Carly is absolutely the best and most complete singer I have ever heard. The more I hear her the more I think, if you want to hear a song the way it should be sung and the way the composer intended it to be, GET CARLY!!!!!
this was one of carly's best performances on the show, i think. she is really a great performer, and is not only a powerhouse but can sing soft and beautifully too.
Carly Smithson only was given a chance to do ten performances on American Idol but she didn't squander a single one. She is a fantastic singer. I loved this, fun and focused.
I watched the Top 4 episode with a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame songbook performances from last night and none of them where anywhere close to this quality. Carly was the best thing on American Idol this year.
Completely agree with you cbotten106. Carly is phenomenal, stunning to look at and her voice is beautiful. America got it wrong. She is a superstar and I cannot wait for her to release an album. Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!
This woman's voice is a force of nature. To me, she's the only young contemporary singer who can rival Aguilera. I would buy her album in a minute. With that kind of talent, she deserves all the success in the world.
I love this performance. Carly Smithson is a really amazing singer. Check out the iTunes versions and her live on show stuff is so consistent. Don't want her to end up in bottom three AGAIN until Top3 night so vote everyone!
I love her her best performance ;; but i loved all of them!! she is so good best girl on american Idol By Faaarrr!!! so good best vocals.personality;;she is so prettyyy!!i love her eyes;; also her accent ohh OMFFFGG I LOVE CARLY!!!!♥♥♥
Before she started singing I said nobody other then the Beatles can sing one of their song , I was mistaken , she kills this song . love it. CaRlY RoCks
BEst Contestant on American Idol Everrr!!♥♥ So good cant wait to hear Her Performance Tonight counting the time till American Idol Starts!!so dam good!!:) and Shes So Pretty!! i luve her eyeeess:D;;sorry just had to say that:P:D ily Carly [ L ] ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
America Idol needs another pop superstar and Carly Smithson has the pipes and personality and drive to be that person. The rest of the cast is good in their own ways but Carly is the complete package.
I agree that Carly was the best on American Idol and although she was highly stressed, like everyone on that show is, she showed an great versatility over a large range of material. David Foster, who was commenting on the show for Access Hollywood, said Carly was clearly the best singer and judging the post-Idol response to her by the media a whole lot of people heard it that way. Being on Idol was a great opportunity for Carly Smithson and here's hoping she runs with it.
at first i was like oh boy wat are we in for now!how could anyone other than john lennon sing this! but when i heard it, i thought, wow, i was sooooo wrong that ws great
David Cook's pet name for Carly was Tater. He said on Idol Extra that it had something to do with the Irish Potato Famine, I guess associations like that are how you become a word nerd. lmao. This performance was stellar. Tater done good.
Carly is absolutely fantastic. The Idol producers shoved her under the bus, she was too good for this show, especially, with the current remaining cast.
As she said, she's gonna change it up a lil bit..from there u will probably get ur answer..since she only gets to perform her song in 1 1/2 mins..she probably chose some parts of the lyrics and fit it for her performance and it really paid off with randy saying it was a STELLAR performance!Such an amazing talent and her voice is incredible..As Simon always compared her to Kelly Clarkson, I really hope she wins this season just like Kelly did in Season 1.
she is such a good singer. she should actually win but there are other good american idols so i can not pick for who i want to win lol. they are all good
Actually, Paul McCartney had no say in letting them do the songs. If you're gonna hate anyone, hate Michael Jackson he's the one who owns the Beatles song catalog.
I'm a HUGE Beatles fan, and a lot of the performances both weeks disappointed me. I did love this one though! I think this and Syesha's version of "Yesterday" are my favorites. :-)
I am not so patriotic but i did cast a vote for this lady tonight. To the naysayers that she had a contract and a CD, for heavens sake the kid is a waitress and works she said 7 days a week in a pub - I know the immigrant story and believe it. A tiny bit because of aging putoff by the tattoo but no rpoblem with her lovely personality.
This was a timeless performance, check back in ten years and nobody on American Idol is going to do one to equal this gem.
Carly is absolutely the best and most complete singer I have ever heard. The more I hear her the more I think, if you want to hear a song the way it should be sung and the way the composer intended it to be, GET CARLY!!!!!
I totally agree, nobody on this show has EVER been this good.
this was one of carly's best performances on the show, i think. she is really a great performer, and is not only a powerhouse but can sing soft and beautifully too.
it's great to see her get more confident and unleash her vocal range. Definitely my vote for the next American Idol.
Carly Smithson only was given a chance to do ten performances on American Idol but she didn't squander a single one. She is a fantastic singer. I loved this, fun and focused.
Wow....mouth open and on the floor. She freaking ROCKED that song!
I watched the Top 4 episode with a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame songbook performances from last night and none of them where anywhere close to this quality. Carly was the best thing on American Idol this year.
I am so happy she sang this song! She does it so well! I am proud of her and hope to see an album from her soon!
Yep, Carly is awesome. So consistent, I can't wait for her CD. Idol did her a huge favor.
I LOOOOOOOOOVe the way she said "RANCH!" I love this girl!!
one of the best performances ever! awesome job.
She is soooo great and a LIVE presentation makes her shine. How does she walk in those shoes?(smile)

she was great! i wasn't expecting this from her, but this was an awesome version of this song!
loved her version of this song!!!
carly.. shes simply AMAZING!!!
She was, in my opinion, the greatest performer to ever be on the show. Shame the whole of America didn't think the same.
Thank you to Simon and the viewers for giving Carly her comeback tonight!

that was superbe...definately best song of American idol

I've been a Beatles fan for forty years and from my perspective this was awesome.
THIS GIRL CAN SING!!!!!!
carly rockz! i think she should have been in the top 3.
I love her!!!!!
She's MUCH more talented than any of the "david's" or anyone else on this show. She'll be just fine....can't wait for her album!
Carly was a star that outshone the chosen ones, that is always a precarious position for an artist to be in.
Before she started singing I said nobody other then the Beatles can sing one of their song , I was mistaken , she kills this song . love it.
CaRlY RoCks
Great voice and personality, I caught her on the syndicated Fox morning show and Carly is even more personable in post Idol interviews.
luv this song
i could not agree more !
Carly looks absolutely gorgeous in her tape (that little interview thingy before the performance, but after the whole thing with Ryan)
Thanks for the link. I'll check it out.

*drools* love her accent
Carly is a real performer. She kicks tail.
at first i was like oh boy wat are we in for now!how could anyone other than john lennon sing this! but when i heard it, i thought, wow, i was sooooo wrong that ws great
I know, Finally a good singer!
You, too. This has been fun.
David Cook's pet name for Carly was Tater. He said on Idol Extra that it had something to do with the Irish Potato Famine, I guess associations like that are how you become a word nerd. lmao.
This performance was stellar.
Tater done good.
I think I'm in love with this girl...lol
ME TOO!!
i've always liked her and michael johns:)...those two were my faves during AI7....sadly they didn't make it to even top 3:(
That is actually a pretty good list.
i usually don't like her singing - but this was entertaining for sure
It was such a shame that she didn't make it farther... she is so talented.
i was just kidding, i can notice that he just adores her, but asks her a lot during the week so she gets better... and its working!!!
ME TOO!!! :(
good perfomence
Carly is absolutely fantastic. The Idol producers shoved her under the bus, she was too good for this show, especially, with the current remaining cast.
she is soooo gooooooooooooooooooooooooood. she is definitely in my top 3 along with the two davids. why did she have to go???
brava!!
Thanks ... I guess you can tell i am not a regular watcher ;)
As she said, she's gonna change it up a lil bit..from there u will probably get ur answer..since she only gets to perform her song in 1 1/2 mins..she probably chose some parts of the lyrics and fit it for her performance and it really paid off with randy saying it was a STELLAR performance!Such an amazing talent and her voice is incredible..As Simon always compared her to Kelly Clarkson, I really hope she wins this season just like Kelly did in Season 1.
i cant disagree with you. You are absolutely right
she is such a good singer. she should actually win but there are other good american idols so i can not pick for who i want to win lol. they are all good
pretty good
AHAHAH she got a wink from Simon!!!
Actually, Paul McCartney had no say in letting them do the songs. If you're gonna hate anyone, hate Michael Jackson he's the one who owns the Beatles song catalog.
I'm a HUGE Beatles fan, and a lot of the performances both weeks disappointed me. I did love this one though! I think this and Syesha's version of "Yesterday" are my favorites. :-)
She did "Alone" at Hollywood Week."
You can't look at the performance from a Beetles' fan perspective, you have to look at the performance as a whole.
Damn american idol's tough this year...
i'm really sad she's gone :(
THE BEATLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am not so patriotic but i did cast a vote for this lady tonight. To the naysayers that she had a contract and a CD, for heavens sake the kid is a waitress and works she said 7 days a week in a pub - I know the immigrant story and believe it.

She sounds like the woman who did Janes voice from the cartoon movie Tarzan when she speaks. Lol
lmao has anyone noticed he kinda mimics her voice?....
at the begining when he says "careful" it makes me laugh
