I've got this but the second set with Dreaming of a White Christmas/Winter Wonderland was phenom needs to be posted here also. Don't have the equipment to do this. I don't know how he manages to not get caught in that mic cord! And cool feedback!
White Christmas/Winter Wonderland followed this. Really good stuff. I really liked the SNL band stylings, a good fit for him. Loved the fake snow falling in the background too. I'll look to see if White Christmas is here in this archive. Thought it would be cool if they made a special edition Christmas card, the kind that opens and plays music with this sound clip. Good idea right?
so uh, um does anyone ever come up to you and say, hey do u like taylor hicks? NO i don't think he was the one to win because no one talks about him anyone
Man - it was SOOO cool to be right there left stage (I can see myself on TV, with my elbows on the stage, but this video is blurry). I was so excited to see Taylor LIVE again, and that was the first glimpse of Loren (hott) and Felix (Hotter)and it was good to see saxman cutie Jeffie again. That night was the first of many, MANY close encounters to come with Hicks and the Boys in the Band...good times, GOOD TIMES!!
actually its not my friend hes got a new album coming out! see this is the probelm with the soceity if he wasnt good he wouldnt be out there rocking. unlinke you now when u think u can do this then call me up!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What do I know, like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I guess music is in the ear of the beholder, one thing is for certain he won't be around for long mark my words, I'm not saying this cause I dislike him, there's just nothing original about him..
It's great to know that you can take a boy out of the south, but you can't take the south out of a boy..... and the tell tell sign is wanting southern food. Thank God, I'm from the south!
Yes, he is in the writing and collaborating phase of a new album later on in 2008. He also has a DVD scheduled for later this year too - it's called Whomp At The Warfield and was filmed last May in SF, Ca. This new album will be mostly all his own stuff. I'm expecting it to kick some serious ass!
He needs radio airplay... with that he will be huge.. and his cd will sell millions. Hes close to a million now (7000000) with close to no airplay at all.
Well why would you watch a Taylor video if you'd rather watch an Elliott one? That would be like reading Lord of the Rings, when you want to read Harry Potter.
I have watched this video over & over, as well as all his other ones. This is the reason Taylor was NEVER in the bottom 2 or 3 on Idol. Seeing him on tour was fantastic!!!
Heads Up! He's been on tour. If you could see his schedule, you would know why we haven't heard much from or about him. He's doing what he loves most. Right on, Taylor
This Man is amazing Live!! Love the soulfulness of this Birmingham , Alabama Native!! Taylor Hicks is the craziest, coolest , singin' and dancin' harmonica playin' fool!! Love Him!!
Love Taylor. How's he doing? I live far far away from the US, so I haven't heard anything about Taylor since he won the Idol. Has his carreer been a success so far?
this is a true thing that happens! its not a chain letter! its kinda scary at first but it really works!! paste this message into 3 comments and press ALT F4 and your crushes name will appear on the screen!!! its soo wierd
If you think he sucks, then why did you watch the video? Also, I hate to be the one to tell you, that not only did he win American Idol and climb the charts with a wonderful album, but he's now selling out at jam-packed arenas on his cross-country tour. So he's rich and I'm proud of him.
You need to learn some grammar; perhaps it is you who needs the "fool costume". Why don't you spend some time re-evaluating that sentence you wrote for the terrible error instead of insulting someone you are not a fan of?
LOL...part of Taylor's appeal in the beginning was that he was different because of his hair. It naturally started turning gray when he was a teenager. Now, he looks sexy as hell with it. I'm one year older than he is, so I can tell you if he changed it, I wouldn't like it at all - it wouldn't look right and people would call him a sellout!
"it wouldn't look right and people would call him a sellout!"
Lol — You're <i>STUPID</i>! I'm so glad I got you nonetheless. Taylor is poised to be the first 'Idol flop! Mark my words — Taylor Hicks will be the first 'Idol <i>WINNER</i> to be featured on Vh-1's "The Surreal Life". Enjoy him now while you can. Have a nice life!
No, "bite me" is much more polite. I see you're a Christian, but your last comment sure doesn't show it! Let's just agree to disagree. You don't like him, but MILLIONS of Americans do; so get over it and go find some clips you like! Have a nice day, Mervin!
A Christian wouldn't use the term, uh, "eat me", that's gross and I would never say it. "Bite me" is much more polite...as long as you've had your shots!
Taylor is the American Idol for a reason...he was the best out of all the candidates! Kat was good but she wasn't the best. Everyone who was any good now has an album out, so if you like her better go buy hers and quit being a Taylor-hater! Luv you Tay! SOUL PATROL!
I'm an Australian musician and don't watch alot of Idol because I believe in making it through year's of perfecting your craft. But I must say that this song grooves and I applaude Taylor for bringing Funk/Soul back into mainstream music. Keep it up TH.
While he won Idol, he actually had been a working musician with his own band, perfecting his craft for a number of years before he tried out for Idol. If I understand correctly, he had a local following around Alabama. Idol just elevated him from local working musician to national prominence. While he doesn't have the most outstanding voice ever seen on an Idol stage, there is something very appealing about him. I hope his (and Elliot Yamin's )star continues to rise.
OMG u c....i live inb-ham alabama yall, nad i KNO taylor hicks!!! HE IS THE NICEST PERSDON U WILL EVR MEET YALL!!! I LUV HIS NEW SONG,DANCE MOVES,AND VOICE!!
who said that I'm a Justin TImberlake fan? I don't even like JT
I was talking about Taylor's Crazy On STage Antics. He looks like He is having a seizure or an epileptic shock of some sort. His voice isn't good it's just ok
all he has is his "Soul Patrol" screaming Gimmick.
That's not Charisma or Talent. that's what I mean when I said I don't get his Appeal. I prefer the real thing like Bruce Springteen over his SHTICk anyday.

McPheever is better looking, but Soul Patrol rocks - you can't fake charisma like this - it supersedes just a good voice. Mandisa had the Pipes, Taylor had the "it" factor for Amer. Idol....
