I had heard that Whitney called him the best tenor she'd ever heard. She would have been proud to hear his version of her song 💖

[@dschlopes4321]

For one singer to have that power and agility at the same time is so crazy.

[@jeffreyb6165]

And he's 51 which makes it even crazier. Unbelievable

[@valleriebass2572]

David is the best tenor of all time!!! GOAT 🐐!!!!

[@tonischwarting6189]

He is ridiculously talented! What a gift from God!

[@theretrosavage]

David is 51 now...and still on top of his game

[@terrimorrison3164]

He is my favorite singer, tenor, storyteller in this world. So great. He did this song his way and it was great.

[@SchoeneTante]

This comes from David's new project, the DVD Stories and Songs Vol. One, recorded in an acoustic setting at his farm. He tells the stories behind some of the songs he's written and/or recorded during his career. And yes, he's always had the vocal runs in his solo work. Thanks for the reaction.

[@brendarobinson2154]

It was O Holy Night that you reacted to before. I'm so happy that you FINALLY reacted to David Phelps again. I've been waiting! You're correct that David is a Southern Gospel artist. He's won many Grammys and Dove awards. I could listen to his amazing voice all day! Thank you, TOPHER, for your fabulous reaction! You rock, Baby!!!!

[@colteberlemusic5668]

A D5 sustained at 51 years old!!!

[@MOOT0708]

I am amazed to see you reacting to David. I love him. He’s amazing in every way.

[@rhondasanford4223]

51 yrs old hitting a D5…..drop the mic‼️

[@Scsibut]

Love your reaction...love David Phelps...he's the master

[@sbh3216]

I love your passion for what you hear and not just the artist. How beautiful is the cello ensemble. The instrumentation is perfection, I think Whitney would have been pleased. David is amazing as always.

[@susanodell4538]

I loved your reaction and your explanation. I just love listening to David.

[@msmith5121]

Honestly, he is the best male vocalist in the world and has been for many years... and it is not even close.

[@lisaoehlers7403]

David is amazing!!! Thank you for your astute and amusing reaction, Topher! You described him and his treatment of this cover VERY well! God bless ❤️

[@debwebster6608]

" You better sustain this note, sir, yes sir..." ..

[@dekkadoll]

Thanks for your reaction! It was I Holy Night you reacted to before. He does a beautiful Nessa Dorma from his Classics dvd

[@yeshuabride-sherry3025]

Your reaction to David was O Holy Night and you were blown away. I've been surprised you haven't reacted to him since that time. This was a great, well-thought out reaction.

[@kdeloris2225]

Whitney would be proud

[@donnaovercash1659]

David does the arranging for most of his songs. That fact is so under-celebrated! He is indeed a musical genius!

[@kathryncallan9841]

You reacted to David's O Holy Night, which he knocked out of the park.

[@sherrygriffin9927]

David writes a lot of his music and he always re-arranges everything to be just a bit more unique. This one I appreciated very much that he kept the instrumentation simple and elegant and allowed the lyric and voice to sound out! He truly is a musical genius and yes, you would love his Nessun Dorma - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqfVXnyVfbGHgtU. His runs are well-known. His vocal flexibility and control are masterful! You see it in all his solo work.

[@theidealbt]

The cello arrangement was amazing

[@karleenmedaris2373]

I loved your ideas about David

[@donnaryan3223]

You know so much, Topher! I appreciate your reaction.

[@maxinefreeman8858]

I've only heard him sing Gospel. Great singer.

[@sharonboswell9037]

I adore you Topher. I just subscribed because you're not one to start and stop 100X throughout the artist's song. I'm loving your expressions...you are such a cutie AND your musical knowledge is up to par! David Phelps is my favorite...have you listened to "We Shall Behold Him?" You should, crazy good! Again, well done!

[@bridgetdouglas4593]

Please react to David phelps singing no more night

[@maxinefreeman8858]

I'm a country girl but I love those strings.

[@bettybryant913]

AWESOME AWESOME

[@brendarobinson2154]

David says he likes all music. He calls himself a stylist!

[@kens32052]

He was sing this song in the original key.

[@traceonthecase]

Topher, watch him sing "Water" with his daughter Maggie Beth. I just love watching you're reactions. I'm new to you and love watching.

[@craigbrown6437]

Could you please do a comparison video of who sang it best between David Phelps singing I have nothing vs Jessie J also singing I have nothing on the China singing competition in the year 2018? In this video i would like to hear your opinion as to which of these two singers you think sang this song the best and why (David Phelps or Jessie J).

[@marydearing1300]

Listen to David’s version of Nessus Dorma… David can sing anything !!!!

[@isaiahjohnston823]

No one can compete with Whitney Houston's exceptional voice!!!

[@davidchase1439]

Best tenor in world assumed Luciono mantle

[@guttomoreno8825]

That`s so beautiful....have you tried Gabriel Henrique singing the same song? Check him out!

[@jimward8510]

And in the same key as Whitney

[@donnaryan3223]

Topher, I seriously suspect you are not a natural blonde!

[@whirlybird5244]

Not relevant for this reaction. Stay on topic.

[@wendellnelson1118]

Enjoyed your other reactions, but on this one, I wish you had paid more attention to what you were watching instead on singing along. But that's just my one opinion.

[@TopherReacts]

That’s fair…is there something in particular you feel I missed?

[@dsansburynmo]

@@TopherReacts I agree you were talking at a key point where the cellist played a superb part [6:02] on the cello. When I listened/watched David's video, I had to rewind several times at that spot because it was magnificent playing on her part. Please, don't sing along. 😐

[@wrighttiffany]

i just saw this...what a great reaction! if you love watching his unbelievable technique (particuarly his vowels), check this out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j3qbipRvhtNmeZY. you can't tell his As from his Es or Os. just phenomenal!

[@wrighttiffany]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z36YXq2ZeKaXppo also this one. plus you can see how he uses his body to get some of the big notes out. just so amazing!
