[silpariss]

[addalilirishtourgame]

[D3DF0X]

Apparently HQ is now 240p. Awesome singer btw.

[ssmith5342]

Oh God, that ending was creeeeeeeeeeeepy. If I were JLo I would have been like, what the fuck is this weird ass doing?

[staliequi]

Scotty isn't hard why'd he win?

[kfogarty81]

@staliequi What?

[xxKarolinaZ]

Everytime I watch American Idol And I want someone to win.. THEY NEVER DO :( EG - CASEY ABRAMS OR ADAM LAMBERT. WTFFF

[Giselle1289]

considering Adam Levine's voice is so hard to match, this guy wasn't too bad.

[karl190411]

Met him on their tour..he was one of the nicest of all the idols...very down to earth and is just amazing at piano might i add! =P...he played it in our hotel

[darthGavin]

He is the reason Jlo broke up with Mark Anthony. lol

[Luv2Rock333]

is there anyone out there cause its getting harder...and harder **kisses jennifer*** to breathe...LOL!!! i love casey!! (the top 2 shoulda been him and james!)

[xxSimpleCxx]

i voted for him over 100 times.... arrrggg :/

[martysmusic69]

i love it when people don't punctuate their sentences.

[brivanas]

@martysmusic69 I love it when people don't capitalize them.

[martysmusic69]

@brivanas Touche.

[RKOHBK457]

HQ my ass 240p bitch

[RandomCasey123]

[nick31898]

i'm sad that this season is over cause it was the best season ever i loved all of them i wish it would never end that season i mean

[Acloocca]

I honestly don't understand how this has so many dislikes. Who are these people... 3rd grade girls?

[tylerandconor]

he got out for no good reason he rocked!!!! i wasn't able to vote but i would've

[nick31898]

For some reason the replay button is broke now after i hit so many times

[xpf15]

so much freaking talent.

[VExPATDxParamore]

It's weird, my all time favorite was James, but when Casey left I cried, and when James left I didn'y cry. I guess I was a true Casey fan.

[6yshtein]

i hate maroon 5 but he made this song amazing....

[lllary612]

@6yshtein How can you hate maroon 5?

[6yshtein]

@lllary612 i can...

[1teacherspit]

This was so awesome!!!

[nick31898]

202 people are from a different country and thought that the dislike button ment that it was awesome!!!

[nocokiss]

I love Casey! <3

[MarciCow]

The final should have been James vs. Casey.

[samara147able]

@MarciCow Absolutely!

[reallyletsdoit]

so much better then the original. Casey freaking rocks

[TheyCantBeKilled]

I stoped watching american idol after he left..... It just wasn't the same....



[bloodybat66]

I will slaughter everyone who didn't vote for CASEY!!! -gose on medivil rampage-

[Dramaqueen10158]

I HATE THESE ONE DAY THINGS!!!!!!!!!!!

[georgec888]

Casey can sing anything! I will definitely buy his CD.

[XAmzzyX]

Love his voice MMMmmmmm Sexaay

[neKai11]

AND HE SEALED IT WITH A KISS!! NICE! HE SHOULDA WON OR AT LEAST BE ON TOP 2!! :(

[BOOM7113]

I really hope he gets sponsered because I would buy every song!!!

[amieewllms]

i love this performance!!!

[1426808]

hermes is here and he can sing

[666MartyB666]

I don't understand how he was voted off after THIS performance????

[TheAnita99]

@666MartyB666 Nonono-- He wasn´t voted off after this performance. He was super safe after this one. This was amazing. he got voted off the week after when the theme was totally pointless for him. So unfair.

This dude is super talented and this style suits him. Hopefully Universal signs him quick. I bet he could be sell tons of records.

[666MartyB666]

@TheAnita99 Understood. but i'm saying that he really proved himself as a performer in this. Like. before. he sang Ray Charles and stuff. And from what i've heard people were kind antsy to see if he could have a modern vibe, as a rounded singer. So obviously this proved that he did. I could've understood if he had been voted off if the judges wouldn't haved used the save. but after this there's really no doubt about his talent.

[JamesJonathon013]

that's fuckin' pimp

[nick31898]

dude even though he is off now he will be sponsered by someone

[FeelingElecric]

Should of won, sooo hot, loved him sence the beginging<3.

[ttumbledore]

ALSJF;LAKSD I LOVE HIM ...

[TheHawii1001]

Maybe he will come back next year. O.o That would be the best day of my life.

[drummer4131]

@TheHawii1001 he wont cuz hell already be famous

[BucketofThrowup]

Ha, the week i didnt vote, is the week casey lost. ( i always vote for him) my bad america =(

[JonMC2008]

While searching casey on facebook to see how he was doing i saw his relationship, HALEY! Vote haley guys! thats what casey wants!

[TheyCantBeKilled]

I LOVED CASY!!! I STILL LOVE HIM!!!

[JonMC2008]

I just watched all of his songs, can't stop listening to them! I Cried... Why did he get voted off? Well I can't wait till the finale when hes on! I heard he singing with Jack Black! CASEY WE ALL LOVE YOU!

[freakness94]

Fellow Americans, WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!?!?!?!?! I hope you are proud to say that you dont know what real talent is. Thanks for voting off the best contestant that Idol EVER had.

[lllary612]

That show is rigged man. There is no way Casey should have lost to Jacob. I think Casey should have been top 3. I don't think he should have won it though. He's fricken amazing don't get me wrong, but I just think James and Haley are a bit better. He easily deserved 3rd though. FOR GOD'S SAKE AMERICA START VOTING PROPERLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[BlackWithEvil2]

2:20 OMG!

[theapplexx]

I think this just amazing. Casey did do good job, can't belive that he couldn't have enogh votes, but what can i do? I'm not american or even adult so.. But still i LOVE THIS SONG COVER

[MArijawizard]

Subscribe to Casey's youtube site *pierceabrams*!! If we all subscribe maybe that will light the fire under his ass...I wants ALBUMS CASEY!!!  <3

SUBSCRIBE TO *PIERCEABRAMS* IT'S CASEY's YOUTUBE SITE

support Casey by subscribing *pierceabrams*

[xKISSASSx]

scotty sucks ass

[MrTechthonic]

HE KILLED THE SONG!!!!

[QuaBurBuR]

stupid america wtf were u thinking..... casey and pia should have stayed not paul and jacob and everyone else...

[sheao1]

nahh, casey and jacob. jacob should have stuck with a jazz song. and if jacob would have not listened to the producer and stuck with soul songs he would have still been here. but casey is already going to perform at the finale so, its all good

[TheHawii1001]

There is no American Idol without Casey, I can't even watch it anymore. If the judges are in control they could have stood up and said no my co-judges and I make the rules what we say goes and he is staying; Same as for Pia.... The judges just sat there and dozed off, I WOULD HAVE F******** DONE SOMETHING!! GRR!!!!>>>

[Tonyn218]

his is better than the origanl

[kennywaynesheperd]

Everybody come and witness HOW THE SINGER LOOKS LIKE. Take a look at his moves, he IS angry.. See how he patters fans with his hand? His is absolutly NATURAL, he feels how music moves.

[TheAnita99]

America why did you voted him off! He was so amazing! Can´t believe he is not on the show anymore. I won´t watch now.

[morganb147]

@TheAnita99 I had a temper tantrum... I threw a plate after he left. I said I wasn'y going to watch this show anymore except for Haley and the finale. He should've won!!!!!! WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA?!!!!!!!!

[2012SuperG]

I voted untill time was up! I love you Casey (not in the creepy way)

[doberweiller]

Casey you are amazing, I think it should have been you and Jacob to the end...I was shocked when you were voted off...I know you will go far and I will be looking for your CDs you are so rare and diversified loved the kiss to Jennifer that was priceless....

[doberweiller]

Casey you are amazing, I think it should have been you and Jacob to the end...I was shocked when you were voted off...I know you will go far and I will be looking for your CDs you are so rare and diversified loved the kiss to Jennifer that was priceless....

[andrearuizdepotel]

I´m not surprised Casey didn´t win. He´s too much for American Idol. Too bad!! Casey rocks but America prefers Jacob. buhhh

[CoolMaster224]

FUCK YOU JACOB LUSK

WE GONNA MISS YA CASEY

[TheDutchRockinRobin]

I LOVE YOU CASEY!

[christiTN]

Most overrated American Idol contestant EVER. This is the most mediocre performance. Where is any originality or creativity? This is totally karaoke. Wish Simon was still on the show so we could have the opinion of someone who knows what he is talking about. Steven is too nice to be a judge. He would have said "that was a beautiful thing" to William Hung. Casey did an incredible version of Georgia on my mind but it was all downhill from there. He needs to stick with the instruments and STFU.

[paydn202]

their ratings are going to drop so hard next week.

[deallybobber]

I seriously almost cried when I saw that Casey was leaving the show. Of course, it's just another shocker of the season, as Pia was aswell. Well, i'm sure they will both make it on their own out there and I expect to see more of Casey really soon. He is far too talented to go unoticed. The only suckish part is, American Idol is going to be boring now. :/

[erica200911]

@deallybobber I Agree, And I Actually CRIED When They Said Jacob Was Safe Because I Knew it Was Either Gonna Be Scotty Or Casey And I DIDN'T Want Casey to Leave!!! Or Scotty.

[cheybugg222]

Wish he didn't get voted off

[cpulizzi]

That guitar player rocked! Casey nice job too!

[BigAJ57]

American idol is bullshit and Casey shouldn't have gone home but it is what it is. Casey, Pia and Hailey are the best on the show.Too bad two of them aren't there anymore.

[TheHawii1001]

I will never watch american idol EVER AGAIN!!!! PPL WITH NOW BRAINS WULDNT VOTE FOR HIM OF DEAF PPL!!!! And i wuld have said Casey and James top two!!! GRRR AMERICAN IDOL SUCKS NO AMERICAN IDOL WITHOUT CASEY IF CASEY READS THIS I LOVE U CASEY!!!!

[94samone]

i'm not watching american idol anymore r u crazy he left i should of voted but i had to much to do and couldn't vote

[JonMC2008]

@94samone You never have to much to do when it comes to how amazing this artist is! "O well im to busy i'm sure he'll still be fine." Yes i'm not going against you but if you said that, think on how many other useful voters said that. If i could, i would vote. ( I live in canada ) but if you really think about that i bet you atleast 15% of his voters said they were to busy and that is the reason america, why Casey Abrams got voted off.

[94samone]

@JonMC2008 you have a point I'm not mad at you for expressing your opinion but my excuse was really family related i needed to do. I voted for him every week except that week he was voted off because i really needed to get something done that's why i didn't vote people have a lot of stuff to do lately and i cant always watch tv . sorry you couldn't vote over their in Canada. plus he'll become famous anyway because I'm buying is album

[kujawa44]

you rock

[sidhefae]

Dag this guy has a crazy voice that is such a brilliant sound to my ears....lol So cool and soooo different....love this guy....yo yo yo...lol Casey, was voted off tonight....what a waste of time, the spice and color to American Idol just left the stage.

[Kayhlie10]

I LOVE CASEY!!

[Invincible20]

people may not understand him and his growls but look back at every performance guys look at all of them is pitch even with the growls is superb and thats very hard to do .

[MsJamielynnn]

Casey James and Scotty my 3 top fav's!! Lauren holds back way too much!!! Hailey awsome voice but very boring performance's! Jacob good church voice but not a voice i would buy on a cd to listen in my car. And why in the world did pia get voted off her voice is amazing shes the next Celene Dion!!!

[16AJordan]

Until now, I still can't believe Haley is always on the bottom 3. Why is it always like that? She's a great singer, and even if other people say that this is a popularity show, Why do people can't see the talent inside Haley, DAMN. Still, Go HALEYandCASEY. :3

[TheAnita99]

Exactly Casey and James. Haley is not all that. She is just not my cup of tea.

Casey and James top 2 or Casey and Lauren.

[PsgRocker]

1) Casey should win 2) Paul should have been on longer then Stefano and Jacob 3) This video isn't HQ false advertising.

[chancesnan]

I will buy his cd the day it comes out...talented young men are hard to find and nobody can top Casey

[chad026fun665]

Casey in the Finale....... Please VOTE VOTE like CRAZY America on Wednesday!!! Mobilize your friends and love ones to vote! We need the most talented guy in Ai ever to WIN!!! :)

[silver449]

It takes a real artist & master to do what Casey did! To incoporate the kiss into his fantastic performance was done viruously! The movements on the stage was appropriate for the high pace, Pope-Rock song! You are watching amazing & talented musician's fantastic performance... Casey is HUGE! He is more than AI, I just don't believe he weill survive the teenagers voting games & some viewers negativity who don't get his passion & unique abilities...

People should really listen more to his songs

[stretchx17x]

I get tired of people saying that it hurts them when they come off as cocky. Why? Is that a bad thing? The fact that he's confident in his song choices, with good reason, and that he's happy up on stage is great. He's talented and weather or not he is "cocky" has nothing to do with it.

[TheRatedRAssassin]

Casey needs to stick with this type of music forget the jazz stuff thts boring stuck with this

[palmaroloo]

i hate people who are voting like animals for Lauren and Scotty, they are sooooooo boring, country country country every single week, I go to sleep when they perform and they haven't been in the bottom 3 once. I'm not american but I don't understand, Don't you like art americans? Don't you like incredible singer-performers like Haley and Casey? I don't know what the hell is wrong with the voters. Please explain me!

[samgamgeeisbrilliant]

@palmaroloo I'm not American, so don't blame me LOL. I don't like country music, but it's still an art form like all music. Casey is epic win, obviously, but I wasn't so crazy about Haley for a while, but I think she's improving. I think that Lauren is a much more energetic performer than the other girls. Also, Scotty is a genius when it comes to arranging songs - and only 17! But yes, I disagree with a lot of the calls. Stefano should have been gone LONG before Scotty or Lauren LOL.

[palmaroloo]

@samgamgeeisbrilliant yes I know country music is an art form, but I still think it's boring when they sing, and about Haley, I think she has been great since the beggining, what the judges have said I disagree a little, I know everybody won't agree with me but Scotty and Lauren have had bad weeks and they are never in the b3

[didi0803msm]

@palmaroloo True about Scotty's and Lauren's last 2 weeks. Scotty's gonna have to find a way to ''wow'' us. He's getting predictable and that's not a good thing on this show! If the votes were based only on the week before the results I think Stefano would have been safe this week and Scotty or Lauren out!

[chad026fun665]

@didi0803msm Well said! :)

[TheAnita99]

Casey to the top! Amazing!

[qtippjohnson1]

casey and james or casey and haley?

[jrowland3232]

@qtippjohnson1

casey and james 

[SKHYBLUE]

vote for casey he is winner!!!



[joe69c]

SING IT CASEY!!! ANYTHING YOU WANT



[liz95gh]

casey and james ! top 2!

[MinkyBinks]

this is anything but high quality

[ROSSehOH]

Casey, Lauren, James top three ;D but Casey better win!!

[oxFutureMrsEfronxo]

VOTE CASEY. THUMBS UP SO EVERYONE KNOWS WHO SHOULD WIN THIS YEAR! YEAH I MEAN JAMES AND HALEY ARE GREAT AND SHOULD BE IN THE FINAL 3 WITH CASEY. BUT SCOTTY, LAUREN, AND JACOB...... NO. STEFANO SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE WAY BEFORE PIA AND NAIMA. BUT FINAL 2 SHOULD BE HALEY, AND CASEY. VOTE CASEY FOR THE WIN. THUMBS UP!!!!!!!

[fibulirus9191]

@oxFutureMrsEfronxo to late

[TheAnabelis]

Casey Abrams is just SEXY ! <3 :* He should win American Idol or if he doesnt win, Haley should ! ;D

[iiiamSavage]

casey & scotty for the win.

haley sucks.

when haley and jacob leave, then it'll be a real competition.

[mrdirtrag87]

@iiiamSavage what about james? hes good



[littlelady2cu1]

casey is just amazing,he makes you like songs that you would never have liked if he had not snag them,there is no1 better

[music223165]

Can I marry him?

[NerfNinja20]

amazing

[theblackmoonofghost]

@xxFLIPPIFERxx agree lol!!!!

[exgf22]

My favorite part. when she kissed JLO.. lol

[asaktap98]

@exgf22 she probably showered after that

[exgf22]

Casey and Haley! Yes!

[sillyrnu007]

-.- I kept clicking the screen to pause it and I didn't understand why I kept going to a "Disney Sucks" video... Now I get it...

[MrsHoughChmerkovskiy]

@sillyrnu007 i feel stupid but can u explain why that kept coming up?

[ipkedurmoma1]

@patriciaooi29 lol go listen to Adele live please. Haley sang her song better live than Adele can.. The people now adays that "are better" are fake with all the technology to enhance thier voice.

LOL Was james not screaming by the end of the Muse song? Or did my butt slide on the remote and turn the volume up and down?

[seinesalz]

Man! I wish I was JeLo!

~Laura

[RabidOyster1]

Simple math, 55 Mil votes last week. 70 k posted responses here. 190 dislikes. small % from non-voting countries. Lets say that leaves 40k here that like Casey and are going to be complaining when Casey gets voted off. Lets say everyone here votes 50 times, that's a total of 2 mil votes. 53 mil votes divided among 6 left is 8.8 mil per other contestant. Yes there's lots of ppl that don't post here, but my point is, we fans must Vote ALOT or we have no right to complain if he gets the boot

[ashleylackman]

I <3 Casey Abrams!

[ipkedurmoma1]

@amjan62 You kidding? Haley not stronger than james??? The only reason Haley is in bottom 3 every week is because of all the lil girls wanting the guys to win. Metal is just annoying!!! I dont know why people say Casey and James are their favorites... They are total opposites..

Anyway James just screams his way through idol, its just stupid that people like screaming so much. Sorry i got enough screaming at by my mother when i was a child, dont need it on my ipod, or on tv.

[gunnerblade]

He usually nails them very well, but I didn't like the higher notes on this song.Let's hope he stays.

[maxelca]

This was great! Casey & James should battle it out for the win. This was the first performance by Casey that made me think he would win. James is my fav, but Casey is soooo talented. Both are deserving.

[KginAndCampy]

I like how he sang his guitar solo :D

[MArijawizard]

SCOTTY IS GONNA WIN, AND IT'S RETARDED.

THEY NEED TO BAN 15YR OLDS AND YOUNGER FROM VOTING.

give casey you're support, go trash SCOTTYS VIDEOS

THUMBS UP SO EVERYONE READS THIS

[amjan62]

Obviously Casey and James. Haley is nowhere close to James, and I think James'll win, but Casey took it this week. He killed this song

[mitsukipuki]

Some bitches have all the fuckin luck.

[YoureAShrub]

I want to kiss Jlo



[millow22]

i want this song on my ipod :D

[leocdc7]

HQ!!... LOL

[skittlesxoxo3]

CASEY AND LAUREN!

[jblplaser]

I would like Casey and Haley to be in the Top 2 >.< Who knows if that will happen thoughh

[Astrat23]

awesome casey winning it

[kooler2004]

Casey will show James how to win in the final 2!!!!

[danjd95]

casey and james top 2

[kooler2004]

@danjd95 all THE WAY

[first2middle]

Ha their saying Casey is lucky;Jennifer Lopez is the LUCKY ONE!!

[bananafruitsmoothie]

@first2middle Oh totally! His lips were probably all furry LOL.

[BostonSports1011]

It really doesn't matter who wins, all of these singers are getting a music contract regardless.

[paintingsbykusaka]

Casey brought laughter back into my life..........................­..I will always paint free for you Casey. I hope you enjoy the painting I sent to you. Love Michiru Kusaka

[paintingsbykusaka]

Casey Rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[oxFutureMrsEfronxo]

EVERYONE VOTE FOR HIM. JUST DO IT. IT IS SO EASY AND TAKES LITERALLY 5 SECONDS AND YOU HELP HIM GET CLOSER AND CLOSER TO BECOMING THE WINNER.

[paintingsbykusaka]

Can someone please up load to you tube the part when Casey holds up the painting done by Michiru Kusaka.............Thanks

[GrymWraith]

@paintingsbykusaka TheHumanSlinky posted it on his channel One of Seven Voted Off

[inskeletonsclothing]

Casy owned that stage, the song AND Jennifers beautiful cheeks!!! Casey all the way to the top!

[mker96]

[gerberberick908]

Casey, Scotty and james!!

[gracepasceri]

the 186 dislikes are people who are NOT tone deaf

[finney1996]

the 186 dislikes are scotty mcquirey fans

[TheZeppelin1]

Haha why does he slap the peoples hands that try to touch him?

[Chazzinger]

[themarcshark]

scotty WILL NOT win XD okay? fuck that shit lol. neither will james. Casey for life! bitches
