[matachanchos]

waoooooooo :O uuuu

[dave1233345]

why do people think they deserve to be a star because they can sing a decent cover?

[alen007boss]

is the best man

[ytcarol]

Lord, he is glorious in this. That inner energy. No words.

[misterdomin]

1:04 What's wrong ? xD

[m121566]

I thought Kurt Nilsen did better in World Idol. But, thats only my opinion

[90Daaaannnneeee]

Best performance on any x factor ever? Could be

[MultiJaffacakes]

He dances like Jack Black

[TheTuktuk42]

I liked the grand final verdict better he sang with so much emotion :)

[TheTuktuk42]

I hugged him! haha

[CareNalga17]

who is bono?

[Faith00007]

/watch?v=yEagCf4cG14  best

[MikkaVH]

Good voice but KURT NIELSEN made this cover much better ...

[patvilleneuve20]

@MikkaVH kurt nilsen sang it exactly like bono, altiyan made something different and amazing

[KKOPPI]

great emotion in his voice

[joanmesa]

THIS IS HOW A ROCKSTAR OWNS AN SCENARIO!

[tbabaeniyan]

WHO THE FUCK IS THIS??? and WHY is he not a MEGA STAR yet!!!!

[5big1s]

living in liverpool england,what happened to this fella ? never heard of him over here.

[kimkiz69]

@5big1s Altiyan Childs is just about to put out a tell all book about his journey. A new album ( 2012 ) out following the book.

[Sh0ked]

alright voice, retarded moves wtf!!!

[ShadowDog415]

wow this is pretty good

[emerson24]

Dude was in a zone that's for sure. The judges went from judging to being fans at a concert.

[unusualdust]

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[TheJoslyn2009]

U2 hes not.

[Lelitakjn]

Were they listening to an Ipod or something while he was singing?

I've noticed that they have these earplugs in them while they're singing but take them out when they're done :S What is that, does anyone know?

[polarak]

@Lelitakjn i think they isolate his voice in the ear piece. 

[Kaleboy100]

awesome...



[kimkiz69]

Could listen to Altiyan's version of Beautiful Day over & over again - BRILLIANCE !!!!!!!!

[1stNightingale]

Seriously the hundreds of covers i have heard of this and no-one does it better than U2 but this is by far the second placer. And still his own.

[Iasiel]

Never ever will I get tired of watching this beautiful man!

[AussiePiper1992]

he's got an awesome voice.. but man.. he's such a weirdo on stage lol.. always cracks me up

[angrymurashka]

wowwwww

[stiffmaisterfication]

wow

[ROOKTABULA]

Umm.. " A star is born"....?

A karaoke star yes....

"Who else can sing this but Altiyan"?

You mean absolutely nowhere NEAR as good as Bono?

Well beusdes this Slab de Fromage?

About elleventy million...

[thesoftdiamond]

1:10 he sounds exactly like Bono

[CherylDouglass]

Completely brilliant. Did this guy win? I'm only seeing this for the first time as in UK

[jamman487]

@CherylDouglass yeahp but go back to his audition

[bibi5767]

@CherylDouglass Yes, he now has his  2nd album out :)

[17756577]

Great job in the production.

[OffspringFTW65]

WHAT A FUCKIN ROCKER!!!!!!

[scarlettfromatlanta]

What a great performance!

[christinel47]

Never liked U2 till you sang this Man u r fantastic hope to see u in concert soon

[guruwallydean]

Even not being live and on YouTube, you get washed in the energy of it. I hate TV and the x-factor stuff. But they found somebody original for once. Okay he's singing a cover, but Altiyan, I mean Alerian, MR CHILDS, great job bro!

[adora1ification]

Can't get enough of Altiyans performance. he's really a fantastic performer and in this song everybody believes in him Can't get enough of this talented artist. Put it simply.... he's fantastic. Love him so much

[mjnc99]

Congratulations on winning Highest-selling Album of the Year at the ARIAS, Altiyan!

See him live at Westfield Parramatta on Tuesday, 29th November!!!

[adora1ification]

@mjnc99 ... Is it true ? that he won the Highest Selling Album of the Year? Gosh ! it's fantastic. Was it shown on T. V. ? unfortunately I wasn't able to watch the presentation as I was working but this is a wonderful news. In a way he deserves it because he is really a fantastic performer, and a wonderful artis.... Love Altiyan................

and @mjnc99 " thank you for telling the world the good news.. I am so please with that.

[samuraifugitivo]

Reminds me of jim morrison



[billiemcreative]

Altiyan's performance is priceless and on some many levels. He captivates his audience and takes them to the most magically places. When I watch his video's and listen to his voice, I feel it every time. And it's great to see that it's not only his audience that's affected - the judges are completely mesmerized, almost hypnotized by his entire performance. PRICELESS!

[ahnitaa]

U2 is my favorite band and that's why a have to comment this: BEST COVER EVER!

[gusna91]

My God! He's amazing... I have no words. (Fan from BRAZIL)

[siraustin1]

just love Kyle's face..... pure amazement.....!

[FOURTEEFIVE]

@siraustin1 hahahaha

[siraustin1]

@TheDzidzileyla

Altiyan's album "Altiyan Childs" is available to download. :-)

[siraustin1]

Genius - no other word for it.

[kotyesz75]

Ez 1 rakás szar!

[PCampbell76]

@kotyesz75 Jól adja elő a csávó, de ennyi! Hangilag sehol nincs Tamáshoz...

[kotyesz75]

A MI TAMÁSUNK A KIRÁLY!BÚJJ EL!

[vandijkav]

Clever Ronan saw his potential, inspite of his early memory losses

[bandesz1985]

Comapre with this and then say Altiyan is the best...

Tarányi Tamás - x-faktor beautiful day

[djdebest]

this is good!

[TheDzidzileyla]

I want to buy his album in Poland!!!!

[domosgy]

look at this version:

Tarány Tamás - Beautiful Day X-faktor

[PCampbell76]

@domosgy szerintem fasorban sincs Tarány Tomihoz képest ez a buzi :-)

[midatlanticcycle]

who the hell's this clown?

[Wacko1a]

this guy is far to good for this shithouse show!

[raerimchoi17]

you're really great any genre of music you sing you did it so well....YOU'RE SUCH A GREAT PERFORMER!!!!]

[jihsjh]

This guy is great. Check out his songs from his masonia days. Can't understand why they didn't make it big years ago. So much for the music industry recognising talent. Well he is here now and deserves great things.. His new song, Ordinary man, is brilliant.

[meessa2010]

@jihsjh World On Fire would have to be one of my favourite albums. Absolutely love it. Altiyan is such an incredibly talented songwriter. I can't wait for his new album.

[jihsjh]

@meessa2010 World on Fire is absolutely brilliant along with the singles, Dream, simple, irregular. Amazing stuff and his new song, WOW

[kgb0304]

Tarány Tamás X faktor hungary Beautiful Day.....

[siraustin1]

@meessa

thanks a lot for that:-)

[siraustin1]

@ctakahob

You think?? Well - he's gained a fan here in UK.... and I'm a local radio DJ, so I think my opinion counts more than yours........

[Meganismful]

Yes, he is an amazing singer, but I think someone should have one who would do something with winning, like I haven't heard anything from him after he won. A waste I think.

[mrstudes]

holy fuck

[siraustin1]

only just found his clips here - now trying to find his album in the UK - this guyss great.........

[meessa2010]

@siraustin1 You can also find Altiyan's original music with his former band Masonia on youtube from their album World on Fire (no longer available). Songs such as Criminal, Madness, Circus, 3168, Pimp Girl, King is Dead, just to name a few. As well as Simple, Anywhere with You and other original songs. Altiyan is such a brilliant songwriter and musician. His new single Ordinary Man has just been released.

[bobbyjovi]

America needs him???HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

david lee roth,jon bon jovi,prince,sammy hagar,journey,kiss and ummm Altiyan..hahahaha in ur fucking dreams..he wont get out of australia

[madyb94]

@bobbyjovi you forgot the beach boys.

[ctakahob]

He is terrible!

[MmelanieREOW]

far out i still get goose bumps from his voice <3

[bobbyjovi]

Yep a "STAR" IS BORN.

More like my prediction...where is he now????

C'mon Ronan you said you'd take this thing around the world .More like pubs and clubs.

As for the rest of you morons.Why not go and support him.Oh i forgot theres another x factor on atm....clueless fucks

[destiny6666]

@bobbyjovi beautifully said, Ronan overuses the term "superstar" for most of the acts on xfactor, there's no doubt this guy is a good performer, however there's so much more to a career than singing covers of hits we all know and love, a true superstar is a singer, songwriter and businessman who has been successful for many years, sadly for the "morons" this guys star is fading fast, too much damage was done by the appearance on Today Tonight, it's all going pear shaped and will end in tears!

[MrDingeee]

1:04 thinking : " impossible ! " 

[ROOKTABULA]

Throwing the Devil horns while crooning: "See the bird with the leaf in her mouth"

?!?!?!!

lmfao

just sayin'

[TheProfileder]

@MrDingeee you misspelled "Impossibru"

[andy1bra]

fuark - so talented but he's got shit management and advisers

[6HANNY9]

WOW

[spyk316]

If only I could eat Natalie's pie! mannn.. ok gotta change my pants..

[Goosey9111]

Natalie looks soo hot as always!

[sondano]

2:46 Charles Manson?

[LesKern]

talented, but if I had to listen every day I'd prefer Kurt Nilsen

[jjessjessjess]

he is a fruit loop but he is amazing!

[TheDomino83]

wooooooooooooooooooooooow you are amazing man

[jokerud89]

?v=vmbcMuEA15g

[meessa2010]

I never get tired of watching this. Altiyan sings with such passion. That's what I loved about all his performances on X Factor. He owns the stage. A worthy winner.

[nessquik95]

love his voice, love his look, love his story, love his performances, love his individuality <3

[kimkiz69]

Looking back at last years appearances of Altiyan he sang this with such POWER absolutely INCREDIBLE !!! And for those commenting where is Altiyan now ? He has just finished a East Coast tour. This week his NEW Single ' Ordinary Man ' was launched ... AMAZING song! 

[OttozzonMarkus]

i think he sings very good but, not this song.

[taurusgal1983]

he friggen nailed it!! remember watching this when it was on last year, but Altiyan where are you? where did you go??

[Cillarocks37]

@taurusgal1983 He did nail it! Just listen to that audience!!!! Where is he? He just finished his 2nd successful tour. Did you miss out? He was awesome!!!!! His new single "Ordinary Man" has just been released on radio - going on sale 23/9/11. You should sign up with facebook if you haven't already & "like" his page. He's got over 49,000 facebook fans & this way you can be kept up to date with what he's doing :)

[destiny6666]

@Cillarocks37 - yeah Ordinary Man has stormed the charts in Australia and gone straight to No. 1 on iTunes ... just like his debut single of last year ... WOW instant success ... the haters and doubters can bugger off ... not only is he a rock star but he is a proven marketing dream ... dating a teenager equals respect ... hehehehe :)

[Cillarocks37]

@destiny6666 oh you're back checking up on someone you claim to be no fan of....I thought you got a life by now. His single only just got released. Sheez. Has anyone ever gone to No. 1 that quickly? Oh yeah, his debut single did but there was more publicity on it back then. Actually I believe his girlfriend is 20 now - not so much a teenager but I thought cougarising has been in for years. I'm not a prude when my rockers in USA have done bigger things behind the scenes. Love em anyways.

[destiny6666]

@Cillarocks37 - yeah I'm back & giving him much needed views so ease up :) ... I like the song I must say tho a bit surprised it's not his own composition coz all the lovers kept bragging of his song writing ability? ... hey you all told me he was a rock star and even an international superstar ... so this time it's about talent and not off the back of a highly rating TV show! ... I'm keen to see if A) it hits the top 40 (thought it would have by now) and B) is he really is the a superstar?

[Cillarocks37]

@destiny6666 Ok. Glad u like the song:) Idon't no y they didn't use 1 of his own songs-but I love his voice on any song he sings (gives it edge/a rocky sound).I love his originals-cd is permanently in my car -never can hear enough of it.I think World on Fire cd would have done amazingly if rereleased.Loved 3 new originals he sang in Aug tour.Promotion is a huge problem.I I had not seen any ads outside of fb regarding his 2nd tour or his single. With proper promo-I believe he'd be huge. :)

[Cillarocks37]

@destiny6666 Oh, I probably should have also mentioned that its not just Altiyan that isn't get much promotion when he should, but unfortunately over the past several years..rockers don't get near as much promotion as the popstars , hence why I lost track of my fave rockers for a while then, but Altiyan revived my love for rock with these dynamic performances & his songs. Also, like any talent shows - the 1st couple get the most promo cause its new. Jess M took a while 2 get there & she's pop.

[destiny6666]

@Cillarocks37 - do you think the Today Tonight interview has turned people off him? You mentioned he has 49,000 fbook fans ... if they are committed to him & his career/new single wouldn't it have stormed the charts? Your thoughts? :)

[Cillarocks37]

@destiny6666 I don't think TT turned his fans off (def not the 1's that know what he's capable of - originals & seen him in concert).A compassionate person would have felt for him & understood.I think when someone chooses to dislike/hate someone without real reason like in this case...well they are hard to move.Still think too soon to skyrocket without the nec promo. I'm a huge Bon Jovi fan but never purchased the singles, only the albums & not straight after release.I bought Ordinary Man.

[destiny6666]

true die-hard fans like yourself are like family, their kids can do no wrong :) I do know of fans who think he's a bit of a drama queen/attention seeker, & that the TT interview was a real turn off/career mistake, the majority would rather him stick to what he does well on stage & leave the personal stuff personal, hopefully he will learn a lesson (he must be appearing on X-factor soon as after one week Ordinary Man has not appeared in the iTunes top 200 singles chart which is very strange?)

[SuperComplainer]

he's so lively on the stage apart from like other singers who just stand there singing he actually interacts with the crowd and apparently the camera's hahah! love him!

[niicoole7]

such amazing talent gone to waste :(

[sherlock747]

I really wish he and Masonia would reform.

[tompb22]

dickhead host cutoff :)

[AndSoRYou]

wow, he is awesome ! :D Such passion :) I wish hear more of him

[matias27081981]

one of the best performances i ever see in a show like this!! owesome!!!!!

[JonMitso]

He was good. released 1 album and then lost all his money. Now his a loser.

[jacksix92]

i love him because hes different, and so much talent <3

[ishmaelmecall]

legend



[XxXMeDallXxX]

Solo una palabra, Wow :o

[jihsjh]

Going to see him on tour next weekend, OMG. Just can't wait.

[xxraquelitaxx1]

muy buena interpretacion



[loripotkay]

wow natalie imbruglia & Ronan keating!

[littlebirdmjfan]

I love the raw "power" he puts into this performance. It's exactly what I thought was missing from U2's version, no offense to that awesome band. I would love to hear this live!

[MrSpectre005]

Good performance, but we can also say 'good job' to the musicians, beacause you forgot some lyrics. U2 are better. Bono is better.

[Wanttojfk]

Very nice singing but poor performance by the band

[luvgus]

No he didn't I followed along with him and he didn't miss any words. This was an awesome performance!!

[paswerk]

Didn´t like it, sorry.... You lost your lirics a couple of times...



[destiny6666]

@paswerk - he does that every performance :)

[spketola]

Kurt Nielsen covered this better than this guy

[imao666]

@spketola I think Kurt tried to copy bono's voice and performance, which he did a really great job, and Child's tried to perform in his own style! Which is really awesome as well!

[CaronAplus]

America needs him.. I would definitely see him in concert when he comes to the states.. awesome..

[pusicuta2000]

super!

[elmanya17]

I'm from Uruguay, and this is the first time i listen to this guy and its awesome! HE IS A REAL ARTIST!

[cesar7mf]

kurt nilsen sings better

[PasYune]

Damn he`s talented. :)

[KKOPPI]

love natalie!

[kukydevil]

that dude on the right thinks he's a simon cowell impersonator?

[FRiKiJDM]

It's a complete privilege watching Altiyan singing with such a passion, you can see he got a chance to live his dream in front of hall full of people cheering him up like a true rock star. I hope he will live this dream again and again for the rest of his life. Thanks Altiyan!

[antoniomaka]

your the man

[daskmask9502]

bono kicks this kids ass

[Culturealimprovement]

He is good but sorry, he is no Kurt Nielsen.

[pouria57]

31 people have a shity day!

[Demeterzsolt1991]

Nice1.... never heard this name but yep..... A star is born :)

[ddany7]

did he win?

[TheNooneisallowed]

@ddany7 well no shit Sherlock

[jihsjh]

It's a beautiful day and this guy is brilliant. Sticking with you Alts.

[artifexmediawa]

I dare you to try and tell the difference between Altitan and Bono in this song

[jab307]

@artifexmediawa Easy, Altiyan is the guy who sings it WAYY better

[s0meb0dyst0pme]

@artifexmediawa you bet your sweet ass you can tell the difference. although this kids is ok, he lacks maturity of voice. give him 20 years, let him sing some ;)

[meessa2010]

@s0meb0dyst0pme This 'kid' has been singing for 20 years in various bands. Altiyan is also a very talented songwriter. His album 'World on Fire' with his former band Masonia is fantastic and so is his other music. Altiyan has a new single out now called 'Ordinary Man'. 

[XxDylrobxX]

@artifexmediawa their voices for starters

[sawasdeekharush]

WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!!!??

[Krissyxxlyn]

Didn't like his version of Bryan Adams Summer of 69' but this is WOW!!! He rocked it!!

[Cillarocks37]

Hey to all Altiyan fans. Altiyan's concerts in August 2011 - Live and No Lies Tour. Purchase your tickets from Ticketek.......get behind this amazing Rocker. Australia should be proud. ♥

[Thumbelllina]

Awesome !!!

[paulhewson11]

payasooo

[counttravula]

Kurt Nilsen does a better job..... a much better job.

[todller]

i think that bono could be actually jealous about that Altyian ;) it has more emotions in it that bonos version. pure genius :D

[cdlund1987]

ok, in the description, you asked who else could sing this but Altiyan and U2... to be completely fair, Wes Carr more than did song justice on Australian Idol....

[Rogelle]

He is not on iTunes...:-(

[manwholikecow]

His beard is like god

[merakelly7]

amee su voz rasposaaa *-*
