[@GladyDumale]

I have been listening to this countless times from the knockout day. So powerful rendition. Hes like telling a story full of emotions😢❤. I love this! I pray you win Sofronio!

[@villamarjo]

This is an emotional and spectacular performance by our very own Sofronio Vasquez. Who can't be proud of this talented guy?

[@AmparotayagYamakawa]

Yes ❤️

[@ghost-wh3ic]

That was a great song choice by Buble for Sofronio! Spectacular version he really owns that 1965 song

[@dennisminon1486]

[@El_.5794]

He can raise up the dead with his natural vibrato and raspy voice here and there

[@ronaldoderoxas234]

Wow what a great performance ano ther Filipino champio. Congrats andgod bless you always.

[@ZamboangaHermosa]

Im so familiar with this song and you just made me go back in time in style. This is a PERFECT performance❤️

[@winstonespanola190]

I cannot tell how many times I hit the replay button to watch his performance over and over again because it really is spectacular. Actually, what Snoop said to his performance is "magnifico". And he wants to tanslate it to tagalog and asked Michael if what is the filipino term of magnificent, and Michael replied, its "SOFRONIO". 😂... I just can't get over with this performance. 😘👌

[@Conching]

Crying is an old song by Roy Orbison, early 60's. It's been a long time I hear this. Bring back memories

[@ichanEvangelio]

Bublè picked the song for Sofronio and he nailed it!! ❤❤

[@bebsvlogph4195]

Not all the songs chilling,you will use your heart to feel that wonderful performance.

[@joelperez4024]

Coach Michael was actually the one who chose this 'crying' from Roy Orbison in the 60's hit songs and Sofronio gave new life or version to the song which sounded very contemporary as Coach Michael always expected from Sofronio that he didn't fail to deliver with such superb rendition as if it is his original song. Congrats Sofronio for advancing to the next round and good luck to your next performance. 👍💯💖🎤🔥🔥🔥

[@RosabelleLopez]

Yes glad Michael choose it one of my favourite song so touching😢🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@RosabelleLopez]

Love also Don Mcleane version in the 70"s🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@reginadionessaddi6961]

me too

[@islandgirl8199]

The problem is with you if you’re not having chills while listening to him.

[@deliaakyapat1719]

Spectacular voice bravooo 🎉🎉👏👏👏👏

[@rowmon7578]

‘Crying’ was a very big hit in 1961, then popularized again by Don McLean in 1978. It such a beautiful song, and Sofronio made it his own🥰

[@tagaloboc1]

Right song choice.. beautiful message. What a performance of Sofronio! I love the quality of his voice and the way he controls it. He got my vote, and I will continue voting for him this coming Monday.

[@EfrenTambio]

SOFRONIO V realY deserve the crown for The Voice USA he has the total package FILIPINOS world wide supported him all the way and the Philippine ARCHIPELAGO is glorified😂❤❤❤

[@annelabastera9699]

A star is born ❤

[@singingdad98]

A Star is Born!!!!!

[@SalomeRodriguez-ok5nf]

Go go go Sofronio Vasquez God bless you kababayan👏👏👏🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@RosalindaSibala]

This was Roy Orbison song and even Don MC Lean sang this song....and now my kababayan Sofronio sang it well❤

[@vanjie2146]

Pasok sa top 8 si sofronio.sana tlga siya manalo.congrats sofronio❤❤❤excited para sa live next week

[@inspiredencouraged3201]

GO SOFRONIO! MAY GOD BLESS YOUR JOURNEY ON THE VOICE USA! PROUD TO BE PINOY!!!🎉🎉🎉🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@hanielgaribay7623]

That's Crying in the 21st century. I know the song well. I heard it originally sung by Roy Orbison and covered by Don Mclean. The arrangement is fantastic and Sofronio brilliantly delivered it. Spectacular indeed!

[@vicespi58]

And also superbly sang by KD Lang as a tribute to Roy Orbison

[@marjunmarcelocristobal2678]

Utica + Philippines== SOFRONIO!!

[@maryrosefoisset2091]

I am also not familiar with the song at first but when I google the song with the original artist and compared it with Sofronio Version of the song, I was amazed how he put emotions to it and his voice is just incredible.

[@apieceofsky1]

I used to hear the song when I was younger. When he sang it I was trying to remember that it was an old song. His rendition of Crying is superb. Roy Orbison the original singer will be proud. Way to go Sofronio. Way to go. Will vote for you at the Finale! Already told my friends and kamag-anak to vote for you here in the U.S.

[@andresureta6043]

What a spectacular performance! The connection between the coach and the singer is made manifest by the latter's performance. So proud to be Pinoy!

[@LitaMiller-qf6lt]

This song was originally sung by the great perfect pitch legend Roy Orbison! But i tell you, Dodong Sofronio is just as good, because he did justice to the song. Roy Orbison would have been so proud!

[@napoleontinapay7570]

Sofronio Philippines pride go go go 🇵🇭

[@bjsoil4478]

Crying by Roy Orbison..the same artist who popularized Pretty Woman...quite popular song for those in the "know"...know the lyrics of the song...then listen again how he achingly conveyed the story thru the power of his singing...only then can you feel the chills, man! People familiar with the song, myself included, felt it❤ "I was alright for a while, I could smile for a while Then I saw you last night, you held my hand so tight When you stopped to say, "Hello" You wished me well, you couldn't tell That I'd been crying over you Crying over you then you said, "So long" Left me standing all alone Alone and crying, Crying, crying, crying It's hard to understand That the touch of your hand Can start me crying I thought that I was over you But it's true, so true I love you even more than I did before But darling what can I do? For you don't love me and I'll always be Crying over you Crying over you Yes, now you're gone And from this moment on I'll be crying, crying, crying, crying, Crying, crying, over you"

[@CupsAndFlour]

I watched this performance many times and it always gives me chills every time he's giving his power on belting and still the emotion is there. Goosebumps!!!

[@Barror1997]

He's killing this song..awesome version..he completely made this his own

[@donaldduck-om6xf]

Me too , I heard that song just now same of sofronio too😊. They say it's Micheal Buble favorite song that he wanted to sung by Sofronio for the battle and it goes so amazing!

[@sandmanJMH]

Tip: You'll be able to appreciate "more" Sofronio's version when you hear first the original version (it's a bit mellow down country type of song). He really "owned" this one. 😉

[@CoachA181]

I like the way you give your opinion and observation. You bring up and out even the small but important detail that others might have not seen it yet.

[@musicgamenews]

Thank you po

[@FloripesDerksen-ce6dh]

Just perfect🥰👍❤️

[@El_.5794]

You don’t need to be familiar with a song to get a vibe. Just listen to the music and if the performer connects to you doesn’t matter if it’s in English or foreign language… That’s how music transcends. It evoke emotions, create shared experiences beyond social and cultural boundaries. With its rhythm, melody and harmony, music is universal. Even a rapper like Snoop appreciates music like that. He said, it’s like watching a movie and with Sofronio singing is like the end of a movie.

[@danilopablo7519]

Thanks for the good words for sofronio...jndeed sofronio is an amazing singer. Hes the pinoy pride

[@VirgilioTelmo]

WHAT A VOICE! If he doesn’t win, his career will be better than all other combine!

[@PabloSimbajon-r6y]

His Version is Better than the Original

[@ElviePadua-b3q]

I agree and beyond, I heard it first time from Sofronio, then I searched for the original, what 1960s.... Sofronio reincarnated the song totally emotionally moving.

[@LouieSaz]

👏👏👏 No matter what happens he's the best

[@TheGeorgeDmax]

Are you kidding me Ovela 😅 "CRYING" is one of my favorite song from my favorite Classic Artist DON MCLEAN CRYING is a classic emotionally charged song... You better listen to the original of Don Mclean... But i would say SOFRONIO Nailed the song and had a Modern Touch to it while maintaining the Full Emotions of the song... Don Mclean is a LEGEND himself

[@El_.5794]

It’s a cover song not an original

[@MrMidnytsnack]

Filipinos really love singing!

[@celestialdrums486]

Same listening experience here. It didn’tgive me chills in the beginning but men, I’m telling you, play the video again again and that goosebumps will hit you.

[@operanbi]

Listening the second and third time to be familiar with the song helps to appreciate the song and the performance better. I listened to the original version and some covers, i can say Sof's version brought the song to a new level.

[@aleckg5291]

Im glad im not the only one. All his performance was good but I thought something is off the first time I played it. But everytime I rewatched his performance, I dont know but it keeps getting better and better the more I replay it. This happened multiple times in his other performances as well.

[@susieapura]

Congrats Sofronio, God Bless you, so much more!

[@wilfredomacaldo9755]

I felt I'm breathlessly flying too when Softonio delivers his multiple last ending notes soaring high like an eagles flying so high on the sky. ... so exploding so spectacular !!! ending...

[@mikej.9194]

It's surreal... absolutely lovely and enchanting that I am addicted to this performance

[@jobysalado322]

Hes a storyteller singing his heart out...im watching his performances too many times..so great hope he will win as he advances already to d top 5

[@jeromechickboy7919]

Congratulations sopronio first Asia win the voice of America

[@DennisFernan]

It's the other way around! I don't even know the song but the way he sang that song I've felt every word he said and gave me chills.

Amazing performance. You made us all Pinoy proud. Congratulations 😊

[@KeiraJeanne]

I didn’t know the song either but I knew for sure his version was way better.

[@gilbertmagtibay1699]

I, myself doesn’t know the song. But when I heard him sang it, it became one of my favorite songs of all time. I suggest, we need to see the original rendition of the song so we can compare it more. BRAVO SOFRONO! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@El_.5794]

The original is of Roy Orbison which is just simply sang with no vocal calisthenics nor vibrato but beautiful indeed in his time.

[@rodorawilliams2795]

I don't get tired of watching him over and over agai.

[@teresatotanes3221]

you are my number one of all the Filipino joined all over the world whooohoooo..i wish you win 🙏🙏🙏and show the world whos the best!!

[@artd8780]

It was my first time to hear that song but I was in tears after hearing it from him. I guess it resonated with me so well that I fell in love with it right away.

[@juvyosorio8115]

Grabe! Sobrang galing mo Sofronio😊😊😊....nakaka proud maging Pinoy. Goodluck sa sunod mo pang laban...Ipagdadasal kita na manalo. Grabe! Inaabangan ko lagi ang sunod mong laban❤❤❤....God Bless you Sofronio

[@mariaagco2192]

Good morning, Ovela. I am super proud and I'm a fan of Sofronio. He will face some tough competition with the other contestants as they are also very talented. However, I believe that he will persevere and win. We support you and will be voting for you, Sofronio!!!❤️❤️❤️

He is also from the Philippines ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@aliciabacongan1760]

Superb, Sofronio! Thanks for reviving that song!

I am not familiar with the song but after watching it 20 times, I started to feel the chills especially in the 2nd half.

[@akiinyaki]

Always love your reactions!! AND WELCOME HOME TO THE PHILIPPINES

If u didn’t felt chills at the beginning then u did on the last part! 😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@SirJeff1956]

Sofronio is the VOICE 2024❤❤❤

[@operanbi]

5:56 when he shifted the note is "soo pinoy". Totally agree with this comment. Its a usual kind of arrangement when one watch a Philippine tv variety show

[@neriadajalosjalnaiz1257]

You are the best at reacting to everyone who reacted. Thank you, I enjoyed your comments. Muwahh😘GOD BLESS 🙏

[@NemiaMonard]

So proud of Sofronio! I throw a lot of Wows and oh my goodness ❤👏🏻❤

[@solallenbautista5220]

Yep. Most of his song arrangements have build up goin on like classic Filipino Classic Ballads. So nice to hear it in the Voice US.

[@JoseAdriano-c2m]

Good luck Sofronio I know you can make it 👍👏👏🌟😍

[@josephineaman5517]

Wow it's really wow!! He made it his own song.

[@Dontmeha]

This song is a very famous Roy Orbison classic.

[@El_.5794]

Yes, the original and classic but Sofronio gave a wrenching emotional and in depth rendition

Love love love for Sofronio

I do hope Sofronio will win ❤

[@harviemaya6971]

I still can't believe you are now living here in the Philippines Ovela haha ❤ hope you stay more longer than before haha stay safe

[@ArtiesAmazingWorld]

Try searching for the song Crying to compare it with Sofronio's. It was originally done by Roy Orbison then revived by KD Lang. I would say that Sofronio's is totally different. It's like a totally different song.

[@rednueva2625]

Winner ❤❤❤❤

[@RolandoAbalajon]

Next The Voice Winner.....The best!

[@tuting1965]

I dont think so, no matter how good you are they always choose their homegrown talent

[@onepab01]

He needs to get the American votes and it will be difficult. Perhaps try a power ballad country song next to serve notice to the country music fans. Let’s get real here, country singers have an edge in The Voice USA.

[@estelalunag4019]

Sofronio!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@BettyMullins-tc8yz]

Magnificent 😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤

[@equalizerq5]

Oh my.. Listening to his songs reminded me of voices combined or maybe style with both Gary Valenciano and Martin Nievera. Great Vocalist indeed!

I also hope Jophil Cece (his batchmate from Tawag ng Tanghalan Year All-Star Grand Resbak - Philippine National TV Singing Contest) will also join The Voice next season. They are the two underrated semi-finalists from Tawag ng Tanghalan ever since. The best of the best!!! Sofronio Vasquez and Jophil Cece!!!*

I know that song and I really miss hearing it because it's hard to find the video since it's a bit old already. Galing mo Sofronio I really Hope you'll be the champ for this season of The Voice!
