    • dee April 18, 2013

  42. Nichole April 19, 2013

    Tasia is the greatest singer to come out of the Idol generation, and one of the greatest singers of all time.

    There is not a singer in this day, and age that can touch the raw emotion Tasia display with every vocal performance.

    She comes second to MJB with the raw vocal emotions.

    Might I also add that she looked stunningly beautiful, and her hair as well as make-up looked hella flawless. I’m diggin it big time.

    I hope she does very well with this album.

    Tasia is the real deal.

  43. MUSIC MAESTRO April 19, 2013

    KUDOS TASIA. YOU WERE BORN TO WIN. HER TALENT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. SHE’S DEFINITELY ONE OF MY FAVS OF THIS ERA. SHE HAS REMAINED TRUE AND LOYAL TO THE GENRE OF R&B/SOUL. WHEN IT SEEMS AS IF ALL HOPE IS LOST FOR R&B, THERE ARE STILL A FEW THAT’S PUSHING TO KEEP IT ALIVE….CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHAT MONICA, TEVIN CAMPBELL, LETOYA, GINUWINE, DONNEL JONES, INTRO, ALLURE, AND OTHERS COMING WITH.

  44. Teacher April 19, 2013

    Her passion alone makes me wanna cry! Go ‘head then ‘Tasia!!!!

  45. Umm April 19, 2013

    whitney houston would approve!!

  46. beystan April 19, 2013

    wow she slayed!

  47. danny b April 19, 2013

    I was literally at a loss for words watching this. This performance literally had me balling in tears, like literally. Fantasia has always bee on of my favorite artists and this proves why. She is THE BEST Idol winner and contestant that the show has ever seen and that’s not opinion but FACT. Yea other Idol graduates have won all these awards and sold all of these records, but when not one of them has the artistry, soul and raw vocal talent a Fantasia Barrino. I seriously have never heard or felt a performance like that from anyone since Whitney’s. Even if this album doesn’t sell like it should, I believe this really Fantasia’s moment and she has truly arrived as one of the industries legendary voices.

  48. DOSSOME April 19, 2013

    If you don’t like her by now then it’s your loss…Let’s support Tasia folks,BUY HER ALBUM WHEN IT DROPS.everyone can see she put her heart and soul into it.

    • truth(icki released 1,726 singles and 80 videos for reFLOP and still caint go platinum! Yea b****** i said it NNN WIT!! pops tongue) April 19, 2013

      Im goin to hun….caint wait to buy it!!

  49. cocobutta April 19, 2013

    BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    Raw emotion of that was captivating!!!

  50. Savannah April 19, 2013

    And people had the NERVE to wonder how she won Idol. Fantasia has a gift that R&B music hasn’t seen since the 60s-70s. Her passion, energy, vocals, state presence, soul….unmatched by any contemporary R&B singer. GOD this performance had me on the verge of tears. Fantasia doesn’t just SING, she ministers to the heart. And for that, she WILL be a legend. No, she won’t sell 25 million copies of one album like Adele, she won’t get every cover like Rihanna, she won’t sell out in 5 minutes like Beyonce, she won’t win an Oscar like J. Hudson….but she will be mentioned amongst the GREATS 15-20 years from now. MARK. MY. WORDS. Speechless.

  51. DOSSOME April 19, 2013

    We all know Fanny will still be holding it down 40yrs from now just like Patti and Aretha,Legends who haven’t sold as many records as they truly deserve given their raw talent…yes,Fantasia is one of a kind…#FutureIcon #FutureLegend

  52. NEWFAN April 19, 2013

    LAWWWDDDD SHE JUST SLAYED ALL THE HATERS!

    I will admit I wasn’t a fan of her before, and her image was DREADFUL! but this performance was amazing and she looked beautiful and professional!

  53. Daddy2rough April 19, 2013

    Yes i cried, like hysterically. Something just triggered my emotions and she actually made me come to realize a few things about my life. Thank you Fantasia for this performance

      Chiiiiiile u better tell it!! I feel the same way

  54. LoseToWin April 19, 2013

    Nicki was right when she said THIS was the performance of the season. Fantasia always takes you to that place!! She’s a blessing.

    • truth(icki released 1,726 singles and 80 videos for reFLOP and still caint go platinum! Yea b****** i said it NNN WIT!! pops tongue) April 19, 2013

      I agree with nicki

  55. michellacox35 April 19, 2013

    That was an amazing performance. I hope that this year’s contestants took note of how she built the song up, sold the emotion, and interacted with the audience and her backup musicians and singers. That’s how you put personality into a song, and make people Feel a song’s meaning…… Oh mercy, Fantasia was fantastic. She looked gorgeous and sounded great. She’s my absolute favorite female Idol and still killing it on stage. I still can’t believe how great she looked. The dress was perfect, her hair and makeup was the flawless, I am so proud of her. She just sizzles on stage and bring her heart and soul with her when she performs. Can’t wait for the album…….. LOVE YOU FANTASIA!!!!!!!!!!

  56. Who u callin a bytchhh April 19, 2013

    Wow….just wow. We just witnessed a LEGEND in the making!!! That performance was powerful! I can’t believe I’ve been sleeping on fantasia all this time! New fan here!!!

  58. bvlgari April 19, 2013

    Simply amazing. Wow I forgot how truy talented she is. That was raw, emotional and had me in tears. I absolutely loved when in the middle of the song she said, “this i my favorite verse” and continued to slay as if it was routine. Why isn’t this single on itunes yet?

    • truth(icki released 1,726 singles and 80 videos for reFLOP and still caint go platinum! Yea b****** i said it NNN WIT!! pops tongue) April 19, 2013

    This preformance was pure class. When you have the voice and material you don’t need the dance moves

  67. DASTARKIDD April 19, 2013

    THEY SAY GROWN MEN DON’T CRY, BUT FANTASIA WILL BRING ANYONE HUMAN BEING TO TEARS AND SHE LOOKED LIKE AN ANGEL ON STAGE SHE DEFINITELY HAD THE LIGHT OF GOD ON HER I CAN’T STOP CRYING THIS IS A SONG THAT HAS SO MANY MEANINGS AND SHE DELIVERED!!!

  68. BitchICan’tEvenSpellWelfare April 19, 2013

    I can’t get over it. I just watched it again and tears came to my eyes. I have missed passion and true emotion in music so much. Thank you Fantasia!!!
