  • John Lennon's version was better

  • I remember this blowing me away <3

  • wtf? this song isn't supposed to be sing like that this fag ruined it! R.I.P John u_u

  • Please, people. No version comparison. PLEASE.

  • It's a great cover...but seriously? Lennon is a WORLD Idol, there will never be another like him. Kudos to David, really...but nothing compares to John.

  • i dont like hes singing with the longing of the words. like ''YOU MAY SAY AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'M A DREAMER. Its better when he sings like john lennon

  • Nice try kid. But you still can't beat the original.

  • Outstanding. i love this kid. <3

  • You know what? :D I could not care less about Lennon and stuff like that ... this boy delivered a performance of his life ... and I stand in silent admiration, as I always do in the presence of such pure talent ... :)

  • better than lennon

  • The vocals are good but the arrangement is awful.

  • is weak as tea!!! john lennon forever!!

  • both versions are very different and is a very ignorant statement to say one is better than the other. This is a great cover of an already great song, period

  • way better then john lennon

  • What are you talking about? People still compare John Lennon's original and David's version. But that is not the issue. Nobody touches Lennon's genius song writing skill on this song, but it is David Archuleta who sang the song so well with strong conviction that it revived the message of the song that Lennon tried to tell.

    Even now people still talk about this performance because it goes down to the history of Idol as one of the best performances.

  • Jennifer Hudson is better and more powerfull!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • david A was robbed this year.

    david cook sucks balls.

  • No one can compare David's with Johns because we all no that John definately sings this better R.I.P John Lennon

  • fantastic

    He is such an amazing singer

    and this song is so deep

  • i think people should stop comparing David's version to Johns. John Lennon wrote this song with a deep message and people should really try and think that the point is, the message is getting spread regardless of who is singing the song.

  • Soni right... but he is good :]

  • lennons is so much better archolota

  • to: gosfordabercrombie.

    ok nvm i just checked your site..and you obviously don't hide that your gay. so that comment i made before probably didnt offend you. so sorry bout that.

  • well it DOES take one to know one, gosfordabercrombie.

    btw, i think abercrombie is a lil bit gay for a guy to like though right? i mean half naked guys is like their logo...just sayin

  • amazing vocal..love you david

  • I'm fucking RETARDEDLY obsessed!

  • YOU R THE BEST DAVID!!!!!!!!!

  • diS DuDe SunG dis SOng

  • i love you david archuleta ! ! !

    you're the best in my heart...

    i really like this song...

  • I LOVE DAVID ARCHULETTA!!!!!!!!!

  • In my opinion, this is the best version/cover of the song. While John Lennon was a very very good song writer, his singing was simply average,

    and he did not show as much emotion as DA did by singing the song, just my opinion.

  • Yeah I like Lennon better...all his warm voice and lyrics...

  • this guy did a good job at covering it but

    the original will always be better

  • @ShadowPhoenix16 John Lennon's voice was simply average? lololololololololololol

  • i love him

  • i love him too =]

    david is the best!

  • elow tyron..

    bgo b kyong classmate??

  • Amazing Talent

    Lennon Would Be Proud

  • I like David's rendition of the sound, but I definitely prefer the original over it. Nothing, in my opinion, can overtake the emotional experience that Lennon is able to cultivate with his original version.

    Archuleta deserves a lot of credit, however, he made this song his own in a lot of the correct ways.

  • I tear up practically everytime I listen to this.

    It's such a simple but profound song, with SUCH a good message

  • Sound great. But sounds better if you add &fmt=18 after the adress in the toolbar!

  • that actually is how it sounds on youtube before... idk but they removed the stereo thing... :(

  • Amazing job remastering the audio for this video. The sound is absolutely exceptionally sharp and clear. And of course with David's voice to top things off this is just a flawless clip.

  • Whenever I could use a pick me up, I listen to this version of imagine. Some may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. Ephesians 3:20

  • 1. One of THE BEST RENDITION FOR THE NEW GENERATION OF IMAGINE.

    2. DAVID ARCHULETA IS GIFTED HE DELIVER HIS SONG SO BEAUTIFULLY AND WITH CLARITY AND YOU CAN FEEL IT.

    3. YOU CANNOT DENY THAT HE RESUSCITATED THE SONG BACK TO LIFE - PEOPLE GOT INTERESTED ABOUT THE SONG IMAGINE AGAIN.

  • Awesome singing.

    Though his occasional girly giggles make me cringe.

  • i like David a lot,he´s amazing! It reminds me a bit to Naim Thomas (myspace/naimthomas) who was a contestant in a program similar to AI and was kick off in the last programs. Hope that wont happen to David so keep on voting for him!! Btw,if you wanna listen a bit of Naim Thomas just check out his space,he also has an amazing voice and similar style. Good luck David!!
