[newnewf1]

6 years later I'm still watching this with delight...

[94952culturepts]

at 1:09 the fox symbol is right on her boob

[CristalcatXP]

ah i miss old american idol..yey carrie :3!!

[cball0864]

thumbs up if your watching this in 2012

[enilson1254]

damn i wish i was one of her cousins..riding on that private jet all over america!!

[foreverandnever123]

Props to the runner-up who actually played like a sport and was happy for Carrie!

[RanFan030189]

i liked her back then not so much now

[jtothetarin]

damn im 18 now & i still remember this night!!!!

[hahahalolkk]

ALL 3 JUDGES WERE ON THERE FEET! <3

[OstrichChick]

I remember I was like in 4th grade when this happened. And I hated Bo Bice so bad. :D

[cowboycasanova93]

Carrie is the best american idol ever!!!!!!!!!! sorry kelly but i lovve you too :)

[fsthiessen]

i got goosebumps, when he said: the winner is?????????? CARRIE UNDERWOOD!!

[keeponmovingalong]

the most successful winner IMO

[sqazsquat]

bo was upset he lost. that's why he went anorexic.

[1996SongBird]

I literally wanted to scream for her! lol, and that was what? 7 years ago? It's so crazy!

[LovingDemetria]

Carrie underwood is and will always be my favorite American Idol. Forever. ♥

[paulbritney]

The Brazil loves Carrie

[75DrummerBoy]

Thumbs up if you will never get tired of watching this????

[Tdiarocks123]

Favorte season by far......

[LayneandJulie]

wow only 62 million voted for obama this year.. and a great percentage of 500 million people voted for carrie underwood... Maybe we should have a game show for president haha

[TheKeriberry]

Whos the guy?

[hannah04051]

1:45 500 MILLION WOW

[purpleytrumpets]

@hannah04051 alot more that people who voted 4 obama

[soccergirly2598]

thumbs up if your watching this in 2011 ;)

[NeverLandIsReal]

@soccergirly2598 Iam:) LOVE carrie underwood:)

[TylerMusicBoi]

I remember the night before, I called in like 50 times for Carrie, and I only got in like 20 votes! lol

[ashleelmb]

Carrie Underwood...one of the most beautiful women on earth...

[dallastars09]

@ashleelmb correction: Thee most beautiful

[75DrummerBoy]

Anybody ever notice how just before he announces Carrie as the winner she closes her eyes for a moment and then looks up. She's such a sweetheart!!!

[AlesiaMichelle]

They said half a million (500,000). Not 500 million...

[guitaronfire76]

@AlesiaMichelle Listen again. 500 Million

[jasmine11k]

@AlesiaMichelle uhh are you retarded he veryyyy clearly said five hundred MILLION votes

[ejhmed]

@AlesiaMichelle they half a billion...

[bballJR1996]

Like if u miss the old idol with randy, paula and simon

[lildeegurrl]

@bballJR1996 Nope I am so happy with the 3 judges now. J-Lo is very compassionate and cares, Steven Tyler is hillarious and a legend and of course it wouldnt be AI without Randy.

[bballJR1996]

@lildeegurrl yeah but simon was legendary.

[fantasmic77]

@FishMoses ...strength. Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, Keke Palmer, Nick Jonas, Taylor Swift, among many others, started their careers at least at the same age as, if not younger than Scotty and Lauren and look how far they've come.

[fantasmic77]

@FishMoses Yes, Lauren and Scotty are younger than Kenny and Carrie...and they are still developing their careers in the music industry, unlike established artists like Kenny Chesney and Carrie Underwood, who have also worked hard to get far. But that, in no way, means that they also can't become greats like Kenny and Carrie. And saying that they're way to young for stardom has absolutely no argumentative...

[BaweeDaBaby]

Lots of people say the runner up is more famous--but I havent exactly heard anything from beardy now have i?

[Sundin456]

Wtf? 500 million votes? Then how come this year with 122million they said it was a record. And the year with Adam Lambert with almost 100 million they said it was a record.

[waikeit94]

@Sundin456 It said for the whole season, not just for the finale

[krazykool1313]

I love Carrie Underwood. I never saw season 4, but i heard one of her songs on the radio and have loved her ever since. Carrie you rock!! :D

[TheMikesterTV]

ATTENTION BREAKING NEWS: EVERYONE WATCH SCOTTY MCCREERY WIN THE 2011 AMERICAN IDOL FINALE LIVE ON MY YOUTUBE PAGE NOW !

[jvsalud]

Perhaps the best Final 2 ever.

[countrycaligirl2325]

kelly is now doing country so.. and i think she is a lot better at country then her pop stuff i have loved carried sence day one and still do and allher songs r amazing

[TheEricShow1]

I think Carrie Underwood is better...It just shows that Kelly sells more because Carrie is in country and the Pop is bigger then County

[MSNking14]

500,000,000 AMAZING....... such a round number

[TWDtv]

I see the country fans have flooded the posts on this one.....Carrie is a great singer, but really, that's it.......She can't write songs well, and she has no charisma, and she is just a one genre person with no true crossover appeal, benefited by any country fan still buying her albums. 

[eugene8414]

@TWDtv ,really?..are you the mother shit of justin beiber?

[Erin11703]

Carrie underwood is so amazing. I never watched season 4, I first heard her on KFDI and it was one of those songs you like instantly. Love her.. Shes so real and sweet and deserves everything she has.

[kemsmom22]

It was actually May 25, 2005

when she won

[pooperscc]

Aweee! She's adorable! I'm glad she won! :) Had me in tears :')

[hisbabyangel89]

[JloverMarie]

i love it :) you deserve to win carrie :)

[auddielovesmusic]

i was literatily shaking even though  i knew she won .... lol <333

[61yenom]

wow 16 people that didnt like this? they must be the ones who didnt get to move on in that season.

[sonicfan23]

This was the first season I watched American Idol. It's crazy this was already 6 seasons ago...

[rehtaeh1234]

This STILL makes me cry!!

I loved her from the beginning!! She is what talent is about.

[TheDanyellebrooke]

@rehtaeh1234 I know me too. I cry everytime. And i was for her from the very begining as well (:

[carriefan0001]

[orion2themax]

Best season of idol ever

[lariandrade2]

Carrie is tallented, have great songs and everything, but I don't like Carrie Underwood because of Ryan Seacrest....just think about it.

[alyssamagz23]

I LOVE YOU CARRIE!!!ur the reason y i made a youtube account!!!i made it just to comment on this vid!!!!!!!!!LUV YA

[xLauren8199x]

[ohanamaggie]

LOOOVEEE Carrie. That's the season I remember the most out of all the American Idol seasons. <333333333333333

And Kelly Clarkson is amazing, too! They're just different styles! :)

[Brookieshell94]

I'm actually proud to call you my cousin Carrie! Soo proud of you! Ha...even though you wont read this! ha...okay...I'll just tell grandma that we miss you back here in Oklahoma. Get you and your Candian back here! lol (:

[TrillLibra93]

She and Jordin Sparks are the only Idols that I cried over...love them!!!

[barngirlXx3]

one of the top voices american idol has given us

[championdance09]

i remember this!! i was sooo happy

[cookiesenyor655]

@pscanyc3 you саn ԝatϲh tv frοm all οver the ԝorld oո your рϲ just by dοԝnlοаdinց ѕome рrogram, іt's ցοt thοսsands οf chаոոels οn іt. just go tο linevid com (put а . bеfore tհe cοm, it ԝοո't lеt me post lіnkѕ for sοmе rеaѕοո) it's а bіt рriϲеy bսt іt'ѕ ϳսst οne time аոd іt wοrks really ԝеll

[wildtaz369]

she is the reason that idol has respect clarkson is good but carrie is amazing

[Warrior735]

@wildtaz369 They're completely different genres, voices, and people! Carrie and Kelly are my two most fave singers, and they both are the best at what they do. You can't compare them.

[butterboots89]

It's funny how more people vote in American Idol than political elections.

[KKCA4]

@butterboots89 considering many fans vote like 10 times each, some a lot more, youre wrong

[markmeetsworld]

Artists like Carrie are few and far between, especially today. She has a beautiful voice AND a beautiful spirit. She never takes her winnings for granted. Great job Carrie and best wishes for the future!

[streetcitylightsx]

She totally deserve it(:

an amazing girl with a huge and sweet voice(:

[butterup1000]

ok i love carrie underwood but 3:22 its halarious

[morticiamelissa]

that must be very amazing, :) good for Carrie :)

[wordnerdsrock]

she is so freaking beautiful inside and out!!!!!

[basketballady78]

the subtitbles r retarded they r barley right

[TheJlz13]

she is just AMAZING!!!!!!

[desdes54321]

i want that card too.

[MooshieV]

@desdes54321 haha me too

[75DrummerBoy]

On that night May 24, 2005 country music changed forever when America gave us the the greatest voice we ever heard from the sweetest most gorgeous girl ever. Carrie Underwood you are the greatest and we love you very much you deserve ever moment of what you've gotten since then!

[TheSloppyJoeians]

@75DrummerBoy

she is not the bes

kelly clarkson adam lambert

[75DrummerBoy]

@TheSloppyJoeians

Kelly Clarkson and Adam Lambert fail to compare vocally and successfully. Carrie's run of hit albums tours, her amazing voice, beauty and 13 soon to be 14 #1 songs are proof of that!!

[xohsnapp]

@75DrummerBoy AMEN

[justrhyno]

@75DrummerBoy That was May 25, 2005*

[Crazy4CountryMusic11]

@75DrummerBoy Yes Thank YOU AMERICA!!!!!

[zoeybaby07]

I'm so glad she won! She deserves it!

[Jessica9577]

carrie underwood is the best singer ever

[BlackFrostFire101]

Who would have thought that country-raised girl would become one of the most iconic and amazing country vocalists of all time?

^^

She deserves every bit of it.

[jbdanielle20]

BEST american idol winner. ever. better than lee. i love lee, but i love carrie more...haha, what if ryan said "carrie underwood!!!....syke!!"

[FullofAwesomeness101]

I love Carrie!!!! She's my second favorite Idol, right behind Kelly Clarkson :)

[7061680]

i think she is the best american idol ever, dont forget chris daughtry, he is good too

[Olivia1carriefan1]

OMG 12 people dont like this video!!! you are stupid then and she is a hole lot better than anybody commenting here

[CrueMilano]

Carrie rocks!

[card23fan12]

That was probably the last year America got it right. Daughtry came, and it went downhill from there.

Oh well, congrats Carrie. Big fan

[zelda5820]

private jet....nice...

[ashieboo1000]

luv her so cool that she made it

[purplebsg18]

i remember watching this with my dad. we both were happy that she won. she seemed so sweet. but now i dont listen to her usic and think she is okay now. she got too skinny and her music is alright. but i guess shes still cool

[8pressure8]

Yay carrie...... Wait did he say private jet

[rytanya26]

Imagine.. Season 9, there wasn't even a mention on how many votes were casted. I guess it was THAT bad... LOL.. Come on.. 500 million?! and Carrie won in a landslide!

[gadyo33]

HAHAHAHAHAH 3:23 HAHAHAHAHA

[msUniverse4lyf]

CARRIE is not skinny!!

she's damnly sexy!!!!!

[casiesilverman]

carrie lost A LOT of weight, she's sooo skinny now. i love her though!

[Usanavy03]

Kelly Clarkson will be remembered in 20 yrs shes at 10 now!

[138riley138]

@mrtigerdude10 looks? yea right! People just voted for Lee cuz he's a great singer, that's why he got on American Idol and made it to the finale and won, cuz he has a great singing voice

[mitchjny]

@138riley138 yep they vote alright but this is a talent show so the talent should be the main criteria here people! yes he does have the voice but does he have the TALENT?

[pinkXprincess14]

Has anyone noticed that in the past few seasons out of the top two people, the worst one won? back in this season the talented people won, and the ones before... why does america vote on looks? the only reason lee won this season is because all of the teenage girlie-whirlies voted for him!! crystal deserved it sooo much more, seriously people, wake up...

[antisadism]

@pinkXprincess14 Ughh well Adam Lambert is definatly hotter than Kris Allen is every way so how do you explain that? Also Lee dewyze isnt hot, hes just average. Hes not like Tim Urban or Arron Kelly, so I dont think teenage girlie-whirlies would vote for a guy who could look like someone's dad.

[riotchick321]

Carrie is so overrated I don't get why you morons like her so much.

[chris4carrie]

@riotchick321 Because she don't talk shit about other people like you do!

[doubleagentands]

@riotchick321 i think that you need to just zip it. carrie is the only one out of this god forsake show that has any talent what so EVER. try watching the seasons again and you'll see what i mean. maybe you be a moron for NOT liking her

[MrTigerdude10]

Is this idol?? can't believe it talent won back then. Now it's looks just looks...

[MrTigerdude10]

Is this idol??? can't believe it talent won back then.. Now it's looks...

[tylerdo038]

WHATTTT ????? Over 500 millions votes ????? WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW

[Darnell1SimmonsLouk]

Hey!! What ever happened to Bo Bice???

[5sheepnzy]

500 million votes !?!? omg

[loghen01]

Why is people arguing over Carrie and Kelly?

Who was the jackass that started that?

They're both equally good!

But Kelly's pop and Carrie's country

Let's get the facts straight:

Voice: BOTH

Carrie has more Grammys, but Kelly sells more

Kelly sells more, but Carrie has more Grammys

Lol, it's stupid but it shows that everyone will have a different opinion, but my point is that a video of Carrie winning AI is not the place to argue about it.

So they both rock and listen to whoever you want

[brianok01]

@loghen01 actually, carrie has sold more albums but kelly has sold more singles. and then carrie has had more awards...

[aberryhill0113]

@loghen01 Here are the American Idol all-time top 6 (album & track sales)+(radio plays) in millions

6. Clay Aiken- 5.6m

5. David Cook- 5.7m

4. Jordin Sparks- 11.4m

3. Chris Daughtry- 17.6m

2. Carrie Underwood- 27.8m

1. Kelly Clarkson- 30.7m

*Calculations are from Billboard

[DJchugsalot]

@loghen01 carrie actually sells more aha simons predicition was right

[evilemnm]

@loghen01 OMG i need to like this more than once

[hannacrystal]

kelly got a many years head starts freeze her for now and in 2 years, carrie would be better than her

[BasicMusicRecords]

Small town girl with big dreams. THAT, my friends, is what dreams are made of! :)

[dramaqueenchris405]

best season<3 i remember biting my pillow. i wanted for her to win soo bad. when he did i screamed. i just saw her in concert in april...she is amazing..im happy i voted. love her

[EpicAmends]

CARRIE IS THE BEST AMERICAN IDOL WINNER EVER. Period. Done. No argument.

[EvFan1985]

@EpicAmends No, that would be Kelly Clarkson.

[EpicAmends]

@EvFan1985 We'll agree to disagree.

[EpicAmends]

@EvFan1985 By the way, since you hate Carrie so much, why are you wasting your time watching and commenting on her win? Why not spend your time watching Kelly vids instead?

[EvFan1985]

@EpicAmends Well, the carrie St@ns have invaded that video, so i thought i'd repay the favour

[DeniseMarieGaskins]

Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are my two favorite American Idol contestants.

[ParamoreVzla]

Don't get me wrong i DO like Carrie. But i found really stupid that you're all saying she's beigger than Kelly. How many Carrie or Kelly songs will people remember 20 years from now?

Kelly: A Moment Like This, Miss Independent, Since U Been Gone, Walk Away, My Life Would Suck Without You... The list goes on and on.

Carrie: Before He Cheats and that's it.

Carrie sings country and the redneck force always buy like a Gazzillion records but her songs are not played on the radio so much

[ParamoreVzla]

Carrie sold 7 million with her 1st album, 3 million with his 2nd and now 1.5 million with his 3rd record, so her next one should sell like 700k and then she will be forgotten. She couldn't even have a Top 10 single with her latest album. Kelly had a #1 album and a #1 song last year. Carrie has country fans and they buy every BS country artists put on stores including Danney Gokey's record. Kelly's the original American Idol, has sold more records worldwide and she WILL be remembered in 20 years

[1bulma1]

@ParamoreVzla carrie is better.............carrie has had a sucessful career since she won.kelly has been down and up .kelly even had to cancel her conserts due to poor ticket sales,carrie has banked more money and is already on the forbes 20 highest paid omen in music

[cvwhite52]

whose the long hair guy?

[arroymi]

@cvwhite52 He is runner-up bo bice american idol season 4 2005.

[Phillybabe26]

@myidolALILARTER I am so happy Tim got booted too. I think it will be one of those 2 or maybe Big Mike. those are my 3 favs so we will wait and see! :D

[951125Mallika]

@myidolALILARTER

yeaa. me too! im totally glad tim went home :) crystal and lee are really goood!!! :)

[951125Mallika]

@myidolALILARTER

i think its fantasia burrino and taylor hicks :)

[rockie2875]

Absolutely right, Carrie has a very long-lasting career.

[outcamehope]

@myidolALILARTER

fantasia barrino

and taylor hicks

[TheAmirHazwan]

She's come a very long way. From a farm girl to 2 times ACM's Entertainer of the Year. Just wow.

[lvu16]

she dserved it

[Phillybabe26]

I'm so happy Carrie Underwood won. I couldnt stand Bo, he really wasnt that good. Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarckson and Jordin Sparks are the most accomplished winners so far! For sure!

[soxfan91293]

@Phillybabe26 bo wasnt that good, maybe you should watch his performances and see how judges thought he was geniuos

[Phillybabe26]

@soxfan91293 well thats your opinon. ok. I have mine. and apparently more people agree with me if she is the person that won American Idol anyway, so, you can't really say that I'm wrong since it's an opinon.
