Everyone's taste is different ok,but there is no denying that he is a great singer (one of the best in a while). Listen to his changes in keys so smoothly, his timing,transitions, arrangement you will know this is not easy to do. His passion pours out in the song-so powerful. He is bad! too many so called artist today who are singing n have their voices altered via the computer so many young folks don't know what real sanging is!.I know good sanging and Amir is it.
YUMYUM, well said! I agree with you. Amir has the raw passion, emotions and sincerity to make this song even more touching and hauntingly BEAUTIFUL! That man can SANG!
i am sorry i just listened to Airto's version, (He is a very good singer) but there was not feelings in the song. His arrangement was ok, but in my opinion, it was not his best. Sorry if I offend you but that is how I see it. I do respect your opinion.
Wow!!! This guy can SANG! We need more singers aroung like this around again. This new stuff don't have much meaning to it. Some body needs to sign this guy.
Amir did a great job in this performance. I saw this episode...I thought it was wonderful!! Great voice....needed a little more showmanship like if he sang it to Monique..would have seemed a little more of the manly thing to do...but was very into his own performance. Overall..Great.
He sounds horrible! Of course Donny's version is the BEST! but Whitney's does a good job too. The passion has to build in the song, and I felt that he sings it too strong from beginning to end.
I do have it from the beginning. It is 58mega Bytes and I keep running into problems when I try to upload it. i will try again tho. he is soooooooo talented. i really love this version of the song, tremendously!
Yea, he's good. Everyone doesn't HAVE TO SING Like the original....Every singer has there OWN interpretation of a song. He can sing though. I think he would have did better if he chose another one though.
So, you liked it, yes? Give the man his props,(propz) right? I personally LOVED it! That man can "sang". I'd buy his records! I can't say enough positive things about Amir's rendition of this song. Yes, Donny Hathaway created it and I still love Donny's voice, but Amir signed, sealed and delivered this performance, BIG TIME!
Thats not passion. Its forced. Nobody can beat Donny Hathaways. You dont have to sing loud and big to have passion or emotion. Its not what the songs about... Donny hathaway gets the song better i think.. In saying that.. this guy does a better job than i'll ever be able to do cause he is a good singer!!
I've always LOVED Donny Hathaway,especially his song "This Christmas". I would love to see/hear a video performance of Donny Hathaway singing A Song For You, here on YouTube, but I didn't find one. if you know of somewhwere on the web where a person can hear Donny's own version of A Song For You, then please post that weblink in a reply. i'd appreciate it!
Also if you listen closely, you can hear my parror Kia rapping in there backgroung at the very beginning
No one can beat Donny. The soul and strength in his voice can not be duplicated. Many have tried to be like him, but there is only One donny and he is the best.
And I'm sorry but not even whitney can beat him. But she has a wonderful voice. And she does her music well.
Furthermore, I enjoyed Amir's interpretation of this particular song and I believe that he has great talent. His voice is beautiful, simply beautiful.
Wow, we certainly have divergent opinions! I LOVE this performance. It ignited my soul, touched my spirit and brought tears, literally TEARS to my eyes! I can listen to this over and over. The pure unadulterated passion, energy and fire in his voice, even in his body language during the song! His talent is phenomenal! Awesome!
You are a hater and u are such a mess anyone in their right mind would appreciate this song cause he can sing no one could actually sing like he does and by the way songs with passion are the best songs!!!
Unbeleivable i have not heard that song so well sung since donnie hathaway! He took it to another level. Why is he not making records? AMAZING !!!!!!!!!!1
This is on iTunes now, check it out. Amir- a song for you.
