Brian Justin Crum - CREEP (Radiohead cover) The full version of Brian Justin Crums' cover of CREEP which he recently sang on season 11 of Americas Got Talent. Film by: Arno Diem Engineered by: Ikuma Matsuda
Well actually the judges loved him and still do. It's the people that didn't give him what he deserved They voted for the young girl..she is good too but never like him.
Fleurette st martin he definitely shoulda won but he's gonna be just fine! i wouldn't be surprised if someone snatched him up already and offered him a contract! that's how it always was on American Idol ... you don't have to be the "winner" to get a recording contract and this guy is pure talent ... we'll be seeing a lot more of him!
It seems like the best singers that everybody like tend to get second place in these shows. If I was a record dealer, I'd probably start with second place.
I was really angry that he didn’t win.. I was shocked just like Mel and I think that the jury were hoping for him to win and were disappointed with the results. You can see it in their eyes once they tell his name..
As a veteran, I have suffered from PTSD from my time in Iraq for over a decade & what I did. Today was my day to die. Today was when I was to kill myself & end this pain that I feel but.......hearing this, I feel that I have more to do, I always thought that I don't belong here anymore but the way you sang & carried this song makes me feel that maybe, just maybe I do belong here after all. Thank you. Thank you for the song. Thank you for my life.
Damien Cross, you brought me to tears. Hold on to sweet life. When life gets too much, please, PLEASE reach out. There is a world of wonder out there. If you find yourself with nobody to listen, I will be here. I promise.
@@michaeltutty1540 Thank you for your kind words. I fight these demons every day but now I don't let them win. I may not be where I want to be but someday I will get there. If anyone says that music can't help, they are lying. I have given my weapons to a good friend to hold on to until I am in a better place. Just 1 breath at a time, 1 heartbeat at a time, 1 day at a time.
@@DamienCross66 I really meant it when I said I am here. I have Facebook Messenger, What's App, Hangouts, and I forget what else on my phone. I am always able to be reached, one way or another. Take care. Don't let the demons win. Music is most definitely the best way to defang the demons that surround us.
if this comment is really true .. just know that there are people who you can reach out to, friends, family.. and kind strangers on the internet too. i have PTSD and depression among other things, if you need someone to talk to who has gone through similar things, feel free to respond back. i've survived an attempt before and while life is still hard, it is still worth living. take care of yourself, life is precious and there is still goodness in you
@@mercuri. I stand by my statement. It took a lot not to end my life & this song helped me to realize that there may be more left for me to do. I don't feel 100% & I know I never will but maybe, maybe I can help others like me. I still dread getting up & seeing a new day but not as much as before. I set goals for myself every day & that helps some. I just felt useless & hopeless but although I may still feel these things at times, it has gotten better. Thank you for reaching out to me & thank you for having such a huge heart. I started counseling last week. I still can't bring myself to talk about what happened & what I saw in Iraq but I hope that one day I can get that weight off my shoulders.
One of my really close friends died tonight from cancer. Creep by Radiohead was one of her favorite songs. She said that if she died before me, she would want me to sing it at her funeral. I really don’t know if I could do it. I wish she were alive at least one more minute so I could tell her how much I loved her. I love you, Alexandria.
So, so, sorry. I just lost a loved one last month. The constant missing is too much sometimes. Obviously I cannot know what you must be feeling, but i give you my empathy and hope that her warmth and love will embrace you always. Big hug.
So few people have done this song justice. So few people are capable of capturing the emotion that the lyrics possess. But you, my friend, have not only done it justice but you've turned it into a masterpiece.
I do agree with you. I know that song since it came out and none could give to it what Tom had done for it. for the first time I understand the fragility of the lyrics... beautifully done when the voice breaks.
At 3:01, if you listen closely you can hear what sounds like an old computer monitor flickering. I'm pretty it's coming from his voice as tiny artifacts resonating in that mix range. It's the only perceptible sign I can see that Brian is still human in this cover - well, other than the tear at the end 😢
@@nathanbennett8386 Thanks for not making me feel obsesive! I´ve heard this flickering the first time and thought it was a little break but no! It is a noise from the mic or audio console.
I was rooting for him too, but after grace vanderwaal golden buzzer the hype train for her was too big for any other competitors. It’s only because she was built up as a young Taylor Swift. Brian was definitely the best singer during the competition.
His rendition of Creep is unparalleled, breathtaking. There is nothing like it in my opinion. I prefer it over all others I have heard. The raw emotion and the power in his voice when his voice swells with the music is so moving. The contrast between that and his control when he reaches the lows, with the volume taken down, is powerful. He is just mesmerizing.
You once said something like "I like to sing in a way that makes people feel things." Then the judges commented on how you turn your songs into a performance. I love to sing the same way, to make the song into a multi act performance. I'd love to hear how you did songs like "My Immortal", "Jar of Hearts" and "You Raise Me Up". Each one is set up to be sung in your style!
You can convert the videos on RU-vid to audio from 3rd party websites. This is one I have been using for about 7-8 years. listentoyoutube.online/v9/ Let me know in case it doesn't work so that I can share a few other websites with you guys. Cheers!
OH MY GOD, this actually made me cry and I felt it deep in my soul. The way his voice makes it sound like an angel getting kicked out of heaven just hits the heart in a very soft spot. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
My dad showed me your live version of this song and I just think you have such an amazing voice. You really are an inspiration especially with your story. You have moved a lot of people
I’m just a tad bit late, but I’m not even kidding when I say this is the most emotion and vulnerability I’ve ever seen in an artist singing a song. Not to mention you have unbelievable vocals. When I first heard you sing this I was actually speechless (especially at the bridge) first song that actually made me tear up
This is the best version of this song I've ever heard. Gives me goosebumps every time. I listen to it over and over. Thank you for your beautiful voice.
Can’t possibly understand how ANYONE can put a thumbs down on this version. What a talent, what a voice, what a god. Best version ever. So incredibly emotional!!
What is WRONG with the people who disliked this???? There's no accounting for taste. The talent, the emotion and the power in his voice is absolutely phenominal. Even if you don't like the song or the tempo of it, you have to appreciate the talent and the execution. Amazing.
the dislikes are probably due to autotune. His other performance of this was genuine and sounded great, but this version has been tampered with and sounds like shit.
Nothing to 'hate'. Not everyone has to agree with you. Just didn't like it. Great voice but not my cup of tea, same as the judges, esp as I love the original, but while I'm open to good covers, this wasn't it, no build up, just the same boring monotonous beat. Maybe raise your standards. I'm as comfortable with classical and arias to hard rock and house on a Sunday morning sipping my coffee.
I finally got what I wanted!!! Yes, Yes, YES!!! Even is he loses AGT, he's already won. I'm sure, he's going to have a following, no matter what he does with the show. If a record company doesn't sign this guy up before the show is out, they are total fools! I have never, ever, heard a voice this good, ever. And I've been around a long, long time. Brian, it's not just your song, its the feelings in your eyes. You open your soul and share your emotions with all of us, and that's special. I will buy your music, as soon as it's available in iTunes.
I love Calum!!!!... I remember when his sister Jade came out first, they ate her alive, both songs. When he came out, so nervous, I just new it wasn't going to be good; but then he opened his mouth, and I was floored! Great singer, great voice, no doubt!!!
My friend you are probably one of the 5 most special people I've ever encountered in my long extraordinary life. The other four I knew personally. It is my misfortune that during my time in LA I did not meet you and that we will most likely never meet. Thank you for sharing your most out of this world talent, heart and spirit. I wish you would perform here in Europe. Are there CD singles and/or album with all the songs you sang on AGT plus others? Your voice tears at my heart and your smile brings light into the darkness. Your story is mine only in an even more brutal era. I had not the support of my mother as she was very much my adversary. If you ever read this thank your mother for me for loving you. Cheers from across the pond.
Awwww that is so sweet ♥️ Brain has a beautiful voice and sings with such passion Ther is no one that can sing this like he can I listen to it 4 to 5 or maybe more in a day it seems to feed my soul of something missing if that makes any sense at all! ♥️
Doesn't matter how many times I listen to this, I still get goosebumps. Such a powerful, beautiful voice, it gets to me every time. Such a talented young man, truly amazing ❤
If you don't get goosebumps from the 2:30 minute mark, you've don't have a heart ... my favourite ever version of this song, hopefully Brian will tour the UK soon
oh I totally agree to be quite honest I was so shocked he didn't his performances have been absolutely perfect since his audition. his voice is absolutely amazing and powerful.
G. T. Void he is not young to take that risk.She was young and everyone appreciated her music and the lyrics becuz of that. ...She had great advantage of being a girl too...
I listen to this song often and am mad I can’t get it on Apple Music. The story he tells with this voice is amazing. By far one of my favorite performances.
I’ve listened to the AGT performance so many times and I still get the chills. I then saw this full version of the song and watched it about 10 times I love your voice Brian.
I have had several suicide attempts and struggle with self harm and depression. I also suffer from anxiety and social anxiety. I felt the emotion in this song. you have a beautiful voice. you have talent. never give up.
I completely agree with you. He's also using some kind of voice filter in this video which I don't like. Around 2:40 you can hear it. I prefer his rawness and imperfections. His live performance was 100% real.
I listen to his AGT version every weekend! I have it saved to my Saturday playlist. I'm going to add this version also! The man has a phenomenal voice. He was so robbed on AGT!
This song allows me to cry. You bring it out of me no matter how many times I watch you. You are a great talent. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing it with us.
As a singer myself, I couldn't imagine singing this song without getting severely emotional. I can relate to every word he's saying being that I deal with several mental illnesses, and I get labeled by society as a weirdo or creep. This seriously hits home for me. :,(
your cover seriously makes me want to cry. best radiohead cover to date. and I doubt it can be beat. I can feel your emotion and it's painfully beautiful.
Well... Radiohead is a band, not a song so this coment is really dumb if you consider all Radiohead songs and covers. Most of people only know Creep... (Sorry if my english is bad).
I think this is the best cover version of Creep.. Amazing voice! THANKS BRIAN ! IM GAY, I HEARD ABOUT YOUR STORY (U R MY INSPIRATION) and BECAUSE OF YOU I WANT TO COME OUT AND I WILL DO IT! PEACE LOVE AND FREEDOM IN THE WHOLE WORLD GUYS!! :) LOVE, AN ARGENTINIAN GUY
This is the most amazing and beautiful rendition of this song. Every time I listen to it, it breaks my heart and I can't help but cry tears. Such a beautiful voice and a very special man to bring such emotion to a song. A true artist!
Hmm...Not so fond of the piano--wish it were an octave lower... But still a good cover. Personally, I like the AGT performance better, but still good...
I agree. The Agt performance was a lot better. It was more real and raw and without any voice filters unlike this video. He still has an amazing voice filters or not but I prefer his raw natural voice
anthony staudle Yes, and there was more emotion in that performance. Here, it feels like he is holding back. And it feels like he's sung this song in this way a million times, making it seem way too rehearsed and overly-perfected...
Exacly! And on one note just feeling the auto tune kicking in...i don't know why because he doesn't need the auto tune! The live version was waaaay better! At one point i felt like i heard Adam Lamber insted of Brian...and similar smart performences!
Painful. Deep. This was the way this song was intended to be performed. BrianJustinCrum you ARE special. Special beyond words. Thank you for making me feel alive. You are out of this world.
I felt every single word you sang in your audition for America's got talent. I was frozen and unable to move, you have incredible talent for singing with feeling. God bless you
You are my inspiration. Back in 2016, I was taking lessons for singing. I loved singing, but it didn’t yet click. I was watching America’s Got Talent 2016. You were getting ready to perform. I never expected anything like this. You put so much emotion into the song, and it made it the most memorable performance I ever saw. I still remember you to this day for that. You have inspired me beyond anyone, to sing from my heart, and pull out what makes me sorrowful. So I’m practicing a song for a recital. This song. And though I love it, I’m nervous I may not be ready to sing it. But this is what I’ve wanted to do since 2016, and I have a passion for it because of what you did on that stage back, in 2016.
Brian, if you had auditioned for The Voice, you would have absolutely destroyed the entire season. Hands down, favorite vocal artist of the last 5 years. Every performance was not just a cover. Every performance was an artistic recreation of a piece of a music with an individual artist's unique stamp. Honestly, one of my top 5 favorite male vocalists of all time.
I have watched your AGT "Creep" many times and each time is like the first. Yes, your control is masterful. Your timing is genius. Your voice is unique and beautiful. BUT the intensity of your emotions. Your way of meaning every word you sing. Your ability to take everyone listening to the invisible plane you had entered. That's why the applause took longer than usual to begin. EVERYONE had to "return" from the dimension that you took them to. It also happened to Abraham Lincoln. I once read that after every speech, the applause was hesitant. But then would become a deafening roar. Your gift is more than phenomenal vocal beauty. Your gift is taking people to a place of momentary suspension and giving them relief, from what may be any number of slings and arrows they are enduring at that time. Know this to be true. And...I personally thank you for it.
dude...i am cryer by nature, you had me bawling by the second line. i truly think you're going to be more than just a massive recording artist, you will be (and are) a truly positive addition to the human race. good luck man. you rock.
First time I heard this I was just mesmerized by the haunting voice. In subsequent listenings I was able to also listen to the lyrics. What a great song. And the voice and emotion it exudes pairs perfectly with the message. Thank you. It really touched me and resonates with me having always been an outsider.
Dude! Every time I listen to this cover, I get chills all over my body. Your voice brings me to tears, it’s such an indescribable experience! I love it
He recorded this almost five years ago, his rendition is so beautiful, his ability to bring anything he sings to life, to make you feel something is wonderful. I AM A FAN FOR LIFE. I too agree that he was robbed of his AGT title.
My husband, Bryan, and I took notice of Brian when he first auditioned for AGT. Then he was on AGT CHSMPIONS! LOVE THIS GUY!! His voice is truly the voice of an Angel and it was given to him to bring us Joy, Happiness, Love and Compassion. THANK YOU, BRIAN! YOU TRULY HAVE NO CONCEPT OF THE POWER OF YOUR VOICE. I LOVE THAT. Keep up the beautiful work.
Boy just discovered him. I never watch America Got Talent but when I saw him perform this on the replay, it was just beyond sensational the way he belted it out. OUTSTANDING!! Wish I had millions I'd sign him on a record deal in a heartbeat.
At 64 years of age I can honestly say that I have never heard anyone with a better voice than yours. The AGT audition was spellbinding. I listen to and watch it several times a week. It was raw, believable and undeniably one of the best vocal performances ever. I am a straight male so there is no bias involved in my judgement of your talent. I am a displaced San Diego native who was pleasantly caught by surprise when viewing your audition. I can only imagine what it must be like to be able to sing like you do. Thank you. Best wishes for your continued successes in life.
Me being Dutch, just found you with this version.. Man! No matter how many times I listen to it, you give me goosbumbs and get me into tears.... The song might be 30 yrs old, but this...... 🙌🏻 Thank you!❤🍀
The live performance hit you more. He has an amazing voice either way but the other performance was way better. He's also got some kind of voice filter in this video. I would say it just cleans up his voice a little but I prefer the imperfections
Greatest cover song EVER! I never felt a thing when Radiohead sang it. But when Brian sings this song... I feel everything. Thank you Brian... your singing of this song is life changing and beyond brilliant!❤❤❤
Brian..I watched when you performed this on TV and left the crowd silent! I wish you all the best life has to offer. You touched me with your performance of this song, and “you’re so very special”! 😘❤️
I remember hearing him do this the first time on AGT. I've never felt every note to a song. Hes so incredibly emotive. 8 remember the silence from the judges and crowd still taking in what he had just done. And crying. It was like I lived the song for those minutes.
