Fantasia Barrino - I Believe

[@disizsumbull]

This song makes me cry every time I hear her sing it. The words and her voice are a deadly combination. Fantasia has to get out her own 'way'. She can easily be an ICON.

[@TokimekiLove]

I can recall myself screaming at the finale. The message of the song with a choir is SO impacting! This truly Fantasia song: she harmonize/synchronize with the song. A true highlight.

[@curtsmitee]

this is the kind of song that is better listening to LIVE..wow, that was a very heart felt performance..

[@totalvicky]

GREATEST Idol EVER! Fantasia has not just a beautiful, unique voice but the rare gift to touch hearts. Fantasia poured out her soul and left her heart on that stage. I will never forget jumping up off the sofa screaming "go on girl" at the TV with tears lstreaming down my face. There will never again be an American Idol moment like this ... Fantasia has a rare and exceptional ability to bare her soul and truly emote. She is an American treasure!

[@MzCalea21]

The best contestant on American Idol EVER...period. I think she caught the spirit during this performance. STILL CHILLS over 3 years later!!!

[@305kb]

We voted her American Idol in season three and there have been no regrets since then. She has been and still is a major success. Love you girl!

[@Sahrya2008]

I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME i hear this song.......You can tell that she FINALLY believes...So much feeling went into this....Charice may have been good but Fantasia was BLINDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you Tasia xxxxx

[@Chihiya11]

my family and i were watching the episode when she won and when they said her name we all ran out of the house screamin. the people outside started runnin away it was great. i cant wait till Fantasia gets back on the seen for good. she deserves all good that can come her way. god bless and you go girl!

[@totalvicky]

The best American Idol performance in the history of the show ... there has never been anything like this and probably never will be again ... AWESOME! INSPIRING! UNIQUE! She left it all on that stage ... Go Tasia!

[@bellaimages]

No kidding! This moment in her life is so glorious as Fantasia needed the strength to believe ... WOW! She brought it tenfold to the stage! This performance ALWAYS gets me emotional and lifts me up and higher every single time I come visit it! That is exactly why this video is at the top of my FAVORITES! What a great performance!

[@2LETLIVE]

She nailed it! She's got this incredible ability to take her audience on emotional journey with her ... tears and goose bumps along the way. Not too many artists can do this folks. She was just nineteen here. Bravo! bravo!!

[@totalvicky]

This NEVER gets old ... inspiring everytime I hear it ... Fantasia is an artist like Patti Labelle who be able to move and touch people for as long as she can carry a tune. What an incredible talent ... I LOVE YOU TASIA!

[@yellowstrawzx]

This is amazing. She was singing straight from her heart, no doubt at all. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to her sing this song. Wow!

[@TexasBlueAngel85]

This is the most powerful performance EVER performed on AI. I have yet to see an Idol as good of a singer as Fanatasia.

[@that1andonlydude]

After 10 Seasons Of American Idol.. There Has NEVER been a Better Finale than this 1.. This song was written just for Tasia.. she brought soul,emotion and strength. That night a True Idol was born! I have loved the work she has done thus far,and Can't wait to see what else she has in store. Go get em Tasia!!!

[@dazzeyful]

This song still gives me the chills each time I watch it... It takes me from my lowest of lowest to the highest of highs! Love the soul - love the conviction - and inspiration Fantasia is!

[@sdarms111]

Electrifying performance, gave me chills. Hands down the best Idol performance ever. It's a privilege to see this girl perform.

[@ingretta74]

Amazing performance. Wow, she was only 19 at the time. and possessed all of that stage presence. She has a long career ahead of her.

[@LadySingeriffic]

Fantasia so deserved to win that year... & I haven't seen anyone on American Idol who can match up to her since then! Best American Idol year ever!! GO FANTASIA, u give me the chills...

[@notabadguy06]

I dont think there will EVER be another idol moment like this one.........

[@Shockage]

This was an anointed performance. This was a massive difference from the other girl, Fantasia lived this song, the other was still living in high school.

[@CrazyBeautiful273]

STILL gives Me Tears.. I Remeber ComeN Home From Work & Turned The TV On & Caught ONLY This Performance I Didnt Watch That Season At All & She Gave Me Tears I Thought To My Self Lord I Hope She Win I LOVE HER VOCALS!!! Truly A Blessing

[@bjthoms85]

This performance still makes me cry!!! Feels like the first time all over again!

[@SaxyBoy91]

there was SO much passion in that performance

[@the1atcpc]

Fantasia is the best American Idol winner there will ever be!!!

[@AntonioDudleyOfficial]

This is why she won. God's gift in her voice so brilliant! Chills!

[@jwilliams8439]

Love it...she believed and received it and still living it.!! Congratulations Fantasia and family!!! Inheritance!!

[@princevince03]

She is, in my opinion, one of the best R&B/pop vocalists to emerge in the past decade. No one sings with that much raw emotion. It's as if I can feel her pain, her hunger for that moment, just by watching this video. One day she will be up there with Aretha and Whitney.

[@trinigirl43]

Wow!!! I saw her Bio on VH1 and wanted to see what I had missed. Absolutely amazing talent! She owned that stage and the song. Outstanding performance!

[@azncutie727]

DAMN. She's amazing. I'm totally tearing up. And whenever I watch her performance of this song at the finale after she wins, I bawl like a little child. There's just something about her voice and the way she sings that you can't help but feel every single emotion she feels. Even during her audition, I felt like I was about to tear up.

[@dreRNME]

The best Idol finale ever! There will never be another Idol finale like season's 3. Idol has lost its zeal to find new talent like Kelly, Ruben, Fantansia, and Carrie.

[@japee5]

This performance is still the best performance American Idol has ever seen

[@37tonya]

If you are not moved by this song, you have a whole in your soul. this girl is sooo talented. I wish her the best in all her goals.

[@LazingOnSunday]

Among all 9 seasons, i think this is the best "final" song ever. Not to mention immaculate vocal, she''s so into this song!! her facial expression and moves all show what she'd been through and that she really believes the lyric!!

[@ina36682]

I cry every time I watch this video and I have seen it hundreds of times. WE LOVE YOU FANTASIA, no matter what the media says. Keep your head up and keep LIVING!

[@AgentAO7]

This song was written for Fantasia and no one else..BRILLIANT!

[@iamsydir]

"I waited all my life, for this moment to arrive", that is a WHOOOOLE bar right there!!!!

[@fobt90]

Fantasia really sang her heart out in this performance. Listening to this helps me regain the faith in myself when I lose it. Thank U Fantasia, and never forget to believe in yourself.

[@broncofangj]

I know this is old and I still cry everytime I watch it.

[@dramasag]

Thanks to Tamyra Gray for writing such an inspirational song, and to Fantasia for singing the mess out of it!!! I listen to this whenever I need encouragement. Goosebumps everytime!!!

[@dreRNME]

No other American Idol finalist's song has never reach the peak of Fantasia's "I Believe!"

[@nemcneil]

Five years later this performance still breaks me down. I haven't seen a performance like this on Idol since.

[@Skysthelimit212]

Fantasia... you were the sole reason why I watched idol from the beginning to the end...I've not watched another idol from then on. Girl you did every song justice :o) Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Elton John and all the other great artists that you paid tribute to, theyr'e all rejoicing because you made them proud. You have a gift to reach millions. Now go out and do your work. I'm so glad that I was able to participate in your crowning glory.

[@Rastis35]

She's actually very famous anymore. She sails to the top of all of the R&B charts. Just because she isn't mainstream, doesn't mean she's a nobody. Check out her newest singles. They're always great debuts on the charts.

[@plpblack]

I get chills everytime I hear this song. I could tell she was finally believing.

[@RondaRoyal19]

This season was the best and she was and still is the best American Idol.....

[@geekoftheweek27]

She was one goddess of a performer... I'm glad she had some success on Broadway.

[@foreversoulful]

Without a doubt, the best finale American Idol has ever had.

[@wanellin]

One of the greatest moments in American Idol history.

[@teerairan1]

Her voice is better than all of the American Idol winners. She is by far the best vocally that that competition every had.

[@TroyDiva]

AMAZING! I don't know how she was able to contain herself with that anointing all over her - I believe that a few folk probably even got saved during that performance. Powerful anointing on her and God shall not be denied. Aspirin, pills, heartbroken, depression, anxiety - HE HAS HIS HAND ON HER I tell you!! He is able to bring her OUT! His word shall not come back to him VOID.

[@xTwilightluFFerrx]

I seriously just cried, this performance was amazing in every way yet powerful. She has such a wonderful gift, she is so blessed. I love her so much. Fantasia

[@ibexy]

wonderful! a video you keep coming back to watch again and again. Lord really gifted her with a wonderful voice!

[@scadet01]

I think what's so exceptional about this song and Fantasia is her voice. It's unusual, raspy, and off a little, but it works! It shows her skill to understand her voice and what it can do with melody, harmony and music. Ppl that dislike usually mean they don't like her voice. That's fine. It's not for everyone. But you can't deny this girl has got talent. Not many can do what she does with a voice like that.

[@edwean]

whatever you going thru' (F.Barrino) God is with you, dont giveup use this;the potholes in your life rightnow to inspire you to write other song and praise God coz he is not thru with you,you are not jus famous you are an inspiration,you jus' dont know how your life story helped me personally!!! God bless!!

[@Elodie830]

still brings tears to my eyes after all these years, thank you for posting

[@sarahjndonovan]

She is so amazing! That performance was epic!

[@patybrenner]

I love her voice, and for sure she has the God's gift. I always pray for her! God bless her

[@MissKaLii]

I remember watching this and thinking THIS IS UNFAIR! Putting Fantasia against that child Diana was like putting Mike Tyson in his prime against a amatuer boxer. Fantasia SLAYED the entire competition with her Summertime performance and this was the final nail in the coffin. The judges couldnt even contain themselves. There has NEVER been a better and more talented season. This still brings tears to my eyes and gives me CHILLS

[@pegranger]

I have always been a fan of Fantasia. Fantasia you are special and with being said, trust in God with all your heart and he will bring it to pass. I pray and stand in the gap for you that no weapon formed against you shall prosper. You got to have a test to have a testimony. Always remember God is with you, for he promise that he would never leave you or forsake you. Love you Tasia

[@michgee]

She has SUCH an amazing voice. I wish I was blessed with a voice like hers!

[@SuperEager30]

I have seen this video so many times, but I promise every time I watch it, it's like watching it for the very first time, I love her she is AWESOME in my book!!!!

[@taaytae01]

[@Bychance37]

She's so cute I love Fantasia, I met her once and she was the nicest most gentle woman. What you see on TV is exactly who she is. Love you Tasia!!!!!

[@unusualscandalous]

Wow, I can't believe I actually teared up. She's amazing. And, I love her new songs.

[@ibexy]

cant stop watching this since yesterday. Absolutely wonderful and inspirational.

[@coco2201]

Well Im blessed to hear this song. It was deffiently something that I needed to hear. The lyrics alone are just remarkable. But to put just a small beauty with a strong voice to back up those lyrics...well God does pack a punch in!

[@reaginmx]

[@sunysgrl]

I still get teary eyed every time I see this...wonderful performance.

[@melodies38]

Justone of the most powerful voices with great soul on this planet. I love this woman voice.

[@totalvicky]

@Skysthelimit212 ... I remember sitting on the sofa watching this and weeping, as the song progressed I stood up and cheered her on as she poured her soul out onto that stage. I had NEVER voted before but after hearing this ... I grabbed my phone and I texted for the full two hours as many times as I could. Fantasia is special and unique like a young Pati Labelle. She is the best thing that ever happened on American Idol.

[@kiagreat]

fantasia really deserve on what she has at this very moment...for the blessing..and more more blessing to come in his life...!

[@37tonya]

I love this song by Fantasia. She is such a awesome talent and she sings this song with such passion. I wish her the best.

[@dontjudgemeyet]

This performance bought tears to my eyes...lol all emotional.....THIS IS AMAZING

[@TheMikeShapiro]

Folks, on the youtubes of every awesome singer you can find someone trying to tear them down. Why give petty haters so much attention??? Fantasia has something special that touches ones spirit, more than just that brilliant voice. I am going to see her in a couple of weeks in "Color Purple" out here in LA. Much love!

[@travelchristie]

I cried the whole time!.... She's a Super Star!!! Luv you Fantasia!

[@niswdavt]

Oooo. Goosebumps AGAIN! EVERY time I watch this, it's just amazing.

[@Johannemanuel01]

Glória a Deus! sua voc é muito Linda e potente. Parabéens Fantasia Barrino. Pela sua interpretação, dá pra ver que voc é muito simples...Voc é muito abençoada...

[@musicteachjw]

Fantasia still performs. You have to listen to urban contemporary or R & B stations to hear her. She still has a huge following in the R & B market. We love her and will support her.

[@dnlslwyn]

Congrads on the Grammy, and by watching you all these yrs, Im sure you will do a Grammy Concert, and cant wait, you are only arriving to that place where God is calling you where ever He leads you will be for His good! Congrads

[@Beautiful-Soul]
