Well I can say that this girl has an amazing voice and a pure raw talent My wife was in a Idol comp and got cut in the third round and shes good but this girl is just amazing you go girl and I did not even know there was an Australian Idol till this day but I do love the accent it turns me to mush lol.

[katsitsaienhne]

question you say aboriginal??? You mean Indian from india because she looks it. I dont mean to be rude, i just want to clear it up . I am A north american inidian a.k.a Native american and aboriginal normally means native. but she has an amazing voice none the less , way to go !!!!!

[ivelostmypjs1]

@katsitsaienhne no, shes not indian. google: australian aboriginal.

[taciturnboy88]

@katsitsaienhne she is Australian Aboriginal and Timorese mix.

[fukiwow]

I love Australian idol

[azivine]

oh my god...it is just amazing.....diamant voice...congratulations from roumania girl!

[2smart4yal]

A M A Z I N G !

[chepiman07]

love her voice she's totally gorgeus and i can say that she's more like indonesian..rather than australian....as we know that his father is indonesian and most indonesian's good singer came from her father mainland...

[X987XpiperX987X]

Oh wow... : D I so love the Australian accent.. <3 Lush!

[huiachick]

Absolutely beautiful

[Kitsunegirl1212]

Holy fucking shit! I was expecting a wanna-be girl with barely talent but this is pure beauty. What a GORGEOUS, STUNNING voice. Holy CRAP! <333

[lanadria]

@Kitsunegirl1212 agree looks can be deceiving

[ishamj1]

@Kitsunegirl1212 i know right

[Chavalabonita]

Mas fea la cuestion.

[MrFlirtatious2]

best bit from 1:45 - 2:10 !

[SweetHxXx]

im from the UK and i think shesssssssssss amazing!!!

i really do!! so did she win?

[glitt3rfly]

@SweetHxXx no she was the runner up. but has continued to work on her singing career!

[stephy269811]

jessica mauboy is amazing im so glad she is australian she has a beautiful australia is a beautiful country (thts were i live)

[Blueknightex]

Gosh she's awesome. Why didn't she win? The Australian people voting are insane!

Its not just about who needs deserves this more and needs it more to succeed.

For last year I was ok with either Hayley or Stan winning so I was happy that Australian Idol stepped up the plate.

[Nicoal1256]

@Blueknightex Oh gosh i loveddd hayley

[chilam1]

it seems that whoever don't win australian idol, goes on and do better than the ones that win.

except for guy sebastian

[Blueknightex]

@chilam1 yeah but I think its because the public wants to vote for the one that needs it more to succeed later when they become an artist. Back on the first season of Australian Idol it was still new and people often voted for who really is the best regardless of who needs it more.

Nowadays its different.

[ToadyMcgee]

WOW!

[todortoseproeski]

AWSOME!!!

[Lellai1]

Amen to that Brother

[bieber12345ful]

she's A W E S O M E . !

[Serielle]

She so should have won... I don't even remember who she was up against =/

[1990BJK]

@Serielle

She was up against Damien Leith. They have both sold alot of records now anyway and they both got several touchdowns from Mark so they both deserved to win. 

[MrParrishhilton]

she is NOT filipino or even aborigin, SHE HAS INDONESIAN BLOOD... DIDN'T YOU KNOW INDONEISA? her father is from west timor, a province in Indonesia..

so she is INDONESIAN!!

[Serielle]

@MrParrishhilton Jessica IS Aboriginal, her mother is an Indigenous Australian and her FATHER is Indonesian =)

[SpaceyyyGuy]

@MrParrishhilton what the helll are you talking about? i know your proud that she is Indonesian, but she is also aboriginal!! she is 1/2 half aboriginal + 1/2 indonesian!! so theree

[taciturnboy88]

@MrParrishhilton She is Mixed Aboriginal Australian and Timor. Timor is actually Melanesia, not Asia....

I dont know why People keep refering to Indonesian as Asians, when there re multiple race in that country.

[cdarrsse]

Wow... chills the whole time, and I hardly ever get chills from singers. Amazing!

[satinfloss]

she's well underrated - it's such a shame:/

[davebianca]

I thought she is Filipino because of her surname... but she is really good...

[galitsatalangka]

still awkward but great singer

[chadboy0]

Sigh, another upstart singer who thinks they can do better than Whitney and Mariah. I sware this song pops up in every singing talent show contest.

[taciturnboy88]

@chadboy0 well che can sing better than the CURRENT Whitney and Mariah.

[chadboy0]

@taciturnboy88 That's like saying I could sing better than Elvis. I can now because he can't sing anymore (RIP) but when he was in his prime, I definitely couldn't match him.

[math11as]

beautiful

[kouriskiii]

this is the best version, agreeing with stitchcastle.

better than archuleta and leon and sobacian girl (cant spell)

[angelzrockzforever]

If she is the runner-up, I wonder who the winner is

[GUNUNGLAKAAN]

Oh My God, She Is West Timorese Girl!

[Terrancew340]

jessica mauboy is proven the best ever in the whole entire world too make the bestest oif her singing she made it higher

[BKGK90]

BKGK90

Talent wise both Damien and Jess wre worthy winners but I wanted Jess to win just cuz the previous year people didn't vote for Emily cuz she was kiwi even though she was by far the better singer so it's kinda hypocritical to then have an Irish guy win the next year especially when Jess was aboriginal so therefore she is as true Aussie as they come.

[gato23ize1]

me encanta esta cancion y Jessica la borda le pone su estilo y le sale genial fantastico.

[rogenlee]

who won?? pls. reply...

[bluecandy100]

SHe should have totally won!!!!!!!!!

[animechild227]

That was realllly good i got goosebumps i wonder who won?

[MegaMrVa]

she was amazing wow :O

[LUCZADE123]

WOWW, That was amazing Dint know what she was that goood! :P

[striklyywestside]

it doesnt matter waht d haters on here

say .

shes famous anyways bitchs

& your not =]

build a bridge & jump off it

[LadyFlatz]

haha nice one! shame 2 all you jealous losers!

[tina2deadly]

Oh My God...i am so over all the comments that have been made on any of the Jessica Mauboy Videos...People, let me make this clear...if you don't like the singer the what the fuck are you doing watching a video about the singer???? Next time type in somebody elses name or song...stop harrassing Jessica!!! I am related to her, or so i found out and every video i see about her has comments that are so rude...so please stop it and get over your self...the video is there to enjoy...so enjoy...

[THNswimmer11]

Those vocals are unreal!!!! Amazing, amazing, amazing talent!

[gato23ize1]

Cuando escuche esta canción me gusto mucho, pero cuando la oí en esta versión me encanto mucho más Jessica tienes una gran voz espero que llegues muy lejos!

[sharvie73]

She is a sexy young lady, some people seem to be threatened by non Anglo sexiness. Their loss.

[sharvie73]

yeah if we are going to generalize lets include all those of Anglo decent who run amok each Australia day along the fore shore. Who glass each other and act like fucked up yobbos spoiling it for those families who want to just be cool. Ending up on tv. Acting the goat. So dont go putting down anyone else until u look at yourself people.

[nkb086]

gorgeous, awesome voice i'm totally a fan!!

[tina2deadly]

RB25DET2498cc, You are a racist f**k head... i mean what gives you the right to call an indeginious australian an abo? I am aboriginal myself and for years we have been pissed off about the racist remarks that we get everyday because of our colour and race. If you don't like us...then f**k off to a different country cuz mate, we don't want you here with that sort of manner....

[RB25DET2498cc]

@tina2deadly stfu shes an abo

[RB25DET2498cc]

@tina2deadly Alright, I can't even recall saying 'abo' before today's post and i don't remember because i couldn't care less if she's an abo or not really. I just think she's a mut who can sing. Just stating facts mate.

[roryray2]

@tina2deadly i always thought abo was just a short way of saying it?

fark. if its racist, some people probably hate me D:

[jzzhane]

fat!!!!

[freyamia]

when you will have that kind of voice and get that far in life, then you could aloud yourself to comment like that, until then shut up!!!

and that doesn't matter when she has such a great voice!

[enoz65]

@freyamia GR8 VOICE

[RB25DET2498cc]

Just say ABO, simple as that. Gosh SHES UGLY!

[Modelqaibottle]

@RB25DET2498cc You are ugly!

[Mrdreamera]

She might not be your type of gal, but you didn't have to be so bloody bitter about it. She is putting rnb/pop back on the map in this country so kudos to her! Unlike some retard who can do nothing but critize other people from behind a computer screen. Only jealous people and those who are butt ugly themselves would say something like that so I guess that says alot about you. She is Jessica Mauboy rnb/pop star. And you are???? A nobody. And for the record, she is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Hater!

[TheMathias456]

@RB25DET2498cc She's a hell of a lot better looking than you and your ugly ass mother ! Jessica Mauboy is the best singer in the world, she's got the most talent of anyone I've ever heard sing EVER

[RB25DET2498cc]

@TheMathias456 lol stfu she's a mut

[TheMathias456]

@RB25DET2498cc How the fuck are you talking when your mother's probably a half breed dog human hybrid slut !

[Modelqaibottle]

HALF SAMOAN YOUR ASS! Wats up with Samoans claiming??? She's actually half indonesian half indigenous australian! Do some research before you try and claim people to your pathetic country!

[roxy7222]

@Modelqaibottle You 1 sad ass person, Just like australians try claim people that werent even born here, but reside here. I think it was a joke claiming her to be of Samoan descent, how ever regardless what ethnic group she is from, she is of human race.

[Modelqaibottle]

@roxy7222 Im telling it how it is! Australia is made up of imigrants so they have the right to say someone is australian! I havent heard of australia claiming ppl who arent australian! Im not sad...im honest. Some samoans make other pacific islanders look bad.

[Mrdreamera]

just like some fijians, kiwi's, tongans make other pacific island people look bad too. If your going to generalise, include everyone else.

[juniourlatai]

half samoan bahahahahaha lol funni dude!!!!

[LittleCloserBoi]

Gosh Australia really has some amazing singers. :) Love hearing stuff from that country!

[th0th0yzcute006]

@LittleCloserBoi

Filipinos too .. hehe

[BananaBoloz]

She's actually half Samoan

[Mrdreamera]

LOL

No she's not:)

Half Indeginous Australian, Half Indonesian...She said so herself:)

[greatidoldirlycious]

Damn !!! she is so good!! if she really is half indonesian, i am proud of it :) go girl

[Forwardthinker22]

Jessica has a lovely tone to her voice, and is so much better than any of this year's Oz Idols. She can teach them how to sing in tune and put a song across, I believe.

My only criticism is her tendency to warble around the note. Not keen on that style of singing.

Like Anthony Callea, she should have won her year and as with Anthony, she's doing very well out there in the world. You go girl!

[kanazef]

she is half indonesian-australian :) ! i like her voice..btw..im indonesia..and i was hear jesica singin in indonesia language..so amazing voice :) !

[playmate659]

Awesome Video

Beautiful song

Thanks For Sharing

[pighippofish897]

yukk who would writre that far out u judgemental people !

[wreckDesigns]

america is the fattest country in the world....so the ones who take pride in how they look have a right to call it like it is.....shes a heffer.....got an AMAZING voice....but she needs to diet a lil......but she is far from ugly...

[WombatStuu]

Not anymore... Australia and surrounding countries have been higher ranked then the states for some time now

[tina2deadly]

Hey mate....we might be big but at least we have better talent then any other countries...

[dishopper]

This is a very good cover but I like Leon Jackson cover better... Sorry.

[BeInDaSpotLight]

wow FilthyRich you are one rediculous person who obviously has nothing better than to comment stupid comments seriously i think you need to get a life and ugly fat people?? America is the fattest country in the world hate to break it to you i guess your just jelous aye??

im not from aussie but u pissed me off with you retarded comments

[ukustarmitch]

nice rendition... she should have won...

[hectikool]

u are a very sad person. i feel sorry for you. she may hav don that and im sad that shes a dif person then wen she started but u dont hav 2 so cutting. get a life

[hop208]

I'm confused. What exactly are you trying to say? I'm not Australian, I'm American. I've never even been to Australia. I was just saying that I thought her performance was really good. I don't know about any other contestants or anything. I've never seen their show before.

[hop208]

As an American, I've never heard of Australian Idol.  It isn't advertised or talked about AT ALL. BUT, I have to say that was the best rendition of the Whitney-Mariah version or "When You Believe" I have ever heard. Not one mistake!! I wish we knew her here in the US. Very very talented.

[neighboursfan5009]

<3

loove her voicee

[drumsalive]

what a voice:) i love her ohter stuff as well:)

[mizzfamouz1]

omgaw...that gave me chills =)))))

[KULGUY2009]

SHE WAS GREAT AT THE END

[pupununuu]

[Apb012]

[billybodybuilder]

Jessica lost to Damien Leith.

Australian Idol is FUCKED ! they all are !

It goes on the ppl's votes & in Jessica's case all the jealous little sluts voted against her & now she's bigger than ever !

Now those little bitches who voted agaisnt her can SUCK IT !!

[LadyFlatz]

I agree !!!

[Blackheiress09]

Yeah she is totally a star here. Damien Leith Doesn't even compare.

[luvyouOonot]

damien leith

[LOLCOPTER]

i like her, when she really starts stepping up at the end! REALLY. her falsetto sounds airy, instead of tone-y.

[Evayne]

Nice. But the orchestra spoilt it for me. They sound awful.

[bernice17]

yeah they need to tone it down a bit lol

[revoltegirl]

so beautiful

[angelzrockzforever]

she actually has. I think she sounds pretty good.

[kawaiiayshunx01]

sounds pretty good? SHE IS AMAZING!! OMGG she gives me the goosebumps bro. she is the AWESOMEST!

[CRhys185]

she's HOTTT even hotter now!!

keep up the gudd work chick'

[Yunginspirit]

I love this beautiful song.

[samagirl1980]

she does this so beautifully.... love you Jess

[nickspat]

She sings well-but they need to raise her mike volume or lower the volume of the orchestra-her voice is getting lost in the music

[bernice17]

true!

[bigazza09]

This is soooo much better than when she did it during the show !!!

[ricsta001]

dang she' s mad, she got talent

[2youmahal]

The best, what an amazing voice!!!

[pago253]

Wow...She's good...Great singing...

[MackiTabz]

Jessica singing this song truly gives me goosebumps cos she just sings it soooo beautifully!!!...She serioulsy should of won that year! Keep up the good work Jess!! Proud of you girl!!

[nottys99]

I lived in darwin when she auditioned we knew some of her family members her mother is abo and her father is indo...End of story ...P.s she rocks it everytime!

[swo00p]

I think the correct term is Aborigine...not Abo..that's just term can be taken the wrong way...you know what I mean...and yes...she does rock!

[nottys99]

Im aborigine and i dont mind abo

[GunbladeTrigger]

[samagirl1980]

[TonnyCallea]

@stitchcastle I prefer Anthony Callea´s version!!

[maoriSHooRTiie]

OMG !!
