This kid knows himself. Totally unconcerned with praise, probably equally unconcerned with insults. He turned red at not knowing James Taylor. The color in his face was the only tell at emotion or reaction. Kid is the definition of STOIC. I love to see it cause we need more of it.
“You’re like walking melatonin.” Wow. I actually think his level of chill is a big part of his charm. It’s kinda cool and refreshing when someone breaks from the norm and is pleasantly content but not all hyped up.
So funny at the end when they say he's going to Hollywood, and he doesn't get excited, doesn't comment, and sheepishly walks away! I laughed at Katy's expression.
@@kcaustin904 it’s not like they spoke directly too you, like y even say “I didn’t ask,” as if everyone has to speak with your permission smh, makes them easier to avoid and ignore smh (i dunno y ppl act like religious bots give a shit lol, they’re in their own “special” world and it’s so annoying to see ppl bash the religion or get pressed at the commenter/bot).
He didnt have the confidence, that he needed, but he wanted it, look at his sudden facial expression changes when he gets complimented. He definitely a heartbreak tone and story telling voice. I hope he is still singing today and has gotten the confidence he needed. ❤ He is really good.
I do love this kid. Please don’t knock him for being chill. Isn’t that what we all are striving for?? Just to be at peace with who you are is an amazing accomplishment!! Good for you my dude!!!💜
This kid is a star…. Shy, unassuming, laid so far back… that he did not even react to the amazing opportunity… Once he comes out of his shell, I predict he will be a super star!
the judges on American idol can piss off his personality is fucking insane I love it and he 100 percent has passion, he's like a new breed of people being themselves and not putting on an act for views
Aron Westberry, you have it all. You held your composure will. I love your laid back approach. Don't give it all leave enough to keep them wanting more. This is how you do an audition. You are top ten if not top 2.
It’s hard to find a unique voice nowadays, with all singers sounding pretty much the same, but this guys voice is just… hit me to the core of my heart. It’s so full of memories, feelings and atmosphere and he’s like a storyteller with just his voice. What a Gem 👀
He is far from shy, it's the persona he chose to charm others. Mischievous is more like it. I feel he is the lazy type, he won't put on the efforts and forget the words during Hollywood week, and the judges will be mad at him.
@@pureffm Yeah, the problem with that is in the music business you need to tour and be outgoing. I remember a contestant a few years ago named Sam Woolf, not sure if spelled right. They kept telling him, more passion, more energy etc. Jennifer Lopez told him you need to go from small star to big star. His charm will help him though.
Sometimes the soft spoken really have a gift and trying to get them excited doesn't fit your expectations but in the end they teach you to be more humble. Great voice and definitely deserves a chance .😎👍
He demonstrates the difference between focus and emotivism. The judges drip with emotivism which gets old with it's superlatives. The young man is focussed on the song and the message of the lyrics. He lets the essence of the message generate response rather than his showmanship. Go kid go.
Katy would appreciate him if she saw humility in him because she was once humbled by challenges she went through after being elated by fleeting fame and love.
Being around him for a day would be more helpful, relaxing and healing for you than most psychotherapies and/or vacations! This guy is so genuine and talented, I love it ...
He's so cute he kind of reminds me of Princess Diana -. If her kid was American. That's a compliment because she was beautiful always has been always will be his voice is amazing I hope he goes far.
What a good looking kid with a talent and I think he didn't give his all shot yet. I'm excited to see more of him singing , improving and confidently loving what he is doing .
Hope he not discouraged and is working by himself on originals and/or with a writer because he has the voice to tell stories and transmit emotional lyrics!
This really inspires me. I have a very nice voice too but limited vocal range and am very happy to see someone who did not reach crazy octaves get through.
Love this young man. ❤ So humble and so honest and so polite. ❤ I loved his audition. ❤ He's probably a dark horse in terms of the competition, but he's my favorite for sure. ❤ Subtle, not showy performance. ❤ I think that the judges described him perfectly. ❤ Loved when he said, "My bad. YES!" 🤣 Luke: "You're like walking melatonin." 🤣🤣🤣 The fact that he was compared to James Taylor and he doesn't even know who James Taylor is! 😳🤯 🤣🤣🤣
@@ginakinney1964 he made it through Hollywood week but not the showcase round - Katy said too shy to him after that performance. I like his style and that voice. He has a you tube channel - check it out - some really great made his own covers of songs!
He has a lot of swag(coolness) in him it it actually looks like he doesn't even know that he has a lot of talent well done... Great Voice could listen to his Singing voice all day long... lots of luck mate cheers 🥂🍾
It's so nice to see someone not act like a fool when they hear "you going to Hollywood". He's sexy and have a good voice. Not everyone wants money & to be famous. Good for him. The judges should be ashame of themselves for looking down on his job working at a grocery store. The pandemic has shown us jobs like his are essential. They should be thanking him not looking down on him.
Is it possible that in this day and age that there is actually this much innocence left in the World ? Quick.... someone find out where he is from, and bottle that water ! That, or this kid is gonna be one Hell of an Actor ! 👍😎
I don’t think it’s shyness, I feel that he’s been through something recently maybe a heartbreak. I can just feel it just by his eye contact towards the judges, he’s fidgeting a bit, can’t really stand still, his hands in his pockets, his tone when he talks, the way he sang that song and his reaction at the end when they told him he’s going to Hollywood. He’s not afraid whether he makes it or not. He really needs a hug. My boy been through something painful because that’s the way I and most men behave when battling something. We just don’t say anything and keep quiet. Keep your head up King! Im rooting for you!
This was the most gangster audition I’ve ever seen. Not sure if they were more stunned by his performance or how little he cared for their Approval. Got the 3 ✅ and ✌🏻out. Probably went and dropped a deuce right after like a boss!
I LOVE that Aaron is not blinded or jaded by the celebrity factor. I haven't watched his progress, but truly hope that the judges don't boot him for the competition because his reactions did not meet their expectations!
the power of presence and being in the now, grounded by his own unassuming gravity unable to be pulled into someone else's orbit. so serene, yet its probably been a while since the judges met someone with so much true power of the soul
This kid knows himself. Totally unconcerned with praise, probably equally unconcerned with insults. He turned red at not knowing James Taylor. The color in his face was the only tell at emotion or reaction. Kid is the definition of STOIC. I love to see it cause we need more of it.
Cool as a cucumber and I'm loving it.
..and dumb.
My dog is very stoic.
I agree with you, he is calm as a cucumber. He is so calm and collective.
@@AndrewGalli Yea but can it sing?
i love how his speaking voice is so deep but when he sings it is in a different range. He has so much potential and he can play the piano
So, like pretty much all singers?
Good point. I noticed that too that he sang tenor and spoke bass.
@@farkyooboob8935 No. Actually not like all singers...thus the observation.
@@tim9430 Pretty much all professional singers have a much bigger range than their speaking voice.
Piano talent for sure 👌 ✨️
“You’re like walking melatonin.” Wow. I actually think his level of chill is a big part of his charm. It’s kinda cool and refreshing when someone breaks from the norm and is pleasantly content but not all hyped up.
agreed
Yes!! He is a deep thinker I'd bet and given a chance he will be a superstar! His voice was yes melting hearts!!
agree.
interesting character
4:18
Yeah I know a guy like him he’s so cute lol
Honestly i think his unconcerned and laid back mood is what makes him so special and lovable
Exactly ☺️
And looks
the way he walked away saying “ Thank You Very Much” 😂
Adorable.
He’s got the expression of the late Princess Diana. He also has a captivating tone and good looks
I thought same way 😀
Yes ! Exactly what I thought.
I had that exact impression. Nice kid - hope he goes far . . .
.
Not like she is dead ...
Witness protection
So funny at the end when they say he's going to Hollywood, and he doesn't get excited, doesn't comment, and sheepishly walks away! I laughed at Katy's expression.
He knows the ways of show business and not to get his hopes up
He did comment, He said (Thank you Very much) and walked away, lol
Died laughing! Lol 😂
@@onebadbarron04
With his hands in his pockets! 😅
Hell yea representing sc
This kids is a huge diamond in the ruff. Wow, with a little polish he’s going places. Love his voice
Unfortunately these shows only ever create short term hype. Most artists fall off once the hype dies down
A little polish is always good, dzięki!

@@AneXineohp I do enjoy bashing religion, yes
He didnt have the confidence, that he needed, but he wanted it, look at his sudden facial expression changes when he gets complimented. He definitely a heartbreak tone and story telling voice. I hope he is still singing today and has gotten the confidence he needed. ❤ He is really good.
He's got time to develop. Singers/artists dont hit their peak until 30+
This is the same guy on instagram teaching us how to watch more reels 😭
His voice reminds me of the lead vocalist from The Fray. Doesn't need a massive range but knows how to tell a story. He's definitely got a future.
Very good comparison, his songs don't really have range.
Great comparison. His lyrical abilities make his songs so much better than having a wide vocal range.
Nailed it
Meh. He shouldn't quit his day job 😂
ace enders
Just loved this kid. Such an unusual performance but so captivating.
😂
@@reginaaaq Sorry, did I say something funny? Not sure what point you're trying to make.
Adorable, humble and very talented! Will steal many girls’ hearts.
Why do ppl always say that 🤔
Why can't it be kill it with talent
And not all about trying to sway thousands of "girls "
That put pressure on ppl
@@woke1497 American “Idol”.
I’m truly looking forward to seeing how far Aaron Westbury goes.
I can't wait for him to cover Ricky Nelson's "Garden Party".
He's so endearing ❤️
That voice ❤ is it me that 4:06 I saw a bit of young Princess Diana in that look - raw look
Haha, yes I can see that 😅
Why wasnt he watching reels during this
THE KID IS PERFECT JUST THE WAY HE IS... DON'T LET THOSE HOLLYWOOD IDIOTS DESTROY HIM
Those Hollywood idiots can make him a star and change his life for the better. It ain't all bad.
@@jlpack62 being a star isn't always good nor is it always better.
These comments make me think of the song “The Lucky One” by TS
🙏🙏🙏 praying that Hollywood nor anyone else destroys him.
@@viyannalangager4039 But that's why he's there. They didn't drag him kicking and screaming to the audition. He chose to go there.
I do love this kid. Please don’t knock him for being chill. Isn’t that what we all are striving for?? Just to be at peace with who you are is an amazing accomplishment!! Good for you my dude!!!💜

Agreed!
@@dlehmann8353 p
He doesn’t need to come out of his shell to be a star.
unbelievably down to earth
@@alexf9447 yer right… He is a ⭐️ However, I said a “super star”
He’s not limited… he has tons of potential.. ..❤️
I love his humility and respect.
This kid is one of a kind, love his voice
What a wonderful person, incredible smile...terrific voice and a smile to brighten any room..I wish him well
Hello, greetings from Canada 🇨🇦. How are you doing today?
The shyness he has makes him more adorable. I think they got a winner!👍🏻
Hello, greetings from Canada 🇨🇦. How are you doing today?
I don’t think it’s shyness. He’s just super chill.
He’s not shy. Just a mellow kid. Seems very introspective and confident. His girlfriend probably doesn’t understand him LOLOL
Niga he ain't shy at all
This kid is one of a kind, love his voice. Adorable, humble and very talented! Will steal many girls’ hearts..

Uhh that could also be called boring
At least he’s not being fake
Have you ever heard of punctuation? Jeez.
True af
For vapid viewers may be@@aaronwesley286
Fantastic voice. It’s good that he’s laid back. He won’t have a lot of stress in life. Just takin’ it slow and easy. That’s great!😀👍🏽🙌🏽
at 2:20 you can see a lump on his neck. i hope he got it checked out by now!!!
@@Broshank420 looks more like his artery?
They said he didn’t have a lot of range, but given his speaking voice, I think he has a lot he could dig into underneath the song he auditioned with.
Same. I think a Sam Smith or a James Blake song would've been way better. Something tells me he suits songs that are deep/slow and alto friendly.
Kid sang flat, didn't have range, and no control. Not everyone can be a singer even if they want to be.
Handsome young man! And cool and very relaxed, which to me indicates confidence in himself and abilities.. Good pianist, too.
Agree handsome polite..very good at piano too..... LOVE him
He is so cute
He has unusal talent love him
I couldn’t finish the vid I started watching reels
what a beautiful voice, I wonder if watches Instagram reels???

@@joseerana2032 no, he has a RUclips channel. He has ADHD.
Lmfao hes so calm it's scary to them
if he can't make it as as a singer, boy, he will make it as a model. This is some raw, untouched beauty.
Are they deaf? The passion was all over his performance. Gave me goosebumps. Love that he’s so laid back.
Simply, the best and most moved I felt by a contestant so far. I just replay it as soon as it ends.
I dont need more vocals or more passion.... looooove this voice just the way it is... I could listen to him sing all day long!!!
From this to reels. What a glow up
#1 reel watcher!
😂what a character! Absolutely incredible tone too. He is what he is. No changes needed.
Sometimes the soft spoken really have a gift and trying to get them excited doesn't fit your expectations but in the end they teach you to be more humble. Great voice and definitely deserves a chance .😎👍
This guy is fabulous. I hope he goes far!
Can someone upload this to reels? Just to improve UI, make watching efficient, highe r quality, etc
his performance would be easier to watch if family guy was under it
I loved how he was humming Beethoven's 5th piano concerto in the supermarket.

Can't wait to see him ....how far he is going to go in America Idol this year..... So relaxing to see his style.
I always wait to find those unique special voices and he has it! Loved every moment of it

He has a great tone. The girls are going to push him all the way through. Such a cutie and that smile...
Pervert
…and boys🙌🏼
This young man is going far in the music business. Total confidence in himself .
no he isnt
He's not just handsome his freaking talented....perfect!!!!!
bro hadn't started his Reels streak yet.
Wow. His singing voice is so smooth, it’s crazy. What a cool guy :)
His layed back reaction is so funny in the end lol I think he’s a silent killer and he will bring it to the competition if he makes it all the way lol
He's so cute he kind of reminds me of Princess Diana -. If her kid was American. That's a compliment because she was beautiful always has been always will be his voice is amazing I hope he goes far.
Princess Diana reincarnated!
Hahaha.,yeah ! "
Yes! The way he blushed when he didn't know who James Taylor was, had big Diana feels.
That is who he reminds me of.
My thoughts exactly 🇬🇧🇺🇸
I absolutely love him!!!! I hope he foes far in this competition. 😊
What a good looking kid with a talent and I think he didn't give his all shot yet. I'm excited to see more of him singing , improving and confidently loving what he is doing .
"Walkin' Melatonin" Perfect T-shirt 👕🎉
He left the stage
and SCREAMED YES! YES! YES.
as quietly as possible!
TOO SHY AND HUMBLE TO DO IT IN PUBLIC.
Aaron was my favorite! I’m frustrated they didn’t show his performances.
Aaron! More RUclips videos please! Love your voice.
.I googled and found almost nothing.
I wonder how many people have gone to his veggi isle to buy salad greens from him.
Hope he not discouraged and is working by himself on originals and/or with a writer because he has the voice to tell stories and transmit emotional lyrics!

just love how casual and nonchalant he is. love him

Such sweet kid. Wish him all the best in this life!
Love a singer who sounds like a real person.
You mean reel person
The way Aron exits is priceless lol 🤣
It's so nice to see someone not act like a fool when they hear "you going to Hollywood". He's sexy and have a good voice. Not everyone wants money & to be famous. Good for him.

I've never seen a more perfect example of cool confidence. He's just like "Ok cool, I'll see y'all there."
Doesn't his face remind you of princess diana's? That shy and humble look?
The judges :1,2,3 you're going to Hollywood!!!!!
Him walks to the tickets:thank you very much🙄.
🤣🤣😂😂.
Wow this young man will be break many girls heart he is so good looking..and the voice melted heart.
He I just so comfortable with himself.They do not understand that.
I just loved this kid! He had a great voice, the silent acheiver!
How did bro make it through the performance without any reels

Honey that Greenville SC is something...I know a lot of folks and have have there...
It's all over the South darlin ....but we have to preserve it

I don’t think it’s shyness, I feel that he’s been through something recently maybe a heartbreak.
