The first time I heard you sing was just a little bit when you joined in with Allie Sherlock singing Unchained Melody. I was blown away by your voice. Keep singing!!!
I always loved it when you sang together with Allie Sherlock! Your smile when you looked at her was adorable!!! You are amazing, and its not just luck its talent hun of which you have loads, but you are missed on Grafton street! Lol Trish from OZ 😁🤗
Hi Cuan, i have seen you sing in duets with Allie Sherlock, and solo by yourself, i honestly think you try harder when singing with Allie, you actually sound better that Allie when you sing with her, i think she brings the best out in you, i am sure you know what i am talking about. Maybe you had something to prove because you loved her, and wanted to sing your best! Its just what i've observed from my place in Vancouver, BC. Canada. My daughter was in Canadian Idol at 16 years old and made it 5 rounds in the contest. I watch Allie Sherlock all the time, and love it when Cuan joins her there the best!
Oh, Cuan, the video is amazing. Everything you say is so heartfelt and mature for a 19 year boy ( man). Congratulations to Ferdia and the rest of your beautiful family.
I really loved that you are willing to be so open with us - your growing and doting fans and let us have a peek into your Caribbean adventure. I've been listening to all your videos from the day I happened across you and Allie singing my favorite, Unchained Melody. That gorgeous voice in one so young was stunning! And added to that is a young man with tremendous charm and graciousness too. You have so, so much talent and, obviously a tremendous family doing all possible to give you every chance to develop that talent. That you are so thankful for the blessings in your life and stay humble is beautiful. May you never change as the fame that awaits you sweeps you up into places where it could happen. Stay true to the wonderful person God, your family, and your hard work has formed you to be.
Talk about leaving people wanting more! Can we have a part 2? Honestly, this is SO incredible. Congratulations to both of you for coming up with the idea of doing this and putting it together so amazingly well. Really, I'm just sort of stunned at how good it is (although not exactly surprised).
Ferdia made a great film. Good to see how your family is so close and helps make your dreams come true. I love your singing, joy and enthousiasm on stage. So thankful I can follow you this way and see you grow.
Cuan, with your beautiful voice, fabulous stage presence, personality, vision of what you want, and being a “little” humble (which is commendable) I believe you will go far, God speed.
@@davidg4595 I truly hope before "speaking" you have watched his earlier videos. He has been singing for years & definitely has his own style. However, he is young, very intelligent, very gifted & I'm sure, as with every person new(ish) to publicly performing, his style may change in/with time. But either way, he is who he is, has come thus far & has built a fairly big fan base so, he is obviously doing something(s) right! Best of luck & sending positive t6houghts & energy your way, Cuan!
@@denisepharries772 Hi Denise, Thank you for saying what you said in response to a comment that Cuan needs to sing with feeling. A very well worded response and a complex answer. All good points. Cuan from the very first song on Grafton Street displayed personality, lyrics directed at the audience, and an amazing voice at the age of 17 !!! One additional remark, OPERA is not ROBOTIC, just the opposite. Opera is full of story telling and emotional, often tragic scenes. Thanks again Denise.
Cuan, even at your young age you have reached so much: You have decided to do what you can do best. You are a gifted singer and musician, and there will be a long and successful career in your later life... Thank you for this insight, and stay well and keep well!
Cuan, you are a wonderful representation of how we would like to see ourselves. Talented, humble, appreciative, all requisite for a life's experience that makes our lives an experience. Good for you. Di più Italiano.
Such a super network you are building. Pleased to see you grow. Much success and fulfillment! I feel privileged for coming across you on DCT and TH-cam channels of buskers. Many thanks for updating us and honouring your "clans" and fans. 🙏
Cuan I wish you were touring the US I would love to see you perform! Also would love to see you collaborate with Lady Gaga. She would love you. And you can sing your own style. How did you get to be so wise in a 19-year-old body. You really are amazing. This just left me wanting more! I see a kind, passionate, incredibly driven, loving man that knows exactly what he wants. He is willing to go out and get it. I am so happy you were actually doing what you love, and love what you’re doing! So very few of us get to do that. you have an incredible support group around you, which obviously helps you a lot. Thank you for this blog. Sending love from Northern California 💜🤟🏻😎🇺🇸
Cuan, You have come so far.. I’ve always had faith in you. I knew you were going to go far. Your journey has only begun. You are a shining light. Great things are coming to you. Love you much and I’m so very proud!!xoxo Barb
Thank you for this special glimpse into your world! You and Ferdia did a fantastic job putting this together. You have such a kind and extremely humble heart. It's such a joy to see just how incredible of a young man you are. I hope this is the 1st of many interview videos the Durkins do!?! 🥰🤩❤️
I really enjoyed this video, thank you to all of you who participated. Thank you Ferdia for this project. It was so nice to see your parents. Cuan you are marvelous.
No only does he have a Amazing talent..he has a Amazing heart.. Good head on his shoulders... a son that loves his mom and dad are wonderful souls...genuine. nothing fake about Cuan
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this exciting journey that you are on. From this video I see you as a gentle soul blessed with amazing gifts! And, it’s so heartwarming to see your supportive family with you!! Much continued success with school and every dream in your heart! From Kathleen in the US.
Wow. I think you’re fabulous Cuan, having followed you from your busking days. I wish you all the luck, success and happiness in your future. You can see how much you love performing and I hope one day I’m able to buy a ticket to come and see you in concert.
Hi Cuan, congratulations for this successful video. What fantastic pictures. You show us how serious you are about your career. This is impressive. Of course we know that you have what it takes. You have it all! So fingers crossed that it works! All my support and love! ❤
Nice to see a more personal side of you. Your brother Ferdia did a great job filming 🎥. Your future looks bright. If you're doing something you enjoy doing, you can't go wrong.
Hearing William Henley's quote brought back memories. I first heard those lines from my 7th grade teacher who instilled in her students the belief that we could achieve anything we want in life. And many of us who grew up in a poor steel mill town went on to do big things. "I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul." Yes, an excellent quote to live by. Our beloved teacher, Miss Patrick, was Irish. And she must be smiling down on you, Cuan, for sharing this quote with your fans. USA 😎
Ferdia and Cuan, this is everything I had hoped for. This portrait of the artist as a young man is inspiring and enchanting. Thanks to both of you for giving us a special window on Cuan's developing persona. The mix of tropical beauty, personal insights, and amazing music is perfection. Finn is fascinating too. He did some great work on the arrangements. Hoping will get to see more of the individual performances from this venue.
Cuan, you are an amazing guy, and amazing performer- so cool, relaxed, and confident. Comfortable in your own skin, and getting better and better every time I see you. In Canada, we have our own Michael Buble, and you are the Irish equivalent, with your own personal style and talents. God bless you, and may your star continue to rise with each performance ! I am a huge fan. Besides your singing talent, you are incredibly good looking, and are the whole package. Best of luck in all your endeavours. Joe
I just love you and support you always Cuan. ❤️😇 Congratulations and you are extremely talented. ❤️❤️❤️ I love the video. An excellent video production. 👏👏👏OH! That Smile, it melts me! 😊😊😊🥰🥰🥰
I may be late to your party, but I'm happy to have found you on Allie Sherlock's YT channel! You and I have the same taste in genre... And I love Michael Buble ... so I am thoroughly enjoying your music and will continue to "tune in" so thank you for the music, Cuan!
I've been wondering where you had went. I think Allie's father, Mark said you went to college to do your own thing in a live stream. What a beautiful documentary film you guys put together!!! Glad school is going well. Your voice has gotten even better, hard to imagine. Those Elvis Presley moves at the end were very amazing!! Cute crack in vocals at the end, is all good. 😀 Thanks so much for sharing and I hope you never completely abandon your channel 😀 😊 ❤️ 💙 💗
You are doing fantastic & you have such a perfect attitude. Your right you don't have to be perfect. We want you to always be you, be human. Always keep yourself grounded. 🥰
Wow!! Such an amazing young man!🥰 cudos to your parents for raising such a wonderfully talented, kind, honest and of course handsome individual... you will make someone very happy someday! Keep your uniqueness. Your gift... don't let the world get to you, and stay true to YoU! Really enjoyed your video.. and how fun was the Caribbean..😍 mayb someday I could visit there.. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors and ur music career.. p.s. love all the different music you do.. not just one genre.. 🤩 have a blessed night.
You always have my full support 100%!!! You are a wonderful, multi-talented person who always has your own audience. Your career is ready and waiting, behind the door. However, you have also remember to take care of yourself, eat well, sleep and sometimes take a vacation. 💖💕💖💕💖💕💖
Can't wait to see what else you do with your life. Loved seeing this. Would love to see you sing in person! Charisma plus talent...an unbeatable combination!
This is a bit late but i just wanted to say how i’ve been a fan since 2019 and i’m so proud to see how far you’ve come and how much you’ve improved. I’ve never even had a full conversation with you but with how you’re so sheerly happy you always are, it makes me feel like your an old friend💗
Well done for following your dream Cuan, I've been following you for a while but its great to get this behind the scenes catch up. My son (a few years younger than you) is looking at a similar journey classical into swing and contemporary, and as with you mum and dad are his support act. We'll follow you with great interest. Cheers from Australia.
Eons ago, my guitar teacher once, or maybe twice, told me, "James, if you have a dream in life, you should pursue it. If you don't, you will live a life of regret." As you pursue your dream, it has been interesting to see it unfold over the past couple of years. Your phenomenal growth in that time has been awesome and inspiring. It is truly the beginning of what should promise to be very exciting life for you. Congratulations on your successes thus far. Congratulations, also, to you and your team, Finn, Evin and Ferdia, your awesome videographer, as well as many others, for putting together such a great video. As always, I wish you much amazing success in the future. No regrets!
Wow! What an amazing video of your life so far. You will reach the stars! You are an Incredible person as well as performer. You are so honest and pure. God bless you as you go forth. 🙏✝️❤️
Happy birthday dear Cuan, Thank you so much for your Video from the Caribbean. I Loved your singing together with the band, your words your good looking and also the Performance, especially in your black Jacket with the white Shirt Open! WOW IN this Video I das your lovely Mom and Dad for the first time; now I know where you got your looking from! I waited with this Comment till today to say my best congratulations to you for this Special Das wishing you all the best for your Life and your career, always listen to your heart.

Cuan, please don’t ever be discouraged by the pace of your success. Remember, 33,000 people, so far, have all the confidence in the world of who Cuan Durkin is as a human being, we believe in your mountain of talent, skills and accomplishments, and are very excited for you and your future! Over and over, we are left wanting more🤗. Thank you to all involved for this most recent intimate collective work and contribution to your entire compilation thus far! ❤️🇨🇦
Nice to see you happy and fulfilled . I wish you all the best for your future. Your still my favourite male singer. I'm glad I found you today I often think of you and its nice to hear your voice.xx val
Thank you so so much ,Cuan and Ferdia for this wonderful video which gave us such a lovely insight into Who Cuan is. Also, please thank all those who participated in the video .🥰 Cuan, you are a very, very talented , gracious,kind, humble and unassuming young man who is matured beyond his years ! For a 19 year old, you have accomplished a lot and you have a very good outlook to life too. Kudos to your parents and Anne Marie! And we are so fortunate to get to know you , Ferdia and Evin… all brothers so talented and always very supportive of each other! 🥰 Cuan, you truly are one of a kind and is a great inspiration to many! 😍 Wishing you good health always( so happy to hear you have recovered from Covid ), happiness and may all your aspirations be realized soonest possible each time it comes!❤️🙏🥰😊
Thank you Martina, Susan and Molly. It is truly amazing to see such a young man with such strong moral compass( as mentioned by Simon Fennel here). Be Kind to everyone Be Fair to everyone Be honest Appreciates people to be straight up Don’t treat someone as if he or she is below oneself Never take anything for granted Besides being so gifted and talented, Cuan truly is wise beyond his years !!! ❤️
Jane I appreciated reading some quotes from CUAN himself. You have studied this film, good job. In my opinion much of what Cuan believes is because he truely is an old soul. So many of his values can not be taught. They come from deep within ones soul. The source that fills CUAN'S voice with emotion and passion. Also providing Cuan the ability to be an artist. All combining to create a vocal experience that no one can compare.
An amazing end to what sounds like a successful year at college. You seem to have found a talented music partner in Finn and put together with filmmaker Ferdia and the lovely Evin you have plenty of support. Always thought you were very efficient getting everything organised and looking smart, didnt realize your parents were there with you. What a lovely family. Anyway Cuan it was a very professional film. Well done Ferdia. Finn and the band were great, thanks to Finn for all his work, as for the main man, well I suppose he was OK. Just kidding, very special, thank you Cuan.
I am one of your biggest fans in Canada. Keep following your dream! You are a great performer! I enjoy Evin and Ferdias hard work too!!! Wow love your accent. So happy to learn more about you!
Thanks Ferdia, you did an excellent job. Everyone who knows your films and follows you appreciates your perfection and dedication! So happy to have found you! 👏👏👏😊
Yes, Martina. Ferdia is very very talented in making captivating videos and also his voice is so clear and soothing as one listens to his excellent in depth knowledge of the places he takes us to in Unordinary World… always makes history comes alive!🥰
Wow! Amazing…such. A gift you are sharing with us. Love that you are enjoying and beginning to realize how we appreciate what you’re singing and building for your future. Have a blast thank you
I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Terrific to see you taking up these opportunities and running with them. That was some location! As Arthur Askey (comedian) said, 'Do not waste your life hoping for that golden opportunity to come your way, there's usually only one in a lifetime, instead take every little opportunity which arrives, for they will make your life golden". Enjoy your next journey around the sun. X
Great movie. Please stay humble and loving. Shape the world around you with your gifts, don't let world overcome you and make you someone your not! Your parents seem so For You, what a blessing! You look at young stars that made it, their families and lives are so upside down and in strife. Remember your roots and anchor yourself to what is Good! Excited to see you growing!
Cuan..this is Exactly what I knew You could Do.....Keep on going ! 💫 Amazing living Your life..isn't it ?! 🤗 with Fun, knowing what you want to do . All the Best .....Sweet darlin Cuan ♥️🙏⭐️ Very Nice video !
@@CuanDurkin Aww , just so Proud to be able to say I know you, when You are a big star ⭐️ singing All over...🎙 In a way I feel I do know you 🤫☺️ since hearing and seeing you in Dublin...😍 from USA darlin Cuan and just Must know...You're Going to do it ...but.. You already Are...👏Enjoy yourself 🥰♥️
Great video! Thanks for sharing your adventure so far with us :) PS: You say you feel lucky, but I think people create their own luck to a large extent. So, I'd say the 'luck' is actually YOU. You're creating your own success. Your star is rising! And, I'm sure many more great things are just around the corner for you.
I still miss you busking.. it was fun to see... but it is great to see this and see where you are heading. You are still so young - your whole life at your feet. Yes you are lucky - but as you said with hard work and determination you make your own luck. You seem to have an old soul in your young mind... not a bad thing at all. Do you miss your dogs?
So ICYMI Ferdia elicits from Cuan his feelings when he opens a performance and goes from doubt to connection with his audience--to his happy place that it's all about. Moments later Ferdia closes the film with that exact magic moment as it crystallizes, but not before having a little fun showing us the "smooth operator" in all his considerable glory getting ready to go out there and work his magic. It's Cuan's story but his real luck is in having a brother who knows how to tell it. Like a boss.
It appears you have established a core of devoted fans. I believe many of us learned of your talent by watching your duets with Allie on her TH-cam channel. Many of us return to them because they were magical and highlighted how special you guys are. I know you are very busy in your life but I have to ask because a significant core of us have wishful fantasies. Is playing with Allie sometime inthe future a conceivable thought. No pressure. Just one devoted fan.
Andrew, I have high hopes that Cuan and Allie will organize an event or even a CD together. They both have their separate, unique personas but they both know (and hear constantly from fans like us, I'm sure) how much appreciated a reunion would be. You are not alone in revisiting the Grafton Street videos of the past couple of years. I do it on a daily basis. We live in hope.
Thank you Andrew for your incredibly kind and respectful comment!! 🥰 I don't think we'll be doing anything for awhile but never say never ❤❤❤ thanks again!
Congrats on the Guildhall selection. We once spent a week there at a West End drama camp with my daughter. Love the Barbican area! Cheers and all the best. - Nashville, Music City USA
Cuan, all the way from South Africa. You've inspired me with your cover of All I want which I now sing myself. You've got it. I think you are going to be a big name in the years coming.
Thanks for sharing your great life journey update. Luck is labor under correct knowledge. I’m so excited you are getting to do what you love in life and what you was designed and born to do. Your so talented many safe travels as you continue your journey through life.
You have an amazing voice, it's not suited to a lot of todays music but you can do some serious damage to other of today's and yesterday years songs. You voice is deep and rich, not sure if that is because of being classically trained. When you sing in Italian it's stunning the rolling 'R's' - so sexy. Good luck. Enjoyed a peep into your world. You have an amazing support group and family. Not just you, a family with a lot of talent
Luck? More like talent that just doesn't stop. Cuan has a unique persoality that's probably attributed to Finn and mom and dad. His talent just doesn't stop. He's great for binge listening.
Well done and thanks for sharing this intimate and personal insight. That you are only 19 but have a good strong moral compass is a tribute both to your ability to listen and learn and to your parents, teachers and coach whom have all guided you thus far. As for your God given talent what is there to add that hasn't already been said here and elsewhere. Simply Divine. Dean Martin re-incarnate. Keep on entertaining us all so well but more importantly keep on enjoying it yourself. It may not be as exotic as the Caribbean but I look forward to the day when I can welcome you, Evin and the team to sunny, friendly and musically aware, Liverpool, to sing for us. I am sure you will all feel at home here too.
The first time I heard you sing was just a little bit when you joined in with Allie Sherlock singing Unchained Melody. I was blown away by your voice. Keep singing!!!
Yes, Love that duo!!!!
You are an absolute superstar Cuan. You are destined to be world class. Your parents must be so very proud of you and your brother ⭐️⭐️

Cuan, with your beautiful voice, fabulous stage presence, personality, vision of what you want, and being a “little” humble (which is commendable) I believe you will go far, God speed.
He needs to develop his own style and sing with feeling-not like a robotic opera singer unless he is looking to do opera.

Glad school is going well. Your voice has gotten even better, hard to imagine. Those Elvis Presley moves at the end were very amazing!! Cute crack in vocals at the end, is all good. 😀 Thanks so much for sharing and I hope you never completely abandon your channel 😀 😊 ❤️ 💙 💗

This is a bit late but i just wanted to say how i’ve been a fan since 2019 and i’m so proud to see how far you’ve come and how much you’ve improved. I’ve never even had a full conversation with you but with how you’re so sheerly happy you always are, it makes me feel like your an old friend💗

Thank you Jackie for always being here 🥰❤❤
Well done for following your dream Cuan, I've been following you for a while but its great to get this behind the scenes catch up. My son (a few years younger than you) is looking at a similar journey classical into swing and contemporary, and as with you mum and dad are his support act. We'll follow you with great interest. Cheers from Australia.
Absolutely loved this video, stay humble and awesome!
First saw you on tik tok, busking long time ago. Congratulations on getting where you are now 💙🏴
Eons ago, my guitar teacher once, or maybe twice, told me, "James, if you have a dream in life, you should pursue it. If you don't, you will live a life of regret." As you pursue your dream, it has been interesting to see it unfold over the past couple of years. Your phenomenal growth in that time has been awesome and inspiring. It is truly the beginning of what should promise to be very exciting life for you. Congratulations on your successes thus far. Congratulations, also, to you and your team, Finn, Evin and Ferdia, your awesome videographer, as well as many others, for putting together such a great video. As always, I wish you much amazing success in the future. No regrets!
Perfect! ‼‼‼
Wow! What an amazing video of your life so far. You will reach the stars! You are an Incredible person as well as performer. You are so honest and pure. God bless you as you go forth. 🙏✝️❤️

Thank you so so much ,Cuan and Ferdia for this wonderful video which gave us such a lovely insight into Who Cuan is. Also, please thank all those who participated in the video .🥰
Cuan, you are a very, very talented , gracious,kind, humble and unassuming young man who is matured beyond his years ! For a 19 year old, you have accomplished a lot and you have a very good outlook to life too. Kudos to your parents and Anne Marie! And we are so fortunate to get to know you , Ferdia and Evin… all brothers so talented and always very supportive of each other! 🥰
Cuan, you truly are one of a kind and is a great inspiration to many! 😍
Wishing you good health always( so happy to hear you have recovered from Covid ), happiness and may all your aspirations be realized soonest possible each time it comes!❤️🙏🥰😊
Hi Jane! You nailed it again! 💞💞💞
Lovely comprehensive response, Jane! ❤️🇨🇦
You said so much we're all feeling, Jane.
Thank you Martina, Susan and Molly. It is truly amazing to see such a young man with such strong moral compass( as mentioned by Simon Fennel here).
Be Kind to everyone
Be Fair to everyone
Be honest
Appreciates people to be straight up
Don’t treat someone as if he or she is below oneself
Never take anything for granted
Besides being so gifted and talented, Cuan truly is wise beyond his years !!! ❤️
Jane I appreciated reading some quotes from CUAN himself. You have studied this film, good job. In my opinion much of what Cuan believes is because he truely is an old soul. So many of his values can not be taught. They come from deep within ones soul. The source that fills CUAN'S voice with emotion and passion. Also providing Cuan the ability to be an artist. All combining to create a vocal experience that no one can compare.
An amazing end to what sounds like a successful year at college. You seem to have found a talented music partner in Finn and put together with filmmaker Ferdia and the lovely Evin you have plenty of support. Always thought you were very efficient getting everything organised and looking smart, didnt realize your parents were there with you. What a lovely family.
Anyway Cuan it was a very professional film. Well done Ferdia. Finn and the band were great, thanks to Finn for all his work, as for the main man, well I suppose he was OK. Just kidding, very special, thank you Cuan.
Ohhhhhh my God!!!!!!!!! Where did you get that amazing, amazing voice??????........bless you Cuan. I❤y 🤗❤🤗❤🤗❤🤗❤🤗❤🤗❤🤗🤗❤🤗
Thanks so much Jackie! Two amazing teachers and incredible parents 🥰❤❤
Beautiful! Love to see more. I have viewed Cuan on youtube. Go live your dream Cuan!
I am one of your biggest fans in Canada. Keep following your dream! You are a great performer! I enjoy Evin and Ferdias hard work too!!! Wow love your accent. So happy to learn more about you!
Thanks Ferdia, you did an excellent job. Everyone who knows your films and follows you appreciates your perfection and dedication! So happy to have found you! 👏👏👏😊
Yes, Martina. Ferdia is very very talented in making captivating videos and also his voice is so clear and soothing as one listens to his excellent in depth knowledge of the places he takes us to in Unordinary World… always makes history comes alive!🥰
@@janec2172 I endorse this message 😜
@@unOrdinaryWorld Yes, Ferdia!!!💪😊

¡BRAVOO CUAN DURKIN!.
Múy bien. ¡Buenos éxitos, para este "Gran Estreno".
🎶🔥♥💯👍👍👍
Muchas gracias Fernando!! 🥰❤❤
I thoroughly enjoyed your video. Terrific to see you taking up these opportunities and running with them. That was some location! As Arthur Askey (comedian) said, 'Do not waste your life hoping for that golden opportunity to come your way, there's usually only one in a lifetime, instead take every little opportunity which arrives, for they will make your life golden". Enjoy your next journey around the sun. X
What remarkable advice and it certainly points out how Cuan finds "luck".
So glad to hear you enjoyed! A great quote as well 🥰❤❤
Good luck to you 🍀❤️ you are amazing singer and your charisma is incredible 🤗😉🌞⭐❣️
Cyan I’m so proud of you chasing your dream!! You will continue to be blessed!! Greetings from Texas USA 🇺🇸
Thank you so so much Laura! 🥰❤❤
Great movie. Please stay humble and loving. Shape the world around you with your gifts, don't let world overcome you and make you someone your not! Your parents seem so For You, what a blessing! You look at young stars that made it, their families and lives are so upside down and in strife. Remember your roots and anchor yourself to what is Good! Excited to see you growing!
I love your family and singing u need to make more of them and I love u with Allie sherlock
After watching your video I’m “Feeling good “ Thanks to Cuan and everyone involved.
Cuan..this is Exactly what I knew You could Do.....Keep on going ! 💫 Amazing living Your life..isn't it ?! 🤗 with Fun, knowing what you want to do . All the Best .....Sweet darlin Cuan ♥️🙏⭐️ Very Nice video !
Thank you so much Darlin 🥰 so happy to heard you enjoyed it ❤❤
@@CuanDurkin Aww , just so Proud to be able to say I know you, when You are a big star ⭐️ singing All over...🎙 In a way I feel I do know you 🤫☺️ since hearing and seeing you in Dublin...😍 from USA darlin Cuan and just Must know...You're Going to do it ...but.. You already Are...👏Enjoy yourself 🥰♥️
Its so overwhelming how far you have come, so proud of you cuan 🥰❤
Great video! Thanks for sharing your adventure so far with us :) PS: You say you feel lucky, but I think people create their own luck to a large extent. So, I'd say the 'luck' is actually YOU. You're creating your own success. Your star is rising! And, I'm sure many more great things are just around the corner for you.
I still miss you busking.. it was fun to see... but it is great to see this and see where you are heading. You are still so young - your whole life at your feet. Yes you are lucky - but as you said with hard work and determination you make your own luck. You seem to have an old soul in your young mind... not a bad thing at all. Do you miss your dogs?
So ICYMI Ferdia elicits from Cuan his feelings when he opens a performance and goes from doubt to connection with his audience--to his happy place that it's all about. Moments later Ferdia closes the film with that exact magic moment as it crystallizes, but not before having a little fun showing us the "smooth operator" in all his considerable glory getting ready to go out there and work his magic. It's Cuan's story but his real luck is in having a brother who knows how to tell it. Like a boss.
I'm inclined to agree 😜
@@unOrdinaryWorld 😝😘
Awesome tape both just listening to you and your progression your career but also listening to you sing again 😄
Nice video, very humble on your part. And as always great music.
I have been following you and Allie and wish you all the best!
This is a wonderful documentary about you. You’re so wise at such a young age. I’m enjoying watching your journey. ❤
Thank you so much for creating and sharing this video! Love from Claudia (palatinate).
My pleasure! All credit to my amazing brother UnOrdinaryWorld 🥰❤❤
Geez what an absolute delight Cuan is! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Never give up! Always believe in yourself, practice, be strong, make the right decisions and go for it! Make your dreams come true! 🤩🤩🤩❤
High 5 to that , Martina🥰
I'll give it my best shot! 🥰❤❤
It appears you have established a core of devoted fans. I believe many of us learned of your talent by watching your duets with Allie on her TH-cam channel. Many of us return to them because they were magical and highlighted how special you guys are. I know you are very busy in your life but I have to ask because a significant core of us have wishful fantasies. Is playing with Allie sometime inthe future a conceivable thought. No pressure. Just one devoted fan.
Andrew, I have high hopes that Cuan and Allie will organize an event or even a CD together. They both have their separate, unique personas but they both know (and hear constantly from fans like us, I'm sure) how much appreciated a reunion would be. You are not alone in revisiting the Grafton Street videos of the past couple of years. I do it on a daily basis. We live in hope.
Those two had a special chemistry performing together. Let's hope that they will perform together from time to time again at some point in the future.
You and allie special The Piano Man, Cant help falling in love etc etc. U are truely missed on Grafton Street with Allie.
Thank you Andrew for your incredibly kind and respectful comment!! 🥰 I don't think we'll be doing anything for awhile but never say never ❤❤❤ thanks again!
Talent and Heart is a increadable combination. Keep those wheels rolling. Godspeed
Keep smiling, please stay true to yourself, never stop feeling blessed and continue to stay your gorgeous chilled self xxx
Congrats on the Guildhall selection. We once spent a week there at a West End drama camp with my daughter. Love the Barbican area! Cheers and all the best.

Cuan, all the way from South Africa. You've inspired me with your cover of All I want which I now sing myself. You've got it. I think you are going to be a big name in the years coming.
Love it 😍. Thank you
Thanks for sharing your great life journey update.
Luck is labor under correct knowledge. I’m so excited you are getting to do what you love in life and what you was designed and born to do. Your so talented many safe travels as you continue your journey through life.
You have an amazing voice, it's not suited to a lot of todays music but you can do some serious damage to other of today's and yesterday years songs. You voice is deep and rich, not sure if that is because of being classically trained. When you sing in Italian it's stunning the rolling 'R's' - so sexy. Good luck. Enjoyed a peep into your world. You have an amazing support group and family. Not just you, a family with a lot of talent
Luck? More like talent that just doesn't stop. Cuan has a unique persoality that's probably attributed to Finn and mom and dad. His talent just doesn't stop. He's great for binge listening.
👏from one binge listener to another! ❤️🇨🇦
Ahh thank you so much!! 🥰❤
Well done and thanks for sharing this intimate and personal insight. That you are only 19 but have a good strong moral compass is a tribute both to your ability to listen and learn and to your parents, teachers and coach whom have all guided you thus far. As for your God given talent what is there to add that hasn't already been said here and elsewhere. Simply Divine. Dean Martin re-incarnate. Keep on entertaining us all so well but more importantly keep on enjoying it yourself. It may not be as exotic as the Caribbean but I look forward to the day when I can welcome you, Evin and the team to sunny, friendly and musically aware, Liverpool, to sing for us. I am sure you will all feel at home here too.
So well said !!And I could not agree with you more on his strong moral compass and his God given talent!!!👍👍👍
PERFECT vegas voice. Hope to see you on a stage there.
