I don’t want to live in a world without the sound of this young man’s voice in it.

[@johnjamison208]

I totally agree. This world a better place with him in it

[@kathleenwaldrup3146]

Exactly, me either! I just love him so much! I just can't hardly stop listening to him! Such a sweet young man, and such a beautiful voice!

[@TeeClark-vo9op]

You can hear the hurt and feel the pain it hurts , but I love it

[@teresitarousseau5217]

Good gracious, let me get an amen on that!

[@Asian-Hawaiian-Orian]

Dude. This man single handedly made American Idol relevant again. I know I personally didn't even know it was still around until Iam's audition vent viral instantly. Mahalo and congrats to this young man.

[@krbcan1]

He's only 18!? He sings with such maturity and emotion and control. Extremely talented and very likeable.

[@kareninman2865]

My grand children just lost their father ! U can be an encouragement to all of us!! They are ur age. And so broken 💔

[@user-qm4nq6qe4g]

*Loveable

[@mearip6116]

his voice can make a screaming baby fall off to sleep...honestly its like a voice that you play on radio at night and fall off to sleep if you want stress free

[@asinatefotu5436]

Agreed.

[@kauabarros9638]

Can make damn grown man turn to a little baby . Let him close his eyes leave him alone yah 🤙🏾👊🏽🤘🏽💯

[@villenafamily8211]

I know eyes open is about connecting with the audience etc but when he closes his eyes while he sings he sees his Dad, he can feel him hear his harmony … close your eyes and sing like an angel. Your voice is immaculate!!

[@sammyjo8109]

How many 18 year old's today listen to and appreciate Bonnie Raitt's voice? I hope Bonnie sees this

[@Jae-iq3rh]

Bonnie has seen IAM perform her song. AI would have to have gotten permission for IAM to sing her song 🎉❤

[@TennesseeYaya]

Pure raw talent and SOUL, and it’s REAL. He doesn’t try to be or sound like someone else. As someone else said, his voice is not of this world. And this world needs it now. I can’t wait to be able to buy his music. Iam the world is waiting! @wtongi

[@ryanjudkins8339]

Iam, this world needs you. We need your angelic voice. We need your example of loving your parents and realizing that family is the most important thing. Your voice touches our soul and brings a smile to my face. Thank you brother.

[@kawehionalani3957]

He’s not there for fame or fortune. He’s there to fulfill a promise to his dad. ❤ he’s so real, rubbah slippahs n all

[@warriorofgod1538]

I’ve said this before but, have never really meant it like I do now…. I can listen to Iam’s voice all day long, NO LIE. My heart swells and I feel like I can melt, his voice is so beautiful and soothing. I would love to see him win.❤

[@kauabarros9638]

Some can try their entire career and will never do what this young legend does

[@spiritsascending3751]

He's my pick to win #1. I'd be very surprised if he doesn't win. ❤

[@teresitarousseau5217]

Well he won and we gonna fly to the ends of the earth to see him. Before I lay my head down to rest eternal.❤❤

[@user-up3nl1xf1s]

I'm with you, I'm in my garage jamming on his songs.

[@IDGx214]

I rewatch idol preformances every day on my Google. Andi have them on my phone when I'm going to bed. I havent enjoyed music this much since I was a teenager 😌

[@anitahart5994]

His voice is AMAZING!!!! As far as I’m concerned if he needed to close his eyes to feel the song let him.🥰💗

[@tluangich5765]

00

[@sethrobbins34]

This dude just makes everyone silent. His voice is on another level.

[@ebaibrinsly3527]

There’s so much sincerity in his voice

[@maryjowilpolt1586]

I have several medical isues that cause chronic pain. I listen to Iam sing n it eases my pain. His voice n songs are soothing n healing to all. :-)

[@eshelmanfuailelagi5301]

Loving it go Iam

[@justchecknn]

He is therapy for my soul! 100% star that sings like an angel.

[@user-cs3zs6jn1d]

Dude is so down to earth he didn't even wear shoes for this.

[@dawncuadras3025]

Angels wear wings no need for shoes.

[@williamkinikini]

No need for shoes, if you are an angel

[@divinebalubar9786]

I was also in awe when I saw him barefooted. What a well grounded young man-angel indeed. Thank God for the gift of his person. @wtongi, thanks for sharing your gift, your faith, and your talent. Keep singing young man... I agree with others comment, the world needs healing and we need your shooting voice. God bless and your family. Am sure your dad is so glad and happy watching or even harmonizing with you everytime you perform. ❤❤❤

[@georgedazo58]

😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@georgedazo58]

Ya I’m Filipino my ppl wear SLIPPERS almost all the time.. Pacific Islanders & Asians Love DEM SLIPPERS.. Iam might be 1st & only to win a singing competition WEARING SLIPPERS.. He performed in the Finale & even sang w/ James Blunt on National TV wearing SLIPPERS.. IAM could autograph & sell his own brand of slippers 4REALZ 💯💪💯💪

[@noenn9895]

His voice just melts the soul.

[@minajosephine9603]

💯 agree

[@mindovermatter4u377]

Someone once said. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even toched. They must be felt with the heart every time you sing you touch the lives of countless people you don't even know You have a gift that is god given and your dad's legacy will live on through you your family and the music you make. I am rooting for you to win my friend. I know you got this God bless . Jas from UK

[@jayruu6567]

He’s got my vote 100%

[@kauabarros9638]

Shows over give him the win 🤙🏾🤘🏽💯

[@pixster78396]

I give him 10 votes weekly! Hope everyone else does too

[@mikeelmore9005]

I could listen to him sing all day long! He is only 18! Incredible!!!

[@kathleenwaldrup3146]

I just love this young man so much! I could listen to him all day long! He uplifts me, and others so much! He puts a smile on my face, and makes me want to get up, and dance! I love the Hawaii twist he puts on the songs! Such a sweet soul! Don't ever change, please! Love you Iam.❤😊

[@codytheoneandonly533]

He’s got an angelic voice I could listen to him for hours

[@Lilly-yq8mu]

Good advice given to Iam Clay, you are a marvellous singer as well, but please don't change the natural upbringing of this young man. He's a natural and untouched by the loud voices, he closes his eyes in a way that's different to others. He includes his audience cause his dad taught him how and it works.

[@kathleenwaldrup3146]

Exactly! He doesn't need any changes. He's perfect!

[@muhammadsolehan8145]

I watch every video over and over again. His voice so much soul in it every time he sing.

[@gloriacollington]

I go to bed every night listening to Iam beautiful voice

[@johndwyer346]

What a voice, a true Hawaiian treasure! Thank you for sharing your talent with the world and doing your part to making the world a better place with your music!

[@TannerHudman-vlogs]

I want to hear him sing somewhere over the rainbow!!! Would sound nothing short of AMAZING

[@MatthewZavada]

Watch the final of showstoppers

[@lauriecollins7312]

Thot same thing . Izzy . But both are very different also. Both very special! Wonder if sings any Hawaiian songs. Very gifted!! New generation.

[@kimingram7649]

If keeping your eyes closed to be able to feel and sing is fine. You have such a great talent! Go far on your journey! Your dad is very proud of you!! Never doubt that..

[@Rockywolf100]

God. When he said the voices inside your head, I broke down. I’ve never heard a voice remotely close to his. Iam, from the bottom of my heart thank you. Your voice really is breaking souls, but healing them too! We NEED you!!!!

[@elllekelly2215]

Hawaii Proud!! Amazing Voice!! Pure Talent ....The Real Deal!! 🎉❤👏

[@malafuk1]

I like to listen to his music all day because his voices is just amazing soul

[@joanie2535]

Iam close your eyes if you want. It doesn’t bother me. I know you’re feeling the song and hearing your dad. Your voice is wonderful with eyes closed or open. Seriously no one cares. We just love your voice!!! Just keep doing what is natural to you, because it’s perfection!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@GrayK3024]

Who the hell listens to Bonnie Rait these days? I know! An 18 year old named Iam Tongi. Beautiful voice. 💖

[@randylove]

Iam comes at a time we need him ,there's way to many problems in this country and Iam is the man who will make u forget those problems for awhile

[@kyul9357]

Makes our problems a little lighter because Iam is so relatable with his sorrows.

[@angieramos5205]

[@raphaelwheeler7833]

This man is once in a life time voice or once in a generation

[@melindasantos3256]

Chills and tears every time he plays and sings 😢😊 It's heartfelt so much soul and passion I can't wait to hear and see his next performances !♡

[@missmaryjjj2660]

Such a beautiful voice, coming from such a beautiful soul. I feel the words he sings so deep inside. I could listen to him all day and night!

[@matahenry3439]

See Katie's eyes slow blink at 2:26 - thats the business right there. His voice has that kind of power.

[@16paws]

We love you Iam, and your Daddy is so so PROUD of you, god bless you and your whole ohana🙏🏼♥️🤙🏼

[@zironcat5265]

His voice is the explanation of why the "feeling" in a guitar is the vibrato, it just falls right in the place at the right time to make one hell of a catarctic experience

[@whitneycaldwell8266]

I love that Iam stuck to what makes him comfortable. I enjoy clay but I didn't feel that advice was the best advice to give to Iam. Everything about his performances touches in a deeply connected way to the audience. I wouldn't change a thing! I adore this kid... ❤️

[@stellakaramol9085]

Now that’s the next American Idol 🌟❤️

[@Rudemotivated]

His voice just melt the soul

[@LuisCarlosMartinez-bb9gs]

Win or lose I would buy his music.......better than the stuff on the radio right now......Kahuku Hawaii boy....i worked at Kahuku High School and Tongi would walk around the school with his Guitar. Heard him play and sing for his friends......nice boy

[@janeliza8286]

Just perfect!!❤

[@aronbennett1914]

Clay, you may have needed to do that but this Dude is far above your talent and it doesn't matter who or what or nothing he looks at because he will walk away a SUPERSTAR......

[@debbiebeaulieu6787]

Agree 💯

[@HazelJuanitaMillanHoffman]

Not true, Clay is so talented and he's teaching him. There is never a good reason to tear one person down to build another up. That is simply being a bully. I cheer both of these men on with the talent God gave them.

[@user-dp9cx7yd7z]
