Kimberley Locke singing somewhere over the Rainbow

[@stratboy518]

Love the low note at 1:12. Troubles melt “like” lemon drops. Covid watching in Hawaii 6/3/21 😷🤙🏼

[@crazyasianman07]

She's beautiful & also her voice. It goes without saying. & very classy. Her mannerisms & the way she speaks. I like her lol

[@crazyasianman07]

sboudreaux27 That’s what I said she is classy. I would say maybe like Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, & David Archuleta. Those are my top 3 people who I thought maintained their fame.

[@joelygibson1561]

She has a rich voice....deep and effortless charm!

[@elisefincher4478]

I'm in love with kimberley lockes voice. I was super upset she didn't win. she was my favorite.

[@mdiggs6365]

The moment I fell in love was this performance

[@iLolz19]

How much do we all appreciate this ORIGINAL, CLASSIC, VINTAGE American Idol videos?!?!?! THIS is why i became the number one show for seven years straight! SOLID entertainment.

[@Anthony-go3er]

Kimberly was absolutely the best out of anyone in the top 12 she was robbed she should have won she knocked the ball out of the park she is always known for singing Somewhere over the Rainbow 🌈 judy garland would have been so proud of Kimberly she is such a unbelievable singer and chef ! Absolutely loved Kim Caldwell Carmen R and Treynce ❤

[@AntonioDudleyOfficial]

She sang this so effortlessly!

[@iLolz19]

UGHHHH! I love these videos so much. This is one of the best American Idol performances ever. In love.

[@v.lightbulbakaracheldoleza1536]

Absolutely!!!

[@twinkie19842000]

The best ive heard of this song always brings tears

[@jaceambition7701]

Ashanti P You gotta year a Patti Labelle live version!!! IJS!!

[@ramonsobreiro]

Those vocals! 👏👏👏👏

[@brianfitzpatrick2581]

That's the best version of that song that's ever been sung. If u can top that, show me. And she does the best version of The Star-Spangled Banner that I've ever seen. I don't know how she didn't become a huge star.

[@crystalv6122]

Seriously best I’ve heard too. Not one version I’ve heard comes close.

[@thewordsmith1000]

Love her voice

[@PYT923]

you go girl!! Classic...timeless song

[@v.lightbulbakaracheldoleza1536]

Love you KIM!!! Best rendition of this song EVER!!! 💜💜

[@TheRaymarch]

I miss her so much...

[@JordanSmith-bp1cf]

WOW, KIMBERLEY LOCKE HAS A BEAUTIFUL SINGING VOICE LIKE SHE GO TO CHURCH

[@alexanderpytko5394]

I know so many people said Simon was an ass and said he has no business judging the show because he's not a singer. No, he's not a singer, he's a music executive and producer. He's the kind of person that a singer ends up working for and executives and producers DO talk to singers like that when singers are trying to cut albums. They push singers to be at they're best. People like Simon won't settle for anything less than 100% and you know why? Because they know that audiences and people who buy the albums won't settle for anything less, either. I mean would you settle for just "ok" or for "at best"? Simon also wanted the contestants to get used to this kind of feedback because he knew that the winner of the competition, and maybe the runners up, would be hearing this kind feedback day and night. Being a singer isn't always glamorous, it's also hard work. Singers spend a lot of grueling days and sleepless nights cutting albums or sometimes trying to get just 1 song to sound perfect. Plus, they spend a lot of time on the road doing concerts and rehearsing them.

[@Piggy_Piggerson]

I LOVE HER.

[@godschildyes]

LOL GO KIM! So pretty sis!

[@Ezr1987]

Man O Man I had a huuuuuuuuuuuuge crush on Kimberley after that performance. Funny thing about it is around thecsame time I met ex-girlfriend and she looked just like her. LOL AAAH 2003

[@heymrrivers]

I miss this idol :(

[@lapislazuli5035]

Oh man, I still have a huge crush on Kimberly.

[@alexanderpytko5394]

I always enjoyed Simon's brutal honesty. It's not just the singing, you have to be well loved by the people. That's one reason why Simon liked Carrie Underwood so much, she was a great singer and she was really loved by the public.

[@swolf4741]

Not a good example. Carrie was dull and dry during her time on Idol. Total lack of personality. She is the way she is now courtesy of the Hollywood machine, the music industry, and toning up while dropping 10-15 pounds. Dont get me wrong. It was a good thing for Carrie.

[@rosbrownsugar1]

I love this!!

[@MrBlactye]

Kimberley I would love to see work with Baby face and Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis

[@DarleneQ-s1g]

❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉

[@singolominustirith5189]

I guess Ruben lights up a room. I can't tell on screen how she is only a 4 and a half. She proves later what she can do when it's the audience that judges to get her the no. 3 spot.

[@sleepingbeauty2010]

She can sing like hell. :)

[@bjdm3089]

Wow, I loved Kimberley but I do NOT remember Randy and Paula standing up for her, and so early! Cool, she was great

[@luizh]

You Go K-Lo, Brilhant!

[@melissarozema2013]

Good job

[@leeleybanna6126]

[@2taggs2]

Ryan is looking soooo 2003 here

[@tsomidou56]

best attack on AI history hahaha

[@christinabc391]

Vonzell Solomon followed me later, it was shocking for me too :D

[@LeeonDeeon]

Is she the first one to make criticizing, joking remarks to Simon???

[@melissarozema2013]

Don't mess with kimberly

[@Ezr1987]

*the same time

[@angelsublime]

I do like her but something's missing about her voice.I need more, high notes, runs, melismas...Kelly Clarkson is way better I guess 😊😍

[@bd3825]

Kelly Clarkson can hit the notes, but when it comes down to tone Kimblerley wins. It's like Pattie Labelle and Diana Ross.

[@tushae88]

👍🏽

[@Piggy_Piggerson]

I’m a fan of vocal gymnastics / Mariah-isms too but some singers really do not need to do this to sell a song. I thought Kim sang this song amazingly just with the basic melody.

[@ChaelyneNakila]
