I love how humble quirky funny geeky awkward she is SHES REAL SHES NOT FAKE HER CLOTHES MAY BE WEIRD BUT HER PERSONALITY AND THAT PHENOMINAL VOICE HAS GOTTEN HER TO BE THE X FACTOR 2013 WINNER IM FROM AMERICA AND OUR X FACTOR IS SUCH A MESS IT'S RIDICULOUS I LOVE YOU DAMI IM YOURE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND ON TOP OF THAT YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN BUT YOURE NOT MEAN OR ANYTHING I LOVE YOU SO MUCH YOURE SUCH AN INSPIRATION
It is no surprise she is the winner, she was pianist at 10, at 11 studied at the Young Conservatorium of Music program at Griffith University. She graduated from the University of Queensland with first class honours in a Bachelor of Music. She completed a Masters of Arts degree in contemporary voice. Her mother is opera singer. As Danii said she can sing any song she got the technique and she knows music.
aiddogg3 She said she practices her voice on computer since high school to university. I am sure her mother trains her voice at very young age. Her voice needs a lot of years of training. She needs to practice long notes every morning.
Elle a fait ses classes mon cher ,même si tu n'es pas surpris,elle a eu des adversaires ,mais elle c'est vraiment démarquer ,quel talent ,elles en a ébahit plus d,un ,bravo Dami elle ne l'a pas voler...
Goodness, it's been a very long time since ONJ from down under had me bewitched ... "Dami, you're world class!" . Yes absolutely!! Now i can see why people say you're a national treasure of Australia.
So I live in America...and this girl is literally the best singer since Whitney! I could listen to her today, tomorrow, and 20 years from now!!!!!! YES!
Here we are 17th January 2019 and I am watching this for the squillienth time and still get tears and goosebumps. Since this performance I have been to more than 6 of Dami's concerts, including the Sydney Harbour Cruise Mothers Day concert and have had the great pleasure of meeting Dami several times and had some great conversations with her. Dami has not only proved that she is the very best singer and performer in Australia but is now loved and admired all over the world. Dami is the most sort after performer to appear at all major corporate and National events and has become the voice of the annual Christmas Carol concerts in Sydney and Melbourne. Quite simply, Dami is the very best.
I have watched Dreamgirls the movie, Dreamgirls on Broadway, I have seen the two Jennifers sing this version. This version by Dami is up there with theirs. All those comments about singing off key and cracking are utter nonsense. This is how the song is meant to be sung. It's a song about a girl Effie singing in desperation to the love of her life who is about to leave her. She's literally shouting out at him to stay with her at the end. And seriously, if Dami is singing off key, Ronan would have picked up on it straight away especially as this is his LAST chance to get his boys over the line for x factor. It's fine if you don't like Dami or her voice or whatever, but this performance is SPOT ON. This is an artist who is in full and total control of her musical instrument. Indeed, as much as I love the Jennifers, I prefer Dami's version as I find the tone and clarity of her enuciation more appealing.
I watched this video no less than 20 times trying to pick holes in it and it still brings the tissues out every time it is like I am listening to the song for the first time only better. I'm not a Dami fan but she sings this song FUCKING AWESOME !!!
Wow, seeing Dami's mother, an opera singer in her own right and seemingly her daughters most reserved supporter, totally revealing through her body language, how utterly thrilled she was over Dani's performance, a truly magical moment, now where's the tissues.
Now the show is finish and I am missing her to sing every sunday. I have no choice except keep watching Dami past performance again and again. I also like the judges comment especially Danni and Ronan. Dami can you please sing for us again
i still can't believe that she nearly didn't get through the boot camp, remember she only was brought through because the competition lost a contestant. If that didn't happen we would have had a another winner that year, and no Dami Im... OMG wouldn't that have been unfathomable. Its was just fate... Meant to be.
chrislopez, I have a question which has been on my mind since january. How did dami end up at danni s camp and not with red, nat or ronan? I will appreciate any ans. ty
Gee, can't remember, i think it may have been that Dani had her category, i can't remember if Dami was an over or a the young age group, as i don't know how old Dami is. All i remember that when she stuffed up singing Joleen the song they decided that she wasn't ready and didn't put her through to the last stage. But a contestant that did get in decided to leave the competition she was offered to re enter the competition. And the rest is history.
So nice person..she thinking only of her mentor and wont her too be proud..i love her..she is only a good singer but a nice person too.. I love to see her and lisent to her ..❤️
AGREED @CoMa!!! Dami said she could 'pour in everything' - AND SHE DID! I hear Dami's love of jazz, her classical training, her gospel/spiritual influence (listen to Dami's version of "This Is My Desire") and 'getting her rock on' in this song. With deliberate and measured vocal control, Dami sang a story containing emotion and personality, not just a song! I feel sad for those that don't hear that - too much AutoTune in their life.
Ever since I watched Dami Im, x factor in the USA just can't seem to compare! Love Dami. Best wishes for her career and my hope is that she will come over to the US and dominate our charts as well!!
@ Jennifer, Wow that's a nice compliment for Dami. I've read report that the US version of X Factor is not rating very well. I have came across quite a few comments from people in the US who have viewed the Australian X Factor performances, especially from Dami, that they think it's a better production and the judges are generally positive. We, Dami fans in Australia, have been asking for the US fans to help and spread the word over there. I've seen somebody mentioned on Dami's Facebook page that after she won the Grand Final, NBC news in the US briefly mentioned her and said that she is a breath of fresh air, a talent similar to Whitney Houston. If Dami can perhaps get a guest spot on Oprah or Ellen that would be awesome. I have posted some comments on Ellen's UA-cam channel telling her about Dami, but to date nothing yet. So we'll have to wait and see. But it's just amazing to see that people from across the globe are discovering this emerging star. Her debut album is currently number 1 on the official Australian chart and is also charting in no less than 15 countries.
Jennifer Yang I live in U.S. but American version is nothing compared to Australian. From the talents to the production this year, I feel more connected with Aussie X factor more than my own country hahaha. After they ditched Lillie, i quit watching the show
OMG HER VOICE IS AMAZING CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT SHE WASNT EVEN PUT THOUGH TO HE JUDGES HOUSES... AND SHE WON SEE THE JUDGES ARE MESSING WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES AND DESTINEY SHE IS AMAZING THANK GOD THAT SHE GOT A CHANCE
Dami Im Hi Dami! I have been watching you on AUSTRALIA XFACTOR SHOWS .You surprising me very week. I REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH TIMES I HAVE LISTENING TO ALL OF THOSE SONG YOUR SINGING. I REALLY CAN'T REMEMBER. BUT YOU'RE TRULY REAL AMAZING VOICE ALWAYS SOUND LIKE WOW " SWEET HEAVEN "DAMI OH DAMI. I THINK I LOST THE WAYS OUT. I ALWAYS PROUD OF YOU DAMI AND DANNII ALL THE WAYS. LOVE YOU DAMMMMIIIIII AND GOOD LUCK. .....

Congratulations to Dami for a much deserved victory. It was a pleasure watching your rise to the top on X Factor and I'm proud to live in the same country as you. Long may your success continue to shine.
Never before have I seen comments from people from so many different countries as much as for Dami. What a testament to her talent and well done to Dannii. Dannii was my pin-up girl, we share the same birthday and I also have a sister called Kylie so now that she has done such an awesome job show-casing Dami I love her even more!
Danii is such a sweet heart and a great mentor! I admire their relationship! Even though it's on TV I can feel they have something special between them! Thank you so much Danii for supporting Dami!
Always love to listen to your wonderful songs...You are so amazing, Dami...Watching and following all of your performances from Thailand...Love you always
I have been watching her performances each week, again and again. She is soooo gooood. I have voted for the first time for you Dami. Your last performance just blow my mind. Good one you.
What a spine-tingling performance! And the key to Dami's success is her consistently awesome performances throughout this season. Wonderful to witness the birth of a superstar.
she is the best singer evr in aussie xfactor history....for me
thanks god for you only
True.....best singer from aussie x factor..no doubt
Her voice is truly amazing
I love how humble quirky funny geeky awkward she is
SHES REAL
SHES NOT FAKE
HER CLOTHES MAY BE WEIRD BUT HER PERSONALITY AND THAT PHENOMINAL VOICE HAS GOTTEN HER TO BE THE X FACTOR 2013 WINNER
IM FROM AMERICA AND OUR X FACTOR IS SUCH A MESS IT'S RIDICULOUS
I LOVE YOU DAMI IM
YOURE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING
AND ON TOP OF THAT
YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN BUT YOURE NOT MEAN OR ANYTHING
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH
YOURE SUCH AN INSPIRATION
That's what you call a super-sized standing ovation!!
It is no surprise she is the winner, she was pianist at 10, at 11 studied at the Young Conservatorium of Music program at Griffith University. She graduated from the University of Queensland with first class honours in a Bachelor of Music. She completed a Masters of Arts degree in contemporary voice. Her mother is opera singer. As Danii said she can sing any song she got the technique and she knows music.
yeh but don't forget she said her self she couldn't sing properly until she was about 20
aiddogg3 She said she practices her voice on computer since high school to university. I am sure her mother trains her voice at very young age. Her voice needs a lot of years of training. She needs to practice long notes every morning.
Elle a fait ses classes mon cher ,même si tu n'es pas surpris,elle a eu des adversaires ,mais elle c'est vraiment démarquer ,quel talent ,elles en a ébahit plus d,un ,bravo Dami elle ne l'a pas voler...

I'm here again to watch Dami ...miss you Dami
My jaw was hanging open for most of the song... AMAZING singer!!
Absolutely loved this, and applause for X factor style for finally giving dami nice outfits for this night.
OMG Dami is amazing.. love this girl..

Your comment is as perfect as Dami's singing.
dami can sing with any speed but the time constraints on this show pushed her to sing faster.
Oh gosh have seen this so many times and it still gives me goosebumps , what an incredible performance ...
She clearly put every fiber of her being into each note of the song. So happy for her win and her success!
Agora em junho de 2022 ainda assisto as performances dela. Inesquecivel!!!
This kind of old-style R&B is SOOO her genre! Just perfect
Still rewatching these in 2015

J1MZ07......thank you so much for posting all of Dami's performances. I am now a huge fan.
2020 🙂
I watched this video no less than 20 times trying to pick holes in it and it still brings the tissues out every time it is like I am listening to the song for the first time only better. I'm not a Dami fan but she sings this song FUCKING AWESOME !!!
you should be a dami fan, she deserves it don't you think.
I live in uk and have watched this girl every week on Aussie X factor & she should be a global superstar ant wait to purchase her album in November
Wow, seeing Dami's mother, an opera singer in her own right and seemingly her daughters most reserved supporter, totally revealing through her body language, how utterly thrilled she was over Dani's performance, a truly magical moment, now where's the tissues.
what tops a 4 judges standing ovation? ... a 4 judges standing on top of table standing ovation ... EPIC
listening to this gives me goosebumps. She deserved to win this!
Now the show is finish and I am missing her to sing every sunday. I have no choice except keep watching Dami past performance again and again. I also like the judges comment especially Danni and Ronan.
Dami can you please sing for us again
Good luck as our representative at eurovision this year Dami. Love your work
Every time I watch this it makes me cry.

Dami, YOU made South Korea PROUD!!!
i miss you dami every week...you are so great...love you dami your my idol.
I love intelligent singers! She is brilliant!
I am so going to miss seeing her on Sunday nights. Really the only reason I watch X-factor.
EPIC. That is you can say about it. Id hate to be the next singer trying to come out to top this performance - impossible.
I am your fan for life. Can't wait to be at your first concert. You are very talented and amazing.
World class ,baby !
I can't get enough of her!! I keep watching and watching. She is simply amazing. I'm proud of you!
i still can't believe that she nearly didn't get through the boot camp, remember she only was brought through because the competition lost a contestant. If that didn't happen we would have had a another winner that year, and no Dami Im... OMG wouldn't that have been unfathomable. Its was just fate... Meant to be.
True
And she wouldn't have come second in Eurovision!! So trippy
kirsten smith yes i know, to think Danny and the other Judges sent her home.. It was all meant to be. She was amazing at Eurovision.
chrislopez, I have a question which has been on my mind since january. How did dami end up at danni s camp and not with red, nat or ronan? I will appreciate any ans. ty
Gee, can't remember, i think it may have been that Dani had her category, i can't remember if Dami was an over or a the young age group, as i don't know how old Dami is.

But a contestant that did get in decided to leave the competition she was offered to re enter the competition. And the rest is history.
Sunday and Monday nights now feel boring without the X Factor and Dami's performances.
DAMI

IT'S GOLD.
So nice person..she thinking only of her mentor and wont her too be proud..i love her..she is only a good singer but a nice person too.. I love to see her and lisent to her ..❤️
