Goodbye Carly Smithson Jesus Christ Superstar Studio version 

I love Carly......she grew on me, and she was definitely one of the top 3 talents. I can't wait to see her and David Cook rock out on a duet.....hopefully when they tour!

i love this performance of her, its so sad shes gone now

This is freakin awesome. She was great on the show this week and this is even better.

our YOuth Pastor showed us part of this movie (Jesus Christ Superstar 1973) today. it is hilarious!

She sounds so good on studio!

Carly is way, way too good for the viewing audience of American Idol. They didn't get, didn't comprehend, a talent of this magnitude. The people who see the Idol Tour might get Carly Smithson better live.

Love this "Irish girls" voice.

Wow! Very nice!

Carly is my American Idol, well technically she's Irish but still come on this is pretty freaking awesome.

wow...this WAS amazing. I cant believe she went home...shudda been jason castro.

unica carly

ya I totally agree!

She didn't deserve to leave.

She generally held back on the Idol Studio versions and delivered the big vocals on the show. The music here on the studio is way less dynamic too. Still it is good.

i think it is possible that a lot of christians heard this song, and wondered about its message, so they didn't vote for her.

Carly and Syesha are the best contest of this season..but america is stupid and neither one of them will win..its a BIG shame...That would have been an AMAZING finale with Syesha and Carly

at least she got to leave on a good performance

amazing voice, can't believe she was voted off, that sucked and I never watched AI again after that season, NEVER!!!

BOO Jason! Go Carly! Jason should be out, not Carly... : (

popularity vote so unfair for carly!

Carly has a fine voice, but for some reason I could never warm up to her.

She should have won.

Gosh, she's SO MUCH better live. When she gets ready to make her album, they need to find a way to bring aspects of her live performances in. Overly produced.

Carly should NOT have been taken out! I think it's because she's not American. What is wrong with the minds of Americans these days? I thought she was gona make it to the top 3.... *sigh*

Brooke u suck!! U should go instead of Carly! It's a definite popularity contest with no talent since Jason & Brooke r still in! They can't sing! I don't think anyone except for DC deserves to win! Carly hv always bn a winner! She's awesome as a singer, performer and definitely an entertainer. She's the gal with huge potential, talented and hv an awesome personality. I hope she do well in the music industry! Can't wait for her album to be release! Im sure it will b a blast! Love ya Carly!

Syesha's a great singer, Jason is horrible, Carly's great, David A. is getting boring, Brooke was a great singer, but she messed up a lot in live performances, and David Cook is AMAZING.
