[lo0818uise]

[HanneBannan]

O Wow!! I thought it was Whitney in the beginning!

[CrazyLeaf2912]

Orz... Press enter accidentally... Keep going... THEY SOUNDS SIMILAR DOESN'T MEAN HE IS COPYING HER! IF ANYONE DON'T BELIEVE ME, JUST GO AND BUY HIS CD, IT'S SELLING UNIVERSALLY

[CrazyLeaf2912]

Just in case if anyone doesn't know the truth but criticize him... THAT'S THE WAY HE SING, HE IS NOT COPYING WHITNEY, THEY SOUNDS SIMILAR DOESN'T

[zedmarks]

Haircut, ASAP.

[PittsburghWeirdo]

i have soooooo many questions. 1. does he speak english? 2. do the other people speak english(judges, crowd etc.)? 3. how did he have no acent? those r the top 3.

[albarrela]

笑是多么酷的锤子

[chizhr]

god he sounds good))

[naynaybedahbest]

good job !!!! cryed omg !!!

[mariobarkman]

@naynaybedahbest *cried

[Lee7676]

Lin,im very proud of you.people think asians can be good martial arts,but nobody is famous for singer.show to the world asian can sing!

[ZkimzyZ]

Whitney Houston, the original . Not this chubby.

[MusicIzMySavior]

@ZkimzyZ ur a fucking loser who cant appraciate talent, no 1 claimed he is whitney, for god sake man shut the fuck up and dont bloody coment

[ZkimzyZ]

@MusicIzMySavior Ahahaa, little defensive much? I like the original. And I do appreciate talent.

[MusicIzMySavior]

@ZkimzyZ sorry bro, i think i went a tad over board lol, i apologize bro, whitney used 2 be great bro, not anymore, but his vocal abilities are top notch, his problem is pronunciation

[ZkimzyZ]

@MusicIzMySavior I'm a girl.

[su9232003]

Lin sings well but I don't agree he is talent by copying the singing of Whitney. He should sing in his way. Check my channel and you will find the real talent. I haven't found anyone who can sing songs of Chinese/English/Japanese/Itali­an/Russian and can play piano like me. :D

[24shero]

我真擔心林宇春的一眉毛的生活，因為他皺著眉頭這麼多

[mikamivivi]

恭喜你,煦你的聲音。

[kiteflyer2000]

Cute voice, better than Alvin & the Chipmunks. Comparing him to Whitney is simply madness.

[MilloRyborg]

Nice!!



[smonic28]

fantasztikus :)))))

[campos8904]

i thought taiwan only made cheap toys ??

[AprilPai]

@campos8904 Are you living in mountain? or just 7 grade? If you have no common sense what's Taiwan can do now, you should watch TV often. Check out your computer maybe it's MIT.

[campos8904]

@AprilPai lol so they do only make cheap toys??

[800712]

God give him good voice... i touch by listen to him

[campos8904]

@800712 you touch yourself listening to him?? what??

[Maxboost335]

Very funny

[crisck]

amei.... PRINCIPALMENTE o cabelo kkk

mas realmente tem uma linda voz...

--

i loveeeee.... specially the haircut :)

but the guy have a GREAT voice......

[phill593]

=' homi... tah d aparabéns.

[missmajon]

hey Lin Yu Chun !

please go on tour with whitney.

she's just pretending to sing, and you sing it for her :D

[hollytakuma]

老師勒 看開頭我以為是惠妮唱的

[r80670]

he is so good. I dont understand why ppl would describe him as Chinese. because he is a Total Taiwanese! hahaha

[aznbyblood]

@r80670 im pretty sure "taiwanese" people, are chinese

[Cmac80Proof]

@aznbyblood I'm pretty sure you're an idiot....

[icklefig]

So after the reading the comments I watched Charice....sorry but I found it really affected and forced. To be honest there was only ever one version of this song that didn't sound affected and it is Whitney's version.

I was shocked when I heard this version as I did think it was a girl singing! He's no Whitney or Susan Boyle for that matter...but he's ok. His english is better than my taiwanese!

Some songs can't be covered and this is one of them. xx

[rubendariogil]

bull shlt ---This is the original

[icybee88]

@rubendariogil

oh really?

[jmorgan87]

Nah man the singing you hear is not Whitney.

[rubendariogil]

bull shlt ---This is the original

[MasakOblue88]

holy sh!t O.O

[gregzyww]

Wow u can get a made in tawian version for any product....and guess what... Its cheaper and just as food!

[Blade5468]

@gregzyww I'm glad to know it's just as foo.

Now if only you could teach your mind the joys of proofreading.

[hodges1]

@gregzyww

just as food huh?

[legendcha]

In fact if you want to see a rendition version of charice out of her hundred performances that this taiwanese kid covered, see this video:

watch?v=HkaE9SLwCDo

This, Charice, sang at age 12, and that's not her full 100% power yet. Charice only played this simple and easy. Today Charice is now 17 and her vocals has gone supremely scary and beyond disbelief I cannot describe it!

[legendcha]

And Whitney? Whitney will always be Whitney. It's not just vocals, it's also artistry. Whitney has both that's why she can make songs her own. But Charice, like whitney, at such young age is getting there. In fact, Charice artistry is there now -- just waiting for the album this May 11 to show-case her own style and artistry! With both combined, Charice can rightfully claim the baton that Whitney has long held and be not only THE NEXT VOICE, but THE VOICE OF THE DECADE!

[legendcha]

The moment I saw Charice sing 3-4 years ago, nothing surprises me anymore. And No other singer can surprise me other than Charice.

These taiwanese guy sings in falsetto, his version is just typical and buried amongst the hundred performances of charice.

On the other hand, because he's a guy ( and at age 24 is it? ) I still give kudos to him for such high notes just because at age 24 he has passed that stage when all other boys can sing high notes and loses that vocal potential after awhile

[kimura2Loc]

i though it was Whitney's and waiting for  the Taiwanese boy to sing

[agn0]

@watsondw1987 considering his ability to sing high notes he is lacking air.. try to search charice, she sang this song perfectly....... or i guess charice sang this song well

[hippocrunchy]

goose bums*

[bogunna]

I'm waiting for the sequel of the movie "The Bodyguard 2".

[SuperHardwater]

nice Taiwanese boy .....loves your voice...

[mookiepearl]

I don't care what people say...he will NEVER be Whitney Houston even is she's in a bad state right now. I still give him props though, he does sounds good.  I don't like anything mimics - he should find his won style now that he has gotten an audience. Although they say imitation is the best compliment.

[Shame4Zizou]

a Taiwan friend's just told me this boy won a no. of prizes in Taiwan.

[Shame4Zizou]

Gifted voice +talent !!

[JustinaWang]

Why he did not get full marks?

Appearance discrimination?

[Kamisurasan]

who cares where he comes from. He`s a great singer as an individual.

so high pitch at 2:33 o_O wow

[fs1140333]

chinese always talk about races, gene and blood. They never mention freedom and democracy.The nation is Not consisted of what you look like. It Is consisted of what you believe in. You believe violence and autocracy, fine, then be a chinese. You believe freedom and democracy, we Taiwanese welcome you.

[SuperHardwater]

@fs1140333 nice  i like you :) Taiwanese is goood place

[08575899]

Made In Taiwan !!!!

[thefancycake]

@08575899 這英文用錯了! 而且我們的不謙虛,馬上引起別人的反彈.

凡是低調一點, 不要做反宣傳.(另外在按"贊成"之前,,請仔細看一下別人的反­應)

(也請大家儘量不要在網路上和別人筆戰,包括阿六啊) (不好意思, 我不得不說)

[Leonidus0]

@08575899 Made in Taiwan? Funny how you guys didn't even like him until he gained international fame. Wasn't he kicked off the show (that aired before he gained international fame) ?

This is from a Vietnamese observing..

[wtfnplm]

@08575899 Made in Taiwan ? =)) you make me laugh, i mean i like his voice. But Made in Taiwan ?! I first heard of your country by checking the MADE IN TAIWAN on toy cars like matchbox and now i'm hearing again because of this fat dude with an incredible voice. So take your Made in Taiwan and go away ! So what i want to say is ... Taiwan is not a country full of talents .

[MusicIzMySavior]

@wtfnplm shut the fuck up man and stop with that dogmatic claim

[cracobom999]

amazing.....what a great talent !!!

[tmhmangame]

挖靠 恐怕連評審都會紅到國際

[love23231]

@tmhmangame k significa esoo??????

[kyle6098]

@tmhmangame 評審是沾上小胖的光~小胖是台灣的國寶!

[hahenao]

Disgusting...

[ShaunRodgers]

no real need to the mashup of the bodyguard in there- that movie is not very good. they could have just had the guy sing, thats impressive enough

[stephenking888]

amazing!

[Phixiechick]

holy..O.o

he is soooo GOOD!! :D

[motorola99]

thats a girl, atleast sings like one.

[Mezhona]

@Nonaization somehow I fel bad for you :p but then again I had the same lol xD

[Mike77USA]

This KID is ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!! This is better than good ..its downright PERFECT ...PERFECT!!! The falsetto pitch... the tone ...the souful emotions and feeling..the way he touches your heart and soul...amazingly in perfect English. My family and I just can't stop listening to Lin. He got so much range and variation with his voice and appears to be so cool and composed.

Looking forward to your new album. Way to Go brother!!

America Loves you!!!

Mike77USA

[guzhengpiano]

come on...don't make this into a political argument.

just enjoy his amazing singing talent

[agn0]

he can't sustain his high notes, lacking of air i guess.. charice sing this way better than him

[watsondw1987]

@agn0 i disagree , i think he does really well at hitting the high notes considering his disabilitly. he is only a young boy

[Nononsense888]

@kaiz88 take it easy. Why are your insulting people? Are you from China and not happy that Taiwan is getting a bit exposure because of this? China has lots of talented people. No need to get nasty.

[qo3s]

@kaiz88 insulting ppl.... a country w/ a billion something people, if there aren't many talented ppl then it's pretty pathetic

[mite00]

@qo3s Taiwan has far less than 1 billion ppl. Taiwanese is not Chinese. Get your fact straight.

[ShaunRodgers]

@qo3s youre an idiot

[vote4geertwilders]

ths kid is so amazing he is on every channel around the world,,,i was in the uk on he was on tv there and now im home in the usa he is on tv here ,,, i wish him all the very best and i hope he has a great future god bless him

[ochoa44]

[219686]

[marocgirlha]

BOAAAR HAMMER STIMME (Y)

*____*

[Mayangone]

I returned from Taiwan recently. The real Taiwanese are probably the decendents of the aborigines that settled on the island before the sixteenth century. If the DNA of the so called Taiwanese, especially the ones that are on denial, are tested, they will match with folks from Fujain, China.

[yvonnechu]

Taiwanese = amazing (and I meant Taiwanese, not Chinese)

=)

[SophiiePiie]

I find it pretty amazing, but quite disturbing at the same time. :S

[Kittman05]

and i doubt it will be comming anytime soon

[niiyatube]

TAIWANESE

[1943stone]

good luck. but as long as China exist,you can't see that day coming.

[neo5365]

One day Taiwanese will show the world who we are and we will never be confused with Chinese again.

[aznvincekong]

@neo5365 

LMAO

[neo5365]

@aznvincekong LMAO all you can you know one can stop us

[qo3s]

@neo5365 :D

[vilmun]

Resistapathy that is absolutely correct.

[nahyank]

@resistapathy Taiwan belongs to CHINA....LONG LIVE CHINA.

[lonelysymphony]

@nahyank Taiwan "belongs" to the people who live there.

[qo3s]

@lonelysymphony yeap

[Nononsense888]

@nahyank I don't think most people in Taiwan will agree with you.  Only people outside of Taiwan say Taiwan belongs to China without a pause.

[nahyank]

@Nononsense888 LONG LIVE CHINA!!!!!

[qo3s]

@nahyank or not... the prc has only been around for 61 yrs.

[PresidentialMoments]

Taiwan has offically proclaimed that it is a independant state.. A long long time ago..

[leemmee]

@resistapathy ..hope u are not instigating the worst. sitting on yr armchair..dont forget over half the population are "in two minds"

[Mike77USA]

@resistapathy chill out man...This kid can bring peace to any cold war with His GReat Great voice. We need Lin on American Idol he'll blow away all the ridiculous wanna be singers. Dolly & Whitney would be proud of that great performance even Simon Cowe.

Lin you got a lot of American Fans already. We need you in the USA. I predict you'll be the next great international star.

[Valkiyre]

@resistapathy Communist power O___O

[FOXOF123]

@resistapathy taiwan is not corrupted? wat a joke you are a fool dont spread your political bullshits around here. taiwan is a small island with taipei as its main city the rest of taiwan is like country side... taiwan has no great history and taiwan will always be a small island and nothing more... i hope china has 1 missile point to your head cos assholes like you deserve 1

[qo3s]

@FOXOF123 what a hypocrite u are foxo, i hope all the missiles are aimed @ u "cos assholes like you deserve" them all. read before u post geez, no 1 is saying taiwan, or anywhere is not corrupted.

[qo3s]

@resistapathy well said resistapathy!!!

[ELHARZAD]
