Most of the homeless look like normal people they look like him. They are just people that have had bad luck. Many homeless shelters provide showers and clean clothes. The clothes are donated by people, for instance just last week my dad donated a lot of his clothes and he has a habit of buying designer brands like versache and armani thus there will be homeless people wearing those brands. It doesn't matter this man might not have the voice you hear on the radio, he is quite talented and has a unique rustic voice for not being autotuned, like all the stuff you're used to hearing. But what I enjoy the most is not his voice or playing, but the passion behind it that he has.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604725174011351908.post-53873400792952840402010-12-07T18:17:09.953-08:002010-12-07T18:17:09.953-08:00Stop being so naive, everybody.

I think the only reason everybody's so excited is because of the contrast with his hairy homeless exterior.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604725174011351908.post-68638075606582572232010-09-29T20:37:24.840-07:002010-09-29T20:37:24.840-07:00i saw this video about a year ago. a couple monthe...i saw this video about a year ago. a couple monthes later i was in washington square park playing guitar, i happen to be jamming with a random man and mid-way realized that it was this guy! he then played the song for me and told the whole story!richieEnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604725174011351908.post-22430685348777156332010-09-24T11:59:09.121-07:002010-09-24T11:59:09.121-07:00Wow he has a awesome voice, Unique roughness topp...Wow he has a awesome voice, Unique roughness topped over a calming serenade!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604725174011351908.post-13126726430719269892010-09-09T06:33:55.008-07:002010-09-09T06:33:55.008-07:00Love it, this song is one of my favorites and he d...Love it, this song is one of my favorites and he did such a beautiful job covering it.

Now, let's clarify a few points 1. He is NOT wearing a fancy watch. There are several hand made bracelets on the right wrist and multiple hospital ID bracelets on the left. 2. Homelessness does NOT necessarily equate with being filthy. Many homeless people strive to find decent accommodations at night and prefer to find places where they can wash themselves and their clothing, typically wearing one outfit while any other air dries. Also, his clothes do not fit that well if you look closely. He has at least three layers on, all of which are comprised of thick materials. 3. The guitar was loaned to him by the studio when they found that he actually could play and sing. He was originally brought in to record a gag segment for the show as part of an advertisement. 4. Talent is talent. One need not write a piece to breathe new life into it out of their own experiences and gifts. In fact, the studio and show's web sites have footage of three songs which this gentleman wrote, played, and sang himself which are all equally as endearing as this rendition of Creep. 5.

That must be the reason why nearly everyone that has seen this video likes it? Really? That might make sense if you failed to get past your own pre-conceived notions, or if you were fairly conceited. However, most of the comments, god or bad, are pretty genuine. To make that assumption really only makes your view appear a bit narrower and fails to give people credit for having the same brain power that you do.

In addition, TV shows have this thing called wardrobe and makeup. If they had put him on television looking "homeless", everyone would have been talkin bad sayin that they were inhumane. Besides, they had him work for them before. And most people buy things and make themselves better looking when they get money. It takes common sense to figure this out. Please use it.
