He's the sh*t...stunning! Would love to hear what he can do with Strayhorn's "Lush Life". Was also thinking on the rock side that "Maggie May" would sound great coming out of his mouth.
Yes Casey keep your humbleness. Stop sneering into the camera and you will be fine. Those weird faces can turn off some people. Other than that you are awesome.
there is a fine line in being creative and self indulgent, he'll probably make a decent jazz musician one day but this is a singing competition and his singing is weak. every note ends in aa..eeh or mmm-eeh, or just an mmmmmm, just sing the song for crying out loud, and sing something that most people have at least heard of. he is gone unless Paul beats him to it.
@TheKamikoo hahaha Paul's gone now, dumbfuck. you don't know shit about music... at all. all of your comments just proved that. go listen to the mainstream shit you hear on the radio, ya sheep.
@ThumbOfMeganFox you r every bit as retarded as your comment, read the last part of my comment you fkng moron, it says,"he(meaning casey) is gone unless paul beats him to it", which in simple english means that i expected Paul to be booted and that's exactly what happened, so i was actually right on the money. learn to read you fkng idiot.
@TheKamikoo you ought to go back to school... your reading comprehension skills are severely lacking. you didn't respond to what I said at all. you think I was replying to your comment about Paul? I was replying to your comment regarding Casey's talent... in plain English. go get your mommy to help you read simple youtube comments if you're having trouble.
Casey is a fantastic, true artist. I am so happy he did what he really wanted to do, he was right anyway:) I think he would have been great doing "In the air tonight", but that is not what he felt. Who cares if this song isn't well known, music is an art and makes people feel wonderful. I hate how the music industry only likes selling "popular" and sex. This performance was wonderful, and him and Haley are the best in my opinion.
Some of those notes he was hitting, I mean that was crazy, like crazy good. I loved it. I Ioved the bass. There was some great talent on display last night, but over all I'd have to tip my hat to Casey. Best performance of the night.
awesome performance.... caseys best and THE BEST this season on idol!.... VOTE CASEY!!!! WE NEED SOMEONE WHO IS DIFFERENT TO WIN AMERICAN IDOL THIS YEAR
America, pleeeease don't fail this rare and talented true music for our generation. He was born in 90's but can make music from the last century alive. America, please wake up and smell the true music from this young kiddo. Please do not fail this musician by tell him sing something that only to please the audience. He is the one who can bring great music to America.
It takes a listening soul to appreciate Casey and his artistry in jazz. He brings his own style to the table. Jazz is all about making it your own--improvise. Casey doesn't need to scream like James or dance like drunken-chicken Paul. He brings his talents by showcasing his music sensibility. Don't bash it. EMBRACE diversity in music. It's all about the ZEN balance. BEST PERFORMANCE of Casey since Top 24. Give me a thumb up if you agree!
He's hott...
