I love Elliot Yamin; he was always my favorite on AI when I used to watch it. And Mary J. Blige--what can you say? She is awesome. Great performance by the two of them.
Wow, this would have been something to see if Mary J wasn't constantly trying to out-sing Elliot. This reminded me of someone trying to talk to a person, while that person turns up the volume of music on the radio so as not to hear what you are saying. I saw 2 people on stage here which gave the illusion of a duet, but I only saw one person trying to over-shadow the other.
@helmut4lyfe I agree. Elliot is such a great singing partner. He made an effort to blend in with her, but she just oversang it and was out of control - and believe it or not, I am a HUGE Mary J Blige fan.
Loved the low tone of Elliott on the last part of the song as he sung the word "ONE" loved all those notes going up and down----and so haunting.. great ..
Still to this day, one of the best contestant/celeb performance of AI!!!! This performance of Elliot and MJB along with Adam Lambert's performance with KISS are my top two favorites!!!!
@Sereh182 its better to come in in 3rd or 4th bc you have more freedom on your record the people who come in first lose alot of their freedom to do what they want
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Let me get this right, you are talking about the legend that is MJB? If so you have no clue about performance and emotion, Elliot is a dot compared to the cosmos that is MJB
Mary looks as though she doesn't like to share te stage, but Elliott just stepped right in and made her sound even better-in fact, HE stole the show!!!!
mmmmmmmmmmm no mary shares the stage alot she cant help that she is a powerful singer she has sang on stage with some of the best in the business Whitney Houston Aretha Franklin Chaka Chaka Monica Elton John Jamie Foxx just 2 name a few and as far as Elliott stealin the show....mmmm.... no but he did very well
God bless you Elliott-we know you're struggling with the loss of your dear mom and we're all praying for you! Know she lived to help you through life to become the great man you are!!
Elliot will always be the best thing to come out of idol. And you could just tell how geeked he was to be singing with Mary. This was a great episode.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Don't get me wrong, folks....I love MaryJ, and she's come a LONG way from where she started, but I still think her vocals aren't that good. It does lose pitch and gets screechy at times, and it seems like she wants to "run the stage".
Oh shut the fuck up faggot, she is one of the GREATEST SINGERS OF ALL TIME and she WILL go down in history as that, your opinion doesn't matter, her voice did nothing but MOVE the crowd and thats what it is all about, she nailed every note and sounded AMAZING! You could NEVER EVER do it you piece of shit.
DeadLiyah, I agree with you that Mary J is amazing and talented but was it necessary to use the FAGGOT word? I mean, I am gay and love Mary too, but don't disrespect us by using that to insult someone who you disagree with. I never use the N word or any other words to insult those who I disagree with but find a lot of people on Youtube using that Faggot word so casually when they are pissed. Totally unnecessary.
are you kidding me!!! my ears are fine. hence the reason why i am able to say that mary is far from pure talent and closer to pure messy. she has no technique at all. her riffs and runs are far from natural. this song is for a wide range built vocalsit. something mary will never be. when she attempts a high note she resorts to screaming and ALWAYS cracks. not to mention her pitch is always off. maybe you should clean your ears sweetie.
Elliott has a killer voice for this song - I love his tone in this - I think he let Mary J. " overshadow? him in deference to her star status . Elliott is a gentleman and a star !

Well if he can't keep up ... He can't keep up.. His problem, not hers... I mean should MARY wallow in mediocrity because elliot Yamin can't really sing?

Funny other professional singers have 0 problem keeping up with Mary like Elton John, Wyclef I mean why do wew always have to slow ourselves down for losers like you? Its called SINGING if Elliot can't handle it he need to get out the deep end of the pool. Ya feel me?
Elliott has that haunting tone to his voice. Mary was taken aback by the beautiful way Elliott was singing the One in a beautiful melodic way, she had to shout because she knew Elliott was outsinging her.
LOL... Elliot Yamin outsinging Mary.. Not a chance, sweetheart ...Mary's a real performer and that is the way she sings .. Elliot's vocals were very rehearsed and he had to adhere to that or he wouldn't have made it ..
Sorry ... Mary ain't hit a bad note and she sang circles around Elliot Yamin who is very limited vocally because...a) he ain't paid 5% of the dues , as a singer, that Mary has.. His tone is poor I think a 5 yr old could drown out his voice and he has very limited knowledge of his notes and , something a TRUE singer spends years studying .. Like a Mary a Whitney a Chaka or Mariah... Elliot's got a good voice but I don't think he should be singing professionally.
it has nothing to do with Elliot either having a weak voice or Mary j blidge being a powerhouse/ singing too loud.
It's typical acoustic and hearing. Your ear can't pick up guys voices as much as they can girls. theres no need for these name calling. It's YouTube guys. who cares lol
I think Elliott is just being polite to Mary... Mary is a star...and Elliott is a newbie...He doesn't want to over power her..He wants to show that Mary is more senior than him...but overall, I think they're both great..
Elliot does not have anywhere near the kind of voice Mary has.. Mary is PROJECTING plain and simple.. One of the first things a TRUE singer learns to do.. That means you sing from your diaphragm LOUD.. In the days before microphones and PA systems and all the audio we have now this is what TRUE singers had to do... Its a lost art. Elliot needs to work on his tone and breathing or he won't have a voice to sing with in 5 years.
HaHa look at him now as you havent noticed you get better and he has and he will always be the best make vocalist to come out of american idol. Mary was all over the place but you cant even compare him to mary so why do it.
What a bunch of whiny haters here. This vid is about singers getting to sing together, paying tribute to each other - not a boxing match -and all I see in the text posts here is a race war.
Jesus.
You idiots think the singers themselves would care about what crap you regurgitate here?
From now on, I'm just watching the vids, and not even looking at the posts, 'cause I know what I'm going to find...
A fetid bunch of squabbling rabid racists and morons who can't think of anything meaningful.
gosh ummmm wph1138 you need 2 calm da hell down already sittin down and quick tryin 2 speed typin usless comment b4 you give your self a hernia iight yes mary j. might be black and ghetto but she is good and if you dont like her so much why did you watch this video ?? was it just 2 randomly comment on this and say " Mary j is a whore and a black ghetto nigger ...Rawr Raw Rawr". look dude everybody might agree with you on 1 point i havent heard a new song from mary j but she is the best iight ?
mjb is the best, and wph our whateva, you're just jealouse of other races , we can't help it that we're prettyer,and i don't get your fucking opinion, she's not getto, she's fucking rich , and she got talent.
saying that she's ugly and that kinda crap, i would like to see your fucked up face.
Oh and I call a monkey a monkey cuz it is what it is. shes a trashy bitch. she looks like she needs to be in a zoo. I hate her and I hope she dies in hell. fuck you too. if you like her so much,why dont you go fuck her your self. shes not famous shes just a ghetto trash whore. fuck her and fuck you worthless bitch..
IF she was a racist she wouldn't even sing with him! you dumb people are just making eccuses for why she's just a powerfull voice , i mean she nailed it. It was Elliots job to took the spotlights, i mean no one'' ll give it to him like that , you gotta deserfe it! that has nothing to do with race our ghetto behaviour, wth are all those racist doing here? i mean get a fucking life , you people are just jealouse off the black, asians and latino's so sad. OMG! mjb haters are jealouse!!!
give me a fucking break. if she was so good, she would have known that he was new and would need her help. she was a trashy nigger to take his spot light like that. I thank yor so called god im not a nigger, asiona have little dicks and spics smell like tacos. your comment is useless MJB is a nigger and I hate her cuz she is a trashy whore. shame on her and fuck her. she is a monkey nigger big lip trashy whore.and fuck you 2.
come on you cant come up with somethign better then that? Im fat? how stupid is that. im 6'1" 180lbs. you could wish to have a body like mine. your pothedic even trying me at all. go get your welfair check and then kill yourself. save us all some money bitch..
Love this!! I love MJB and Elliott, they both offer up something special during this performance. Mary: queen of Hip hop soul and Elliott: blue-eyed soul at its finest!

aww elliot is so cute in the beginning he is smiling so hard you can tell he is excited!! and im sorry but mary j blige was a bitch at the end how she just ran off stage without him but the performance was still hot
just what im trying to say. she showboated and acted like he wasnt even there as if it was her show. she didnt need the spotlight, it was his day not hers. thats ghetto..
wph,It's HER version of the song, idiot!!! what was she supposed to do, just stand there and sing nothing?! Elliot could have sung it solo, but clearly the AI powers that be wanted the true major grammy winning star to perform it w/him! Would you be actin' a fool like this if they asked Bono & U2 to sing w/him?! I doubt it! I'm sure Elliot would not be pleased that something like you pretends to be his fan to cover your racism.
Eh...Mary, it was supposed to be HIS performance, but ummm..ok. #NOTCOOL

and the season finale from Season 5 was so unbelievable. idol has been dying a slow death from season 6 onward.

What a bunch of whiny haters here. This vid is about singers getting to sing together, paying tribute to each other - not a boxing match -and all I see in the text posts here is a race war.
Jesus.
You idiots think the singers themselves would care about what crap you regurgitate here?
From now on, I'm just watching the vids, and not even looking at the posts, 'cause I know what I'm going to find...
A fetid bunch of squabbling rabid racists and morons who can't think of anything meaningful.

just what im trying to say. she showboated and acted like he wasnt even there as if it was her show. she didnt need the spotlight, it was his day not hers. thats ghetto..
wph1138 3 years ago
wph,It's HER version of the song, idiot!!! what was she supposed to do, just stand there and sing nothing?! Elliot could have sung it solo, but clearly the AI powers that be wanted the true major grammy winning star to perform it w/him! Would you be actin' a fool like this if they asked Bono & U2 to sing w/him?! I doubt it! I'm sure Elliot would not be pleased that something like you pretends to be his fan to cover your racism.
