Man this kid is amazing. I'm normally not a supporter of child stars of any kind (I had rough childhood because of the film biz) but this kid, man...just brilliant. He writes his own stuff, his voice is amazing, he can play the piano...
Props. I just hope he remains viral...(and off the TV) Don't want Disney turning him into another Justin Bieber.

I'm like you, except a little more of an asshoole. I do not like child stars. Just doesn't seem right to me.

Oh I agree entirely about child stars. I grew up doing commercials...but the second I was no longer valuable (when my two front teeth grew back and my freckles started to fade), I was thrown away like a dirty rag. Its a really nasty business when talented children come into the picture because they're a rarity. But this kid has legit talent, something that will hopefully carry over once he's older. My only worry is that Hollywood gets to him before then.
Lol and no, I'm not about to post the commercials I was in. "Watch your language" they were embarrassing. I will say that they were for Frosted Flakes, McDonalds, and Hasbro though. and when I was 10 I was in a "Your Changing Body" edu-movie...hahaha. Some of you have probably seen it? Teacher probably showed it to you in 5th grade science

It almost always does, and then he will become "one of them". Happens all the time. :\

SPL, I might have seen that video forgive my laughter knowing one person from that sort of video!
I dislike him... probably because of my taste in music.

And the search has begun. First person to find one of Durkee's commercials gets bragging privileges for the rest of their life, and if they find the sex ed vid, you get bragging privileges and a reprieve from my sarcasm for a month.

i hate this kid, first of all he started off singing lady gaga so already he has bad taste but don't get me wrong he is a great singer just a weird start and lady gaga the reason why i don't like her is that she is the most extraordinary person in the world lol

The only times the words lady gaga and extraordinary are in a sentence the word isn't has to be in the middle

I disagree...while her music may not be of-taste to some of us (including myself), but shes extraordinary in the way she performs. She gives listeners exactly what they want and looks "Watch your language" good doing it. She forcuses on the performance a little more than the mucis...so in that respect shes not an "ordinary" artist, which would make her extra-ordinary.

My cousin is the one who at the end who helps the lady with her bag. ans says thank you to the captain. Before you go all PMS'ey on me he spent 2 tours with the 101st (SSG) and is a BAMF.
I think he's good, but he just doesnt exactly appeal my genre of music.....
So, i probably wont be listing to hi unless he does somthing along the lines of metal
PS: sorry that some of my posts have been lacking in quality lately, im in a bad mood and need to vent. ( I know, that really isn't the best place to do it either...time for some COD!)

err....fixed.
At least he doesn't sound like a girl. I can't stand Bieber...he makes me want to punch someone.
But, if he remains viral he might get picked up by a decent talent agency or record company and become really good. Help me Don't use the Lord's name in vain. if he turn into another justin bieber im will go insane.

Bieber. Must. Die.

He just got signed by Ellen Degeneres and they're producing an album. Should be interesting, I'd buy it.
