[Guitarrassdeamor]

What a faggot.

[iabaly]

a little love would not do bad darling!

[1arielone]

How proud his mother must be to be able to see his dreams come true. I am so glad I was able to see the videos on YouTube. Never had the chance to see him live.

[kisses4clay]

Nobody can come close to being such a consumate singer as Clay. He still gives me goosebumps and makes me cry, smile, and feel like a teenager again. Love it and you too Clay!!!

[tinycherub69]

I totally agree. No other performer like Clay. Still my idol after all these years!

[conchett]

Clay Aiken is wonderful sings like no one else.

Lets see more of him.

[flasher31clayam]

No One else can sing like Clay Aiken.

[curviegurlie]

i can sing, but not all the time. sometimes my voice just croaks, but even when i can sing well, i can never, ever, ever hold a note for long. its like holding your breath. and if i hold the note for too long, then i have to take a breahter which messes up the continuity of the song. lol. i dunno how they do that. :-|

[StaticJolts]

@curviegurlie breathing control....the talent is knowing when to take the deep breath...and conserve the air while holding the note. You don't let all the air out at once.

[PrettyBabyLady]

O

M

G!!!

I'm speechless...I HAVE to see this man live on tour....Flawless performance!!

[PrettyBabyLady]

GLORIOUS!!!

[richardhalo]

Are you sorry because he has such a good voice?

[ancestralyuba]

I don't think David Foster has a problem with that.

[psfirst]

Um, people, it was a joke. I love Clay!

[solchy22]

I love this man, he's wonderful, so beautiful as well as his voice. Loved the way he got into the song, as always.

Love ya Clay!!

[funforfinn]

This more than wonderful - just amazing. The best live version ever!

[cenarej619]

Clay is very amazing. I love him!!

[sunsetfan]

fantastic

[noritagar]

Oh my goodness, no one else can sing that song like Clay. He completly infuses himself into the song and it's words. He feels every word, every note, he sings with his whole heart and soul. WHAT A VOICE!!

[noritagar]

Fabulous!!!!!Fantastic!!!!!!!B­eautiful!!!!!!

He is the best, absolutly the best! There are more Clay followers, lovers of Clay, Claymates, then there are those that are envious and jealous of him, that feel the need to say something nasty. They actually are delusional to believe they know more about talent then David Foster. Poor fools.

[mara1451]

Typical Clay -great! I really like his hairstyle here.

[thatkiwidude]

Sounds more operatic than anything else.Sorry.

[cladylady]

Clay has had my attention since his first audition on AI2. Every day he sings is a blessing. Yes,I hear the occasional wobble.I also know did he is one of the very few singers who doesn't lip-synch. He is worth every penny he earns and then some.

[sherryborden]

I love Clay. I will always be a fan. Love you Clay......

[Bucky1215]

David Foster js the biggest and best in the business, and has worked with all the biggest and best entertainers for years. When he calls Clay "Fantastic" we know he knows what he's talking about'. The haters ought to get some therapy.

[etm1969]

I totally agree, Bucky1215.

[Magirocks]

Wow... he is truly gifted and incredible. Wow.

[elbasha123]

after any of his performances, he leaves me no choice but to say what David Foster said, WOW!!!!

[oxygenca]

wow, what a voice? and its coming from a music producer..Great performer too

[ClayNation324]

Clay is such an amazing singer...he has such powerful vocals, but recently has shown a softer side to his voice as well. He showcases both of them with this song and pulls it off flawlessly. Clay is probably the best male singer I've ever heard.

[claylon]

This is a "live" version with very little backing, and recorded from the audience, even in those circumstances Clay blows it away. He is quite simply the Best singer out there. Nilsson`s version, doesnt even come close, Clay has the lung power, range control in fact everything. AWESOME

[bentncrazy]

14 secs long note!

[benbanik]

Its funny reading comments by people who don't sing and have never sang.. if you don't think this is good your crazy..

[InClaysHeart]

omg, must be his best rendition of this song!!!! love him!

[claysbabychick20]

i love his facial expressions!

[Larissa72]

oh my lord...does he have endless lungs??? man I love him.

[realGreenDayfan99]

He can sure hold a note. I really like this song. HE IS SO HOTT. MAN I WANT TO FUCK HIM!! to bad he is like way older than me....GO CLAY!!

[hedgerbet]

Nilsson didn't sound good in this type of setting either, it's better on the CD. I don't go a day without listening to one of Clays CDs, I call it Clay everyday. I think he looks like an older Wesley like the Wesley twins in Harry Potter.

[Bucky1215]

Your 2 cents isn't worth a penny. Why don't you go annoy some other GROWN UPS?

[ellenmunson]

Just wanted to reinforce, what you probably already know deep down, You are an idiot with no taste or musical ear.

[nicke280158]

tracys2cents , maybe you're the one who lacks emotion. Clay has sold millions of CDs and most of his songs are love songs. He's the most successful male contestant in 6 years of American Idol. I think the stats speak for themselves, with or without David Foster's accolades and the praises of noted songwriters like Neil Sedaka. Your comments are therefore irrelevant.

[elephantteo]

He has the best male vocal I have ever heard in my life. Way to go, Clay!!!!

[Magirocks]

I agree completely with you elephantteo!!

[761349]

Was this in Vancouver?!

[rew3737]

OMG!  I am no Clay fan but this sure sent chills down my spine! Is this available on record?

[cstinia]

its on his album, a thousand different ways. it's out right now.

[LauraLuvsMariah]

Clay is the only Male Singer i have seen that can truly pull this Mariah Carey Song off... she sounds great.

[scrubsbaby]

What a voice, I really can't live without his voice.

[nordie]

I luv this song! It's the both version, this version and the original. Clay, he's really a good singer.

[cstinia]

without you is the glory note song of the album to me. AWESOME. he pulls off this song and goes beyond all expectations.

[EmeraldEyes508]

Beautiful!

[Huuugs]

Clay is so passionate on this song! This CD, All The Different Ways, drops on the 19th! Every song is fantastic.

[JustJake]

Must buy this CD! He's simply fantastic!

[kdmomont]

A homerun!!!

[JustJake]

Wowza! He sure knocked it out of the park. Excellent rendition!

[washgirl]

What passion!

[jbdramey]

Wonderful

[wellsowhat]

Wow is right!

[stajay]

Ah man, this song will definitely slay people on tour and in audiences.
