  • This is awful.Some people should just leave the classics alone.His voice doesn't match the song,just like a lot of those teenie boppers who don't sing from the belly!!!!

  • Great song, Daughtry is #1!

  • he sings this well

  • The most successful "loser" ever. Great treatment of this song.

  • chris does an amazing version of this classic....

  • Taylor WHO?

  • Nah...not feelin' this. He's done a great job covering some tunes....Madman Across the Water by Elton John, for example. But he bri9ngs nothing different or fresh to this particualr song. You might as well listen to the original.

  • Daughtry is an awesome band! Chris Daughtry is a great singer and he's a hunk!

  • I could have gone to some local dive to hear a wimpier version of an already wimpy rock song. This is horrible. I heard it in the grocery store and I thought it was some kind of elevator music rendition. No matter what you do; shave your head, get tattoos, make intense faces; you're still a milk-toast American Idol wannabe star, Daughtry. If you tracked me down and kicked my ass for saying that, you would still be a wussy rocker.

  • @GafKergh Then don't listen to it.

  • AMAZING DAUGHTRY

  • oh, so good, so damn good! Love it! Love Daughtry!He's just the best among the all American idols ever :) Love the voice, love the sound, love the band, everything!

  • better than foreigners version just saying

  • @Daughtry372 haha no...

  • 3:02 amazing voice

  • What an absolutely lousy rendition of a classic. The opening hook in the original was what makes this song, not to mention that wicked guitar break in the middle of the song. This is a cheap knockoff. If you didn't have the strenght of the original to lean off of, this song would never have seen the light of day. Boo!

  • Best Daughtry song EVER!!(even though its a cover)

  • He is one of the good American Idol finalists.

  • amazing

  • Although no one ever could/will match Lou Gramm, this is by far the best cover of this song ever recorded- not to mention better than the phony Foreigner that dares play without the legend Lou. It’s sacrilege.

  • @xramcam Agreed Lou Gramm is better but Daughtry is damn good cover.

  • kills foreigners

  • @juggforty4 amen bro!

  • This guy's a fricken Rock Star and they put him in 4th place. What a dumb show AI is. Lol Taylor Dicks won. They should do a show of, where are they now, on these guy's.

  • Awesome ! great song ! luv it !

  • lol he kinda remindes me of vin diesel by his looks :p

    he is an amazing singer!!!

  • It sickens me, the thought that he didn't win idol

  • @Sonicdude20 ...or did he?

  • @moron32 No, He lost to Taylor Dicks.

  • @Sonicdude20 no, i know :) my point was...Daughtry made it big....whens the last time you say Taylor on mtv or the news?

  • I fu%#ing love this man. Grrr. He did a fantastic job. Best cover of this song I have ever heard.

  • Damn...good voice......gives credit to the original band. Leave the politics out of it..this guy can sing!

  • Best Foreigner cover ever recorded. Somewhere Lou Gramm is smiling.

  • alejandra mart i likeed it so i got lesin to it lot of tims

  • somehow i can related him with nickelback...and maybe linkin park i love this 3 singers

  • @jeysson14 you mean 2 bands and a singer =)

  • This a tough song..does anyone have a live post?

  • absalutley amazeing

  • Feels like the first time that America is drivin into socialism by a President who doesn't have a clue. Obama will have a clue in 2012 when he is sent packing back to Chicago and when his precious health care plan is repealed. Cheers.

  • I think even Lou Gramm would approve of this cover.

  • When I get into acting/modeling, this is my song<3 hahaha!

  • Im going to their concert : May 13, 2010, Edmonton Alberta Canada!

  • Chris has THE sexiest, most passionate voice in rock right now. Saw Daughtry in concert and completely fell in love with them. I usually hate modern rock, but I've loved this guy since Idol.

  • sounds pretty good to me....the original is better but this is not bad

  • Way to ruin a classic song

  • @SigandGibbs Lou Gramm has said he loves this version...so I'll take HIS opinion on it over yours.

  • @trinitymike It doesn't help that its linked with Obama propaganda.

  • @SigandGibbs How you figure THAT??? The video shows McCain supporters as well.

    And wasn't ruined at all...Celine Dion or Shania Twain doing "You Shook Me all Night Long".... THAT'S ruining a classic song.

  • @trinitymike ew, you're right

  • This song is all about sex so how does it tie into voting but not a bad cover of it

  • yeah i wondered that to xD

  • way to ruin a classic

  • wow this is one of the worst fagit cover douchebags ive ever seen

    they are so goddam lame, taking fame for somehting they didnt even make... disgusts me

    so gay, took a great classic song and made it all shitty mainstream crap, what a bunch of bullshit

    eat shit daughtry you fagit piece of shit

  • I"M SURE!!!!!!!!

  • ur right....one problem.....the people this was 'directed' to......TOO young to know WHO actually first MADE the song!!

  • Check ou Daughtry's version of Poker Face!

  • Chris Daughtry def. should have won American Idol! Taylor Hicks isn''t even known anymore!!!!

  • YES!!!!!!

  • Taylor who?

  • Taylor Who?

  • awesome!!

  • wow great cover

  • Its not very good, sorry people. I hate 2000s remakes of 80s songs with a huge passion

  • shut u know he is good gosh

  • He has got one of the most amazing voices I have ever heard!

  • Well honestly as with any cover it is never exactly the same,, Foreigner being the original its hard to redo the BEST!! BUT aI do love Daughtry and his spin on this as well as I walk the Line that he did on Idol, and also Wanted Dead or Alive that he has redone by Bon Jovi~~ Daughtry is an incredible talent :)

  • great job! I saw foreigner do this in concert many years ago. wow again awsome job.

  • TOTALLY GREAT!!

  • no way this sux

  • Not bad and I respect Daughtry's vocal talent but this cover is missing the "balls" of the Foreigner original. Where's the classic guitar intro? Lou Gramm's the man.

  • This guy is great!

  • Oh Chris, you did this one totally my man, Great! Foreigner would be proud. I think you'd give Kelly a run for his m oney.

  • foriegner is proud, i just saw them in concert not too long ago and they commented on this song.

  • What'd they say?

  • I totally agree. Lou Gramm and the band must be proud with this verison by Daughtry. He honors them with this. The passion is there-its almost like Lou in his prime and such a joy to hear.

  • wow...LOU would be proud of this version. Hope Lou is on the road to recovery. Sahhks that he had a brain tumor and almost died!

  • dang daughtry is so talented they did an amazing job redoing this song

  • Feels like tonight is the first time

  • feels like the first time....<3it

  • ...first like the first time....

  • I Like both versions. My band is covering a hybrid of the 2.

  • Daughtry could sing 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' and it would be awesome!!! He's the absolute best!!!

  • caraaa fikaria perfeito se o daughtry fisesse uma parceria com o chad do nickelback

    fikaria mAARAA :O

  • not as good as the original but still awesome job and also the patriotic look...not goin with it

  • WTF!!! HOW DARE YOU!!!!!

  • Paying homage to a LEGENDARY band & Lou Gramm is GR8 in my book! Kudos Daughtry!

  • At least this song is used for something important....and not a damn car commercial.

  • good cover but not being used in the right context

  • Foreigner's song used for that crap?? .. c'mon the (pseudo)patriotic context smashes down the original song intention :S aagh

  • i don't think anyone's really worried about what the song's being used for. at least i'm not. i like it cause lou gramm and foreigner are amazing, both versions of this song are amazing and daughtry is amazing.

  • Yeah, like Lou Gramm wrote something deep....I bet HE'S happy it's been used to generate voter turnout...

  • I actually really like Chris Daughtry's voice with this song. It sounds really good.

  • so sweet

  • Ohh Emm Gee!!!! I love this song!!!!

  • it doesn't sound like they changed it very much. I wonder how much money they had to pay to use this song since Foreigner still tours

  • i like this version but not as much as foreigner

  • why did they do this song

  • It's not an Aerosmith song, it is Foreigner. Mick Jones wrote the song.

  • Very nice and good song that really deserves to be associated with First Time Voters and also with Mr. Obama election as the first Afro-American President in the History of the United States. Very appropriate video all the way! Thanks Daughtry for such good songs, keep going on. Regards.

  • he's not african-american. he's black. He was not born in africa, therefore he is not african american

  • Daughtry Rocks!!

    This cover is awesome, The Band Is Awesome,

    Now That's ROCK

  • Hello friend your music really is good I hope that they come to méxico to give a good concert bye-bye they continue touching this way. Regards from guadalajara méxico
