  • good...one of few contestants that could sing MJ's song with his own style and did it well...

  • i love you Danny!!! i know you should have won. I Love you allen but danny was amazing!!! Stay strong danny. xoxo

  • The guy is awesome. I'm gonna have to try throwing a little vibraphone into this song to see if it works. Great song and Mr. Gokey hats of to you buddy for doing such a nice job with this.

    Regards,

    Angel Robledo

  • for me this was the only memorable performance of the season. It was half funny half awesome. a white suburban dude singing the king of pop... and pulling it off. great vocals.

  • thats a "Whao" good stuff --- think I'll hit replay ---- again thanks for posting this one!!!

  • danny! where are you! This song-your version is SOOOO good! A person has to dance. Your vocals are outstanding...Lets see more of you on tour!!

  • He is an incredible vocalist.

  • ahh he song this today at the concert at my school my fav it was teh one i knew the words 2!

  • Comment removed

  • Danny is AMAZING!!! He totally should've won. I'm upset hes doing country now. =(

  • I agree with you=[

  • Great rendition of a great song - Way to go Danny G !

  • He reminds me so much of Michael McDonald.... fantastic soulful voice x

  • a little awkward on the verses... but he dominated the chorus ..nice

  • i really enjoyed this. he sang this song really good

  • this sounds a bit Taylor Kicks-ish. >_>

  • i meant Taylor Hicks-ish (excuse the typo, it's dark!)

  • he is great but he's a douche ;) lol i love gokey , he's amazing . :D

  • why do u think hes a douche wackydude1992? do u know him? u shouldnt judge those u dont know!

  • He was gr8, soo energetic .x

  • D BAG!!!

  • Yeah... u are Qdrum... I am amazed that you admit it. If you hadn't called it to our attention, we might not have noticed that you are.

  • I don't get y u just called yourself a D bag. Wat did u wanna get attention. Danny is amazing, way to incredible to be a D bag so i know thats not for him

  • I love MJ.. And Danny does this song amazingly. <3

  • this is one of my favorite michael jackson week performances. he did good, but he was better live. alison, that grace girl(sorry), kris, lil did well. i ♥ adam but he got WAY TOOO MUCH praise for his version of black or white. it was just a hot mess.

    rip michael jackson

    king of pop

    1958 - 2009

  • one of my favourite song!!

    let's not compare to MJ..

    but he sure has a great vocal! great performance!!

    d(^_^)b

  • TENDERONI!

  • im sorry but i dont like it oh well ...

  • me either mj all the way

  • Immitation is the greatest type of flattery. Michael was great at any song, Danny's version does it justice and let's Michael's music live on. Danny rocks it!!

  • No-one can beat Mjs version obviously but I must say, this is one heck of a version! I love it. What a voice he has! :)

  • This Is Good :)

    But No One Is Better Then Michael

    Love Youu Michael - R.I.P PYT xx

  • This is pretty good!!! Not as good as the original but it's cool!! It's great how he's paying respect to the greatest musician ever!!

  • Boy U Betta Fuckin Sang!!!!!!!!

  • Wow , i was just looking at this picture and realize that Danny must have some pretty strong thigh muscles to be in that pose.. looks like a magician sitting on air. .( j/k i know it is because of a still shot ) I just read on the AI boards that Danny is getting a mega hugh reception everywhere he goes on tour. So glad to see there are so many lovely people in the world who truly appreciate this lovely man.

  • he needs to work on his pronunciation lol

  • no way danny's perfect but micheals was way better

  • I was never a fan, but met him the other night in Oakland and he was one of the kindest and most humble.

  • How is it that good singers never win the whole thing. XD

  • i love this guy. he has a great voice.

    :]

  • amazing rendition, and now an amazing tribute to the late, great MJ.

  • NICE!!i got all his sons and play them again and again every day!!

  • Yay I like it! RIP Wonderful MJ!

  • THIS IS MY DANCE SONG.

    I <3 IT.

  • He should have won

  • I couldn't agree more!

  • SAMME.

  • agreed

  • You should have got to the finals at least but oh well u rock Danny!!!!!!!!

  • You go Danny! he is so not "clumsy" when he dances! lol

  • I really dig this song, but I love EVERY song by Danny. He even made me start to like Endless Love, which I had always thought of as a silly teen song...but with the emotion he packed into it and his sexy voice...I couldn't stop myself from buying that one, too from itunes. Got all his songs and play them every day! All the time! Turning everyone I know onto Danny! That's my mission!

  • I thought this performance was great. I liked his fast songs a lot actually.

  • in order who shouldve won 1st danny 2nd alison 3rd kris 4th adam i HATE ADAM LAMBERT HE SUCKS GO DANNY AND ALISON

  • yeah.. not sure why all the hype with that guy. Sometimes his vocals were just ear piercing?!

  • xD,,

  • danny should have won he was the best

  • I completely agree with you and I will give u a thumbs up. Rudeness that ppl will minus u. The top 5 this season were all good but they didn't finish in the right order. Order should have been: 1) Adam, 2) Danny (this could also be Allison but there was no way 2 rockers were going to go into the top 2), 3) Allison, 4) Kris, and 5) Matt

    (This list is based on live performances more so than studios but I think the studio order would be the same except Matt would probably be higher.)

  • we all have issues and weaknesses , danny is a christian and the only thing that should be coming from our mouthes are incouraging words , thats what the bible says .

  • what do u mean?

  • Comment removed

  • psycho.

  • how did you lose to kris allen and adam lambert

  • Whenever I listen to your music, Danny, you remind me of the top caliber singers. Whether your rendering an upbeat music or ballad demonstrates your soul and passion into what you love to do- singing. Your a class on your own! Your such a fantastic and wonderful singer!

  • Danny, you have a fantastic voice! I would buy this! Wish you all the best.

  • DANNY GOKEY FOREVER . . . .

  • Dear commenters that is not satisfied with the result of Kris won... JUst accept it already... Actually it doesnt metter who won.... The only thing to win is having lots n lots n lots of fans... N this shows that Kris has it!!! So, Dont be an idiot n creat chaos bout them.... No offence :P

  • I still didn't like it. I love Michael Jackson way too mych to like him.

  • Awesome Danny. His voice gives me chills, and makes me hot at the same time. He makes you want to get up and dance, laugh, shout, sing, squeal....

  • he did a good job, mucho energy.

    i like the original better tho.

  • Danny's got the complete package, this fella has got quality...................love you dawg

  • this last message has nothing about this song keep it 2 urself

  • Danny Gokey is MY American Idol. I plan on buying his CD when it comes out. He should have won!

  • this is my mamas american idol i liked him too he should of been in the finale with adam, because last time i checked it was a singing competition and the two best singers were him and adam period idc what kris fans have to say its the truth, his voice isnt strong enough to do songs like this like danny can but oh well america let taylor hicks win before

  • I agree with your Mom; I think he should have won. He'll be like Daugherty [who came in third on AI] and do better than Kris or Adam. I love love love Him! He is the best!

  • Oh my goodness Danny you are an American Idol!!!

  • This guy should have WON!!!! He has a truly nice voice..

  • DANNY GOKEY WAS THE BEST CONTESTANT OF SEASON 8!!!

    He is massively talented! His voice is just amazing and he doesn't have to try too hard to be good 'coz he's just naturally great! He sings from the heart and establishes a bond with the audience, you can just feel it! Not to mention, he's a genuinely nice and humble guy!

    GO DANNY GOKEY! I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOUR ALBUM AND I'LL BE FOLLOWING YOUR CAREER!

    GO DANNY GOKEY!!! GO!!!

  • Geez People

    DON'T VOTE!

    If you really love Danny, make a point and make this the worst finale EVER!

    Don't convert to Adam or Kris (well you can convert to Allison just cuz she actually has raw talent even though we sent her home, which is another goof-up)!

    !!!!SUPPORT DANNY BY NOT VOTING!!!!!

    Just let Adam win and get this season over with...It sucked overall anyway.

  • kris is talking it home <333

  • To me, the Adam/Kris just cements Adam Lambert being the new Idol. I am gonna be pissed as hell if Kris gets it. Adam innovates EVERY NIGHT!

  • DANNY FANS: PROVE A POINT, AND VOTE FOR KRIS. ADAM FANS HAVE BASHED DANNY TO THE GROUND, AND R NOW PRETENDING TO HAVE LIKED HIM, OR, R POSTING NOT TO VOTE AT ALL. THEY R PLAYING GAMES HERE, BUT PLEASE DONT FALL FOR THAT. Vote for Kris, and prove the judges and producers that they have been wrong. And silence the lying Adam fans. SO PLEASE VOTE FOR KRIS. THANK YOU.

  • wow. doing it to get back at adam fans?

    you do relize that this is a competion on

    TALENT. not 'getting back at someone'

    but hey, if you wanna vote for someone

    who will end up not doing much, go

    ahead.. but we all KNOW who should win.

    just remember.. in the end, it will come

    back at bite cha, karmas a bitch ;)

    THANK YOUU. (:

  • good song... SHIT voice

  • I think Danny deserved top 2 more than Kris, but it doesn't matter. Adam will be crowned king. The top three were all great singers.

  • It should be between Danny and Adam =/ Kris should hav gone home, not Danny!!

    but Adam is going to win, he better win!!! they all were great singers but adam and danny had something more special

  • yeah, kris's voice is good, but compared to danny? danny is waaay better !

    i mean like, there's nothing on kris's voice that really can impressed me

    if the final is like , adam vs danny, i'll vote for danny,

    but ADAM VS KRIS? OH COME ON!

    adam's voice is waaay better ! please, even I am the teenage girl, i really don't think that kris is cute or even handsome --'

  • Danny is amazing, he should have been in the top two. Kris is boring, i dont know what simon was thinking

  • i know.

    kris is so freaking ordinary.

    he wears like a white shirt n jeans every performance.

    i would def rather danny over kris.

    i think kris just has all the teenage tweets voting for him.

  • Comment removed

  • The final four on American Idol 2009 were each good enough to win the title. Allison, Danny, and Adam have instantly recognizable unique voices. Chris is sometimes very good. Allison was easily the best of the girls. Adam is a crazy talent. But, when I view this performance by Danny (PYT) I'm blown away! He gets my vote.

    Can't wait for the summer tour to hit my neighborhood.

  • I believe with all of my heart that Danny should have been the winner. Yes, both Adam and Kris can sing, but the cold heard facts are that Kris talented as he is got to the final 2 because of his looks. Adam is already a professional and he has had many years of traning and therefore an unfair advantage.

  • i wanted him to win but he got voted off . Listen to this song and you will feel that he is the winner. SO TAKE THAT VOTERS

  • Danny is amazing! It's really sad and unfair that he got voted off. It's because a ton of girls think Kris is cute. Well, news flash- American Idol is about ability to make a song suit your voice, singing that song-and performing- it well. Danny and Adam should have been the top two. I've been a fan of Danny's since the auditions, and he has an amazing voice. Everyone vote for Adam now! I'd hate to see Kris win because of looks. So what if Adam is gay? HE CAN SING! (he's 2nd to Danny ,though)

  • hey if you didnt like him tatiana, then yd u put him as 1 of ur videos? STUPID mikehasflow is so right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • DANNY FANS:ADAM FANS HAVE ALWAYS HATED AND BASHED DANNY, AND R NOW PRETENDING TO LIKE HIM. THEY R LIARS AND TWISTED. Adam has always the biased-favortism-reason why everyone else has left. You want to make things fair? THEN LETS VOTE FOR KRIS TO WIN. ITS ONLY FAIR. Kris deserves it, like the others did.

  • & uhm, whats FAIR is letting the one win

    who wants it the most. idol doesnt give

    adam the things he uses in his perform.

    he has to tell ppl that he wants to use

    fog , etc. NONE of the other contestants

    want it like adam does.

  • Adam gets special camera angles(the camera crew R experts, and should best every Idol), the judges play mind tricks with everyone but Adam, the producers tell other media to promote Adam over all, and the judges focus too much on Adams ridiculous dress:its NOT that appealing, but the judges say that even Adams farts are cool. This is favortism, unfair, dishonest, irresponsible and dishonorable. It has been a big joke on all the Idols except Adam. Adam is a tinsel vision, a delirium. NothingMore

  • oooh, so you are backstage when they

    are rehursing and you hear them swooning

    over adam? really? haha. NO. you have

    no clue. stop acting like you know it all.

    and no, its not unfair, this is a show on

    talent might i remind youu. not on who

    gets the most attention. if you dont like

    idol, dont watch it. nobody asked u too.

  • That's why Adam won, right? Oh wait.

  • Danny is amazing. He will be the one from this season that will succeed. No one else can sing like him. Adam is a screamer, Kris is ok, but Danny, what a voice. You have so many fans Danny. Keep singing because we want to hear it!

  • Danny was dumped because Simon hyped Kris..but Kris was never a strong contender...and how the finale will be flat. Danny could have given a great contrast to Adam..both have strong voices. Kris? I'm not seeing it. Nice season, Danny

  • Woah, why the heck did he get booted off anyways? Oh, yea, ppl liked Kris better, hmph, yea, right. This is a brilliant song for him, he sounds like a powerful singer in this song.

  • Yes that's what I think too!

    ):

    Danny is the awesome-ness.

  • wow how does he get voted off! fucking kris made it cuz of the fucking girls voting.... danny was my favoirie since his auditon

  • His voice is amazing. His voice sort of like explodes on the high notes. AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • his voice is killer...its incredible, sounds soooo goood!

  • i think hes hot anyway I LOVE U DANNY UR MY IDOL!!

  • It should have been Danny and Adam in the finals NOT Kris...WHO in their right mind would choose somebody as entertaining as wallpaper over Danny? Seriously, I think Adam deserves to win over Kris and I'm definitely voting for Adam...but Danny and Adam were good competition for one another...they are the only ones who had passion in what they do...they should demand a re-vote....Anyway, in the least vote for Adam over Kris...no way that Kris deserves to win this period.

  • Nice description..."entertaining as wallpaper". I could not possibly agree more.

  • love him soo much chris allen should have gone home like seriously!!!

  • i agree. im so pissed danny went home. :[

  • Comment removed

  • no dude, i completely agree, kris did horrible tuesday. and people just hate danny because hes older and has that older music to him. i think danny is fantastic, and i love his voice.

  • Danny will for sure make it in the album sales!!! His recording voice in studio is the best....

  • final two I mean

  • What an amazing talent, very rare authentic r&b soulful voice, especially for a white man, I think even though he didnt make it in the final three, he will out sell all the previous idols!!!  Another Daughtery case, America voted for the underdogs??

  • Matt and Danny are my favorites this year.

    Alexis Grace was robbed!

  • so, how does it feel that danny "mongoloid" donkey will go home tonight? LOL

  • lol if u arent too scared, look up that link that i gave u. and then when u come back, u can owe me that apology.

  • idolopinons: you obviously dont know the difference between stating ur opinion and dissing ppl so let me tell u the real difference: stating ur opinon is saying the true facts, which i am doing, and knowing the truth bout that person, dissing ppl is when u dont have the true facts, u say things based on wut u think, or wut u want to be true, but that doesnt make it true just cuz ur saying it. and u obviously, are posting shit that u cant back up.

  • idolopinions:y am i a fucking bitch? cuz i said my opinion bout danny? ur obviously immature and stupid if u come on here just to diss him. and yes there is a line between saying ur opinion and dissing ppl-and wut ur doing is called dissing! and how exactly is sticking up for danny on his youtube when ppl diss him being disrespectful? plz do explain. and yes i can link this video. go to the search on youtube and search danny gokey fox 6 and it should say danny gokey fox 6 interview.

  • Damn Glambert, you just love Danny's videos don't you? you sure do comment them a lot. your opinion really doesn't matter to us Danny fans...so your wasting your time. But keep hating on Danny it only encourages us to vote more ;)

  • I LOVE DANNY GOKEY!

    along with Milwaukee and many other cities and states around the U.S.

    hes probably got the most talent on the show this whole year.

    [between him and allison]

    but he should really take this home.

  • glambert182 you are in need of medical help//try using your other hand you are cutting blood supply off to both heads

  • who fucking cares. she is in hell right now. and he will leave tomorrow to join her at their hell paradise LOL

  • danny gokey is a hero, not to make a big thing out of the thing that happend w/ his wife, but i still love him so MUCH cuz he has a raspyness that i like and he definetly did it really well, i hope that he wins and i can't wait for the top 10 summer tour!

  • Danny got into the top 3 because of his talent not because of his wife passing away... all of America loves him because of his voice... his story is sad and insipirational..... how would you feel if you had the love of your life pass away while so young?? I love you Danny and i'll be voting for you every week... <3

  • You rock :)

    Thanks for sticking up for this brilliant talent.

    I will be voting for him like crazy next week!

    Spread the Gokey love, friends <3

  • last week i voted for him like 30 times!!!!!!

  • Dang you suck. even after the screech!

  • he is all karaoke, what a douche lol

  • Peace kids, listen to the tune and get HAPPY! such an awesome song, his voice fits perfect with it

  • hahahaha you all suck, youre fighting on a youtube video

    chill out

  • idolopinion:"shut the fuck up bitch! you pulled that shit out of ur ass"

    actually, its a video on youtube and danny said all that stuff on it. its the video danny gokey fox 6. and i am only a bitch when i need to be ,especially with dumbass losers like urself! ur just mad cuz u know im saying the truth and u cant take it! too bad, so sad, pathetic loser!

    idolopinions: ur the one i see posting "bogus shit"bout danny when u dont know shit! i think u should practice wut u preach dumbass!

  • it is officially 'danny gokey day' here in milwaukee! ya!

  • RE: 'sympathy' thing. Think. Can you even imagine WHAT Danny went thru? HOW can Danny just drop the whole thing about his WIFE? People - we have become WAY too hardened from watching DRAMA on TV. This REAL LIFE. A young beautiful woman really DIED. And here we sit discussing the merits of this and whether it's a TURN-OFF? Americans are really beginning to SUCK, imo. WHERE IS OUR HUMANITY or CHRISTIANITY? i give up.... Next time you have a tragedy, do you want your friends to RATE it? Thx

  • Uhhh, who's naive? LOL. The producers want STORIES because they're goal is GOOD TV. Duh. They have people talk to these kids so as to try and get some kind of angle on them. Some story that they can follow and grab the audience with.Then they take it and run with it. That's how it works, my dear. It's called editing and it's all about getting viewers hooked on the cast.

    Btw, reading the rest of your comment to the other poster - you've got a serious problem.

  • Why is it so hard to find actual videos this year??? It's freakin' RIDICULOUS!!

  • corrie girl, what the heck about his ring??? WHO CARES! Life is for the Living, omg!!

  • Some people are idiots.

  • I love Danny not because of "sympathy" but because he is everything a true idol should be. A gentleman, someone with personality, someone with a good heart, and someone who can sing and let all the emotions out. When Danny sings he has passion and so much dedication. So sure, Adam Lambert may win but Danny has something more than Adam and some people are too blind to realize it.

  • I honestly do not understand how danny has lasted this long. I am sorry I just don't see it.

  • Well, he can sing for one thing. Everyone who hears him, including the mentors and judges, agrees that he is extremely gifted vocally and emotionally connects to the songs he sings and the audience. Sooo...there's that.

  • EXACTLY!!!!

  • gokey: stright out of miltown. represent

  • id rather not win, but be successful than to win on sympathy vote and fail. those are words from danny gokeys mouth on the youtube video danny gokey fox 6! so get ur facts right before u post untrue shit!

  • danny: and i quote:" i went through intial phase while going throught the competition. but there was a point where i let go of some things toxic emotions,bitterness,things that were poisoning life. i held on to her but i let go of the things that were eating away at my life. what i hope ppl can understand is ive been given hope, so now i want to give hope to ppl. sympathy vote can make me win this competition, but then i fail as a performer.

  • idolopinons: if u watch danny gokey fox 6 danny states "ppl think hes trying to get a sympathy vote and they couldnt be more wrong. when my wife passed, i didnt want to live anymore.i literally hated life, i went through an intential phase even through the competition in the beginnning. there was a point when i let go of some things,bitterness, things that were poisoning life. i let go of her but i let go of the things that were eating away at my life. hang on theres more...

  • The hell he's not. until last night he never wore his wedding ring. Always slow love songs. Sympathy vote playing ass he is.

  • VOTE FOR DANNY!!

    1866-436-5705

  • danny Gokey is sweet. i love his singing.

    it's awesome. i love it.

    adam is good but he is a performer. so

    danny should WIN.

    .

  • Gokey is a soulful Michael McDonald with clearer enunciation! Danny you ROCK...love that rasp!

  • Umm that's crazy that u would be turned off by Danny b/c he's had some difficult things come in his path. That's very wierd. I wish Danny the best of luck but I would like to see Adam win b/c he's the cream of the crop!!!!!!!

  • I prefer Danny over Adam, because he is more believable when he sings a love ballad. Everyone knows Adam is gay, and that is a huge turn off to me.

  • Adam is being judged for his talent not his lifestyle. He is extremely talented. " I could write about Danny He is getting sympathy votes because of his wife and that .he is also part of the ultra conservative christian right and they all vote for him based on that not his talent or lack thereof." And I am sure you would be offeended. Neither should be judged by their lifestyle only on their merits as a singer and performer. I feel Adam will go far whether or not he wins this contest.

  • Adam should also sing the song "Good Times Gonna Come" by Aqualung. He would ROCK that song. Perfect fit for his voice. NOT a POPULAR SONG, but YouTube it (with lyrics). Its an amazing song!!

  • Comment removed

  • lol. one snarky comment on his dancing and his fans are going apeshit. he's not perfect and he moves badly, why watch someone look so akward? this is what you STANS (super fans) need to understand: i enjoy danny's singing, i own his tracks, i'd just rather listen than watch. stop worshipping him like he can do no wrong.

    lol. i think danny gokey could shit on stage and plenty of his fans here would praise it, "HE CAN SHIT LIKE NO OTHER!!!" this isnt "SHIT IDOL" or "DANCING WITH SHIT!!"

  • Not sure where you are going on that one. He is some singer from a blue collar sheet metal plant area in Milwaukee. He sings pretty good. He moves average. It is a production...a tv show. he is doing pretty good. Lambert is doing well. They are having the time of their life on a tv show...not reality. So enjoy yourself and enjoy singers..performers doing what they do?

  • i'm saying i enjoy his singing with my eyes closed. meaning his dancing is bad. and yes it is my opinion but damn you guys were flippin out like he is a god or something.

  • Adam is good, but he is a performer. That wont translate well on a cd...he belongs on stage.

  • I happen to dig danny's dancing. He always looks like he's having fun and it makes me smile seeing that. Besides that, he and his singing are just SUPERFINE! PYT!

  • well it's a good thing that he's not competing on "so you think you can dance" what does dancing have anything to do with it?

  • This is really, really good!!!!!!

    The intro is crappy as hell though! (That should not have happened on a studio cut!)
