This performance is still so, so, so good. Spectacular. David's emotions at the end show how perfect it was in that exact moment to sing that exact song. And the standing ovation was so deserved, and it clearly touched him so deeply. I have watched this so many times but I always come back to it.

Perfect performance of the perfect song at the perfect moment. For me, like watching an Olympic athlete score a perfect performance when it really counted. Unforgettable.

Amazing performance and he is so hot! Unfortunately he lost his roots and his music hasn't captured this level of emotion. Wish he would return to Axium roots and reignite that amazing voice with the kind of unpolished, gritty sound. Both Albums he put out with Axium were amazing. His choice of words etc were great and then his first album after Idol was like bubblegum music. His potential is so much more than he is showing right now.
