’t normally have this type of talent but when they do embrace it!x
Hope this young man sees the 20m views and reads the positive comments.
A bright future is awaiting him.
Pls don’t stop singing.
yes
he sings like he's been through it all it gives you chills
brandon hairston Yes Lord!!
He has......
That's what the blues can do to you! Pure talent!
💯👏
I wonder if that singing talent continues or translates after puberty and he become a full grown dude. I say probably.
I love the look on the shop owner´s face as he realizes how incredible this kid is.
Your prof pic has my dream style of cars lol
@@dinosaurgaming1470 i agree
Yeah.. soon as he opened his mouth!
Brandon, if you don't grow up spreading the joy and absolute awe of your voice it would be a tragedy. What a talent.. once in a life time!
This was absolutely breathtaking and brought tears to my eyes. This little boy is like a reincarnated Muddy Waters mixed with Janis Joplin or something lol. Just amazing 🙏
The actual Boss is the guy eating with the chopsticks like it's nobody's business.
+Xe M like the top comment...
that was already said buddy. use another way to describe him
lol
+Xe M
hahahahahahahahahaha
hahah😂
the guy in the dark shirt in the background is eating and doesn't give a sh*t 😂😂😂
i noticed that too looool xd
well ...he's a Millennial ...and they get their music for free....soooooooo
+Nico Di Angelo, I like your profile name, and pic XD
otaku hime thanks ✌
hes like i really dont give a shit about this kid, i got a hour to eat my noodles.
Been in performance singing classes for 15 years.
THAT is natural talent few have. Hope it brings him joy as it does others to hear him. Thank God for that talent !
I get chills IMMEDIATELY when this starts! Amazing!!!
Must have stopped at the 'Crossroads' on his way to school........
sold his soul lol
great movie
***** Yep, that's the price he pays. (And he stopped singing Blues and is doing Country)
***** Yeh probs. I couldn't make it.....I missed the Bus. I'll get the next one!
His 10 years are almost up
I never realize how long ago 2011 was until I realize that he was about 13 when this video was uploaded. He's 18 now.
he was 11
+dellavar When this video was uploaded? His Wikipedia page had a date that would've made him 13 in 2011.
Of course the video was probably shot before then, but I explicitly stated that he would've been 13 when this video was UPLOADED
Wait who is this kid?
Forgot where I found his name and the comments don't seem to help either. I'll see if I can get back to you
he looks about 10
This is unbelievable!!!! OMG this kid was definitely here before as a soul singer!! His talent is outrageous. I truly hope that he continues to do what he’s doing because he’s got a God given talent!! 🙏🏽❤️👍🏽❤️🙏🏽
Speech less
I'm in shock, how does a voice with that much soul come out of a child, wow so amazing.
"Damn it, can't I just eat my noodles in peace"
Mak@5 😂😂
nail it
Absolutely true
It’s more like he’s evaluating his life while eating those noodles.
😆😄😁
I can't help but notice the guy at the back is rather proficient with a pair of chopsticks lol.
same lol I couldn't keep my eyes off of him
Dang it, I thought I was the only one noticing.
me too
Must be some damn good Chinese food
He kept eating 'til the song ended. Agree with you, must be very good Chinese food lol
This is SO Beautiful and POWERFUL....a voice Straight from Heaven
Such a voice and song and the singer also is just an Angel. May Almighty bless you 🙏
The shop owner guy sees and hears musicians all day everyday, you can tell by his face at the beginning of the video that he is totally perplexed by this kids talents.
and the 'cash me ouside' girl is more popular then him , what world we're livin in
And people can't correctly use "their" "they're" and "there" in a sentence that requires the right one. Smh, what has the world come to.
Diminished lmao
Angus Young LOL! they can't.
how bow dah
Angus Young . . who?
That child is an old soul.
Spirit soul crossed over with him. Happiness please Gd should follow him for all of his days
So gifted. Thank you for sharing
Touched my soul with that voice 💜🥰😊😊
The guy in the back is like.. F*ck this shit it's my break.
11 million people saw this guy in the background eating spaguetti

They do in China!
ComputerPhysics Lab . no we didn't c the guy eating spaghetti. We we listening to this boys phenomenal singing talent. How weird, u noticed the background.?!
I'm still watching this a decade on!!! Brilliant!
He's an old soul. It takes a lot of hard living to sing the blues that good.
Deserves a lot more attention than "the yoddeling kid" in Wallmart. Pure talent
F u that's mean
Don't make kids compete man.
Why do you have to compare?
Yodellers are from a different genre. Some people actually dig that shit and might consider him talented.
Everyone has a talent in something and everyone likes different things. What's your talent, instigating shit?
Kid is killing it with unreal vocals and all people talk about is some guy eating noodles -__-
kid in a noodle commercial
supastar I wonder what kind of noodles those are
Lol so?
Futatsu de jubun desuyo. (two is enough.)
supastar That's because he was eating Oodles of Noodles..
A young man with SOUL! Incredible voice and tone and range, but above all SOUL!!!
Wow ! Rare individual this young kid and his voice ! 👏🏻👏🏻🎶♥️👍🏻
Well the guy with the noodles didn't seem impressed. Unless he hadn't been fed for a week.

I wanna know where this kid is now and if he's still singing!

Been wondering the same ...been watching him over and over for long time and never get old
Look what I found...ua-cam.com/video/d82M41Laouw/v-deo.html
he still is good.
he's standing at the crossroads
Reminds me of a young Michael Jackson. The kid sings like he’s been through the sorrows of a grown man. A true old soul

His jaw dropping reaction at the start before he had to stop it was amazing in itself along with the singing
“He doesn’t sound like Hank Williams, he sounds like the guy who taught Hank Williams.”
Hank Williams is Country music, though?!! This guy owns a music shop and he don't know his Hank Williams from his Son House, SMH...
@@dbndbn9279 hank Williams jr was a country artist hank williams was closer to blues
