American Idol Season 9 2010
Lee DeWyze sings -Hey Jude The Beatles Lennon McCartney - Top 9 Performances

[@CMWren87]

Remembered this out of no where. This version made me like the original. Still holds up.

[@youngr720]

Years later this is still the best Beatle cover showing the fun chillin' side of Lee Dewyze!

[@uppityglivestockian]

Ever since I heard this rendition, it became my all time favorite. On bagpipe. Period. lol Seriously great.

[@hugesbspfreak]

my friend told me that he played bagpipes when he sang it for american idol and this is one of my top favorites songs by The Beatles so i had to hear it

[@healthhavencom]

The bag pipe player should have taken a fall down the stairs in slow motion, from the top step.
Pure comedy.

[@ACTopher315]

hard to really do justice to the Beatles because they are so legendary but I think he really did it well!!!!

[@gagkay22]

he was my pick almost from the auditions! this is probably his best performance! sooo glad he won!

[@gotclass22]

i miss hearing lee's voice ! they could have chosen a better song for him to come out with on his first album. but i still love him !

[@mj_1258]

[@MelissaWill3]

[@lovfrnd]

Simon, you were sooooooooooooo wrong on this one!!! I absolutely LOVED it! The bagpipe topped this performance by Lee, off! LEE.. YOU'VE GOT MY VOTE ALL THE WAY.. LOVE YOU.. YOU ROCK!!!

[@Sean5771]

Who else thought the bagpipes made this performance cool? : )

[@KristinPoll15]

I swear this seems like yesterday....

[@mattysparks]

That awkward moment when nobody in the audience knows one of the greatest songs of all time

[@MattHayesVinyl]

It didn't help that, in true American Idol fashion, the structure of the song was butchered beyond recognition.

[@anthonyd9076]

The performance was amazing! I'm a Lee dewyze fan!

[@Tasnim16]

I love Lee and Andrew. Awesomeness.

[@ashullu]

i love andrew and lee ayy

[@yancy361]

The Best Performance

[@theironcriminal]

messed up one phrase, but it was amazing. His voice. Is amazing. And he made the song to fit his style.

[@SnailSatan]

Oh hey its my old Bagpipe instructor

[@smick1313]

i'm literally in love with this man xoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxoxoxo

[@poopmcdoopdoop]

Aww yeah Aaron (bagpipe dude) freakin awesome

[@WhatAndEver]

Yes, I would've loved to see Lee and Andrew have a buncha Danny Gokey babies.

[@theluli713]

Congrats Lee! You rocked today! And you know, I loved his confidence in saying to Simon that was 100% your decision. And by the way, enjoy the advice of Adam Lambert next week, after all he is the master of entertainment and more than anyone knows how to please the judges and audience. Good luck to you.

[@clarasarmento1]

i miss watching him every week :(

[@C.J2547]

that first 'better' he sang hurt my ears. this seemed a little... rough and throaty for hey jude. this was murder on the beatles... he did better on the boxer
the bagpipe is epic.

[@dianegreen5429]

I have such a crush on this guy--he is amazing!

[@johnnythebagpiper9296]

That was awsome bro good job

[@veemichrina7589]

one of my favs on AI was LD

[@brianhagaman3305]

I have to agree with Simon on this one

[@wintoyanan]

[@alleejo2019]

[@southdakotapresidents2695]

Alene Rounds 0

[@percussion86]

that is quite underrated!!

[@212121lois]

it wont let me post this on Facebook :(

[@drmayeda1930]

I have to pity the ... music Wrangler for that season 1 bag piper 1 digereedoo player. He must have been wondering what the guys at American Idol were smoking when he saw the request for a marching band with torches. I'm serious. I remember the scene but not the season or episode. Also the American Idol where after he last contestant performs part of the set falls down.

[@bigdaddyDtime]

i was just gonna comment about that...

[@richardfaccio4291]

As a bagpipe player I still say he shouldn't have done that

[@shutup1219]

i like bagpipe

[@brianhagaman3305]

That was a good idea The Bagpipe Player I Was Wrong before I kinda liked it

[@ashullu]

ahhh

[@brianok01]

@clarasarmento1 i sure dnt.

[@JohnCenaManiac619]

@Grrrstin oh aren't you a futureseer :)

[@C.J2547]

@xcapote
its ellen, she's a lesbian not a man. xD

[@salmafathy5664]

Well guess what he won

[@paddythepiper1]

Everyone knows simon hates pipers he admited it on brits got talent the mans a fool with lots of money !!!!

[@XxfearingxX]

he sang it waaaaay wrong. Not the right lyrics!

[@bernarddeocampo1776]

All these songs the contestants do they have to shorten them to be around 2 minutes

[@Thegaijinpenguin21]

to strong of a voice

[@stonefaceBRC]

*Bagpipe intensifies*

[@Lionelguyc]

I think he didn't have the right voice for this song and the bagpipes didn't make it better. Bagpipes are nice but they didn't sound great in this Beatles song, I think this guy should have went with another song. I think a Nickelback song would have worked better, but not a Beatles song. that's too bad though, I love the Beatles music.

[@Mattyhull1]

I wonder how much money Lee owes everyone now because he made it all the way to the finale and won??? Probably a million dollars.

[@surfrunnerd8457]

wow. not good........

[@NSB-me8fv]

Laine hardys version brought me here

[@tylerhorsman]

the only good thing about him winning is that he's not on tv anymore... by far one of the absolute worst singers in the show's history.

[@AmericanIdolz2011]

Bagpipes FTW!
