'I swear I'm not a professional singer'

I met Greg while asking people to sing in the 14th street/8th avenue subway in NYC. At first I was taking a quick snack break while my team member changed the batteries. Then, I'm told that a gentleman in a blue shirt wants to sing. So I quickly finish my snack and pick up the guitar. We pick a song, and Greg puts on the most energetic performance I have seen in a while!

Greg resides in Silverthorne, CO (near Denver) and was just visiting NYC.

As a musician, I'm all about creating musical experiences that have people feeling happy and free, and that's why the "Sing With Me" series exists. Since 2018, I have asked thousands of random people to sing with me on camera. A lot of people have said no, some have said no initially but changed their minds to yes, and some have said yes right away. I ask these people to sing with one purpose: to create a way for them to experience a sense of happiness and freedom they did not feel before. And much of the time, this actually works (and that makes ME happy).

I can't thank you all enough for the kind and encouraging comments. I am truly grateful for the outpouring of support ya'll have given me. Special Thanks to Emerald M. for encouraging me and convincing me to sing with Reggie. Such a positive experience and community he has curated. I'm proud to be a part of it.

When my man started loosening that top shirt button I said oh'shit something fixing to go down! YOU

[andrewellington]

Dude had some balls to completely belt it out without hesitation and I'm glad he did.

[JenniMcClosky]

This is still the best cover of this song - I still come back to it repeatedly.

[Enoskjp]

this dude look like the type of man that gave up on his dream to be a rockstar, so he would have a regular job and build a family, but deep inside he knows that THIS is what he should be doing all this time. Such an amazing performance, he sung every word and every note as if it meant a lot to him.

That guy owned his version of creep. He put a little of opera, grisp, cool, smooth, power and sweetness in specific areas of the song with great control and natural vocal position. Really great performance!

[LizaLavolta]

He knew the chords. Homie stays ready... He is also completely emotionally committed to the song which is the secret sauce

[morganpowell]

Back 8 months later to watch again.

My man, you are special!!!!

[matheusandr]

Dude has been waiting this moment his whole life.

Went there and did what needed to do. Stunning.

[thesadsalamander]

Greg poured his whole heart into this song and I am HERE for it!!!

[OlepSatry]

He was just passing by, a normal looking guy, when suddenly for a few minutes he changed into a beast, and then came back to normal and disappeared. As a human, I find the whole scene beautiful

[Noah-goxc]

This guys ability to hit flats and sharps is scary. Most people don't realize that a lot of singers have really easy compositions. This guy has incredible talent and has done A LOT of singing practice to get to this level. You're a fucking beast Greg.

[judithpleiman]

This dude has no idea how many people he's touched. Amazing!

[larrygilling]

Greg is a awesome person! He has been a close friend since grade school, sang at our wedding and teaches our kids to ski. He isn’t a professional singer, instead he worked at apple in his past. Proud of you buddy!

[kellyperry]

Props to anyone who can hit that note like that. Kudos man

[jmathew]

Ever since I saw this pop up on my Facebook a while back ive come to watch it again. Multiple times. It makes me cry with how much power and meaning he portrays while singing. Wow man! That is some serious POWER! Thank you for sharing!🎉

[Vicarium]

5:18 Dude unbuttons his top shirt button, loosens his tie and just fucking goes for it...unbelievably powerful.

[doramegyesi]

The most professional unprofessional I' ve ever heard, with so much power and so much emotion.
Wow!

[vitalis]

As the song progressed, he started remembering his rebellious years and let it all go. He was waiting for this day.

[myleswalker]

I go back and listen to this version once every few months, you’ve got soul Greg. Live your dreams buddy
