Fun fact: His older brother Ryley made it to The Voice Semi-Finals under Team Niall! He never mentioned that his brother is famous. He wanted everybody to know him and him only. Bravo 👏
Shows like this won't usually mention if someone has a relative or have appeared on another talent show themselves. They want to maintain the illusion that they have no idea who is auditioning even though a lot of the talents are invited to "audition" by production.
For 14 years old! Impressive! That boy can sing his heart out. What an amazing rendition of You Don’t Own Me. This kid is gonna be a star in the making.
His voice is so high pitched that you might mistake him for a girl if you can't see what he look like. I think that would be his strength because he can tackle songs that is very difficult for most male singers to pull off like songs by female artists.
That's a strong song and a hard song to sing. He's going to be hard to beat, but even if he doesn't win, he's going to have a backer forever in one or two of those guys.
@joshuaamadeusishak1887 his voice hasn't changed yet. He's only 14, and it will probably change any time. My nephew just turned 15, and his voice hasn't changed yet
First, I was really impressed that he chose to sing "You Don't Own Me", which Lesley Gore had the guts to sing in 1963, when women were widely considered to be "less than" men. That choice of a song was bold and refreshing for a 15 year old male. Second, he had the courage and ability to make the song his own and not mimic others' versions. Bravo Reid!
This is Ryley Wilson's younger brother! Ryley was on the voice two years ago. He had a four-chair turn. I remember Reid from backstage rooting for his older brother. Amazing talent, both of them!!
He chose very deliberately to change just one word in the lyrics, and it wasn't the 'obvious' one... He's not only incredibly talented, but also a very brave performer. Something tells me he's gonna make his mark in this world.
@@_adg_1637 Good for you for noticing that. I guess he really didn't "make it his own" when it comes right down to it, although it is unique in that it is a male version of a song that has been overwhelmingly performed by females. I think that's what was making it unique for me.
You don't own me I'm not just one of your many toys You don't own me Don't say I can't go with other boys And don't tell me what to do Don't tell me what to say And please, when I go out with you Don't put me on display 'cause You don't own me Don't try to change me in any way You don't own me Don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay I don't tell you what to say I don't tell you what to do So just let me be myself That's all I ask of you I'm young and I love to be young I'm free and I love to be free To live my life the way I want To say and do whatever I please And don't tell me what to do Oh, don't tell me what to say And please, when I go out with you Don't put me on display I don't tell you what to say Oh, don't tell you what to do So just let me be myself That's all I ask of you I'm young and I love to be young I'm free and I love to be free
AGT has had many great auditions, but this one stands out to me. I've watched it many many times. His performance was exceptional! Like wow! For a 14-year old kid, ‘‘twas a very good performance. What an awesome rendition of the song. He just made the song even more beautiful. This song brings back old good memories. Thanks for singing this song, kid! Aabangan kita!
I knew he was gonna be great seeing his instagram reels. Him and his brother Ryley Tate from The Voice both are superb singers. What an incredible moment and he so deserved that golden buzzer.
Right on Howie!!!! This was totally the right call.... and the hug was wonderful. I am glad you let that come from the boy.. as I think that was the right call.. and it let you know he was comfortable to allow that exchange!!! This kid is so cute.. polite and talented!!!!! What a great audition!!!! 🤩 What a superb outcome!! 🥰🥳
I heard this song when it first came out, and I love it. I REALLY loved his take on it, especially the opening. Wow, it was the intelligence how he arranged the song, coupled with his unique voice, those runs, just wow. I love it and hope he is able to keep his focus as he grows up because I think we could be hearing his name in decades to come. I hope mom protects him from the worst of what the music industry can do, because he’s a treasure.
He was incredible! Seemed very comfortable on stage, and he was well rehearsed. He hit those notes, and the smile at the end showed he knew it! 🎉 Congrats!
The interviewer was out of line to tell him not to call her "Mam". She obviously has not knowledge of Southern manners. He was showing respect to his elders.
If you do not like being called something, then you should tell that person so they can stop calling you what you do not like to be called. No matter their age.
14 years old?! Oh My Goodness, that voice is crazy good, he’s got that retro old soul unusual voice, plus I love the song choice for him! I absolutely love it, definitely a Golden Buzzer moment! Congratulations!
Well, obviously no one will ever touch Leslie Gore's incredible original version, but Reid did himself proud and I hope for great things for him in the future.
@@seyumaiayami3536 No, I'm just someone with half a brain. The woman was probably in her 20's and had never been called ma'am before in her life. She also was clearly laughing and not offended. The boy did nothing wrong and she did nothing wrong. Unclutch your pearls, weirdo.
Saw it LIVE in our studio....gave me the chills. Listened back a few times since then...Simply amazing! Humble, nervous, sincere....passionate & executed. Young man, you're on your way. Simply amazing.
How do you get in the audience of AGT? I would love that! You are so fortunate! are the judges really watching these performances for the first time? I’ve always wondered that.

The delivery of his “no” when asked if his parents have good taste in music was adorable and timed so perfectly.

TALENT RUNS IN THIS FAMILY!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That's great to know. Hope he does well😀🙏
The way his mom was smiling before his performance. She already knew he was gonna leave no crumbs. 😭
For 14 years old! Impressive! That boy can sing his heart out. What an amazing rendition of You Don’t Own Me. This kid is gonna be a star in the making.

I just used the word ' impressive ' in my comment

I'm a 58 year old man! I've watched this audition at least 50 times! I've cried every time! Such a beautiful gifted child!
I cry with you
Yes,just so compelling
No way its pish
That's very strange. Seek help.
It was great that Howie not only gave him the Golden Buzzer but a hug as well
That is usually what judges do.
single mom creates another que*er monstrosity. No more (real) fathers in the household.
Howie has always given hugs. His OCD affects handshaking, not hugging.
@DavidWinsteadhe doesn't like shaking hands due to OCD.
I love how mom waits just a moment to come out on stage so he can have his moment, then comes out to join him. Fantastic voice!
Such a polite young man that sang his heart out! Well deserving!
Yes!! Loved how he asked permission to hug Howey instead of just doing it. So polite.
@@jules3048 Yes. Especially since Howie is a germaphobic.
Wait that was a man 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I can't stop watching and listening to Reid Wilson. Beautiful sounds that touch my heart and soul. Thank you Reid Wilson
This beautiful young man sings with the soul ofa black woman. Bless him--he is SO connected.
Yessssssss instant chills!!!
He's from Alabama
Blue-eyed soul
YES BLACK WOMEN SINGING IS THE GLOBAL GOLD STANDARD...HE TAPPED INTO THAT VIBE
That family is golden. Talented and so polite. Good people.

Different than..
I think he got inspiration from Kyla Jade :) check her cover from The Voice
@chrisl442 oh no, here we go!! How do you know he's not a he???
This is Ryley Wilson's younger brother! Ryley was on the voice two years ago. He had a four-chair turn. I remember Reid from backstage rooting for his older brother. Amazing talent, both of them!!
I'm trying to remember Ryley, What did he Sing? 🙂
It's dancin on my own@@RisingConsciousness-n4r
. Dancing On My Own /Audition
oh wow! thanks for that info, Ryley was incredible and now his brother?! so much talent in this family❤
Yess ❤️
His vocal style and the mood he created in his performance was magical. So incredible!!!!
I think maybe that was more than a song to him. It was a cry for acceptance. Bravo!!
💯
He chose very deliberately to change just one word in the lyrics, and it wasn't the 'obvious' one... He's not only incredibly talented, but also a very brave performer. Something tells me he's gonna make his mark in this world.
Absolutely
That's a pretty interesting observation and I feel the same...
I'm a 70 yr old lady...this audition made me cry with happy tears! He's extremely gifted.❤❤❤❤❤
Me too! 💓
X 3
Aren’t there a lot of us watching this😂
LOVE HIM! He took the golden buzzer for ALL of us boys with high voices!!! But he brought that Alabama charm along so instant winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love his voice and talent!! Go Reid from Alabama!! He deserves the Golden Buzzer!!❤
This kid is going to be a star. Thanks howie for giving him the golden buzzer he deserved that.
he's a shill for the LGBTQ community...poor kid.....
1:10 once he started singin', i'm blown away!
He started at 1:14
I’m from Alabama and I am so proud of that young man! He represented Alabama well. Funny, talented, and mature. Great job dude!
Too bad it's a girl and not a dude.
Amazing that a 14 year old kid could take a Leslie Gore song from the '60s and make it his own. I do think Leslie would be proud.
Except he borrowed heavilyyyy from Kyla jade’s rendition, some of those runs are note for note
@@_adg_1637 Good for you for noticing that. I guess he really didn't "make it his own" when it comes right down to it, although it is unique in that it is a male version of a song that has been overwhelmingly performed by females. I think that's what was making it unique for me.
@@_adg_1637 probably borrowed, but made it more interesting
@@_adg_1637came here to say this haha. Kid is good, but can’t full credit for the rendition.
Who, more than likely borrowed it from that artist “Grace“ who performed that song on the suicide squad soundtrack.
You know when he got the homies vibing in the audience, he's got SOUL
aint that the truth!
@@schmedlaphe didn't bring race into it. Stay mad
THIS! 👏
single mom creates another que*er monstrosity. No more (real) fathers in the household..
@@sliceserve234 he can't help but to bring race in. get over yourself
You don't own me
I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys
And don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display 'cause
You don't own me
Don't try to change me in any way
You don't own me
Don't tie me down 'cause I'd never stay
I don't tell you what to say
I don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
To live my life the way I want
To say and do whatever I please
And don't tell me what to do
Oh, don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display
I don't tell you what to say
Oh, don't tell you what to do
So just let me be myself
That's all I ask of you
I'm young and I love to be young
I'm free and I love to be free
I hope this kid never loses his sweet innocent nature. He's perfect just how he is.
I hope, with all my heart, that his family, his community, and the country will embrace ALL that he is. He is a beautiful talent, and a gentle soul.
Well said! And not difficult to read between the lines on the “ALL”.

I recognized him.
❤
oh that’s surprised me..his brother is so gooooood also..
Omg! I loved Ryley!
Yes, I'd seen him before but it's been a while. Really good singers in that family.
There's a whole lot of voice waiting inside this young man - can't wait for it!!!
Right on Howie!!!! This was totally the right call.... and the hug was wonderful. I am glad you let that come from the boy.. as I think that was the right call.. and it let you know he was comfortable to allow that exchange!!! This kid is so cute.. polite and talented!!!!! What a great audition!!!! 🤩 What a superb outcome!! 🥰🥳
Yes I noticed that too- Howie did the fist bump first with no other expectations then let Reid take the lead on the hug. Totally the right way to go.
I love it when Simon closes his eyes and is fully absorbing a fantastic voice.
So awesome, went back and watched Ryley's audition again and Reid is standing there looking so proud
@samantharich Yep, so cool. I just found that out myself
Brilliant brilliant brilliant made me cry with joy. I'm 62 old man from Ireland. Just amazing 💗
Great voice!! So glad there are performers out there with that gorgeous sound from the 50's and 60's.
Literally in tears, when Howie, ask... Do you believe in dreams? You deserved that golden buzzer, keep up❤
I heard this song when it first came out, and I love it. I REALLY loved his take on it, especially the opening. Wow, it was the intelligence how he arranged the song, coupled with his unique voice, those runs, just wow. I love it and hope he is able to keep his focus as he grows up because I think we could be hearing his name in decades to come. I hope mom protects him from the worst of what the music industry can do, because he’s a treasure.
WoW, This Boy has such a great voice. He deserved that Golden buzzer. Good man Howie for giving it to him. All the best Reid.
At 14 his runs is sick. 👏🏾
He was so crisp and solid. I agree 100
You can hear a SOUL! He is sensational!! Always love Howie’s golden buzzer! OMG!!! WOW!!!!❤❤❤❤
The face was priceless when Howie gave him the well deserved golden buzzer 🎉❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
He almost made me cry. He was so good 😊
He was incredible! Seemed very comfortable on stage, and he was well rehearsed. He hit those notes, and the smile at the end showed he knew it! 🎉 Congrats!

i’m Canadian and i agree !!
If you do not like being called something, then you should tell that person so they can stop calling you what you do not like to be called. No matter their age.
I am sure she did'nt mean anything by it,she was just trying to put him more at ease,stop reading things into everything said!Cheez!
It makes some people feel old
Not that serious
14 years old?! Oh My Goodness, that voice is crazy good, he’s got that retro old soul unusual voice, plus I love the song choice for him! I absolutely love it, definitely a Golden Buzzer moment! Congratulations!
Aretha would be so proud of him. He got a soulful voice and he is a superstar. Keep singing.
Well, obviously no one will ever touch Leslie Gore's incredible original version, but Reid did himself proud and I hope for great things for him in the future.
He was so young when his brother singing amazingly ‘dancing on my own’ on the voice USA ❤ and he has same amazing voice too. Fantastic Wilson ❤
Him asking Howie for a hug is so wholesome ❤
Kid was showing respect to the Interviewer and she totally treated him as if he said something wrong. Its called good MANNERS "MA'AM"!
You’re ridiculous.
@DIEGOSHAY you must be 13 years old.

That brought me to tears!!!! Such an amazing and incredible guy!! Thank you Howie!!
Wow, absolutely sensational! Chilling and ethereal! What a beautiful and gentle soul!
Seeing Howie accept a hug from someone he just gave the golden buzzer to was the most precious part of this video
Both brothers have beautiful voice. Kudos to Reid and Ryley
I can’t imagine standing on that stage in front of millions of people at 50 yrs old let alone 14. He’s definitely going places..
This kid is so honest: “no” 4:10 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I live in Alabama and am so proud of him! Congratulations on the golden buzzer!
He has an amazing voice. Well deserved golden buzzer
Fabulous to hear respect from a young man in this day & age! Well done to his parents!
That VOICE! 😮 incredible!!!!
He's singing his message out loud... beautiful!
Howie never misses the golden buzz for talented kids...Wholesome
Super sweet. Good job letting him give you a hug, Howie!!!
I kept thinking how his mom felt & happy cried along with everyone else - such an amazing voice!
He’s from a town 10 mins from me (Montgomery Alabama) this kid has talent. Saw him on our local news station.
Now that’s what I called an old soul. He has a good chance of winning this whole thing.
The way he sings, I can feel and understand the meaning of the song. He is a truly amazing 14-year-old boy! I pray for his success. 😊🎉
What a strong voice for a 14 year old! Well deserved!
He was on Jennifer Hudson show 7 months ago...Congratulations on your Golden Buzzer...great voice❤
Great job, Reid!! You represented Alabama well!! Great manners…that’s how we do it here in Alabama!
"Do you believe in dreams?"
"I do, yes"
So powerful
I am just speechless. This touches my heart so deeply, still after watching it around 50 times 🫣😇💫
05:36 that "no" right in time for the clap was amazing. What a performance and what an amazing personality.
Gosh!...l consider this song as legend and is quiet amazing that a 14 yr old kid sing it with soul...amazing!
His cover was one of the best
saw this on TV and INSTANTLY went searching for this! Love his voice !
Yes!!! Way to represent Montgomery! We're rooting for you here! 🎉
