BLAKE LEWIS : LOVE SONG

[BrokenHome1987]

Too sweet for words :D

[HopelessDaydreamer55]

@yowuzzuptheavenger I didn't mean repeat the song, I meant repeat doing the beatboxing. it worked the first time, but he did it again and it just didn't have the same affect as "You Give Love A Bad Name" did. I love his beatboxing in his original songs, but when you only have a minute and a half to sing you need to SING when it comes to Idol. I think that's part of what hurt him. The other part is that they wouldn't let him alter the winning song any, and it was better suited to Jordin's voice.

[SavagePersonified90]

Blake always had the coolest clothes, I wish i could find that shirt cuz it was hot!!

[HopelessDaydreamer55]

@DrummingHero3 Agreed. he rocked it on "You Give Love a Bad Name" but after that it seemed like he just kept trying to repeat that and it never worked out as well. it was a one time masterpiece. after that everything was like cheap imitation... No offense to him. I do also agree that he should have won :)

[ozzfan1979]

He makes me tingly.

[RHCPa7x]

Love that Blake Lewis sang this song! The cover 311 did is great. This is indeed, 311's version Blake sang. Not The Cure.

[Napuaiolana]

i love 311's version a lot! I love the reggae vibe I think he could've pulled off their version better. Especially with the beat boxin'

[naitch4life]

there is only one version of this song the CURE period

[xxloveblakelewisxx]

This man is so amazing.

He's

*Hot

*Sweet

*Amazing Singer

*Amazing in person

And much more.

He should have won... Not Jordin... There are to many singers like Jordin. That sound just like her. But Blake is original.

[foxysquerl]

u are so right i was like what when they said JORDAN SPAKS i was like FUCK NO thats not right but what ev lol jordan sparks u suck lol go blake lewis

[MrsYamin44]

@xxloveblakelewisxx i totally agree

[maheen031495]

it doesnt matter whether it was 311 or The Cure what matters is he sang it amazingly!

[xoxoaznshortiee]

"thats pretty" :)

i agree <3 hahaha that was really....pretty :)

[AirVaughan]

speaking of taking credit for someone else's work-it wasn't 311 who originally wrote it. It was the Cure, dude.

[SkankinDevil89]

yeah dont give him credit for originality it was 311. i cant believe he just sat there and took credit, for someone elses work

[ahffk]

umm not rly...he got permission from 311 and hes in fact rly good friends with nick hexum.

for some reason they edited out the part where he said it was 311's version of "Love Song" by the Cure

and if u want to call him that, david cook never gave credit to doxology or any other band's arrangements he used except for chris cornell

even david archuletas version of imagine was this legendary female vocalists version,and ppl just use others versions (with permission) all the time

[srgiants16]

@ahffk ur mostly right about cook, except he also gave whitesnake credit when he did their rendition of day tripper

[Maralyssa]

I so felt his sexuality in this. It was not boring at all! It was so sexy!

[vjvich]

i love it!! this song is awesome!

[saharra22469]

Simply Awsome and cute too.

5s and favs

[K2armada]

I just spewed over the keyboard and screen. This video should come with a warning!

Those judges are total wusses. Yeah- EVEN Simon.

[LIL2511]

Thanks for giving me a definition of the worst version of this song. WTF is with the half time drums? Completely killed the feel of the song.

[ahffk]

its not his version of the song

its 311's version of the song...and he loves 311 so he decided to use that version...so dun blame him for the arrangement...blame 311. plus, i actually like 311's version better

[eclecticderby]

yes 311 version with the reggae feel to it is way better than the original.

[ahffk]

finally someone who has the same opinion as me....

and i dun get why ppl rated my comment down twice...

im just saying its not blake's version so dun blame blake.

and i think 311 has an amazing version

[eclecticderby]

then u should try out songs like lose, 123, sweet

[diabolicscheme]

you are out of your damn mind.

[Hatz94]

There are so many frreaking flat notes i couldn't finish watching it

[GiminiReeM]

Which song was his last performance?

[astrogirl842000]

He was my favortie.

[fieldsfan336]

My favorite studio version of Blake's AI performances is this song, he did a great job on it

[Piratesfanatic12]

i lost

[zhaomichelle918]

I LOOOOVE BLAKE LEWIS!!

[OmerSWDisco]

Cure's better!

[ragassapierre]

COOL HAIR BLAKE! Great FACIAL EMOTION...need that...for a good song...

This is beautiful. Your smile is so innocent and cute..

I'm a fan.. all yours

[redamericanpitty]

Love the Cure but this dude made it his own...good on ya

[blakerox33]

Blake performed this so beautifully...he's AMAZING!!

[guitaristshad]

wow... the cure's version is so much better... why would he do 311's version? butchering this amazing song is another reason why i refuse to watch this damned show

[ellasongstress]

was just doing some searches on blake. so easy to forget about blake and jordin(well, i was never that into jordin) with all the archie/cookie craziness. gosh, he is seriously talented. i so hope he continues to do well. he's a real crooner this one. wouldn't hurt if he put this kind of music on his next album.

[sssilia]

he did it great! i loved this version =)

[joinmeinhell07]

oh ffs guys the cure did this for one and for two this guy did an outstanding performance and lastly. yes 311 covered the cure for this..

[joanna6618]

i think that "Coka Cola" spent a couple billion just to have it's logo everywhere on the show. It kinda makes you wonder how much money they have...

[pixxiequeen101]

Do people realize that this songs version is from 311, not the cure!? He did not make it his own song, he basically stole it!

He is a loser.

[my3ringlife]

I know that no one is likely to see this now, but as a fan of AI, Blake, and David Cook-- can we PLEASE put the responsibility for crediting the covers performed on AI where it belongs-- with the PRODUCERS!!! Blake did not intend to slight or rip off his "favorite band of all time" I said that it was a CURE SONG-- WHICH IT IS, 311 COVERED the CURE's version.

If you have an issue with giving credit where credit is due, BLAME IT ON THE SHOW not a 25 year old kid just trying to get a cd.

[blakerox33]

ha your a loser...

[jamr17]

k ya ummm i didn't like it

[TheCameraLuvsMe]

I've heard a different version of this, I think it must be the studio version which is 3:32. It is MUCH better. In this song he really showed the purity and tenderness of his voice which is good because it's showing that he has variation. This is absolutely beautiful♥

[Ailesh]

ummm I thought that was pretty bad. What were the judges hearing?

[blakergirl567]

shut up he is awesome!

[jazzjohnson1]

o gosh he's amazing what else can I say?

[Colombianyoyo]

I thought this song was done by 311! Still a great version of tthe song by Blake. He should have won though, shame he didn't.

[choocoocaboo]

I still have chills whenever he does this song<3

[gwensfavfan]

this song is beautiful and he sings it so beautifly. i think its his best performance on this season. make sure to pick up his cd "audio daydream" its amazing believe me and also make sure to check out gwen because she is #1!

[heimom]

This was another beautiful performance by Blake.

[maoloysrsea]

i think he rocks go blake lewis

[TranjiFannHere]

Blake is soooo goood

such a sweeet voice

hes amazing!

LOVE YOU BLAKE! <3

[frankdavid22]

I LOVE THIS SONG

[digigirl02]

Blake has such a pretty voice.

[liesbeneathdrose]

"i will always love you" too, blake.=)

[csrl43vr]

thats pretty

thank u

that was so cute!!

[wackypanda]

this was one of my favorite blake performances!!

[ethan306]

This was a disturdingly good combo of the 311 version fused with the original. Good job

[kitenkitsune]

Can someone please tell me what shirt hes wearing? Who its by or where I can find it?

[bballtothemax3]

he makes me cry i love him he relaxes me <3 blake forever

[digigirl02]

He sang this really pretty.

[nsyncchraceandacefan]

Beautiful song & I'm serious that this is on my top 5 of my faves.

[blakergrl721]

i love blake!!!! hes the hottest guy eva!!!!

[greensocks2007]

beautiful very sensitive much better he dont need do beat boxing in every song he is obsessed witn that

[mucikalmonkee]

You can see his face while Paula's commenting. He looks like he wants to say that 311 did it. But he didn't....

Great Performance though! : )

[choocoocaboo]

hey captzero007 do u kno that blake bites his touge on stage after singing cus he doesnt want 2 say anything offensive 2 the judges? well yea he does and hes kinda a coward when it comes 2 speaking up 2 the judges

[daniyell980000]

Where did you here that he bites his tongue? I mean I don't have anything wrong with that I just want to know where you heard it.

[choocoocaboo]

he said it himself on some idol extra episode right b4 finale night

[daniyell980000]

Oh Cool. Thanks for letting me know. I'll look for it.

[captzero007]

It isn't that I don't think that Blake did a great performance with this song. I do.  However, this rendition of the song is nearly an exact clone of the 311 cover of the same. When Paula was giving him props for his originality he should have spoken up.

[blahblahblahman]

captzero, HIS rendition? It's not like he was playing the music in the background. And besides, it's just a more modern updated version of the song. Give props.

[smackAhoe10]

haha i think that blake & gwen have something going on there .. even though she's married ;P

oh and BLAKE is the best contestant ever to be on american idol ever. ever. ever. seriously and people who post comments on videos on youtube saying that he sucks REALLYREALLYREALLY need to find something better to do than that. seriously. fallll backkkk

[flicka114]

i love him he rox

[MikePLover]

its Gwenith P.

[angelmm0303]

thats definitely gwen stefani

[jssass]

Blake is my love. He's singing this to me. I love him and I will marry him.

[BlakeLewisIsmylove]

My Blakie is NOT gay.

[Blakelewisrocks1]

I didnt know Gwen stefani wrote this song!

[Greendayfanut]

gwen stefani didnt write this song the cure did

[Blakelewisrocks1]

i knew that i was jk

[humblestumble]

She didn't. Robert Smith did, and originally it was by The Cure.

[grabeelgirl11]

STOP DOS'IN BLAKE! KEEP IT TO YOURSELF! WHAT IF HE SAW ALL THESE NASTY COMMENTS AND HE FELT HURT!? WHAT IF HE COMMITED SUICIDE CUZ YOU DIDN'T LIKE HIM!? STOP IT! IF YOU DONT LIKE HIM, FINE! JUST DONT POST THIS CRAP! IT ISNT TRUE SO STOP! Ps: I love Blake!

[itsfoshojenoxD]

lol girl, dont go soo serious. he wouldnt kill himself

he is too cute

and yeah, dont bitch at my man blake.

he is amazing.

[harahoopy]

I love this Man, and I am a man

[Nerdpwer]

hoya03 likes sanjaya he's gay

[hoya03]

"In the Universe of Sanjaya, there is a hair salon on every corner."

"In the Universe of Sanjaya, people dance cheek to cheek."

[coolfusion102]

I think he said that in one of his interviews that this was going to be the single not YGLABN. That would not be a good choice. I still luv him singing this though. HOT!

[coolfusion102]

This may not have been his best, but whenever he sings it's ALWAYS hot.

[hoya03]

Hey all im sayin is I heard he wa gay and then this song hurt my dogs ears and my mom got mad and thats all im sayin

[coolfusion102]

Why the hell r u posting this on every video. He's not gay, so go get a life.!!

[coolfusion102]

Why do u post this on every damn video. He is not gay. Go get a life.

[ortoncenafan19]

Loved this performance. Not his best though.

[hoya03]

This song scared my dog and my mom is mad

[DIVASUPASTA]

[noellecab]

[imelmo94]

on a more seroius note i heard that someone hacked into blakes email and messed it up and read all his emails i no that ppl love blake and i do too but there is a fine line between fan and scary obsesed and ppl can go to jail for doing this so if u or some one u no id trying to do this stop urself or stop someone else becaus ehe is very upset about this andu could got to jail

[Munchkin268]

im insanely obbsesed w/ him, but i would never do that, cuz idk his email name anyway, nor his password..

[thisdesertlife04]

Anberlin's cover of this is my favorite too! But I like this also!

[softballcheerx]

[danluver01]

[softballcheerx]

[jssass]

Yeah, this is The Cure version actually. So he did a great job. I love this boy Blakey. I think Stefani's kinda smitten too. :)

[villacinna]

He did a great job with this.

Personally, Anberlin's cover of is my favorite.

[djaphayce]

311 did an AMAZING cover..i like it better than the original with the cure...and i honestly think he really got it from 311 because Blake does like 311 alot

[vams88]

[heaven416]

jordin won it over blakes good but not as good as jordin if he was he wouldve won

[partyboy6666]

all you r dumb he rocks and should have won he will be huge like Daughtry Duh.

[jaddelily]

you know hes hot, but he just has too many pitch problems, especially in this song. i think thats why jordin won. if he didnt have problems with pitch i think there would definately been more of a competition (sp?)

[Halloweenalbino]

Omg...he sang stuff from "the cure"? omg....not as good as the original...nice try.

[WWEANDCPRULEZ]

fu guys who blake blake was the best a**holes who hate him

[kevin1491]

JORDIN SPARKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAHA

I knew she wouldn't let me down.

Blake SUCKS!!!!

[blakefan2410]

HIM crushin on HER!? I think it's a lil bit the other way around! She was all like "That's pretty!" and he just smiles...typical Blake lol

[Shereeda22]

aaa so true... he's so sweet and cute!!! how can ppl not like? he's gonna be huge like Daughtry... aaa both me boys didnt win :( but it's not gonna stop them!!!

[bounce66]

Yeah, Jordin is such a cry baby, a typical drama queen. Blake is so coool...

[Cambootz]

hahaha GO JORDIN GO JORDIN

[AshleyCandy]

he didn't win jordin did

[novdacx]

ilove

[iTzRicky]

oooo man well find out the last 10 minutes of the show who the winner is !

2 hours of american idol is such a waste of time. im watchin the last 10 minutes of it nd thas all

[genericwit]

Well, it was a really good show with some pretty good performances... not everything is just about crowning the winner.

It was really obvious that Jordin was going to win, but I still love Blake to death.

[softballcheerx]

amazing. he is my favorite contestant ever

[TunaFishSalad101]

I fricken love blake he is the best and is going to win for sure!!!! Go BLAKE I LOVE YOU!!!!

[AAANNNIIIEEE13]

GO JORDIN!!!! WOO WOOOOOT

[blakergirl1992]

uumm....VOTE BLAKE!!!!

[harrywoo]

Awesome! Love Blake.

[LukeJesu]

He is well cool, I hope he wins.

Cat Deeley as an announcer for the UK version of AI (like the US but slightly altered, in that there is less Ryan and more of Cat Deeley attempting to present it) is rubbish.

GO AI! GO BLAKE!

[kevin1491]

Blake YOU SUCK!!!!!!!

Jordin Sparks is so much better.

She Is THE AMERICAN IDOL!!!

[yellehs2]

umm kevin1491 you suck ass!! jordin is a good singer but not a great performer sry.and he kicked ass on this song!! sucha a hottie!!!

[atkwswu]

lol, your so gay

[AAANNNIIIEEE13]

Oh yeah!

GO JORDIN!!!

[blakergirl1992]

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[costaricarox]

blake better win american idol, hes so unique. he deserves to win.

[kevin1491]

too bad he lost!!!

hahahaha

Go JORDIN!!

[frenchbabe500]

i love blake!!!!

[DrenaPDX]

Way to go Blake!!  Another Awesome performance!

[IXDIDXNOTXFART]

it looked like gwen thought he was cutee or something when he was singing to her. && im glad he didnt beat box, it probably would of ruined it. YEAH BLAKE!! good luck in the finales BABE!

[marwasafi]

and I thought our german idols is shit... XD

[Brede14]

alright this song is amazing... much better done by 311 than the cure, so i was glad that they played it that way... and he is my hero for saying 311 is his favorite band... all mixed up was good too! gooo blake

[YetiAreLove]

this is my favorite performances of blakes, and one of my favorite songs! i'm going to voting for him compuslively on tuesday, he better win american idol, jordin makes me want to smash my head into a wall.

go blake!!!!

[xandyxbassx]

i love blake but the cure sings it a lot better. The cure make blake look like a piece of crap. But it was Ok

[Centellaz]

they should have played the REAL version of the song not the 311 cover, way too slow!

[96alaura]

He's so good ! Love him, love him, love him.

I just saw this performens in tv yesterday - we're a little behind in Denmark :b But I know he'll make it to the final, and I'm so glad - I really hope he'll win !!!

[iloveblakelewis07]

OMG I LOVE BLAKE!! he looks soo much hotter w/ short hair..his new hair rocks too! he is soo cute<3

[Popwarbunny27]

Hm, I might have to agree with Simon on Blake being the strongest guy in the competition, both vocally and performance-wise. He has definitely shown it and I guess it all played out with him being the last man standing. I was worried with him compared to the ladies, but he did just fine. Not the strongest guy of all seasons, but of this one, I'll agree.

[Sammmyyxx]

blake song this song for me<3
