Maybe I'm old fashion.....but all the people in 2006 were so good....but Melinda should have won......but I really Liked all the top six. However...Adam Lambert really blew me away.
This is his most underrated performance. I loved it! He had a couple of rough moments, but when he was good, he was aces in my book. This, Top 9, Top 20, Top 11--all excellent performances from him. I hope Chris releases a couple of singles one of these days. I'd much rather hear him than most of those season 9 disgraces (excluding Crystal, that is)!

what a fag!!!!!that guy slaughtered that song what a dumb fuck!!!he should seriously go to jail for that and be persicuted to the fullest of the law!!!!!!!!!
For this tune from Eric Clapton - just a simple song but need more feels and souls to it. Chris gave his country+souls feels in this performance. Might not be his best performance BUT he does it right to the sounds. It is hard to have country feels if u dont know how to build a song in that way. I feel that Chris kind like latest Kris Allen AI. They know how to interpret a song to make it unique!
There is something with Chris R. that's really amazing. I've watched season 7 and there were so many talents especially David C. but going back and watching Chris R.'s videos is still very entertaining in a special way.
he is sooooo0o0o0o0o0o0o0o sexy i almost hugged him but i changed seats at the american idol concert and touched other people i regret it yet i dont :( :)
Awesome performance; one of my favorites of his. He's a great singer and seems like a really nice guy. Great live, too--saw him in Chicago with the other Idol finalists. Can't wait for some new music from him.
he should stick to soulful smooth and intense improvisations. he sounds so good with this kind of songs, i love his latin week too, but i dont really like him doing rock.. it's just not his scene. i cant wait about what he's going to sing in his album.
Man this dude can sing..I love his voice..Warm,sincere,spirited and controlled.
I can't wait to hear his cd.I just hope he stays in his soulful sexy smooth style.I especially hope he gets the nod to cover Geek in the Pink..He owned that song!I play the ____ out of the clip.Thanks Chris.(I hope you read this) I think your parents are awesome too,They warm my heart to see how proud they are of you.Your dad rocks!
he didn't get voted off that night, nobody did! and shut up and get a freaking therapist idiot moron! it is just a song and you are probably just jealous of chris richardson, so get a life!!!
chris really nailed this song..I really love his voice bcoz it sounds like Justin timberlake's voice which is my idol..I love both of them but for me Justin timberlake is the best!!!!!!!!
I prefer Chris's version: it's good vocally, and it's more soulful, personal, and original. Dan's performance was filled with special sound editing effects, like the echo, which may make it sound better than it actually is... but Chris's performance seems like it's the real deal.
I think thew echo is because of the video, not any sound editing in the performance itself. I agree that all around, chris' performance was good...but Dan blew me away when I first saw his...
Hehe watching this a second time. I realized that this is a perfect song for him. A very nice song chice that fits him perfectly. I think his voice is better than Blakes. But Blakes is a good beatboxer.
Chris sings better than Blake, but Blake seems to be more comfortable on stage and is able to engage the audience better. Also, I think Chris has one of the best recording voices, but he wasn't that amazing of a live singer (only about 3 of his performances were actually amazing while all his studio recordings, except "Don't Speak" are amazing). Blake's a really good live singer to America responded to that.
I've only taken a liking to him recently. There's no denying he has a different voice. It's not smooth or powerhouse like Jordin or Melinda, but there's something drawing to it. Melt-y soulful and pleasant to listen to. (Not all the time, admittedly) I do understand the nasal quality, but I don't really mind. And he's original, like Blake. Stretched out far enough into the competition. He left at the right time, I suppose. And yes, he is cute :) Deserves to get out some awesome-selling albums.
so i'm a chris fan. uhm yeah his way better than justin. &cuter of course. if america didnt like him, he'd be out already :] whoever thinks he has a bad voice yur wrong. ew. the end :]
blake bores me to sleep!!!he may sing ok but there is this intense lethargy with it.....makes me sleep...it's good but it's also dull, blake's voice i mean...
chris is original and he'll probably sell the most albums in the whole history of the Idol franchise...he's damn good!!!!he's voice is tremendous!!!
love it
