i get teary listening to this! just knowing that this guy has been on a hard arse road, hes shy and nervous, but when he gets on stage and opens his mouth hes amazing and such a good performer, and he knows what the ladies like! i really hope he goes far, his voice is just so amazing
i'm so exicted for Stan, about his big future and soooo glad he won. But i'm also a little sad that idol is over =( i won't be able to see him perform and shine on stage every week.
I love Australia and im a hearty maori , honestly stan walker is his own man his blood is maori, he will always nd forever be a maori nd come from aotearoa , if he was an aussie but borned in nz, aussie will claim him so yeah lol aussie dnt understand th actual gang nd violence tht goes on in aotearoa cuz thy dnt have to deal with it every day so yeah, LOVE YOU STAN AND YOU HEARTY WAYS AND DEFINATLEY YOUR GOD GIVEN VOICE P.S If he was australian he would'nt be able
So funny when you listen to Stan singing over and over, almost like you expect something different and I always feel it is as fresh as the last time I heard it!!!
did us alllll PROWD! Stan!! a most well desreved win for an awesum, TALENTED AND HUMBLE singer! u ARE GONNA MAKE IT big OUT THERE!! keep taking them big risks! they work with U.... Ur da bomb!
@hodc101 Bro get the facts, he was born in aus. Went back to nz, then back to oz. He had an opportunity and took advantange. Now the world has a chance to see STAN's talent! Thats what it's about man. STAN THE MAN
stan is the Man! You will be great, no matter what happens in Idol. Your voice,ُ؛؟ your attitude uplifts others around you. What a great person, Australian or Kiwi, who cares! Stan is the man! God Bless has trully blessed Stan the man!!
(lets stay together) and vote for stan the man...and he's already won as far as im concerned cause the people just love him..or more the girl and ladies..chur chur
I just love you singing this you have such a lot of great energy in this song. I would love to hear you sing the whole song. Thanks for sharing your wonderful talent with us all. God bless you young man, some of these comments .... these people don't know how to appreciate talent when they hear it. You go for it! What an exciting career you will have. Margs
Well done Stan. You sang that very good. Let's stay together. Actually you sing all the song's real good. Very good move's. I must say. Getting it on. Yeah baby.
Yup yup i agree - makes me proud to be maori too... Especially when we have someone like Stan representing hard!! Good luck - i have no doubt you'll out the comp! :)
Good voice, confident young man. R&B, Mowtown tpye songs are definately his niche. His " Pop" song doesn't do his voice justice at all. He has a great career ahead of him!
Man can remember many times at a party noise control takes the stereo then out comes the guitar and all my Maori boys start singing.......We sound good for being drunk too lol
Awesome Stan. By the way, he did not go flat in this performance. I'm a musician & have perfect pitch, & by my ears, he wasn't flat. He does approach the notes in a fairly relaxed way though, & his pitching wasn't exact in places. But that's how it is when you sing, it's not meant to be pitch perfect all the time. Also, blues, soul and jazz influenced singers have different approaches to how they hit notes. If they sound a bit 'off' sometimes by some standards, it's how it's meant to be :)
Omg!! First time seeing this video..awesome!! Amazing voice!!
What a Voice!!!
Everybody remember TO VOTE tonight
he'll sing Dear Mr president
Cheers :)
Many blessings to you Stan for using your God given talent for our appreciation and enjoyment.
Extraordinary

I love his voice! This is the best interpretation of the song. He has so much energy and feel passion for singing.
Hahaha! Look at the girls! They started screaming the moment he opened his mouth to sing!
What a great performer! All comes naturally to him. Wow!
We need a Stan channel!!
my favourite stan song, he is the man. makes me proud to be a kiwi
Stan Walker has a gifted voice n nothing you can do about it. I love his raw authentic voice no fake just beautiful powerful vocal.
A little bit of soul can never hurt. All the girls going crazy for you Stan = hero.
No one does it better ❤
Now this a great version of Let's Stay Together. I wish he would have recorded this so I can purchase it. He has amazing voice.
he has its on his first album
i'm so exicted for Stan, about his big future and soooo glad he won. But i'm also a little sad that idol is over =( i won't be able to see him perform and shine on stage every week.

P.S If he was australian he would'nt be able
he had the competition in the bag since the first audition
have to say he is the early favourite. Great voice, great personality and most importantly is very modest.

Stan Walker got me into listening to Al Green - i enjoy stans version better than the al's i must say!

Maori's takin the australian idol lol love it
It woulda been classic if he sung ; It only happens when i look at you !
Yay yah
Who cares where the fuck he's from this kid got talent!!! Much respect from Italy....
@hodc101 actually he was born in australia. he was born in melbourne.
I wonder what the 'troubled family issues' were that he was going through at the time. He's a real pro.
