Lukas did of course his own version u might say, and it was cool. But Magni hit all the notes, and when the high pitch came he did it way better than even Thom Yorke did, and that´s no lie!
david cook is amazing on this song. He rocked it out a bit from the original, but I like the tone of his lower register. This guy is pretty good too but he clips the words sometimes.
true, i sometimes think it would be a greater price to start a band with the guys in the houseband than with a few oldschoolers that honestly arent as good as the houseband.
Idol is a fucking joke, a disgrace to all genuine musiclovers out there and Magni sure as hell proves that REAL singers wouldnt set foot on an idol-stage, hope he'll have a longlasting and awesome carreer, he deserves it.
It's sorry that non of you mentioned Radiohead's Genius for having made this song for all who do not comprehend their music. Now I understand why Thom decided to stop performing this song live. At least watch it being performed well (Radiohead - Creep Live (Astoria))
Was this his last song after he lost and before he was off the show? seems like a song that you would want to play last to have people feeling sorry as shit. I feel so guilty that I loved this cover, THE EMOTION, the fucking stage presence, its amazing to have that when it isnt even your damn song!
Magni's still playing and performing lots in Iceland and occasionally some shows in North America as well, he ROCKED a couple of shows in Toronto a few weeks back that were really fun too, click me for tons of video from the two shows.
Obviously a million times better than Lukas, without having to resort to weird body contortions. Come on! He did the last part of his performance sitting down on the floor and it still was a million times better than Lukas. Go Iceman!
You mean Magni's stuff? I could probably give you a few youtube links for his songs :) don't know if you can listen to them but I think so. But to warn you, most of his songs are in Icelandic, since he is from Iceland :) and yeah I know haha I am 6 years late to answer this xD
Magni was my favorite from day one until the last day ... what an amazingly talented singer/performer
Still my favorite cover of this song fifteen years later
Magni var lang bestur í Super Nova hann átti að vinna ,en hann var bara frá litla Íslandi
This may possibly be my favorite video on all of UA-cam
I miss Rockstar a lot. It was like a concert for the entire summer! Great singers that I follow to this day! Marty, MiG, Jordis, Magni, Ryan.
magni ! he is from Iceland i’m from Iceland too
To me this guy should've won, So many emotion in his vocals!!!
He had the best voice in that season
i used to love this show!! make another puh-lease! and Magni was by far my fave!
I liked his covers he did of I alone and Dolphins cry. Those are two songs that are really hard to sing and he sung perfectly. Mad props to Magni.
@KillerLikesKandy even more amazing when you consider that 6 months before the show Magni didn't speak a bit of English.
The ONE that should've won!!
They picked the wrong one.....
Better than the original!
Lukas did of course his own version u might say, and it was cool.
But Magni hit all the notes, and when the high pitch came he did it way better than even Thom Yorke did, and that´s no lie!
maaaan do i have the chills now!!! :)))))
u said it! no one can do it better than the original.
@cquake05 considering he was sick when he's was singing there, uh he beat the crap out of Lukas' version
ya they need to do another show like this with a kickass house band like this.
my god this man can sing.
he is one hot guy and on top of that he can sing oh my
magni es genial...tiene una voz increible...el deberia haver ganado...creep`le sale muy bien...
It wasn't his best, but it was still damn good. The high note gave me chills
i'm from iceland and i like this song!
david cook is amazing on this song. He rocked it out a bit from the original, but I like the tone of his lower register. This guy is pretty good too but he clips the words sometimes.
he is me godfahter!!!
AHHH I'M SO PROUD OF YOU MAGNIII!
amo a este hombre!
Magni's was definately better than Lukas' his voice just has that much more power, he can actually sing and doesnt full out yell.
I wish he won luv him!!
AMAZING!!
Wow MAGNI YOU ARE THE BEST MEN XD
totally agree...rough at the beginning with some off lyrics but magni has some pipes! Holy shit he surprised me with that run at the end.
Love love love!
i love how at the end he's lik "eh..." and shrugs it off. he knows he's sitting back down...
I really liked Magni and Toby the best!!!!!
Goosebumps....
This is awesome! I can't decide whose version is better, lukas or magni?
true, i sometimes think it would be a greater price to start a band with the guys in the houseband than with a few oldschoolers that honestly arent as good as the houseband.
I miss that
he is with us Icelandic people! lol
i mean where in the Hills did he get all that air to shout like that...just...wow. i am extremely amazed.
i love this song
I cried during this
I cried in 2006!!! 😭😭😭
he was sending off a different message..like he didn't belong in the bottom three hahaha!!!
where can we get this on I tunes, groundbreaking
wow!
yeah , good times
how was this 17 years ago?
really like this song and so magni!!...cant stop playing this fuckin song!!...
Idol is a fucking joke, a disgrace to all genuine musiclovers out there and Magni sure as hell proves that REAL singers wouldnt set foot on an idol-stage, hope he'll have a longlasting and awesome carreer, he deserves it.
@volcanicvikingo satt! :D alltaf gaman að fara a ball með Magna ;))
He says it him self ,, he's a band guy

lot better than moby's version.

i tough it was better then the original
so much better than lukas rossi's version!!! mgni rokt! he shoulda gotten furter than he did
what do you mean?
thos version is much better than that rossi dude.
please say sorry to all rh fans for this unforgivable sin.
Obviously a million times better than Lukas, without having to resort to weird body contortions. Come on! He did the last part of his performance sitting down on the floor and it still was a million times better than Lukas. Go Iceman!
so fuckin great
Not the best, not the worst. The guitar in the beginning sounded more off than the guy's voice IMO
I have searched for his stuff here in the U.S. can't find it.
You mean Magni's stuff? I could probably give you a few youtube links for his songs :) don't know if you can listen to them but I think so. But to warn you, most of his songs are in Icelandic, since he is from Iceland :) and yeah I know haha I am 6 years late to answer this xD
thats my uncle
What do you mean by fake?
this was pretty good but i dont think the backing band went heavy enough in the chorus at all!
why didnt this guy win??????
rockstar beat the crap out of american idol.
@staballemo only cuz he´s from iceland ;)
dude, did this guy sing all the songs off of rockband? hahaha
then why are you answering...
Creep solos: Magni>Lukas>Dilana
rogues69 Totally! Those 3 killed it.
Aye..too bad you cant spell his name right. Magni Owns.
not sayin much eh? :P
Yea! I think Marty Casey did it way better than Magni or Lukas...
@89801wink amazon...
No one ever gets the fuckin' point when they cover this song...
you wish
lukas gave a way better performance but magni definatly hits those notes better than lukas
This no way even remotely was close to Lucas's version.
cquake05 Magni was good but not out there enough... Lukas hit the notes & the moves & he OWNED IT!
lukas can't sing this guy can!!!!
He can't really hit the big notes like Lukas or Dilana could
You def ?
i have to agree...he does suck..lukas did a way better job
yeah, I've heard better.
Magni is a horrible singer. I'm better
