Ive watched every year of idol. No singer has ever touched my heart like this kid does i truly believe he is a angel put on this earth to touch lives GREAT JOB BUDDY
“Stuck on You” is another timeless classic in the Pacific Islands. Such a wonderful sight to see Lionel Richie dancing like a child❤️Iam just got a way at pulling at them heart and dance strings. Lol. Get’em Toko!!
@@mmeadows1014No sense bother entertaining them. People like that purposely come onto people doing great things like Iam, just to throw negativity because their lives are shitty, so it makes them feel better. Dude probably has a personal vendetta with Lionel Richie because his grandma said she slept with him and he left her.
That fly is stuck on the beautiful voice of our Iam!!! Go Iam....!!!!!!!!!! All of us in Hawaii are so proud of you. Rodney is looking down and smiling.
Iam is the truth. This was everything. Like he legit just sang a Lionel song "Stuck on you" which is a timeless classic and regged'd it. I was here vibing. Iam is so dope and his voice is just GOD's gift to mankind. Please go vote guys..
Sorry, he is just a nice guy who is singing the way he (probably) is. There is warmth, sincerity and good mood. And thats it (but certain musical skills). There is no need to make him greater than he is. Enjoy it, but remember - it is just a joy YOU are feeling. The people who are so excited about him and his singing are just missing warmth and sincerity in everyday human relationships. It was the same thing with Alejandro Aranda (who is musically far more better than Iam Tongi). So peoples excitement is not about him at all, but about themselves. And it brings ratings for TV-Company.
If you like this version, check out “Stuck On You” by Ekolu. It’s also a cover from a popular band from Hawai’i, I grew up with this version and I was screaming when I heard him do it like this.
Besides the fact that he has very beautiful tone and amazing pitch, he also has a very sweet, Soothing traditional Hawaiian style that is very genuine and boasts of a very heartfelt approach. People need to hear him because we need his talent and style to be a light and a lot of darkness in the world today. He has a very old soul style that is amazing for any artist in this day and age but let alone such a young artist. I hope he takes good care of himself Because we need him to be around a long time.
My son he see him when he was in Hawaii and he was singing in one of occasion and my son said he can win to American Idol with his Voice… what a coincidence… Congratulations 🍾🎊🎈🎉 Iam….
It seems every performance Iam Tongi gets better and better and more confident, which is saying a lot because every song is AMAZING!!!!! Go Iam win it all
EXACTLY! I was thinking the same thing…his confidence and showmanship is through the roof! Dang, the stupid format is just too short…I could listen to him all night. And he doesn’t even need to win this…he will have a career anyway. I will gladly buy anything he puts out and pay good money to see him live😊
Look at him!! He's smiling and his eyes are open...his confidence is building to the Big Stage...WE are smiling from ear to ear toooooooo Can't stand it!! YES!!!!! A STAR IS BORN ⭐️ IAM TONGI 💯 NO.1 ⭐️ 💿
U killing me with happiness Iam Tongi. Smiling so big my face hurts. I am even happier than Lionel Richie right now. You are worth all my votes each week & so much more. Great job with Stuck on You. Yes I am, I am stuck on you Iam Tongi. How many old lady grandmas like me are in love with you?♥️🙏🌟Kauai love from one of your fans.♥️
This is the best cover of this song I have ever heard. The reggae beat really gave it a different vibe one that Lionel obviously loved. So many great voices in Hawaii it seems to be part of the islander's DNA so it is not a surprise that an American Idol winner would come from that great state.
What makes Iam amazing besides his voice and his story is his innocence and playfulness. Plus every performance gets better and his confidence soars. Iam. Hawaii is with you!! ❤️
Iam Tongi you DA BEST my brother! Bradda IZ waving one shaka at you right now and your dad giving you one big hug from up and above! You going to WIN this my brother! All of Hawaii Islands and America got your back. Everybody on all the Hawaiian Islands TEXT your Votes in every week! Lets give Iam the Aloha support!
This is perhaps my favorite Lionel Ritchie song. As I see the judges dancing aorund to it, I see the Lionel was overjoyed at Iam Tongi's version of it. Love this!!!
As a huge fan of Country Music and (in my opinion) none greater than George Jones himself, I could listen to this kid sing anything for hours on end. Music isn't in his soul. He IS the music ! Everything about him is so genuine. That speaks volumes.
It’s indeed the Iam Tongi show! He gets better with every performance. And Lionel’s face says it all - he honored him well. All these artists come out here with their take on newer modern day music and then Iam Tongi takes us bck. Timeless and just pure joy! He is our American idol! 💕😭😭🥰🥰
I can’t stop watching. My soul is smiling too hard! His smile lights up everything in me. Absolutely beautiful rendition and voice. This brings me so much joy!! 🥰
I’m from Australia I watch every of his performance and make me so happy…Iam tongi go all the way and keep singing from your heart ❤️ your the American idol..all the best of luck
I become a big fan of Lionel Richie and I am currently diving into his music. He seems so happy when someone plays his song. He is my favorite judge. Great job I am . 😊
Awesome brother all the pacific islands people proud of you 👏 you represent your family and your country surely your dad really proud of you ! Plus I like the reggae version. Let’s goooo!!!
Not only spreading the love through his sound when he sings but he’s spreading the true meaning of aloha! He makes everyone feel something that America is missing nowadays! You go braddah Iam!
That big smile at the beginning 😍 nice to see him come out of shell and connect - then give the Island vibes in the way he does, taking everyone with him to that happy place. Well done
Lionel.Richie reaction the whole performance and gave him a hug..what an amazing man he is. He appreciated IAM a lot..and his voice is brilliant..my winner for me❤🌹🇵🇭
man!!! he makes all the originals songs sound like we just heard them for the 1st time.... This will be on his 1st album for sure!!!! He has my vote all the way to #1
O...M...G...! Just when I thought things couldn't get any better for Iam...he does THAT!...and to a LIONEL RICHIE song of all things! AND he brought the song to the islands! I thought I had seen it all. Move over Joshua Ledet and Jessica Sanchez (the last two Idol contestants to move me like THIS...) Iam Tongi is coming through!! JLo once said of Joshua Ledet that he was the best thing she'd ever seen on Idol. THIS is the best thing to EVER be on Idol. Period! I am so excited for Iam!!
Love the shirt toko and the way you still rock up on stage wearing the Polynesian safety boots . . . . Jandals or as they call them in the states flip flops. Awesome performance uso. Go all the way . . . .
This guy makes me cry all the time when I watch him sing on American idol. Your voice is smooth, and you enjoy yourself on stage singing. You deserve to win
Lionel wasn't excited that Iam was singing one of his songs. Lionel was excited about what Iam did to his song and how he delivered it. Iam is cutting his album on AI. So fun to watch!
That fly that was stuck on him was a sign of his father showing him that he's there with him through his journey. I'm proud of you tongi we're all gonna go through what you did losing your dad but you keep going that's what counts.
I love this kid so much! He is a TRUE talent. I am SO happy to see him smile, having fun and so excited. Rodney is definitely smiling down on Iam. It seems Iam can take any song/genre, put his own twist on it and make it an outstanding performance. Did I say I love this kid?
Man this kid just keeps getting better and better. Was hoping he would do a Lionel Richie song 😃 Absolutely killed it. Iam’s father would be so proud R.I.L
Iam Tongi, I really enjoy 😊 everything you sing, I have seen no one touch the people that you have touched . Enjoy your success, young man I know your father and family a very proud.❤
IAM, you just made the entire world connect in a massive party worldwide. You bring our Island and Polynesian vibe in the show to make people go crazy . Lionel is in the moon because of what you just did to one of his main hits. CONGRATULATIONS BIG BOY, IAM TONGI
Tongi has 370k+ views on this video while the rest of the contestants can’t even break 50k. Dude is miles above everyone else and he deserves to win it all.
He does. But they will pick some blond chick. This guy makes me want to watch A. Idol again. Old soul. Had me going and listening to old songs my step dad use to play. Brought back fond memories of days gone bye.
IAM is the WHOLE PACKAGE! Authentic charm and character, wise beyond his 18 years. I pray he keeps smiling, laughing, and singing for many, many more years! He is a testament to his departed father, and family and truly loves singing. Go get ‘em Iam!
Ive watched every year of idol. No singer has ever touched my heart like this kid does i truly believe he is a angel put on this earth to touch lives GREAT JOB BUDDY
Especially in these times we are having now adays
His dad has a lot to do with this
He really is
The reggae beat he does with his songs is tremendous
Absolutely he is a very humble and very happy sou;l

When you’re singing a cover and the original artist/songwriter is grooving to it in the audience, you know you’ve made it…
For reals!! Lionel was loving it, but when that island vibe hit, I thought he was going to go lead a conga line! 😄 He was over da moon!
@Melissa Marie Brown listen to the eddie Lovett version of stuck on you his is a reggae version

Exactly...he is music
I don't think this is a country song.
This is black soul music written by Lionel Richie in the early 80s..
Omg, Iam I love that song andmy goodness you rocked it. Thank you.
Love love this, that voice!! Greetings from South Africa

This boy, IAM TONGI has a magical singing prowess. Any songs he sings he delivers it well.
Some of the songs he sung, I'd never heard it before but absolutely love them all now. 🥰🥰❤️❤️
I can’t stop watching. My soul is smiling too hard! His smile lights up everything in me. Absolutely beautiful rendition and voice. This brings me so much joy!! 🥰

He talks through his songs - when singing Stuck on you he saluted Lionel with his eyes and as if "I pay tribute to your song" - Simple nice guy
I LOVE HIM!! Pure heart and soul!! Touching the world!!! Thank you for posting all these wonderful videos.
Lionel Richie has said in the past that if anyone is going to cover one of his songs to make it their own. Iam accomplished that. Wow!
