  • This asshole absolutely destroyed this song. Look up The Clovers. They are the original group who recoreded this. This is an absolute terrible version.

  • Love James, hope he goes far in life. What a great talent !

  • Dear Paul McDonald

    YOU HOULDVE NEVER MADE THE AUDITION CUZ YOU R TERRIBLE!

    no offence...

  • James didn't win because people don't like someone to be original and make songs he sings his own, that's why Scotty won, same shit, different person.

  • @xixsurf4lyfe Actually its because more people in the world like country than heavy metal and the stuff James sings.

  • I loved James and Haley both so much! Lauren and Scotty should have been off a while ago! The only reason they stayed was because of stupid teenagers voting a hundred times and because they were young, people gave them more credit than they should have. They were good, but not as good as James and Haley!

  • I hate American Idols voting system. There should be a limit as to how many times people can vote on the telephone

  • how the hell did he get voted off after these two performances that night? arguably two of the best performances he did all season

  • still watching these videos :)

  • how cant you like that he is an amazing person and should of won

  • I just got James's album a few days ago. I LOVE IT! It's awesome. He did some cool and different stuff while not straying for the metal we love. The song May is the least metal but it is so emotional and his voice is great and the instrumentalists are as well. Plus, he wrote/co-wrote most of the songs on the album! Go get Memories of a Beautiful Disaster!

  • its 1956 idoit everyboby knows that are you alittle high

  • Comment removed

  • even though he didnt win i think his goin to still be famous like adam lambert

  • James should have won!!!!!!!!!!

  • james should have one but its everyones falt who did not vote he shold have won he is the shit

  • WHY THE FUCKING HELL AMERICA?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!? He was doing since he freaking STARTED, what the judges had been telling the other idols to do for MONTHS!! He is a true PERFORMER!!! He still is I mean. Trust me, in 10 years, people will be going "Scotty Who?" "What? Haley who?" and for him: "Oh! Yeah! I know him! Didn't he just go on another world tour? Just you wait America, JUST... YOU.... WAIT....!!!!!!!

  • @JamesDurbins1stfan I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU. I voted for him from the start, because I have Aspergers too. He was totally unfairly kicked off, and that was one googol plex (1 with 1000 zeros) times the shock of Pia's Elimination 5 weeks before. I am very pissed off at America for voting for those 3 self centered nobodies!! On the night he was eliminated I cried my eyes out for 45 WHOLE MINUTES!!! WHY AMERICA?! WHY?

  • You know what that show he.... he's got everything to be the champion !!!!

  • Is James version based on the Tygers of Pan Tag version of the song, or there is another heavy cover I missed?

  • I LOVE THE WAY HE SINGS :) :) :) :) :)

  • OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

  • he should do an album with all this stuff ... i would buy it

  • The first song (different vid) did him in... it sounded like he was taking it too easy because he could hit the high notes and gave the lower notes too much extension. It sounded a bit sloppy. (where's simon when you need him?) This performance was much better. But hey, he made his mark -- I predict you'll being see this guy again... when the AI contract is up. (Get yourself a good entertainment lawyer, kid.)

  • Should have been 3 guys on top 3! no chicks

  • Tygers of Pan Tang

  • that is what Rooney would like if he was younger and had the rock star look

  • sound like he has an acent 1:45

  • 1:45 rocks

  • FREE REPLAY! NO CHARGE! 0:00

    "Poision baby! Num-ber nine-- luv it James

  • who is looking toward his new album?!

  • He did have the best stage shows. Love him

  • Luv the ending ...plus I want some of that potion...he is HOT HOT HOT

  • He is amazing! He should not have been eliminated, neither should have Kacey!

  • they said he was kicked off because of a demonic look he had throughout the song... HE WAS JUST FEELIN THE MUSIC WHERE THE FUCK DO PEOPLE GET DEMONIC JESUS FUCKING CHRIST TOOK THIS SONG OLD OLD SONG OLD ROCK SOUND AND MADE IT 80S HEAVY METAL IN 2011 NOT MANY CAN DO THAT HIM GOING BEFORE HALEY WAS SHIT...

  • i met james

  • JAMES SHOULD OF WON HE IS FREAKIN AMAZING. THE TOP 2 WAS SO SO WRONG THIS YEAR HOW DOES A AWESOME ENTERTAINING SINGER LOSE TO 16 YEAR OLD  COUNTRY SINGERS WHAT A JOKE. JAMES IS THE REAL WINNER AN INSPIRATION CANT WAIT FOR HIS ALBUM.

  • 1:39 - 1:48 OOhh!!! OOhh!!! LED ZEP!!!!!!!!

  • when i first heard some guy tries to sing rock/metal on 'idol', i was like: riiight, some next gayass faker, who sings like disneychannel "star". but this is different. he really has what it takes to be the first real hard rock singer in this lame show. maybe its a sign of something better, a sign that not all drowned in this pop/rnb/rap crap and theres still some place in mainstream for good music

  • he might not compare to Adam Lambert, but he still fucking ROCK!! Shoulda been him, Casey, and Pia in the finals. no doubt lol

  • LOVE this. Great performance. Hot. Tyler said "incredible" and clapped. Tyler in a post interview was noticeably surprised by James getting voted off, btw. Total rock star performance (I'm not a sucker for the cynical anti-Durbin types). The audience loved the performance. I think it kicked ***. James went out singing James, and I'll think in the long run, he'll be happy he did.

  • Sorry, I think this bloke is a good performer, but killed the character of the original song.

  • And James fans im sorry but thats just the reality of it this performance was just ok and in that stage of the competition ok isnt gonna cut it you haved to be great and James wasnt that week and thats why he went home Scotty maybe should have gone that week instead but either one was a fair choice to go that week.

  • im sorry but this song convinces me why he went home that week however scottys young blood was 10x worse than this both of james performances where bad that week where as scotties 1st one was good and seccond was atrocious james where both just mediocore. Haleys first one was Ok her Seccond was outstanding and got a standing O, Laurens performances were both kinda good so break it down that week the top 2 should have been haley and Lauren and the bottom 2 should have been James and Scotty.

  • james is amazing! i cant believe he didnt win...hes WAYY 1,000,000% better than scotty!! the only reason why james lost was because of all the teens voting for scotty!! (i am 16 so i am one of those teens but i am a teen that understand wut GOOD, GENUINE music is!) ROCK/METAL all the way!! james you are amazing never stop doing wut u are doing i cant wait for your album either!!

  • @Luv2Rock333 IKR?!?!

  • 1:33 is sooo funny!!! I love his face expression! He's like ooh that felt good!! <3

  • Since 1996??? :) Garbage cover with a silly fucker who thinks he can sing. The 2 guitarists are alright, but where the hell is the bass and the drums? Fuckin' cover, ain't it? Terrible li'l creep! Stick to the original and forget the idols, megastars, x-factors and the others. Listen to music and give way to talent & art an' don't create some garbage. Steve Tyler's being the judge? Fuckin' shame as well, not that Aerosmith would B high on the list of clever lyrics but still...

    POMY COLLINGWOOD

  • how could you dislike this?

  • for chistmas i wish he was my brother and he doesn't have tourettes

  • Your hot james

  • the original song brought me here =D

    lol... nice cover though xD

  • He is a winner and I am actually glad he didn't win idol cause now he has full creative control of his music and has a bigger fan base who will follow him and buy his stuff. : ) Right? Anyone else get it? Watching for new CD's in the future.

  • LOL we sang this in class SOOO CATCHY!

  • Oh James, you'll have to buy new Journey ECLIPSE rock album in Walmart US. Its rock n roll.

  • noooooo james should have won but scotty won instead. james was so much better than scotty

    .

  • I cannot beleive he didn't win the whole thing. He's the best!

  • In class, our librarian was teachhing us some songs. We started singing this song and i immediatly recognized it :)

  • OoOoOoOoOoOoOoH YYEEEAAAAAAH ,love potion''baby'' NUMBER NIIINNE !!!<3 OMG THATS THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!! HE MADE ME GO OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOHH too !!!!

  • I love how he stopped and was like "Come on, come one" Then he started back up hahaha, loved it.

  • couple of noobs were in top 2...

  • JAMES DURBIN WAS F*CKING ROBBED! HALEY "MISS ATTITUDE" REINHART SHOULD HAVE BEEN GONE A LONG TIME AGO!!!!!

  • @MHC346 HELL YES!

  • @MHC346 I couldent agree more.

  • @MHC346 I could not agree more. His range is incredible. Haley not only cops an attitude, but her singing style is weird to me

  • @MHC346 I COMPLETELY agree!

  • @MHC34 I have no issue if you don't like her singing, but please look at the circumstances behind the supposed 'attitude' before criticizing her for it.

  • @MHC346 No. James was robbed, but Haley is great too. They should have been the final two.

  • I LOVE U JAMES!!!!!!

  • So tell me every week great compliments from judges, never in the bottom . .massive fan base so HOW DID HE GET ELIMINATED??? AI SCREWED UP

  • i agree!! mean while the others had moments on the bottom n they end up safe.. some ppl cant spot good tallent even if it was hitting them dead in the face. JAMES U ROCK idc what n e one saids!

  • James is the most BEST. Not only I but my 16 year old son and my 75 year old mother agree

  • Love love love James Durbin! I was so disappointed when he didn't make it through. But, he still has a career ahead of him; he doesn't need to be #1 on Idol to get his career.

  • what i think happed was that the phone lines were so busy that both numbers broke from epicness

  • @bud385 Um. Except Adam Lambert. Who did it first.

  • @LaRissaVienna uhh no. Adam Lambert is great. James is more solid rock. Adam is more pop. They are very different thank you very much. I agree so much with you bud385. JAMES, ROCK ON!!!! <333

  • how does James get voted off? JAMES?!? America I think you need to see a therapist. I am never watching this show ever again. How do u vote off pure talent???? I really think that Haley or Lauren should of gone home. BUT JAMES DURBIN???? YOU VOTED OFF PURE TALENT!!!!!

  • The finale wil be soooo boring now without James.

  • Now Scotty needs to win, was sure James and Scotty would be #1 and #2 at the end. Boy America really messed up once again.

  • He has so much talent- he will be popular without being number 1 on Idol. Very popular in the music business. We all love James Durbin. Go James

  • I loved his proformance I wanted either James or Scotty! I HATE HALEY! Go home! Go Scotty!!!!

  • Seriously James get voted off! How can this happen? 

  • The real problem here is when Lauren was the first one safe to make it to the top 3!? That was the biggest mistake committed by America towards James. Unforgivable. Scotty had a good night, Haley had her moment that night, they were destined to the top 3. (Now both should be in the finale definitely, hopefully Haley wins). James was great by this performance, no way he was leaving. I still can't believe he is gone after watching him again.

  • Support James Durbin by joining "The Durbinators" Group on facebook. The page is led by Russell Martin of Blue Pacific Photography, a James Durbin follower and personal friend of James and family for years. The goal is to have 100,000 members by Wednesday. Please help with achieving this goal.

  • Whoever voted for Scotty over James is stupid... James really deserves it MUCH MORE than Scotty. Do you know how hard it is to get out there each week, and sing like James does? James rocks us out and tries real hard to get the audience into the songs. All Scotty does is smile at the camera and sing. Forget Scotty. I have no interest in American Idol now that James is gone, but I'm gonna vote for Lauren now, in hope Scotty gets voted off. GIVE METAL A CHANCE! \m/ ♥

  • I just don't care really. BUT I don't want SPOILED BRAT Haley! She has an attitude I don't like!!! I guess I want Scottie. Lauren's good, but too young.

  • James is awesome...he never should have been voted off. I'm so disappointed, but I know that he will go far. The others also have talent, but now I just don't care who wins, James should have won the whole thing!! He is an American Idol.

  • i was so looking forward to james durbins name being called as the winner of american idol 2011. james is absolutely amazing an incredible performer so deserving of the title he had so so many fans never in bottom 3 what the hell happened damn it im still pissed . I really dont want the girls to win especially hayley shes boring . James wants scotty to win.

  • i was so looking forward to james durbins name being called as the winner of american idol 2011. the happiest moment ever so so wanted to see that james is absolutely amazing an incredible performer so deserving of the title . I really dont want the girls to win especially hayley the growling no audience interaction she looks nasty on stage shes boring.Least scotty has audience interaction hes sweet hes the only one who cried for james and he wants scotty to win.

  • I watch the ending over&over &OVER AGAIN!!!! AHHH OMG is all I say mmm DAMN!!!

  • I wouldnt vote for haley if my life depended on it!!!!!SHE SOUNDS LIKE A CAT IN HEAT!!!SHE SUCKS!!!!!!!

  • James fans let's vote for Haley (if you like her), you really want two country singers in the final? Haley have the guts to sing really hard songs and made to top 3! She take a lot of attacks from J. Lo and Randy and still standing. She deserve to win this.

    So please lets vote for her! GO FOR IT HALEY!!!

  • @jlqsaraiva17 there is no way we have to vote for her!!!... she is already thinking she is a diva! .... she should be at home already... this is not the kind of idol i was expecting... sorry! Lauren should be the next american idol

  • I love James Durbin!

    

  • 1:38-2:03 -- Amazing tribute to Robert Plant!!! James Durbin is one of VERY few performers capable of displaying vocal range, versatility, and showmanship comparable to that of Robert Plant, one of the true All Time Best performers in Rock! James Durbin is actually a far better performer than most American Idol viewers are capable of appreciating!

  • James is BOSS!!! Fucking idiots sent him home. FUCK YOU WHO VOTED SCOTTY INSTEAD OF JAMES!

  • he was awesome

  • god hes good and cant beleive he went home

  • The best part of Thursdays show was seeing him sing country. Final exclamation point on all he is. He did metal, the sang more classic rock, he did the crooner part then country too. You put in front of him and he just finds a way to do it even when you think no damn way he can work with that song

  • James is awesome. He is gonna be super famous some day... SOON! Love the ending. it's like "Love Potionnnnnnnnnn," dramtic pause "Love Poooooooottttttiiiiiooonnnnnn baby," dramtic pause "NUMBER 9!!!!!!!,"

    8 people don't have Love potion.

  • you thought? thinking requires a brain something you obviously don't possess

  • Idol is fixed, 3 of the best singers got voted off!!!

  • it should be JAMES DURBIN on HALEY's place!!

  • James you may have been voted off but you are MY IDOL and you deserved to win this. Really you had it all...voice...showmanship...pa­ssion...you could work your audience! I dont know what the voters were thinking but they are all nuts! You will be remembered always by many and certainly by me and I look forward to hearing you sing more when you make it big which I am sure you will! So rock on baby!

  • He should so be in Haley's place in the Top 3. UNREAL.

  • James deserved to win... he's such a sweet kid, and he tries so hard. He totally rocks out. James will forever be engraved in our rock memories!!!! ♥

  • james will be the next mccartney, he will rock on for a very long time, not everyone likes the same music, but he is here to stay........

  • James got kicked off tonight..protest!!!!!American Idol should be judged by..ah..judges..not teenage girls...

  • The end kind of reminds me stylistically of Led Zeppelin I.

  • Savior of old school rock right here ladies and gentlemen ;)

  • James is going to bring the 80's rock BACK!!! even though i'm born in the 90's :)

  • GIven the fact that Tourette's is characterized by physical and vocal tics, it's quite amazing that he does what he does each and every week. As for the screaming, he sings like a hard rock/heavy metal singer. That is his genre. No body cries that Scotty's vocals are completely monotone, because he's got that old school country thing going on. That's his genre. That is how it is SUPPOSED to sound.

  • What's "wrong" with his eye is called Tourette's Syndrome. Look it up. He is amazing.

  • Amazing! Haters get outta here. This guy is in another league-- GREATNESS--leave the pathetic comments to yourself!

  • What the fuck is wrong with you people?! How can so many dislike this? The same bunch of idiots that were voting for fucking Jacob over Casey.

  • @Typhoon792  Right on. Doesn't anyone love real rock n' roll anymore?!!! Geese! I'm dancing in my living room last night with my kids, having a blast! He can sing Journey and then this, and there are still doubters out there? Unbelievable. He stole the whole show last night.

  • @maxelca Makes me glad to hear. Thank you.

  • That dude was rockin it. Effn awesome.

  • what the hell is wrong with his eye? i'm curious to see what kind of music he puts out after Idol. american idol is taking any kind of rock edge off this kid. I think he can whale, so i hope the music he records will rock out!

  • Always amazing!

  • All he does is screammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...i am so over it!

  • from Philippines, YEAH! James is God.

  • so annoying

  • No fear.

  • GO BACK TO THE '80's WHERE YOU BELONG!!!!

  • James can SANG no one on idol ever was able to SANG the way James is capable of singin! period.

  • @bud385 Sang?

  • @SireChilde & ? having trouble with those big 4 letter words again try hooked on phonics I think they have a Junior version not too advanced for the likes of you they don't use those huge 4 letter words you have difficulty comprehending
