eto yung kumpletong clip sa youtube, sa boses at "attitude" sa pag kanta ok maganda, birit kung birit ang hirit ni charice me halong r&b pa.

what i dont like is the way she talks during the interview, if you notice she has this trying hard english twang, if she forego with this unnecessary twang shell soar greater heights!

kung ikaw ay pinoy wag mong ikahiya, ipagmalaki mo, i never heard leah salonga talks with twang in her tongue, her diction is straight n audible and that is one pinoy english that are well appreciated by the world, malinis ang pagbigkas natin ng english, walang sabi, hindi dapat conyotic, hindi kelangang tunog kano o tunog hudyo(which i think are better counding english) mas maganda ang tunog pinoy, english na walang punto, english na maiintindihan saan ka man bansa magpunta=)

she sounded a bit chinese. hehe. well, at least she tried. she sang good too. way to go! ellen said that the US was a lot different from where charice came from. duh! oh well. it really is.

[fourtheboys96]

she has a good voice quality. ok na ok ang range ng boses niya.

yoko lang yung masyado niya ginagaya yung original songs. parang pang matanda na boses niya when in fact bata pa siya.

sana matutunan niya maging orig when performing. bata pa naman siya so dami pang time.

galing! naka 20x ko na atang pinapanood sa youtube ung guesting nya sa Star King with Suju(Super Junior)

it's what makes her great. kung bata ang boses niya, she won't make it in the US

be a little merciful she is just 15 years old.

as to leah salonga, there are actually many times that she was imitating american accent during interviews when she was younger during her miss saigon days at broadway and british accent too when she was performing in london's west end

shes trying to sound like an american when she speaks english?i dont see anything wrong with that.
trying hard on english twang?thats not a twang at all.thats her trying to speak right english and when your trying to speak right english in an english speaking country,you have to imitate how they talk so itll be clearer for the receiving crowd.
lets be honest here.pinoy english accent is very different from american accent.what you think is clean and audible pinoy english is kinda hard to understand for americans.pinoys that i know that moved here even admits that its not because they wanna sound classy by speaking english like the americans but its easier for them to communicate with americans.

I agree. I can't tell if she's "imitating" or not. Personally, it doesn't matter to me. So long as I can understand what she's saying. I have no idea how she'd speak english in RP. So, it's not in me to judge her way of speaking. The most important thing is that she's got a great gift in her voice.

Gee. If Pinoys heard my english, I wonder how they'd think. I speak with a slow, southern drawl. Actually, Pinoys here have heard me speak and they always thought I'm Hispanic (my preference for and skill in futbol doesn't help either) until I say, "Pare, kumusta! or Uy, mare!" . It's amusing to see newcomer Pinays whispering (bulong-bulong?) to my wife's friends when they see me. Of course, it wasn't too long ago when my wife's friends also bulong-bulong to my wife. "Oh, we didn't know you married a Mexican".

*jun aka pekto...
same here man..lol3 of my best friends didnt know i understand alot of pinoy words so when they first met me,they always talked to me in english.
we went to visit my parents in new orleans and they noticed how my parents talked to me in tagalog and i answered the m with the right words(tho still in english) and they all just freaked out.
they started telling me how hard it was for them to hold a conversation with me and wished they knew i understand tagalog before.
i kinda talk fast.dont have any southern accent at all.chicago is one of the states(if not the only one) where people dont have an accent at all not like texas,california,new york,atlanta or worse, boston.

OT

i kinda talk fast.dont have any southern accent at all.chicago is one of the states(if not the only one) where people dont have an accent at all not like texas,california,new york,atlanta or worse, boston.

I know what you mean when people talk fast. I've been to Chicago and yes, they talk fast.

Boston.... You must mean a genuine "Yankee" accent. I went to Bangor, Maine a couple of times. I can barely keep up whenever true-blooded Yankees talk to me.

I'm sure most Americans would appreciate talking to Charice (or any Pinoy) much more than talking to a Yankee.

Add: Ha Ha! That got me thinking about the defensive coach in "The Waterboy" Of course, he's Cajun, not Yankee. But, same difficulty understanding.

The Waterboy - many different American accents
