    To those saying he wasn’t good, or perfect; frankly I don’t think you know what music is for. Music is meant to touch your soul, make you feel something, it’s not meant to be the perfect key or the right pitch. It’s meant to make your audience feel something inside them, it’s meant to make you happy, sad, EMOTIONAL. Music is supposed to touch your soul, and that’s what he did for many. I think I’d consider that talent.

      @1stDoNoHarm63 Před 7 dny +1

      I understand the sentiment of OP, however, if this is to be the career of Harrison it really does need to be pitch perfect. When people are paying money to see a show, unless the cost of a ticket is close to free, they are looking to be entertained by those who not only have a "good" voice but those who are exceptional. Harrison was very good. He has a beautiful voice. I agree with Simon. Harrison needs to practice more and write possibly some professional training. 😊

    I kind of agree with Simon.... Not about being on the fence (I don't believe for a second he was going to say no), but about needing a lot of work. His voice has everything. It is rich and full of emotion. He could bring somebody to tears just by singing a note... What a precious gift. But he's also got the potential to be great. But to be great, he will need to put in the work.
