This was one of my favourite beautiful songs of Anthony's from Idol. He puts so much emotion and passion into it. He is such a brilliant talent the best in my opinion that Australia has produced we should be so PROUD of him. I know I am. Thank You Anthony for your amazing interpretation of that song and sharing your god given talent with us all. Thank You acall3a for posting it,

my friend had his best friend as her teacher last school year! but he's a really good singer. Go Anthony!

I love this version! I could listen to this over and over! What power and strength-especially at around the two minute mark. Moreover, I really love his microphone moves when he moves it away and then brings it closer--it's quite a flirt! I'm surprised he didn't win.

I just absolutely LOVE this magnificent performance by Anthony from Idol. I keep getting drawn back to watch and listen to it over and over. The raw emotion and passion Anthony puts into this powerful performance is amazing. Anthony you are a shining beautiful star with the most heavenly voice I have ever heard.

fantastic! i hope he comes to north america and be famous here!

Goosebumps... Oh God hes so cute...

It’s 2020 and we are all at home in isolation. Anthony, accompanied by Tim on piano and BVs, just sang this song in their lounge room for all of us to enjoy once again. Bloody marvellous as Dicko would say.

awesome anthony i could watch this video 10 times in a row and still not be sick of it he was so great on idol wowowow i havent seen this video for a long long time but it still really awesome!!!!!!

How could this guy not have won?

Amazing....Venezuela is waiting for him

I still get goosebumps hearing Anthony sing this song. He is just such a class act. I love Marcia's face too when he sings this song I think my expression is very similar when I listen to Anthony sing - lol.

hes understated here in his own country hes fantastic hes so bloody good Glad to see him back on top of the Arias

Anthony was an awesomee singer He shoulda won.

Still watching this today. One of my favorite performances of Anthony's on Idol.

OMG! i got CHILLS while watching this. I love this performance, so very moving and beautiful. Anthony Callea is the most talented male singer I've ever seen and heard.

My favourite Idol performance of his.

Anthony is the best male singer to ever come out of Australia! Seriously!

OMG..is this Australian idol??..he's so talented..big strong powerful original vocals...

Thats great waly93! Love to hear that! Cheers!

This Voice is just Amazing...

Portland Maine - Named Number one IN Forbes Magazine - as the number 1 city in America- has a fondness for Anthony. We hope he finds comfort here.

he blows every american idol contestant away except for elliot yamin i think. Would win any idol competition anywhere in the world he is that awesome.

I never tire of listening to Anthony singing this. His voice makes my heart soar.

I like the way he sings it !

I completely agree with you muzicanoz and Forwardthinker it should be all about the fantastic music and talent and how much joy and pleasure they bring to the world. On this subject I can only say that Anthony has since the very first time I ever heard his beautiful heavenly voice bought me more musical pleasure and joy than any other artist. I just LOVE his flawless voice which always possesses so much power passion and intensity. Every song Anthony sings he makes it his own. phenomenal talent.

Its always been one of my most favourites from his idol performances, Gosh I can't beleive its been 5 years and he's done so very much since then and going strong, he's amazing. Bring on album No. 3.

What a very good performance! I'm so impressed with his wonderful voice.

Anthony by a long way, its at the top of my favourite performances by him when he was on idol all those years ago.

he is amazing!!

from puerto rico here, loved his voice. One of my favorite artists and I dont get to hear or see much about him. He is not know here in the island, and he should, because he has an amazing talent. Good luck with everything

I Love him!!!!!!!!!

Hi Lambie, He was 21 when he sang this one and he turned 26 last Dec 08' and is even more gorgeous now and his voice is even better than it was back then. Just check out some of his latest video's, O Holy Night, Di Sole e D'azzuro , You'll Never Walk Alone, Come What May, Nella Fantasia, there are so many great ones, I hope you enjoy.

He should have won Australian Idol that year. No way should he have ever been relegated to second place.

i really love anthony's version he's really great n he got that big voice to go for it............. he's the idol

Agree with you totally mairanya1, an awesome talent a real gem.

Holy shit!! He looks like a damn teenager but with a bold, full range in his voice. He sounds so 80's! I love ittttt!!! He's effin good man! No douby he has to get a record deal.

I totally agree! even though I'm from Canada. Anthony needs to showcase his talent outside of Australia. Him performing on American Idol is an excellent idea. ~Robyn

I love Anthony singing this song and agree 2.05 is just wow. The look on Marcia's face is just how I feel when I'm listening to it, what a beautiful voice.

thank you mister ...... wow ... The Pray all time favourite ... but this is just amazing ...xxx from NZ

They have an amazing musical director over there! So you hear versions of the song you never would over here! I wish America had him!

who would have tought that such a great voice would come from such short guy!! lol!! amazing voice!! speechless!!!

Awesome rendition

its my first time to listen to this guy...wow he really is amazing...

For those that aren't Aussie and therefore never saw Anthony on It Takes Two (singing show- he mentored a girl) watch him sing Hook Me Up with an IronWoman. I love his voice at 2.26. So gorgeous! Just type in 'Hook Me Up Anthony Callea' into KZfaq.

its my firts time to listen to this guy,. he really is amazing,.

Hi Joanne, He hasn't been too quite lol. He did some musical theatre lead role in RENT and starred in Wicked for 6 months, hes just completed his final show touring with Whitney Houston, and about to release his 3rd album in the next couple of months. If you have Foxtel, keep an eye out for a new show called Ultimate School Musical: Fame, Anthony is part oft this 10 part series.

@lcowles Glad you discovered him icowles, he an amazingly talented artist.Would love nothing better than all of the US to discover him, I agree his voice is quite unique and like no-one else out there at the moment. Hope you get to hear more of his music, there are so many of his songs on KZfaq.

With a combination of his charming good looks & that voice of his, I have to say that Anthony has taken me where I haven't been before when it comes to enjoying song & video. Foreigner's version is a classic but Anthony dose an excellent jo of this cover that I waon't take 2nd best. I want to point out this isn't always the case but when it comes to getting off on Anthony & his destinctively bueatiful voice I have to say this could be the case with any song Anthony may sing..luv him!

omg hes so cute he doesnt even need to sing, just stand there and be cute.

Miiiii!!!!! He's FRIGGIN' AAAAAMAZING!!!!! I LOVE HIM!!!!! HIS VOICE IS UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!! 　かれは　かわいいです。

WOW... nice voice, and good performance. =)

I was elementary student when I hear this and idolized his voice ..now I'm and industrial engineering student...

I love this song and Anthony sings it perfectly, its just as good as the original version. I really thought that he was going to win Idol. Ive also seen him in concert and he was awesome.

My favorite performance of his from Idol! Amazing!

i'm from australia and he is really popular over there for the teenagers and little girls

He was 21 when he did this performance, he's now 26 and an absolutely amazing artist.

I would love to sing beside him. That song is wonderful and he pulled it off nicely.

without doubt the best pure singing voice in the history of australian idol, a travesty he didn't win. Not that mattered in the end as he has become highly successful.

The Mega Star of Australia!!!!!

3 times WOW:-)

we' have idols in belgium but there'se nobody here that can ever sing that perfect, and the looks, wooow

i have never heard of him until I 've found him here on youtube. He has a really good voice and he is charming too. But what is he waring? skip the jacket, haha. But I love his voice 10 points from Sweden

In love with this guy now

I have herad his name but didn't know who this guy was but he has a great voice.

Same!!!

yeah! i know! cannot wait for it! Do you know where else in the internet I can find videos of his latests performances other than youtube?

Damn it KZfaq sends you related videos and the next thing you know your hooked on some dude you never heard of.

I really think he should have won idol.

very the best

Those low note my god!

hmmmmmm, remarkable talent. excellent version I love it. I wonder what were the Australians thinking when they voted him off!!!!! hehehehehe it's ironic, he didn't get to win yet he's more famous than the winner herself.

well i have been there myself but it was for teens and younger kids

damn!! he's so good..

@MsForwardthinker I just realized what artist his voice reminds me of. He reminds me a lot of a young George Michaels. I love his voice. At 21 he has the gift and I'm very confident he will go far in life. Can't wait to pick up his new release. Kinda wish he would try doing "One more try" by George Michaels. It sounds like his voice would be PERFECT for that song. I love how he sounds with these 80's rock songs.

Este chegou em Elvis Presley, com certeza...

@TheAllience so true.

He's still going strong, look out for his next album first half of next year. In the mean time there are heaps of recent wonderful live performances to check out. Enjoy.

yep

Memories :)

amazing.....

@ianloverain Yes, he is indeed. And he has a boyfriend too.

Its probably about Damien L, he was the one who had didn't get a thing from his Journey album.

bringing up some repressed memories there?

@TheAllience lmao! I love the youtube trail.

Great voice, well done cover! :D

this is spin tingling

Definitely Anthony Callea. Mark Spano's voice didn't have the fabulous low notes that Anthony's voice at the beginning of the song.

wow... the boy... Can I fall in love with him? ;D

@waly93 Awesome, thx so much, I bought the singles as soon as I got your msg :D...

@TheAllience RIGHT?!?! thats exactly what happened to me, except i was lookin up songs on addictions, and i saw his "addicted to you" video. He's awesome though, im glad i discovered him

al 2:06 se le sale un gallote, pero canta re bien el chavo!! FELICIDADES!!

The best

do yourselves a favour go and listen to his Backbone CD the arrangements of these songs hes covered are spin tingling especially the Whitney Hustons song and Celions songs but then Unpretty you know his own written song Backbone it a fantastic Cd and one more what he did to Sometimes the Brittany spears song oh dear so strong

Who do you think sung it better, spano or callea? :]

he is so tiny but what a great voice!!!

and that matters why??

what do you mean by "Choco stabber"?????

❤️

I'd definitely buy this if it was a single... i love Mariah, but her version pales in comparison with Anthony's rendition...

he sings well but I think this not enough to such a song. Actually I don't really like singers of our time, the voice is the most important now, but to me, the feelings you put in a song when you perform it is VERY important. You asked "what more du you want?". Well, I want feelings on songs, and according to me, he did not give a lot of feellings. I don't oblige you to be agree with me, I respect your opinion so please respect mine. thanks for your reply ! :-D
