  • oh dear god no. Delta owns this. Delta owns them all. This pales in comparison to her version.

  • kelly is probably the best out of the group, but to me this is, and always will be delta's song

  • Its a close call between Kelly and Carrie but Kelly by far has the best voice. <3

  • delta was freaking amazing at the commenwealth games nothing will top that.

  • this was nice but no where near as good as when delta sang it.

  • Carrie Underwood is a current Grammy Award nominee and a five-time Grammy Award winner, a two-time Academy of Country Music Entertainer of the Year, a three-time Country Music Association and ACM Female Vocalist winner, and a proud member of the Grand Ole Opry. THE BESSSSSSSSSTTTTTT ! :)

  • delta goodrem wrote the song and i think she sings it way better

  • Carrie Underwood is the best there!

  • It suck Delta goodrem did it better.

  • Carrie <3 Where is David Cook?

  • GOODREM WROTE A FABULOUS SONG!

  • delta goofream does a great job at this!

  • this sucks. delta is by far the best

  • I have to agree Delta made this song what it was and it was always be hers her voice is amazing this didn't seem powerful enough there voices didn't match.

  • shoot me now! :O This is terrible!

  • Delta Goodrem wrote this song and owns it when she sings it, this mix up SUX

  • simon and paula <3

  • If you want to hear the original, spine-chillingly amazing version from the 2006 Commonwealth Games, then look up the live performance. Seriously, this song was so uplifting and awe-inspiring and Delta Goodrem nailed it better than any of these Idols put together. No amount of Idol magic can wipe away the original

  • carrie all the way

  • They sing this way better than Delta Goodrem, this is amazing. 

  • And Paula Abdul is worse than a Migraine! That woman needs to just GO AWAY!!!.

  • you americans.. you always try to make everything better. you always copy australian stuff, like kath and kim, and now this. Delta goodrem is the only amazing singer you will never have. she is amazing

  • @BeautifulVampire123 here here!

  • Sorry but absolutely nothing compared to delta

  • WOW Good attempt!!!! Just not your song... or yours... or yours...=/ just keep away from goodrems stuff and you'll be alright -.o

  • Gives me chills EVERY time :)

  • Delta Goodrem sings this song better than ANY of them.

  • @taylorswift4dawin Damn Straight!!!

    

  • @taylorswift4dawin Yes. Yes she does.

  • @taylorswift4dawin well she did write it for herself, so you'd hope so.

  • love them, but not to be mean i think adam lambert also deserves to be here , he was just mind blowing

  • Kelly and Carrie <3 best American Idol winners ever.

  • We Love Tasia so much!!

  • I personally dont like this one at all. Delta is pure talent and no hype'd up popstar like most singers these days. It's a pity she's not very well known like these singers who most definitely buy their way into the industry.

    She is up there with legends in my eyes. Her voice is that of an angel <3

  • paula and simon <3 cuties

  • delta's the best obviously

    but carrie and jordan and david sounded lovely :)

  • I love Delta Goodrem 's verson MORE AND MORE. Only she can sing perfect

  • David Cook nem pôde ir...Mas quem liga pra David Cook quando se tem David Archuleta, né?

  • Wow. Delta wrote this?

  • Soul Patrol

  • Kelly is in center stage because she is the #1 best idol & she started it all! <3

  • Fantasia in the house!

  • Carrie and Kelly's voice... Amazing.

  • Only person missing is David Cook.

  • carrie's stunningly amazing!

  • how i wish kelly and carrie make a duet <3

  • @SyafiqClarkson me too

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Kelly Clarkson is the best singer there! :)

  • The original by Delta is better :P

  • Somehow Carrie and Kriss are the ones that stand out for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • You can pick Fantasias annoying voice from a crowd.

  • Delta Goodrem's version for the Commonwealth Games is so much better! AUSSIE AUSSIE!! WOOO

  • KELLY is the .great..no doubt about that...carrie is good...

  • @RyanCooleyFanx She needs a better tone.. she sounds like a frog.

  • "See what we've all become." Such a perfect line!

  • Kelly clarkson best american Idol the best singer i love her rock voice its amazing she the hole package.

  • @katiebear365 I agree! Kelly is AMERICAN IDOL.. and no one else! Can't wait for her new single this July!

  • @RyanCooleyFanx She can sing, but she sounds like a frog. She strains too much and she sounds so nasal. I cringe listening to her voice.

  • I could just EAT kris allen. Ps Kelly is the best.

  • i love jordin sparks intro it was soo great!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • simon and paula at 2:03 <3

  • kelly no sweat!! lol haha

  • im sorry, but as much as i like some of these artists, WHAT HAVE THEY DONE??

    /watch?v=FF-aZzUAZrk&feature=r­elated < really watch that, that is how it is meant to be sung :) this version might have sounded better with less people, it just sounded all over the place. < my opinion, so calm your tits.

  • kelly is deff the best outta all them :)

  • @jojoxx1231 i know! i love him!!! thanks! :)

  • Besides the winners, what seasons were the contestants from? I saw season 1 and season 7, but was that it? Please reply!!

  • ruben's face when fantasia came in LOL

  • i love them, but they killed the song.

    

  • I LOVE CARRIE UNDERWOOD!

  • where is david cook?!!? 

  • @shopoholic995 He was at a charity event that night. I was sad that he couldn't be there:(

  • Sad to say but all they really did "butcher" this song. If you listen to Delta Goodrem's version and then compare it to this ensemble version, you can tell it was meant as a solo or duet, perhaps even a trio but not more than that. I love Kelly and the other idols but they really didn't do this song justice.

  • who are the people in white? like the top 4 ones of every season??

  • Kelly and Carrie are the best. It's sad how some of them kinda got shot in the dark. Like, Rubben. He was so sweet and such a good singer. :( I'm surprised Justin didn't have a more successful career. He was really popular on Idol.

  • watch?v=WsSGOz6Bf6Y

  • i think rubens the best idol

  • It reminds me The Lion King! *_*

  • i love how kelly just blows everyone out of the water on the last note. The only true Idol

  • @lilmizannoyin no not at all..

  • @blue2slugger2 oh i'm sorry, am I not allowed to have an opinion? My mistake

  • @lilmizannoyin no yer not you over did it

  • @blue2slugger2 How did I overdo it? By stating MY belief that she was the best singer on the stage or stating MY belief that she is the true American Idol? Just because you may not agree with it doesn't mean I am wrong. So just shut up and move on. Oh and by the way "yer" is not a word, it is spelled "your". Moron

  • @lilmizannoyin hey theres this new thing called growing up, you should give it a try itll be good fer you

  • @blue2slugger2 You can't spell or accept that someone may have a different opinion than you, and I'm the one who needs to grow up? Honey you aren't worth anymore of my time, I can only hope that someday you will learn to shut your mouth.

  • @lilmizannoyin ya u just over did it

  • all ai contestants and winners were ok but kellys performances andmusic in my opinion will stand the test of time. i still hear her songs all over the world when i travel

  • Tayler Hicks on before Jordin Sparks! HAHA

    Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson are the best.

  • Kelly and Carrie are probably the most well-known, since I didn't even know they were Idol winners before liking their music. And probably the most talented ones as well. I'm not saying that the others are not talented, just maybe not enough to actually sell millions of albums.

  • Just glad got to see David Archuleta on the stage...wish he could have had a small solo part:(

  • Whatever you guys say, Kelly is more versatile than Carrie.

    Whether that makes her better is something for you to decide.

    For me, Kelly is the best.

  • oh shit,

    only kelly is telorable

  • The Australian singer Delta Goodrem wrote this song for the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Australia back in 2006.

    Please people listen to her version. These guys as much as they may be good singers in their own right, have butchered this song.

  • @Darksteel1335 agreed!!i first watched this version(which is a good one) and then i read a comment about someone called delta.i listend this song and a few more and since then i am a fan of delta and i'm sorry i didn't know of her before this vid....

  • @Darksteel1335 ah, concidering kelly herself didn't know the song until just a couple hours before the show, I'd say she did a great job.

  • I listened to Delta cause she's one of my favorite singers and her version is perfect. I think that AI version would be better if only sing Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood, the others to them houses

  • @Darksteel1335 I love this version and but i must agree with you.. Dekta Goodrem's performance at the Commonwealth Games was.. well, I literally don't have grammar enough to describe! I didn't even know her until the idols performed this song! She is perfection!

  • @Darksteel1335 They Killed it, insulted it too be honest, seriously I like Kelly Clarkson but she did a major injustice to this song. Forever Delta!!!

  • I'm so sorry but they butchered this song. I love American Idol but Delta did it SOOOOO Much better . Like 1000x better. :(

  • Little kelly clarkson in Middle haha :)

  • Good to see them singing Delta's song!! ='D

  • Carrie's part is the climax. Carrie's so stunning !

  • kelly is the best ♥

  • Why Paula and Simon didn't get married? :(

  • @SteelAVic18 because simon enjoys the same fruit paula does.. if you know what i mean

  • david cook couldn't be there cuz he was busy doing a charity event that he was committed to i think

  • i like how you can distinctly make out kelly over the others at the very end

  • kelly clarkson seriously wins by far no matter what lady gaga lady gaga kelly extravagant beats and much truth

  • Sooo cheesey! Haha this would not have gone down well here in Britain :)

  • Where was David Cook?

  • yuck, Delta Goodrem ftw. hehe :D

  • This will always be sung best, when delta sings it :D

  • where was David Cook?

  • @castleinvader He was at a benefit for cancer in his brother's memory, understandable why he couldn't be there.

  • The dude bellow me sounds stupid, its all I can do to hold my tongue on the comment, but I will. Kelly Clarkson did not sound bad lol If anyone sounded bad Kris Allen did. Your just a carrie fan, most all of her fans are really jealous and just downright rude. I am a kelly fan, but I admit the obvious. Carrie and Kelly were okay on this.

  • wow kelly clarkson sounded so bad

    carrie underwood all the way !

  • Carrieee is alwayss awesome!!!!!

  • carrie underwood was the only one who could pull this off!

  • I saw Kellys concert in Manila. her songs are sang by a lot of singers there and played on the radio a lot.

  • ive never heard or even recognize ANY ofthese people apart from Kelly, she's pretty famous in the UK. it really shows when you put them all together just why she is so big is because everyone sounds pretty average next to her, although the blonde one to the left is good :)

  • @razmataz13drums You mean.. you've never heard of Carrie Underwood? Keep it that way. Lol.

  • @spidey678 haha i have no idea but i dont exactly have any intention of looking her up or anything. to me all these people always sound the same.. bleh boring!

  • @razmataz13drums lol yeah... Carrie Underwood's voice is painful to listen to..

  • @spidey678 Well what do you know? A Mariah Carey fan hating on Carrie! Somebody clearly is mad at Mariah having been superseded and abandoned without sentiment in favor of a better and more likeable singer like Carrie Underwood. There is no need to go dissing her on all her videos. Kelly and Carrie are equally talented and have often been described as voices of a generation by many of their peers. Try listening to her do Paradise City if you don't like the twang. She's a country singer, duh!

  • @ASparkOfUnity No thank you. It's only natural that Mariah's career has taken a back step obviously she's been in the game for 20 years. What Mariah achieved.. Carrie will never. Just cant! LOL. Who cares about Carrie outside the states?

  • @spidey678 Me :D I'm from Germany and I love Carrie Underwood <3

  • @spidey678 im not dissing or upping anyone but here's the facts. kelly's pretty famous in the UK i hear she's big in quite a few places, Underwood, or anyone else in the American Idol thing? only a couple have done maybe one song we know but we have no clue, never even recognize the name tbh. mariah obv is famous.. but hey world fame doesnt necessarily equal talent i mean look at Bieber

  • @razmataz13drums That's true. But Bieber.. =x. He doesn't deserve the fame he deserves.

  • @spidey678 beiber.. i guess its just so not my thing i shouldnt comment... but i really dont undersatnd the beiber thing, especially when i compare to my own musical taste where hardly any of the bands i like people mostly have never even heard of.

  • @razmataz13drums Well, with carrie, she's an american country music singer who's done maybe a few pop songs. Country isn't popular all over the world. There might be a few countries that recognize it, but it just doesn't grasp people on a wider level as pop, rock, soul and/or r&b. Kelly is versatile and has done many different types of music under the pop/soul/r&b lables. So she has more support over seas than other AI winners have. Funny thing is, Kelly doesn't know it. lol

  • @Funnypandalonies yeah you're right actually which is a shame. but yeah if its good music and your genre you'll find it. i love Ryan Adams who's a country singer but then again he also does rock so i see what you mean. kelly caters for a wider audience and is easier to listen to for a non american if that makes any sense. some american country stuff tends to have that typical american sound. no i guess she wouldnt.. which is a shame because she deserves it

  • if paula wouldnt have left simon have wouldnt and he would of never got enganged

  • @xPaulaAbdulLoverx

    that is such bullshit

    he left because of his xfactor show which is in the UK

    to carry it on the usa !

  • @rustydevilll what was i asking you NO AND THATS A BAD WORD MAMA PAULA WILL BE MAD AND SIMON IS BRING HER TO THE USA AND HE EVEN SAID THE SHOW WASNT THE SAME WITHOUT MAMA PAULA

  • Aaahhhhhhh........KellyClarkso­n!!!!!!!  my American Idol

  • Comment removed

  • wheres david cook? :[

  • hahahhahaahahahahaha i got chills through my whole body!

  • Taylor Hicks ♥

  • wish David Cook was there

  • Kelly looks fatter

    She also looks better with long, straight hair.

  • @1lAllanl1 Well she has actually lost weight since the finale.

  • CARRIE UNDERWOOD =D COME TO BRAZIL

  • Kelly owns it.

  • I LOVE CARRIE UNDERWOOD!

  • is it just me, or does Fantasia sound like a sick cow on helium?

  • lmfao @ all these people argueing whos the best 'idol'...the truth is none of them write, none of them worked for their fame, and none of them are gonna mean shit in 50 years time.

  • @finalfantac you're an idiot, how can you say that none of them worked for their fame. do you think it's easy being on american idol, huh? so when you say that none of them are gonna mean shit in 50 years, think again ar you'll wake up with my foot up your ass!

  • @free2rhyme2012 Lol mate, have you ever tried playin bars n clubs? Ever tried actually winning over a crowd with your music rather than playing to a crowd who you know love you no matter what the fuck you play? American Idol is fucking piss compared to that. If in 50 years, people are still talking about the major influence of one kelly clarkson/another idol winner, I shall be proved wrong. But I gharantee you, noone's gonna care about her after she's gone.

  • delta goodrem did a better job, because it is her song that she did

  • Kelly is the only one who is actually a worldwide artist

  • kelly clackson undoubtedly has the strongest voice amongst the idol winners. in terms of success, she had released most number of singles and sold more singles than carrie underwood, but carrie sold more albums, and carrie bagged more awards including (if i'm not mistaken) 5 or 6 Grammy, 6 AMAs, 15 Billboard Music Awards, and numerous awards from ACM, CMA, and such) Kelly as far as i know earned about 2 grammy, 4or5 AMA and somewhere between 10-13 billboard music award.

  • @cacay21 i don't think that kelly as the strongest voice. i am a very big fan but still, did you hear carrie sing? she has a much stronger voice than kelly:D;)

  • @free2rhyme2012

    don't get me wrong... am a huge Carrie underwood fan... i mean, i'd even run to the theatre to watch Soul Surfer... have all her CDs available in my country, bought all magazines that has even the smallest photo of her... but without being bias, Kelly Clarkson have a really strong voice... but Carrie most definitely have the cleanest voice there is... that's whay i love her above all... she sing songs effortlessly... Kelly has that strong Pop Rock voice (remember Breakaway)..

  • @free2rhyme2012

    see, youtube has 500-character-limit, see, i was gonna say, if people would compare who's more successful, Kelly or Carrie, am gonna say, Carrie underwood, handsdown... Kelly clarkson sold 20million copies for 4albums, Carrie sold 16million with just 2... that's worldwide... and i think Play On recently reached double Platinum (that means 2million more from US alone)... ye aren't the only one who hear the billiance in Carrie's voice... she's like a cloud of heaven...

  • @cacay21 Kelly has sold almost 20 million in the US alone. She is a world wide star. Carrie isn't So Kelly has sold a hell of a lot more albums the Carrie. And carrie has more then 2 albums.

  • @free2rhyme2012 Carrie has a strong but sorry Kelly has the stronger voice. It's unbelievable.

  • @cacay21 its very hard to compare kelly clarkson and carrie underwood. yes kelly has a stronger voice as far as range, but carrie is country and kelly is pop/rock. its hard to compare there voice cuz they r a different genre. i pefer carrie tho :)

  • @MrSupperLoopa

    i prefer carrie too. am huge huge fan.. i can never compare carrie's and kelly's voice.. i just said Kelly has the strongest voice, coz it's true, her voice is just too powerful, that's why she's the most successful pop artist from idol.. carrie, on the other hand, very clean, very clear, soft and vibrant.. you can hear every word in every song she sings, you don't just hear it, you feel it, that's why i love listening to her most. forget all the idol winners, Carrie is my idol.

  • @cacay21 Forget you, Kelly made the show, Carrie wouldn't be anyone without Kelly, and Kelly is in it for the music! Im a huge fan of Carrie but Kelly is what Music is all about. You wouldn't see Carrie singing background vocals for her friends do you? Kelly has more than once done background vocals live and recorded for her friends who are aspiring artists.
