Amanda, my band Helicon opened for you at Blondies in Detroit a few years back. I hope all is well and your continuing to find success. You are a unique soul and one that the music world will never tire of. Don't EVER give it up.
One of my favorite Beatles songs, and she put an interesting style to it. I liked it honestly, her voice is so...unique that it just works how she sang it for this song.
i love amanda the first time i see her on her audition i see in her the star quality already the only contestant suited to changes the idols for the past season shell definitely win this season
this was her best week. this was the bomb. her version and take on this song is awesome and my fav version. hher album is supposed to come out in dec.... or at least a single. be on the lookout on iTunes around that time...
I love her! She great singer, great personality, awsome performance! it is SO BAD that she´s out... Know theres only guys singing balads with girlie voices, and girls singing balads and trying to sound like divas... I think amanda really liked what she did, rock and roll songs with a lot of personality, and unique voice.. kind of american idol that you dont see all the time... Hope she keeps doing what she is good at!! And also waiting for her cd to come out! ill buy it in a second!! LOVER HER!
@santamara She was 11th. Since Idol, Amanda has started her own Label, Chile Records...made her first record, "Solidify" and just kicked off her 2010 tour. She wrote and arranged all the songs on her album...check it out on iTunes...It's GREAT!
I'm sorry. I've watched American Idol since its inception - this is my favorite performance in the show's history. I feel fine that the show did not embrace her, she's awesome.
she's entertaining - likable, authentic. I don't pick her as the very top in this group but top 3 yes. Her performances are as entertaining as any though, upbeat, I like her
@6tesGirl Thank you so much! You're a sweetheart for replying to me!! xo Only 11th, eh? :( Damn Simon!! Oh well, If Amanda never could even sing a single Note,,, I'd still adore her Laid back personality! She is Real Woman!! I enjoyed her music/ vocals here, so much! Thanks very much for the link! You're a doll!
No it's not. Rock and roll isn't shouting, nor is that what Amanda was doing. She was singing, perfectly in tune. Shouting has to do with pitch not tone, since Amanda was perfectly on pitch, SHE CAN'T BE SHOUTING. Her tone is rough and raw, if redrox mistakenly thinks this is shouting, he/she should check out Joplin, Armstrong, Tyler, Gray, Turner etc.
her voice when she starts out sounds like well i don't know but i love her singing.i can tell she hates doing other songs that ain't rock'n' roll it looks like she is trying her best.but she sings real good
I was so pissed when they booted her first! I think she is the purest one. This performance is amazing,.but I dont think they are looking for the most talented singer,.perhaps the most sellable. She seems like she would be fun to hang out with.
She will sell records and so will Kristy Lee Cook. It will be interesting to see who sells more records. Amanda has a big ROCK fan following that loves her routy style.
I sitll enjoy listening to her sexy raspy voice and even more so watching her perform. I felt she had the best chance to truly be an idol...I dont even remember who was the eventual winner of THAT particular competition...but I remember Amanda!
Actually I liked this faster Rock version better as she created some new riffs and runs and powered her chorus lines better. It is actually a different sounding song the way she sang it ... I liked it better.
Shw was the most exciting performer on idol this season. The others all want to sing those high pitched ballads. They are so boring. All sound the same. Hope Amanda has a record coming out soon. Go Amanda Go, Love you, girl
my dad was getting mad because they thought she sould of got voted off before amanda did and the other people but i have got to say she may be nice but shwe should of got voted off but i know she did but still.i don't know how else to explain it
Amanda, Asia and Carly for the girls. Top 3. For the Guys David, Australian Dude, and da Emo dude! Top 3. America totally got it wrong! The rest suck! Chekeze, and the Country chick absolutely blow! They are still there? This show is a joke! It's a popularity contest! I would buy Amanda Cd over everybody from season 7. She is the most talented in my opinion! Raw talent! She is the " REAL DEAL". You'll see! But then again America has bad taste in music. I mean Soulja Boy was a smash hit in the US
Also I want to slap Paula because she IS being disrespectful. Maybe not to amanda but to Simon, His opinion and constructive critisism is usually the most important compared to what randy and paula say
She wont win because of her one dimension type of singing but I hope she doesnt get the boot toooo soon. I like her. Plus she could probably kick my butt.
12 years have passed and I'm still watching this!😊
16 now

i remember buying this on itunes and it was still early when they would upload songs for purchase online, i miss her!
She was amazingly powerful. & sexy as hale
What a great version. This should have been a massive hit!!x
She was and still is my favourite...
Love you girl......
My mom and I were both waiting for her to sing Elvis...shame she left so early, she was a blast to watch.
great performance, i look forward to more from her. she doesn't need american idol
One of my favorite Beatles songs, and she put an interesting style to it. I liked it honestly, her voice is so...unique that it just works how she sang it for this song.
Cincinnati loves you Amanda!! Rock on!!
her voice is AMAZING
I love Amanda's performances. I'd definitely pay to see her!
Amanda Rocks!!! This girl can sing, move, and is looking good!! Way to go Amanda!!!
It's a nice soulful turn to the pop voices you always hear on this show.
Amanda really rocks !!! She is my absolute favourite on idol.
i love amanda the first time i see her on her audition i see in her the star quality already the only contestant suited to changes the idols for the past season shell definitely win this season

i really love this season of american idol... everyones very good... and unique..
THE BEST FEMALE ROCKER AI EVER HAD. PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amanda was so entertaining to watch week to week! I really missed her when she got the boot. The show just wasn't the same
She still looks and sounds good 11 years later .... !!!!
She rocked it man! first time I really liked her.
I love her! She great singer, great personality, awsome performance! it is SO BAD that she´s out... Know theres only guys singing balads with girlie voices, and girls singing balads and trying to sound like divas...

its so interesting
and is soooooo different
i loved it
i was thinking the same thing when she was voted off the show. she's the most unique female contestant AI ever had... i love her voice. she does ROCK!
Hopefully no one won't mark this as spam, because it really isn't. "Play On" is a great song with so much raw emotion in it.
I LIKED IT VERY MUCH
she RAWKS LOVE HER SHE IS THE BESTTTTTTTT
@santamara

2019. I love het so much. Forever
i'll always love Amanda!
:)
Amanda should have made the Top 10 and gone on tour...she definitely added something *different* and seemed like a nice, down-to-earth person too.
i love her voice c: dont take this downnn ever ^-^
Amanda fans should vote for this season's Crystal Bowersox. We need a Blues Rock chick to win this thing this year.
love this girl
LOVE HER HAIR! will do the same way she colors it lol... and her signature punch whenever her song ends. i find it adorable lol
This was one of her biggest highlights, no pun intended. =P
I'm sorry. I've watched American Idol since its inception - this is my favorite performance in the show's history. I feel fine that the show did not embrace her, she's awesome.
loved it
she's entertaining - likable, authentic. I don't pick her as the very top in this group but top 3 yes. Her performances are as entertaining as any though, upbeat, I like her
God, I got such intense chills on the second time she scatted.
love herrrr!
She is such a breath of fresh air. My modern day Janis. Love her!
Love the way she took a very poppy sounding song and turned it into something that would fit her style
A real Rock n`Roll princess
She had a really good stage presence too
when Amanda left...the personality on this show went with her.
I´m so absolutly agree with U
@6tesGirl
Thank you so much! You're a sweetheart
for replying to me!! xo

You're a doll!
Check out her new album SOLIDIFY that can be purchased over ITUNES, AMAZON, CD BABY, NAPSTER, etc...
Best Beatle Cover Ever!!!

you don't find a lot of hardcore rocker chicks like this one. i respect her for that:) and she looked really pretty in this vid
@RazeGeneration i love her album
such an underrated vocalist, amazing songwriter
I was so pissed when they booted her first!
I think she is the purest one. This performance is amazing,.but I dont think they are looking for the most talented singer,.perhaps the most sellable. She seems like she would be fun to hang out with.
She will sell records and so will Kristy Lee Cook. It will be interesting to see who sells more records. Amanda has a big ROCK fan following that loves her routy style.
Ithink she is the best!
I'm still pissed Amanda got voted off from the competition so early; she was one of my favorites from season 7!
yeah its like in may i heard
I sitll enjoy listening to her sexy raspy voice and even more so watching her perform. I felt she had the best chance to truly be an idol...I dont even remember who was the eventual winner of THAT particular competition...but I remember Amanda!
Was that Taye Diggs in the audience at the end? I love him!
i really wished they wouldn't have kicked her off. she was AMAZING!
If you heard one Ogremyer song,you heard them all.
This version is WAY better than the Beatles!:)
i really like her outfit tonight \usually ithink she pulls it off just .. almost
but she looks good tonight
lol. i know... they say that every year.
agreed
shes so pretty and i love her personality. unfortunately for the 8 yr olds she isnt britney spears
Actually I liked this faster Rock version better as she created some new riffs and runs and powered her chorus lines better. It is actually a different sounding song the way she sang it ... I liked it better.
She'd have done an amazing job on Helter Skelter.
WOAH? I dont remember her, but shes fucking G O O D.
Shw was the most exciting performer on idol this season. The others all want to sing those high pitched ballads. They are so boring. All sound the same. Hope Amanda has a record coming out soon. Go Amanda Go, Love you, girl
I differ from Simon this week (I like it when he has real critics instead of insults), I think she was better this week.
Erm... Why not? Amanda rocks, btw! :D
ikr she sounds like elvis female version
A quien carajo le importa la critica, La mina canta y canta bien.
How she didn't become another Joan jett.. Or Madonna.. Is beyond me
get in line trader
you should of tryed out this year for steven tyler he would of sighned you like quick you are the shit come back
my dad was getting mad because they thought she sould of got voted off before amanda did and the other people but i have got to say she may be nice but shwe should of got voted off but i know she did but still.i don't know how else to explain it
W.A.S.P. BLACKIE LAWLESS DAUGHTER..
Amanda, Asia and Carly for the girls. Top 3. For the Guys David, Australian Dude, and da Emo dude! Top 3. America totally got it wrong! The rest suck! Chekeze, and the Country chick absolutely blow! They are still there? This show is a joke! It's a popularity contest! I would buy Amanda Cd over everybody from season 7. She is the most talented in my opinion! Raw talent! She is the " REAL DEAL".

Also I want to slap Paula because she IS being disrespectful. Maybe not to amanda but to Simon, His opinion and constructive critisism is usually the most important compared to what randy and paula say
Would've loved to hear her do some Beth Hart. These rocker singer/songwriter chicks aren't really "built" for Idol.
she shoulda won
it's one thing if you didn't like hernandez's singing, but to diss him because of his sexuality is homophobic and cruel
What a ripoff she's not on the tour... she woulda rocked the place:<
This was one of my favorite performances of the season.
She's so hot.
Paula needs to stop lying. This is not the best season of talent.
She wont win because of her one dimension type of singing but I hope she doesnt get the boot toooo soon. I like her. Plus she could probably kick my butt.
Needs more cowbell. Lots more cowbell.
janis joplin reborn!
Beetlejuice!
For once, an interesting Beatles choice. Everyone else chose songs that were SO predictable...
she looks like bonnie tyler....yahaha
that was really good. she shoulda made the tour. simon's full of shit. i understood everything she sang. he should clean his ears.
Nooooo way.
The Beatles version will always be better, hate to break it to ya.
shes ok but she sucked in the finale. im sry but its true but i still love her
SC gets a lot right and a lot WRONG...!!!
Não tem graça isso. Perde totalmente o sentido, a musica fica sem melodia
