Matt was Runner Up on Australian Idol. He was quickly offered a record deal after the season, but he turned it down so he could create the music that HE wanted and not what the corporates wanted him to.
What I absolutely love about Matt is that no matter how much you listen to him... and how much you think you can predict where he's going to go with a song... you'll ultimately be wrong... It's like he has an elastic band in his throat... I doubt he actually rehearses a lot of his tracks... he just starts, feels... goes wherever ... finishes.... Such a talent... I'm so glad you found him Dominic.... he deserves to be heard.
I love your comment and is the exact vibe I get from Matt too. And I so love how Nic is right there...like, RIGHT THERE with him. People will only understand Matt if they allow themselves to deeply listen and allow themselves to be led...
“That boy can sing and that’s it.” No truer words were spoken. I enjoy following his runs with you…he really can sing his face off. My first time hearing him was here with you (which I’m ashamed as an Aussie to admit) and he really is just so delicious to hear. I’m discovering his talent along with you. All the other Aussie artists you have covered are well known to me, but the discovery of Matt has been like finding treasure!
So many great songs to check out and enjoy. There’s a video on his channel of one of his more recent songs that features some fantastic dancing. Maybe start there. th-cam.com/video/LOCT9MYUSlE/w-d-xo.html
I once saw Matt play in someone’s back yard. It was just before “Brother” came out. Was an awesome gig. About 50 people in beanbags eating popcorn. Played for well over an hour then hung around afterwards. He’s own stuff is fantastic but he’s also a great interpreter of other peoples work. Hunt down his version of Lior’s “Bedouin song”. Actually, if you like Corby you’ll love Lior too. Thank you for showing so much love to Aussie artists. John Farnham especially is one of my all time favourites. I have so many songs I want you to see. 😀

Matt was runner up in Australian Idol in its fifth season. He should have won.. but you know how these things go.. lots of factors other than talent at play ..
lucky for us he didn't win....they would have tried to put him in some stupid little box.....like trying to trap a wild spirit in a metal cage....no, that should never happen to anyone with this immense talent
@@carolcarol3938 that’s so true. He’s resisted the urge to go commercial and winning would have forced him into a contract of some sorts. Very good point !!
I've only ever heard this sung with either passion or anger.....this version of Matts however is more like a prayer....or a lullaby to a child....wow he is a musical genius in my book
Matt has his own record label called rvrlabel. Rainbow Valley Records . YT channel RVR . Has a launch party coming up in Brisbane tickets are on sale now .
Matt is extremely hard to reach! He likes it that way. I used to live a few of streets away from him near Byron Bay. He likes being secluded. Saw him in a local coffee shop once though.
Big Man - thank you for the respect you showed Glenn Wheatley, despite not knowing much about him. Now Matt Corby - the first verse approach had shades of Aaron Neville (kinda) in my opinion. Or am I barking up the wrong tree?
th-cam.com/video/osJqU2NHhA8/w-d-xo.html This is Matt’s Australian Idol audition at the age of 16. Just shows how far he’s come since then! He’s really honed his craft.
I do believe he was on Australian idol, but I don't think he enjoyed it. He has said in interviews that they tried to stop him from being himself and tried to make home be a pop singer
Love to see you react to Matt Corby ~ All fired up - live from rainbow valley, it’s another Matt Corby classic th-cam.com/video/v6VAvSLMBSg/w-d-xo.html
So can you tell me when you will play my reaction to “Angel” Poets of the Fall Alexander Theatre Sessions. I have paid you $$5AUD via PayPal & Around $8AUD on superchat. Are you going to do my song instead of doing 2 x SIA & 5 John friggin Farnham songs
wow... Just wow... So you paid $13 for a song you want validation on... Seeing this comment has me here in the comments telling you you should have used that money to get yourself a chill pill. I hate to break it to you; you aren't the only one. 106k subscribers... calm down.

Best thing for him was not to win idol!

There’s a fragility to his voice that is so vulnerable and honest
🗣🎤Yeah Boi ! Matt Corby in the House !🤘🔥
He's so good

Wow that is the first time I have heard that and I have seen most live Matt Corby videos because well basically I just can't get enough.

Thank god he didn`t win imo
@@carolcarol3938 that’s so true. He’s resisted the urge to go commercial and winning would have forced him into a contract of some sorts. Very good point !!
Looks like he is playing in Montreal, Canada on 8th April. You should try and make it. Only looks like 800 miles away.
I've only ever heard this sung with either passion or anger.....this version of Matts however is more like a prayer....or a lullaby to a child....wow he is a musical genius in my book
love the new intro, thankyou for not destroying my ears.
This is beautiful SONG PRESENTATION.. HE IS AMAZING. hE WON AUSTRALIAN iDOL. 13 YEARS AGO. i AM SUPRISED MORE REACTORS HAVE NOT FOUND HIM.
He was the runner up in Australian Idol.
Sounds like the lyrics are sung over Empires Attraction
This mans voice just hits different
Great to see another Matt reaction. Still waiting eagerly for Untitled and Runaway though
Untitled is pure gold 👌
Those songs are so underrated!!!
Matt Corby reminds me of Jeff Buckley.
Matt has his own record label called rvrlabel. Rainbow Valley Records . YT channel RVR . Has a launch party coming up in Brisbane tickets are on sale now .
Funky new intro
I know right lol
Ooh! Enjoying the new opening credits. Nice!
Thank you :)
Maybe do a double reaction next time live and studio? We got time 😊
Matt Corby just does everything a little bit different xx
My fav of his is all fired up, the live recording. Have a listen if you haven't already :)

Ohh your boy 👦
Still can’t believe you’ve not Reacted to his performance of All Fired Up
Try Resolution by Matt Corby!!
th-cam.com/video/osJqU2NHhA8/w-d-xo.html
This is Matt’s Australian Idol audition at the age of 16.
Just shows how far he’s come since then!
He’s really honed his craft.
Can you do matt corby resolution...
I do believe he was on Australian idol, but I don't think he enjoyed it. He has said in interviews that they tried to stop him from being himself and tried to make home be a pop singer
Another fantastic singer is Gavin DeGraw. You should hear his rendition of A Change is Gonna Come. I actually like it slightly better than Matt’s.
Hey man love your gas😊e... can you just take a look at nick cave vs kylie minougue murder ballads
Love to see you react to Matt Corby ~ All fired up - live from rainbow valley, it’s another Matt Corby classic th-cam.com/video/v6VAvSLMBSg/w-d-xo.html
Murder ballads not epic but amazing
Seriously! He’s ridiculous

wow - can you phrase that a little more politely?
