Ryan didn't need to remind America that Simon passed on Taylor after his audition. The show kept emphasizing that after it happened. That's why Taylor won.
man this song is really good i sang this song at my graduation it is really good this song brings so much memories thank u talyor hicks for singing this song
you are sooooo wrong! first of all, he might not be a appealing cd seller buuut, he is defenitly the most appealing live performance artist in idol history. oh and ruben studdard is the worst idol winner ever. taylor hicks is the best performer ever in idol history right next to david cook. PERFORMER not singer ok
ya every idol winner is diff/unique, we can't always hav rockers win so it's kinda good that daughtry didn't win, taylor's songs since he's been on the show are actually pretty good, it's too bad they didn't just play them on the radio or something b/c he could be more successful
Please don't base his musicianship off of these silly Idol performances. He has more depth than appears. The radio thing is very complicated, much longer than I can write on a youtube comment. Let's just say, he didn't have any singles sent to top 40 radio & his album wasn't promoted at all when released. Something every single other Idol has had before. That's why the sales are crap. If he would have been supported as the Idol winner right, he could have had a John Mayer-ish type career.
for me taylor hicks deserve to be called the idol because you know its not only the projects or who is more appealing to the public like chris daughtry but i think he's more popular beacause of the type of song he sings and most young people now a days loves alternative or rock so maybe thats why chris is more popular but for me TAYLOR HICKS is AWESOME,he sings soulfully and it brings me chills when i heard him singing this song...
Hey has a new (old) CD coming out tuesday (8/12) exclusively at Target. It has songs that he actually wrote. But it's really a matter of taste. If you like songs that are like Chris, or Kat, or modern pop songs like Bleeding Love, and I Kissed a Girl, you probably won't *get* it. Taylor is a musician, and a performer. He makes the audience feel the song. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. And there's a lot of stuff you don't know about as to why you haven't heard him on the radio.
Lindy , you are and will always be the most amazing man I will ever meet. Thank you for the most wonderful 11 years of my life. RIP my love and always know, you do make me proud, proud to have been part of your life.
I've heard songs from everybody. And hey, he's fighting against all of those stereotyped "hip artists". By that I mean that all stars today are all young, sexy, curved, blonde, or what ever.
He's trying hard. And there are worst idols. Trust me, he isn't.
i love his motion when he sang the last "do i make you prooooud" part - the skillful head shaking. it's very impressive and just fits into his soulful singing style. what a great performer!

lol, i like this song, but he was and still is the biggest joke on American idol. Ever wonder why they do their best to exclude him or mention his name?
Because they do not want the same mistake that was this year.All because the old people voted him in cause of his gray hair and stupid "soul patrol". We see how far into superstardom the "Soul Patrol" skyrocketed his career. It Didn't! This is when the show started going downhill. Daugtry was robbed of the title of American idol this year. Guess that's why Daugtry is popular, and Taylor is not a blip whatsoever on the radar.
simon though that taylor won the first round with livin for the city and kat won the second round with somewhere over the rainbow so the show was tied until this point.simon thought taylor was better than kat in the final song round therefore he just won american idol
when taylor hicks auditioned simon didnt think he was good enough and didnt think he would make it in the finals but now look at him now he won americal idol
usually ppl agree w/simon...but that was certainly 1 of his biggest mistakes, passing on taylor hicks that early on, and not only did he do well in the competition, but he actually won! even tho. he is the least successful winner considering he's done nothing since, but still, great guy!
he's done nothing since AI? oh, my gosh, you must be joking!
there's not many thing to do for you to know what he's done after the idol. Just google him. compared to his numerous concerts and gigs with famous musicians today, winning AI was nothing. it surely bring him the fame though.
ok, i didn't no, i don't follow up w/concerts, etc., all i no is music vids (vh1/gac) and wut i hear on radio/future AI season performances and most of the other AI5 finalists i've heard on the radio...but i could be wrong abt him having radio time too, idk
but after i watched this performance and basically after i heard the way he deliver the message of the song, i even more love the song!! Thanks be to Hicks!
