#Charice - Somewhere Over the Rainbow (First Solo in America: BIG-E) 18-Sept 2009

[BreakPics]

her band sucks! but she really pulled it off

[maeshin19]

im big fan of chariceeeee but in my opinion its more better if she sing original song

[Leapfroging]

Lover her version!!!

[dcaligan1990]

Wow! ! ! Great live performance.! ! !

[fernandadauphine]

oh god, it was about time someone made a rendition to McPhee's version!, I'm so glad this amazingly talented girl looks up to Katharine. Personally I like Katharine's voice's color better, but Charice's voice is more meticulously studied and worked that Katherine's, didn't think that was possible. 

[darthsanzodius]

goosebumps goosebumps goosebumps..... =D

[kalabiandarkness]

Sounded like KARAOKE.

[joanlupian]

@kalabiandarkness lets see you do better then

[kalabiandarkness]

@joanlupian It's not required to do better to judge someone. Just like Simon Cowell. And I'm a guitarist not singer BTW.

[lillmikey13]

This girl is amazing. Now I'vewatched a few videos of her singing now and I still always find a problem with how she ends the song. Her ending isn't what it should be. But besides that, bravo.

[aneekynunu]

she should have sung this with out her band she would have been EVEN BETTER

[ummjt]

This song belongs to Eva Cassidy unfortunately for Charice.

[mkjest]

Guys just stop comnparing Cherice to Miley.. they're both great on their rights.. Miley is a Country singer and she has different style to Cherice. However cherice by far has greater range, and is very very versatile..

[MrsNecy]

ang mukha ng maestro ayun lookin at charice, nyahaha.

[kikomemi]

ooooh! feeling.......

[0kuChiki0]

She looks struggling BECAUSE OF THAT STUPID BAND BEHIND HER WHO'S SABOTAGING HER!!!! stupid BAND! THEY NEED TO BE FIRED!!! She has an awesome voice but that stupid band ruined it!

[babyboytoyblue]

Imagine an angel singing to the sky... Longing to get back to heaven. Sounds sad yet hopeful. There would be a tear on her cheek but smiling all along. I think this is what that angel sounds like...

[hazelh0814]

nakakaiyak naman tong rendition nya ng kantang to bwiset!

[irogisgone]

we pinoys are so proud of you...God bless us pinoys always...

[marcos39325]

[marcos39325]

sobra ang galing at ganda ng boses ng little princess natin o,kaya iyong contoctor nanuod nalang habang kumu kumpas ang kamay, pati banda natulala kay charice

[sabriyah03]

[Crs93]

Her personality is warm and nice ^__^ And plus her talents, she's amazing xD

I think she can sing any genre she wants to because that's her passion and well, she's capable of singing big songs xDDDD Love the rendition =3

[SweetdonnaSTL]

follow charice on twitter. Her official twitter is OfficialCharice

[Bongonightfly]

She's on glee now!!!

[daiell09]

I'm sorry, but it sounded like she was struggling with the high notes

[CCBaby]

@daiell09 You must be deaf!

[daiell09]

@CCBaby No honey I aint deaf. I can hear when someone is struggling with a high note. Learn how to take constructive criticism.

[Darrensafc01]

@daiell09 watch her sing one moment in time on asap and then apologise for making this stupid comment. 

[daiell09]

@Darrensafc01 Its not a stupid comment and that will not change my opinion. I seen her sing that and I didnt like that either. The only ones I liked was I have nothing and my heart will go on.

[atcroccas]

@daiell09 : she is sitting on that stool. know anybody who sings that high sitting?

[daiell09]

@atcroccas What does that have to do with anything?

[BBQ092506]

@atcroccas . It's not a rarity in my country (Philippines) to sing while sitting. One of Charice's local hero Regine Velasquez, sang her high notes while suspended on air by wires, in her concert in 2000, long before Pink did it at the Grammys this year. She is the champion-singer known to have started belting in our country.Another local singer, Lani Misalucha, sang while lying on her back in one of her concert.

[dennis28mco]

@daiell09 well it sounds like your ear has problems. go fuck yourself you shitface bitch

[mundarri]

@daiell09 of course it sounded like she's struggling. She designed her voice to sound like she was struggling . It's an artistic style to make the impact more interesting. Imagine if she sing all the high notes of all her songs in a lazy manner people will surely get bored to death even if she can always hit those notes. It's all a matter of marketing. People has to feel that she worked hard to deliver the song. All get excited by the struggle and victory once she hits those high notes.

[daiell09]

@mundarri Okay

[CCBaby]

Love this girl beyond belief1

[WebScribes]

A little 17 year-old sitting on a stool at a fair singing her heart out - what a magical moment!

.

Oprah was so right to say Charice "is the most talented girl in the World"

[cookiesarehappy]

wtf is wrong with the audience?!!! why in hell are they so dead? if i was there i would have been cheering my ass off cause shes sounds so good!! especially at 3:28-3:57

[martarosales]

i love her personality.

[edreah05]

i think this is one of charice's best performances!! remove the band and she can still carry it with flying colors.. what a talent =)

[didithmusic]

[7DeusExMachina]

What can I say...I like the song very much and most specially the performace!

Superb performance!

[manette153]

follow charice on her new twitter @TrueCharice

[WebScribes]

@^:^@ I figured it out!! . Charice is a Mutant Ninja Diva (MND)

♥ Mutant: obviously some sane scientist injected Mommy Racquel with DNA from Celine, Whitney, Leah & Mariah with a bit of MJs just for good measure. What a unique combination of qualities.

♥ Ninja: Michael Buble said it best no matter how good you are, Charice will kick your butt.

♥ Diva: not just "a distinguished woman singer," but D for Delight.

LovYa

[pangitmancuteparin]

NICE ONE LOL.. ! goo gooo charice.. :)

[mel5932]

@webscribes: LOL.. Thanks for your comments. How right you are! Charice, an MND! ha ha ha ha LOL

[skeezer115]

that band is embarassing.. follow charice's tempo. sounds like they never rehearsed with her before

[kukurukuru21]

Charice is a hybrid of Leah Salonga, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Regine Velasquez, Heart and MYMP.

[oneviwatara]

The drummer and Maestro are suck so bad.

[user7502]

[Frisco255]

Exceptional talent!

[1manofpeace]

Listening to Charice's soothing and amazing voice has been taking two hours (at least) of my sleeping time.

It is worth it. Listening to her sing and seeing her sweet, innocent face is like resting!

[MrDiegodaddy]

whew! listening to your voice singing is breathtaking! go Charice! you are moving my soul!

[yeaheee1]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!

[8jerboa]

Ohhh Charice, what a delightful translation! You're truly a world songbird. Everytime I listen to you singing, I tend to forget the names of other singers in the world-you just captured my heart and soul in every spand of songs you rendered-carrying me always accross countless rainbrow bridges. Every song with you is like an awesome journey accross rainbow bridge-a musical experience of a lifetime and I'll never get tired of this journey with you. Thanks a lot.

[McTomaso]

Doing this Barbra Streisand song...its a challenge....at her age Cha just does it....and she gets away with it.....after all this popular stuff.....just thrilled for the next surprise of Cha......can you do "memories" of Streisand maybe.....after doing Beyonce and Alicia keys....whats next....Cha is the next generation !

[czielleanne]

nkakainis panira mga musicians parang hindi ngpractice anu b yan! kaya pati si charice nawawala sa concentration sa pag kanta, sya pa nag ku-cue sa nag co-conduct! ung drummer naman wala sa timing mag counting and wala sa beat wala bang metronome n gamit yang mga yan?? parang d professionals.. I LOVE CHARICE pero sorry nkakasira ung musicians nya!!!! inis for sure si David Foster nyan!

[dessam2]

e khit nmn lata lng gamitin ky charice, wlng problema! kya nyang dalhin. her voice is enough!!!

[legendcha]

Perfect Pitch!!!

[StrawberryDoctor]

OMG!! Charice you should record this song. Your version is spectacular and I've never heard anybody sing this song with a strong powerful voice esp. the crescendo part. I love it!!!

[rachell0601]

I love it!!!! nice version Charice ^-^ wow!!!! it's just the people are too noisy...but Charice did really a great job ...keep it up girl !!!

[merger2]

30th time i've listened to this...never feel tired.

[kklaudia20]

oh my gosh!!!! Simon Cowell should see this.... really blown away!!!!

[StrawberryDoctor]

@Fabilioh9

Willie Revillame? Oprah of the Philippines??? No waaay!!! Are you kidding me??!! He doesn't even come close! It would be an insult to Oprah. Opportunista lang siya para tumaas rating ng Wowowee, bakit nung di pinapansin si Charice sa ABS-CBN, tinulungan niya ba o pinag-guest sa Wowowee? Di naman di ba??!Bakit nanuod ba siya ng concert ni Charice sa Manila? Lahat ng alam ni Charice ay natutunan niya unang una sa Mommy niya at kay DF n Oprah. Kay willie WALA!!

[deemortiz]

the answer is yes. Willie had Charice, Sam ,Mycha, Makisig and Kyle at his show early on. It was after the conclussion of the LBS contest. She was about 13 then. In that show Willie was favoring Charice because she lost the LBS contest.

[mismaganda]

love this! very soothing!!

[PrimeA2]

This is actually near Eva Cassidy's version. Although I have not heard of Katharine McPhee's version.

[rodgebill2007]

wow ang galing naman

[ilovecharice]

TheJoey279: The version of 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' sung by Charice is by Katharine McPhee as arranged and sung in American Idol. This arrangement is not the same version sung by Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz. This is what Charice meant when she said 'popularized' by Katharine McPhee. I think everyone knows that Judy Garland first made this song popular in The Wizard of Oz about 70 years ago .

[TheJoey279]

OMG, did she say "popularized by Katherine McFee? Whatever happened to Judy Garland? The Wizard of Oz has an upcoming one-day engagement on Theaters nationwide (USA). Charice and her fans are well advised to watch the movie so faux pas like this remark will be avoided in the future.

[BagatelleinAMinor]

Every American from age 5 up knows Wizard of Oz, Judy Garland, and Somewhere Over the Rainbow. This is deeply embeded into American culture. Don't show your ignorance with stupid remarks like that.

[smilebeebs]

12222e2!

REPORT nyo file nya or block nyo para di makasilip or makapag comment sa mga vids na kumakalat..INIINOM nya ata BLEACH ...AT MAY paka NGONGO..PUNYEMAS nagpapakisikat lang yan eh di pasikatin natin...

[arpee1686]

god.. i thought catherine mcfee's version is high.. then i heard this girl sang this song... damn! she sang higher on some notes specially at.. 3:28-3:56.

[arpee1686]

sooothing...

[hoz49]

She CAN fly, she can SOAR!

[joyzrc]

very good rendition!!!!

[ttbayo]

wow !!!!combination of jazz melodies w/ this rendition your a phenomenal singer .bravo..................

[shanddysnanny]

So refreshing and relaxing..Charice's passion for music never cease to amaze the life of me. It doesn't even matter if the band is good or not. Anyway give the band a credit. Show a bit of class, kapwa Filipino. Charice is love in the US, please have a bit of class.

[irishan21]

guys DONT support catherine loria!

sya yung pinapasikat ni 12222e2!

anak ata sya ni 12222e2 eh!!!!

pag support nyo si catherine loria parang sinuportahan nyo na rin si 12222e2!

ang tactic nyan ni 12222e2 para pasikatin si catherine ay manira ng manira kay charice!

12222e2 bakit buhay ka pa? isa kang salot sa mundo!!! sana kunin ka na ni satanas na kalahi mo!!!

[ttbayo]

WOW !!!!You sound fantastic your voice is like riding on a roller coaster w/a lot of loops.

[PromisesAchiever]

er...jal joshua isnt good..why did you say he was-jjsamms61-although, I think the original singer herself may be best suited to the song.Her name is Doris Day. But I think Charice's is one of my top best versions as well.

[kikaypac]

ohh i can sleep smiling....

[hermiemel]

She painted this song with a "fresh" coating of feelings & emotions. Charice - everything that she touches turns into something wonderful and beautiful.

[maria10b]

My Goodness Gracious, a musical angel has landed. If you close your eyes when she's singing you can feel musical notes flying around you, coming at you one by one so powerful, so sweet that leaves you gasping for more. Oh! Charice, wonderful you are!

[ttbayo]

grabe ang ganda ng kanya rendition sa kantang ito .......................nakakai­nlove tuloy sa wife kong 23 years na kaming magkasasma.

[ecj011357]
