Andrea Bocelli on American Idol

[Cillik1]

Wow I never thought his english would be so good, why the FUCK did he go to american idol?!!?

[TaoPiet]

The rudeness of the introduction of such an artist...Only on FOX.

Pearls for the swines.

[TheVirtueOfBeauty]

Can you imaging having to follow THAT! Unreal!!!

[Mcbeagle13]

i remeber seeing this when i was little and i was blown away

[loikckc]

this is what we call a real singer, "effortless" like ryan said. True gifted tallent + hard work, i would like to listen to his song over n over again. Andrea u r the best...... For those who critisize him, can u sing better than him?

[lovetodance]

Andrea was waaaay out of these contestants league. They must have been in total aww listening to him.

[tennisprousa1]

American Idol? def not where Andrea should be he is an icon not some wanna be......Andrea the king of music with gods voice.

[THEFOOTBALLFAN]

@tennisprousa1

I agree with you totally. But what better way to be seen by such a huge audience who may not have ever heard of him. Audrea is way out of this shows league, but a smart business move none-the-less.

[duplexa]

So why does that nameless guy praise David Foster right after Bocelli sang? Is it because he is too ignorant to know how to treat a guest? Or is it because he is too arrogant to praise someone who's blind? Or is it because he is stupid enough to think he can beat Bocelli just because he is American? I am sick of this American insensitivity.

[rfletcher09]

@duplexa he didnt forget to praise Andrea he said both of their names together..it was rather quick but he says Andrea bocelli first you just need to listen.....

[duplexa]

@rfletcher09 Hey thanks. You're right. Sorry about that.

[GSeward]

"who is this old guy?" - every moron who watches American Idol

[whokeithmoon]

@GSeward HES YOUR REAL DADDY WHO DID YOUR SKANKIE MOMMA...THATS WHO

[GSeward]

@whokeithmoon ha

[zucchini2007]

To the uploader: In this video title, you really MUST mentioned David Foster on the piano. He's one of the biggest names in the music industry. He has worked with Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion, and so many other legendary artists. And now he's working with Charice in Vegas.

[MrAKL83194]

American Idol doesn't deserve to have Bocelli on it.

[yboss3]

Bocellis is, without argument the best in the WORLD!!!

[deathwreeper]

when he sings with his eyes closed hes singing in the shower.

[metalxwolf]

@deathwreeper Way to be a douche bag. He's blind thats why he has his eyes closed.

[deathwreeper]

@metalxwolf ok chill i didnt know he was blind. and dont hate calling me stupid because im a 17 year old kid that just enjoys the music and doesnt know every detail of said artists lives. my bad its ignorance, YOURE the douchebag. i was making a singing in the shower joke because as a singer i know that stage fright is real and some people picture things to help them deal with it. for example some people imagine their audience is naked in order to take the embarassment off themselves. CHILL OUT

[fcjcan]

@deathwreeper ignorance

[deathwreeper]

@fcjcan read what i wrote in reply to metalxwolf guy.



[BigT021301]

He's the best i just love his voice and personality

[Smily818]

hes italian so hes a natural singer hes one of my favorites singers

[Jamakaize]

Je úžasnej.....no coment

[dastardlly]

How would you like to be the person to perform after that? There couldn't have been anymore singing that day. Surely the next person got booed.

[UltimateStudios32]

beautiful!!!!

[emmapples]

those 7 dislikes must be from the contestants behind him.... i mean, how on earth could they EVER follow that amazing performance?, impossible !

[TZTAAA]

I always feel so bad about him being blind but then he opens his mouth and i forget that he can't see. His voice is absolutely amazing and i'm glad he went on American Idol so more people heard him that wouldn't have otherwise. Even though now days Idol really doesn't deserve him. It kind of went down hill after the first couple of seasons

[ash93stud]

andrea bocelli should sing a duet with adele

[Imforeverone88]

Every ill word I have spoken against Andrea Bocelli in comparison to Pavarotti, Bjorling, Domingo and others, this day, dies and I apologize. He can sing and I am happy he put those American Idolaters in their place by showing them what it really means to sing.

[nahing]

Just his voice alone could make me cry.

[shaor3]

He was born to be a great singer and I wonder why he went on AI he should have his own show.

[ArchAngelHeat]

He Rocks 

[gusjet1]

absolutely superb!!! who can sing after that? After such a moment of greatness,everything sounds empty. These Italian male singers are the best in the world without doubt!

[KapteeniJoe]

7 people dont like american idols.

[alejodanetra]

@KapteeniJoe 7 people think that Bocelli shouldn`t waste his incredible talent singing in that kind of shows. he was born for greater things.

[Dollreviewz155]

@alejodanetra Personally, so long as his name can get around and people discover his true talent, it's not really a bad thing.

[Blaiwnez]

The contestants must feel rather pathetic after hearing Andrea.

[MUDAJOBAS]

@payam91-:DDD

[Boots16316]

I love the way he sings " Ave Maria" and not just because my names is Mary. He does such a beautiful job on it. It gives me cold chills to hear it.

[hlabritz]

anytime, anyone has the opportunity to hear this man sing... we should all pause and be greatful for the experience.

[npaujbais]

He can sing so beautifully.

[davidelafenice]

The name of this song is Because we believe!!!!

[electroalexmty]

what's the name of the song?; men!!!, Andrea Bocelli makes britney spears, christina aguilera, justin bieber, hip hop "singers", and all the plastic music looks like garbage and shit!!! hahaha, really, this dude is heavenly!!

[electroalexmty]

segundo 3:41 jajajajajjajajja el wey quiere que le de un choque de palmas jajajajjaja, imbecil, no veeeeee, jajajja, que wey.

7 dislikes are deaf

[Pauwie10]

@exoticjavaland Because they don't like American Idol. You cannot dislike Andrea Bocelli ;)

[apngeram]

Simon shuts up for a month after this performance... xD

[ap9298]

777 likes, 7 dislikes? Lol. 7 is the number of God, the number of completion/ fulfillment. I'm convinced Andrea Bocelli was gifted with an angle's voice,

[pex98]

I think he was the winner XD !

[MegaXxxJULIExxx]

you know wats so fascinating? theres always tht reply button when ever u need it<3

[xV13TCONGx]

7 dislikes? Wow people.. this guy spent most of his life blind singing from his heart. He's inspirational

[filiandsela]

Best guest star performance on AI EVER. FACT.

[randomjoe333333]

speaks pretty good english for an italian

[mma11762]

Damn you Andrea Bocelli! your voice is so beautiful, that tears are in my eyes. Please any one looking to pursue any type of music career, look first at your classics then bring it to whatever genre of music you wish to perform and just watch what can happen.

[eclecticsteph]

How would you like to follow that act? What a simply beautiful voice and Andrea is certainly easy on the eyes. aj

[richlacroix1]

Andrea is fantastic - as usual!

[CtrlAltDaLEET]

[Xovation]

@CtrlAltDaLEET LMFAO ...best comment!

[eloelo14]

Bocelli has a powerful cry thing on my god

[fotskee]

what a beautiful man

[fatina84]

ita: grandissimo il nostro Andrea, orgoglio dell'Italia intera!!! *_*

ingl: our great Andrea, proud of all of Italy!!!!*_*

[dovevai2002]

Andrea Bocelli is the best singer there is. fucking period, that's it, done, bada bing

[BGPOND30]

@dovevai2002 ...bada bang, "hell ya he is" all i can say is i thank the good Lord that he put us here on earth in the same time period as Andrea Bocelli what a amazing gift we got having him in are world..

[Mikehaarlem]

I love the version with marco borsato. Who likes this song should look that duet up its very nice.

[soccaman04]

the 6 people that disliked this have good reason, what is andrea bocelli doing on this shit show..

[Drsalimassal]

i dont like american idol but i would have watched if i knew he sang there that day

[eclecticsteph]

@ I agree, I really don't like American Idol either, I do love Britain's Got Talent. Bocelli is simply amazing, my God what a voice. He was, of course, Pavarotti's choice to follow him and he's certainly done a wonderful job for his friend and mentor. sj

[Drsalimassal]

i dont like american idol but i would have watched if i knew he sang there

[85nikki96]

Maybe Andrea is a humble enough person to not think he is better than everyone else, and was happy to do Idol.

[AIMOND1]

Andrea bocelli sounds totally awesome on live and album but a lot of other singers sound great on album but bad on live.

[maxtormaxtor]

And why is it that people listen to Kanye West? Can you imagine Bocelli jerking the microphone out of someones hands and telling the world that that person didnt deserve to win? LOL, what exactly IS a Kanye West anyway?

[MrAJK87]

This is a master!!

[thekingoftown07]

the only time I watched American Idol

[EbiTron]

Instawin.

[89Obscure]

Bocelli as a guest star on American Idol? They don't deserve him. He's a REAL singer.

[techNOchannel17]

@89Obscure he is more than just a real singer

[lins0084]

@89Obscure This is too true

[eclecticsteph]

@89Obscure American Idol and Britain's Got Talent has produced some "real" singers too, but I will agree with you that Andrea Bocelli is in a league of his own. The unequaled Pavorotti was his mentor. Bocelli is simply fabulous.

[TaishoKenpachi]

@89Obscure Real Singer? he surpassed that title =)...he is not a singer he's the song...

[willnicholson18]

@TaishoKenpachi i understand what you're getting at, but im not sure i understand the sentence...

[kgrabetz]

how can you dislike this? Even if you don't enjoy classical music, this is talent.

[derfmun]

light ur lighters everybody this is music

[Tommyfazz]

@derfmun shut the ghkgkh up

[ElUnico6917]

what did simon's ignorant ass think of this great musician hmmm probably something fukked up like this "I don't like you, because your Italian and your blind I thought your performance was hogwash!!!! hogwash I tell you!!!! you think I'm gonna acknowledge you or even give you a standing ovation because of your misfortune eye sight BOLLOCKS oh BOLLOCKS I tell you!!! " yeah he's soooo fukked up he would probably say something fukked up like that fukkin strunzo mezzo finook porco puttano!! maiale!

[eclecticsteph]

Bocelli is so amazing and he was Pavoritti's comrade and Pav's choice to succeed him. Not to mention he's so fantastically sexy. I love Simon, but I think he could have been a little more "impressed" ....he's got a super star on his television show.

[100virgin]

sdsds

[huseyingerceker]

the voice of the god...!!!

[47TheSteve]

Somethings require no words but those sung.

[Geminiscaliel]

El hubiera ganado el concurso

[centauri300]

@Geminiscaliel

lol

[DuffyScene]

I would have felt so priviledged to sit in that audience.

[eclecticsteph]

just fabulous, does it get any better than this?

[kornklone]

I love watching his live performances. It is such a treat. With his eyes closed, it looks like he's dreaming....makes the song and performance SO powerful!

[IndoIRP]

@kornklone

He's blind... That's why his eyes are closed.

I love his voice, his voice can make me cry when I need to cry. He is too good for this show

[kornklone]

@IndoIRP I know he is blind. I'm a big fan of his

and well said!

[spanlat65]

whats the name of this song? is beautiful .bocellis voice is so romantic

[fenderguy0982]

My God it's surprising how much controversy this caused.

[2c1496]

His agent probably thought this would be a good idea...he is so far above this trash show

[payam91]

Simon should have cleaned Bocelli shoes during the show

[ansorf]

@payam91 yeah, with the his fucking tongue.

[talidina2]

@payam91 DEFINITIVAMENTE... MAJOR LOL... HE SMACKED SIMON IN THE HEAD WITH ALL HIS BEAUTIFUL NOTES... Having Andrea in American Idol was a little shameful: He is just over the top AWESOME! He will always be my fav... Simon cleaned them and licked them too after he got off stage.

[ledinghat]

@payam91

A better way of putting it is, Simon should have licked his shoes clean during the show. ;)

[youboon]

@ledinghat Or even better Simon should have licked his shoes and then gave away all his money and then killed himself.

[eclecticsteph]

@ledinghat rediculous comment. Simon is as good in his own field of finding true talent as Andrea is as a tenor with a wonderful voice.  sj

[Xovation]

@payam91 Simon? he was shitting his pants..he can't stand up to do that!

[todrrez]

@payam91 Love the comment...

[eclecticsteph]

@payam91 What a wonderful talent this extremely handsome man has. I could listen to him all day and night. Simply stunning voice. I do like Simon however and I would suspect that he wishes he had Andrea signed to his company. Love or hate him, Simon does recognize true talent.

[boomershocker]

personally i think that opera should only be sung in italian or spanish fuck every other language

[danok95]

WTF did the audience just clap during his singing 2 times???

STUPID AMERICANS!! THIS IS NOT A POP SONG

[ajre82]

@danok95

in case you didn't notice, he's not in an opera theater singing in front of cultural elites, but on a televised pop music show. why don't you cool your jets and pull your head out of your own ass.

[danok95]

@ajre82 My head is not in my ass

[wainerkorven]

@danok95 Just noticed the same thing in Canto Della Terra from albert hall. You should check it out anyway, its amazing!

[talidina2]

@danok95 omg I thought the same thing!!!! These people didn't have a CLUE OF HOW TO ACT BEFORE SOMEONE TRUELLY TALENTED!!! WHAT A SHAME AMERICA...

[bakenshake829]

@danok95 Do you know anything about opera? It is very normal and very accepted to clap after a hitting a high note. Watch any vide of Andrea Bocelli and you will see that. The Italians clap more than the Americans and Italians know a little bit more about opera, so stop being so prejudice against Americans. Finding stupid ways to blame them for something that is not wrong

[polychronio]

Andrea Bocelli is the music.

[jraybay]

HE IS TOO GOOD FOR THIS GARBAGE SHOW!!

[sarahgojyo]

oh com'on! they can never beat this guy

[Spadadiforza]

Andrea is not there to legitimize the show, he is there to legitimize the dreams of those who live to sing. What better way to inspire them than to serve them perfection on a silver platter. Viva Andrea!!!

[shadowofMimi]

He's an Idol...and he's someone all future singers can look up to.

[torro454]

I wondered what the heck is he doing on American Idol. Well, think about it, for Die fuckkopf(not a cuss word) that can't figure it out. He is naturally, reaching out to the younger generations. Give them something to aspire to. Plus, see the technical capabilities of a classically trained singer of his caliber. It takes years of training!

[BrianMalone89]

domination

[rochele24]

andrea bocelli is toooooooo much for american idol , american idol is full of american dickhead amateurs .

no american can realize his talent

[wrestlingmydogs]

@rochele24 I'll ignore your obvious ignorant prejudice bordering on racism and get to the point: You're an idiot. You have no way of knowing how everyone in America competes with Bocelli and in fact, while Bocelli is admirable, he has been criticized for having a lack of basic technique, such as breath support. Some have even claimed his high soft notes are thin, raspy, and bordering on suffocation.

[azonbokkonayerozegar]

@wrestlingmydogs u are certainly of those who believe American are superior and everyone from America is perfect and the other people around the world are lazy and crazy .

shut up red neck

boceli's voice is over your understanding

[gwe100]

@azonbokkonayerozegar you damn right!!!!!

[azonbokkonayerozegar]

@gwe100 you don't like it ?

[gwe100]

@azonbokkonayerozegar no.no. you misunderstood me.. I think bocelli is the best thats all...

[THECRAZYDUDE18]

@azonbokkonayerozegar

Lol they all rush out for some reason....better than any of them will ever be haha

[wrestlingmydogs]

@humm1na Wrong.

Lol so much better than any American Idol....

[Jordanpuya23]

This is why i love being Italian! Grew up listening to both him and Pavarotti :) Both are absolutely incredible!

[MxGChainsaw]

@Jordanpuya23 i agree, being italian kicks ass

[Laxy2009]

Who cares where he sings, or on what show or with who..... He sounds so beautiful.

[reiuss23]

I wonder what simon cowell said..
