  • can any body tell me what happened to those singers they sounded really good. i hope they all got contracts.

  • @94donnacone Jacob - just performed at the olympic closing ceremonies with his band Hedley. Kalan - working on his third album... slowly, lol. Theresa - two albums, still doing gigs and such. Jason - second album came out last Sept.. Shane - self-made albums with his wife and had a couple kids. Elena - went the theatre acting route.

  • lol, because i took the time to LISTEN to this (i am a HUGE Lightfoot fan) i "found" Kalan Porter...

    those contestants did a good job with this song, it's not supposed to sound exactly the same! geesh!

    yay Kalan Porter!

    and God bless Gordon Lightfoot, a treasure of the world!

  • I must admit I have never followed any Idol shows whatsoever. But did I seem to miss the boat on this one. God Bless You for posting this Gordon Lightfoot tribute! I get goosebumps no less that 10 times throughout this video. The singers weren't 100% perfect, but it was a joy to see their talents, and their own contributions to this timeless classic. Isn't that what the artistry of music is all about? A fabulous job by both the established talent, and all of the emerging generation.

  • I happened to come across this because I missed the US X factor this week. All of these kids have stronger voices than just about anyone I've seen on US or UK talent shows - X Factor, got talent, Idol or the voice. Send this to your friends in US and UK ( and Australia). Amazing showcase for all, including GL and his music.

  • i wanna do the girl in green shirt O_O

  • Masterpiece, that's it, that's what it is :)

  • they all did really good, but i think Jacob and Jason did the best!

  • That Hedley idiot still sucks.

  • @94donnacone i dont know but i live in Australia and thought they were brillant

  • 0:53 Time has no beginning and this mandolin has no strings. She could at least do a better job faking it.

  • thank you for sharing..knowing him personally, I loved the tribute to him on an incredible song that celebrates Canada and its heritage.

  • Geez the kids did a good job eh? No doubt.
