Anybody here in 2024? I still think time to time about this performance
2024 and yes listening to it now. Love this
In my library he'll yes
Same and I also cry in 2 min everytime watching it 🥹
Yeahhh
She kicked butt with this song. Etta would have been proud.
How in the hell did she not win?! Even i still get the chills!!!
exactly
Exactly!💖
Because that dumb bitch judge said some shit like "oh i can't choose" and she got eliminated.
SUP3RB yea but you can't blame her how tf does America votes get dead lock if America wanted her to win that bad then they should've voted for her twice as more that's the only reason why the judges were able to choose because it's usually up to America and Nicole couldn't choose she didn't wanna hurt either of them because they were both talented and both young the boy was 16 and she was 12 so it became deadlock again

Darling the votes most likly do not matter. this is all just a show.
she has the soul of a 46 year old black women thats been through it all
Agree!
10joejoe10 facts!
Elle L Yesss those of us that have been through alot are able to give alot. Somthing about pain that builds you
10joejoe10 racism but true
Deja Harvey not really racism by saying black people sing very well rather a compliment
10 years later and I still listen to this song like once a week 🤣 best cover of a song I’ve ever heard. still pissed she didn’t win
Mad Facts 💯💯
2022!!!!
2022
She's already won a contract with Disney by then so she wasn't going to get both. That judge (can't remember his name) spilling the beans on the live show didn't help her get votes as people figured she had already made it with Disney.
Same! I always come back once in a while to watch this
Still pissed in 2020 she didn’t win smh....
ME TOOOO
I will NEVER forgive Nicole Scherzinger for this.
@@SuperHollygrovechick I heard she had more success than Marcus Canty
Same.
Frfr she completely disappeared
whenever I see Paula pointing and shouting, "YES YES YES" it literally makes me tear up to see how proud she is
Yesss💗
Same!! Paula is so sweet and loving !! She was so proud and wasn’t shy to stand up and cheer and shout for contestants ! I miss her on the show! She was a real raw judge!
Rachel crow
She must be a LEO
@@makaveliversepro7434 she’s a gemini (: !
You would swear she just caught her husband of 25 years cheating on her lmao.
Emerson Knox 😆😆😆😆😆
Autumn Knox lmao yes I feel bad for whomever her husband is lmbo
She was disappointed because she knew she wouldn't win. She is expressing her anger because of that.
Lolol
Talent!!
I still cry when I watch this 😭😭😭 You can HEAR the emotion😢😢 When she starts to cry I just lose it 😭😭 I dont know HOW IN THE WORLD she lost she is SOOO talented
lol she put more emotion when she started to cry like a sore loser
like a young girl that was living her dream*
Miguel Trevino you're a dumbass
Omg to be so sad and then have to sing this song and try to keep it together must have been tough. It's amazing and because of the subject matter this performance is realistic as hell.
amaya searcy it is too sad
AINT NO ONE EVER GONNA DO A BETTER COVER THAN RACHEL CROW ON THIS SONG!!!!!!!💪🏽
Literally Beyonce
Not even Beyoncé.
I'm convinced Etta James got a second chance at life and was reincarnated as this girl
Nicolesca - l agree. This might sound crazy but l believe in reincarnation.
Nah, not a chance. Etta James had a voice like warm honey smooth and easy like silk in the breeze. Etta opened her mouth and magic happened, it was natural. She didn't even have to try. This girl is straining and forcing out every note it's not relaxing in fact my blood pressure is rising watching her. I wish she'd sit down and relax her face.
Etta James could NEVER be replicated. She sang from the heart, her own personal trials and tribulations poured out into her music. This is a young girl who has no idea what she's even singing about. Not saying she's bad, just not an Etta James incarnate ! She doesn't have the life experience or passion to pull off that song either. Wait do you listen to Etta James?
Amanda Starr Morgan This is a lighthearted comment I didn’t mean it seriously lol but like you need to chill she was literally like 12 years old, you don’t need to invalidate other peoples’ talent to support your love for Etta James
Amanda Starr Morgan god i think you might listen to her a little too much
All things considered, this might be one of the greatest performances ever on the X Factor. Perfect song choice and her voice is brilliant. She should not have lost this battle.
I tota;;y agree. best performance on any talent show ever
Facts!! she was too good amazing
I 100% agree
Period
Agreed!!!!!! I remember this like it was yesterday and I literally get the chills and cry each time I watch it!
01:40 she started fighting back tears.. talk about passion
She fought back tears at 1:37
I seen that
You can't fake soul..
No you can not! Perfectly said
At all
That 👏🏽whole 👏🏽mf 👏🏽part 💯👐🏽🎯 2021 still listening
She should have won 💯💯
I’ll never get over this she needed to win
after all this years the performance of this girl gives me chills every time I listen to it. outstanding performance
2016 and I still haven't forgiven Nicole for this shit!
daryl gray lol. I feel the same damn way!!
daryl gray 2017**
daryl gray yea
daryl gray lmaoooooooo
daryl gray word
I've heard many ,many versions of this song and still Rachel Crows is the Best to my ears :D
Ann Olson I agree. nobody tells the true meaning of this song like Rachel Crow. she felt it and expressed it. Rachel Crow nailed this song
Yes lawd!
Joshua lededt tho
I Like Beyoncé version she actually made me shed a tear
RIGHT!!!????
looks just like Etta James tho
Jamessa Mason yea does resemble her a lot like a youngEtta or descendant
She does!!!
reincarnation all the way...
Jamessa Mason yassss shee dooo
Yeap right u r
Her voice and expressions, I felt everything. Damn she killed I didn’t expect to cry lmao
11 years later and her performance still amazes me ❤️
that's Baby Etta. OMG ! I've never heard anyone sing that song as close to the original. I felt it in my heart . she sang that song better then Beyonce
AntiSocial214TEXAS HELLO!!
TBH Beyonce is not a soulfulness singer. She's more hips and grind! I don't remember the last time I listened to her music. Maybe 10 years ago? Her music does nothing for my soul.
AQTruthhurts you’re actually right.. i never got why I didn’t really like Beyoncé’s style.. maybe thats it, I love soul singers and shes not one
Check gizzelle out
She didn’t though 😂
still can't believe America voted for her to leave.... You can feel the story and passion everytime she sings. Still get goosebumps everytime I watch this video
Yaymeless Torres mhm
It was the Micheal Jackson week. She picked her song and theme and they gave it to someone else. That's when I knew this show was rigged. Because Rachel likes sad and powerful ballads I'm sure she picked Earth song but Amaro did that one. Amaro showed up to the audition super nerdy to win sympathy and then won the competition. I was only watching for Rachel so I lost interest after this.
Must be her age.
I could not breath the last 45 seconds of her performance and almost fell off the chair. I got tears - I am an old crusty ex-military guy and I got tears from that performance. Man, I gotta go lay on the floor to settle down before I have a heart attack.
Richard Flaherty 😂😂best comment...Now let me go lay down😂😂
Richard Flaherty, lol I can not with you but I feel the same. LOL
Richard Flaherty RIGHT !!!
miss Murphy sang this song on Voice and it had that effect on me.
Richard Flaherty exactly lol
Still the best cover till this day
It's the emotions she put in the song that makes her the best.
Had she been born 50 years earlier we would be calling her the greatest. That is how good this performance is. And a child, my god.
I lost all respect for Nicole Scherzinger for this one because Rachel should've won this competition.
MsTaz1915 same sista
Be nice, you don't hear a lot from Rachael or the dude who won anyways.
She was amazing, but so were others
it wasn’t Nicole’s fault she cried about it more than Rachel even did
It was definitely Nicoles fault ... and Rachel has done a lot since xfactor
she looks like Etta james too .. wowww
Hoochee Blue why did I not notice this?????
I thought that too!
Fun Fact no tf Etta James is mixed in pretty sure she has the same face features as Etta
Yeah i was gonna say this
@Fun Fact no she really looks like her
I remember being a lil kid and I watched her sing this, my mama was screaming, at the tv like “YOU BETTA SING.”
This little girl got me crying so much. Her voice and her emotions are just incredible.
I remember being so pissed at Nicole after this... Rachel was amazing
it was deadlocked...2 judges voted no...why is everyone mad at only one? THEN America voted her out....so 2 judges and America..but everyone mad at Nicole? Idiots.
@@StevenDoh because she didnt make a decision, she sent it to deadlock because she couldn't choose.
I thought I was the only one in America who was pissed at Nicole for failing to make a decision! She totally fucked it up! Still don't understand why she couldn't decide on a singer like Rachel Crow, who totally killed this shit! She was one of my two favorites I picked to go to the Finals (the other being Melanie Amaro, who ultimately won). I haven't watched this clip since the night she was eliminated cause watching her reaction broke my heart.
@@StevenDoh Because she was a coward bitch who took the chicken shit way out
I felt her passion with my soul wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nor A Etta would be proud. She personifies Etta in this song. So much passion, soul, emotion - so powerful.
Paula is literally me.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dustin Kloeppel ahahs same!
Well Paula helped send her home. Sooooooooooooooooooooooo...
😩👌👏👏👏👏👏
Dustin Kloeppel haha💪🏽✊🏾
Can feel the pain in her voice... Good job Rachel
This young Woman channeled the spirit of Etta James. I felt this performance in my chest.
Damn Rachel what did that guy do to your heart. Some emotions you are bestowing to us. I lost it. You girl just gave me life. You made me understand the meaning of life ! You gave me hope. Girl show them emotions girl yaaaass
Jalatto_
I honestly could still fight Nicole on sight for this shit.
Idc idc 😭
The Mary Lindsay 😅😅😅😅😅😅
Nah dead ass and tag me in so I can get my hits in. 🙄🙄 pissed me off
The Mary Lindsay 😂😂😂
lmao you crazy but i feel you
Yes Nicole was dead wrong for sending her home.
She SANG that!! Loved this performance.
This is still the absolute best ever performance of any talent show ever. I watch this performance at least 5 times per year since she performed it.
The passion is so refreshing and her voice is so effortless I love her
I still don't see how she lost that particular battle.
I don't either .. she sang her little heart out...that boy who won had nothing on her!
Yeah
Look at her now? She hasn't released anything in years, right?
DeityBlade Gaming she has released ALOT more music and gained a lot more fame than the actual winner though which is funny😂
Cassie Hall America votes were in a deadlock so the judges had to choose and one said the other and one said Rachel so it was up to Nicole and since Rachel was 12 years old Nicole figured she still had time for success so she choose the other one that's why in the next scene Nicole is hysterically crying because she had to tell a 12 year old a very talented one that she choose the other contestant and when Rachel broke down Nicole became heart broken but tbh it wasn't her fault America votes shouldn't have been deadlock
Miss Rachel, if you are reading this keep singing. This is a gift from God!
The. Best. Ever. Hands down and without question. Such raw emotion-- it not only makes me cry, but literally BAWL every single time, just like the first time! One of the best talent show performances of all time, in my opinion!
I CANT EVEN. I’ve watch this a million times I swear, everytime I get goose bumps 😍
Me too
That whole part 👐🏽 can’t even describe what this little girl singing does to me all these years later 😂💯💕
I watched this the 1st time she sang this & I'm still watching it 13 yrs later. This performance makes me SHOUT & HOLLER RACHEL GIRL YOU BETTA SANGGGGGGGG. The raw uncut emotion at the end I lost every tear I had to cry. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
One of the best performances Ive ever seen in my life. I'll never forget this.
Times like these I can't help thinking this show is rigged, SHE SHOULD'VE WON!!!!
This is why I don't watch anymore! It's sad they cheat real talent out of life dreams and careers.
If the points are not counted as they come in, and in front of a panel of judges, anything can be rigged. I stopped watching about 13years ago for that same reason.
This was the moment I realised we were being conned
So disappointed
Totally rigged
I stopped watching from then on
@@markterangi1939 I agree completely! I hope they get this back!
2016 and this performance still brings me to tears. She is absolutely amazing and to be able to sing an Etta James all time favorite......... speechless. She's still the winner if you ask me!
yes to everything!
Farrah Wells
Every time I hear Etta’s original, I need to come back to Rachel’s version. Outstanding.
That's exactly what sent me here today lol
It's been 10 years now I watched this girl again Wow!! She wasn't playing at all! The power, her voice, the attitude, and the expression Everything just amazing ❤️❤️❤️💯💯💯
She sings with such a passion
I know even tho she lost Nickeloden helped her and she released some music and was acting on some shows. I hope she got the bathroom she always wanted
dreamergirlbaby I'm confused bathroom?
SHE SANG THAT. it will always be one of my favorite performances
I watched this the same day it aired and I was so pissed that she didn't win.... I've heard other covers of this song and she will still be my favorite one...she was so young at this time she performed this song and she knew she was at the bottom 3 and could be possibly going home....so when she still hit every note and more I'm this performance, I mean she really left it all out on that stage that night...as she held back her tears because she knew she was going home....to me she showed not only her amazing talent but her professionalism! I still get emotional when I watch this same performance over these years, not many artist can really draw you into their soul like she did 💞
She even looks like Ms Etta James ..the way she sings and acts
The best performance ever in a talentshow and one of the best live performances ever on tv to my opinion. It is all heart.
This girls got some vocals! I felt her pain through the whole song love it!!
the best performance ever in a talentshow!!!!
+LUIZA VARGAS - Its been a while since I've been here to listen to Rachel, but after Simon Cowl mouthing off on the greatest singer ever he's heard on the X Factor (Congrats to Louisa Johnson), but Rachel Crow hits you with an emotional 10 ton truck in this performance.
I'll never forget her.
+LUIZA VARGAS Paul Potts tops this
Blueslover Delux- Yes his story is very emotion, but Rachel was first and - to be honest - more my kind of music.
Wow she looks like her and expresses the true nature of the song really well. Bravo!!❤👏👏👏
It's 2021 and I still come back to this. I never saw Nicole Scherzinger the same way after this.
She left her heart on that damn stage!! You betta sang for ya spot baby!!
That damn Nicole fckd up!!
She sung the hell out of this song!
That is a grown woman voice coming out that child. Awesome!!!! She sung the shit out of this song and sung it better than Beyonce!
better than beyonce?? STRETCH
I love her voice, but she still sounds like a kid here. Jasmine Sullivan actually did have a very grown husky voice as a young child. Go check out some clips of her. Beyoncé’s version was impeccable. This is not better than hers. You guys can’t deny her technique and ability just because you’re not a fan of hers.
@@actominator6742 nahhhh Beyoncé is technically flawless in her technique but she ain’t got the edginess for this song. Rachel could sing this next to her and eat her alive. Maybe not many other songs, but this one for sure
@AJ Hein Y’all be reaching for the stars. Beyoncé literally killed this song, and you’re sitting here saying a 10 year old girl would eat her alive. Lmao, stop.
After everybody that's tried to sing this song ...she's one of the better ones. You go girl
Who loves this song in 2019? Omg I still love her. This song makes me cry.
Here in 2024! I'm still mad she didn't win!
DAY-UM!! SHE TEARS IT UP!! I LOVE HER!!!
Amazing ! I got goose bumps ! This made me cry , such a powerful beautiful voice . She was totally feeling the song ! Great performance !!!
+Keribbean Queen - I've watched Rachel sing this a thousand times... cried a thousand times.
Evol, me too ! She had me feeling that song . Cried and each and every time watching it as well . Simply beautiful!
yes I feel the same
I still can’t believe how much she looks like Etta
Best performance of this song❤❤❤
She understood the ASSIGNMENT 🙌🏽❤️🌻 I know Etta's smiling down from Heaven 😇🙏🏼💞 because this girl tore it up ‼️👍🏾💯 She felt the song ‼️ she's probably grown NOW. Rachel Crow you're a 🌟
The best "I'd rather go blind" cover I've ever heard. Amazing... She even looks like Etta.
she is amazing ! top 3 performances of all time #XFactor
oh hell no. she can wake up the dead with that voice.. damnnnn slayyyyyyyed
Even after 8 yrs....I continue to come back to this same performance of this song.....ugh. I FEEL IT
Listening in 2022 to the best presentation of all time by factor!!
WHOA where did she get that EMOTION FROM?!
What VOCAL and what SOUL. Never, never, should have been eliminated. NEVER.
One of the most memorable contestants Ever.
10yrs later and I still come back to find this. One of my favorite moments.
You really had to be there to witness how iconic this moment was !!!!!
This has been a long time now since this little girl sang that song and it still gets me..It's like she's channeling the true essence of what Etta James meant for this song to be.
Paula is my spirit animal cheering her on XD
I still get chills seeing her sing this! JESUS!!!!
I am still listening in 2022. The best version of song Ive heard.
Still 1 of the most powerful voices that I've EVER HEARD!!! OMG she still runs chills through me until this day. ❤❤
It’s 2018 and she still brings me to tears. So much emotion and power in her voice.
Still gives me the chills....
I feel something unexplainable from this girl strong voice. Like tears coming in my eyes and same time im jumping with excitement. What a strong and beautiful voice. If try to listen to all the artist singing the cover for this song, you'll find that this girl is different from them all. Trust me.
I've never heard anyone else sing this song with so much emotion on any other competition. I was so disappointed that she got eliminated.
Love her still do. She should’ve won hands down
awww she was crying and singing that's so sad
Her being able to both just shows how powerful her voice is.
Pure Passion
OMG she's reincarnated that is little Etta James! Beautiful! round of applause girl!, made me cry, it just captured my heart and soul.
Still can’t get over her performance. I remember watching it with my family live, I still get the chills now. I love her and wish she would put out more music.
I always cry whenever I hear this cover by Rachel. My angel.
Best Performance hands down
by far the best performance on any show of this kind ever
I came here after watching American Idol - Top 7, to be cheered up after listening to so much fearful unemotional singing. Rachel Crow's rendition of 'I'd Rather go Blind' cuts deep, as it should...the best version ever of the song. It delivers so much emotion in 2 minutes - its enough to make a rock cry.
She should have won.. she's the best artist I have heard sing this song.. all of 13 yrs she slayed it..
Paula is exactly what i did she should NOT have lost this night
Love rachel crow i still listen to her and always come back to this vid gives me goosebumps
I come back to this often
