James Durbin - Stand Up

[chest002]

I am proud to say this song is the theme song for the ACC Basketball Tournement. This song pops up at almost every break. The announcers make mention of The American Idol James Durbin singing their theme. Credits for Stand Up are at bottom of sceeen. Says it is available on I Tunes. ACC Basketball is huge in the south. I am in NC and he is getting his face out there like it should be. Way to go James. Durbinator406 William Chestnut

[sweetheartjl]

@chest002 yes!!! I'm also in NC and I love my ACC basketball

[MidnightFireBurst]

James is the uncrowned king of last years idol

[brian85ist]

[amberputnam]

modern day john bon jovi



[billykulitzlover]

love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love love.. oh did i mention i love this?

[emojoe2]

He's goin far.

[JRod527763]

I'm an autistic college boy in theater. This is officially personal motivational song now. ^^

[shockingpink41]

lovin it :)

[meatpuppetsucd]

check out my video of James giving an incredible performance back in 2007 in SC

[Skwidmon]

Doesn't break new ground, but still lightyears ahead of the garbage that passes as 'music' today. Keep on rockin!

[SexiestBabyGurl1223]

you are a beast i love it

[TINBITZPHAM]

this is shit, nothing unique about this, the views speaks

[mw2proshot]

@TINBITZPHAM Lmfao, like you could sing like this? Not in your wildest dreams. Get the hell off the video if you don't like it.

[CarlieMarie39]

@TINBITZPHAM You must be an Adam fan ! Let's see you sing like this with Tourettes !

[Lifewireofficial]

Looks like 55 people dont know what really music is. And james, im sorry for whatbour generation has done to music. I know its horrible:/

[Grungegirl1989]

James Durbin is an insiration to me. He has Asperger's Syndrome like me and he is living his Rock & Roll dream right now.

[fuka14]

wooow he is good yoooo

[carly0822]

wow. this is amazing. i wish he would go higher though. its very cliche "Just out of american idol" vibe.

[rockstar11kjm]

@carly0822 Perhaps because he is in fact, just out of American Idol. I can almost assure you that his next album will be heavier.

[ZakushizuXBureiku]

Words can't describe how amazing he is~

[VelvetBeret]

Amazing set of pipes! That is the way to ROCK IT!

[christylee2424]

Way to ROCK IT James!! So AWESOME you got you a label!! You had my vote allll along (and my husband's) :) I'm totally buying ur album!! KEEP ON ROCKIN DUDE!! IDOL SHOULDA BEEN ALLLL YOURS!! :) :) xo

[13DeathBringer]

love him



[brb224]

rocking it

[kingelvis24]

James Durbin FTW!

[kimosaby1962]

Wow I love it. What a voice, and very charismatic. James will go far. He has just began, and will have a fantastic future. So happy for him.

[OfficialMikeMotter]

LOVE this kid's voice, favorite contestant since Cook or Lambert. Wish his band wasn't so Nickelbacky...

[redneckgamerguy]

This is a great song. Next Chris Daughtry?

[MyPSNnameWasTaken]

@redneckgamerguy Lets hope not. Daughtry is about as "rock and roll" as a basket of blind kittens. :/

[rockstar11kjm]

@redneckgamerguy Hopefully he's as big as Daughtry, but with a heavier sound.

[adictopie]

OMG INCREDIBLEEEE :DDDDDDDDD

[stephanburk]

he has got an amazing voice. he was my favorite contestant on american idol and i think that him singin with steven tyler would have been amazing. its really a shame that they had to autotune the crap out of his cd. he already had the vocal power for it. really no need...

[fourquarter]

This is one of the best albums of the year, he actually co-wrote most of the songs ....it's a shame crappy rock radio won't play it more, stupid suits running the show. If Daughtery is taking notes, this is what a "rock"song sounds like, stop putting out radio wimp music....

[vdbjv]

i love him i

[ondeathparol]

I want to know where he gets his clothes and accessories

[lifeblood67]

didnt realize this was my boy from AI, omg i loved him then and he is awesome now.

[Crystal2Starlight]

I love it, in the songs, when the electric guitar is played heavy in them. Its sounds so awesome, that I want to try and play one some day. :)

[sidhes626]

wow....idol contestant playing rocklahoma....

[DontBeReckless]

Sounds like 3 days grace

[yvonnepicard]

I absolutely can not believe this video does not have more views, when shitty rappers and auto-tuned bitches all over the place have millions of hits. It'd disgusting, really.

[rockstar11kjm]

@yvonnepicard I agree, it's sad how people diss his talent when half the people on the radio anymore can't sing a note without autotune.

[Jared2324]

@yvonnepicard because this sounds JUST LIKE every rock song being put out these days. that's why

[KairiChama]

@yvonnepicard I know right?! this song is epic

[JRod527763]

@yvonnepicard Give it a year or so. This guy's just getting started. :D

[coreyinkato]

His wail at the end reminds me of Sebestian Bach of Skid Row back in the late 80's

[farleycl1]

if he only played guitar also...but yea american idol finally found somebody worth a fuck

[horsenaround]

@farleycl1 He does play guitar! But he hasnt since hes had the band, probably cause they dont need it

[ATrueBornStoner]

@horsenaround That's not true. Look up him and his band singing "May" live at the Bing lounge. Durbin plays the acoustic AND sings at the same time. It's amazing!

[horsenaround]

@ATrueBornStoner Sorry...i didnt know that! I watched most of it but i didnt see him do the song "May". He was great at that accoustic concert!

[DinamiteLizard]

this isnt rock, its METAL \m/

[hippiecentral]

Awesome song, video not so much.

[BroudbrunMusicMerge]

The video is hilariously cheesy, but the song kicks ass!

[crazymike44]

@BroudbrunMusicMerge WEll he's working on that part and putting it all together in a much more powerful way... :) Yeah, this song freaking rocks!!!!

[CarlieMarie39]

@BroudbrunMusicMerge He made this for football games. They came to him to record it to be played in the stadiums during games.He recorded it for every team. It's to pump the people up during the game.

[Straightedge308]

American idol should be decided with the judges not the fans, the girls will go fir the cute little pussy guys and real guys dont watch this show anymore so really its a contest for looks not singing

[USHARDY]

This sounds alot like Papa Roach lol it's all good

[ishinobinaruto]

IM 49 where is all the people from my generation sex drugs and rock and roll JAMES DURBIN IS BADASS......PERIOD........ ROCK ON!!!

[horsenaround]

@ishinobinaruto Im here! Im 58 and im with you! Even been to Woodstock! Rock and roll forever! Rock on James Durbin and band! You are great!

[drums22gdrkelly]

This is badass :D

[vampireprincesschaos]

He deserved this so much. Way to go James :)

[iluvstargate]

this should have more views!

[rockindollarranch]

James is pure Talent!!!! It's a shame that american idol followers are so young!! This man gave his SOUL!! NOONE Better!!!!!! I'm his biggest fan!!! <3 Go Durbin!!

[94Cioppa]

The definition of watered down 

[Jonathancowden1]

@94Cioppa sad isn't it.

[majaha61]

i don't know, it sounds alright, but I can't help but notice how the lyrics rip off Egypt Central's "Kick Ass" Stand up

Get your hands up

Move

Are you ready to

Are you ready to

Stand up

Get your hands up

Move

Are you ready to kick ass

[nortonsux]

@majaha61 That's why something sounded familiar! Only Egypt Central sounds like METAL! And I think EC's song about kicking ass and not being defeated would be more fitting for NFL than this look at me on stage song.

[jkathyo]

The song sounds good....but dear God, leave the 80's in the past; I couldn't enjoy this song WHILE watchin the video....he looks like an idiot; sorry James, fix the getup ;)

[amyfan9811]

@jkathyo james looks amazing.. its his style and he doesnt need to change for anyone! hes incredible and by far should have WON.. they fucked him over on that show and they should be canceled for that shit, JAMES deserved it and they royally screwed him, hes better off without idol but its the principle of the thing

[jkathyo]

@amyfan9811 geeeez...chill out; I suppose you know him personally to be actin this way?? If not you sound looney. I'm entitled my opinion and I still think he looks stupid and you might not like this either but, I don't think he was screwed at all, he was voted off...period. Get over it already. Next season has started, maybe you could find someone new to worship ;)

[amyfan9811]

@jkathyo , im entitled to my opinion as well and how would u know if i do know him personally or not, maybe i do maybe i dont you dont know.. u dont know me. and yes he was voted off, but he was only voted off because they at the last minute changed the order they sang there songs in in the second round in the top four so when they set the numbers to call to vote lauren was getting his votes instead of him thats how he got fucked over..

[jkathyo]

@amyfan9811 good gravy; CHILL OUT!! If you'll reread dear, I was ASKING if you knew him. There is never any excuse to lose your cool over someone you've never met simply because someone doesn't share your zeal for said person....it sounds looney. You even made a point to let me know that I didn't know you....think about what that means please. It sounds like you're just a sore loser and YOU personally didn't lose anything....ITS A SHOW; HE'S AN ENTERTAINER!! GET A LIFE!!

[musicismyescape15]

48 people are pissed because they couldn't make it in American Idol so they dislike James because he can sing XD

[FrancesFrancesh]

I love James Durbin!! Stand Up is a rocking sports anthem, from his album Memories of a Beautiful Disaster . The album not only features James awesome vocals, but has amazing guitar riffs, and beautiful meanings in each track! If you really want to hear James and his new band for some rock/metal perfection listen to them on Wal Mart Soundcheck!! James is a beautiful human being and is loved by many!!

[rockstar11kjm]

@FrancesFrancesh I honestly think HTH sounds more metal live than on the album (when they're not doing the acoustic crap that is), which is why metal fans who supported him should still give him a chance. Just wait until he tours and knocks everyone's socks off!

[ocyounome]

Met him in August at the American Idol concert and he's adorable<33 and super nice you can go to my channel to see pics of me, my friend and Scotty, Lauren, Casey, and James. And pics of the concert I'm making the video now!!(:

[TheOscar401]

this songs gets me amped for super bowl 46

[18erin]

James wife is so damn lucky

[Tomboyishness]

Dear Miley,

Get da fuck out the suggestions.

[RockOnTheRangerAsh]

cant wait to see him at rock on the range this year :3

[elsinep4]

James has the most powerful voice, a 4 octave range and it comes so effortless for him. A real gift, IMO he is the best vocalist out there..can sing anything...AWESOME!!

[MrSuperconnecticut]

this is not metal, and isn't rock..... i have no idea whats going on with this guy career but by the numbers of views, not so good.

[L91O]

@MrSuperconnecticut You have to love Glamberts!!! But thanks for giving this video more views!!! Have a great day and enjoy Adam Lambert's music!!!

[crazywolf68]

@L91O what do glamberts have to do with anything???

[Al327Ex]

I dont even care that he didnt win American Idol. He got far enough that he was gonna get a career out of it anyway. He is the first person on there to earn my respect by not doing just pop, or soul, or country. In the words of James Durbin "Give metal a chance!"

[AaronsFF14]

Hijacking my brothers account so I can comment. Am I the only one who thinks James is sexy as fuck? Just checking xD

[Trinfin]

James Durbin is playing Rock On the Range Columbus, Ohio weekend of May 18th, first ever Idol contestant to do that.

[heyguysirock]

@Trinfin he was the first idol contestant to do a lot of things

[Trinfin]

@heyguysirock well, I don't know about all of that, I am pretty sure Kelly, Carrie, and Chris have done a lot more than hew has, but he is well on his way to doing things they haven't that is for sure. I just hope the ROTR crowd will go for his music, not sure if he is heavy enough considering the other bands there this year....I will personally enjoy it, though. I listen to everything.

[slashwaltz]

@Trinfin that's def crazy, and also y i'm going to be there!

[emoghostofdeadraven]

@Trinfin ikr im goin...cant wait to see him.

[BipolarBearsmusic]

@Trinfin Shows that the rock community can actually see talent we it's there and that we don't have to win some tv show bullshit to become famous.

[Saantiks]

@Trinfin He's also playing tomorrow in Lancaster, I'm so stoked to go!

[puppymama1996]

@Trinfin Im going to that to see him!

[meeegashie]

cool song for James

[crazymike44]

I just have 1 wish and MY life will be complete!

I just wish they would put the lyrics in the show me section so I can scream at the top of my lungs with this song and Mr. James Durbin!

This F'king Rocks to the Max!!!!!!

Thumbs up if you agree!!!

[ReignInDeath1]

@crazymike44 Learn the lyrics man. They're simple.

[PrincessValia1]

i met James Durbin in November and a mall and he is the funniest nicest guy ever :) my friend and i took pics infront of his car and in his car we saw that he likes to moisturize and he has a cute lil pic of his son Hunter and he likes to drink coconut water :P i especially liked meeting their drummer Jeff, he is hot ;P. That day we were the first ones to met james and get his autographs, we will never forget it :) <3 

[missmckenna97]

I met James Durbin back in July when I went to see him @ American Idol live in Utah! He was the sweetest guy I ever met. We talked like 4ever and I coun't keep my mouth shut, but I just couldn't help it. So yeah, I still have 3 autographs all, i mean ALL saying "You rock"! Such an amazing singer

Durbinator 4ever!! <3

[CPxSkittlesChick]

@missmckenna97 I love how he signs it that way :)

[Snellinator326]

@missmckenna97 U are so lucky!!!!!

[missmckenna97]

@Snellinator326 Thanx!!!

[glambertcello]

Okay this is why I love James. This is so him! :) I'm hoping Higher Than Heaven is his next single; it's my very favorite.

[crystal236906]

James Durbin your so amazing!!

[maalbe987]

@alexxxlovespandas Really? You think I'm a homophobe just because I don't think Adam Lambert's a great artist? That's just pathetic. I happen to be a fan of Judas Priest, Queen and other bands that include gay members, so don't force-feed me that political correctness BS. No question that he has a good voice, but I just think his songwriting is a little lacking.

[jenna3662]

Love this guy - James Durbin rocks & he stays true to himself!

[backhandgrip1]

I think this is great, nice to see he's doing well. HE HAS A VOICE!

[Tom88b1]

wait does that mean american Idiot

[victoria10012002]

he should open for adam lambert!!! that would be a great concert!

[kicktrickz1]

@victoria10012002 iSo Agree That is Like My One Wish

[breezandsonicwave123]

hghgdfdgdhdhgyffyusgf



[dkuncken]

Excellent! Giving Adam Lambert a run for his money. Also, good ones to come out of A.I., Carrie Underwood, Adam Lambert.

[FlamingPineapples1]

Durbin says hes metal, but if he means that he cant put out another record like his debut. To many sad ballad songs, not enough rocking songs.

[kicktrickz1]

@FlamingPineapples1 Well im Sure There Will Beeh More Rock/Metal Songs Just Give Him Tiime He Has Done Alot Since Coming Out Of Idol

[LadyRedRocker2]

I love this song. I think James should be the half time intertainment for the super bowl with this song. This song should also be the new monday night football theme. When I hear this song I invision the video being more of a live concert video in a hugh arena with a great stage and light set up with thousands of screaming fans.

[LadyRedRocker2]

OOPS I MEANT HUGE....LOL. SORRY FOR THE TYPO'S. :o)

[musicsuxnowadays]

This is still reminiscent of 80's hair metal and that scene is just over. its not a terrible song, but not vbery good.

not even near Daughtry. not ever going to get close. this dude, wont be around in 2-3 years.

Daughtry, carrie and kelly will always be around. they are true artists and have the voices.

[TheJCRfilms]

@musicsuxnowadays while i don't disagree with you on the fact that those tree can carry a tune, I do disagree that they are true artists. Carrie as well as Kelly do not write their own music. However this song was probably written fro James I see him doing well.

His sound is reminiscent of Breaking Bejamin, Nickelback, and Theory of A Deadman. He would do well touring with them and will appeal to a different crowd than those other three do.

[musicsuxnowadays]

@TheJCRfilms Dude, Carrie cowrote on about half of the songs on her last album. kelly writes her own stuff. and Daughtry writes almost ALL his own stuff. he does not sound like BB or TOADM he sounds like skid row. looks like he cowrote on 5 or so songs so at least he is trying. i just dont dig his stuff. dont hate it and dont love it. you want a band that sounds like those 3 you mentioned. check out CAVO

[shyngo]

This is more the James Durbin I was expecting, and not that atrocity lead single "Love Me Bad" that sounded like the bastard love child of Daughtry and Motley Crue. Albeit I hear this quickly becoming a theme song for a WWE PPV.

[turnsomeddirtyon]

This song hurts my nuts when he sings the high part at the end.

[CountLorcean]

he's a talented singer, but not original. This song is basically Nickelback's "burn it down" or three days grace's "the good life" re done with his vocals.

[Crowhurst15]

@CountLorcean How can you say that? they sound nothing alike...

[Heavymetallord1]

Who's the lead guitarist?? He looks so familiar? (The one playing the white Epi Les Paul)

[L91O]

@Heavymetallord1 Dylan Rosenberg (from Archer) is the lead quitarist.

[half227]

@Heavymetallord1

Dylan Rosenberg (Rose) he is from Archer Nation

[Jared2324]

this has been done before way too many times. Three days grace/nickelback/hinder

[bullseyeskogen]

@Jared2324 very narrow minded comparison. He has more balls than any of those lead singers. Those guys would sound horrible singing things such as Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. Plus he also nailed Skid row unplugged.

[Jared2324]

@bullseyeskogen i never said anything about his skill. i said this song has been done before and the sound isn't that original. he has great skills, i think they need to write songs that aren't typical rock songs for him to really go off on

[missplunderbunny]

he was my fave.. love that he's doing well.. just wish it all wasn't so completely stylized

[foxy3421]

awesome as always:) keep on rockin' James

[dexdabox1972]

go ahead, brother..........this is how new rock should sound, good riffs, drums, voice, nice video.........American Idol was an awesome stage for you to get noticed.

[crazymike44]

Hello everybody, this is The Love Doctor in San Rafael California, getting pumped to do tonight's Seminar... Rockin to this song right now!!! Romance, Love and oh yes, Sexual fun!!!

Live it up!!!

[travoltus]

Durbin is awesome! American Idol can kiss my ass with their #1 picks. Daughtry comes out 4th, gets a contract with RCA and pops the cork with the fastest selling debut rock album in history. Looking forward to a lot more from James. Keep it rockin, man.  We're listening!

[makeascene07]

isnt he from american idol or something, not adam lambert but someone after his season?

[THATMETALHEAD100]

woah!! 2:50 total sebastian bach!

[GudLuckCharmz]

James is alright but not one of Idol's best. Adam Lambert, Jennifer Hudson, and Chris Daughtry are the best Idol has ever produced, they're the full package.

[maalbe987]

@GudLuckCharmz Not to mention David Cook.

[cenrockon01]

voice is wayy too edited....

[jbfan10398]

@maalbe987 u forgot Scotty

[bcfrombc2008]

@jbfan10398 Scotty only won because of teenage girls, they pretty much rule america.

[shyngo]

@bcfrombc2008 Ever think James is like Chris Daughtry and it's a good thing he didn't win? David Cook proved 19 Entertainment doesn't know what to do with or how to market a rocker. James is way better off with Wind-Up. He can be himself there.

[GtRiEgEeNr]

@bcfrombc2008 they do rule america but scotty really did deserve it. and both him and lauren are amazing

[musicsuxnowadays]

@bcfrombc2008 that is soooo true. 

[NBathlete17]

@bcfrombc2008 same thing with kris allen

[maalbe987]

@jbfan10398 There's a good reason for that.

[Skullking3D]

@jbfan10398 just look at your name your one of em broskett

[Straightedge308]

american idol is shitting their pants right now

[Kubislayer12]

Congratulations James.

[StoneXZ4]

Ugly mo-fo, but he rocks.

[mlhorton3]

He's GREAT! Love ya James!

[alterbridgefan99]

omgosh! He should have won! I love him. He's adorable! He looks like my nephew, and my nephew has Turrets Syndrome too

[Llulagan]

@uomeabjxx SHUT THE FUCK UP

[ambereish]

@uomeabjxx he is not gay he has a wife and this song is really cool dont watch if u dont like it 

[crazymike44]

Ummm... Excuse me there... Umm...

"WHO THE FUCK IS THIS?????"

THIS IS A ROCKING SONG!!! WHO AND WHEN? IS THIS 80S, I DON'T REMEMBER THIS GUY???? IS THIS 90S'????

This song kind of gives me a weird feeling all over inside my body!

Sincerely, it makes me want to go out and "Punch" someone in the face as hard as I can...

With Love of course!

Thumbs up if you agree!!! :)

I know, it's kind of a twisted feeling, but it's not my fault, listen to the damn song already!!!

[rockstar11kjm]

@crazymike44 This is James Durbin. The best singer of American Idol season 10 but since America has no taste he didn't win. Luckily he'll be bigger than the three people that beat him. He's not from the 90's or 80's but he's trying to bring that sound back and it looks like he's succeeding!

[MultiBreah]

@MaschelleM Well, your page tells me all I need to know about your experience with music. I believe that it's all good to keep it real but, that teenage wanna-be look won't fly with the true rockers and the sound of this song is too familiar so he needs to find his own defined sound. What will fly in the rock community and what won't is what really counts. Idol was just a stepping stone so now he needs to refine and define then flatten them with his look, sound and sheer talent.

[SGTCxELiTExTBC]

Kind of reminds me of a mix between Hinder, Theory of a Deadman and nothing but originality. Way to go, James :)

[ratmsnitf]

Wow James. never did i think that an american idol finalist could produce something i like so much! Well done and I can't wait to hear more!

[michellejaegerjaracz]

I'm pretty surprised, it's actually a good song

[ebdrammeh]

fuck american idol!

[maalbe987]

Only great artists to ever come out of American Idol:

Chris Daughtry

David Cook

James Durbin

[Jared2324]

@maalbe987 soon to be colton dixon ;)

[maalbe987]

@Jared2324 Is he in the new season or something? I don't watch much Idol.
