[chulinskis]

[nooneveryimportant]

[trumpetzzz]

what will happen if Jacob auditioning for Xfactor instead of american idol? im pretty sure he will win !!!!

[MrMagoo2682]

I don't understand why he didnt win american idol, he was the best......

[bluc3cl0ud]

@MrMagoo2682 You're absolutely RIGHT. When I knew the winner, I was just like "WTF, isnt it Jacob Lusk? Is there something wrong?"

[TheSunset30]

i dont understand why he didnt win american idol... mccreery should NOT have won this season! american idol is going down without simon, honestly.

[nguyenthehuy100]

@TheSunset30 the judges didn't vote . America voted who the winner

[suberkin]

@TheSunset30 because you can't win a million dollar competition off of 1 good performance...

[enflans]

does anyone know what the background music after he finishes singing is?

[jasonsinanan]

haley did this way better thumbs up if you agree... :)

[phxphillip]

Motorking....Don't talk about things you don't know....his lifestyle is non of your business......so take your ass somewhere else because you have have no say....take your bible and shove it! By the way Freddie way great and he's enjoying life on the other side.....which I'm sure you'll never get because you are a mean person....Maybe Freddie will come back to haunt you....because you deserve it.

[suberkin]

@phxphillip you got all that out of a little joke line that he posted? holy fuck calm down you drama queen.

[MarwaB1]

C*H*I*L*L*S

[reinhartlovesdarrel]

[ChickenCountryFried]

[TheHp413]

haley was better

[vanroekelgirl]

I get chills every single time i watch this. Every single time. Amazingggg!

[DanubeSerri]

I see some of you guys are very hateful. Don't be mad you can't sing that well. Jacob is DAMN AMAZING.

[LoLz01ful]

Why do I feel like people do their best performaance at Hollywood week and then get worse from there?

[DraneXproductions]

dude i don't get it that was fucking awesome.

[razorcrush12]

boring....

[Drizin21]

@razorcrush12 Are you retarded or something?

[razorcrush12]

@Drizin21 This song didn't move me. I'm entitled to my own opinion as do you. So before you make a stupid comment, think.

[DshankumMusic]

@razorcrush12 LOL what an idiot.

[LadyAnnibelle]

I thought that performance sounded awful and way to "churchy". Btw what's up with the crying at the end? Get a grip. If you don't want your ears to bleed, watch Haley's rendition of this song.

[DshankumMusic]

@LadyAnnibelle Well it is called God Bless The Child?

[jtuso1]

RACIST SHOULD DIE! :@ Fuck off.

[paranoidandroid1997]

Sorry but Haley's god bless the child is far more soulfull, better sung.

[92sav]

what's with all that racist people?? geez....

[hareega]

People who say racism was over in America after Obama was elected should just visit any random youtube channel, this is disgusting, gross, God protect America from its people

[jwardle01]

all you racist haters.. just piss off.. you are all talentless fucks!!! you pale in comparison to this guy..

[jwhess22]

I can see the newspaper headline now. BLACKIE GOES WHITE!

He sucks. Don't vote for this crap.

[TheClosetWolf]

That they had the black gaggle stay instead of casey

[TheClosetWolf]

No, no, no he sucks, Anyones better than him, I was pissed that they had the b

[nancygiordano]

Jacob is a gift from the Lord, and an amazing talent. Not too mention a true Christian who would forgive the morons that posted such ignorant posts below. Gotta feel bad for the haters, cause they are nothing but losers!

[wwerussian26]

Hes had multiple standing ovations now, what more do you need to understand hes gonna win! It dont matter if hes gay straight bi or none of the above, hes amazing

[wiseass125]

[cealchyth]

What a voice! They don't make talent like Jacob's anymore.

[justderrick]

All I need is this guy to sing "Over the Rainbow" and I'm done with him! Amazing cover!

[jackster1555]

lmao i clicked on someones name and jacob lusk came up a million times which brought me here

[shawtymo1]

[18i3o]

he's good actually too good for idol. everyone on idol is great this year but he sticks out

[heyhowareyoudoingthi]

omgg!! this performance gave me goosebumps yo.. he was GREATTTTT

[DannyDaBaga]

He better fucking win.

[ssbc67peachsasdaisy]

jacob lusk one word  ............wow

[ADR145]

i went to middle school with him!! haha true talent right there...he's got my vote

[aikman6699]

PIA HAS GOT THIS IN THE BAG....IF AMERICA IS SMART THEY WILL SEE JAKOB LUSK FOR WHAT HE IS -- AN OVER DRAMATIC FRUITCAKE WHO TRIES TO SNOWJOB HIS SO-SO VOCALS WITH CRYING AND OVER THE TOP SAD BODY MOVEMENTS....BOO HOO HOO LUSK HOPE THE DRAMA QUEEN LOSES LIKE HE SHOULD

[schools1girl]

@aikman6699 -Obviously you have never, EVER been to church. When a person feels the spirit they shout and cry. It's ok, no he won't win because he is too flamboyent, but he has talent. Yes I agree with you that Pia is AWESOME, but homophobes like you won't vote for him. By the way all these kids have talent!

[fatou960]

so freakin good wen u got it u got it and he got it

[wwerussian26]

Even trolls secretly like this mans singing, but they must dislike it to be douches

[Vegasclaw]

i cant beleive ppl dislike this wut is wrong with ppl this gave all his heart to one song.... wtf wut do we have to do to plz everyone... not enought its sad

[Jin3011]

[bnatrl88]

[khenessy1]

[swagger234]

[seaselcat]

He's Amazing! Him and Haley Reinhart are my favourite in the competition.

[XLaNiAcKx]

go jacob your my favorite



[1CRU1]

Amazing performance with so much heart and passion. Your tears made me said, but I know that you will go far with your voice. I believe in you my brother. Rock the house. God bless!

[TheMidnightSpace]

If Jacob lusk wins...

1. I will scream at my TV with joy

2. Do my happy dance

3. I'll throw out all of my modern day pop CDs and replace them with his.

Amazing voice.

[singer2009]

He took it to church!....Represent for Compton!

[bungalowmo]

This is one of those "once in a lifetime" performances. Everything in the universe was lined up just right, and the world was his stage.

We all cried WITH you Jacob. That was unbelievable! The only thing that could have made it better....hearing this song in it's entirety. That would be awesome.

[SpadeOfAces23]

You know. I love that he cried after that performance. I don't mean to stereotype. But he is a black man from COMPTON... That is a tough neighborhood to grow up in. That's one of the worst in California. And him crying shows that he has ALWAYS remained true to who he is, despite the influence of where he lives.

It's obvious that he gives everything he's got, and he wants to get his family out of the ghetto. He's a true artist.

[brownben68]

Awesome Awesome Awesome!!!! BUT he needs to be careful not to over do the "Ga, Ga, Ga, ga, ga, ga, got his own" His voice is pure and beautiful, he doesn't need all the vibrato.

[kestech1]

The mans got it!! WOW!!

[asieduy]

can't go wrong with gospel muzik!!!

[rdfcforever]

god i love music, people who can sing, have a clear talent and a passion to deliver it.....with such a huge amount of talented contestants this year, it really upset me seeing them have to turn away fantastic people in that show, especially when there's talentless w*nkers like Will.I.Am, sitting there wasting the time and space, they so long for....I hope this show continues for many years to come, if only to give those that didn't make it this year a second chance

[AmandaMagg]

he's the one

[wusta34]

god damn! no words!

[wwerussian26]

Best performance this year and for many years

[TheTitusbelle]

Wow! So amazingly beautiful! I can't wait to hear more of him.

[qirlswaqq2010]

dang i kno he gone make it far with a strong voice like this. he betta keep it up

[neville81]

i LOVE this guy! ohwow.. his voice.. MAN!! it is so awEsome! he is THE next AMERICAN IDOL!!

[Evilectus]

This guy sang from the very depths of his soul. That is the hallmark of every great singer. Hope he continues to amaze us with his amazing talent and passion. He'll definitely make it far.

[wwerussian26]

I dont care if hes gay, his vocals are the only thing that matter and damn these vocals be kickin ass!!

[walyfree]

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­W

[juonisback]

[brotim47]

Jacob will be the next American Idol! Absolutely amazing!!!!!!

[Bmwm1hommage]

The crying kills it. Dramatic

[kanoukun]

[MrJeffTurbo]

[bassman8er]

I like this guy... He shouldn't scat, but I like him... What am I saying, I can't scat... Either way, I like him... :)

[DavieeShoTzz]

I made 5 accounts so i can like it 5 times

[FreedomGale]

@DavieeShoTzz Are you serious!!!! LOL, I just watch it over and over. But my boyfriend is worse.

[DavieeShoTzz]

2 people obviously have ears that cant see how bad there voices are.

[MsKajane]

Love Jacob he can sing sing,,,,,had me in tears, goosebumps!!! Jacob I'm your fan!!!!

[ushaiaa]

not the best on idol but one of the best singers in the world....WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT? impossible, feels like an old soul proffessional singer from the 60ies...

[DavieeShoTzz]

@ushaiaa Hmmm out of the 99 % who think so your that 1 % who doesn't. unfortunately your opinion means very little. Maybe you should throw yourself off a bridge since your jealous that you don't have his voice.

[ushaiaa]

@DavieeShoTzz read my comments again my bro! its totally out of subject what you just say to me...READ AGAIN and closely...i said: one of the best singer of the world.

[JaylaZeeJay]

I LOVE HIM!!!

[kalakalachuchu]

[lgdv12]

[aloalon]

[Tocapk]

Dude got crazy chops.

[oCAPEWEAVERo]

I hate the "heh huh hah" sounds he makes. It pisses me off because he's an amazing singer. It just annoys the hell out of me.

[Matclip]

@oCAPEWEAVERo You have to breathe when you sing like that. Completely natural.

[MyClw]

Even the band in the background are just watching in amazement -he was holy spirit fired out !LOVE YOU JACOB INCREDIBLE!

[BlAcKoPsGaMeR123456]
