Good reaction by Ovela because he reacted based on what he heard and didn’t focus on something that “he wants to hear” like m-angel. Here’s the thing, the song itself is not very popular because it is not performance-friendly so even Mariah tried to avoid doing this song live because of the precise timing it requires for every transition and the continuous singing in high notes with riffs and runs. The song does not need to be interpreted with angst because it’s message is about standing back up through something bigger than one’s self. So what m-angel tried to find is something that she can’t find even with the song’s original singer. Ang also, what’s the deal with hating the brand of Jona? Her brand is classy, professional, purposive, and to be consistently excellent. Why don’t you try to check on your fave girls (Morisette and Katrina) on their frequent dropping of notes and changing of melody and tempo to fit their vocal range? Compare that to how Jona delivers in her every performance-most often her performances are flawless which might lead a new listener that she doesn’t sing live. She’s a class act. Don’t ask her to become amateur-ish-she doesn’t need big movements and unnecessary vocal ad libs to deliver. She’s perfectly great just the way she is.

Yes, JONA really has this crystal-clear tone and that makes her standout. Looking forward to more JONA reactions from you guys. Thank you! 😊

She may not be a fan of Jona’s technique but there’s no doubt that she’s an amazing singer. Jona is the definition of a textbook singer she sings and attacks the songs given to her just like the original artist would do no need to tweak or put twist to it because she can hit the notes with ease. I get what M-Angel is saying, at the end of the day it comes down to personal preference. That being said, I choose Jona over Morissette and Katrina any given day.

She is not missing anything. It boils down to a personal PREFERENCE which is normal.

High and low notes are on Point + her super head voice 👌❤️ PERFECTION 👏 👏 👏

Jona is super awesome! Same with operatic/coloratura sopranos, she is able to extend her head voice beyond "high F" (F6) without utilizing the vocal production associated with the whistle register but remaining in the modal register. She also has a round, resonant, and powerful chest register; and is able to hit a "high C" (C6) with a mixed voice. Totally incomparable. Wow.

She is a WORLD CHAMPION ,,8 GOLD MEDALS IN WCOPA,,,!!!

THAT WAS AMAAAAAZING.! I REALLY LOVE HER.!

M-angel on her WCOPA days she beats all of the country with her own Voice amd that is Jona.. It is just like The Miss Universe of singing and until now still Philippines dominating that Event..

“Pretty close to whistling” - nice term! Although she cannot do the whistle notes, her headtones are enough and she did an awesome job. =)

Mariah carey: i dont know her...... crickets Jona is probably my fave next to regine in terms of vocal technicalities. Very clean

So genuine reaction for both of you guys! I'm also agree that Jona was so phenomenal with this video. She killed it. I love it and really enjoyed as well 😊

Thank you MGN for featuring another Jona's performance.Though we can't deny the fact that they have their own favorite singer based on their reaction, we as Jona's fan should respect it. After all, everyone has his/her unique taste when it comes to music.

Thank you Ovela for clarifying that there is nothing missing from Jona it's about M Angel's preferrence. Thank you guys.. Thank you also M Angel for admitting that Jona is good.

I am so happy, you reacted to this performance of her, and you liked it (bonus) .... I know i am just one of those many who requested it but still, thank you. You two are always my favorite reactors eversince.

Omg perfect. Loved this

The artist made her originality particularly from 3:05 till the end... That clarity and laddering notes hit by her making it Phenomenal. There are few like her that can play the whole spectrum of musicality. Nice reaction btw...

YOU KNOW IT'S A LEGIT WONDERFUL PERFORMANCE WHEN YOU GOT THESE TWO CELEBRATE AFTER THE VIDEO. Thanks for this!

I live Jona ever since shes amazing singer all over the world.

Awww. Thank you guys. Great reaction!

'We never gave her the credit that she deserved'.... exactly!

I AM STARTING TO LOVE THE TWO OF YOU! ☺️💛.. YOU SHOULD KNOW MORE OF HOW BROAD JONA IS CAPABLE OF! 👍😊.. IT IS COUNTLESS! FOR ME SHE IS THE FINEST SINGER IN THE PHILIPPINES! AND DESERVES TO BE ENTITLED AS THE NEXT ASIAS QUEEN OF SONGS! WE WILL WAIT FOR YOUR REACTION OF MACARTHUR PARK!

Woooow 💗💗 thank you for reacting to this video 💗 I am Jona's fan, and it makes me really happy to watch your reaction. Love lots 💗 I subscribed because of her 😍

Jona is really one of the Princesses, she deserves it a lot!

For all the belters we have in the Phil, she's a breath of fresh air.

oh my jona! 😉 both of u seemed to be more energized than u used to be ... cheers!

We Love Jona ❤️❤️❤️ She inspires us and thats more important 😊😊😊 Thank you for this we are so happy 🙏🏻 She's very Kindness and down to earth

Jona can do everything, the 2 girls can’t but they’re all good in so many ways..

Jona is the opposite of Mori so please be objective in making reactions.

Love this reaction! Ovela is pumped!!! MAngel's shopping illustration is just hilarious!!! We can see Mariah (and Jonah) shopping for them notes! Haha

EVER TALENTED #QUEENJONA STUNNING! 👑⭐️♥️✨ YOU DON'T NEED TO OVERDO IT. EMOTIONS WERE FELT SO MUCH! 😊💕 M-ANGEL IS AN OBVIOUS FAN OF A DIVA WHO BREAKS NOTE WHICH ISN'T EVEN A MUSIC TO EAR. 😆😒😂

Buwahaha! "Shopping for notes" plus your reactions to that line being said were funny!

Hey girl. One thing is for sure. You're A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G !!!!

I definitely love voices with texture. Have been a fan of this channel for years now, but I really dont get it when they said Jona's voice was generic. Jona for nearly two (2) decades now has proven to us Filipinos her vocal prowess, and nothing has changed. We are still lucky to get to hear Jona's voice.

It was a divine performance and I appreciate your honest opinion at the end of the day your a fan of other artist and we're fans of jona. Atleast it is safe to say that you've been amazed with this particular performance of her through your facial reactions :)

It's always such a joy to watch you guys react to vidz, your chemistry is beyond on point! Always look forward to any all things done by you. Love you!

I agree. This song was MUSICALLY COMPLETE to all ingredients. That's how genius Mariah Carey was, as a songwriter/artist/performer. #NoteShop 😂

Wow thank you for this guys

I think the best way to react to this is to watch the original first.

Haahahhaha shop for notes cracked me. Love it

actually she can also whistle but not the same level as morisette i think she didn’t harness her whistling skills but she really can but not yet mastered like mori.i love mori and jona and katrina .seriously they are the successor to our Filipina divas

So obvious that Jona loves Mariah❤️ that part In 4:08 , that staccato was not part in the studio version, only in live stages. So she obviously watches her performances! I LOVE LAMBS😝❤️ Also Minnie Ripperton actually whistled in the mainstream music industry before Mariah Carey😊

Thank you so much for reacting! She deserves this! :) 👏👏 God bless to the both of you :)

As a fan, this performance makes me so proud. And your reaction after the vid... hahaha. It's a confirmation and affirmation. ♥♥♥

Actually shes monster beast of all beast here in phil. And shes known about it because of her fearless voice. She is the only singer here in the phil who have a longest breath aside from regine. She ates notes haha. M own opinion. Martin Nievera said that all filipino voice are in her one voice. Thank you for recognizing her shes great.

That was flawless and perfect at my end. There is nothing missing about her singing. What’s missing is not about her singing. It’s her presence. She does not have that intangible x factor that draws and sucks you in to a performance. Something that artists like Regine, Sarah, and Mori has a lot of. Jona is too shy and timid. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but to have a commanding performance, you need to have that strong stage presence. That’s why Regine is queen. Because it does not even matter how talented those other performers are on stage, the moment Regine steps in that stage, she sucks everyone’s attention to her. Something that I hope Jona can develop. Jona is a vocal powerhouse comparable, or even surpassing, her contemporaries. But she needs that x factor to even carry her higher.

She is JONA!💛 Thank you for your honest reactions! Thank you for the love!💛

Damn! so good, live song without back up singers, she's so great, one of hardest song by Mariah Carey, Jona is damn good...I love her voice...Thanks for your reaction...god bless..

"Shopping for notes" hahaha u guys are the best! You know a singer has a lot of potential when they can do a mariah song justice. :)

I appreciate this reaction. But I think you're missing the whole point of this performance. You missed out the passion and heart Jona has given every time she sings. I get it, to each his own. Taste is everything. Its not your cup of tea. Etc. But as for me, we don't need any validation from other people, that Jona is really really good. If you think to your own self that jona is a great singer, that's already a valid reason. Of course, it feels nice that international audience appreciates Jona's talent. But if YOU feel Jona is a talented singer.... We're on the same page! Props to JONA!!! 💚💚💚

finally, u showed us a little bit of your talent which I had been wondering and waiting since the first time I had watched one of your reaction video. bcoz of that ...subscribed.

Atlast long wait is over.. Thanks guys for reacting to jonas performance.. Love u guys

All hail to the queen 👑👑👑👑

"yeah... vocal gymnastics, etc. but something is missing...." Translation: I can't do what this girl can do so I'm envious and insecure.

What I like most of your reaction was when Ovela smiled so many times while watching Jona, it's like he couldn't believe how crystal clear her voice was, and yes, when you hear her sing live, it's as if it was recorded. 😍

I must say, she got a crystal-clear voice! I can hear the passion and just pure talent. I'm so inlove with this girl.

Shes awesome

Thank you for the two of you! 👍☺️ I just wanted to comment on the thing that M-Angel is looking after.. or she found it lacking to Jona.. i believe it is what we Filipinos call it as “ANGAS” that Jona should put some “ANGAS” in singing.. it means some air.. or some boldness, or show some fierce.. well... if you will know.. Jona is known here as the Fearless Diva and Soul Princess.. she is sweet while singing, but fearless in a sense that she will actually sing and give justice, or even make better rendition, no matter how hard a song is.. no matter who the singer is.. coz she really has this SOOOOO SO SO WIDE RANGE OF CAPACITY! From perfect intonation, to beautiful timbre, crystalline tone, bright color, crispy texture, unimaginable lung power, and heart-melting voice. With the “Angas” thing, she might not meet your expectation, but u should really check her rendition of MacArthur Park.. hahaha.. she is really a sweet-hearted woman which makes her a Sweet-hearted Diva on stage.. that’s why u might be feeling that way. Hehe. But no offence.. ☺️.. i love your reaction! It’s so real! 🌹💛

I love mgn and m-angel's honesty so much.. When I first saw Jona I really liked her voice but it didnt made me love her voice. I was also looking for that uniqueness but no wondershes one of the greatest singers in the country and i'm now a huge fan of her.

oh yeas baby! My Jonalyn Viray 😍 Thank you for this reaction video.

I believe this is her time now to showcase her talent to the next.level of greatness though it's indeed a vocal massacre singing Mariah Carey song but this is too common for Filipino singer singing tracks from RegineV.Whitney H., Celine Dione,& Mariah Carey 😃😀

A big good morning from algeria love u bouth nd wish u the best بالتوفيق ان شاء الله

I’ve been waiting for you guys to react to this video. Yehey!!!! Shopping for notes tho hahahahahahhahaha love it!!

Ovela: "Bandwidth!"🎤🎵🎼🎶 M-Angel: "Vocal shopping for notes!"🎤🎶🎼🎵 Quotes for the day!👍👍😀😀😀

You should see her duet with Regine! They sang I Believe I Can Fly!

finally yeaaahs!

Omg! I have been waiting gor this!!!

HER WHISPER AND HEADVOICE IS EVERYTHING

Cant wait for mc arthurs park. Love you guys 😋😘

jona😍💓

I was waiting for you guys to react with this jona my saving grace cover and ist finally!! So nice to watch you guys 🤣🤣🤣🤣

The thing is jona is the definition of class.

Thanks for this reaction! Exactly the point here is, you really not into the texture of her voice.. But thank you coz we can feel your admiration to her because she's undeniably great and an excellent performer..We, her believers did not like her right away. But gradually we appreciated her talent and humbleness as time goes by and she continued to capture our hearts as she continues to give her heart all out in her craft..

Great ! 🎶

shes one of our good singer in Manila,She has a golden voice.

I can't move on with "shopping for notes." HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Queen jona!😍😘

Maybe what the girl has been looking for is the "angst" , or what we call "agressiveness" ? I guess? Coz Jona is very opposite of Mori and katrina and kz... Jona is very finesse, she has very lady gestures, she prioritizes doing control and soft tones plus classic techniques, unlike the others who are "thugs" , with lots of body movements, with lots of growls, with lots of "high-volumed vocals" .... Where having high volume does not mean vocals are truly powerful or notes are high... Jona is Jona... Nothing is missing with jona... What Mori can, Jona can, what jona can, most likely mori cannot, like reaching G#5 motes and higher... And 21-sec notes without breathing...

OMG! She is indeed Phenomenal!

hahaha i soooo love seeing you guys doing reactions!😀💗💗💗very genuine. 😊

Ovela for JONA and the M-angel for mori

its seems like angel is always jealous of all tge filipina singers bet she can never do what jona can do

HAHAHAHHA i like the "shopped the notes" "trying this shoes and this. " 😊❤

I really love their reaction HERE!!!! GOSH HAHAHA!! Thank you ovela and m-angel

The moment they both agreed that Mariah was the first to do whistles, they lost all musical credibility for me. What a joke! Jona is missing vocal texture? -- another joke!

that is why,she's fearless diva..anyways,thank you for reacting her cover version of Mariah's My Saving Grace,pls.kindly do react her lead the way,version..thanks a lot.

the song is hard..very technical! and Jona is a gem!

thank you for reacting to our PrimaJona 😊😄 Love it. I think what makes her different from other divas is like she hits notes with clarity and ease. 😘😘 more power MGN.

Oh try to listen her song till the end of time she did a whistle in that song at almost last part.

One more Filipina singer to add to your list, Rachelle Ann Go, she's a award winning West End and Broadway theater actress, with Miss Saigon (Gigi), Les Miserables (Fantine), and Hamilton (Elizabeth) roles to her credit. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qtulfpaUma7IaIU.html

Loving you both so much... Love your reactions always 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

i like that shopping for notes XD

Please react to Jona's "McArthur's Park"

Hahaha two of you said that she killed it...... she killed that song.... in the end you said something missing? What the heck! clearly two of you don't like jona even before...... shame

Im really genuinely appreciate the recognition for jonalyn... hope you can also react to her performance of all by my self by celine... after her epic representation to worlds performing art and won a lots of gold medals for different categories.... it was insane..... more power MGN

Thanks for the reaction💕

Thumbs up

I think the girl reactor is a frustrated singer.

nobody does it better, specially for this kind of song! Nobody! all the love for Jona!💙💙💙

the "damn" goshhh. plus the "shopping the notes of m-angel" girl, the crown is yours. LOVE IT!
