[Majindom]

Great voice, empty expression in his face, though

[20newman10]

@Majindom When i was taking singing lessons your taught to not be moving your fake like the likes of frankie and most of the other singers on it, thats from a classical teacher though but im pretty sure all the constipated expressions arent good for your singing you know :)

[RubzVigorous]

heyy- can you be my maths teacher!!

[lonmar0612]

I still cannot believe the judges did not even take him to judges houses, and to think that Frankie -crackhead- Cocozza and James -who is he- Michael got through to live shows

[jodie1122]

i want him as my maths teacher

[dkhibs]

No John we are not okay, we are paralysed by your cuteness

[MizzFiona1]

[MegaTrixel]

I love the slight rasp and waver in his voice :)

[chchchchchcharlotte]

i wish my maths teacher did that every lesson. and looked like that. and was him.

[ChloeMarieFletcher]

I prefer this to Little mix's version any day. 

[LouisCarrot]

Yes, he is amazing but so are Little Mix so stop being horrible. They all did well. So did Aiden Grimshaw.

[TheDharmawheel]

he's got a james blunt quality to his voice. : )

[Imyournewpeppep]

@TheDharmawheel he looks like a james blunt

[TheDharmawheel]

@Imyournewpeppep if thats rhyming slang then that comment is full of win and i have to concur ; )

[Imyournewpeppep]

@TheDharmawheel twas rhyming slang

[neeceeylovesAidenG]

Him and Aiden Grimshaw are the only ones (apart from the original) to do this justice.

[tolu1567]

@neeceeylovesAidenG lil' mix???

[neeceeylovesAidenG]

@tolu1567 I don't think that they sung the song well, no where near as well as Aiden or John did! But that is only my opinion

[tolu1567]

@neeceeylovesAidenG its ok but every1 has there opinion

[boomdaboomboomful]

@tolu1567 they cant :(

[bananapuddingish]

He's soooooooooooo unbelievably GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! <3

[xxgemmaxx08xx]

mmm he's too hot!

[MissMoNkEy2442]

He sounds amazing!! He's a bit like Craig Colton! xx <3

[claramaybe11]

what a sexy maths teacher!

[ClaireyThePinkFairy]

@claramaybe11 if he was my maths teacher i would have done better in maths

[sparklestarsx]

The fact this is not the winners single determines the fact i'm not watching x factor next year. you are so much better than most of the finalists :'). become famous so i can buy your album :D

[xxprincessjohnnyxx]

he definitely sung it better than little mix...how the heck did he not get to the live shows?...

[lolx410]

he should be signed.

[caitlinyendle]

he use to teach mee:D!!<3XX

[Jorro47]

wow wish he was my maths teacher when i was at school lol ;)

[jeessiccaax]

I saw him live in November. He sang this and it was beautiful! I teared up! John your voice is amazing! You will go far! :) Also managed to get a wave from him and it was one of the best moments of my life :') Thank You John!

[maxiGB3]

hey, you're James Blunt!

[eminemswhore]

i'd love it if this got put on itunes and beat little mix on the charts hehe

[aamnaali34]

he's a hot math teacher.

[dudey212]

i bet tulisa contastavlos loves this audition because she likes him and her little 'muffins' as she callled them (little mix) won singing this

[ilovelikehemmings]

he is sexy and amazing

[LucyFalvey]

<3

[13themuse]

sophie habibis should have sang that

[demdemdemdems]

i met him yesterday he's so sweet and his voice sounds even better live! <3

[xKatSmithx]

Love Dermot singing along :3

[Dana102705]

Go Mr. Adams! Not fair that he never got trough! He's not shouty in maths by the way. He's my fave teacher!!!

[Ryanlaskey]

such a homophobic comment gary, he's clearly gay!

[Dana102705]

@Ryanlaskey

So what if he talks like in a high pitched voice. That doesn't stop him from being my fave teacher! So stop calling him gay. Ur gay.

[Ryanlaskey]

@Dana102705 eh? i am gay, so fail on that account. So what if he has a high pitched voice, did I mention his voice? He is very camp, hence why he's gay! idiot.

[Dana102705]

@Ryanlaskey

Me idiot? More like you

[Ryanlaskey]

@Dana102705 noooooo im not the one that replied to like 10 comments screaming he was your teacher. Attenion seeking much?

[Dana102705]

@Ryanlaskey

Screaming? Err FAIL

[Ryanlaskey]

@Dana102705 Great comeback.

[Dana102705]

@Ryanlaskey

Lol is that meant to be a sarcastic comment?

[cerileedsfan]

@Ryanlaskey he is not gay, he has a girlfriend who was in miss wales, they been together for 3 years and live together as well. think u owe the person who said he wasn gay an apology!! judging somebody on what you think is gay, absolute joke!

[Ryanlaskey]

@cerileedsfan im gay. I owe no one an apology.

[cerileedsfan]

@Ryanlaskey well yes you do, u said clearly john is gay. well clearly he isn! just because ur gay n think he is doesnt actually make him gay! you think if he reads things saying he's gay when he isn he'll be ok with it, its not nice brandishing people inaccurately!!!

[Ryanlaskey]

@cerileedsfan why would he be upset? whats wrong with being gay!? There are worse things in the world to be thought of rather than gay!!! Next time you try to defend someone, try not to MASSIVELY piss off someone else. Take your small minded comments somewhere else. Youtube is no place for homophobia!

[gavinlowndes]

Aiden Grimshaws was the best version !

[acyrox2426]

I saw him in Cardiff! and I so think his is the best version by far - better than the original and LM and Marcus (though I like Marcus!) I still CANNOT believe he wasn't put through. :(

[1DirectionLver]

stupid ass judges not putting him through bootcamp... :@

[maktubam]

02:25 min, what she is trying to say?)))

[DaisysMusic7]

asdfghjkl i got so angry when he got sent home

[missdee2345]

he can teach me anyday ;)

[ChellyBaby100]

My Friend Has MET Him & Spoke To Him On The Phone And I Was With Her<3 ILOVEHIM<3

[Dana102705]

@ChellyBaby100

He's my teacher. Nothing to be screaming about.

[MrEndomorph]

He looks like an action man? Good singer though (Y).

[chioma231]

Why didn't he go through to the live shows??????????

[56789Bored]

Well, Mr Adams, see, I'm really struggling with Math right now, I tihnk I might need some extra support in lessons ;)

[fallkripta]

@56789Bored me 2!!!!!

[WelshBabe1995]

Wouldn't mind maths if he was the teacher ;)

[laurenlouise2300]

[Dana102705]

[katiebear1998]

[Dana102705]

@Sophie54321ful

[Mmadeforhim]

[Dana102705]

@Mmadeforhim

[finbar778]

favourite version of this song, <3 john adams he was amazing and deserved to go so much further than bootcamp

[NiaaCaitlin]

I'm so glad he was my teacher...He was epic aswell!

[xXxGreenEyedGirlxXx]

@NiaaCaitlin LUCKY.

[BehindTheLense123]

AMAZING.

[ILoveDoodlingX]

Can't believe Frankie got further than him ha! What a joke :L

[ChinkBlink8D]

why on earth did he get kicked out? -_-

[WixNixRox]

He was so good! Don't know why he didn't get through to the live shows...

And he sounds a bit like James Blunt sometimes =D

[ScottishHardstylez]

prob shouldnt write this on my brothers name but damnnnnnn!

[mrslicknic]

this audition is better than both the finalist's versions !!

[theonearmedbandit1]

John Adams is so awsome.

[backstageanne]

@theonearmedbandit1 I totally agree with u ^_^

[theonearmedbandit1]

I thought the judges were chosen because they are professionals and know what they're doing. So why did these morons pick Frankie? Brilliant choice that was!!! What is Damien doing now? I so hope he has a record contract. What a fabulous voice in a lovely young man.

Xfactor obviously prefers scum bags like Frankie!!!

[HaxPain]

I feel sorry for Damien...

[Undocorkscrew25]

See, this isn't a bad version of the song(minus the James Blunt vocals on occasion). Those girls absolutely trashed it.....

[zainandzoeforever]

He was amazing! :) we didnt he get through!

[mulusonic]

and HE didn't even make it to judge's houses??? He and Jade Richards were ROBBED!!

[sparklestarsx]

This should be the winners single!! :)

[BeckieGx]

now we know why he didnt get through.. they couldn't have him singing the winners song twice:L

[charleygower]

John is my winner. This version blows the original and Little mixes out of the water.

Why was this not referred to on The Extra Factor. What's going on !!!

[GreenMaserati71]

i made bootcamp...wheyy!! :D john for X factor 2k12

[chloexox0311]

y did they put time wasters like frankie and jonny robinson through when there was this suoerstar stood right infront of them!!

[IsabelSotelo]

i'd like him to help me with my math.

[loveformusic321]

HOW DID HE NOT GET THROUGH BOOTCAMP?! my heart was breaking when i saw him still standing in the line D: </3

[laughylolly]

He sings it better than Little Mix and Marcus!

[diamondlover17]

@laughylolly (gasp) no he does not how dare you say that!!!!!!

[zeldaxlove56]

@laughylolly No he does not Little Mix are Amazing

[clo806]

Hot Teacher x and amazing voice x



[HannahRachaelLong101]

he answers questions so quickly

[laMusicFreakk]

[OfficialCN]

please LOOK at my cover on my page! would mean a lot :) thanks

[Milozation]

Wow he's good and he sounds kinda like James blunt :D

[alisonmaccallumx]

hot+welsh= <3

[ChristopherHeward]

His mate doesn't know whether to cry or to knock someone out...!

[kyritryfonos]

he sounds like old greg.......

[BoyCarTown]

His a really good singer, I should watch x-factor more, now I know what I'm missing

[aadaak]

Great song. Should only be sung my someone with a soulful voice, both finalists did a rubbish job and i hope Simon Cowell is ashamed of himself for choosing such a song for a teenage urban girl group, crazy! This guy did a good job, but nothing hugely special, there are many guys out there who could sing this song properly. The winners of x factor were good and fun I suppose, but such a mistake giving them this song.

[BrionyBond123]

LOL DERMOT, whats goin on..

[YasminaRazzouk]

Dermot O'Leary at 1:11 :D

[RobynWithoutBatman]

i prefer this version of the winners song ! he should of been in that final

[helawyeemito]

2:25...fuck yeah

[thebeification]

i want to re-study mathematics! XX

[sundial040]

its complete bollocks, better than both finalists, the pubic are stupid, only seem to want carbon copies of each other

xxxx

[cricball1]

Love Little Mix But this is a much better version :)

[newyorkdelirium]

Omg be my maths teacher..

[newyorkdelirium]

HE'S CUTE

[sparklestarsx]

Why are you not singing this in the final... oh well come be my maths teacher :)

[p6subhrap]

wow!! beautiful

[utcclrules]

I hate Maths very much but DAMN if only I have this cool teacher.

[Rwenzori96]

Woooow. If he was my maths teacher, I would LOVE maths! And WHY did he not get further?!?!
