Video summary

Press to jump

0:20Eric Manuel introduces his work as an embalmer and funeral director before singing Lady Gaga.
4:07Valerie Boyle explains her ambition and trades a joke with Howie Mandel.
9:47The judges call Brianna's unsuspecting mother and invite her to their table.
11:15Brianna performs "You Are The Reason" with her mother watching nearby.
16:29Matthew Cooper performs an operatic piece.

Brianna Monterosso's mother is working at the venue's casino, unaware her daughter is about to sing. The judges call Jeannie on FaceTime, then invite her to their table for a rather different view of the stage.

Brianna's performance of "You Are The Reason" is one of the family moments in "A Bus Driver, A Grandma… Then THESE Voices Came Out?!", the most watched of Canada's Got Talent's five uploads this week, with roughly 41,000 views. The compilation gathers auditions from several seasons rather than presenting a new round of the competition.

Eric Manuel, an embalmer and funeral director visiting from Florida, opens with Lady Gaga's "I'll Never Love Again." Valerie Boyle brings "Send In the Clowns" and a quick comeback for Howie Mandel: "In fact, I have underwear older than you, Howie." Later entries include Carsim Birmingham, Jonathan Pooley and Shea, whose 2022 audition closes the collection. Viewers are discussing Carsim's golden-buzzer reaction and whether Eric's opening performance deserved the same recognition.

Family surprises carry into Frank Moyo's separate upload. He pretends to leave his seat, then appears onstage with a guitar and an original song for his Nonna. Elsewhere, Gordon Neill turns a dog cone and cupcake into physical comedy, while GBA and Xtreme Pogo supply the acrobatics.

The channel's subscriber count was unchanged over the week, though daily viewing is a little above its usual level. Paola Troilo's sons-arranged audition remains its busiest video, now past a million views. That older family surprise is drawing more daily views than either of this week's singing uploads.

What viewers say

Man, Carson is such a humble and gracious singer with a huge grateful heart and a beautiful voice. His reaction to the golden buzzer brought me to tears. I wish him the very best.

If Carson is next level and got the Golden Buzzer, then, what about Eric Manuel the first singer in this video ????
