David Radford - Audition

[SuperMetalhead96]

being italian and having listened to this music growing up, i liked him

[iloveteddybears11]

David's from my town and after coming back from American Idol had nothing left but his voice and his swollen head. Sorry David, your personality ruins what you had going for you.

[HeartlessSpirit]

He's teaching voice lessons at my school <3

[liina000]

he's one-dimensional and scott mccreery isn't?

[Emomeshanedawson]

How the hell did he make it through to even the audition round? The producers usually cut these type of people in the state auditions before the tv audition. I have no idea ho he even made it to the top 24 either. Im not saying he has a bad voice but hes a crooner and nobody in the 21st century who watches idol loves listening to that stuff. He had no chance at winning.

[Britishguy18]

@Emomeshanedawson I do. And many actually do. THATS WHY he made it to the top 24 because that kind of thinking is proven wrong :/

[Bubbles1999101]

HE SAID NO THE BLACK GUY SAID NO! HE A POOP

[Bubbles1999101]

@MIssJustineCherie \

Ha i get to see him every wednesday and sunday!

[Bubbles1999101]

[SincerelyYours224]

@absolutelyrics Hahaha wait who is thiss?? Which choir are you innn?!?!

[lyl456]

He is HOT!!!!!! plus i like the way he sings, the tone of his voice is kinda sexy. If simon says yes than he must be really good.

[locomixer]

i dont get the comment by paula

27 yes, 17 no...what?

[xJwlovex]

he's so cute!

i really love his voice and his music style.

[jaiarme]

i loooooved david radford on the show!! i voted nonstop for him lol so sad to see him go

it's crazy that i'm almost as old as he was now! xD

[ES942]

Paula is so ridiculous, this guy's an incredible singer, don't tell him to change to pop.

[sunshinebabe070]

due im from CL, IL!! haha we know his little brother

[locomixer]

finally someone thats a outside the box and the dog randy almost fucks him up.

[XxMegZxRawRxX]

this is my brothers RA this year

[inluvwu1991]

OMMGG!

Tom is in this video.

In the front seat of the car w/ him!

I never realized that! :)

Sowie.

I know David.♥

[pockyboxlover]

stupid paula hate her

[EAQB]

this guy was my RA last year, holy shit

[xosadiemayyxo]

he kinda looks like Tom from myspace lol

[mikeisLA]

LOL i've watched so many of these fucking videos. people always say "Come on dog" to randy, fucken funny as shit NEVER to simon CAUSE MY NIGGA BLACK!!!!

[Obsessor13]

His sister's in my english class!

[TheHungerGames94]

He lives in the same town as me!!!!! He sang the national anthem at the little league baseball ceremony's and I got his autograph! he is a really nice person and has a great voice :)

[zkarceski1]

damn... he is good! and i agree with you @mrsjonas4life13

[mrsjonas4life13]

I thought he was amazing!!!!  I just melt when I hear him. And that's so sad that we have to be pop to get in!

[niker411]

I think its wrong that you sohould have to be pop now a days to make it

[JKAM1108]

crystal lake! woot woot! i took drivers ed with david! lol

[OMGshNicholas]

Omg. What a charming voice. He is only seventeen and he sings like a professional man. His tone is amazing. I see the one dimension that paula is talking about. His VOICE is great, but he needs to work a bit on talent.

[MusicallyUbiquitous]

He looks familiar. Does anyone remember that boy who played the blue ranger in the Mighty Morphan Turbo Rangers series? lol

[lyl456]

OH!!! and plus he's soo hot!!!!(;

[lyl456]

What the Heck!!!!!!! Why would they say no, but at least he made it. i like the way he sings he kinda sounds like michael buble with that strong sexy voice. i personally liked it and he should of sang a michael buble one. it was funny when he said "come on, dog" LOL

[hillbillyheidi]

I remember the days when I was in love with David on American Idol. I'm still sad he didn't make it farther.

[bLitz72]

COME ON DOGGY DOG

[purenrgclubpenguin56]

i know him and he is really nice

[Nithinreddyc]

damn....this guy was my RA last semester... all that i can say is...sick

[schaap200]

mature voice for its age really. and really a classic voice, like they had like 40 years ago. i think hes great :D

[mikeisLA]

did she say study to be POP? .. fucking skank, pop sucksssss

[mikeisLA]

did he say come on dog LOL

[Hawanlaydee]

he's freakn HOT!

[Nikkixxcutie31]

David is so nice haha. i know this becuase im friends with his brother Joe. i am in 7th grade and i never knew joes brother was on american idol i just found out the other day, Joe is also a very talented in singing but i have only heard him once. I kinda feel bad for joe though because he loves to sing but in 5th grade talent show he sung a very good song and all the guys made fun of him for that. it was horrible! and Joe and David are very talented and i love them both! DONT BE A DAVID HATER!

[imakrazyazn]

OMG HAHAHAH DAVEE!!!!! ur AWESOME! T1!!!!! Hes ma RA

[lun7200]

this GUY is my RA at UofI!! lol FOSH! T1!

[WHN]

omg i was in love with him.

[annescene94]

wtf paula wants him to change to pop ?

if he has tat type of voice its kinda difficult to change :/

[iTube543]

so hotttt!

[CatzKr]

Hes got a Broadway-kind of voice.

[ai5H4]

Oh My Goodness..

His voice is so soothing, the way he sings.. it just calms me down.

Plus he's handsom lol

[mazdamaniac90]

the bad thing is American Idol is looking for "pop" singers.

[frazzler9]

no they looking for contemporary artists.. david = not contemporary

[Android18uk]

What the hell, why are u hearing his voice b4 the audition, that is silly.

[SkeeterHearts001]

I think his voice is great for that sound of music, yano? I like him. =]

[Sulstervinski]

Wow this was great....

[johndeets1]

I want his cock in my mouth

[BaseBuc]

haha

[CLARE0909]

he's adorable (:

[TreasureOne]

Heck, Buble is this bland, and he's made it.

[klinton123]

she ws just speaking her opinion..

[mashangula]

well... its true.

[Phosfate88]

He needs to actually sing next time...not let the boy next door look get him plane tickets...

[DeadFromSVK]

his mom is better but he isnt bad

[08bknapp]

That's a dirty thing to say

[coronamaster14]

he is sooo cute!

[GoldVisionFilms]

Wow...his mom's like Nicole Parker.

[trivtrav011]

wow i didn't execpet that

[Dreambro1]

OMG,, Simon ACTUALLY SAYS YES when the other 2 says no!! WOW

[alc84]

so funny how she said he is gonna cut ya when u get to hollywood but waited long enough for him to walk out first and was like bye hunni half way through saying it =)) some funny stuff

[halfcastkiwi]

Not bad. lol

[StewNWT]

lol his lil 'c'mon dawg...' is hilarious

[steamz99]

he's got a good voice, but i think he should also sing other genres of music

[roughryder5]

never would have thought paula would have said no:|

[lols0hai]

hah.

i just saw him at jewel yesterday. he was wearing like gym shorts and had a kind of beard

i was like lols.

anyone who does know david, i like how tom martin was in that car scene

AHHAHA tom martin is EVERYWHERE!

[kwj99]

wow I know him - Retard

[thephenom86]

i agree. i dont like his attitude either

[SparkyGirl151530]

hes hot haha

[iLoveKingEdmund]

i love this guy

[LilMissyJonas]

I live in Crystal Lake! I know him, he went to my future High School! No joke!!

[sunnyandkaitlyn]

One of my fave idols ever.

[duckerdog22]

way better than john stevens and i really like john stevens but he should have made it farther

[mahogany123456789]

I think he might have a problem with versatility. He does sound great for the genre, but he has to show he can sing other stuff.

[snaggle1337]

if you guys notice, 97% of the time simon says yes or no first, and then randy always copys him.

rarely does randy go first in saying yes or no, as i think he really does not know how to judge he just copys simon lol.

he says yes in the end cause simon said yes..

[CrimsonBloodRose]

It's rare now-a-days to get a voice like this that just puts a genuine smile on your face. Who cares if he's not like every other single nobody singer with a clean cut bland voice. He's talented in his own right.

[StewNWT]

He's cute! And he gets points for singing my favorite song (Dream a little Dream of me)

[xcurlycue2]

omg if you close your eyes he sounds just like frank sanatra

[CandyYum96]

he was really good! but his mom wasn't very good in my opinion..

[ox0HMiiGOdiTsmCrxo]

I thought he was great.

Very nice voice.

He's also really cute (:

[brookiey]

1:44 - 2:04 heartwarmingly great

[brookiey]

paula nasty thinky about his package...shame on her lol

[sccrguy311]

does paula understand what the definition of pop is? pop means popular. does she even know frank sinatra? this is supposed to be original. thats why these judges dont know a damn thing

[YouMightHaveNoticed]

LMAO.

[MaskedBabez]

OMG.

He's so HAWT.

[purpleshamrock17]

I graduated from the same high school as him! Not kidding! Two years after him too!

[osahju914]

why was she not into him, but into john stevens

[rjs5146]

he wasn't authentic

[osahju914]

study how to be pop.,.,..?

[pimpskater18]

i know joe radford he's in my gym class

[supertenore]

haha...paula said his package is good...

[Lovely47]

...LoL

[dskennie]

Paula couldn't even wait for him to leave before she started to talk about him...but yeah, i don't think anyone like him would ever win

[JolieWolie]

he's hot omg!

[Ninaki13th]

ok his mother has an awful voise but anyway:P:P

he is such a cutie but he still needs a lot of work

[iskrew]

aw david radford. he was so cute, even though he seems geeky

[klj591]

he has a good voice but it doesn't sound genuine. he'd probably be great singing in his natural voice.

like Simon said, "just be original". His fake Sinatra/Buble voice is too affected. BE NATURAL.

[13fisherman2007]

i know him!!!  so cool!!!

[copperhead88]

did u hear the "whooo" at the end? HAHAH

[ivetnieks]

was he cutted in Hollywood as Paula said?

[itoroi]

no. actually he made it quite far. up to round 2 of the semifinals. he sang "crazy little thing called love" and "the way you look tonight." you can find the latter in the related videos box to your left. but search for his cover of queen.. it's pretty hilarious.. in a good way! =)

[MMMazing15]

Aww I love that kitchen.

i've been in it before because my dad and his dad are best friends.

david's really nice too. he's fun to talk to. props to you david for making it so far on american idol

[LatRz0]

Respect for david.

[itoroi]

whoa.. that was kinda scary. not him but just how critical randy and paula were. wow.

[BABYJTOTHEZ]

hes a homo

[JMraiderssoccer06]

hes so cute!!!

[oliviagunapalan]

his got a michael buble' feel!!!! love him!!

[oliviagunapalan]

david i 4got how cute u were!!!

[RCmack]

David Archuleta made a lot of people forget about David Radford.

David Archuleta is a great singer, but I don't think David Archuleta could sing Frank Sinatra and Michael Buble music like David Radford can.

[oliviagunapalan]

so true.. he was my favourite in season 5 even though he got voted off quite early...

[MrJackGrayson]

I LOVED David Archuleta and had really hoped he would pull off a win this season. However, I get what you're saying. I don't think David Archuleta's voice COULD pull off a good Sinatra or Buble. Peace!

[kenyaer]

he's cute!!!!

[DaBearsFan8]

omg hey what davids little bro is like soo kol he is a really good singer and guss what HE LIKES ME YES!!!!!!!

[kirstenxlove18]

he's smexxy :]

voice reminds me of frank sinatra.

paula yerr gay, he's good stfu

[AlexHwang90]

paula shut the heck up do you even know what music is? bubble gum wanna be is not what this industry is all about.

[JLTRAIN233]

hahaha that was funny when Paula said that at the end haah

[AlexHwang90]

I want that kid back and paula shut up. Bubble Gum wannabe is not all about this industry.

[potterluvver]

Gosh, his voice was GORGEOUS. Old style? SO what?! He was lush!

[sdws17]

Astounded that they'd be tempted to turn this guy down. Also, while he did get pretty far in the competition, I thought he would've gotten a lot farther. I guess he was too old school to appeal to today's voters, who primarily vote for relatively recent sounding stuff.

[willowpuff]

"It's so 1 dimensional"

Umm... you've heard him sing ONE song... What an utterly fuckingcunttwattitheadedcocksu­ckingbitch.

[nylatinguy3000]

Paula was not a bitch!!

But it is true; I've never seen her be so 'critical,' especially with an auditioner.

She seems upset with him.

[free2bfierce]

Paula made some real sense tho even though she appears to be a little drunk!

[TooGoodForYou15]

PAULA is a BITCH.

WHat i wrong with his song?

He has an amazing voice. So what if he picked a weird song. It's the songs he likes to listen to.

He could sing any song in the world and he'd do an awesome job!

[CrystalLaker]

Crystal lake represent!

[NubianQueen413]

Wow, Simon fought for him.

[lannerz182]

i loveee him...favorite crooner ever...and paula's drugged, she cant help it

[lannerz182]

i loveee him...favorite crooner ever...and paula's drugged, she cant help it

[futurprezz]

i hate paula

[shibbby02]

old skool!!!! ya!!!

[whoaerica]

wtf paula.

okay?

hahaha

[AlishaHolybane]

I LOVE HIM!! He's very cute.

[brib345]

He is not that hot. I mean he's ok looking.

[abbyspunk]

gawd hes hott ... paula is a whoretho :]

[angelfire01]

he used to read the announcements over my school intercom every 4th hour,lol

[Lobner66]

With all due respect 2 paula, she was a BITCH in that audition!!!!

[oklahomaweather1]

look at Simons face at 1:51! Simon really likes him...you can tell from that moment on. lol I'm glad to see someone at 17 singing like this!

[Plasvi]

He is ugly! Just my opinion...

[BilliardWilliamson]

omg hes so sexy

[curliecurlz]

i wish his audition was more than just a few seconds ..his voice is so sexy !!!

[ruthhaile]

omg hes sexy

[bratpit80]

like it always been, its all up to Simon, Randy said NO, and Simon told him to change his mind, and they wonder why every one only wants to hear Simons opinion

[saferwaters]

we need more crooners on this show!!!!

[srubi74]

They let John Stevens, Kevin Covais, and Sanjaya through to the finals, but this guy got cut? Why?

[musicalgirlflute]

I have watched this 20 times and I luv it

He ROCKS and he is soooooooo cute

I luv david

[kettypoo]

i can't believe paula just said that?!!

if american idol really is JUST all about pop... i'm soooo annoyed at this program!!!

[jenstar91]

he is so sexy.

not really interested in the voice but its still good.

i say he was the sexiest guy that season though =]]

[mrh2525]

he was amazing, i cant believe they told him to study pop, fuck that, he was amazing at sinatra, and thats what he should do, america votes, paula can suck it

[billycschick]

God, Paula's a bitch lately. "Cuz ya know what? He's gonna cut ya once ya get ta Hollywood." Jesus.

[SentaBlack]

When they are in the car it sounds like they have been smoking doobies.

[chaebe90]

mmm come fly with me :p

[GaitoGirl]

FINE!!!

[sugarland377]

hes hot!

[JMMMD14]

I agree!!!!!!!!!!

[userness7]

he is so cute

[13fisherman2007]

i went to school with him his mom was our gym teacher

[rodlei]

really? is his dad a minister or something?

[mybdayin2days]

yeah i went to school with him too, but he graduated when i was just coming in as a freshman,

What a fucking homo. He doesn't even have any real talent. Every t
