Just how many amazing talents have we seen on stage in the prestigious reality TV talent show ‘America’s Got Talent’?
People of all ages and from all walks of life have showcased different kinds of talents. From singing, dancing, magic shows, acrobats and stunts, beatboxing, mind-guessing, animal shows, and many more.
This boy from Louisville, Kentucky, was only 11 years old (now 12) when he braved the scary stage of the prestigious reality TV talent show. Believing in his dreams and his talent, D’Corey proved everyone even a pre-teen like him could conquer even the biggest stages such as the AGT’s.
This young man is a dreamer; during his quick interview with the judges, he said he wants to become a singer and be on Broadway and even in movies.
When he was asked by judge Sofia Vergara, “So do you think you can win?” D’Corey confidently responded by saying, “I feel that I can win it.”
With the tone of his voice, there’s no doubt he’s really there not just to be a part of the show but to conquer it.
Don’t you think so too? Just look at this young gentleman in his gray suit coat and shiny green bowtie.
And what else is there to bring in an audition other than your A-Game?
D’Corey sure knew what song to choose because he’s chosen “Open Arms” by the American rock band ‘Journey’.
The second the song started playing, D’Corey quickly impressed everyone when he nailed a soothing vibrato as an intro.
Based on his audition piece alone, I’d say D’Corey’s voice was deep and a little mature for his age. The quality of his voice makes him unique from other singers of his age. His vibrato runs were also smooth and well-executed, it almost looked like he was exerting no effort at all.
“Backing tracks enable singers and bands to add parts to their music which would be impractical or impossible to perform live, such as string section or choir parts which were recorded in the studio. A backing track can be used by a one-person band (e.g., a singer-guitarist) to add any amount of bass, drums, and keyboards to their live shows without the cost of hiring extra musicians. A small pop group or rock band (e.g., a power trio) can use backing tracks to add a string section, horn section, drumming or backing vocals to their live shows,” Wikipedia says.
Surprisingly, D’Corey granted Simon’s request without any hesitations at all, not even a bit one.
His acapella version was even better, don’t you think so too? Removing the backing track only showed the true quality of D’Corey’s voice.
