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.

[@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!!!

[@the1atcpc]

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

[@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..

[@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

[@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!

[@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.

[@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!

[@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]

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!

[@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.

[@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!

[@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.

[@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.

[@AgentAO7]

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

[@notabadguy06]

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

[@teerairan1]

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

[@iamsydir]

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

[@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.

[@SaxyBoy91]

there was SO much passion in that performance

[@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!!!

[@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!

[@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!

[@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.

[@wanellin]

One of the greatest moments in American Idol history.

[@foreversoulful]

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

[@AntonioDudleyOfficial]

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

[@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.

[@dreRNME]

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

[@jwilliams8439]

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

[@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.

[@geekoftheweek27]

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

[@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!!!

[@Life_of_A_Man]

People People People...It doesn't matter who sung it better FANTASIA or CHARICE. Just know that it was FANTASIA'S moment that night...She put so much soul in this song!!! Charice also did good but this is FANTASIA'S testimony on how she got through all the negativity that was directed toward her.

[@japee5]

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

[@RondaRoyal19]

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

[@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!!

[@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.

[@plpblack]

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

[@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

[@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.

[@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.

[@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...

[@nemcneil]

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

[@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

[@marshaburdis4983]

The BEST EVER 2024

[@bjthoms85]

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

[@Elodie830]

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

[@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.

[@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!

[@XOANTY]

FANTASIA IS THE BEST AMERICAN IDOL BY A CLEAR MILE! The prime example of a beautiful person, incredible vocals and brilliance for DAYS

[@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.

[@MrLuigiable]

FANTASIA JUST WON HER FIRST GRAMMY AWARD FOR BEST FEMALE R&B VOCAL!!!!!! IT'S BEEN 7 LOOOOOONG YEARS. CONGRATS FANTASIA!!!!! #TEAMFANTASIA

[@anniya09]

My cousin know she did her thang on this song. Keep your head up and always put God first. Love ya!!!!

[@Yamamiao]

286 people are deaf. :| This is one of the most inspiring songs sung by an even more inspiring singer. More power to Fantasia!

[@tyonebeeman6121]

YOU COULD FEEL IT . THE SONG WAS MAD FOR HER AND SHE ROCK IT❤❤❤

[@cinsco53]

Fantasia is the best african american contestant Amer Idol ever had in the US. What I would like to see is another one of her caliber. She ruled that season.

[@livelife409]

WOW. THAT.....im blown away..my comment prolly does not matter amongst hundreds and hundreds of others..but right now..at this moment. i started believing . THANK YOU>...TALK ABOUT GOOSEBUMPS!!!!

[@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!!!!!

[@patybrenner]

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

[@fobt90]

She appeared to be a big artist in this performance. Sensational!

[@teammmx]

This is the best American Idol song to date. Incredible!!! song. Makes me cry every time. When I cry, you know it's good.

[@taaytae01]

[@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

[@JasonVaysberg]

The first time I heard this, I had so many goosebumps that I literally was shaking. She is truly amazing.

[@deshannenicole]

I can't get enough of seeing this b/c Fantasia tore it up. In a good way. Randy couldn't say anything but brilliant. And it was!

[@sarahjndonovan]

She is so amazing! That performance was epic!

[@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

[@2sexy4self]

I remember screaming like an idiot when she won, my mom came running in she thought I was being attacked or something. I was just so freaking happy. I am proud to be her fan, I bought her first CD!

[@SaxyBoy91]

i love everything about this performance. this girl was not messing around

[@soso5288]

Tasia , is a gr8 musicisan, sweet person and ppl lets keep on supporting our sista, she needs its...Proud of her for finishing high school, Well done Sista!!!

[@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.

[@jaaeelwatson3258]

Shes was a young lady with all that talent.... N she understood the assignment. God bless you Tasia i love you

[@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!

[@tinytwin29]

Broke the replay button...best performance ever

[@Shondah]

this song was so written for her!!! You Go Girl!!!

[@redhouseportugal]

absolutely the best this programme has ever produced! perhaps not the best voice naturally, but lets remember billie holiday, what this girl can do is just pure feel! and that´s what it is all about!!!!!!!!

[@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!!!!

[@michgee]

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

[@travelchristie]

[@unusualscandalous]

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