[GodsSingingAngels]

[jess64ish]

She apologises as if she actually screwed something up! You just won American Idol, miss every note in the song for all anybody cares!!!!

[Jtgracer21]

Kelly is the First American Idol, and it did make the show a super Hit, but "Carrie Un derwood" is by far the best American Idol

[amberjwc2433]

I actually remember watching this (:

[LadyLuck0o0]

This is the best moment of kelly clarkson.

[boy29girl]

Now, when you think about it .....Kelly clarkson is the one that made american idol such a hit!!! Her talent, her passion, her story is what brought all this people here. WE LOVE YOU KELLEY!!!

[K38ity]

[PrUnEJuIcEtHeThIrD]

My favorite American Idol winner. No contest.

[dimondsparkle101]

[Herbistheword1994]

[heregleyee]

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL :) AND ORIGINAL..

[JesusNameacts238]

I voted for her. she was the best singer of season 1

[packersfan]

I had the pleasure of meeting her after a concert in Connecticut a few years back, and on her birthday of all days. she is a great singer and just as great a person

[wdchefdave56]

She was a student of mine about 2 years before she won . She never sang for me but was great help catering and I would give her a ride to her house after work. She is a very good person, and NOBODY has done better than her on American Idol. I love her voice and cannot believe how talented she is. Truly amazing!

[CristalcatXP]

she deserved it :)

[Arachnikadia]

wow damn, you can really hear the emotion in her singing. She never expected this.

[Mimi10037]

[nicklas12345667]

[HIVisaLIE]

[agentpickles111]

[TomFeltonismyhusband]

Now everyone knows her name!!

[HotJeter]

haha remember back when there were 2 judges, not just annoying ryan seacrest?

[mermaidblushxo]

i'll always believe kelly and justin were meant to be. :)

[StrongEnough22]

10 years later and she is still an American Idol. I absolutely adore her, her voice, her beauty, her fashion sense, everything about her I'm in awe with. She deserved to win that competition and she has never let anyone forget it. Thank you for posting this video, <3

[HIVisaLIE]

@StrongEnough22 --she fucked simon and the big Dog to win

[iluvjustinbieber9898]

[BigEasyMale]

why didn't they get rid of ryan & keep the other host. i would probably still watch that show if it weren't for the obviously gay & gross sea(puke)crest.

[hockeymadison179]

@BigEasyMale Ryan Seacrest is Epic! Little Jelly Jelly there?

[XxVeinnaxX]

[TcScherzinger29]

goshh even if this is 9 years ago, i still crying like hell @5:27 onwards!! she got no voice from crying and yet she try to sing. ahhhhhh kelly :'))

[msdontprocrastinate]

She's still super humble this to this day

[Elizeths09]

Kelly has such an awesome personality! She and I would make great friends...I wish lol

[caspersue1]

Did anyone else see Simon wipe a tear @0:55 ? maybe he does have a heart...

[DigitalPrism]

@caspersue1 Simon has a good heart. In order enjoy music you need a good heart, Simon is so successful in the music industry because he has a good heart. Is it clear enough?

[WeAreTheDreamful]

LOL "sexy man~! sexy man~~!"

[MiladyToxic]

@WeAreTheDreamful i laughed at that, too!

[stewielove101]

Kelly was so cute here!

[merboo95]

[ibo7400]

She was allready star that time;)

What a voice man...........

[Mayana81]

[itsjackson91]

[acwsar]

holy crap the crowd went crazy!

[MelodyRaindo]

press 8 on your keyboard lol

[SurvivorLyoko]

I don't know if anyone knows Parvati Shallow but Kelly looks just like her in this video....

[efnyclarkson97]

[101californiachick]

um....

....if you love kelly clarkson! (come on, if this gets 0 thumbs up I'm gonna really start to doubt the rest of kelly's fans!)

[wokdontrun10]

the best moment in reality tv history!

[RanFan030189]

2011 <3

[pussiepie1470]

0.57 did he wipe away a tear?

[KataraKazehana]

@pussiepie1470 i know i was surprised too

[missytidge]

this just proves that a true talent never goes out of fashion. shes been there since i was 4 years old and shes still churning out number 1 hits like this. I LOVE YOU KELLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[thebigsmuz]

Thumbs up if you have nothing better to do than thumbs up my comment, just like I had nothing to better to do than ask you for thumbs up in the first place. Any reason will do. Like hot dogs? Thumbs up. Enjoy videogames? Thumbs up. Think Justin could hide at least 40 pencils in that 'fro? You better believe that's a thumbs up. Gimme a thumbs up - I need shallow validation, and you need to kill a couple of seconds.

[Misscoolisabella]

Kelly Clarckson is a star in 2011 LOL

[JBlove22291]

this was the last season i cared about..

[warrenwarriors1]

thumbs up if your watching in November 2011:)

[bloodspilla55]

@warrenwarriors1 Nope I'm watching this from 1984. You don't need to beg for thumbs up like a bitch just by naming the month and/or year of the time people watch a video.

[sketchyinc]

@warrenwarriors1 Wow, I did not know the shows was that old, but wish it was 2002!

[leklekbruva]

@warrenwarriors1 faggot

[nwedossa]

@warrenwarriors1 december 2011 too !!

[richardsadilek]

9 years ago and there is 10th season now... how is that possible?

[0433850821]

@richardsadilek 1+9=10.

[richardsadilek]

@0433850821 oh, maybe thats the reason why im doing so bad at maths :-D. sorry.

[xxPsychicDetectivexx]

is it just me or was Justin TOO happy for her??

[dramanurse]

No one diserved that win more than her

[dramanurse]

simon cowl sheds a tear

[kikianna408]

its funny i have knew kelly clarkson was on american idol but she is one of my favorite singers woooooo goooo kelly!!!

[bltgradeshcool]

back when american idol was actually good!!! and peoples votes due count! i still think JAMES DURBIN should have won american idol 2010!!! UGUGHGHGHGGH

[partygal1011]

wow i LOVE kelly clarkson SO much...xx

[Ethanater11]

i cant even remember the last time i heard american idol 2002... i believe it was in 2002 but im not sure...

[SlakeDragon]

xDD she is a real person. Crying when she is so happy, on stage. Huge respect for her for that.

[ubermensch826]

COOL BEANS.

[dsr1010]

She is such a good singer!!

[gnw1115]

I love Kelly, this is so heartfelt. Cried tears of joy the whole time!

[Kaylfam5]

6:03 ok, ur realllllly flat.. please just STOP!

[Kaylfam5]

5:09 She's just so genuine! That's why I love her!! And she's still the same today. :)

[thisispauline]

sexyyymarnn sexyyymarrn 

[survivrs]

Listening to this I am not impressed but listening to her video "Because of You" shows how much she has grown. I'm assuming her emotions got in the way because to use one of Simon's words, it was hideous! She has come a long way from that time and I am glad because she is talented.

[q1wedsa]

OMG she's a superstar now!

[brinaboo821]

3:32 <3

[sarahsaidwhaaa]

ughh this is STILL so great :)

[SquishyCandyftw]

Besides Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson was the only one to attain worldwide fame.

BACK WHEN AI WAS GOOD. They should just cancel it. X Factor looks promising.

[FunFlirtyFlute]

@SquishyCandyftw I'd say Chris Daughtry sorta qualifies

[SquishyCandyftw]

@FunFlirtyFlute He didn't win though, I'm talking about ones that actually won.

[DyNaMiiKex]

@SquishyCandyftw Jordin Sparks did O_o

[SquishyCandyftw]

@DyNaMiiKex true... but I haven't heard about her in awhile.

Kelly Clarkson is making a comeback. Carrie Underwood was hosting (or is going to, I didn't watch it) the CMA's... where's Jordin? lol

[jantheman2011]

thats my bitch!!!!!! i love her

[1950BobbyF]

It's 9 years later & Kelly is still my favorite Idol winner & her finale is still the best one. It was new & there was innocence & less commercialism surrounding it than there now is. Kelly's choice as the winner gave Idol credence & legs on which to build.

[thegrandmasteryoda]

@1950BobbyF Absolutley!

[OstrichChick]

The moment that started it all. :) I love Kelly she's so pretty.

[Avrilfan990]

Still my favorite winner followed by Carrie and David Cook.

[ELzAGemini]

how fast did she recorded "a moment like this' during that time?

[211alicat]

It's more awkward when the three top comments are the same! -,-'

[gillespiemikayla]

@211alicat yeah it would be

[musclecars60]

Who the heck is that horrible singing at 6:02 drowning Kelly out? Sheesh, that must have been embarrassing for her to watch later.

[musclecars60]

I've never seen more feeling go into this song.
