I keep coming back, what a performance.
Me too.She's has the best voice tecnique i've ever heard. Waiting anxiously :)
Jack A me too! And we’re in 2017 almost 2018 and I always come hear her in this performance
6 years later I still come back to this performance.
same girl.. same girl.. and GOD DAMN IT.. really is one of the best auditions of all time!!
She's got to be one of the very best singers to ever audition for any of these shows!
there you go, I added one more "like".
Well, if Carly isn't the best audition on any of these shows, then I'd say she has to be in the Top 5. Now, I haven't seen ALL the auditions on ALL of these type of shows, but I have seen a lot of the "BEST" from around the world. There are some amazingly talented people out there. Now, they pretty much gave her "full time" to sing her song. But in most cases the person has 1 minute!! So the song is cut down. But amazing auditions that I've seen......
Jonathan and Charlotte - Britain's Got Talent, a few years ago.
Sam Bailey (woman) - X Factor UK 2013, she won. She had it won from day one.
Amelia Lily (16) - X factor UK 2011, singing Janis Joplin's "Pieces of My Heart", she came in 3rd.
Shiane Hawke, 14 years old, X Factor Australia 2012, singing "Mercy" by "Duffy", better than Duffy did the original.
There was this Chinese man and woman on a Chinese singing show "The Voice" or something. Now the man sang well, but the gal was unbelievable!! and beautiful too!!
There was this 22 year old South Korean laborer guy who auditioned on Korean singing show.
There are so many. Too many to recall at this moment. Look for video clips in here "Best Auditions.........blah blah blah" and you'll find some amazing auditions.
As for Carly, there is a video of all of her performance on X Factor, in youtube here. That is a very nice watch.
aspenrebel Yes, I know of Sam Bailey. Her duet with Nicole Sherzinger (sp?) was simply astonishing. The best performance I've ever seen.
I followed X Factor UK this year and was surprised that Fleur East didn't win, but am happy for Ben Haenow.
Btw, 'aspenrebel' - are you from Aspen? Just curious. Cheers!
Matt Robinson Yeah, Nicole can SING!! She is GORGEOUS!! Well I'd say that it was 50/50 between Ben and Fleur, Ben probably got 50+1 and Fleur 50-1 votes. I didn't like her at the beginning. Her audition wasn't great, and after that either. She's 27, but she came out like she was still 18 singing in 4 girl group like she was 9 years before when she was on the show. Then at Simon's Judge's HOuse, she "broke out". Simon said to the gal assisting him "I don't even remember her". Then she gave a more mature and sophisticated performance. She grew on the show. Ben has that unique way of singing, like he has this tiny little reverb machine at the back of his throat. He grew too, got more confident, more settled with himself. So I'd say it was 50/50. However.....Lola was my pick, my gal. But she was just so scared and nervous. There were some others who should have been there too, but weren't. Can't think of their names now. But I miss "Blonde Electra" and "Only the Young". hee hee hee. But both Ben and Fleur are shocked that they were final two, so Ben must be going nuts now. No more driving a delivery van for him, I guess, huh?
Also, check out Niki Evans, from several years ago, her performance of "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Amazing.
No, I am not from Aspen, I'm in Boston.
But some of those other people, auditions, their clips are off to the right here, check them out.
aspenrebel Very cool. Mark and Donnie Wahlberg are from Boston right? They have both become great actors in my opinion. I loved Donnie in Band of Brothers - I'm a bit of a WWII buff. Thoughts on the New Kids reunion? Are you a fan?
As far as X Factor UK, my man is still Stevi Ritchie!!! :)
I'm in Oklahoma. I enjoy learning where folks are from. Its fascinating to me.
I've heard this song sung by at least 25 singers --but never as good as her. She should have won. Who and where is the winner? Sad. This child rocks the hell out of this song and Nina Simone would be proud. winner!
Tate Stevens won. He was an older man, country singer I think, but I haven't bothered to listen to any of his performances, so I can't comment on how good he is or isn't. This was 2 years ago, I believe, so where he is now, I don't know. Look him up. I listened to Nina Simone sing this from 1965. In my opinion she should be embarrassed and ashamed of her performance compared with Carly's performance here in this video. I'll compare it to the difference between Bruce Springsteen singing his original version of his song he wrote, "Blinded By The Light" and the version done by "Manfred Mann" (the one we all know). The difference between Day and Night!!!
aspenrebel Tate sucked. too bad.Who can compare w/ Nina? No one. But she'd LOOOVE Carly--b/c Carly has a unique stye that no one has. And she is amazeballs~.
aspenrebel I believe 8 or 9 months after Tate Steven won, the record label dropped him because of piss poor sales. He was a mediocre singer at best, and never deserved to win. But shows like X Factor are a popularity contest, not a talent competition.
Kaela Ann Curry ALL SHOWS are a Popularity Contest.....DUH.....why do you think that you've only heard of only a FEW American Idol winners. Believe me I bet Carly also got some kind of "Contract" too...but hey...there are over 350 million people in this country and probably "AT LEAST" a third have a good/great singing voice....but if you dont come up with that right song at the right time then you are DONE.!!!!...In my Opinion the "RIGHT PERSON" won...America spoke and said so.
Still pissed she didn't fucking win. She's a gift from god
+Demi Lovato im pretty sure she was second and then fifth harmony was third
I love where Simon is like you have 10 seconds to prove to me thats you singing and she says, " Acapella? Ok " and then sings it even cleaner then the first time.
Simon: " ok then you are not 13 "
Carly: " i have my birth certificate! "
lol great banter that should not have been edited out by the video producers
To be fair, she was actually a Broadway actor that was scouted for the show. They actually invited her on. And, she should've won. She was better than the country guy that won.
I’m shocked that this girl didn’t go big! This is the best audition I’ve ever seen.
@@RichardKennedy-m5wI don't think that she crashed and burned. I heard her fairly recently. Watched her in a video. She just seemed to be singing weird songs in a weird way. With her brother, or some male, playing guitar. I dunno, Maybe she just keeps trying to do original songs and doesn't want to do other people's songs.
But definitely one of my top favorites of any first audition singing on any of these shows..
She actually came out and said that she and her parents were approached by britney spears then manager Larry Rudolph to "turn her into a star" but she said that larry insisted they "hand her over to him". Her and her parents refused and she did her own thing.
I have watched this an unhealthy amount of times
the fact that she completely slayed all her competition with a simple audition
I believe Carly Rose could have been the biggest talent of this generation. She was robbed!
I may have watched this 100 times and its still amazing to me.
The modulations that she uses are skillful and impressive and also make this performance a pleasure to listen to.
One of the best auditions EVER! I come back to it every now and then. This girl was phenomenon and she should have won back then but unfortunately she didn't nor did she get the recognition she deserved when the show was over. I still remember that season as if it was yesterday. This show introduced us to so many great talents.
She is quite frankly one of the best female vocalist on earth. After all these years I am still amazed when I hear her sing. Special talent.
Exactly, she truly is one of the very few rare people on earth who truly have been blessed with the special gift of singing absolutely perfectly with confidence, control, soul, and charisma with zero flaws. Truly remarkable, and wow at 13 singing like that… I am speechless
And the thing is... all the people here on UA-cam aren't even getting the full impact. Not only does this girl sing very well... she's also incredibly loud, very strong vocals. I think she's gonna wreck some microphones in her career...
I was there for this in the audience, I'm so glad the full audition finally came out where they had her do it acapella!! She should have won.
Her audition is Very Addicting. I do not know of any other media which so vividly shows a person exceeding their own wildest expectations . . . and, when she does.. I have Never seen someone SHINE like that. That smile, she is Beaming with the most Beauty Full Glow that God allows one to wear. I have watched it countless times. It is truly rare and wonderful. She is so awesome.... Thank You Carly Rose.
I put this in the category of Buster Douglas, Kerri Strug, and Jeremy Lin in 'Greatest seizing the big-stage moment' auditions.
This never gets old to watch, such a wonderful audition
I've watched the "got talent' shows from pretty much all the countries, Australia, USA, Britain, India, France, Japan, China, Europe, everywhere, along with American Idol, and the Xfactor shows, and I haven't seen anyone with a one-time performance like this. I keep coming back to it, because it is so remarkable for a person of 13 years old. Simon is so right where he says a star as walked out on that stage.
Jack A THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!! Someone who can recognize, hear, and appreciate true raw singing talent. I keep coming back to it too. It cracks me up everytime the black man judge throws up his hands and says "WHAT?". But you might want to watch the very first one of these videos I ever saw on here (cuz I never watched these shows before, but I do now), Shiane Hawke, X Factor Oz 2012 maybe??? She was only 14. A complete shock, that voice coming out of that person. Do they really have "India Got Talent"? I've seen some surprises on those China shows. Have you seen the one, a guy and a gal. The guy is kinda of goofy looking, but the gal is beautiful!! And they sing incredibly and play instruments. Then in another video, they are joined by another guy? But the gal has a beautiful voice.
This might be my hundredth time :) :) "feeling good" to know that its not just me!
aspenrebel I like to watch the Voice KIds from different countries and there are some amazing singers at 10 and 12 years old.
+Dhanish Mohan OK, so now that makes 3 of us who can appreciate the true singing talent of Carly Rose, and the best version of "Feeling Good" ever sung by anyone ever. Also check out Carly Rose when she sang "Feeling Good" again, in the Finals of this X Factor USA 2012. She is such an intelligent professional singer, that she changed it up a bit from how she sang it here in her audition. She should have won, but she came in second cuz all viewers voting fell for the sad story of that middle aged country singer guy (whose career has gone nowhere from what I understand).
aspenrebel exactly, I feel he cheated or was crying for the people to vote for him by giving that sob story. You don’t win by making people feel sorry for you, he should have been disqualified for unsportsmanlike behavior
Blew me away. Left me breathless. Such maturity as a performer for someone so young, too!
I still think that She deserved to win X factor ! She was the best in the competition and i don't understand why she didn't win ! Grrrr !!!
Totally agree I am In the south as well .Drives me bonkers. They will vote for the "country " singer no matter what
She lost because Rimes was drunk and messed her up on her final song.
i would hate to have to audition after her
+Aspen Truman You would have hated to have auditioned after Carly Rose, before her, any time around her. Cuz you would have lost!!!
Well the only reason Carly Rose came in 2nd was .... 1) the guy who won was a middle aged journeyman hack country singer who gave a sob story about how he quite his job and had a wife and kidx to support. After win his career djd nothing cuz he is just lime a 1000 others. 2) Leann Rimes screwed Carly Rose o er during their duet. 3) the viewers/voters probsbly figured she is just 13, too young to win, she has her who,e life ahead of her. ...... the guy who won was not that hood. IMO
exactly, she sang way better than LeAnn rimes, and the guy that won did nothing after, America just felt bad and believed a 13 year old didnt deserved to win.
Something that proves she's amazing.... she auditioned 2012 and we are still talking about her. And I am STILL cheering for her over 1,000 miles away. And... I miss her. The X Factor needs you. And we miss you and support you. We love you!
This girls gives me goosebumps every time I hear her sing. I love it!
1:49 her dad never heard her sing before lol
+PONZI bullshit, look her up dude, she's ben on broadway since she was an toddler
+PONZI well, he was seeing his daughter do something quite amazing. I love his reaction
+Jaclyn Sloan Exactly!! His reaction was to the crowd going crazy right at that moment.
She’s 13 years old hear and nearly those many years have passed since this performance. Mind/boggling. Well done.
Omg she has a beautiful voice! She is really really good!!!!!! Amazing.
Omg i watched this like a thousand times and I'm still loving it
Wow and wow again. Simply amazing. Her version of "Feeling Good" is fantastic. She made the song her own.
The contestants in the room were like:"we're fucked"
+нυssαɪи нυᴊαɪяɪ Best comment I've seen in relation to this performance lol!
I still love you Carly Rose & still watch this audition!!!! Wow, You're Amazing.Super Star!!!!!😊😚😙😃😘😄😍😉😁❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I am STILL watching this! What a beautiful voice! She is like a reincarnation of Judy Garland; the little girl with a woman's voice. God Bless Carly and may I please hear her to go on to be a singing STAR.
2023. Still love her audition. She’s a winner!!❤❤❤❤❤❤
I remember watching this, it blew me away. And i'm a 50 year old rock and roll junkie. lol
I hate this music, but talent is what it is. Hands down amazing, and the real XFactor winner.
The world is yours.
Her confidence at 13 is just insane!!!.. has to be up there in the top 5 best 1st auditions EVER!!! 👏👏👏
This has to be the feel good video of all time!
From skepticism to shock and disbelief as this little dynamo captivates the entire audience with a single phrase "Birds Flying High"... she keeps kicking it up a notch, whipping the audience into a screaming frenzy with her stage presence and incredible voice using a cappella, scats, a key change and even bending the note at the end on the word Gooooooood… seeing her soar is an inspiration and proof that all things are possible. Thank you Carly!
She should have won.
She just didn't get enough votes. I don't think Leann Rimes had a thing to do with it. With these shows it's mostly just a popularity contest.
yeah, but hey, britney also got 2nd place when she was on a contest like this when she was little and look at her now. The boy that won disappeared into obscurity.
Yes, that's what I'm saying. It's mostly just a popularity contest. The best doesn't always win. Also, look at Jennifer Hudson. I don't think she even made it to the top 5.
10 years later and still the best audition
Although I continue to think that she is absolutely amazing in her performances, the things that I enjoy seeing the most is the looks and expressions from her parents. Such Love and Joy in the pride they feel for their Daughter. Also, from what I have seen on several other videos of her, the involvement she is doing with the StarLight kids shows the type of character that her parents instilled in her. GREAT JOB!
LOVE THIS GIRL, BEST AUDITION EVER!!!!!!!
for anyone wondering why she doesn't have an album yet: she decided to finish school in case the music industry didn't work out for her. she has been recording in the studio for her album when she has the time but ultimately wants to focus on school. she will be releasing an album soon though.
Thank you so much for posting this video. I've seen the unedited version a few times and having the uncensored version made this video so much more amazing.
Im addicted to this video i watch it over and over again
i cant belive it after all this years i still coming in here to listen carly rose and evreytime somehow she charged me back after a long day .
Simon: just give me ten seconds I want you to prove it to me I want to hear that again
Carly: acapella?
Simon: yep
Carly: kay
been watching this for years. nothing else was as good as her voice and beautiful personality with charisma ❤️
Simon : Carly, let me tell you, You're not 13 years old.
Carly : I have a birth certificate.
Oh gosh, I love this line!
Love you Carly.
Amongst the best things I have ever heard...and, at 61, I have, thankfully, heard many good singers.
I started watching in 2016 and still watch this now and then OMG
Carly was and still is the best that has ever been on that show!!!!!!!!!!!
That audio. What a great find and a well done job. Thanks!
I play this every now and then. She just lifts my spirits. I love the whole magical moment. Thank you and your parents for all the joy you bring to millions! Hope you and your family are fine and well. You are loved and prayed over by many...much needed in such a brutal profession. God bless***
She is absolutely beautiful, best audition ever!
Still just as impressed as I was when I saw it live 11 years ago! Phenomenal!! The talent, poise, personality, charisma. Wow! Unforgettable!!
This is my favorite audition of all time
This is the very best audition that I've heard of all the shows. I always come back to this video. Simply amazing! It's almost as if she is the original singer of this song. Wow!!!
how Carly Rae Jepsen thought of her song: *goes to UA-cam to look up herself* *types Carly R* "hold up who's Carly Rose Sonenclair??" *clicks video* - Simon: "I really really really like you." her: YOOOO
wow Carly sure surprised everyone especially the judges with her powerful soulful voice? She derseved the standing ovation from everybody!! Britney called her a little "DIVA"! L.A. said your soul is old! Demi said she's "OBSESSED" and Simon said that wasn't her singing... Everybody loved her....
Carly Rose Sonenclar shall always be remembered as that "Little Ms. Thang Diva" who blew the f-ing roof off of that arena!!! Out of all the talent shows combined, she is my absolute favourite.
I've never heard the uncut comments before. Thank you for uploading!
She should have won hands down. What a injustice!
1 of the best voice's in the universe!!!
Dont go to far now bro.. We all know who's the best voice in the universe:)
Aaaaah I'm in love wid her voice ....God Gifted...:)
The judges looked like they were underestimating when she said what song she chose. Then she sang and shocked them all😍❤️
thanks for this full version . shows her personality better .and yeah I still think she got robbed
Love watching Carly rose perform, she's awesome, gifted to the TEE... You Go Carly.... You should've won damn it.... Miss Thing is a little Diva...
Why isn't she mega famous?
Actually she was already a child actress and singer before she came on the show. Look her up. Extraordinary regardless!
She is very famous in Brazil and many other countries just not in USA
@@brookebruni7999 no shes just the best and she knows it, you can be as confident as you are good and she's on another level
This young lady is awe inspiring in her Gift of Musical Lyrics! I felt Honored to have shared in the beginning of her being recognized! Blessings Carly!
Omg! she is just so good! I love her voice!
Thanks for posting this full version! I’ve never seen this before. She is amazing!!
I have all her XF12 songs on CD in my car and her stage performances are as good or better than 99.9 % of singing contestants EVER . Most are better than studio standard .
A rare, great combination of sweetness of voice and talent. It is the 'sound of music'. An exquisite selection of the heavens. Follow your dreams. Sustain your competitive will.
2019 YOU STILL KICK IT ,NOTHING BUT RESPECT 4 U.
Carly Rose Sonenclar , that she has so amazing talent! WOW! I can't believe she sang the song like...that! even it was a difficult song to singers! She is young and amazing girl!
watching in 2016 and still amazed!!
The best audition I ever seen !!!! Thank you MS Sonenclar!!! Ms. THANG!!!!amazing!
I prefer Amira Willighagen's first audition, just 9 years old at the time
"I have a birth certificate" hahah she's just simply perfect
My goodness. Breathtaking!! I reacted to this. thank you!!
Amazing!!!!!!!!!! !!!!
2023 - Love her audition ❤
Should have received the golden buzzer!
This uncut version is special.
I haven't watched the x factor since she didn't win,she was amazing!
Still the best with this song today. No one can sing it like her. The energy is awesome! Surprise!!!
I listened to the Nina Simone version of this song and then this one started playing and was blown away. Great job and good luck!!
Watched this in 2013 and i keep coming back. I don't personally know her but im really proud of her :>
This is the uncut version so I don't know if they have all the video but they do have all the sound. She is just so Amazing I just cant get over the fact that she sings and sounds like an adult but she is just a child, wow. I cant wait for her album to come out.
This rendition is one of the best I've heard. The ending capped off an excellent performance. I hope she's still performing.
you know what i love? "acapella?" "yep" "kay" like its no big deal whatsoever. #masterful
Agree! I think that was actually the best part of her audition! So poised and - professional!
This is my favorite audition of all times in X-Factor history... Carly Rose will forever b in our hearts...
Those judges aren't even qualified to judge her. She should be judging them; she's more talented than all of them.
This is the Uncut version! The parts where "it's not playing right" are the edited parts that weren't aired during original broadcast! Demi saying she would win this contest easily should have been left in in my opinion! Her proving to Simon that that is indeed her real voice stole the show! Can't believe they cut that
you know your a boss when Simon stands up
Carly is just *AMAZING* her talent, even at 9 years is just so simply amazing it's almost hard to believe someone can be so talented at her age. It's a great pleasure to watch and she continues to be amazing. There is - *NO* - *QUESTION* - she should have won X Factor! Doesn't matter though, she is well off regardless! ❤❤❤
Best audition ever. I keep coming back to watch it after all these years, idk it gives me chills.
This is almost just the same as what I was going to post.
Me too !!
Pues ya somos 3 jajaja
Same!
Me too. It warms my heart so much. What a powerful young woman.
