He made Reggie Watts cry.

September 15, 2016

Mike Yung has been busking around New York City for over two decades, ever since a CBS Records deal fell through in 1980. Over two and a half decades later, a video of Yung singing "Unchained Melody" by The Righteous Brothers really, really well went viral on Twitter, and he was asked to perform the song last night on The Late Late Show With James Corden. After the performance, Corden is more giddy than usual and bandleader Reggie Watts is in tears; watch above to see why.

Since his burst of internet fame, Yung has announced that a stream of his "Unchained Melody" cover is on the way, along with his album that's "gonna get me out the subways."
