I cant stop listening to this song-it is absolutely touching!! Stan Walker has the most annointed voice :-)

[TheStanWalkerfan]

[Tevibru]

I wish i could play the harp.

[bekahauskol]

AMEN Stan walker :)

this is the most amazing version i have ever heard! God bless you man, you have the most amazing talent ever!!! woaaah!

[LaughOutLoudWithMeXX]

I was behind you all the way and had the greatest love for you stan but when you sang the national anthem for the diamonds when they played the silver ferns, my fan light for you went dim. NOT out, just dim....xX

[Pohu16]

Hallelujah!:) big fan of Stan, chayah!

[vodahoe]

A bit of a rough start but picked up nearing the end, background harmony did an ecceptional job as well as the musicians

[Mascha500]

Oh man was ist los.... jedem seine Meinung der eine findet es scheiße der andere findet es gut ....Das nennt man Meinungsfreiheit ....

[dangermitch]

wow sounds bad.

[hohepaagee]

@dangermitch u are a peasant piss off.

[allgoodthings3nd]

@dangermitch I don't know what you're talking about, maybe you're tone deaf but I'd love to see you try.

[Mascha500]

What is that ...Australians Idol's ??

[ryanw1pool]

[MyBobbyWhite]

[jjessjessjess]

[abbiegreen]

This is the best rendition of this song I have ever heard!!! :-D So blessed!

[Alehandro231]

I listened to a lot of artist to this song, but neither, so they sang from the heart ...

[MrIrishland]

soz but lee from american idol was better

[qwertymac]

@MrIrishland lol no

[MonkeyDWolf]

@MrIrishland thought someone would say this..lol i reckon they're both good, awesome vocals either way :)

[MrIrishland]

@MonkeyDWolf agree

[pasoeva]

great interpretation! 

[tankguy321]

voice of an angel.

[love79497]

i love you stan walker your the man!!!!!!!

[xxitskenxx]

Words cannot even describe how AWESOME this man is. i'm in love.

[atomicsockhop]

Amazing! Thank You from the USA

[Hayyer23]

hes got a voice dat comes once evry generation....like celine dion etc. :)

go stan... mean maori mean !

[behmoth1966]

why do people need to warble over a perfectly good song ?

[PhilInterisano]

this guy is amazing

[richardhamilton250]

I think he's got an awesome voice, However, If he was going to make this believable he should have kept it to his middle register, his low register is too "abrasive" as someone put it ....

[jobirgheidi]

Very nice

[sexgott1990]

was ein Mongo

[gallai1]

whats the name of this show?

[PhilInterisano]

@gallai1 australian idol

[rickshabs]

He's very good but doesn't hold a candle to K.D. Lang. I may not agree with her life style but there is no one who can sing that song better.

[atomicsockhop]

@rickshabs

her Lifestyle is Her Personal Business.... Please seperate the 2

[stephabraham]

that was the strangest version I've ever heard of this song.

[TheRTHM]

mean as m'maori

[zitored]

no me canzo de escuchar esta cancion teh best!!!!!!!

[c4mac11]

1:29 amazing

[KrisjanisWL]

I prefer the Jeff Buckley and Canadian tenors versions. And Josh Grobin's. I find his voice too abrasive for my tastes. But It's still a good rendition.

[monday161]

Nah virgogreg, you got it right first time with NZ :)

[saifiti1]

All the gay cunts saying they cried after hearing this song, i reccomend you eat some fuckin concrete and harden the fuck up.

[barackobamaisawesome]

@saifiti1 wow calm down mate!

[humarookie]

@saifiti1

a little original with the harden the fuck up shit kid.

[SophiaCopeland12]

Way better than any other remake. love you stan!

[vaelupetseve]

I thank to the Lord, for such a beatiful voice Stan Walker. good luck to your career. God Bless to all the way... Amen

[prattface7]

he changes it from "maybe theres a god above" to "i know that theres a god above". makes me enjoy this performance even more.

[xxitskenxx]

Half of these views , are from ME . (:♥ LOVE his version of the song.

[xxitskenxx]

his voice is the sound of an angel . did anyone else shed a tear during any part of this song , or am i just crazy ?

[sallyprue]

@xxitskenxx you're crazy. i shed more than one tear. =)

[phyllisnz]

I Love this song so much meaning to it

[asydhey]

the best & soulful version i've ever heard.

[68yvonne]

[novarone72]

[pauafritter3]

It's 4 am where I'm @ staying up to see the uploads....hahahaha

Thanks to all who have commented and kept me informed.

[IAmJustSuperman]

Allison... How old was she?

Haha i didn't hate him.... i just didn't like him at all!!

And i didn't like Kris Allen.

[IAmJustSuperman]

Nooo!! i never said she was annoying!! Just weird looking!!!

And the American Idol with Kris Allen and Adam Lambert??

I had 2 favourites. Anoop Desai.

And Adam Lambert.

I liked Anoops voice. It was soulful and awesome.

And i liked adam cos he as an awesome performer and he did his own rendition of every song he performed... Unlike some idols who just try and sound exactly like the original singer...

[IAmJustSuperman]

I meant weird looking! lol

Sabrina was weird.. And personally.. i think she only got in becos people felt sorry for her. I didn't like her very much..

I just think ashleigh was kinda unusual looking and i don't know... i can't explain it... i liked her voice but not her..

[IAmJustSuperman]

The one who left the top 12 first? She was weiiiirrddddd!!!! But yes, she did have a good voice

[IAmJustSuperman]

I know! Lucie should have gone through!!!

Her and Seth were my favourites that didn't make it through.. Stan was my favourite from the beginning. Then Haley and Nathan

[IAmJustSuperman]

"i can almost see it, That dream i'm dreaming But There's a voice inside my head saying, You'll never reach it. Every step i'm taking Every move i make feels, Lost with no direction My faith is shaking But i, I gotta keep trying Gotta keep my head held high. As you've heard before, stan has had a tough upbringing. And he's said that people have doubted him. Idol, and the blessings winning it will bring him is the dream. He wants to get there but there will be things in the way. that explainit?

[novarone72]

news flash!!! big dramas, toby has withdrawn he decided he did not want to go on and have a career in music, he wants to return to teaching, he has selflessly turned the comp over to the remaining 4......the bottom 3 wud have been james nathan and toby with james going home but the withdrawal of toby, james is safe and gets to sing tonite omg! wat drama but our man stan is safe, we need to do that again after tonite to put him in the final 3, gotta watch the show cya all soon!! goooooo stan!

[novarone72]

just about ready to start....will keep u posted

[IAmJustSuperman]

Yayy! Glad to be in!! Lol

I only know the words cos i've heard Ahmir sing it 36557867098 times. But I am the same as you! I didn't know the words to hallelujah or dear mr president... But now i know every word! Just the way stan sings them!

Go Stan!

[IAmJustSuperman]

Heyy i wanna be part of this Stan The Man Fan Club!!!!

Hallelujah.

Anyways, anybody else think Stan will have a strong emotional connection to 'the climb'? Just like he did with nothing else matters.

[IAmJustSuperman]

'Hallelujah' is my 2nd favorite song after Dear Mr President so far..i love all Stan's songs to bits,and play them over & over again,but for me "mr president"hallelujah"

Marcia looked so completely covercome with Stan's Hallelujah performance,i thought there for a moment,she was going to passout,i so wanted to hug Marcia,i know like so many many people the gripping emotions that overwhelm her.!!Absolutely Stunning Stan!!

[IAmJustSuperman]

Haha Churrr!! all my whanau is all around the bay of islands too!! Most of my whanau is from out Tautaro ways.

[novarone72]

truuuuu!! we cud be cuzzies lol

[cicibaubau7]

got my pm??

no ne-yo song but Mario - let me love you - remix Jadakiss & T.I

nice :D

[cicibaubau7]

yes, that was Stan's shock annoucement. It was all a lie basically.... someone wrote which hard core fans Stan loved the most and one of them was me ahahah "I heart mainly simo" which is my name :))) was just a joke :D

Not 100% sure about ne-yo .... probably i'll get some more details today... keep you informed :)

Nova is back! i know it's great.... he said he's gonna vote now as the voting line are open till friday midnight! :))))

[cicibaubau7]

Stan looove you ....

every day I listen to this song..... and i'm in heaven... thank you :))))

[cicibaubau7]

...... there was one for James (flying under the radar = stays in the comp without being noticed, but they played with the words and wrote "the radar is under james" ahaha) one for Nathan (not being versatile=obviously is the opposite) and one for Stan (where we were "fighting" over who loves him the most) All of those threads were jokes... not serious at all, completly false .... hope you didn't take offence.... love simo xx

[cicibaubau7]

ahahaha :D

those thread were created as a joke :)

on forums can get quite heated somtime so those were just to unwind the tensions. Don't if is oz humour (i'm not even aussie) but i think it's a "forum" humuor... when i first started I struggled to understand that kind of humour, now I got it.... when you write there everyday can be stressful at times so a bit of belly laugh it's good sometime :) .....

[IAmJustSuperman]

Just listen to the ahmir cover heaps... it worked for me.

I can't stand that Miley girl!! But oh well.. Stan will do great!

[IAmJustSuperman]

He's singing ahmir's cover.. So it's okay..

Ahmir do the best cover of it,

[cicibaubau7]

yes i know i went .. miles???

but did you hear the ahmir' boyz version?

it so much Stan's style.... it's on utube :)

[cicibaubau7]

don't know the other song... should be something from Ne-Yo ... but not sure yet... keep you updated ...

[cicibaubau7]

and that idea someone had on here .... for Nzers that can't vote.... they could send money to their whanau in oz so they can put more votes in for Stan..... spread the word sista, spread it all over utube....

[cicibaubau7]

Stan is singing "the climb" by miles cyrus, ahmir's version :DDDD

[cicibaubau7]

hallelujah! Stan da man!

Senchavanilla, top notch!
