For me, the best performance by anyone ever on AI. This was the song that changed him from being the guy who hadn't been eliminated yet to the the front-runner. "Home" sealed it. Jessica was very good, but she wasn't unique in any way. PP blazed a new trail. A well-deserved win.
watching this in 2023. i remember this season and them trying to style him up and change who he was. this song choice by him was basically him saying either you like me for me or i'm leaving. he wasn't going to change who he was just to stay on the show. i fell in love with him as an artist because of his authenticity. imagine telling ed sheeran he was hiding behind his guitar.
Brandon C. Sites - Critic of Modern Day Horror true if you're looking at only the finale to decide the winner, David archuleta should have won, but he didn't. But Clark's coronation song didn't fit him well at all... which lost him the finale imo
oh ,.. it's almost been two years,, but still can't get over with this amazing season of american idol ,,. specially sir Philip Philips! i'm a big fan forever sir! :D
Love your music Phillip,. I wish i could vote for you but i live in Canada you know what to sing and it is so nice to listen to . I wate every week and i hope you win you are the American Idle as far as i am concrened .......
Hey Boyd, could you sing like Philiip? That's what I thought!! He deserved to win and he deserves to go far which he is already! He's up for New Artist of the Year at the CMA's, OMG, I guess someone out there knows more then YOU do, by FAR!! Phillip Phillips is an AMAZING, songwriter, artist, musician, performer, he has it ALL!!!
I loved this week so much because his mentors were like "you shouldn't sing that song and you shouldn't wear grey" and then he sang that song and came out wearing grey-on-grey.
there is an impression that he is obsessed with the song, unwittingly leaving in the same state with me ... this has not happened for a long time from music ...
I didn't realize how much I missed Randy's Yoda-like pronouncements, as in, "Those who do are, those who do, are, do, and you know..." or something like that.
American Idol used to be good. their own rendition to the song is so different from the original, good different. examples are Kris Allen (Heartless), David Cook (Billy Jean), and this
2023 and still the best song ever my people!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
It’s 2020, I’m still thinking about this performance 🥰🥰🥰
This performance is amazing! I’m binge watching all of his performances haha
2021 and still jamming with this rendition and performance - even the comments are amazing!
Okaay? Came back to watch 'cause for me, this is up there with the original version.
2022 for me.
February 2024 and I still say PP sang the crap out of this song. Better than Billy Joel ever did...
This was the best season!!
Totally agree.Great great talents and funny guys like Heejun and Colton
Season 12 and 13 is damn boring
I miss Steven Tyler and Randy
Vi Ngo Phuong
I dont miss randy... but I REALLY miss Steven!!
Steven was amazing!!!!
Andreal Jackson true best season with greatest voices
I knew he would win from the moment of his audition
What a beautiful man with a beautiful voice.

The passion, the vocals..Probably my fav performance outside of in the air tonight
IMO, the most talented and memorable performer ever on Idol. 5 seconds into his audition, I just knew.
I love this rendition!!! I love his voice, articulation, and performance.
this never gets old
His voice is bloody amazing
That's why he won. ❣love him❣ still watching after all these years

That was awesome! I can't believe they didn't give him a standing ovation.
I really liked this too. His changing it just made it better.
They seen to have reserved standing ovations just for Joshua but Philip and Jessica were just as good!
I am so in love with this man. One words says it all, yummmmmmm.......;-)
1:06 That stutter is just...wow
so wow cx
he's quite different from others..very extraordinary! Love it!
he is just so purely passionate that people can feel it in their gut. it drives people crazy.
This guy blows my mind, not a huge american idol fan but i would watch this guys over and over
BEST PERFORMANCE FROM HIM ON THAT STAGE , GORGEOUS.
the best season ever!! full of talent
"You actually know who you are" That's the big difference , he knows his music, he loves it and I LOVE it too. 1:06 Phillip's stamp.
I LOVE Phillip Phillips...I missed this season and heard about him later in the season. Just watching the performances now. Billy Joel!? awesome.
A flawless performance! My favorite of his next to Volcano.
That was a pretty fantastic interpretation of that song.
this guy really is something else
I knew he was the winner...from his audition 💜
philip philips is the perfect of the perfects.
My fave performance by Philip on Idol.
That's my favorite Billy Joel song.. Philips did a great cover. Thumbs up
The last good season of American Idol.
This past season was o.k I think CLARK SHOULD HAVE Won though. although after this season it went ⬇
+Olivia Craner Yeah, I watched 14. Clark was the stand-out of the season and got shafted by Scott and the American Idol machine.

Terrific rendition of Billy Joel's Moving out (Anthony's Song).

I didn't realize how much I missed Randy's Yoda-like pronouncements, as in, "Those who do are, those who do, are, do, and you know..." or something like that.

He sure did!
I knew people would still be watching this video so long after, so epic! although I reckon most of the views are mine.... :)
American idol 2014
I'm proud to wear 'grey on grey'
What you wanna see is this 1:39 (watch from here, he really destroys it!)
I dont know why everyone thinks that, that is Phillips own thing, Billy Joel does it aswell in the original, but big ups to this dude, he rocks! :)
At this time- we knew...
Steven Tyler was the best American Idol Judge EVER!
