Wow! Kenton Chen hit those notes perfectly! Love how everyone is having fun.

They look like they are having so much fun! Love it!

God I love watching all sorts of different talented people come together with so much passion.

Kenton is simply amazing...really love his voice. Hooked on him esp when he sang CLOSER...and he's got the swag too👏👏👏👏

Oh,I just loved this singer! Makes my soul happy.

The sass is off the charts. Kenton gives me the chills.

Where do I even begin. I just watched this once and trust me I will watch this alot alot alot of times. This guy has some bad ass soul pouring through his veins. I am so glad I found you all and will for sure look at the other videos.

Geez, how did i even get on here, oh that autoplay, cause I now will have to listen to at least one song..hmmm, what song what singer. Oh, no, I chose a new song, great to see them again, okay, ciao and enjoy!! ☮💖

the pure joy of the girl who is backing (the one with white shirt) when they hit the note is amazing!!! all of you guys are amazing!!! please, keep doing it!!!

I’m obsessed with that guys voice! I could listen to him all day

Just WOW!! I'm playing this over and over again!!

Your videos have just started being passed around by my musician friends up in Toronto - we are a bunch of old farts (60's and 70's) who grew up on this music. Can't tell you how delighted we all are that you are keeping this music alive (and adding your own personal touch to it). Great job! Such a pleasure for us :)

I’m in love with his voice 😍😍😍

One of my fav all time songs, and you guys knocked it out of the park. Incredible. Thanks!

Unbelievable!!! The best cover I have ever seen in my life. Him & Stan Taylor are the best singers in the world to me. Such style & diversity. Thank you for not being afraid to be yourself and giving me one of the happiest finds ion the internet ever!!!

I absolutely love how he sings!!!

I love Kenton and all his adorable moves, a new find and I can’t wait to research his music 😘😘😘

HOW DID I MISS THIS UNTIL NOW? I FREAKIN LOVE THIS.

it such a joy listening to him. this uplifts my mood when i’m down.

This is most wonderful. I guess Kenton Chen is captivating because he was not merely performing. He is expressing joy within that is genuine, honest and from the heart.

I love it. Thats crazy wow..i didnt want it to end..so soullllfulll

He just makes me feel so bloody Happy!... Thankyou! ✌️💋💜

Impossible to know which part of this machine is the best! I think the piano player has experienced more joy in 2:59 than I have in decades-long stretches, the singer’s vocal, the harmonies of the back up singers (this song requires perfection from these three - and gets it in spades), the hat-on-backwards drummer with hair so cool it might slow global warming or the rhythm section clued into the back up singers. This is extraordinary talent putting on a clinic in how to love what you do. Thank you for this video.

Kenton Chen is absolutely amazing

Oh my gosh! The lead singer has amazing voice!! He's great 😳💖

Just goes to show that you should never judge a book by its cover. Dude can SANG!!!

Absolutely delightful!!

Thank the universe for this collective.

Listening to Kenton Chens voice is like riding on a magical river made of rainbows made of honey made of sparkles, through a forest of happy trees all the way to a reverse waterfall that flows up to the heavens.

LOVE KENTON!! 💕...such heartfelt expression, from the 1st note to the last! Great range Kenton....more Kenton puleeez 😉👍🏾

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! THAT WAS SMOKIN!!!! Wonderful WONDERFUL Job Y'all! Oooo SO GOOD!
