I can't say whether this cover is better or worse than the original. However, I can state with confidence that if Manchester was a male, this is how the song would turn out. His phrasing, the emphasis, the times he used vibrato and the octave he stayed in throughout the song is identical to the original singer. This is the most accurate cover to Don't Cry Out Loud I've seen. It's phenomenal.
I love John Barrowman. John and Scott, I would love to hear you perform with Jim Brickman sometime! The blend of your talents would be phenomenal. Always love hearing you sing.
John is gorgeous, sexy, magnificent voice, a remarkable man, warm, loving and a fabulous sense of humour. Close to perfection, maybe perfect. Have had a crush on you and don't believe the negative remarks made about you. You're too nice a man, son and husband.
John.Barrowman... thanks to you and your rendition of this song i am finally able to put into words what i could not before. You good sir are a very talented and wonderful singer with a great voice and remarkable technique... BUT... there is a downside to your ability. You have managed to suck the life and soul directly out of this song with zero emotional attachment... despite the little intro before singing the song. If this song were represented as a moist sponge sitting in the middle of a stream in the amazon... you sir have managed to damn the flow of that water turning everything into a barren wasteland. The sponge now dried up and brittle simply chips away at the slightest touch of the wind, and turned to dust blown away by the breeze. That dust has found its way to my eyes and it burns as i shed a tear because of what you have managed to do such a wonderful song.
Better than 30 years ago I first heard this song, sung by Peter Allen, at a small bar in Georgetown (Washington DC). It was an ear worm for weeks and lead to many more sessions when Peter was in town. John's rendition is good, but doesn't quite convey the emotion of Peter Allen's original.
He puts all of himself into his singing...beautiful.
How do miss him!! Where is he!! 🏴🏴🏴 miss you John.
Great voice, control and diction. John is a talented man.
My Hero, the man can do no wrong. Splendid, simply splendid...
I have never heard this before. He sings it beautifully 😍
What a wonderful voice, and the looks!♥️♥️♥️
I can't get enough of this video and this song!!! John is incredible. Melissa should be so proud!!!!!
The original singer was Peter Allen, not Melissa Manchester.

Peter Allen was the original singer.
John Barrowman has such an appealing voice and style that he can draw any audience to experience the full range of human emotions.
Thanks so mutch to explain ..... about this song
Beautifully talented gorgeous voice!!! Great actor also!!!
I love this guy, and I love what he did with this song, it's so much better then the original. So handsome and that voice.
It’s really good, but no ... not better than the original.
@@timothyleon558 we just differ on opinions
Wow! What a great voice he has... Superb! Love that song also... 👏👏👏

Spectacularly beautiful, even for him
What exactly do you mean by "even for him"?
@@peteraschaffenburg1 He has a beautiful voice, I expect beautiful. I’m saying he surpassed himself.

Watching this on repeat in 2019 haha
Who is that idiot that don't like this? The song is amazing and the way John sings it ❤
Tiziana DF probably some untalented guy who is green with envy...
@@gem241968 oh he is green alright hahaha
No, it’s the 16 daleks that couldn’t exterminate him
He has his own school for the deaf apparently!
Wow! I only found this song today, and can't stop listening to it.

Done beautifully. Melissa Manchester would agree!!
I am sure that Melissa would agree that this version is great. This song was sung first by Peter Allen.
Wow, Wow, this song is Better than the original..
No, not better. Very good, though
Wow not bad at all... still my favourite is Joe Longthorne ❤️❤️

I'm sure she did John, I'm sure she did.
John, Your shit is unreal!!! "We can have it all", by McGoveren...Please...
such a beautiful song and just find out about John Barrowman..going to google
A wonderful job doing a song that is not made for a male voice.
Better than 30 years ago I first heard this song, sung by Peter Allen, at a small bar in Georgetown (Washington DC). It was an ear worm for weeks and lead to many more sessions when Peter was in town. John's rendition is good, but doesn't quite convey the emotion of Peter Allen's original.
Didn’t we all?!
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Very good looking malcon aka john b
Good style, face and voice⭕️😁
January 2023
Good voice but his English and diction so perfect that reminds me of sinatra also had that quality
When Tennant retuns as the 14th Doktor Who. I hope, Captain Jack will come back , too.... why he never sung as Captain Jack???
😉😉😉⚘️⚘️⚘️👍👍👍
John Barrowman looks somewhat similar to tom cruise but a much better version!
Why is he so good looking?
dont cry out loud this is how i sing but i been told i sound like trash from my mother tell a stranger said i sound beautiful
where are the strings I'm hearing?
On the keyboard. It’ll be playing a string patch. Otherwise they’ll be prerecorded.
Engelbert should have recorded this song in his prime... It would have been simply heavenly!
Who is that gorjus girl playing bass?
Is it weird that this song reminds me of "You are not alone" song from Sesame Street? XD
Ras can sing.
Like John's voice but this belongs to Joe
Longthorne ❤️❤️
Ok, you can't just walk around with that face and expect people to stay alive #deaded
Nobody does it better like Melissa Manchester. Sorry for his fans.
Well, get out. This is beautiful. I love his voice. I can listen to him sing all day.
don't forget Aussie legend Peter Allen
Nearly as good as Joe Longthorne.
Beautiful
