When he was on Idol I thought he was great. I also was right that those who voted just didn't get him. And Simon should be kicking himself because he always made fun of this guy. Him and Adam Lambert were the two best male voices ever on Idol
i have been a fan of him since her first audition in AI. I am from Argentina, but living in spain, and i will really like to see him on a concert in live.
He's actually a student at Berklee College of Music in Boston now. He's also singing with the Beantown Swing Orchestra who are playing at my wedding next summer- I'm very excited! Check them out on here and you can see recent performances from John.
Wow. He's just amazing, I mean really. I've been such a fan since his first audition at Idol...but this was just breathtaking. I wish the people on Idol would have him back to do something like this so they could eat their words from back when they said they needed an Idol people could be proud of, referring to him as though they couldn't be proud of him. Ugh.
PsychoT has it right...pure simple voice..it's my listening to Michael Buble the last few days that made me seek out John, and I honestly think that John is in the same league as Michael... keep singing those "standards"...I'm so glad this style of singing is making a comeback during my lifetime as I'm a "little" too young to have enjoyed it the first time around.
He has a pure simple voice and was one of my favorites that season. If he hadn't made such poor song choices (he should've listened to Elton John and not sing Crocodile Rock) he could've gone further. I hated that people were actually being mean and threatening this kid. He didn't deserve that. I also enjoyed his record.
She announced the wrong song title. But John sang "Someone To Watch Over Me" quite well. I'd love to see more quality singers of quality material like this. True musicianship and unique individual interpretation. America's true original artform; JAZZ. I like forward to watching you grow John!
John Stevens is the greatest American Idol contestant ever, because he's the only one who has a decent voice and doesn't just over sing every line in every song, like all the other american idol contestants do.
I think at least two others Disco, and it sounds like your beef is because someone liked him better than your girl Tasia. AI is over, so even if he came back to the scene, im sure someone is not forcing you to buy his cd, or go see him in concert. Therefore, I don't get why you care.
My "beef"?! Lol. First of all, I've never really been a fan of Fantasia's – I'm a Jennifer Hudson fan, so stop presuming things, "hurried one". Second, AI <i>IS</i> over, so why do you care that I am leaving comments about him?!
Oh, that explains even more than, if your a fan of Jennifer. Hey, I like her too, but just sayin. When I said "AI is over", you missed my point. I meant, the show is over, so you don't have to worry about seeing him sing every week. If he puts out more music, it's "optional" for you to listen to it or buy it, unlike on AI. Ya get it now?
Nope – point well taken. You're curious as to why I've appeared on several John Stevens clips and left comments. It's a free country. Besides – someone keeps sending me these clips....
He was signed to a major label Mona(Maverick), but left that label a while ago and seems to be focusing on school for now. I have a feeling when he graduates we will hear from him again.
Why are you so obsessed and commenting on all his videos Disco? It's weird. It's totally fine and understandable if you don't like him or his voice, it's your opinion. However, why do you care if other people DO like his voice?
OMG I can't believe the voice, excuse me THE VOICE on this kid. I completely missed him didn't watch Idol that year...wow, somebody must have signed him.
He is a funny looking ginge !

I always thought this guy had great potential to please us with his voice.
If he could only find a good coach he'd earn a lot of money singing.
It would help too... if he could improve his memory... which is impared by nerves.
Give it a go John... show us what you can do...!!
