Whitney Houston had a very powerful and clear voice - on her best days (before drugs and alcohol ruined the voice). And the songs from "Bodyguard" were at the peak of her vocal capabilities. A man singing one of this songs - that`s unexpected and not seen before. But: David Phelps is a classical trained tenor and he can sing over full range of three(!) octaves - without a problem! So - if someone can do it... it`s definitely him! I love David Phelps... really! And his partners as background musicians and also background singer - like Guy Penrod or Charlotte Ritchie or his doughter, Maggie Beth... all great singers! Search for "Amazing Grace" with David and Charlotte and two other singers... or his version of "The Lord`s Prayer & Ave Maria"... beautiful! Simply perfect! Thanks Patrol nation for this reaction video! Good work!
52 year old male covering a Whitney Houston song is just unheard of. Yet David does it flawlessly. I always say this and always will...he is the best male vocalist in the world and has been for years. Not even close...and still humble and gracious.
@terrimorrison If you’re talking about I Can’t Help Falling In Love, David hasn’t released that on UA-cam yet. Lyle saw Stories and Songs, so he’s aware of how awesome the songs are.
This is my all time favorite. He did Whitney proud. He's ear for notes and tone, can't be matched. That is a Yamaha C2 piano for the pros.. I have one and it has such a rich and bold bass. Loved how the pianist used it so well. Very clean and emotional playing. And that cellist is out of this world. She had emotion for days and her 2 solo riffs were unexpected and I loved it so much..oh, Lyle I have to listen to this at least 3 or 4 times a day. I'm trying to get my Alexa to play it for me, but she is stubborn. This man needs to be named the best tenor of all times.
David is my only favorite tenor. He can sing any genre of music and this was no exception. I throughly enjoy David’s voice and your reactions Lyle. Thank you for sharing!
I absolutely adore David’s arrangement and delivery of this song. He is a Whitney Houston fan and I am certain she would love this and would be a Phan of David’s voice and talent as he is of hers. The piano cello combo is just perfection as are Da id’s vocals and song interpretation. I have Stories and Songs Vol 1. Stellar work. Today I received word that David’s newest album will be released Sept. 10th. His Gamechanger tour dates are now listed on his website. More great reactions material for you my friend. You are right. David can sing anything. He also loves Tony Bennett’s voice and thinks of him when he writes in that style. God bless you and your family. Stay safe!
David killed it. That D5 raised my hair! So much power to it. Have watched it so many times I've lost count but can't get enough of it. Superb job David!
David has truly mastered his voice. He knows exactly how & when to use dynamics, phrasing, key change and has absolute control of his voice. His perfect diction is unmatched in the music world, regardless of genre!!
I just can't get enough of David. He is phenomenal.There is no one like him. He is the best artist alive today. He can sing any genre and connect the emotion of the song effortlessly. This song is so beautifully sung I keep hitting replay. Looooove this!❤
Yes, let's watch it again!!!! I just close my eyes, turn my volume down just a tad as he winds up more and more, and he just sweeps me away in all the emotion. Oh my gosh!! Absolutely breathtaking!!!!
David phenomenal of course... he is such an awesome artist... but I was so anxious to watch and hear your reaction... loved it!!! I have to admit I have watched it numerous times... loved his live stream of Stories & Songs Vol. 1 - it was Phantastic !!!! Thank you Lyle😊
So happy that your reaction to I Have Nothing was the first!!! Absolutely gave me chills the first time I heard it during Stories & Songs Vol 1. Thank you Lyle for another fantastic David Phelps reaction video!
This performance just blows my mind....I have heard that David sings it in the same key as Whitney. Beautiful playing from the celloist and pianist. That big note near the end is a D# I believe....holy smokes...still got goose bumps
I'm right with you. The piano and the Cello are my two favourite instruments. I also love David's pared back performances such as Gentle Savior, a sweet and gentle song, another favourite of mine. Take a look if you haven't seen it 🥰
Appreciated your well articulated reaction. You are clean and concise. Finally, keep coming with David Phelps. All of his songs are heavenly creations. Regards, TED
Watching this again (after making the mistake of watching another reactor). I SO APPRECIATE you watching it (all videos) all the way through without the constant stops. It allows us to truly hear and feel the song as it builds and then breathes. I love your reactions!!!!💜🎶💜
Lyle - you are the male Australian version of me. I love that you often need to hear it a 2nd time because it was just that good! I love how giddy and emotional you get with each video. I cannot wait until you finally have the opportunity to see David live!!!!!
First time I've heard this one by David. Always a delight to hear him sing- anything! He could make the phone book sound good. Oops! Forgot. No more phone books. Well, you would have loved it anyway!!!
Unbelievable. Glad he did some Whitney...because not just anyone can do Whitney, lol. I have heard that David's vibrato have reminded other people of Whitney's. Awesome rendition. Awesome reaction. Thanks, good sir.
Thank you Lyle for this reaction. David was fantastic as always. I have been a fan for over 20 years and never get tired of it. Loved this song and your reactions to it. Thank you for sharing this song. 💖
Make no mistake folks....David could be a household name around the world due to his God given immense talent. But he chooses to be true to his calling, remaining a mainstream Christian artist, forfeiting additional fame and fortune. I say, like many, that he is the best male vocalist in the world today and has been for many years...and that comment is from many years of experience and seeing him live 11 times...it's just that many have never heard of him...because he chooses to follow the path that God has planned for him. Just wanted to share ...
Hi Sweetie! What an incredibly powerful performance by David. I guess the best way to follow an icon is with another icon! He excels in any music genre and makes each song his own. You should try the Gaither Vocal Band's "(God don't play) Second Fiddle" from their concert in Jerusalem. Tight harmony and just pure joy. I am sorry I can't provide the link. (Technotard here, remember? 😉) Stay safe, Lyle. Had my last kidney cancer surgery last week and am claiming God's gift of healing. Your reactions from that first "O Holy Night" to this one are on my Playlist that have provided comfort in those dark nights. Thank you for all of the reactions.
Agree, "Second Fiddle" is such a wonderful song--written by David. I wonder if his accountant/banker Dad assisted with some of the lyrics? Great upbeat song. Yes, Lyle should grab it on You Tube and have a listen. Pray you are feeling better.
How are you my brother ? Love you brother.. As usual you are my favorite reactionist . It's good to see you . And now to Mr Phelps Wow wow with another side order of wow!. The only thing better than David Phelps is the God in heaven who created him!.. End of story. Drop the mic and walk away
Lyle, when you mentioned the cellist stopped playing when David hit that barn-burner of a note, maybe she was just gobsmacked and forgot what she was supposed to play! Also Lyle, I'm a bit worried about you as you didn't shed a single tear. during this performance. 😅😉😊 All kidding aside, David is just unparalleled as a vocalist of any genre. Am I the only one who suddenly realized I stopped breathing many times as I listened to this? (admittedly for the hundredth time) GOAT!
@@leeannkaplan57 I thought the exact same thing. It must take lots of training for her to get through that performance and not jump up and start clapping! She sure was lovely, though. Oh, I might as well watch it again while I'm here 😀
I wasn't sure how this was going to turn out, but as usual, David blew my mind. Absolutely amazing. I hope they release Unchained Melody from the stream. It was amazing as well.
LOVED this song by David. I knew he would do PHABULOUS on this. He can sing anything. It doesn't have to be gospel. Your reaction was spot on, as usual, Lyle! I also loved how the video kept going from color to B&W and switching back and forth through the song. Very well done!
This shows you the kind of money and fame David could have had. It was right there for the taking. He chose to use that gift to give glory to God and bless millions of people in the process. I bet he’s pretty happy with that decision. Lay up your treasures in heaven, what does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul?
There is another song he sung on this special where the guitar player and David are standing in a field. I can't think what the name of it was. I'm sure someone will tell you.
To the maker of this video(Patrol Gaming):Could you please do a comparison video of who sang it best between David Phelps singing I have nothing in his music video vs Jessie J also singing her rendition of I have nothing on the China singing competition in the year 2018?However this time could you please combine the two performances together in one video? In this video i would like to hear your opinion as to which of these two singers you think sang this song the best and why (David Phelps or Jessie J).

David can sing anything, therefore I would love to hear him sing "I Will Always Love You". This man's voice is a gift from God.
51 years old and better than ever. Absolutely extraordinary. I’m glad you’re the 1st to react to this one Lyle. As it should be.
That's so weird I was thinking the same thing about his age. He is so effortless every time. Definitely Blessed
Do you remember the song was David song out in the field. Tell Lyle
@terrimorrison If you’re talking about I Can’t Help Falling In Love, David hasn’t released that on UA-cam yet. Lyle saw Stories and Songs, so he’s aware of how awesome the songs are.
@@leeannkaplan57 thank you I just couldn't think of the title.
@@leeannkaplan57 I realize he knows how awesome David is Everybody does.
There are two classes of vocalists. David Phelps is one class and the other class is everyone else who wishes they were David Phelps!
This is my all time favorite. He did Whitney proud. He's ear for notes and tone, can't be matched. That is a Yamaha C2 piano for the pros.. I have one and it has such a rich and bold bass.

So Absolutely Beautiful...and the Cello part is Amazing throughout... Piano is perfect...but David's voice can not be any better...!!!!!

He has such powerful smooth delivery. It's effortless and so clearly God given.
David absolutely killed it. Amazing!
He is blessed.and certainly blesses me with
Every song!
He is brilliant. He can sing any song and it belongs to him. I love how it goes from black and white to color.
David has truly mastered his voice. He knows exactly how & when to use dynamics, phrasing, key change and has absolute control of his voice. His perfect diction is unmatched in the music world, regardless of genre!!
David Phelps in one word is. Breathtaking! And everything he does he puts his stamp on it
Oh I'm so glad you reviewed this song. It's phenomenal! Bill Gaither said one time that David is the BEST Arranger...I have to agree.
I just can't get enough of David. He is phenomenal.There is no one like him. He is the best artist alive today. He can sing any genre and connect the emotion of the song effortlessly. This song is so beautifully sung
I keep hitting replay. Looooove this!❤
My brother just passed away. I forwarded your song to his family. Thank you David as it is a beautiful song, especially with your beautiful voice.
Blows me away. I'm glad he did this.
What a killer performance!!! My all time favorite singer!!!
Yes, let's watch it again!!!! I just close my eyes, turn my volume down just a tad as he winds up more and more, and he just sweeps me away in all the emotion. Oh my gosh!! Absolutely breathtaking!!!!
He has a terrific voice. Love the song and yes to follow Whitney Houston and nail it is wonderful. Thank you.
Superb .........heavy sigh!!!
Wow. Wow. WOW! I knew you were going to watch it again 😆
David phenomenal of course... he is such an awesome artist... but I was so anxious to watch and hear your reaction... loved it!!! I have to admit I have watched it numerous times... loved his live stream of Stories & Songs Vol. 1 - it was Phantastic !!!!
Thank you Lyle😊
I have listened to this so many times and love it more each time. Never fails to give me goosebumps.
Me, too!!!!! I listen to this particular son at least once a day. David is phenomenal and is has a gift from God.
So happy that your reaction to I Have Nothing was the first!!! Absolutely gave me chills the first time I heard it during Stories & Songs Vol 1. Thank you Lyle for another fantastic David Phelps reaction video!
mind blowing performance amazing
This was a dream come true for me! 🔥❤🔥 I am a huge Whitney fan and I of course love David! This was epic!!! 🥰😭🥰
Favorite male singer of all time.
So absolutely phabulous!!
David's voice is magical.❤️
David's definitely.. He is the Best...
Oh The LPRD can break down them walls . Till you are you .
Sing David . The Songs are Beautiful ❤️
I imagine he arranged all of it too including that beautiful cello and, of course, the piano! Love this so much!
This performance just blows my mind....I have heard that David sings it in the same key as Whitney. Beautiful playing from the celloist and pianist. That big note near the end is a D# I believe....holy smokes...still got goose bumps

Boom! So glad you did it twice. Couldn't take my eyes off David the first time. Loved watching your reaction on the second. Thanks so much!
Appreciated your well articulated reaction. You are clean and concise. Finally, keep coming with David Phelps. All of his songs are heavenly creations. Regards, TED

Love, love, love David's voice. I'm so glad we have him to enjoy. I know we all truly miss Whitney's voice as she was a true master also, RIP Whitney.
Lyle - you are the male Australian version of me. I love that you often need to hear it a 2nd time because it was just that good! I love how giddy and emotional you get with each video. I cannot wait until you finally have the opportunity to see David live!!!!!
Top notch. He’s in a league of his own.
First time I've heard this one by David. Always a delight to hear him sing- anything! He could make the phone book sound good. Oops! Forgot. No more phone books. Well, you would have loved it anyway!!!
Any genre he sings is perfection.
That was exquisitely beautiful and moving. I loved it 😍 Had not heard this song from David before and thankyou so much for sharing. 🥰
Bravo Maestro!!
I heard David live once with GVB. Toe curlingly good!
There are plenty of fantastic singers out there.....but David has a 10th gear that just goes epic
David did a great job. Best voice ever.
Such a sweet voice! Love it!
AMAZING! I've been a huge fan for many years! Love David! Thank you for the reaction!
Unbelievable. Glad he did some Whitney...because not just anyone can do Whitney, lol. I have heard that David's vibrato have reminded other people of Whitney's. Awesome rendition. Awesome reaction. Thanks, good sir.
Thank you Lyle for this reaction. David was fantastic as always. I have been a fan for over 20 years and never get tired of it. Loved this song and your reactions to it. Thank you for sharing this song. 💖
I love his laugh and his voice.
I love his laugh too!
I can't wait for him to release this song on streaming devices so I can add it to my playlist

Agree a million %
Sublime
True he is amazing! Always!

Prayers for healing and swift recovery!🙏❤
Praying for your healing and I agree with every word you said about both David and Lyle. They're both exceptional in what they do!
@@brendarobinson2154 Amen, Brenda!
Agree, "Second Fiddle" is such a wonderful song--written by David. I wonder if his accountant/banker Dad assisted with some of the lyrics? Great upbeat song. Yes, Lyle should grab it on You Tube and have a listen. Pray you are feeling better.
Absolutely captivating as always ❤

I’ve never been a Whitney fan, so I was avoiding this one. Silly me, David is absolutely incredible as usual. I’m left thinking “Whitney who?”
You know what............ Let's watch it again! lol
You need to have another David Week Special. One song per week is just not enough.
best voice I've ever heard.
SO GOOD!!
Lyle, when you mentioned the cellist stopped playing when David hit that barn-burner of a note, maybe she was just gobsmacked and forgot what she was supposed to play!

Am I the only one who suddenly realized I stopped breathing many times as I listened to this? (admittedly for the hundredth time) GOAT!
Lol, I think I was just gobsmacked by the performance.
I thought I was the only one that was thinking, “How did she flippin’ concentrate with David standing there slaying it?”
@@leeannkaplan57 I thought the exact same thing. It must take lots of training for her to get through that performance and not jump up and start clapping! She sure was lovely, though. Oh, I might as well watch it again while I'm here 😀
That silence was definitely planned. She did not forget anything.
I wasn't sure how this was going to turn out, but as usual, David blew my mind. Absolutely amazing. I hope they release Unchained Melody from the stream. It was amazing as well.
I think you probably meant to say I Can’t Help Falling In Love. It would have been great though if he had done Unchained Melody.
Heard it. Great job.
Perfect!
LOVED this song by David. I knew he would do PHABULOUS on this. He can sing anything. It doesn't have to be gospel. Your reaction was spot on, as usual, Lyle! I also loved how the video kept going from color to B&W and switching back and forth through the song. Very well done!
David Phelps is doing secular music. And Carrie Underwood is singing gospel. My world has been turned askew. He did great and love your reaction.
He's done it before
Yes, throughout his career he has often thrown in the occasional secular song. In fact his album The Voice is full of them.
Awesome 💖💕
A good song with a few artists from Bill's corral of stars, always good music
Hey Lyle you should do a reaction to David and the Gaither Vocal Bands song Come to Jesus. Amazing!!
Have you seen him perform End of the beginning at Carnegie Hall
Really really good! have you seen Gabriel Henrique singing the same song ? It is also amazing!!!
This shows you the kind of money and fame David could have had. It was right there for the taking. He chose to use that gift to give glory to God and bless millions of people in the process. I bet he’s pretty happy with that decision. Lay up your treasures in heaven, what does it profit a man to gain the world and lose his soul?
No words needed .... 13:48
There is another song he sung on this special where the guitar player and David are standing in a field. I can't think what the name of it was. I'm sure someone will tell you.
“I can’t help falling in love.” It was very beautiful when David sang it. Ballads really show the beautiful tone he has.

Are we sure he's in his 50's??
Notice its black and then white. The streaming was in black and white a few clips was in color
The songs were in black and white. The stories were in color.
Has David Foster heard this?
