  • people is so silly !! shes amazing and before she joined we r the fallen she already had the tattoos and her Gothic style s please dotn say shes trying to b like amy

  • I'm still seeing Carly Smithson videos and seeing comments about Amy Lee and Evanescence. Both bands are similar, but they do have their differences and BOTH bands are completely amazing. I love both bands, and people sort of need to get a grip and realize that they are both amazing.

  • @TakatoJoshuaKai Thank you, you are absolutely perfectly right!

  • @Argentina891 Thank you.

  • Holy. Shit. She can sing! I didn't watch that season, nor do I give a shit who won, it's obvious who the best singer from that season was.

  • At first I thought her accent was British.

    Then I realized that it was Irish.

    Oops.

  • I like her accent its like a mixture of American and Irish

  • I didn't realize how beautiful, talented and sweet she was when she was on the show. She really is a class act with a great voice!

  • HER HAIR IS GODDAMMED BLACK!! STUPID PEOPLE WHO ARE JEALOUS OF HER SUCCESS AND SPEND THEIR TIME HATING COZ THEY KNOW THAT THEY WILL NEVER REACH HER LEVEL..=]

  • HATERS YOU GUYS ARE JUST JEALOUS CAUSE THIS GIRL IS HAVING THE TIME OF HER LIFE.....AND FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD THE ALBUM SOUNDS GREAT ....WE ARE THE FALLEN ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

  • @buratmong69  Amen! :D

  • Thank God she didn't get the first record deal otherwise we wouldn't have We Are The Fallen plus shes probably more known now than any of the other contestants

  • Who wonned it anyway??

  • her hair is brown here lol "we didnt dye her hair black carly cant help herself she is how she is not trying to be amy lee" BULLSHat

  • She is great!

  • ok seriously. i think she is trying to be amy lee abit. she looks so bright and airy here and she has changed!!! she has changed since she went into we are the fallen. as an Evanescence fan... im not taking sides though, i have listened to we are the fallen, but she has changed, and she looks more like amy and is trying to sound more like her aswell. if you cant see it then your a littl bit blind. dont take sides and just look... then youll see.

  • @Lise2802 shes bright and airy cos shes happy! shes in a band and finally geting to live her dream. now stfu & get over it.

  • @omfgyourmomsugly Actually, everyone is entitled to an opinion so you get over my opinion and Stfu!

  • @Lise2802 LOL. yeh so im entitled to MY opinion

  • @omfgyourmomsugly yeah but i wasnt the one being mean about it?!

  • @Lise2802 just giving my opinion!

  • @omfgyourmomsugly yeah well stfu isnt really an opinion but w/e cba to stay on youtube and reply pointlessly anymore.

  • Shes in the kick ass band we are the fallen.

  • where is she today

  • @didilishus trying to be Amy Lee

  • @eacz12

    I would not say she is being amy lee. AT all. She is her own person and own unique voice. AND BESIDES AMY IS OLD AND SHE IS NEW. Not the same music at all. But. still she is her own .

  • @passive112 amy is old and she is new....hmmm nicki minaj is new too and she sucks ass and balls

  • @passive112 well said!

  • @eacz12 lol shes not trying to be amy. we are the fallen isnt evanescence.

  • she'll always be my winner

  • love the excel

  • Im glad she didn't win because she's doing so well now. I mean WATF is doing great. Who knows where she would be if she won?

  • LIFEANDOBLIVION fuck you fucker!Carly is great!Listen to WATF im the only one.AND stop all you fucker put carly in the same jar with Amy.Amy is Amy and Carly is Carly and both are wonderful.so shut up and suck your own cock!

  • Irish Idol

  • What looks like Amy, has a band fill of Evanescene ex bandmembers, what's to be like Amy by dressing gothic.......this wannabe does!!!! She's no Amy Lee and never will be no matter how much they try they can't beat the fact that Amy is the Gothic Queen so gothic that she wears white to announce that she's the Queen. Try to beat that wannabe!!!!

  • she is an angel, sue me if i'm wrong, but she is so truly sweet and honest person, she is so talented. ever since i discovered her she is my favourite singer, my best influence. she is great :)

  • she sucks!!!!

  • The song sounds kinda like Total Eclipse of the Heart.

  • la copia barata de amy lee...maquillaje todo es igual que amy lee...ni en eso pueden ser creativos????

    cheap copy of amy lee ... everything is like makeup amy lee ... or it can be creative?? I'm sorry, but here there is no room for another amy lee, amy lee was able to win the public. end of story, voice talent ... their way of singing ... like her no

  • She has such a beautiful voice! She really should have won, but alas, AI is family oriented so an awesome rocker chick with tats wasn't going to win. But I still cannot get over how much she looks like Amy Lee. Certain angles, a certain way her hair is done, her smile. Ugh, it's so strange. I love WATF but I still cannot get over their look. I'm really glad she decided to stay in a neutral zone about Ev and WATF.

  • @emptywhisper Except she didn't.

  • @PhantoMPhreeK92 I haven't heard anything but good come out of her mouth. Couple interviews I've seen, she keeps her lips closed. But Idk.

  • @emptywhisper There are a couple interviews of her outright denying ever even having heard Ev's music yet shes covered three of their songs. IDC if Ben helped co-write some or not, thats Ev's music. She knows who they are. Listen- I like her as a singer I don't like people who bend the truth. If she'd just say yeah- Im in a band full of ex-ev members, therefore we mat sound alike but were here to make some music end of story. They fight the 'similiarity' thing so hard that they hurt themselves.

  • A mix of Irish/American accents ends up sounding Canadian...

  • @homeede Dont diss her because of Ben. She was offered her job and she took it because it's what she wanted. I used to hate her too until she DM'd me on Twitter. She's really nice and she's said nothing but nice things about Ben's former bandmates. It's not like she did it on purpose... Give her a chance. She's such a wonderful person, so quit hating on her. :)

  • @LacrymosaMay1 Well, I'm with you- but she denied completely in one interveiw sounding like Ev and went on to say that she'd never even heard the music. Yet... I can think of AT LEASt three videos of her singing Ev's music. I just can't stand liars.

  • no she isn't gonna do country she joined forces with the evil Ben Moody and is making a clone of Evanescence!! She is so stupid. I hope she fails at it!

  • now she has a band im proud of her

  • She looks better in black, please don't try 2 yellow her up, ellen!

  • I need to take my headphones everytime I listen to this because there's this muted sound in the background that sounds exactly the same as my telephone :)

  • it's so cool that she has her own band now!!! and she reminds me so much of evanescence, i was shocked!

  • i love carly and her accent!

  • she shouldve won! im still pissed that she didnt!

  • she is SUPERBEAUTIFUL!!! and what a VOICE! both when talking and singing!

  • she is awesome, carly is a nice person and great singer, she shouldn't have been eliminated that early, she did really well that week, she was definitely one of my favorites the top 4 should have been her, brooke, ramiele, and david archuleta with david as the winner, all of them have talent, great voices and are all very nice and unique unlike david cook who is boring, jason castro just plain sucks, both can't sing at all, syesha was ok, but she doesn't compare to archie or my 3 girls.

  • shes awesome - hope We are the fallen does well

  • blah

  • @Lizardbliss

    have you heard the stuff she came up with her new band? its awesome.

  • can u tell me the name of the song she sang? thx!

  • Alone by Heart. A lot of people have covered that song-Celine Dion, Carrie Underwood, etc.

  • can u tell me the name of the song she sang? thx!

  • she kind of sound like a man at some point when she sings.

  • She is so talented and her eyes are beautiful!

  • I still can't believe Carly didn't win

  • @7bracelets she did.. look at her new band WE Are the Fallen .. their single "bury me alive" is sooo great! check them out at wearethefallendotcom

  • is it just me or does her voice

    sound like celine dion's?

  • Was Carly pregnant right before she got voted off... Or rather not voted for?

  • Carly is not replacing Amy Lee. She's the lead singer of the new band The Fallen which has a former member of Evanescence, Ben Moody and a couple others. Amy and the band are still together and Amy said that she was working on new music for 2010.

  • Apparently you did not read Amy's blog. Carly is not replacing Amy. The Fallen is a different band that has former members of Evanescence in it. There are still two members of Evanescence with Amy and they're making new music. I've looked into this already. We will have both bands, end of story.

  • Amy has a blog?

  • Yeah, on myspace, lol

  • The members of Evanescence who are in (We Are) The Fallen are FORMER members. Ben Moody left in '03, John and Rocky shortly following. That being said, The Fallen will have absolutely no impact on the current Evanescence line-up. Keep in mind that Marty O'Brien, who is in no way connected to Evanescence, is ALSO joining, again differentiating between the two bands.

    Having been a huge fan of Evanescence from the beginning, I'm thrilled that Ben and the others are resurfacing. :)

  • Oh my God, please inform yourself before saying so many stupid things!!!

  • carly isn't replacing amy. she's starting a new band with former evanescence members

  • then get the fuck out of here. no one cares about your trash talk

  • you're an asshole

  • carly´s band names "we are the fallen" not "the fallen"...

  • The name The Fallen was already owned so they had to go with the (We Are) tacked on there. As long as Carly's singing though they could call the band whatever they want.

  • It actually has 3 former members

  • I'm wanting some Carly Smithson music....NOW!

  • i love you carly and love ... love your voice .. cant wait to your new album .. it's all good !!!!

  • Carly we need your voice on the raido! Someone that can sing!

  • I would so do her lol

  • Carly is currently in the studio recording her album. You can follow her on Twitter for all the latest updates on her music. Her album is gonna be amazing-can't wait for it!!!

  • Where is Carly now? I want to hear her sing!

  • Love Carly! What a down-to-earth sweetheart!! :) x

  • such a shock to see her eliminated..

    amazing talent! you go girl!!

    cant wait for your album!

  • Carly is a singular talent, I look forward to her future output and miss seeing her on Idol to this day, especially with the limited talent that this season seems to possess.

  • How can you call someone that when you don't even know them? I met her more than once on the tour and she's very sweet and down to earth. She's definitely not creepy. Carly is amazing!!!

  • pkncharlie, keep your dumbass comments to yourself.

  • i am writing this just so you can see all the bad-comment notifications you got.

    pretty scene right?!!!!!

  • this is an example of pure talent

  • She is a phenomenal singer i hope a cd comes out soon! oh and i lover her outfit : )

  • I used to teach her guitar for a bit when she was a llittle girl - she was already great then. It was so obvious she would do well.

  • ugh she should have won!! love carly!!

  • Carly was my winner

  • Carly is a fantastic singer!

  • Love Carly!!!!

  • Carly was one of, if not the best, singer ever on Idol. I think the odds have anyone else of this caliber on the show are slim.

  • Carly was my fave!!!

  • I love Carly, I wanted her to win

  • i love carly i am so sad she got eliminated at top 6

  • amazing

  • i wanted her to win it :)

  • I hope Ellen will invite Carly back after she releases an album!

  • i love her tat

  • Ellen did a good job on this interview. It is one of the better Carly Smithson interviews that I've seen.

  • shes soooo cute. im still waiting for a new album!!!!!!<3<3<3<3

  • CARLY THE BEST!!!!!!!

  • He did.

    Go watch it.

  • Archie did get on the show eventually. Don't judge! Watch that before you jump to conclusions about Ellen.. There was some complication

  • her voice got better as the show went on... her voice is beautiful and raw and pure at the same time. its beautiful. MY FAVORITE SONG!

  • I hope I get to meet her and some of the others.

  • Ever since I saw Carly Smithson in San Jose at the Idols Live tour I've been going back and watching some of these older videos. She has a fascinating story/history behind her. I have to agree with "critics" who call her a ringer though, I think she was clearly the most talented person on the cast this year. And when I'm say talented I mean strictly on singing ability not the ability to make young girls squeal with delight.

  • couldent have sed it better myself!!!! ^_^

  • haha yes she is incredibly talented but I still squeal with delight!

  • Carlys history is just that i agree she is a total sweet heart too

  • i love hearing my favorite song by someone with such and oustanding voice. plus she's a fellow Irish [:

  • Shes so pretty I hate it :( But I love her! : )

  • she is absolutely gorgeous.

  • carly smithson is abosulely fantastic .

    i cannot wait to meet her and see her on tour .

    her record will be so amazing .

  • amazing voice

  • she was the best and should have won!

  • i love her accent!

  • I loved Carly on the show. I think she's such a great singer and has an awesome personality.

  • Carly seems so at peace with her post Idol self I don't feel so badly about her getting the shaft. Her tour performances, from what I've seen on YouTube, are excellent!

  • I cannot believe she got voted off. That was a good week, and she was amazing the whole way through the competition!

    Mannn that sucks.

  • Amazing she should have won she is just amazing. Can't wait till i get to see her on tour.

  • ugh why didnt she win?!??!?!?!?!?!?!

    i miss getting to watch her on tv (idol should start eliminating by ones at the top 20)

    i hope amazing things for her she's seriously one of the best voices ive heard in my life

  • i think that she had one of the best voices in that competition. and shes soooo pretty!

  • I loved her on idol and I would love to meet her on the tour in sept.

  • I MISS U CARLY!!!

  • Her voice is amazing!

  • I love ellen she is the best OH and Carl was in my top two

  • Shes just amazing..

    I god she has a sexy accent..

    I love her..

    I was so po'd when she was voted off..

    Jason and Brooke needed to go a while ago..

    shoulda came down to Carly and D. Cook

  • Carly is so charming and talented that watching her for eight minutes just flashes by like that [snaps fingers]. This gal really sings the crap out of those Heart covers. What a VOICE!

  • Wow! She is amazing. I was so shocked when she got voted off so early! She was my favorite girl. Her voice is just piercing and she is just so sweet.

  • i so love carly! from the very first episode of the top 12, i had the feeling that the davids and carly will be the top 3. carly should have been 3rd at the very very least. i would've loved to see david cook and carly in the finale.

    by the way, carly's and michel johns' duet, the letter, was awesome! i hope carly lands a record deal, and i'll be one of the first ones to grab a copy!!!

  • From the very beginning, my favorites were (1)Carly, (2)Michael, (3)The Davids... I really think Carly should have won and I only think people stopped voting her is because of the whole "she's already had a record deal and it failed".. So what!? She's much better now and she definitely should have won!

    My favorite performance, by far, was the first Beetles round where she sang Come Together!!! I loved it!

  • I just *love* her. What a talent!!!! I was really impressed with her interview too. She's got a good head on her shoulders and good perspective of the business. Go Carly!

  • should have been in the top 4 she was way better than Brooke n Jason put together

  • She should of won.

  • And where did you read that MamaMia5150 on Vote for the Worst? I didn't hear her claim that she never had met Mariah before, if in fact she had as you claim, or that she said she was new to performing, either.

    I don't mind foolish people making foolish statements, in fact, it seems like these Youtube Text Comments are sort of a place for the fans of the less talented to vent their spleens. It seems like a lot of Jason fans are on the getting very hostile.

  • holy god what a voice! i dont care if she did a record or ten, this girl deserves a second chance at a record deal.

    go Carly!

  • Didn't Ramielle sing this??

    THey usually sing stuf that THEY sang..

    oh wellz... no biggie

  • Carly sang Alone in the Hollywood round of American Idol this year and Ramiele sang it during the finals. So the answer to the question below is that both of them sang it. Both Carly's and Ramiele's Idol performances are up on Youtube.

  • Carly actually sang it during Hollywood week, before Ramielle sang it. But I think they could probably sing whatever they want, and most just choose to sing songs they've recently practiced.

  • luv u carly!!!!!!

  • yaaaay go carly!

    i was soooo sad when she was eliminated from Idol, but she seems to have gotten over it.

    i hope she keeps singing 4 ever!

  • This "Irish girl" needs a record deal, some good songs and some radio support and just watch out. I think the media response to Carly post-Idol has been heartening, they know she is a fantastic singer and so do the Internet bloggers.

  • she sang this better than ramiele

  • She is freakin awesome

  • Carly Smithson, David Cook my top 2.

    Fortunately, David still got it!

  • agreed!

  • LOVE HER, still do. SHe was so gracious when she left. She should've stayed on longer...I wanted either her or David C to win so at least David won lol! BUt I think she shoulda been in the top 3.

  • GIVE IT UP 4 CARLY! I TOTALLY HEART HER!

  • Caly was the best! she is beautiful, sweet, and humble. i loved David Cook 2.

  • she wore this on top 9 result show, it's ramielle's elimination. this when simon's makes a sorry to carly for critizising her wardrobe when she sung here you come again.but she looks gorgeous in black.

  • DAVID COOK ALL THE WAY!

  • carly has the best vocals on the show i really thought the final at least 4 wouldve been carly the two davids and ramiele.
