I'm not even from Hawaii, but this is what makes Hawaii different!!
You got that right❤❤❤
That's right!
Amazing people.
Yes absolutely this is Hawaii❤
Jack Johnson and Iam signing together is something special. Wow..
I don’t know about anyone else, but I absolutely love this human🎶♥️🎶
He’s so humble and down to earth, doing his parents proud. I’m sure his dad is smiling down on him.
Exactly… watching from Annapolis Maryland on the East coast with tears in my eyes… he is a very special young man
My family lives in Mililani and we are all voting for him ❤️🤙🏼❤️
Bro...I lived in Haaula for 9 years and I can tell you that IAM is a reflection of his beautiful culture..........God Bless Hawaii
I live in frozen Alberta, Canada....his aloha spirit melts all our hearts too!
The WHOLE 🌏 is watching Him slowly Grieving His Father LIVE on His Journey to become the MOST Magical Singer of all time 💖🙏🌠🌌🪻🌞🌺🌊🌸💦❤️✨🥰
He's restored my faith that humanity still exists. I don't know if he's the American Idol, as that remains to be seen, but he's definitely America's Sweetheart.
I think he will be the next American idol but for now he’s the Hawaiian idol 🤙🏽🤙🏽💯💯💯💯
Definitely he is American sweetheart win or lose…. In my heart ❤️ he is the winner!!!!
Vote him n he will win!Your vote counts!!
Even Katy believes he’s the next idol
In the history of all of these shows, there has never been a sensation like Iam. It would be a moral crime and shame if he does not win.
I am a soon to be a 47 year old man married with children. I look at Iam and I am so proud of him. Your Pop's has the biggest smile on his face watching over you. He had all the confidence in you and you felt it. Thank Rodney for teaching Iam everything he knows!! Love you Iam!!
I didnt think him singing monsters again would make me so emotional. The support he has , his mom was just incredible.
Mahalo for covering it when difficulties happened. Monsters was very emotional and it was so touching to see Iams family put their hand on his back and sing with him for support so he could sing in memory of his father Rodney. So beautiful.
🤙❤️
❤❤❤❤❤
He sang Monsters better that James Blunt for sure. I hope he makes an album of all the songs he performed on this journey. #IamTongi🎶♥️🎶
Omg yes. I seen that as well while wiping tears from my eyes. I've cried a lot from and for IAM. Good guy
I love Iam's mom! she just there to support her son! humble just a mom but without you mom the world will not have an Iam ❤❤❤
The ease, joy, spontaneity, love and *aloha* in that duet with Jack Johnson... beautiful. This is *humanity.* This is the aloha spirit we so desperately need in this world. Mahalo, Iam. Mahalo, Hawai'i. 🌺🤙
Mahalo for having this available! Iam is special and has a heart more valuable than gold! God Bless Iam, Tongi family and special shout out to his mom Lillie for signing him up for AI! Much love to everyone near and far! 🙏🏽💜🙏🏽🌺
Thanks to mama too. She is so strong and so supportive we love you too mama!!
Never has there been a clearer winner 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Bawling all over again!! Reality hits this sweet boy. Look how far he came❤️❤️❤️
All support for you Iam all the way from Marshall Islands 🇲🇭
Ian Tongi you already win American Idol. Love from Samoa
Iam, you rocked that stage with talent & confidence & represented your state beautifully. And when you sang Monsters-I felt the lyrics in my bones & cried.
You seem so sweet, patient & fun. Surround yourself with good, honest people. Your world is about to change dramatically. Red ready for life-yessah!
JC in TN
Monsters is now Iam's song. So gut wrenching to watch.

the raw talent, the raw footage, so thankful for KITV sharing this
I am so blessed to have heard Iam's audition his songs heal my hurts. Love you Iam keep singing from your heartm
I believe the theme is can you feel the love tonight. So happy to hear this amazing young man represent the beautiful islands and he makes the world smile. Thank you for sharing his Beautiful gift
Only Idol I've ever voted for. I've set my alarm so I don't miss it! Go Iam!
Happy happy to be able to watch Iam and with his community/people right there with him..
Iam tongi is amazing, to me he sings with love and passion, and there’s an honesty and truth in his delivery, all of this Is encompassed by his faith in his family and community, and I wish him nothing but the best. I would love to see him perform one day.
Cool, Iam's homecoming become a big musical festival. Shout out for the greatness of Hawiians!!!
What a magical homecoming. Just perfect. All these celebs and they ALWAYS putting Iam in the spotlight. So everybody knows it's all about Iam tonight. What an amazing people. Good to know he has such kind caring people around him.
As Iam said "this is crazy"! all of this activity going on around him amazing!! Please lets protect this special young man🙏🏿🤙🏿
He needs to come back for the lantern festival, and sing that song while his family sends out a lantern for his dad!
Just INCREDIBLE old Hawaii vibes I❤it🎉TEAM TONGI🎉
Everything about Iam is so special. When Adam Lambert worked with him, Iam asked him how he dealt with his friends being eliminated and leaving the show. Even one of the nicest people in show business (according to Simon Cowl and many others) said he was focused on winning, not making friends. When Iam hugs his competitors as they are eliminated, I truly believe he suffers a touch of heartbreak. He is also the only person ever to thank me for leaving good comments on his video. There has seldom been others more deserving of all good things than this man and I wish him the very best always. By the way, who is the first band with the beautiful song written for the singer's dad?
Iam is undoubtedly super talented but it is not just that talent that is propelling him to the top. His humbleness and his no shame to show emotions is having such an enormous affect on not only Hawaii and America but also globally. Iam Tongi is what that world needs now.
Crying while watching this as you see how humble he is. ❤❤ Keep being you and stay humble.
Omg I'm 😢😢😢😢😢 thank you Iam for showing your courageousness I know ur dad is smiling down at you from heaven ❤❤❤❤
WOW down to earth and a GREAT SINGER. The next AMERICAN IDOL !!!! Thank You Iam !!!!
Omgggggg, I’m so happy for Iam
This is the craziest live 😅😮 but I still watched it to see Iam 😩
Mahalo nui loa Miya and KITV 4 News for doing this telecast...YOU ROCK!!!
I love his innocence. I love his heart. I love everything about this young man. May he always be blessed. And dang it.. he made me cry again!!!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤I wanna move to Hawaii! So much love. Iam Tongi is such a special soul, bringing people together with love. For the win!!!
Aloha is not a place. It resides within you. Spread it wherever you go.
