Lukas did of course his own version u might say, and it was cool. But Magni hit all the notes, and when the high pitch came he did it way better than even Thom Yorke did, and that´s no lie!
david cook is amazing on this song. He rocked it out a bit from the original, but I like the tone of his lower register. This guy is pretty good too but he clips the words sometimes.
true, i sometimes think it would be a greater price to start a band with the guys in the houseband than with a few oldschoolers that honestly arent as good as the houseband.
Was this his last song after he lost and before he was off the show? seems like a song that you would want to play last to have people feeling sorry as shit. I feel so guilty that I loved this cover, THE EMOTION, the fucking stage presence, its amazing to have that when it isnt even your damn song!
Magni's still playing and performing lots in Iceland and occasionally some shows in North America as well, he ROCKED a couple of shows in Toronto a few weeks back that were really fun too, click me for tons of video from the two shows.
You mean Magni's stuff? I could probably give you a few youtube links for his songs :) don't know if you can listen to them but I think so. But to warn you, most of his songs are in Icelandic, since he is from Iceland :) and yeah I know haha I am 6 years late to answer this xD
Idol is a fucking joke, a disgrace to all genuine musiclovers out there and Magni sure as hell proves that REAL singers wouldnt set foot on an idol-stage, hope he'll have a longlasting and awesome carreer, he deserves it.
It's sorry that non of you mentioned Radiohead's Genius for having made this song for all who do not comprehend their music. Now I understand why Thom decided to stop performing this song live. At least watch it being performed well (Radiohead - Creep Live (Astoria))
Obviously a million times better than Lukas, without having to resort to weird body contortions. Come on! He did the last part of his performance sitting down on the floor and it still was a million times better than Lukas. Go Iceman!
Still my favorite cover of this song fifteen years later
This may possibly be my favorite video on all of RUclips
Magni var lang bestur í Super Nova hann átti að vinna ,en hann var bara frá litla Íslandi
Magni was my favorite from day one until the last day ... what an amazingly talented singer/performer
I miss Rockstar a lot. It was like a concert for the entire summer! Great singers that I follow to this day! Marty, MiG, Jordis, Magni, Ryan.
He had the best voice in that season
To me this guy should've won, So many emotion in his vocals!!!
i used to love this show!! make another puh-lease! and Magni was by far my fave!
magni ! he is from Iceland i’m from Iceland too
I liked his covers he did of I alone and Dolphins cry. Those are two songs that are really hard to sing and he sung perfectly. Mad props to Magni.
ya they need to do another show like this with a kickass house band like this.
@KillerLikesKandy even more amazing when you consider that 6 months before the show Magni didn't speak a bit of English.
maaaan do i have the chills now!!! :)))))
AHHH I'M SO PROUD OF YOU MAGNIII!
u said it! no one can do it better than the original.
Lukas did of course his own version u might say, and it was cool.
But Magni hit all the notes, and when the high pitch came he did it way better than even Thom Yorke did, and that´s no lie!
he is one hot guy and on top of that he can sing oh my
It wasn't his best, but it was still damn good. The high note gave me chills
i'm from iceland and i like this song!
The ONE that should've won!!
They picked the wrong one.....
Better than the original!
my god this man can sing.
amo a este hombre!
i mean where in the Hills did he get all that air to shout like that...just...wow. i am extremely amazed.
I wish he won luv him!!
magni es genial...tiene una voz increible...el deberia haver ganado...creep`le sale muy bien...
@cquake05 considering he was sick when he's was singing there, uh he beat the crap out of Lukas' version
Goosebumps....
AMAZING!!
david cook is amazing on this song. He rocked it out a bit from the original, but I like the tone of his lower register. This guy is pretty good too but he clips the words sometimes.
Love love love!
i love how at the end he's lik "eh..." and shrugs it off. he knows he's sitting back down...
@volcanicvikingo satt! :D alltaf gaman að fara a ball með Magna ;))
totally agree...rough at the beginning with some off lyrics but magni has some pipes! Holy shit he surprised me with that run at the end.
I miss that
he is me godfahter!!!
i love this song
This is awesome! I can't decide whose version is better, lukas or magni?
Wow MAGNI YOU ARE THE BEST MEN XD
I really liked Magni and Toby the best!!!!!
Magni's was definately better than Lukas' his voice just has that much more power, he can actually sing and doesnt full out yell.
true, i sometimes think it would be a greater price to start a band with the guys in the houseband than with a few oldschoolers that honestly arent as good as the houseband.
really like this song and so magni!!...cant stop playing this fuckin song!!...

yeah , good times
he was sending off a different message..like he didn't belong in the bottom three hahaha!!!
how was this 17 years ago?
he is with us Icelandic people! lol
I cried during this
I cried in 2006!!! 😭😭😭
where can we get this on I tunes, groundbreaking
wow!
Magni's still playing and performing lots in Iceland and occasionally some shows in North America as well, he ROCKED a couple of shows in Toronto a few weeks back that were really fun too, click me for tons of video from the two shows.
He says it him self ,, he's a band guy
I have searched for his stuff here in the U.S. can't find it.

Já
:D
so fuckin great

what do you mean?
@KillerLikesKandy its because hes icelandic
i tough it was better then the original
lot better than moby's version.
What do you mean by fake?
thats my uncle
Obviously a million times better than Lukas, without having to resort to weird body contortions. Come on! He did the last part of his performance sitting down on the floor and it still was a million times better than Lukas. Go Iceman!
please say sorry to all rh fans for this unforgivable sin.
so much better than lukas rossi's version!!! mgni rokt! he shoulda gotten furter than he did
thos version is much better than that rossi dude.
@staballemo only cuz he´s from iceland ;)
why didnt this guy win??????
Not the best, not the worst. The guitar in the beginning sounded more off than the guy's voice IMO
dude, did this guy sing all the songs off of rockband? hahaha
rockstar beat the crap out of american idol.
then why are you answering...
this was pretty good but i dont think the backing band went heavy enough in the chorus at all!
Creep solos: Magni>Lukas>Dilana
rogues69 Totally! Those 3 killed it.
@89801wink amazon...
Aye..too bad you cant spell his name right. Magni Owns.
not sayin much eh? :P
No one ever gets the fuckin' point when they cover this song...
Yea! I think Marty Casey did it way better than Magni or Lukas...
you wish
This no way even remotely was close to Lucas's version.
cquake05 Magni was good but not out there enough... Lukas hit the notes & the moves & he OWNED IT!
lukas gave a way better performance but magni definatly hits those notes better than lukas
lukas can't sing this guy can!!!!
i have to agree...he does suck..lukas did a way better job
yeah, I've heard better.
He can't really hit the big notes like Lukas or Dilana could
You def ?
Magni is a horrible singer. I'm better
