Congratulations on you playing the 'lead role' of Jesus in the stage musical "Jesus Christ Super Star" I know you'll smash it Michael....Hoping to see it!

Simply one of the finest vocalists around. Missed you Michael. Please keep posting.

[@DiHorwood]

We really do have some of the best singers in the world down under

[@almirlion]

I've known this song since you released the EP Love The Fall back in 2010 and tonight I watched this performance for the first time and was really moved by your vocal prowess and talent, it really did good to my heart.

[@janmortimer1758]

[@davidbarton5667]

How are you not a Superstar??? Incredible performance! One of the best male voices I have ever heard.

[@SNDreamerMusicNMore]

[@ASongz]

Such a shame real music is not being appreciated no more, amazing performance and vocals!

[@dannymedina1527]

I'm glad he's back. He's just one of the greatest vocalist in the world and he's my favorite personally. It's mind blowing how he's not known all around the world hopefully people can share this cause it was just a powerful and flawless performance with amazing vocal skills. Keep it up Michael we want more!! ❤️🔥👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼

He makes me emotional. That voice those notes

[@jimmyagates]

Superb. It's absolutely criminal how this guy isn't a household name while utter dross gets played to death on radio daily. We need a gig from Mr Paynter in Melbourne soon.- t's been way too long.

[@hendrikferdinand6787]

A beautiful song questioning one's ability to live and not just exist. Written and sung with heartfelt emotions. Keep on co-writing melodies like "Are You Alive" Michael. You have a soulmate in song. Wishing all your hearts desires in the foreseeable. Hendrik

He is simply an amazing performer, and the ladies did an awesome job with the background vocals also.

[@threadfix]

Where is your next performance?

[@LachyDoley]

Awesome!!!

[@Ranidana]

Great!

[@remoman]

Simply superb vocal performance... Killed it..

[@domerust6899]

Amazing voice and he certainly got the looks, but what happened? No new music, no new albums? I know he's been touring with Icehouse and that's pretty damn good, but he deserves so much more in solo career. So, what gives? Bad agent? Bad management? No record company? Come on, Michael!

Heyyy watch the documentary American gospel blessings
