As Carrie said, when you are on Idol, you are a nobody. Meaning nobody knows who you are. Before Idol, nobody heard of Carrie. Main reason, Carrie won, is her powerful voice. Remember Carrie got everybody attention with her vocals.
I love everything about this kid, She's the best female country artist I've ever seen 😍 and I'm 71 years old. I'm so proud of this sweet little human being, Thanks Carrie 😊 💓
I remember her personal footage on Idol talking about milking cows and helping on the farm .. she had been in talent contests since age 14 and NEVER won, gave up & pursued journalism in college then just happened to see the auditions would be in St. Louis - hometown population? 3500 yep 2 zeros one stop light. Can you imagine how scared she was? we are talking EVERYTHING changing. Her parents raised her with good values it was her turn and I am immensely proud of the woman she became
You can see the progression week to week and her becoming a star right before our very eyes. She was born to shine. I called it the day she first auditioned and voted for her every week. Something that I’ve never done or will do even in my life again. Lol Still a fan 15 years later. Just saw her at her Cry Pretty tour
I called it like you from her first audition,I walked into my living room and told my aunt I just saw the winner of American idol her name is Carrie Underwood ! Like you I voted for her every week ! I got to see her at our State fair she was fantastic ! She could sing the phone book it would be a hit !
I think Carrie is the best singer to come from Idol and she's definitely the most successful. Simon predicted she would sell more records than any other Idol and she has done that by selling 4 million more records than her nearest competitor, Kelly Clarkson. Hers and Vince Gill's rendition of How Great Thou Art brings me to tears every time I hear it! Keep up the great work Carrie!
Both Carrie and current Idol judges both said. Winning Idol means nothing in the music business. All it does, is open the door. It is up to the individual to take care of the rest. As Luke Bryan said, music business isn't going to call any contestant winner. You get a contract to one album as winner, but it is up to them to use it to get there career going. The main reason, Carrie has done so well. Carrie is just that good.
Carrie Underwood NEVER had a bad performance! She was always consistent and sang different genres, she could do it all, country. pop, Christian, rock. To sing that powerfully at that range is a gift!
I saw Carrie in concert last Thursday and she was PHENOMENAL! I wish her nothing but the best. she is talented, adorable, humble, and wholesome - a great role model for today's young people.
I have sweet memories of my mom and I first seeing Carrie perform. My mom who is now in heaven said Carrie is going to win and i agreed. Voted every week for her. So happy for her successful life. She is so beautiful and super talented yet has remained sweet and humble. 🥰
This woman has an extra pair of lungs.. She holds those notes to insane counts. I used to perform, and I have a fairly strong decent voice.. NOTHING to this caliber.. But, even doing good breathing etc, she still beats the hell out it!
I had the same thought. When listening to her performance of ‘How Great Thou Art’, she held notes for insane lengths of time. I up your count to three sets of lungs.
I still get chills watching Carrie on Idol all over again. She has such an awesome amazing voice. Love her. Been a fan from day 1 on Idol. Would love to meet her.
she has taken country music to another level. i have friends who never liked country music...yet they listen to her. regardless of genre...her voice is fantastic!!!
by far the best american idol winner i think =] going to be seeing her in February for her blown away concert!!! i love u Carrie!!! thumbs up if u love her and are watching this in 2013
After one of these performances when it came time for the judges to give their critique, Simon Cowell said something to this effect. "I'm going to go out on a limb and make this prediction. I predict that you are going to go on to win this whole thing and sell more records than any other American Idol." Well, guess what?
I've got chills running up my spine watching that. She has grown so much and become better than she probably ever thought she could be. She has given so much back to the world with a voice like that.
By far - and without comparison - the MOST AMAZING performer to have come from American Idol. What a superb, classy, talented, professional, and beautiful singer she is. We love you Carrie Underwood ... F O R E V E R.
What an excellent season of AI this must have been. Both Carrie & Bo gave amazing performances throughout, representing two different sides of southern music. Must have been a joy to watch each week. Congrats to Carrie for all her well-deserved success.
I had forgotten just how much I enjoyed that season and watching her perform each week. All of her performances were powerful, no matter what the song was.
Its hard to believe that over 5 years have elapsed since Carrie won American Idol. Carrie's career exploded into being as the true extent of her talents surpassed even those that Simon had predicted. Her voice has tremendous range and power and the versatility to sing anything she chooses. What a gift we've all been given. May you sing for years to come Carrie. We love you. Thanks... :-)
thank you Carrie for being on Idol. .I've yet to see you perform live, but one day. ..what a talent. As a mother I can relate to your mom. .such joy she must've felt at your audition. I'll be a fan forever 😊
I've been a fan from the first audition. Great mix--so much fun to watch her confidence grow with each performance. Love you Carrie--keep up the great work!!!
This woman brings tears to my eyes. There is nothing like natural talent. She showed she was something special from the moment she stepped on stage. She is a phenom !!!
Best thing is, she was vocally good on that show already, but man she has gotten even better over the years! Also, just got to point out .. it's not only about Carrie, but when some random anonymous people say that artists on that level can't sing... come on :D You really think she would be THAT successful and would have won as many awards as she has if she couldn't sing? And there you are, there are still people who think that their opinion is the right one and the world is wrong.
I have to admit, I never listened to Carrie Underwood. I am not into country or American Idol, but when I came across this, I took a chance and listened and watched and this girl is amazing! She was able to pull off anything that was given to her to sing. Granted she cant sing and dance at the same time..LOL. But she is a great singer.
Its amazing to see how far she has come since her days on idol! She is an incredible woman of God and I am so proud to call myself a fan! Love you Carrie
I had NO IDEA who Carrie Underwood even WAS just three weeks ago! Now I consider myself the luckiest man in the world to know her now. She is TRULY a blessing to us all!
I have seen her in concert 2 times,a nd each time she blew me and the whole addiance away! She gives me chills when s he sings. You can see and hear the true emtion she puts into every word in every song!
Carrie is my favorite singer and I am her biggest BIGGEST fan,I don't mean to take anybody elses spot if you love Carrie as much as I do but,I LOVE this girl and I love how she sings "Take another piece of my heart" and "Because you love me". (: She is AMAZING! Nobody can top this beautiful,wholesome woman!
She and Kelly along with Adam are the 3 best Idol produced. Carrie is a true superstar with 25 #1 hits on country radio in 10 short years. Amazing talent
I remember watching her audition and saying to my beloved Mom that Carrie was gonna win and be a superstar. Now Mom is gone and Carrie is indeed a major star!
I dont care about what the judges said at that moment, but one of my favorites Carrie performances on AI was Love Is a Battlefield. Loved the arrangement, loved the energy, loved how she looked and loved how she sang it.
Carrie is definitely my favorite artist !!! I love her country/pop style, and her voice is just amazing!!! Looking forward to her next album already, cause I know it's gonna be awesome! ^^
This girl truly deserves everything that has come to her. She not only has a beautiful voice, but she's a beautiful person. I hope she has stayed true to her origins.
The second repeat of "Til Now, I always got by on my own".... Up until that point she had never fully let go. On that verse she did....and blew me away.... It was then I knew she was gonna be a star.
I can tell when someone is going to win when they inspire me to download the songs they are singing and/or listen to the original artist's rendition of the song and/or make me fall in love with the song. Carrie Underwood holds the record for the most songs I've downloaded because she sang/introduced the song to me. Especially when it's not a genre I regularly listen to. And I quite like how she made the version her own and often love her version better than the original.
Wow this was very well put together! And I agree i don't like the hair in alone but it is probably one of the best performances in all of American Idol. And her hip sways are a trademark! I saw her in concert and she did it about like 541 times haha! But she is great live and i recommend everyone to see her. her voice is amazing! I love carrie!
Ahh Carrie... so good. I remember I picked her to win from the audition and voted for her throughout. I remember one time I went to see a movie and left early just so I could go home and vote for her lol.
Its amazing what the vocal coaches did with her throughout the show. Go from her first rendition of Independence Day (2:42) to her second rendition (8:52). She doesn't only have raw talent, she has taken the time to hone her skill. That is what makes her a great performer.
Its amazing how someone that good, could possibly get any better, but she is. She has an even stronger voice now, then she did 5 years ago. I am not a huge fan of her music, but i am amazing every time i see her sing. It's incredible. She probably has the best voice in any type of music right now.
OMG I bet Carrie is looking back at all this footage & saying " It sure has been a BLESSED rise." She commented on the ACM's that she owed it all to Idol & Simon. She is totally awesome & truely has been BLESSED with the gift of voice. You go girl
She's copied a lot of these songs right down to the inflections, growls and more... and what a set of pipes! Had no idea she had such a powerhouse voice! Really enjoyed seeing her stage presence and hairdos improve too!
Carrie Underwood is one of my idols. She is so amazing and has one of the best voices I've ever heard:) love you Carrie! And another plus is she loves God:)
Carrie is one of the greatest vocalists I have ever heard. Her singing is...effortless. God given. Just beautiful. Glad it is being shared with the world.
i remember so many of these moments! i remember she sang heart and that was a moment ill never forget it. but when she sang if you dont know me, another contestant, anothony, sang that song the same night also. that was risky of her! she was amazinggggggggggg i loved this season! thank youfor this video i favorited it!
The crazy thing is over the year naturally artist's voices mature and as they get older they can't hit notes like they used to. and while that's true for carrie to a certain extent, she sounds even better today always in tune and hitting every note even if it's a bot harder, she sounds amazing.
Carrie is very good...she sings from her soul...she has a strong, powerful voice...she feels her songs as she sings them..thats what its all about. Fantastic..
This girl is the best there is, the best Idol winner in the last 7 seasons. I love her, everything about her. There is a reason she was never in the bottom group, and then won the whole shebang, she's wonderful. Carrie Underwood is my favorite female singer, and I am proud to say that :D
Here she is singing other people’s songs, now years later, people are singing hers for auditions! By far my favorite women country singer.
I'm only one who recorded the songs.
As Carrie said, when you are on Idol, you are a nobody. Meaning nobody knows who you are. Before Idol, nobody heard of Carrie. Main reason, Carrie won, is her powerful voice. Remember Carrie got everybody attention with her vocals.
Me too. LOVE HER PASSION IN ALL SHE SINGS. God has truly blessed her and all of us that are blessed by her songs
I love everything about this kid, She's the best female country artist I've ever seen 😍 and I'm 71 years old. I'm so proud of this sweet little human being, Thanks Carrie 😊 💓
She sings rock tooooo

I grew up in a farm next to a town with about 300 people... That seems kinda huge to me 😅
She grew up in Checotah Oklahoma. That's where she was from. NOT St Louis.

Something that I’ve never done or will do even in my life again. Lol Still a fan 15 years later. Just saw her at her Cry Pretty tour
I'm getting so emotional reading your comment because I lived through this 😍😍 and I will ALWAYS adore Carrie. She is timeless to me 💖

I got to see her at our State fair she was fantastic ! She could sing the phone book it would be a hit !
Me too. I love her 😍 so much!
Carrie puts her heart and soul into her songs! Keep up the good work, Carrie. We love your songs. Thank you.
Best two Idols ever? Carrie & Kelly ❤️
Never that...
And Gabby Barrett!!!!
ALSO CHRIS DAUGHTRY LOVE HIM HE SHOULD OF WON STILL CAME OUT ON TOP
Best Idol ever is Carrie. Carrie leaves Kelly in the dust.
Fantasia
You can see how she progressively gets more and more comfortable on stage and know how to own it
That's so true. And as she did she went at it like.It was ment to be ! And that was also true ! 🎶🎶❤💯🌠
When she softens her voice a little, it's easier on my ears. Carrie's voice is really strong!
I think Carrie is the best singer to come from Idol and she's definitely the most successful. Simon predicted she would sell more records than any other Idol and she has done that by selling 4 million more records than her nearest competitor, Kelly Clarkson. Hers and Vince Gill's rendition of How Great Thou Art brings me to tears every time I hear it! Keep up the great work Carrie!
Simon said Carrie even exceed his expectations. Simon was shocked by her explosion when "Some Hearts shot to no. 1.
Back when Idol was worth watching and the winners became idols.
dsflixfan1 basically. honestly. i didn’t even know half these people got famous because of american idol cause they stood out so much on their own!
Except they were way wrong on Jennifer Hudson!
I think Carrie won by such a landslide. Idol just open the door for Carrie took it the rest of the way.
Both Carrie and current Idol judges both said. Winning Idol means nothing in the music business. All it does, is open the door. It is up to the individual to take care of the rest. As Luke Bryan said, music business isn't going to call any contestant winner. You get a contract to one album as winner, but it is up to them to use it to get there career going. The main reason, Carrie has done so well. Carrie is just that good.
The only 2 lasting stars were her and kelly
She’s only gotten better with age: better vocal control, better outfits, better stylists lol she’s so flipping naturally talented though. She’s earned her success 👍
Sure..they got her costume..hair dresser..make up artist n so on😁🥰😍
We are supposed to get better with age😉
That's a fact.
man she nailed love is a battlefield ...... she is amazing... BEST American Idol winner EVER.
Carrie Underwood NEVER had a bad performance! She was always consistent and sang different genres, she could do it all, country. pop, Christian, rock. To sing that powerfully at that range is a gift!
She is a natural beauty gift from the almighty 🙃🙂💜may God bless your journey!✌👐👍! Sing girl!!
She will always be the all American girl... love her soul
I saw Carrie in concert last Thursday and she was PHENOMENAL! I wish her nothing but the best. she is talented, adorable, humble, and wholesome - a great role model for today's young people.
Lucky you!!!! I was hoping she would come to Anaheim this year but only see Vegas
I have sweet memories of my mom and I first seeing Carrie perform. My mom who is now in heaven said Carrie is going to win and i agreed. Voted every week for her. So happy for her successful life. She is so beautiful and super talented yet has remained sweet and humble. 🥰
After she sang Alone, I was positive she was the winner. She was my favorite from the start that season
The producers said that Carrie topped the poll every single week! Wow!
Topped the voting by quite a lot of votes! Whoever was second all those weeks was a distant second.
I was a young teenager when this season aired and I knew every week Carrie was winning! She was amazing!
@@marjoriemorris5849I think it was Bo Bice !!
Carrie is just incredible! Her voice is a gift from God! Thank you for putting together this beautiful collection of Carrie's performances!
This woman has an extra pair of lungs.. She holds those notes to insane counts. I used to perform, and I have a fairly strong decent voice.. NOTHING to this caliber.. But, even doing good breathing etc, she still beats the hell out it!
Bc Carrie is a man. Sad there are no real women role models on this satanic earth!

Fantastic versatile voice
Once she sang "Alone" it was over
Johnny Utah heck yea my fave
Just
I love that song!
No kidding
Johnny Utah may 2019
Carrie is the only Idol I ever voted for!!! She just gets better all the time!!!!!
I didn't like her singing as a kid, but now that I've grown to like country music, she became my favorite idol winner ever ❤
I still get chills watching Carrie on Idol all over again. She has such an awesome amazing voice. Love her. Been a fan from day 1 on Idol. Would love to meet her.
she has taken country music to another level. i have friends who never liked country music...yet they listen to her. regardless of genre...her voice is fantastic!!!

by far the best american idol winner i think =] going to be seeing her in February for her blown away concert!!! i love u Carrie!!! thumbs up if u love her and are watching this in 2013
Carrie is the best American Idol winner of all time in my opinion.
I second that !!
She was awesome then but believe it or not shes a million times better now. Saw her live in concert this week and her voice is perfect.
I voted for her over and over. My most favorite singer of all times on American idol and now one of my all time favorite country singers

her every song every performance make me love her more than her American Idol's days

Just a real raw talent then and still is. I never have to guess who's singing on the radio - her voice just always stands out.

It's amazing how much she changed! i love Independence Day, and God Bless the Broken Road covers the best!
Always had class and still is. Fame never changed her, few can say that.

ALL of these rock songs are so good it’s almost like her voice was made for rock!!!! I need her next album to be in that direction PLEASE
Ayone who doesn't agree that Carrie Underwood is one of the most gifted singers out there, prove it to me.
Am I trippin or did they make them sing 1475 songs that season? I feel like now they get 7 max
They're not all from Idol
There was so much talent this season, and the 2005 season (With Pickler, Daughtry, McPhee etc.) These 2 have been my favorite seasons so far.
I love how you can see her confidence grow :) good for her! She's amazing
OMG I bet Carrie is looking back at all this footage & saying " It sure has been a BLESSED rise." She commented on the ACM's that she owed it all to Idol & Simon. She is totally awesome & truely has been BLESSED with the gift of voice. You go girl

She's really good at each kind of music...ballad, all out rock, country, classic, 70's anthem, all around excellent singer and performer.
Carrie is very good...she sings from her soul...she has a strong, powerful voice...she feels her songs as she sings them..thats what its all about. Fantastic..
Carrie has a beautiful voice. I love listening to her songs especially singing with Keith Urban. Love these video's
Why does she look like Reese Witherspoon in this?
I noticed that as well! I had never thought so before!
That’s what it is!!!
i literally typed "reese witherspoon american idol" on youtube search and then I realized
I always thought she looked like emily osment.
Google her
YES SHE DOES LOOK LIKE REESE... LOVE ME SOME REESE. THEY BOTH ARE SWEET GIRLS.
I discovered her on RUclips and absolutely love her. I have bought both her albums and I live in England
I remember I cried when she won! She is still my favorite singer today!
