yeah the new song promotes hatred and apartheid , its dangerous crap and now Stan tatted himself up to the max with snakes and demons , looks like he sold his soul to someone..
A voice that gets your attention is one thing but a voice like Stan Walkers captivates the soul. Makes you wanna cry because its so beautiful. That's more than a voice. Its a gift. What a wonderful way to represent all Polynesians.
he is one beautifully blessed human being. you can tell he has a very warm heart and it projects through his voice. God bless you Stan. AOTEAROA REPPIN !!
@29Feb sober you're in the chats on his new video choose commenting about him. For someone who comes off as a jealous piece of shit, you sure are all over his videos commenting. Stalker much? Yep. You'd probably drink his bath water you creepy weirdo.
Heir apparent I would t call Annie crummier a nobody I mean yeah is she a superstar like Beyoncé and the rest of them no but don’t discredit or belittle all the work she has done for a pacific woman she is quite well known 🖕🏼🖕🏼 #buthurt
@Heir apparent ... You probably hate birthday parties and little kids and shit, don't ya? You probably wake up with immediate negative thoughts when ya wake up true? 😂
@Storm November Piss off you deluded twat...no-one believes your voice is fit for anywhere but the shower, (careful though, your girlie squeals would probably break the glass).
I voted for him many times.. he was the last aussie idol winner yes? Fantastic voice. Just read he had a serious bout with cancer but thankfully survived.. wish all the best for him x
Fantastic voice and look what happened, he's still going strong now, 12 years later! He was humble and lovely back then, and he hasn't changed, despite all the fame and success.
@@ThiefOfBaghdad Sorry, but you are incorrect on this one. Stan was born in Melbourne, Australia which makes him an Australian. Glad we could clear this one up for you.
Even after everything he was going through and has been through, the loneliness, the isolation, this performance shows he had what it takes by the grace of God alone
Heavenly voice. I have ALL his albums and my best chop of his conquest of Australian Idol was hi rendition of "nothing else matters". That was beyond great!
The greatest thing about this audition is that the judges actually thought he was going to be some crazy guy singing horribly and instead he blew them away.
I first learned of Stan watching his documentary of him going through cancer and about his family and heritage. I also just watched an interview he did 2 months ago. Praise God that he's doing great health and career wise- God bless you from NYC!! 😄🤗💗💐
I love how he's just himself. He's known not to be an asshole. I love how people on the comment thread are obsessed with his sexuality like they're invested in it. I don't blame you he's quite impressive.
Really great talent and loved seeing him singing in worship too. Beautiful vocals and like his shyness, he seems like quite a humble young man. refreshing to see.
Stan is one of the best nz singers his voice is amazing look at how much he has achieved since winning the Australian x factor he is still successful till this day cant say that about other x factor winners or idol winners even though stan has been through alot with his cancer n stuff he still finds time to sing for christchurch wat a man when I watched Australian idol I knew stan was going to win I just had a feeling and I was right
Back here again listening to Stans amazing voice & watching his youthful innocence. He was 100% right, this did change his life but I bet he didn't expect how much it changed his life. He's a fabulous singer who has grown in leaps & bounds ka pai Stan nga mihi nui
When I met Stan a few years ago at Pacific Fair in the Gold Coast, I said “Hi John Legend!” He then stared at me for a few seconds wondering what I was going on about lol 😆 Then finally he clicked, I was talking about this audition for idol, because it was years ago & he’s done lots since then. He then laughed it off, he was still down to earth but he had lost a lot of weight & had short blonde hair. He still looked ok though, we were both with our partners when I met him. We chatted for ages so he’s very friendly & didn’t mind chatting to random fans just walking past & saying hi 👋🏼 you rock Stan 👍😊
Stan Walker is an Australian born person of Maori descent so you New Zealanders/Kiwis and Australians/Ozzies needs to stop fighting and just appreciate the fact that both countries appreciate the talent that they both raised. End of discussion!
gay gay gay gay....what the hell do any of you guys know what gay looks like? He's got impressive chops, looks good, like his style of music. Couldn't give two youtube trolls whether he bangs men or women.
hey idiot, actually he is not gay. plus whether he is gay or not, why would you care? like seriously, do you have to judge someone before you even get to really know the guy. I think you should get more of a brain or something, cause people like you should be ashamed of themselves. plus if he was gay, he would still get more girls then you.......
I feel like whenever I watch one of these clips from an Australian talent or vocal completion, the judges/audience are very critical and slow to give praise, even when the contestant is clearly gifted. It's like there is a latent resentment toward talented people there, even while they are being admired. And I've even heard stars from Australia say they left for the same reason.
This Friendzee is AN UNBELIEVABLE SINGER ! Wow way to go Stan you are so talented! What a voice, the 5 Little Doggies would love to sing with you one day :)))
Ur the man bro.!!!..look where uv been, wat uv achieved.. most recently bn thru personally. Ur still here, still the man, putting it down for Aotearoa....!.nga mihi
I just wanted to go back in time to were you started your journey it is now 2024 an you have come along way you are a amazing artist. Much ❤ from East Coast Gizzy Town Aotearoa❤❤.
I like coming back here every now and again to listen to this amazing audition.
To see how far he has come and evolved since then is priceless.
he got take out by demons , covered in tats now and pushing for special rights for maori , hes a separatist
I remember seeing this & falling in love with his voice. Years later and he’s still dominating Australia and New Zealand radio waves
One of the best voices ever to come out of New Zealand! Straight beast!
Bokstar Bokstar maybe he should go in his own countries Idol.
ours finished long before his audition and win here, oh well :)
Hard
@@b.bstube6588 bro hell destroy them with at unique voice that's why he came 2 urs lol
G is that you jordyn?
My band opened for Stan in Taupo, New Zealand not long after he won Idol. What an absolutely blessed talent, professional on stage and nice guy
And all these years later, Stan's original song, "I Am", was debuted to an audience of millions on CBS Mornings in America.
Love you Stan.
fkn chur to that
yeah the new song promotes hatred and apartheid , its dangerous crap and now Stan tatted himself up to the max with snakes and demons , looks like he sold his soul to someone..
I reakon he sometimes watches this every now and then and just cracks up at where it all began haha
I know I do.
Wow!! I never knew this is how he started!!
So hard to believe this is our Stan. So amazing once he started singing you couldn’t feel his nerves❤️
Fr❤
hahahaha I love Stan he is still the silly same old, repeating the name "John Legend" in different maori accents
So feeling it...that's why he can sing anything
Um.. Yeah ok
What
"john legend john leegend john- john lahgend haha🤭" lmaooo
A voice that gets your attention is one thing but a voice like Stan Walkers captivates the soul. Makes you wanna cry because its so beautiful. That's more than a voice. Its a gift. What a wonderful way to represent all Polynesians.
Much respect. And he even doubts himself. A true artist
OMG! To see the evolution of this guy is just incredible! Love him!
Feel sorry for the person that went next.
Jonatiger - Transformice Survivor hahah true that lmao
Jonatiger - Transformice Survivor no shit lol dammm haha
Jonatiger - Transformice Survivor why
sens army 2017 probably cause Stan took the Stage
Jonatiger - Transformice Survivor
I saw him as a judge on X Factor New Zealand. Wow. Is this guy fantastic. Great rendition.
he is one beautifully blessed human being. you can tell he has a very warm heart and it projects through his voice. God bless you Stan. AOTEAROA REPPIN !!
Such a talented young dude & is even better vocally now. Like a fine wine.
I love how he was so nervous before going in and when talking to the judges, but once he started singing he was so mellow. Right in his element.
i bet he never thought then hed be opening act for BEYONCE

@Storm November Piss off you deluded twat...no-one believes your voice is fit for anywhere but the shower, (careful though, your girlie squeals would probably break the glass).
What I love about Stan is he doesn’t change his personality or how he speaks for anyone 👍 so down to earth but incredibly talented 👍
when i first saw this audition on TV, we all knew it was over...
+Ryan Amor Yup
+Ryan Amor That was pretty much the thought I had when I first saw the audition.
awh, baby Stan. Look how far he's come :) And he's still the same.
I voted for him many times.. he was the last aussie idol winner yes? Fantastic voice. Just read he had a serious bout with cancer but thankfully survived.. wish all the best for him x
Fantastic voice and look what happened, he's still going strong now, 12 years later! He was humble and lovely back then, and he hasn't changed, despite all the fame and success.
"It's gonna change my life..." His, Guy Sebastian's & Jessica Mauboy's. Best singers to come out of Australian Idol.
Peter Ryan hands down
And it did ❤
I love looking back at this audition and seeing how far he’s come and how far he’s gonna go. one of nz best. Proud kiwi
Best comment
One of Australians best. He won Australiar idol, not nz idol. The fuck
@@hisshoss67 he's from New Zealand though, New Zealand is his home lol
@@ThiefOfBaghdad Sorry, but you are incorrect on this one. Stan was born in Melbourne, Australia which makes him an Australian. Glad we could clear this one up for you.
@@clintonyates437 home is where the heart is
Stan Walker is so awesome! My favorite song from him is THANK YOU. One of the best singers of our time.
"He kakano ahau" is my favourite. It will give you chills!
Just gorgeous. He should be so proud of himself.
Julesy S why was he in Australian Idol? Dont they have an New Zealand one?
@@b.bstube6588 bruh just shutup, if he wants to go to Australian idol he can. Their probs wasnt a new Zealand talent show at the time
@@b.bstube6588 cos he lived in Australia at the time tf
he's so humble, he says "like, in it" 3:25 wow ,i'm so happy he has come so far now
Your timestamp game wack asf
That's great! Now look at him! One amazing artist and just proves how a show changes people's lives!
Even after everything he was going through and has been through, the loneliness, the isolation, this performance shows he had what it takes by the grace of God alone
Heavenly voice. I have ALL his albums and my best chop of his conquest of Australian Idol was hi rendition of "nothing else matters". That was beyond great!
I don't know why this made me cry. Stan is awesome and such a great inspiration to never give up on your dreams
“John Legend, John Leegend, John Legaand” - Stan Walker
I can't believe it's been 7 years since I watched this on TV, far out throwback to the days💎😳
I remember me and mum used have the phone ready to vote for stan every time he'd sing lmao, awesome!
Awesome
The greatest thing about this audition is that the judges actually thought he was going to be some crazy guy singing horribly and instead he blew them away.
just watched STAN documentary showing his journey with cancer, a real gem god bless him and his family
awww he's so young! he looks way different now...
he's making beautiful music with The Levites 👍
Shit he's changed heaps now aye
Shit this boy can sing!!! My jaw is wide open!!! Proud Maori right here!!
I first learned of Stan watching his documentary of him going through cancer and about his family and heritage. I also just watched an interview he did 2 months ago. Praise God that he's doing great health and career wise- God bless you from NYC!! 😄🤗💗💐
All you falas calling him gay should see his girlfriend. Probably hotter than any chick yous could get 😂
just probably a metrosexual. more in touch with his feminine side which is actually a good thing when it comes to women.
Probably closet gay or in denial. Having a girlfriend means nothing these days.
This was years ago. .he looks way different now 😂
I love how he's just himself. He's known not to be an asshole. I love how people on the comment thread are obsessed with his sexuality like they're invested in it. I don't blame you he's quite impressive.
But he actually looks and acts gay here though. Maybe he’s bi
And look at you now, Stan!! WOW
Look how far he has come, hes personality was so cool even back then
Really great talent and loved seeing him singing in worship too. Beautiful vocals and like his shyness, he seems like quite a humble young man. refreshing to see.
Judge: “I really thought you were gonna be a CRAZY”
Stan: In his mind “I AM!” 😂

Stan is Australian
He's kiwi not Aussie you muppet
He is from New Zealand
LPS Sirinya and the auzzie are probably thinking he's Australian like how they think Manuka Honey, Pavlovas are from Australia 😂😂😂
Maybe he should have gone on New Zealand Idol? Without Australian where would he be? Huh?
@@b.bstube6588 shut your bum ass up
Poevhgf👅👅😌😌😌😙😙😙👿👿👿👅👅👅👅

I love watching Stans audition, he really has gotten better & better ♥️
