true HD Haley Reinhart "Rhiannon" Top 3 American Idol 2011 (May 18)

[dmp1549]

If it wasn't for the crazy back up singer this would have been a perfect performance, >.<

[xsuperz]

@dmp1549 what crazy back up singer? show me where!!

[Strwberfields]

A bit of trivia.....Who was Jimmy Iovine (of AI) in a relationship with from 1980 to 1983?

Answer: The ever so beautiful and talented Stevie Nicks.

[BreakPics]

@Strwberfields wow.. awesome! thanks for the trivia!

[BradytheCat]

I really love the sound of the crowd getting excited right around 0:51 when the wind machine kicks in. Haley you look and sound so perfect in this video... I LOVE it so much, one of the best Idol performances ever, "hands down".

[AlbertFuentes15]

In my opinion, one of the best Idol performances EVER since Season 1. Everything about this performance is perfect.

[ando1135]

on the next season, imma judge the performers on a scale of 1 to "as good as haley reinhart"

[jsrj98]

@ando1135 Ah, but NO one will ever be 'as good as Haley Reinhart". Sorry, just NEVER happening!!!!!

[MrAltairee]

Subscribed cause of the epic video quality

[budmangt2]

Pretty brave of her to cover the goddess stevie classic.....

here is one classic powerful live Rhiannon by the queen of rock...

Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon Live The Midnight Special - 11 June 1976 widescreen

[rhiannonloveshorses]

my name is rhiannon lol this my song

[buzzenator]

I miss the fact that we didn't get a studio version of this...she would have just nailed a longer version, but as always she was simply beautiful on stage...voice and looks.

[AfflictedSerpent]

Haley withdrawal is hard :(

[seker7]

OK thats s'posed to be - PierceAbrams -

[233roz]

Just beautiful.

[StarfireandSakura]

This is pretty much one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[seker7]

I have always loved Stevie Nicks so I was thrilled by Lovine's pick (the judges.. not so much)

If Interested in a Haley Video that is sooo different than this go to PiercedAbrams channel (akaCasey Abrams)

Is Haley at Irvin Mayfield's Jazz Club in New Orleans

-- simply put is 11 minutes you will never EVER forget!!!!

[johnkess2174]

If you're interested in the roots of this song - Buckingham and Nicks (1974 pre Fleetwood Mac) then search: 9C4EGaNrAp4

[hgrebnesor]

@johnkess2174 Thanks for that link. I had never heard that version of the song before. Really different from all popular versions. True Stevie fans should take a listen.

[96Jazangel]

I watched this when it came to Aussie....seriously this was rigged she should have won!!!

[hgrebnesor]

@96Jazangel no question about it! But she came out of it with a great number fof fans world wide - all awaiting her first CD.

[96Jazangel]

@hgrebnesor Agreed! :D

[hgrebnesor]

I'm going to dream this song as I fall asleep this evening!

[HaleyReinhartForever]

cant wait for the ALBUM i will probably faint the day its in my hands <3

[marcosrainha]

Lindo...simplesmente lindo.

[darthGavin]

How amazing it is that she's already being compared to the greats (Stevie Nicks in this case).

[HaleySlaysIt]

Only 30,000 views??!! This performance is highly underrated.

[HaleySlaysIt]

I would love to hear something like this on her debut album!

[pooliette]

I envy the wind.

[TatianaLerman90434]

It's nice to see it slowed down a bit.. hear all the true colours in her beautiful genuine voice. One of her best performances, in my opinion.

[floodedtick]

What I wanna know is why do her top 3 performances have studio recordings EXCEPT Rhiannon im really mad at this

[beast1022]

U ppl should click this vid in2 your favourites as ALL repads vids could b taken down... another conspiracy... hhhmmm ?!?!

[floodedtick]

@beast1022 if they get taken down then they wont be in your favorites anymore

[75kimberly]

love it..

[boundlessloans]

Oops I should have checked.

here it is: watch?v=hSnSDjC8YM8

pass it on and please keep voting...

and here is the other version of her tour

watch?v=mUvyZrEoo7Q&feature=fe­edlik

[kclove121]

[beast1022]

She's HEAVEN 2 watch =) breathtaking !? Another perf worthy of a SO! She's simply beautiful 2 watch=) An amazing talent that NOBODY will evr duplicate !! She's also GORGEOUS ! Haley RULZ!!

[mashedpotato101]

love love love this performance by Haley <3

[SuperIknow123]

Voting has been extended for a few more days. shoot.

JLO may return to Idol. Shat.

[SuperIknow123]

We are way behind in votes at faxo wall vote. We need 700 votes in 2 hours when it ends. PLEASE. If you haven't been voting just pitch in today. We need to end at midnight at 20,000 votes for Haley.

[floodedtick]

This should've gotten a standin O!!! the judges even said that she hit the notes perfectly and that the performance was beautiful

[therese]

didi benami's (AI 2010) rendition is better

[realfinnatic]

@therese You are entitled to your opinion, of course. For me, after checking - Fleetwood Mac Rhiannon Live 1976 Stevie Nicks - I am most impressed with Haley's rendition - far better than Didi Benami or anyone else.

[SuperIknow123]

Isn't there a new release of Haley's today at Amazon?

YOU ALL ROCK. We are kicking butt on FAXO WALL VOTE. Please keep it up. It ends tomorrow night and we are needing to end with at least 20,000 votes.

[SuperIknow123]

Haley doesn't get stage fright? It's an uncontrollable physical reaction that maeks you go into semi shock and forget your script.

[SuperIknow123]

4 people have a hearing problem

[beast1022]

@hgrebnesor Been awhile since we commented ? U know I couldnt find that article in the Charlotte Newsobserverdotcom - I WANT 2 read it BADD!!! Haley can do NO WRONG on the tour :))) She's outsinging EVRY contestant w/o even tryin AMAZING she is:)!~ This article will REALLY benefit Haley in the long run as the Official Press Release(photo-copy on HRC site) has several MEGA STAR names & the # of views that RITD garnered in just a few weeks - LUV THIS GIRL - Later

[hgrebnesor]

@beast1022 check your inbox

[johnnycip]

Haley is signed to interscope records as of today . I guess Haley got the last laugh, while randy and j-ho keep kicking them sevles in the ass for dissing haley all season

[hgrebnesor]

@johnnycip It seems that Haley gets the last laugh at each and every stop of the Idol Tour. The following is from the Charlotte Newsobserverdotcom. “Third-place finisher Haley Reinhart showed more vocal prowess and charisma than the rest of the field combined; it was interesting that she, rather than Alaina, got the penultimate performance slot.”

Given this is ground zero for Scotty fans this is quite a compliment!

[233roz]

I heard Haley in a recent interview while on tour, that she loves performing and singing on stage. I don't think she gets stage fright. She was born to be on stage and sing. Such a showman. As Steven Tyler noted early on, Haley sings sexy, it is part of her. What a super star she is going to be. We cannot get enough of her. We all want more Haley.

[SuperIknow123]

She can really focus huh? Inspite of it all she hit it all out of the park.

Singing in front of millions would make anyone pee their pants except Haley.

Stage fright got the better singers the boot early on.

[SuperIknow123]

I wish repad had kept the scene of her family in where her MOM mouths WOW!

[SuperIknow123]

Yeah she's confident. She's all fo 20 years old. Amazing!

[howyoudoindirector]

Haley's Most Viewed Videos are being taken off youtube due to copyrights, and Nigel Lythgoe jealousy toward her popularity. Make sure we show him what "Hayliens" are all about make all her videos have a high view count!

[WinterWonder99]

I absolutely love her dress it is gorgeous! Just like she is! I think this is my favorite performance from her it's so tender and pretty. I wish we got a studio recording!

[happybrianna18]

ATTENTION EVERY HALEY LOVER!

@rhiannonhyatt- HATES HALEY! She keeps talking bad about her, and we don't like it! Copy and paste this to other Haley vids. to bring Haley hater to a stop!

[DanielFuscoMusic]

I'M STILL SO ANGRY BECAUSE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PIA AND HALEY IN THE FINALLY..... ONLY TRUE SINGERS UNDERSTAND WHY IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THOSE TWO IN THE FINALLY.

[bluewhale18]

i'm gonna say again

i've never come across a woman with such an amazing voice and such amazing beauty to go with it

i never thought it was possible before Haley came along

[hgrebnesor]

@bluewhale18 If it's the truth tell it!

[DowlingFaith]

AMAZING!!! I was so upset when she got eliminated...She should have won

[233roz]

@DowlingFaith That's for sure. Haley should have won. She is going to be a super star.

[seker7]

Amazing - the difference between the unsure girl who auditioned for AI and the confident daring and Talented woman she became before the show even ended...........

[LookingAtYouFool]

@seker7

.

AMEN!

[hgrebnesor]

@seker7 I thought she was confident from the beginning. In her audition tape she perhaps was portrayed as unconfident due to the prior season - go back and watch the confidence she displays after the judges remarks. From the moment she uttered "rock on" her confidences soared with every performance. I can agree that became nothing short of awesome – The TOTAL package. Let’s hope she does not sell out and truly achieves the greatness she is capable of.

[kmc9008]

absolutely beautiful!!!

[floodedtick]

Haley should've won, she had the most unique voice in the season and Scotty wasn't anything special he only won because he was "cute" and other crap and Lauren wasn't good either they sang the exact same thing every week, Country. On the other hand Haley sang different Genres every week and she even did country and did it better then Lauren probably could. My point is that Haley is the true winner and will probably have a better career then the other 2 will

[nhadz16]

thousand miles better than Taylor covering it it Grammys...

[coolgirl7787]

the week she got voted off i took every phone in my house and started putting in votes and i went on the computer

[hgrebnesor]

Isn't it sad that the Idol producers were not smart enough to get Stevie Nix to do a duet with Haley! She woulda' slayed it!

[happybrianna18]

You sent her home! BIG LOSS AMERICA! BIG LOSS!

[kmc9008]

absolutely beautiful and stunning.

[Oohgodnoo]

Anyone that can sing this song as it is, is way too good for this competition. but then singing it like this is just on a whole new level. I love how Haley's voice can just take your soul on a journey.

[nkjohnston80]

This performance is very very underrated...the way she just slows it down and smothers it with such heartfelt emotion is breathtakingly soothing!!

[aldo88120]

@nkjohnston80 im agree with u. no reason to get high when u have this videos to look at that gives u the same effect

[wikiwikivinco]

1:34-1:39 sent chills down my spiiiiiiiinnnneeeeee. : )

[happybrianna18]

Idol had a BIG loss sending Haley home.

[PrinceTian]

so sexay

[alstarfriday]

i love this song so much!!

[click4bio]

man, i really wish there's a studio version for this

[sybilian]

Thumbs up if you think that Haley and Casey would be a natural cover duo for "Stop Draggin' My Heart Around" .....just sayin'

[Addie2400]

This video is really hard for me to watch now... It just brakes my heart that Scotty didn't go home and that the two girls battle it out...That way, at very least, she would have been runner-up! Lauren's my favorite, but I really loved Haley, too.

[sadie513]

I am probably the only fan who didn't love this. I was a little underwhelmed. Maybe it's because that background singer was way sharp. Or maybe because this performance was short.

However, I loved the little change she did to "Rhiannon." And the wind effect was genius. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Actually, the wind machine was JLO's idea. At least she helped Haley with something!

[hgrebnesor]

@sadie513 Please don't credit JLO w anything. Early Stevie Nix used the wind machine frequently!

[sadie513]

@hgrebnesor It was really JLO's idea. I read it an article. The writer was able to attend the dress rehearsal. JLO was giving instructions to the stage people and to Haley about the wind machine. It's here: blogs.wsj.com/speakeasy/2011/0­5/18/american-idol-inside-the-­rehearsal-for-tonights-show/

[hgrebnesor]

@sadie513 I appreciate your followup - I saw the article. I still will not give any credit to JAYLOW. She most likely saw it used years back w Stevie. If you listen to her comments throught this season she just is not smart enough to have an original idea or thought. But enough on JAYLOW . Thank you for visiting w us in Haley's world.

[sadie513]

@hgrebnesor Sorry, I think the link I posted doesn't work. But it's from The Wall Street Journal Blog. This is what the writer said: "The judges listened intently to each song and Jennifer Lopez, after Haley’s song, put her producer hat on and told Haley and the stage manager to use the fan better during the performance. She took a few minutes in fact to demonstrate and explain to Haley where she should stand (“you could turn around”) and where the fan should go (“put it here on an apple box.”)"

[LookingAtYouFool]

@sadie513

The quote says she told them to use "the fan better," not that it was her idea. I thought I recalled Stevie Nicks doing something similar back in the day -- she always wore those long flowing sleeves. The quote about Randy and Haley "yucking it up" together was also interesting.

[sadie513]

@LookingAtYouFool Okay, let's not give her the full credit. LOL I just thought it was interesting she "helped her out" in this performance.

[hgrebnesor]

@sadie513 Thanks for being part of our community

[PandaLubb]

haha poor lady in the beginning shooing the fog smoke away lol :D

[TheBigDylan13]

@PandaLubb Lol I noticed that too. But then I had to slap myself because I realized I had taken my eyes away from the beautiful Haley :).

[seker7]

I couldn't imagine any Artist who has had Haley preform thier work (Adele, Stevy Nicks, etc) are going to be complainin' about it - since is that much more esposure for thier work (there has got to be at least a whole generation that is ignorant to THIS song's existantance)

[webkinzkid721]

MY name is rhiann! and my daddy named me after this song! who agrees that fleet woodmac an halley r the BEST SINGERS?

[Genie5049]

Haley Doesn't need American Idol ... Just a spring board for her........ Amazing.. Gave me Goosebumbs every time I hear her sing...... We all know she was the Real Winner......... She got better and better every time she sang and outshined them all...................



[happybrianna18]

Who the HELL is Stevy Nicks? And Haley went HOME!? RETARDS! SCREW IDOL!

[TheQuestForMusic]

@happybrianna18 Stevie Nicks is the vocalist of Fleetwood Mac who sang Rhiannon. And I heard Jimmy Iovine was her ex-boyfriend. Kind of creepy huh.

[happybrianna18]

@TheQuestForMusic Thanks. But, ya, it is kind of creepy.

[seker7]

Thanks again Repad for yet another briliant job!! This is by far my fav of Haley's performances for that night

[blawrence829]

@seekauwillfinda jlo is the one who put the fan there and said run it the whole time

[TheCameraLuvsMe]

All the people who are always bitching about her growling should listen to this. She has so much beautiful qualities in her voice. <3

[jaxotto2]

@TheCameraLuvsMe I agree! No growling or screaming and SOOO much better. Songs like this one really display her talent!

[sotannedupnow]

just imagine,she is only 20 ,,gonna get even better WOW!!

[crazycoolgirly123789]

she totally should have won well i hope she gets picked up by someonee!

[ando1135]

@crazycoolgirly123789 she got picked up by interscope records. awaiting her first single!!!!!!!

[BradytheCat]

Jimmy loved Stevie Nicks... and he loves Haley!! Great song choice - and VERY under-rated performance. Haley looks and sounds like a superstar in this one.

[pooliette]

just checking in on my daily round of Haley vids - the sound quality on this reveals the subtleties in resonance, inflections and timbre of her voice.This performance deserves more attention than it gets.

[hgrebnesor]

@pooliette Totally agree with you. Magic!

[pooliette]

sublime.

[alegnalina]

esta cancion es sencillamente fantastica y mejor aun interpretada por haley definitivamente!!! =)

[Bareno91]

2 people weren't promised heaven.

[marykatebth1]

i wanted her to winnnn!!!!!!!!!

[alitlluv]

She is beautiful!!!

[12345RachelH]

i meant song :)

[12345RachelH]

is this sog in a commercial?? it sounds familiar ....

[TheDreamCatcher86]

i want this on Itunes!!! why is it not on there?????

[SmokyCharles]

How is it possible that the wind effect can make her look even more sexier than she is??? WOW GORGEOUS!! Most talented in the comp. this year..I cannot believe she didn't win. Thanks REPAD for such great videos..always checking in to get my daily Haley fix!!

[tosarge]

Undeniable ear and eye candy.

[Emmie949]

The wind effect was perfect for this song. I noticed too, that they did an excellent job filming and lighting, staging "I Who Have Nothing." Even though Nigle (oh excuse me, Nigel), JLo and Randy Jackass were trying to sabotage Haley, she had some fans in the crew, that's for sure!

[Emmie949]

Each time I watch Haley's videos or listen to her songs I like them better, unlike most which you hear once and you've heard enough. They could have just ended the competition and let the rest of the season be Haley for the whole hour as far as I'm concerned.

[mau345]

is there no studio version of this? :( i really really want to hear it. thanks.:)

[lovelife757]

was her best song choice.

[woodward516]

Her BEST performance!!!!!!!!!!

[goodboyhoward]

flawless vocal, faithful to the original. even the "haley" voice is almost unrecognizable. that only the most versatile and most talented artists could ever pull off.

and Haley did.

[awesome2271]

Is there anything that this woman can't do amazingly? I mean whenever I watch her performances I always end up looking the same way, with my mouth hanging open. I am in awe.

[TheDreamCatcher86]

WOW! SHE IS SO BLESSED! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE! MY FAVORITE!

[rach93763930]

i reckon she was great, its a hard song because no one ever compares to the great stevie nicks. but hayleys voice is unusual too so it kinda works:) pia was still my fav tho

[Emmie949]

@rach93763930 Pia has a great voice, but no stage presence, no drama, no emotion, just the voice and that's all == BORING, and will not hold the attention of the public and won't ever do too much. She needs some development. Also, I've noticed in her performances after Idol, she strains a lot, where Haley slides through it like buttah!

[rach93763930]

@Emmie949 fair call, i defiantely see where your coming from. pia needs to sorta loosen up but i dont think she ever will. its just her voice that i think is amazing!

[yoly195946]

Awesome!!

[1717spec]

She is so good!

[dHoyhee10]

the dress, the wind, the lyrics..it really went with each other..."taken by the wind"

[BreakPics]

she'll go far

[johansantanaissocool]

1:03-1:23 she looks and sounds like an angel singing from the heavens

[LeenaY88]

wow amazing!!!

[summergirl722]

I LOVED THIS PERFORMANCE BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER IF SHE HAD THE MIC STAND AND SHE WAS WAVING HER HANDS AROUND ALL ETHEREAL AS JLO SAID...BUT YEAH STILL GREAT!

[SuperJourneyer]

If what i've read is true and that Casey fella goes out with her, then he is 1 lucky bastard!

[ILL777WILL]

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW thumbs up if u agree what else can really be said after watching this performance of a classic song

[bigandbuilt20m]

1:48 - 2:26 wow she really nailed the ending.

[LivisLaquis]

The way she moves with the wind in her dress and her hair, this performance is amazing.

I'm definately going to buy her record when it comes out.

I'm so addicted to her voice.

[dig4424]

i have tried going and watching Laurens songs, to see what her fans are hearing, and everytime, i find myself getting bored and coming to a Haley song. HMM?

[ILL777WILL]

@dig4424 Country music in the USA has a 70% market hold over all generations of music that's why it is a country music finale American Idol really need to overhaul the voting system and take account of these kind of facts

[ScarletMoon541]

Can't Believe She Left; But at Least She Got a Record Deal! ;D

But i am NOT watching the hillbilly showdown next week, the so called finale. -__-

[TheDreamCatcher86]

THUMBS UP!! if this is your favorite haley performance!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a HUGE SYEVIE NICKS FAN, BUT HALEY ROCKED IT OUT!!

[TheDreamCatcher86]

THUMBS UP!! if this is your favorite haley performance!!!!!!!!!!!

[lauramichelle131]

man, i wanted her to win.. she is AMAZING.. but if you think about it she's gonna have a better career since she wont be signed with AI..

[voronoire]

You have no idea how insane this was in person from the second row. The fog was thicker, you could feel the wind, and then those drums kicked in. It was like reaching the top of the first big drop on a rollercoaster or that moment when the magic of a kiss reall kicks into high gear.

[jerkhikel]

i lost 60% of my life, seeing you eliminated from the show. :((

[jerkhikel]

:( i miss u haley..

[KineticRuler]

I don't like her at all, but this was really good.

[prettylittleliarsx33]

She won in my head<3 congrats to america for making us have a boring country finale. whatever, she'll probably become more famous than them, and get a better record deal than the crappy American Idol one.

[gi624]

Jimmy is a great mentor...Haley is a superstar.

[meshuganah2011]

she was great!

[yourmommm123]

i meant high school talent show -karoake finale *

[yourmommm123]

i swear if lauren wins. I will never ever ever watch Idol again. this is no longer a talent show. i'm so dissapointed. have a nice talent show-karoake finale everyone. i won't be watching

[yourmommm123]

CONGRATS AMERICA, YOU JUST GAVE YOURSELF A BORING HO-HUM HIGH SCHOOL TALENT SHOW. country vs. country ? HA i'd rather fall asleep reading a book.
