  • Amazing!

  • haha I love when simon says "booo" 3:26

  • Comment removed

  • One of my favourite idol-adam lambert performance, but i gotta say that simon is very annoying especially on this video

  • seriously i wanna cry

  • he is really cute in this vid :)

  • Ryan Seacrest??

  • Firs time i ever saw simon say Buuu :D

  • honestly how did he not win?!?! stupid homophobes

  • I wonder what Simon whispered to Paula just before it end? o.O

  • 2:44 "Better than the original"

  • did i see the Kardashians at 00:00?

  • sry but all you haters out there...adam took the essence of the song, if you can't see that then you don't know the original :3

  • Love his voice, hate his face

    dont care if he's gay or not just hate his style

  • fucking kardashians were there lol

  • @TheAlcavallaro lmfaoooooo

  • to all you adam haters ... lets see you do better ...ha cant even come close.

    Didnt your mother ever teach you if you dont have anything nice to say... 

    watch out for karma its coming for you

  • Way to kill a great song by changing the lyrics, tempo, and terrible fucking singing.

  • @LifeWithLou13 looking for attention?

  • @LifeWithLou13 that's not plausible. I mean, it's Adam Lambert. Saying he can't sing is just ridiculous.

  • @globin3 Whats ridiculous is this cover of One. Just my opinion being a big U2 fan.

  • @LifeWithLou13 well okay, it's your opinion and you're entitled to have one. But saying he can't sing just because you don't like his cover... that's a bit much. He can sing, everyone agrees on that.

  • @LifeWithLou13 I thought it was awful, really bloody terrible, and I remember watching and thinking Simon was an idiot name dropping how he Simon had to phone up the band to ask and only he Simon could do it.

  • He fucked up that song baaaad

    @Bumblybee256 you must be eating and living in shit if you think you have good taste. One is one of the best songs ever. Learn to live with it.

  • @clauskanal Lol. You're a sad person if you become angry and rude because someone else doesn't like a song. It's crap,that's the truth.

  • He screwed up the song bad

  • In other news......worst song EVER

  • @Bumblybee256 Someone doesn't have any ears I guess??

  • @Superkolofantalismus On the contrary, I have the lcuky combination of ears with good taste. It's a god-awful song, especially the 'love is a temple' part. Ugh.

  • @Bumblybee256 ohhh really ???? that why u still listening to it after 3 yrs ???

  • @JOHANAusa I've actually only discovered Adam lambert now. I was listening to all his clips. Rubbish song.

  • Who he sleeps with ain't relevant to his voice.

  • perfect perfect perfect !!! 

  • Adam Lambert is amazing! people need to get over themselves, so hes gay,and? how does his sexuality effect your life in any way? were talking music here, and he is simply one of the best male vocalists weve had in the longest time.So get your homphobic comments and shove them down your throat you self ritous fucks.

  • Adam Lambert is totally number one!!! Best singer on Idol ever!!

  • amazing! i love Adam so muchh<3<3

  • Adam you schmuk. If only you would have kept the glam gay thing under wraps you could have been the biggest superstar in the world. Man I thought you were sent here from God to save rock n roll.

  • He's a great artist of all time!

  • How cool must have been to be in the audience when he performed.PFFF !!!

  • WOW! I have kept myself from watching this for 2 years. I cried when he sang this live because I knew he wouldn't win just because he was gay. True love is so hard to find, if you are lucky enough to find it it should matter what sex they are. LOVE IS LOVE.

  • Although Adam's vocals are AMAZING during this performance, I have refused to re-watch this for over a year. I bawled when he sang this on AI because I knew he wouldn't win just because he was gay. WTF? How did he not win?

  • He is just the greatest. He has a voice like an angel but it can also be very powerful. The best performer on Americn Idol EVER !!

  • One!

  • No one can ever top Adam Lambert he is now and will always be my American Idol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • wow he looks just like his dad!

  • So...he didn't win because he's gay (from what I've heard). I can't decide if voters are shallow or thick. It's a TALENT competition, not one based on a personal opinion of the performer and his/her life - and he can clearly sing.

    And anyway, what does it matter that he's gay? He's amazing.

    (I also have a special little love for the ex-homophobes here who have changed. Lovelove.)

  • Simon: "BOOOOO"

  • the 300,000 is me....the 3420 is the rest of yall!

  • Aaaahh .. so f****king love him (L)

  • He is sooooo sexyyyyy....is it normal...

  • beautiful performance, adam. absolutely BEAUTIFUL.

  • this was Adam's worst performance of them all! nothing compared to his week before on rock night

  • "one" is definitely not the number of times i hit the replay button

  • hhaa

  • Flamenco, Randy...? FLAMENCO!!!??? Honestly, sometimes I doubt any one of the judges besides Simon has any musical expertise at all. Randy just throws around random musical terms that he obviously has no concept of. The two women just sigh and have rolling orgasms in their seats without offering any sort of real feedback. Simon, without you, this show is nothing because none of the judges are qualified except for you. Please save the world of televised vocal performance contests.

  • @adamdecoder What the hell are you talking about? When does Randy say Flamenco? Simon is the judge with least music expertise of the panel. He doesn't know anything other than what would appeal to him and some people that may share his taste. He doesn't sing and he Never says anything about the vocals, the notes or anything, only talks about the quality of the performance, for his taste. Honestly, Simon doesn't help at all music wise.

  • @halabrdave I'm pretty sure simon has worked as a vocal talent scout for some recording labels, and as a producer. I can never find the video again but there is an episode of britain's got talent where a little black boy was up there singing and simon interrupts him and you think he's going to tell the kid he was terrible or something(it was actually kind of bad) but he asks the kid if there was a song he would rather sing because the song he was singing didn't seem to match his voice. The kid

  • @halabrdave named a michael jackson song and they queue'd it up and the kid freakin nailed it. Simon could tell the kid had talent but was singing a song with a bad vocal range for him.

  • @hzuiel Of course he has done great stuff with many in the industry, made some serious money. But he never says anything musically related, he is all about the business and who can make him the most money. Sometimes he is really stiff and doesn't say the right things. I can tell you he is just yes/no type of guy, doesn't see the good/bad things in the performance other than if it was "horrible" or "brilliant". Overall he doesn't help, he praises or trashes and his word is law. Well, not for me.

  • I bet they were fighting who's gonna get Adam!! xD

  • very good.......Made the song his own and beautiful as the original!!!!! great.......

  • Thumbs upp if you thought it was one by metallica!?

  • His vocal command is outrageous!

  • It is so nice to hear the softness of your voice along with the strength.

  • not only did Adam make Simon proud, but all of America, gays straight and everyone in between !!!!

  • just listen to his voice. the way his voice harmonises witht he song!!!!!! ONE word!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!

  • Wimp

    Justin Bieber

    Beginer

    Cool

    Beast

    BOSS

    GODDD

    Adam Lambert

  • @lollipops236 You're a queer.

  • @lollipops236 HAHAHAHAHA LMAO!!!TRUE

  • Adam always makes a song his own...his sweet yet powerful voice is always full of so much emotion and soul...He IS Unbelievable

  • Kim, Kourtney & Kris in the crowd :D

  • I'm going to announce this here on youtube.

    I was brought up as a homophobic guy, im 18 years and for 18 years my father has hated homosexuals and everything about them, and in turned forced me to.

    But seriously, adam lambert you amaze me.

    I love your voice, don't care if he's gay or not, i love him (not in a gay sense)!

  • @garadol good to know you are aware of the fact that you don't have to feel the same as your father. When I see homophobic people, I blame the parents, because I know that when you've been told something your whole life it's hard to get away from that. Thinking for yourself and making your own opinions is the most important thing in life.

  • @garadol I don't know if you'll ever see this but just wanted to tell you that I admire your independent thinking. I too was brought up to believe that same sex relationships were wrong. It took discovering Adam Lambert to make me rethink my homophobic attitudes. I believe that everyone should have the right to love and be loved, to pursue a career and not have their sexual orientation prevent that right. I absolutely love Adam and his vocal talent.

  • People actualy picked on that lol Amazing!!!

  • He's amazing. It's unbelievable that he sings better than a majority of stars in the world. Wow!

  • is the jury guy in white is british,,,??

  • @zoyataylor yep , his name is simon cowell

  • @zoyataylor yep

  • i loove it!! better than the original song!!

  • Adam makes me smile :)

  • Comment removed

  • bit over the top in spots... but not bad

  • @maximumvalues WHAT?!

  • Makes me cry ... every time. Wonderful!

  • 13 people are number two

  • first time simon boo-ed at another judge's comment. simon is very defensive :P

  • and fyi too see simon lose it and then clap at the end is a something you well never see ever again with any idol contestent

  • when someone still puts shivers down your spine after almost 3 years, you knows he original

  • i would have rather heard him sing One by Metallica :)

  • @tim101482 i love both songs!

  • The best American Idol has ever seen. <--- Just my opinion <3 I love you Adam!!

  • It's so disappointing because he should have won.

  • i love this song!!!!!!!!! when he is sing it XD

  • Simon couldn't write a poem about toilet training, let alone arrange a song.

  • are people still comparing durban to lambert? lol oh give it up it was a pr stint to produce star quaility back in idol, and cos durban was similar to lambert they used him. Durban has talent, but he doesent have once in a generation talent like lambert. People forget how pitch perfect adam was and is, where as james misses alot of notes. And no its got nothing to do with adams vocal training, adam has a gift.

  • @3ku1 Amen

  • He is the best artist American idol has ever had!

  • @tonicmass World wide, not just america!

  • Jesus wept! Are Durbin fans still trying to compare him to Adam Lambert? Let it go.

    As for bringing age into it, there are plenty of performances of Adam at 22 and younger that are easy to find on here. Age has very little to do with it. Age (and experience) can give you more confidence, training can teach you to make the most of what you have, but natural once in a generation talent? You either have it or you don't.

  • The smart judges were gone, only the dumb one is still here.

  • Every time he sing like it's his last time, amazing!

  • Why can't I watch this on my iPod anymore?? Nooooooooo! D: :,(

  • the other day i heard this song and im like OH! I KNOW THIS SONG! IT'S ADAM LAMBERT'S! wait, why is someone else singing it? and then twenty minutes later i realized it's u2's xD

  • @ 0.35 Paula trying to mention she had lunch with bono haha

  • LOL @ Simon's stained shirt :p

  • I sincerely believe that if he had kept this as balladic as he did with Tracks of My Tears (my personal favorite performance of his, btw) and Mad World, he would have won this season. He puts so many nuanced changes of his own into his interpretations, that if he had just stuck with how he sings the first 45 seconds of this, this would have gone down as an all-time great up there with Bridge over troubled water, etc. I still love him tho.

  • Adam Lambert VOCAL range is very multiplex @hyperiontheevil. I personal like the fact that he didn't play it safe on AI & he sang each songs with his own interpretation, mixing different vocal registers. He used Falsetto (*scream* as you describe it ) Modal register, Vocal fry register and Whistle Notes, he basically Sang is heart out on that show.I don't no what type of music you listen to, but each to their own taste I guess. Adam Lambert is AWESOME! I wish him all the success in the world <3

  • yeah youre right. some of the best vocalists in the world and millions of people are idiots. tototally butched it.... hells the matter with you?? screaming?? you mean godly?? he represents talent and art. there might not be another vocalist on his level in AI history.. i thought pia mighta been close but america fucked her over lol

  • He's a star.

  • This song always made me cry and I don't know why. Maybe just because Adam sing this song??? He's voice INCREDIBLE!

  • I'm a huge U2 fan...and Adam was my favorite performer from this particular season....however, I hated what he did to this song.

  • @dbbd022 I disagree but everyone's entitled to their opinion ^_^ I just wanted to point out that the arrangement that you hated was not only Adams, but Simon's contribution as well

  • @ludifig16 That's fine....IMO they missed the mark - I didn't like Simon's arrangement, or Adam's performance. I realize I'm in the minority, but I sort of side with Randy with this one.

  • Adam Lambert Is number one!!

  • @MsDominic20 and he always will be lol

  • i could watch this a million times & still love him- he's an angel stuck on earth.

  • "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" -Simon XD

    GOTTA LOVE THAT! ADAM IS AWESOME :D

  • ouff, you can have my babies any day <3 LOVE YOU ADAM !!!!

  • Biggest fan of Adam Lambert here.

  • @sasunarulab no me

  • Super

    

  • all the season i wasnt the biggest fan on Adam

    BUT wen he hit that note in this song

    i was taken away and for the moment on i SAW his talent a a true star being born :)

    Amazing Job Adam

  • If you haven't listened to the studio version of this, you definitely should. The live version was shortened so much it didn't build properly.

  • Oh my Goddddddd fuckk is that Drake LaBry at 2.48????

  • @TeamJacob1903 yeah is Drake ,Drake was Adam' s boyfriend

  • @smecherita98 Oh yeah, I knew that I just didn't think Drake would show up at AI and I was like o.O ^^

  • Simon looked like a pleased little boy when he was talking about asking permission from Bono... a rarity!

  • Adam sings this song SOOOO much better than Bono, he's sings all his songs better than the originals

  • @judybus1

    Now I know Adam's a great talent but saying he sang this song "SOOOO much better than Bono" is gross injustice!

  • Je surkiffe ! Je veux ça voix mdr

  • would like to see him perform this song with mary j blige.

  • made me cry ): i love Adam:X

  • Anyone else didn't see the dislike bar?

  • Still cant understand why think people this caterwauling is in any way shape or from "good", any clown can scream at the top of his lungs to try to add "heart".

    Crap is crap

  • @hyperiontheevil You call that a scream? It's called head-voice and he has amazing control over it. I would love to see you "scream" and see how different it actually is.

    Ignorance is ignorance.

  • @hyperiontheevil why are you trolling? You have multiple disparaging comments on this video and it just seems unnecessarily rude and hateful

  • this is a pop version, this song will always belong to u2, the best song of all time

  • Wold have been good if he hadn't done the usual American 'over the top" bit of screaming. I wonder if any of these people actually listen to the songs they are covering?

  • Comment removed

  • Love,Love,Love. To hear Adam sing any of these songs is just Awesome. He is a Winner without American Idol. Can't stand that show now. After Simon left, Paula, and Adam. I don't care who tries, it's not the same, the new judges say that people are good when they aren't, so no one with the balls to tell the truth.

  • It's great song!

  • he did good with this, but lets all admitt it, nobody will ever live up to bono

  • @summersidnie That's what people say when they're so used to the original that they can't see beyond it... And yes, I'm a huge fan of U2 since the 80´s.

  • I like how Kara got all smug, I guess she didn't hear that Simon took part in the song arrangement ^_^

  • So how much does this Adam Lambert charge for singing lessons? My friend James Durbin was wondering.

  • @stewierocks846 hahahahaha thts a goog one

  • @stewierocks846 Silly stupid crap from you. Durbin is ten years younger and has a great future. Lambert is already a professional.

  • @Mark6024 lol umm techniquely so is james, he prob has a label now, so what makes james any less pro then adam, what the age difference, 7 years? ? In music thats nothing. Adam has it james doesent, thats not a go at james he is a really good singer, but talent like adams only comes around every generation

  • @Mark6024 Completely agree. 7-10 years in the business is alot of maturing. The Beatles were together for 8-9 years before they hit it. James is terrific, Adam is a polished professional, years and years on stage. He is an actor, singer, and a thrill to watch. Knows at all times what he is doing, and is fearless.

  • @Mark6024 Actually adam has had tenor, countertenor, classicall, most advanced training anyone ever had from 8 years old to 15,. combined with light operah training. But at the end of the day adams musically gifted, I just diddnt see that with james, but thats my opinon. Also adams personaility etc.

  • @Mark6024 Finally someone that understands! I cant wait till Durbin releases his first real album!

  • @MrFunnyBunnies good luck to Durbin with his album, but what does this info got to do with Adam Lambert tho! They're completely at different "LEAGUE" please lol even mentioning his name next to Adam is quit insulting I'll say . :D

  • @MrFunnyBunnies if your expecting rock dont even dream, james well go pop because thats the demographic, if james went rock he wouldent last a year.

  • @3ku1 Look at Chris Daughtry... He went rock and look how successful he turned out. Look at Green Day their rock and look how famous they are.

  • @MrFunnyBunnies Bro chris had one hit thats it. Im not saying going rock is bad, im just saying for a new artist coming off idol rock isint a mjor outlet, the pop industry is where you wanna be if you wanna be current. Going throw back rock isint relevant anymore. You forget adam only had two or three rock songs, adam is the best artist in the industry right now because he can do any genre, he cant be labeled, so its good he has a range in his first album and future albums.

  • side note; I think james needs to learn how to control his notes if he ever wants to do hard rock, expect a pop album from him, not sure how it well sell, adams a bigger personailty .

  • @stewierocks846 not even Chuck norris can give singing lessons to adam

  • Comment removed

  • Randy critisizes him and SIMON boos him. If Simon loves him then he should have won.

  • 3ku1... Understand the difference between Musician(songwritter, producer,instrumentist) x Vocalist (singer) x Artist (all the arts envolved) x Performer (carism, stage presence). Casey is indeed the most creative/genuine Musician that ever came across american idol. Look how he swiches some songs with his bass playin. Adam is indeed the most complete performer/vocalist that ever came across the Idol stage. Couldnt say more bout it.
