American Idol season 9 tribute [final] - Will Young "Leave Right Now"

[lasvegasjh]

How can he breathe with pants that tight let alone sing. 

[stupidjunk878]

Americans hate gays, he would have been thown off of Fox if they had known

[smashingpumpkin1986]

Will Young is a fucking awesome singer, and unlike all the other winners he hasn't disappeared into oblivion.

[penhaligon2]

don't muck it up

[yowandmei]

@penhaligon2 And he didnt!! lol

[lethaihien12345]

I downloaded the whole episode just to watch this performance xD

Lee and Crystal sucked !

[DorothyShelley]

[AtoZfunny999]

I miss last year when the contestants sins' have that much stress and would just dance around and be funny...

[trevdpboi]

this new version lacked the impact of the original recording....

the audience didn't care about his performance. cared more about the video montage. sadz will is underappreciated

[aligary]

@trevdpboi You could be right but Will wouldn't want to take limelight from the finalists 'cause that's the kind of guy he is. There has been lots of appreciation of his performance even so.

[kelvintay8]

Will Young looked more Manly than Simon Cowell in this video

[aligary]

@kelvintay8 Probably because he is!

[alydinamo10]

He changed a lot...

[aligary]

@alydinamo10 Happy 32nd birthday Will.xxx 10 years on since you entered Pop Idol....wow!

[matbolabc]

awesome! but seriously? will young is great but that wasn't the "performance of the night" lee and crystal are better singers... but im not hating on him, just saying

[aligary]

@matbolabc Each to his/her own. Will sang the song beautifully without any effort and being a fan of his for almost 10 yrs, I know that he would not have tried to take the limelight from the finalists.

[matbolabc]

@aligary i didnt think about that, im sure you are right about that, sorry

[aligary]

@matbolabc That's okay hun!

[paula3280]

He is truly a great singer. love you Will ♥♥♥♥

[tessaje]

best of the night...

[BrittOwen]

Wil Young in my opinion looks quite abit like Michael Buble!

[tomcamp6023]

Great singer and great song. If he was dancing around it would not go with the song. Leave that to britney spears. Will is GREAT!!

[claudiabokk9]

Awesome song. Will is amazingly talented and gifted. Why hasn't this man been acknowledged here in America? What a stellar voice! I heard the song for the first time while shopping at a local clothing store. Go figure.

[MarionTT10]

awesome song,,,,the best ive heard yet

[yurina9]

beautiful song!!!

[FinalKH]

He reminds me of Freddie Mercury.

[Malsinc]

Will Young--should have won AI Season 9.

[hyenachase]

@Malsinc you are right only kelly and carrie i would say are better than will,he is easy better than all the rest of all idol winers

[yankids]

@Malsinc HE was the first IDOL ever

[4pinkdiamonds]

@yankids will young won in 2002. the 1st ever pop idol in the uk.

[0o0dead0o0]

yeah dont bother standing up for him... fuck you simon.

[aligary]

@0o0dead0o0 Simon has never supported Will, even when he won PI. Will was always too strong minded for Simon. Simon Fuller has always championed Will and is a very good friend and business advisor.

[InnuendoUK]

Will Young has unfortunately escaped the attention of the american public. While every US star gets plenty of airplay in the UK, there seems to be some sort of conspiracy within the radio networks to prevent him from getting appropriate coverage here. How about a little reciprocity??? Will's work today has been stellar and he is an amazing and accomplished live performer. Not to mention he is SUPER cute too!

[fitnarina]

so fuckable....

[lasvegasjh]

@fitnarina you got that right~

[BlomsterHill]

AMAZING!!!!!!

[neiogneidu]

gay candy song

[tomcamp6023]

The star of the show was WILL YOUNG.

[wanay2]

Ah yes, Will Young is incredible! I've watched and listened to every one of his songs here on You tube, and they are ALL just unbelievable! Check out "The long and Winding Road" also! He stands heads above all of the rest of today's so-called "talent!" 

[4pinkdiamonds]

@wanay2 well said i agree with you 1000% will young has a remarkable talent. i feel he does not get the recognition he soooooooooooo deserves.

[lford1130]

@tomcamp6023 Preach! I'm sorry, but Lee is terrible! I predict he'll be another Taylor Hicks--he'll just disappear into obscurity. He seems like a good kid, I hope he proves me wrong, but his voice isn't special. At all.

Now Will Young on the other hand? Great voice, super talent. Love him (thanks to Jeremy Clarkson listening to him on Top Gear).

[SioLeeify]

@tomcamp6023 Better watch all his performances during the tour & find out for yourself if he's just "average"...go, check it, c'mon!

[august8pm]

His biggest break in cracking the US market and he applauds the band. Twice. *That's* a musician.

[warriorz06]

@august8pm i think will is amazing! cant believe we lost 8 years here in the States. who cares about Crystal and Lee  there is noone like will!

[warriorz06]

@august8pm

[kamadahitoshi]

Top 3..Difficult to choose



[sciguy0504]

He's boring!

[finnmcool]

@sciguy0504 - your seeing Will singing a song he recorded 8 years ago - Look up " History" with Will Young Groove Armada - there is alot of old stuff on You Tube.

[pottypink]

@sciguy0504 no u r so wrong. dont judge him by one performance. he is so funny and does plenty of dancing for his live shows. will young never ever fails to deliver a brilliant performance.

[valarierenee]

@pottypink

will young never ever fails to deliver a brilliant performance.

EXCEPT for his idol audition. That was a hot mess.

[Tomslassagain]

@valarierenee Ha ha. I remember that....it was really terrible.He was all over the place with his dancing. Oh but that voice! He was my winner from the start.

[wc2k6]

@sciguy0504 the biggest issue is he knows that the focus was supposed to remain on the video behind him.

[kshanet]

Just love this, they showed a lot of Casey.

[dannydream3r]

SIMON IS AMERICAN IDOL!

[aboo00oode992]

just a little question , how come this song is in his new album when he sang it 8 years ago ???

[VonnyDD]

@aboo00oode992

The Leave Right Now album released in the US is actually a cut down version of Will's greatest hits album "The Hits" released in the UK last year.

[finnmcool]

@aboo00oode992 - As Vonny says - the album is not a true album - its a sample of some of Will's work.

[PenaltyKillah]

I liked how Ryan was using both hands to hold the mic... this occurred more during the last weeks of this season. Hmm.

Great tribute. Now if only Gareth Gates will perform next season.

[nhlafontaine]

The best part of the show. When is Will going on a concert tour in the US and Canada?

It's been 8 yrs since he took the title of POP IDOL S1, This LIVE performance just show us all what a true artist he is! Fantastic Performance!

[BeanieBasstard]

[SHAWNMlCHAELS]

WOOO

[MrRobin7hood]

Ilove this song & like the smile @ the end of the song!

[ILoveKatieStevens]

[pottypink]

you show them will how it should be done, a truly perfect performance. come home will we brits need you. xxxxxxxxxxxxx

[loveslaketahoe]

I love this song so much and seeing Will Young perform it live on Idol was mesmerizing. The melody is haunting and his vocals are unforgetable. Loved his smile at the very end. Thanks, Idol, for having him on the show. My favorite moment.

[ericmeng1]

@loveslaketahoe i totally agree. i woke up at midnight having this song playing in my head. it make you cry.....

[jfam182007]

that was a great song for eliminations!i loved it since the first moment i listened to it! (=

[greenteabanana]

damn he sounds even better live

[lugnut2001]

all i can say is WOW.. what a voice... what a song.. that song is so full on emotions..

[mariecrisable]

this song is the best song on american idol!!! amazing song love it!! :)

[TheRachelle16]

i'll miss simon! he's the greatest judge, he is so true! and by the way, yes LEAVE RIGHT NOW is the best song so far, it kinda fits simon's leaving :D

[Blueknightex]

To be honest. I didn't really like this song as the Farewell song for American Idol this year but as weeks went by I started to like it =)

[hthtthb]

I Love Will Young.

[iTrick2]

This was by far, the best performance of the night. Will Young ftw! Im obsessed with this song.

[5EBASlo96]

Simon has white hairs on his head and its time for u to go but im sad... i wont be hearing ur funny comments like u said b4 "possessed by spirits" lol ;(( see u simon cow

[leadea14]

he looks cute

good singer

[groovygal2k]

so what if will is gay? he's been around so long and i love him still. he's so nice as a person and such a great performer. seen him three times live! :D so awesome!

[pottypink]

brilliant performance mr young. you never ever fail to deliver a perfect live performance. well done.

[bashfulbadger]

Great exposure for Will and I hope it translates to success in the US for him. This US Idol has definitely been the weakest I've seen since the start. Sometimes the only highlight was hearing Will sing over the loser leaving each week.

[moggi1961]

will young is fantastic

[moggi1961]

will young was fantastic and the song is wonderful .its was a british number one 7yrs ago and still stands out today

[phototgenicposer]

Is he known in America before this!?!?

[RizzAkane]

1:20 Yummy ... Best of Luck for your future Casey...

[cheoxi]

great song

i love Siobhan

she has beautiful smile and voice.

[pinayz]

The song makes me cry...don't know why

[StrongBadinaterSMU]

Leave Right Now, isn't really an album, it's an EP introducing Will Young to North America. It consists of songs he's released within the past 8 years.

GO WILLY!!!!!!

[phath831]

here for LEE

[Luke2579]

Isn't Will Young gay?

[Delightful91]

@Luke2579 What has that got to do with this performance? Oh that's right, absolutely nothing. If you like Will's singing, then enjoy it, otherwise move along, as there are plenty of other singers out there for you to watch and/or listen to.

[finnmcool]

@Luke2579 And due to the wonders of nature he can still sing - don't you  just love evolution - sadly not everyone has evolved fully.........................­......

[mustangmom27]

@Luke2579 Who cares?

[lauranh666]

@Luke2579 thats got nothing to do with his singing abilitys

[thisiswan2009]

@Luke2579 yes he is!!!

[ericmeng1]

@Luke2579 yes he is. he is so cute and has a beautiful voice. l love the song so much and i already ordered his cd.

[Sarina2000Maya2000]

im going to miss u simon :( best song on american idol byfar!

[Palerider1196]

@Sarina2000Maya2000

The show won't be the same without Paula & Simon and I thought this years talent kinda sucked. It hasn't been good since season #5. Katherine McPhee got robbed. Instead we're stuck with that goofball, hicks.

[GreysGHFan]

This is the part of the show that I was waiting for.....The part where I see SIOBHAN!!! Gaw I love that girl! Siobhan FTW!

[Alem481]

@GreysGHFan Me too!

[excell45]

Great performance from Will - then he always is excellent!

[raider8sox]

Iam Going To Miss Simon!!!:(

[Palerider1196]

@raider8sox - check out Will Young, he's dressed like and kind of looks like Ryan Seacrest

[Banburian1]

You can always hear what Will is singing - and the meaning behind it. Brilliant!

[reyzzz100]

siobhan is hott!!

[m12lopez]

waaaah!!!! I love Siobhan!!!

[Eeyore21forlife]

It's going to be lee

[MagnertSiobLex]

Haha Siobhan is soo beautiful!! Soo excited who's gonna win and the performances tom!! Luveth:))

[Hannah4901]

I "love" this song! Anybody really "hearing" what's being sung?
