I'm not saying that out of jealousy or spite. It simply is the truth. Nathan definitely has the potential. However he needs a few more years to mature, in mental and talent.
Locals have no idea what jazz is. Period. There is only a niche group who can really appreciate jazz for what it is. In this country, people think the singer is fantastic just because he or she sings the song the way they heard it from an international superstar. It's depressing.
ohhh myyy.... when he sings i m just like in paradise..... i have seen him a few times in his school coz when i m going to the ACS hostel i see him=) he is just so irresistably cute!!!~
oh please.. he's doing great for a 17 yrs old indonesian studying in singapore. I mean he can make it even in a foreign country in such a young age. How many indonesian can do that? Look at me for an example =P
michael buble and nathan hartono. where is the link? one is a world wide superstar whose voices charms nearly everyone. this nathan guy prolly has more enemies than fans. lol sad.
I think Nathan Hartono has a really wonderful grasp of his voice. He can practically sing all his songs really really well. However, I think during Child Aid 06, he sorta screwed up "Life Is Good!"? I heard he had a sore throat though. :)
MY BAD! It's not at 02:57, it's at 02:47. Lip-syncing aside, he loses his nice jazzy tone at the high parts of the song, especially at the earlier bits.
I think he's lip-syncing some parts of this song. If you look at 02:57, when he turns around, despite his mouth being closed and the mike moving away, the sound STILL continues. Don't preach to me about the echo either, he turns just BEFORE a new note starts. This means that the note starts even when the mike has moved away and his mouth has closed. (This is very short, so you need to pause and rewind several times to see it)
Then kindly tell me why the part I pointed seems to be the ONLY part that lags? Youtube also does not 'lag' all day. No matter the time I check it, the part still remains the same.
fyi, he's broken his voice alrdy, therefore making whutever u said abt pitch control redundant. i don't see whut the problem is with singing the song cos ppl do covers all the time. he's not being sneaky or trying to cover it up. if you don't call his singing a talent then whut wld u call it? sayin it sucks wld be a completely ridiculous. but if u think he sucks then by all means cos i mean everyone's got their own opinions.
Pitch Control is ALWAYS important, no matter how old you are. You voice also does not fully mature until you are 26(give or take a few years). I guess that was what michellesantoso meant. Singing covers is not a problem as long as it is non-profitable. In order to earn money from it, you need special permission. Talent = Practice, PROPER training, hard work.
alright, a prebuscent who can sing? i dont think so. I've heard better talents. What makes me sick is that his new single, is plagiarized from Maliq & D'essentials song. Its an indonesian song, but somehow he seemed to turn that into some singaporean jazz mix up. To be frank, he has to remind himself of pitch control. 15 hmm? wait till he breaks his voice. He'll learn how important pitch control is by the time hes 18. "fly me to the MOOO---OOOEENNN~~~~" ouch.
Nathan is really cool.. If you never saw he sing, please don't judge. I saw his concert yesterday, and it's really amazing.. Sold Out.. Then the single is not plagirized from Maliq & D'essentials. He did state that the song is originally sung by M&D, maybe his management have buy right from M&D. So please don't judge other if you don't know the truth.
haha. ok. so i get that he didnt plagiarize M&D's song. So that would mean hes unoriginal.he lacks the zest of a jazz singer and the maturity of a man. I dont mean to misjudge, but its true. If he as to possess the creativity of a jazz singer, hed be able to outdo AT LEAST jamie cullum... o but wait.. i totally forgot jamie cullum is a creative genius. oh and get this, he writes and plays his own music. why bother rooting for a low class 'rising star'?
Jamie Cullum a musical genius? He is musical, he has ideas, but calling him a musical genius is a fallacy. Yes Jamie Cullum is jazz.
"Jazz singers" worldwide right now have the same problem. They THINK that copying buble who's a sinatra copycat is jazz. Jazz is about improvisation and making things your own. And SWING feel. Buble isn't jazz, let alone his copycats. This is easy listening.
Oh I forgot to mention something. When I mean "Jazz singers" I'm meaning people who THINK that they're singing jazz but know beeswax about it. Real jazz singers are busting their asses trying to innovate and come up with ideas while other people just copy and call themselves "jazz". And yes, nathan actually has a nice voice. Would be good if he studied jazz. And no, buble is FAR from jazz
as far as u can tell which is only superficial because i've heard him sing plenty of other genres and anyone who attended his concert wld know he did.
his voice so sexy....LOL
