His voice is technically good but for a song like that... it just didn't work, it was really obvious that he didn't understand the lyrics. I doubt he's ever even had a "proper" girlfriend, let alone experienced heartbreak, and if you can't understand the meaning of a song's lyrics then you can't put any soul into it.
Case in point; Alexandra Burke's "Hallelujah". Technically, an very good vocal performance. But she didn't "get" the lyrics at all, she blatantly didn't understand what they were about AT ALL, she spent half of the video... smirking :/. It's a cynical, angry, almost sarcastic song. She sang it like a happy gospel prayer. And as a result, it was soulless drivel.
