[MephistoClub]

Absolutely amazing young talented singer..im ssooo jealous a pleasure to listen to :-)

[cutekirsty21]

Again That Was Too misspeckpeck Lol

[1MILLIONyrsBC]

mimic? 13 yrs old xtina aguillera sang whitneys's 'i have nothing' @ MMC. it's common for young gilrs to sing big songs to show their range..that doesn't mean they are juz mimics. give charice a break... her version of 'i have nothing' is even more powerful than that of xtina, and she did it sitting down. this girl is amazing!

[sweetchick919]

pretty talented..

to those who hate charisse,

it's just that your a bunch of envious people.. xp

[happydhee]

holy cow! wer the hell on eath did she learn to see like that...

[cutekirsty21]

Well i'm Sorry That You Carn;t Hear Or See .. Its Yoor Bad Luck And You Missed Out On Her ... And To Be Honest None Of Us Needed To Even Know That ... Yoo Probably Aint Even Real And JUst For The Record Most Of Us Actually Love Her And Thats Why People Are Paying For Her To Go Around The COuntry And Be Watched .. Tahts All i'M Saying

[cutekirsty21]

BTW The Comment Below Was Too CliveDavisRCARecords

[saziiee7]

Just three letters...O M G !...x

[27850]

Well bless her soul!

[alyecey]

that is rude and she can sing exceptionally good and unique and ppl with masculine voice can go far..ie tonie braxton, whitney houston and an opinion of music has nohing to do with education al all so i am not sure who the uneducated one is as ones music opinion represents nothing but sheer opinion so it doesnt concern you at all

[Vamoalla]

Let's put it this way: In a professional ballet company, take ABT, EVERYONE in that company dances very very well. But there are dancers who dance in the corps de ballet, doing the group numbers. They are excellent, but they aren't great. The word "great" is reserved for the ones who achieve soloist and prime status.

Understand?

[TrueMe08]

I agree with misspeckpeck.

[misspeckpeck]

To TrueMe08: This must be a miracle! At long last, somebody with a real music sense visited this web site, found my comment and agreed with me!! There is s GOD!!

[cutekirsty21]

Umm Excuse Me Hunni Misswoodpecker Who Do You Think You Are .. Just Cuz Yoor Jealous ... And Who Are Yoo .. Yoo An=int Nooo Fancy Record Company And Besides Everyone On Here Thinks Shes Great !!! And BTW Yoo Must Be Uneducated Because Shallow Doesn't Mean What Yoo Obviously Think It Means Alryt ... And Trust Me We Dont Need Too Be Educated Too Know If Someone Has An Amazing Voice

Kapish

[dlfunky]

she needs to develop more her own style but at 14 wtf? she is unbelivavble! the only person i know that was that good at that age was whitney and look what happened to her!

[wmg25]

vamoalla...your crazy...so what if she sings other people songs..in american idol they dont sing orignal songs...shut up or else i will put chili in your mouth....

[ghelle1ghen]

lol! you guys are funny, and yet am upset... what do you care if she immitates over singers? have you never ever even tried to!? back when you were a child? how old is she anyways? 15 right? do what's wrong with you... in ur tone ur being racist!!!! fuck song fuck music dont ever mess with us...!!!! you're being very mean what do you care if people immitate people? that's how its goes so just, bear with it... coz, u can do nothing bout it!!!

[Vamoalla]

Puerto Rican's have plena, rhumba, salsa...Cuban have son, Dominican's have merengue and bachata, Argentinos have tango.

See what I'm getting at?

[Vamoalla]

The problem with filipino singers is that they are imitators instead of innovators. Sounds like she hits exactly the same notes as Whitney Houston does when she sings the song. The only difference is that it's a filipino singing it. But does that make it special? No. Not in the least.

[Jacey925]

It means she's 15 and that when she's older she'll sing her own songs. This song show's shes got the voice for it.

Talk about a racist comment.

[Vamoalla]

No, just being real.

Immitators are a dime a dozen.

[Jacey925]

maybe, but do all of them have voices that are THAT good?

I'm 100% positive that this girl could handle an original song just as well as she handles a song like this. And it's not an easy song to sing either.

And it's one thing to label someone an immitator. It's another to label a race of people as immitators.

[Vamoalla]

Uh yeah...many many with voices that good.

I live in Los Angeles. There are alot of people that can sing that good that will never get anywhere. Why? Many reasons. Two big ones....Because they lack their own original style, and they can't aren't good songwriters and don't have access to good songwriters.

[Jacey925]

Ok, fair enough. But I Will Always Love You is a hard song to hit the right notes on. EXACTLY the right notes on. And she's only 15. She's got years to prove herself.

And that still doesn't address the fact that you were blatently racist.

[Vamoalla]

I think Leann Rhymes...or however you spell her name was younger than that when she was discovered.

Age has very little to do with it.

Neither does your perception of me as a racist.

What this girl does with her voice is no different than someone putting on a fedora and a white glove and doing their best Michael Jackson impression. Folks might be impressed with it, but the impersonator is never going to be famous doing what they're doing.

[Jacey925]

The majority of famous singers start off singing other peoples songs.What about Eva Cassidy?That woman could SING. She sang amazingly & she died before she had the opportunity to sing her own stuff.

Charice is 15 (& yes, age does have something to do with it.People mature at different rates.People find success at different ages) she's got plenty of time to find her own place in the world of music.

My perception, as you put it, of you being racist, is correct.

Cnt. int eh next comment

[Vamoalla]

Eva Cassidy is a perfect example of what I mean. She sang other people's songs, so not so impressive. An argument can be made that if she hadn't died a tragic death from cancer, she would still be wallowing in oscurity.

[Jacey925]

Except her voice was amazing. And she brought her own style and voice to those songs. I've never heard Fields of Gild sung as well as Eva sang it.

You could be right. If she'd lived, she might have continued to go between Jazz/Blues clubs and just sing other peoples songs. But, she might have etched her own space out in the world of music. We'll never know. Just like, at this point in time, we don't know where Charice will be in the future.

[Vamoalla]

Look at what Norah Jones does with a tune. She takes someone else's song and makes it her own. Eva Cassidy didn't really. Cassandra Wilson does the same thing, many others.

Then you'll get schlocks like Michael Bolton who sing a someone else's tune, and not as well, and you have to ask, "What's the point?"

[wmg25]

dont compare her to norah jones dumbass..or who ever you mentioned...she is young i bet those artist you mentioned they also sing other people songs when they were little..so stop commenting stupid shit...it dont make sense...

[Vamoalla]

she's not 8 years old. She's in her teens. She is a mimic. Not an artist.

get over it.

No originality in her singing. No originality in your post.

[sonnyboi83]

she haven't got a recording contract yet n have no release CD, how do u xpect her to come on tv shows with "new" song?

[BarbaronaGianni]

Vamoalla is right: Charice Pekpek Ko is not an artist, she is just a cheap impersonator. I don't think any respectable songwriter will write a song for her, and she obviously can't write her own songs. Her "belting" is not music-making -- it is noise-making. Tell that little girl to shut the fuck up already, OK?!! I am starting to be very ashamed that she is a Filipina! Foreigners might think that all Filipinos sing that way -- sooooo very cheap!!!

[Jacey925]

You stated that "The problem with Filipino singers is that they are imitators instead of innovators".

That's like me saying "The problem with Americans is that they're racists and bigots, instead of being loving, accepting people."

It's making a sweeping statement about a population of people, instead of the (possibly) one person who deserves the comment.

[Vamoalla]

No, I'm just making an observation. They sing other people's songs. Even if it is as good as the original, so what? It isn't the original so what is the point. If they had a different take on the song....changed the timing. Turned a pop tune into a reggae, whatever....THEN maybe you might have something. They don't even have their own music! They only immitate Americans!

[Jacey925]

Oh honey, you poor poor uncultured person.

Please tell me that you're not saying that the Filipino people don't have their own music. Have you ever been there? Have you ever experience a culture other than your own? They absolutely have their own style of music. It probably isn't the kind you'd listen to. All countries in the world immitate other styles of music. And hon, pop/rock isn't just American. A lot of it originated in the UK, and other parts of the world. Do your research.

[Vamoalla]

uncultured? lol

Believe me Jacey, I can identify more forms of music based on a few bars than you can even imagine.

Tarantos, tientos, siguiriya, solea

Without looking it up, do you even know what all of those are? I doubt it. Would you be able to identify any of them, from hearing a few bars of any of them? i doubt it even more.

[Jacey925]

And yet you think that Filipinos have no music of their own?

[Vamoalla]

Sure, but it's relegated to folk music.  It doesn't inform their contemporary culture.

[Jacey925]

Many cultures only have traditional folk music, before they branch out to other cultures music. It doesn't mean that they're immitating, it just means that they're borrowing a style and making it their own.

Look at the western world. Most pop, rock etc, music is essentially the same. It follows the same formulas. So who's immitating who? Are we immitating America, or is America immitating us?

[anika823]

the point is.. she is a very good singer.. 10 million x better than you ,, and 100 x better of your idol. LOL

[BarbaronaGianni]

I am a Filipino too , but I have to agree with Vamoalla that Charice Pengpengco is just a fluke. She really has no real talent except singing in a loud voice. Any idiot can do that. And she and her ugly mother is so aggressive and so "sipsip" to David Foster, so I think David Foster just felt sorry for them and invited her to his show in Las Vegas. There is really nothing special about the singing "ability" of this girl, if you can call it "ability". My dog can "sing" better than her.

[ezzm0ke]

sumbagay ta? karun dayun

[isabelbongosia]

oh my God i love this girl when she was simging on tv contest with (sarah geronimo show or something)...and now i cant believe it..goodluck Charice

fLgurl

[jballos]

[gongskie08]

[BarbaronaGianni]

Ang bobobo na talaga ng mga tao sa Pilinas ngayon! And *YOU* gongskie08 is a perfect example!! Hindi na yata talaga aasenso and Pilipinas! Kulelat na lang palagi!!!

[18skyblue]

shame on you barbaronaGianni, your sacks!... your not a real filipino, your one of those w/ a crab mentlity. Your not happy if your fellow filipino's are successful. Shame on you...

[indong21]

oo nga,sa parents ni charisse sana pag isipan ninyo ng mabuti. kung anu ang ikagaganda ng career niya sayang ang chance na sumikat siya sa ibang bansa kay sa dito.ang dami ng singer dito.kaya doon na lang siya sa ibang bansa, chance niya nito...good luck sa career ni charise sana malayo pa ang marating niya.proud kami sa kanya as her fans here in cebu.God Bless you and your family...^^,

[dinggoy2]

Your "the best" Charisse, watched the video maybe hundred times. I am proud of you. God Bless.

[stdominic3]

i've sen her sing the first time when she was like 7 or 8 yrs old in a noontime show in the philippines and my first impression was OMG whos the little whitney houston, shes gonna make it big someday.she even got whitneys neck moving side to side mannerisms when she sings.i hope she'll never turned out like "BANIG" in the end.

[comoestas25]

i love the latest duet of charisse with lena park,,its like dolly parton and whitney houston having a duet....great..watch it on false voice clip.dec.29'07..on star king.she was invited again

[enjokosai14]

yah.. tama... pera lng habol ng abs s knya.. they only using the fame of chjarice.,.. sayang... to charice MOM: if i were you.. think many times bago ka umayon sa gusto ng star records.. hindi ba obvious nuon p n di nila poinanalo c charice s little big star.. kxe deyu tot c sam sisikat.. eh d nmn ..

so nagyon sikat na anak mo... gagawin nmn nila ssmantalahin nila ung fame ni charice para s knila mapunta ung pera n dpat sa inyong pamilya...

[dingding4]

she's way better than sarah, sheryn,rachel and other young singers in the philippines..

[stdominic3]

theres no comparison between sarah and charice they both have very strong voices.i love them both.the most important thing is they are both filipinos.FILIPINOS rock lol.

[graysky2309100]

part 1: I, prophet graysky, predict the following events on Charice Pempengco's career:

1) That despite the overwhelming praises of the crowd in the foreign territories, she will remain as a local act here in RP with the ropes of ABS CBN,

2) That with this lucrative opportunities for the child, ABS CBN hopes

to reap riches from the outside world,

[elliculucille]

I do agree with you...ABS CBN is very good on jerking off some talented people's career...instead of letting them sore into higher and wider grounds ... they keep them within their fences...TO CHARICE'S PARENTS PRAY AND THINK BEFORE YOU LET YOUR DAUGHTER GET INTO ANY COMMITMENT...GOD BLESS CHARICE AND MAY YOU KEEP HER FROM VULTURES OF OUR MUSIC INDUSTRY.

[graysky2309100]

part 2:

3) That through their music label, STAR RECORDS, she will make albums,

4) That those albums will comprise covers and pieces made by local composers,

5) That she will appear in many ABS CBN shows and maybe, she will make her own series,

6) That she will get the number 1 spot on MYX charts,

[graysky2309100]

part 3:

7) That her fame will soon fade because of the missed opportunities

offered by the foreign markets complicated by her tie with ABS CBN,

8) That she will be then categorized with the likes of Erik Santos,

Mark Bautista, Christian Bautista, Sarah Geronimo, Rachel Ann Go, who were once popular through their exposures via talent shows but soon slowly faded because the people went bored...

9) That she will be not known anymore and will only have gigs on clubs and town fiestas,

[graysky2309100]

part 4:

10) That ABS CBN will soon realize that she's not cashing in anymore for

the company and will just leave her hanging dry, wasted and used...

UNLESS, ABS CBN WILL PROVE ME WRONG...

PROVE ME WRONG YOU M***** F******* COMPANY! LEAVE THE CHILD ALONE.

LET HER GET WHAT SHE DESERVES. YOU IGNORED HER NOT ONLY ONCE.

FREE THE LIL' BIRD AND LET HER SOAR!

[stephierockz18]

FUCK out ABS-CBN let charice go! wala xang mapapaLa d2 sa pinas..nanjan na oppurtunity to become famous all over the worLd kukunin nu pa sa kanya! di lng nmn para ky charice ang benefits eh..it's 4 all the fiLipino din! we wiLL be very proud if we see kababayan natin who wiLL made out that far! DAMN.. think about it ABS..wag maging SELFISH kapakanan nu lng iniisip nu! PLEASE let her go, let her dreams totaLLy comes true...

[charvinGFORCE]

may contract pa xa.... and please, wag nmn nating matahin ang abscbn.... MAY CONTRACT pa xa.... let it be finished...and it depends on her to decide...

[tinastaana]

To: whiteandpurple-Believe me, I have been in other countries including USA, they have lots of talents too. Charice was recognized because of her excellent precision and versatility in rendering different genres and to think she's only 14 or 15? Maraming birit singers but not all possess international appeal. Sure we are proud of Charice but please---si Charice ang na-recognize hindi buong Pilipinas!!! Let us just support her because she deserves it.

[whiteandpurple]

i don't know, i just feel that Charice is just one of them... in general, we Filipinos ROCK!!!! the most talented race in this planet! (all we have to do is find it)... seriously... :p

[whiteandpurple]

good job, you make me proud! :)... though unfortunately, if you guys agree, that there are countless of other Filipinos like Charice (having the same talent or even better) that are not discovered yet... or simply are being ignored... have you experienced just walking around the city streets and find yourself stuck at a karaoke bar, you're there but you're not singing, but because the one singing caught your attention? because she's really good? did that happen to you? or something similar?

[duwep]

galing, napanganga tuloy ang mga puti!.

[madyikero15]

Dong Secuya is for Manny Pacquiao.......Ndgomez is for Arnel Pineda!!! falsevoice for charice pempengco Go go go pinoy go!!

[stump3d1987]

[deathwish475]
