Darren is amazing! He is 21 now. His voice is definitely deeper now; however, he still has an upper register. Watch his performance of Phantom of the Opera. You’ll see that upper register at work.
Darren Espanto was born in Calgary, Canada 🇨🇦 to Filipino parents 🇵🇭. In 2014, Sarah Geronimo became the coach for Morissette Amon. After that season, SG became the coach for Darren Espanto. After that season, SG became the coach for Zephanie Dimaranan. These 3 singers are superstars 🌟 in the Philippines 🇵🇭. SG has the golden touch! 👩🎤 Suggested duet videos 📹: Darren Espanto and Morissette Amon sing Chandelier.
I was so depressed when he lost in the finals for the Voice Kids but look at him now he’s one of the best performers in thePhilippines. Still with amazing voice until now …
The voices of TNT BOYS ( a popular boy group from the Philippines ) have changed dramatically during puberty….but so far they have adjusted well… I believe they feel comfortable with their new voices now…please react to their performances especially in America’s Got Talent ( this was before the pandemic)….you’ll not be disappointed…thanks in advance…take care!
you should definitely check out singing kids in the Philippines. It might be rare for the world to have developed vocals at such a young age but it's not the case in the Philippines and a lot of them haven't even undergone training, just karaoke.
Darren is now 21 yrs old. And when you think he cant get any better, pls watch his performance in the Phantom of the Opera... Only then will you realize that his age did not matter as to how great a talent he really
Its a tradition thing in Philippines. Every corner, every house has karaoke. There is saying in Philippines that when the baby was born here in Philippines, they dont cry but they sing instead 😊 90 percent population in Philippines can sing and dance as well
Darren is 21 now and has rich, soulful voice while hitting high notes. Please check his bday performance of opera medley on ASAP Natin 'to and HALLELUJAH on Dubai Expo 2022 last December. On these performances, it's what Darren is NOW. I'll be hanging on your reactions. Thank you, guys!🙏💕 Love from the 🇵🇭...
Darren Espanto is such a gem. A few years back, another great child/teen singer was Charice Pempengco. She has appeared on Ellen, Oprah, and Glee. Her rendition of All By Myself during one of David Foster's concerts is a must watch.
Yes...yes...please...there are sooo many talented kids younger than 14 you'll be amazed listening to.. There's also a video that went viral where a baby is singing "She's Gone". 😅
Hahaha it's time for you guys to react the voice kids nailing english songs.. Darren also there.❤I'm always waiting for your reaction for the Filipino talents.. Thanks
Gahd, I watched this rendition a lot and few other reactors, but why do I feel crying on this one? It’s like you all three went back to when you’re fourteen and how singing is as enjoyable as this.
Hi thanks for the analysis/ feedback. It’s commonly in PH have talented singers.. unless you have break in Talent Show..Then a journey can start somewhat known in music scene. You would open your eyes, people give a shot in the mall, homes or street their amazing vocals as “an eye opener “. Look forward for you guys to have first hand experience seeing this in the PH .. I guess that when he was contestant Voice PH ( kids) has given him train/ insight to further his vocal techniques. He was under Sarah Geronimo (mentor) coincidentally, Morri’ mentor as well when she was in Voice PH . Later Morri has been supported him like duet ( looks at little bro)
singing kids in the Philippines is just a play to them, please watch Wish Bus "Salamat salamat Musika" by Esang De Torres., you'll in for treat. thank you
Darren Espanto was a judge on the Dream Maker Talent show that just ended. DE has a prestigious career. Of course he's an adult now.🤩😜 Anyways, thanks guys. 🙏
I feel like I was that dude in the middle watching you both do the talking. Thanks for inviting 😆 and I am enough 🤗. I expect KZ Tandingan or Katrina Velarde will be featured in this channel.
Thank you for your RV to Darren Espanto 🥰 His voice has transitioned so well now and you would surely love it even more. Try to find and react to his MV duet with Jayda Avanzado as they sung "Sana Tayo Na" Jayda is the daughter of two well known singers in the Phil, Dingdong Avanzado and Jessa Zaragoza, and got music in her genes for sure. Her father composed the song.
Ok, here's a list of amazing world class Filipino kids singing. 1. Charice Pempengco - And I am Telling You on Starking Korea. 2. TNT Boys - Listen on Little Big Shots (Steve Harvey) 3. Aldrich and James - Dance With My Father cover 4. Ehla Nympha - Chandelier The Voice Kids Phils auditions. 5. Esang - Home The Voice Kids 6. Lyca Gairanod - Halik. There's a lot more amazing kids here. Singing is a national pastime for kids and adults. 😄
You'd be surprized to know how many filipinos can belt and sing like this in karaokes without a professional training...yes even much younger kids. It's a cultural thing. Filipinos sing anywhere anytime and that is their training. Filipinos love listening to music and singing along with it. By listening and practice they to some extent mimick the singer and enhance their voices. Having a voice coach/lesson only polishes the talent and might come later if you are privileged or you're already in the industry.
Yes!..our dear D is a very talented artist🤩. He can sing any genre and great at dancing too! He was branded "The Total Performer" then, now "The Asia's Pop 💚throb". Please do more video reaction on Darren. Thanks! 😍💚💚💚
I believe you've reacted to the TNT Boys before and we can see that their knowledge on vocal dynamics are already mature for their age. It is also true for a lot of kids here in PH who just perform on school events or compete on amateur singing contests.
He started in Canada. Before he audition in the Philippines singing contest, at young age, he already a PERFORMER IN CANADA. He improved more when he went in the Philippines but his foundation started in CANADA. #fyi But since he was born with both Filipino parents, definitely, singing is normal daily routine in his life
Those high voices blame it to 90s-20s singer high notes standard the like of Regine Velasquez, Gary V, Arnold Penida of Journey, Disney Princess Lea Salonga and more...
Sirs, try to watch Darren Espanto in "The Magic Flute" together with Lani Misalucha and Jona Viray in their Ace Concert. These pop singers can actually pull off classical songs such as Phantom of the Opera, The Duet of Flowers, 5th Element and Queen of the Night.
When Filipinos are born, we don't cry, we sing...we eat musical notes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. if we"re hungry, we sing, if we're happy we sing, if we're heart broken, we sing.
Not sure if you guys have already checked out Charice Pemengco she is also a child prodigy. She gained popularity after appearing on the Oprah Show in 2008 and was also a guest at the Ellen DeGeneres show prior. I recommend her All By Myself performance with David Foster. It is truly an eargasm (a standing ovation performance!) You’re welcome. ❤ Not sure if she still performs in the US but she is still remembered by many for her breathtaking vocals that rival Whitney Houston and Celine Dion. Would love to see your reaction to that video. ❤️
if you want to see how he has developed his voice and skills into adulthood, check out how he sings phantom of the opera with lani misalucha, and jona. if you want to see more of what he was capable of at that young age, check out how he sang chandelier in the wish bus.
He didn't lose any high notes. He gained the lower ones. Not the water. Born and raised in Canada. Went to the PH when he was 13. it's all about the Filipino love of singing from very young ages and the fact that probably every house has a karaoke machine!
You did Darren and Morisette's performnance of 'A Whole New World' 6 months ago if you remember, Darren sang in low voice there. But whats interesting is that he still can sing high notes like a soprano, check out his broadway song performance
i always enjoyed your reaction videos and Im really curious and excited to see your reaction to TNT boys performances. Im sure you're gonna be blown away by how great their voices are when they sing together, looking forward to it.
Most Filipino singers (kids and adults) Vocal coach = karao-ke/video-ke Genre = 50s to present Specialization = ballad, rock, folk, rap, blues, jazz, punk, etc. Kid and adult singer is a very deep, deep, deep rabbit hole. You are experiencing only the tip of the iceberg. Good luck! 😆 If ever you guys do get to visit the Philippines, you might get a clue and experience the "singing culture". God bless!
Vancouver Canada born, joined YTV Canada's Next Big Star at age 10, the youngest in the history of the show, his first TV appearance. Later, went to the Philippines, his parents' birthplace to join Voice Kids, and finished second Safe to say that it's a cultural thing with Filipino parents, once they realized their kids can sing, they'll do everything to encourage them to go for it, some accompany their kids to different singing contest during fiestas and in different network singing contests.
Darren is phenomenal! When you guys say how can this kid do this? You should also go listen to Charice when when was 12 years of age sing Listen (in Italy) and I Am Telling You (in Korea). Amazing!
His voice changed now!! But his still good and mire improved singing wise and his even more in acting and dancing not to mention hosting as well and now his a singing coach and younger judge!!❤si all Filipinos are proud of him!!
For some reason, I remember Charice Pempenco. She was so young back then but she already had a duet with Celine Dione and had gained strong traction in the US. She nails Whitney Houston songs effortlessly.
I grew up in the Philippines, and when I was young, I thought belting and singing like this was normal.
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣
Too much belting in the Philippines that sometimes I get tired hearing it. 🤣🤣🤣
Too much belting here in the Philippines because every time that we can make mistakes our father uses his belt to correct our wrong doings hehehehehe
@@markyujoco1912
same 😂 my friends, neighbors, and acquaintances can belt. unfortunately me and my family were not gifted, we only have the confidence 😂

His performance of Chandelier on Wishbus is what catapulted Wish in TH-cam.

Maybe just 90% and I'm one of those 10% who can't.. 😂😂
I belong to 10% coz when im that age of 14 all i want is play in the rain and patting on mud 😂

Really 90%? So i belong to the 10% then 😅
Tnt boys. Please react thanks

Darren was in The Voice Kids of the Philippines.
If you enjoy this - watch a compilation of the Voice Kids, I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy it.
Yes...yes...please...there are sooo many talented kids younger than 14 you'll be amazed listening to.. There's also a video that went viral where a baby is singing "She's Gone". 😅
Darren’s vocals were insane for this
At 21 he can still sing high notes. But his low notes are better now too.
You should watch filipino kids nailing songs in English, Darren and Morissette duet on a Disney song at wish bus
Hahaha it's time for you guys to react the voice kids nailing english songs.. Darren also there.❤I'm always waiting for your reaction for the Filipino talents.. Thanks
Gahd, I watched this rendition a lot and few other reactors, but why do I feel crying on this one? It’s like you all three went back to when you’re fourteen and how singing is as enjoyable as this.
Darren is amazing and had no vocal coaches. He still can hit high notes. 💚
Darren is a fine man now.. He's the best singer before until now
Hi thanks for the analysis/ feedback.

Darren Espanto was a judge on the Dream Maker Talent show that just ended. DE has a prestigious career. Of course he's an adult now.🤩😜
Anyways, thanks guys. 🙏
Thank you for analyzing this video. 💙
There’s another kid who was just awarded the platinum card on American Idol,his name is Tyson Venegas and he was with season 2 group
His voice control is amazing...and boy how much air does he have in his lungs???
If you haven't listened to (watched) him singing Chandelier with Morissette, live..... DO IT!
.
Some say he "won"
I feel like I was that dude in the middle watching you both do the talking. Thanks for inviting 😆 and I am enough 🤗. I expect KZ Tandingan or Katrina Velarde will be featured in this channel.
Thank you for your RV to Darren Espanto 🥰
His voice has transitioned so well now and you would surely love it even more. Try to find and react to his MV duet with Jayda Avanzado as they sung "Sana Tayo Na" Jayda is the daughter of two well known singers in the Phil, Dingdong Avanzado and Jessa Zaragoza, and got music in her genes for sure.

Yayy!!!! you guys finally saw Darren's wishclusives! this kid this kid!!! i love him so much!
He also has a duet with Mori on the Wish Bus. They did Aladdin. They are both Disney talents.
Mori and Darren sang the local version of Alladin OST A Whole New World. They performed it at the Wish bus too.
Araw gabi by Regine Velasquez the OG!! Or her What kind of Fool am I? 🤩🤩 Idol of many singers in Phils.
When Filipinos are born, we don't cry, we sing...we eat musical notes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. if we"re hungry, we sing, if we're happy we sing, if we're heart broken, we sing.

Please react Darren's duet with Calum "Heaven"
Glad to three of you commented our Filipino singers🥰👏👏👏👏💪

You’re now my favorite reactors! I hope you can also react on random Filipino singers , Filipino Mike Challenge and The Voice Kids:)
That was so funny "it's all in the water". I enjoyed your reactions so much.
He didn't lose any high notes. He gained the lower ones. Not the water. Born and raised in Canada. Went to the PH when he was 13. it's all about the Filipino love of singing from very young ages and the fact that probably every house has a karaoke machine!
Your just a fun to watch too. Keep it coming all those exciting reactions 👏👏👏👏
My first time to watch this old darren's performance.I was floored😍😍😍
If I'm not mistaken, during that time in Darren's career, it was Teacher Annie from the vocal group The Company who was his vocal coach. I think.
You did Darren and Morisette's performnance of 'A Whole New World' 6 months ago if you remember, Darren sang in low voice there. But whats interesting is that he still can sing high notes like a soprano, check out his broadway song performance
You can check out next Darren Espanto's medley This is me, Con Partiro and Phantom of the Opera.
Thank you ! I enjoyed watching your RV. I highly recommed TNT BOYS and BUDAKEL- Bugoy Drilon,Daryl Ong and Michael Pangilinan.
Billy Gilman was actually on the voice and he did amazing his voice is better than it was back then!
he was the guy who have duet with morissette in wish bus..pls watch his chandelier

Vancouver Canada born, joined YTV Canada's Next Big Star at age 10, the youngest in the history of the show, his first TV appearance. Later, went to the Philippines, his parents' birthplace to join Voice Kids, and finished second

Darren's vocal coach was Sarah Geronimo the lady who turned her chair to Darren during blind audition Philippines voice kids

For some reason, I remember Charice Pempenco. She was so young back then but she already had a duet with Celine Dione and had gained strong traction in the US. She nails Whitney Houston songs effortlessly.
