1. [+828] While there are many singers who practice vocalization before singing, it’s super cool that he went into the song immediately.
2.[+806] I’m a 37 year old guy and my tears flow naturally when I listen to this song. How do I put it… it’s a feeling that touches the heart that cannot be described through words. Thank you Domoto Tsuyoshi-san for singing this wonderful song with your voice.
3. [+732] I really wonder how he was able sing like this. Does he have a huge tank inside his body? Anyway, he’s really good at singing, this is the best first take.
4. [+545] I don’t dislike Johnny’s and I think there are many amazing people there but isn't it too nonsensical to categorize this person as just the “best singer among Johnny’s”? He’s too unique… He just has that overwhelming technique and expressiveness and it permeates into every corner of the body and mind in despair. I’ll watch it many times, thank you.
5. [+542] I had the chance to listen to his acapella a long time ago, I didn’t really like him before that but the moment I heard his singing voice, I was moved and shaking, thinking “this person’s voice is a musical instrument!”. He owns tremendous talent. There must have been various hardships but his singing voice never loses its colour (never fades), it’s really amazing.
6. [+531] I first learnt about this song on the First Take. I could tell that he must be someone who knows people’s pain and my insides was wrenching while I listened to it.
7. [+457] His expressiveness is too amazing…I hope he will sing Original Color next time.
8. [+454] This is the best. It resonates in my heart.
9. [+441] It seems like he devised this method of singing by himself. That’s why it won’t be the same as others. He’s a person born with art engraved in his soul, a genius… How many people can sing such heart wrenching songs like him?
10. [+343] I came running here when I heard about this through online news. I’m not a fan in particular but I’m really attracted to Tsuyoshi-kun’s singing voice. He’s really good.
11. [+253] His singing ability is really amazing despite his hearing issue. For me personally, he’s No.1 ever in Johnny’s for singing ability. His singing is good but I also really like his voice.
