Bo Bice sings "In A Dream." 

This in my opinion is the best performance ever on American Idol. I remember seeing this live and was thinking he had won the whole thing after this.

The man can sing anything... the whole package, where ever you are Bo.... know that.

This is my absolute favorite!

Best season ever of this show. Talent was over the top. Loved Carrie Underwood but this performance was without a doubt the greatest ever; Bo should be an American Idol.

I still think he was the best performer that show ever had.

this performance by Bo Bice has remained my number 1 favourite performance of any/all reality tv singing competitions EVER. I loved it then and I still love it now!

My vote for best performance ever on American Idol.

I remember watching this live when I was like 3 years old and turned to my dad and just said "Wow"

This has to be my favorite performance Ever on American Idol. it's amazing. I think Bo should of won.

Excellent! Excellent! Excellent!!

Best Idol performance ever. Got to see it live in rehearsal. Even more mesmerizing with the lone spotlight.

All these years later....this acapella still gives me chills!❤❤❤🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

Just seeing this again gives me goosebumps. no other american idol has ever topped that!

every single time i listen to this i have chills and am overwhelmed by his soul and talent. brilliant.

The first time I watched this I felt chills up and down my spine and a tear in my eye! There is so much talent in this man...

This is one of the most amazing performances ever, his voice is pitch perfect, and everyone is stunned, nobody knew what to expect.

OMG! I Love BO BICE! He was so incredible on AI and still blows me away today....GO BO!...I get goose bumps when i listen to IN A DREAM...so talented.....

I lived stateside when this aired and it blew my mind. Been back in the UK now for 12 years and never forgot his name. Just stopped my truck for a break and for some unknown reason this popped into me head and I've just watched this clip... First time I'd seen it since it aired years ago. Still knocks me out. How did this guy not become an international rockstar?

Greatest performance

Definitely one of THE best moments of any idol series...

A black Sista here saying....I LOVE me some Bo and I too get chills still listening to this. I miss you Bo!

One of the top 3 performances EVER!!!!!!!! LOV U BO!

One day,when i changed channels,i've been caught by the first notes of this song and it sounds familiar to me... Then i reconized this song made by Ray Gillen(Badlands) and i almost cry...it's true! What a version made by Bo Bice...brilliant! Thanks for making this moment really incredible!

This is amazing. I wish more people would be daring enough to do songs a capella on the show.

This is so incredible! I love love love Bo Bice!

Bo's new cd See The Light now available at Wal-mart and online everywhere. Check Wal-mart for details. It's Bo's indie cd where he wrote and co-wrote all the songs and played guitar. It's a southern rock flavored endeavor with Witness as his first single.

Nobody else has ever had this kind of impact on the show IMO!!

closed my eyes,let it wash over me....goosebumps galore,he was definately robbed,damn the american public!!!!!

I am happy to say I did not watch much of the show after this season. For me until that season (granted which was a long time ago) this was the best performance ever.

this is the best performace in the history of american idol

This song is amazing and sung beautifully by Bo. If you listen to the words and then look at the pan shot at the end of the song, you can see a cross in the lights. I think this suits so perfectly

This is not only THE best performance on American Idol, but a legendary and timeless live performance. Bo, stay true to your roots! When is your next albume due? Rgds Roy EE Norway

amazing!! my favorite performance that entire season!

I agree, even when I saw it the first time live, I got chills up my spine. This IS the BEST performance of AI history!!! Go Bo!!

He ROCKED this song. I remember seeing this and it was one of the best. And he has a new cd out and he ROCKS it too. So no he did not go down hill. he had surgery and put out a new cd that is his roots and he sounds great.

I LOVED THIS FROM BO! WISH HE WAS MAKING RECORDINGS.

I thought he was going to win that year after watching him perform this piece. I wish him better luck. He is a very talented singer.

First time I saw him... I found just great!!

Oh my god!! I had not noticed that he had such beautiful eyes when I met him at Lakeline Mall here in Austin.

Bo Bice! THE SHOW STOPPER I REMEMBER THIS 1 WELL. I VOTED 4 HIM NO DOUBT IN MY MIND HE'D MADE IT. HE DIDN'T WIN IDOL BUT HE WON ME!

wow!

yep.. he should have won! This was THE best performance of AI history!!!

his apperance sends off a hard rock or metal tone

Think Carrie Underwood is very talented but during this competition there was just something very special and unique about Bo. We love him here in Helena Alabama!

Go check Bo's youtube channel Bobicecast. His new cd See The Light now available exclusively at Walmart stores and online on iTunes and elsewhere.

With this song he proved that he did not need to win American Idol.

still awesome

With or without band and back up vocals, You have to own the stage like a pro. This is a prime example!

Definitely one of the best performances in the history of AI.

Thanks a lot, people! I'll search videos of her, because I just can't believe anyone can sing better than this...Let's see what she's got!

That's an amazing cover of Ray Gillen/Badlands, he's a great vocalist.

The Best🖤🥀🖤👍

You go Bo. We love ya in Sweet HOme Alabama.

You misunderstand. He did not need to win. He did not need American Idol to make him a star. He proved he was beyond being in this sort of competition with this song.

Bo did Helena, Alabama proud!!!

Ray!!!!!!

The original is by Badlands, a UK metal band.

I love Bo, because he was bold enough to attempt this, I don't any other contestant has done this. Or did Katherine Mcphee sing Over the Rainbow A Cappella?

Better than the original by far..

@1955karyn adam lambert

The original song is by the band Badlands

Badlands!

BADASS!! Wish he would've stayed true to his rock roots!

It took serious testicular fortitude to do this.

OMG he's great! Was he the winner?

should have won!

Bo Bice would have won any other season of this show. He just got unlucky that Carrie was in this season.

This performance was excellent but Constantine's Bohemian Rhapsody was the best far.

This gentleman was robbed.

He should have saved this for the final. I think he would have won then..

Hot

completely agree - all downhill after this

Not really. It was revealed that Carrie won the votes every single week, even on weeks where she was giving bad performance(s).

i think that EVERY contestant should have to give a acapella performance at some point in the season. it would really separate the SINGERS from the WANNABE'S. personally, I didn't like Bo, but this is a good performance by him. Carrie was just MUCH better all in all. And alot better to look at.

bo reminds me of jesus

Not quite as good as Ray but a great attempt.....

this is bullshit i think he butchered this song....it was written by Ray Gillen...R.I.P....as im sure most of you didnt know....he was the singer for the the band badlands and also was in Black Sabbath at one time....Rays version of this song just blows this away in every sense of the word....its on the album Voodoo Highway from badlands....go listen to it the way it should sound...from Ray himself....
