ABOUT 'GOT TALENT'
Got Talent is a British talent show TV format developed by Simon Cowell's SYCOtv company and owned by Fremantle Media Ltd. It has spawned spin-offs in over 70 countries, in what is now referred to as the 'Got Talent' format, similar to that described by Fremantle of the 'Idol' and 'The X Factor' singing show competition formats. Unlike those shows, Got Talent showcases a wide variety of artistic disciplines in addition to singing.
'Got Talent' was named the world's most successful reality TV format ever by Guinness World Records. Cowell stated, “I am very proud that Got Talent is a home grown British show. We owe its success to a group of very talented producers all over the world who have made this happen. And of course amazing talent.”
ABOUT TOP 10 TALENT
Top 10 Talent is a UKposts channel that selects and showcases the best performances from Got Talent, Idol, and X Factor shows around the world from America's Got Talent, Britain's Got Talent, Pilipinas Got Talent, India's Got Talent, Canada's Got Talent, Ukraine's Got Talent and so many more...

If he re-releases this song as an acoustic, he may very well break some sales/streaming records. Also, can we note that despite the emotion... he played the guitar absolutely flawlessly. Second nature. And for those who thought he was a sympathy pick... listen to this entire reel. He didn't miss a note, a string, or a moment. This is as good a talent on this show since La'Portia. Also, my opinion is that he out-sung the artist on his own song. 🤷🏾♂

Oliver Steele said in a recent interview that he pegged Iam to win back during Hollywood Week, before he knew anything about Iam’s dad Rodney other than Rodney was the one who got him into music. Oliver said what he saw about Iam that set him apart from everyone else was how he could hear Iam’s love of people, music, and culture in every song he sang. And it was identifiable from the first note.

@crystalbluewaters Місяць тому
Solo or in duets/groups, there is no mistaking Iams voice & you can pick it out instantly yet its so versatile that it blends so easily with others as well. That is prodigy-esque musicianship & pure unfiltered talent. His voice is like his soul, the calm in the storm & sun breaking apart the clouds, yet when he lets loose it hits like a ton of bricks straight to the heart. Humble, kind, compassionate. His song choices were like a roadmap to his soul as each held special meaning to him & his family. Have never felt a connection like this to other contestants & have watched many music shows, as i have with Iam. Wishing him all the best on his journey. His parents raised a beautiful son major respect to rodney & lillie, and rodney was a wonderful teacher too giving his son the tools to build his own path.

Ive lost my father about 12 years now. I can talk about it, look at photos, all without a problem, not a single tear drop, not because i didnt love my father, but because i fully understand the "circle", or at least i thought i understood... Until i saw this guy sing the 1st song for the audition... (As a portuguese, i dont see American Idol, so i randomly on my daily journey on youtube end in here) and i was not able to hold the tears... i did not cry for this matter, for years... Music as this power, i dont no...

I lost my mother at 18, and I know it's not the same but just months after she passed my dad was diagnosed with Parkinson's, so although he is still with me 1 year after my mom passed I know I'm ultimately going to watch him fade away from me, and it just tears me apart.

This season steps up from every other season since day one. Never cried so much, never enjoyed so much, this season has awaken in me feelings never thought I had. katie, Luke and Lionel are also standing up front of any other judges. I really lift my hat and bow to this edition, we needed this after the past 3 years of suffering , and the downfall of our political nonsense, where we need to fight for our democracy. God Bless You All.

It's so awesome to have watched these when they aired, and have watched where he took this Win and where he will go from here. He has BIG things in store for him! Keep playing beautiful music Iam!

It was great to see how as he progressed through he opened up. Loved to see him smiling when the fly landed on his head. I also loved when he sang the song before that and he came in and said “how’s everyone doing tonight?” He’s already got the performer in him it’s great such a beautiful singer.

I lost my father at 18 years old, too. My father was my poetry teacher and hero. The hurt when someone like that leaves your world suddenly is absolutely devastating. It’s sometimes only through the arts that we can get through the grief and survive. Iam’s love for his father without a doubt shines through his voice and art.
@justicemabuza4062 26 днів тому
Im sorry but i have never crying when my father passed, but this song made me cry the way i want when i first had the news, and 😢i always wanted to make my father proud coz we was so close and i was his favourite son no wonder why i was so closed to him ❤❤❤.

He has a beautiful soul and it shines thru his voice and perfect songs. I rarely cry, but these performances were so heartfelt - I cried joyfully for him sharing his powerful voice.
