On America’s Got Talent 2016, 20-year-old Sal Valentinetti made shockwaves among both the judges and the audience when he waltzed on stage full of bravado and delivered a knockout performance that earned him a Golden Buzzer. But it was not just his natural talent for singing that earned him the love and respect of the crowd, but his larger-than-life personality and charisma that made him immediately likable.

“I’m gonna entertain you like you’ve never been entertained before” are words that could either make or break an audition. But that’s exactly what Sal Valentinetti declared to Howie Mandel before breaking out into a perfect baritone voice that sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the room. Watch his mesmerizing and charismatic performance of Frank Sinatra’s classic song, “My Way”, in the video below:

In his words, “My beautiful mother is in here tonight somewhere… my mother is everything to me”. He declared that he was not just at America’s Got Talent to perform, but to win! With his family behind him and an arsenal of confidence, he put on a performance that showed his confidence was not just vanity; he has an incredible voice that fills a room with ease.

“My Way” is just one of Frank Sinatra’s immovable classics that made him one of the biggest entertainers of the mid-20th Century, and one of the best-selling music artists of all time. Accumulating over 150 million record sales over the course of his career, he created a vast array of songs that would continue to be replayed over and over for years to come, including the unmistakable “That’s Life”, which shows us all the good things that life has to offer even amidst disappointment.
