  • no matter what anyone says on here that is negative, you've got it. I watched you hit those notes and I was in awe! Keep singing your heart out. You should try out for American Idol. You've got a good shot at it, for sure.

  • Boy can sing, thanks for interpreting a great song.

  • I LOVE!

  • good job bro!

  • Omg you sound awesome!!! Pls check out my version.. hopefully you'll like it ;)

  • Wow that is impressive range! Very rare for a guy to be able to hit a Mariah song note-for-note! Very Rare!

    You remind me a little of Adam Lambert at certain points (My fave male singer).That's a big complement for me to give! I have to say you need a better mic though. That one sounded horrible!

  • AMAZING

  • pretty good, just a little too much crack in ur voice. it sounds like ur straining. i should do the whistle for u

  • wow not an easy song for a guy to sing! awesome!!

  • dude! im in love with you!

  • im sorry, but that's annoying.

  • @diamonddonut likewise, I'm sure. 

  • @jonmcsingee

    im sorry honey don't cry on me now, it's just my opinion.

  • @diamonddonut ditto.

  • @jonmcsingee

  • Sounds great!! I'll be posting this song later this year along with a lot of her other harder songs. Let me know what you think of my covers so far! Thanks! Keep singing, you have an amazing voice! :) Mariah is my fav. artist and I would love to meet her some day. :)

    Crystal

  • OMFGOOOSHH..

    You're amazing..

    I mesmerized!!!

    Awesome job...

  • You should be on Idol or something!! Anything!! You have got to get a record deal.

  • Very good ... Dude you sing a lot. you have messenger?

    we would exchange techniques and knowledge about voice

  • You are simply amazing... A guy with your range.. Wanna see and hear you sing..

  • Incredible!!!

    i think you have tremendous talent!!!

    the sound qulity might not be so good, but you hit every tone right. So except the great voice, you have a reeeaally good ear too!!! I'm shocked.....loved your voice

  • All i can say it wow..amazing how high u can go.

  • Thanks again for listening! Hope you check out some of my other vids.

  • @kcrysten your hot baby

  • I just posted this song on my site. Um i didnt do the end part, lol my jaw was giving out on me.

  • You brought sudden tears to my eyes when u belted out your higher notes. Great job.

  • GUAUUUUUUUUUUUUU GUAUUUUUUUU Congratulations, desde argentina, you voice is perfect my friend, great job

  • I think this is the best male version of this song on youtube.Very warm and heartfelt.

  • I was in the mood for some vintage Jon tonight and had to hear this track again.

  • That is really nice, thanks. Vintage is right...this is when I had hair! lol

  • yesss u sing very well could u try "i wish you well"

    Actually what's ur range ?

    i guess it's Eb 5 or F 5 for the high chest register but what's the lowest notes u can do ?

    Anyway good job

  • nice

  • u've done a great job man!

  • This was actually one of my favourite performances from you that I've seen so far. I can't believe Mariah wrote that song as a teenager. What a brilliant performance of it at the 'Tattoo Club' in 1990. It would be a cool idea to upload your audition on AI - despite not getting through, it would be really fun to see.

  • nice voice . . . .actually very good voice.

    However your camera skills need a lot more work. Or maybe just a tripod. . . stack of books ect . . . :-)

  • nice pipes yo,

    you might even pass for the star spangeled banner someday!!!!!!!!!

    <33333

    much loveeeeee!!!!

    OMG ROFL.

    ILYYYY <33333

    OMG.

    :DDDD

  • 5 stars

  • NICE!

  • i think its good but im not going to lie to you by telling you it was great because your voice is amazing and you have a lot of soul, but for the real high notes your voice sounded a bit too srained and you souned a lil akward... stick in a range you feel comftorable in... other than that u were pretty good

  • great !! well done

  • nice!

  • I liked it. Develop more control over your range and style and you can make it. You need some original, dramatic vocal material. Good luck!!! sAm:)

  • Good try. Good range!

  • man i cant believe it you are awsome, Karina

  • Great voice!

  • wonderful again!!! keep it up man!

  • not bad!!!!!

  • Beautiful work....5 stars

  • Dude... you're just amazing... I love this song and I never thought a men could do this song so well as you do. Congrats!

  • Dude, you just BLEW- ME-AWAY! You were born to do this!

  • Hey that was good

    The song is difficult but ya know how to sing...

    you sing concentrated good Job...

    and it is Mariah Number WoooW

  • i am actually impressed

    for a guy to sing mariah carey ... that almost impossible

    good job!!

  • Very impressive. As has been commented, I am amazed by your range, and by the force you put behind every note of it. Incredibly hard song to sing without sounding horrible, but you were great! Thank you for sharing!

  • i liked it- though wish u just sang it rather than the vocal acrobatics ya know but good ;)

  • I thought that was great! Your last note rocked! This is my all time favorite song, I like the key you sing it in!

  • I love the way you sing this song, you have a great range..keep doing your thing!!

  • congratulation,great version of one of my favorite songs,amazing voice,but you must change the place where you sing.Bad acoustic.

    Simply i like it .(Sorry for my english, i,m spanish boy)

  • when I listen to Justin Timberlake, I always think that he sounds good but something is missing. Listening to you, I've figured it out. You've got soul. That is key to great singing. You bring it, pour it out and leave it all hanging out. Impressive!

  • thanks that was an awesome comment!

  • WOWOWOWOWOWOWOW>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    OMG your are good. Jealous :-)

  • i hope u got a record deal or close to it....u have something thats VERY rare

  • thanks!

  • generally...my favorite thing to do is rip people apart who MASACRE covers - but that was really good!

  • heh heh I hear you..thanks for not ripping me apart!

  • Wow..I heard you sing one of Mariah's songs and so I rushed to listen to the rest of your repertoire... Man, if Mariah stood beside you on stage, she'd probably just stare at you in amazement or she'd leave the stage lest she be blown away, by a man no less. That range is unbelievable and you sang it live with no acoustic enhancement! I consider myself a more than capable singer, but I take my hats off to you. You gotta put that talent to great use, man.  Go get a recording contract... NOW!

  • lol thanks...if God wills it I'll get one~peace!

  • Wow great voice man! and I really feel the message when you sing it!

  • GREAT VOICE MAN!

  • OMG you have a really powerful voyce!You sing like a soprano, no offens, Great voice.

  • OMG. I'm a pretty attractive guy, dude. Wanna go out sometime?

    Seriously.

    LOL -- you're really good man.

  • Yeah, you.., you need a record deal.

    Real Talk.

  • O MY GOD... ok i dont care what any body says. any grown man that can sing like that has some kinda gift. not just anybody can do that. MAJOR props for that. Wow... wish i could hit those. im in awe.

  • Thank you, you're very kind.

  • I LOVEEEE YOUR VOICE!!!!!!!

  • Oh my god! how can you hit so high notes? it's incredible...

  • i don't know! lol, j/k but everyone always asks that--thanks for enjoying it! I'm glad anyone at all would listen!

  • @toudourini Well he does sound like a girl .

  • Wow. It's like Mariah Carey meets Stevie Wonder. SAAAANG!

  • wooohoooooo

    great

    now i THINK i don't know if it's true but i think you've used only your chest voice, so i'd love to ask and i'll be waiting for a respond baby

    how long have you been training on this? or you've just realized that you got it and started singing?

  • this is amazing again, my favorite Mariah song and this wonderful wonderful voice of yours =)

    i have always wanted to be able to sing as high as you lol

  • lol u dont sound like a munchkin i ve heard worse...ur prety good in fact

  • I almost didn't listen...but I am SO glad I did!! Probably my most favorite song, and you did a wonderful job. Now I'm off to listen to your other videos... (darn it, I have so much to do and no time, either, but this is now an apparent priority!!)

    KEEP SINGING, Mr. McSingee!!

    Hugs,

    ~Heather~

  • Delighted you enjoyed it.

  • keep your voice and take care of it you can sing

  • most guys can hit that pitchy falsetto voice hes singing in....i find it all to be unenjoyable, insulting to the original song, and your jousting around to be disturbing. Why not sing karoke at a local bar, at least you'll give people a good laugh?

  • That is so mixed range it's not even funny. This man is obviously a counter-tenor.

  • Odd tone, not very pretty to listen to...kind of munchkinish

  • lol, wow first time I've been described as sounding like a munchkin...now those are some creepy little dudes!

  • Those idiots are just jealous

  • your range is INSANE! and the riffs were great too

  • thank u much!

  • lame

  • You captured everything that is Mariah with your own. Keep on. I mean it.

  • wow wow u are a super high tenor but it actually fits perfect cause shes high alto on that song thats a good choice song ill bet u can sing "without you" by mariah carey good tooo

  • Loved it!

    You sing kinda like me(when I'm singing high)

    Kinda pitchy in parts but your a great singer!(The only advice that you need is to breath more and not rush into the notes and runs)Other than that rated 5 stars!

  • Thank you for the rating, and the advice!! God Bless.

  • Despite what Randy Jackson might have us all believing, "Pitchy is not a word!" ~~and I

  • I think it's an interesting coined slang. But I heard no "pitchiness" at all taking into acount his limited recording devices.

  • ...whoops, other comment got cut off...but 'pitchy' isn't a word...LOL! Especially if Harry says so. I think his mic had a lot to do with what we're hearing vs. what he's actually putting out. Jon's a 5-star-singer all the way...you GO ON with you BAD SELF!!

    Hugs,

    ~H~

  • How did you train yourself?

    Did it take long to get a strong mix voice?

    Thanks man, good voice.

  • hmm..i am not that trained (as many will attest) but I just kinda tried to mimic what I heard on cd's and sung it over and over lol. Yep, I drove my family crazy.

  • mY GOD THAT WAS AWESOMELY THE BEST COVER EVER!!! MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER THAN THAT AMERICAN IDOL GIRL'S COVER!

  • dam, ima girl and i couldnt even dream of going that high

  • hey hey watch it now, only one God and I don't wanna be burned to a crisp over here..but thanks for liking it so much.

  • WOW! I am pleasantly surprised.. Good job!

  • great voice! i saw this i think 2 years ago, but only now i have posted a comment. check also my videos.

  • Thanks for coming back! I will soon as I can, peace!

  • ok...when i first saw this i was hmmmm hes probably alright....but NOW...OMG....u hit like every figgin note!! Mariah would be so proud...ur amazing!!

  • Hey thanks alot that means so much to me that you liked it. God bless!

  • damn boy you can sing. im not even gonna lie, i didnt expect it but boy keep in singing=)

  • not a fan of the angle but your voice is incredible. very good technique, bravo.

  • LOL, thanx!!

  • Wow!! you sing great this is Alice and Crystal we are your biggest fans ha ha ha.

  • lol ya'll are crazy

  • i think ur a great singer however i dont think this song is right for you.. mostly because u have a higher voice than the song calls for.

  • really good!

  • very talented.

  • muchas gracias

  • Keep singing!!!! Love this song and you did it justice.

  • THANK YOU!

  • oh my god you made meget goose bumps you are off thehook..oh my goodness you need to get signed pronto..wow amazing!!!

  • lol, thanks! from your fingers to God's eyes.

  • Hey, you are better than most contenders in American Idols. Have you ever thought give it a try? I think you just may win it. Great job.

  • Thank you. I tried Idol back in '04 and they passed, twice! It was fun though.

  • Wow, it is hard to believe. You are much better than most of the contenders. I will put you up there with Fantasia and Kelly for sure, two I think are the best. Maybe you should give it a try one more time. Maybe your voice is more mature now. Good luck.

  • Great job!

  • Your voice reminds me of Tevin Campbell awesome bro.

  • He has an awesome voice, thanks.

  • Once again you've smashed it!! like someone else said, a hidden treasure by Mariah brought back by YOU!! You're great! My cousin is the only other person I know who has performed this song very well.

  • Wow thanks for the compliment!

  • i don't believe i have ever heard a male hit those notes.

    i love that song. where did you get the instrumental recording? i've been looking for one so i can perform it at a talent contest.

  • Thanks for liking it! I got the instrumental from an online karaoke site (i think it was kstar or something similar) and just played it through my speakers. Hope you find it!

  • you brought some greta memmories....thanks...keep up the good work...did you record anything....if you did i would like to hear it....i have some recordings that i would like to share with you... :-)

  • great...I sang along with ya...but I am a baritono...but great...I played doing the lower voice, it was fun. First time I ever wanted to sing along with an amateur video...you got me going. thanks

  • Wow, that's cool!!! Thanks for enjoying the performance so much, God Bless.

  • Thank you so much, I love Smokey and MJ so that's a great compliment! God Bless :)

  • Great Job! Had me from the first note.

    You have like a Smokie Robinson/Michael Jackson sound, and it's great!!

    And, that range, truly awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!

    IT'S AMAZING!
