      @@Dimaz42 when he was younger, he had a recording contract, but it fell thru before his album made it. He's made efforts on talent shows, but because he's spent a lifetime singing in subways, his vocal skills are now tuned to that environment and he doesn't sound as good in open air.
      Sad but true.

      que tiene que ver el autotune? la musica comercial pop no solo el trap tienen mas de 50 años usando el autotune en grabacion de discos etc. El hecho de que un cantante no lo use es porque no quiere, son herramientas al alcance de todos, otra cosa es usar autotune para modificar la voz y no tener madera de cantante. just sayin'

    Let this be a lesson ... this guy is pouring his heart out and absolutely crushing a live performance with no auto tune, editing, etc. but people are walking by, distracted by their phones, responsibilities and more. Don't let life distract you from enjoying the small things in life. Music, nature, your family, loved ones. Don't take anything for granted.

When they became so proud that they're doing drugs and drinking till they're wasted and that becomes almost always their theme for the music, the music becomes trash. Think about it, Ed sheeran had an interview about him getting drunk and everything, but that's not the theme of his music. So it's somewhat got to do with drugs and alcohol.

    A brilliant Righteous Brothers memory from my younger years. Amazing rendition of a difficult classic. Played this on the coffee shop juke box every morning over a bacon sandwich and coffee with my girlfriend before going to work....We're now close to 52 years married so the song must have "done something"..............

      We New Yorkers are so dead on the inside sadly. I hate it but it’s the way we are unfortunately.
