  • wut dis nigga stole my name

  • i prefer bo bice's brother

  • I loved Bo. This is an awesome song ..he sang it perfectly.

  • I have never watched American Idol because I never get drunk enough for karaoke let alone would I intentionally watch it on TV. But I wanted to get the joke from the movie The Goods.

  • This is probably the best version next to George Michael and Elton John that I've ever heard of this song. He's the best. I love Bo Bice!

  • he really good but i love carrie !

  • He has the greatest voice i've ever heard:)

  • god i remember how overrated he was back then, now its all about miss carrie =] GO CARRIE! SHE FUCKING DESERVED IT!

  • Great performance! He might not have won but he certainly got to shine on TV in front of millions, which is more than most aspiring star get.

  • One of the few 'real' singers ever to grace the show. Fuck the generic pop sound that has fucked over American pop music.

  • Let's vote Bo Bice on faxo american idol of the month. we have 8 days to go. pls spread the word

  • after he lost, i never watched american idol again

  • @schulzyyy8 Except for when Janis Joplin sang on the stage in 2010? Crystal Bowersox is also the real deal.

  • He's a wanker

  • The only good thing to come out of American idol ever... The fact that he did not win blows my mind. Mabe if he would have auto tuned his voice he would have gotten more votes, fuck you people.

  • its been about 6 years people! carrie won and bo came 2nd GET OVER IT! i liked both of them and would have been happy either way

  • Bo Bice is the gayest fucking name to ever surface out of redneck hell. Fuck you Bo Bice.

  • @MegatonMadMan sounds like your a little jealous..

  • @MegatonMadMan Yeah, you jelly much?!

  • @MegatonMadMan @slashboy346 Yeah, Jelly Much?

  • wow he was good but i still think davids version is the best

  • @taytaygrl22 elton johns was the best but this is still spot on great.

  • I love this guy.

  • stop comparing carrie and bo guys... they're both amazing in their own genre

  • one of my top AI moments/favorites!

  • David's version is the best, but bo bice is very good too =D

  • Bo came to my school today :P

  • @Gunmetal357m For the WoodshopRocks program? You lucky kids!! :P

  • Pia's version > David's Version > Clay's Version > Bo's Version. They were all good, though!

  • ditto on that. I actually like some of Carrie's music but me and my hubby LOVED Bo and were strongly rooting for him. I agree you can't place him in just one area. Carrie was pure country with a "hint of pop". But Bo was just something special to watch and I liked many of his song choices week to week. And of course loved his style.

  • @MichaelGandDavettaS Carrie sang everything!! Bo Bice put Rock 'n Roll in EVERYTHING. Carrie is much better and much more diverse than Bo Bice. And it goes for show she should've won. Have you checked the charts lately?

  • @chriswill2012 OMG, first: a performer don't need to be diverse and that's specially true in rock n roll, because rock don't need to be sold for idiotic people like you. second, EVERYBODY knows that the best artists are not on the charts cause people like you completely ruins this world

  • goosebumps!!!

  • He is every bit as talented as Carrie, but, in my uneducated opionion, he was less "marketable" than CArrie.. Carrie was pure country (not that she can't sing pop too) but, to me, Bo Bice is harder to place in one genre.. That seems harder to market someone like that. I think that's probably why he hasn't done as commercially well as Carrie. I LOVE HIM THOUGH and would prefer to listen to him over Carrie.

  • I keep watching this video since it was first uploades coz this is one of the best versions of this song I´ve ever seen - right next to George Michael's. Bo Bice gives me the chills. EPIC performance.

  • Love Bo.

    It remains funny to me however, how American Idol has the lyrics up in the back :).

  • Bo has 22 concerts lined up around the country, starting this month. New dates keep popping up all the time.

  • I love Bo does any one know if he is going to be in concert?

  • @corporal58 go to bobice.com, and scroll down to Tour Dates :)

  • I like this version.

  • wow some of you people are really stupid.. He lost because he was up against Carrie underwood... A country Superstar well on her way to being a legend... She is 2 million times more succesful than BO so don't ask stupid questions you already know the answer too..

  • dont like him at all

  • He is so awesome. I think him losing, was probably better for him, he already had people that wanted to do a record contract with him before the end of the airing of this show, if he would have won, he would not have been able to do so for 1 year. I think that is how it goes, not 100% on that though. Including Clyde, the guest judge & a big time record producer.

  • its nice because bo doesn't haven't to force a bunch of stupid notes and crap together, he just sings and he sounds beautiful. :)

  • i loved bo! him and carrie were my faves so i was really happy they were the top 2! personally i am glad carrie won but i would have been just as happy if he did

  • He and David Cook were by FAR the 2 best male vocalists ever on the show.

    I haven't watched it since.

  • @buddaman1971 Him and lambert..

  • for sure the best...ever

  • wow Bo knows singing:)

    Bo Bice ill remember that name for sure

  • Why is it so bad and all of that?? He is doing what he likes, singing! He even got an album dropped... He lost the show, but won a lot of scouts attention

  • Check out my new song "4 Days Drinking with a Gun" I just wrote it last week...leave a comment if you'd like

  • Too bad for Bo Bice. In just about any other year, he could have/should have won. I think the only Idols better than him were Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, and Carrie Underwood. If Bo was in any season after Season 4 he would have won easily. It's just too bad he had to be matched against the most successful Idol ever...

  • Comment removed

  • he was just not "cool" enough for todays fcuked up teens,he doesnt do the hip hop thing,so hes not comercial...fu*k their oppinion, he is great amongst great

  • I mean I like Bo and everything I think he is a great singer but I think Clay Aiken sang this song much better. Clay sounded more like Elton. IMHO

  • @ShawBrothersGirl

    The goal isn't to see who can sound the most like the artist, it's to express your vocal Talent. Bo is a rocker, so he has a rock rendition of it. Of course he isn't going to sound like Elton John, seeing as he is more Pop.

  • We I first saw him start this song (when watching live), I was scared to death for him. This is a HUGE song with long hard notes. It's hard to hold those tones for such a long time without "dipping". He NAILED it !!! I had goosebumps.

  • a true rock god.... not a note wrong. just glad we got to hear of him in Australia

  • I just went through the whole season for Bo and this guy did NOT have a bad performance, carrie is good but Bo definatly was the star of AI for season 4.

  • danm this guy can sing! he should've won

  • ANY other year,,,bo would have won!!!!! he is so much better than any of the past winners except carrie!!!! damn i wish this guy was out there for us!!!!

  • I love to remind myself how much I love Bo Bice...he's breathtaking!

  • I prefer Clay's version. Bo and Clay should've won; if they were in others seasons they would. Bo's lost is understandable, after all, Carrie is AMAZING, but Ruben is just NOT and idol

  • Simon's comment is just nonsense. I really really LOVED this permormance, but he's a rocker!

  • bo bice and constantine mouralis split the rocker vote basically. They were both great rockers.

  • @sweetnsour64 constantine was soooo lame

  • it makes sense that carrie won this season, everyone knew from the start she was going to win, but lets talk about this rendition, it is INCREDIBLE!

  • Bo should have won!!! He was robbed!!!!

  • yeah he was robbed! i loved bo he was a badass!

  • It didn't work for Elton John

  • if I could sing like this, I would get more pussy than I would know what to do with....lol

  • Awesome!!!

  • I really wish he would record the whole song on one of his albums. I really love how he sings this song.

  • better than elton john

  • Bo Bice does a great job with this song. He is still performing and puts on a great live show. You should see him in person if you get the chance. Carrie looks great and sings well, and she is a terrific role model for young aspiring singers.

  • I'd rather none of them be there, personally.

  • Elton John's #1 hit at the time of Bo's birth was "Island Girl." Interestingly, the song hit that position the day Bo was born. However, would any of you like to hear Bo doing faux-reggae?

  • only dont let the sun go down on me that is comparable to clay aikens

  • carrie is better,and the decision is right.

  • Carrie is a disgusting addition to the shit stain that is popular culture.

    It's getting pathetic.

    I guess that's what happens when you let teenage girls decide who gets record deals.

  • @bonFreakingJovi Your exact,y right, i love Carrie but...the machine putting out the records behind American Idol sucks ass. Give me some real rock! Real guitar riffs, real bass, ect....blah blah blah

  • BO SHOULD HAVE WON

  • he should have won!!!!!1111

  • Bo definitely gave Carrie a good run for her money..........this season was the last season that the final 4 were OUTSTANDING, and that the final decision could have gone either way.  Bo is excellent, and so is Carrie.

  • Bo is a hotter version of Bob Seger.

  • haha simon looks way young..lol.

  • So remind me how he lost again? the best contestant to ever enter American Idol

  • What are his record sales? What are carrie''s? Nuff Said. Your opinion is that you like him better? fine but the best won.

  • @WendelRicky He lost the exact same way Adam lost. How? I dont know....

  • @WendelRicky sorry...that was Adam Lambert....Bo rocks though.....big time....love of money is one of my favorite clips on youtube.

  • @WendelRicky Simple . Carrie underwood happened. #1 idol ever :).. wish he had been on another season. for sure wouldve won.

  • @WendelRicky It's bc Carrie was more marketable. She was consistently off key and unprofessional the whole season. Simon wanted her to win bc she's pretty and marketable. They CONSTANTLY heaped undeserved praise on her. I was completely STUNNED when she won. Bo got screwed! :*( Bitter much? Yes, six years later, I'm STILL pissed!

  • @WendelRicky he lost because America is stupid and voted for the blonde who doesnt even remember lyrics...

  • @WendelRicky < Quite simply his voice, no matter how awesome, was wasted on the style of music he chose to sing. Carrie knew where her heart was, knew what she wanted to sing and and stayed true to herself and that showed, and continues to show in her music today. Bice's voice is near identical to Travis Tritt and had a real talent for Country but chose to waste himself with outdated, unwanted, 70's style southern rock. Yes, Bice too stayed true to himself but for him that was a mistake.

  • @gnockergnutz Wasted? This song that you obviously listened to... shows that he did not waste his time at all so beautiful just like every song he sang. He is simply the best I have seen. Carrie Underwood was excellent but Bo was just that much better. He was the only person I have ever seen dominate the stage completely for an entire season and not just a single song.

  • i still love the way he whas singing it

  • does he havea cd out?? wanna buy it if so

  • He has 2.

  • his career, as much as i like him, is going down.. sigh..

    i wonder why americans chose carrie over him..but anyway i have to admit his album performance is nowhere as good as his live performances..

  • he has two, the second one (released in 2007) is much better than the first, as the first was bland american idol pop shit.

  • He and Clay have totally different styles. They both do this one fantastic!! :)

  • This is a wonderful performance! I wish he won!!

  • his version or clay aiken's do u prefer?

  • David Archuleta's! lol.

    Honestly, I prefer this guy's version to Aiken's.

    However, he was a bit off at quite a few places.

    I was a Carrie supporter that season. Still, both of them are amazing. Truly amazing.

  • well bo got the voice to say evathang, and clay says a really yuppish/valleyish everything, but heck clay has a something special kind of voice when i heard his version i was equally as moved except when properly pronounced everything LMAO!!! but of course bo puts more soul in it, to BO BICE the greatest idol still not taking over america!!! I still one of your biggest fans!!!

  • He reminds me of Travis Tritt

  • still remember him.....he is good....

  • my favorite contestant ever...he's amazing

  • beautiful

  • One of my favorite contestants to date.

  • He voice is amazing I wish he would have won

  • I m gonna get this guys record his voice is really awesome I never knew to what point

  • GOOSEBUMPS!!!

  • lmao FTW!

  • his version is the best performance among all the idols who sang it

  • Love his voice!

  • He carried the mike stand only to make up for not having his guitar, that's all. He is an amazing singer, and can carry the tune out. One of the best. Carrie Underwood did deserve to win however, as much as I loved Bo

  • Wow! I don't remember him singing this!

  • JUstin top 2

    Clay top 2

    Jasmine top 3

    Bo top 2

    Archie top 2

    They all sang this!

  • ..And jOrge nUnez tOp 36 gRp.3..

  • I was always a HUGE fan of his and still am. He is getting back in the game now, thankfully. He had some major health issues. He is so talented and SO HOT. I wish he would have won honestly.

  • I love Bo Bice!

  • imo it didn't get good until the chorus

  • I really liked Bo but was always annoyed that he carried the mic stand around so much...

  • i dont remember him singing this lol

  • That was pretty gay what Simon said.

    Bo's "Real Thing" song wasn't all that good cause it's not his thing!

    His 2nd album which was a rock album was awesome!

    Bo's better with Rock!  Although he did do good with this song, this was more of Clay Aiken's style. (as well as Elton John)

  • Go Bo

  • Paula looked hotter in earlier american idols...and then she kinda degraded.

  • I'd forgotten how entertaining Bo was on Idol. Listening to him sing makes me happy! Yeah, Bo!

  • i have only heard bo's and david's version of this song but i loved both. i can't say which one is better they are equally brilliant

  • Exceelllllllllllent !!!!!!! always loved ur voice ... Elton ,loves ya !!!!!!!!!!!!\xoxoxoxoxxo

  • better than ARCHIE and CLAY!

  • No... Clay is better.

  • A Gifted Artist. 1 in 200-300+ Million ! Or... A Billion : ) Maybe

  • stop picking on archie. even simon said he sang this song the best

  • I never watched the first three seasons of Idol so I can't say anything about Clay, Justin and Jasmine. Bo and David were both good. You can't compare the two because they are two different people that sing different genres. I thought that both were good. Loved them both.

  • You can easily compare them... they're the same song..

  • Clay and Bo did a fantastic job with "DLTSCDOM", Archie and Jasmine: Abismal!! That is just my opinion!!

  • 1st- Clay ; 2nd- Bo ; 3rd- David ; 4th- Jasmine...

    (my opinion)

  • Hahah what´s up? no one remembers Justin guarini´s rendition of this song, for me the best version is from Clay

  • He sings this too slooooooooooooooow

  • i 100% agree with simon.

  • Singing this song on AI will curse you. Justin got second, Clay got second, Jasmine got third, Bo got second, David A got second.

  • Yup, so will singing Suspicious Minds by Elvis.

  • and i wanna dance with somebody but only 2 people got eliminated with that song

  • The Jasmine part is only because she sucks...

  • correct you>>>>>>>>>>

  • lol so... it's just a song. it's only truly a curse if they were all voted off after they sang it or if they all came in the same place

  • No, it really is a curse. Even Elton John, who made the song, only ever got no. 2 at best with this song. It really is a curse, and if you look at Clay Aiken, he was never in the bottom 3 like 5 other Idol Winners.

  • i gotta agree w/u on the superstition...

  • clay sang it didn't win. i think some girl named jasmine sang it got 3rd place. he sang it got 2nd. david a sang it got 2nd lol. yeah but bo has an awesome voice.

  • country-ish, isn't it

  • Nah, he thought he'd take it down south another way; soul.

  • Bo... oh yes!!!

  • overall justin was good. david was better than justin. clay was better than david. bo was the best.

  • He's so good!

  • I just adore him....he is so incredibly talented...God sure blessed him with a beautiful voice and the passion to succeed...

  • everyone who sings this song on idol comes up short in the finale(mostly)....

  • Haha.. gosh.. kinda true.. didnt realise that

  • ...FOR RICH...

  • I didn't like this as much as David A's version, but it was still very nice.

  • Nobody sings this song like clay & bo. David a messed up that song.

  • this is the best version of this song ever on idol. Clay is fantastic but i think Bo's version just stood more as its own performance and not really parallel to Elton John. every other version besides those two needs to be erased.

  • this was pretty good =D

    i never really liked how he sang, but he did well with this

  • The difference between Archie's version and Clay's and Bo's, was that you could tell that Archie put everything he had into it. Bo and Clay did fantastic, but David blew everyone away. It was amazing.

  • Yes. You can literally feel Archie's emotion.

  • I totally agree with you linrocksyou .

    David Archuleta's rendition was the best among Jasmine Trias's , Clay Aiken's and Bo Bice's .. Hands down!

  • david archuleta never put a damn thing into any song brittayn3928 thats why they all turned out the same. Bo wiped the floor with him and if the two had met up in a finale Bo would've beaten Archuleta by more than 12 million votes

  • David Archuleta owns this song after season7 finale. The way he delivered was way way better and the BEST of them all. No one should ever sing this song in AI after David's performance, unless he is that great to top DA's performance...IMHO.

    Bo sounds drunk in this song...

  • that was beautiful. its funny cuz bo was my fave this season, clay was my fave season 2, and archie was my fave season 7. they all did the song beautifully, but i love the southern rock feeling he put into the song. bo's and archie's are better than clay's. sorry, claymates.

  • Bo's a Rocker through and through!! the best version for me, atleast!! :)

  • I agree 100%, no contest at all, David archuleta knocked everyone with this song. Period.

  • This is actually very good. It's a great vehicle to show off one's voice. Clay does a great job on this too. David Archuleta's version is in a class by itself, however, and may be the best single performance of any song in Idol history.

  • Archuletas version kicks all ass, sorry.

    clay's = ok, but i dont like his voice.

    bo's = weird, and why was he wearing sunglasses?

    archies = extroadinary
