Thanks so much for your comments, it really means a lot x

[@carylbarnett7448]

+Kevin Simm Music It was beautiful

[@TheBloodytaste]

+Kevin Simm Music I really think you gonna win this, or at least you have a shot. It's not that everyone else is not good everyone deserves to be going on. But when I see you sing you do it not only with your voice but with your whole self. And I think this is way Ricky was drawn to you at the blinds, battles, knockouts etc. Your Couch knows his shit.

[@PNW_Marxist]

+Kevin Simm Music mate you deserve every one of them, if you don't win this a crime will have been committed - you are phenomenal, sir. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

[@Nexus7even]

+Kevin Simm Music You're excellent mate.

[@matthewdonovan1240]

You totally deserve to win. No doubt about it you are the Voice 2016. You're our winner and every vote I place will be for you. Your voice is amazing.

[@timatack]

Hey Kevin. My name's Tim Atack. I co-wrote this song with Des'ree and i only just saw this. You really smashed it my friend!.. Great version!!. Well done man keep it up and Don't ever stop!!..

[@kman058110]

If this is actually Tim Atack, yes he did co-write this with Des'ree.

[@zatarawood3588]

it was such a stunning version, which brought a new angle to the song, it should be put out there as a single. Isn't there a label which could do this?

[@timatack]

TMT TOO MUCH TECH : I'm afraid you'll find I did and was just passing on my comments. You need to work on your research !!.😂

[@jimboslice3451]

Dont lie

[@evetucker2979]

Your writings amazing!!

[@acerconticchio999]

My friend had Kevin sing at his wedding, watching his wife walking down the isle listening to this live was incredible, literally gave me goosebumps. He was such a lovely down to earth guy aswell. He should have blown up way bigger than he did

[@MandyAmsterdam]

In my eyes the winner of the Voice 2016!! Every time he sings he gives me goosebumps.

[@adylake5152]

Kevin,I lost my dear Mum to cancer in December last year, hearing you on the voice makes my heart lift again, my mum would have loved you,I cannot wait for your album to hit the shops,you so deserve this.Ady lake

[@roselove4499]

One of best male singers ever heard gives me goosebumps. Go Kevin’s

[@DMDBOTH]

Absolutely stunning rendition!❤️❤️❤️

[@helens3693]

I love Kevin, he has a fantastic voice and is just so humble

[@KingBatiatus]

The hype is warranted! Sometimes we get lost in all the stage props, large screens and flashy visuals that we forget that this show is called "The Voice" - luckily, Kevin is there to remind us. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!

[@endahsriwulan6767]

Absolutely briliant

[@janetann9823]

Another fabulous performance Kevin.....I really hope your career takes off again, whether you win or not, you deserve it.

[@annec42]

Heaven. Heaven. Heaven. Just so beautiful. We had to sit through will.i.am and Paloma's teams to get here, but it was worth the wait.

[@arsenalmanic]

+Anne C we had to sit through... :)))

[@moonbeamtipi5598]

This touches my soul and gives me goosebumps every single time I play this. Kevin Simms, you are so amazing and brilliant, I get tears in my eyes. Thank you! Truly outstanding, Sir!

[@ems564]

i actually love the song choice and i think it suits Kevin's voice perfectly

[@bodystorm]

I can't stop listening to this. Such an authentic voice. His falsetto was so much better in this performance. Beautiful.

[@paulnewman4624]

Came across this guy on KZbin. Never watched the voice or any talent show . I made a comment before which I deleted stating as good as this guy is, the music industry will see him as too old. I retract that now because after listening some more to him I feel that he's so good that he could still have a good career ahead of him. Great voice

[@matthewnormanton5390]

this version is absolutley awesome cant stop listening to it

[@dannii39]

me too

[@missdeedee4370]

Kevin has such a great voice! He seems like a really lovely genuine guy. His modesty is endearing too. I'd love him to win.

[@dragonkissed2099]

stunning... never thought Deseree could be topped on this one.... Keving, you gave me goosebumps...

[@tybaltcapulet6212]

[@erversonpaixao581]

Unbelievable Kevin!

[@SamanthaHayley]

Love that high note on 1.50! Amazing ! x

[@virgosun79]

I still listen to this often. Wish it were on an album. So beautiful.

[@74deltaromeo]

I love this song, make me feel like theirs someone out there for us all.

[@fpinnteo5094]

Kevin's voice is insane. Not sure how I feel about the song choice, but Kevin can sing his face off.

[@jchneo26]

F Pinnteo you joking this is one of the most beautiful songs ever made

[@choochiefreddy]

Absolutely stunningly beautiful!!❤

[@staciecole2349]

he sooo needs to release this AMAZING

[@RyannBarton]

Such a hard song to sing just like Chandelier was in the blinds but he has pulled both of them off and that shows how strong his voice really is.

[@oOcitizenOo]

That wasn't the winner's song, but in this performance Kevin showed his true feelings and soul filling each word. It was too obvious when Ricky chose Kevin, but i'm glad he's still through the Voice.

[@Dawneigh]

This just makes the hairs on my arms stand on end.....I had to listen to every song from the voice again tonight. What a shame that it has taken this long to recognise an amazing voice! But you know what......if things were different, he might not have his very beautiful wife and children. I'm a firm believer in things are meant to be.... I hope as a family you make the most of this time. Fabulous xxxx

[@AugustEverywhere]

Such a splendid, emotion-filled rendition of the song. Exemplary job, Kevin!

[@DrCarolineLloyd]

My favourite singer of the competition and my favourite performance - so emotional- amazing!

[@dorispurvis4942]

I have listened to this over and over... If he released this song in the morning, I would buy it. Really hope he wins... Pure talent, no gimmicks.

[@jiyu9277]

Okay, I need to go and watch Romeo and Juliet now

[@sociajl751]

Always a good choice

[@Angels247fly]

Wow this brought tears to my eyes...Absolutely over the moon you won last night Kevin..Wish you all the best for the future..

[@juliemoore6436]

So good, it made me cry.

[@kazzybaby466]

Wow goosebumps from head to toe amazing

[@hrhodes4422]

Can't stop listening oh my god so goood

[@TheDragonboy9571]

AMAZING... Gives me chills. best voice..ever. will be voting to win. want to buy album now.

[@justnadja2109]

Oh my Lord, incredibly beautifully interpreted.

[@deborahfrost610]

OMG Kevin AMAZING voice ♡♡♡... I said from your very 1st audition you would win... Your voice is mesmerising and I could listen to you all day... What a Star ☆☆☆.. Well done Kevin very well deserved xxx

[@AbuChanOfficial]

wow..tears in my eyes

[@Matthew118]

One of my favourite songs of all time is "Kissing You" by Des'ree. Kevin gave a beautiful performance. His voice is amazing. Can't wait to see/hear the brilliant solo career he's gona have. The guys a gem :-)

[@annoldfield1404]

I play this over and over again and it is only getting better.

[@jonsa270]

+Ann Oldfield Totally agree! :)

[@angelis1179]

As soon as I saw Kevin first performance I knew he would go far in this competition!! should he win, which I hope he does, or if not...then it would be a travesty if he wasn't signed and got some albums released!! Good luck Kevin!!!!!👍

[@testtube43]

He should be an international star

[@jimipurple123]

He was.

[@traceyreid2309]

I absolutely adore this song and Kevin sang it beautifully! goosebumps..again. Love his voice!

[@caiomarsiglia20]

The Champion!!

[@smellyshoes1]

i think kevin Simm will win this. thats for sure. i mean vocally, obviously hes the best. KEEP IT UP KEVIN.

[@bangbangbbe2532]

And the winner is kevin!! no doubt!!

[@TheBladdyblah123]

unbelievable . I have never ever heard any body sing this beautiful ever

[@anonoumos]

i love this song!! (always reminds me of romeo and juliet movie) i dont know what the coaches were bsing about, ricky was totally right, they felt threatened. this was amazing

[@MyKathleen2009]

he's the winner by a long shot.. would love to hear him sing in the arms of angel or this years love!

[@lindajeffreys2787]

Brilliant vocals again tonight thoroughly deserve to go through to the semi's

[@emsdesi1458]

#TeamRicky So glad Kevin & Ricky had the bravery to let his performance sit in the stillness as that song should! His tone and emotion reverberated right through to my screen, captivating and worthy of its original artist & also it's place in the OST of Romeo & Juliet's Epic Story. Lyrics & Intent like that need this staging treatment & focus.

[@hamhose33]

Great job.. Beautiful voice

[@mariellagriesser1950]

My heart breaks everytime when i hear you magnificent voice💔

[@juliaborovska2819]

so happy Kevin is a winner! amazing voice and performances!

[@joaquinamarques8205]

Amazing Voice... Timor-Leste Loves you...

[@zoransekeres3985]

Omg. What an incredible singer.

[@Artis341]

We all need Kevin Simm Music in our lives. Never give up! Your amazing!

[@fatimakhan4366]

omg he alwayss kills the original song by farrrr😚😙

[@davidbradley3377]

this guy is pure class no one on this show could have sung this song nearly as good

[@JuliFox]

you are a pprfect singer

[@DaniF8492]

I adore this song and he smashed it out of the park. Desree’s version gives me goosebumps and now this version does too

[@jellymcrazy6341]

Absolutely breath taking - never hide yourself in a band again Kevin - it would be an injustice to the world!! xx

[@anjantoniagrayson-hart3779]

This guy could sing the phone book and smash it well done 🔥

[@BecciBex]

you are so much better as a solo artist. All that talent ♡

[@paulcoverdale7169]

Amazing voice amazing person. I hope Kevin wins as he draws you in with each performance. Amazing.

[@michaelb2685]

Beautiful version!!!

[@berlinair1416]

Good song and good candidate for the Eurovision Song Contest.... Gääähhhnnn....

[@yoongjini]

This is what I want to hear from Kevin!!!!! He just so nailed it!!! lol

[@MrRoobear2901]

I have championed you from the outset Kevin. This song is simply beautiful. I look forward to you performing in concert and releasing your album. I am a huge Gary Barlow fan and wish he would write for you. Lots of warm wishes for your future. XX

[@matthewdonovan1240]

Amazing. Kevin just gets better each time I listen. Love his voice. You 100% deserve to win. You are the voice 2016 and I'm voting for you every week. You're incredible.

[@sandymcleod7179]

You singing "Kissing You" had me crying like a baby. It made me so emotional thinking about my wee girl I lost...that was beautifully sung.

[@duckworthlewisyo3826]

💔💗💔 xxx

[@katierussell6279]

So pleased you won the Voice. You were my favourite from the beginning. Stunning rendition of one of my all time favourite songs.

[@Dashcam_Heaven]

Sorry but that is pure quality.

[@elksu1964]

Kevin's voice is insane. I'd love him to win.

[@missannicherry]

His voice is awesome !!!!

[@shiubi13]

The more I listen to Kevin's version of this song, the more I want to listen to it. Its keeps getting better and better. I just can't get enough of this. Replay button on forever. Kevin makes it so special, so emotional. My soul, heart and brain are in heaven. When I listened the song on the show I was in love, but kind of agreed with Will I Am and Boy about the song choice. I thought that Kevin could sing something else to show his powerful voice, but after a listened the song a couple of more times I just can't believe that another song can make me feel so much. Kevin and Ricky went for emotion and I think they nailed it!

[@jonsa270]

+shiubi13 Spot on!! I did actually like the song choice, but having listened to it again (and again and again...) I realise just how clever the song choice was. It's rare to hear that kind of emotion in someone's voice in a competition like The Voice. The one thing Kevin has that the others seem to lack is the ability to live and tell a story when he sings. I wonder if will.i.am and Boy George have had a chance to re-listen to this and realise that their comments were (almost) unfair?

[@shiubi13]

+jonsa75 I think Will I Am is more into fireworks, dances, short skirts and nice legs. He is too concentrated on what it looks like. I doubt that he or BG would change their minds, but 'hey' that is why we are different and we appreciate different things in a performance. I am just glad that somebody feels the way I do about Kevin's performance. I really hope to see him as a winner.

[@jonsa270]

+shiubi13 You're right about will.i.am but I do like him from an amusing point of view. Considering the blind auditions are meant to block out the judges' opinions of 'voice vs image', he does seem to like the look of people more than how they sound (proof is when he HAD to settle for the final contestant last year because he hung on too long, and it backfired cos he was left with the worst contestant in the series). I got the impression that BG and Will were a little envious so they were more than a little unfair with some of their comments. I despise judges on any show when they say "I liked it, BUT..." I've yet to hear Ricky say such a thing about anyone's performance. He's too classy for that kind of claptrap! Anyway, makes no odds because you and I know who should be the winner ;)

[@jameshamilton7776]

Kevin this is amazing.

[@sarapocock4671]

I cried so much at this! I really hope he wins, by far the best contestant the voice has ever had xx

[@goofyboy2627]

Not exactly to my taste, but I can hear an impressive vibrato in his voice.

[@glenjamesallen]

Outstanding - PLEASE Put this on your album dude!!

[@catydieu1552]

je suis belge et regarde the voice UK chaque année. Cette année j'attendais avec impatience la semaine suivante pour vous écouter. Voix extraordinaire et beaucoup d'humilité. Un super artiste à suivre absolument. J'attends l'album avec impatience. Best wishes for you.

[@amandastanley2781]

Absolutely killed it. Amazing talent right there 🔥🔥

[@carolef3033]

I watched The Voice and enjoyed the performance but the more I listen the more I love it. I think this is beautiful, it makes me feel good. Thank you Kevin.

[@tatianahewitson2952]

This song just keeps giving. Stunning.

[@kostaspapas5985]
