The winner of America’s Got Talent is Kevin Skinner!

Congratulations Kevin!

David Hasselhoff summed it all up when he said this about Kevin Skinner after his first performance on America’s Got Talent:

“When you sing there’s no reason to move your lips unlesss you tell a story. Everybody was moved because he was singing and telling a story and you can tell it was coming from his heart and it touched everybody .. and that’s what entertainment’s about.”

The runners up were:

The Voices of Glory  5
The Texas Tenors  4
Recycled Percussion 3
Barbara Padilla 2

Kevin Skinner sings Arrowsmith’s I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing. I’m a big fan of Kevin, but I don’t think this is his type of music.

Kevin tried to show another side, but it was actually off key, quite a bit.  I don’t think he can hear the music. I think he needs to wear an ear monitor so he can hear himself and the music.

I still love Kevin overall. He is pure and sings from the heart.

Piers gives Kevin a standing ovation. He tells him he is not the best singer, but he is unique because he has heart. He said that he is a great American story and would like to see him win the million dollars.

Kevin Skinner on America's Got Talent Semi Finals

Kevin Skinner competed in last night’s Semi Finals of America’s Got Talent, dedicating Willie Nelson’s version of Always on My Mind to his father.

Kevin Skinner is the type of story Americas loves. A natural born singer, a chicken catcher, who finds himself in front of millions singing from the heart with a chance to win $1M dollars and to headline Las Vegas.

Every song Kevin sings is heartfelt and emotional, completely raw and sung from the soul.

After Kevin’s performance, Piers Morgan gave Kevin a standing ovation.

Piers said. “You have an ability to move an audience in a way I have never seen on this show before. You sing from your heart, your soul, with real raw emotion and it is impossible to remember sometimes that you’re a chicken farmer from Kentucky who’s never sung on this kind of stage. Let me tell you after that, you are my favorite to win this whole competition!”

Is Kevin Skinner Americas Got Talent’s equivalent to Britains Got Talent’s Susan Boyle?

Kevin was the last audition when he walked out on stage, dressed plainly with jeans, and a baseball cap worn backwards. At first glance you think this is going to be a disaster and then he started to sing.

Can Kevin Skinner win America’s Got Talent this year?

So far if he continues with emotional perfomances like this, he will have a decent shot. I have not seen all the talent yet to come, but I’m sold on Kevin Skinner. This is one of the most emotional and heartfelt performances I’ve ever heard.

See if you agree.
