[@olafvanderzwan7835]

@Jack Xerox The whole point of "The Voice" is not to be judged on skincolour or how you look... People like you are making blm look like a joke

[@mirkobaumann316]

Unbedingt

[@kingdick4508]

I know Mr. Thunderstorm, and I know his brothers, I know his mom, and I knew his father Ron. I remember his father playing the grand piano in his living room. He came from a good, wholesome family. The last time I saw him he was playing drums. He’s a hardworking guy who will go on to do great things. Hats off…

[@bf1822]

Hopefully he use his talent for God and not those folks in Hollyweird.

[@elyanabela1397]

Best i've ever heard that song it is now that i can feel that song

[@patriciahand2223]

@@elyanabela1397 First I've ever heard that song. And I felt it.

[@patriciahand2223]

@@bf1822respectfully, I understand though not all are. My prayer is his talent maintains it's purity and uniqueness.

[@christeab]

You can see he is from an amazing family!

[@michaeladdy8735]

This guy literally brings peace to the spirit, soul and body. His voice is so calm ❣️

[@marvapriestley8322]

Thunderstorm is a Calming Musician for our stressful times...

[@nickpassion123]

Kinda ironic considering his name is Thunderstorm

[@willm3539]

When you hear someone for the first time and you know 100% you would listen to a whole album they sing. For me he is one of less than 10 people I felt this with and i have watched a lot of singing shows and musicians.

[@annievillanueva2345]

Agree he is not only a singer he is a musician artist

[@alicemahomes6976]

Singing Blackbird floor me 👍 ☑️ yes

[@JosephanieAckman]

And, I’d pay top dollar to see one of his concerts!

[@softspokenstamps9197]

Oh my goodness! When he sang and whistled Summer Time, I could have lost it. Simply Superb!

[@chicklovnmuzik8917]

That was my favorite too!

[@zinanord4341]

DITTO!

[@crystaljames-owensiii4430]

Me too! Wow!

[@miriamharris8190]

That part!

[@evelynsmith8443]

Summertime was absolutely beautiful !!!

[@fishinteddybear3614]

I'm no expert about music and singing, all I know is when Thunder sings it gives me goose bumps! That's my mechanism to distinguish a great singer!!

[@inmyopinionwisdom4986]

FOR SURE...goosebumps!

[@realestatecoach8626]

That’s called The Anointing ! Praise Him.

[@whitlingy3407]

Did he just whistle the song? 😳🥰🥰👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 CLASS!!!

[@rosiepena8917]

This guy reminds me of the artists from Motown in the 1960s. He is absolutely incredible! He deserves to go far in the music industry.

[@tigerDebE]

Yes, like Smokey!

[@alfredthomas9909]

He is good

[@dannymorgan7252]

Considering who his dad was, I’m not surprised

[@tacratt6091]

David Ruffin!

[@chuckhelson3744]

I could listen to Thunderstorm all the time. He’s got a voice that transcends any song and makes it better. He just extends anybody’s imagination of what the song could be.

[@tamerajernigan5444]

His voice is so heart touching. Beautiful! Voice from heaven. Love it!❤️

[@pepsiebascombe182]

Excellent singer, superb natural talent. The words are distinct, he will succeed. Be blessed.

[@lenihaylett4674]

this guy's voice is unlike anything i've ever heard. such passion. I LOVE HIS VOCALS AND TONE.

[@robertruss8969]

He sounds like Rod Stewart

[@mrchevyman8813]

I totally agree

[@divadoll606]

He sang Black Bird from his heart and soul to mine. I got a little choked up listening to him.

[@renrenmandi1787]

That 1st song.. Must be the smoothest and cleanest audition ever..

[@mpnaguilar]

Thunderstorms voice is Pure Gold. I would buy his music today! This kid needs to be stolen everytime. If no one understands music, he gives me chills. He feels and sounds like an old great from the past reincarnated. Amazing! Flawless!

[@woodhouse3756]

I have been listening to his channel for a couple of years and I wondered back then WHY DOESN'T ANYONE KNOW ABOUT THIS KID; I'm amazed that he didn't win "the Voice" BUT this video didn't allow me to really compare him with anyone except the lady he sung with in the battle round. Regardless I think he's extraordinary and I plan to continue to listen to his music 🎶.

[@kentbell6757]

Because the devil own the music industry. Their music has to sound exactly as they wanted, the message also the same thing. They will not allow *TRUE* music sounding in this world on the Devil platform. The media is the Devil platform and they will use specifically for their messages. Thunderstorm will soon disappear. But it's okay because there will always another thunderstorm that send beautiful message everywhere around the world.... even though they only have small listener.

[@maryrowell1122]

He should have won

[@W3lle]

Yeah who would’ve guessed it’d be a white country singer would win and not truly the best voice on the show

[@daphnehelper1389]

His voice literally made me cry! 🙏🏽 Also, one of the BEST duets I've ever heard ❤️

[@AnotherWittyUsername.]

I don't watch THE VOICE and I was like "Wait! What happens to her? She was awesome too and they appeared to have chemistry!". I hope she didn't get sent home.

[@andreak4280]

+1 🙋🏻‍♀️ here 100% on both these comments !! they both are amazing!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 i want to buy that song they sung together and anything done by either! Definitely a beautiful duo

[@donnadbrown5]

Yes! I felt like they both won in that duet! I would love to hear him perform with the young lady again!!! They really were a dynamic duo! 💜💜

[@mandyradeb553]

Summertime performance 😭 was everything for me.... That whistle

[@susandey4284]

Nick was a great coach for this amazing artist, Thunderstorm. Great song selection and arrangements that truly show off all his vocal attributes. Awesome!

[@tamarat.8810]

I would love to hear him sing Redemption Song by Bob Marley.

[@nathandaly1285]

That whistling was insane

[@gallente4TW]

100% agree with you. Would be great to hear him with LP, eh.?

[@indomitablemoneyland1477]

Wow

[@indomitablemoneyland1477]

I agree

[@user-tq1el2ez1d]

It complimented the song beautifully

[@mcharleym3104]

Amazing

[@onejzydva]

Thunderstorm should have won it all. His voice is amazing !!

[@evejackson9770]

I totally agree ❤️❤️❤️

[@gingersnapsNdunkie]

Loved absolutely all of Thunderstorm’s songs, but what sealed it for me was his prayer and his talk with his dad right before Wonderful World. He can sing, obviously, but he’s a good man with a beautiful soul. He has a place in this world and he didn’t have to win the Voice to secure it. May God bless and keep you Thunder. ❤️🙏 🎶

[@jeaniebutler3709]

AMEN

[@fayfalcon7642]

I concur. Blessings to him and his family. His pure soul comes through in his music ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼

[@dianeross4522]

I second that emotion

[@CG-dn1eg]

I remember that guy singing when he was a teen at the ice cream parlor in Haleiewa, Hawaii. I knew it was him when he started singing because he had that energy. He used to sing with his siblings too and it was nice. Its cool watching talent grow! Hawaii also has a lot of talented local singers and they do not need autotune pedals either!

[@diva70smusic]

I am sure it's genetics and maybe a mixture of growing up in Hawaii, but this young man has an old soul. Such a refreshing change of what is assumed a young, black man should sing. I am hopeful that true talent will come back in popular music. Real singers, real songwriters, real musicians and musical diversity. I grew up loving James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Carole King, Dolly Parton, the Beatles, Nat King Cole, Peggy Lee, Frank Sinatra, Herb Albert, Dave Brubeck, Tom Jones, Edwin Hawkins and so many others with equal passion. Hopefully, all styles of music will come back to the mainstream.

[@a.j.9797]

💖

[@ana2.7bela65]

went to an Easter Sunday church service this morning and was like wow the guy leading worship is really good. just found out this is literally him 🫠 crazy

[@halle-jadejohnson7491]

His whistle had VIBRATO

[@junewatson1638]

Thunderstorm is a Natural Born Star. He don't sound like "Nobody"🤩. Totally Distinct Vocal Tone & Verbrato! Love it.

[@missurl4191]

Thunderstorm brought the thunder, the lightning and the rain, one heck of a storm!

[@laviepourme]

So happy 😂 to be reminded of him! Why can't the music on the radio be him. All day long. It would change my life. Your soul and voice are so beautiful and special. ❤❤❤

[@somersetskylark173]

Everytime I come back to listen I cry 😭 such a beautiful voice ❤

[@theenemyspublic681]

The young brother's voice/ performance is flawless.

[@inmyopinionwisdom4986]

Yes, and to think that this young man was out in the world singing all this time. I AM SO GLAD THAT WE GOT TO "HEAR" & "SEE" HIM PERFORM IN AMERICA. What an AMAZING GIFT he has....definitely touched by the hands of GOD! :-D

[@KatyDOporto]

This young man deserves all the good things, he has such great talent

[@marshmallow13585]

I first heard Thunderstorm Artis on Devine Radio, now I'm a huge fan. I absolutely love his music!

[@paulortiz2035]

What I like with this guys singing is it is very, very clear! I can hear every syllable, every word! And he isn't rushing the music. Phrasing is one of the things that separate the good from the great! Sinatra had a way of being right behind the beat which was part of his signature style. There Is another guy, named Douglas, on AMERICAN IDOL, this year. Would be beyond fantastic to hear them sing together, as they would push the other even to a higher level---- if that is even possible to do! They are both 'great' singers. (A word I never use!)

[@azekel7687]

the tonality of his voice is unique, do you know how difficult it is for some singers to imitate that raspiness? Yet he has it naturally. These are the type of voices that Stand out the most, a voice that doesn't need to hit high notes or low notes, but a voice that has unique qualities.

[@moniqueredman9644]

He just absolutely blew me away he made tears fall down my face and when he did that whistle that did something to my soul you go ahead thunderstorm what a perfect name for you. Peace and power to you

[@CL-lo3xr]

Thunderstorms voice is as smooth as Nat King Cole's.💖💖💖

[@DOakry]

That Stay duo was phenomenal. Their voices are perfect together. They even look great together. Both beautiful souls

[@lisarochester2978]

His voice is like worship, I think he was born to do that.

[@watchonline1391]

Thunderstorm, I really hope your gift takes you where it is supposed to and reaches every life it’s supposed to. And May no sorrow come with it. CLEARLY talented!

[@evejackson9770]

❤️❤️❤️

[@reubenstanley4211]

This guy is the real deal! Looks like he has a heart of gold too!

[@rosebeckford1476]

I feel his dad in the deepest

[@Leotique]

it's not just that his voice is great, but he also knows how to use it and the way he plays/interprets the songs was incredible !

[@salgaldenco]

I watched this originally and now in 2024 it still gives me goose bumps, shivers and smiles ear to ear for this young, beautiful, talented man. May God continue to bless him.

[@claudiaforeal]

Oh Good Lord..his voice is so peaceful 🥺

[@sofinavarro1182]

this voice is very calm, and has a love and a calm, I love this

[@syedtazrianahmedshampricto6464]

Performances really boring though

[@ferryfabulous7250]

Wow, 👏

[@florabynum9090]

So powerful and heartfelt. His father instilled in his children great character and taught them how to be Independent. Just beautiful...

[@victoriabullock1444]

I love the version of, Summertime. I sing that song all the time - I love it!! It was amazing!!

[@shelynn126]

Like Black entertainers from the early 1900's, Thunderstorm, like he's reincarnated from a different time, his voice is amazing, and his style is not like anyone of this era. He is memorizing.

[@martinsinye2710]

That song he whistled was one of the best song I've ever heard. Superb.

[@snowwwy5358]

That girl he battled against was so beautiful 😍

[@seanfire7679]

They both should do duets

[@julletbrown385]

She sure is beautiful, baldhead and all.

[@froliciousbeauty5019]

I thought the same.

[@sueshee6163]

Her voice❤❤❤so unbelievable. She's angelic

[@Changelingheart]

Yes, and she could really sing too. I think she could have gone places if John Legend had chose her to move on. I loved her!!

[@Jaygee167]

He cover of John Legends "preach" was out of this world

[@seanmanning8800]

The slow, melancholy whistle, in Summertime, transformed that entire song, into something a little darker, and it works beautifully

[@MagneticPortal1]

An eye-closing performance. Just listen how pure the sound is!

[@usaneebeilles9510]

...'just how pure the sound is...'👍 love it love it!!

[@FuzzySoulTiger]

Reminds me of the artist formally known as Terrence Trent Darby. He's phenomenal 🎅🏾

[@marvaleousmfraser3604]

He’s good. He has style in singing!!!!!! Original

[@chuckhelson3744]

Better than the original. An absolutely beautiful voice and unbelievable control.

Chills... OMG! Love it ! Black bird! Just seeing this for the first time. Must have been working. Each time each song came out... I was so hooked on his voice!

[@ORSkie]

A very soothing voice. Hope this show opens up options for him.

[@sandrasimpson216]

He is I truly believe the best male soul artist ever to sung on these shows. The Voice dies a poor job of recalling getting behind and helping take them to Superstars the way Idol does.

[@abiazahmed9580]

Damn! He has the ability to strike in ears and hearts with that soothing voice. And his name is Thunderstorm 🙄

[@jasonwilliamtjandra]

Well his dad give that name, because he wanted a unique name.
