ABS-CBN: THE VOICE Kids (Philippines Series)

[miyam210]

I am not sure if you can really classify Darren as 'mayaman'. Ordinary working folks lang parents niya sa Canada (nurses). Do you really think kaya nila bumili ng text votes so Darren can win?  What I really like about him aside from his talent is mukhang mabait at magalang yung bata. Maski na lumaki sa Canada,  magaling pa rin mag tagalog.  At may charisma din siya like JK pero hindi antipatiko and pilit and dating. Ang problema niyan, 4 ang papasok sa finals so malamang sila Darlene, JK, Darren at Lyka ang papasok.  Pag nagkataon, 2 ang from team Sarah at mahahati ang votes.

Looking forward to Darren's performance this weekend. BTW, pinahiram pa pala nila Darren si Lyka ng shoes for her performance.  What a nice gesture!!!  Here are some quotes from TVK production team:

Garlic Garcia @bigbadbawang · 8h
DARREN nails his song at band rehearsals w/coaching by @JustSarahG. Lahat kinilabutan sa galing niya!

Garlic Garcia @bigbadbawang
Darren's younger sister lent Lyca nice shoes for her performance at the Sing-Offs. Very touching how it's about compassion over competition.
 
How sweet naman.... hindi katulad nung isa na panliligaw na ang inaatupag...

^ when I said "mayaman," it's the common notion that people will probably say kapag dehado yung bet nila. And some abroad based fans/relatives, nagpapadala talaga sila ng pera sa Pinas (to the president of fans club etc etc) solely for text votes.

ako ang gusto ko si Lyca, Darlene, Darren & Tonton..

parehas tayo. Tho gusto ko din si Juan Karlos. Iba yung batayan ko e. more on clarity rather than the highest note that they can reach. Impressive lang din si Lyca for someone who can't afford to pay for her singing lessons, the girl has dynamics and clarity.

[minaco_aino]

Ang galing ni Darren! Sana makuha sya sa finals. Sa totoo lang ngayon ko lang sya na appreciate. Siguro kasi nakafocus lang ako kay Darlene and Lyka. Pero I really wish na makarating sya finals.

Malakas ang charm ni Juan Karlos. May chance sya makapasok.

Si Darlene and Lyka na next. Commercial pa. 

[SnowBall]

Pang grand finals nga talaga ang performance ni Darren tonight omg goosebumps!!

Iboboto ko siya talaga he is my one and only one bet.

Go Darren



Comments ko sa performances tonight:

TONTON- ninerbiyos ata medyo sablay ang unang pasok niya pero i like his voice kasi parang si michael jackson ang timbre.

EDRAY- bagay yung song sa boses niya. Tonight imo eh siya ang nakalaban ni Darren sa performance.

DARREN- super ganda talaga ng pagkanta niya. Superb performance.

JUAN KARLOS- very charming. Mas bagay sa kanyang mag artista.

LYCA- hindi ako nagandahan sa kinanta niya kasi palagi siyang may tono mala aegis kaya sana ibagay sa boses niya yung next song niya. Or matanggal sana niya yung ganung tono or growl.

DARLENE - she is a bit immature pa pero cute. Yun lang she was shouting na with gigil factor. Bamboo's very short comment said it all. Sana ma improve pa niya.

[KVsWahmmy]

Same here sis SnowBall! Darren, wow, that kid is exceptional talaga. Buong-buo ang boses, and he knows how to control the runs that he does. Hindi yung umuulan ng runs na OA na.

The so-so performances for me were Edray and Tonton - parang ok, they can sing. Pero walang outstanding eh.

Sorry ha, I know they're kids, they're not supposed to be perfect singers, but Darlene - Darlene just didn't hit her notes. Umpisa pa lang flat na. Dinadaan nya sa facial expressions and gestures. She's bibo - but The Voice Kids PH? Hindi pa sya ready. BUT, I think she'd do great as a child actress, or even a host.

Juan Carlos wasn't so-so naman, malakas appeal nung bata. Very charming. And good song choice, it matched his voice. Let's just hope that if he tries other genres, same level pa din ng performance nya today.

Lyca... She wasn't the best singer tonight, pero ewan ko ba, when that kid sings, there's something else eh. And it's not the mahirap story. It's her face, that innocent look, the way she sings just because she likes singing, very natural ang gestures. And I guess Sarah just picks great songs for her talaga, kasi very touching everytime she sings. Will she win? Kung sa voice quality, mas may laban sya kay Darlene.


....BUT, it all boils down to text votes yata. So let's see. I seriously hope it's the TALENT that stays, and wins.

[pandalicious]

Parang wala na yatang say ang coaches ngayon kung sino mag-stay, tama ba? Di kagaya sa first season na 50% votes 50% coach decision. Talagang pure textvotes lang mag-decide kung sino mag-stay? Sana maraming mag-vote kay darren, galing niya talaga.

[miyam210]

  DARREN for the win. Yung iba mag-artista na lang.  Think about it, kung mayroong international The Voice kiddie competition, who would you want to represent our country?  Dapat yung magaling talaga kumanta, hindi yung dinadaan na lang sa charm at pa-cute.  Minsan nakakairita na rin ang sobrang maarte, medyo OA na.

[KVsWahmmy]

Nabasa ko ulit sa Newsfeed yung news about Darlene and her crying moment.

Naalala ko bigla, medyo nakaka-bother din how 'unnatural' it looked. She cried soooo hard. Tapos after kumanta, parang wala lang, ok na. I know, I know, bata. Pero ewan ko ba. It looked so...staged? Hindi kaya kinausap ng mga magulang ito at sinabing "umiyak ka"? May conspiracy theory talaga ko ano? Hehe. Suspicious lang kasi. Sana naman hindi sya tinuturuan ng ganun though, if ever. May talent naman yung bata, hindi nakakatulong sa kanya yung mga ganung 'technique'. If this was Showtime, maybe.

[g3rl_23]

i think she knows na she did bad in her performance kaya umiyak.  maski naman bata pa yan, alam naman na nila kung maayos or hindi performance nila. 

me i still voted for darlene.  though hindi kagandahan ang naging performance nya, i still believe in her talent.  i think all of them naman deserve to be there.  lahat me boses, lahat magaling.  they were chosen not only because of their voice but also yung potential to be a star talaga.  kahit saang singing competition naman eh hindi pure voice na lang ang tinitignan ngayon, projected na din nila kung marketable din yung contestant, yung may potential to hit big. i hope people will not take it against them just because mas charming sila sa ibang contestant, me talent din naman sila, magaling din naman sila.  yung charm nila, added bonus na lang.  the coaches will not choose them naman kung wala silang talent kumanta. for me, all six of them deserve to win, so sino man manalo sa kanila, i think deserve nila yun.

[princessrio]

ton-ton - kinabahan siguro sya. pag first to perform ka talaga sa contests, nakakakaba. but i still love him. i love his voice. i love how he delivered the song.

edray - ang ganda ng boses nya! galing! sayang kasi parang wala syang hatak sa masa. pero magaling talaga sya. (sorry, napansin ko lang ito.. ang ganda ng teeth nya ha?)

darren - galing ng performance nya.

juan karlos - the performance was just ok for me but it was fun to watch. si bamboo parang naging stage father! haha.. napasayaw ata sya sa performance ni jk. ang gusto ko kay jk, talagang nag-improve ang boses nya from blind auditions.

lyca - magaling itong batang ito. but hindi ko sya feel pag kumanta sya ng english song. i would have to agree with the "aegis" thing.

darlene - i believe kaya nya yung song kaya lang parang "nanggigil" sya dun sa kanta.


i believe those kids deserve to be there.. OA man, charming, pa-cute, mabait..whatever you call it. these are kids. they also give their hearts out. abangers mamaya kung sino papasok sa top 4! goodluck to all 6 young artists!

[mistykaye_p]

I just voted for Darren. This is my first time na mag-vote sa mga ganitong contest. Grabe napa-boto talaga ako hehe. His rendition of One Moment in Time is just amazing. Got goose bumps while he was singing. I am now a fan of this kid. 😊

[Yamski]

Same here. I voted for Darren because of his rendition of One Moment in Time. Minaximize ko talaga yung 30 votes.

[SnowBall]

@ sis KVsWahmmy, ang galing ni Darren diba sis, gifted talaga siya, kaso sinasabi nila siya daw ang batang Jed Madela hehe. No problem naman sa akin, ano man si Darren, his talent pa lang, winner na


Pumalpak naman talaga si Darlene, kaya nga nag taray si Lea Salonga, kasi badtrip siya, halata sa face niya, kahit paulit ulit na sinasabi ni Lea na "Grabe ka!", as if astonished siya sa performance, pero nasa mukha ni Lea, she wasn't happy as her coach.

I know they are kids, lahat naman sila bata, pero this is The Voice kids we're talking about, siyempre contest to, may mananalo, may matatalo talaga, and aminin natin, kanya kanyang talent talaga ang mga kids.

Remember Charice Pempengco, hindi siya ang naging grand winner noon (I forgot the title of the singing contest), kundi si Sam Concepcion, pero look what happened to both of them after the contest, mas sumikat si Charice, internationally pa, kung hindi lang nag loko si Charice, probably sikat na sikat na siya sa US ngayon.


Bottomline, ako naniniwala ako, na kung ang isang bata, may talagang talent, hindi natin pwedeng ikulong yan sa box whether nag champion siya sa the voice kids or not.

Manalo, matalo, kung may talent talaga, mararating din niya ang tagumpay sooner or later.


Naku, ako bumoto talaga ako kay Darren ng 50 pesos sa cel ko at ni hubby, mamaya ulit 50 pesos hahahaha.

sana in my own little way, nakatulong ako sa kanya, kasi bilib talaga ako sa talent niya

[g3rl_23]

Congrats sa top 4!!  medyo naiyak ako nung tinawag na yung top 4.  you can see it na gusto nilang lahat na makapasok sa top 4, sadly eh may kailangang matanggal. 

Congrats to Lyka, Juan Karlos, Darlene and Darren!!

[SnowBall]

Dahil kay Lyca narinig ko kung paano kakantahin ng Aegis ang Let it go hehe.

Hindi na ata niya matatanggal pa ang mala aegis na tunog.

Nasayangan ako kay Edray..sorry ha pero para sa akin mas magaling siyang kumanta kina Lyca at Darlene..

Si Darlene puro pasigaw ang style niya ganyan na ba siya dati pa? Kagabi at kanina ko lang kasi siya napanood.. naririnig ko sa boses niya yung potential niya eh kaso naiirita ako kapag sumisigaw na tapos wala sa tono.

I know she is just 10 years old, yun na nga eh 10 pa lang, siguro paglaki laki niya.

Sayang talaga si Edray..

Mas mataas ang votes ni Lyca kesa kay Darren. Hmmm...

Mahahati ang boto ng popsters hehe

[KVsWahmmy]

Kinabahan ako, akala ko hindi tatawagin si Darren! Buti na lang - buti na lang talaga!

Nasayangan ako kay Edray, natalo sya sa boto ni Darlene. Sa apat, as far as singing talent is concerned, si Darlene and Lyca talaga yung bottom two, with Lyca being ahead of Darlene lang by a few steps. I appreciate naman yung mala-Aegis na boses ni Lyca kahit papano, at least may consistent tone. Si Darlene basta makakanta na lang. And I agree - sayang. The kid has talent, spunk, kumbaga eh, ma-improve pa talaga - pero parang walang na-improve sadly. Does this mean SG is a better coach sa mga bagets? Posible siguro, she can relate to them better, nakikita ko kasi sa interactions nila na pinapakita eh. I mean Lyca can easily become a Darlene kind of singer kung yun ang direction na tinuro sa kanya ni SG - yung bank on birits and all. But no. So good job SG!

I can sooo see these kids in ASAP na! Especially Darren and JK. Should make for a fun production number with Sam Concepcion and Sarah G ano?

Kakalungkot lang yung 'sexuality' comments na nababasa ko in some sites about Darren. Hala naman, hindi talaga spare yung bata sa ganung comments? Some netizens talaga....haaay... His singing women's songs is just to prove and show his range - and he showed them off beautifully.

[g3rl_23]

i think problem with darlene, talent is there, and i think coach leah has done her part in coaching her wonderfully, problem, pag naumpisahan na nya yung birit, di na nya matone down.  sana iim-prove nya yun.  she have a good singging voice, sana payuhan na bawasan ng bumirit masyado.  pero go pa din ako sa kanya!!

re: darren's sexuality, sad nga na instead na all focus in his talent na lang, nadadagdagan pa ng kung anong wala naman kinalaman sa kanyang pagkanta.  tao minsan talaga, humahanap talaga minsan ng maipipintas.  tsk tsk tsk.

[castledoll]

Naiyak ako sa results ng TVK for top 4. Honestly, may feeling na ako na si Ton Ton and Edray ang malalaglag kasi compared to the other 4, silang 2 ang may pinaka konti ang fan base. and plus factor din na nahahati ang fans nung mga coaches nila kung sino ang iboboto.

here are my observations from last night's performances.

Edray - ang linis ng boses nya! grabe din ang improvement nya since the blind auditions. Too bad lang na kasi hinde siya ganun ka-appeal sa masa. Sana lang hinde na siya ma-bully.

Darren - magaling kung sa magaling kaya lang hinde nya nasu- sustain yung notes nya sa dulo. Kakaiba ang charm ng batang ito. parang ang bait bait din ng aura nya.

Juan Karlos - nagalingan ako sa performance nya. The song chosen, Sway, is a little boring for me. Pero nung kinanta nya, because magaling nga siya mag interpret ng song, ang sarap panoodin. I also like Bamboo's advice to him na be respectful sa mga dancers kapag nag adlib siya ng sayaw with them.

Lyca - for someone na ganun pa lang ka-bata, walang formal music lessons, ang galing nya. may dynamics and andun yung clarity. ang magiging problema lang sa kanya, kapag english songs na ang pakakantahin.

Darlene - sayang lang kasi ang dami nyang flats. Siguro kaya din siya napaiyak towards the end kasi she knew she didn't quite deliver at naiyak na lang siya sa takot. Naisip na lang nyang excuse yung lolo nya.

Ton-Ton - may factor din siguro yung pagkakaroon nya ng ubo kaya medyo shaky siya. among the kids, sabi nga ni Coach Lea, siya yung may pinaka batang bata na boses talaga. Kung PDA lang sana ito araw araw may training, baka mas malaki pa ang improvement nya.

Based on last night's performances, I'd rather choose Ton-Ton than Darlene. ang lamang lang ni Darlene talaga, mas nauna nyang na capture ang masa. Pero nung pinakita yung ranking nila, 4th si Darlene and 5th si Ton-Ton. siguro maliit lang ang agwat nila.

[makuleht]

Nag vote din ako for Darren, for me, he's the best among them and very versatile.

[crazy_krizsa]

I used to like Darlene kasi ang bibo nyang bata, although now parang OA na noh? Hinde na natural yung pagiging makulit nya. Nasayangan ako kay Edray and Tonton, both of them deserved to be on the top 4, pero ganun talaga may kelangan mawala and since sila ang wala ganun kalakas na fan base. Team Sarah all the way. Kelangan lang tagalog ang kantahin ni Lyca or Sarah should work hard on her diction, si Darren, okay na ang sarap lang nyang panoorin.
