That must have been amazing!! He soothes my heart, but also makes me want to sing and dance at other times. Such a gifted and beautiful soul ✨♥️ Hope he makes it up to Canada this year 🙏🏼
That’s so awesome ♥️♥️♥️ Saw a snippet of him singing a really new original in Denver. The person was doing so many camera flips though so didn’t share it. lol Don’t know the name of it, but maybe you heard it. It’s gorgeous too!!
It's possible, but the show in Colorado Springs was acoustic, just Iam and his very talented drummer. His set was mostly the originals and covers I was already aware of. Slow Dancing really stuck out for me.
Right, I forgot about that. The full band was in Denver. Can’t believe he flew from practically sea level Nashville to you all, with only one or two days to adjust for elevation.
If you click on my community tab. The top post has the link to his performance in DC. The link goes to the White House youtube, and it’s a pretty long video. I noted his performance time marks on the post.
Enjoyed finally being able to listen, thanks for the track listening, really helpful. I would never have got the Journey track, sacrilege i know Kat! Hes the same guy thst turned up for his first audition, maybe a little mor confident .......... Love him so ❤
Love track listing too, so I can go back to certain songs.. ahem.. and also my cat would like a word with you about that 😹 Agree a gazillion times with your Iam description ♥️✨♥️
I love when he shares these live streams. It’s amazing how fantastic he sounds. He’s doing this in their dining room without even a mic.. just singing into his phone and his mom’s
❤ what's up Iam just want to give a shout out and let you know you still sounding awesome like they say practice makes perfect love the new sounds of your songs what's your dog's name I just wanted to let you know we're still listening and just wanted to tell you that we're sending lots of prayers and love your way to you and your whole family as usual and thank you for sharing and brightening our day love from Connecticut❤🙏🎙🎸🎶🎉💯❤
Loving that he and his mom continue to share these wonderful moments and home concerts with us ♥️ And as always, you share beautiful heartfelt words to Iam
@❤ I don't know there's just something about him maybe because I have three grown children of my own their dad passed away 1997 on St Patrick's Day what terminal stomach cancer and so I had to raise my three without anyone and I did my very best now they're out on their own and I have grandchildren I was a young Grandma at 38. I'm both my boys could play the drums and other kids will come over to with their instruments and they were in a band for a short time I could write a book music music is very therapeutic and IAm works so hard it makes me proud even though he doesn't know me I just love all kinds of kids I just want to wish him the best he has a wonderful family and wonderful friends❤🙏🌹❤
@@andrewcox5108 Never get tired of watching and listening to him sing. And the emotional pull is the same.. still cry with Monsters and dance and sing to his others ❤
@@KatHenderson. I know exactly what you mean it's so emotionally charged hits you everytime you hear like you have heard it for the first time still gets me tearing up because I think of my dad and I know what is coming but have to prepare but enjoy his company for now thank you Kat for texting me I thought you forgot me lol 😆 xox
I’m so sorry. Losing people you love feels so brutal whether it’s suddenly or slowly. Sadly we both know this. Sometimes youtube notifies me much, much later about comments, but I respond back when I can ♥️
So good to here you again! I listen to your journey on American Idol alot! I never get tired of listening to you! Hope you been doing well. I would love to see you in person sometime! 😊❤
♥️♥️♥️ can’t wait to catch his concerts either. He loves singing and interacting with the audience, and everyone says he sounds even more amazing live.
😂😂😂 this is just my personal channel and basically just my playlists, but it’s turned into the Iam Tongi show 🤣 guess kinda like what happened to idol last year. lol On instagram, always watch his stories. He reshares lots from others. Quite a few dups in it, but lots of really good shares of him singing in different places.
He also has a post of he and Colt Glover singing Sylivia’s Mother. Colt was from his season, but honestly don’t remember him. Iam hung around with lots of the country and also soul singers, and he remained friends with all of them. In his InstaStories he’s singing “Amanda” and sang that last year with Lukas Nelson, Willie’s son, and also Colin Stough. In the stories he’s wearing a very small cowboy hat 😅 and singing at Johnny Reid’s house or studio in Nashville? Not really sure, and couldn’t be now. He has concerts in Colorado and needs time to acclimate to the big sea level change
Always plenty of personality in your performances, I'm!.Anything you sing sounds 👍 good!!!, Because your good at just being yourself!!!, And it shines through ever so brilliantly in your performances!!!, I like 👍 the huskies in your voice, also!!!.😊
Love the magic and fire in his voice, but just like you said.. especially enjoy how he's always just himself and not letting anyone push him to be something he isn't ❤
Love when his mom and he share his live streams 😊 He tends to be on his instagram account more, but his youtube channel is www.youtube.com/@officialiamtongi
Don’t you love these livestreams his mom shares? ☺️ She also recorded his concert on Friday too. You should watch on his youtube ruclips.net/video/xopPs93mveo/видео.html
Wow these are original’s? Very nice bro… I play a little guitar but not good with the the finger picking. Love the style bro… mad respect. God Bless you and yours brother, from the Queen City of New York. Stay Blessed! Loved your Rivers of Babylon cover… I remember listening to the Sublime cover as a teen in the mid-late 90’s. Brad Nowell is the reason I play guitar, he’s got soul and you can hear when the music comes from a good place even if someone is struggling
He has a bunch more and cannot wait until he releases all his originals. He has enough for an album. He sang a mix of some of them at a recent concert. His mom filmed it from her phone, so it’s not one of his pro crew lol.. but love how much this fam shares with us. He uploaded it to his yt ruclips.net/video/xopPs93mveo/видео.html
IAM, YOU can now move back to your home with your Mom. You are so good! I listen to your tapes almost every day. I am a grandma and always liked your kind of music. Do I hear a dog?
It’s his dad’s dogs ❤️ He and his mom still live in Washington, but he’s writing and recording lots of new music.. can’t wait till he releases his album
Same here ♥️ It’s why I made this playlist of his music. I wanted one place to listen, cause there’s lots out there but scattered all over the place. lol His media links are in the description above though, so you can follow him on his accts.
He tunes his guitar differently. Oliver talks about it in this interview, at about the 5:40 mark. But the whole talk is great! ruclips.net/video/OR6QLPujJKs/видео.html
This guitarist did a reaction video of his performance with "guitar talk" ruclips.net/p/PLMtXTG8jggddaVGImELSmqRRj0pQHWTqx **He talks more about Iam's tuning, etc. on the vid called "Blown Away"
Also, Iam isn't playing his usual guitar here. It was being repaired. I don't think they were able to fix it, or maybe it's fragile now. He placed it beside him during two concerts last mth, but didn't play it. Now he doesn't have it onstage at all. I think he might have it in a safe place. It's the Boulder Creek parlor guitar his dad got him when he was 12 or 13. He's a great player, but you can hear the connection when he plays that one. ruclips.net/video/9rEERTF3EUE/видео.html
He had a lot last year and already this year. Think the closest to you was Ohio, but in Cincinnati. He’s adding more all the time so you might want to follow his website www.officialiamtongi.com/
No not my channel, just a fan like you. His lives are on his tiktok, but his mom captured these last two www.tiktok.com/@wtongi Don’t think he does Insta stories but you should follow it anyway instagram.com/wtongi
More than welcome and just want people to know where to follow him.. also that this isn’t his channel. Can’t believe how many are pretending to be him on tiktok and facebook too 🫠
Oh, I forgot to tell you, Iam. We are heading to Honululu on the 24th 25th of June, on our way to Longbeach CA. We only came back from USA, this month, after going to Hollywood, and seeing the Rolling Stones in Las Vegas. Now heading back to start my business. Then we return on the 6th and 7th of July as a return stopover back to your Hawaiian island. We saw BoneyM the other day in Thirroul, south of Sydney to get into the groove before we go. In kindred spirit, Eliza Most Beautiful Day is Today! 9th of June 2024 12:42pm Sydney Australia xx PS Just listenin' to your groove all morning, thanks Kat for posting these!
Very welcome! He's pretty much taken over my personal yt channel 😂He had a concert last week on Oahu. Next Hawaii concert is July 3rd on Kauai. Concerts July 5th & 6th Ventura and San Diego California. Has a concert June 29 in Alaska, so may be when you're in California? He's adding in concerts all the time though. Did you catch one of his concerts in Australia last year?
Oh, and my brother saw the Rolling Stones live too. He said Mick was running all over the stage and sounded great.. three 80 yr olds playing for 2.5 hours straight 🔥🔥🔥
@@KatHenderson. Thanks Kat, for writing all of Iam's concerts down. Yes, maybe Ventura! ...Only 1 hr from Hollywood by car, or 3 hr bus ride... ...Iam came to Australia? I didn't know, really I had no idea. Definitely wasn't advertised here in Sydney.
@@KatHenderson. Yes, so true. Mick Jagger was up and down the runway all night long. They was fantastic! Try their new chill Americana blues album, 2024 with Lady Gaga featured 10 years to produce, "Hackney Diamonds." I will warn you in advance, Kat, it is highly addictive! You might find yourself playing it non stop for 3 weeks.
@@michemmanSounds amazing, and I love Americana and blues too so will definitely check the album out. Thanks! I have so many more songs I need to add on here. I have thousands on my phone. lol
The drummer is still with him, he has two new guitarist, keyboard and more changes. Actually lots of changes and seems to be good. I’ll write a post in the community tab with the updates and links. Should be able to do that tomorrow ☺️
Iam's famous guitar is being repaired in Nashville.. so he's using 2 others
Oh dang!
@@bigdaddy6461Doesn't let it faze him 😅 and we get to listen to all these songs, including 4 new ones 🙌
@@KatHenderson. Indeed!! ❤️

Love it! Your voice is magical!
Such a magical and wonderful mix of emotions ♥️✨
I got to see him sing "Slow Dancing in the Parking Lot" last week and can't wait until he releases it.

Is that the one his dad gave him.
Yes, and why he probably wants to protect it now it’s unrepairable or maybe fragile.
I can understand him wanting to take care of it. It is very special to him.
