If you dunno like Adam then get the fuck out of here and stop posting non-sense ,he is incredible - just pay heed to the beauty of the song and only then will you realize its true meaning. I bet that nobody of you can sing as wonderfully as he can :/
WHAT A VOICE AND SO MUCH MORE WWWAAAH GREAT THE BEST I CAN HEAR HIM SINGING OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN JUST CAUSE IT IS JUST SO SO SO PLEASANT AND GREAT!
i¨m from switzerland and i'm working in a cd-shop.we get Adams cd and i didn't knew who Adam was. Just for fun i was looking for him.and he gets me with this song
But consider this. Because he didn't win, he had more opportunities to be himself, and branch out into the styles of music he wanted to do. AI winners tend to get stuck in a rut, having to perform according to their rules. So it's good that Adam didn't win! :D
I am probably the only person in the whole world, ( apparently - LOL ), that didn't know who Adam Lambert is, as I almost never watch network TV & do not keep up with the "pop scene". ( I wandered in here from another video link. ) This is my first time to see him, or hear his music, and I must confess - I am absolutely blown-away by his cover of this song - AMAZING! Very talented!
i dont watch Amer Id and i just learnd of the song recently watch Meth faces on here but this dude KILLED IT!!!! F-ing marvelous!!! Way to go Adam!!! I loved how he mixd it up
well yeah, for American Idol, it's pretty darn amazing.
But I can't get myself to like it, original is so saddening, not really grim, but sentimental and lonely, while this is more cheerful version, guess it's just a matter of taste, ones prefer this version over the original, others quite the opposite.
Still, both versions are good, there's no denying this fact.
@Evanescence69able Upload a video of yourself singing it.....I doubt you'll ever be as good as him..You don't even have a pic of yourself..please get off youtube.
@onysak88 Will do :) I didnt even say i was as good as him.. because im not.. HES AMAZING.... He just sounds like complete shit in THIS SONG (and only this song) haha..
I'm not really into his music. It just isn't my style but this performance was beautiful! He did amazing and I have such a higher respect for him now :)
I LOVE HIM!!!!! Oh my gosh back in American idol for some reason i didn't like him but when i heard if I had you i fell in love and now I'm a huge fan!!!!! Good Job Adam!!!
@natalie1605 yep i agree, i'm 42, been married to my wife for over 20 yrs....we watched several seasons together, that deal pissed me off so bad that i haven't watched another episode, adam got screwed, where is kris? does he sing anything?
Actually it is good he lost. Adam Lambert, being in 2nd, didn't have to take any crappy contract, and still got the popularity. Think, in every American Idol, how often would you hear about the #1 winner after the week it is released?
@GreenDayFtw0 I think Adam said they got the same kind of contract in some interview... I wouldnt be surprise the producers and labels wanna pick both of them up. Adam really want a stand out, but Kris was really talented with what he has too.
@puppylove639 don't be if he had won he would not be able to sing the things he does, they would have made him sing what they wanted him to sing not what he believed or thought, and they didn't want the world to know he was gay, i have never even listened to the winners music i can't even remember his name but i listen to Adam Lamberts music.

Thanks for posting this! Words could not describe my joy when I finally found this clip! :-) One of the best ever performance on AI, and certainly, one of my all-time favourites.
I agree this is the best upload of this song ever hahah. :D Also this...this was plain awesomeness!! lol He has a beautifull voice i have this song on my ipod to and now i want his version cuz omg this was one awesome performance!!
not EVERY runner up and below on AI is better than the winner. just look at carrie underwood and kelly clarkson, they both won and are more successful than any other contestant.
but anyways, adam's amazing. this is one of the best performances i've seen on idol.
I saw the finale last night of season 9 and today find myself looking for Adams vídeos, make me think how good were his interpretations and that season 8 was the best because of him. But for me is a shame he didnt choose better his songs for the cd, hope in the future goes back to his Idol style!
Yknow its been a year and i still can't stand is how ppl actually prefered Kris Allen to this vocal god, performing genius, and absolutely this best without a doubt contestant this show will ever see theonly thing that makes me happy about how he lost is that his career is pwning Kris's pathetic one
What are all the haters doing here ? :(
