[@habiebiee1]

of course Nick can sing,he came from a time with no auto tune.

[@yvettewinkler5152]

Autotune has been around for ages.

[@maruk091]

@Yvette Winkler this is a late comment but Nick Carter was in the Backstreet Boys they started in '93. However autotune came out '96. So AP Wong's statement is correct.

[@Rensune]

​@@yvettewinkler5152 it wasn't used that often. Not until the mid 2000's

​@@ChaseLoweMusicbut they are always sings Acapella.

[@charmainerichardson4012]

I need you to say it again yesss I 100% agree

[@annagornas3572]

To sing like this after your voice being in use for almost 30 years is an achievement.

[@brianrosemusician]

He has this unmistakable little squeak going into and coming out of big notes. Any BSB fan knew it was him all along. He's always been awesome.

[@anni1773]

Every BSB Fan recognize this voice from the first notes

[@RegienaldCGayaman]

My wife and son would recognise his voice in an instant. His is their favourite BSB. We’ve been to their DNA tour in Sydney this year (on my son’s birthday) and my son and wife had a blast!

[@Caleboosaurus]

Yeah right 😂

[@yuliet22]

I agree with you 100%

[@adey126]

Yup.

[@MissSunset84]

Real Backstreet Boys Fans knew when he start singing "Open arms". Back to the 90s Nick sang this song and it was a big thing for us fans. We remember!!

[@K67115]

yup...you can totally tell it's him from the voice lol

[@zoeybeth88]

Remember it like yesterday ❤

[@buffyfan2122]

I know right away for this song

[@samanthaclark5724]

My first thought when he started singing was “How does no one know who this is??!!”

[@Lynz713]

I cant believe how he has held onto such a youthful voice for so long! He was always my favorite 🥰

[@Astrid0821]

How is that voice not easily recognizable? Ever heard "I Need You Tonight"? He's always been an amazing vocalist.

[@amandasherman8686]

That was always a favorite song of mine! It’s still in my playlist to this day.

[@thatgalrebecca]

Right!!

[@tahidl9174]

I am pretty sure that Robin and Nicole have to pretend sometimes. It’s cool that the wife of a boybander gets it correct. I’m happy Crocodile is the one participant I had 0 doubts about since the first season. Disappointed I doubted my other boybander but I never heard his voice prominent like Nick Carter

[@thephyuwinkyi6199]

Nick is a full package. He has beautiful face , amazing voice and tender heart. I’m your 4ever fan Nick .

[@annie-lf5bs]

Exactly what he is❤

And he's from the era of no auto tune ,, he's a great vocalist 👌🙏

[@pearlypagorogon]

He still sounds like a teenage dream ❤️

[@katrinablingz]

He is probably one of the biggest, most talented singers they ever had on there. Nick's voice is on a whole different level for sure!

Taylor dayne blows him away

[@iago07]

*Amber Riley enters the chat*

[@babybobs6]

That is one of the most recognisable voices in American pop - have no idea how most of them did not know

[@vocalbooth8585]

Of course they knew. This entire show is scripted within an inch of its life

How do people in the industry not recognize his voice

[@ILOVEDAVIDCAVAZIS]

I imagined him featuring Steve Perry on this song

[@voxxxxxxxi]

As soon as he started singing I knew it was him! His voice is iconic 90’s/00’s

[@johnpaulalcaraz3093]

[@eb4676]

Lip sync was a thing as well so many 80s and 90s singers I can make a list sing horrid live.

[@ragnaice]

I don't believe for a second all these 'reality' shows aren't scripted from beginning to end and when they are putting forward guesses like Howie or AJ that's just to make the viewers who know yell at their screens :'D

[@jhanturandall2519]

As weird as it is the brilliance of this show is allowing established artists to show what they’re capable of purely by voice instead of image. I was never a fan of this era but no doubt this man can sing and connect

[@loodiamexican]

He needs to do an album of classic rock covers.

[@shannonmarie4335]

Totally second this!

[@orshi215]

He is the perfect example of how you can turn your life around, be happy, in the present and just a great father and husband! He could have gone the other way considering his parents, siblings and fame, but he didn't. Good for you Nick!! 💝💞

[@cpdfan41]

😢😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤❤Nick has the kind of voice that can pierce the coldest heart. He's soft , yet powerful!! This song showcases his range and beauty. Gosh. He makes me cry sometimes.

[@JL-zn7me]

Absolutely, without a doubt… the BEST ever! Nick has talent that is out of this world! I love his voice, but I had NO idea he could effortlessly sing so many different genres! Aerosmith and Journey had me crying… he’s unbelievable!

[@barbwalker8464]

News flash it's 1genre Rock and Roll . Each band Journey, Aerosmith Bon Jovi are considered Rock bands .. genres are Rap, Country Rock etc so unless he sang songs other than from Rock bands he only sang 1genre. Just different bands

[@nadinewiezi]

Yes he can singing many genre and he sang britney song in masked singer that changed crocodile image turn be sexy. im shock in a rare vidio nick sang opera in very high notes for fun thats annoyed another bsb members cause he out of line. he can eat pop,rock, r&b, EDM in the bsb albums as main singer. In vancouver nick sang rap hip hop

[@amylee8969]

@ J L Yup. Makes me proud to be a Bsb fan for 24 years and to call Nick my first celebrity crush.

[@lottasunshine1325]

I am reading the comments and don't understand why people think he's old. He started singing with the Back Street Boys when he was 12. He's only 42 in this video. Unfortunately, some singers lose their voices because they strain them too much, but 40-something isn't old.

[@bennyrosialda]

This version of Open Arms is amazing! Wow!

[@ninamo7969]

Don't underestimate Nick Carter, cause he's got 1 of the best most versatile male voices‼

[@boy10413]

Maybe but for me It's Brian Litrrel of Bsb ,Shane Filan WL and ofcourse Gary BarlowTt...those lead vocalist are the most versatile on their respective bands...

[@ninamo7969]

@@boy10413 Westlife, Backstreet Boys, Blue, Take That and Boyzone are the boybands I like the most. Who's voice you like the most is subjective. With Westlife and Backstreet Boys I can't choose one over the other band member. When it comes to an objective opinion about vocal range, pitch and versatility....It's fair to say Mark Feehily and Nick Carter are the best of their bands.

[@robertchutonogbanua2564]

Great performance, Nick! I bet Steve Perry and Jonathan Cain are really proud of that performance. There is an interesting backstory to "Open Arms". When Jonathan Cain first joined Journey in 1981, Steve Perry met with Jonathan and said, "I want to do a ballad." In response, Jonathan said to Steve, "Journey does ballads?" Then Jonathan started playing a song that he originally wrote for John Waite, the former lead singer of The Babys, but John Waite outright rejected the song, saying that it was "sentimental rubbish". So Jonathan played the song for Steve Perry, who said, "Too bad for John, but good for us (Journey)." So Jonathan and Steve went on to record "Open Arms" with a little reluctance from Journey guitarist Neal Schon for the album "Escape". "Open Arms" went on to become a #2 single on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1982.

[@dchang11]

I remember Aaron Carter's Cribs episode, where he shared the family's record collection and mentioned Journey as his favorite group. Nick probably chose the song to reflect his childhood before the family was ripped apart and the bond with his younger brother.

[@amandafiery6740]

I am a fan, but didn't recognize the voice! He is a great singer! I wonder if the allegations are true or not. I liked the boy bands until they were ruined by LP! Masked Singer is a good chance for all the celebs on it to be themselves, or explore a new side they didn't know they have! BUT the masks can make it hard to recognize the real singers.
