The X Factor Australia - Altiyan Childs - Somewhere in the World (xfactortv.com.au)

[Omgimwatchingyourvid]

He sounds so much better live than on CD :) Love this guy <3 he's awesome

[destiny6666]

hiding in caves, getting engaged to teenaged fans, crying on TV, getting bashed by haters and having his house raided for drugs - Altiyan is still is a rock star ... hehehehe

[cloudrain123]

if he didn't trip this would be perfect

[EleMacca1]

@cloudrain123 lmaao true. when did he tripp? XDD

[cloudrain123]

@EleMacca1 when he was walking back up to stage

[EleMacca1]

[InnocentFilth]

ALTIYANARMY<3

[sillymadman21]

its amazing how when he trips, he manages to make it seem like it was part of the act.. what an amazing person

[MatraaSou]

@sillymadman21 where?

[sillymadman21]

@MatraaSou

at 1:50

[GaijinPrincess]

Awww man....This is how I found out jsut now who won..........I am sad I liked Sally much more. But I only ever watched the performances.

[jaxter854]

I love Altiyan, I love the CD of his single, I love the official music video for this song, but on stage is where I really adore Altiyan. This is where he belongs. He sings with such emotion, he owns the stage. I'm worried that Sony maybe trying to tame him. I'll always love Altiyan and I'll always buy all things Altiyan but it was his raw, powerful, energetic performances on X Factor that won people over. Sony has to let Altiyan be Altiyan, don't curb the power and emotion. Just love him though

[crosbeforehoes]

HE IS AMAZING!!!

[redman68au]

WTF!!!! how did this soft chomp win?!!

[MsKazzaV]

Fantastic artist.. great human being!!!!!

[Weareallnuts]

This rendition is better than the official video. His raw voice and expressive performance stirs the soul. Should've gone with one... I reckon, anyway. I miss the "come out come out."

[ProdigyInTheFormOfMe]

Hmm, why does Ronan look like a love smitten kitten every time he looks at Altiyan...? ;)) What a bromance.. :))

[Cillarocks37]

Liked Altiyan's voice, passion & "live & breathe rock" vibe from day 1. Loved him during xfactor as he proved to be better than I could even imagine. Love his voice, stage presence, powerhouse energy, fire & passion.What a frontman!He rocks!Love his old songs in Masonia too. Have not seen anything this awesome but unique since 80's & 90's rockers.Bon Jovi is still rocking our sox off, thank goodness!Now, FINALLY, a new world class rocker.Love this song.Most deserving winner!

[jimmy2741]

He totally deserved it he kinda slipped hehe.. =D Love altiyan best singer ever!!! <333333333333333333333

[sam888ization]

He deserved in winning the prize .... his showmanship is the best compare to Sally Chatfield. He gave life and soul to the song. Well done!

[StardollCheater]

FINALLY a song that's not about partying, getting drunk, getting wasted, etc. but a song that is actually about war stopping. I love this...

[keksle75]

I love Ronan's face when he watches Altiyan. So cute :-)

[Denitsag]

rocking song.. Go Altiyan

[dancho703]

is this song his?

[clintok89]

@dancho703 Yes its the winners single. Which is available on his CD coming out in Australia on 10 December 2010. Also on his cd is living on a prayer, summer of 69, hey soul sister and some other songs he performed throughout the show.

[jimmy2741]

@dancho703 yes

[SOfannn]

Altiyan rocks! LOVE HIM. Congratulations to you and of course to Ronan winning as a mentor

[bigfras81]

I was praying he would trip, And my prayers were answered. Sucked in ya goofball!

[spicer5463]

so i love this guy heaps im tring to get my band to support altiyan so if you would like to see my band support this amazing musician, please visit our facebook page and tell us you wants to see the band play with him, this would be something huge for us, just search for broken riot on facebook! x

this song is amazing it sends shivers up my spine

[DELOE1]

I dont believe he should have won, he should not have even been in the show. There were other singers in the auditions that were better and remembered the words to the songs, but on every audition he forgot the words. But what is worse is singing Dont Change with INXS an forgetting the opening line, and thinking that he could mumble incoherant words and no-one would notice. Not all of us are that nieve and stupid, his performances on the grand final were not that great.

[DELOE1]

@DELOE1: I also believe that his little stunt of sneaking off and being filmed was not a spur of the moment, and I believe Ronan did know what happened to him, they had cameras on him, they would have known where he was it was just a pulisity stunt, his fanbase before was not that crash hot but after that little escapede it jumped up due to the today tonight segment. they should have been fare to the other contestants and given them all a segment.

[DELOE1]

@DELOE1: I guess people like negativity and sadness more then they like possativity and happines. 

[guybo669]

wicked stuff love his guts

[zenithbeach]

if you think about it, altiyan almost didnt make the show! and now hes won! awesome stuff!

[ambroos21]

sally chatfield is the real winner!!!

[jimmy2741]

@ambroos21 Idiot altiyan rules!!! HE fricken owned everyone from is audition he won already!!! sally isn't good at everything altiyan is!

[OblivionBuster]

his mum looks like a Who from the Grinch movie

[WOTLAD]

@OblivionBuster and your mum looks like my ballsacks, with you swimming in it!

she forgot to swallow you mate.

[OblivionBuster]

@WOTLAD k bro.

[paseybeat]

what a voice!, he is such na good performer!

[twilightandnewmoon10]

he deserved to win this

[Colang1]

Absolutely Brilliant!!! Great voice, great genuine emotion in performances, great stage performer. Potential to be a WORLD SUPERSTAR!!!! Go ALTIYAN!!!!!

[jasons2maria]

i love altiyan childs when is the concert so i can get tickets an see the best singer on X Factor

[bibbyni]

Great work Altiyan you deserve the win. Wishing you well in the future! Great voice and rock star looks. 

[MyGerald28]

He sang w/ emotion. I love it.

[catchingnothing]

Sang with so much feeling & emotion... Great song excellent performer... Altiyan Childs X Factor... Fans take no notice of negativity you know what to do...

[jaxter854]

The first time I heard this song, I wasn't sure about it but now that I have downloaded it, I'm always listening to it and I love it now. There's just something about the way that Altiyan sings that makes a song great. Can't wait until his album comes out December 10 with everything on it that he sang on X Factor. I didn't think any artist could ever interest me again after MJ died but then along came Altiyan. The added bonus is he's ours, he belongs to Australia.

[denisekir]

Real star,

[TheKirbyJohnson]

just another wess carr, another unsellable product

[TheKirbyJohnson]

i bet he doesnt sell 100 cds

[omegaman369]

@TheKirbyJohnson Thanks Nostradamus. That explains why I couldn't buy the video on Bandit FM not long after it was released. The website was flooded with the 100 fans rushing to buy it.

[jaxter854]

@omegaman369 Ha, ha. Love it! If there's only 100 of us who wanted to download Altiyan's single, then if only 100 of us voted for him, we obviously all voted a hell of a lot then. My phonebill is going to be scarier than I imagined. So based on TheKirbyJohnson theory, if there's only 100 of us after the single, then where was the rest of the Australian population because 100 of us still managed to out vote Andrew and Sally. Sorry, I think too much. People like TKJ annoy me with their stupidity.

[omegaman369]

@jaxter854 Look. I never watch these shows let alone vote. But, I watched all of his performances, some of them countless times. And much to my family's surprise I voted twice for Altiyan. Now that is a big undertaking on my part. From all the comments I have read, many people reacted in similar fashion to Altiyan's performances. Obviously we are all fools.

[jihsjh]

@omegaman369 I agree with this. I only watch these shows if someone seems to stand out from the beginning with raw talent and Altiyan did. His voice and stage presence is up there with the best of them and I can't wait until his own songs come out.

There is always going to be knockers of someone that is better than they are in every way, musn't have much going on in their own lives.

Anyway, go Altiyan.

[xxxJamiroguyxxx]

1:52 sorry altiyan, had to point it out...

[omegaman369]

@xxxJamiroguyxxx Great spotting Sherlock. I miss it every time I play this video. There are many here who are so engrossed with the high quality of his performance that they miss or overlook that minor detail. Some think it is not worth commenting on. Others think the cameraman got in his way and Altiyan slipped/tripped on a cable, and that he covered it very well while he continued to sing without missing a beat.

[xxxJamiroguyxxx]

@omegaman369 I seriously can't tell whether that comment was sarcastic or not.

[KayTarrant]

What a brilliant, beautiful man - I'm hooked!

[MJUSHERLOVER]

Thank God for Altiyan,a human who feels,cares and delivers music exactly how it should be. Anyone who knows music will connect and be mezmerised by him.People of all ages all around the world adore you !! You remind me of musicians like Mick Jagger, Bono and John Lennon.

Congratulations darling Altiyan and if anyone has anything negative to say about you it's only because they are jealous. So all you meanies be quiet and go find some peace. Love you so so so so so much Altiyan xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[jaxter854]

@MJUSHERLOVER Couldn't have said it better myself. Unfortunately there will always be people who have nothing better to do with their time other than to try to bring Altiyan down. As his success rises, they will try harder to break him. Michael Jackson was proof of that. Look what the media etc did to him. Just love Altiyan. If he was a drug then I'm addicted. While he performs, I can't look away, I can't talk, I almost forget to breathe. He really does have the X Factor.

[pipjmalt]

This is really good. :)

[rosefay9]

I can't wait to buy his cd "Somewhere in the World"... I love it!!! You're the best Altiyan!!! I love you!!!

[1bloodredheart]

Not a fan of this song - and so don't want Sony to represent Altiyan - please don't try to take away his rawness! Totally love Altiyan!

[Tessiaaa]

He is such a soulful, humble and beautiful man with distinctive movements and such a distinctive voice....and ooooo! when he hits those high notes with his trade mark roar, I get the goose bumps!!!......cant take my eyes of him....He Is Unique!!!!!............Love you Altiyan Childs....mwaaaaa!

[INTdc5]

ronan's face: "i'm going to be rich." LOL

[DBZ0wnz]

X-Factor is lame, all musical people go there.

you don't see anything cool/new because the media catches on to crappy singers.

[vnakrani]

I hope new rock music from him...!!

[omegaman369]

When Ronan lost James and Amanda he said prophetically, 'I only need one to win'.

And in Ireland, during the boot camp Altiyan said prophetically 'Australia better get ready for me, I am going to give them everything, from the heart'

[jaxter854]

I love Ronans face too. He's proud of Altiyan and he knows he deserved to win but at the same time, he's almost unable to believe that the one he fought so hard to keep in the competition has actually won it. Some of the others were good, Sally was great, but Altiyan is brilliant and he has it all. He's all over that stage and that's so much more interesting and entertaining to watch than someone just standing in one spot singing, no matter how good their voice is. Love you Altiyan.

[pokeywoop]

u guys r so dumb. Focus on the song not him tripping. Idiots

[asaw1994]

that was embarrassing

[aussieshellbell]

he truly amazing n deserve it

[TONGAN2144]

Did he trip?? If he did he did play it off pretty well

[jamzee9]

awesome!!!!

no one had faith in him at the start of the show and look at him now!

a true singer/rockstar :D

[01SuperGurrl]

We love you Altiyan childs, life seems so boring now.

Nothing to look forward to on Sunday, Monday, night.

[jaxter854]

Love Altiyan, so glad my high phone bill from voting for him paid off. Love this song, have already downloaded it but can't wait for an album from him. Altiyan had the look and stage presence right from his audition and I'm so glad Ronan saw the potential in him and fought for him. Altiyan is brilliant. He has the look of a rock star, the voice and he sure knows how to work that stage. I'm just so happy for him. He's such a beautiful quiet man off stage and loves his family. He deserved this win

[ChantellW0]

i wna tthis song =[

[tter85]

Have to say, I prefer this version to the studio version... just has so much more oomph live!!

[jerinawan]

amazing

[3moonwishes]

Altiyan is brilliant and he deserved to win this :) and Ronan's face of admiration at 2:18 -:2:21is totally priceless. You can tell how proud he is of Altiyan :)

[gapstead]

Well I will miss Ronan and Altiyan. I hope Ronan will find another contestant as good as Altiyan but this man is hard to beat. Altiyan in my opinion contributed a big deal to the shows massive rating. Can't imagine the show without these two.

Ronan is so gorgeous and so patient with Altiyan, without him there will be no Altiyan.

I will buy his album and Altiyan's album oh plus MJ's new album on sale next month. Another purse breaking huhuhu.....

[tiannahisawesome]

He is so crazy!! :) He has a really good voice, but he is going to kill himself on stage with those moves! LOL!! Ronan can't believe he won!!

[pokeywoop]

'shivers'

[pokeywoop]

shh and watch 

[pokeywoop]

His skip is ftw :P love it. Only hes legendary enough to pull off the unique things he does

[Diamonds7771]

Well done Altiyan I wish you all the best.. I will be buying your Cd's. Australia got it right for a change.

Ronan you are the best for believing in Altiyan...

[kmd1964]

Woo hoo well done Altiyan.....so deserved to win he is amazing! Altiyan said he wanted to win for Ronan who believed in him as much as for himself and how proud was Ronan :) I also love the song.

[choochooboogaloo]

I cant stop watching this video just to see the admiration on Ronan's face...Congratulations Altiyan you deserved to win and you needed a second chance to show the world what your made off. Good luck and i cant wait for your album.

[kitkat2267]

LOL. he falls and tries to cover it up with a retarded skip :)

[chopppacalamari]

freeze it at 2.53 when the light hits Ronans eyes. Looks like he's got a bit of angel in him.

[cvasek1]

12 months from now - lets see!

[danny020384]

this song is in my head now...what an inspiration!!!

[Serielle]

You're a champion Altiyan !!! LOVE YA !! =D

[KimboBROO]

I love him and I'm so glad he won. I voted for him :D

but is it just me, or did he trip at 1:50?

but its okay, he covered it up nicely by doing a few random skips immediately afterwards :L aw, bless him :)

[FaintVideos]

1 person wasn't falling in love for the first time.

[AFw3ndForU]

omg i cant describe how much he deserved it

I <3 u Altiyan childs

[MrStoneageman]

[Azilliant2]

[71dutch]

SIMPLY THE BEST

[holymolypink001]

So happy to see you win Altyan, you are an amazing performer! All the best for the future.

[rosefay9]

If a person is meant to be a Star, destiny will find a way to make him shine and become a star. Congratulations Altiyan! You're destined to be a Superstar! Somewhere in the World ... thru X Factor Australia and Mentor Ronan Keating, a Star is born and his name is ALTIYAN CHILDS! I love you!

[PrabaniLiyaz]

I LOVEE ALTIYANNN

[Haratio65]

i knew altiyan would win xfactor 2010

[HaiiNess101]

1:47 - 1:52 then retarded skipping. ;D Good cover up though.

[w4rrior94]

@HaiiNess101 lol, i cracked up so hard when he almost stacked it

[spiazo]

@HaiiNess101 imagine if he fell over tho.. would have been the biggest mood killer ever.. would have been on fail blog like THAT!

[tter85]

@HaiiNess101 Yeah he tripped on something, and tried to make it look intentional haha. SO happy he won!!! :D

[HypnotisedbyMcFLY]

@HaiiNess101 stupid camera men blocking him lol

[eblenn]

@HaiiNess101 Yep. Looks like he slipped.

[joejonas4lf]

[atam1988]

YOUR PERFORMANCE WAS SO CAPTIVATING ESP 'SOMEWHERE IN THE WORKLD'...like you took your listeners and viewers (including myself) on a trance...

YOU'RE GREAT!!!! THANK the LORD for your blessings (take note: I'm not that religious but FAITH + LORD AND FATE, factors of success).

[fonzy4u2c]

Altiyannnnnn <3

[atam1988]

Altiyan, you just proven taking that BIG LEAP OF SECOND CHANCE AND NOT TO LET IT GO: NEVER GIVE UP. NO WORDS CAN THANK RONAN KEATING for taking that second chance on you...believed since Day 1; but you have to believe in yourself first. Hope you'll remember always and look back where and who with you through your new journey of SUCCESS. Without them...you are nothing.
