Clay Aiken - These Open Arms

[clayloveable]

I keep listening to Clay's songs I listen to Clay sing every night/morning before I go to bed, it helps to relax me just to hear his beautiful voice.I already made a comment this morning but wanted to add..I pray Clay has someone special to wrap those open arms around.I know he has Parker, but I mean a partner someone who really loves him, he has so much love to give and he deserves to be happy, and to have that someone special, he has a beautiful giving heart and he deserves someone special...

[clayloveable]

Clayloveable was here!! Love this song!!

[clayloveable]

@politicalanimalll I agree with you all the way, he dose give 110% of his soul in each song.....He is one of the best singers I have heard in a long time...Just love his voice and those beautiful eyes...You just melt when he looks right into the camera...Awesome job!!!  Clay AIken!!!

[politicalanimallll]

You know you're getting 110 % of his soul in each song...the first time I heard him On Idol, through someone's urging, I knew he was a gifted and very hard working performer. 

[triforcekaboom111]

Meh, the Jovi is always better imo. Not saying this is bad but it's not for me and I never cared much for Aiken and he even changed the lyrics Jon wrote?!

[clayloveable]

He has an awesome voice....I just love, love, love his music....He is so awesome.of a singer I think that you could give him the music to any song and he could sing it with no problem......First time too...

You Goooo Clay AIken

[abang92]

I LOVE THIS GUY!

[clayloveable]

Awesome!!!!!!!!

[thezitofiles]

cutie!



[houleeable]

i love you.....

[YOURBBOY]

This is not live performance...... 

[D1G1TALhikari]

@YOURBBOY he's already proved he can sing live with american idol. its kinda sad to see that most artists today are more marketable and that's how they get plastered on every wall in america when their success is due to auto-tune. people that can actually sing but dont have the rockstar image get passed away.

so this performance - live or not, people know aiken can sing well live.

[rayva1]

Jon Bon Jovi...YOU are awesome! Clay ~ you sound just as great as always. You go!

[scootigger]

so sexy.!

[tazzie0123]

IMO, this is better than bon jovi's version. sorry bon jovi's fans.

[ganache6080]

this song just went strait to my heart so beautiful <3

[TikkerLoS]

well, that's too bad. maybe barry manilow will cover living on a prayer next

[Vdon]

@TikkerLoS Just give up and join the Clay Nation

[xzxPeteWentzLuvrxzx]

i love clay aiken (:

[IndigoCat17]

I love all of his songs and I like to sing them in my room

I can't find the CD I saw it the other day but I lost it again

[742512345689]

1:23 did a steve perry type look

[Championshipify]

Wat A SONG, wat a MAN and by christ wat a BAND!!!!!!!!!!!! so much meaning to a song no matter wat it is when jovi sing it!!!! Long live the boys! Cant wait for them in Ireland summer 2011!! Hurray!

[kornfan0001]

both bon jovi and aiken do well on this song but i like the jovi version better.

[sheiladownunder]

I am a huge Bon Jovi and Clay fan. I love both versions.

[fofie675]

I prefer Bon Jovi's version.

I can't believe they only released it as a bonus on their hand japan edition :(

I have nothing against Clay Aiken, I didn't even know him before tonight but I don't feel what I usually feel when I hear this song.

[mecheify]

@MrFoolish2009 I've seen lots of comments about Clay looking like Zac Efron (or viceversa), in that hair. I think it's true. Clay has the same type of facial features as Zac, very fine and beautiful, and perfect skin, but I like Clay's lips much better than Zac's. And of course women love him, doesn't matter if he is gay.

[68Trina]

This is a Great Album! Clay sings with such passion!

[chloegirl91]

i love him sooo much...and the fact that he is gay just makes me love him more because he had the courage to be different.

awesome song too

[travisdominguez84047]

yay for gay clay so everyone have a nice day!

[fishSG1]

He is a really good Vocalist.

[TheKandace123]

To be really honest I really don't care what they said about clay, he may be gay but I still like him and his music!!!!!!

[scootieboots]

love this shima! my niece is a big time bon jovi fan...just like me with clay! i think both sing it well..and that both have soul!

cathie

fb ClayNation group.

[mongoliaable]

i can't tell you how many times i've played this over and over again..Clay is the BEST!

[iabaly]

dear, dear Clay! your lines are so full of love and questionning..Can't listen and then turn the page...We have to take a step back and look inside us...thank you

[Spellu4NCIS]

oh i love it! i searched about two years for this version & now i found it. it always reminds me of my great love...i lost it, but i still, yes i still, hope!

[facelessfatloss]

IMO, this is definitely the best rendition of this song...just wonderful.

[ste4ca]

He's so HOT!! Love him :D

[iabaly]

maybe this thing he has with changing his hair style and color....maybe it does him good....Kind of a way to get loose!!1

[Lyhyt]

Indeed! :) His voice is just a better fit for this song, and he gets more feeling into it in my opinion. Bon Jovi did make a great song, and made a good performance, but Clay is just a better fit for it. :)

[Lyhyt]

Ok, I'm a huge Bon Jovi-fan and a big Clay Aiken-fan. But I gotta say I like this version more than Bon Jovi's. Clay Aiken is amazing, simple as that.

[crystal0angel]

I always loved to sing this when i could find the cd lol

[acinorev627]

I LOVE THIS LOOK

wish he kept it! ):

he looks soo cute!

[QuanticMechanics]

this gay (no offense) gives me goosebumps, nice voice

[iabaly]

he brings life to my days!...

light to my soul.....stars into my eyes....and I am 65years old....I need him so much! for all of the above....lol

[dragondiva27]

I ADORE this song!!!!!! And I dont care what anyone says, I will always love Clay!!

[DownTownTilley]

Waaaaaitttt. When did Clay Aiken get so cute??? He looks British. He has an amazing voice.

[mongoliaable]

i am new fan of Clay. I agree with you.

his the real talent. Clay one of the

best LIVE performer. BEST LIVE PEFORMER.

[Claysidney]

Agreed!! Clay's so talented. Welcome to the Clay Nation! ;)

[Wowzers4Clay]

Clay's the Real Deal that's for sure. :)

[radical6031]

how dare they compare adam lambert to clay aken!

[baker358]

YES! How dare they, cause Clay's voice is incomparable!!

[davesmama2008]

Yes, Clay is waaaay above Adam in all senses! No drugs, no alcohol, well spoken, has a college degree, created a foundation, incredible voice and much much cuter, with no make up at all!

[musique281]

@davesmama2008 I beg to differ.While I prefer Clay's persona,from a purely vocal/musical perspective Adam is frankly more gifted.Huger range,better phrasing and in some cases better tone.I have always been a Clay fan and voted for him,but I am musically trained and am just being honest.Clay may have a college degree,less makeup etc. -but those are not the what makes a stupendous vocalist.If you still have doubts regarding Adams vocal abilities type in his name and "brigadoon""

[mecheify]

@musique281 What I can hear when Adam sings, is 99% screaming, and that's it. I would never ever could hear a whole CD of his, on the other hand, I can listen to Clay for hours and never get tired of his voice. I completely disagree with you, but it's OK. people not always agree. I'm not just interested in Adam, I never take the time to watch any youtubes of his, because I would be bored to death, not to mention I'm too lazy to give comments to anything I don't have any interest in.

[davesmama2008]

@musique281 Clay's range is amazing, just search for All is Well. Sorry but I'm not interested in searching anything for Adam, I never do it. I have listened to some song occasionally and not voluntarily but I don't like his screeching, I can't hear a real voice. Clay has been voted as the best American Idol overall and the best runner-up also many times. I suggest you to google it. I don't think I can put links in here.

[trolochon]

i love you so much clay....you're so cute

[TheBebe81]

BREATHTAKING!

[lovevic52]

really beautiful

[beccathewonderful]

i love him so much!!

[lsdollylovesclay]

I love this!

[quackdebbie]

He has a nice voice. Nice to listen to. Nauseating to watch. Barf. He is dramatic, pretentious, and arrogant. Sickening.

[NVpianist]

Fantastic song and fantastic voice! I love it!

[trolochon]

Clay creeme que tienes un super fan en México , espero un dia puedas venir a visitar este pais...

[coffeehollic07]

He is so hott.... And has an amazing voice

[kenzboiboi]

rock on!!! clay rocks!!

[pinkmoonusagi89]

i still like a lot better Bon Jovì's original version! BON JOVI ROCKZ! But still I Have to say clay aiken did A Great Job!

[lvnc25]

I just love this song....and Clay Aiken does a tremendous job with it...like he does with everything he records. His voice just blows me away.

[lvnc25]

Oh, my, what a gorgeous guy...and that voice. He sang that at his Concerts in 2007, I believe. He has an unbelievable voice...and really connects with his audience. They all love him. He has an awesome fan base too. Just an all around good guy.

[foreveraclaymate]

God, he's so talented. And may I say gorgeous, too?

[crystal0angel]

I love this song i sing to it all the time also i know someone else who could sing clay's version of this song waaaaaaaay better then me and clay both his names kory fulton

[ebeanbee]

Never followed Idol at all, still don't, but was surprised when I found out he placed second...his voice, talent and appeal is reminiscent of Manilow (I hope it's ok to say that...;). This rendition of this song is so much better than the original songwriters (I don't mean to put Jovi down, I'm just saying Clay's version is AMAZING). So thanks Jovi for writing it, thanks Clay for performing it! A really good guy, like him...also like that newer blond hair cut (that's what got me to this vid).

[toadallyclay]

This video is awesome and I don't understand why this was not shown

here in the states. I think so many of

these videos should have been shown

on VH1. Clay really connects with the

camera and with us.

[Lyhyt]

Acctually I found out about this guy when I saw him in Scrubs, and I though "Damn, that was a nice version of "Isn't she lovely"! Who is this guy?" and looked it up. Like him, he's great, and he did this really nice. :)

[gloch]

That song is gut wrenching. I saw him sing this live and he is outstanding with it. I hope I get to see him perform it live again.

[flasher31clayam]

What a gorgeoud man, and the song is beautiful too.

[cenarej619]

Gosh! He looks really gorgeous!

[yipesstripes]

RCA's missed opportunity

[reader28]

I love Clay! I love this video! I really hope Clay tours SOON! I want to see him again!

[Claysidney]

Me too. I'm really looking forward to Clay's tour!!

[scClayAikenfan]

I just LOVE him....

Hope we hear tour plans SOON !!!

[bluecouchpotato]

definitely an international star. wish his label would give him the credit.

the way he sang this song on this video is just so heartfelt, i wonder why the heck the video wasn't released officially.

and then there's that shirt tug... (sorry, i just HAD to say that!)

[KACN30]

I totally agree! Clay is probably the best singer out there! There is not a voice like his! And I dont think they will ever find anyone like him! I wish more people would actually look at him as the amazing entertainer that he is! Instead of what they read in the tabliods and on the internet! Clay is nothing like they make him to be in the tabliods!! He is an amazing singer and person! I so cant wait to hear him live again! I want our singer man back!! Love Ya Clay!

[musicgal234]

My gosh, I love this song to peices! Thanks for posting the video!

[clayeyes]

He is so beautiful when he sings...a lot of singers look wierd when they sing, but Clay just looks absolutely gorgeous, and sooooo damn HOT. We neeeed a tour Clay...

[Claysidney]

Yay!! Please tour soon, Clay!! ;D

[lvnc25]

I've always loved this song...and with Clay putting everything he has into it..it knocks your socks off. What a sexy guy!!

[clayeyes]

Clay at his sexiest. Damn I just wanna run into those open arms, and plaster myself all over that body. Whew, I need a cold shower...

[clayeyes]

Those freaking eyes get me each time.  I melt, and then he tops it off with that smile, and a voice to die for. I am toast !!

[psbintl]

I am having trouble posting comments with links in them, does anyone know why?

thanks...

[cstinia]

wow nice finds.

[ohiosprincess001]

[jessig03]

That gave me chills! Love that song!

[Claysidney]

[WhoseLineBabygirl]

[cobaltcupcake]

What a glorious voice! And regardless of orientation, he's a beautiful man with a beautiful soul and an incredible voice. Get on the tour bus, Clay! Our arms are open too!

[lsdollylovesclay]

Gorgeous guy, gorgeous song!

[symmetricalseraphim]

[lurkerchic]

STOP!! You're making me HOT! God, the thought of him with anyone turns me on!!

[Mad4Clay]

I love this song and watching him singing just seals the deal. Loved it on the SRHP tour. Thanks to whoever posted this video.

[gloch]

Love the video and the song. Thanks

[lvnc25]

OMG...One of my most favorite songs from ATDW. What a looker...and I also love this hairstyle on him. Great song..great singer.

[scClayAikenfan]

Oh my !!...his eyes, especially at the end !!!

That was gorgeous.....

[claydreamer]

This is AWESOME!!! It would have been a HIT... NO DOUBT ABOUT IT!

[Clayzy13]

This was one of my favorite hairstyles.....and of course, what a gorgeous voice!

[Claysidney]

Really, what a wonderful voice!! It gave me chills. love him ;)

[psfirst]

Best.Look.Evah. Wish he'd stayed with this hairstyle & clothes. Great song (thanks, Jon Bon Jovi) & even greater singer!

[MusikLuvrToo]

I agree. He looks so weird now, and not good looking at all anymore. This really was his most beautiful look.

[teritunes]

Love this song. Wish this could have been one of his singles.

[Claysidney]

Yeah this song should have been a hit single...
