9-Year-Old Journeyy Sings Original Song, "Paradise" | Auditions | AGT 2024

Bro gives off the energy like this isn’t his first time on this planet

This was absolutely a golden buzzer performance

9살임에도 불구하고 어떻게 이런 가사가 나올 수 있지..작곡은 말할 것도 없고 능력이 엄청 나서 눈물날 지경

The fact this kid put this song together at his age is wild. I don't think people understand how hard it is to compose something like this.

This child is very skilled at the piano and vocals, he never missed a note

Hes a natural he's so relaxed

“There’s water but you cannot drown” he literally speaking truth we live between the waters above and the waters below .. paradise (heaven) goes above the firmament

Lyrics "Paradise" by Journeyy Am i dreaming or not Am I in some alternate world somebody bought All I see is purple clouds, theres water but you cannot drown, feels like I'm thinking out loud And the mirrors are broke How can i see with all this purple smoke And the music soft and calm now that im here it feels wrong Hope that you enjoy this song You roll the dice, now youre on thin ice Hear the bugs dont bite automatic lullibies purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my paradise Theres an aurora outisde, I feel it in the air everynight Birds that dont fly, People who can never die, Rain drops when you cry Why am I here, I feel a slight emotion of fear I'm fearful yes indeed, thats pretty much all the things I've seen Paradise, Paradise, Paradise, Paradise You roll the dice now now youre on thin ice Oh here the bugs dont bite automatic lullibies purple clouds in the sky Welcome to my Paradise. Excellent Lyricism. So proud of him, he's going to do great things, never look back kid!

9 years damn old..... Give this boy a medal or golden buzzer

Kid is ahead of his time. To be 9yrs old and have written a song with deep meaning is next level.👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

You can feel his soul is old and his eyes show that. Hes a special kid and he’s going places.

This child reminds me so much of my oldest child, Mykal. My child was self taught on multiple instruments, wrote thousands of lyrics and composed hundreds of songs. First competition he ever entered, was his high school show when he was in ninth grade. He sang one of his original songs while he played piano. It brought the house down. He not only won the competition. He won the admiration of other students, staff and teachers. I remember his English teacher saying that he had no idea that my child had all that inside. Just last week is the one year anniversary of losing my child of suicide at the age of 22. I will never be able to adequately explain that feels. Just make sure that you look at your child every time they walk in the door or even in the room, put your phone down and give them your undivided attention every time they wanna show you something or speak to you. I'm so grateful for the type of parent I was. I think if I would've had him 10 years earlier, I would've screwed it all up. Remember the child hardest to parent is the one that's no longer there. Doesn't matter how many other children you have they don't replace what you've lost. Hug your child for 20 seconds at least a few times a week. Every day that you love them. Learn their love language and speak it to them. I wish nothing but this child, journey, the greatest life that can be had. And I look forward to hearing more.❤

the look on the judges faces says it all. this kid is gold.

Is no one going to comment on the complexity of this talented young man’s songwriting skills? Just outstanding! Bravo! Excited to follow his musical journey!

I am blown away! That song was incredible! Think how many people can write music and lyrics? Then think how many of those people are 9-years-old?! Wow! That’s talent!

how the hell is this the lyrics of a 9 year old. i felt the words so close to me as a 34 year old and i can't possibly imagine what he went through to come up with such lyrics. it's amazing. i hope we hear of this kid through out the years.

Give him his contract . Such an adorable kid! ✨

His ability to hear and create Melodies, the sophisticated lyric writing, the piano skills, and his incredible voice tell me he will 100% be a star selling out stadiums! At 9 years old, he's been than so many today. I would listen to his album. He just seems so humble and kind! His IQ is definitely very high!

He's amazing .....that song is radio worthy!!! The words touch you and you feel it in your soul..... He's 9 and has so much talent ...the song sounds like a very experienced writer wrote it .... His talent is just too tier

This deserves a Golden Buzzer
