Crystal Bowersox - Maybe I'm Amazed

American Idol 2010 - Top 3 | Crystal's second song. When I first listen to that song, two thoughts crossed my mind: for one thing - Halleluja Girl, you've got balls!! - and for another thing - that's it. This is the future voice of MamaSox! Full passion and expressive power. The metamorphosis is finished! But check it out youselves, folks.

[@rickypilcher3618]

Underrated, for sure!

[@Abuamina001]

Mashallah. THAT was AMAZING !

[@writerpaperback6284]

A genius wrote This song.

[@BACfernandez]

love it!

[@TheKoolcee]

voteeeeeeeeeeeeeeee forrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr crystallllllllllllllllllll wouldnt we love to see crystal in her own music video

[@okltsply]

This is a McCartney song he played every instrument and did all the vocals by himself. This was before wings was formed and after the Beatles broke up.

[@AlanQuinn-bo6fx]

There are voices and the there is CRYSTAL LOL - ON A LEVEL MORTAL EARS CANNOT UNDERSTAND

[@MedicalNemesis]

@ABundy09 Macca = McCartney, if that's what you were asking. I'm very happy she didn't change the lyrics to "maybe I'm a girl..." Still great though :) and thanks for the vid.

[@BobsArtGallery]

Very very good lady...

[@patricemarie2960]

... I Feel It! .... Wow .... Wow! ..... TAKE IT OUT LADY! .....

[@emmygerard]

Simon is always talking about how you don't want a karaoke performance. Her not changing the lyrics made it sound so much like karaoke because it was like she was just reading the words and not putting any feeling into them.

[@thomasdef634]

Works for me!

[@paulinechapman5669]

Of course ..Mr negativity..and she told him politely..l am comfy being me,,🇨🇦

[@watermusic711]

Check out black oak arkansaw ruby version

[@norbertol4780]

Poderosísisima voz, yes she sing to Janis.

[@gwensokata]

@aurush4 I do have 2 disagree, Crystal did by far the best cover, she put heart into this, made me 'feel'!!

[@jhniscolV2]

@TranceTechnoSucks who's macca? i thought this was the beatles

[@rickflaherty881]

Crystal did not choose to sing this song herself. This was an Idol Judge song selection night, Ellen Degeneres picked this song for her to sing. And she knocked it out of the park!

[@StilettoCutsQuick.]

She sang the hell out of this song....

[@emmygerard]

I'm just giving my opinion just like you so why get mad? The writer would not be insulted if you change some of the words to fit the singer. In fact, there was an example of this happening. Aaron Kelly sang You've Got a Way by Shania Twain. She was the mentor helping him and he changed the words to fit him. It was a good change and I doubt she was offended or she would have told him not to do it. Who cares what Simon says? I do! He was my favorite judge and the show isn't the same without him.

[@paolo38021]

Great McCartney song!

[@mysticdragon75]

@ABundy09 THX!!!

[@ninjacombat11]

@TheGamblersCousin I disagree. You can't really compare them, their vocals styles are totally different, durbin is like a rob halford type thing and bowersox had a janis joplin thing goin on. Their both really talented.

[@LyricsRNo1]

me to!

[@MedicalNemesis]

@jhniscolV2 This is a Paul McCartney and the wings song. Macca = Mccartney

[@RudolfGottfried]

@mysticdragon75 What's on mystic? :-)

[@RudolfGottfried]

@mysticdragon75 I'm curious about it. Good luck! :-))

[@mysticdragon75]

@ABundy09 Working on some request videos right now. Also working on a tribute video project for Adam Lambert. I hope you will join in.

[@christopherbudde8198]

She should do the Janis Joplin movie.

[@RudolfGottfried]

@TranceTechnoSucks 'Macca's lyrics'? LOL Okay, why she did it? That’s simple. She did not sing namely the adapted Jem-lyrics - 'Maybe I'm A Girl And Maybe I'm A Lonely Girl [...] That She Doesn't Really Understand' - she sang the original lyrics, written by and for a man. This small change in the chorus is just one of their special jokes. ;)

[@havoc092]

@bostonfan013 Comparing Crystal and James Durbin is like trying to compare Billy Joel with Meatloaf or Elton John. They're good in their own right; but, not necessarily better than one another. Crystal and James both should have been season winners. Both should be on concert tours and both should be headlining major venues.

[@bostonfan013]

@havoc092 Im not comparing them, Im comparing their covers

[@juffan]

@ABundy09 Send me the article when it comes out

[@juffan]

@ABundy09 No, but I know him so if you just send it to him I'll pick it up from his place. Thanks, I've never been in the paper before

[@AlanQuinn-bo6fx]

America - this did not win LOL - I am musically smart - THIS WINS EVERY SEASON DOPES

[@RudolfGottfried]

@juffan No problem! What’s your address? I've got it! "Little, Canadian smart alec who denied the simple respect for the grandiose power of this exceptional talent, to cover this famous and musically exhausting song in fuckin’ one minute and forty seconds"! Right?

[@knowhereman1]

I'm not mad. Sorry for sounding too harsh. We just don't agree.

[@RudolfGottfried]

@juffan Really? That's the madness, I will immediately inform the press. Promise dude! LOL

[@knowhereman1]

She DID change the lyrics...actually screwed them up a bit. And it's an insult to the writer to change the words. I'm sure it was unintentional in this case. You don't know what you're talking about. And who the hell cares what Simon says?

[@JLynn943]

this is lightyears better than James Durbin's version

[@bostonfan013]

Durbin's version is way ahead!

[@emmygerard]

Well, the way she sang it obviously doesn't make it her own. She could have sang, "Maybe he's a man..."

[@RudolfGottfried]

@xxY2JLEDGENDKILLERxx James better than Crystal? You kiddin’ me, right? My first thought was: Dear Jesus, please fuck me in both ears! And my second: A kingdom for a bazooka! 2 days ago my niece has her guinea pig trapped in the cage door. Sounded bloody similar like his whining. :D Seriously dude, the 80s are over & pot-handle-eared wannabe rocker with oversized key chains are just extremely embarrassing! ;o)

[@macbeth870]

This woman's voice is infinitely superior to Paul McCartney's voice. But, hey, you aren't allowed to mess with a legend.

[@MedicalNemesis]

really love this girl, but what really ruined it for me was that she said "that I don't really understand" instead of "that he doesn't really understand", one of those small things that just ruin everything :( I mean Macca's lyrics are perfect, why change them?

[@LyricsRNo1]

She is singing about a girl... MAYBE I'M A MAN...

[@juffan]

Paul did it better

[@cmrxs]

IS she a man..?

[@juli8K1]

jordis sung it better

[@angelaforshey2224]

Better than kelly Clarkson but not as successful... wonder why

[@TheGamblersCousin]

Still don't know how she got to the final 2. Guess it was a weak season.. YEah it was, Lee Dewyze won. James Durbin's version is about 18X better.

[@RudolfGottfried]

That's just bullshit.

[@nooneveryimportant]

her voice doest suit the song, it just doesnt sound good
