I don't even know that guy. :lol:

His voice isn't really powerful, but he could have done worse.

I think he would be an okay choral singer, but he's not a soloist like Billie. Voice just isn't strong enough, and that's a song that has so much power and feeling. Billie is the only singer I've seen who can make me hear the ache in his voice.

That sounds hilarious.

This isn't half bad actually. Except for the high notes, that's just :wacko: It really is like karoke :lol:

He's not a great singer, and he's in the wrong key oh no...but it's cool that he's a gd fan.

That was hilarious.

Posted

His voice.... :mellow: :mellow:

Posted

Bahahahaha! I just pissed myself from laughing so hard...

... Not just because it was funny, But because it was fucking terrible.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Haha what a way to start the day! I'm going to be laughing all day. lol.

Thanks for the link :lol:

Just a stupid question ... am I supposed to know who this rapper is? I've never heard about him, is he famous? =/

Don't know him either, and don't really care. rofl!

Not as bad I thought it'd be, but I put it off mid way through the first verse :lol:

Posted

Um, okay.... I'm not sure whether to laugh or to cry.

I find it cool that he likes them and wants to honour them (or whatever he said) but seriously he's a shit singer

Posted

It was ok, but thats it. :mellow:

He probably only said he likes them because he wants people to like him and made this video for that exact reason.

But I still can't stop laughing!

also, he chose 21 Guns, and that was probably because it was a very popular song, I think if he really liked them he would have at least chose one of the less popular (but better) songs in my opinion.

I'm not a big fan of Iyaz but I though it was pretty cool.

Yeah, he's not great at singing it, but have you heard Billie Joe singing 21 Guns live??? He's not exactly note perfect either. I thought he put in a decent perfomance even though it was out of tune. Cool points to him for wanting to cover Green Day in the first place, and it's always interesting to hear a different take on one of their songs.

He probably only said he likes them because he wants people to like him and made this video for that exact reason.

Why are people assuming he doesn't really like Green Day? All we have is a video of him singing the song, so what could possibly indicate that?

Since he's covering a Green Day song I would assume he likes Green Day, if anything.

LOL @ the autotune. I respect that he's a GD fan and wanted to do a cover, but it wasn't that good, tbh.

Posted

OK i am sure this has already been said but anyways..

When i read the title i was like WTF, a rapper covering 21 Guns this is going to fucking suck (i dont know who Iyaz is) but he didnt completely butcher the song which is good.... But i can absloutely see why he is a rapper and not a singer..

Posted

sweet jezus that was horrible. the only reason some of your are saying its even "ok" is because of the auto-tune. i hate auto-tune so much.

i wouldve rather him rap it instead. probably wouldve been better then him trying to sing.

Posted

Ehh, interesting. It was a nice effort, but i've certainly heard better covers.

Posted

He's said before many times that he likes Green Day... don't ask me how I know this, let's just say I'm the only Green Day fan in my group of friends :dry:

It's cool that he likes Green Day, but he just doesn't have the power or feeling behind his voice that made me fall in love with the song in the first place.

Posted

i give him credit for trying and also he is a Green Day fan so thats a plus. but his cover was... interesting. i just dont think this song is his type of song to be singing. nuff said. :mellow:

Posted

haha .. random ... its ok I guess ... he loves Green Day .. so I like him :)

Posted

So I am seriously dissapointed that he did not try to rap it XD I feel like this is a publicity stunt

lawl he sux
