  • Ok, I love Scotty, but I was reading his song selections for Idol. Every stinking song was country. James at least was versatile and could sing the phone book. This is why Idol stinks now.

  • poor james

    

  • I am so happy that scotty won he deserved it.......

  • Haley deserved it. Scotty should have been eliminated, IMO.

  • They are all great Haley, Scotty, James so just stop discussing so hard I love them all, and the arward is not everything, they will make their name popular by their owns (or not, it depends on them). In addition, they're friends so it's not very nice to say bad things about anyone of them, just listen to what they've brought to us here~

  • James shouldn't have gone home!! Scotty should have been the one to go home because he always sings the same song in the same tone and range EVERY time!! James is amazing and I wish he, or Lauren won.

  • Perfect way to end this nonsense the so called FANS create with these horrendous decisions...Continue to have the ignorant fans vote on these guys....Have the fan vote select the bottom three....THEN (and this is the good part)....have the JUDGES deliberate to see who goes home....Now if the "fans" put three people who don't deserve it (aka Hudson, Fantasia, and London), then they have to make a tough decision...and if they don't want to eliminate any of them, use the save...

  • And another thing, they always told singers to TAKE RISKS....Scotty NEVER took risks....He sang in the same boring monotone voice (however very mature for his age...I'll give him that)...But you guys criticize others who got eliminated and Scotty does similar stuff...He sung the same way ALL the time....His stage presence was non existent...He was off key in spots....AI is a popularity contest that has VERY little to do with SINGING anymore...That's why this show irritates me...

  • Sorry, but HERE is where Scotty should have been eliminated....America screwed up ONCE AGAIN....

  • 0:25: The pride of Rossville, Georgia!

    Me: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

  • I Cried When Scotty Was Against James! I Didnt Want Scotty To Go H0me!!

  • I'm

    Soooo Happy Scotty Made It & James Got Eliminated ! James Did Have A Good Voice But Scotty Was A Lil Bit Better!!

  • @LuvScottyMccreery Scotty had ONE tone....NO RANGE....He's a very good country singer, but he showed NO versatility....EVERY other country singer (aka Carrie Underwood, Kellie Pickler) showed versatility singing other genres.....People were saying about Pia..all she does is sing ballads...well, all Scotty did was sing country...nothing really exciting in hardly any of his performances

  • why did haley go thru !?

    james deserved it

  • why the f*** is this backwards

  • I was so scared that scotty was going home i was like mamaw hes going home i was crying

  • So Sad Hunter Fractured his Leg Recently 

  • Omft You can Hear Everyone Go Crazy When Ryan Says James Why The FUCK Did He Not Make it Too The Top 2 OMFT im So Frikin Pissed So Mad That At Walmart iGrabbed all The James Durbin CD's and Covered the Scotty One's and Well iHid Almost all The Scotty One's and Placed The James One's Over all The Other Because iRock Like That

  • James acts like he knows hes going....love scotty's spirit bout others winning

  • i thought haley should have went, but i am happy lauren was the first won in

  • Steven tyler was rite....somethis IS wrong with the world today.....

  • @superguggs1 Amen too That

  • Scottys not that good. At The Thanksgiving parade IHeard Him A he was lip singing. James Deserved To Win Not Scotty.

  • F**K HALEY she suck

    I LOVE YU JAMES!!

  • @Guyanese4Lyf2010 James Was the Best Better Than Eveyone Else Well Casey Was Good Too but Still

  • Ok...i screamed wen haley stayed my face red in anger n then my face was red cuz james went home..it wuz red cuz i wuz crying! The james durbin legend still grows!!!

  • @awesometastical188 Uhh, iWas So Mad Because Scotty Stayed Haley is Better Than Scotty and That Saying Something

  • @kicktrickz1 i was expressing my opionion

  • @awesometastical188 Okayy and iAgree That James is Amazing and iLove Him

  • You could tell James didn't like Haley much throughout this whole season - which sucks

  • haley didnt deserve to be there she sucks

  • @matts1115 agreed, she's an overrated bitch

  • By the way I hate most country music, the kind Scotty sings. I like Carrie Underwood though

  • I am pissed still. I like Scotty, but he is not the best. Either James, Jacob, or Pia should have won, but unfortunately we live in a homophobic and bias society. Wake up; it is 2012. I don't care what some damn book written by man says

  • This is my opnion, and it's negative to Scotty, just a fair warning, but I don't really think Scotty has that much talent, but I haven't heard any of his new music because I'm not a big fan of country, I just think he didn't try to push himself as the others did. I'm not trying to say he's a bad singer but I think Lauren should've won instead of him, or Haley. I just wanted someone who took more risks to win.

  • It is absolutely insane that he lost to those kids, just goes to show that the majority of the US knows nothing about musical talent. This is also the reason why talentless "artists" are currently topping the charts.

  • i love scotty thank god he won idol

  • i am SOOO happy that James was still able to make his own album <3

  • I sure didn't like the way the judges looked when Scotty was saved - they were so much for James - but Scotty showed everyone - his CD is almost platinum

  • @mchcatsa It got awful reviews.

  • Hey why didn't Scotty come out with a song like Jordan Sparks & Chris Brown's "No air" like what da heck? I wanna here some more music from Scotty!

  • sorry at 6:33

  • @jakekingtiger sorry for what?

  • sorry at 6:33

  • sorry at 6:33

  • why was haley looking at her nails at 1:33

  • why was haley looking at her nails at 1:33

  • haleyyyy :)

  • That top was so working for Haley...

  • He is my idol still. He rocks i listen to him pretty much everyday!

  • still pissed james didn't make top 3!!

  • you could see the whole time that James knew he was going home after the girls were saved

  • i hate james got voted off

  • @soccersj93 ur a bitch scotty won because he has good talent u probley can't even sing worth a damn he would probley blow u off the stage nd laurenas well!!!! -:(

  • His best preformance.

  • and that's why we dont have good singers anymore

  • Scotty really was the best - consider 1 gold song and a gold CD - almost 800,000 sold in 10 weeks, 2 top 25 songs, best new artist and on and on

  • @mchcatsa Teenagers probably bought them

  • It should've been James, Lauren & Scotty in the top 3.

  • Haley obviously made it into the top 3 because she won the votes of the rich DIVAs just like her. James, Scotty & Lauren have their own musical talents, performed different type of songs and rocked it. Is Haley is better than James, Pia, Casey ? Obviously not in a million years. Thank god the diva isn't the one that is representing America.

  • @RinaaRenny

    Rich diva? Haley's parents are working musicians that own a small, older home (Scotty's home was new & 3x as big). Haley attended a local community college because they could not afford to send her to Columbia. No one proved to be a more versatile performer than Haley. She outshines her talented friend Casey on every duet, is more entertaining than Pia, & more technically proficient than James.

    She rose from the bottom to the top based on talent and drive (very American)

  • @LookingAtYouFool lol there is no way ima sit here an watch u spit out some garbage sayin those three deserved to be there over james halyey only rised up so much cause nobody was voting her out this was clearlly a country vicctory since only country was left. Nobody willl ever top james voice for awhile u have no idea the skill it takes to do what he did u can even see the judges dissapointment.James did alot more then haley an was more entertaining.

  • @al526games

    James is a nice guy with a good voice who is a crowd-pleaser but he is inconsistent vocally. The judges never called him out on it and frequently criticized Haley's song choices which painted her as inconsistent in the eyes of many viewers. The truth is she was the most consistent and versatile performer vocally. That's why you'll be able to catch her performing "Wild Horses" with Slash and Myles Kennedy on ABC in a few hours ("Ali 70th from Las Vegas")

  • @LookingAtYouFool Alll of this is just matter of opinion but as u said her song choice made her look inconsistent so regardlesss she shoulda got eliminated.

  • @LookingAtYouFool MOST CONSISTENT???HALEY???? Are you kidding me?? You obviously started watching AI last season at about when there was 5-6 left...The first 3-4 weeks after it was down to 11-12 Haley was AWFUL.....She DID get better, but was NOT the most consistent...

  • @dreman1970

    I listen to what I hear and not what Randy Jackson says. He called this karaoke /watch?v=-d9gURgwllM yet praised Kendra Chantelle's weaker performance of it . He called Haley's "Blue" sleepy yet Lee Ann Rimes tweeted she heard great things about it. The forgotten "I'm Your Baby Tonight" has 103 likes to 2 dislikes. There was nothing wrong with Haley's 'You've Really Got a Hold on Me" other than people focused on her decision to wear shorts instead of her performance.

  • @LookingAtYouFool i doubt it the judges hav no reason to lie to durben on tv its obvious u a huge haley fan. Which is alright shes great but in terms of talent durben had more potential to work with also he was an alll around better performer in my opinion being active with the crowd. pia an his voicee surpassed her by far though an there wasnt anythhing wrong with pias voice everyone thought she was gonna win.

  • @al526games

    I'll let the future speak for the present.

  • @LookingAtYouFool  lol as will i my freind

  • James Durbin - Memories of a Beautiful Disaster kicks ASS!!!

  • LOL Ryan Seacrest's voice

  • My favorites this season were Haley, James, and Casey. They should have been THE top three. Lauren and Scotty are obviously talented, but in my opinion are not risk takers like these three, and are in no way as musically talented and diverse.

  • James!!!The Idol is a history.The real show begins now with his new album:)

  • durbin -- "god i did so much stuff that never been done on the show before"

    oh really?? ur so funny... who do u think u are?? ur nothing compared to other contestant before..

  • @060991gemini uhm... he did some damn original crap. singing a muse song for america with a mini marching band? he brought rock (GOOD rock) to american idol. he or pia should have won. those rednecks in the final shouldnt have even sniffed the top 12.

  • America likes Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift, the good days of music are behind us.

  • @Salos2217 and @Gagafan26 LOL you two are funny. What the hell are you doing on this page if you're not JD fans? And as for insulting his vocal qualities, that's just bs. He IS in tune because if he wasn't, you would have CLEARLY heard him off pitch dumbass. But then again, you're probably musically uneducated so you wouldn't have known that or how to listen for it.

  • @DC11961

    Im watching haley become safe and watch her beat james :) mwahaha

  • How did I @myself? Anyways, that was for @Halabrdave. And @gagafan26, she was better than James. At least Haley was mostly on key. James=ugh.

  • ALSO may i add.. look at randy and JLO'S face when they said haley was safe.. PISSED OFF!

  • let me say something.. out of all the top 5 idols.. their recording songs from their idol song haley is leading the itunes dowload.. show's who shulda won.. imma haley fan 100%

    haley's better than james, looks at the views on youtube

    her video baby its cold outside was out for 2 days get's 13k views. INSANE! so haley.. my dear friend.. u deserved that spot :)

  • It was a good thing he was eliminated, now he won't be on that heart-wrenching Idol contract. I can't wait for his album on November 21st, it's going to do so much better than Scotty's album -.-

  • is it just me or is haley wearing alotttt of make up ?

  • James was the best by far.... I can not wait until Monday and all of us James fans get to hear his cd. I do not think putting other peoples favorites down is a good thing so I will not do that. I love and adore James so much. He showed that us aspies can still kick butt lol. JAMES DURBIN ROCKS!!!!!

  • Well, Haley with "I Who Have Nothing" got yet another standing ovation, best performance of the year. Watch the video with 1.8 million views and 14k comments. Yet still the retarded people dare to say she shouldn't have made it that far. She is the best Idol ever, people can't even understand her talent so they have to hate her because of their lack of musical knowledge. STFU and she wears shorts because she rocks them, hot, best singer, best performer. Who wouldn't hate her? she is exquisite

  • @halabrdave HAHAHAHA. Haley "best Idol ever". hahahaha

  • @Salos2217 of course, the almighty electro-pop crap Adam Lambert is the best idol ever. Isn't he? hahaha

  • @Salos2217 First of all, YES. Adam is head and shoulders and waist better vocalist than Haley. Adam is hailed as one of the best vocalists in GENERATIONS...

    Second of all, there are a TON of former Idols that are better singers than Haley. We'll start with: pretty much ALL of season 8. Definitely the top 4. Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, David Archuleta, David Cook, etc etc. Haley is spunky, and has some charisma...but FAR from the best performer, let alone "SINGER" ever on Idol.

  • @Salos2217

    I honestly think haley is better than adam.. her music is more REAL

    and i was a HUGE fan on carrie.. ive been to their concerts.. haley is better... her voice is different and uniqe

  • I wanted James to win tooooo!

  • Those others sucked. Just shows you that the home voting veiwers are tone deaf morons who don't know good singing when they hear it. He sould have won for sure. The judges should be able to make an executive decision over the home voters.

  • @Vidiwell100

    Check out the CBS Radio site Streedate Radio (search G for those terms) for new performances by James shot live. Since you're not a tone deaf moron, you'll like the one called, "Screaming" (it's about bullying).

  • @LookingAtYouFool hey ty for sharing the site. James is amazing and it is cool that other people love him as much as I do

  • give me a reason why james should be eliminated???? 

  • @the9090ify Becuase Laurens Better?

  • Comment removed

  • even though, i'm not intrested in him, but i seriously felt like crying!! SO glad that his "woman of his dreams" noticed him, and always loved him no matter what goes on with him. Heidi is such a sweet person to James!!

  • stupid american

  • I cried and cried and cried....for days. I was speechless.

  • James should have won

  • I was mad at how Scotty won. I mean yes it's time we need a new country singer. But he sang country EVERY week. He didn't have a variety like the others.

  • Steven Tyler looks pissed.

  • it's the same thing that happened with Chris Daughtry

  • I was shocked and very upset when both Pia and James were eliminated. The only reason Scotty won was because he looks good. Vote for the talented people, not on how they look. Also, Scotty did country music every week, you have to be diverse to be a recording artist. This issue is the same with Justin Bieber.

  • What's with the backswards letters?

    poor James....I loved him! He was so good!

  • i m an Asian and i think this guy should have won. Haley and that winner, who is a country singer (are you serious bro?) arent even in this man's league. There's a reason why the entire world says "AMERICAN IDIOTS".

  • Watching this still makes me cry as much as I did the night this aired. However, I'm glad to know that he is doing great in his career now, so in a way it's actually kinda good that he didn't win. I can't wait to buy M.O.A.B.D.! GO JAMES!!!

  • @MissRyry567 shows like this the winner never does well. Kris allen has only on cd but still tours. Lee just got dropped and scotty will do good bc hes country but he wants to go to college point is u never hear about the winner so its better not to win lol

  • i cried 4 a week

  • GO HALEY!!

  • i think scotty is better for win this competition..

    Not like james????

  • Haley's shorts probably helped her

  • @OrangeMango30 Fuck you her voice was orgasmic.

  • @OrangeMango30

    Haley's shorts didn't help her as much as the coverage of James' back story helped him. Especially considering the power of the teen girl vote in the Idol outcome. No, what helped Haley was her superior vocal control and willingness to take risks.

  • @LookingAtYouFool no, it was the shorts james is better hes back sotry is tough and its sad her shorts are for sluts and bimbos

  • @theNbomb1

    The shorts are the reason you and other women hate her. They are not the reason her videos continue to rack up views months later. Here's a new one posted two months ago that has over 60,000 views: v=dvouGjJAEL4 Notice, no shorts. Notice it's so dark you can hardly even see her. Idol made it easier for you to hate on her by never humanizing her with a back story of her own.

  • @LookingAtYouFool If making a piano catch fire and singing an octave higher than the real song doesn't fill the criterias, I don't know what does. 

  • @careypricefan11 which song was that... I can't find it.

  • @ghostKurt "Saturday night's alright for fighting" and "Uprising"

  • Man, America's stupid... Gotta love Casey in front bowing and then hugging James... Those two had to win.

  • sadeest moment ever on ai i mean james should have won that just sucked

    

  • Fuck American Idol man, this was absolutely heartbreaking to watch. look at the fucking judges the entire time, they were so disappointed.

    I wish I could talk to James and tell him how much talent the man has. This is to show the UNIVERSALITY and absolutely HORRID, taste that America has. It doesn't matter what the FUCK your genre is but James Durbin has the most talent out of ALL of them. I hope he goes on to record because he'll last so much longer than these plastic, fake, one hit wonders.

  • …Shocking? Haley should've won, and the fact that she was beat my two country teens was "shocking".

  • @andypantz7007

    Wait... Wait.. Wait... You REALLY think Haley should have won over the two people over her and all the other finalists? Even James, Jacob, and Pia? REALLY?

  • @NateTahGreat Pia was way overrated, James was a straight poor man's Adam Lambert, and Jacob was good, but one dimensional and not marketable.

  • @NateTahGreat

    Yes i think haley should have won this whole entire thing... im with them!! :)

  • 2:48 the judges look like they don't like the choice the country made

  • Most awesome idol exit i have ever seen 

  • November 22. put this date in your head. memorize it. cuz this is the date that JAMES DURBIN'S MEMORIES OF A BEAUTIFUL DISASTER COMES OUT!! THUMBS UP IF YOU CANT WAIT!

  • ahhahahah I celebrated so hard this night... i went to chilis and spent money on food that I didn't have!

  • It's not over for James Durbin, he has an album coming out in November, it's called "Memories of A Beautiful Disaster". Look out for that everyone!

  • look at Randy at 2:49 and 2:54 he is raging inside like all of america was that wasnt the south

  • top 2 should of been lauren and james with james winning.

  • the Final 2 should have been James and Scotty ......

  • It didn't end for Durbin tho. Did y'all read Revolver Mag. ??

  • @psychopathypenguin1 no what did it say?

  • the top 3 should have been james< scotty, and lauren!!!!! haley should have never even made it this far ! i was pissed james is myy favorite he should have one flat out !

  • i was so freaking mad at 0:20

  • Lauren deserved top 3 that night, derserved to be in the finale and deserved to win! She was one of the best the night before this elimination! she blew Martina McBride's Anyway out of the ball park! SHE KILLED IT!

  • can u ppl shut up already on who should have won and who shouldnt!! my favorite didnt win either and u dont see me cryin! Makin it to the top 4 out of millions! thats pretty fucken awesome! they are alll winners!!

  • @xHcivic00x I gotta agree with you man top 4 out of millions is very awesome indeed.

  • GO HALEY!!!

  • FUCK SCOTTY!!!! JAMES IS THE REAL WINNER HE CAN SING AND HAS TALENT SCOTTY JUST HAS A DEEP VOICE FROM SUCKING DICK ALL THE TIME SO JAMES YOUR ARE THE REAL WINNER NOT SCOTTY!!!

  • @RIPTOTHEJOSH04 Way to make us Durbinators look like assholes. I am a hardcore Durbinator and was upset over James being eliminated, but you don't see me taking it out on another contestant who did nothing wrong. You're Scotty-Bashing reflects upon James and it makes him and his fanbase look bad. James is more talented, but Scotty is talented too and doesn't deserve to be bashed on by selfish fans like you. -_-

  • thats bull shit

  • 1:47 awhh look at lauren yell HALEY!! :) haley shulda won!!

  • James is awesome! It was so obvious that the judges didn't want him to go. Come on America. GIVE METAL A CHANCE FOR JAMES!!!!!!!

  • Dont take it out on the dislike bar faggots......go complain to american idol....leave this poor guy`s ratings alone

  • James should have won!!!

  • Two of the greatest idols ever have been eliminated in 4th place: Daughtry and Durbin. Keep on rocking dudes.

  • i still cant believe james lost.. its been months since it happened.. the guy who won.. scotty who?? i live in australia and love him and ive never watched americal idol before.. id buy anything that james sold..

  • I cried and screamed "Just because someone does something COMPLETELY new in this show you vote him off? WELL FUCK YOU AMERICA!!! FUCK YOU!!!"

  • top 3 should been lauren, scotty and james

  • I'm a Durbinator but James sucked Top 5 and Top 4 nights. This was not shocking at all since all the teens vote for Scotty and Lauren.

    The top 3 should've been Haley, James, and either Pia or Casey.

    A Haley/James finale would've been epic! They were both the perfect combination of star power, uniqueness, and the most talent.

  • the top 3 SHOULD have been James Casey and ether paul or scotty

  • You can tell everyone of the idols knows that he should of made it

  • The people that voted this man off how bitter are u.

  • the top 3 should have been James, Pia and Scotty.

  • @tigerwoodsisgod no way, scotty sucks

  • i don't know what i must do click dislike cuz Shocking him ..... or click like for the amazing song ... so i just click both !!!!

  • i cried, so much after this night. james should have won, he wasn't in the bottom three ONCE the whole season.

  • @SkylaBrittBerux James and Scotty should have been the top 2!!!!!

  • scotty has a range and nice harmony!!!sexy voice!!!not liked other artist that MUSIC BECOMING NOISE!!!

  • top 3 should hav been james,casey,and pia FUCK LAUREN AND SCOTTY
