That's Leona for you, for sure. I remember her winning Britain's Got Talent long time ago. One of the most humble person you could ever meet and she hasn't changed ... at all. If you have ear/headphones, put them on and listen to this performance. It's what you call "perfect pitch" from Kodi. This year, if ANYONE deserved to win, it was this guy. He was number one to a lot of people from the beginning. And he is definitely a hoot, isn't he? Love his personality AND his mother.
Kodi is a gift from heaven. Once in awhile humanity receives something so pure and beautiful that it takes us back and makes us realize how special our lives and our world truly is.
Rossanna G; Amen. I saw my son today, my son has Autism and is 25 yrs old. It was good to have him home for a visit. I wish he could be with me forever.
@@saiyongdawn7756 God bless you and your family. I have two grown children on the spectrum. My eyes just couldn't stop dripping watching this beautiful talented young man. I would definitely go see him perform.
Omg this gives me HOPE for my son! My sons 4 & he’s legally blind with autism too!! It made me cry cuz I cant help but think of my son as I’m watching Kodi! You are such an inspiration Kodi!! You are such an amazing artist & person! You already are a wonderful person just the way you are & your artistry just speaks the amazing person you are! You can inspire many more like you & my son & their families too!! I think you are far better than any other contestant on this show! What it took for you to get this far is far greater than any other person on that show! Don’t stop being you!!!!
@@eddiemurphy21 I don't think you know who Leona Lewis is. She's a MUCH more powerful singer and capable of much better than this and could steal the show. She isn't there for that, she's there to help with his final performance.
@@eddiemurphy21 It's you that has no clue. Her exclusive goal in this performance is to make Kodi look as good as possible to help him win. This is HER SONG for God's sake. She could effortlessly blow the roof off off that place...give me a break!
@@FortexVize lol, you don't truly know these type of duets until you realize that the featured person is made sure that s/he is never outperformed by the other singer. Leona just decided not to sing at her full potential but complemented his singing. In fact I'd have to guess she was very careful about that because women vocalists naturally sing at higher tones and usually overshadow the male singers. To add to that, she definitely can't singer over him because the judges are listening to Kodi, not Leona and she would have to keep it low so that the judges can hear him well.
When I was in middle school in California, there was this incredible young man in my choir class. He was blind, and he had the most amazing voice, personality, and could play the piano amazingly well to boot. He had perfect pitch. I remember the choir teacher would ask him for a note, and he would give it. Perfect every single time. Kodi, I am so so so proud of you. Your talent amazed me then. Finding out what you have accomplished, that you are still being so authentically you, and that you are sharing your incredible talent with the world, it makes my heart absolutely sing. I am so proud of you, Kodi. You are touching the stars dude! You are incredible, and you've made it. I am so honored to have crossed paths with you.
I love how Leona didn’t steal the spotlight we all know this girl has vocals. She let Kodi shine and she sound effortlessly beautiful doing the duet with him ❤️
Tim McLeod seriously, man? What an immature, pathetic, useless comment. You probably didn’t know this, but Leona Lewis won X-Factor while you were still in your dad’s nutsack.
It's amazing that music brings this kid to a place where he can be pain free and happy. His Mom found where she could meet Kodi in the middle of the unknown world of autism. Moving
English Teacher with Sauce What she meant is for a lot of people who still didn't know what is autism. And how effectively interact with them. That's it.
MellowArmy - my son is 29, but to me he will always be “a kid.” Perhaps that becomes ok when you’re over 50. And I disagree, someone at age 21 is STILL a kid- nothing to do with autism.
Helder De Almeida all you critique artists cause you lack any skill. You couldn’t hold a candle to either one of them so maybe just keep your mouth shut?
Ms. Lewis was so gracious and I agree she didn’t try to take the limelight away. What a lady! These two sounded so good together. This young man is amazing beyond belief. Love how his Mom believes in him.
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 King James Version 15 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
@@SoggySlopster there's a lot of music artist who are underrated, like her. Only reason she sounded "average" during this performance is because she wasn't trying to steal the show. She has a nice tone & a good octave range so to call her "average" is an insult....just my honest opinion
Kodi Lee is an extra-ordinarily talented Musician. To play the Piano blind, and to sing with that emotion. WOW!!!! But full credit to Leona Lewis for showing such class and not trying to steal the Limelight with her vocals but complimenting Kodi Lee. Stunning, just stunningly good.
That is sooo true, my twin brother has learning problems and its amazing when you concentrate on what they can do instead of what the doctors tell they cannot do. Watching Kodi is so humbling x
Best duet performance on this show ever. Their voices complement each other beautifully. And I think it’s better than the original by far. One of my favorite songs to listen too.
This guy is f***ing amazing!! His performances throughout this series had me in tears. Incredible how well he can play considering he is blind. Your a true inspiration my man. So proud!!
Why does it feel that whenever he’s performing, somebody is taking over his body. Literally he is a very different man when performing. Truly amazing! I’m just seeing these type of scenes on anime/movies but I can’t believe I would see one irl. Thank you, kodi!
If you listen to Ozzy Osborne , he is the same way. He can't talk right but when he sings it's a whole other person. There are a few artists like this ...Kodi is just one of the awesome few in this world
Singing comes from a different part of the brain than speech. Learnt that from a speech and language therapist when I worked in a stroke ward. Hes absolutely fantastic!
No, Kodi should not have won. America's Got Talent should be renamed to America's Got Sympathy. Show Completely lost all credibility. People voted for sympathy and NOT talent. Back stories on any contestants should NOT have any bearing on the outcome. WHAT A TRAVISTY!
Kodi Lee like Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, George Shearing, and Nobuyuki Tsujii. They are blessed to reach outside their physical darkness and touch us in ours. Amazing!!!
I wasn't logged in to the You Tube , so I literally fetched my Own phone so I could come back and comment for this video. Kodi Lee, made me search for more of Leona Lewis and I realized she is far too good a singer for the present times. Some of her solo live and other performances are simply mesmerizing. BUT.... The way she kept a low profile during this duet with Kodi, speaks a ton about her real character. Hats off to the lady.... Totally Divine Humbleness Personified. Leona Lewis......
Now everyone needs to vote for Kodi in the People's Choice Awards for Best Competition Contestant in 2019. Vote with your emails and phones. He has been nominated.
Leona could of showed what great talent she had...but she held back,for the winner!!! probably as instructed...which was really unselfish of her. But she held back too much.Because she's GREAT!!! He was good, but not deserving of a winner. Did he win due his disability with talent, or just talent? Not to be rude and he was good, but that is a legit question. The people felt sorry for him and amazed that he could sing being autistic and blind. Incredible but not the best talent in the show!
BandzFN sorry but she sounded terrible (I think she must have had audio issues). I only kept listening because I wanted to hear Kodi; otherwise I would have turned it off. 😬
My brother has severe aspurgers, but when he draws or paints I am absolutely blown away by his talent and creativity. He is very capable and astonishing when he does something that he finds interesting.
If Kodi could see he would've thought Leona Lewis was an angel, so incredibly beautiful and she let Kodi shine brightest as she stepped back and let Kodi soak it all in. Leona is a class act, to go with her talent and beauty.
This duet really showcase his talent. An amazing song choice. People without a disability barely have half his talent. Somehow, god always find a way to touch us when we least expects it.
People like Kodi are the reason I know God gives certain people these amazing gifts. It shows us how important, special, and amazing life is. Kodi you are a true gift to your family, friends, and fans from God
@@BarocaS2 please don't mock God because of our shyness to include disabled people into "normal" community. Nobody is perfect, which is our chance for coming together in charity. Jesus, the son of God, showed us how to do it. God is so good, He invests so much for people, best example is sacrifice of Jesus for our bad deeds (and I expierienced His ressurection with my own life btw). Speeking for myself, I am so happy for seeing inclusion at its finest in this video👍
I watched this time by time when I thinking about my son , he is almost 5 years old autism , he doesn’t communicate but he love to learn piano by himself when I watch TH-cam ! I am so worry for him but when I watch video of you it’s give me a big hope ! You are amazing! You won everything overcome everything, you are incredible! I love your voice Kodi Lee
I have an Asperger son. This makes me cry and cry and cry. I can so feel!!!!!! with his mom. It is such!!!! a long, difficult and painful way. How on earth can one describe the long journey. My son has one talent, has studied now at University and I just hope that he will one day be as happy a Kodi.
For those who don't know, Kodi performed "You Are the Reason" on semifinals AND finals. That song is written and sung by Calum Scott - a competitor on BGT that Simon used his Gold Buzzer on. Simon's impeccable ability to spot future stars and elevate them is what made this song possible for Kodi to choose and dazzle everyone. Talk about good begets good.
May this young man be encouraged for his gift... As an Auntie of two autistic nephews because of the DPT shots, l want to commend this mother and family for all you do everyday.... Kody, God has blessed you with a voice from heaven.... Sweet Aloha
Although Kodi story is sad and some may say tragic, it's also his ability to overcome that disability that we all take for granted. The ability to see the world has lead us to see all that is evil and corrupt, hence maybe that's why we are so judgemental to others and ourselves. Our imagination and creativity becomes tainted and limited by what we have seen. We become harder and colder. In kodi's situation, he does not know or comprehend what evil is thus has not been tainted. His perception of the world is different from ours. His mind will forever be that of a child. He is talented in the aspect that when he sings to you, it's from a place of pureness, untouched and untainted by evil. Maybe that is why we cry hearing him because he reminds us of the goodness in this world and in ourselves that we set aside. Now anyone can say a word or complete sentences or sing but can they sing into the existence of a word? Can you feel each word that he sings? Remember that as the world gets colder and harsher, and we dont recognize ourselves anymore, we will yearn for this. Let's be more compassionate towards eachother and treat eachother how we want to be treated. I did not vote base on views, likes, tweets or trending. I voted for someone who will change the world and I believed kodi is that person.
Wished there were a million more of you. This world would be such a better place. You seem like one awesome person. Thank you so much for sharing this. Tears flowing, for sure.
@@canyoubelievethis220 we are all around you. Take a second to talk to someone meaningfully and you'll be surprise that at the core of it all, we all share the same things. Ask a stranger/ friend to Tell me your stories and share me your pain so that we can begin to heal eachother.
Princess Tatyanna He is living proof that you can make your dreams come true! No matter what your disabilities may be. The only true disability in life is a bad attitude.
As an aunt of a child with autism, Kodi will always have a spot in my heart. Not only of his amazing talent it's also how he touches the soul of people who are listening to him... what an amazing creation of God❤🙏
Folks, we did it, we did it! It was an inspirational journey for all us. No matter what you are going through in life, never give up and stay true to yourself. There is a Kodi in us!
LOL! What a justification. Dude her voice was shaky, her vocal control was practically non-existent, she was off pitch at times and her harmonization wasn't on point. This had nothing to do with letting him shine...she wasn't very good on this night. Sorry...
Not only is Cody amazing but his mother seems so genuine as well. How great for the family to share in his gift and how we are all responding with such appreciation. What a tear jerker.
This is the most touching emotional thing in 2019. The fact that the finals was the same song that got us all emotional when he fot the golden buzzer is very deep and moving.
None of the other contestants ever stood a chance. The moment Kodi stepped out on that stage at his audition he was going to win. What an amazing soul and what an amazing talent. My step brother is low functioning autistic. He’s 17 but on the level of a three year old. Kodi represents the hope of families with special needs children. Their hope that their children will find a meaning and a place in this world. You can’t watch him perform and not tear up if you love someone who is special needs. Thank you for sharing your son with this world.
I love how Leona used her vocals to supplement his performance without stealing the attention; keeping our focus on him/his voice.
@Chad Gochis shut up, no one is perfect
@@spartans7748 Maybe not, but you can't say Kodi isn't amazing.

She sang in perfect harmony to let Kodi shine, what a class and singer!
😀
She's very humble. Love that about her :)
He is better than her!!
But let’s talk about the FACT THAT HES BLIND AND IS AUTISTIC AND HES SO TALENTED
Sparrow_Dragon_Slayer she didn’t want to overpower Kodi that’s why she didn’t sound that good
Thank you Leona for giving him the opportunity to shine. You complement one another beautifully
She sang beautifully and complimented Kodi perfectly. She is a real pro and very nice person.
@@internetpeople6113 yes she is. My faith in humanity is restored
I agree. She highlighted Codi Lee's voice even more emotionally.
She's a beautiful person inside and out....what an angel . She was Kodi's perfect partner and a match made in Heaven
They reallly do.....I can see them recording and selling a number one hit in the future.
Kodi is a gift from heaven. Once in awhile humanity receives something so pure and beautiful that it takes us back and makes us realize how special our lives and our world truly is.

Kodi is one of a kind.. there will never be another Kodi Lee.
Evan Dow I’m telling you, he’s the next Stevie Wonder!
Exactly what I was thinking.
You should look up the blind autistic savant piano player called Derek Paravicini he will blow your mind
When he sings he can say words normally but when he speaks he can’t. It’s weitd
Kodi just proved to the rest of humanity that no setback is final.well done maestro!!
That is sooo true, my twin brother has learning problems and its amazing when you concentrate on what they can do instead of what the doctors tell they cannot do. Watching Kodi is so humbling x
True
My son is autistic and has MS and just graduated from college. Boundaries are what you make them.
Best duet performance on this show ever. Their voices complement each other beautifully. And I think it’s better than the original by far. One of my favorite songs to listen too.
Really?
anyone notice how this was the song that was playing when kodi got the golden buzzer
yup
YES I just noticed that
That's how I knew abt the song yaaas❤️❤️❤️
@Owen Holland Kanigan he meant the backgroud music that played during the golden buzzer
yes i wanted to hear him sing this song so bad
Standing ovation to the work, dedication, patience involved by Kodi and all family members. They all deserve this win.
what kills me the most is seeing how much joy and happiness he has after.
Damn...I'm just seeing this authentic display of raw talent by Kodi, as a fellow musician this young man has tremendous potential...2022
Unbelievable Talent!!! That's Why He Won!!
Really?

May God be with you brother
One of the greatest performances on AGT. I cried the first time I watched this.
It's one of my favourite songs and Kodi's performance was spot on!
This make me cry.... well deserved kodi Lee... Leona Lewis is my favorite singer
Same with me..
Go Kodi!...and Leona...you are SO beautiful!!
Wow - to duet with someone is challenging enough but to do so with no visual cues from your singing partner is pretty amazing. Kudos, Kodi.
One of the best performance I have ever seen in my life
Incredible, beautiful.
Amazing Leona Lewis! I love how you gave in on that performance for Kodi Lee! You are a highly respected artist!👍🏻
My brother has severe aspurgers, but when he draws or paints I am absolutely blown away by his talent and creativity. He is very capable and astonishing when he does something that he finds interesting.
Dyslexic Teletubby you should post his artworks and help him be discovered.
@@blaaaaaaaa2017 not a bad idea at all
God bless him and his talent! I hope for the best! In bad or good times!
I love how Leona gave him his moment.
Deon F she legit held back! What a class act!
@@JoannC830 She's holding back her 4 octave range. She's down to earth.
hardly. her voice is worn out.
@@brianbytheocean you're funny
Deon F Nah, she’s just not as good as him.
His range is impeccable
I want a Heck Yeaaaaaaa T Shirt. This young Man is a true Blessing to the world. God Bless you Kodi Lee.
Kodi Lee is the AGT 2019 winner.... Congratulations! You are well deserved...
Its ok , cody deserves to win ,but isnt obvius that they manipulated to eliminated the real star ,the girl that sing like and angel ?
jose ramirez nah, America was never going to vote her. Look at Jackie, she didn’t win either
What a perfect pair for that song. Just beautiful is all I can say. He deserves to win
Kodi has blown all our minds with his amazing talent, so glad he is still going strong! Leona Lewis still beautiful and gracious as ever!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
That was heavenly beautiful!
Yvette Strickland yes it was 💕💕💕💕
If Kodi could see he would've thought Leona Lewis was an angel, so incredibly beautiful and she let Kodi shine brightest as she stepped back and let Kodi soak it all in. Leona is a class act, to go with her talent and beauty.
What a beautiful performance. God bless you Kodi, wherever life takes you after this which I'm sure is going to be great!!!
This duet really showcase his talent. An amazing song choice.
People without a disability barely have half his talent. Somehow, god always find a way to touch us when we least expects it.
People like Kodi are the reason I know God gives certain people these amazing gifts. It shows us how important, special, and amazing life is. Kodi you are a true gift to your family, friends, and fans from God
Does God also give others insurmountable handicaps?
Pity God gave him 2 disabilities with the talent. I wonder if kodi sees it as a fair trade. I personally wouldn't
It's amazing how he can play the piano blind
@@BarocaS2 he serves as an inspiration to all the disabled people in the world. That's his God-given purpose.
@@BarocaS2 please don't mock God because of our shyness to include disabled people into "normal" community. Nobody is perfect, which is our chance for coming together in charity. Jesus, the son of God, showed us how to do it. God is so good, He invests so much for people, best example is sacrifice of Jesus for our bad deeds (and I expierienced His ressurection with my own life btw).
Speeking for myself, I am so happy for seeing inclusion at its finest in this video👍
I watched this time by time when I thinking about my son , he is almost 5 years old autism , he doesn’t communicate but he love to learn piano by himself when I watch TH-cam ! I am so worry for him but when I watch video of you it’s give me a big hope ! You are amazing! You won everything overcome everything, you are incredible! I love your voice Kodi Lee
So touching!!!! I think this is his best performance in all the competition
I consider dislike as 'kids accidentally tap it.' Adults certainly can't do that. Everyone knows this guy is AWESOME. Big respect from Philippines.
I love how she can make him shine even with her presence.
I have an Asperger son. This makes me cry and cry and cry. I can so feel!!!!!! with his mom. It is such!!!! a long, difficult and painful way. How on earth can one describe the long journey. My son has one talent, has studied now at University and I just hope that he will one day be as happy a Kodi.
God. I can’t even put into words how much Kodi Lee has just changed the world. Wow.
David Sturgeon you need to crawl out from that small little rock in that small world bro. His audition alone had over 400 million views.
@David Sturgeon I will politely ask you to please go F*CK off
For those who don't know, Kodi performed "You Are the Reason" on semifinals AND finals. That song is written and sung by Calum Scott - a competitor on BGT that Simon used his Gold Buzzer on. Simon's impeccable ability to spot future stars and elevate them is what made this song possible for Kodi to choose and dazzle everyone. Talk about good begets good.
1.4k dislikes were from the people who had too much tears in their eyes and couldn’t see the like button
You made my day 🤣🤣👍🏼
Fish Sauce hahahhaha you right
I agree, that's incredible how many people disliked this video.
I think they are deaf .😒😒
No Tyler was just better but i stil liked it!
BELIEVE IT
kodi is THAT good...
god bless you kodi...
I may never see you in real life but i love you from the heart
This kid is an Angel on the Earth 🙏🏻🥰 God Bless him and his mommy 👩👦 words are not enough for expressing what this child can offer in this world
May this young man be encouraged for his gift... As an Auntie of two autistic nephews because of the DPT shots, l want to commend this mother and family for all you do everyday.... Kody, God has blessed you with a voice from heaven.... Sweet Aloha
That answered my question.he can sing and play perfectly with others.hes a proven winner.awesome cody.
I love how leona toned her voice to let Kodie shine..big respect to leona.and love to kodie
So happy He Won!!!! Much Deserved. Love when he claps for himself
He’s so sweet
More than v unbeatables
Plz tell
It’s a matter of personal preference. In my opinion Kodi deserves it 😉
Beggars in India are better singer than Kodi lee...AGT IS A SHITT...GO SMELL YOUR OWN ASS AMERICA...
@@sabbysarkar5203
Inferiority?
Just because others have different opinions and you called others name?
I just have to watch and listen to Kodi Lee,as often as possible. He is amazing singer,musician! Bless you Kodi ! You are loved !
Although Kodi story is sad and some may say tragic, it's also his ability to overcome that disability that we all take for granted. The ability to see the world has lead us to see all that is evil and corrupt, hence maybe that's why we are so judgemental to others and ourselves. Our imagination and creativity becomes tainted and limited by what we have seen. We become harder and colder. In kodi's situation, he does not know or comprehend what evil is thus has not been tainted. His perception of the world is different from ours. His mind will forever be that of a child. He is talented in the aspect that when he sings to you, it's from a place of pureness, untouched and untainted by evil. Maybe that is why we cry hearing him because he reminds us of the goodness in this world and in ourselves that we set aside. Now anyone can say a word or complete sentences or sing but can they sing into the existence of a word? Can you feel each word that he sings? Remember that as the world gets colder and harsher, and we dont recognize ourselves anymore, we will yearn for this. Let's be more compassionate towards eachother and treat eachother how we want to be treated.
I did not vote base on views, likes, tweets or trending. I voted for someone who will change the world and I believed kodi is that person.
Wished there were a million more of you. This world would be such a better place. You seem like one awesome person. Thank you so much for sharing this. Tears flowing, for sure.
@@canyoubelievethis220 we are all around you. Take a second to talk to someone meaningfully and you'll be surprise that at the core of it all, we all share the same things. Ask a stranger/ friend to Tell me your stories and share me your pain so that we can begin to heal eachother.
Yian Saetern this. So much.
You're INCREDIBLE as well😍
Well said.
I am autistic just like Kodi and he is very inspiring. Good job Kodi! ♥️
Princess Tatyanna Me too...me too. He’s such an inspiration for us autistics and the blind
You are also an inspiration to others princess
Princess Tatyanna He is living proof that you can make your dreams come true! No matter what your disabilities may be. The only true disability in life is a bad attitude.
Youre all so strong. Anything is possible with dedication!
keep working hard you gonna leave shiney line in the world
Kodi you’re an inspiration. Leona is my favorite singer. She was amazing tonight too.
2:12 "you are the reason" this performance melt my heart kodi lee❤️
As an aunt of a child with autism, Kodi will always have a spot in my heart. Not only of his amazing talent it's also how he touches the soul of people who are listening to him... what an amazing creation of God❤🙏
Folks, we did it, we did it! It was an inspirational journey for all us. No matter what you are going through in life, never give up and stay true to yourself. There is a Kodi in us!
He won xoxo well deserved Kodi, you are amazing
His voice is seriously so powerful. No matter what he sings it brings me to tears. Insane
leona holds back for this kid so he will shine in this performance
LOL! What a justification. Dude her voice was shaky, her vocal control was practically non-existent, she was off pitch at times and her harmonization wasn't on point. This had nothing to do with letting him shine...she wasn't very good on this night. Sorry...
@@Mmmkay10 yes you said it ❤
Well..its not her moment..its his.
Come on man.. she just can’t sing for nuts.. stop giving stupid excuses for her... she is screwing up his show..
.contrat to both of you Well done
Not only is Cody amazing but his mother seems so genuine as well. How great for the family to share in his gift and how we are all responding with such appreciation. What a tear jerker.
I really love how Leona let Kodi shines on the stage 👏👏👏
This guy touched me emotionally...I love his talent
I truly believe he was a gift from God.
Incredible duet,thank you Leona...you stay back and let Codi to shine..👏
This is the most touching emotional thing in 2019. The fact that the finals was the same song that got us all emotional when he fot the golden buzzer is very deep and moving.
Leona you did a good job by not stealing his performance 😌 music is indeed magic
Now that I’m older. I’m able to appreciate that this harmony was the best I’ve ever heard in a live performance. :)
🎉Congratulations Kodi Lee so happy for you on winning in the AGT finals.!!🎤.. you literally blew us away💣
KODI WINS???!!!! OMG. IM SO HAPPY 😭😍
None of the other contestants ever stood a chance. The moment Kodi stepped out on that stage at his audition he was going to win. What an amazing soul and what an amazing talent. My step brother is low functioning autistic. He’s 17 but on the level of a three year old. Kodi represents the hope of families with special needs children. Their hope that their children will find a meaning and a place in this world. You can’t watch him perform and not tear up if you love someone who is special needs. Thank you for sharing your son with this world.
Ladies and gentlemen I give you AGT 2019 winner... you deserve it kid
The privilege that Leona Lewis got is incredible for her to be at Kodi Lee's concert and to sing with him.
