Amen to that... but most importantly! He has perfect emotion. No one has such perfect pitch yet such grit in their voice, except perhaps Janis back in the days. Take Michael McDonald, and multiply his talent many times. He's also able to morph his voice to get some of the specific textures of the original artist every time he sings a song, while retaining his own unique and unmistakable timbre. Never in my life have I thought : "This performer is the best" before I heard Kodi Lee. And have been doing this since I'm 6 years old
This has to be THE best performance this show has ever had. Not only is it an inspiration to all but a reminder that even though you may have disabilities you can still touch millions of live and make that moment better for eveyone.
There is. It’s a cover song of Donny Hathaway a Song for You. You can find it and other of his amazing songs on TH-cam. The original lyrics were written by Leon Russell.
The world needs artists like Kodi,who bring those lost artists back.We miss th the Ray Charles, Michael Jackson,Danny H, Bob marley and many more. Revive those spirits ❤Kodi
Got to see codi lee in late Vegas last night, at agt live, man this guy is amazing and inspired me to stay strong even in these rough times, truly phenomenal performance definitely recommend hearing him in person
Listen I will never forget Kodi. I feel like he is a angel here on Earth. His beauty is transcended by his pure musical talented. Kodie inspires me to be a better human.
Doubtlessly incredible. The moment he started to sing was just goosebumps. I am sure no one there could not imagine his such a flawless singing til he showed what he could do
when I watch this video...i cried...I realized one thing..as good parent, you should keep supporting your children..give them all you got...accepting them
This Leon Russell song has always been a favorite of mine. I’ve heard every cover ever recorded but I’ve never heard a version that moved me as much as this. He’s amazingly talented and actually made this iconic song his own. Wonderful!
It has always been in my American Top Ten, Uncle Leon has been Phenomenal each and time I saw him, but this song was a Phenomenal experience, jűs sāyīn !😎✌️😎!
I am late to the Kodi Lee party, but I’m glad I found him on his recent AGT All-Star run. I was not prepared for this, his audition years ago. What a stunning and emotionally impactful performance, and what an incredible gift he has. I’m blown away. Count me as a fan. The world needs more of this kind of talent and shining positivity!
I really happy as Codi Lee became the winner of Americas got talent,2019.His audition & song has highly impressed me.God bless him. Mukundalal Saha, W .B . India )
Omg I'm crying like a baby. The facial expressions of the jury tear my soul into pieces. I tend to not believe in the good in people, but people keep proving me wrong over and over again.
Really really magical moment especially the journey Kodi took and the fact that he's blind and autistic And can sing and play the piano very well and touch the heart of all the people in that room means to me autism really is in a way a powerful mysterious thing we're out there and we got hidden skills dressed to impress people
I’ve been so many places In my life and time I’ve sung a lot of songs I’ve made some bad rhymes I’ve acted out my life on stages With ten thousand people watching But we’re alone now And I’m singing this song to you I love you in a place Where there’s no space or time I love you for my life ‘Cuz you’re a friend of mine And when my life is over Remember when we were together But we’re alone now And I’m singing this song to you We’re alone now And I’m singing this song to you
Kodi Lee! Ive just added some of your songs to my favorite play list on spotify! I especially love your song because Amy Winehouse sings it too and I love her. Well done Kodi, totally love you
This reminds me so much of my son who is autistic. He is also an amazing artist and dancer. He’s actually a pretty good basketball player. He is multi-talented, the most talented of all my children. Also has an amazing photographic memory and has actually won contests - Memory Master.
The fact they didn't clap so he could concentrate on the singing made it an even better performance and I like that his mum let him speak. Disability it not he's got a great voice and I'm glad he got the chance to show this. His family must be so proud. *or, not it
I love Kodi Lee. He is so Awesome. My Nephew Dylan is like him Born Blind and has Autism. And plays Piano and Keyboard and Sings and is Fantastic and is 22 years old and I love him so much he is my main man. I would go to a Kodi Lee concert in a Heartbeat but I live in Calgary Alberta Canada and I doubt he will ever come over here. But go Kodi Love you so much you and my Nephew are my inspirations.❤❤❤
It is a very good cover, but, in my opinion, the best version is done by Donny Hathaway. So much soul and feel. I honestly think it’s one of the all time best recorded songs.
This was beautiful I don’t know if anyone remembers this show called “THE FOUR” James Graham sung this song on that show and it sounds like they sing it the exact same way.
I forgot about this. I remember being obsessed with this cover and now I randomly found my way back to this.
fax
Same wtf
Exactly. Always seen this clip. Never realized it was this song……. Weird
LITERALLY
me too
Big shoutout to his parents, identifying what he was passionate in and backing him up 100%. Love it
He has perfect pitch perfect tone the timing is perfect God granted him the absolute best voice in the world
Amen to that... but most importantly! He has perfect emotion. No one has such perfect pitch yet such grit in their voice, except perhaps Janis back in the days.

I still get goosebumps watching this even after seeing dozens of times.
same
what a beautiful soul this young man is
Me too
That 'when my life is over, remember that we were together' give me goosbumps!
Here l am crying again.........Amazing Voice & Performance ❤️
I love watching Simon as soon as Kodi starts singing. His reaction is really the only way to define that moment
This has to be THE best performance this show has ever had. Not only is it an inspiration to all but a reminder that even though you may have disabilities you can still touch millions of live and make that moment better for eveyone.
Well he topped it last night on agy all stars. Check it out
pure genius
I wish there was a full version as good as this,
It’s beautiful it really is🙏

Don't forget about Stevie Wonder
I like the way mom treats her son like that.
Got to see codi lee in late Vegas last night, at agt live, man this guy is amazing and inspired me to stay strong even in these rough times, truly phenomenal performance definitely recommend hearing him in person
Listen I will never forget Kodi. I feel like he is a angel here on Earth. His beauty is transcended by his pure musical talented. Kodie inspires me to be a better human.
People in 2024 ???

I watched this happen live, it was insanely amazing and emotional!!!
Doubtlessly incredible. The moment he started to sing was just goosebumps. I am sure no one there could not imagine his such a flawless singing til he showed what he could do
I think my favorite part is just his family watching him have his moment and just be so genuinely happy for him. It’s awesome to watch.
The way he hits those crazy high notes is just oooooooooooh. Perfection. *chefs kiss*
when I watch this video...i cried...I realized one thing..as good parent, you should keep supporting your children..give them all you got...accepting them
I just found this and I was in tears because it’s just THAT DAMN BEAUTIFUL!!!
When I saw his performance I knew he won the whole thing already.
This Leon Russell song has always been a favorite of mine. I’ve heard every cover ever recorded but I’ve never heard a version that moved me as much as this. He’s amazingly talented and actually made this iconic song his own. Wonderful!
It has always been in my American Top Ten, Uncle Leon has been Phenomenal each and time I saw him, but this song was a Phenomenal experience, jűs sāyīn !😎✌️😎!
Oh, Kodi give s an Phenomenal Attempt at his own way, it was Beautiful, jűs sāyīn !😎✌️😎!

Donny Hathaway is gonna be proud of you. Such talent.
I am late to the Kodi Lee party, but I’m glad I found him on his recent AGT All-Star run. I was not prepared for this, his audition years ago. What a stunning and emotionally impactful performance, and what an incredible gift he has. I’m blown away. Count me as a fan. The world needs more of this kind of talent and shining positivity!
Don’t mind me, just my millionth time watching this. Brings me to tears every time! ❤
“And I’m singin’ a soong… to youuu” ugghhh goosebumps!
You can tell he’s singing that to his momma Beautiful ❤
Like said 4 years ago the first time i heard this, his voice is the definition of GOD GIVEN TALENT
Absolutely one of the best performances that I have ever seen on TH-cam.
I know right. Kody lee is incredibly talented
He's God's gift...great singer and my huge respect to his mother!
your a friend of mine part hits so hard
its just one of those performances that will make me cry but i still go back too so many times
I really happy as Codi Lee became the winner of Americas got talent,2019.His audition & song has highly impressed me.God bless him.

Simon and all the judge’s reaction will always get me ❤
Omg I'm crying like a baby. The facial expressions of the jury tear my soul into pieces. I tend to not believe in the good in people, but people keep proving me wrong over and over again.
3:07 Terry’s face is amazing he’s so proud and genuinely enjoying it and is moved
Terry looks like he's praising God in his mind.
2:32 is where he starts sing ❤😢amazing
There's something about song and music that no other talent can fill. This is so emotional.
Best version of this song ever. Can't believe i almost forgot about it, but I'm back! :)
I honestly feel he singing it better then the original ❤
Really really magical moment especially the journey Kodi took and the fact that he's blind and autistic And can sing and play the piano very well and touch the heart of all the people in that room means to me autism really is in a way a powerful mysterious thing we're out there and we got hidden skills dressed to impress people
I got to see him in Vegas and that was the best live performance I’ve ever watched honestly
I’ve been so many places
In my life and time
I’ve sung a lot of songs
I’ve made some bad rhymes
I’ve acted out my life on stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we’re alone now
And I’m singing this song to you
I love you in a place
Where there’s no space or time
I love you for my life
‘Cuz you’re a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
But we’re alone now
And I’m singing this song to you
We’re alone now
And I’m singing this song to you
Beautiful
This is a gift from Leon Russel.
Dang this Man is very Gifted, life is not fair to others.❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👏👏👏
Better than the original 👏
As much as I love this cover, I will never say this. Both versions are beautiful in their own way. No need to compare.
You just bring back the life of an old song, great job Kodi ❤️❤️❤️ you have touch every heart listening to you, Including me 👏 God bless you 🙏❤️
Kodi Lee! Ive just added some of your songs to my favorite play list on spotify! I especially love your song because Amy Winehouse sings it too and I love her. Well done Kodi, totally love you

Maaan, I’m crying every time I’m watching this..
The fact they didn't clap so he could concentrate on the singing made it an even better performance and I like that his mum let him speak.
