In the UK, he is now nicknamed "THE voice". His vocals are so diverse, he can sing any genre; rock, pop, country, rhythm & blues, house, etc. An incredibly talented singer/songwriter. His other live performance "More" which is live in the Victoria & Albert Museum, London is another incredible live video. The acoustics are a dream :)
A true virtuoso. Love your reaction. Everyone with any musical gene has that look of first shock, raised eyes and smiles. He makes us all smile. And that ohhhh physical feeling.
I saw him first on the Eurivision Song Contest but he's been sharing on Tik Tok and Instagram for a couple of years, also singing at wedding parties, doing gigs etc. He has the most incredible set of pipes and a fantastic sense of humour. In compilations he can sing Freddie Mercury, Bee Gees, Blondie, MJ, Elton. to be honest anybody. To get an idea of his range check out the compliations people have made of his Tik Tok.
I loved watching your face as you listened to this superb song. I came late to the party - never even knew he was the guy who came 2nd at last year's Eurovision. The song he did for that was good, but nowhere hear as good as Riot, which is hands down the best song I have ever heard, and I'm heading into the second half of my sixties. There are a number of versions on RUclips, and currently I favour the orchestral one. The album version is a bit toned down, but the live ones on YT give me shivers every time. Unbeatable. And the lyrics - wow, the UK really needs to listen to the lyrics right now.
I really enjoyed your reaction to Sam. When I've heard him the first time I was impressed by his soulful voice and I was pretty sure that you would like him. He has actually got quite famous with short covers on Tik Tok where he has almost 10 million followers. There are not that many songs on his YT channel yet but at least some more to explore. BTW I think you should always link to the original videos in your desciption and to the artists' channels to give them credit.
Your reaction was so rich...you are not a selfish guy...❤ your face reaction said it all...think the same..and you observed that tremolo ..I guess..and force and passion like of Freddy..thank you for your description...yes...I found Sam from yesterday...I listened a lot and I think he has a voice unbelieveble❤
Never heard from this guy but he is a tiny amazing :-) Interesting song ! You gave me The Warning so I guessed I could listen to this too. He did not disappoint :-) It is great to be surprised! :-)
I think your right, he is so talented and lot of people don’t see it. There’s something mesmerising about him just like how amazing Freddy was - pure talent 👍
The amount of practice that goes into that is enormous insane mastery of his craft and I guess he would even become better. As I saw him first and I didn't know it's about that kind of singing I thought he is a Stoner guy who sings gritty grunge like styles like AIC or Nirvana.
He’s not a stoner guy but he was in some rock bands 10 years ago and his early influences are Iron Maiden, Queen and Sum 41. He has learned a lot since then.
My son got me hooked on him, not too long ago,. He sounds like the love child of Chris Stapleton, Freddy Mercury, and Adele. . if you haven't heard it yet, listen to one of his other original "More". It will give you goosebumps.
You're reaction to this is just as pure as his singing. I actually discovered him at the end of 2021, when one of the contestants in the Show "The Masked Singer" (in Germany) sang this song and I immediately loved the song, so I checked out the original singer. And there he was. Mesmerizing. Only to find out couple of month later, that he would represent the UK in Eurovision. I wish he could have sung Tiny Riot there, but you can only apply with an unreleased song, so he went with "Space man" and came second in the competition. So Eurovision next year will be held in the UK =) Anyway, his career going through the roof since May and I couldn't be happier about it.
I've been following him on tik tok and have been in mad love with him ever since. His voice is phenomenal. and that is an understatement. he made the number 2 spot in the eurovision song contest losing only because of sympathy votes for Ukraine. still number 1 in my heart!❤
Brilliant and intelligent reaction. You are spot on with the Freddie Mercury comparison. Please react to his “Fought and Lost” you will see, or rather hear how spot on you were with this comparison!
Check out Sam's cover of Take Me to Church - an experience and a half. And he has a new release, Mountain. The song that shot him to public attention in Europe, Spaceman, the UK entry for Eurovision, has become a classic. He would have won the contest by a mile except for the massive public vote for Ukraine, for non-musical reasons. Sam is also a genuinely nice guy. Sam's problem has been that of a number of enormously talented singers who can sing almost anything - record labels like to pigeonhole artists, and if you can't be put into a neatly labelled box, they don't know how to market you. Sam took to RUclips, with a startling series of shorts where he sings parts of well-known songs, correctly reckoning that this would get him maximum exposure
You took a chance on me, so I'm going to watch this together with you. So it started with a very nice piano accompaniment so you know you have me already. Singer has a LOT of soul. I could hear a bit of Freddie dynamics in that part. Tiny bit. I was hearing more Motown style of timbre. Style wise the music is far from that genre. Very nice, quite unique. To be honest it was giving me ideas. ✌️💖👍
I have 0 musical talent. As soon as you started speaking about a *not compariosn* i kept repeating Freddie. I felt it too. With 0 musical talent. Its definitely there. His voice makes me tear up!
Having had the pleasure of meeting Sam, I can tell you he as genuine and humble as his voice is amazing! He's a star!

Clearly not your typical UK Eurovision entry, this man got some chops
5:23 That's it. That is the face you make when soneone is absolutely incredible and it just hits you deeply.
I love Sam Ryder, he has such a pure voice and is a really lovely, peace loving and down to earth guy. ❤
I had the same thought when I heard this song for the 1st time, specially when he uses distortion sounds very similar to Freddie's voice. He's amazing
I.didn't.realize Fredie was a good singer because he was so repulsive . Now Inknow he was.
A true virtuoso. Love your reaction. Everyone with any musical gene has that look of first shock, raised eyes and smiles. He makes us all smile. And that ohhhh physical feeling.
OMG @2:45 that’s exactly what I said when I first heard this song. Seems to have the range and ability of Freddie. 🙏

I am blown away

One of the most amazing voices I’ve ever heard!!
WOWWWWW LOVE THIS GUY!!!
Sam Ryder ladies and gentlemen lol. This is one of my favourite songs of his.
His song, more live from the V and A is astounding, give it a listen you won't regret it

MARVELOUS...
I think he has a voice of an angel 😇. This is and More are great songs
I just found him yesterday. He is the 1st singer I've fallen in love with since I fell in love with Steve Perry. I wish he would sing Open Arms
He did a performance singing a Queen song and it was incredible! You need to find it. His voice and stage presence fit the song perfectly.
Your reaction was so rich...you are not a selfish guy...❤ your face reaction said it all...think the same..and you observed that tremolo ..I guess..and force and passion like of Freddy..thank you for your description...yes...I found Sam from yesterday...I listened a lot and I think he has a voice unbelieveble❤

Wow, he's a great singer and I also like the song. Too bad that only reactions to the big names get many views. :-(
He's amazing
Have you heard him sing (MORE) live at the V&H amazing
I think your right, he is so talented and lot of people don’t see it. There’s something mesmerising about him just like how amazing Freddy was - pure talent 👍

Sam Ryder is a real TikTok Legend ...
Sam Ryder is definitely the Freddie Mercury of this generation.
Loved your review...first time hearing this song too! Subscribing!
My son got me hooked on him, not too long ago,. He sounds like the love child of Chris Stapleton, Freddy Mercury, and Adele. . if you haven't heard it yet, listen to one of his other original "More". It will give you goosebumps.
To this day this song still isn't a single played on the radio.
Yes
A beautiful class 5 hurricane of talent, his power vocal tones remind me of Freddy Mercury absolutely
When I heard of him 2years ago it immediately hit me him singing is great

Hi my name is Penny I am using my husband's account. Listen to his song "July" ...
@1:25 literally everyone's reaction when they first hear him lol
Listen to Sam's song 'More' at the V&A. It is a masterpiece.
When he sings the Amen song is the best. Sam would be a dynamite preacher.
Sam does excellent Freddy M.!
You are right on the Freddy Mercury part, in fact he sang a The Show Must Go On part and what a way to show his voice.
check out his song whirlwind and his cover of set you free
Whos here after Eurovision??
U mean he sounds like a monk? Or a choir boy.
He has a high register.
@1:58 well he is so handsome from my opinion 😝 and great voice
Should do the next James bond movie soundtrack 😯
Update: please read!
Sam’s song “SPACE MAN” just got 2nd place in the Eurovision Song Contest! ( one of europes biggest song contests )
