  • Who is HE ? PRO SINGER?

  • I screamed so loud that I lost my voice the next day when I sayed good morning to my mom!

  • it was good, i love danny, and he doesn't HAVE to know the words to every single song in the world.

  • lol @ 1:50, " i leave it to the professionals"

    But I dont care what anyone thinks Danny is amazing! I love the church part! And Adam still lost so why is American bitchin

    over it

  • What kind of video camera do you use? Great footage despite the humor of the situation.

  • Canon PowerShot SD1000

  • BAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

  • (Mouth dropped open....muffled laugh). I like Danny, but come on, you don't know the lyrics despite the sheet? Song is a classic!

  • maybe he's just tired... he's got a lot of activities that day...

  • ...excuses. When you are a singer, forgetting the lyrics is inexcusable. Have you heard the death screech? I dared to listen to it once, luckily I'm still alive.

  • INexcusable to kids whose mommies made them feel LESS than.. and who strive to be PERFECT so mommy will love them Youngblood.. Thank goodness not EVERYONE has that problem and can overlook a human faux pas.

  • @sYoungblood07 DUDE PIPE UP AND GET LOST! IT WAS NOT THAT BAD! WE HAD TO DEAL WITH ADAM EVERY WEEK AND WHO COMPLAINED? NO ONE? BUT DANNY MAKES ONE MISTAKE AND EVERYONES READY TO THROW HIM IN THE FIRE...NU UH! DANNY SOUNDS AMAZING IN ANYTHING!!!!!!

  • @syoungblood07: newsflash: its called being human: ppl make mistakes! no ones perfect, not even YOU! sounds to me like ur the one making excuses for urself to put danny down cuz u obviously have no self esteem or life, seeing how u spend ur time on here saying shit bout him when u dont know the first shitty thing bout him ok! ur only making urself look really stupid by tryin to bring danny down. seriously, leave the guy alone.

  • @davidcooksweety Relax, he lost...move on! Need I mention that you are bothering me with this ridiculousness 9 months AFTER I gave my FIRST ADMENDMENT RIGHT to speak my opinion? YouTube comments are for speaking thoughts and voicing opinions about the video being posted. I'm sorry you don't understand this concept. In all of seriousness, you're the one who said he was "shitty"...not me. Go back and read your mess of words.Thanks sweety. xoxo

  • syoungblood07: it must not bother u too much if u take the time to respond to me. having an opinion is one thing, but coming on here and putting ppl down: thats another. if someone comes on here saying their shit bout s1 i like, then i have every right to stick up for them! get over it. no need to get defensive, ur the one coming on danny gokey youtube talking shit bout s1 u dont know! wut i meant when i said that is dont come on here talking shit bout ppl u dont know and judging them!

  • it seemed like his back up singers took out the show?.. But it's fine...Danny did prove many times that he is an amazing performer...he's just maybe too overwhelmed so he forgot the lyrics.

  • Awful

  • This is pretty pathetic. It was his time to leave the show. Also, david cook sang chris cornell's version of billie jean.

  • whats that have to do with anything ?

  • you guys are all so rude. you dont even know him! what has he ever done to you? hes a person and everyone makes mistakes! its not even a big deal! that doesnt mean hes a bad person or a bad singer so everyone can just shut the fuck up please because dannys amazing and so talented..he deserved to win american idol and hes gonna be hughhh

  • agreeeed... its not like this was a performance on the show... maybe he didnt have enough time to actually learn the song... he still definitley deserved to win! i love danny gokey!

  • I Liked him in a begining ..... But in this vidio he is POTHETIC!!!!! He is not a performer ! THANK YOU BACK UP SINGER FOR REMEMBERING WORDS!!

  • i never knew billy jean is a duet? HAhAHA ROFL

  • omg make it stop!!.......he ruined billie jean

  • he totally forgot most of the lyrics!!!! Wow, and he got POWNED by the backround singer, she can SING. I love Danny, but he had 2 go.

  • wow....i read on another page to come and see this disaster and I'm so glad I did!

    Worse than I thought it would be, cause I am definately not a Gokey fan.

    Wish there was a guy as good as David Cook this year (and if anyone suggests Adam is - you need your hearing checked). After David did such a mind-blowing performance of this song, I can't imagine what Danny was thinking do it after David remastered and perfected it.

  • david cook is great but come on that is totally an opinion that you adam isnt better than him. it doesnt mean you need a hearing check. they are both almost always pitch perfect and some people will just like adams sound better... some like davids. its just a matter of opinion. i like adam a tiny tiny bit better. agree to disagree?

  • EPIC FAIL!

    And people are upset this guy went home? ..ya looks like they are upset too lol.

  • When I saw his first audition I thought he was good. However, constantly bringing up the dead wife for sympathy votes, the smug grin, the god bothering and the general dullness of his later performances bored me to tears. I'm sure he does appeal to a lot of people who enjoy MOR easy listening, and thats fair enough. Personally I find him nauseating.

  • Wow that was worse than I expected, and I did not expect much coming into it.

  • personal stuff aside, i think danny has really good vocals. this performance billie jean however, it's not a good performance at all, pretty terrible if i'm honest

  • Danny will always be my Idol!

  • Yaaaayyy,

    the douche is GONE.

    good fucking riddance.

  • :D

    i know!!!

  • DANNY FANS - vote for Adam next week! Join fans of Allison, Anoop, Scott and others and vote for Adam!

  • no. i aint voting for no one after that outcome.

    great job, america

  • right now i wish i was deaf.

  • rofl

  • all the Jesus in the world won't make this guy straight, or anoint him with any actual talent

    in fact, this guy making it to the top 3 should be proof enough for anyone that there is no God

  • EPIC FAIL! what a douche! he thinks he's too good to remember the lyrics?

  • Wow. It wasn't great. But WTF? Okay, you don't like him, but all of this is REALLY unnecessary. Why is everyone saying he's terrible like he's committing huge crimes or he's a terrible person? Why is everyone calling him a douche and a loser just because... I don't even know?! Jesus, I don't think about religion or departed family members during the competition. So why does everyone keep bringing it up? Can someone reply and tell me why all this bashing is necessary, please?!?!?!

  • about 95% of the people here are against him and think he sucks (and yes he's a terrible person). that's gotta be saying something.

  • how is he a terrible person?

  • i can tell you how but the list will be too long. anyway it doesn't matter now cuz he's gone! FINALLY!!

  • blueeyedcutiee95:they bash danny cuz they are stupid ppl with no self esteem nor a life so they spend all their time putting others down cuz they are insecure with themselves. maybe they are threatened by dannys talent, i dunno. but that is no excuse to be treating him like this: he is a human being just like the rest of us and makes mistakes too. no ones perfect, haters arent perfect either. they dont know danny, who r they to judge him or anyone? haters are dumbasses lol.

  • danny is the worst contestant left please go home tonight!!! go kris

  • fail.

  • Danny Stay home!!!!!!!! All i hear is HERE WE Go!!!! U should have screeched!!!!!

  • The word for today boys and girls is

    REHARSHAL... This is what happens when you think you're all that.

  • Uh we in the TRUE CHURCH do not sing rhythm and blues nor pop songs and then break out SHOUTING!!!!!!!!!!! What has the world come to????? (Granted the band played some hot shout music that I would have shouted to) but uh, I dont get it. You go from Billie Jean and then break out worshipping and then into a holy ghost fit????? STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I agree! You can't sing about the devil and then worship God in the same beat---whether its a dance, shout or not!

  • I don't know who is worse...the assholes that are the actual contestants on the show, or the assholes that worship this nonsense. The lyrics "blew away"....real musicians that actually remember lyrics like Paul Simon, Barry Manilow, Carole King et all must be shaking their heads as to what people accept nowadays.

  • that's embarrassing...I mean every singer should know the words to any song they perform. Every voice major is expected to do that, and it's inexcusable for a professional singer to not do the same.

  • BTW NOBODY listens to Clay Aiken!

  • LLLOOOVVVVEEE HIM!!

    Go Danny!!

    4get all u HATERS!

  • i like danny too.

  • Looks like it was a lot of fun! He did a great job, I wish I could have gone.

  • lmao

  • that concert was so much fun :)

  • If Adam wouldve performed this song here, he wouldve rocked the fuckin house.. DANNY GOKEY needs to LOSE ASAP

  • GO HOME LOOSER!

  • I think we might see Deja vu America. The final from a bunch of seasons back there was Clay Aiken and Ruben Studerd. Ruben the boring church singer but has a pretty nice voice then the good singer but gay Clay Aiken.

    Ruben the religous singer won. And NO ONE listens to his music but Clay was more famous. I really hope this doesn't happen again with Adam and Danny if they are the final two : /

    Make the right choice tonight America...

    VOTE FOR ADAM OUR TEDDYBEAR!! :D

  • Did that backup singer say "i'm not the professional!" lmao. 1:50

  • Haha ya that backup singer totally just owned him @ 1:50.

  • he did not. somebody get this a guy a youtube vid and show him another Idol (winner) who sang this song... he didnt forget the lyrics. and did better. helluva lot better.

  • OMG I'm so embarassed for danny! he just totally destroyed a classic. A second classic i should say after his terrible rendition of Dream On. During Adam's homecoming he did Black or White amazingly as did Kris with Man in the Mirror. but this guy? terrible

  • So bad it could become a hit! As we say in the Uk (adapted advert....) if Carlesberg made pop singers .... they would not have made Danny! Cannot find any show versions of his Idol performances... have Fox blocked them?

  • how do you not know ANY words to this song?

    what an ass...i can't believe he's still on AI.

  • I don't find him appealing to the eyes or the ears...blah

  • learn the F'n words.. I cant beleive he didnt know the words to the national anthem and asked for them to be posted to sing to . RIDICULOUS! This is supposed to be our American Idol people?

  • Danny Gokey Billie Jean

  • What does his dead wife have to do with anything? He can't sing, and that's the final point.

  • OK this just embarresing! OUCHH!!

  • Danny is a great guy. He proved at Idol that he can sing.

  • what a twat. how the hell did he get so far in the competition? he's an average karaoke singer at best.

  • I'm not a Danny fan, but it seemed like everyone was having a fun. Beer and brats, friends and neighbors. Sounds like a good time was had by all!

  • that was so fucking awful, like everything about him is

  • How did this guy get this far? I wonder what the producers of AI had in mind when they pimped him over and over......

  • I sooo agree with u. compared 2 adam he is a moth.

  • Two words: dead wife.

  • Well at least he didn't scream the hell out of it!

  • Yea...with his last AI performance my cat fled, my walls bled and I have no more ghosts left!

    I'm calling the pope...

  • Mr Christian singing about an illegitimate kid? what the?!? This guy is such a loser.

  • He is just trying to be cool and failing. He is trying to be Adam! that is why he sceached soooo badly on his las AI performance. Have pity on the widower. His wife believed in him and I did really like him at the beginning of the competition and Hollywood week., but since B & W I am devoted to Adam. He is my colourful butterfly in a world of moths.

  • he is so full of himself.

  • God,that was awful !

    I think that the woman who was singing

    sang more than he did...!

  • He is so crappy. And he can't even learn the freaking lyrics? Ugh. Well, Adam is about 2,700 x better than this asshole...

  • Please, please God, don't let this douchebag win. >__>

  • This is scary...what was that....

  • ha ha .. dokey gokey really screwed. not as bad as idol voters though. vote adam , vote for real talent.

  • He does act like he has already won AI & can get away with anything... sad...

    Vote for Adam Lambert!

  • Big respect to Back-up singer, she should been the one on american idol

  • God This is Painful to watch BLAH!!

  • Ai will edit this part out of his homecoming, they won't want the world to see what a fucked up this is to their show and will only prove that the show is rigged, what a waste, he called himself a christian and using his wife and the name of god to get votes, this is shit, if it wasn't for Adam this season i wouldn't be following this show this year, VOTE VOTE FOR ADAM, INTERNATIONAL GLAMBERT.

  • the sad thing is i almost used to like him. before i saw this.

    what a goober.

  • wow seriously i mean this is just god awful...why would he sing this song if he doesnt even know the words!!! He has got to go!

  • From the church.......?! What a true christian ..........00 People ,Wake up,please!!!!!! All he is trying to do is: use religion to promote himself!!!!!! VERY LOW TRICKS !!!!!!!

  • I guess AI has figured out that religion is a useful tool just like the Republican party has known for years.

  • Even the backup singer deserves to be in the top 3 more than this douchebag. FAIL.

  • I'm from the church???? What the hell does that mean???? What a freak.

  • The backup singer should get his airplane ticket back to Los Angeles.

  • Talk about butchering a song. As if he didnt screw up Dream On as well - one of my favorite songs EVER.

    VOTE FOR ADAM! no one is safe.

  • He should have gotten eliminated instead of Allison :(

  • Allison was soo much better. This guy is awful!

  • I just can't stand him. He seems swarthy to me.

  • This boring fuck is in the top 3 cuz hes got family and friends that open up 12 phone lines at offices and redial his vote number for 2 hours straight. i've read about it.. thats why i know AI aint fair and need to change up the rules...10 votes to a household!!!!! I mean..Adam almost lost a few weeks ago..come on now! are you fuckin serious????

  • The back-up singer is more talented than him!!! HAHA that's the funniest part of the video!

  • I can't believe this hack is in the top 3.

  • Why didn't he choose a song he knew the words to? This is embarassing for him.

    Rock the Vote for Adam tonight!!!

    Adam is the deserving winner.

  • Comment removed

  • What an incredible mess, lol

  • WTF !!!!!! he most go home tomorrow !!!!!!

  • wtf this is horrible

  • terrible!

  • Even my daughter knows the words to this legendary song!!!! Come on, it's Michael Jackson!!!!!!

    What happenned Danny??????????? I pray you will do well on Tuesday night!!!!

  • he's not taking it seriously i assume -.-

  • How does someone not know the lyrics to that legendary song?

  • He is the worst contestant this show has EVER had.

  • I don't keep up with AI whatsoever but honestly, how does anyone NOT know the words to this song? Shitgoddamn.

  • The background singer was very good.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHA breath... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHA Culty Danny can get stuffed. He repulses me!

  • I LOL'd. Man, thanks America. /sarcasm

  • Proving he deserves every ounce of that "vote for the worst" endorsement

  • Danny Gokey, I hereby nominate you for the 2009 "Biggest Douche in the Universe" award. You Douche.

  • Poor Danny! Apparently he lost the lyrics as the sheets got caught in the wind!! Thankfully, he had the backup singers to at least knew some of the words!!

    Danny must be really embarrased!!!!

  • He should be embarrassed. He's in the top 3 on the biggest show in the country, and he's being honored in his home town, and he couldn't bother to rehearse his songs and know his lyrics? Let' s hope he goes home this week like he should have weeks ago.

  • sucks for him, but generally speaking professional singers don't carry lyric sheets on stage with them!

  • becuz he's not a professional singer (not even remotely), and he never will be.

  • he is such a joke. if he wins he will be another taylor hicks

  • man he ruins every song the contestants sang last season. Stand by me I personally didn't like it (Archie sang it amazingly last year). Dream On was horrible (Michael Johns' was BRILLIANT). And now Billie Jean.. one of David Cook's best performances.

    can someone bring back season 7 please?

  • Man, this is really embarrassing. Why on earth would Gokey attempt to sing a song he didn't know the words to?  How did he make the top 3?

  • What a LOSER!!!!!

    He makes Kris look GREAT, vote this geek off the show.

  • Because they're all superhuman and don't ever make mistakes. ;)

  • i want world peace.

  • EPIC FAIL...

  • It's unbelievable to me that Danny Gokey made it to the Top 3. This guy is not an original, creative singer. He's a charismatic young church guy who happens to have an ok voice. IMO, that does not make an American Idol. When you think of all the amazing, untapped young talent out there, it's really a shame that we're left with Danny who gets all this (undue) national attention. I just hope America wakes up in time to prevent a complete joke of a season.

  • (I tend to think that American Idol is usually a joke)

  • Me, too. Lambert's sucked me in this year. Iraheta too, to a certain extent.

  • That was bad.

  • He should really have been saving his voice for Tuesday.

  • Yeah. He even said during the concert that his voice was shot from rock week. I don't think that singing 9 songs helped. ;)

  • Which makes him even more of an IDIOT!

  • First off, who doesnt know the lyrics to this song?

    Second, he didn't at least try to learn them before going on stage?

    I'm sure Allison would have learned them :/

  • Everyone google EW Idolatry. Its a weekly video blog of American Idol on Entertainment Weekly. Its great and really funny! Go now!!!

  • or they could just go to ew(dot)com....

  • It is a joke that Danny is in the top 3.... that was just awful. Sad.

  • Comment removed

  • Gokey is the biggest Douche that's ever been on AI. Even bigger than Constantine!

  • GOKEY is so FUCKING AWFUL!!!

    DORKY wannabe singer

  • Oh dear. Danny seems like a nice person and all, but his singing doesn't come close to Adam's.

  • Adam Lambert Roxx =)

  • Vote for the Worst Victory!!

  • actually,since he doesn't know the song(obviously)and since only his fans are there,why not just put that mic on his ass and do a wet fart.his fans would say- that was ARTISTRY!and some would say DUDE,THAT WAS DA BOMB!

  • why do I feel that Danny forget who he is???

  • HAHAHAHAA what a loser!

    I can't believe he doesn't know the words to Billie Jean! Even i know it! like come on!

    Wow i would never want to go to his concerts....

  • The backup singer leaves Gokey in the dust. Half the time it seems like he's not even looking at the audience. Him over amazing Allison? America got it completely wrong.

  • KARAOKE GOKEY.

    if this is what his concerts would be like,

    i don't know anybody that would sit through this shitfest.

    to quote Simon Cowell, "Clumsy and Ammatureish".

  • even if he wins...i smell another ...what's his name again?...the gray haired guy who won the season that Daughtry was on.

  • please let the top two be Kris and Adam, plz

  • This could be our American IDOL? What a joke. The whole world loves ADAM! If he wins..the show is a flop.

  • The whole world likes Adam? I don't think that you can put ultra-conservative people in that group. Hehe.

  • Actually, you would be shocked to find out what "ultra conservative" people like!
