Kjære Martin! Din versjon av Tom Waits' Take it with me. Sant, rent religiøst, tårene spratt. Så utrolig vakkert! Dette var awesome. Jeg håper virkelig at du kan skape en karriere av å synge. Jeg er fan allerede, men må innrømme at denne Waits-låta tok meg helt på senga, og din tolkning - nei, jeg finner ikke ord. Gratulerer og alt godt, Martin. En verdig vinner.

En utrolig bra stemme. Magisk!

FOR en stemme! Hadde gitt alt jeg eier og har for å høre Martin synge You'll Never Walk Alone, hymnen til mitt elskede fotballag, i tillegg til Frank Mills fra musikalen Hair. Perfekt stemmeleie for hans unike vokal
