it's my first time to chance upon your videos and i'm liking them so much! i just can't stop hearing all ur music..ur good with the covers but i like when u do ur originals. ur a great artist! i know you'll grow even more as a musician. keep on doing great music! proud to be pinoy!
Hi AJ! You did such a soulful version of this song. It's full of longing, just like it was meant to be. Lovely rendition. I posted a video response to your version, since I covered it myself. Not nearly as soulful as yours, but it's my own take on it. PLease check it out! If you like what you hear, feel free to subscribe as well!
Goosebumps........ This is one of my favorite Christmas songs. EVER. I can hear the Michael Buble inspiration in it as well. I am a huge fan of big band and swing music. You performed this song very well. You have a lot of talent. I am sure we will see your name in lights soon.
This is my FAVORITE Christmas song! And you played and sang it brilliantly! I'd totally have this on my iPod :) Awesome job, and awesome piano accompaniment <3
man, he doesnt sound like michael buble. buble got that weird but nice nasally sound that sounds cool. but aj here got that R&B flavor of a voice with filipino accents in some parts haha we all do no matter how long u lived in america for. But either way the song was greatly executed. Awesome
and you're really good with michael buble songs too! anddd you're really good at the piano too, lol you seem well experienced at it.. im just curious how long have you been playing??
hey i used a book called 'christmas songs' from the company 'budget books', but i just used it as a lyric and chord reference... i pretty much improvised this whole thing, sorry =[ its just the same arrangement you can find anywhere with a little aj flava to it i guess? im sorry again..
That's was really nice! How did you learn how to accompany yourself on the piano? Did your teacher teach you how to play like that? Do you also play solo piano without singing?
Hey, im about 3,000+ miles away from my family in the Navy, going on deployment early next year and i will be down for Christmas..just wanted to tell you that you did this song very well..sounded very heart-felt, brought a tear to my eye..good stuff, l8r
thank you so much for doing this! i actually requested this of you @ myspace, and i'm glad you did it... i'll post it in my friendster too! :) very lovely...:)
Hey, we musta been on the same page. I did a little of this song this morning. Wish I coulda played it on piano. Great job man. you're one of my youtube favorites.
