Just said goodbye to my husband as he passed at home after a battle with cancer.He is so missed .I sent the original and Iam's version which I preferred to our son's.I hope it will help in their healing too.

Sorry for your loss😢
Thank you 💗 I lost my sweet dad to cancer too. They are our angels. Sending love
Never heard this song before. I was on tiktok and this audition popped up.
I lost my dad on December 30th, 2022. Right before the new year. I’m still crushed. This broke me like no other. I miss my dad.
I came from TikTok looking for this video too. I lost my dad last summer.
I'm really sorry for you both for your loss 🥀💔😔 God bless you two with all your families 💐❤🙏🏼
🙏🙏🙏🙏
@Jessica B I lost my dad 45 years ago when I was a child. A lot of years of pain and this song pulled it out and releas ed
Yes I came from tiktok too...
OMG, I'm 62 yrs old & this young man has me crying, missing my own late dad, father-in-law & step-dad. VERY, VERY POWERFUL.
I have been struggling with brain tumors that are incurable for the past 10yrs & pray that my children feel& deal with my loss the way this loving young man did.
🙏🏼
I hope you find peace and joy my friend. I hope to see you on the other side.
DYOR and looks into CDS MMS. Not bleach
You will find happiness on the other side full
Of peace and no more pain. I pray that they are comforted in your peace and happiness once you return home ❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am sorry to hear that :C
I’m rooting for this young man! Bless him for putting these lyrics out there during such an emotional time.~ His voice is phenomenal!! I miss my daddy still after almost 20 yrs! Tears flowing ~~
This Aged perfectly
That beautiful raspy tone in his voice is a gift. Amazing performance.
👍🌿🙏☘
I lost my dad three weeks ago and while it happened fast I’m eternally grateful I was able to be with him when he passed. This was absolutely beautiful and touched me deeply ❤ I love you and miss you dad
I'm sorry for your loss Chris. I lost mine 2 years ago and I kept his ashes until this April where I will reunite with all my sisters in Germany to spread his ashes in the water. I didn't have a good relationship with him, but I learn to forgive and trying to remember the Good Moments.
Love, ChrisKnight❤️❤️❤️
Be well my friend.
I’m sorry for your loss. I lost my father to cancer April 2, 2020. This song hits so hard. I feel your pain bro ❤
Iam, your voice is liquid gold. You’ve made us so proud 🥹 Truly the angels have gifted you 🙏🏾 RR4L
RED RAIDERS FOR LIFE!! ❤🙏🏼
Yesssaaahh!!! You take this show by storm n run with it tokz for you and your father!!! We stand behind all the way!!! HHIIIWWEEEEEKKKKOOO!!! _\,,_

Lost my uncle who was my dad in my eyes two days ago. .. crying a river right now. This song was truly beautiful. This young man will go far. ❤️🙏He did chase my monsters away he was an amazing person I was blessed to have him in my life rest in peace 🙏💔💔💔💔
Stay strong…condolences
Enough to make a grown man cry. Even a man that didn’t know his dad. Wow. Beautiful voice bud ! Your pops is proud !
Exactly ! Wtf
Seen this dude on TikTok and UA-cam for a while, glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves
Tongi has the voice of an angel! His audition took me back 11 years when my Dad was battling cancer and they told him there was nothing more they could do. He was my best friend and mentor. We came home that night and cried, hugged and had a final drink together. The last days I spent sleeping on the couch next to him keeping him comfortable. I love and miss you Dad! Tongi, you rock!!
The guts to hold back his tears after he spoke out his father's name, that's a grown man right there. Amazing singer! His voice is tender and pleasing to hear.👏
This was for all of us who have lost our daddy. Thank you young man..I lost my daddy in 1999, when I was 25.
I was the same age, way too young
@@JesseStevenTrumm3992 Yes indeed! I was also pregnant with my youngest child.
This kid is the ONE. Once every 20 years a song or performance has the power to bring a tear. This is so healing for those of us that never got to heal. It literally lifts any anxiety I have away. I didn't ever think that was possible but this does it. Thank you Iam Tongi for bringing your pain to heal us.
That is what music is supposed to do... touch our hearts. His performance was on point for me in remembering my Dad. His presentation made all the difference in the message of the song. Wonderful.
@explorerseven
You're so right about this young man with his lovely voice and beautiful song 🎵 and yes,that's what it supposed to be with an emotional feeling,for ur close loved ones who passed 🥀💔 😢 🙏🏼
His vocal tone makes this a better version than the original. Great Job !!!
Agreed
I agree
Agrees
TOTALLY AGREE
I'm in agreement
I’m watching all the way from Nigeria! I cried throughout this performance,good job and may your Dad find rest in perfect peace in the bosom of the Lord.
Sweden 🇸🇪 here and we agree with you 💙👍🏻💛
Better than the original. Getting Israel Kamakawiwo’ole vibes.
James Blunt is better cause He was the first Man sing this song
Nonsense. James blunt is better
Agreed. I love the cover better than the original.
It's a great version! But nobody can sing it like James Blunt.
“Better” is subjective. I never know why people don’t just say it’s a preference for them
Mahalo, Mahalo..😢😢😢Your voice was angelic and hit a spot in ❤, so Mahalo!
This is the third time I've watched this and I cry just as hard every time. Brilliant young man full of talent.
As soon as he started playing the guitar I could feel it, just this young man’s soul coming through the music❤❤❤❤
Well, that made me cry and he did an amazing job.
Omg I hope he makes it far in this competition. He made me cry and made me think of my dad who died over a year ago.
This leaves me with so much tears. It reminded me of my late dad. The dad I didn’t even get to say goodbye, hurts too deep, ,, thank you for the song♥️🫶.
Didn't get to say goodbye to mine either. He was in a hospice and I was 5 minutes too late. He passed on Friday 13th May last year. That song had me in tears. Very talented, brave lad.x
@@stephengriffiths6018very sorry for ur loss 🥀❤God bless you and family 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I lost my dad not long ago and he was my very best friend and a example of what a true man should be, this performance brought me to tears, better then the original, I hope with all my heart you get the shine you deserve

Iam Tongi, thank you for the gentle way to reflect and mourn -- your talent and heart are in the right place
I came across this last night and have never heard the song before. I lost my dad 8 years ago and this literally broke me. Wasn't ready for this.
I loved his performance. Had me in tears it was just beautiful.
He absolutely killed this performance!!! Awesome job!!!
Wow that was moving …. Great performance, great voice …. I hope you go all the way Iam.
I’ll never forget this song. I just relate to this song so much. Thank you!
I come back to this every so often, not out of loss but because it’s so powerful and I love the performance
Every year we have that one video we watch over and over again. 2023, for me it's this video.
Wow... I was in tears, like most people who listened, I'm sure. It's amazing that he managed to get through the song.
cheee yessah braddah iam! rest in peace to your father hes up there in heaven looking down at you proud of you keep going! represent hawaii proud!
Damn....I tried to hold back the tears.....but it got me.
Great performance 👏
My dad is still alive and he’s one of my best friends. This audition made me sob. He has a such good tone to his voice. So sweet. 😢
I’ve listened to many reactions to this audition, and have cried each time, and my wife might be thinking I’m nuts, I don’t think I will ever stop listening to this great performance!! Ian Tongi, your great, thanks for this performance, loved it….
Just beautiful, so pure and I’m in tears
Lost my dad in my arms. 6 years ago, I still suffer from CPTSD every day cause of it.... thanks so much for this audition and bringing this song to my attention.
He did an amazing job, dedication to his father. Miss and love you dad
Beautiful tribute to Rodney. Blessings to you Togi. Tamasi’i Aupito!
Outstanding performance. Some people say that singing is about to tell a story in a way that everyone wanna listen. That's the proof!
My father passed in 2011 I feel this and now know about a great song by James blunt hope he wins it all
Did this song Island Style way this version just took this to another level of how much you love ur parent/parents and how you miss them so much forever. He sang to his Dad and all the others in heaven. I hope u can tell more story through your voice.
Ya i lost it. I miss my dad everyday and this just broke my heart.
WOW IAM! 😲 WHAT AN INCREDIBLE, MOVING AND BEYOND BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE! WISHING YOU CONTINUED SUCCESS IN EVERYTHING YOU CHOOSE TO DO. ❤ 👏 👏 👏 👏👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏👏 👏 👏 👏
I miss my Dad even after over 10 years he was the most amazing man and a great example of how a father should be ,
My heart goes out to this guy love and respect to you ❤️
This is the song that I was looking for. My dad died 2 years ago and we never said goodbye.
He lives in your heart forever. So does my dad🙏♥️
Wow! You made me cry and I felt all your emotion! Sorry about your dad!He is looking down and I’m sure very proud of you! Keep singing your amazing
Lord.... I feel his pain lost my mom last year .... I am broken and heartbroken. I feel everything he is feeling.😭💔
This kid put this song back on the map.... I never heard it before until last night on American idol
Aww, love it so much I couldn’t stop crying!
This guy deserves everything he gets. Bravo 👏
Oh, before they turn off all the lights
I won't read you your wrongs or your rights
The time has gone
I'll tell you goodnight, close the door
Tell you I love you once more
The time has gone
So here it is
I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
Thank you .
I dont care how many times I practice in order to perform an emotional song like this (in front of people) there is no way I can do that... my emotions will destroy my vocal cords and my hands will no longer function accordingly. I give this guy so much credit for his courage in overcoming all of the above.
His beautiful voice and heart did me in. This is better than the original. Bless you, young man, and wishing you a career in music.
This boy is really have a magnificient voice and he sang truly from his heart..You make me cry boy.Luv you and hope you gonna be a new 2023 American Idol..Will follow your journey after..by the way i'm not even know this beautiful song and melody
Bawling my eyes Beautiful voice. Make 808 proud Go get em 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 KAHUKU homegrown cheeee
I miss my dad... Loved the performance, can't stop listening to it.
I remember my dad who passed in 2021,Nov 27..its been 1 and half year since he left us..when i listen this song and his performance..I'm definitely in tears😭😭The song is about my dad and mine too..
Bless your heart that was beautiful. Your Dad is proud of you and will always be with you. Carry the good memories in your heart. Give yourself time to grieve and heal a little. An actor on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon said something so true, when you lose a parent the axis of the Earth changes and will never be the same again. I lost my mom and I believe that is a description that covers it all. Don't let anyone tell you they know how you feel or how or when you should get over it everyone Grieves deeply and differently. Stay strong. something
God bless this man I couldn’t even imagine losing my father…. Beautiful song
This kid's emotion is soooooo raw....woah
I miss my Dad so much he passed away at a young age he was only 60…crazy how time flies May 7 will be 4 years that he left us 😞 February 20 was his birthday he would of been 64 I wish I can say it will get easier but it only gets harder I miss my Bestfriend my dad every single day!!

I’ve never heard this song. I UA-cam the original this kid sang it better than James Blunt. Monster is now my new favorite song. I’ve been playing over and over sing his audition Sunday. Every time I’m balling like a baby. What an emotional song. I don’t know how he was able to finish the song! You’re amazing! I hope he makes it all the way!
These absolutely no way I could've made it through this song. Wow. I like his version better than the original
I miss my late Dad too. My Dad introduced me to Music / Guitar. Thanks Dad, see you again some day
Love seeing young talent absolutely smash their opportunity and shine bright.
love the song and love the guy's vibe. Wish him the best
This made me cry my dad passed away last month i felt every word. He deserves to win🤍
I’m rooting for this young man. May all his dreams come true and may all his pain be lifted. ❤
I pray this man gets a record deal I want to listen to him forever. Just amazing!
Anyone who has lost a parent . . . this hits full blown on the heart. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
My dads still alive and this still broke me down in tears, very powerful
