clay aiken To Love Somebody

[@jenriquec]

There hasn't been anyone in 7 seasons of american idol who can sing like clay, he is just at another level.

[@Tilbillygirl]

This is an amazing song. Just finished watching barry Gibb sing it in 1967, but when Clay sings this song, it is absolutely incredible. As Robin Gibb said, this is the way the song should be sung. Clay is the best American Idol so far in my opinion.

[@christyannification]

How in the world can anyone not like this performance from Clay. He's an Awesome Singer, and he should have won.

[@Pita-dm10]

Definitely

[@Totallywild624]

This has got to be one of may favourite Clay performances ever, he sings it so beautifully. The relief on his face after Simon says something nice is immense!

[@ClaysSTO]

Simon got it right! That performance was wonderful -- Clay has a voice like no one else. His live concerts are amazing.

[@derwfan1]

One of my most favorite performances by Clay on AI. No glitz, no staged performance, just great singing! Still my favorite contestant on Idol ever. I miss the days of newcomers with no real experience coming on and showing what they have!

I never get tired of listening to Clay Aiken. What a singer OMG!! Simply the best!

[@Lblu1181]

Clay's vocal on this performance put my brain in heaven, complete and total perfection, period.

[@midgedanny1]

This is one of his many best performances his voice is golden....

[@unaserenata]

Best cover of this BeeGees classic by anyone ever, anywhere, anytime, forever. Many will try, but no one will ever come close to Clay.

[@ClaysSTO]

Revisiting this -- no one could sing this any better. Great voice. So sorry Robin Gibb is not well. Prayers.

[@SUNSHINEWAGON]

My absolute FAVORITE song performance of CLAY's of all time! Can't get enough of it! FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE!!

[@waynebrasler]

Even sweeter to think of what waited ahead for him, an extraordinary career of distinction, taking chances, and putting what really counts in life ahead of all else.

[@enzojeff]

He's one of the greatest American Idol contestants! Im sad that he did not win... :(

[@Kathierock]

Clay sang this song so beautifully. It is the best version of To Love Somebody I've ever heard. "This is the way the song should be sung", comment from Robin Gibbs himself.

[@TTison]

This is such a magical performance, one of Clay's best. And the audience reactions just add so much to the effect when they freak out cheering for him. So amazing, love you Clay

[@Eva0605]

he is so perfect... his eyes, his smile, his voice is to die for... i love him

[@brandykody11]

he is and still is friggin awesome.....omg....i could listen to him for hours....and i have

[@Griwhoolda]

For me, Clay's best performance during the Competition. Yes, even better than Bridge Over Troubled Water.

[@clayloveable]

What an awesome job on this song. And for Simon to say it was the "BEST" is awesome. Clay has a beautiful voice and he sings beautifully with such passion. Love my Clay can't listen to him enough. If I'm having a bad day all I have to do is put Clay on.

[@CynthiaJColeman]

He can sing and can pierce your heart and soul with his music.

[@SweetJasmine926]

Great Voice I love how Clay Aiken sings this song the best on American Idol ever...

[@vstreamer]

That is one of the best performances from Season 2, hands down. Amazing vocals, great song!

[@messykatt]

I've watched every season of this show, and this is my all-time #1 favorite performance. BOTW or Solitaire usually get mentioned, but this is the one that gives me chills every time I hear it. Also to Lisa - thanks so much for providing it. Very high quality vid. And just ignore the little people. They have nothing to say and they know it.

[@jimquantic]

So cool to have one of the BGee's sitting there, and saying after the performance "that's the way the song should be sung"

[@lgluna]

He's got beautiful facial features, a great slender built and a VOICE to die for! Love it!

[@unaserenata]

Prayers and healing thoughts to Robin Gibb tonight. I had to come back and listen to this living legend tell Clay what a billiant job he did. Brought a little tear to my eye when he gave Clay a thumbs up.

[@ednamccraw8685]

me too i like the way he sing's this song.., fantastic voice you have clay...you always smile....thats why people like you so much....

[@unaserenata]

I hadn't seen this in a long while. He still moves me after all these years. I love you Clay.

[@gerra730]

Great performance. I'd love to hear him perform the entire song.

[@karina177177]

I really enjoyed his singing this beautiful song - he really did it justice more than many other singers. Hope you score a good place in the competition

[@00gjsmith]

excellent and I just love listening to Clay. America got this one definitely wrong. Let's revote. Great choice of songs and brillant singer. Keep it up Clay and make an album with some of the other 2nd place singers. I will definitely purchase whatever you make.

[@kdmomont]

Please record this, Clay. Absolutely the best.

[@hev1965]

This boy can bloody sing, i love his voice, so pure !!!

[@pcervantes60]

He is fantastic. Love this song!

[@ImsweetonClay]

This was the performance that I literally stopped whatever I was doing, sat down and listened to the entire song when it aired on Rewind. It was all I could think about until I found it again on KZbin. One word---Flawless!!! Go Clay!!!

[@cyndedawson3129]

Yesssss clay 🔥💯 for sure!!!!

[@redguerrero21]

best AI for me can't stop my self from listening with all his songs long live CLAY!

[@songcaiying]

The reason i love Clay Aiken's songs is his voice makes special vibrations in my brain that produces happy feelings, so i can listen to his songs again and again . His songs become my happy capsules.

[@GrissomLovesSara]

This stands as one of his best. So perfect

[@merit66]

This is one of his best performances ever...the song itself is perfect...I love BeeGees and grew up listening to them and Clay just took this song and "kicked it up a notch"...BRAVO MY MAN!!!!

[@marywheaton4272]

wow, what a great voice, love his voice so much, he should have won, but he is doing great! God bless him.

[@realitypenland7738]

Love his voice on this song!

[@newstart18]

In my opinion, no one delivers this song like Michael Bolton does, his version is the best of many that have been done. Having said that, this effort by Clay is really, really good.

[@lgluna]

Simply Beautiful!!!

[@reagangal]

I gotta agree - heard several versions of this song but Clay's is my favorite....love it. He's got a tremendous voice...

[@MBRproductions]

This is literally my favourite Clay performance of his career thus far. Yay Clay!

[@JRRDPR]

He is so effortless.Born to sing man!!

[@Tigempz]

Clay makes each song his own. After he sings, you forget the original!

[@marywheaton1749]

Love this song sung by Clay especially, he's got a great voice - my favorite singer.

[@Poodlemama2]

I LOVE THIS. I have seen it 10 times and still cannot believe just HOW GOOD IT IS! Hopefully he will include song on upcoming album! WHAT A TALENT!

[@kiermar]

My favorite Clay's performance on Idol, and that's saying a lot.

[@clayloveable]

God has given Clay a beautiful voice and a wonderful talent to share with us, and he is doing just that...God Bless you Clay!

[@reagangal]

This was the week I fell in love with Clay! What a brilliant performance! Still gives me goose bumps!

[@jaisy100]

I just love clay. His voice is just awesome. He sings every songs so beautiful and makes them his own. he is just awesome, awesome, awesome and awesome

[@00gjsmith]

Great preformance. Should have won!! This guy can sing!!!

[@HeyButtahfly]

He looks really good in a blue tie. BTW, I wish Clay would record this song.

[@saddy941]

Talented man... Fantastic voice... you are the winner..for sure!!"Thnx for shar.

[@medrecs]

The best singer to come out of any reality show, in fact I find it hard to think of another singer to compare with his vocal talent.

[@okdawit]

I'm happy we are blessed to have another amazing voice to relish in. Thank you God for Clay Aiken.

[@SUNSHINEWAGON]

This is my favorite of his too, so beautifully smooth and sung with feeling! Absolutely gorgeous!

[@samlatte]

One of the best vocals on American Idol..brilliant!

[@ginafernandez3614]

clay aiken you're the best 🎵🎵🎵

[@bd9598]

Clay is a true American Singer and Star. Go Clay! I LOVE his voice!

[@borin23]

Clay was beautiful on this song. He has such a soulful voice. Loved it!

[@mgarati]

No one, and I mean NO ONE can sing that song like Clay. I cannot get enough of hearing him sing To Love Somebody. His version is the all time best. To this day (2/29/08, I get chills when I hear him sing it.

[@beverlygw]

I come & watch Clay's videos every year during AI season to compare the current contestants. There is definately no comparison, this season or any other. You go Clay!!

[@monsonize]

....what a beautiful version.....great singer, great talent and great voice what you have waiting for an idol HE is CLAY AIKEN

[@GrissomLovesSara]

And yet another Idol performance superiour to Fantasia's Summertime

[@galuh2000]

the best American idol ever

[@boots61]

I so hope Clay sings this on his tour this summer. Love his version!!!! Eeeeeee my first Clay concert in Reno on July 31st!!!!!

[@317cube]

the best american idol performance of any season period!

[@geekoftheweek27]

Everyone loves Solitaire, but this is pretty much magical for me.

[@SpeakingEbil]

Best cover of this song ever on an Idol series around the globe.

[@ImsweetonClay]

I love how Clay looks at Paula when she begins to make her comment. His gorgeous face softens & she can't take her eyes off of him either. I was never a big Paula Abdul fan but she sure has a knack for choosing talent. She rooted 4 Clay from the very beginning.Clay is the best ever, winner or not, Clay's #1!! He can sing anything & sing it well!!!

[@pcervantes60]

Even if you don't like him (and you are crazy) he can sing!

[@ImsweetonClay]

Thanks for clearing that up 4 me.I don't know why ppl take the time to diss other ppl who do no harm to them. This is the performance that sealed the deal 4me.I was already liking Clay, he is a super talented dude. But OMG, this performance was perfect!

[@nascarkraz]

OMG, this may be the first time I agree with Simon! "Probably one of the best performances in the competition!"

[@unaserenata]

RIP Robin Gibb. Your music lives on!

[@wadi86]

amazing voice from clay

[@317cube]

this is the greatest american idol performance that i've ever seen!

[@SUNSHINEWAGON]

According to the show's producers, CLAY AIKEN HAD 80% OF THE VOTES EVERY WEEK after the wildcard show. So you tell me who REALLY WON!!!!

[@Poodlemama2]

This is my favorite Clay song. Someone, please, get Clay to record this. Its kind of sad to keep playing this vid over and over and over...

[@monsonize]

......i like the way he sang the song and he's performance is superb for me, i agree with the judges especially to simon cowel two thumbs up for you clay

[@girpo]

Lordy,,, that man knocks my socks off,,,he is the best ever,,ever,,,,,,,

[@Keeko78]

This was really good. Saw this for the first time. I haven't seen this season of American Idol.

[@bjesgirl]

clay is like, ridicilous. nobody can hold a candle to him. his voice is just... perfection.

[@EdelweissM_TheJourney]

Wonderful, great rendition!!!

[@blackstersherron]

The problem is people think just bcoz he is gay means they are gay also bcoz they like his voice, the ones who are trying their best to put him down bcoz he is gay really are the ones who like his voice. Why else whould they come on here to bash him. Even if he did not come out the closet hell i knew he was gay, but he can sing his ass off, he really has a unique voice, I thought he should have won, not taking anything from rueben but clay by far to me is the best singer on AI period.

[@Bernievega]

what a voice!

[@0TWINKLES]

I love the way you described that because it totally nails the way I feel. :-)

[@clayloveable]

One word. Awesome! :)

[@SUNSHINEWAGON]

Actually, Clay really DID WIN! The show's producer said in an interview that Clay had 80% of the vote EVERY WEEK after he came back in the wildcard! The problem on finale night was there were so many thousands of people trying to vote for Clay that they couldn't get through. Ruben and Clay are still good friends and Ruben will be touring in a musical soon I think.

[@LuDaughtry]

He's GREAT! What a voice!

[@mar18aiken]

i think that is amazing, its a great song and clay its fabulous, a perfect single

[@HattieLovesCattie]

Robin Gibb loved that rendition!!! Sorry that Robin is so ill now.:(

[@kfccanada]

THis song was the clincher...have been hooked on Clay for 6 years...because of this song...

[@mrceq]

I have no words. Incredible!!

[@dfmboy]

an absolute fantastic VOICE!!!!!

[@christyannification]

I love to hear Clay sing, and i agree he should just be judged on his singing, which is fantastic, he should have won.
