When most people hear someone with incredible talent sing but who theyâve never seen before, they naturally envision an attractive man or woman. But when it comes to music, there are no boundaries. Take Susan Boyle as a prime example. When appearing on Americaâs Got Talent, the audience watched a dowdy woman take the stage. Then when she opened her mouth, her voice was pure angelic.
Donât judge a book by its cover
Something similar happened when a man performed his rendition of âI Canât Make You Love Me.â His voice was so rich and pure that when the song circulated the internet, people were shocked by his appearance. But itâs when people see what he looks like that theyâre the most shocked.
He has an amazingly unique voice
Jaten Dimsdale, who goes by Teddy Swims, has such a remarkable voice that his YouTube channel now has almost 900,000 subscribers. When he performed Bonnie Raittâs âI Canât Make You Love Me,â the internet went wild. There he was, a rough and tough burly guy, complete with a beard and tattoos. Not at all what youâd expect.
Teddyâs raspy yet smooth voice is mesmerizing
In this particular performance, you first hear the soft sound of a piano playing. Then, you hear a sultry voice thatâs immediately captivating. Heâs so good, you want to stop what youâre doing just to listen to him sing. There are few artists that have that effect on people.
He sends chills down your spine
When you think about vocalists, Teddy isnât the kind of person that would come to mind. Heâs a rarity. With every word of the song, you can hear his emotion. You know the saying that some people wear their hearts on their sleeves. Well, Teddy sings from his heart with pure emotion.
He takes a different approach to music
For Teddy, itâs about making a connection to people. He firmly believes that every person should be viewed as an individual. But especially in the music industry, thatâs not usually the case. As he puts it, âThere are no categories, no stereotypes. Until we see every person as an individual, we will never reach unity.â
Teddy puts his heart and soul into every song
Regardless of the song he performs, itâs as though people have never heard it before. When he sang âI Canât Make You Love Me,â you can hear his outstanding vocal range. Considering his size, he might expect a bass or baritone. Instead, he nails notes from high to low effortlessly.
But with the raspy effect of his voice added in, he takes songs to an entirely new level. Although Teddy hasnât yet hit the mainstream, with his degree of talent, it wonât take long. After watching the video, youâll see for yourself why this manâs making a name in the music industry.
