I can't agree with that. the beginning was a little dull and slow but once he got into it "I was impressed" good voice good tone and decent drum beat too.
Surprised it came through that well on a cell phone. I would have stopped to listen and enjoyed it.
what kind of music is that? where can I find more like it?
seems silly to spend $60 getting to NYC (the bridge alone is something like $20 right?) to maybe here this guy sing and toss a few bills in his bucket.
Here is what I do know. our homelessness problem is OUR FAULT 100%. when I read that we have 3.5 mil homeless and 18.5mil vacant homes. well its pretty clear were the fault lies in my book.
Outside of NYC i would prob agree with you. In NYC however, I have seen "homeless" ppl begging for change while texting on their iPhones, not joke! Apparently some of the good ones are pulling in 60k cash (tax free!)
the problem is as soon as they take a "legit" job they make NOTHING. a legit working person making less than $40k a year (that is 50% of the US population mind you) pays around or over 50% of their total earnings in taxation.
$60k is not so much money when you have to basically "eat out" for every meal. gets really expensive really fast.
start using a bank and eventually the government will find a way to "take" your money.
how would one of these guys pay taxes? if the filled out a 1040 the gov would audit them and claim they need to pay even more in taxes because they are "self employed" etc..
"what kind of music is that? where can I find more like it?"
The title says the song is by "Adele"; she's pretty popular so that should be easy to find with a search (I don't listen to her music so I don't know if the song is representative of her music).
If you mean "dude singing and banging on a drum"...well, I'm not sure where you find that. :-)

I'm guilty of doing the same thing when I video performers I find downtown.

its because its a PHONE. the "natural" way to hold a phone is vertically. so that is how people "shoot" with them typically.
this issue is magnified by the fact that old phones DID shoot proper landscape while held "vertically" (think 100% of video flip phones)
SO people keep holding them that way out of habit.

in other equally useless news - hobo makes loud noises too by banging on a garbage pan with a frozen cat.

And yet the music industry turns down talent like this for younger and more photogenic people who can barely carry a tune.
