HOLY SHIT!!!! This guy brought tears to my eyes,he looks exactly like my uncle who passed away in an accident yrs ago...Everything about him is like seeing my uncle.
I love this guy he introduced me to Amy winehouse and I love him since. I will always watch this video, and seeing how things have change for him now, I'm so happy for him.
+Shamas A This was Matt's backup song and they ran out of time because he sang another song first (which was edited out). He finished the song about 3 years later on his Unplugged tour, tho ;-) Try "matt cardle no good Lowry Manchester" [ YyHlyvzupuk ]
Alona Maureal That was one and a half YEARS ago - for less than a month!! He had a full tour in early 2014 with his 3rd album, is on his 4th album now, rocked the joint in The Lowry just last Wednesday AND will be doing the lead role of "Huey" in the West End musical "Mempis" from July up until October. He's on twitter and facebook. Follow him and you'll be up to date in no time.
It's 2 years ago today since we first saw this audition- What an amazing 2 years. I've seen him live 3 times this year and he was stunning each time. Can't wait for album 2 and the new single.
Still is, but managed to get way more relaxed in front of crowds. Now, you amost can't shut him up, he got so chatty LOL Look up "Matt Cardle Ten Ten Glee Club" (the 5m20s long one) [ zfKC_qfWhyE ]
Currently, Matt's actually starring as the lead of "Huey Calhoun" in the West End musical "Memphis" next to Beverley Knight. His acting debut went down a storm with audiences. Reviewers are raving not only about his powerful vocals but also about his compelling and quirky stage presence and his bang-on comical timing. Watching this back ... who da thunk it, eh? :) Matt will also be releasing his 4th solo album towards the end of October.
***** Just perfect then. Haven't listened to mainstream (i.e. what's being pushed in the charts) for over 20 years now. Too samey, too repetitive, too distorted, too autotuned, just too desperately tweaked and bent to appeal to as many people as possible. First I put it down to old age showing in my late teens. Since I discovered Matt, though, I found that it's the music business that has changed. Me, not so much. I like to be able to tell who is actually lending their voice to a song without having to look it up cause it sounds too damn similar to everything/everyone else. I don't even care which musical style it is, as long as it's a distinctive voice that is used as an instrument in its own right. That's probably why I think that everything "mainstream" massively went downhill when Freddie Mercury bit the dust :( If not losing one's individuality is now considered old-fashioned.... yeah, well, then I am old-fashioned. And I'm very happy that there are still people in this world who also actually care about their individuality.
+Julia68yt Thanks so much for posting this update on him. Here in the US news of him is scare. I'm so happy that he is doing well and utilizing other talents!!
You can just tell by Simon's face that he passed his audition. When you have an ear for music you can tell right away if the person has an unique voice and stays in tune. When I first heard Matt sing this song, I felt in my gut that he was going to be in the finals. He is amazing!
Can't get enough of Matt. I've told everybody I meet in person or online about him. He is captivating to say the least. I play his music every night. If he is not one of the top stars now he will be. Love his human laid back demeanor - a simple painter who simply wanted a chance to show what he could do. He got it and he indeed did it. God bless him for the joy he brings me and numerous others too I am sure. I am 72.
Almost. But not quite the background Matt came from ;-) A "simple" musician who had to do odd jobs on the side to pay for studio time and production costs because his music wasn't yet paying for itself. The show just refused to introduce him as such. He was flat out told "We can't say that on air" and changed his bio to a more talent-show-compliant narrative. But if you watch the intros to his "Judges houses" performance you'll notice they already start calling him "gigging musician". And later when he does "First time" in week 5, they very quickly flash some pics from his former bands during the intro, too. If you haven't heard his pre-xfactor music, search for "Seven Summers" and "Darwyn". You'll find a couple of music videos and also playlists of their full albums. Great acoustic and electro rock stuff. Even more to share with friends :)
I had to watch this audition again and again. He was at his very best from the start. What aura. I sure hope he doesn't lose it among glitz and glitter.
The guy's got talent!! I enjoy listening to him....almost everything he does is outstanding and I hope that he makes it. It seems that he can really do justice to the old songs (which I love best) and to new songs. I really wish him well !!!.
It's so amazing to see someone like him succeed. Wow theres this enormous smile on my face just to see how incredibly happy this made him cause he's just so humble and awkward in the cutest way
![Joel Goncalves - Auditions - The X Factor Australia 2012 night 2 [FULL]](/img/n.gif)
I've never heard a guy sing this, but he made it his own.
He did the full version on one of his tours, too :) Check it out "Matt Cardle Union Chapel full concert" (3 songs in)
What a talent. A man with a voice as pure as gold. A matter of brightness.
Matt cardle
HOLY SHIT!!!! This guy brought tears to my eyes,he looks exactly like my uncle who passed away in an accident yrs ago...Everything about him is like seeing my uncle.

I love this guy he introduced me to Amy winehouse and I love him since. I will always watch this video, and seeing how things have change for him now, I'm so happy for him.
Good for youuu n.m 💖
let him finish the song dummy . that was beautifully song and performance
+Shamas A This was Matt's backup song and they ran out of time because he sang another song first (which was edited out). He finished the song about 3 years later on his Unplugged tour, tho ;-) Try "matt cardle no good Lowry Manchester" [ YyHlyvzupuk ]
if he complete song started crying simon,that's why!
Outstanding! Best I've heard!
I thought the same thing since day one and every time I see this video…
I like him a lot
It's 2015...we need some more Matt Cardle.
TheAmbSteve To me we will have a lot more Matt Cardle in 2015.
I think he still in rehab. Now
But I still love him and support.

He's amazing! A gem mistakenly thrown into a pit he didn't belong in.
+Misty Sayitlikeitis He escaped the pit a long time ago, tho ;-)
You should hear his version The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face.
+Christy Morgan Oh I did and it was beautiful!
+Misty Sayitlikeitis :-)
AGREEABLE..
Though I'm a Malaysian but more than 100 times I watch this audition a real stunning vocal...
It's 2 years ago today since we first saw this audition- What an amazing 2 years. I've seen him live 3 times this year and he was stunning each time. Can't wait for album 2 and the new single.
I really like the very last part. I like the way he laughs he seems such a nice person, very humble.
Still is, but managed to get way more relaxed in front of crowds. Now, you amost can't shut him up, he got so chatty LOL
Look up "Matt Cardle Ten Ten Glee Club" (the 5m20s long one) [ zfKC_qfWhyE ]

Well, the programme pretty clearly stated "where he came from". It's not like they swept it under the rug or something LOL :)
BTW FYI Just last month Matt has been voted this seasons "Best West End Debut" by West End Frame. He _really_ smashed it :)
he's so adorable and i love his voice more than any other iv'e heard.
I don't get tired of watching this
You can just tell by Simon's face that he passed his audition. When you have an ear for music you can tell right away if the person has an unique voice and stays in tune. When I first heard Matt sing this song, I felt in my gut that he was going to be in the finals. He is amazing!
hes so good and what a charming humble personality
Gorgeous melodious voice..
Love this audition., x
anne pat Just this audition? You know what he is doing now?
