Aldrich Talonding and James Bucong guest on Ellen DeGeneres show

[@jeannetteramirez3704]

Is it me...or does anyone else notice that Filipinos have beautiful voices?!

[@umrnavy8282]

what country do u live?

[@shaneedraga6503]

Yeah almost. Humbly saying

[@marionpelias652]

Jeannette Ramirez everybody does sweetie...

[@ssgtflo]

It's one of the reasons that I absolutely loved my years spent living in the Philippines while serving as a United States Marine. So much talent and such kind and compassionate people.

[@rynierbumagat4475]

Jeannette Ramirez I know cuz I'm one of them

[@philkim423]

Ok can we just talk about the guitar player? I've played with that guitar and it sucks. Literally it's hard to play with and sounds awful. But I'm so blown away that he can play it with such ease and make the guitar sound so good. Raw talent. Imagine what he could do with a $1,000 guitar. God bless you man.

[@Jewels1573]

That is what I was thinking! He is a very talented guitarist to be sure.

[@Freak9564]

The boy is amazing but I feel like his cousin is neglected here. His guitar playing is beautiful. Both are very talented!

[@alexist6193]

I felt bad during the gift giving as well... :(

[@michaelgooden137]

I agree!!!

[@WonderZmith]

Yes :(

[@rosendovillarreal4938]

I felt the same way. It pissed me off

[@marcosvinicius4822]

Eles são irmãos

[@wanderlust5101]

PROUD TO BE FILIPINO!!👋👋👏👏

[@FL1PP3RR]

+hey bae same here

[@reysonfeliciano5951]

[@1msubscribers362]

🖕 maging proud ka sa na archive mo sa buhay! Hindi sa na archive ng ibang tao.

[@eafewrgtrhththt]

People in Philippine are blessed and around the world too. Look at these famous people such as Charice, Manny Pacquiao, etc., and even these guys are gifted. Lucky people. Wish them to have a great journey!

[@sanne46]

There are gifted people all over the world!!!

[@andresantosmg]

I never had a father. If I could choose one, the father I've dreamed all my life is this, the man in this song. And if someday I could have a son like Aldrich, I'll be very proud.

[@sawdust6148]

He's so young yet he's such a technical singer. His riffs are amazing and I like the note transitions

[@stephanieanguiano1004]

Saw Dust thank God for his beautiful voice and the cousin’s guitar skills💕they’re so amazing

[@GSquid92]

He’s a girl

[@slimeboss7471]

[@indywip]

The kid sounds so American when he speaks English

[@marieangeliqueaguilar2264]

[@markusdana9000]

[@indywip]

+Marieangelique Aguilar a lot aren't. I'm a Filipino.

[@indywip]

+Markus Dana So?? I know that and a lot of Filipinos still have a hard time

[@kuhmlian9243]

[@RelaxingVibesSound]

I am in tears now. I Felt his soul when he sang the song. I miss my father so much.. Im sorry papa for everything. I like the song so much.. thankyou!!

[@normansalvador1957]

[@EduardMrDITO]

So so so so Beautiful, awesome, amazing. I haven't word for talk about the talent of this boy.

[@venecitalis]

Hermoso de verdad!!

[@lukasxanadu]

Ellen, you are amazing. I wish I met you in person. It's so nice of you to bring this kid into your program and let many people know how talented and humble this kid really is.

[@sharonb1316]

He is just amazing, thank you Ellen

[@dpor7683]

these two are just amazing - the guitarist is equally talented and i could listen to his instrumentals as easily as I love listening to the little guy sing. Together they are PURE CLASS!!! This is the kind of talent I love seeing, its at it purest! Well done boys, you're first class!

[@sascha0606]

he makes my tears come....beautiful

[@mariavillegas6263]

Wow...they're amazing, well done. Go filipinos!!!

[@iloveme5196]

it's 2019 and still amazed by his voice 😇

[@raine6821]

This kid moved me to tears and I RARELY cry 😢

[@KCCruz_]

Still watching this on Febaruary 2020

[@risanalla964]

Ellen God bless you and your show..thank you for helping ordinary people discover their talents and be able to show it to the whole world..

[@katieh.4509]

Anyone else feel like the talented guitarist cousin, who lost his uncle, gets a little overlooked? I'd like to know what he was given, since his cousin was given $10k, guitars, and a piano.... I love the duo though, I watch all their videos.

[@AmandaC11]

Wow I scrolled down to type almost the exact same thing. His cousin is just as talented as he is. They are.. a duo. And I think his guitar perfectly compliments them as such. I love Ellen to death but this was a sad oversight on her part I think.

[@MJMyrna]

At the end she turned to him and said they had stuff for him too.

[@AmandaC11]

She did but she treated him like an afterthought :-(

[@spitfiresr]

Amanda C I just noticed that, that made me very sad actually. Bad move on Ellen's part, it should have been equal.

[@starrgod7671]

MJMyrna Yes, she did. Thanks for noticing.

[@alecsanity9469]

Im from Philippines and Im also a filipino live here in Italy. Well I might say im proud to be a filipino!! You bring the filipino pride to the highest if the topic was about singing. Go for it!! Labaaaaan!! Mag tagumpay sana ang karera ng buhay nyo sa pag kanta.

[@erikalama5568]

[@stephenfrank9735]

Wow! That little kid speaks really well with a nice accent for an Asian kid

[@msbetsyful]

There's lots of Filipinos who speak English just as well. English is a common medium of instruction in schools there.

[@stephenfrank9735]

msbetsyful I was referring to his accent, not just his command of English.

[@lolsupimbob]

I agree. It's not annoying like most Filipino English accents XD (I'm filo I can say that lol). Must be cause he's from the GenSan area..

[@rodadatu3959]
