It's a wonderful world (if you vote for Tongi!) Lulu's Fantasy Show: linktr.ee/cluelesslulu John X Lulu Wicked Fun: linktr.ee/johnxlulu

We were all in a wonderful world during the duration of Iam’s performance❤️You made Braddah Iz proud toko!! You made us here in Hawai’i proud❤️ You making all of our Polynesian culture proud!!❤️

Yes! Brother IZ immortalized that song. Iam did it honor though. What a great performance! #Aloha #Hawaii❣

Wrong, Iam! You made the whole Kamakawiwo'ole 'ohana & Hawaiʻi nei proud! Keep your head up high son! I guarantee my cousin was singing with you on stage.

He did good!!! Making us so proud!!! 🫶🫶🫶🫶

I love how genuine your reaction is. And i 💯 agree with the stroking of the ego comment. He is a humble kid with a tremendous gift, and he won't forget his humble beginnings. Team Iam Tongi

He went from traditional to braddah iz then back to traditional, it was amazing and I'm glad he thru that in there.

I dont know how many times I watch all his songs over and overrrrr again 👌❤️

Wonderful tribute to Bruddah Iz 🤙🏽

Love your reactions & your honest comments..i can agree to the concern that too much stroking his ego might go to his head. Hopefully Iam stays true to himself & just brings out the joyous vibes w/his voice! Mahalo u 2...you are a delight to watch! Love you Iam! ❤❤

He doesn't need to worry about doing it "as well" as IZ. He doesn't need to try and be the next IZ, he needs to be the first Iam, and he's doing that pretty darn well. I'll lose my sh*t if he channels IZ again and does Over the Rainbow.

It showed that Iam was nervous doing this song because of how amazing Iz's rendition is and how big it is in Iam's culture because of it. But I'm so glad he did pick it. I LOVE More than Words and I really want to hear Iam do it, but he needed to step into that spot of light that Iz is shining on him and begin to move out of his shadow and into his own spotlight. He needs to be his own, but he also wants to bring that part of him with him that is the same part that made Iz so unique.

Lionel did tell IAM at the beginning of this journey…He will fracture souls…and how he has!

hes such an amazing singer....wow

Our family is Team Iam Tongi here in Alabama, U.S.A. ❤

He totally reminded me of Bradda IZ from his Audition, there is no kid from Hawaii who can sing like IAM that could do no harm to this song. CHEEEWHOOO!

Brudah Iam just did Brudah IZ so proud! Iam for the WIN

You both do a great job of reacting to Iam's music. You're fun to watch and always nail it.

His voice is so soothing ❤🎉

The world needs a voice and person like bruddah IAM as he is the new amd different this generations IZ

Awwww John you touched my heart wiping your tear away. Iam's voice is so soothing and wonderful that it captures the heart of many. He makes us FEEL him when he is singing.

I honestly love you both. Your reactions are just awesome. Thank you for being yourselves. This was a great reaction to Iam Tongi. One love from Australia

This dude makes me feel bad for all the people who are deaf that never get to hear and feel music from people like him.

The spirit of IZ is in Iam.

Silky smooth, no stress!! I could listen to him all day.

Iam Tongi's Audition Is The Most-Viewed Of 2023 Season Tongi's audition has been viewed more than two hundred thousand times on Idol's KZfaq and more than 100 million across all of social media.

Finally! I been waiting for your reviews 🎉

I hope that ABC airs Iam singing More than Words for Katy. There's a Hawaiian version that I'm absolutely sure Iam would knock out of the park as well.

Thanks you guys! I have nothing to say but thanks for support him in your channel. and amazing feedback powerful words to more encourage him never give up his dream.He is on his way even he will not make it to the top another word winner but already a 🌟 Thank you so much for the support ❤️❤️❤️💔💔💔🌟

Thank you for showing the judges comments. I really love hearing them. Iam is so good from the first note. LOVE YOUR SHOW! :) thanks

IAM is already a winner in our books. This young star is a godsend angel. Rendition by IZ is timeless. He’s rocking a nice Aloha shirt. 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Tongi,❤you have torn down my walls that have been using for years to protect me from being hurt again, I understand and I am protective of every little step I have made, I am more than overjoyed to your helping me ❤ I am a throwaway person, no one loves me,and no one wants me,but your music makes feel that I can get up and be strong and weather the ”storms ahead " so I truly tell ty and bless you .❤

Well done! Equally very good as IZ rendition. I feel the Hawaiian vibes. Very tropical!!!

Cette chanson et merveilleuse et il a chante avec le cœur et c est magnifique ❤❤ bravo Tongy 👏👏

Yessssaaaah. .. Iam for the win! Love watching your reaction videos!

🎉way to go brah. Keep up the great work! Mahalo

Looooovvee how fast y’all post reactions 😍🥰

Love you guys ❤

I think he was afraid to not do what a wonderful world justice but also, maybe he doesn’t want to be Brahdah IZ. He wants to be Iam.

Yayyy Awesome reaction u guys your a Winner Iam Tongi Congrats 😍😍

Tears in my eyes too❤❤❤

Y’all quick with the react :D Aloha from Hawai’i

Itʻs funny how people in the Islands automatically think of Israel Kamakawiwoʻoleʻs iconic rendition, while people not from the Islands think of Louis Armstrongʻs even older and original classic song, and a lot of people are not even aware of the other version. I understand Iamʻs hesitancy to take on Bruddah IZʻs song because so many comparisons are made between them, but I guess itʻs still a good way to share music from Hawaiʻi and classic popular songs that Iam grew up with. "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p8ylqpZ0v7fZp58.html "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World" by Israel Kamakawiwoʻole - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iKqalZR-ybvNd3k.html

It's a Wonderful World with Iam in it👍👌❤❤❤

I think he did Braddah IZ proud in his own way

Love this couple… 👌❤️ love watching your pot-cast to :-) 👌❤️

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤loved it

❤ loved it

This song is elementary school graduation vibes. For anyone over 40.😂

"What a wonderful world" is slower than "More than Words". Katy is right that he should still perform MORE THAN WORDS bc that is top 20 best songs of all time especially with those lyrics. I wish he performed that and stuck to his guns and social media is saying the same thing.. However, he nailedt this as usual and it was special, SPECIAL, special like he is.

Spread the "Aloha" to the world. We surely need all the "Love and Aloha" now days. Hello Neighbor! !

IAM Is Wearing A Aloha Shirt, In Hawaii It’s Called Aloha Shirt It’s Not Called Hawaiian Shirt In Hawaii Ever ! Aloha Shirt ! Mahalo For The Awesome Video ! ❤

Aloha shirt

6:43 “I know your being critical following…” Luke was thinking of saying Israel Kamakawiwo’ole but he said nah Im not even gonna try 😂😂

Nailed it🤙!!

You two are beautiful 🙂 But yes, that was awesome.

Fast to react...Yayyyy!! Iam did a Great job combining Louis Armstrong version and Israel Kamakawiwo'ole version and creating The Iam version! I love your guys' reaction! Go Iam❤️👍🤙

Classic .

BTW, in Hawaii we call them Aloha shirts, not Hawaiian shirts. 🤙

Yes over da rainbow please

When the judges all agree he alredy won mic🎤drop

His wearing A Aloha Shirt !

❤

Izzy the best. But let me introduce you to a Korean vocalist named “ Kim Jin Ho” performing “ family portrait” incredibly impactful and when the camera panned into the audience, there wasn’t a dry eye! And this guys voice with its subtle nuances and celestial qualities will have you hooked from beginning to end. How he despised his mom in the beginning but loved her in the end-knowing she sacrificed everything so he could have a better life. I predict this song and vocalist will become one of you all-time favorites. I’ve watched it several times and each time it impacted me to my core. Everyone I’ve recommended this to, said they spent far to much on Kleenex. Please KZfaq the live immortal songs one ( KBC K pop). And so far it’s received over 47 MILLION views!!!!!! You will thank me. He joins Dimash as one of my top 5 male vocalists still performing. Al l love from Miami Beach , Florida, Al

I’m actually hoping he does over the rainbow like IZ

.✨💖✨ Aloha. Enjoy your React videos! I’d like to Add that towards the end of Bruddah IZ’s “Somewhere Over The Rainbow” video, where Friends and Family are gathering in Canoes, Surfboards and Beautiful Leis in the ocean… They are Scattering IZ’s Ashes in the waters of Makaha Beach where IZ Loved So Dearly and spent most of life there. His ashes are in a large Koa bowl. Keep up your Awesome videos! And Hopefully you will come Home from Hawaii’s 9th Island. (Las Vegas) Hawaii has 8 islands Mahalo, Craig 😊💕🤙

IAM for the win ❤

Your right. Judges need to be a little careful. We love Iam!!!!

You need to watch the movie Meet Jack Black. Iz song is in there and what a great movie it was. Must see

Meet Jack Black is a great love story that will make you cry.

It’s called Aloha Shirt

He will stay humble. He doesn’t talk do much

Damn, Iam's voice is out of this world. But yeah, Lulu's nips are wonderful too.

Clueless is so appealing.

How's only fans

"Satiated with Iam"? Or did you intend to say "Infatuated with Iam"? (I don't think that I'll ever be satiated with Iam's performances. I'll always hunger for more.)

I think that he is so over rated...He is a good performer but not extraordinarily so...For me it's all hype because it seems that some people are pushing for him to win. Generally,people often go for the underdog.
