  • Try watching Bob Marley versions and Ziggy Marley's covers of it. They're here on youtube. Seems neither Constantine, nor his "whoooo-ing" crowd have even the slightest understanding what this song's about. It's a song you LISTEN to, not one you go "whooo!" too while some American Idol singer preens and postures and flips his hair back. It's about slavery, and it has Bob looking at his life, and the life of his ancestors, as he sings about the past, present and the future.

  • I agree. There are some artists that shouldn't tackle a song such as Redemption Song, and Constantine is one of them. I can't think of any American Idol contestants who could suitably cover this song. There's no depth in his vocals here, and it sickens me to hear the girls screaming in such shallow fashion. Redemption Song is NOT a song you go "whoooo" to.

  • Constantine is one amazing singer. I just love him!

  • I'm sure those of you who are slinging all the insults can do it better?

    Everyone may not appreciate the presentation and I'm down with that, but try listening without watching if that's the case.

    He sings it beautifully. He's not trying to imitate Bob Marley, just sing his song.

  • I think he sang the song very good.
