[xxxjade8xxx]

@noeojitos it said something about simon and they hate each other so he ripped it.

[noeojitos]

@xxxjade8xxx Thanks! =)

[budkbelozzz]

@noeojitos simon for president .

[reneeMC87]

wow that's awesome Mariah actually mentors the contestants instead of just saying oh that was really good... She is the only mentor that has given them actual vocal tips. love her!!

[jimecalfa]

what ryan seacrest and the green paper said? I didn't understand...

[BEYONCEBOOTY]

I love Mariah. she was so great with him. Jason is so hot!!!

[ninomeshi89]

mariah was so kind!

[tinachipp]

best person to ever grace the AI stage.

[davidcookrocks5]

this was a beautiful performance.

[calajami]

New single out now:)

[HaNa3903]

i love him and i miss him so much best american idols ever

[27372731]

I could feel your song Jason Castro. You sing from you heart. You are adorable!

[HLK623]

stop hating on him....he is amazing and has a gorgeous voice, and not to mention he is gorgeous, love love love the dreads

[VioletKrystal]

he ruined my favorite song, actually he ruins every song he sings, this guy can't sing, neither can his brother, don't know why he made it to the top 4

[zurccopan]

mariah hugged him,turning her head. "dont wanna smell ur dreads." lol. i liked his style.

[janinajamaica]

da hat er so schöne haare und macht dann so was..nee nee

[varevshatian23]

HOW CAN YOU RUIN SUCH A WONDERFUL SONG!!!! Mariah Carey's songs should NEVER be covered by other people!!!

[fufugal]

now that's an intriguing looking/sounding young guy. i'd listen to him over these white-bread-looking guys

[nightslapper]

ur cool jayson!!!!!1111

[ivike18]

I love you Jason! I'm Hungary girl

[obsidiansdawn]

He ought to cut a record!

[Newpluginbaby]

His voice is pure and stunning...Who needs huge pompous vocal power when you have a sound like Jason. The true talent never gets that far on Idol.

[8675309v]

reminds me of a Hanson brother gone solo...

[queenminority]

yea he does remind me of hanson lol

[AJohnn91]

Wow im not the biggest fan of Mariah cary but ... when she told him how to arange the par at 0:43 geez that was Genius

[jesparza562]

Listen to Underneath the Stars and All Alone in Love and you will really understand her genius.

[rearea718]

it sounds like a totally different song!!!!!! lol

[mysterylady145]

jason you have 1 brill voice,,

[smn645]

love you jason!!! love this performance so much he's so cute singing this song hehehe

[Dannysaucedo2]

He was soooo sexy here ;)

[riveoside]

His last good performance on the show. He started fu*kin up his last few weeks.

[bls5160]

jason will always always be my favorite idol. such a beautiful person inside and out and that voice, listening to him always makes me feel calm and peaceful. love you jason - good luck with atlantic records

[nikkim15]

[McNatanael92]

MRIAH IS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!

[th3m4k3rs]

[marcus86]

wht is the banner tht ryan ripped off?

[nazalin]

Simon for President , lol

[lewis3265]

I love his voice. He's supose to have a cd coming out some time this yr.

[sandtats]

Atlantic records just announced yesterday that they signed him! Their press release said to expect his CD out sometime in the summer! :)

[atozinco]

fantastic!

[CameronCourts]

She gave him great advice. I wasn't a fan of his at all. but I loved that melody.

[calajami]

Love his voice. Where are his high viewed vids going? There was a vid of this with over 350,000 views and now it doesn't show up. Rainbow had over 2 1/2 million views and that one is gone too.

[emma6767]

Same with Archie's videos.

[wow6bigbang6wow]

...

[kindheartedmuah]

what did the sign say that Ryan ripped?

i love jason he made really far too bad he lost he should have won i dont like david cook

[chocolatechip20]

Her i am watching this once again : D love this song and the way Jason sings it ... Love ya Jason

[keanu249]

OMG!! i am addicted to jayson castro videos...LOVE IT!!! where is he now?

[chocolatechip20]

here i am once again watching this performance, cant get enough of Jason Castro... Love me some Jason : D

[chocolatechip20]

love both versions of the song.. I think he did a great job on this song too. i dont agree with Randy though lol 03:00-03:10

[ItalianDani90]

ugh I miss the old American Idol..this yr kinda sucks..I think last years was the best

[bilfamily]

its boring without jasonnn

[sandtats]

No worries! He just signed with Atlantic Records; album out late summer! He's also collaborating/writing with Kara DioGuardi!

[polikes]

he sings good. and nice face. its just his hair. its too 'dirty'. his his hair should be somethin like randy's and he'll look good.

[xautumxnrainx]

This song is exactly how I feel. He's a beautiful person.

[ohbabybabyify]

@xautumxnrainx lol, but you should give credit to Mariah cause she wrote the song.

[rshorty91]

the sign said "simon for president" jsyk...

[KaBlamMoosh]

God I love this song, and i love the way he sang it.. So much better than Mariah's, in my opinion <3

[xGigaHertzx]

I love JASON more than anyone in this world!!

He is totally myh idol!! 4 days till I see him on tourrr♥♥

ahhhhh! :D

[mickiefever1010]

When was the last time I heard her sang that song...I now even doubt if she can even sing it....but I love her more than anyone in this world..

[ezefan1991]

i thought jason did a great job on it and so did Mariah

[animemania01]

I never is a fan of his, but I love him! :) what happened to randy? he was in bad mood I see ;)

[jstardude]

EXTREME HD!

hhaah this is awesome thanks for the amazing footage

Jason is so amazing and I LOVED that simon liked this one

[stroberimanisrasanya]

he ruined the song

[AnonRulez]

ITA. Totally butchered the song.

[queenamidaldal]

randy sucks

[seductivelydangerous]

what happened to simon at the beginning.?

[xGigaHertzx]

III LOOOVEEEE HIMMM!♥♥

[Nikki123x]

LOVVVVED IT :)

[caitlinvalerie]

I agree with Paula :) WHOOP!

[afterglow114]

I guess this is why I'm not meant to be a judge on AI=P

[AnonRulez]

I agree w/ Randy on this. It sounded like it was out of a luau. The performance was totally boring and sounds like the rest of his other performances. I'm so glad he got the boot this week.

[karolinakosh]

i wanna be in that luau...:D

[AnonRulez]

Go ahead because I wouldn't :)

[karolinakosh]

oh thanks for your permission, it means a lot

[AnonRulez]

My pleasure. =)

[karolinakosh]

dude you need to find other ways of getting plesure...seriously... anyway, night night

[AnonRulez]

That was sarcasm, duh. *rolls eyes*

[karolinakosh]

really? wow... wanna chat? send me a message, i don`t think anyone else cares bout this piontless conversation. bye

[AnonRulez]

Why would I wanna waste time sending a message to you?! I dont give a f%ck if anyne else cares about this conversation IMHO. I dont like this performance at all. You unfortunately do. We'll just leave it at that.

[freakazoidodo]

i agree anon. castro the rastafarian pothead sux cock and so do his fans. he shouldve been kicked out earlier and hes gone now bwahaha

*comments are unread and deleted so dimwits that reply with negative comments can go choke on some manure bwahehe

[revengeissweeterxx]

ok...first of all...idc what you say to me because im giving you a negative comment in response to your RUDE one. and btw...the second part of what you said makes ABSOLUTELY NOOO sense whatsoever. Learn how TO WRITE. youre so stupid. And really...do you think anyone cares about what you say? Get a life, and if you dont like him, then you know what?DONT WATCH HIM OR LISTEN TO HIM. PROBLEM SOLVED. But if youre so good, i would LOVE to hear you sing. Cant wait to see your video. :]]]]

[JDSexY94]

paula dice haha q le gustaria escucharlo toda la noche en un luau haha... junto con simon xD ahha lol :D

[afterglow114]

Jason definitely out-did Mariah Carey....this is DEFINITELY better than her original.

[AnonRulez]

This is not one of my fave songs from MC, but there's no way he out-did MC. Jason's voice is too weak to be even compared to MC. Plus, his version cheapens the original song IMO.

The only person that came close to being as good as MC was David Cook, but not his live performance though. His studio version of "Always Be My Baby" came close to being as good as MC's version. If he had sang in his performance like he did in the studio, it wouldve been spectacular. :)

[italgirl08]

these versions of MC songs arent supposed to sound like her, therefore u cant really compare them. The point of this was to see if the contestants could take the songs & turn them into their own sound & style. Jasons voice is laid back & soft, therefore he chose an arrangment that suited that and he did a great job at making it his own, if i had never heard the original, i never would have guessed it was a mariah song. Obviously few people can top mariahs voice, but that wasnt the point of this

[rakefedrus]

oh really?so why you listen to jason song if you think he is not goo enough,well leave jason alone

[AnonRulez]

Why can't I? I just wanted to check out how he sang this MC song and he didn't do good at all, but that's just my honest opinion.

[ohbabybabyify]

Are you fucking kidding me??

[seductivelydangerous]

he's so cute,.nice voice!

[ingrideddie]

I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE!!!!!

[paige3406]

Really sucks he was voted off. I don't even know if I want to keep watching the show.

[caitlinvalerie]

one of m y fav performances of his!!

[italgirl08]

Remember to vote tonight guys!!!!

[ssaturn]

Poor thing. He looks very stink. At least he knows one of Mariah's best song. Too bad it was horrible!

[jessesgirl31592]

i luv how randy totally disses him and he just cracks up laughing!

[7happydays]

Jason= You are the BEST!! I LOVE your voice!!!! Randy can go to hell, Just ask Paula and Simon!!!!!!!!!

[wowitsaaron]

ROFL its funny how Jason laughs at Randys comment

[cheliexxchelie]

At least he's not wearing Mariah's pants like David Archuleta did.. lol

[italgirl08]

LMAO

[breezy2134]

"And I loved it." Whhaaattt a cornball!!! He sounds so cheasy and he looks dirty and unkept. I keep listening cause he has a nice voice, but he sorely needs an image makeover.

[italgirl08]

how can u say that? u must be saying that just cuz of his hair because he looks perfectly clean and well kept to me. I've read alot of comments calling him dirty but i bet if he stripped away his dreads they wouldnt be saying that. But what alot of people don't get is that dreads have to be kept clean or they'll ruin, he probably showers more than the average person.

[breezy2134]

He looks like he's the type of person that stinks. lol Unmerciful armpits type :) hahaha

Nice voice though. Definitely needs an image conslutant!!!!!!

[GracefullTiger]

My top 3 of the night:

1)David C

2)Jason

3)David A

[JasonCastroLuvr]

Too bad he had to go right after David's amazing performance!

[horsechick101109]

dont lke him

[jakkrapunodd]

Wow it was terrific!

[aligasan]

this is his best performance. i loved the way he changed the song.

[feeltheheatt]

ALERT!! Did anyone know that Jason haD been working initially with Cheyenne Kimball and they were/are in love??? If u dont believe me then check it up on google....type jason Castro and Cheyenne Kimball - and u'll get loads of details!! I think it was a good choice....GO JASON AND DAVID A!

NEWAYS...nice performance!!

[italgirl08]

he was on her reality show and that they were seeing eachother. But he has a new girlfriend now, her name is mandy

[marientz]

uniquely delivered!! a shinning potential star! got not only the looks but the talents as well!! i mean TALENTSSS!

[7happydays]

Absolutely awesome!! Keep going Jason!!

[miknge]

LOVE LOVE THIS!!! if Jason doesn't win this, America is stupid and just vote for that Pimpchuleta cos he's cute with no talent! even if Jason don win this, he'll sell more than that lip licking Pimpchuleta!!

[poisongirl8888]

Ok i love Jason too but you really can't argue that David A has an amazing voice too. You can still be a fan of Jason and admit that other people are good too y'know.

[yogikanna]

The sign said "simon for president" ....LOL...but why did Ryan destroy that poster??

[teammigayesa]

Love the latin, understated, chill vibe!!  Keep stayin' true to who you are as a performer...you can't go wrong.

[caitlinvalerie]

loved it!!

[atinitiny]

i hate you. he is unique and amazingly cute. he will be in the finals and obviously you are wrong cus the judges love him.

[luiss16]

HES BAD BAD BAD OMG SOOO BAD...and his voice on the group song was horrendous!!!!!!

[poisongirl8888]

you really don't have a clue what you're talking about. Jason is amazing. If you don't like him why watch him?

[villanueva2189]

all i can say,,,,boring,,,boring,,boring he should go home...he is the weakest idol left along with brooke,,,he must go home,,,grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[LarutanSagKael]

Jason again you did it Love everything you do .Aloha,a grandma

[shyakun]

can anybody with good music knowledge tell me the chords of this song.. please.. i searched it all around the net but still i couldn't find it.. ill appreciate it

[ucfbaj]

it was a little bit beach luau!and thats wht i love abt jason (:

i wld looooooooove to be there all night lisnin!

[betaaaaa]

Awesome :].

And the Simon vs. Ryan thing was hilarious :)))) I love it when they bicker.

[jdiaz2192]

ahiiiiiii wow

[caitlinnnAI]

perfection

[JonasLove94]

I love Jason so much!!! Praying for you Jason!!!

Dreadhead #1125! Whoooooooop...

[JonasLove94]

Now that I really think about it the beginning part of the song (b4 the chorus) reminds me of this old computer game I used to have... it was the Emporer's New Groove! LOL!

[sushibox]

Seeing Mariah give Jason Castro singing tips was quite simply the best thing on TV all week. His face in response to her suggestions: Priceless !! Jason is Awesome !

[008Cynosure]

yea really....Simon for president!

Jason rocked!! we loved you JASON!

[gerbilstar]

Yea he had a good week. And he didnt even have his guitar when he sang. so it shows something a little different, and that he can sing without it. =]

[bboydancer5805]

michael johns would have been AWESOME singing this song!

[SullenDreamer]

lol i love what ryan did to the sign

[JonasLove94]

So what's Randy's problem? I don't think he likes Jason at all.

[DiaryofVanessa]

I know right? randy never enjoys Jason's performances....Jason is amazing!..and randy is annoying!

[JonasLove94]

Jason=AAAAMMMAAAAZZZIIIINGGG!

Randy=Butthead!

Lol! He didn't even really like "Hallelujah"! So silly... at least he gave him some props for Over The Rainbow... which is my second performance from Jason ever!!! :)

[e2daRica]

at least simon like his performance!! weird beach luau??what was that about?? hahaha but seriously..i could listen to this boy FOREVER

[JonasLove94]

Yea... Simon is smart and knows when he hears good singing! LOL!

Randy's just grumpy cuz he wishes he was in Hawaii! LOL! ME TOO FOREVER AND EVER!! I don't know how you could possibly not like him (or not get him like Randy).

[dr3st]

OH MY GOD!!!!

SIMON JUST AGREED WITH PAULA!!!! lol

Loved Jason's style...not typically mainstream music but love it anyway

[robbenter]

Jason was good tonight. But in my opinion, David was on a whole different level of perfomance. He really cranked it up.

[Altrock4u]

I just love Jason. Like Mariah said Jason is UNIQUE! No one has Jason's awesome tone, or the ability to connect like Jason does. WIN or Not Jason will be a huge recording star.

[marycolores]

the final must be between the davids an jason. no matter who wins, for me the three are amazing and will have great carreers in the future.

[bluejean515]

The sign said, "Simon For President".

Jason was great, as usual, seemed a little nervous though - probably from having to wait until the end, and following David Cook. I'm looking forward to hearing the Studio version from itunes - those usually sound better than the performances, because he's more relaxed. But I love him and will continue to vote for him as long as he's in it!

[renee4291]

jason is my am idol and dis is a great performance..do u think he can beat the davids? i hope so.. his style is unique and refreshing and that's what will make it all worth it.

and evn tho he wont win AI, he'll have a really great sounding album that's full of passion and love and optimism. :D

pls vote for him!

[DrFeelgood]

What did the sign say, the one Ryan tore up?

[chronodoggie]

Simon said He agrees with Paula - meaning he also wants to be in the luau listening to Jason all night? Wow sounds like Simon has a crush on Jason :D

[SawadaSis]

sounds sexy...

[kedisbrow]

I liked it. Jason is interesting. I don't know how well he'd sell, though.

[TXSONG]

his voice is so pure n unique but most importantly undeniable!!!! good singers(esp pop singer)do not all have to have big vocal range or powerful voice but they do have to have great ear n great musical sense n...sth like that. I think Jason has all!anyway I hope Jason will do no worst than this next week otherwise he s in danger.

[pdgf]

Watch where that hand goes she-crest.

Hehehe!

[rockwello]

my fave performance of his!!

go jason

i voted for 2 hours!

[HoneyGotMeHooked]

omg he is REALLY cute. dreds and all.

[password]

but what do you think of his voice? lol yes, he's uber cute.

[password]

funny that Simon's never heard of that Hawaiian term, luau... I guess Hawaiian culture isn't quite as romanced in England as I thought it might have been.

this was a good performance! yay JC!
