ABS-CBN: The Voice of the Philippines - Season 2 (Part 1)

[catwoman]

Ano reason bakit nawala si Joniver sa Team Bamboo? May kaso ba sya?

[jamie_0117]

^waley naman clear reason.

yung isang speculation, nag violate daw ng rule, na ang hinala ng mga tao, may kinalaman sa leakage na ikinagalit ni leah. another speculation, positive daw sa drugs.

nag post sya sa FB nya, asking for help from his supporters, pero ayaw nya naman sabihin kung anong help ang kailangan nya. at para mas ma-drama, nag post sha na yung speculation daw, i-prove ng mga tao. noong una, nakakaawa, pero sha mismo nag-s-stir ng controversy, it got old agad, nag move on na mga tao.

medyo waley mga performances ng team niya sa battles. kahit yung ibang coaches ngco-comment na masyadong mahirap yung kanta for other singers. ang galing kasi ng battle performances ng 3 coaches eh.

it's more strategic and convenient to choose sarah over the other coaches kase sha talaga pinakamalakas na hatak pag dating sa text votes. yun lang, kailangan, ikaw ang favorite ni sarah, parang lyca. eh ngayon, favorite ang kokoy, talagang endless screaming + standing ovation. pre-determined naman na kung sino ang ilalaban nya sa final 4, nakaka-discourage kaya sa iba nyang team members.

eh hindi naman kaya overrated si kokoy? bago lang sa pandinig ng nakararami ang reggae (hindi ko nilalahat ha), pero sa boracay ba, stand out sha? ang dami din artists sa boracay na kasing galing, if not mas magaling pa kay kokoy. for one, ferns of team apl is also from bora and she performs internationally pa nga. she's a different story though, pinapatagal lang stay nya sa TVOP for exposure, talent yan ng starmusic, lol

[zelda]

hindi ko napanuod yung season 1 pero ganun ba talaga si sarah? (sorry sa fans) sa the voice kids kasi medyo waley din. feeling ko magaling lang talaga si darren that time. medyo waley mga performances ng team niya sa battles. kahit yung ibang coaches ngco-comment na masyadong mahirap yung kanta for other singers. ang galing kasi ng battle performances ng 3 coaches eh.

 I haven't watched all battle rounds performances but last year Team Sarah was superb, imo. Walang patapon. Sa team nya I think nanggaling yun memorable na battle, yun "No More Tears" (Morisette & Lecelle) Ewan ko lang now kasi di ko napanood lahat ng battles this batch.


KNOCKOUT ROUNDS:
Team Bamboo: WTH lang yun kay Bamboo. Another Lee Grane moment? Sabit na sabit (It's not even her style) ang Limang Dipang Tao ni Kai. I mean, Elmerjun won't go far in the competition, I know, pero hustisya naman. LOL I guess, inisip ni Bamboo may andabels si Kai. Chos! Arni gave a "very hot" version of Fallin. LOL Ilan beses ba nagwhip ng hair si Tanya? Nakakahilo yun ah. 

Team Apl: Strongest nya si Daryl Ong. Boring song but ang sarap lang pakinggan. Bradley was given a song suited for him! Grabe lang ang appeal neto. Sana ballad naman next time to stretch him. Alisah should avoid oversinging the songs. So, yes, strongest singers for me this year ay na kay Apl.

Team Lea: May reason bakit di pumatok si Nino Alejandro noon kaya LOL. Di ko pa rin ma-appreciate  si Casper. Hehe Sorry. Pero cute yun Timmy, calling Star Magic? Kiddin! Yun Lea, 4 ata baga nya, san humugot ng hangin yun. 

Team Sarah: Overkill ang Jar of Hearts ni Jason Dy. Jason Fernandez was good.  I was expecting Kokoi would show us more of his artistry by having reggae versions of songs pero wala. Sorry, pero nagmumukha na syang Blakdyak (?).

[MisCalculus]

^nice review

same here, for me, some of the most unforgettable battles came from Team Sarah: No more tears nila morissette and lecelle, What about love ni Hans and Maki. Sa tvop naman, the top 2 contenders were on her team. 
I think sa season 2, nadala na magpunta yung iba sa team Lea kasi hindi nila magawa yung gusto nila i.e., bumirit ng bumirit
----
Grabe, EJ was robbed.lol! I have nothing against Kai, kaso without her magic ukulele, her singing ability is very ordinary. Mas magaling sa KO si EJ sa kanya.

Parang nakikita ko sa finals sina Daryl Ong (team Apl), Nino A. or Lea Patricio (team Lea), Kokoi or Jason F (team Sarah; i'm rooting for Monique but i think baka waley sya sa voting), unpredictable naman sa Team Bamboo.

[glamorous_aisha]

I was just saying my opinion sa recent battles. malinaw ko naman sinabi hindi ko napanuod yung season 1. hirap kasi yung mga singers niya sa kanta or hindi bagay yung kanta sa boses ganyan. yun lang the good thing is lumitaw kung sino  talaga magagaling.  I still feel na unfair yung ang daming votes sa team sarah dahil sa fans ni sarah. kaloka hindi naman yung coach ang contestant eh.

Team Apl, nung blinds I thought he was getting the weak people pero humanga ako sa kanya kasi ang bilis maglevel up ng mga singers sa team niya. or siguro magaling talaga siya magproduce kaya maganda din performances. haha

[mrscolunga]

I liked Arnee's performance, although advantage talaga yung showbiz experience nya. She has this song and music video "Nang dahil sa iyo" na super lamig sa tenga

[japs]

I was actually rooting for Rence from Team Kawayan but his recent performance was just bleh. It was very ordinary and nothing special! I think Arni can go far, ang ganda ng version niya nung Fallin.

Sino bet niyo mananalo sis?

[minaco_aino]

I like Daryl Ong from Team Apl. Sana bigyan sya ng magagandang song choice para umabot sya ng finals. Bradley also. Narinig ko syang kumanta sa ASAP ng soft song, mukang bagay naman sa voice nya. Alisah is good also. Wag lang ma over do yung song. Yung mga viral video nya sa youtube ang ganda talaga ng boses nya. Good song choices for her, papasok sya sa finals. 

Parang puro sa Team Apl lang yung papasok sa finals. Haha. For me, magagaling kasi yung nasa team nya.

[jamie_0117]

Team Apl, nung blinds I thought he was getting the weak people pero humanga ako sa kanya kasi ang bilis maglevel up ng mga singers sa team niya. or siguro magaling talaga siya magproduce kaya maganda din performances. haha

During blinds, feeling ko the producers edited the episodes that way para mag mukang weak si Apl. My coworker said, parang walang may gusto kay Apl, especially pag 2-4 chair turner. And when he is the first one who turns, hindi ipinapakita ang behind-the-scene ni Toni G and family/friends. But no ha, si Daryl, Jason, Bradley, lahat yan 3-chair turners. May dalawa pang instances yata he won over Lea.

At naiintindihan ko ang perspective nya kung bakit iba ang comments nya vs the other coaches. Sila Lea, Sarah, Bamboo - very technical, mashado nila mini-micro manage ang artists nila (naku lalo na si Lea and Sarah, pero mas nakakatakot si Lea!). Si Apl, important sa kanya yung overall impact.

Sino bet niyo mananalo sis?

Personally, I like Bradley, maganda yung Kumusta, Mga Kaibigan version nya. Kaya lang may nang bash sa kanya, sabi, maganda nga ang delivery ng song, pero sino naman kakantahan nya eh wala naman shang kaibigan. Feeling ko tuloy, mahina sha sa masa. Kay Daryl na lang, para shang si Jay-R, IMO.

In social media, madaming sikat from Team Sarah - Kokoy, Poppert, and Jason and  Team Apl - Maki, Allisah, and Daryl. Si Daryl, may mga chapter pa kung saan-saang bahagi ng mundo ang fans club.

[lfs1925]

here are my bets:

Team APL:
Daryl Ong: sobrang naaakit ako sa boses ng taong ito. at ngayon addicted na ko sa kanya. i even watch his Thinking Out Loud version sa youtube (repeatedly) at mas nagustuhan ko yung version nya kesa sa orig version
cons: medyo mala-JR ang dating pero since hindi naman na gaun ka-visible si JR then ok na manalo si daryl


Team Lea:
Lea Patricio: may iba pa ba? her voice is really a pro.. sobrang galing sa lahat ng aspects.
cons: hindi pang-showbiz ang dating. sorry but napansin ko lang hindi nag-tatagal sa showbiz ang matatabang singer. sana work out pa more si Lea P.


Team Sarah:
Kokoi: new genre kasi..after blackdyak wala ng sumunod na sikat na reggae singer sa kanya so sana mabigyan ng break si kokoi
cons: medyo lagi lang nakapikit at nakayuko. more connection to audience


Team Bamboo:
kARLO mOJICA:  joniver sana kaso natanggal naman. ayoko kay arnie parang hirap na hirap sa pag-kanta. another pops fernandez in the making.
cons: if he wins what will be the next for him? mahihirapan sila i-build up so Karlo.

[zelda]

Kaloka ang firts live show! Song choices were a bit meh for me. Iilan lang sa kanila ang pumili ng songs na medyo recent. LOL

Team Sarah:
I think it was a good save for Jason F. He delivered, and he showed another part of himself, yun nga lang tunog Wency pa rin. I do hope he avoids that. Interesting choice for Monique. Maganda ang delivery nya. Sarap pakinggan.

Team Apl: Daryl Ong, that was underwhelming. He better works on his song choices. Ang classy lang ni Suy, and Ferns didn't stand a chance against her dahil usually magagandang girly ang pinipili ng Apl. Chos lang!

Team Lea: Leah, eh di ikaw na! She sounded a bit screamy pero sige na yun operatic part in the beginning reminded us this is "The Voice," and a singing contest. Nino's take on Nakakapagtaka is plain boring. Sorry, may reason bakit di sya pumatok nun. YUn lang. hahaha Napagod ako sa pageemote ni Abbey.

Team Bamboo: Surprising ba na Kai topped the public vote? LOL Sya lang ata ang pumili ng super recent na song, and that's commendable. But once again, her voice was all flats and sharps. Buti na lang kahit si Taylor Swift di magaling maglive. Rita's take on Nirvana's song was enough to keep me entertained. Maganda ang areglo. Thank God at tapos na ang sob story ni Karlo. Sorry, his Footloose is just fine.


Di ko pa rin magets bakit feeling ng ABS eh Blind Audition pa rin 'to? napaka-predictable ng lighting. Umpisa super dilim, tipong di makita ang singer then as it goes near the glory note, liliwanag. Napa-predictable. LOL

[jamie_0117]

Hindi naman masyado surprising about Kai. Madami nga sha bashers, but sa YT, next to Daryl, sha ang pinakamadaming views. Madami supporters si Kai, I guess hindi lang kasing ingay ng supporters nila Rita and Karlo.

   "Let's Stay Together" by Daryl Ong (Season 2) - 9,934 views
   "Blank Space" by Kai Honasan (Season 2) - 9,124 views
   "Maging Sino Ka Man" by Monique Lualhati (Season 2) - 7,470 views

My opinion on Ferns - diba the grand winner will get a contract with I forgot which company. Eh parang talent naman yata sha ng Starmusic, pano yan pag nag advance sha hanggang finals?

Team Apl: Daryl Ong, that was underwhelming. He better works on his song choices. Ang classy lang ni Suy, and Ferns didn't stand a chance against her dahil usually magagandang girly ang pinipili ng Apl. Chos lang!

Agree! Daryl Ong or Coach Apl should pick songs wisely. Kung laging ganito baka hindi sya umabot sa finals. Good thing madami na syang fans.

[scruffs]

Sana matanggal na si Casper. Hindi mu alam kung inaarte lang niya or yun talaga ang natural singing voice niya. Regardless I find it not good in my ears and so overrated. 

Kung sa vote lang, for sure papasok ng papasok si Kai, eh siyempre Sir Gringo Honasan ang father. Hehe

Go Kokoy!

[aranses]

I think kahit natanggal si Fern kay Team APL tutulungan pa din niya si Fern same kasi sila advocacy - pinoy music.

Kay team Bamboo parang di bukal sa loob niya pagpili kay Rita over Carlo. Magaling pa naman pagkanta ni Carlo ng footloose. Nagulat din ako na si Kai nasave sa botohan.

[lfs1925]

Lea Patricio/Daryl Ong ang bet ko..

[minaco_aino]

Inaabangan ko si Alisah ng Team Apl. Feeling ko sila maglalaban ni Daryl for finals.

[leelou]

from the live show last saturday, i like most Jason F. and Suy's performance. Kaya happy ako nakapasok sila! and i pity Kai sobrang nega mga comments sa kanya eh it's known naman na votes pagbabasehan.

[lfs1925]

in fairness to Kai, hindi man sya pambirit pero her voice is distinct.. wala pa akong naririnig na katulad nya yung genre at voice dito sa Pinas. kung papakinggan mo lang sya aakalain mong foreigner yung kumakanta..the diction, accentm pronunciation very good for me.. sa pag kanta naman kasi hindi lang kailangan maganda ang boses.. kailangan din magaling ang pag deliver ng words ng bawat kanta para maintindihan yung lyrics and i think yun yung advantage nya compare sa ibang contestants and of course yung unique voice nya.

[iampennylane]

Ako lang ata ang ayaw kay Lea Patricio, parang pag nanalo sya parang okay, next. Nabobother ako sa bangs nya hehe
