Fun fact is: i'm italian, there's no italian who acts and looks like this. They are more like italians from the '50s, mostly stereotypes. Still great singer and i love him
@@pregno1421 what does that have to do with anything I said. The OP said theyre leaning into the fact that theyre italian, but no thats just how they are in NY. His exact mannerisms and the way he speaks is probably not hammed up, if it is not by much.
Who's here in 2024 ? Still one of my favourite songs and audition. He's as good as the original song. ❤ Can't believe no one made a reality TV show of the family !
HELLO! I HOPE YOU CAN CHECK MY VIDEO OUT AND GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ds9XdCgRIrU.html THANKS IN ADVANCE AND BLESSINGS TO YOU!
I'm sure Tommy's cousin Angelica doesn't love it, though. She's probably jealous, even though she shouldn't be, because she's attached to her Cynthia doll.
I’d say it was more of a Tony Bennett reference, since his version WAS better, & therefore, the song’s more synonymous w him. But yeah, we do agree that it WAS a reference.
@@razeenrajaful Bruh, Sinatra did not write “The way you look tonight,” it was written by Jerome Kern. & that wasn’t even my point. Tony Bennett’s version, i.e. the slow version, is the one that is the most SYNONYMOUS with the song, and also the one that most people have heard. Sinatra’s version has more of a jolly spin, which, while has its own charm, is kinda off-putting, given the vibe of the lyrics. Hence, people usually associate the song with Tony Bennett’s version. It’s just that many people don’t KNOW that the slow version is by Bennett, they assume that both versions were sung by Sinatra, & in fact, many don’t even know of the existence of the “jolly” upbeat version. Bennett’s version was used in Friends, but most people thought that was Sinatra.
This comment 💯 I randomly came back to this video after AGT came up in my recommendations and I DISTINCTLY remember Sal and V. Incredible and then I remembered he lost and got mad all over again 😂😂😂 ok she has a dog and somebody has cancer. Whatever. THIS GUY THO was amazing. I remember his finale performance and actually voting for him. He was amazing.
This is the greatest performance in the history of agt. Not only is Sal insanely talented, but the charisma on that man is crazy. He truly is one of a kind
He deserved it, in my opinion. Even though he came in 5th, he still has a career ahead of him. He does have that ability to imitate Frank or Dean's "old school charm", and his vocals are on point and his ability to carry a note and bring emotion through what he sings is just as impressive.
cainster in my home town (Huntington Long Island) he had a show booked after americas got talent and demand was so high to see him perform live. that they had to schedule another four extra shows!!!!
It's guys like this who come far but don't win that get the careers. It's the winners that get a shitty one hit/album deal, get dropped, and end up nowhere.
Honestly it was probably the stage prescence. They've never had someone on with this much stage prescence and ability to move the room without a sob story.
Man I just love seeing people so happy and families like his so supportive and lovable, he's such a nice guy and funny btw, I hope he's doing great and really live his life at the maximum, such a wonderful performance
It's a rare thing to be able to go out there as a complete stranger to the crowd and have them love you and become a fan that fast. He has real talent.
-italian family -delivers pizza -Big tommy looks like he’s a part of the Mafia -eats pizza in introduction -Intro song is Mambo Italiano from Dean Martin You can’t get more Italian *American* than this Edit: yeah i guess it's more Italian American
Got an Italian accent, got that cousin who looks like he's the head of the Mafia, he delivers pizza and he sounds exactly like Frank Sinatra when he sings. I wanna marry this dude no homo though
Six years later, this is still one of my all-time favorite auditions. That golden voice and the HUGE personality, with so much charm... it was impossible to not adore Sal :)
@@PepperSprayed-bc5deNo lol. He’s released music which is on Apple Music. He’s doing just fine, no need to hate on him because you’re unhappy with yourself.
My ears are fine , i suggest you do the same. Very mediocre, the type of voice you expect in a karaoke bar. Good voice nonetheless but mediocre. Cheers.
Stephen Reaves I'm tired of people like you just demeaning people's beliefs just because they don't match yours, I myself am not Christian and don't believe in heaven but at least I respect others beliefs no matter how illogical they seem to me, you my friend just wasted 5 seconds of your life to type something out of spite to achieve what? Satisfaction in others opposition and pain from your opinion... the definition of evil.
This guy is a born entertainer......he seems like he has been doing this for a lifetime...so comfortable on stage..and that smooth voice....Sinatra reincarnated...pretty amazing
You are correct. He was there to entertain and entertain he did. His confidence in himself is amazing. He took charge of the stage like a boss. I want his album.
Oh my god why no one mentionned that ? -I love THE WAY you talk -she loves THE WAY i talk -and i love THE WAY you sing too -She loves THE WAY i sing ! -i do !! -I love THE WAY you look tonight,how you doin ? Ultimate badassery and flirting holy jesus
I had totally forgotten about this guy from years ago.......absoutely LOVE him!!!! And his family as well. Not sure where he is now......but hope and pray he is well and still singing on some stage!!!!! Prob my favorite audition through the years.
I love it Remembered when I first saw it Was in the I loved as a kid and still is So he didn't win, Oh Wow But that okay because I read the comments how he is doing 👍
I come back to this clip a couple times a year because it's so amazing. Boy comes in and is just dropping rizz from beginning to end. Some people come out nervous, my man Sal came out and immediately hit on Heidi. Guy has the perfect amount of confidence without being cocky and enough charisma to be just an absolute joy to watch perform. King of kings.
he sounded exactly like Frank SInatra and he was so awesome in everything he did, he was fun when he came out and started talking, he was acting as if the show was his and his singing was so good he deserved to take the whole show
Alex Suxiashvili i opened this video and he started to talk that kind of voice made me smile so much and then he sang and i couldnt believe how good he was
Just met this man at a Birthday party, let me tell you his voice is perfect. But his personality is even better, he's the nicest guy in the world. Thanks for the memories Sal, we loved hearing you sing tonight.
Omg I was breathless with Heidi’s decision 😮😮😮 he deserved that🎉 bc he sang my favorite song of all time.I listened to it in my car, shower, gardening basically everywhere and when I do listen, makes me do things I have never had either chance, or courage to to do my way
Hands down one of the best auditions in the history of all singing competition shows. Arguably. He’s even got the blue eyes like “old blue eyes” Frank Sinatra.
He auditioned for American Idol. Thats where I first saw him. Season 14 or 15. It was cute. I don't watch AI except the auditions, so I don't know how far he went. After the audition on his way out, they played the theme to the godfather.
