The most incredible performance I have ever seen on American Idol. This girl has talent like no other! I truly hope the members of Evanescence gets a chance to see this.
One of the greatest individual performances EVER on American Idol. This was a stadium/arena concert quality performance and Abi's powerful voice makes her destined for super stardom.
This was EPIC! Abi is the one to beat and I can't imagine that happening! She has a huge future ahead of her. Her voices and presentation is next level!
My favorite part of her performances is that she's so gifted in understanding the song & using emotion while also having a voice that's bordering on a force of nature.
This is probably the best American Idol performance of ALL time. I get chills down my spine when I watch it. Abi is gifted vocalist and performer. She may take it all this season!!
Im REALLY impressed. She was flawless. Even in the first part, she nailed every note. And she has a darky, melancholic touch, which I can relate. How I missed someone playing evanescence with this quality! I gonna follow you young lady.
I think you’re right. And I think Katy Perry would agree too. Just look at Katy’s ‘holy shit’ face each time they show her during the course of this performance. 😆😆
Her singing is impecable. However, she is becoming removed from the person she was at her audition. Some would say she is growing in confidence, I see her already starting to lose herself. She is good, even great. I hope she works at not losing herself
She is a combination of Streisand, Celine, and Pink...crazy talented. I would bet she wins multiple Grammys. It would be a crime if she does not win this years Idol...her last six or so performances have been best of night and some of the best in Idol history.
Abi is top female voice for me as well. She's like a tornado. She draws and sucks you in with the haunting soft tone, takes you on a wild whirlwind and then blows you away with long held power notes and you're left wondering what just happened! ❤
Good God. She is unbelievable. She's gorgeous, She has confidence, She has one of the best voices I've ever heard. Saw her audition on FB and been following her since. I may have a huge crush actually....LOL She's made me rock, she's made me cry. I don't know man, she ticks all the boxes and is a superstar!!!
I’ve watched this so many times it’s unhealthy lol I look forward to hearing more of her performing this genre of music and seeing her in concert in the future
Not only was this one of the best American Idol performances of all time, if not the best, but I think she may be the best singer to ever be on American Idol, and that is saying a lot based on the singers that have come from there. This woman can sing anything, and to perfection, and her stage presence and performance is on point! She should win, hands down, and I said that from day one with her audition, but regardless she will be a huge star!
Winner, winner. winner!!!!! The standout performance of this series, by far. Awesome talent, stunning looks, everything required of a Superstar, which she will become whatever the outcome of the series. Go Abi.
As soon as they showed the 3 song choices my jaw dropped and I thought "OMG... she's gonna choose Bring Me To Life and probably win American Idol tonight!"...and she damn sure did! Abi's voice, and just how she naturally sings, is perfect for covering Amy Lee.
This girl is a phenomenon, every time I listen to her I am in wow ! Especially this performance was so perfect so professional her voice her dress her movements around stage & Katy's expression & reaction in the end tells us how unique this girl is
Hands down best performance of the season !! If this young lady doesn't win this year something is terribly wrong. Abi, contracts on on your way !! No matter wat happens you have a long bright future ahead of you in music !!!!
this was not better than the original, and no one ever will sing it better than the original. but she did a good cover, I'll give her that. hope she wins.
I adore this singer, and she's truly exceptional. Her vocal range knows no bounds across any genre she tackles. She infuses every performance with such intimacy and emotion. I'm rooting for her to win this year's American Idol. I'm determined to vote for her because she deserves to be recognized. She's unparalleled.
I think this is the performance that separated her from the pack, gave her much well deserved attention, and in the end, won the season for her. I really didn't have a favorite until she ripped this one out. I hope this is the kind of music she does. What a voice. Glad she won.
Loved this song for her, vocals were phenomenal. You can’t hear it so much in this performance but when she’s on the piano and singing some of the slower songs you can hear a Barbara Streisand quality to her voice. She’s amazing and there’s nothing she can’t sing. Very interested to hear some original music… she could quite possibly be the Taylor Swift of her generation, super talented, stage presence, humble, sweet and funny.
I can't remember if Abi had a quality original. Some of the others originals were crazy good...Emmy had several. Regardless, I'll be rooting for her the whole way...vote vote vote.
She is very good, still pitchy at times. Her voice needs to mature a little more.. Great potential. She doesn't have the depth of vocals that Streisand or Celine Dion has/had. Linda Eder(Star Search Winner in the 80's) was way more like Streisand & had a Broadway musical written for her(Jeckyll & Hyde).
This performance gave me chills .....Abi congratulations you are the American Idol for 2024..... I think this is the best performance I've seen on American Idol .
WOW. I remember when i listened to this back in 2007. I was 11 years old. And what this girl did put me to tears because it brought me back to that 11 year old me and using a dish remote as a mic and dressing in black. Just chilling.
She is just amazing. Can't remember too many singers over the last >20 years to pull this off! Can we talk about the musicians that played that song??? Just wow!!!
Who else remember when Luke said in the audition of Abi that she may be the winer of American idol and he also give Abi a great song that make her shine and also the winer of American idol ⭐️🏆🥇👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
From her first audition, she showed she was ready to be a professional. All she needed was for a door like American Idols to open. Versatility, power, genius note hitting, class, beauty in music choices and interpretation-she walked in having it all to be the very BEST new talent American Idol has ever had. Amazing! Truly grand entertainer!
YES!!! Finally someone actually performs! As soon as she sang "Home", and right before the chorus, I was yelling at the TV, "OK now frickin SING IT!" And she did. The performance of the season.
Love seeing Katie’s face with this performance! Abi from the get was the ultimate win!! There are so many other contestants that I love but oh my gosh!! This girl is wonderful and as Katie says, angelic.
I’m watching this probably for the 15th time. My ears and heart crave your voice. Your first album I feel might go platinum. You have that possibility. I feel your voice.
Who else is happy That Abi won 🏆 😊? One of the best singer in American 🇺🇸 Idol ever 🎉
yes!!!!! just Maybe!!!??? so AWESOME!!! Finally GOT it "RIGHT"!!!!!!✔✔✔✔😄
I think she is the best and I've watched since Kelly. Kelly is great but this girl can belt and it's so pretty....the perfect voice.
She IS the BEST TALENT IDOL HAS EVER SEEN. ❤. None of the other winners play piano, guitar and can sing everything
💯

The most incredible performance I have ever seen on American Idol. This girl has talent like no other! I truly hope the members of Evanescence gets a chance to see this.
Agreed! Maybe the best American Idol performance, and perhaps their best artist ever, and that's saying a lot!
I knew that she was going to win , especially when I heard that song. She knocked it out of the park, I love that group! ❤️😊🎵🎶👍
Yes, agreed she's incredible
So you never saw Adam lambert performance of mad world
@@shoeplayisbad1 Adam Lambert is phenomenal. He's got to be the best I've ever seen ❤️🎶🎵
She killed it from the first note. When she threw her head back she turned into an absolute beast.
The head tilt that made her THE American idol
Abi absolutely! Sealed the WIN with this 1 for sure... 110%!!! 👌🏻
This IS what TALENT is!!!!!! ✔💎
One of the greatest individual performances EVER on American Idol. This was a stadium/arena concert quality performance and Abi's powerful voice makes her destined for super stardom.
The next Amy Lee
Totally agree. This was historic!
One of the few talent show cover versions of this song I think is at least on par with the original. She's got a crazy good voice.
Holy Crap YES!
This was EPIC! Abi is the one to beat and I can't imagine that happening! She has a huge future ahead of her. Her voices and presentation is next level!
My favorite part of her performances is that she's so gifted in understanding the song & using emotion while also having a voice that's bordering on a force of nature.
She also knows when the cameras are shooting in on her dome piece. But yes, her voice is angelic
ABI CARTER is a MAGNIFICENT and TALENTED SINGING GODDESS that will WIN AMERICAN IDOL, SAYS BIG STEVE DOSS
She's got a God gives his voice and she's going to win American idol, 4 sure❤😊❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
She sings better then Amy enough said 😅
Yep the hardest part of covers and singing is making emotion through your voice and part of the experience.
It wasn't just how great it was, it was how seemingly effortless it was. Great song choice, Luke.
This is probably the best American Idol performance of ALL time. I get chills down my spine when I watch it. Abi is gifted vocalist and performer. She may take it all this season!!
yes there best ever hello was good this past sunday
Watching it for the 300th time and still wanting more. Go Abi Go
💯❣️
Me, too....I just keep watching with my mouth falling open. What a voice, what a talent!
true 100 % love it
Glad that I am not the only one that has watched this on a loop! 🙂
@@TriciaSmith-jd3nc Look at Katy's eyes and expression as she watched. She knew she was watching greatness and the future!
Absolutely one of the best performances ever on this show. Amy would be so proud of this cover. Totally crushed it.
Absolutely 💯
ABI CARTER BECAME AMMIE LEE or even better
I agree that Amy Lee would (and should) be so proud of this cover! Abi tore that song to shreds! 😍 🤩
The head throwback is awesome SHE WINS!!!!!!!
Agreed That got me 😁
Yes. That part was awesomely amazing. I keep watching that over and over again.
She wins!!!
That is exactly the moment. That whole performance was fire.
All her moves on stage were so intentional and well delivered!
Taylor Swift couldn’t sing like that in her best dream.
Exactly taylor can't sing I admire her creativity and hard work song writing but vocals no better country than pop
Im REALLY impressed. She was flawless. Even in the first part, she nailed every note. And she has a darky, melancholic touch, which I can relate. How I missed someone playing evanescence with this quality! I gonna follow you young lady.
I’ve never heard Abi so good as she is here. I completely see her now in a new light. She ACTUALLY may win this whole thing.
I think you’re right. And I think Katy Perry would agree too. Just look at Katy’s ‘holy shit’ face each time they show her during the course of this performance. 😆😆
She is god but so many like her.
@@pjcannaday6337facts she literally almost passed out form this & tbh I almost wanted to give her the throphy bc it felt like a finale
Her singing is impecable. However, she is becoming removed from the person she was at her audition. Some would say she is growing in confidence, I see her already starting to lose herself. She is good, even great. I hope she works at not losing herself
She should win but then she is locked into their terrible contract. I think she will have a better career coming in second
Her flawless transition between registers is masterful!!!!
This may be the best American Idol performance of all time.
I absolutely agree 💯❤
One of the best covers I've heard for American Idol.
I had chills from the first note!
Gives me chills no matter what she sings 😊🩷❤️
I agree ☝️
I have heard many artists attempt this song. This is the first cover I have heard that is worthy of listening to again.
Superlative. 🤘🏻
She OWNED that performance. WOW!
Her best performance yet
She is a combination of Streisand, Celine, and Pink...crazy talented. I would bet she wins multiple Grammys.
It would be a crime if she does not win this years Idol...her last six or so performances have been best of night and some of the best in Idol history.
She had this win since day 1! WINNER!!!!!! American Idol winner of 2024 ABI CARTER!!!!
This was her defining moment.
Absolutely stellar and she also looked stunning!
Can't stop watching this performance. You knocked it out of the park. Congrats for winning it all. you deserved it.
When she did this song I had full body chills as she sounds like the singer of the song. I'm rooting for her to win! You got this abi!! ❤
She absolutely nailed this performance!!! 🎉❤
Iconic rock song by one one of the best female singers in that genre. She nailed it
Best performance on American Idol that I have ever seen! Wow!
Abi rose to the top female voice for me with this song. Not many can pull the audience in with both powerful and delicate notes. 🎉
Abi is top female voice for me as well. She's like a tornado. She draws and sucks you in with the haunting soft tone, takes you on a wild whirlwind and then blows you away with long held power notes and you're left wondering what just happened! ❤
Good God. She is unbelievable. She's gorgeous, She has confidence, She has one of the best voices I've ever heard. Saw her audition on FB and been following her since. I may have a huge crush actually....LOL She's made me rock, she's made me cry. I don't know man, she ticks all the boxes and is a superstar!!!
I am 60 years old and in love with ABI she make me wish I was in my 20s all over again
The purity, clarity!! & The affinity!! of her voice!! Aahhh!! She's just amazing and born to sing!! ❤❤❤❤
Katie’s face said it all.. holy shit.
Only the Lord God is Holy
And that is why she won!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!! WAY TO GO ABI. 💜
I’ve watched this so many times it’s unhealthy lol I look forward to hearing more of her performing this genre of music and seeing her in concert in the future

Abi IS OUR AMERICAN IDOL 2024

Good marketing and she could be biggest star of this generation
In a parallel UNIVERSE maybe
Hands down best performance of the season !! If this young lady doesn't win this year something is terribly wrong. Abi, contracts on on your way !! No matter wat happens you have a long bright future ahead of you in music !!!!
No One can ever win without the Rock! Brilliant Abi! Well deserved!

Best of the best period!!!!!!!!!!
Never heard anyone sing this song better than the original ❤wow
Agreed, no one can do it better than Amy Lee. But Abi absolutely just did the best cover of this song I've ever heard
And you never will lol Amy Lee can’t be touched. But Abi did do great
Still havent.
this was not better than the original, and no one ever will sing it better than the original.
but she did a good cover, I'll give her that.
hope she wins.
I stil haven't. But she's good!
Stunning. Yes, concert worthy.

This performance gave me chills .....Abi congratulations you are the American Idol for 2024..... I think this is the best performance I've seen on American Idol .
Absolutely one of the best idol performances I’ve ever seen. And I literally watched Kelly win live, years watching. Wow
I saw Amy Lee perform this legendary track with Lindsay Sterling on the violin. Abi takes it and hits all the right notes. Brava!!!!
She is in a class with Kelly and Carrie!
Carrie thinks she’s high and mighty. Lost respect for her she is a cry baby
Shes better than both imo....
Amazing! Love to see Abi sing with Adam Lambert! ❤😊
WOW. I remember when i listened to this back in 2007. I was 11 years old. And what this girl did put me to tears because it brought me back to that 11 year old me and using a dish remote as a mic and dressing in black. Just chilling.
She is just amazing. Can't remember too many singers over the last >20 years to pull this off! Can we talk about the musicians that played that song??? Just wow!!!
No matter what she sings, she is never out of breath.This girl is the best singer I have ever seen on american idol
Best performance on Idol in years

I love Lukes' reactions to Katy's silly expressions 😂❤️😂
All of her performances are like being at a concert, she is definitely a Super Star already!! God Bless her.
That’s the BEST performance I’ve ever seen! The entire production was SPOT ON!
I think this song probably won it for Abi! Fantastic performance!
She KILLED IT!!! she's my #1 On this show.😊

One of the best musical performances ever
COACHELLA, HERE WE COME!!
And I think Abi should go as Katy's guest AND belt out one "impromptu" performance for fortunate attendees.
incredible performance!!!
A melhor cantora desse ano no American Idol. Já ganhou.
This girl is awesome !!
She nailed it!! Lovely voice and performance. Amy will be proud.
Love seeing Katie’s face with this performance! Abi from the get was the ultimate win!! There are so many other contestants that I love but oh my gosh!! This girl is wonderful and as Katie says, angelic.

I’m watching this probably for the 15th time. My ears and heart crave your voice. Your first album I feel might go platinum. You have that possibility. I feel your voice.
Preciosa hermosa Dios la Bendiga siempre
That was the most INCREDIBLE performance. Unbelievable
You rock. Congrats on your win and the beginning of a great career. I wish you all the success in the world. I’m a fan 100%.
Abi did a phenomenal job with a technically difficult song. But, Amy Lee is still the queen. I hope Abi wins.
Absolutely stunning performance!!!
