@stigmatic79 I disagree. I could see why this could be disliked by fans of the original song. Though, I'm a fan of the original song, I like his twists on the original.
You silly little girls only like the song because the guy's good looking. Go back to listening to the mindless auto tune, it's all you deserve or understand. This guy is a joke and so was this season of idol.
@tdkittle Perhaps you'd be interested in Madonna's version of Don McLean's "American Pie". Who needs all the lyrics to enjoy the song?? As a true Simon and Garfunkel fan, I'm disgusted by this version. Not the arrangement or singing, but the complete absence of most of the words!!!
@ColdCalc if you listen carefully to the melody of this song by Lee, you will love it!!! Like Simon said, it seems like it was just created a week ago and it was brilliant!!!
I looked this up from some glowing comments about this performance on a lyrics page for "The Boxer". They raved about it. I don't. How can he "feel it" or "be the Boxer" when he only sings about 25% of the lyrics (if that). Plus, sorry Alicia Keys, but he can't "be the Boxer" because the Boxer isn't the narrator of the lyrics. The last verse skips to this character, and that's the only mention of the Boxer -- perhaps the best symbol of the song, but not the singer himself.
@ColdCalc its not his fault that he can't sing all the words. There is a time limit for how long they can be on the stage and all contestants have to shorten the songs. If you listen to the studio version he sings the whole thing.
After all that time and all the things hes been trough this year with the album and all ... i still enjoy that performence and got goosps, i remmber that was my favorite at his time in american idol .
Paul and Art are still light years superior. And they are both almost 70. Not saying hes bad, but dont try to compare him Artie's pipes and Paul's brain, can't be done.
really love the song i almost cry it gave me strength so inspiring i hope that my cousin hear this to give him strength he can't move on from the death of his father when talks about he always cry and i all so cry bcoz i was remembering the time that my uncle is still alive this song really so inspiring
Prbly the most true and sincere and least of a sell out of all the Idol winners and this performance and his Hallelujah performance are at least MY favorite...im glad he won..after Andrew got voted off i started to root for Lee a lot more
I swore I was done with Idol the year before, but I'm glad I watched this year. Lee is by far the best of talent ever on that show. Pure honesty in everthing about him.

Lee, i love your new album. I love how much you have grown and how much confidence you oose and the PASSION unbelievable. I love Live it up, It's got to be love amazing!! I love all the songs all very different with that amazing voice, passion heart felt words you are so true to yourself keep it up Lee. Not fair come to Australia i want to see you LIVE!!! or better yet come on Dec 3rd my 40th id love for you to be here for that WOW!!!!!!! Dreaming i know! Proud mum
Lee you are truly amazing passionate true to yourself. I LOVE THIS SONG Only sung by you!!! It gives me goosbumps i keep listening to the songs you sang on idol pitty i cannot download them on i tunes but love your new stuff so up beat gets me motivated in two seconds. I can't wait for the album. Aussie mum who is so proud of you i can only imagine how your parents feel. truly inspirational!!!!!
@melfel100 ok im all about this rendition but how can u say that u dont like the boxer by simon and garfunkel? it is a classic... u need to check your ears
@RTLippy Relax The song is Amazing! Simon & Garfunkel are fantastic. Lees voice is amazing and the two for me were amazing. He has great choice in music. Go Lee!!!!!!
@n1kingopopfan well, i am really a fan of lee dewyze but the song doesn't makes sense for me. because of lalalala.. but its okay his voice is still amazing
I LOVE this song. especially when Lee sings it. He was my fave, and I bet my parents he would win. I won like 5 bucks. lol I also called it when David Cook and Kris Allen won. Im American idol psychic. aha
Where is Lee? IS he going to be a real star? Where are the big new clips? Oh yeah he is real man. Today entertainment world respects crazy Lady Gaga, trash Ka$a, gay Lambert, and trashy rappers. He deserves more.
@Hakob84 I agreed with you, until you said "gay Lambert"...He's more than just gay. He's an amazing singer, and doesn't need to be classified with two people who use stupid costumes and weird lyrics to make them famous. They can't sing...Lambert can...and so can Lee...
well its good he has great taste in music but i did not like it, if you listen to the real song by simon and garfunkel, its longer, the pace is faster, and you find yourself mesmorized by the harmonies and vocals and guitar work in the song, not to mention the lyrics, great song, not a great cover. sorry.
@JEFFMM71 You need to take into consideration...it is Simon and Garfunkel... STARTS...... Lee just starting up...he put a good twist on the song. NO ONE expected him to be as good as Simon and Garfunkel....cuz that would be absurd....he did VERY well on his own version...but of course no Simon and Garfunkel.... They are legends! Butt Lee felt this song, was in the song...was in his moment....made himself part of the song....he almost teared up..he felt the song and that's what matters!
Great performance. I think one of Lee's greatest talents is the ability to take any song, keep the underlying essence of the song, but restyle it to meet his unbelievable voice ... and essentially end up with a BETTER song! On AI Lee took "making the song yours" to a never before reached plateau. Among other things, that's why he won the competition. His future is unlimited.
@wazoocity You say he took the "Making the song yours" to a level never Reached before, but are you Forgetting Adam Lambert and all the ways he would change his songs to make them kick ass!
This is a really, really good cover of this song- so much emotion is conveyed by his phrasing, and the tone of his voice is something special. Its beautiful.
@arvidflow Yes... the original version is faster, and it will always be far surperier to any cover. I'm only 17, but I don't like it when young people perfer this and they don't respect the classics. The Boxer isn't a song your suppost to wave your arms to.
i wish the studio version was more like the live! cuz the live is amazing! Awesome!! and everyone who says raspy singers are a dime a dozen i would like you to fine one as good as lee in now a days!
If you don't like Lee, then find somebody else on utube you would enjoy and stop the negative comments, you bashers sound like idiots that have no life. Just face it, you will never be as famous or even as talented as Lee. So STFU!!!!
Ignore this mingheanghui idiot davidcooksweety. mingheanghui is just another no class Crystal fan bashing Lee thinking he's doing her a favor. When I posted on Crystal's video saying to stop hating because some people liked both Lee AND Crystal ming went off on a 3 post rant about how great Crystal is, how rude Lee is and how I should get off Crystal's videos. In other words, it's just another sore loser hypocrit crying about how Crystal is & will always be the runner up on season 9 AI
@Cuzifeeliket: i know. i just dont get y they have to take it out on lee and his fans: lee won fair and square, they need to move on and stop dwelling on it. mingheanghui isnt doing her a favor by bashing lee, hes only making her look bad and thats a fact. wut video did u post on? j/w im just sick and tired of the nasty posts some crystal fans leave on youtube about lee. crystal came in runner up, crystal fans like mingheanghui should be happy for her, she came this far didnt she?
I like the guy, and I think the "rasp" is very underrated in the American Idol and pop crowd. Listen to John Lennon and Julian Casablanca, dudes are great. HOWEVER, this song doesn't need this style and Simon & Garfunkel will never be beaten. The Boxer is truly their song.
@zachandthemachines A lot of the under 20, maybe 25 crowd probably never even heard this song until Lee did it. For them it's his and this is the version any others will be compared to. Lee kept the heart and soul of the song but updated it which is exactly what he should have done for the show. But I know what you're saying. I grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkel because of my dad.
too generic for me. i feel like i'm listening to nickleback, hinder, three days grace, bush etc. over and over every time he sings. that rasp will ruin the nodes on his chords anyway.

i do have a life ...a great life by the way just to let u know...maybe u r so pissed unable to accept ppl opinion...as i said b4...i still prefer other great rasp singer than him....to me he is already outdated what wrong with that...Any music industry will know they are looking for something new and different every year....
LEE DEYWZE you are "SIMPLY THE BEST"!!! You are like a magnet, with your unique voice and overall good persona you ATTRACT!!! More Power To You LEEEEEEEEE!!! (and for those who keep bashing LEE, get a life! If you are Crystal fans, do her a favor and stop doing these negative things you are all doing, you are just giving her a bad name!!!)
to me he is nothing unique...a lot of singer has that rasp voice...for me i will find something different...bono, bon jovi they are great rasp singer...and so forth
@mingheanghui maybe to u he is nothing unique, but i think everyone is unique in their own way. alot of singers have raspy voices, but i think its about ppl likeing the singers voice and the music: thats all that matters. everyones diff and thats ok. wuts wrong with liking someone with a raspy voice? i think he has an amazing voice. love u lee!
@davidcooksweety What kind of music he is creating he is singing covers beside I prefer strong vocal raspy voice like Bono what wrong with that Lee is not my cup of tea my choice and what is wrong with that too..To me he is too weak vocal.. I love Bono

oh nooo... this is so bad :-(
not his singing but the music. the original song by s&g is so much better.

@arvidflow Yes... the original version is faster, and it will always be far surperier to any cover. I'm only 17, but I don't like it when young people perfer this and they don't respect the classics. The Boxer isn't a song your suppost to wave your arms to.

If you don't like Lee, then find somebody else on utube you would enjoy and stop the negative comments, you bashers sound like idiots that have no life. Just face it, you will never be as famous or even as talented as Lee. So STFU!!!!

Ignore this mingheanghui idiot davidcooksweety. mingheanghui is just another no class Crystal fan bashing Lee thinking he's doing her a favor. When I posted on Crystal's video saying to stop hating because some people liked both Lee AND Crystal ming went off on a 3 post rant about how great Crystal is, how rude Lee is and how I should get off Crystal's videos. In other words, it's just another sore loser hypocrit crying about how Crystal is & will always be the runner up on season 9 AI

@Cuzifeeliket: i know. i just dont get y they have to take it out on lee and his fans: lee won fair and square, they need to move on and stop dwelling on it. mingheanghui isnt doing her a favor by bashing lee, hes only making her look bad and thats a fact. wut video did u post on? j/w im just sick and tired of the nasty posts some crystal fans leave on youtube about lee. crystal came in runner up, crystal fans like mingheanghui should be happy for her, she came this far didnt she?

I like the guy, and I think the "rasp" is very underrated in the American Idol and pop crowd. Listen to John Lennon and Julian Casablanca, dudes are great. HOWEVER, this song doesn't need this style and Simon & Garfunkel will never be beaten. The Boxer is truly their song.

@zachandthemachines A lot of the under 20, maybe 25 crowd probably never even heard this song until Lee did it. For them it's his and this is the version any others will be compared to. Lee kept the heart and soul of the song but updated it which is exactly what he should have done for the show. But I know what you're saying. I grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkel because of my dad.

too generic for me. i feel like i'm listening to nickleback, hinder, three days grace, bush etc. over and over every time he sings. that rasp will ruin the nodes on his chords anyway.

@mingheanghui maybe to u he is nothing unique, but i think everyone is unique in their own way. alot of singers have raspy voices, but i think its about ppl likeing the singers voice and the music: thats all that matters. everyones diff and thats ok. wuts wrong with liking someone with a raspy voice? i think he has an amazing voice. love u lee!

@davidcooksweety What kind of music he is creating he is singing covers beside I prefer strong vocal raspy voice like Bono what wrong with that Lee is not my cup of tea my choice and what is wrong with that too..To me he is too weak vocal.. I love Bono
