[jettyfire]

She also wants a career in medicine and after winning this she still is pursuing that career.

[sexycubanchocolate]

A man who likes young girls is getting a standing ovation. What a shame...

[IAmTheStrongTree]

[71Bray71]

Charice?? Who are talking about her? Nobody Charice let her for there!!! Now We're talking about Melanie!! Charice is a glee girl!! ok? It's like a Dispney Star!!

[IGotGameXD]

I'm a man and I'd cry to have a moment like that.

[thetwinkaltoes123]

i like her voice .. and she is one lucky lady to sing with R.kelly...

[AurynThePaladin]

Is this the guy who peed on some young girl?

[Mskivila]

@AurynThePaladin Yeah and a well known women beater too..

[Shazubuzu]

@AurynThePaladin loll no thats kobe bryant

[JayKay309]

R Kelly.. AMAZING...

[wolsilita]

Simon...Please Please don't change this girl...let her be true to herself even if it means selling her contract out to a major gospel label.

[midgetc280795]

r.kelly = high respect

[naterfisher]

All you guys keep doing it's hating on her but just remember one thing, it was america you cased the votes, if she was as bad as you guys say she is then why she make it this far. Jealousy is what it is.

[PrettiMamita]

Melanie did a wonderful job!! And if you don't like her, why are you watching this video? Haters only making her more famous!!

[VampireWillow13]

Melanie deserved to win, Chris couldn't sing and im sure josh will find another way to come out with songs

[MyReedsBroke]

R. Kelly made a porno with her

[gazzyN2k8]

Simon wins again then!:)) haha big payday for him AGAIN

[enriquesilva1rm]

Chris Rene > Melanie Amaro

[TheKevindavid]

wooooo! superb! hands down do r.kelly..

[69franco]

proper pronounciation of words is an important key in singing.

[naterfisher]

@69franco As you spell "pronounciation" wrong. It's Pronunciation. And stop you hating, clearly shes good if she won.

[69franco]

@naterfisher who says i hate? i love her.my comment is of for improvement.just listen to the video and don't watch.i wish her success in all her upcoming projects just like leona lewis did. or charice from the philippines.. here on youtube..click it.

[Cosmosity]

Melanie is great. This is the first time I've ever seen the finalists in a competition like this wind up in the right order.

[vevevanana]

WEEEE LOVE YOU MELANIE,yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhh,you did

it <3333333333333

[anajuliatube]

was perfect, this permormance!!! Melanie deserves to win!

[StompInPuddles]

r.kelly is the r&b king

[caciquito12]

melanie sucks

[LovetheLatinos331]

@caciquito12 lol straight up jealous.

[badtzmaroo]

it only took R. Kelly a single line to outperform Melanie....

[waytoomany10]

This is my point, you can type into youtube and find a millino people who sound like Melanie. How amny can you find that sound like Josh or Chris? Come on people this is about originality and talent. If you believe that Melanie as the best voice you would probably be correct, if you were to believe she should win X Factor you are so wrong. She is a gospel singer, and she belongs in a church just standing there singing like she does on stage.

[hockeymaster2000]

@waytoomany10 I think you know nothing about talent. What about mariah carey, whitney houston?.....they are also gospel singers too,and they were the best singers in the world for years. you need to dig in and do some research before you say something you will regret later on.

[waytoomany10]

Melanie doesn't deserve to win. This isn't American Idol, this is X Factor. She has either the best or 2nd best voice, but the best voice shouldn't crown her the winner. She does the same thing every single time. She doesn't play an instrument, dance, and she sure as hell isn't original. She sings the same mariah carey, beyonce, whitney houston every single time.

[sloansv]

@waytoomany10 She isn't a gospel singer...maybe you should do so more research. If her voice doesn't send tingles through your body, then you're part of the very small group of people who just don't feel great art. And as long as someone's voice can actually touch your soul, give you goosebumps - they are great - regardless of what genre of music they sing. I think Josh has a good voice - probably deserves a record contract - but he certainly has no more of the X factor than Mel.

[MultiCoco1978]

Didnt like this performance. R Kelly stole the spotlight from her! Duh!

[angelfoodlips]

it should have been longer, and the background singers should have been softer than her voice because you couldn't hear her when she sang with the m. otherwise awesome.

[18Luckyseven]

someone call 911 i just raped the shit outta that replay button

[18Luckyseven]

my fav part was 2:09 she is amazingggggggggggggggggggg

[sweetiebab74]

AND THE WINER IS..... MELANIE AMARO

[dredude1616]

I hope he didnt pee on her after the performance :)

[svaiish]

Lalove it.. Nice Duet. Yuppp you gonna fly higher & higher with that talent of yours.

[gloriajeanray]

Fantasitic DUET.....love both your voices.......RKELLY writes WONDERFUL songs !!!!! Great job MELANIE !!!!!

[talotolorun]

Rkelly is always a show killer. No one can sing life like him. Melanie am happy for you. You just have the best ride of your life. Best of luck. Put God first and you will go far.

[sweetiebab74]

she is great as always we love you melanie

[buth68]

Melanie is great but this song was unsuitable for Mel.R. Kelly is too great

[ketsuo79]

This perfomance was better than the other two, mostly because of the song choice i think

[iceboss226]

Hahaha......R.Kelly still got it man.....

[shonjevon]

"With God on my side, I know I can FLYYYYY..." - Love That...

[ucanhaveacokeshow]

That was amazing! R.Kelly still got it to

[Skye10oct]

she is so gud :D :D

[originalbadgirl]

Melanie IS a star. I would buy any CD she made. I would listen to anything she sings over and over again. Her voice is amazing.

[alamisi1]

Oh Melanie....what a great performance with R Kelly, and you really made him proud. I just hope and pray that you will win this competiton. God bless you!

[bigbon12rocketmail]

wrong partner to do a duet with . this time I agreed on the annoying comments saying R Kelly outshined Melanie . it's true .

[Giedre3325]

booring..

[XFactor2011TV]

When I posted that comment that said "click THUMBS UP", I meant "Like" the video. Not talking about my comment. Please click the like button if you like the performance.

[spokenrainbows]

You can't take anything away from this young woman, even if you tried. What a first and it was obvious that she did R. Kelly proud. He was beaming the entire time. When he said he's never sang this with anyone before, I was happy for her. He's the man!!! I so loved this performance. Especially since, the anticipation in waiting patiently for him to join her on stage was excitable to say the least.

[khalilasbro]

SHe just got owned....

[MrStreetsofgold]

This is unreal. MELANIE AMARO is performing with the GREATEST R N B SINGER OF ALL TIMES. WHEN MICHEAL JACKSON WAS ALIVE HE BEGGED R KELLY WHO IS THE GREATEST SONG SOUL SONG WRITER OF ALL TIME TO WRITE ON HIS ALBUM. MELANIE AMARO IS THE GREATEST NEW SINGER IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW AND THIS YEAR AND FOR THE NEW YEARS AND FOR MANY YEARS TO COME. GOD I WORSHIP YOU JESUS ,THANK YOU FOR YOUR CREATIONS. AND LOVE AND MERCY. AND YES YOUR WORD LIVES FOREVER.THANK YOU FOR YOUR POWER AND MIRACLES.

[talotolorun]

@MrStreetsofgold You are so right. Lifetime opportunity.

[MrStreetsofgold]

MICHEAL JACKSON HAD SEARCHED HARD TO FIND R KELLY AND PAID HIM MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO WRITE ON HIS ALBUM WHEN HE WAS ALIVE YEAS AGO, AND R KELLY SAID THAT MELANIE GOD GIVEN TALENT WILL TAKE HER TO THE STARS. GOD IS IN HEAVEN LAUGHING AT MELANIE'S JEALOUS, ENVIOUS HATERS. JEHOVAH GAVE MELANIE WHAT SHE HAS, HE SEE ALL THINGS BEFORE IT HAPPENS. HE IS THE CREATOR OF ALL THINGS. GOD LORD JESUS. YOU BETTER REALIZE AND RECOGNIZE .

[MrVanteyng]

I love this and the performance! But did anyone else notice her hair changed for the other performance lol

[ontheair91]

I'M CRYING. JUST CRYING. OMG, IT'S SONGS LIKE THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY TO BE ALIVE. I FEEL SO INSPIRED; BEAUTIFUL VOCALS!!! WITH AMAZING VOICES. AND CRITICS, IT'S CALLED RESPECT. MELANIE WAS SHOWING RESPECT TO A MUSICAL PIONEER.

[silvan671]

When R. Kelly comes in and begins singing, Wow!!! See the difference - It's not a nursery rhyme for kids - but he's so soulful - "True Artist"

[sweetchick3667]

R. Kelly overshadowed her. she should've sang that big note.

[MrVanteyng]

@sweetchick3667 I agree

[mikeberry94]

she couldn't outsing him because the song was in his key or else he couldnt perform it.. which is why her vocals were low.. if the key was higher which for her voice it should of been, she would of destroyed him..but obviously he's not going to be able to sing this song the way everyone knows him to sing it if the song is in a higher key... THINK about it people, use ur brains.

[JoeyBuchanan32]

@mikeberry94 your an idiot. It is known that R. Kelly can hit any note. His range is one of the best EVER! Nobody can outshine him.

[jayden2595]

BEAUTIFUL!!!! With everything she has been through...this song is perfect. As for everyone saying "oh he outshone her" well think about it: He has been in this industry forever! She is just starting, for a duet they were on point!!! :)

[eagleking48]

Well duh R. Kelly outshone her... he's the writer, producer, and original artist of the song...

[steelerbranch]

she should have destroyed r kelly. he dominated her. you need balls to have the x factor.

[rodrigosalasja]

EW. big mistake of Simon. that was SO BORING :/

[rodriguezada]

@XFactor2011TV you rule! thx 4 uploading this so fast...

[rodriguezada]

[edmondc2]

Melanie, I pray that you win because you always give honor God.

[Pukiefication]

With God on your side, you can definitely FLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! You're a born D-I-V-A!
