Danyl Johnson Audition Video Goes Viral.
Could the 27-year-old teacher Danyl Johnson be the next Susan Boyle-like YouTube sensation?
Danyl Johnson Video performing the Beatles’ “With a Little Help From My Friend” on the British talent show “The X Factor” has gone viral. On Monday, the official clip on YouTube had registered about 600,000 views since the weekend. Twenty-four hours later, the count had doubled to almost 1.2 million.
After the audition, Judge Simon Cowell said, “That was single-handedly the best first audition I have ever heard.” Johnson quickly shot to frontrunner status, raising questions about whether he’d become the next incarnation of Scottish chanteuse Susan Boyle, albeit one in cargo shorts who prefers classic rock to “Les Misérables.”
The Daily Mail landed an interview with Johnson’s estranged father, who said he had not spoken with his son for a year after a falling-out. “I was so proud when I saw Danyl on the television,” he told the paper. “I did shed a tear as he was singing.”

Certainly he has a powerful voice and his performance is really really impressive, but would all these be overreactive? I mean does he really sing that damn good!
Another question, the show missed him twice? How?
i am a singer and i can really tell if the person can really sing or not. judging by the tone of his voice, i can say he is really good.
observe his low notes; the first part of the song before he sang the adlibs. it is clean and precise. no fluctations of the voice can be heard. well talking bout adlibs/”yells”, for a singer with no musicality it is really hard to make one. but for him it was really pretty amazing; the notes of his yell’s do fit the notes of the music.
well, in totallity he is really good. good voice, nicely interpreted, nice performance. however, we can’t really generalize that he is “IT”. auditions are still ongoing, and i believe there are still people out there who can outperform him.
anyways, thumbs up to you danyl.
