The Voice : Patrick Thomas - I Hope You Dance [STUDIO VERSION]

[autumnwind44]

I still haven't forgotten what Blake said during Patrick's blind audition, and I quote: "I have the avenues to make you a country star. I can do it." Whatever happened to that? Dia is currently touring with Blake, but Patrick isn't good enough? I think not. It's time for Blake to fulfill his promise.

[joshRfan11]

Can you get live like you were dying :) i cant find it anywhere !

[redboy2892]

I hate the show the moment Blake chose Xenia.Patrick is the best voice in Blake team and in fact the only voice i can stand in his his team. Thank god team Adam won or i would have gone mad.Adam was the only judge who picked base on talent. His team is just perfect.

[888RoronoaZoro888]

Patrick thomas you are great singer ;)

[msnumber2323]

from 2:52 to 3:15 was amazing!!



[theann111]

@msnumber2323 I love that part! I wish that was on the original song. He made it sound amazing with that note.

[Disneynut16]

So hot!!!!!!

[MzKrew71]

I had a huge tangi when he sung this.. It was so beautiful.. And it made him look gawjus.. You had my vote man.. Blake's a loser..

[MzKrew71]

This song made me have a huge tangi especially when he said why he was singing it.. To his sister.. It was meeeeeeean!!!

[simisam31]

i cried like crazy when blake said xenia...patrick is amazing and i think he deserves to be in the semi finals with dia..i love you patrick !

[supersonichero93]

is it sad that just because this is my moms song to me, i get a little over-emotional? XD

[fivealivecitrus1]

@supersonichero93 not at all :) music is a very powerful thing <3

[johncenasbabe101]

i love the original but i actully cried when i heard this its sooo beautiful.... Blake needs to get smacked up a couple a times

[wannabebadri]

I couldn't believe what Blake did...........Blake's team is my fav . I knew that Dia would definitely get the green card by America. I expected Patrick to definitely be picked by Blake after such an incredible performance. Blake's reasons were justifiable, Patrick's already a pro so he can't make too many changes with him....But isn't this also a competition ? Sad for Patrick who should have gone over Xenia .

[toczer84]

im gonna kill blake... i want to buy Patrricks Albums..

[basketballchica1221]

I absolutely love Patrick Thomas. He has a great voice and he is extremely attractive. esp. when he wears a cowboy hat!

[badgirlsclubhoe]

Looks better with hat...

[akasha1211]

dia would smash u if we had a worldwide vote shed beat u easily

[MzKrew71]

@akasha1211 kiss ass!!!!!

[lemonademouthx3]

blake probably feels like the biggest idiot for picking xenia over patrick and jared. well he should...

[KissesOfHearts]

I cannot believe Blake chose Xenia over him, he was obviously under the influence of some heavy drugs. smh.

[Kayla123498]

christina: "My!!! Arent you a Cutie!!!! can you take your hat off?" *takes off hat* "even better!! Can you take your pants off???" lol(: i love you thomas you shouldve won!! either you or Dia!!

[AliCat300500]

I love him singing this song. I bought it on iTunes and listen to it all the time

[RealiseYourAmbitions]

... a nice depth to his voice.... I like!

[megluvsNJ4ever]

for the record, i think you should have won it all... js.. I absolutely LOVE your voice, your love for your sister, an your good attitude about it all. your an inspiration to us all (: LOVE YOU PATRICK!!!! <3

[ChickenCountryFried]

just think, scotty sang this song and got the words wrong, this guy did close to perfect,

proves who better(;

[MrNewyorkgiants]

@ChickenCountryFried ironic to say the least. I think Scotty got lucky that the fans could vote and it was a bigger show to start out with so Scotty will have the bigger career, but i like them both alot.

[autumnwind44]

@ChickenCountryFried agreed, although I like them both, and not only did they both sing this song, they both have done "Amazed" by Lonestar. They're versions are both really good, but Patrick's was on a camcorder and I liked it better that Scotty's TV enhanced one :)

But I have to admit, this made me laugh: "I said this zone zoo talk, and nuts of wonder. Nang da wonger un your jeans, your fightin' chance." :D -Lyrics, courtesy of Scotty

[allstardjb]

after 2:52 this was where he shined the most

[Nonieeable]

Why did Adam pick Casey over Patrick??? He was sooo amazing

[Nonieeable]

@Nonieeable Oops... he was on Blake's team wasn't he. I was thinking of Jeff... but Xenia was not better than Patrick

[btrluvers137]

amazing!

[kingwesley2]

Im black, I like rap and r&b of course but this guy single-handling make me like country music. I know what good singin is and thsi guy can SING! He has a tremendous voice

[Bestbebest12]

@kingwesley2 me too I like rap r&b reggae other stuff and he made me love it

He really can sing

[dickycecilove]

also, listen to THIS country guy, and who the hell is scotty mccreery?!

[dickycecilove]

gosh, blake is a jerk

[issac97356]

Such a great voice. So great.

[waterp0l02012]

cute and talented. hmmmmmm ;)

[StaraH268]

Amazing-3

[mandzshow]

2:52 is amazing. I thought he should've gotten through!

[allstardjb]

not saying that blake is stupid but he should have saved patrick rather than xenia it wudda been a better match up 2 see

[snowkissedAK]

i like his version more than the orginal!!

[demiDIVA234]

I lik him on this song !!

[Gproducshizz]

he sounds like someone is always shaking him...not a good thing cus hes overdoing it :p

[maxi9viper]

An interesting take on this song: He made it solemn and emotionally resonant just by flipping it minor a few notes in the chorus. Great performance of a song that can easily be boring.

Odds of Elimination: As Adam Levine said, "Christina Aguilera wants to do it with you." He's 100% safe. 100,000:1.

[MyHorsesRBest]

when the show ends i hope they realize how much the screwed up... he was my winner from the start <3

[Miami1987xx]

I love Blake with all my heart, but letting him go was a HUGE mistake.

[beliievexagaiin]

I like the part when it all goes quiet, then he's just like "WHOAAA DANNNCEEE." No doubt, he'll be getting a label soon.

[oogadebob]

I liked the live version better.

[dancer40004]

Looooove<3

[LiahPaea90]

HiS MY FAVOURITE & OFF COURSE iVOTED FOR HiM (:

[lovekagome06]

Blake you made a huge mistake picking xenia. sure she has a unique voice but patrick was so much better. Should have been patrick with dia.

[TheBlueDevilz]

@lovekagome06 agreed. 'unique' doesn't mean good ... I wasn't sure why the judges were fawning over the 'hey delilah' girl a few weeks ago; I personally didn't like her voice. Anyway, Patrick is a beast. And as a country guy, not sure why Blake left him for Xenia. #suspect

[TheEleniAndZellaShow]

Patrick is so amazing....and on top of that, he's extremely handsome an had a nice, gentleman cowboy apearence. I can't believe Blake chose Xenia. It was stupid.

[xXMaJ3StYXx]

i can honestly say blake made the right decision in choosing xenia, sure he sounds amazing but her voice is unique which is what this is all about patrick sounds like many other country singers, and it's just played out.

[PinkANDblackZEBRA]

I wish he didn't have to go home :(

[proyectoquijotesco]

how did he get eliminated?! he is amazing!!

[TheGUNinator]

I honesty think Blake did the right thing. Nashville will pick up Patrick Thomas, therefore he has no restriction on how and what type of music he wants to make. The Voice Contract will cater to a certain demographic. I mean look at all the other singing competitions. The Singers that didn't win flourished more than the winners. The contract on The Voice and the contract for American Idol, its no different, it's all about the $ and I don't want Patrick to be a puppet. He's a good singer.

[SingingForLife14]

Gorgeous voice! Love him! :)

[Rockgirl2go]

Blake made a bad choice, I mean he saved Xiena and she was the worst singer in the voice!

[coasterluv]

@Rockgirl2go>> I agree Rockgirl2go. Xiena had the worst performance of the show that night. Dena was very entertaining, Patrick and Jared both were excellent. but he saved xiena just because he wants to develope her and thinks he cant do much more with patrick and Jared because they are already good. The show is called "The Voice", not "making and developing the voice". Blake was very unjustified and biased in his decision. 

[xbrightgreenconverse]

@coasterluv I AGREE WITH THIS 100%

[o0o0osnappitsdomm]

this was the best song for him!

[weirdpeepsrule01]

i hate blake!!!!he didnt save this amazing singer!!!!!

[philip2cool1108]

@weirdpeepsrule01 But he saved another amazing singer!

[weirdpeepsrule01]

@weirdpeepsrule01 yeah...no she sounds like a dead goat!!

[MarioM45]

Blake Shelton decided to help the singers that have no chance else where. Sorry, but the guys were so much better.

[Allykinz14]

Him going home was a huge mistake, i cant wait for the day when he has world tours and blake sheltons kicking himself in the ass. 

[ahoward123321]

OMG !!!!!!!!! YOUR AMAZING, I only watched the voice to see you perform your voice gives me goosebumps <3

[stopher333]

I agree with you and i cant beleave he was voted off

[philip2cool1108]

okay, this guy is good, but Blake picked Xenia because she is different. she has a great tone to her voice. Patrick is just another country singer. We already just got two more from American Idol, so why have another? He will be okay though

[lovemyfriends1000]

@philip2cool1108 But his is freakin AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lovemyfriends1000]

Y did he not pick him:( 

[TheCesarjimenez99]

Best part 2:52

[metrostationmegafan]

Does anyone know the original artist of this song?

[megmarieee]

@metrostationmegafan Lee Ann Womack. 

[ahoward123321]

@metrostationmegafan lee ann womack

[cbailey45662]

i cant believe he didnt get voted to stay on,he was the best one on there

[shadirock]

(continued) , but the fact of the matter is Xenia has a limited range, she can only mid-slow tempo songs, and she is a nervous wreck on stage... in time she could develpe into a stronger artist... but not in the amount of time In which the voice takes place...Point blank, Patrick should have stayed in the competition...

[shadirock]

Ok... originally I did not think Pattrick should have beat out tyler.. but of every one left for Blakes Team, patrick was the strongest out of the four" Vocally"... he could deliver... If anyone takes a look at the recording of the episode Blake was pissed when Dia was announced as the fan fav... he probly thought that they would pick patrick... but either way he still had favoritism for Xenia.. dont get me wrong she does have a unique sound.. but a sound can only get you so far...

[lemonademouthx3]

i cant even believe he picked xenia over patrick...... i know patrick will be appreciated by someone else and make blake feel sorry he didn't let him through.

[simo92soa]

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! =( I started thinking about it during the previous episodes...but now it's official...blake does not understeand music!!! how can you choose xenia over patrick??!! -.-

[teletubby47]

@simo92soa

blake said he couldnt effect change with patrick and jared like he could with xenia. basically he meant jared and partick could make it without him. i know patrick will have an album coming out and he will prove to blake two things.

1. he could make it without him

2. patrick couldve easily won the voice. xenia and dia most likely wont win. he did make a difficult dicision. i guess its kinda bittersweet....

[SusanMolinaP]

BORING, i don't want this to be like american idol COME ON! No more boring country!!!!!

[liz2oll]

He is amazing <3

[xomandaa26xo]

blakes team is so much better than i thought! i can't decide between patrick, dia, and jared! xenia was also good, but i think her stage presence was lacking and the others really stepped it up in that category. blakes team DESTROYED christinas haha :) TEAM BLAKE!

[comegetmyxlove]

i hope you take off your pants!

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

He is off key most of the song...this song is awful...good thing the itunes sales are showing most people agree with me...

Xenia is much better, she has a clueless coach who has picked the wrong song for her twice....

check this out xnumbr17 youtube channel

[NationalMan]

wow... this is really not good compared to the original by Lee Ann Womack. Sorry...

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@kelvinpyaeko she is 16...still in high school...there is nothing unique about Patrick...I could 50 better country males in one weekend in clubs in Nashville. notice he is not selling om itunes and she is...

[kelvinpyaeko]

@MrPeacefulrevolution lauren from idol is also 16 and she has much better stage presence than xenia. so that's not an excuse. well, what kind of voice could you expect from a country male singer? they might sound more or less the same. and singing is not all about having unique timbre. period

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@kelvinpyaeko The show is called "The Voice" Xenia's is better than Patrick's...Stage presence will come in time...Dia needed the piano to channel her nervous energy...Dia and Xenia should stay, Patrick should go.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@MrPeacefulrevolution you are getting so desperate and turning yourself into a hater..now gtfoh...and you are not having the full right to judge who should go home or not. you are not a professional whatever..just a fan..so no matter how you are bullshitting here, it won't help anyone anything. and you also should go from this page.bye

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@kelvinpyaeko Actually I am a professional...I have played guitar on 5 top 20 hits...I have played for Billy Joel, Benny Mardones, and Rod Stewart.

I can tell you that musicians would rather work with Xenia than Patrick, there is nothing special about Patrick.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@MrPeacefulrevolution lol...so a professional guitarist can judge the singers' ability? not to say you can't, but please, you are now getting to an extent that you sound like a hater.

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@kelvinpyaeko I do have a trained ear...I started out saying he was off key...I can also tell when a singer is off tempo, misses a note, etc....

I am just giving an honest critique...Xenia has rare talent, Patrick is average. Well of course he is above average but among other male country singers he gets lost in the crowd while Xenia stands out.

Doesn't matter anyway, the winner didn't perform last week....Adam and Cee Lo have the best teams.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@MrPeacefulrevolution only now, you sound mature. when you first cam here and criticized him, you did sound like someone getting pissed off. alright, i respect your point.

[Ca12nag3]

@MrPeacefulrevolution I agree 100% that Patrick even though hes good hes fishing in a small pond with a lot of other fishers out there. Xenia is the rare talent. But judging from her 2 preformances (the battle round and the live round) shes got way to much stage fright. Im a guitarist myself too and you got to have seen this as a barrier for her to make it in this show. Her career is just starting though. We will hear a lot more from her im sure.

Patrick im just not sure.

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@Ca12nag3 Her audition was fantastic though...and her three youtube videos are great...Blake is part of the problem, He needs to look at her youtube videos and choose one of those songs for her.

[Ca12nag3]

@MrPeacefulrevolution hmm. But still the interpretation of the artist could make a difference regardless of the song choice. Unless its totally outside your comfort-zone. I wouldn't say Blake is the problem per definition. There are more people working with her. Also her stage fright is just as much a problem she needs to address to herself. And the studio recording doesn't sound bad.

[Ca12nag3]

@MrPeacefulrevolution Another thing is that she doesn't really bring the song. Perhaps lack of feel with the song and most definitely poor choreographical tutoring. Like the entire wave arm thing just doesnt do it. If you want to bring a song like this you grab the mic and move to the audience and sing towards fixed positions and move.

As for the 2 i think that go on will be Dia and Xenia. Jarod was written off square 1 and Patrick has to take on Xenia Blades fav and Dia who knocked m all over.

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@Ca12nag3 It was a terrible song, poorly written, there was no where to take that song...it drags...

Glad she is safe, Jeff Jenkins was the best country singer and he will be safe....Javier and Vicci are the front runners.

[NightMare9963]

@MrPeacefulrevolution WHAT? Patrick and Curtis are by far the better country singers! Both have learned to add a country sound to their voices. Sadly, only Curtis is left because Blake is an idiot.

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@NightMare9963 I was wrong a bout one thing...Casey will be the only country singer left. Curtis showed that he has no range. So your saying to be a good country singer you need to add twang to your voice? As a musician I fint the popular country of today, boring without any creativity...Now I do like me some Allison Krouse, or Ryan Adams which is Alt-Country I guess.

You know what they say....3 chords and a story and you have a country song. Curtis has no chance to stay over Vicci and Nikia

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

@NightMare9963 By the way, I have thought Blake made the worst decisions, until he chose xenia, best move he made all season.

[lemonademouthx3]

@MrPeacefulrevolution thats just your opinion, people like me think that patrick has an amazing voice and has a good chance to win.

[MrPeacefulrevolution]

weakest voice of the night...thousands of struggling artists out there who are better than Patrick, if America picks this wannabe over Dia and Xenia somethings wrong...

Scotty shouldn't have won Idol and this clown shouldn't win the voice.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@MrPeacefulrevolution he is better than scotty in many aspects. this guy can belt with power with enough breath support. not to bash any other artists, but xenia can't still perform live. she is too shy although her tone is unique. but captivating the audience by their allure is part of being a performer/ singer and that's something xenia lacks and this guy does have

[enri66]

I wish we could save 3! I love Patrick, Dia and Xenia.. it's hard to choose :(

[enri66]

WHOO!! MY FAVORITE! I hope he wins!!

[mrzlbowen]

AWESOME.... I FREAKING LOVE HIS VOICE...

[rooster1811]

I loooove all of Blake's team!! I can't choose. (: It's amazing.

[breno2727]

he is a really good singer :) and cute :)

[lemonademouthx3]

his voice is just amazing, hes one of my favorite.

[Nairock]

@MissSuperRocker.. I'm sorry this doesn't have more views.. I watch it as much as I can.

[BreakPics]

that american idol girl, what's her name??? well.. she did a better job!! this is a girl song so it doesn't really fit him... he sounds like a FAGGOT!

[MissSuperRocker]

this guy is amazing how does this not have move views?

[delta970]

@MissSuperRocker its cuz lots of people dont know what talent is. they only view artists that do more popular songs. like in the pop, r&b, and etc.

[MissSuperRocker]

@delta970 sooooo true a lot of people dont know what talent is anymore

[MissSuperRocker]

@delta970 true music nowadays is talentless its all about looks and vulgar lyrics

[drewma12]

@MissSuperRocker cause he's not that good. 

[AKAtepee]

i looove this
