Hi yazik! I love watching your reaction to our Filipino singers. I hope you can make a reaction to KZ's Rolling in the deep

Both of them having the title of "Soul thingy" that's why when they sing heart broken/sad songs, you can feel emotionally the meaning. Jaya - Asia's Queen of Souls Kz - Asia's Soul Supreme

KZ is well known for making/singing a song her own. try her Say Something and Rolling in the Deep in Singer 2018! Jaya is a soul Diva. tnx💕

I really wanted to skip the ads but I like your reactions already so I keep patient and watched them for you.. haha

I love it. A departure from the usual belting. Variety is great

Yazik baby lol. I really love how you react and so love ur voice either.

Hi yazik! Im a fan! For real!😘

Hi Coach! I love all your reaction vids!

Thank you for always reacting to Filipino singers😊😍😋🤗 your reactions were really legit😊😍💪✔

Nice reaction., nice speech too good job my friend

Thanks for reacting this wonderful Cover , Coach! God bless. Katrina Velarde made that “ Somewhere Over the Rainbow “ a wonderful jazz/ blues with her awesome unique style !You need to hear it because she made my “ Rainbow “ never the same bland , girlish music the same again.... My beloved Filipinos... their coaches from birth are the world’s best singers... and I just realize that when you said it... through the music you hear in the neighborhood. I used to think they don’t have originality because to have a personal Coach is so expensive and who can afford that when you can hardly even afford to buy a soda? But then , when they learn... their natural musical artistry just appears, and the music passion in our hearts awakens with our own styles ... and so the song might be someone else’s but the style is them , thus becoming one ,,, which makes wonderful music , like these.... it’s really like a diamond in the rough . When you ask a Filipino... like Marcelito Pomoy ( great example) who lived in the streets since the age of 5 or 6 yrs old just to survive...” who is your vocal trainer?” before that show “ Tawag ng Tanghalan” he looks at you blankly because aside from just listening to the neighbor’s blazing stereo or the music in the jeepneys and streets,,, he didn’t even have Karaoke ... I often wondered why homes, when they play their stereo are so loud that the whole neighborhood can hear.., but now I realize it’s to share the music to everyone in the neighborhood , who wants to listen but can’t even afford a transistor radio in their homes. And so the kids who plays in street, or the students who goes to school in the mornings hears those wonderful songs from somewhere and by the time you realize, your brain had been imprinted with that wonderful song. That’s why before, we dontbknow that singer... just the song.,. Thanks for this reaction, my heart woke up to appreciate my beloved country’s ways! In the poor areas ,.. the music in the air coming from some middle class neighbors are the only positives in their lives... kids as young / younger than the TNT Boys when they started , belts out pitches and notes you wouldn’t believe ... Francis Conception of thevTNat Boys is a great example... he was singing when he was three , I saw a vid of him when he was 4 or 5... they were 7 in his family , very poor but with perseverance positive attitude, their voices are their salvation to help their parents survive at a very young age! Love your Vlog, Coach ... thank you for appreciating our Filipino ways. We can leave our beloved homeland but we never forget to provide our parents and who we left behind...so yes, we have something in common. God bless, and Peace! You are welcome to visit our country !

Hello coach. Please try to react KZ rolling in a deep in Singer 2018. You will enjoy it.

I 💓 JAZZ. These women were just having fun but sounding great at the same time! Bravo, Jaya and KZ! Such amazing artists! 👏👏👏

Thank you for reacting to this coach. 😊. Ive been waiting for this reaction as I love how you react and I really learn a lot. 😊😊😊. Coach could u react to kyla yesterday? I love her and i want to know ur reaction to her style as i wpuld love to learn how to do her style. 😊😊😊. Thank you coach!. 😊

This is my favourite video in KZread. It makes me feel good every time I watch it. But if you want another vocal showcase, then you should react to Gary Valenciano singing “Spain” in the Wishbus. This is another good video that you can use for your students.

I love the reaction and technical explanation.. thanks

Maybe I just love hearing teaching, coaching while he reacts Coz I'm a teacher too and I'm a frustrated musician that can't sing. Good Job! And more power to you, I wish you all the Yazic, I love you, keep inspiring... And here I go again, who loves talking.... 😂

Jaya is a queen of soul and kz is the Asia Soul Supreme and thier both exceptional talent perfectly blended together and that kz nature to rearrange and doing scat stuff and their riff runs perfectly delivered. So much souls of this performance and i agree that you doesn't have to belt most of the time to prove that you are a good singer or artist and that's what exactly kz said before when she meet jessie j on the show "singer". Kz doesn't went through on throat surgery but she went through a biopsy instead 'cause she was scared to undergo on surgery to think that she might couldn't sing again.

Pls react to Jaya, Jason Dy and Jay R "Officially missing you" 👍 worth watching 👌👌👌

"Rolling In The Deep"...pls do react KZ Singer competition in China live...pleaseee

There was a time when every filipino romantic movies’ soundtrack songs were sung by Jaya.

Your speech about having lower voice 😍 I wish I knew that when I was younger! There was a time when Jaya was at the peak of her career, I was a little girl of 5 and I used to listen and sing along to her songs several times a week but then millenium came and the influence of US Pop dominated the media here. It was hard to sing in the same range and pitch as Britney or Mariah or Christina Aguilera. Then in my 3rd grade I remember cleaning the classroom with some groupmates and I was singing when classmate a commented in a disappointed way that I have deep, full voice like Jaya. He then mimicked my voice and had the others laughing. Me being young then and not really appreciating music in different forms, made me feel embarassed with the voice that I had. So I tried to change my voice over the years and was never convinced of my own tone. I resumed singing karaoke only in my college years and only around people who I know won't judge my voice 😅 That story aside, it is good to hear your side about how your country differs from ours when it comes to music. For people who have deep love for music, I guess they would appreciate living here although it's hard to make it big in the music industry as the competition is tighter. We often say, "Filipinos are the hardest audience to please/impress with singing." But I guess that was then. Good thing the media has evolved, Filipinos are getting more exposed with more genres and different styles of singing rather than the *Diva-ish* ones (is that even a word? Lmao) and platforms such as KZread exist now which enables everyone to make a name for themselves should they choose to. Thanks for reacting to KZ and Jaya (we pronounce J like american english so it's Jah-yah). I don't mind the talkative bits, those inputs are welcome to this viewer 😊

Jaya is Asia's Queen of Soul while KZ is called Soul Supreme. These two are phenomenal musical artists. KZ writes lyrics, does musical sounds and arranges. She just started acting & played a lead role in a movie, "The Art of Ligaw" (The Art of Courtship) in which she composed its song 'Quicksand'. You should react to this video aired on Wish Bus 107.5.

Hi yazik! Your reactions are amazing! Pls react to KZ's "rolling in the deep" and "say something" performances during singer 2018. Pls pls pls! 😁

Wow...thank you for your reaction to kz and jaya. I hope you can react to her own song Nagiisa na lang in wish bus. I love your reaction....keep singing and god bless 😇

Speechless,amazing singers

New here because of Jaya. Queen of soul!!!!! :))

I LOVVEEEE IIIIIT!!!!

I do adore JAZZ, R&B, SOUL !!

Jaya is One Amongst Philippines Pride....She is an International Artist too before, but she choose to concentrate in her native land....

I love your voice Yazik can u sing again😄

Jaya was once a champion among asian singers held in Hong Kong. If you tour among Asian Nations you will be surprised that most of their entertainers or singers are Filipinos.

I love u YAZIK ♥️🤗🥰 pls do keep reacting on regine and I promise ull never regret 8.

Hi yazik.pls.do react too for KZ Rolling in the deep..so amazing

Jaya is also known as "" Queen of Soul "" because she has a technique of soulful vocalizations...

how about jaya, jay-r, jayson d. officially missing you... anyway how can I send you some links?

I really like your reactions 😍 and by the way your so cute I like you..haha

For filipino male singers, you can choose either of the ff: Kris lawrence (great package; very tslented) Bugoy (pls check his rendition of 'one day'; he has great control ) Jay-R (our rnb prince) Johnoy Danao (cool, soulful) Jed madela (speechless, has won international awards) Rhap salazar (great technique and power like darren) John saga (who sounds like sam smith) ... will add more next time

Good choice of Filipino singers to start with. You will soon discover lots of great singers both famous and not so famous in the Philippines and I could guarantee that you will grow to love them as much as we do! Welcome!

Hello Coach. If you want to hear Jaya singing in an unusual way than the way she commonly does. Watch the collaboration of Jaya, Jason D. and Jay-r " Officially Missing You". That is lit*
