    He wrote it! He didn’t start singing until 4 years ago, which is the unbelievable part. He was into sports and the outdoors. Great athlete, as well! Some people are just naturally gifted! 👏👏👏 Thanks for the reaction! 👍😊

    Benson is only 21. He writes all his own music and i think he is one of the best lyricists, not to mention i love his voice. Benson is a great athlete in terms of cliff jumping, diving, acrobatics, etc. Didn't even know he could sing until high school! I would love you to react to his new single, Slow it Down. I think i like it even a little better than this song. His first album is coming out April 5! I think the video was filmed in Utah. I have been following him since he auditioned for American Idol and i have seen many interviews. He is so humble and genuine. I agree with you that the music industry needs someone like him! He is really special....i am old, and even i swoon for Benson Boone!

      I started singing earnestly (in my bedroom lol) around age 12. Sadly I was musically trained, and knew how to be on key, but I simply don't have a strong voice. It's weird knowing how to sing, but not technically be able to do it. Then people with natural pipes don't even know it until they're practically grown 😂

If you love good voice can I suggest you another artist, Dimash Kudaibergen, a Kazac singer who's considered by many a great, if not the best, vocalist in the world? You can try SOS, or Stranger or Passione... And so many others, you won't be disappointed

    If you think he looks young now, you should see video of when he first auditioned. He looked like SUCH a wholesome child (ok, I'm old too). He sounded a bit airheaded when they interviewed him - just started singing a year prior, never really used a mic, rusty on the piano...but dang the kid can sing and write beautifully.

    First time around, I like your cool opera approach. Keep it up!
    10:22 - what is a "kick ass tenor"? Is it not exactly a counter-tenor, literally? A counter-tenor not being precise enough, or, not enduring enough, belting out? Anyay, what's just about the strongest F 5
    --- insert, edit: admittingly, I wasn't aware, before I watched your video through, that F might very well be the highest note Boone does, and there is a prominent one octave leap from F3 to F4 according to my fingering out on the keyboard, however, much more prominent is the D4; I guess that is the note that you deemed "kick-ass". As C/D is tenor's challenge, it's stell a challenge for tenors I read. What is most importatn than thanks to your video iI became aware of the "personal best" being of no relevance in the classical Fach, it's the personal bad that matters, the missing-out. Exclusively rock-pop and American bear appreciation for those kicked-ass and showing off.
    More seriously, I wonder if Bonne could be classified by this isolated performance aas baritone, no tenor.
    (continued.) ... didn't manage to drive you out into the desert that now has gotten some Armericana name to me - it's Boone. To leave you laughing (referring to the end) - I do not know your star status "but" this song seems like dedicated to you - as you say "beautiful" - amazing only later. Hope to see you! Cheers!
    Never mind the above. Please do not feel compelled to react. Thank you for letting me be bubbly at your site.
