This performance was one of my all time FAVORITE of hers in Idol. I totally disagreed with the judges then and still now. Love you Tasia. Waiting on a remake of this cut. Beautiful!
I just love this version!! In my humble opinion, the judges were and are still wrong. If Ms. Barrino were to release this song as a single today, i'd buy it immediately!
she did a great job on this.. i really felt this performance.. i know a good performance when i see/hear it. especially when it makes me close my eyes n start nodding my head.. 10/10
I swear that I watch this performance specifically for @1:19-@1:52 😍😍 She put so much soul into that. I swear she was 19, singing like she was 56. And still sings with an old soul today
Fantasia version was the first time i ever heard the song lol. And i absolutely loveeddddd it. I remember this night clear as day. Man that woman is so BLESSEDDDDDD. Her voice...i feel God. So proud of her
I remember when she performed this the first time I thought " Simon and Randy are trippin"! She did that damn song and I bet you when they go back and listen to it now, they agree! There hasn't been another idol that can touch her since!!! Her stage presence and performance are amazing!!!
OMG I love this rendition! I love all Fantasias performances - but the performances Simon didn’t like at the time I just ADORE IT! Love you Fantasia…..
i think this is one of her best perfomance. Actually, my husband played this version for me on my birthday in 2004. I'll always remember this song by fantasia. Go Fantasia
Big ups to Fantasia. you are just wonderful and my heart loves you and your music. My children love you. I sent one of your videos to my man and he loves you. Keep them coming.
The arrangement was off she had to take control and push the performance..... Key parts gave me chills and I dropped the phone. The girl knows how to vocally finesse a song with those "yeah" words & "alright" baby....! I'm here for all the hollering!!!!😅❤
Literally makes me cry every single time. The judges didn’t want to admit it cuz the band left her hanging in the beginning n then she OWNED IT!!! This was a movie.
The male judges were off, off, off! Fantasia tore this song a "NEW" behind in her own voice and rendition of this song! Beautiful, Beautiful Fantasia!!!!!!!!!
AN IMPORTANT FYI IS THIS WAS CONTESTANTS WEEK, THE FINALE..FANTASIA CHOSE THIS SONG ON PURPOSE TO GIVE RECOGNITION RESPECT AND SHOW HOW PROUD TALENT RUNS IN THE FAM, PERFORMING HER COUSINS BIGGEST HIT...BLESSED #kci&jojo
Seriously Fantasia I love that girl and she killed it for me. And she says " Thank you Simon" At the end when Simon starts getting on to her. I reallyl ike that. what a lady ^^ Team fantasia All Day !!!
This was a good rendition of "All My Life" by Fantasia. Now, here is something that nobody knows but I found out that Fantasia happens to be related to both K-Ci and JoJo. They're cousins! It's nice how she kept it in the family and covered this song!
Ive been looking for this performance, thank goodness... I loved this, even though judges thought it wasnt all that... But, look at the old white man in brown jacket behind Simon at 3:57 clapping when Simon said that. Hater, clappin by his self, probably a pedafile or something!
She did an absolutely amazing job with this performance. I loved her arrangement. However, Simon was correct in his response. The song wasn't popular amongst the AI audience so not only could they not connect but her arrangement definitely went over their heads. But in the meantime I have this on repeat. lol
It really didn't matter because she sang summertime and her last song was "I believe" which means she had the competition locked up..the majority of the people won't get that kind of performance unless they come from the church..and when the choir came out for "I believe" I knew it was over.
@MrLuigiable Yeah, that's what it is homie, thumbs up on that cuz I wasn't feeling this really...I mean, it wasn't bad but it wasn't really good either..
The judges were following a script that I have noticed throughout all these shows. There must be at least one negative criticism no matter how well the person sings and performs. I say "Boo" to them. They were absolutely wrong, wrong, wrong.
