[SafiyaOniTV]

[james96]

[iHeartLaDiva]

@james96 can you give the link? thanks :)

[akopocmichael]

unbelievable vocal for a very young girl. matured na matured na yung pagkanta nya.

[junjorxful]

Yung sa line sa Chorus na may superbirit na ang mode: "come what may" yung sa "may" part "flat" ng kunti sya dun. Tapos yung pinakamataas "it all" the way.....di sya tumataginting, kuha pa rin yung na part na yun peru di masyado challenging gaya kay Sheryn Regis, Regine and Rachel Ann Go.

[xxnastyjunivelxx]

@junjorxful nagcomment ka pa kung puro ka naman comparison.

[bu331hay]

@junjorxful david foster, ikaw ba yan?bwahahaha kung makapagcritic akala mo expert tanggalin mo yung kulangot sa tenga mo...deaf-tone

[junjorxful]

She's incomparable...her vocal strength is so unbelivable but not too high as compare to the ASIA SONGBIRD - MRS. REGINE VELASQUEZ ALCASID.

[james96]

@junjorxful So IRONIC "She's incomparable" Pero kinopare parin xDDD

[acrolithe]

basta filipino magaling.. yun lang.....

[onebbekill]

AMAZING! O,O

[marlonkano]

You silly english song in the Philippines usually hear on the radio so no wonder that mimic the songs of famous artists in America and the Philippines was a colony of American English second language

[Nultimedia]

The audience are deaf.

[mikomiko08]

1:23 Through The Fire Climax..Yet She Done It Perfectly With Curls of Her Voice..( some lines are like justin bieber's voice,or she imitate it? ) ,,,Shes so Supercalifragilisticexpialidoc­ious!

[mari3la]

through the fire : produced by david foster

[JasperKenneth06]

better than the original. tsss. 

[gainguide]

@JasperKenneth06

you're full of it, teh!

[JshrBs01]

Damn...she can sing anything!

[jonahbooc]

grabe!

[JasperKenneth06]

whoa!

[briobrandon911]

"Right down through the fire" part was so awesome that she had hit a quick jab for G5 chest voice. wow is there any note that this girl cant hit!!!

[rice80rice]

Is this the same Asian girl that performed "Through the Fire" on the show "Showtime at the Apollo" a couple of years ago? The performance was done by a 16 year old, I thought....Regardless, the girl on that show was AMAZING! She came out shy and timid, then she sang....HUGE voice...the place exploded, it was awesome!

[rendition888]

this is even better than the chipmunky voice of the original one who sang this. one of the best versions ever to think that this was even done live and in low quality recorder

[junjorxful]

MAY....NA FLAT SYA AT, TAKE IT ALL SA HIGHEST NOTE KULANG NG KUNTI...ANG KAPAL NG BOSES, TINGNAN MO SA HULI NAGSHIFT ANG VOCALS KASI MALAKI TALAGA ANG BOSES ORIGINALLY PAGBIRIT NYA ITRY NYANG TUMATAGINTING PERU HALATA ANG SHIFTING!!

[benadrian21]

@junjorxful whatever you say. SIKAT NA SYA! so joyride ka na lng sa karir nya sa US. ok?

[taemozzzzz69]

i love charice:)

[EDDIEGUTANG]

The following are a few of the songs wherein Charice blasted away the original rendition thus destroying the said original and thus practically making a new song out of the old and therefore making it - her own: Note To God, Listen, Adagio Italian version, One Moment In Time, Power of a Dream, What Kind of Fool Am I, and the US National Anthem. Please note that all the songs in her current album are her's. And thus Charice can no longer be accused of merely mimicking artists from the USA.

[selujlyrad04]

@EDDIEGUTANG Well, making a song your own is not necessarily a good thing. For example, she turned One Moment of Time into a birit-fest; Charice has a very powerful voice with an extensive range, and she can sing, but she doesn't know when to keep it down.

Anyway, she killed the high notes here. Kudos to her. Through The Fire is not an easy song to sing. Not by a long shot.

[EDDIEGUTANG]

To those who dislike Asian singers for singing only US songs & mimicing US singers, know that that is d only way to get started in d music industry when U have no songs of Ur own. D influence of US music on Philippine society is pervasive. Why? In d Philippines English is d 2nd language & it was once a colony of d USA from 1898 to 1946. Finally much of the best music now comes from d USA. But happily dat's changing becoz Charice is slowly blasting d originals away w/ her more powerful versions.

[ERIC052778]

@EDDIEGUTANG WELL SAID! WELL SAID :) :)

[kitty003ify]

[smileganda19]

I soooo love this song but after hearing charice sing it, I loved it more.

[DonLouiVer]

[powellheart]

good job charice :))

[kino061229]

nilalaro lng nya, kayang kaya!! ang lupet!

[mrsaraholic]

go sarah! go toni! go charice!

[aquamarine11500]

All these Asian singers get on my nerves,they r always mimicking black and american soul singers.damn!

[sadfountains]

@aquamarine11500 and it's a compliment to black singers that they're being copied.

[anastroph]

@aquamarine11500 they say that copying is the noblest way of appreciation... so take it as a compliment whoever you are aquamarine...

[EDDIEGUTANG]

@aquamarine11500 Wow man, U mean that Asian cover singers sing the songs of great black American soul singers in Swahili or Chinese? Through The Fire by Chaka Khan in d Ilocano dialect. U got to be kidding! Even Chaka Khan will get mad @ U for murdering her song. There are times when certain words & expressions cannot be translated into another language. Through the Fire is best sang in English as Chaka did. Otherwise the umph is not there. Unless U r god but thats a an argument for another day.

[sexyfoxx86]

@EDDIEGUTANG If you've never heard it, how would you know?

[starbuck246]

@aquamarine11500 who gives a rat's ass what ethnicity people or singers are? You sound like a racist, dude.

[aquamarine11500]

@starbuck246 No i am not racist,most Asian singers cover a lot of American singers or alot R&B singers.which are black.

Whitney,Mariah,Chaka,Aretha etc...

Just something i noticed.Why do they do so many covers from those specific artist? IDK,but alot of those Filipino and Singaporean singers are copycats.I'm not racist just pointing out the obvious...

[joefrmsf]

@aquamarine11500 hmm, i'm not being racist or anything but a lot of the US movies now contain martial arts and asian horror story lines. Cartoons now are in the anime style. It seems like americans are full of COPYCATS too . The world is now international, everyone borrows from everyone. America still leads in music, you should be proud. I've seen latin and european rappers. But R&B is not the only music that is popular, check out the new singer of Journey..hes asian.

[kazki08]

@aquamarine11500 LOL but at least you listen to asian music.. coz you noticed it. copycating is not bad and they may be better than the original... and 1 more thing those artists that u mentioned are not pure americans... they arent native americans...

[aquamarine11500]

@kazki08 Yeah i do,it's just that alot of the time when they do renditions of our music it's like they are trying to exactly copy it,it's like they aren't adding their own flare to it.I can't tell you how many Philippeno singers i've come across who try to sound exactly like Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston.

And what the hell do you mean pure Americans,they are still American point blank.this song,artist,who song it, music is American

[kazki08]

@aquamarine11500 sorry to sy this but the fact is they are not fully blooded Native American... and those black - americans where do they came from??? obviously from black people nation.... ok i'll stop arguing w/ you.. at least charice got millions of $ and she is popular NOW!!

[aquamarine11500]

@kazki08 Never did i say they were full blooded Indians,but they are mixed down the line with here blood.Yourthe one who brought it up anyway.point is were still Americans.

I don't hate Charice,she just annoying SOMETIMES..

[aquamarine11500]

@kazki08 They are Americans, i've never said they were "pure" Americans.and i didn't say Americans in general just the pop and R&B,Soul ,Hip-Hop singers were black.which are predominately black people since these genres were created and pioneered by African-Americans..

and since you want to get technical and be a smart ass.did you know 85% of Black Americans have Native-American/Indian ancestry? Especially in the southern U.S.Including myself dude.so get your facts straight.

[shritchie]

Don't get me wrong, I do love me some Charice, but she starts off REALLY pitchy in this version... but right around the one minute mark she finds it and kills it! :-)

[regisdantas]

muito bom...

[shaider77]

I think she was just practicing in this video so one shouldn't be so judgmental. I wonder if Chaka Khan had the same range as Charice back when she was 14 yrs old. I wonder how many takes and edits it took for Chaka Khan to finalize the studio version. Has anybody seen her perform this song live? Who knows maybe Charice can do a much better version if ever she decides to sing it when performing before a live audience.

[red18warrior]

halimaw..

[robertsonlavapie]

wowow!! ibang iba na c charice ngaun!! haha...

[filxianmike3]

CHARICE, ZSA-ZSA, etc... isa lng ang kanilang styLe... pero pg si SARAH G, she can sing any genre weLL ..!!

[Tia2994]

super dooper awesome ! blah

[shihico]

She has a divas voice but there are some things that you can't reproduce. For enstince chakas scream, you can't do it.

[rj0917]

yes i agree... there's only one chaka khan but there is only one charice as well. cha has the talent and that wouldn't change. =)

[tgpjmd]

[freshcleanwater]

charice is the best filipino artist of all time. and i am proud of her!

[dxbgreg]

Nakaka inis makita ang mga comments tulad ng A5, D6, etc. lol. Wala ako may na intindihan dya, Ang alam ko lang, maganda pakinggan at pangit. Kay Charice, maganda pakinggan, wether its Z29 or X54 man yan.

[spiderjim1986]

hahaha.. lmao... ;p

you sound juz lyk my mom..

anywayz.. ang mga letters na yan, representations yan ng isang note sa music.. so basically ang C, D, E, F, G, A, B is just the same as Do Re Mi Fa Sol La Ti...

yung mga numbers, parang change of key kasabay ng maj and min.. ewan.. actually di ko me-explain.. maintindihan mo lang yan kung musician ka.. hehe.. soree..

[jackylyndiaz]

Unbelievable human being this girl is!

No formal voice training/coaching yet she can belt out this song to the max...

This is insane! She only maybe 15 to 16 years old when she did this song yet she managed to give justice and even better than I expected!

Charice....can't find a word to describe you yet stl thinking! hehehehe...

Go girl!

[dxbgreg]

she was 14

[kalakalachuchu]

alot of filipino can sing this song too and i think their better teeheeX)

[ambotlang77]

@jackylyndiaz you are perfectly right....she is amazing

[danscognito]

@jackylyndiaz oh whatever she's too overrated.

[artistickindaguy]

A5 lang higest note niya pano naging D6

[magicsinger23]

[whatdafrack]

[naglandianggaga]

Love you Charice Your the most talented singer in the Universe!

"The Internet Phenom"

There's no song the you cannot beat in this world!

Xempre may magtatanung: How about Mariah's songs?

Sagot: Uhmm Magkaiba kasi Yung style ng ginagamit nila(original and whistle voice) but yung range are the same... So what can I say is "kaya nya un!" maniwala kayo! angal? may nana sa pwet. haha lol

[naglandianggaga]

[cableguytoo]

[jmvoice]

[a5sk1ck]

She's gotten better on this song now @ 16. You won't hear any straining at all. Watch watch?v=zRILtt4RZzk&eurl

[fashionmwah]

Isn't practice the key?

[hateyou2000]

wow another G5 note

[eryu19]

i got two words for you! GOOSE BUMPS! hehehe

[jacksona333]

Charice was barely 14 years old when she sang this song by Chaka Khan and I think she sang it confidently and with passion.

[anipqm]

Hey, she can put many other singers to shame!

[0jhemmy0]

haha...your correct! i agree!

[charibelle04]

me too!! I already observed that when she duet some singers just like sarah though she is good. I but I think this should not happen because I'm afraid what the other said that charice is show off.

go charice!!!

[dessam2]

she dont have to prove anything anymore, we knew wht she is capable of, she is great.

[mischine]

indeed...

[simdisiwe]

@anipqm you mean pop singers but not soul singers if you know what i mean chaka is the best

[junjorxful]

@anipqm EXAMINE WHAT YOU COMMENTED I GUESS YOU WILL BE THE ONE TO BE PUT IN SHAME...CHARICE VOCALS NOT REALLY BEAUTIFUL THOUGH IT IS POWERFUL...

[rendition888]

@junjorxful loving someone's timbre is subjective. for me she got one of the most beautiful sounding pipes in this planet. i cud say this is even better than the original. wel thats my taste. i dont like chaka's chipmunky voice

[ComaLies225]

@anipqm She does, she sounds so much better and she's like what, 18? Women twice her age can't compete.

[gainguide]

@anipqm

at sino naman yun, aber?!?!

[rosalynmeinofel]

lol its jst one word that i cud say ahah "greAT!." SHE REALLY IS GREAT! AHHA LOL..

[IringB]

I wish to hear a high quality recording to this. Just want to know if she has smooth extremely-high pitch voice.

[booshterr]

this is amazing

she should sing this song more

wow

[slimanime]

[KieferOcampo]

NOT to mention that she nailed the song BETTER than MC

[jHamLiEye017]

c0nNecti0n..?!

[gas0701]

im sure she can nail those songs that u mentioned. even without whistle register. shes no mimicker. she can own the song if she want to... im sure she can give justice to MC's song in her own version.

[jacquipenar]

SICK AND OWNED!!! WOW!

[CCBaby]

This girl continues to amaze me, i am addicted :S

[metamorphicwurm2000]
