Hey there! Thanks so much for the reaction! Iam and I chose each other! We have a lot of similarities in common, from background (I’m actually 25% Filipino, so I’ve got some Pacific Islander blood) to musical styles and choices. It was an honor having him as a duet partner, and I view him as a little brother for life at this point. ❤

[@jassilas8168]

OMG!!! You were Amazing big brother for Iam! Just lost my brother lost two weeks again and another brother four years ago and my Dad five years ago.. I’m the oldest now and life’s been so hard but yea listening to you both has healed me day by day. Love you both so much!

[@rachellykles5602]

Hi guys, Love your reactions. Hi Oliver. Rachel here watching from Australia. I have to be honest I've come across your reaction vids cause I follow Iam, fell in love with his heart an him from his audition. I cried my eyes out touched more cause I had just lost my son. But Oliver I hope it's not a choice between you guys because I think your amazing too... Just want to wish you both the best on your journey! ❤

[@Twopenny01]

Oliver love your compAssion and guidance you gave Iam. He needs a big bro to support him. Your doing an awesome job. I love your vibe and talent your going all the way to the top.

[@Tremor1975]

That was an extremely compassionate thing you did there,,, a true "sportsman" for lack of a better word. We NEED this performance out as a single,,, ANYWHERE !!! Awesome job, as a musician, and human being!!💙

[@itskaia3514]

You both are my favorite.want the both of you to win.luv you too Oliver.All the way from Antigua

[@justinm.1]

I still get chills & teary-eyed every time I watch this specific performance

[@carinalindberg7377]

I loved this duet. You should check out Oliver's audition too as well as his first performance. He's really good. The way he supported Iam through this was beautiful and they sound amazing together. Iam's voice, though, it's just speaking directly to my soul every time he sings.

[@tonyhao9344]

I am Team IAM, he would sing and harmonize with his dad all the time, no wonder they sounded so great together. Iam was doing the high harmony, very difficult especially when you factor in the sudden guitar switch and emotions. The other guy did a great job, and was very supportive. They should Both advance IMHO.. Glad you guys reacted to this. I am following his journey through YT, since I am in New Zealand and don't get this.. I wish I could see one of his videos that doesn't make my eyes leak though.. 😢

[@JodyY808]

For the duets, they get to choose their partner. In the past, they had to work on a team, but that led to a lot of conflicts and wasn't really helpful in determining who should go and who should stay because they had to agree on a song, work on the parts and choreography, and try to make sure each person could shine yet all work well together. In just one night! The partners are the same, but less stressful. Still it's hard to memorize the lyrics in one night if you didn't really know the song to begin with. Iam is used to harmonizing because he often sang with his Dad. He says he hears and feels his Dad beside him harmonizing as they used to. The duets are not in competition with each other. The judges don't give any comments and just decide whether each contestant goes home or moves on. Oliver Steele and Iam Tongi are both popular favorites.

[@Tremor1975]

That was just BEAUTIFUL!!!! How come EVERY great song/performance SEEMS too short??? These guys should record the full length version,,, it would be great!!!

[@laureltaylor4535]

They are both so good. They sound great together. The two best in the show.

[@twilyumz]

He said they fixed his guitar!!!

[@NickThaQuick224]

Enjoying your Idol reactions. The contestants picked their own partners

[@ImMadMaxxx]

I thought they were amazing pairing with one another.. And another tear jerker for sure. They should tour together.. It's like a new age Simon and Garfunkel... My favorite two on the show!😁

[@JuanLopez-tp7hj]

I’m from windward Oahu too so of course I watched I know he was singing save your tears but I just couldn’t hold mine back

[@fatafehisuka6586]

He’s still fragile at just 18

[@debbiebeaulieu6787]

Iam Tongi 💯 Super Star 🌟

[@twilyumz]

It’s so sad that there is a channel impersonating Iam. I’ve been commenting on as many posts as I can letting his subscribers know that. He posted on Facebook about this imposter. I loved this duet. Watching it over and over on Hulu. There’s no extra stuff needed in this song, just Oliver and Iam.

[@LisaD-1969]

What channel is impersonating him? That’s terrible. I love Iam!

[@carinalindberg7377]

​@@LisaD-1969 Specifically the one called IAM TONGI, but there is what a channel called Wtongi (with capital W). Iam's channel is called wtongi (all lower cases). His thumbnail is of his family. There's a video on his channel where he talks about this. The imposter channel is making money of stealing Iam's videos from various social media accounts. Many of us have reported it repeatedly. It changed names for awhile, but then changed it back to IAM TONGI.

[@l0labasyang]

He’s just a kid!😢 Good thing Oliver is there to support iam! Outstanding performance

[@jonahdouglass3905]

You should definitely check out Iam’s duet partner as well, Oliver Steele audition. He is amazing as well!

[@Daymon908]

Him and Ian need to tour no matter how far they go… they are both amazing together and it was by far no their best

Iam used to do duets with his dad all the time

[@lisan3024]

They both went through

[@Twopenny01]

Love your guys reactions very touching keep them coming

[@encydear5693]

I'm glad that they both made it to the next round 😊

[@berniehand5528]

I don't know who is better, but oliver has a great voice and can give a bit of raspiness with it. Iam is young and has a IZ voice. They are a great as a duet.

[@dianeritthaler7792]

Oliver helped him through it which was very cool of him. They both did a great job ❤🎉

[@bigdaddy6461]

Love your reaction!!! Great duet 👌 👏 👍

[@anthonyarrjay3]

Iamtongi has a pure beautiful soul and heart and his tears tell a thousand stories and his heart is still in pain and heartache from losing his dad. ❤ great video

[@TheZacheryMantis]

You make a stunning pair. It's impressive that one of you can express your perspective without sparking any conflicts. The fact that you both share a common view is wonderful. Sending love to both of you. Also, great response to the "GOAT" IAM.

[@TheZacheryMantis]

At this very moment, I am truly embodying my authentic self. It's undeniable that IAM possesses an extraordinary talent for reviving even the most overlooked classics, injecting them with a new sense of vitality. This captivating and gifted individual is single-handedly restoring the long-lost soul of music.

[@rj4159]

couldn't get past the nips....anyway...hot.........Iam Tongo for the win!! He has already won no matter what happens..
