I'm cuban and of course I love salsa, merengue, etc. But WOW I have to say that country music ufffff !!! Kevin you not only brought tears to eyes but also show me that country music can really rock your world!!! Love it!!!! Good Luck!!!
I NEVER get tired of watching this video. They were all laughing at him. But after he started to sing, you couldn't hear a pin drop...his awesome voice blew them away!
wow........Kevin is the epitome of true humanity here.....simple and humble with deep compassion and emotion.......and sings from his soul as he has a huge affect on the audience........great job....
I love auditions like these because it shows us to not judge a person by their appearance and education level. It's people like this who are so humble and they don't realize how good they are. It also shows us to not judge a person, we all can be cynical at times and be totally surprised once we realize they are actually good at singing, talent etc.
"Its nice just to sit out at the porch you know, quiet, its a good place to gather all your thoughts. You know, even count the stars." a real down to earth guy with a heart, thank you kevin skinner for giving me hope in humantiy.
Kevin skinner is awesome. He goes out on stage and everyone laughs at him, then he blows them away with that perormance and ends up winning the show. He deserved to win and his debut single is awesome. Country music needs a new artist like him.
im from Mayfield and i go to school with Kevins son. There all nice people and down to earth. Kevin wont change the way he lived before, just becaues he won AGT. your great Kevin :)
Even with a headache now, Watching and listening to him makes me cry. He is so good! the plus point is that he is humble. It's so heartwarming! Awesome that he won(:
I almost cried when I first heard him. He sings with such sincerity and he's so genuine and humble yet confindent in who he is. He such an amazing person!
he simply singing shut up everyone. not silent. opened the mouth of all, if you notice when he starts to sing all of them open their mouth so much talent that you have
Never underestimate a country boy with a guitar. I like many of the girls in the video, thouht this guy was pretty funny in the beginning. Of course none of us were laughing in the end. Someone like this really makes you reevaluate your priorities in regards to guys.
I probably have seen this at least 50 times now (since this first came out) and I still cry every time I see this. It's just the combination of how down-to-earth he is, the lyrics of the song, the guitar!
When he sings he gives an expression in both his face, and in his voice where you can actually believe what he's singing. He's not just singing a song, He is telling a story. with pure heart and emotion. It's the singers like this that this world needs now-a-days. If we had more inspirational people like kevin skinner i think we'd be living in a better place
im pisanu and im from Thailand, i never get bored watching this blog, i like the way you overcome it man, from the begining you enter and till the end, kevin still is kevin nothing change, i like that, i too felt moody, everyone laughin and kind of looking down on kevin, EVEN THE JUDGE were laughing but you prove to everyone that, you can and you are AGT winner and yes you deserve it man...you rock!!!
this is one of those truly glorious TV moments. this guy moved me. and it just goes to show you that things aren't always what they seem. all those ppl who laughed sure had an awakening when he began to sing. love him!!
Truely Amazing - I don't even like country music but I loved Kevin's performance and what a beautiful amazing song as well. This is the difference when one sings from the heart and to please, not just for money. Thanxs Kevin. I wish you all the best in your life. Peace brother.
He hypnotized people with the magic spell from his mouth. A humble soul that truly can speak thru song that stab directly to people heart. What a great singer....
OMG...I almost cry when he started to sing... s'how there's something so genuine, emotional n touchy w/ his performance and voice. Very humble...Kevin Skinner is a STAR****.
i knew he was gonna win as soon as he started singing and everybody was dead silent and just listening entintley. You could tell the emotion he had just by listening to him. AWESOME! A better guy could not have won
My gf asked me if we could never go to bed mad at each other. I said of course and why. She said because if one of us didn't wake up then our last memories would be of angry and pain. So if tomorrow never comes i hope she knows how much i love her
This shows that you cannot measure someone the way he/she dress or look unless you go closer to the person feel within you. He sings great and his genuine attitude shows in his face.
I love your voice. It's so emotional and unique. It has the ability to capture everyone and despite the stereotypes, you are able to grab America's hearts in our own homes. You deserve to have won and spread the joy your voice gives to people. I love you!
It's been nearly four years now and Kevin is still a standout. He won the entire season with his intro and this short song. What followed in later weeks didn't even matter. I wish the producers had allowed him to play his finger style of guitar like he did the first week.
Facing everyone who laugh at him, alone, in the center stage. Silenced the skeptics by winning their hearts with a genuine, big HEARTS. A humble, sincere, and a brave guy who make my eyes watery from the first moment he has been ridiculed.
What a fantastic guy...so pure and simple...and the song touches everytime my hearth...i love you kevin thank you very much for this!!! Peace and love everytime man!
IS SO IMPOSSIBLEEEEEE NOT TO CRY! IT WAS JUST GREAT I NEVER IMAGINE HE CAN TOUCH MY HEART. LIKE THEY SAID NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY A COVER, CUZ MAYBE THAT BOOK U DISLIKE IT MIGHT BE IN YOUR FAVORITES. HE WAS SO AMAZING! TONE OF THE VOICE IS JUST PERFECT! BRAVOOOOO!
I love how he shuts everyone up when he starts singing. They're all laughing at him when they hear his accent. But they sure took him serious when he started singing. Excellent job.
He´s SOOOOO proud and truth of what he is!!! so honest, so human! got damn I missed that in like 80 % of the people I meet on the streets or out in the society. he play hes music so with passion and ALL in the audience got that SILLY "instant moment" ,felt comfortable because all around them thought and judged Kevin the same even before he´s audution.
If only the world were like this guy. Finding so much joy and meaning in life by just sitting out on a porch. Not worrying about all these material things and our petty problems that we think are huge obstacles. He probably loves his life more that a billionaire with a mansion, cars, and all sorts of women, and that's exactly how it should be.
i recall watching this for the first time live and how much it touched me. but, i thought it was just something with me. then i thought , you never know lets see what others think and i went to youtube and found his performance and seen it was not just me. great performance!
yup never heard the song until he sang its actually he owns this one elvis did alot of songs that other artist did org and became his this is one is hard to hold back the tears thank you kevin.
This guy reminds me of a young Johnny Cash, he might not be the greatest singer but who cares. He POORS his HEART out and everyone feels it..... that's music :-) I wish him the best :-)
this was the first thing I ever voted on, and I'm 29. Took my breath away.
I'm cuban and of course I love salsa, merengue, etc. But WOW I have to say that country music ufffff !!! Kevin you not only brought tears to eyes but also show me that country music can really rock your world!!! Love it!!!! Good Luck!!!
this is absolutely a tear-dropping performance...I just love it!
I NEVER get tired of watching this video. They were all laughing at him. But after he started to sing, you couldn't hear a pin drop...his awesome voice blew them away!
me too...

Its not about the voice, it's about the heart and he showed that!
He made me cry when I watched it the first time. Such sincerity in his voice and face.
Everytime I hear his voice I get chills and tears in my eyes... he is amazing...
i was just watching TV in HongKong last night, his performance brought my tears in my eyes ! He chose the right song which gave ppl so heart-touching.
im from Mayfield and i go to school with Kevins son. There all nice people and down to earth. Kevin wont change the way he lived before, just becaues he won AGT.

Lost count of how many times I've watched this video....there's just something about him and that song that's truly genuine

this is what we call class. no wonder no one recognizes it anymore: it so often chooses not to grace us with its presence.
So very true Tommy,even after14 years
He hypnotized people with the magic spell from his mouth. A humble soul that truly can speak thru song that stab directly to people heart. What a great singer....
OMG...I almost cry when he started to sing... s'how there's something so genuine, emotional n touchy w/ his performance and voice. Very humble...Kevin Skinner is a STAR****.
I love people like kevin. A nice simple person with a simple life and music that can capture anyones heart.
Beautiful
such a sweet man and such a beautiful voice, almost made me cry... so glad he won.
Wow the crowd is just totally stunned. That is such an awesome performance. Just goes to show that you should never judge a book by it's cover.
This is my favorite of all of his AGT performances. Has me in tears every time.
i knew he was gonna win as soon as he started singing and everybody was dead silent and just listening entintley. You could tell the emotion he had just by listening to him. AWESOME! A better guy could not have won

This guy is soo lovely ... he gives me goosebumps all over ...Bless him ...He deserves everything he has now :))))
one of the most honest men the world has ever seen.
I agree with the sentiment that he is one of the most honest men
My gf asked me if we could never go to bed mad at each other. I said of course and why. She said because if one of us didn't wake up then our last memories would be of angry and pain. So if tomorrow never comes i hope she knows how much i love her
This shows that you cannot measure someone the way he/she dress or look unless you go closer to the person feel within you. He sings great and his genuine attitude shows in his face.
Kevin had already won the show with his first song! He was incredible here. Just love this man!
I love your voice. It's so emotional and unique. It has the ability to capture everyone and despite the stereotypes, you are able to grab America's hearts in our own homes. You deserve to have won and spread the joy your voice gives to people. I love you!

I like this man, very noble-minded. He makes me cry every time I see the video
He's wonderful. When I first heard him sing, he touched my heart. I got upset when people first saw him and ridiculed him but look at him now... WOW.
I don't know what made you saying that, but a performance, personality he has shown on the stage is one of the best I have seen by far.
IS SO IMPOSSIBLEEEEEE NOT TO CRY! IT WAS JUST GREAT I NEVER IMAGINE HE CAN TOUCH MY HEART. LIKE THEY SAID NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY A COVER, CUZ MAYBE THAT BOOK U DISLIKE IT MIGHT BE IN YOUR FAVORITES. HE WAS SO AMAZING! TONE OF THE VOICE IS JUST PERFECT! BRAVOOOOO!

The moment he opened his mouth, tears just started to come out
Wow. True talent comes from the most humble of individuals.
He´s SOOOOO proud and truth of what he is!!! so honest, so human! got damn I missed that in like 80 % of the people I meet on the streets or out in the society. he play hes music so with passion and ALL in the audience got that SILLY "instant moment" ,felt comfortable because all around them thought and judged Kevin the same even before he´s audution.

This guy looked so funny when he came on and started talking. But your jaw dropped and were left stunned when he started singing. Phenomenal!
If only the world were like this guy. Finding so much joy and meaning in life by just sitting out on a porch. Not worrying about all these material things and our petty problems that we think are huge obstacles. He probably loves his life more that a billionaire with a mansion, cars, and all sorts of women, and that's exactly how it should be.
