  • What a PERFORMANCE!!!...Both ladies are AMAZING!!

  • OOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH KELLY WENT WAAAAAY OFF KEY AT 3:03

  • LOL gotta love when 2 female singers sing together and people start making comparisons.

    It's about them singing TOGETHER. it's not about who sang better etc etc.

    And Kelly & Fantasia both sang amazing!

  • You can tell how they dislike each other,but they r both good.

  • These two and this performance is such a credit to American Idol and the talent shows in general. This is as good a performance of this song as you get from any divas anywhere in the world.

  • kelly owned this.

  • i love this video of them to gether

  • Guess thats y Kelly aint have a album out in a while cuz she "so much better" Kill urself guy

  • @DrLacroix ummm....kelly came out with an album in 09 and is in the process of releasing her 5th album sept of this year. when was the last time fantasia came out with an album? Oh and which of them ended up with 2 grammy's and a butt load of other awards in the last 10 years? Kellys sold over 20,000,000 albums world wide, can fantasia say that? look it up. Do your research before you spout ignorant crap.

  • no one is better than the other, their are BOTH GOOD!

  • i think dey r both really good singers but i would hav to say kelly is better vocally. she hits her notes much easier than fantasia. fantasia forces too much while kelly sings it freely

  • for people who think fantasia did bad, you guys just dont understand how we sing in black churches. fantasia has the perfect gospel voice which is something america as a whole is not use to. kelly has a more pop/rock voice which is something america is familiar with. you cant say one was better then the other when theyre two different genres. and i dont think fantasia would have been on stage singing or have won AI if she couldnt sing.

  • @freakyeah95 im with u!! Fantasia is good!

  • @orchid2491 thank you!! people just hate on her too much!

  • @freakyeah95 well said

  • @allstarcaptain1 thank you!

  • Anyone who seriously thinks Fantasia sounds better than Kelly on this song is honestly deaf or at least a little retarded. That's simply all there is to it.

  • Fanny should have did this song by herself.....Kelly was good but she was out of her element!!!!!!!

  • The beginning of this song was so dead, then comes tasia. Fantasia tore that song down as she does with everything she sings. Fantasia commands a stage! Kelly can stand in one spot and sing (as she did) but Fanny gonna give you a show, so you won't feel like you wasted your money. Kelly had to start hitting high notes cause tasia was killing her....I forgot she was there.

  • @saushababetta Really??? Wow.

  • @Bragofan YES REALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @saushababetta Haha, gotcha. For me Fantasia always moves arounds anyway, but it seemed like she was the one trying to catch up to Kelly. She had that "how the hell do you do that" look in her eyes.

  • Fantasia voice was tired on this, she had just won idol and did a big tour. Put her up there with Tasia now and watch the murder.. Kelly's my favorite idol but out sing Tasia not today..

  • Kelly owned that. fantasia screamed through it. Made mariah proud!

  • lol Mariah/Whitney wannabe duet

  • kelly looks stunning

  • Fantasia ruined that for me.

  • I don't think there's any doubting that Kelly is a MUCH better singer. Sorry Fantasia.

  • i think these are both amazing! Kelly has a wonderful voice! Fantasia has a good voice but has so much soul underneath her voice, which makes her amazing!

  • breathtakingly amazing:)

  • Lets all have some church up in here! lol

  • @tinahesse186 Seriously! They both were channeling their inner angry black woman.

  • @lovebug8753 i think you mean kelly sang it better then mariah could ever lol,kelly belted F5s,F#5s and like more then 5 G5s mariah would die trying to belt all those notes in one performance

  • @KellyFan4Lyfe08 I love Kelly, she is amazing but i dont know which Mariah youre talking about here cause if you mean Carey there is nothing that was sung here that she couldnt do.

  • @atolm1 i like mariah not bashing her at all,just sayin she couldnt belt out all these F5s,F#5s and G5s like kelly did in one performance non stop

  • @KellyFan4Lyfe08 well maybe today mariah couldnt have done it as fluid but in mariahs prime years, she could have done it with no problem. Mariah is known for having the most resonance and efforltess upper register. Watch her early stuff she was a powerhouse and still is. Mariahs version was incredible, she would have had no problem at all.

  • WOOHOOOOO GO KELLY PUT FANTASIA BACK IN HER PLACE!!!!!!!!!! lol this was so funny Kelly destroyed poor fantasia so many times!!!! look at 2:00 2:18 2:29 2:33 3:02 3:30 and 4:07 and you'll see what I mean XD

  • Comment removed

  • im sorry but kelly ain't got nothing on fantasia and never willbut both of them are both good singer but fantasia got more soul in her than kelly

  • Was this a gospel event? Is Kelly a Christian too? They both sing awesomely well though. 

  • honestly i'm just so glad to see two amazing singers just having fun and belting it out live like it should be done. Nothing else compares to the raw talent of both of these women. the both are dressed to kill without letting it all hang out and showing the world that they can sing and they dont need fancy hollywood effects to make them stars. well done ladies. loved it

  • They both were beyond amazing! To God be the Glory! Even the choir was on point!

  • fantasia brings that soulfulness 

  • fantasia brings that soulfulness

  • I am sorry but fantasia can't be touch on the gospel song she raised in church and kelly did good but she can't beat fantasia

  • They are both great singers but I have to give it to fanny on this one. Kelly hit some notes but that's all she did was follow fanny. @ 2:33-2:40 if they had let fanny go with that, Kelly would have went home. You couldn't even hear Kelly trying to go high when fanny cut loose.

  • y'all making it a competition Fantasia loves good music and it doesn't matter who it's coming from, just watch her when she sings with other people and they are singing she still hopping and fist pumping. Get it together people Tasia held her own on that stage......and Yes Kelly is an amazing singer as well they both did a great job

  • Both Kelly AND Fantasia are amazing.  It's not about one out doing the other. They were both amazing together. Why do folks always have to create a competition? They both freakin' killed it!

  • I love Kelly she IS an awesome singer. However Fantasia has more soul. That's all I'm going to say about that. People take things so personally online anymore. It was beautifully done.

  • @jackson4socks HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA you're so funny "uterus was going to fly out and flop on the stage" i cant stop laughing and you're right KELLY RULES and whenever fanny tried to outdo her Kelly just put her back in her place

  • fantasia will be on gma this morning and behind the music

  • hahahahaha did u notice hw fantasia got sooooooo tired!!!! hahahahaha kelly really really dropped her down!!! but i m not surprised!! this ia what i expect from THE BEST SINGER IN THE WHOLE WORLD!! kelly is my favorite singer of all time!!! and will always be!!

  • lawd jesus, i would have never thought!

  • I love the camaraderie these two have. Great performance. Can't wait to see them duet on Idol tonight!

  • It's no doubt that Kelly prolly can outsing Fantasia and has a broader ranger but Fantasia truly MINISTERED the Jesus outta dis song, and here that's what it's about ^_^ HAPPY PENTECOST SUNDAY!!

  • don t miss fantasia on american idol tonight at 9pm est singing her new single "bittersweet"

  • Amazing

  • thats when tasia was green and just startin' out, now she has bloomed into a beautiful wild flower and her voice has improved a lot since then.

  • at 2:52 fantasia is trying to stop kelly and can't wait for her turn....lol

  • @AngSpoiledsaGMA It was more actually like" Oh girl you know you did great", I often see that move in gospel performances!

  • @AngSpoiledsaGMA not tryin to stop her, fanning her cause she was doing her thing that's what singers do to each other when they think the other is really on

  • fantasia was great in her other performance but I was under impressed with her performance here....but I am really like kelly clarkson performance

  • fantasia is the bomb

  • this was ama to the zing B E A U TI FUL

  • im not religious so i dont ever really listen to stuff like this (happened upon it), but i have to say this is an amazing performance! and i love kelly! not a fan of fantasia but she sounds at home here and if she was a gospel singer like someone said then that makes sense.

  • fantasia overdid it...just my opinion. Not that she don't sound good.. She's awesome.

  • this beats whitney and mariah!!! bloody awesome

  • they copied mariah note for note

  • Kelly just kill it on that last note...

    uuaauuuuhhhhhh! Thank God for this amaizing voice!

  • They weren't competing at all, they were having fun ever heard of that? No, cause you're too boring to realize what fun is. Also who the hell cares what race should sing what songs? Shut up and like the voice or not.

  • now that is what i call putting yourself on stage and bringing some energy in the house! Mighty fine job by both

  • i love kelly to death.. but dont give thumbs down to fantasia.. ok? before idol.. fantasia was a gospel singer.. so its her genre!

  • Why does it have to be about colour?!

  • i love them both

  • amazing

  • Kelly's range is so fucking unbelievable

  • lol y r they going to church like dat this was surprising they dont do stuff like dat on FOX!!!!!!!! LOL

  • now if this was what church was like... i would go lol

  • keep lookin' for a church you like... we do this! it's out there!

  • Kelly's form Texas lol... she had her bases covered if you ask me

  • Kelly blows Fantasia out of the water! Fantasia should have never came out.

  • Kelly can sing so much better than mantasia :D.

  • @inodeathflower888 They both have a wonderful and unique style. To try and compare the two would be like comparing oranges to apples. I love both these women and their wonderful gift. You should be ashamed of your comment and I know Ms. Kelly Clarkson would not appreciate what you said.

  • @inodeathflower888 FANTASIA IS GOSPLE and kelly is more pop if u listen to the ad lib's she doesnt make since!

  • @JayArtist1 thank you!! people just dont understand this!

  • @inodeathflower888 So I'm in a board meeting at my job and I almost peed on myself when I read this. LOL

  • u need 2 shut up cuz fantasia can sing just as good as kelly if not better. they have different style of sings

  • kelly's voice is the best here!

  • Fantasia sings with so much emotion,. Her gospel roots takes me right into "worship"

  • MAn they both did they thing..... to show y the both are Idol winners and not runner ups....

  • I don't like when singers get all egotistical and stuff. I'm not a fan of Fantasia and to me, Kelly smoked her and made her looks amaturish. Her tude doesn't back up her talent IMO.

  • wut u mean egotistical? i kno u aint talkin bout fantasia

  • Everyone is entitled to their own opinion; here's mine...both singers were exceptional, but Fantasia was obviously holding back which gave Kelly room to do her thing in the ad-lib department...we all know what Fantasia can do with a song and now we know what Kelly is capable of..quite nice, y'all!

  • You know, I wasn't going to take it further, but when you say, "Fantasia was holding back..." LMAO. Fantasia was trying so hard to outsing Kelly that I thought her uteris was going to fly out and flop on the stage she was pushing so hard. she was trying to get all tough and shit and at 1:45 Kelly gives her that look! lol And each time Fantasia tries to overpower and hit bigger notes, Kelly smacks her down. Had Kelly just done it to her without her asking for it, I'd feel sorry for Fanny.

  • Now I'm feeling like a dick....but really, in Fantasia's defense...I don't know anyone who could out shout Kelly AND hit bigger notes. Kelly isn't my favorite, but when she gets shouting and hitting notes she's pretty much untouchable. Maybe Patti could out-do her? Probably. :-)

  • LMFAO.hahahhaha

    i love this fucking comment.

    "i thought her uteris was going to fly out and flop on the stage"

    hahah. amen.

    p.s. kelly trumps alllll (:

  • @jackson4socks LOOOOOL, No, Dont Fink So Mateeee

  • I think the notes someone can sing has definitly something to do with how well they sing hun

  • its so fun watching them sing. and they sound amazing together. two completely polar opposites as far as vocal appeal goes but they are both phenomenal singers.

    ps for ignorant people here's a piece of information. how ''pretty" someone's voice is has NOTHING to do with how well they SING. please differentiate between the two.

  • He's right about the notes..

  • bellamyjoseph. the negative comments. you idiot wats ur musical background? i have had plenty of musical experience. my dad sang for 30 years si i have had plenty i have been playing for 18 years. so as for the negative comments i can say alot.

  • damn.. how i love fantasia.. but kelly clarkson killed the song!

  • i wisht that carrie and kelly would do a duet,that would be awesome.they can both really sing.

  • How come are there always people on here trying to discourage these artist. They both have wonderful voices, and i can almost bet the the ones with the negative comments have no musical talent.

  • Fantasia needs to pack it in. Kelly has a better voice and a jucier booty!

  • on the gospel side of things . kelly ripped and the sound ma should have accidentally slipped and hit the mute button on fantasias mike. how did she win. and not to be a butt. but if u don know anything about music dont respond. cuz ur nothing but a stupid big mouth trying to start something. so somebody that knows something about music please answer. fantasia is horrible.

  • I'd like to see Kelly hit notes like that today. She keeps lowering the key in her live performances lately. 'Tis very annoying, Kelly can't be going down the Mariah route after only 6 years in the business

  • I don't agree with you. Her voice sounds better than ever, maybe it's just cause the genre is different or something than back then that's annoying you. If you listen to her performances of Ave Maria for the pope, The National Anthem at Yankees, Home at Mardi Gras, My life would suck without you at the gala in Spain and many others you realise her voice is amazing. No other can naile it that way and if you after listening still don't agree than I just think you're not serious..

  • The passion in her performances is still there. She rocked it at the Gala. It's her technique which has been faltering recently. Ave Maria was beautiful. That high note at the end - gorgeous. But this year her voice seems to have changed. It's huskier than usual. She sticks to her lower register, and ALWAYS lowers the key when she sings live. It's like she can't hit high notes anymore. But I respect your opinion. Despite how it sounds, I LOVE Kelly and would LOVE to be proven wrong on this one!

  • its called maturing of the voice doofus,she cant hit high notes anymore?shes been steady nailing Eb5s,E5s,F5s and F#5s and in march she even BELTED a C#6,so you need to get your facts straight,her voice is always been beyond amazing but its better then ever now

  • No. She can't hit high notes anymore - or so it seems, anyway. I honestly don't believe you when you say she's hit those notes. The keys in her live performances are too low. Incidentally, it's usually a good idea to use good spelling, grammar and punctuation when you're trying to insult somebody's intelligence. Otherwise you just look STUPID.

  • Comment removed

  • lmao holy shit,live in denail all you want to kid but there are proof in videos on youtube of her hitting high notes including a C#6 which hardly anyone can belt,i dont care if you believe me or not cant change the truth buddy,and if you dont like da way i spell dats your problem pussy

  • Sigh. Whatever.

  • Does anyone notice how Fantasia's voice gets all scratchy and...well, awful when she goes up high?

    It 's really terrible. But that voice...I'm disappointed. Kelly, however, sounds phenomenal.

  • kelly's cute ass makes me horny

  • oh shit! if you pause it at 4:11, Kelly looks freakn anorexic! holy shit!

    and btw, i thing fantasia killed the song and Kelly waayy out sung her! Kelly was keeping it all calm and then fantasia comes out and starts screaming into the mic! wow! i never liked her! Kelly is soo much better and she's so much more origanal!

    go kelly!

  • im sorry but i think fantasia is one ugly woman

    kelly is like jennifer aniston but better

  • Are looks all that matter to people? >_> Shallow much. Jen Aniston is one stupid bitch, BTW.

  • So listening to this song you chose to focus on their looks (smh). Fyi, beauty is in the eye of the beholder...I really don't think Fantasia is ugly...I think she has beautiful features but I digress.

  • that last note blows my mind! these girls are amazing.

  • Kelly sung the shit out of this song..... better than MARIAH cAREYS'S VERSION

  • Come on, people, kelly is great doing what she do. Fantasia tore dat up, yall know Tasia outsang da hell out of Kelley. I love Kelly and she is one of my favorites, but da girl cant outsang Tasia, hell, Tasia made kelly sing and step up to da plate..

  • kelly is beauty

  • They both did great! They have 2 different sounds

  • dude kelly i think stole the show with her high A's (which would be her highest note if added to her vocal range videos)

  • she def stole the show,the girl is one of a kind,noone can top those vocals but those were G5s not high A's,her highest belted it actually higher then a A its a C6

  • they just get into it and they just

    made the song!!!

    the were singing together and in harmony!!

    that's awesome!!

  • i need a shout..hey...hey hey...

  • One part of a song doesn't determine who's better. Through out the song, they both held their own VERY well. Each singer will do something the others singer can't do as well, or at all. That is what makes them unique. Besides, it's a duet, not a belting competition. If you like Kelly better, just say so. I like them both.

  • Both singers are dynamic with their own unique sound. Fantasia and Kelly held their own, neither out sang the other.

  • Uh, actually Kelly outsang the hell out of 'Tasia. You couldn't even hear Fantasia when they were both belting at the same time...especially on the "KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!!!" notes. Kelly's is like an octave higher, and her facial expression is just like "um, yeah..." and Fantasia looks like she's taking a deuce lol.

  • yeah kelly hit a G5 with ease! she is amazing...i would have like to hear fantasia, kelly and vanessa amorosi sing this! vanessa would have made them both bust their vocal chords! she can go to A5 in chest and C6 in mixed lol! and your so right, mariah cant do that G live i dont think.....the highest i have heard her go recently is a F5....sometimes bordering F#5 but thats it and it sounds rough! fantasia has hit G before on i believe but it was short and unsustained!

  • kelly sang it how mariah does... so good!

  • except Kelly belted an amazing high G with vibrato in full voice. Mariah couldn't do that live.

  • Kelly Clarkson is f'ing amazing!!

  • both of them are so awesome....good team work....go kelly clarkson....amazing...kelly's the best

  • DAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNN!

    both absolutely amazing!

  • go kelly!

  • Fantasia has gospel running thru her viens unlike kelly. They are both good though

  • Funny Come out with your tits hanging out singing about Jesus...Come on Fanta...you have money now..Oh and quit Screaming when you sing

  • ItsTruth talkiing about tits. REALLY COOL.  NOT.

  • incredddiblee.

  • JEE JEE JEE JEE.

    The audio preview doesn't sound as flattering as Kelly. :)

    This performance is so wonderful in so many ways. Two beautiful ladies with two beautiful voices singing one incredible song. :)

  • i love this, it's like they're competing. KELLY WINS

  • This is when i first discovere dkelly

    from then she became my fave idol... :D

    GOd i love her

    i used to like fantasia but she never did any good singles though i like her lives

    ANyways if u ask me Tasia was very good brought the best out of kelly. Very enjoyable; who gives a fuck who was better cant u appreciate anything? Immature youtubers

  • they both did great. but if you ask me, Fantasia was the only one who brought O R I G I N A L I T Y to the song. about 70% of Kelly when she sung parts by herself was too close to the same runs that Mariah does. Fantasia did her best to make the song her own. Not playa hatin...just speaking the truth. but don't get me wrong. I LOVE THEM BOTH! gooooo Kelly and Tasia!

  • I really did not think Kelly could sing until I heard this!!

  • Pinkdogwood757: I agree that KC sounds great here but you should hear her sing "Natural Woman", or "Without You". So phenomenal. Anyway, I even love her "My Grown Up Christmas List." So many people have sung their own versions of these, but I think Kelly owns it once she sings it. (Well, "Without You", may still belong to Mariah, but KC's version holds up; her voice soars!)

  • love it

    thanks for posting

  • dang they both can take it to church but fantasia kinda kiled it. was it just me or did she forget some words? lol

  • loved seeing these two having fun together! people, stop making it into a contest - fantasia's raw churchiness perfectly came together with kelly's sheer vocal power. loved it loved it! they were both amaaaaazing

  • nOTHING RAW ABOUT FANTASIA. sHE HAS A RANGE AND CONTROL. kELLY'S INCLINATION TO SHOUT WAS NOT APPARENT IN THIS. bOTH WORKED TOGETHER . rEAL ARTISTS.

  • no one can touch this chick..she is incredible

  • Kelly is so much better, in my opinion, she is AMAZING!!!!

  • And might I add Kelly's butt is looking especially delightful in this video.

  • ditto. ;)

  • Christmas is coming fast and it reminded me of this.

    They RIPPED this in half.

  • chills going down my back! they sond great together! WOW!!!

  • when it comes to saaaangin' these two are awesome but Fantasia is mt growling gal...no one on God's earth can do it better.

  • Fantasia took this bad boy to the heart of the church....sing girls.....chills

  • OK, this is a performance. They are praising Jesus. In that fact, there is no competition.

  • Kelly doesn't even have to try hard to sound good on a song, it is natural talent. Where is Fantasia now and Kelly is a WORLDWIDE SUPERSTAR!!!

  • Re Snoog2670

    Hold on sport not so fast. Kelly's tour got cancelled. As for Fantasia, where she is is on Broadway killing it in The Color Purple the Musical. I like Kelly too but let's not dscount Fantasia.

  • Excuse her for going against her managing team, they crushed her promo... Who you kidding , my december is by far her best album.. So much depth, the vocals and writting skills are also phenomenal..

    I hate people who judge without having any concrete info

    O and shes releasing a new album in February and its considered to be bigger than rbeakaway.. She did sell about 17 million cds lol

  • Alowaaaaa I didn't diss Kelly , I defended Fantasia. I'm a huge Clarkson fan. I voted for her on AI, and I have most of her albums. Alowaaaaa you say "I hate people who judge without having any concrete info" so you must hate yourself. Or were you just mistaken in posting your comment as a reply to mine?

  • @alowaaaaa So you're saying you hate yourself 'cause you info's not concrete sweety.

    Starring on Broadway in a show based on a Pultizer prize winning novel and Multi Oscar nominated Flick is nothing to sneeze at.

    There's room for both. They're both awesome and they both should be respected.

  • I think they were both thinking "we rock, we sound awesome, now lets just have some fun and show them what we can really do" and it was so relaxed and upbeat it was awesome. Fantasia did awesome, but it didn't seem like she enjoyed as much as Kelly, and in fact the second before the credits come on screen Kelly goes to give Fantasia a second hug and Fantasia pulls away. Maybe I saw it wrong but that is how it appeared.

    I think Kelly really likes Fantasia's voice, and loved singing with her.

  • OKAY- One Im a white dude. Two-This song is good. They did good. its just I think Kelly was better. Third-Don't argue-just agree that they did good and enjoy it. I know that Fantasia couldn't read music when On her season of Idol because I looked it up and I saw a interveiw and she admitted that. But, she is still good at singing and doing what she does.... its just i prefer Kelly. cause I thought she was a bit better.

    and Im sorry if I offended anyone,its just an opinion.
