- This was also the "swan song" that Pia sang the night she was eliminated (from the Top 9). "I'll Stand by You" is a 1994 song recorded by The Pretenders from their sixth studio album, Last of the Independents. The song is a ballad that pledges love and faithful assistance in times of personal darkness. Since its initial release, "I'll Stand by You" has also become a major hit for British girl group Girls Aloud in 2004 and Carrie Underwood in 2007, both times recorded as a charity single.
"I'll Stand by You" was covered in 2007 by Carrie Underwood as a charity single, recorded for the show Idol Gives Back which aired on April 25, 2007.
Carrie Underwood performed the song during her visit to Africa, which was used as soundtrack for a video vignette, where Underwood is seen singing to children and doing different activities with them. The single and the video were released on the U.S. iTunes Store on April 26, 2007. Ryan Seacrest announced that all money made on digital downloads would be donated to charity to help millions of poor children at the time.
On its first few days of release, the song sold 124,496 digital downloads, prompting a debut on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at number six, Underwood's highest Hot 100 position since her 2005 debut single "Inside Your Heaven", which debuted at number one.
It was eventually removed from iTunes, leading the single to have one of the biggest falls in Hot 100 history. The single collected over 300,000 digital downloads in the time period it was available for download. As announced, all profits from the sale of the single were donated to charity. The single also received unsolicited airplay on U.S. country music radio stations, despite not being officially released to country radio.
Underwood performed the song on the American Idol Season Six Finale on May 23, 2007.
In 2009, the cast of Glee covered the song for of the episode "Ballad". The song can be heard on the compilation Glee: The Music, Volume 2. - Zábava
12 years later, this still gives me chills.
Here 13 years later after seeing Olivia Rubini perform this on season 25 of The Voice and remembering Pia's performance. I watched this the day it aired and stopped watching the rest of season 10 after she was booted, and stopped watching following seasons regularly after. This performance is goat'd! 13 years later and no one else's cover can compare, my favorite idol performance PERIOD! ❤
I literally screamed when she got out.. I loved her soooo much!
ikr...
best version of this song ever
She's one in a couple billion- Gorgeous and the voice of an angel
Im Japanese and I hardly remember this year I was watching her singing this song on FOX Japan TV and also this year we had a huge earthquake so this song really motivated me at that time. I gotta thank her so much.
goosebumps baby! standing ovation from judges, co-contestants and all audience? WOW Amazing PIA!
BRAVO~ She should have won this~!
Muito raramente podemos testemunhar momentos como este onde a perfeição se expressa através da arte.
one of the best voices
This was my favorite moment of that whole season.
THe best performance ever ! AMERICAN IDOL !
2020 Still shocked 😲

Pia is such a great singer i waz sooo mad when she was voted off... obviously ppl cant see something good even when its rght in front of uu
Amazing, beautiful 😍❤💖💕
i just wanna to say for her. damn.... damn.... and damn fantastic voice.
she was really my bet from the start of the season..so sad she was voted off..
Beautiful. Just beautiful.
Pia absolutely was the best singer. Even the other contestants were on their feet applauding and cheering her performance. She was the best singer American Idol ever had.
She was definitely on track to win. It was around this time that I stopped watching Ai.
PERFECT!
For the 6 thumbs down, you are deaf. Pia is David Foster’s Celine Dion when he does his special on PBS. She is also an EMPLOYED musician.
Thumbs Up.
Wow
Who's watching in 2020?
I was so surprised she didn't go farther. She was so good. This was my favorite of her performances.
Linda
pia definitely won.. that was amazing wow
I can't believe she didn't win!!
In my mind she was the winner
i cant believe the saved Casey Abrams when they could save her!
She was just the best on American Idol, she should've stayed and won, but after all, she's talented and would be an awesome singer, no doubt about it!, :D
YOU'RE MY AMERICAN IDOL PIA!!!!!! XD
@Nikoleta13Sk8 Actually they saved Casey a week or two before and they only get one save per season so they didn't have it to save her with
1:39 nineties mariah vibes
did she ever record this song and release it as a single
Harry Klyne nope! unfortunately her career was going downhill since the show ended. its unfair cuz she's one of the best singers in our generation. she's way better than taylor swift,selena gomez,katy perry‼️
@@merayahcarey9390 what do you mean downhill? She's doing great rn. She is touring with David Foster and singing with Andrea Broccoli and She has a netflix show about her called Westside
Also Check out another one off the chart
Jackie Evancho- "Ave Maria" at Longwood Gardens
Your welcome
In season 11, she's the only 1 of my favorite...where is she now???
Beautiful! And I compare her with Catarina Pereira!
They had already used it in the week before.
Beautiful! And I compare her with Catarina PereirA!
its ok she got voted off bc she got a record deal thanks to great performances like this and thats the important part
y r u lookin down, WATCH THE VIDEO NOW.... IM WAITIN, BYEBYE
She didnt win cause the show is run by 14 year old girls, but she was the pure winner!?
i cant believe she was voted off :L, what wrong with people :|
just a thought.... I wonder how far she would go if she would go on The Masked Singer?
One person clicked the wrong button.
JLO judging a singing competition is like a peewee hockey player reffing at the olympics.
I actually havnt watched american idol since she was voted off cus now iv hated everybody who has won since then besides like 1 person
i lvoe her but i wanted james to win
The people who own/run the show were not real music people and the show was cancelled. Only a very few ever got anywhere, heard by people not involved with the show. A total let down for the ones that had real talent. A sin.
I liked her better with dark hair.
If she was any good she would have won, have had 4 albums out by now, won several grammys, peoples choice awards, album of the year awards, female vocalist awards and many others.m.whats she done not to much...🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️ glad she got cut
