i dont know why he didnt won the idol and why the public didnt supported him , they should judje him by his voice not by his sexuality it not fair , voice like this must be the best of the idol ever.
@qatariboy143 There was some controversy over people not being able to get through on the phones to vote. As a result the yr after they opened more lines!
I still think Clay should of been the winner but like the other seasons American does not know how to vote for talent, they vote for the saddest stories.

Clay Aiken can make any song his own. He should have won, hands down. His voice is totally awsome. God gave him a talent, and the boy can use it.
As far as Im concerned, the best performer to ever hit american idol. I wish him the best always, and I hope that his voice will continue to bring total enjoyment to everyone, everywhere. Hats off to you boy !!!!!!
well, he does have a good enough voice to actually sing a great song - I truly hate people with okay voices singing great songs when it was the singer that made them great in the first place - But I just can't go past the righteoud Brothers version :]
i hear lots of emotion in this. clay expresses the emotions of a song through his incredible voice. he doesn't need to use facial contortions & dramatic postures. as for being too fast, i think that's due to the AI format - he only had so much time. if he'd had more time perhaps he would have done it slower. but he didn't need to mimic the original - if he had, he would probably have been criticized for doing that, too - this version is different, yet succeeds just the same.
Hm. I think he kind of butchered that song a little bit. I will agree that his voice is absolutely enthralling but still. He should have just stuck to the original arrangement.

He was the best that has ever come out of American Idol by a long shot, and he is fantastic since then to, to go with his fantastic voice he has a great comedy talent to go along with it,,,,,,I would love to go to a concert of his....
Clay's performance of that song is just spectacular. So glad he recorded it. Still can't believe he didn't win that season. But hey, he's one of the most successful artists ever and that counts to something. Winning isn't everything.
He sang the hell out of it sure but it the song lost most of its gentleness. Still, fantastic voice - just not his song, although I suppose the song can be interpreted in a large number of ways.
The real winner!
