[atgblue1]

Hey Niko! Um are you singing along to an track that is in the original key ? jw because the original sounds like he goes up a bit higher on a couple parts. So just wondering if that is just pitch or something or if your track is indeed in a lower key? Also, where did you get the track?

[karasashanna]

Your voice has this some kinda "Kris Allen-feel", but not all the time. Nice!:)

[LollaaProductions]

wauw you're so good ! i love it xoxo

awesome job! i wish i could sing like you, but my talents lie elsewhere. i hope u'll still put up the video where u dont get your drink on. haha

[NikoJaquez]

AHH i'm totally excited for GLEE!!! I wish i was on that show that would be awesome lol. But yeah I'll try and do one sober hahaha

[Courtney6592]

@NikoJaquez thats on tonight =) good job!

[superstar977]

your a really good singer

[S3Rg101313]

dude u were not singing

were u??

[NikoJaquez]

lol ummm yes??? it sure wasn't my friend jehdiah hahaha. lol but yeah that's me =]

[S3Rg101313]

well ur pretty goood keep it going

i hope i get good as u haha NO HOMO

[NikoJaquez]

what's with the "NO HOMO" ???

[S3Rg101313]

well when i typed it

and read it it sounded kinda homo

so i typed no homo lol

[billabongmnkyboy]

Great voice but simply because I am so use to the Jon McLaughlin voice, anyone else who sings it just sounds odd to me. But let me make a request for a song cover. Can you try singing Jay Sean's song called "Down"? But that "No homo" thing is usually used when a guy says something like "I Love you, man!" and then they immediately follow it up with a "but no homo" afterward. Something like that...

[NikoJaquez]

HAHA I know what you mean, it's like listening to someone try and sing a Mariah Carey song, you compare it so much that you just wanna tune it out because you just can't be like that singer. And yeah I was like what's this no homo thing lol. Thanks for clarifying. And i'll check out that song and if i end up recording it i'll say you requested it =] lol

[yaoiloveret]

my new found drug

[shanaynay45]

Beautiful! You remind me of David Archuleta in a way! You have great riffs! Just remember to pull the mic away on the louder and higher notes to balance the sound out. You have a great voice!  Lovin the Malibu shot!!! Get some more videos up!!!!

[NikoJaquez]

haha yeah i had a good buzz goin on haha, but yeahi'm trying to get more videos up. I have a video of me singing amazed at another competition but i'm debating whether or not to put it up.

[shanaynay45]

You should definitely put it up! I bet you rock that song!

cute...i like it : ]

[saliormoomoo]

I <3 you! wow

[8enchanted8]

You're amazing.

[wickedfan5172]

i think you riff to much. mainly in the begining. sometimes it sounds better if you sing it normally. It also sounds like you're shouting at times. this is a ballad. Think about how its sung in the movie and what setting it's in. picture yourself in that scene when your singing the song. you do have a lot of potential. good luck.

[kutekizzez]

my last name is jaquez too!

[CloShake]

Your Really Good =] x

[gracehfung]

wait who's singing? the dude holding the camera?

[NikoJaquez]

No it's me , the one behind the mic singing lol. We sound different when we sing lol, but yeah that's my best friend holding the camera, we get bored so we record each other some times.

[ZoolanderDZ]

I can't stop repeating this video! I love your cover! You and your friend need to do a duet! You guys have amazing voices. Keep it up! I'm subscribing! Five stars! =)
