[SEXYDIVA69VIP]

WOW VANESSA  U SING SOO BEAUTIFUL :)

[yolly2870]

you're one of my favorite youtube artist, keep up the good work :)

[Raoulirshan]

omg this is beautiful! You're on of the best singers on Youtube IMO :) Keep it up!

[sfogfgokjsogjsdfks]

Wow! You sang this so well, I think its one of your best! If you ever do another audition for anything, please sing this song! I think this is the best range of notes for your voice. I listened to your x factor audition and when you sang 'if its over', although you can hit those big notes, I think when you go that high it doesn't sound as good to be totally honest. Just my opinion, but I loved this! I hope you will get a break someday

[sexibeej]

WURK BOO I LOVE IT... <3

[fasseph]

[fasseph]

I can't stop being amazed on how It doesn't matter how good you are, there's always going to be people that will hit the THUMBS DOWN button... haters! You rock V-Cross!

[jhvenus2004]

OMG, lovely. ........surely you've been told hundreds of times that you sing well. But listen, not only did you sing this well, your song selection here is a winner all by itself. Journey's masterful ballad from the old school, and Mariah Carey-like vocals from the new school. Forget about it!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@jhvenus2004 lol. thank you so much. I really enjoy this song.

[crazypeps1]

your awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[cypress7602]

Absolutely Beautiful!!!! I hope your dream comes true because you certainly deserve it!!!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@bayareabossalina thank you so much hun

[carlovalerio]

This is the best version of a Mariah song that you have recorded. Wow!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@carlovalerio thank you very much <3

[GaryYOfficial]

that was GREAT! I'm sitting here in awe just watching you, thinking how I need to take lessons from you. I wish I could sing with such conviction and emotion. Its something I lack in all my singing videos. I don't know how to achieve it. You did amazing Vanessa and you sounded phenomenal as usual my dear. Love you

[nativemrv19722]

Wonderful !

[IdolReady]

You should be so famous... you're just too good to not have CDs and concerts... I would pay good money to see you live lol... you should audition for the x Factor!!! they would love you!!

[anjelheaven]

I'm soooo jealous! It should be illegal to sing this well. It's just not fair because I can't sing worth a crap. lol You are constantly serving it up and making a lot of folks faves look bad. GOOD JOB! ♥

[TheVanessaCruz]

@TiramisuCD wow that has to be one of the best compliments!! thank u!!

[mzjaerock]

Vanessa i came across your video looking through Mariah videos, and fell in love with your voice. YOU GOOO GIRL :) You now have one more fan!!!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@mzjaerock awww thanks so much!! i appreciate it! :D

[Marvinglz]

This is one of my favorite Mariah Carey songs! You did a great job! I just wished you wouldn't spread the vowels when you sing those high belt notes. It kinda gives it a twangy sound instead of a pop/ballad sound.

[chachirachi]

Das My girl THE VOICE of Youtube..Slay these other fakes vanessa SLAY

[TheVanessaCruz]

@chachirachi LOLOLOL!!! Thanks boo!!! <3

[glitternan]

Wow, girl you have a voice!!!!!!!! Loves it!!!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@glitternan thank you so much <3 xoxox

[arabiandouble]

What mechanism are you using to project your voice? Is it simply a microphone, because it doesn't sound like it's only a mic. But girl you can blow! Keep up with that voice.

[MusicLuver093]

You're vocal run at the end is phenomenal! Great jobbb!!!!

[TheVanessaCruz]

@MusicLuver093 YAY! Glad u approve! LOL ... thanks so much!

[TheIsaDianne]

It is ridiculous. The change of colors in your voice, the riffs, the runs, the lows to highs, your vibrato, JUST EVERYTHING is always so flawless. I've said this before, and I'll say it again: there's nobody on youtube who can mimic Mariah songs like you. NOBODY. You're perfection. You're made to do this. Love you <3

[TheVanessaCruz]

@JohnScurry awwww <3 thanks so much

[ndop]

Hola Vanessa, dónde has aprendido a cantar así? Tanto tú como tu primo cantan con unos trinos en la voz que yo solo podría soñar. Hay algún método? O lo suyo ya es natural? Saludos desde Argentina. Y por favor sigue subiendo videos que disfruto muchísimo viéndote cantar.
