Utada Hikaru - Passion [cover by Rin]

[SyaminKyuHye]

You have a nice voice ^-^

[IceWinifredd]

you're not bad but you could use some practice. :)

[Shartox]

I only understand the English version .. but... the Japanese Version is the Orginal Language of Kingdom Hearts so.. i found your cover.. and think right now.. That u do a Good Job... All the others who says that suck... should sing it self and Upload it. And i think the most of them won't do that because they can't sing! And can't do that better than you....

Sorry for my bad english..

Greetings from Germany!

[trackstaar]

3:20 "Your unicorn mow down my dinosaur" lol

[PrincessZeki15]

YR A BEAUTIFUL SINGER....KEEP ON SINGING AND DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!! WITH LOTS OF <3 ^,^

[DevoTheHottie]

luv, you have a great voice but just need a tiny bit more practice and you have it :). Really hoping to see more singing vids from you though, keep it up! (seriously, you have talent)

[ChinemayStarToBe]

@DevoTheHottie bich wish u could sing like her

[KrayzeeLife]

is there an english vertion of this song?

i love it and i love ur singing! =D

[moganDESU]

@KrayzeeLife Yes, there is; it's called "Sanctuary".

[iDawlie]

Beautiful :) people aren't robots, we make mistakes :P

[Halo3Focus]

love how people comment about u bein rubbish? your amazing i couldnt sing full stop let alone another language (if your not japanese XD) either way WOW!

[SorasShadow1]

I like the strength in your voice but one pet peave of mine is the sound of the mic in the song, I believe the other critiques covered your other mistakes but the one i mentioned was merely technical and could not be avoided i believe. Keep it up!

[jolan120]

miss rin can you please send me the instrumental of this song please

[animeInuYasha017]

Very beautiful voice. Keep doing what you do. :)

[ImvuMFcouture]

great!! ur voice sounds beautiful!

[iiAngelic]

wow you really are great.!

[emilyc505]

ur good but it could be improved

[mello1142]

Where did you get the karaoke/instrumental version from? Did you use a program to get it? Or did you find it somewhere?

[kimakaanna]

Your voice is...unique. I really like it. It's soft but strong.

[Naturerocks411]

Wow! You're amazingly in tune! O_o! Impressive voice!

[Thesnowbunnielova]

this is sooo good...i uv ur voice! im tryin 2 sing this in french :P

[NTUNKNOWN]

Or maybe she has a pretty voice but this song just doesn't suit her voice?

[EmptySound3424]

I love it! Faved! ^^

[EmptySound3424]

Whats ur problem?! She sounds great!

[NTUNKNOWN]

@EmptySound3424 Are you fucking deaf to not notice this small excuse of a talent?

She can't sing, she can't even keep some notes, she first has to practise than go singing around and putting her video over here. Still, she's clearly stupid for thinking that she can cover a amazing track like this, the least she could do is pick a song that would suit this ugly-nose-pitched voice of hers

[EmptySound3424]

@NTUNKNOWN IM not fuckin' deaf! Ur a fuckin' idiot cuz u dont know talent when u see it! Lets hear you sing it, jackass!! Or are you too bitch too? No need to answer, I know. UR A FUCKIN' HYPOCRIT!! GO DIE IN A SHIT FILLED HOLE!!

[NTUNKNOWN]

@EmptySound3424 And now you're blind too, When people think they can sing, they post their shit. I'm a hypocrite? Why's that? Did I ever mention here that I could sing or whatsoever? Seriously do something about those eyes of yours and while you're at it: try to fix your ears too^^

I don't know talent? please shut up moron, some girl even recruited me for my opinion because I recognized talent. Is that all you have? Some lousy 8 year old ranting? Go sleep little child or mommy will get upset :)

[moshimisu]

@EmptySound3424 ..Are you being serious? Just because someone doesn't agree with your opinion you tell them to go die? Watch what you say behind that computer of yours. Because frankly, you look like an idiot doing so.

[vawwediva1]

very good singing

[Leoo004]

Great voice keep it up

[beep1off]

[skeetoe93]

[kagomeaka]

[MikinoTifa]

You go girl- that was some very, very amazing singing! i love the way your voice waves- i cant do that- i dont know if theres something to be done or if some have and some dont. keep up the exelent work =)

[tamie102]

[EMOtristinlee]

awesome

[CuteLittleNightmare]

this is....WOW! way to go! this was excellent!!!! you are amazing!!!!

[Sormarxas15]

Great job!

[rugbytackles]

wow ur have an amazing fab voice,,x

[OnlyObsession95]

Amazing voice!!

[HAsoNrEaUL]

1:48 was a bit disturbing

2:25 - lyrics

"nidoto a??? hitori... basho ni mado akeru" should have been "nidoto aenu... hito ni... basho ni

mado akeru"

3:05 - sharp (because of air supply?)

3:26 - be careful pronouncing the lyrics

"r" is pronounced like a mix of /l/ & /r/, not /l/ alone.

These are so minor... :D

I liked the way how you sang the song but I would also like to hear your own version of this song.

[Johnny42819]

everybody's a critic..

it sounded perfect to me

[Elementalstart]

Exactly ^_^ however, it should be used carefully. Some people may take it the wrong way.

[Diequartz]

I don't see how people thumbed you down. :) Thanks for viewing and commenting!

[lilchibihanna]

well done. this song is hard to sing and you did it beautifully. You should be proud of yourself,love.

[JapaneseShinju]

i agree, she did a great job. i disagree that it is hard to sing, i find it one of hikaru's easier songs to sing. final distance, first love and passion/sanctuary

[NicNac4eva]

You have an amazing voice, and this is one of the best dub of this song i've seen :3 I only noticed the few wavers you pointed out in the description, but your voice is really amazing~

I done Sancutary, but soon hope to do Passion too, i was wondering, do you have any tips for making your voice stronger?

[MiSsRoCk108]

omg this is a very hard song 2 sing ur so good =)

can i make a request ?

can u do exodus for me ? its by utada hikaru too ^^ i'll be so glad 2 see it

[SailorAmi94]

This is amazing! I love how your voice is stronger that Utada's, it gives the song real feeling and it makes the whole things sound really nice!!! Keep it up!!!

[mitsuyo0]

good job! ^0^ very well done!! Keep up the good work.

[travisger11]

omg this song is soooooooooooooooo! hard to sing. i wonder how hikki did it. but you are really amazing!

[abominerd]

I like how you sound in some parts, but you seem to sing from your nose. But you definitely aren't bad at all. :3

[stuipdthing]

You were of tune on a couple parts but given the song choice I think most everyone can let it go, cause this song is so hardddd. And you sang it really well, i like your voice

[doldray]

this song is too difficult

so you are very very fantastic!

[xarkm]

heeey

really niice voice =P

oh right do you still have the karaoke version you a using in your video?

[vanachan]

you are a really good singer , I'm looking foward for the next song :)

[heromarcostrago]

she's got a place amongst the pop divas japan and stateside I'd say! Beautiful voice for a lovely gal.

[SnickerzAnime14]

This is the best cover of the song I've heard!

:D

[TheGuitaRNovice]

that was really amazing :D

[yoardilla]

this is a very difficult song x____x

I tried it too!! You´re really good :D You have the sweet voice of a young japanese girl! so cute!

[MayReanna]

too AWESOME FOR WORDS!!!!!!!!!

[SaluteToTheSeagulls]

OH my god, I know you probably knwo your good, but I'm just gunna tell your your amazing! I really love this song, thanks!! Wow, I can't get over it!

[sakihiroyuki]

...(in case u can't tell I'm speechless)

[jukenfist]

not enough emotion at the end

[panicatthediscochica]

OMG UR AMAZING! awesome job!!! ^^

[jokeris1]

Passion and Final Distance would have to be my favorite covers that you did. You have an amazing and strong voice, very much like Hikki-chan's. Keep up the good job. BTW, do you take requests?

[stel230]

If you don't mind my saying so, the songs you sing in Japanese sound better than the songs you sing in English. You seem to capture the emotion better with the japanese covers. I like the youthful sound in your voice, it adds something to your covers. Your cover of "blue" by Hikaru Utada is amazing. You should think about singing something of you own.

[Kiyenna]

Wooow, that was beautiful! :D Excellent job. You did so well on the rest of it, it makes up for the mistakes you mentioned.

[REMIXEDCOLA]

wow u are crazy good, in simple and clean i recognized you just sang, and didnt have any backround music, maybe one day i'll meet you and i'll play the guitar XD

[gbail9566]

Your voice is so strong...as if I were watching the Utada PV! You are as talented as you are generous with that talent.

[akaiyoruyume]

a little sharp but still... wooooottssss yay...great job

[chesterket]

the crack on the chorus part did not ruined the entire song. haha i watched a lot of ur video and i notice that ur singing skill is getting better. especially this one..is great..more utada songs k?ahhaah see ya

[Diequartz]

<3 Thank you!

[zusjevanRely]

it's just perfect! Do you use Passion ~after the battle~ as background music en reapeated it a few times?

[Diequartz]

Er nope, somebody sent me the instrumental.

[HikkiFanNumber1]

ow :O

[killerkevin001]

your so good 0_0 omg *hug* im in love

[Cearmta]

Waaah, you didn't have use an instrumental with the reverse and background voices! Oh well.

Anyway. Another good job, but I'm starting to notice in your pronounciation, you pronounce your 'r's too much like 'l'. It's supposed to be a nice mix of the two...:P

I enjoyed it very much, despite the fact you messed up a tiny bit on the lyrics and the lack of TEH AWSUM reverse 'I need more affection than you know'. Passion is a hard song to sing, and you pulled it off nicely.

[Diequartz]

I was sad I* didn't have that instrumental too! =((( Ah well. Lawl, lemme work on that. mix l and r eh...

[Cloudumort]

This is friggin awesome.. I wish I could sing like you.. expecially in Japanese.. XD I can sing tid bits... but not enough.. XD The only advise I could give is move a bit away from the mic when you hit stronger or louder notes... but that's the only little thing I could give advise to.. XD YOU ROCK. I hope I can sing like you some daaayyy.. :D

...I MUST GO PRACTICE. XD I LOVE YOU.

[Diequartz]

^^ Hehe, thank you!

P/s-I recommend the shower for singing practice!! I use it lots. =P

[Jacutiepie14]

Your voice is so beautiful!!!

[CharlisseAngel]

I love your voice. Chris Crocker gets millions of views for crying over a talentless person like Britney Spears.

You have real talent. I hope that someday you'll become a famous singer.

[Diequartz]

No idea who Chris Crocker is...

Thanks. <3

[SamayaHamed]

Chris Crocker is an gay cross-dresser who is obssessed with Britney Spears and recently got WAY too much publicity. I wonder what our country is going to...Anyways, love your voice. I'd vote for you if you went to try out for American Idol. You'd be a good pop singer.

[SamayaHamed]

Hmm...I think I got off subject here. I don't remember why I posted that. Maybe I was getting to the fact that the good people that need to get more hits are trampled by the retards. Sorry, my previous post doesn't make much sense. Please try to get a record deal! Even if you are trying to become a doctor. You can make music til you are 40ish then start using your doctor's license then. :D It would be a big News Headline. "Famous singer finally starts doctor's career." Oops, went off-topic again

[CalicienLeira]

Sei popo na lagna V_V

[VioletxXxSkies]

Beautiful!! I love it!!!

Great voice!

[MySweetWish]

Omg, you're actually really good O_O

Cute Voice.

[Diequartz]

x3 thanks.

[TheUnexpectedSmile]

Oh my gosh! Ur voice is so pretty. I would love to see you do Tokyo Nights, or Nichiyo no Asa, or This is Love, or even Traveling!

...*moments of silence*...

Sorry, I'm being stupid again, aren't I? I'm sorry, it's just so refreshing to find someone on YouTube who posts up a video of a beautiful song & can actually SING it. U know what I mean?

Well, anyways, all the songs I just named are by Utada Hikaru and I'd really appreciate it if you did one of them whenever you have the time.

[Diequartz]

x3 Nahh, you're not being stupid. I'd love to try them, please check my channel for the request requirements and message me!

[iw1llk1ckj00]

Could you please sing Aozora no Namida? That'd be the best ^^

[Diequartz]

You can check my channel for request requirements and then message me~ thanks!

[Kinoshu]

Yeah well I can fly. BEAT THAT WHO NEEDS MUSIC WHEN I CAN FLY..

...I do.

I hope to see more of your videos. ;D By more I mean I hope someone requests a song I like (a lot) because you're most likely packed with them anyways..and I'm lazy. :D

[Diequartz]

o_o~ LOLZ. What's a song you like?

[Blooddestroyer500]

once again magnificant :D lol yeh i heard the thing that you was talking about where you were off key and all but still You still sang it awesome :D lol

[Diequartz]

Lol, yesh. Thank you for still enjoying. x3

[Kinoshu]

Nice singing, I agree that you were too close to the mic when singing, but I envy you and everybody else who's a girl or can sing well. Why? Because most of the songs I listen to are sung by girls(BoA*, Hikki, etc) and when I sing normally, my voice is too deep, when I try to sing a little higher, it sounds just wayy unnaturally high.

RAWRR.

xD I'm done ranting, once again nice singing.

[Diequartz]

xDD But that's why music is beautiful! There are so many different voices that can bring life and expression to music. <3 Envy is unnecessary. Thank you!

[Kolona1012]

ur soo good :D

[originalcynn]

just had to hear this again

[originalcynn]

i just listened to this again, you have such an innocent voice!!! like a child singing a prayer to God.....very beautiful!

[Diequartz]

Never heard that before.. o_o Thanks~

[originalcynn]

u on msn messenger?

[Diequartz]

No, I'm at a friend's house. My msn is on at home though.

[originalcynn]

wahts the addy i wanna add ya

[originalcynn]

very nice...love it!

[Diequartz]

Thanks.

[DVS00]

you have a great voice i found this just looking around the mic needs to be better that is all.

[Diequartz]

Thank you. =3

[rosiatta]

u sound so cute!!!!!!(i wish i knew wer u get ur karaoke's..) just...beautiful...*feels like on a cloud listening to ur voice*

[Diequartz]

xD Haha.. Thanks again. I get them from the singles.

[vilankz]

I'd love to hear you sing Ai Otsuka's Daisuki Da Yo or Sakuranbo :]

[Diequartz]

x3 Maybe after my requests clear up~ Thanks though!

[vilankz]

:] no problem. looking forward to it 8]

[kerilove]

You are fantastic..I sat here.closed my eyes and listened to your voice..beautiful..I cant speak japanese..although I love their music..but in my opinion..u did a phenomenal job.

[Diequartz]

Aw, thank you!

[Orette]

"fine but is it that you can't pronounce "r" instead you say"L" cause you sang "haluka , milaiwa" instead of "haruka, miraiwa" and you sing too much of [hmms how to say] the AHHhhhHHHhh(using you thorat-to make the sound wave'y) if you don't get it then nevermind[x"

That's how it's supposed to be sung. The Japanese say "r"'s as "l"'s.

Your singing was loud against the mic, so I couldn't listen to it all, but you have a nice voice.

[Diequartz]

Thanks!

[vilankz]

yep, except it's not REALLY that they say the R's as L's, it's something like a mix between the two..

but I agree with your comment at the end. I think you (Diequartz) are too close to the mic or else your voice was too powerful with the music or just..something about your voice was really loud. I also couldn't listen to the song all the way. Though you do have an awesome voice, let's just say this isn't my favorite.

[dotdotdotdoty]

fine but is it that you can't pronounce "r" instead you say"L" cause you sang "haluka , milaiwa" instead of "haruka, miraiwa" and you sing too much of [hmms how to say] the AHHhhhHHHhh(using you thorat-to make the sound wave'y) if you don't get it then nevermind[x

[Diequartz]

Haha, I can pronounce the "r" sound, but I choose to sometimes soften it into the "l" sound to make it easier to sing. Hmm, if I don't use my throat what do you recommend?

[JapanesePrincessYuki]

ur soo gurd to say ur from maliysa ur japanese is better than myne! hehe

[Diequartz]

xD Thanks~ I just read romaji, really...

[GoneCrazy]

I love your utada covers. Nice job!

[Diequartz]

Thanks!

[NanaTaisen]

Great job, I love your Utada Hikaru covers ^_^

[Diequartz]

Thanks! ^^

[KeyToTheLight]

Another amazing Utada cover :D keep up the good work!

[Diequartz]

Thank you!

[pwninkev]

even utada doesnt do the song perfectly on live. You were very good

[Diequartz]

Thank you.

[TadakoXIII]

You do a lot of Utada covers, eh? A handful of her songs aren't that easy to sing -- and neither is this one. But yet again, like that Blue cover, you've accomplished to sing another hard Utada song without sounding utterly bad. I heard a few mistakes, but nothing terribly horrible enough to point out. I applaud you.

[TadakoXIII]

--continuation-- Also, maybe this wasn't the best of your performance, as some other people said but this was a tough song. It takes skill to sing this song well, which i think you did.

[Diequartz]

Thank you very much. =3

[ColorfulYetDull]

Hi!

Remember me?

I hope you do!

Cuz i'm in love

with your sining!

lol

[Diequartz]

I do remember you! ^^ Thanks for coming back to check out this cover.

[milicus]

You Have nice voice and it's my favourite song ^^You did well

[Diequartz]

Thanks!

[aznswtheartx215]

nicee job.

[Diequartz]

Thank you~

[uruhax5o4]

Your singing is really beautiful. I love your voice , You sing amazingly great . ^^

[Diequartz]

Thanks. ^^

[Jushkabob]

Eeh, it's a very nice cover but yeah, it wasn't up to standard. <<; I worded that wrong. Still, it's a very nice cover.

[Diequartz]

No worries. x3 Thanks!

[Anarnee]

Yay, one of my favorites <3 You did well.

[Jushkabob]

<--continued-->

hmm, some of your latest videos aren't up with your previous ones. I can hear you breathing on the microphone a little bit during the video. Maybe you should put some mesh/pantyhose material between you and the microphone when you sing to prevent your breath from hitting the microphone.

[Diequartz]

Sorry to have disappointed you~ ^^ I never thought of the mesh idea! Shall do that. Aren't up with my previous ones? You mean up to standard?

[Jushkabob]

Honors for This Video:

#62 - Most Discussed (Today) - Music

You seem to sing from your nose which makes it a bit nasally but Ai Otsuka's and Shiina Ringo's nasally voice is what I love about them. Maybe you could sing less with your nose and maybe it'd sound a bit better. This isn't one of your best covers...

[JuanCSJ]

Finally you made this cover, awesome work, but there is leaving Hikari or Simple or Clean. You have very but very good voice. Congratulations

[hikari71192]

i agree with iamkagome. you did well, especially for this song. =)

[Merijonna]

this is amazing

[iamkagome]

It wasn't bad at all, thats a really difficult song and i think you pulled it off good

[pointlessdayzz]

Too nasal for my liking, not your best. Good try though.

[BlueMeadow21]

sorry but I'm somehow a bit disappointed. Your other performances are way better than this one.

[chibiwolf9]

You have an awesome voice! Keep it up! ^^ However, I did notice that you seemed to be short of breath some of the time.If you focus on your breathing more you may be able to reach some lower notes and be able to sing it more slowly. But, awesome job nonetheless! xD

[Diequartz]

x3 I had some issues with my throat/nose... Minorly plugged. Butyesh! I agree. ^^ Thank you!

[chibiwolf9]

Yup! ^^

[AznIntegra521]

Yay Jade, this was a great cover and i love this song. Hmm... i'm gonna have to get this song. But i love how ur voice sounded on this song. It was great.

[Diequartz]

Lol, thanks. ^^

[iganooboro]

good singer Rin (￣∇￣)

[Diequartz]

Thank you!

[Tallonest]

Very nice. x)

[Diequartz]

Thanks!
