A few months ago, I revealed the reason I hadn't been talking to one of my friends. He said, "You've been able to make time for a Fucking clown and not me?" I saw he obviously didn't understand, so I showed him this. He then said, "But clowns don't sing." I almost laughed in his face. I then replied with ,"No, Andrew, Puddles doesn't sing. Puddles puts on a performance."
@@th3_g0th60 - Dear Amélie, good comment in despite of one detail : Puddles is not a clown, he performs an Arlequin which is an art of renaissance. So he wears only white and black and can sing and play a guitar, better would be a tradicional bandolin as they used in the past.
This guy doesn’t just sing. He also paints a picture of a life story. And I could feel the story in his eyes before he even speaks a word. Puddles Pity Party, I am I huge fan.
"This guy" is also a Hungarian national now living in Texas, who (instead of posting nature photos) continually trolled me in my Nature Photography community on MeWe, bashing, trashing and insisting on debating United States foreign policy with me. I actually had to block him from my community and MeWe feed, when he failed to take the hint, after I suggested he return to Hungary if he so despises the United States. I am not a huge fan of some of the USA's history of blundered foreign policy, but I have far better things to do with my time than listen to hypocrital whining from someone who has come to the U.S. to enjoy the "good life." I just wish his videos would stop popping up on my You Tube page. 😑
I'm here listening once again, getting all emotional over a 6' 8" flipping clown with the voice of an angel. And the best bit is... I just don't care. He's truly superb.
Hey, Vicki, I'm 72 and I can't get enough of him. I listen to him every day. He makes me smile and just as easily he makes me cry. What a guy. Or clown. Or man. ENTERTAINER.
I'm 61, and he has given me a reason to actually listen to someone sing again. So few artists that are genuine. Oh I know he sings other people's songs, but he does it in a way that in unique and satisfying, yet gives me the desire to hear him sing more..
There is not any song that this guy can't nail. His voice is absolutely amazing. Everything from the national anthem to Blink 182 to Johnny Cash. Unbelievable talent. Would like to see him in Phantom of the Opera. Awesome, Awesome powerful voice.
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU DO..... WHEN THE MAN COMES AROUND, BY JOHNNY CASH...THE MESSAGE IT HAS COULD ONLY BE CONVEYED BY VERY FEW, WITH SUCH SOUL, MIKE, I THINK YOU WOULD TOUCH AN AWFUL LOT OF SOULS....AND WAKE A LOT OF SINFUL PEOPLE UP....THANK YOU FOR THE JOY YOU HAVE BROUGHT TO A DYING 67 YEAR OLD MAN. I HAVE COPD, AND PRAY TO THE LORD TO WATCH OVER ME EVERY NIGHT. 1 OUT OF 4 PEOPLE WITH COPD DIE IN THEIR SLEEP. IM PREPARED TO MEET GOD, AND HAVE REPENTED FOR MY MANY SINS. GOD BLESS YOU, BROTHER.... I HOPE TO LISTEN TO YOU IN HEAVEN. IN JESUS NAME,AMEN
I cannot believe how many times I have listened to his various songs since he appeared on AGT. His personality, tonality, passion, visual inflections, and delivery are a fresh turn for an artist seeking to find his audience. May he succeed beyond his wildest hopes.
I think they call him puddles because everybody ends up crying a river ..how awesome he sings And the emotions he draws out of his audience. And I pity anybody who doesn't have the experience
Thank you for an extremely awesome rendition of a song that came from a phase of the Bee Gees that many people never know, because the first time they heard of the Bee Gees was when they started doing disco. Let's face it, the Bee Gees were awesome and every genre that they went into. And this is a great cover of a great one from my personal favorite musical phase of theirs.
Actually for some of us old timers...we knew this as one of the top 3 or 4 instantly recognizable BeeGees hits. It was #6 on the American singles charts and got massive radio play.
i wish i had found this song when i lost my partner of 40 years passed he loved this song and i sure he would have loved it so i send this to you bobby i love and miss you so much...
I will never forget when he opened with this song at my first P3 show 2 years ago, hearing it live was absolutely stunning and literally knocked the wind out of me, leaving me fighting to hold back sobbing. No joke. Everyone must try their best to see him live sometime, trust me!
When I liatened to the original by Bee gees, I didn't get it; that time it was just another song. Now I got what the song was actually meant to be. You are amazing!
I once saw a Bee Gee's documentary and looks like this song is after Robin had left the BeeGees to persue a solo career. Later he figured out that it was a bad move and returned to the group and wrote this song about his regret.
At 1:23 puddles shows the power of his voice. Very few can blast out that much power.. Puddles can invoke such incredible emotion with his amazing voice. I loved every second of this song
Oh my God, I just can't get enough of you Puddles. Your voice, your emotions and the soul you put into songs just makes them sound better. You are a certified artist, a gifted interpreter who turns classic songs into something sublime. Keep doing what you do, keep pushing the boundary, and keep inspiring people to love music even more.
1:23. Holy shit!!! Fantastically phenomenal!!! Puddles is the real deal. How many people hear Puddles sing a song so clearly, it shows you the real meaning of the song?
I’m a little late to the ‘ Party ‘ Ive only just found this amazing talent and now I’m mesmerised by him. I couldn’t believe how expressive his performance was, but what a stunning voice now I can’t get enough 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 🏴❤
Gotta totally hit the golden buzzer for this brilliant performer! Lots of great memories watching him on America's Got Talent! He deserves to be totally back on their greatest hits!
Puddles, could you take a sonic look at the Maverick's songbook? The song, "Neon Blue" would be like some of your Roy Orbison treatments, but more so. You could stretch into western, and country influences.
Watching this video should be a metaphor for life. Don't prejudge, Don't try to "figure it all out", Just absorb the experience let become part of your collective!
ive worked in music promotion dor 17 years, this is one of the most amazing artists who understand completely the motif and argument of his art, his voice, deliver, presentation are a perfect sync and crafted.
the camera work on this video is great! what a performance! no one can get this kind of emotion (and comic moments) out of a song like this but Puddles
"Big Mike ,"you're a genius for creating the Sad Clown Puddles Pity Party man. I just found out about you this morning and have been watching all of your videos. I feel better everytime I watch you sing. I hope you win the AGT 2017. It's time for you to shine ! You deserve it !
I just played this for my wife to listen to on my iPhone because she hadn't heard it yet, and of course, she loved it. But, I also wanted her to hear it for this very specific reason: I am 57 years old, and I can count on one hand the number of times in my lifetime in which I've heard a cover of a song outshine the original.THIS, for me, without a doubt, is one of those times. I don't care that you were kicked around since you were born. I don't care if you think you're a woman's man, or how you use your walk. Step aside, Bee Gees. Puddles wears that Crown for a reason.👑
What puddle's had it is rightousness. God made our bodies too hold two spirits. A good one or the other. If you choose the bad. You will become blinded,. A person has lied to himself. He or she lost their self
The voice of this dude is out of this world, sensational! For anyone that haven't seen, he's this good or even better in "Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox"
I am 48 and i never in my life seen anyone as orignal as you everyday i have to listen to different songs you sing i havent listen to much music in a good 10 years now everyday i have to listen to alot of your songs.sometime 4 or 5 times in a row i listen to just one song 😁
Wow! Operatic it is. Emotional, focused, grand in its peaks. It is so wonderful to resurrect that great early Bee Gees hit. I used to listen to my 45 of it back in the 70s. I am more impressed and gratified with every song, Puddles. You are a gem.
This guy might be a clown.
But he's no joke.
Bob Sirunkle your brief comment has geniality in it Sir.
Puddles inspired me to keep living, no joke.😑
A few months ago, I revealed the reason I hadn't been talking to one of my friends.

@@th3_g0th60 sea boo play ...
his visual performances take the songs to a higher level than the music alone.
I totally agree 💯
They don't teach this shit in clown school.
I would / will pay my hard earned money to see this man and his show...
@@justinbennett9998 🥳
He is one of the best ever.
He takes you past what is being sung. 👍
Bad ass singer with soul. He doesn't just sing, he delivers an experience.
Bob Panerio you are right. This song will never be the same for me again. It is pure genius!
Bob Panerio Right the fuck ON. That's it exactly!! 👍👑🎶
Well said... "You have Spoken"! =D

Yes, it is indeed an experience. So is waterboarding.
This guy doesn’t just sing. He also paints a picture of a life story. And I could feel the story in his eyes before he even speaks a word. Puddles Pity Party, I am I huge fan.
I am too
Am 3

Me, too.
Puddles. Period. Mystique is mystique.
Im 62yrs and I love this guy.

This man is an alien ! He has mesmerised me since I recently discovered him and I can’t get my head around how unbelievably entertaining he is!
I second that!! He may not be an 'alien' but he definitely is "Other Worldy" ... I'm not sure what the difference is. 🤔
Or how damn brilliantly he sings man.
Same here. He's completely mesmerizing
Beau Bear exactly my experience! Mesmerized is just what happened!
Every single person on the planet should do themselves a favour and listen to Puddles at least once in their lives.
There is not any song that this guy can't nail. His voice is absolutely amazing. Everything from the national anthem to Blink 182 to Johnny Cash. Unbelievable talent. Would like to see him in Phantom of the Opera. Awesome, Awesome powerful voice.
Oh, he would be an amazing Phantom !!!
Look at his histrionic swings, it's almost hypnotic. I love this guy
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOU DO.....
WHEN THE MAN COMES AROUND,
BY JOHNNY CASH...THE MESSAGE IT HAS COULD ONLY BE CONVEYED BY VERY FEW, WITH SUCH SOUL, MIKE,
I THINK YOU WOULD TOUCH AN AWFUL LOT OF SOULS....AND WAKE A LOT OF SINFUL PEOPLE UP....THANK YOU FOR THE JOY YOU HAVE BROUGHT TO A DYING 67 YEAR OLD MAN.

IN JESUS NAME,AMEN
IM FINDING OUT...SOME SONGS CAN BE IMITATED...BUT NEVER DUPLICATED...
AND WILL NEVER BE IMPROVED UPON.
THIS IS ONE...REFLECTIONS OF MY LIFE
@@andrewstallings5942...fantastic idea.
Puddles, you bring tears to this 65 year old man who grew up with the Bee Gees.
Could not imagine anyone delivering a greater performance of this song. Everything about this is perfect.
Check out, Faith No More does a version.
This guy is a fucking genius.
Puddles is a genius and one of the worlds best singers!
He sings with his whole body. Love him so much! Giggled at the end...
I too giggled at the end, so distraught.....LOL!
The little sobs and awkward silences are as entertaining as the singing. It's a whole package of something amazing for which I have no words. 😆
He's a clown!
This song is absolutely perfect in terms of tempo and range for Puddles powerful singing voice.
I cannot believe how many times I have listened to his various songs since he appeared on

@@anodyne57 I agree. They had some great songs before their disco phase
Finally someone who gives this song the voice it deserves! This is THE ultimate version for me.
faith no more does an amazing cover of this song also :D
Robin Gibb did a nice job the first time around. Perhaps you have missed hearing the Bee Gees.
Rubbish
@@RicTic66 what is rubbish?
Bee Gees wrote it, but someone finally gave it the voice it needed.
Oh. My. God. Puddles, never change. The world needs you. Absolutely amazing.
This Dude is awesome i love it and i'm 70 years old rock on.
72
I'm a 64 yr old die hard rocker, but this guy really speaks to me. Most of my friends just don't get it, well too bad for them...
This artist is just AMAZING! Overwhelming!
awwwwwww Puddles your voice... you make grown men cry
I was lucky enough to have seen the show, on the best cruise for my 70th birthday. I also met his beautiful family.
i wish i had found this song when i lost my partner of 40 years passed he loved this song and i sure he would have loved it so i send this to you bobby i love and miss you so much...
so sorry for your lose..
i also am so sorry, this song is my favorite puddles song and I know Bobby hears it Mr. Wade.
Wade sorry for your loss. This is a truly beautiful rendition of this song
I'm sorry for your loss. this song is epic
So sorry for your loss...
I just found this after watching BeeGees video. This is an amazing version. What a voice and what a presentation.
Absolute and unadulterated genius.
This talent of bringing of soul sense to any lost songs.
I will never forget when he opened with this song at my first P3 show 2 years ago, hearing it live was absolutely stunning and literally knocked the wind out of me, leaving me fighting to hold back sobbing. No joke. Everyone must try their best to see him live sometime, trust me!
I love’u. Are so original and your Voice is great
I am going to see him live, Mark my words. It will haopen
He's coming to the Queens Hall in Edinburgh on the 29th April, I have tickets, and can't wait to see him..
Your doing the best you could and I enjoyed watching you perform. You are unique and there will never be anyone like you. Thank-you.
I am seeing him on the 9th in Nebraska. The whole family is stoked.
When I liatened to the original by Bee gees, I didn't get it; that time it was just another song. Now I got what the song was actually meant to be. You are amazing!

beeharbour whatever you do never watch his non-Puddles videos then. Do anything but your homework but complain anyway.
This very moment reveals the song.
Puddles, you dear darling man, you bring so much joy to us! Thank you, thank you, thank you for the light you cast on a world which needs you so much.
Воистину так !
Puddles lleva las canciones a otro nivel. Supremo.
Now that is what I call performance art!
I’m a great fan he makes my day
At 1:23 puddles shows the power of his voice. Very few can blast out that much power.. Puddles can invoke such incredible emotion with his amazing voice. I loved every second of this song
Jolly Good Show ! I must say, it was quite delightful ! They threw a little western twang on the guitar too 🎸
He takes a profound lyrics and puts them with his unique voice and extraordinary acting on the level of great performance. Always, a job well done.
Oh my God, I just can't get enough of you Puddles. Your voice, your emotions and the soul you put into songs just makes them sound better.

Such a fantastic reproduction of an already wonderful song. Please Puddles, Never stop doing what you give to all your fans.
PUDDLES MAKES MY HEART SMILE! 💖 😢
I LOVE YOU, PUDDLES!
"Til I finally died." Fingers doing plus signs over the eyes. Love that part.
I’m a little late to the ‘ Party ‘ Ive only just found this amazing talent and now I’m mesmerised by him. I couldn’t believe how expressive his performance was, but what a stunning voice now I can’t get enough 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 🏴❤
Gotta totally hit the golden buzzer for this brilliant performer! Lots of great memories watching him on America's Got Talent! He deserves to be totally back on their greatest hits!
simon does not like the fact that he wheres a clown outfit ??? is the show not about Talent ??? That he has in Abundance !!!
THE ONE AND ONLY PUDDLES! LOVE YOU!
the more videos I see of him, makes me feel that he is a genius and he always touches something inside me.
After Faith No More this one is my favourite...man,you got powerful voice with no doubt at all !!!
It always works because Puddles is so sadly serious as he mocks emotions, and himself. That's irony and pathos.
Puddles, could you take a sonic look at the Maverick's songbook? The song, "Neon Blue" would be like some of your Roy Orbison treatments, but more so. You could stretch into western, and country influences.
Watching this video should be a metaphor for life. Don't prejudge, Don't try to "figure it all out", Just absorb the experience let become part of your collective!
Great, sad and loving at the same time. Very powerful and he has a way of capturing one's attention and heart immediately.
Play my heart, Puddles. Make me cry. For the WHOLE WORLD.
THANK YOU.
LADY DI
My favorite Bee Gees (Robin Gibb) song always. Puddles owned it with an alternate delivery.
Thanks, P.
Awesome voice!
ive worked in music promotion dor 17 years, this is one of the most amazing artists who understand completely the motif and argument of his art, his voice, deliver, presentation are a perfect sync and crafted.
I'm glad to be alive the same time you are.
DITTO my friend !!!
I really wish I could "like" this more than once, the numbers would be HUGE
Saw him when he came to Houston recently. Absolutely amazing performance. This is on my 'must see' each and every opportunity.
Radish.
SO much damn talent!!!
Even songs I normally wouldn't listen to, your versions touch my soul. Absolutely beautiful.
Do this one too for America's Got Talent. It shows your wonderful vocal ability with the dramatic appearance that is all you!
Amazing song, the original is one of the best and he nailed it.
I love watching this guy, he's GREAT. Not only is his singing great but the way he present himself while singing is the whole package.
I have a new favorite singer who covers songs that immediately become his own!!!
Puddles you're a gem of an act and the voice you possess is remarkable.
I Love Puddles He Puts His Whole Being Into His Work All Emotions are Captured 😊😢😮😂❤❤. Pete sr
American Got Talent 2017 bought me here!
Gosh, I love this guy!
This clown’s voice brings me to tears. in a good way, of course.

What an expression..! Love his voice with his expression. Very special..Somehow his sadness expressions wash my sorrows like rainy day drive.
He's bigger than AGT.
