11 years later, here we are coming back to this unique beautiful voice that wraps your entire soul when he is at "Dont make me CLOSEEE one more door" !!!
@@frisc0pn0ib0i Comparison can be annoying however there is a place for it. This song was written by David Foster and Linda Thompson specifically for Whitney's role in the Bodyguard. Unlike I will always love you Whitney actually was the original singer of this particular song.
He is one of the very very few people that sang on talent shows of whom I remember by name. Even years after I stumbled upon this audition of him. I actually was an instant fan. I listened to his album also. Now, it's been ages since I've searched for his music yet still almost every time I hear someone singing this song, I also think of Jack. By name. It's insane.
This is one of those incredible auditions that makes you appreciate youtube so much...and she was right. People will be watching this all around the world, live and direct from America!
+Sarcasm_is_my_weapon Me too, but so sad to see his record label dropped him. I'm wondering if his surgery had anything to do with his career. He's did a quick clip of this song, doesn't sound so good, but then again, he's much older. I think he's still a great singer!
Watched it twice...back to back...made me cry...how can anyone say anything BUT "DAMN!!! HE REALLY NAILED THAT ONE!" Thank you Austrailia for sharing one of your true talents with everyone!
Seriously, can this be real? I kiddo of 14 singing Whitney Houston's extremely hard song like this? Words do not describe it..I agree with Dannii Minogue the whole world just have to watch and be blown away.
Like a lot of people, it was Jack's performance on The Voice that brought me here. Watching his memorable win on Australia's Got Talent, it was obvious and goes without saying, what a phenomenal singer he was, and is. What was less obvious at the time was the amount of pressure that was placed on him at such a young age, as the competition progressed. If you watch the semi final and his breathtaking rendition of "And I am Telling You", the judges poured superlatives and compliments on him that I'm sure were welcomed, but probably left him walking off stage feeling like he had everything to prove and an almost impossible reputation to live up to. It was almost too much. It's not suprising that he fled the limelight for 5 years and lost his love for singing, but he deserves another chance, and will hopefully be stronger and more resilient this time around. Welcome back Jack. You've got this!
I love how his kiddie-sized yet bell-clear tenor during the verse simply EXPLODES at the chorus; he unleashes this passionate, soulful wail of a vocal that seems to grow more yearning with each passing note.
The DNA of this song, I'm talking EVERY SINGLE ELEMENT within its design, is to CLOSE! Nothing about this song is "easy," and THAT proves how "out of reach" Whitney Houston was and is. Great Job, Jack!
I don't know how 9times I have watched this video as I enjoy it so much. When I am in a lot of pain and feeling down this lifts my spirits and I can smile again. Thank you Jack you are a Godsend that has helps me several times since I first heard you young man. God bless you and your family love and hugs Mary-Ellen UK
É sempre surpreendente sermos surpreendidos por crianças que nasceram já dotadas. Jack Vidgen é um destes Jovens que importa acarinhar, incentivar e divulgar. Parabéns!
I’m British, have never watched this show but every few years I come back onto UA-cam to watch jack and chooka. Best auditions on any talent shows ever.
Jessie J, who won Singer 2018. She's called "The White Whitney". She did I have Nothing & nailed it. She also did Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody" a cult classic disco song & added her own runs & stuff. It was like her own concert. I must have watched both songs 100 times or more.
Continua salvo na minha playlist em 2022 e acho que nunca vou tirar. Toda vez que eu escuto me arrepia. É automático. Eu amo essa música na voz do Jack.🥰
Whitney Houston is one of those legendary singers that you should NEVER attempt to sing one of their songs on this type of platform unless you have the goods to back it up. Obviously this beautiful boy had the goods to back it up! No one will ever be Whitney but the ones who can sing her songs that close to her level certainly deserve all the success they obtain in the music industry.
Let us all pray because the great Jack is facing a very bad time in their life. He was operated on a (seemingly benign) tumor located behind one eye. God be with you and guide you towards health.
I grew up in the 80's when Whitney was relatively unknown and for this teenager to hit the notes he hit and sang it the way he did is quite impressive and probably still has me watching it over and over. The fact that standing ovation went on for as long as it did was also nice. The middle judge holding her hands on her face like she did you can hear her saying, "OH MY GOODNESS this is our winner right here!"
He was awesome to me God sees no color age or preferences with whom to bless with His gifts and by the reaction of the audience here you can tell this child is rare and his gift is straight from above I really enjoyed
Yes I agree . He sings quiet a few gospel and worship songs and is nothing like what is presented on Australia's got Talent. He just did a medley of these old songs for fun at his latest show.
Learn capitilization, how to spell, and proper sentence structure and maybe you won't look liked such an illiterate fuck,.... though you will probably always sound like a complete imbisole each and every time you open your mouth, at least try and do it where people think you might be educated. Did you actually read any of what you wrote or was that just an example of your version of diarrhea of the mouth? You should really refrain from commenting on UA-cam and stick to doodling in you 3 yr. old sister's coloring books. What an asswipe !!!
I mean it.. I've watched this young man since the beginning. And I have to tell you.. I can watch this performance all these years later and I still cry.. God Bless You @JackVidgen
unfortunately there wasn't yet the golden buzzer, he worth it for sure! When i saw him at the blind audition, i knew , i saw him much before...shame i don't remembered his name...He is one of the best male performe!rs
He is among the greatest child talents in history. I know we have amazing people around the globe with so many talents but this... This is one of those one in a million prodigy's. This kid is so good, he's shocking! And comparisons to Justin Beiber? Sorry but JB is not in the same company as this kid as far as vocal talent. Not even close and JB can sing! Think about that for a moment.
"He is among the greatest child talents in history. I know we have amazing people around the globe with so many talents but this..." ...this is just singing. If he was a prodigy at something productive like maths or physics, then he can be counted among the greatest talents in history. But he's a singer. Nooope.
Já tinha visto esse vídeo várias X, o menino canta muito.. e não tinha reparado no Brian (Westlife) de jurado ❤️ Brian Forever. Fofo e lindo como sempre!!
I may have already commented on this video before, but who cares!! I'm absolutely flabbergasted by his talents!!! Hands Down!!!! I've yet to see someone this young rip it like he just did.
I know Jack Vidgen recently came out as gay but being kissed didn't make him realize he was gay that's ridiculous Brian McFadden kissed him and he's a straight man. 😂
I remember watching this back then and this performance still gives me goosebumps amazing gifted talent, such a shock of sadness what happened to Jack after this , so glad to finally see him back doing what he was gifted too do , I truly hope everyone supports jack in a positive way and stops any negative cruel trolling , This is why suicide in this country is so damn high , if people have nothing positive to say , then its simple just DO NOT say or type anything and focus on improving your own damn life.
Watching from Norway and iLove his voice and he do Set fire to the rain Amazing too and i`ve heard it and all his songs several times and never get bored ;-)
There are some songs, that if your not a good singer, you don't want to tackle especially if you cant sing, or hold a good note. But this kid is singing a Whitney Houston Song, so before you judge, listen. He's got the Voice.
He has a very good head on his shoulders, was able to realize when he had developed too much pride/ego, turn his back on it all for normalcy, and devote himself to helping those in real need.
Anyone here after the voice Australia 2019 blind audition?
Me ❤❤❤
Waiting for that conment
YES!
Me!
I am flashback finally he is back
11 years later, here we are coming back to this unique beautiful voice that wraps your entire soul when he is at "Dont make me CLOSEEE one more door" !!!

Nobody can do it like Whitney Houston.. but this guy was spectacular!
Pancake!
I hate when idiots who probably can’t even sing always need to compare. To each their own. Whitney wasn’t even the original..
@@frisc0pn0ib0i
Comparison can be annoying however there is a place for it. This song was written by David Foster and Linda Thompson specifically for Whitney's role in the Bodyguard. Unlike I will always love you Whitney actually was the original singer of this particular song.
@@JesusISdaonlyway do your research dumbass. Dolly Parton was the composer and original singer.
Whitney was a try hard over actor with a mind destroyed by drugs,
I came here after seeing his audition at the Voice. Anyone else?
Aizat Arshad me as well lol

Me too.
Meeee to

She is right...Everyone all over the WORLD will be watching! Your singing is amazing Jack!!

Breathtaking, mind blowing... You know when you can't express your feelings about something ? That's how I'm feeling right now. I can't even explain
I know!!! Exactly.
I know and completely agree with you.
I never get sick of watching this, Jack you are indeed a superstar ! This has to be one of the greatest auditions ever!
+Bruno Fedele Amen to that!
+TheChosenOneRedBird James Arthur is good but doesn't even come remotely close to this audition!!

Oh yeah, soo good
+doginwoods What type of surgery did he have? Who was he signed to?
He had surgery to remove a tumor behind his eye. Successful I might add
Honestly I love these judges so much! No comparison to all the other got talent shows!
Great job!

*I was 20 when I first saw this, now I'm 30 and it's still sounds liquid Gold...*
Such tremendous talent, and yet so humble. America loves you too, Jack!
I love how his kiddie-sized yet bell-clear tenor during the verse simply EXPLODES at the chorus; he unleashes this passionate, soulful wail of a vocal that seems to grow more yearning with each passing note.
the voice of an angel
somewhat above tenor I'll say!
The DNA of this song, I'm talking EVERY SINGLE ELEMENT within its design, is to CLOSE!
Nothing about this song is "easy," and THAT proves how "out of reach" Whitney Houston was and is.
Great Job, Jack!
I literally can't tell you how many times I've hit replay.
He’s so awesome ! Made me cry happiness !! I have watched this over 100 times !
"you may be amazing or dreadful...both I will enjoy" LOL!!
I'm not exagerating, but he's one of the best singers I've ever heard.
Relax
@@giannibruno1698yeah take it easy
This still brings me to tears, years after it first screened on TV. Seeing him now, on The Voice, is just incredible.
I don't know how 9times I have watched this video as I enjoy it so much. When I am in a lot of pain and feeling down this lifts my spirits and I can smile again. Thank you Jack you are a Godsend that has helps me several times since I first heard you young man. God bless you and your family love and hugs Mary-Ellen UK
Year 2022, and this is still outstanding.
replay button is frozen....cant stop listening
I would like to hear Jack again when he's 25 or so! He is amazing!
He's going on the voice Australia he's 22 now
Jack looks more like a woman now
He is literally the first person I have heard from Canada, the UK, or Australia that doesn't lose their accent when they sing
Chilling.
É sempre surpreendente sermos surpreendidos por crianças que nasceram já dotadas. Jack Vidgen é um destes Jovens que importa acarinhar, incentivar e divulgar. Parabéns!
He's freaking amazingggggg. Got goosebumps all the way watching 😱
"This is something that people around the World will be watching"
Yes, they do watch this and it's really awesome!
I’m British, have never watched this show but every few years I come back onto UA-cam to watch jack and chooka. Best auditions on any talent shows ever.
coming back to this video after 8 years and shook how different this boy looks now that he's older. Has an amazing voice still tho!
He's had plastic surgery lol
With all the surgery and Botox he’s done that made him look like a chick, won’t not doubt next up is the change like Bruce Jenner.
Yeah, such a shame. Great skills, but now he looks like a flop ken doll lmao
@@thathawaiiandude787 maybe he wanted to look like that.
Whitney Houston is my favorite singer. I have never seen a man, woman or child sing this song better.
Jessie J, who won Singer 2018. She's called "The White Whitney". She did I have Nothing & nailed it. She also did Chaka Khan's "Ain't Nobody" a cult classic disco song & added her own runs & stuff. It was like her own concert. I must have watched both songs 100 times or more.
I always enjoyed Whitney's music , this young man nailed it ! , its as good as Whitney singing it herself . Great Sound .
Continua salvo na minha playlist em 2022 e acho que nunca vou tirar. Toda vez que eu escuto me arrepia. É automático. Eu amo essa música na voz do Jack.🥰
O ano é 2023 e aqui estamos!

Why does he choose Justin has an inspiration? That awkward moment when you're 10x more talented than your inspiration.
+Ball is Life I know right?
Justin has an AMAZING voice. Are you freaking serious?
+Han Miller Frick you stop bullying people
this was back when Justin was a really good kid lol.
+Leekee-Duh-Boo Amazing is going way to far. Justin can hold a tune and he's talented. You want amazing then go listen to Whitney or Mariah
First I was like "God, he looks like a blond version of Bieber..." but then I heard him singing and fell in love!
he got the genes that could sing....
Let us all pray because the great Jack is facing a very bad time in their life. He was operated on a (seemingly benign) tumor located behind one eye. God be with you and guide you towards health.
2022 e escutar ele cantando ainda me arrepia... Que voz...

Watching from Norway and iLove his voice and he do Set fire to the rain Amazing too and i`ve heard it and all his songs several times and never get bored ;-)
Line katrine Naley me too ! I watch em over & over
The voice Australia 2019 that's why I'm here 😊 jack your amazing
Ojalá que después de desarrollarse y cambie su voz pueda continuar llegando a esas notas altas y con esa perfección.
Una hermosa y envidiable voz
i just watched him in the voice. so i researched and when he opened his mouth to sing it he made it his own song, he owned it
Impressionante! É um timbre masculino que conseguiu atingir o ponto perfeito na execução de Whitney! Lindo do começo ao fim!
There are some songs, that if your not a good singer, you don't want to tackle especially if you cant sing, or hold a good note. But this kid is singing a Whitney Houston Song, so before you judge, listen. He's got the Voice.
Jack is BACK The Voice: Australia 2019 God Bless and Godspeed young man
Absolutely amazing. That ending... consecutive numbers- 7 & 8 as the supps! Really!?? There will never be another Draw 898.
12 years on and still on my top 3 performances on a talent show.
I have tears in my eyes I swear
He has a very good head on his shoulders, was able to realize when he had developed too much pride/ego, turn his back on it all for normalcy, and devote himself to helping those in real need.
That was awesome!! I am sure Whitney is proud from heaven above!!
