Syesha Mercado - I Believe (Studio Version)

[loirinhobeautiful]

I Love Syesha!

[JustCallMeKikko]

Syesha has the most beautiful rendition of this song. :D

[mrkgt12]

3:16 is so cool!

[mrkgt12]

fantasia's version is more powerful, but this is good. :) better than diana de garmo. 

[Vocalist1993]

this is SO moving! This is a beautiful song and I've never EVER heard it done BETTER than this. I now wish she won....

[ulfarviktor]

I always loved her in Idol.. she was my favourite

[Vocalist1993]

she's SO good! This talent is what AI is all about!

[1207doc]

this is a great version...

but no one can beat fantasia redention of this song...

fantasia sing it with full of passion when she declared win...

off course we can see the difference eventhough syesha sing it very well..

[MusicallyUbiquitous]

Diana was too nasally. Still a great singer.

Syesha has a broader voice with a smokey tone.

[dgaller06]

I'm just guessing but i think the first whistle went F6-E6-Eb6-C#6-Bb5...The second one went E6-Eb6-C6 (sustained)-Eb6 (briefly)...the third one i think was Eb6-C6

[TediusZanarukando]

Syesha Mercado's version of this coronation song is better than the Fantasia original and LaKisha Jones' version.

[dlknknjboy666]

omg amazing...I never even listen all the way to the end of the song in fantasia's version when she starts to rift and everything, and dont get me wrong this was my joint when fantasia won but syesha's version just holds you all the way thru.

[5450daniel]

i mean seriously, the judges didnt know what real vocal talent was. she was the real deal. she could definitely perform on stage, take on any character; she had amazing vocal control, range, and could utilize so many techniques the other contestants couldnt. i dont know why the judges didnt see that. they didnt even comment on her whistling note at the end. that was vocal superiority right there that the other female cont. couldnt do.

[wreckero4]

i thought she and carly will be in the top2

[i2l3e4a5n6a]

she kinda sounds like diana degarmo

[Prboi92]

@i2l3e4a5n6a yea accept for 3:16!

[spongelmo1]

love this song :-)

[neokid0213]

wow.... the studio version is amazing... i liked her when she sang it live, but this version is just amazing!

[looker768]

ew....don't defile this song with that stripper!

[akoposiregalo09]

is that whistle? tell me anyone....

[JUXNCXRLOS]

yes it is..! =)

[01seepee10]

if theres anyone to blame for her not winning, its us... its our votes that judge their fate

[01seepee10]

does anyone notice that if you search for a studio version of this song by fantasia nothing of that comes out? instead this comes out... i dunno... i like this version anyway

[pimpolha174]

Better than Fantasia!

[gariesohtrz]

way better

[MusicMan120071]

i absolutely love syesha... omg... this song just reinforced my adoration for her... i am so jealous of black people's voices.

Whitney Houston, Melinda Doolittle, and now Syesha Mercado in my opinion are the most talented female singers i have ever heard

[MusicMan120071]

I love syesha...

i was bumbed when she got voted off in season 7 but it had to be someone

[moesalim88]

she is the best

[clinngy]

although it's the same song I think her and fantasia's version are very different, like apples and oranges I just can't compare them

[TheMsirreplaceable]

i love her voice!!!

[dtdurr]

She hits the notes, but it does not connect. it is similar to Diana Digarmo's version.

[draglox]

You are just insane... LOL Doesn't connect? Wow... Not only did she connect, this sounds a millions times better than Diana Digarmo and better than Fantasia.

[ChrisAtkinson93]

No disrespect... But, first of all... You need your ears testing if you believe Diana hit the notes... Her version was oout of control and just plain pitchy... And I know many people that were brought to tears while watching her AI performance.

[starjont]

WOW! she's got one AMAZING voice!!!

[charray123]

I actually like this version much better compared to Fantasia's version. : )

I mean Fantasia has this raspy voice and I just think when hitting the notes, Syesha does a much better job. : )

Despite this, I like Fantasia as an artist though.

[21yOsUrEsH]

what i u use to make this video?

Its Really Excellent

[IslaFan]

Syesha Rocks! :D

[5450daniel]

Someone should have sang this for the inauguration.

[marekyla]

It's as if she owned the song!!! LOved her cover!!! Truly GREAT and FAntastic!!!! A lot lot lot BETTER than FAntasia's version.... I guess it's the BEST, in my opinion!!!!

STELLAR!!!!

WORLD_CLASS!!!

[evtheory]

Much better than Fantasia

I cannot stand Fantasia's horrible voice.

[dugw15]

This is incredible.

[lmaorotflhaha]

I simply love this version of the song a whole lot better then Fantasia, in my opinion, Fantasia can't really sing half as well as most of the other contestants who were in her season of American Idol, I dont believe she should have won season three, but she's a very nice woman though :)

[salacct]

One amazing performer! Most talented AI ever, in my opinion.

[mhs90]

10X better than lakisha (who i love) and 5 X better than fantasia (who i abhore)

[skin888]

did u mean adore, or abhorr? i'm confused :/

but yeah, it's amazing!

[bu11com]

Mein Stanley sag Es ist Hammer!

lol

[bryangul0]

Amazing video!

She did an amazing cover. :)
