You know, oftentimes when they don't win it's better for them bc they are free to hook up with a better gig than be tied to a contract with A. I. and couple of years of followup work on the road with Idol. He's got it and somebody wants it 😊
This man is amazing!!! He definitely is a winner ! He sings with emotion he touches your soul he touches your spirit!! When he sings he makes your life change! Amen
Arranging MJB's EPIC "No More Drama" into an emotion-lacking, toe-tapping DANCE TUNE is revolting, hideous & INSULTING. This contestant was nearly smiling as he bounced around, SCREAMING (which, btw... does NOT equate to a TRULY heart-felt performance ). He showed NO REAL heart. NO REAL feeling. NO REAL "drama." AT... ALL. This was embarrassing. And shameful. Just shameful. Other than Ms. Mary J. Blige herself, ONLY ONE Artist has EVER... TRULY done this song justice. To hear a WORTHY, MIND-BLOWING "No More Pain" performance as it SHOULD... ONLY... EVER... be done: The incomparable James Arthur's stunning, HEART-WRENCHING, GENUINE, performance of the EPIC Mary J. Blige Anthem... "NO MORE DRAMA" ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IhNOZ8O9BGE.html
He did not win because they don't want real singing. No they wanted some luke warm singer sounding like a croaking frog or a group sounding like cats with belly ache so they can market them and make money. Oh no, they don't want a first class performer like Joshua, with technology these days people who are tone deaf and who only bombard our ear drums with clattering and banging, and a cat's choir and suddenly they are a big name and a star. or maybe if he wore shorts and high heels with make up and a flowery head band and girated like a drunken man, throwing his briefs into the audience, then they might have picked him.. Well he is a star anyway without having to prance up and down and twerk like an electric floor cleaner gone crazy.
This is one of the greatest performance by Joshua or anybody . He should of won with mans, man's world, and certainly after singing this song he definitely should have won. He gave his all in every song and out sung everybody on the show. Even the other contestants knew this.
Here in 2021!!!! Great performance years later. True artistry....I am a church girl....yes he has soul, but don't put him in a box. He has shown that he is a diverse singer👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
how the hell did Phillip Phillips win this competition?? Joshua got third place ... how possible is that?? Jessica Sanchez didnt win it either.. wonder if America really voted or it was some form of politics..
I can tell from the look on Jennifer's face, and the way Joshua sang THAT song specifically. Even from the judges responses after the performance, they were always a bit more unhinged with there praising of Josh. They were too tame and laid back that night! They knew he wasn't going to win, and he knew he wasn't going to win, for several reasons, but I'll just say politics. There is no way you can make me believe that this man did not deserve to win that title. The producers would not allow him to win for other reasons which I won't mention. But I know enough about this industry to know, Joshua was always fighting an uphill battle which is extremely unfortunate because he is probably one of the best male vocalists to come around in the past 10 or 15 years.
Kal Heisenberg :I totally disagree with you about Joshua being unattractive. Have you seen Joshua lately, He is not only very handsome but getting better and better each time I hear him. He is fantastic and I guarantee that no matter how hard the industry tries to hold Josh down, he will and already is a star the US and all over the world. No one will stop him, because he has the boss (God) behind him. Whatever he has for him, nobody can take away. There is no singer out there with a better voice or can entertain people like Josh. His music goes deep into your soul. He is in the right time . This is his time.
NJPrinc3 - "The producers would not allow him to win for other reasons which I won't mention" = now you sound like one of those tin-foil hat wearing conspiracy theorists. What's next, your views on how the moon landing was faked, and how the Russians are trying to poison our water supply with flouride?
I can sing, but I have never been so jealous of another man's singing voice!! Wheewww wow. He should have won for sure!! Now why hasn't Clive Davis or someone signed him yet?
I spent my afternoon listening to Joshua, this young man just fills my soul with all of his songs, I play them over and over I think he is the only concert I would go to see he has so much personal presence. I am 65 years old and he is one of the best singers I have ever heard.
He took it to church!!! honestly I dont think he planned to do that. sometimes you wanna go one way and when God pulls you another way he gets the glory!!!
Joshua is great whether he won or not! His God given gift is there for all to see. Yes he was the best! But God will take him as far as He wants him to go. Heaven.
To date he’s still the best artist on AI. It’s 2024 and I still listen to Joshua. Can’t seem to get enough of his singing. I pray God blesses him beyond measure. He’s just that amazing.
@3:03= I didn't even notice his earpiece came off when he took off his jacket, when J-Lo said that I had to go back and watch again and she was right! dayum - Josh is a TRUE musical pro to have sung so amazingly even after not having the cues, beats, or backup music or whatever being piped in his ears
It comes from God-given talent and singing in church all of your life with the sound systems that you have to work with from church to church. No monitor or in-ear piece is no big deal.
Astonishing. Just played through Joshua's Idol career thanks to "Adam Fox". A truly extraordinary singer & a great natural performer. I hope the career he deserves materializes for him.
2019.....I will ALWAYS come back to this. Besides Mary herself. NOBODY else had ever sung this song with so much emotion & passion. U can feel it in ur spirit.
Does anyone know what Joshua ledet is doing these days? I hope his talents don't go to waste. Damn, he moves the soul!!!! so incredible. Every time I watch him it's like watching him again for the first time. 😍
This song was in my head so I entered the name of the song & this is the first thing that came up. Halfway through his performance, “something” told me to 👀 at the date. I was literally lead to this song on the exact same date that it was posted “April 8” & when I realized that, I started crying. This was such a powerful performance & I felt every word he sang so-much-so that I know for a FACT that my Angels brought me here. And at the RIGHT moment. ❤️❤️❤️💎
So where is Phillip Philips now?? lolz. This is upsetting. To know that this kind of Guy did not win the competition even at least get to the top 2! Joseph and Jessica All the way! I even researched for this more than the current American Idol! Just sayin!
Phillip is doing amazing things. He's made 3 very good and popular songs and is even trying to break out of his AI record deal because he feels they are not letting him do stuff that he knows he can do. He was a good winner. Jessica was also good.
Absolutely insane that Joshua was eliminated after this performance. Guy should have ran away with this competition. He was mountains above the competition. The discount version of Dave Mathews won this year instead. Jessica Sanchez had a very powerful voice as well
This man sung with so much passion in every song he done on American Idol and for him not to win it. I stopped watching this show because they full of crap!!!
I think America just fell in love with this young man... he's ripping for sure. Randy's right... amazing singer, amazing performer!! I pray he stays focused... he's a gifted winner for sure!!
