  • not enough energy. MJ gave all out emotion on this

  • @airjaff it seems like all the studio recordings seem a little "weak." it makes me wonder if the producers made them tone it down during the recording session. the live performances are much better.

  • A quarter way through the song, I'm convinced diana is dirty. She rocked this. MJ stands on his own, but considering Idol had all contestants sing one of his songs..not too shabby.

  • Chills down my spine...

  • hey, I did like this but...it'd be even more awesome if she sang refrain without those, hmm, choruses, back vocals, whatever it is.

    coool, by the way!

  • she picked a song that MJ held to PERFECTION. I wasnt surprised when she got kicked off. :S

  • @PrincessSugar412 except she wasn't voted off that week. it was for jolene.

  • Why was Alexis voted off too early? Her voice is awesome and I love this song by MJ!

  • So, although my fave is Adam Lambert I have to say that this is pretty good.

  • 1. Allison 2. Adam 3. Kris 4. Matt 5. Danny 6. Lil 7. Alexis 8. Megan 9. Jasmine 10. Scott 11. Michael 12. Anoop 13. Jorge
  • Alexis is awesome (very nice voice), BUT the chorus..is mess :O !!!!

  • She was robbed...she should have at least made the top 10.

  • i like it (y)

    MJ hero forever in my heart(l)

  • so cool... i like it

  • Wow, her studio version of this is really good. I can't believe that she doesn't have a record deal yet. Man, I regret not watching the past seasons of American Idol.

  • All of the songs of MJ are in my favorites :P

  • she got that attitude when she sings...

    i fall in love with that...in fact,she's the first in top 12..

    unfortunately, she was voted off too early..

  • @silverpotatoes agreed!

  • Just Amazing. Last year was so much better than this year. My fav last year: Adam Lambert; Allison Iraheta; Alexis Grace and Matt Giraud... They should be the final 4...

  • I love herrr :*

  • Great!

  • dis is so good

  • its good

  • Her voice is amazing!!!!

  • She left way too early =(

  • i loved when she sung this!!!!

    But MJ does it better!!

    I love HER wish she would come out with

    something, it would be amazin!!

  • yeah this one is kinda nice,

    mike made the song so but she sings nothing false

    she brought it beautiful (sorry if i wrote something wrong xDD)

    x

  • i luuve her voice

  • i actually like this

  • mhh okay i guess

    she sang some things wrong

    but i think it is good but not long as good as michael

    xx

  • yes.. I agree.... I think mike's version is kinda better.... I like this one though.

  • @GNRN1FN of course mike's is better because noone can sing any of his songs like him, they are classics, but the fact that Dirty Diana is one of his hardest songs to sing, i have yet to find ONE person who can pull it off and make it sound good, the fact Alexis accomplished that is amazing, of course the original will always be better, but the fact she pulled of one of his hardest songs is amazing. she's really good.

  • one of the best covers of this song!

  • no need to compare to MJ , but Alexis is brilliant in this cover

  • fly amazing and alexis was better than megan and lowkey lil

  • hey, this is a really awesome cover!!

  • Gooooooood.

  • MJ would have been proud I believe. If he saw this. Also he was taken from us too soon. Miss you Michael .

  • shes awsome

  • I actually like it. And guys we get it. No one's like Michael and it sooo goes without saying by now. But she did a good job ^_^

  • great vocals

  • i really like it i wanna buy it offa itunes!!:)

  • This one is good.. i like it...!!

    but Michael Jackson sings this song is betterrrrrrrrr than her!!!!!

  • This is sooo prissy..........

  • The fans decide. Not Simon, Paula, Randy, or Cara.

  • Niceeee!

  • def my fave performance out of the MJ week!

  • Nice:)...sounds amazing

  • this is really good! love the mj song, and love this one!

  • I like the way she sings this song.

  • I think she's OK!!!

    As good as a female can do of a Michael Jackson song!!!

    But overall, It was OK!!!

  • wow i forgot about alexis but this is awesome!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • love this!

  • love her voice!!

  • she cant hold a candle to michael

  • haha.. are you joking? you can't seriously be giving out shit cuz she's not as good as MJ. You really think she thinks she's as good him??

  • geesh calm yourself, everyone knows that no one is a good as michael was, i was just saying what everyone was thinking

  • of course.

  • she shpuldnt have gtte out that early. She was real goood! I'd like to see someone from the fans sing this song exactly like Alixis!

  • really good! not as good as the original, of course! she should have stayed WAY longer!

  • Nobody can sing this son like Michael....

  • nobody can sing anything like michael.... let's be honest the guy was one of a kind and the last of his breed... a true performaer in every sense of the word... an absolute LEGEND, there will never be another Michael Jackson, R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON FOREVER MISSED, NEVER FORGOTTEN

    p.s.... not a bad cover tough.... but MJ 4LIFE

  • *groan* Lexi, you were mah fave. DAMN YOU DANNY FOR BEING IN THE TOP 4!

  • ever sinced i heared dirty diana song...omg i really like it,,,i practice the song and memorize the lyrics for 1 week and now i keep on playing this everday on my ipod...its like a drug to me,,,theres something about this song that really keeps me alive and for the first the time i saw the video with michael singing on it, it was so freakin hot and sexy,,,gosh love it,,............,rip michael

  • She was great at this. Image her and micheal singing this together

  • sucks that she left...she would've gone far!

  • um, actually, they had to do it for the show. They didn't have a choice. Stop trying to diss them.. its rude. If you don't want to hear other people singing his song, its simple, don't click on the link...

  • It's American Idol! They were giving a tribute to Michael Jackson and they made all of the contestants sing Michael Jackson songs.

  • SHE KILLED IT

  • I prefer MJ.

    but omg i gotta say I LOVEEEE this songgg. its sooo goood

  • She was so robbed.

  • Theres something about this song that makes me want to jump up sing and dance lol.

    I LOVE the beat also.

  • POR DIOOOOOOOS!!!!!!!! NO EMPECEMOS A PROFANAR!!!!!!!!

    esta cancion no puede ser cantada por nadie ke no sea Michael Jackson!!!!

    Deberia ser un crimer

  • i think this is my favorite out of all of the michael jackson songs performed by these contestants, she did really well.

  • y did she leave so early them peoplez was trippin

  • i love this song

  • her voice suites this song!!!

  • I always wonder how first timers react to this... :)

  • This is genius. Her voice sounds amazing!

  • I prefer MJ :p

  • I love his song, her version of it, and her voice! The stupid judges. she left WAY to EARLY. She was my 3rd faviorte. 1rst-Kris Allen 2nd-Allison Iraheta 3rd-Alexis Grace 4th-Adam Lambert 5th-Danny Gokey(=<3 TOP 5!

  • i personally think that this version is better than mj

  • I really liked her I was surprised when she left so early

  • mj is better.love this song!need his cd.

  • ok my opinion this should have been the order

    1. Adam, 2. Danny, 3. Allison, 4 Kris, 5 Alexis

    fuck matt Alexis you were awesome

  • fuck matt?? wtf are u talking about? have you ever heard the original version of dirty diana? alexis totally messed it up.

  • thnk u

  • matt was horrible, and yes i love the original and she did a great job with this. It's just different.

  • I would've went

    !. Allison, 2. Adam, 3. Alexis, 4. Kris .... and thats all I care for =]

  • how can a cover of MICHAEL JACKSON be better than the orignial

  • this isnt better

  • i know that what im saying its if someone covers Michael Jackson its no way better than his version

    no one can be better than Michael

  • love, love, love this version!  It was shocking to me when she was voted out, she was my fav.......

  • i  luv this version

  • this is incredible

  • she should have gone farther but not farther then danny allison adam them 4 shoulve been top 4

  • I thought alexis should have ben 5th, allison 2nd, Kris 3rd, Adam 1st, and of course Danny is 13th.

  • I say Adam 1st , Alexis 2nd , Allison 3rd , Danny Gokey , Lil Rounds , Kris ,ect.

  • Please dont compare anything to Michael he is incomparable. No one can ever be A Michael Jackson No comparison will ever be close to the real thing all things considered this version is good but it's not Michael!

  • Alexis if you by the smallest chance are reading this.. your elimination was a fluke. You are really talented, you will do great things!

  • I would've preferred to see Alexis over Mike, Megan, Scott, Lil, Matt, and Gokey.

    The judges should've used the save. The only reason they didn't was cuz it was too early to use up their little "season surprise"

  • she did WAAAAY better than the judges said she did. she did amazing.

  • i love MJ's version but this version is way better. she did a really good!!

  • love it fav american idol u rock

  • i love this version! i thought she was amazing!

  • i liike thiis versiion of the song :)

  • she totally deserved to go wayy much farther than megan joy and lil- she really didn't desever t be in the top whatever number she was in (i forgot) she really deserved to be in the top 4 or even the top 2 shes an amazing voice and didnt deserve to be kicked out

  • I loved this version of Dirty Diana.

  • FAV PERFORMANCE THAT DAY

  • she sounds very good i truly liked all the contestants

  • OMFG...shes fuckin amazing i like her more than any of the other girls...srsly??!!!Megan,Lil got farther and she didnt what happened america???she is wayyy better than megan and lil...she desrved the place of either one of them

  • i agree. lil was good at first but she kept picking the wrong songs.. and i would rather see alexis on the tour than megan because ive never liked megans voice.

  • she had a soulful voice..but was too short.

  • she should have gone way farther!!!!

  • im from memphis and ive met her a few times and i have told her that when i heard her sing this song it sent chills up my spine. she sang it so well!!!

  • agree with u except for that on anoop...anoop is really good ....but she deserves the tour

  • i agree. megan was my least favorite from the top 13. i liked anoop though, he has potential.

  • she deserved Lils place

  • she shouldve at least gone farther..lil shouldve gone home that week..shes terrible with that stank attitude..

  • I love this version more.

    Her voice is very powerful.

    I think this song brings more power to it.

    She has a good style.

    She has a beautiful voice.

    It has it's "flavor" i guess I could say.

  • its just so sad, still upsets me.

    she deserves to be in the tour..

    tsk, tsk,

    i'm crazy about her version in this song..

  • i like this song when SHE sings it:)

  • i agree 100% that the judges should've saved her but you can't reeally blame them 'cause she went out too early and they really don't know if someone more worthy is gonna need it (but as we know no 1 "as worthy" got the boot)

  • she should have been at least top 5

    seriously if they made the top 12 into 13,they should make that top 10 tour into 11, damn producers ....Go Alexis!!

  • I loveeee Alexis!!

  • Kris does have a good VOICE, but not a very good singer. Adam has good range and decent singing, but his voice is redundantly screechie, castrati-like, flat toned.

  • are you serious she's wayyyy better than kris!

  • <3 Alexis. Shoulda made it on the tour.

  • Wow...I love this and Alexis!! :)

  • i cant like it for one reason this is by far my favorite mj song sorry alexis

  • i helly voted for her. too bad it didn't help. she's exquisite! this was my favorite performance of hers. so electric and stunning! oh I hope somebody will be smart and sign her.

  • she shud have gone farther than at least megan.

  • I LOVE ALEXIS. She shlould have been with the top four or five, and then the voters would have decided who won. My favs are, from best to least, but top five non the less:ALLISON, MATT, MEGAN, ALEXIS, DANNY. I am happy for Kris winning, since thats how it turned out.

  • oh my god i have the same favorites as you!

  • WOW...she killed this. I love this song.

  • she definitely should have gone further in the competition.

  • great version

  • she was amazin!!!

    from mix!!!

  • I love her! I think Anoop should have been kicked off that week.

  • um hell no!!!Anoop was amazing that week...vocally she shudve been in Lils place

  • I met her at my audition last season!

    This recording blew my mind!! 2:54 .... I get chills EVERY SINGLE TIME.

  • even if adam wins, his albums wouldnt sound good coz hes too theatrical. good on the show bad on the record i only loved tracks of my tears, the rest had too much shriekeration

  • true, i agree. i noticed that too. tracks of my tears is the only one not bad.

  • for me Mad world was the only one performance i liked of Adams

  • well he didnt! Okay Alexis isn't as good a singer as Adam or Kris, but what makes her less worthy of winning it?

  • I love Alexis, she should have been in the top 3 at least

  • this was a good performance

  • I love here! I can't beleive she's gone!

  • Alexis has been my favorite for the longest time. From some unknown 'bad luck' divine intervention, she got booted out. To compare her final performance to Matt's would be like comparing a race horse to a donkey; it's incomparable!! However, she was booted off TOO early. She doesn't even get to join the AI Tour, for goodness' sake! Also 'cause she continually gave awesome performances which lifted the judges' expectations. She just makes one bad move, goodbye. Life is truly unfair -.-

  • We were robbed of her greatness. she could have been the front runner in the competition. the best thing i could do is imagine her singing some aretha during the motown week & some christina on popular itunes download week. LOL! I am deluded and i am obsessed with alexis!

  • why would they use the save on matt but not her!?!?!!

  • I don't know! Ridic.

  • idk matt sucks

    TOP FINALIST will be :

    ALLISON vs Adam

  • You are completely right!!!

    Everyone says gokey will be in the finlas but he will finish 3 and then allison will win cause AI doesnt want someone like adam to win because they cant control him

  • isnt that what singing is all about?? when u sing, u should be dramatic and uncontrollable... or its just boring

  • i love this song she deffinately did a great job and she probably made michael jackson who i love so much and is my idol very happy if he was watching

  • ALEXIS ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!

  • the save was wasted in her case for sure. they better use it to save matt I don't know why people don't vote for him.

  • she definitely went too early!. friggin megan and scott suck compared to her , i even prefer her over Lil , her and allison would have been a good match betweent he woman.

  • Ya know the judges save is kinda crappy. Sure, itz cool but they havent saved some people who really shouldve been saved. Like her. I think they should have like three saves...not just one. :(

  • i was so surprised that the judges did'nt save her, she's awesome
