I always thought of Carly as one of the very best vocalists to ever appear on American Idol. Definitely an outstanding. professional voice. I remember this particular performance after all these years. She should be at the top of the very best female vocalists ever.
She deserves more recognition 💜
One of my favourite American Idol performances of all time.
Carly's voice is absolutely beautiful!!! How did she not win American Idol??? I think she is one of the best singers ever, and I'd love to hear more from her.
David×David...🙄
I loved it in 2008 and couldn't stop singing it afterwards! I renewed its magic again in 2023 - the most dire, frightening, and hate-filled year of my life! Ms. Rae Smithson performance helped me pull pathos, hope and inspiration from a Beetle's song that I never even knew! I am belting in awe of America and I am a blackbird. My accent still beguiles me but I'm learning to fly! And YOU Ms. Smithson... good on you for standing up for yourself at the end...Thank you lady for singing!🎉
I absolutely love how she sings this song. Her voice is so rich and beautiful. I can't believe she didn't win it all.
This my favorite version of this song. Thank you miss
literally been looking for this cover for 10 years
Carly did a great job with the song. Beautiful voice and control.
I still think about this version of this song and seek it out to watch every now and then. It looks like she is no longer doing music? Whatttt????
I thought this was her best performance on Idol. I hope she has a CD soon - I'd like to hear some bluesy stuff from her - she has the right tone to her voice for that sort of music .
This is the best arragement I have ever heard of this song. The strings are so beautiful and Carly had one of the best vocal performances in AI history.
This was the girl-hating season, so I'm not surprised that even the best vocalists that were female got the shaft.
I so agree . they didn't want her to win. Carly is amazing . I believe they felt male winners equal more money. ridiclouds
I actually prefer this version to the Beatles version. I'm not sure why - but I do. I think it was beautiful, and this has been one of my favorite Idol performances of all time.
I agree Jan. The funny thing is that Daniel Archuleta said that he couldn't stop listening to her rendition of this when they were all on Larry King Live.
So the season runner up recognized how magnificent she sounded singing this.
I always liked her voice, its the kind of unique voice you can never easily find
I really like Carly, awesome voice!
i love her eyes..amazing,,
She's great!!!
LOVE THE ACCENT
so wonderfull!
GO BEATLES they inspire people really they do
how could she not of won Hmmmm
Simon had a terrible look on Carly for some reason? The girl has a fantastic voice, she really does. And for me...she's beautifull
Matthew S yes he is just being stupid. He wants carly to singing like a diva, but carly is not a diva thing, she is a rock star..
the best!
To call her fake it really wrong, If you dont like her say so, but fake she is not, she was not even my favorite but credit where credit is due, that girl has some pipes!
my fave that season, sadly she lost
Whoever thinks this is better than the original is on something....this is NOT a song you belt. this is a song you feel and connect with....does she even know what she is singing about? (fyi, it was written about the 1960's civil rights movement)
I am with you Caitylin190. Both Carly and Michael Johns went out to early IMHO.
'cos she is not an american....
she did really great version to Blackbird, brilliant performance :-)
What happened to her and her band
She messed the first verse up! *take THESE BROKEN WINGS*
3:45 - 3:47.... I'm blushing... I fkin luv her accent... reminds me of gerard butler
@dramababe3474 YEAH, They needed 2 singers to beat Carly
CARLY WINS!!!!
Not at all, it's a singing contest after all...but just for your info. all the season she mention she recived her visa to u.s , and last season she got kicked 'cos her greencard was expired in the middle of the auditions ... this had a great influence on her voting. that's why she didn't won- and I'm a big fan of Carly , but everyone knew she had little chance to win
I
@xplodRegenerate well... it DOES contain 3 members of the ORIGINAL evanescence lineup :P so of course it's going to b like ev... The band members who actually did a lot of the good writing on Fallen are in it, soo... lol
she's no amy lee, but i definitely dig We Are The Fallen
@nflcollector1 mb coz a bit low range. btw it!s great song
American Idol was a launching point for her. But I do have to agree that It would have been great if she didn't sound so much like Amy Lee. But she has awesome vocals thats for sure.. :)
I wanted to hear this song and I wanted to hear Carly sing it. simon is just jealous that he could never sing this song with so much heart and talent.....
Beautiful. She should have been sitting and wearing something black and feathery. Her voice tightened during higher notes- needs to stay open.
@dramababe3474 I looked her version up after watching them..not even close.
It just didn't connect as much
@Axellelieftina I didn't say that she can't help her voice. but it is very strange in how she tries really hard to sound like her. And I wasn't saying anything about her voice, its how she portrays herself in her songs. They are very much a copy with different words on them. She has amazing talent or she wouldn't be where she is today. I just wish she was more her and not what the band she is in is trying to be.
Wow I couldn't believe it when she got voted off! I really thought that she would've been at least in the top 3. I mean Shyesa or whatever can't sing as half as good as Carly. I wanted Caly to win. But she got voted off early. Sge's got great vocals.
is it just me, or does simon NOT like songs about birds?
like, DC's little sparrow,
this,
and megan's rocking robin.
i must say though, i hated the rocking robin.
but this was brilliant
Such a sexy voice, both speaking and singing!
I loved this performance. Simon has such a WEIRD take on things sometimes. Pssssh.
I usually agreed with Simon for the most part, but he clearly was on crack when evaluating this performance. How was the song choice "indulgent?" Her explanation for choosing the song was the perfect riposte to his lame remark. Regardless, she did a lovely job with the song: emotionally connected; controlled but relaxed.
how the hell was she in the bottom three for this performance.
Scary eyes, beautiful voice.
Reminds me of Kree Harrison, the runner-up of season 12
@caitylin190 it's okay... with her new band We Are The Fallen she'll have a MUCH bigger career than whoever did win....lol
@caitylin190 she was good, but David cook was great.
I love Chris Colfer's version on glee so much better
Who gives a shit, she is in We Are the Fallen now
She was too good for this show
Nice but, here's another way to go with the song.... Search "Beatles blackbird on steroids" for a ROCKIN' version and I might say a spiffy video to boot.
she's WAAAAAY better than kelly clarkson.. i like kelly,but carly is better
i like it better with the guitar and when cameron did it on the glee project
Oh Simon, get over yourself! lol!
no
I still don't understand...
Why. The. Fuck. Didn't. She. Win.
It's blasphemy...
good but not as good as come together
what crack is Simon smoking? :S
its not that shes a bad singer shes actaully very great but for her type of voice this is not the song for herd. IMO this song requires a much softer voice.
The only real problem i have with this song is that they used a piano instead of a guitar. Pual Mccartneys guitar work was earth shattering for my music world but by changing it, they kind of runed the song
I know! The minimum she should've had was second place, but noooo, it was David Archuleta *rolls eyes*
She sounds like Sinead O'COnnor.
She Is a Great Singer But For Me i Just Dont Like It Sorry America :/
Simon is the worst Judge ever
