I play this clip in continuous mode. The feeling you bring to this song is indescribable. I hope, Colin, that you can delight many more people with your music!
This is one of the best auditions I ever heard his voice is so powerful he should win the show just off this first audition he sounds like a superstar already that’s the first time I say that
Wow Just amazing, His voice is incredible, nailed it. He sung it like he wrote it. I keep playing it over and over and it gets better every time, well done Sir... (Bloody Awesome you Legend)
That song obviously meant a lot to this guy. You can tell in his voice. A genuine performance. This brought a tear to my eye and I'm happy the place he went was Australia.
What an absolute gem. Sounds exactly like Cat Steven’s. Song was meant for fathers and their sons, no doubt the two men there resonated with it immediately. Absolute legend. What an absolutely beautiful song to pick with that voice.
yeah Cat Stevens had so many good songs .. and this one was always one of my favorites .. this guy sounds a lot like him and just doing this song in my book says a lot about him , I bet he has a whole bunch of great songs to do ...
Two years? It's like yesterday to me. Colin, old soul, I miss hearing your voice anew, but I have your albums and walk along side you as much as I can. Family is precious to both of us. Keep it up, Mate.
I love this yet it makes me cry when I hear this song, I never really got to know my birthfather before he passed away. But I can’t stop listening to it
0:33 great to have this judge prioritize the potential of the voice rather than the mistake in the beginning. The female judges' surprised faces further told us what hitting the button meant. *props to the band
Lyrics: It's not time to make a change Just relax, take it easy You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to know Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy To be calm when you've found something going on But take your time, think a lot Why, think of everything you've got For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not How can I try to explain? 'Cause when I do he turns away again It's always been the same, same old story From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go It's not time to make a change Just sit down, take it slowly You're still young, that's your fault There's so much you have to go through Find a girl, settle down If you want you can marry Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away I know I have to go
6 years later I come back best cover ever
Quite extraordinary as to how the men pressed the buzzers. Sons can duly understand the emotions presented by this song.
Both ladies had their quota of contestants, that's why they couldn't turn.
@@mamanic so why put their hands over the buzzer like it was a hairy pair of tezzas?
So uplifting to hear Cat's voice ring out like it did in the early days.
Except from starting early, he sounded just like Cat
He had a nervous start.He used to sing in the Gillen Club in Alice Springs.He is a freak.Even Cat Stevens would be confused who was who
@@nintiwirri He deserves to have a very good lifestyle with that voice, never heard anyone else who sounded so similar to a famous singer.
Even better than CS
He do sound like the older Cat
that chorus part just wow sounds like cat even the outro part he nailed it
Now this is singing. Telling a story. Awesome
mike856ms don't know if you know the original then but this guy sounded just like cat Stevens who did this song
Dean Nederhoff yes I know Cat real well.
Its called MUSIC
@@denverflora7103 really genius? We would never had known. Duh
Thanks Mike
I've never in my life heard anyone emulate Yusuf's voice that well. Amazing
this guy's voice is amazing, it sounds like the original, i couldn't tell HOLY SHIIIITE
@Corona Covid neither is this guy australian...
thanks About
@Corona Covid2 thank you
when he sings the refrain then i agree
Wow , he nailed it perfectly ! This song always made me teary eyed, but even more now that my father passed away
My sincere condolences❤
He'll always be at your side
@@toilettenpapier7269 So true. It's one of my most favourite songs & always makes me think of my late father. This singer did a beautiful rendition.
I play this clip in continuous mode. The feeling you bring to this song is indescribable. I hope, Colin, that you can delight many more people with your music!
You can see the exact emotion in his eyes and subsequently hear it in his voice.
'you got the road in your voice' - brilliant George!
I have watched hundreds if not thousands of auditions, this one is right on the top of my favorite ones.
This is one of the best auditions I ever heard his voice is so powerful he should win the show just off this first audition he sounds like a superstar already that’s the first time I say that
I started crying when the high notes came out man....my god dude...
He has a really good voice, it sounds so much like the original, great interpretation
I always have loved this song, but now As a father the lyrics truly hit home
Probably the best audition
One of my all time favourite blind auditions
Wow,I never thought that I would hear cat Stevens song on here
Awesome job well sung
Wow, for my son as I’m going through an illness! Thank you!
Speedy recovery!!❤❤
I could listen to this man all day long. beautiful voice
cheers Maggie
Amazing voice! I hope he goes far in this competition
You can feel his emotion, hope he wins. Steve Gillings from Brooklyn NY
I hope he never stops performing! I hope one day I can see him live or buy his album! ( haha yes I said album)
Wow Just amazing, His voice is incredible, nailed it. He sung it like he wrote it. I keep playing it over and over and it gets better every time, well done Sir... (Bloody Awesome you Legend)
A little bit of teary eyes. My heart's listens to this performance.
George had good ears at listening and taste to voice quality.
@Andy Mil any source for that accusation?
ox
And a fetish to chain a guy on the wall against his will and flail him
Best cover ever 🔥🔥😍
Wish you would do a full cover of this song. This is the best ❤
One of the best auditions I have seen, and one of my favourite tracks.
That song obviously meant a lot to this guy. You can tell in his voice. A genuine performance. This brought a tear to my eye and I'm happy the place he went was Australia.
Loved his voice! Hope he he gets far.
Thank You
Beautiful
Wow, I seriously LOVED that! Wow...Loved seeing him break free too.

This song reminds Me of My Dad so much, passed away 4 years ago. But still feels like yesterday.
Sorry for your loss,that's rough.💔

It's alright man, thx.
What an absolute gem. Sounds exactly like Cat Steven’s. Song was meant for fathers and their sons, no doubt the two men there resonated with it immediately. Absolute legend. What an absolutely beautiful song to pick with that voice.
This was a really heartfelt rendition. Believed every single word. Grand.
Amazing!!
I wish I could find this man, just to let him know what an amazing voice he have, and such an amazing song!
He plays in Alice springs, I’ve seen him
Many times in bars
Well Colin, for what my options worth, this has to be the best cover version I have heard, thank you

Lyrics:
It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
I was once like you are now, and I know that it's not easy
To be calm when you've found something going on
But take your time, think a lot
Why, think of everything you've got
For you will still be here tomorrow, but your dreams may not
How can I try to explain? 'Cause when I do he turns away again
It's always been the same, same old story
From the moment I could talk I was ordered to listen
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
It's not time to make a change
Just sit down, take it slowly
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to go through
Find a girl, settle down
If you want you can marry
Look at me, I am old, but I'm happy
All the times that I cried, keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know not me
Now there's a way and I know that I have to go away
I know I have to go
All the times that I've cried
Keeping all the things I knew inside
It's hard, but it's harder to ignore it
Really sounds great.
I'm so in love with his voice
He sounds so much like yusuf (cat Stevens)❤️
kristinas life that's no kidding.if I hadn't been watching it I would have said it was Cat himself
kristinas life he sure does!!
Sounds just like him
Ya.. i'm agree....amazing!
Yes, but a much huskier voice and I love this version
This guy's voice is SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!! The raspiness of it only adds to its beauty. Wow! Finally ... the judges turn around for an awesome voice!!!!!
Amazing voice 👏
This is absolutely Beautiful
I just love listening to this man sing
I never get tired of this audition
Australia is kicking ass this year. Everyone on the show is amazing
I have watched this about...hmm..50 times?! I just can't help but repeat it several times in one go! My favourite ever audition.
Me 200 haha
On loop hundreds of times whilst I work into the evening doing spreadsheet work! 😉 Our beloved Yusuf Islam aka Cat Stevens.
