Personally, I think JHud, LaToya, and Fantasia are the three best singers this competition has ever seen in terms of sheer vocal ability. Each one was different but they all had such power!! What a show this Final 3 would have made! Can you imagine? They would have blown the rafters off that place.
You are so right..to me this was the best season AI has EVER had. Fantasia, Jennifer, Latoya and George literally sang circles around the other contestants head almost every night LOL I mean it was RIDICULOUS. Vocally they were on a different level that everyone else. I think diana, Leah and Jasmine all had cute voices but when it came down to "showing up and showing out" infront of the crowd..it was no comparison who the top singers were that season. Much love to the 3 Divas and Mr. G. Huff :)
Incredible, incredible, incredible. No words. Fantasia Barrino, LaToya London, and Jennifer Hudson. Three of the greatest voices American Idol has ever seen.
After hearing the ending song I made it through the rain, i fell in love the song and think that it is so great. The women here not only expressed their amazing talent but really brought this son to life.
Best voice tonality, Latoya, hands down! Best voice depth, Jenni Hud Most passion, Fantasia HANDS DOWN But......... at the beginning I just KNEW Latoya was gonna win, especially after she sang "Power of Love"
wow, its like ... when everyone sang solo i was just dead. but when jennifer hudson came out.. its like... WOW! can't get my eyes off her and her voice!!! AMAZING! she should have won!! shes like the only one whos the best among all of them. !!
What a shame we did not get to see the Diva's to the end. All three ladies are very talented. Jennifer was my favorite but she proved talent can win in the end. Very talented group that season.
love the ending with the three divas, who were the undeserving bottom 3 during manilow week, sing a beautiful manilow song together to symbolize that america had truly gotten it wrong
My favorite year ever. Fantasia's win was the most powerful AI win ever!! Problem with the finals is that when the public votes, they split votes. Fantasia, LaToya and Hudson (diva powerhouses) each claim a similar voting base (powerhouse divas) and Diana DeGarmo attracts AI's watching base (midwest/country fans) and hence, we never get to see Kelly v. Tamyra, Latoya v. Fantasia, or any of the finals we should. Sad, but true.
I don't think it was the best, but it is certainly up there. This season produced Jennifer Hudson who is phenominal!, Fantasia is still doing her thing in the R&B world and has performed for such greats as Patti Labelle, Aretha...
Awww.....Fantasia, JHud, Jasmine, Amy, George, LaToya, Leah. This season was the best!!!!!! Fucked up part though? I set my VCR to record the show to watch when I got off work and ended up recording the damn news.
5:56 that's when the real show begins. Chills...I continue to get chills when Jennifer, Latoya and Fantasia take the stage. It should have been them in the top three. American Idol voters or the producers -- whoever! Conspiracy or not, it's wrong how Jennifer and Latoya left so early. Diana Degarmo didn't have a chance against Fantasia -- especially when you compare her version of 'Believe' to Fantasia's. PALES IN COMPARSION BY FAR!
Jennifer hudson should have won this season. I will say, her voice has matured and she has gained control over it since her American Idol experience. She is definitely the most successful from this season. Just to prove it even more, she made the top 7 and George Huff (made top 5) is now her back up singer!!.. haha Go J-Hud!!!
The only reason that I watch half of the season was because of Jhennifer, for some reason she remind me of a teacher I had in Puerto Rico, plus I loved her voice.! I'm so happy to know God blessed her the way He did.! Still can believe she dind't won the show, I dind't like Fantasia that much..but I guess everything ended up for the best.! God Bless
xKeyshia I love the Season 3 video. You don't happen to have the video of Jon Peter Lewis performance A Little Less Conversation for the wild card spot do you? I can't find it on here anywhere!
I started watching Idol on Season 3. I liked Diana DeGarmo. I've been trying to find someone who has the entire Season on DVD to trade or buy it. I have Seasons 4,5,6, and 7.
@hattiehedgehog well let me tell you... since Jasmine is from hawaii and she's also half filipina, she's getting lots of support from people from and hawaii and filipinos based in america..
Lol the beginning was pretty cheesy,but I still loved it.Jennifer,Latoya and Fantasia saved this performance from being bad.Still these season is one of the best!
Best season ever, in my opinion. Season 2 is a close second. Followed by season 5. The rest of the seasons I didn't care too much for one way or the other, though Carrie Underwood is probably the best contestant to ever win on the show.
@ronnald89 - The ensemble was fantastic but Fantasia, Jennifer, and LaToya's trio stole the show! That's probably why they put their trio last. O'gosh - Unbelievable!
I was trying to figure out how Jennifer lost and now I see, she was up against Fantasia, anyone remember Temira grey from I think the first season, she did pretty well after american idol.
@ronnald89 SO TRUE...best season ever...Jennifer, Latoya and Fantasia (and occasionally George) were straight up killing the rest of the competition night after night. The others were cute and average singers, but those four were killin it on the stage! The competition honestly to me were out of those four. The only person I saw that might could have hung with them were Leah Labelle, but she was young and wasn't quite polished like the rest of them, but she could sing!
