that wasn't all that good... he is strange one week he is good, one week he isn't ,,he just wasnt on the key or something with this one and couldnt hit the notes...if you want to hear someone sing this flawlessly try melanie amaro on usa x factor first season... do the judges have wax in their ears?

@Samson58 I know what you mean about Melanie but it was copy paste copy cat Beyonce. She was amazing don't get me wrong. My problem with that version same as Charice's which was even better than Melanie's is when we praise copy cat covers hand them crowns then when they fade into oblivion we as why? It's because we already have the originals ...he was alittle pitchy sometimes but he did make it his own and the big notes were AWESOME!!

He sounded a lot more current that he normally does -- which is a great thing to see. But I don't think he sang the song particularly well, considering how talented he is. Some notes he didn't hit properly, and he over-sang in other parts.

@Rickey.. why did you call Jahmene Melisma?.. who is Melisma?

@Emdie Melisma is a musical term. It is singing one syllable of text while moving between different notes. Like Mariah, Christina, and Beyonce, do. If you know the hymn, "Christ the Lord is Risen Today", think of the Alleluias. Or "Angels we Have Heard on High", the Glorias.
