Fantasia - I Believe

[gangstaladie]

who knew she be singing for the president!!!

[iluvjp6321]

I saw Barack Obama cool!

[CreoletoKreyol]

I'll glad when then song finally stops bringing tears to my eyes.

[MissMd05]

Every time I watch this I get goose bumps.....and it's been what 5 years now!!

[KianaaShibuyaa3]

TASIA IS MY NAME TOOOO

[Kaseylee329]

sorry to everyone... but I still hate her voice. 9 years later.... dang.

[serrita215]

Just made me cry

[babykay1able]

chiils rocking my body.........

[56jee]

i still go for charice's version.. :-P

[JumperSC]

@56jee I prefer Fantasia's version but Charice has an incredible voice.

[loswaldo777]

@56jee

Me too. Charice really shows how this song should be sung and Fantasia is way, way off. I don't mean to pit one star against another or even one fan against another, but the plain truth is the plain truth - Charice blows this song clean away. Have a listen yourself watch?v=1McSQwmZ2Jg

[mrdavid11t]

@loswaldo777 and @56jee both of you are comparing a girl who has had alot of vocal training to a woman who just came from nowhere to american idol dont be idiotic / racist just because a little girl with a smooth voice sang the same song as her you shouldnt even compare them because they sing different types of music DISSSAPOINTED IN BOTH OF YOU

----admin----

[LadyTopShotta]

@mrdavid11t THANK YOU!!!!! I so love this comment, very well said! @loswaldo777 and @56jee I don't think I will ever get the point of why people feel the need to put people down, it is both juvenile & idiotic. They both did an amazing job singing with the emotions that they felt in that moment & they are both truly blessed with a talent, POINT BLANK PERIOD! Fantasia was not "off" to those of us that listened with both our ears & hearts so please keep your negative stupid comments to yourselves!

[OfficialSoFly]

Yall notice dey showed obama like 3times

[brandenmcghee]

@OfficialSoFly I just noticed that.

[mrsw89a]

[ErinAlexis86]

No matter what she's singing... It always feels like you're in church when Fantasia sings. She puts that gospel soul into everything she sings.

[sherlby32]

MY GOD MY GOD MY GOD TASIA CAN SING THATS ALL I HAVE TO SAY U GO GIRL

[mradkins2011]

The Future President & First Lady was feeling that at @4:15

[rashard418]

attention guys the time as come to started requesting her new single "collard greens and cornbread" on your local radio station and buy it on itunes so we can get our girl to the top

[mrkgt12]

@4:22 was epic!

[mrkgt12]

WOW! No words can describe this. oh God! She's so good!

[Nismo30DE]

what else can you say but brilliant and raw it just hits you right in the heart and sends chills down your spine just like when she performed it here in Hawaii on the idol tour we need more singers like this today that sounds exactly like the record if not better live. this is real singing!! and both her and charice's version is great, two totally different styles though can't really compare the two and why would you want to?? they both are real singers not just a bunch of studio magic, etc

[hakdevtramak]

[zappit1029]

I didn't think Tasia could do this song any better than the night she sang it on the AI finale and pulverized Diana DeGarmo. She just FANTASIARIZED again!! Awesome performance!!!

[RSDjam17]

Living Testament of what can happen if only you "believe"! Like Oprah said at the very end of this video.... "WOW"!

[nosajloml]

i just noticed Barack and his wife in the audience

[arjayfigueroaphil]

what was the position of obamain government way back that time?

[shaynes88]

he was the state Senate at the time

[pshhitsdaulton]

wow, this is such a touching song (:

[jojokis84]

its sad that she wore this dress ! not elegant at all :((

[DeafTuber]

Wow!!! She tore it UP! Did you see Obama was very impressed!

I HOPE TO SEE Fantasia in concert!!! She's amazing!!!!

[kvt1013]

this is so touching

but sometimes she overkills it with her repeating reverberations

[MegaDerrick123]

fantasia is amazing and i love her

[shaynes88]

This gurl is da mofo TRUTH!!!! omg..I love her...I LOVE when she "SANG" this song...she sings it wit conviction...makes you think that u can do it...cuz "fantaisa did it" I Believe...WOW. SPEACHLESS

[MeccaBoo717]

She is so amazing

[ghanaianprincess90]

[AlfordMatthew]

THIS MY GRADUATION SONE:)

[piihau]

Beautiful Fanny.

Kia Ora from New Zealand.

Love this.

[popinfresh]

Kia ora! :)

[J7856]

the whole audience went crazy...I just love those types of performances

[erixtian]

me and my students will sing this song on march 30... i hope we can pull it off!!! very large boots to fill!!

[mckinneymisses78]

I cannot watch this without crying!!!! It motivates me to my best each time I hear this powerful performance.

[kapwepwe]

@mckinneymisses78 omg me too!! i get goose bumps and i tear up.

[ZinderW]

She took me to church this Sunday morning.

[starler]

I just bumped into this video and went nuts. Not only did Fantasia win a well-deserved award, brilliantly "sang" the house down with her performance of "I Believe", but she sang in front of then FUTURE PRESIDENT Barack and Michelle Obama! When I saw that brief shot in the audience, I just about fell out of my chair. I'm SO PROUD of my girl Fantasia I could burst!

[klighta40]

This song always raises my pores, and brings tears to my eyes, because it is true and it comes from the heart. That's why feel it

[alabama2005]

we sang this at my high school senior class night a good few years back.lots of folks cried...i didn't.lol!

[foreverhauntedxx]

Hey, what award did she win? xo

[25MENEN]

well bless

[omarieswifey]

am i the only one who thinks "this song should have been sang at the inauguration". I tried to send the Obama team an email but they didn't reply...it would have been such a beautiful song for the occasion

[Bniceuk]

you are so right about the inauguration. Think she should have taken arethas place to be honest.

[girlilious]

obarma and machelle are lik yea girl

[Kanoelani259]

Don't get me wrong when I say this, I am a big fan of Charice Pempengco, but this is Fantacia's song, what feeling and emotion she puts into this song that you can actual feel her love for what she has become. And how ironic to have Obama as a rising African American who is now our President. "I BELIEVE"!!!

[0yungstar9]

2:55........go Barack

[momodani7]

what yr was this cause I c Barack up in there!

[shaynes88]

2007

[momodani7]

thanks a bunch :)

[slimtee2]

This was in 2005, not 2007. He was being honored as a rising star in the Senate.

[shaynes88]

omg i didn't know obama was there...and this girl is bad!!! she is my insipration too. i am a young mother and I Believe that i can make my dreams come tru as well...I just look at fantasia..and her story is unbelievable

[kentydic]

Fantasia is one of the most awsome singers that i have ever heard She may not have the range that some others have but she got the ability to touch your soul with her voice and you have to love her for it

[y3heyTrip]

You don't know music..thats why you say that

[calvin60616]

Well go listen to Charice Pempengco version cause FATASIA IS THE TRUTH Dumb ass!!!-Well go listen to Charice Pempengco version cause FATASIA IS THE TRUTH Dumb ass!!!-Well go listen to Charice Pempengco version cause FATASIA IS THE TRUTH Dumb ass!!!-Well go listen to Charice Pempengco version cause FATASIA IS THE TRUTH Dumb ass!!!-

[junsibal]

charice is a GREAT singer. and just because she's a filipino dont say that rude things to her. do u know that SHE IS THE MOST or GREAT SINGER EVER!!

[calvin60616]

What the hell does her being filipino have to do with anything. My comment was based on the fact that you continue to copy and paste "Charice Pempengco - I Believe -IS way Better" and so I simply suggested that if you felt so passionate about Charice, then listen to her version and leave Fantasia ALONE. Why do people think everything is about race. You shot your own self in the foot with your intitial sophomoric comment.

[junsibal]

oh. sorry! lol.

[DoubleDBlogXX]

charice is good@ but its tasias song@ and no one will ever beat tasia;s version!!! sry!!

[mrswise99]

She needs to sing this again for PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!! WE ALL BELIEVE!!

[bornblessed10]

GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY, LOL!!!!

[disturbiant]

Obama speechless, meditating, fascinated, back in 2005.....Yes we can....yes we did....!!! ...and now we all believe....!!!!

[apureterror]

It comes from the heart and soul in a pure form. Thank you Fantasia. Beautiful. Wonderful.

[sanaaabigail]

BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL, BEAUTIFUL. God has blessed her with a powerful voice.

[bornblessed10]

FANTASIA has done it again. This girl is my inspiration. From a singer's perspective, to come out and sing with that much sould shows that there is something more than just a voice...there is struggle, there is pain, there is happiness all in one. That song was MADE just for Fantasia and she sung it like there was no tomorrow. She didn't sing that, she SUNG it.

[kenzosin]

Fantasia, your moment has finally arrived! You are already a SUPERSTAR ! You ripped the stage apart with your powerful vocal! Wow!

[UrLvr4Lf]

FANTASIA IS A BEAST LIVE!! She rips any stage she steps foot on, it's like Patti LaBelle has passed on the torch and said SING ALL YOU WANT HEFFA!! Love them BOTH!

[shaynes88]

man i don't think that BEAST is the word for this gurl...damn...mayb it is for the moment, cuz i can't think of anything ELSE to describe her when she is performing. But wouldn't it be stupid (stupid as being awsome, amazing, on point, etc..lol)if she sung this song for Barack's inauguaration next year?!!!!! that would be.....damn....AWSOME

[momodani7]

OMG YES! I would love that!!!!

[wippleandie]

definitely!!!!

[PaTiEnCeMyL0Ve]

OMG, thats the perfect song for the occasion!

[Chris9916]

4:21-25 WHAT WAS THAT?

[UrLvr4Lf]

4:21-25 is what singing from a deep rooted pain is all about!! That means sing like it's your last time singing and she did JUST THAT!!

[shaynes88]

You took the words outta my mouth cuz chris9916 don't know what music is, because if he did, he wouldn't have asked that dumb ass question.

[chopwood]

amazing and kerrie washington is so beuatiful! they show her at around 4:10

[reeree1208]

Did u see the look on kerrie washingtons face. She was in a trance. Tasia will do that to ya.

[amor1vincit7omnia]
