That performance was pure perfection. From my experience, It's the pinnacle of what you want to achieve as an artist. I'm in absolute awe of what he did, WOW.
His first audition was Somebody to Love by Queen / Freddie Mercury. He was not faking. He had told of his being bullied as a child and teen. Every time he sings he uses that pain to convey his emotions. Cheers
The difference between this and Haley's version is that he uses just 2 voices, quiet and loud, she uses so many more voices, far more variation, far better
If you are into the style in which Haley delivers her version then, yes, you could think it's better. However that style of music does not coincide with the lyrics, in fact they are almost at odds. Brian's powerful dynamic in his delivery is very much like a person who feels the way the lyrics describe: quiet and introverted and then powerful and explosive like a person who has been pushed too far. Haley's version doesn't come close to the delivery of Brian's message.
His Audition (performance before this one) is AMAZING. CREEP is his iconic performance for the series (IMHO) but the way he performs Queen's "somebody to love" in the audition is captivating as well. I think he would've got a golden buzzer but I think they were all gone by his audition! Love you guys & reactions! :-)
FUN FACT: I remember when Superfruit published the "Rise" cover, Brian was currently competing on AGT. I was sooooo pissed he didn't win. He was beat out by a twelve year old girl with less than half his talent. He deserved to win the money and Las Vegas show.
I didn't normally watch these type of shows because I have no faith in the general public to recognize real talent, but started watching after I heard Brian sing elsewhere.I was so sure that this time the voters would get it right and He lost to a young girl who could barely sing as she strummed a Ukelele. I think in spite of that loss, he will be hugely successful following his dream of being a singer because he is a superb talent.
suzare FYI. That GIRL is Grace Vanderwaal. She won because she’s very unique. She won because she struck a nerve with the American public. She’s now selling millions of records, and has headlining tours. She writes everything she performs/records. She’s also now winning awards. It’s a tough call. Brian is gifted, and so is Grace. She just resonated more with the American audience. It’s the difference between apples and oranges!
Wow, didn't expect that you guys would react to this one. It's one of my fav all time,the emotions in this song were unbelievable! Really enjoy your reaction videos.
I don't know how many times I have listened to his song but I get so emotional each time like I heard this song in first time. He is no doubt one of the best singer in America if not in the world.
Other Brian AGT performances: Queen's "Somebody To Love," Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight" Tears For Fears' "Everybody Wants To Rule the World" Michael Jackson's "Man In the Mirror" "Creep" was his second performance, between "Somebody To Love" and "In the Air Tonight". All of them are great!!
Yes!! The silence! Im so glad u caught that. Biggest sign of appreciation. I was right there with the audience on my first hearing. Silenced.. with a gaping mouth and goose bumps
GREAT REACTION. We all go through life feeling inadequate at times, or not good enough. In addition, we spend much of our lives, wanting to be ACCEPTED. Creep draws out an emotional response to us.
This is the very best Reaction Video I have ever viewed. These gentlemen balance the delicate balance of intelligent commentary, careful listening, and thoughtful editing expertly. - Jim in Baltimore
Love your reaction, Brians other agt performances were great as well. I do want to ask for your reaction to the brand new PTX song coming out tomorrow! !!!
He is a storyteller on this performance. He sang it with passion and I can feel it right deep in my heart. Thank you Mark and Alli for your wonderful reaction to BJC.
I know this reaction was several months ago, and I know this song was mentioned in earlier comments, but will you please react to Brian Justin Crum singing Queen’s “Somebody to Love”. I LOVE seeing your reactions and hearing your input and like “Creep” Brian sings this song with soooo much passion! I believe you’ll enjoy it 😊
Awesome..he is good too..thank you for reacting..u r my fav reactor..😊😊..he has more performances that awesome too..love his voice besides from dimash..😀😀..👍👍👍
This was his 2nd performance. Check out all his other performances on the show. Outstanding!!!! How he didn't win, I'll never know...……..people need to VOTE!!!!!
I agree with you I could relate to every single word he sang from the lyrics, each word gets straight to my heart, He takes my breath away with such a powerful voice! wow! He is my fave too 😉
How often does the audience remain completely silent not just after, but DURING a performance? He put on a masterclass in how to captivate an audience.
Another great reaction. Now, check out Brian's "Man in the Mirror" performance on AGT. This was his second performance. His first audition was "Somebody to Love".
This was his second performance. His first audition was a cover of Queen's "Somebody To Love". After "Creep", for the quarter finals he sang Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight" which was another killer performance and then the semi final cover of Tears to Fears "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" which I think was by far his best performance. For the final he did "Man In The Mirror" and that seemed,to me at least, to be his weakest performance. I, like many many others thought he should have won but he came in 4th, maybe because of that performance. And yes, PLEASE do reactions to his other performances. Also, look for a full performance that gives his back story.
If he had sung this in the final, he might have won instead of coming in 4th behind 2 magic acts and the winner, a charismatic 12-year-old singer/songwriter who performed 4 of her own original songs for the competition.
Why did you guys never do reaction vids to his other performances, they were soooooo good! "Everybody wants to rule the world", "In the air tonight" and especially "Man in the Mirror"? Did you at least see them?
May I suggest you react to Brian's new duet with Matt Bloyd, called "Tell Him", a cover of the Barbra Streisand/Celine Dion original. It's totally a mind-blowing performance.
nice guys, ur my favorite reactors, if u want ur mind blown react to clark bekham feat yebba-gravity cover, it is so amazing, yebba is the best pure vocalist i ever heard and also yebba-my mind at sofar is unreal
Fucking hell Brian. This is probably the most shocking, emotional crescendo in TV history. It can really wake you up per se. Puts you into ecstatic silence.
This performance was amazing but I'm even more impressed with his cover of Sias "Alive" (with Nicholas Connell), which no one seems to have done a reaction video to. I recommend that you guys be the first to react to it. BJC's range is even more impressive singing "Alive"! The most amazing thing is, he shows this range in chest voice, not even going falsetto.
Why did I think you'd done this? Well, very happy you did this. You did cut off one little remark too early - Howie Mandel saying to Simon Cowell, "I felt like he was singing to ME." I think that's how most of us felt.
No. It's the silence throughout the song. Noöne dared cheered during the big notes. Lest they miss the next note. For 2.5 minutes, he was in control of that world.
There's no denying his talent, but this arrangement/version of Creep was created by Carrie Manolakos a few years back. Check this out for even more amazement. I'd heard Creep hundreds of times but never understood it until I heard Carrie's version. ua-cam.com/video/aZ5ZclZTeTU/v-deo.html
one of the reasons he appeared with Superfruit and Jose and Mary is that they all (not certain of Jose) part of the LGBTQ+ community and he was a shoe-in for the song. a very talented young man not matter the song, as far as i heard.
Hi Guys, the audience was silent through the whole performance. Usually they cheer when a singer starts, or after they hit a high note. But, Brain's control of the song kept them from making a noise for fear that they would miss something. If you guys read this you have to see, and hear, Brian's duet with Cristina Ramos on AGT The Champions. It is amazing. You don't have to react to it, but just see it. You won't be disappointed, I promise. Thanks for all of your time and effort reacting to all these videos. You react the way that you should, by watching the video with your subscribers first before you start talking. So many reactors lose me as a subscriber because they are so quick to try and prove what brilliant singers or vocal coaches they are, where you two listen first and then try to put into words what impact the present mind-blowing performance has had on you. I also like that you are not so jaded that you cannot be moved to tears. I appreciate that you can be 'had' just like the rest of us. Both of you also have salient points to make that make sense to the rest of us. Thank you again for all that you do for us. I know things are changing and I will keep checking back to see what develops. Since I do not follow many serial television shows, ADHD is a killer. I will see what develops with the music end of things. P.S. Also check out Gracie-Jayne on The Voice Kids UK. The song where she starts to shine is "Many Rivers To Cross" it is an amazing performance.
THIS is how you perform! The stunned silence at the end speaks volumes!
That performance was pure perfection. From my experience, It's the pinnacle of what you want to achieve as an artist. I'm in absolute awe of what he did, WOW.
His first audition was Somebody to Love by Queen / Freddie Mercury.
He was not faking. He had told of his being bullied as a child and teen. Every time he sings he uses that pain to convey his emotions.
Cheers
This performance always brings tears to my eyes.. Sooo good! ❤️
Tracie Nichole Ikr? 😢
But he only has two voices, quiet and loud, no subtlty
Every time...
@@mawsley9 shut upppp
I absolutely love him singing this! I never get tired of watching this.
His breath control and vibrati is insane!!!!!
The difference between this and Haley's version is that he uses just 2 voices, quiet and loud, she uses so many more voices, far more variation, far better
If you are into the style in which Haley delivers her version then, yes, you could think it's better. However that style of music does not coincide with the lyrics, in fact they are almost at odds.

**Vibrato.*
I can't believe he didn't win! He's amazing!
Grace vanderwal was a darling it was her time
Exactly! Hes why I wont watch AGT any more.
And Grace doesnt give people chills. I still get chills listening to him!
@@hotttuque9445 Grace wasn't gay
YOU GUYS got the BEST AUDIO SOUND OF ALL REACTORS ; perfect stereo: crystal clear 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The silence at the end is pure awe. Raised the hair on the back of my neck. Wildly talented young man.
His Audition (performance before this one) is AMAZING. CREEP is his iconic performance for the series (IMHO) but the way he performs Queen's "somebody to love" in the audition is captivating as well. I think he would've got a golden buzzer but I think they were all gone by his audition! Love you guys & reactions! :-)
What a voice eh?? Fantastic!
His voice and emotion is so evocative. His voice is astonishing.
I'm glad you mentioned that silence. He absolutely stunned the audience....really a remarkable talent.
FUN FACT: I remember when Superfruit published the "Rise" cover, Brian was currently competing on AGT. I was sooooo pissed he didn't win. He was beat out by a twelve year old girl with less than half his talent. He deserved to win the money and Las Vegas show.
Rachael Romine he has a recording contract. He’s doing amazing collaborations.
Drieux Koeppel He is a singer a recording contract means you're owned! He is not and he's doing way better worldwide.
I didn't normally watch these type of shows because I have no faith in the general public to recognize real talent, but started watching after I heard Brian sing elsewhere.I was so sure that this time the voters would get it right and He lost to a young girl who could barely sing as she strummed a Ukelele.

Beautiful rendition of creep! Goosebumps ALL over ! Great reaction by you guys!
I don't know how many times I have listened to his song but I get so emotional each time like I heard this song in first time. He is no doubt one of the best singer in America if not in the world.
Yeah, he really put it all out there for this one. Awesome performance.

GREAT REACTION. We all go through life feeling inadequate at times, or not good enough. In addition, we spend much of our lives, wanting to be ACCEPTED. Creep draws out an emotional response to us.

My favorite song. Very emotional. Goosebumps.
HE SHOULD HAVE WON...
PERIOD
How often does the audience remain completely silent not just after, but DURING a performance? He put on a masterclass in how to captivate an audience.
This young man has some set of pipes! 😍
Still makes me melt every time 😍😍😍.... he and Scott are friends.
Brian is such a tremendous singer.
a star is born
Thank you for the Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonations!! So hilarious! 😂😂😂
Another great reaction. Now, check out Brian's "Man in the Mirror" performance on AGT. This was his second performance. His first audition was "Somebody to Love".
Yes, you understood the silence. Thanks guys...
Love your reaction or your OMG..yes, every song he did was incredible.
Have you checked out all his performances yet? HE HAS A NEW SINGLE OUT NOW!! YES!!! It's called "CIRCLES" and the video with it is good!
if you watch the leading interview you understand why he chose this song...makes me cry
This was his second performance. His first audition was a cover of Queen's "Somebody To Love". After "Creep", for the quarter finals he sang Phil Collins' "In The Air Tonight" which was another killer performance and then the semi final cover of Tears to Fears "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" which I think was by far his best performance.

Also, look for a full performance that gives his back story.
Love him :) Please do more pentatonix and superfruit reactions!
He always makes me cry! I love you guys!!
I like the brother on the left because he stays quiet until the song is over! Stuff a rag in little brothers mouth and tape it closed!! Lmao
I love how into things Marco gets
Loves this video of Brian Justin Crum. You should react to Vincint Cannady performs Creep on the Four. It's amazing!!!!
Heh, totally yelled "just fucking wait!!" at 2:02. Great reaction, guys!
If he had sung this in the final, he might have won instead of coming in 4th behind 2 magic acts and the winner, a charismatic 12-year-old singer/songwriter who performed 4 of her own original songs for the competition.
This is his best performance!
if he didn't win, he should have.....just beautifully done...
You should check out his other AGT performances!
The sound is Not raspy, beautiful.
he had the crowd in the palm of hand
Why did you guys never do reaction vids to his other performances, they were soooooo good! "Everybody wants to rule the world", "In the air tonight" and especially "Man in the Mirror"? Did you at least see them?
Fun fact: hes very good friends with adam lambert 😀
Sooo happy you reacted to this! His best performance on the show!
The sound of silence
May I suggest you react to Brian's new duet with Matt Bloyd, called "Tell Him", a cover of the Barbra Streisand/Celine Dion original. It's totally a mind-blowing performance.
nice guys, ur my favorite reactors, if u want ur mind blown react to clark bekham feat yebba-gravity cover, it is so amazing, yebba is the best pure vocalist i ever heard and also yebba-my mind at sofar is unreal
Bill Liberati YES! Please! YEBBA changed my life, absolutely amazing. You will love her.
ua-cam.com/video/RXwE1G7_U9M/v-deo.html
My Mind at sofar is astonishing!
Cant for the life of me why justin didn't win omg what a voice brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Fucking hell Brian. This is probably the most shocking, emotional crescendo in TV history. It can really wake you up per se. Puts you into ecstatic silence.
This is beautiful, but he has done a studio recording of the full song that is even more breathtaking.
You have to listen to his original AGT audition performance of Queen’s “Somebody to Love” it is amazing!
This performance was amazing but I'm even more impressed with his cover of Sias "Alive" (with Nicholas Connell), which no one seems to have done a reaction video to. I recommend that you guys be the first to react to it. BJC's range is even more impressive singing "Alive"! The most amazing thing is, he shows this range in chest voice, not even going falsetto.
You should react to his next 3 AGT performances They are all incredible finishing with Man in the Mirror which is stunning. Thanks for this
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Brilliant Arnie impressions there! Get to the Chopper....
I wish both he and Mario could release albums. I love them both. Mary Lambert is an established artist.
Why did I think you'd done this? Well, very happy you did this. You did cut off one little remark too early - Howie Mandel saying to Simon Cowell, "I felt like he was singing to ME." I think that's how most of us felt.
No. It's the silence throughout the song. Noöne dared cheered during the big notes. Lest they miss the next note. For 2.5 minutes, he was in control of that world.
That was the most beautiful song I've ever heard. HE IS AMAZING! Did he win? If not I'm going to be pissed!
No! He didn't win!! 😭
That rasp slayed...
Hi Nice reaction. You should have listened to the clip bfore he sang and you will hear why he chose this song. Children can be mean.
I cant believe he lost to that little girl! Most amazing singer I have ever heard on that show!
There's no denying his talent, but this arrangement/version of Creep was created by Carrie Manolakos a few years back. Check this out for even more amazement. I'd heard Creep hundreds of times but never understood it until I heard Carrie's version.

Your Song & Never Enough from AGT Champions please
I'm shocked he didn't win!!
He didn't win but he should have!! He's been on Broadway before!!
