as soon as he spoke, i knew he blow the crowd away. Great to see this guy getting recognised. He's a World Class Singer, and he did buy his Grandparents a house. His heart is as big as his voice.
Michael is TRULY a gentleman, a man of honor and a man of his word! His grandparents moved into the house he had built for them earlier this year. I do LOVE his voice, but I also admire his heart and soul!
Gahwwwdam! His is a soulful, unique, absolutely perfect voice. He deserves success and recognition. I remember when this came out and i immediately thought, we have the winner! I had forgotten how good he actually is.
Michael Grimm is so awesome..Soul, Blues,Country, he just kills it on every song he sings. I bought his new single on iTunes yesterday. "Starting Over" It's so heartfelt. LOVE HIM!
I bought Starting Over on iTunes yesterday, too, Dree--it is a REALLY, REALLY great song: moving, honest, from the depths of his heart and soul. LOVE IT!
absolutely! i remember sitting in my family room hearing this version of Ray Charles' song. He put his Mississippi soul into this song, and it took him to the Winner's circle.
He is doing VERY well, and IS playing music his way! His Kickstarter project was just successfully funded on Thursday night, so he and his teammates Jamie & Drew (the "3 amigos") are able to go full steam ahead on the next album, Generation Next!!! CONGRATS to them! :)
Michael Grimm has a new cd coming out, GRIMM - GENERATION NEXT--on presale June 1, on shelves June 15. CD Release Party on May 23rd at Vinyl at Hard Rock Hotel Las Vegas, where Michael will also be their first official Resident Headliner starting in June! Can't wait to get my copy of the new cd!
I have cried too. And I met someone who fell in love with Michael's performance because her late husband used to sing this song to her. He does an AMAZING job with it! Glad you like this song.
You are right--his audition performance is definitely the one that hooked most people, and remains their favorite! But I LOVE listening to everything he does, there's just something about the GORGEOUS tone in his voice that just mesmerizes me!
It is in his heart and soul--you can see that he sings for the joy of it, and it is how he expresses himself. And I think that is why those of us who can hear that and feel that are so drawn to him--and are so fortunate!
My husband and I are right there with you, Chelsea! As a matter of fact, my husband & I traveled 1200 miles round trip to see Michael perform live--TWICE! And I've traveled even further with others to see him--he is AWESOME live! So glad that the house is finally finished and Grandma and Grandpa have moved in--a number of us are getting them housewarming gifts!
Michael Grimm Wow's the crowd at every show I go to! He is one of the best artist I have seen in a long time! amazing voice and true southern gentlemen! I have bought every album he has out and will continue to!
Cheese Whiz I don't agree that it's lame--and since the public votes, they decide who they like the best. Yes, it's most often singers who win, because that is who the voters have selected. Maybe they should have one where singers are not eligible to enter--and then see if they get the audience (ratings) they need to stay on the air???
my husband and i saw mikes talent from the first show and kept voting him threw every episode....what a super sweet n talented guy! Your wife is one lucky woman! And I hope ur grandparents are doin great!......thanx to you I'm sure they are!...good luck in everything you do Mike!
+Laurie Havens He's my all -time favorite winner too! He did have some decent competition, especially in the top 4, and even in the top 10, but he had me from the moment he opened his mouth too--I couldn't get enough of his gorgeous voice!
Written by one of the best female song writers ever. Cindy Walker and suggested by Eddy Arnold. Most of her life she lived with her mother in Texas and claimed she had never married but it was found that she was briefly married early in her life. She was a beautiful woman. Someone inherited millions of dollars from her writing.
I HAVE listened to him all day, many days! And I just LOVE his speaking voice as well as his singing voice--his tone, singing or speaking, is just GORGEOUS!!
Emotional, yes, BS--absolutely not! Michael DID use a good part of his prize money to build his grandparents a brand new home. As far as boring, that depends on each individual, for me and for many others it was not boring at all, but instead very compelling. But I agree with you 100% that Michael is indeed very talented!
So very happy for him!...I could not only feel his passion for music but see it as well:)....He and his family really needed this win, and He really did earn it:)
I've heard this song done by almost every performer and the only one that comes even close to Ray charles is Michael Grimm his rendition of this is magical
You are so right about Michael's humility, politeness, and coolness--and he's got a kind heart, and FABULOUS voice too! I agree that it's good to see nice guys finish first sometimes--he is a rare guy indeed!
What a lovely humble guy who doesn't realise just how incredible he is. He's handsome, talented and good to his family, I love his voice and guitar playing
Michael Grimm, 30 year old musician from Mississippi, sings "You Don't Know Me" for celebrity judges Piers Morgan, Sharon Osborne and Howie Mandel at the Los Angeles auditions for season 5 of America's Got Talent. Michael went on to become the Season 5 winner, receiving more votes than any contestant in the history of the show. The background song is "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (& their band, The Frames) & is from the movie "Once".
I am so glad too! And I agree with you on BOTH counts. I loved this song even before I heard Michael's version, but combined with his GORGEOUS vocals and tone--I was mesmerized!
Yes, he did! What a wonderful man his grandparents raised--and joyous day when they moved into their new home! One of the many things I love about Michael Grimm!
dazma54 I see you know a good thing.. when you see .... or hear it ! I have to say his voice is beautiful and I love everything about him ! But the one thing to me that makes him so perfect is his heart and the love he feels for his grandparents and it shows ...through his singing ! Proves to me ... Love is always the answer .
You & I are on the exact same page as far as Michael Grimm, as I absolutely LOVE his voice, his tone is GORGEOUS! But what makes him so very special to me, is the man that he is: kind, caring and giving, in heart and soul. I have met Michael on several occasions, and his grandma a few times, and have seen the home that he built for his grandparents--his back story was not made up for the show, it was 100% true! Sadly, his grandpa has since left this world, but at least he got to see Michael succeed, and to feel his love in a concrete way, before he passed away. Love IS the answer--always! :)
dazma54 I hate to hear his grandfather past away but I'm so happy he got to see his grandson do this for them . I know his family is very proud of him . He is a good man inside and out . I have always loved all kinds of music and that is one of my favorites! Yes anything done out of love is always the right answer . :)
I think that look says "Yeah, man, he's got it!", then at 4:13 Nick actually says "That's a superstar's voice right there!" so he can see Michael's talent right away!
He's so humble, he's so polite... what a cool guy. I don't like these shows much, but I like that they do offer opportunitities for these kinds of rare guys.
Smoky is a certain sway your voice can sound. Same with rasp. Define rasp: to speak in a way that sounds rough "Smoky" in this sense started from describing torch singers, who sang jazz-blues ballads. Smoky means dark, liquid, with delicate releases, very fluid with a lot of dynamic control, generally in lower female ranged, alto/contralto.
You are correct on all counts! Michael is an amazing singer, and he did build his grandparents a brand new home! Grandma and Grandpa did move in, but sadly Grandpa passed away since then.
Micheal Grimm I Swear if you had Been on the Voice with an all star singeing Judges" you Would've turn all four of them chairs, you got a lot of heart & soul Brother.😍😍👍🏻👍🏻
Did anyone ever answer you? Just in case: The background song is "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (& their band, The Frames) & is from the movie "Once".
The background song is "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (& their band, The Frames) & is from the movie "Once". It is a really great song, too, so glad they used it for Michael's backstory!
Thanks for answering! Not sure if she meant the background song, or the song Michael sings.

Shelia Johnson I so agree with you! I hear a similarity, but Michael GRIMM has Bolton beat by a mile, at least in my opinion--the tone in Grimm's voice is superb!
as soon as he spoke, i knew he blow the crowd away. Great to see this guy getting recognised. He's a World Class Singer, and he did buy his Grandparents a house.
His heart is as big as his voice.
I agree on all counts!
Michael is TRULY a gentleman, a man of honor and a man of his word! His grandparents moved into the house he had built for them earlier this year. I do LOVE his voice, but I also admire his heart and soul!
I could listen to him talk all day. He has such a lovely tone to his voice and an even better singing one.
Right on ALL counts! He's a man of his word, honorable, kind, humble--and so dang talented!
Gahwwwdam! His is a soulful, unique, absolutely perfect voice. He deserves success and recognition. I remember when this came out and i immediately thought, we have the winner! I had forgotten how good he actually is.
Michael Grimm is so awesome..Soul, Blues,Country, he just kills it on every song he sings. I bought his new single on iTunes yesterday. "Starting Over" It's so heartfelt. LOVE HIM!
I bought Starting Over on iTunes yesterday, too, Dree--it is a REALLY, REALLY great song: moving, honest, from the depths of his heart and soul. LOVE IT!
2015 and this is still a go to song when im feeling the blues.
I love this song too--and Michael Grimm's version of it has been my favorite since I first heard it, almost 5 years ago!
absolutely! i remember sitting in my family room hearing this version of Ray Charles' song. He put his Mississippi soul into this song, and it took him to the Winner's circle.
Placebo_Jones You sure got that right!
2017 and counting...
el vinagrillo beat me to it...arrrgh
Michael Grimm,now EVERYONE,wishes they know You.Absolute Perfection.GOD BLESS YOU.
Still lovin you Michael Grimm, hope you're doing well and playin music your way.
He is doing VERY well, and IS playing music his way! His Kickstarter project was just successfully funded on Thursday night, so he and his teammates Jamie & Drew (the "3 amigos") are able to go full steam ahead on the next album, Generation Next!!! CONGRATS to them! :)
M Hanna l
2022 still brilliant!
I would love to hear him in concert. He has such a great voice, humble and grateful.
He ia AMAZING live--I have been to several of his concerts, and hope to go again soon!
I not only saw him, but got to meet him. He is ALL YOU SEE AND THEN SOME MORE!!!! The man and his AMAZING MUSIC!!! 💚💙💛
I still come back after years to listen to Michael Grimm. He is an amazing talent.

I have cried too. And I met someone who fell in love with Michael's performance because her late husband used to sing this song to her. He does an AMAZING job with it! Glad you like this song.
He's so good I teared up omg I love him and remember watching him with my family and we all fell in love
Same here!
You are right--his audition performance is definitely the one that hooked most people, and remains their favorite! But I LOVE listening to everything he does, there's just something about the GORGEOUS tone in his voice that just mesmerizes me!
I would argue that sitting by yourself strumming a guitar and sounding like this..IS stepping it up!
AMEN to that! Many of my favorite Michael Grimm songs are just that: Michael's GORGEOUS voice, and an acoustic guitar. No need for anything else!
It is in his heart and soul--you can see that he sings for the joy of it, and it is how he expresses himself. And I think that is why those of us who can hear that and feel that are so drawn to him--and are so fortunate!
Omg! He's so good!!! I could listen to this song all day.
Rylee Langlois Even after 5 years, I am still drawn to this performance--it is one of my all-time favorites!!! And yes, Michael Grimm is indeed GREAT!
Excellent!
Rylee your fit looking
My husband and I are right there with you, Chelsea! As a matter of fact, my husband & I traveled 1200 miles round trip to see Michael perform live--TWICE! And I've traveled even further with others to see him--he is AWESOME live!
So glad that the house is finally finished and Grandma and Grandpa have moved in--a number of us are getting them housewarming gifts!
Six years later and a performance that continues to impress.
right?
AMEN!
I cried listening to this song. The memory of my mother came to my head. Congratulations for song. From Brazil.
world class in every sense of the word
Absolutely!!!
He's a truly honorable man, that got it off of his chest and let his voice be heard, great job, and thanks for the upload.
Michael, the wife and I really hoped you would win that year. Keep it up brother!
My husband voted for him too! And even my 3 sons, and several of my co-workers, voted for him!
I am with you on ALL counts--LOVE his voice, NEVER get tired of listening to his music, and CANNOT understand why he's not all over the radio!!!
what a champion. he deserves all the success in the world! absolutely world class
I agree 100%!!!!
I wanted this for him almost as much as he wanted it for himself! He was so talented, so deserving, and I was thrilled that he won!
Michael won because he deserved it, he is amazing!
So right!
He's very talented no doubt. But the sob story had a lot to do with him winning.
@@joeturner3863 in this case I don't think the sob story made him win.
People who don't recognize and appreciate a great musical talent!
U no longer hear this kind of voice these days..simply awesome.
I just watch this a weeks ago it's got me ,touch my heart so perfect voice well done Grimm hope you future Bright like Star 💫💫💫
I'm a life long pro musician and this blew me AWAY....what an honest delivery and a great guy
Thanks for your reply--that is truly a testament to how GREAT this performance is!!
The crowd love the judge's likes it he deserve it very humble and respectful attitude.
Michael Grimm Wow's the crowd at every show I go to! He is one of the best artist I have seen in a long time! amazing voice and true southern gentlemen! I have bought every album he has out and will continue to!
I STILL Love this guy !!!! :)
Me too!!! :)
I am not from Mississippi, but went there several times to see Michael perform--and met him too! GREAT guy, great place.
I honestly feel he deserved to win just because he is much older. Jackie has decades to consume the world with her talent.
I think you should've won, joshy
I think he deserved to win because of his talent--what a GORGEOUS voice!
Joshua Bob I think its lame when a singer wins a Talent Contest.... Just cause there are a bunch of contest for singing specifically
Cheese Whiz I don't agree that it's lame--and since the public votes, they decide who they like the best. Yes, it's most often singers who win, because that is who the voters have selected. Maybe they should have one where singers are not eligible to enter--and then see if they get the audience (ratings) they need to stay on the air???
dazma54 I dont mean lame as to say he isnt good, if it came out that way, just feels dry i guess, but yeah i agree rating are the most important lol
my husband and i saw mikes talent from the first show and kept voting him threw every episode....what a super sweet n talented guy! Your wife is one lucky woman! And I hope ur grandparents are doin great!......thanx to you I'm sure they are!...good luck in everything you do Mike!
My fav winner of all time! Knew when he opened his mouth he was going to win. I'm no genuis, but it's pretty obvious!
+Laurie Havens He's my all -time favorite winner too! He did have some decent competition, especially in the top 4, and even in the top 10, but he had me from the moment he opened his mouth too--I couldn't get enough of his gorgeous voice!
DITTO !!!!
Nice to hear that you appreciate BOTH Michael's music, and his efforts to help the Mississippi coast community--I do too!!

I can't argue with that, this song is FABULOUS! One of my all-time favorites, and Michael's version of this song is also my all-time favorite!
I HAVE listened to him all day, many days! And I just LOVE his speaking voice as well as his singing voice--his tone, singing or speaking, is just GORGEOUS!!
I LIKE HIM CAUSE HE LUVS HIS FAMILY. HE JAMS ALSO SINGS GOOD
The "judges" comments were just a tad understated! Dude was amazing! Never know who the judges are going to gush over but this guy is the real deal!!!
+EdwardVan Leppard He IS the real deal! And he won this season!!
Emotional, yes, BS--absolutely not! Michael DID use a good part of his prize money to build his grandparents a brand new home. As far as boring, that depends on each individual, for me and for many others it was not boring at all, but instead very compelling.
But I agree with you 100% that Michael is indeed very talented!
I love this man his voice gives me chills every time i hear this song! I love how soulful his voice is. I went an got his album its AWESOME
I just loved this man Michael Grimm-...I truly hope he is doing well in life:)
He is! He is working on a new album, just did a 3-fer in Texas, and there's talk of a possible residency at a well-known Vegas casino...
So very happy for him!...I could not only feel his passion for music but see it as well:)....He and his family really needed this win, and He really did earn it:)
Brooke Wright I totally agree on both counts! :)

Isn't he beautiful? Voice,soul,looks,humble,sexy,deep. Mmmmmmmmmm................
I agree--I love his voice! He is one of my 2 favorite singers of all time!

He sounds so good, and he's a real likeable guy.
Agree on both counts!
I got chills with his first note! He's fabulous!!❤❤👌5
If you get a chance, see him in person. Saw him this past Friday night in Austin, TX - just him and his guitar - no band. Unbelievable talent.
Agree 100%, I've seen him live several times, just FABULOUS! And I could listen to just Michael and his guitar for hours and hours!
omg... hes amazing singing and as a person. sent wicked shivers down my spine. i would gladly have this mans kid.
Katrina Durkee LOL--as would many others, but he is taken. His singing really get to me too, he's one of my 2 all-time favorite male singers!
damn! dude got michael bolton's voice
kurosaki ichigo Lots of others have said the same, and I see why, but to me, Michael GRIMM has a much nicer tone--it's GORGEOUS!!!
kurosaki ichigo And then some:)
Bottle Brush Amen!
i wish i had that kind of voice. but sadly all i can muster is just a voice of a frog singing before rain.
kurosaki ichigo It certainly is a voice you don't find often--what a talent!
You are so right about Michael's humility, politeness, and coolness--and he's got a kind heart, and FABULOUS voice too! I agree that it's good to see nice guys finish first sometimes--he is a rare guy indeed!
this bloke is so good !!!
He sure is!
What a lovely humble guy who doesn't realise just how incredible he is. He's handsome, talented and good to his family, I love his voice and guitar playing
I agree with you on every single point!
Join the crowd--I've been in love with him for over 2 years, and believe me, we are not alone!
Gotta agree with you--the tone in Grimm's voice is GORGEOUS!

Incredible musical talent...fantastic blues tone
Oh, yeah! I LOVE his tone!
I was just mesmerized by this performance--watched it over and over, completely drawn in by Michael!
Perfect
I agree with you 100% !!!

sheila andrews
TH-cam recommended this for me. And I'm so glad I watched it. What a lovely voice and great song choice
I think that look says "Yeah, man, he's got it!", then at 4:13 Nick actually says "That's a superstar's voice right there!" so he can see Michael's talent right away!
Been a fan of his since I first saw this years ago.....his voice is amazing.
Yes, I agree, but Michael GRIMM has the most gorgeous TONE in his voice, and I don't think Bolton comes close to that.
He's so humble, he's so polite... what a cool guy. I don't like these shows much, but I like that they do offer opportunitities for these kinds of rare guys.
Wow... great job!
He did a great job indeed!
How can there be 228 Thumbs down on this great performance by Michael Grim...UNBELIEVABLE..
probably fans of the other contestants
To the 228 people who went thumbs down...obviuosly your taste in music matches your IQ
There's just no accounting for bad taste! :)
He is a wonderful, gentle, kind man, and when I am listening to him, I feel like I am in heaven!
Pure silk. What a sexy and stunning voice. I like the smoky rasp he has at times. Pure silk. I love his voice! It captures you and demands your focus.
Not sure what silk has to do with anything. smokey rasp? You sound hungry.
Smoky is a certain sway your voice can sound. Same with rasp.
Define rasp: to speak in a way that sounds rough
"Smoky" in this sense started from describing torch singers, who sang jazz-blues ballads. Smoky means dark, liquid, with delicate releases, very fluid with a lot of dynamic control, generally in lower female ranged, alto/contralto.
+Eviejean87 I understand completely what you mean, and agree with you 100%!!!
His performance was indeed moving--very heartfelt, as Sharon O said, you could feel the pain, it was real, not put on.
Guy is really cool! a great singer with a great Idea to help his grandparents get a house!
You are correct on all counts! Michael is an amazing singer, and he did build his grandparents a brand new home! Grandma and Grandpa did move in, but sadly Grandpa passed away since then.
Very talented young man ...God Bless him and his family...👍🏻🙏🏻
you are so right about that I agree 100
This is one of the loveliest songs I know!
Great voice
+robert john AMEN to that--gorgeous tone!
Micheal Grimm I Swear if you had Been on the Voice with an all star singeing Judges" you Would've turn all four of them chairs, you got a lot of heart & soul Brother.😍😍👍🏻👍🏻
Did anyone ever answer you? Just in case:
The background song is "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (& their band, The Frames) & is from the movie "Once".
Now I've only heard that comparison once before--but I see where you're coming from--and I LOVE it!
Oh, my! Wouldn't Ray Charles be so proud of this young man!!!
stparisian I think he would indeed! :)
Cindy Walker [composer] and Eddy Arnold [gave the title to Cindy Walker] both sang it before ray charles. And as well as he did.
The background song is "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard & Marketa Irglova (& their band, The Frames) & is from the movie "Once". It is a really great song, too, so glad they used it for Michael's backstory!
great singer
He sure is! Also song writer and guitar player--a true talent!
still watching in 2015, what a voice.
+anonrevo _ Ditto! You got that so right!
what is crazy is that either this or the next performance he almost got disqualified for going over the time limit. thank goodness he didn't.
AMEN to that! Though I think that was staged by the producers to increase the drama and suspense. :)
Thanks for answering! Not sure if she meant the background song, or the song Michael sings.

Me too!
I don't even know how many times I've watched this performance!
outside of ray charles this is the finest version of this song ever
QUE TALENTO ...!! VOCÊ MERECEU, CONQUISTOU COM SEU ESFORÇO E PERSISTÊNCIA , PARABÉNS...
Michel Bolton!
Have heard that many times, and I see where it comes from, but to me, Michael GRIMM has a much nicer tone than Bolton--it's GORGEOUS!
Ewwww really Bolton. Grimm has WAY more heart and soul than Bolton ANY DAY!
Shelia Johnson I so agree with you! I hear a similarity, but Michael GRIMM has Bolton beat by a mile, at least in my opinion--the tone in Grimm's voice is superb!
And a little Joe Cocker:) RIP
Itsme 23 I hear the similarity, but again, Michael Grimm has a much nicer tone than Cocker--though I did like him too...
