Through The Fire by Chaka Khan (Male Cover by Johann Mendoza) 

Thumbs up if you could listen to Johann Mendoza all day. What a stunningly melodic voice. This man has it. The 2020s is the decade we came to RU-vid to hear the world's best contemporary singers.

This is the best male version of Through the Fire, I've ever heard

My boy hitting those high notes like he’s buttering bread.

Brothers! This is not an easy song to cover. Chaka's range and power on this number are nothing short of heroic and I don't mind echoing from someone's previous comment, "the best male cover" that I have heard. And guitar man, you jammed the mess out of the song. BLESSINGS guys! -KB

The guitarist was consistent and tight. Great job.

That rhythm on the guitar is smokin'.....and the vocal is thru the roof...and the timing is spot on....just a brilliant version, one of the best, thx for posting....

The guitarist though..wow!! The best guitar rendition ive ever heard for this song ....easily!!

I look in your eyes and I can see We've loved so dangerously You're not trusting your heart to anyone You tell me you're gonna play it smart We're through before we start But I believe that we've only just begun When it's this good, there's no saying no I want you so, I'm ready to go [Chorus:] Through the fire To the limit, to the wall For a chance to be with you I'd gladly risk it all Through the fire Through whatever, come what may For a chance at loving you I'd take it all the way Right down to the wire Even through the fire I know you're afraid of what you feel You still need time to heal And I can help if you'll only let me try You touch me and something in me knew What I could have with you Well I'm not ready to kiss that dream goodbye When it's this sweet, there's no saying no I need you so, I'm ready to go [Chorus] Through the test of time [Chorus] Through the fire, to the limit Through the fire, through whatever Through the fire, to the limit Through the fire, through whatever

Sa totoo lang, tama ang mga observations niyo na magaling, malinis at under control ang guitarist eh, pero mad props to the singer pips! Kataas ng kanyang boses and ang linis ng falsetto niya guys, mad love during ECQ! ❤️

It's 11-27-2021 must say still listening 🎶 this is the finest version I have ever heard in years, ,love this,

WTF!!! in 20 years I have not heard this beautiful song performed by anyone other then Chaka Khan in this way. Brov, your voice, your skills got me...I'm hooked when and where are you performing, I'm there. Absolutely Brilliant. Thank you thank you

The voice, the guitar, the high notes, the best cover i ever seen, awesome 👌 . Saludos de México

How has this been on YT for 7 years and I'm only hearing it for the first time now? Well done bros 🔥🔥🔥

STILL LISTENING AND LOVING can't HELP it every single day I have to hear this,

Dude you could sing an apple pie recipe and it would sound amazing! Phenomenal voice!!!

Still LISTENING AND LOVING ANYONE ELSE 10-2020

OMG the voice! Not a lot of singers dare to sing Chaka Khan.

Johann is so underrated. Idol ko tlga to. If he performs abroad or in the US for sure sisikat to in an instant

Every memory of this song, including my own renditions of this classic, have now been overturned and reignited by you, brother! Thank you for bringing a few tears of joy to this old guy's eyes! So much respect! Gracias por tu alma!

This is the best male version of this song I've ever heard. Mad props!

props to the guitarist as well. very clean playing man! can really hear the clarity of every note coming out of that Taylor :)

I am still LISTENING AND LOVING

my goodness your guitarist is very good...

Philippines has some amazing guitarists... and singers too of course

Definitely the best cover of this song. Guitarist was immaculate. I've always been hooked to this song, but now I feel like I wasted 7 years of my life NOT listening to this.

April 16 Corona Quarantine. This is so good. Makes us more depressed why we don't even have an ounce of talent.

Love when a male vocalist takes on a female composition. You killed it bro. And the guitarist, damn. I need those chords.

obsessed with this song currently and this cover. it’s bad how many times i’ve watched this in the last 24 hours lmao

STILL LISTENING AND LOVING! ANYONE ELSE 11-21-2020

This makes me cry every time

Straight up Filipino talent my brothers..mabuhay!!✊✊✊

I am still LISTENING AND LOVING, both are so TALENTED,

ito dapat yung mga nabibigyan ng malakign break at sumisikat sa buong mundo. napakagaling mo idol! i can definitely hear stevie wonder's influence in his singing

oh man, what a version! Vocalist Johann is killing it with his range and the guitarist is killing it further with those chord progressions!

Both of you men are very talented. I grew up with this song. I never thought that a man can sing this with an Rhythm and Blues vibe to it.

As a song that reminds me of my deceased mother, he ate this up!

one of my fav Chaka songs, great cover.

I'm miss mom singing this song when i was just a kid! What a song!

Very difficult song to sing for both female & male voices --- you nailed it!

That voice... Indonesian here for love ur voice🇮🇩

BEST EVER the voice is so wicked and that guitar is on fire!

This is absolutely brilliant, great rendition of a great song!!

So good. Perfect balance of staying true to original while still making it your own. I do wish you had done the higher part on the very last chorus but it’s very tricky for the male voice. Bravo!

That guitarist is on another level god level great ear he almost played parts of the song that the other instruments play flawless singer also near perfect

Brilliant and stunning rendition! You've just made me your biggest fan. And, the guitarist, wow, some mad skills.

grabe stunning voice and the guitarist sobrang galing naman

Great voice and mad guitar skills !! 🎸😎

This singer and guitar duo is very strong

Brother from another mother Lol, Johann you are such a talented artist, the world needs to hear! Praying 🙏 you get a break

A ‘ go to’ reference when describing vocals + great guitar. Just perfect! Hope the guitarist gets greater gigs, he’s special.. got the X factor. Thanks for sharing.

Guitarist is killing it. Nice cover…..

Do you ever hear or see something so immensely impressive that it borders on killing your own inspiration? Like this is so good that it both makes me want to go practice and improve, but I also know that I’ll, realistically, never be to come close to this level of talent. I can’t stop listening.

WOAH WOAH WOW STOP THE PRESS! THIS VOICE IS EPIC DEEP, SOULFULL, AND RICH KEEP THEM COVERS COMING!!!!

johann endoza is sheer amazing. How is it we don't hear of him nowadays, nor reation to his songs ?? He is evn better thn the present crop of wish bus singers like pangiinan, daryl and kris.

i guest na to dapat sa 107.5 wish fm 👏👏👏👍👍👍✊👈

He is hitting them notes so effortlessly! He sounds amazing 🤩

Smooth as heck...while preserving the original emotions...Special

one of the greatest cover .The vocalist vocal range is incredible and his guitarist is a monater

Damn! Your vocal style is off da hook! You have great vocal control with a very nice sweet sultry flow...that knows when and how to sway up the scales then bringing the rhythm to a nice smooth, sweet sound.

I can't believe I am just discovering your voice. AMAZING!!!!!!!! I could listen to you for hours.

Mashallah!! You have such a beautiful voice! I hope Chaka Khan herself hears this cover

Kahit ilang ulit ko pakinggan ang gagalingg talaga. Walang autotune + galing ni guitarer! 🤓🤘🏽🇵🇭

Mukhang kakalabas lang ng opis ang gitarista. Very nice.

Best cover of this song I've ever found.

Hands down to the guitar man! And of course to the singer, how could you look so effortless belting those high notes?
