thank you :)

Pitch:
The pitch was exact and you didn't go flat at all, which is a good thing! I enjoyed listening to it as you didn't force yourself in singing the high notes and used the falsetto instead.
For this, I'm giving it a 100%

Tone:
The tone was smooth and it blends in with the song, and since it's pop, the tone musn't be very soft and you nailed it. But, there wasn't much emotion in expressing the lyrics. I'm not saying it's flat, but the feeling wasn't there. I couldn't feel that I could 'Bring the boys out' :)
For this, I'm giving it a... 85% (feeling is important!)

Pronunciation:
I can understand being a non-korean, the accent is hard to get (like me!) And it's really good enough since I understood the lyrics, it wasn't mumbled, but some parts of the lyrics weren't sung, like the 'B-bring the boys out'
And so I'm giving it a 90% x)

Mixing:
It's perfect! The effects were also used correctly so I'm giving it a 100%~

Comments:
Overall, I enjoyed listening to this.
And in average, the score is 93.75% :)

I'm sorry if it's harsh, I tried my best to sound sincere! :D

Erin darling~ i'm gonna be harsh on you >)

Pitch:
You nailed it! The pitch wasn't flat, it varies so I'm giving a 100%~

Tone:
Is this supposed to a ballad song? Your voice is soooo soft and smooth, but since the instrumental sounds soft, I'll just pass it for now :) There was emotion, and feeling that you're going crazy but not enough, there must be more!! Think of something that could make you crazy and sing it XD I'm giving it a 70%.

Pronunciation:
The pronunciation was exact and for a second there I thought you were Korean x) but then, some parts were mumbled and it sounds foreign, plus I couldn't hear the lyrics frequently, so I'm giving it a 65%

Mixing:
The mixing was perfect, none of the frames was later by one second or faster. I'm pretty sure there aren't any special effects, so it's a 100% for this!

Comments:
Overall, I couldn't hear most of the parts XD Sing louder Erin!!

It's fine ^_^
1st one- MyName, Message

Pitch:
Great effort! But in some parts it was too fast, I know you're playing the piano so it can be understood ^^
I'm giving it a 95%

Tone:
There was less emotions, but from pop, it was changed to ballad version and your voice is so soft and smooth, so it's quite hard to express, the ending though I like! I'm giving it a 90%

Pronunciation:
This I could make it pass, since we're all not korean the accent is hard to catch, and it was clear, only some parts are hard to catch, so I'm giving this a 90%


Comments:
I think you made a greaaatt effort in this since you're singing it while playing the piano. Averagely, 91.67% :)

2nd Song- Bad Boy

Pitch:
This is a 100%, no doubt. Everything was on the spot and I didn't hear any flat notes there.

Tone:
This though, might be lower. There was no emotion at all, the feelings weren't expressed, and you seem very serious in this cover. Loosen up!
Sorry but I'm giving it a 60%

Pronunciation:
80%. The accent, and some parts were mumbled I couldn't really catch it. The beat was too fast, since the original song is quite slow.

Mixing:
There wasn't any mixing, so I'm not gonna count this in.

Comments:
Umm, I think you did great with the singing, but it's not all about just singing, but there's a need to express emotions and feelings through the lyrics of the song. Try it :)
Averagely, 80%

I really had "emotion issues, i guess." lol. A ballad? Uhm, I don't think so.... Here's the official MV if you're not so familiar with the song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vXFefnd9x4

Pitch:
Because the pitch is quite low, some parts were off, and the low notes sound forced, so you might want to increase it like... 3 notes higher? It'd be too high if it's one octave :)
I'm giving it a 90%

Tone:
This was for your friend? Aww, it needs more emotion in this! Something no one can master T__T It sounds mono since it's quite low, so I'm giving it a 60%

Pronunciation:
It's english! Of course, perfect, but some parts were mumbled and it was really hard to hear the lyrics :) 90%!

Mixing:
There was no mixing, I'll pass it.

Comments:
I have none, but you sure can play the guitar (:

I know at 0:29 to 0:36 i'm off the pich ><"
Thanks Vivian ^^ ♥

Pitch:
Some parts were off, and as you said the pitch wasn't right in that period. There were some flat notes, notes that are around 2 notes higher, but it didn't go all around.
I'm giving it a 60% ><

Tone:
The emotion wasn't there ;; I didn't feel it but some were being expressed since it's a ballad song, and so I'm giving it a 80%

Pronunciation:
This is a major problem considering you're not Asian XD But I'm sorry to say it isn't exact, it was hard to hear the words and some were incoherent to my ears :( Plus you tripped on some of the lyrics, am I right?
I'm giving it a 55%

Mixing:
There was no mixing

Comments:
I know you can do better than this Hyu! Don't force yourself in some of the high notes and if you can't sing Korean, then don't :) I heard your Japanese covers and it's really nice!!

Hehe Melody~I'm gonna be harsh :) Don't take it seriously!!

Pitch:
It was off in some parts, especially the high notes, it seems hard to catch so don't force yourself alright!! I'm giving it a C~

Tone:
Emotions were definitely being expressed, but it wasn't enough. I've never heard the song before so I don't know, is it ballad?
And just to add in, don't force the vibrato if you don't have :D People can sound better without them.
I'm giving it a B ^^

Pronunciation:
The 'sh' and 's', as someone have commented, needs to be practiced :) Yes I know Chinese is hard since it's my mom's mother tongue XD
I'm giving it a B

Mixing:
Some parts weren't exact, so I'm giving it a B~

Comments:
Your voice is really cut ^__^ but project it since it's hard to hear in some times :D
Averagely: B- :)

Thanks Vivian, I like the way you criticize.
I'm sorry because I do another cover, with low voice. I don't know why, I love singing with this voice =)
Can you criticize me again please ?

This was much better than the first one, this I know! It's less off pitch since it's low, so I'm giving it a 95%

Tone:
I think you know this. It's a live video, and you're videoing yourself, so it needs a little bit of smile here and there rather than just concentrating on the guitar, making the music feel as though the feelings weren't there.
I'm giving it a 60%

It's another english song~ but the pronunciation was quite off, and so I'm giving it a 95% :)

Pitch:
95%, there was some.... umm I'm not sure how to say but it wasn't exact like half note lower/higher (:

Tone:
Yeay!! There was emotion, although so, it's a rly sad song, and there must be a little bit of contrast in the volume of your voice :D~ I totally love this cover. 90%!!

Pronunciaton:
This is really perfect! We're not korean so if we stumble on the words a bit, it's fine. But this sounded really good and... amazing! I totally love this :D 100%!!

Mixing:
another 95%~ The timing was perfect (just the extremely annoying 'sss' sound of the mic irritates me, and so I deducted marks >o<)

Overall it's... 95%!

I honestly dislike acapella covers, because usually there isn't any harmonies in the bg or just simple singing. This time, I guess I loved it! With the harmonies, I was guessing you didn't do it?
