Pia Toscano performed Ike & Tina Turner's "River Deep, Mountain High" on the Top 9 night of American Idol Season 10 on April 6, 2011. Visit www.piaparadise.com for all the latest Pia Toscano news, information and performances.
Yeah.. filled with uniquely interesting characters. Yesterday, I watched a compilation video on all of Paul McDonald's performances. That's entertaining.
She sounds amazing as always but I love how she was so adamant about being a performer and yet she didn’t really do much anything but it doesn’t matter because she sings phenomenally
Which I think was the reason why Pia got eliminated. They asked for a performance in which Pia will command the stage, show her dance moves, since she's been singing ballads from week after week, and yet she's just walking from one place to another 😅
its really tough to do a cover of someone who is so special as Tina Turner was. No one will ever compare IMHO. This is really well done and beats the celine dion letterman version IMHO. Tinas Phil Specter version was unforgettable though.
Just Stunning.. You Keep Getting Better & Better.. Pia You Are World Class,I Love Seeing Where People Started... Best Wishe's From Martin in The Heart Of England 💖💖 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Pia Toscano estuvo este año en el festival de viña con Andrea Bocceli una voz increíble para una canción muy difícil...felicitaciones para ella...desde chile.
I was shocked that she was eliminated that quickly and that too after this performance. My favorite that season was Scotty who won, but Pia was on top on my list of favs too. Too bad the judges used their safe so early on Casey. She should have been the actual contestant they should have used their safe on.
Yeah agreed. I mean I loved Casey too because he was unique and he shouldn't have been in that bottom 3 in the first place even the judges was pissed. If he wasn't in the bottom they would have saved Pia for sure. Since he was in the bottom 3 that time I would have eliminated him just in case if Pia landed there. She should have been at least fourth place or third place as I loved Lauren and Haley as well.
At that time, I couldn't get her elimination. But now, when looking back at the top 9, I find the other contestants were uniquely interesting; some of them were really entertaining. Now I can enjoy Paul McDonald in addition to Casey Abrams. Maybe I will give Jacob Lusk's place to her, although I like his rendition of "Man In The Mirror" by Michael Jackson.
I don't remember this performance, because I didn't know the song then. Only after listening to Holie Cavanagh cover the same song at AI 2012, when I saw this link, I clicked. To me, it's a good cover.
We had all the Idol performance videos except this one uploaded back in 2012, but they were kept private because RU-vid was handing out copyright strikes at the time. Today we decided to make those vids public and we made a playlist of all her Idol performances, so we uploaded this video as well, for the sake of completion.
@@lexsoft3969 Hi mate! You're stalking Pia now. lol Pia will always be fav singing competition female vocalist! She has complete package! I wish Siobhan could get more recognition like Pia as well
@@merayahcarey9390 I forgot she covered this song at this round, the round when she got eliminated. Probably, because I didn't know this song then, unlike the Elton John's song she covered at previous round. Now, I got an idea. Seeing that Celine Dion had covered this song too, while Rimar is a fan of Celine, I want Rimar cover this upbeat song at Indo Idol's finale. Because, as far as I know, she had never sung an upbeat English song at that contest.
@@lexsoft3969 Yeah Pia sang Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me on previous round & she had suggestion from Randy to sing upbeat song for next round to prove that she's not only capable of singing ballad but also upbeat. Unfortunately she got voted off afterwards. Its a good idea if Rimar got a chance to sing english upbeat song like this one in finale. She can prove to anyone that she can sing upbeat while dancing around. It'd be interesting to see reaction from viewers & judges for that perfomance
Oh no...voted off? What happened?? I think this song has a bias attached to it. You know..."I don't think ANYONE can have the energy for this song like Tina does!" And it's true, I get exhausted just watching Tina perform, but Pia did so great! I think Tina would have loved it.
After the way the judges treated Siobahn Magnus and Pia Toscano, I stopped watching A.I. F that show. Bring back Rock Star.... Now THAT, was an awesome talent show!!
Ah, the Vampire`s interviewer was on one of the shows 🤔🙄😬🤩🥳! Strange, why does this show run on a channel that supports the Hellraiser who`s been voted out 😳?
Love her! But too cockey and too sure of herself... thats why she was Eliminated.. Thats also why she wont be a Major world wide star! Being a great singer isnt just enough... likability and vulnerability is just as important!😘
Clearly you don't know a damn thing about Pia. Cocky and sure of herself? She had stage fright every time she had to perform on Idol and struggled with self-esteem and shyness issues constantly. She was about the furthest from cocky that you can get.
Cocky was the wrong word, sometimes you’ll see her hands tremble holding the mic, although that might also be because she was holding it too tight, her emotions out of control. Her talent was just unrefined at that time, and she needed more training to control it. But she surely had the talent. But the Pia Toscano of today is like polished gold, a sparkling diamond.
Tina Turner? Let’s be real! Pia chose this song because she idolizes Celine Dion, not Tina! Celine’s version is much better and I’m sure that’s why Pia chose this!
