He looks really handsome with short hair and I love that little piece hanging in the front like a greaser haha but I guess he found his true self with his beautiful long hair- it's gives him a glamorous 70's look
I have been in love with this individual for five years and cant believe I'm just stumbling across this landmine. Not sure how something so simplistic can embody so much character. Garrett is a mastermind.
I think I've never been so fascinated with an artist before. What he creates is just beyond words, there's something ethereal to whatever he does. And the more I delve into interviews and stuff like this the more I feel this weird connection without knowing this person. I'm seeing this video for the first time but have been listening to him for a long time without knowing much about him. Hearing about the fears he had before going to France and how it worked out for him eventually is just what I needed to hear now as I'm moving to Paris soon and have been feeling super anxious the last few days especially because of the language barrier. I'm so glad I stumbled across this video (whatever weird coincidence might've brought me here)
I totally understand what you mean about him being ethereal, and him being so different talking and everything. Not gonna lie I cried during this video because of how talented he is and his aura is just so beautiful.
All you should be jelly. He's from Grand Haven MI, where I live. He came to my school once in 2011 and played for us in out gym. He also played for every other school in the district
I teared up, and wept when Mr. Borns started talking about the little French girl. I keep trying not to like him. He keeps getting even more awesome! Much love. Hope I get to see him live soon...
Well this just made my day. What a stinkin adorable kid. How lucky I am that such talented people exist to make my creative thoughts a reality.... and I hope I get to see him on monday! gotta find a ticket
Wow...this gem is 5 years ago. Terrific. I "discovered" Mr. Borns last night (Christmas 2016) on PBS Front and Center. Check out that performance filmed at IRIDIUM in NYC.
Was this before he became BORNS?! What a savage at music.
Sam Valladares yea
Sam Valladares I guess so dude this is very Savage I don't like him on ukelele though lol
He stole our Ø for some reason, what a weirdo, but he can make music!
He was always Børns when you think about it
He looks really handsome with short hair and I love that little piece hanging in the front like a greaser haha but I guess he found his true self with his beautiful long hair- it's gives him a glamorous 70's look
Robert Plant-esque!
and look where he is 4 years later.... what an awesome performer
And now it's six years later :)
@@Danielle-rs6hg 8 yrs
8 years and no one knows where he is. 😂💔
9 years oMG
wow he was only 18 here
0:20 - Mademoiselle
6:45 - Princess Song
8:00 - TEDx Funk
11:40 - Time Flies
He looks so much healthier here Borns please take good care of your health😔
i sure hope that crowd was clapping like crazy cuz the mics barely picked the applause up and he deserved so much applause for that
+austin knight and I realize my grammar was terrible in that last sentence
"wanna bring a few friends onstage"
*whole world comes out*
You're sooooooo gorgeous!! Gosh this was a decade ago, your talent never goes out of style. Come back please
I have been in love with this individual for five years and cant believe I'm just stumbling across this landmine. Not sure how something so simplistic can embody so much character. Garrett is a mastermind.
If I were a little girl and heard him singing from across the street I would be mesmerized too.

Hope you're doing great in paris. I too want to visit paris once in my lifetime.❤
He's got that magic. Something else lol
I hope it worked out for you, too….
it did :-) thank you
How is someone THAT confident??
his face after his freestyle though, lol. he's so adorbs
I think short hair suits him more, but the long hair does make his image more unique.
U right
It's amazing to see how his sense of style changed so drastically.
"remember in 2011 when we were at Tedx Grand Rapids and we heard Garret Borns" said the man at the end, and he was so right about saying that!
What a truly lovely rosy human being. This man is the definition of good vibes, love, and happiness. I wish I had the pleasure of knowing him.
I swear i was straight a second ago
Kind of looks like an attractive version of Steve from stranger things
Anne Summers ouch
Anne Summers but actually Yes
OH MY GOD 💀💀💀
I️ KNOW RIGHT OMF
BUT STEVE IS ATTRACTIVE😫
All you should be jelly. He's from Grand Haven MI, where I live. He came to my school once in 2011 and played for us in out gym. He also played for every other school in the district
Also Grand Rapid (look at the title) is 45 minutes from where I live.
Also his song "mitten" is about Michigan.
no one actually cares
Sophia Reyes aw, don't be a party pooper. I think that's really exciting. He's a fun musician to listen to.
Ha same. My cousin was friends with him in highschool and lived in the same neighborhood. :)
@@chloestaff3259 really?
I like the rawness of how you can still hear his harmonic voice effect while he's speaking between songs.
Garrett has a mesmerizing voice that just hypnotizes that motivates you to finish what it is you need to get done
He literally looks like a baby here🥺. Who knew everyone would be electrified after a few years.
he is so inspirational to me. also I love that hes not wearing shoes
Tylar Osborne I thought I was the only one who noticed XD
Tylar Osborne It makes it easier to control the loops when you have full sensation with your feet
it's probably to feel the beat, i know a lot of people do that
you are saying he's been dope this whole time and i just discovered him last year in a youtube ad?
omg a smol bean here. hes so incredible! i love how far he's come.
how can someone hold so much talent :')
So much talent.
true
Love his beat boxing.
He's just a natural performer!
This guy is gonna need a movie and I’m sure he will be remember as a musical genius in the midst of temptation.
that little hair strand casually bouncing on his forehead is the end of me
HOW CAN SOMEONE NOT LOVE HIM OMGNN
He went to the same elementary school as I do now (rosymound elementary) he came there today with his band and I got his autograph!!!!!!!
i saw him live in paris!!!! breathtakingly beautiful
Headed to the top :)
This guy omg 😍
This is just so magnificent- everything about it is in harmony; his voice, the guitar, the background rhythm, the video....
L Norman there is no guitar, you mean ukulele?
haha yep sorry I'm bad with instruments
Last year Prince said he would be great.
what??when???
Yeah when?!
he kinda reminds me of him
WHAT? DO YOU HAVE FOOTAGE OF THIS?
I teared up, and wept when Mr. Borns started talking about the little French girl. I keep trying not to like him. He keeps getting even more awesome! Much love. Hope I get to see him live soon...
Biggest smile on my face from that improvised piece. So cool!
I hope these songs are on one of his albums. Dopamine was really good though.
I can't find his album Dopahan anywhere.
+Courtny E. Spotify
Ahmad White have you heard blue madonna? what do you think?

Such a talented human being.
He's so young here aw, yet his music is already so ingenious and beautiful
he really looked like christian slater in heathers mixed with patrick fugit in almost famous when he had shorter hair
+jeejunee Exactly! He's so adorable ^_^
True!!! They look exactly alike!!!
I just watched Almost Famous for the first time, and I was totally crushing on Patrick Fugit. I definitely see the similarities.
a333 bruuuhhh so true
a333 I'm getting more of a River Phoenix/Zac Hanson vibe.
Ich höre jetzt die ganze Zeit Scheeeeriiin

I like T.E.D talks and BØRNS what a day to be alive 😊
It's amazing to see where he started to 5 short years later
The way he rolls his 'r's makes me go crazy.
