I love his voice and styling. It always amazes me how Europeans can nail the American inflections in song.

[@sellammar1]

Considering his native tiunge is not English either its even more Amazing.

[@carinaejag]

Considering so many swedish song writers that actually have written and still writes songs for american artists I am pretty sure you get some influences from swedish style of music too.

[@kungpuk5186]

Well, we Swedes have been influenced by Americana since Glenn Miller and Bill Haley.

[@viikmaqic]

Just think of every big star ever, Im guessing alot of them have a song or more written by max martin (swedish)

[@sarainiaangelsong440]

He's basically all the past great artists reincarnated & congealed into 1 being, he is more on pitch & tune than autotune itself, heck he hits more notes than that software can ever produce, cuz even the transitions from note to note are their own notes, & anything between those even are still notes, only in the hands of Chris here wow, there is not even a plank length of time he is out of beat or off pitch, literally perfect even at micro time scales. This is the stuff all singers soo strive to achieve. :D
