  • God, I love her...

  • play holy toledo

    

  • anybody who watch some music videos or listen songs here always pretend to be good in music but the truth is that they are not. hahahaha

  • Amazing thing to listen to these studio versions. She recorded her first album doing these. Take these tracks and compile them to an album format and I'd buy it. Really good stuff.

  • crystal is hot..... and what a voice

    

  • poor Lennon....

    GOSPEL GODDESS

  • I think this is her best song along American Idol... Yet the other songs give me chills everytime i watch her on American Idol...

  • G** Damn!.....tell me again why she didn't win American Idol?? This woman is the real thing and than some. You go Crystal.....you are an amazing soul and have a talent that is out of this world. Would love to hang with you...have a good one.

    Essie

  • she's got a sexy voice, DAMN!

  • Thanks Crystal. Quirky song... great rendition.

    Looking forward to your first CD Dec. 14, 2010.... first of many in a long career!

    Congratulations!

  • Does anyone know the chords for this version? I love it

  • this is what you call music ppl do you remember the word instruments and not electronic sounding studio crap especially natural vocals and not autotune go crystal!

  • i love her version and i love this song :)

    great job crystal

    thanks 4 uploading!

    please check out my videos!

  • @jadezxy there is NOTHING wrong with Kris Allen and David Cook. Especially since they are completely different types... I agree, Crystal is fantastic, but Kris Allen, David Cook, and some "little boy bands" are pretty good too.

  • Like last year where I thought Adam Lambert should had won I think Crystal should had won this year. She was by FAR the best. But it doesn't really matter, she will be a huge star - like Adam and other runner ups - anyway !!! All the best to Crystal from Denmark.

  • Lennon and MJ both have better versions. MJ's is the best. This sounds more like the MJ version, but with country vocals. The Chuck Berry sound seems to be missing from this version, which is too bad.

  • @titusjewell I would take this seriously except...

  • Crystal is not only over the top talented, she's smokin' hot gorgeous too. My only MINOR complaint is that most of the 'Idol' season, she kept her dreads up...

    OH, and THIS specific song was my FIRST favorite song of my life, so it holds a special place...and to hear Crystal singing it just shakes my soul

  • Amazing amazing amazing..

    I cant get over her voice.

    I have every song she sung on my ipod and its all I have

    been listening to.

    I cannot wait for this girls album.

  • @horsegal.....I listened to Carly Smithsons version hers was god to, but lacked the soul Crystals version has

  • Yeah, Crystal! Great version of "Come Together!"

  • This is HOT!!! I love this version of this song. She was ripped off in Idol but she will still be around for years to come. Awesome lady!! Go Mama Sox!!!!

  • Carly Smithinson did it way better. But um is this "sing the same songs as last season" season? i didnt watch it at all this year, so im checking it now but im def confused... xoxo lovely

  • you'll really know it if she's d 1 singing. i can easily recognize her voice.!

  • sugar coated corporate bullshit ,,, why? and joss stone called, she wants her act back

  • @drummingfordrunks Good thing that 3/4 of america doesnt know who joss stone is and dont care about what YOU of all people think.

  • Ya all like Crystal? Put your money where your mouth is. Do the right thing. Buy her songs on itunes for $1.29. Simple as that. Please, no illegal downloads!

  • Ya all like Crystal? Put your money where your mouth is. Do the right thing. Buy her songs on itunes for $1.29. Simple as that. Please, no illegal downloads!

  • Ya all like Crystal? Put your money where your mouth is. Do the right thing. Buy her songs on itunes for $1.29. Simple as that. Please, no illegal downloads!

  • WE love you crystal :)

  • she was GREAT that night!!!!!

  • I see BIG things in the future, for Crystal.. she SHOULD HAVE been, the next American Idol.. she WILL GO FAR..

  • MAMA SOX ROCKS!!!!! <3<3

  • i love her, but honstly i love lee better, but im so glad they are both in the final, either way it goes they will both get a recording contract..so im very happy, but sorry to break too ya most likely lee is gonna win, cause studies show that woman and teeen girls watch idol and vote more, and they usaully go for the guys,,,soooooo, but i love both of them!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @christ0pher420

    The difference...

    Lee= Off-Tune, Can't Really Sing... Looks saved him.

    Crystal= EASILY SHOULD HAVE WON, But really glad she didn't so shes not forced to do what THEY want her to do!

  • Vote for the STAND OUT Talent and ARTIST who is Unique, Original, Versatile with powerful vocals = Vote for MAMASOX!

    Don't vote for replaceable, interchangeable, substitutable mainstream voice who sings in only one style and has limited vocal range and sings off-tune easily and habitually.

  • Reggae!!!

  • holy cow.....i have heard lee dewyze. thought he was AMAZING!! i haven't watched american idol this year so i thought i would check out lee's competition and HOLY cow!!!! she is FANTASTIC! i LOVE her!! i dunno who is gonna win now cuz they are both unbelievable!

  • Crystal is an amazing talent and we're able to get into her soul when she performs...she allows us to connect with that part of her when when she's on the stage. This is the key which seperates good, from "greatness", this is no accident, it is a God given ability each of us has but we struugle to be able to find this connection within ourselves...Crystal connects naturally

  • Never thought this song could be covered by anyone and do it justice... this is the best ever. Vote Mamsox!

  • Oh wow. I Heard thebeatles version and thought it was so original. Ive heard literally BILLIONS of covers. Crystals is the most amazing Rock-like version I've heard

    GO MAMA SOX!!!!!

  • This woman is good to be around a long time.

  • Go Crystal some real music for a change. I am so sick of the little boy bands and Kris Allen, David Cook types! There are so many of those on the radio now. Lets do something different for a change!

  • @jadezxy shut up dude!!!!!

  • @jadezxy i dont mind kris allen and david cook, they are AI winners too ;)

  • @jadezxy I....A-G-R-E-E-!-!-!, 10,000%!!!! I just discovered this girl after seeing (not not singing) her on Chelsy Lately. Amazing. I hope to see/hear much more of her. I also hope she has a phenomenally successful & ridiculously lucrative & long lasting career. She deserves it, considering she started out playing for tips & change by singing/playing guitar on city street corners. BTW, I wish Beonce would do an album of all classic R&B standards.

  • My NEW Favorite Version of this awesome song!

  • Crystal can sing anything. Pop music is the easiest and left to amateurs. Thats why she's not singing these stupid la la melody songs. She's a TRUE MUSICIAN AND ARTIST, goes for the challenge and after lyrics in song choices.

  • She's genius!!! I think she's going to bring real music back to the airwaves. I just know it!!!! She's going to be the best thing out of this decade!

  • She is the best ever on American Idol. I might by her album when she makes one.

  • If this girl wins it's just going to be another Taylor Hicks failure.

  • @mistydot what a stupid statement

  • @serranobtw

    You made me lol.

    ;)

  • @serranobtw

    I also forgot to add: Thanks for noticing it was a statement rather than my opinion - because that's what it is. Fact. So I thank you.

    =)

  • Girls got rhythm!!! YEAH! I will buy her album!

  • i love her arrangement of it.

  • @ohelloeveryone You know, it doesn't matter if someone can't hold or note or is pitchy (not saying I agree), what matters is if the voice and the delivery resonates with people. There are people with perfect voices who are never going to be recording artists.

  • shes not even that good of a singer...

  • @ohelloeveryone ...ur kidding right?

  • @bonniegracex3 um no... shes pitchy all the time. and cant hold a note.

  • @ohelloeveryone are u fuckin deaf? LOL

  • @ohelloeveryone you need a pitch fork

  • @ohelloeveryone

    She's better than everyone else on American Idol.. and you.

  • @Tenten32321 hahahah no way

    lee is definitly the best singer, then casey.

  • @ohelloeveryone

    Crystal is better than Casey. Lee is better than Casey. Lee and Crystal are going to be in the top two ;)

  • it gives me chills its so good

  • she's a star! =)

  • I hope when she does make a CD that she keeps it clean

  • forget signing her up for a CD......give her her own TV show. She is smart, funny and has a great, witty personality. Like the Cher and the Dean Martin shows of the old days, this girl can entertain us in so many levels. But don't ever stop singing to us-you're the new Elvis!

  • Lindaaaaaaaaaa, and I love her =)

  • Love love love LOVE Crystal! I SO wanna see her in the finale and WIN!!! :D

  • Impressive,one of the best Idol voices..ever

  • When I watch her, I get so consumed like I'm actually there at her concert. She's so raw and... real. I want either her or Lee to win.

  • i wanted a crystal and katie finale. im putting all my hope in crystal now!

  • raw talent

  • This girl has all the talent and performance skills one can have. Not to mention the likability factor.

  • Crystal and Lee are my favourites. I want Crystal to win and Lee to come second, although I have no faith that it'll work out like that, it never does :(

  • She's the best this year. Go Crystal.

  • I love the studio version but the live version on idol I think is better. Just an opinion. She don't need any studio affects put to her voice to make it sound better cuz it already sounds phenomenal!!!!

  • I love siobhan but overall i gotta say i'm with crystal....she may not have pipes like siobhan bt she is consistent and i feel her connection that siobhan (i am very sad to say) does not really have..

  • i heard a nice version of come together by snoozebox from the phil its very nice with a cool twist guysl ; )

  • What really is confusing is Kara herself. She will often say to the contestants that they need to have "artistry" and then when the "artistry" she is talking about has been established by the contestant, she will say that it is not good enough and they need to explore a little bit about their character. And the contestants getting out of their comfort zone will then be criticized by Kara saying that she's confused because she can't see the personality a contestant possess. O.o

  • @okazakifragments1 You actually hear what she says? WOW! I just put it in mute and then laugh to the faces she makes while she talks. *bangs arms in table and say something in a stereotypical black woman accent* (ok I heard this time but that was it I swear).

  • CRYSTAL ROCKS. she truly does just kill every song. she makes you actually feel the music.

  • Fantastic arrangement. I actually like this better than the original and I was raised on the original. lol. She's just awesome.

  • amazing

  • I love the way Crystal takes these old songs, puts her own unique spin on them, and they come out sounding better than the original artist. I find her singing addictive, and i'm hooked. She definitely ain't no karaoke singer. this girl is for real!!!

  • @foxrat123 Nonono please dont say "Come out sounding better than the original" with ANY cover of the beatles. =P But yes, Its very good, girls got insane amounts of talent. Right on mama

  • @foxrat123 "better than the original"? you must be joking. Come Together is the most amazing beatles song: the cool, suave vocals and the simple guitar that blurs the line between blues and rock, and how the attitude of the singer changes throughout the song. This version is more elaborate, I´ll give you that, but then again the original was recorded 40 years ago, so this one is a good cover at best.

  • This girl is the American Ideal 2010.

  • this is SO good.

  • Her, Casey & Lee ftw! I hope all three make albums, id buy them all! Such amazing voices this season

  • I was reading about the what people think this song means just a few days ago..this girl just belts it out..awesome

  • Her voice is so raw, yet at the same time, so velvety smooth. Simply put, I want her to win.

  • when she sings, i really want to lay back and burn some ganja..her voice is smoothing.

  • she's a one take singer, gets it right the first time. knows who she is. her vocal is impeccable like holy! music is definitely what she was born to do.

  • She has talent with very few gimmicks. This allows you to focus on her voice and her personality rather than on theatrics or overly done props to get your attention. While the others are talented in their own way, Crystal will probably end up being the next American Idol due to her originality and strong vocals.

  • Kris is better of this!!!!

  • I want to bang the digity dooo!

  • It's just me or last years studio versions sounded much better?

  • @SugarGliderGirl Is it just me or did last years contestants sound much better?

  • @codyzulinski it's just you.....

  • @hawenoni Are you on crack? Nobody this season except for Crystal and Siobhan has any talent whatsoever. Everyone in the top 12 last season was more talented than anyone (besides those 3) in the top 24 this year.

  • i thinks crystal will be the next american idol.she is so good

  • I love her!! When I watch the show, I cant wait to see what she is going to sing next, I am really feeling her. Great voice!!!

  • You can always rely on a 'natural woman' to give a solid performance like this ..

    Is she at risk of being samey tho, maybe ... but for now shes a clear fav. only person who can really beat her now .. is casey james .. if he really taps into his innersoul and sing using that force ... he will be unstoppable... i see a bit of taylor hicks soul in casey.. i want to see that ... we all know casey can play the guitar much butter than crystal too.

  • taylor hicks is a mega flop

  • @kamikazeVX Thats true like .. but it was taylor hicks soul which made him win the competition that year ... casey could do the same.

  • I totally love her.

    Don't hate me for saying this but the worst thing can ever happen to her is to win this shitty contest.

    I hope some good producer look at her and records an album when she can be herself... raw and pure.

  • Too great!

  • I agree using the save is a complete waste. In case Crystal voted out before top 5...She will sing her own composition..Just want to love ya'll before i leave..(This will make america cry)..HANG-on there Girl!!!

  • She doesn't just have a voice, she has soul. I'm just waiting for her to win Idol, get signed, and cut an album so I can go buy it. Love to catch a live performance of her some day. She's real. The best talent Idol has ever offered up.

  • @YzYrCmnSns DISLIKE! crystals tight but siobhans goin all the way.

  • YzYrCmnSns @armandahammer Siobhan is a cutie in her own quirky way, and she has some pipes, The chick can belt it out. But she's still missing something that Mama Sox has. You hear Siobhan, but you feel Crystal, and that's the definition of soul. Bowersox penetrates your skin and warms you like the sun on a perfect summer day. You just want to keep laying there soaking it in.

  • @YzYrCmnSns haha...ummmm ya. didnt know this was a poetry contest. Siobhan's voice is butter to my ears, like audible chocolate. I think back to that sweet sunny day when she first tried out for American Idol...I dried out, in that sweet sultry sun, that is, her voice.

  • @armandahammer

    I think she should win.

    Siobhan is by far the best.

  • @armandahammer Ummmm ya, sorry I didn't realize that everyone on YouTube is a little 20 year old kid. I'll try to keep my opinions or descriptions laced with the current, hip slang and colloquialisms so that you can understand. Get back to me after Siobhan gets kicked off.

  • @YzYrCmnSns

    I completely agree. Siobhan can hit the high notes but that's pretty much where it ends. Her voice is very unremarkable other than that. Crystal is consistently good and always sounds awesome. Siobhan also seems to be a little lost and not sure of what to do with herself. Her interpretations of songs always come across boring to me and she doesn't really know how to make a song her own. Crystal definitely does.

  • @YzYrCmnSns AMEN.

  • @YzYrCmnSns Yea thats EXACTLY it. I couldnt figure out how to express it.

  • @YzYrCmnSns until you get sunburnt

  • @armandahammer

    I don't listen to Siobhan & praise Crystal. I listen to Crystal because she is the best. If you like Siobhan, listen to her & post comments on her videos.

  • @gwensokata how bout you do you and ill do me. Siobhans the best.

  • @YzYrCmnSns true that

  • All I can say is she has the voice like an Angel!! I really hope she or Aaron wins!

  • @Njonas21 america doesnt need another little punk to sing songs, im already stressed out hearing about justin bieber or whatever, Bowersox should win.

  • Im SURE shell be in the top 3 along with Siobhan and Lee (";

  • Wise, Beautiful, Real, Passionate, a Mother-love her.

  • oh my gosh she was amazing I''m pretty sure either A.G or her and another but forgot her name its not Katie though i don't like her but yeah them 3 will either win

  • This version gives me chills. Rock on Crystal!

  • where's the download link?

  • boooom crystal

  • pinky2 she will sell CD's to 40 and older. But single songs will sell to the younger on there I-phones

  • Crystal is more about consistency, really. I don't think anyone has the right to question her talent, that's for sure. I wasn't originally into country and gospel, but she showed me, man! This one's going a really long way. And I love her rendition of the song. :)

  • @scarredbanner

    she isnt country or gospel - she is all the way blues

  • @scarredbanner She is hardly a gospel or country singer. She is more of a blues singer.

    In any event, you are right about her consistency. I can't wait to get her album (I can't imagine her not getting at least a record deal out of this.) There isn't a song I've heard from her that I didn't like.

  • I'm her big fan but I wanna see her more without her guitar...

  • I love her voice!! Go Crystal!

  • i like kris allen's version, too

  • Both Crystal AND Carly Smithson sang this song amazingly!!

  • I am glad to see the trend this season to live musicians rather than so much techno sound on recordings last season. Could this be due to the number of singers who play instruments? Just wondering.

  • She should be the winner! Then Siobhan, then Lee, then Casey!! Theyre my 4 favs.

  • she has to be the best singer besides Casey&Siobhan. (:

    CullensMember-aaron isn't that good..sorry. :/

  • I thought that on American Idol you were sopposed to vote for your favorite singer/the best singer... I think that she has a chance of winning American Idol.

  • I surprised she got all the words :D

  • idolopinions3- who do you think will win then? Aaron!??!? He is probably the second best.

  • idolopinions3- who do you think will win then? Aaron!??!? I think so!

  • i think shes great...but would she go main stream if she wins??

  • Have you not been listening to her?  She told Simon last week she had no intention of changing.

  • @cookiefann yes I understand that...she should not change!! i am just concerned about how successful she will be if she makes a record...her genre of music (blues) may not appeal to wide range of people...we shall see!!

  • this was freakin' major...she made the song sexy and smooth idk man i can not put into words how amazin' this woman is...i love love love BSox

  • @altboi21 BSox lol sounds like you don't like her BS=Bull Shit lol... better call her something else before people start thinking that. she is ok, but she will probably finish 4th or 5th.

  • @americanidolz2010HD haha no way do i mean bullshit towards Crystle...Mama Sox thats better...and no she ain't ok she is amazin'...a real woman with real talent...she is what we need in music now she is makin' it top 3 at least

  • @altboi21 Well we'll see how she does. I just think that Lee and Siobhan would have to be in the top 3 for sure and Cassie seems like he can play the dark horse role like Kris did and make it there too.

  • @altboi21 Not saying Mama Sox is a bad singer, just saying America hardly ever gets it right. For example, last year Allison was sent home before Danny after he did that blood-curdling screech and Kris won over Adam, and Adam was, without a doubt, the better singer. And if you think even further back in season 7 Michael Johns and Carly Smithson were sent home way before they should have been.

  • @americanidolz2010HD well when u say that yes then i totally get what ur sayin'...i was so pissed when Carly and Allison went home...and the fact Adam didn't win really got me goin'...so yeah i get what ur sayin'...im so annoyed that they used the save on Michael when they should have saved it for someone like Crystle or Lee

  • @altboi21 Yeah using it on Michael was a complete waste, he is so boring he just does the same thing week after week. If someone like Lee, Crystal, or Siobhan goes home before the top 5 or especially next week in the double elimination, me and the rest of the world will be pissed off.

  • Couldn't agree more about Michael and all. Have you heard Crystal's own songs? Listen to Holy Toledo and Sunflower Sunshine, others. Siobhan is much less consistently good vocally as Crystal. I find Katie boring, tho when whe's not pitchy, her vocal quality is nice. Crystal's coming out of her shyness, is quick, funny, refreshingly but not rudely outspoken, laughs more easily. I think she's the best since Clarkson and Underwood and different for a change.

  • @altboi21 I've always said the format should be that the judges choose between the bottom 2 (up to top 4) who goes home and then one week up to top 4 or 5 they don't have to send anybody home. This would also bring in Idol more votes, so it works for everyone.

  • Great voice & Great song !

  • Outstanding!

  • Why does it matter that Carly and Kris have done this in the past? Crystal did it this year and she's still in the competition.

  • I think she might win Idol this year.

  • @CullensMember No way!! Her hair is just digusting!! She seems so cocky and I dont think America will vote for her near the end because she seems like such a cold bitch! You can tell she is trying really hard to act all playful. I predict a wild horse Katie to win!!!
