Was that not good enough

[@smoothALOE]

혜정 승완 I actually thought his reply was perfect cause it was like he was not allowing Simon to beat him up too much, but I think he might not have realized it was a rhetorical question, either, haha!

[@joshuakahele3629]

김정은 동지 만세!!!!!

[@lawnzoz2033]

Poor guy. He seems like a genuinely nice guy. Just incredibly socially awkward. American Idol totally edited the video to amplify the cringe. Especially the part where he corrects himself about being from the Salt Lake City Area.

[@BLUDDYknucklez]

But he seems really intelligent.

[@PafMedic]

[@jannierummel7508]

Suse Smith Oh Well..Not My Issue...And Thats Judging,Some People Are Paid to Audition and Be Bad...

[@smoothALOE]

I think maybe he has Asperger Syndrome. However, I saw a separate video where he was just talking about his experience on AI and he didn’t seem nearly as awkward. So, nervousness and editing and all that stuff definitely played a factor. I’m sure he’s doing just fine. Probably better than most people from the show.

[@thomasway0320]

Boi, it’s a TV show.

[@sora2534]

Hey atleast he admitted that he scared himself after watching his audition lmaooo

[@PafMedic]

Snow White Seriously....Ive Never Seen a Video On That

[@nodnarb3540]

Oh my god why do *I* feel so embarrassed? And they just let him keep going!

[@somebody9633]

brandonisi i do that to. I wonder why that happens. It's like I get embarrassed for him.

[@rachelgarcia4301]

I thought the same thing. When they let h keep on, it led him to think he was doing well.

[@USAlien234]

His responses to being told they didn't like his voice 😢 He didn't argue, he just seemed like he was disappointed in himself at the bad news he was hearing, but not angry.
He just closed his eyes like "oh no 😖" everytime they insulted him.
I pray he is doing much better in life thou. He seems like a genuinely kind human being. He seems very innocent in nature.

[@slapeters2004]

maybe so.... but he's a kind, innocent human being that absolutely sucks at singing... maybe shouldn't do that again unless he's in the car (by himself).

Yes!

Plot twist: They all died listening to his singing!

[@leahvollmer610]

Lmao

[@kingnoah4828]

It just sounds like a funeral march

[@JennieRose8]

Finally, the original! I actually feel for this guy. He seems so nice…and his friends should have heard him sing before encouraging him to do this.

[@TheMochaGurlz]

when he hits the high notes it reminds me of spongebob :3

[@mattrix8529]

Right after I read this, he hit another high note and I shook my head.

[@theaverage9501]

5:46 why was that guy in the brown jacket trying to make him uncomfortable

[@mchevre]

Apparently Ryan Seacrest is a jerk. He totally did that only because he knew the guy was socially awkward and he thought he could make him come off even goofier by just staring. Seacrest is excellent at knowing what to say on the spot in any situation - that's why he had that hosting job, so I don't buy it that he was just naturally speechless that whole time.

[@ProJatior]

I honestly love this version. It brightens my day.

[@darthmase0971]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@apollo11capcom39]

He does come across as awkward, no doubt, but it's not all his fault. In the end Seacrest was just standing there staring at him, that would make anyone feel awkward. This guy handled it with class in the end, props for that, and for giving America a great AI classic clip.

[@BLUDDYknucklez]

Seacrest's interaction with him cracked me up. But yeah I bet Nick is a highly intelligent individual.

[@twelveytwelve]

It was a bit rude of that dude to just stand there and stare at him at 5:48. That'd make anyone feel uncomfortable.

[@user-mt9jx5ws7o]

Thank you! Right??

[@nacerdjaafri9919]

He should be and I hope he is. It's inhumane to treat a person like this based on one moment in his life. He honestly looks like a nice man and what people are doing in the comment section is plain bullying. If it was up to me, I'd remove this video forever, just unfair. What happened to humanity?

[@ShatnerLover]

I know these bad auditions are edited to make people looks worse, but this still remains my favorite bad one of all time. I was in high school when this was brand new and I never got sick of it

[@MystiqHorse]

unfortunate about the editing. sadly, he didn't know anything was wrong until Randy said "not even close." the judges do not react until the end or until they stop the contestant. the editors show the contestants in bad taste to make it seem worse than it was

[@PafMedic]

[@CKSKing]

where's the 10 hour version?

[@1cannedpeaches]

have you ever heard someone sing so off key that you didn't even recognize the song being sung

[@laurenj432]

I genuinely think he’s capable of being a good singer, he just had no breath support here (probably due to nerves) but he’s clearly not tone deaf. With a little more time with a vocal coach he could sound way better

[@Cookie82772]

Nah, he goes way out of tune all over the place. He needs to unlearn A LOT of bad habits and rebuild his technique from square 1. It’s not just breath support. Good news is he can afford quality lessons since he’s a software engineer

[@chocobitties2595]

There's a video of him singing in his studio. He has all of the same habits. I think he genuinely doesn't have a full register of hearing. That's the only way I can explain some of his singing. He doesn't know what singing sounds like to people with normal ears.

[@dakota7025]
