When you're bad they boo, when you're good they clap, when you're great they clap and cheer. When the songs over and they just stare with jaws dropped until you tell them its ok to lighten up, that is a whole new level.
Made by heart wanna burst with pride to be Canadian and i cried listening to this song. As I have always told all the kids I have taught on the reserves, they have Paradise in their hands.
Incredibly smooth and strong singing and speaking voice. I only heard about him this week (2023) on a CBC radio show. Sounds like a USA country star that i just never heard about even tho he lives in Manitoba i believe.
When you hear one of those song’s you just can’t stop listening to.... this is one of those. What a beautiful song. You could have had the worst possible day and be in the darkest place but for these 4 minutes and 22 second’s you can be anywhere else in the world.
That is beautiful! I totally agree. William Prince has such a calming voice. I'm sure he would be so pleased to know you feel this way about his music.
Breathless is getting a lot of airplay in the UK on BBC Radio 2....10 million listeners. I have never heard a more incredible voice & song in all my 53 years of living. Has a very kind looking face too.
truly amazing..heard you today.....I got closer to the radio and said....who is this guy....every once in awhile in a lifetime you stop everything stops and you hear William Prince You've got it...a true talent...a great voice,great native Canadian..proud of you and your culture......sound tone of johnny cash..
The best tune I've heard in years - This dude's voice is heaven! Brings me to tears every time I listen to it. I can't listen to this in public because I know what will happen.
Keith.....listen to the very end..... they were quiet during the singing for the very same reason that you appreciated their silence.... they had heard him sing songs prior, and they wanted to hear him sing all of this one, as We have :) .....he knew he had the crowd in a trance, it's why he makes the quip about "lightening up"..... They we're "like" Hypnotized, and like a Pro, he snapped them out of it, gently....
The reply from pjlu2 is spot on. What a relief, to be able to hear the song in its beautiful entirety, uninterrupted by any of the usual mindless 'Wooo!' cries of recognition that blight the live music scene. After all, you wouldn't go to a Shakespeare play and yell out 'Wooo!' when an actor declaimed 'To be or not to be ...'. Sometimes a performance is so good that silence is the most appropriate response. This guy is that good.
@@cbcmusic hello in music land, this guy is different class if u or his management company release any gig dates please let me know, he'd sound gd in the sage, Gateshead
Cant wait to hear you in person, you sing songs of my heart so closely... Hurt hurts Love should be fulfilling. God give us both tears and wonder!!! SIOUX @)!*
Like many here I had a chance hearing of 'Breathless' by William Prince. I had to find out more about him and hear his other works. I immediately ordered his CD ('Earthly Days') and play it on repeat.
So hard trying to find the ARTIST of this song. it took my half an hour of googling.. and when it came up it didnt even have his name next to his song. How disappointing...

I like to think when his eyes are closed and he's lost in the lyrics he's remembering someone amazing from his life
The man’s voice is magic.
Absolutely beautiful, good sir.
My sister had the honour of having him sing at her wedding. Dude is a great talent!!
How cool was that, the mans voice can bring tears to your eyes at times
Hes the real deal!!!
I love not only his beautiful voice, but also the lyrical stories and pictures he creates. Wow.

fireflydorion that’s exactly what I thought
Did you invade my brain? Exactly what I thought first time hearing that voice.
I heard this song for the first time today on BBC radio 2. I can't stop playing it now. Brilliant song. And what a voice!
Been a while since a song has had me gripped 2 every word....amazing
Still one of the greatest live performances ever
Listen to him on cbc radio on my way to northern NB to visit my family. I was blown away. Amazing talent.
Blessed to have heard you, my brother ❤️ what a song
Such a beautiful song..... can't stop playing it

Incredible talent

He opened for Dwight Yokum last year at The Burt in Winnipeg MB... was absolutely amazing ♥️. Watch out for this guy :)
❤
totally amazing voice a true Canadian love his cool demeanor......keep it up Willy
My sister now has the Takemine our Dad left us - looks just like the one William uses here. Neat ending William!
I first heard this song in the Skeld Hall at the 2018 Shetland Folk Festival and he had around 200 people mesmerised and in tears.
This seems to be the effect he has on many listeners!
Can't stop listening to ur amazing voice,, keep going William ! U are doing great
WTF!
Why isn't this guy on every Canadian country radio station?
Rotted that I just discovered this after to long.
BRILLIANT!
This song is about the love of my life.
I know we will never be together but you will always have a piece of my heart
same
Great song. What a voice
While I enjoy the crowd being quiet so I can hear, this man just sung out his beautiful soul and couldn’t catch a clap.

The highest complement I could give this man is what I say about Jonny cash . What a voice !
Amazing. Why is today the first time I'm hearing you?!?
