@@waltergutierrez7122 Then why didn't he get through? I wanna know. I mean you can have your opinion about his voice, I don't care. I think we can all agree that he was a good guy though.
Simon genuinely felt for James because James has that aura of a really good person around him, you can tell that he truly thought that his singing would be good enough.
Even though he didn’t sound good at all, he still remained humble and had a positive attitude all throughout the whole audition. I’m also happy that Randy and Paula apologized to him for laughing.
Ass burgers. @MoonlightBaby - Oh, stop. He's delusional and has no realistic idea of his strengths and weaknesses. The judges were actually very charitable and kind. He deserved a tongue lashing for his arrogance.
How in the hell Simon didn't crack up like Paula and Randy did I'll never know. This "singer" is horrible but seems to be a sweet guy. It's his co-workers who punked him out.
I don't, he knew what he sounded like, or either he is in big denial and others lied to him. either way he should never sing again.................. EVER.
@@insecuredodgeI honestly think these are paid actors for ratings. Notice you don’t see this level of delusion on AGT, BGT, or any of the Got Talent shows, but only on American Idol, X Factor, and other shows with backstage auditions that are not in front of audiences. At least not as often as it appeared on here
I saw this on TV too, with my mom. We were laughing until tears came out, and then we laughed some more. I remember my mom made a comment about the co workers being awful people.
So basically either: 1. His Co-workers thought he could actually sing (?) and so encouraged him to audition for American idol. Which is worrying. Or 2. His Co-workers don't like him and for a laugh, told him he could sing and that he should audition for American idol. Which is worrying. Shame cause he seems like a nice guy. Stupid co-workers.
Just one minor point: it wasn't his choice of "older Christian songs" that wrecked the audition. Some of those tunes are timeless. Go Down Moses, I'll Fly Away, Amazing Grace, It Is Well With My Soul, How Great Thou Art, etc. Those are all great songs, BUT they only sound good if sung by someone who can sing. Mr. Lewis just isn't one of those people.
Look, I know he didn't deserve to progress into the next round, but the laughing really hurt him man, you can tell by how he exited the room. I know he isn't a good singer, but idk you can just see by how he left that he wanted to cry. Imagine thinking you are good at something, only to try to do something with it and being laughed at. I know it's funny for us, but remember his feelings, too.
People who do not understand how they sound and are misled by their friends/family do NOT deserve any sympathy. All he had to do was record himself even just once. There is NOBODY on earth that would think that sounded good, not even himself.
They probably we're trying their hardest not to, but it was a long day for them im sure, and when you get tired that's what some people do sometimes to deal with the stress.
It's sad because it's just like the "pants on the ground" man who was obviously way too old to enter, they got him through this far because they knew it would generate talk and "good tv"
Marisa Green When I was in college over 40 years ago, I worked part time in a bank. At the Christmas party one year, someone gave a thing of deodorant to one of the women that worked there as a present. Of course they didn't put their name on it. thought it was terrible to humiliate her. The moral is this. If there is someone you care about that has a problem whether it is BO, thinking they can sing when they can't, you really do owe it to them to tell them as kindly as possible. It could happen to you. How would you like to have someone give you new underwear and some laundry soap. we all have someone that is need of help and most of us probably do, too.
verlaine tuieta something tells me this is fake. Set up to get tv share. I just dont believe that anybody with common sense who sung like that would really think they had a chance.
he's been in the whole X-Factor, American Idol thing for longer than the the other 2 and after all the wacko's he's seen before I think he's been thru enough to keep a straight face :-)
i think that sometimes he think that this people do this things on purpose, u know? to make people laugh, and not, unintentional like other peoples that think that they are doing right and not is wrong, but in true they are actually making a mess and making people laugh without intention
Meecy Griffin Maybe they were kidding and he didn't realize. One thing TH-cam has taught me is that a surprising number of people don't understand sarcasm. Option B. They're as bad as he is. They did all get hired at the same place...

How in the hell Simon didn't crack up like Paula and Randy did I'll never know. This "singer" is horrible but seems to be a sweet guy. It's his co-workers who punked him out.
Simon never ever ever makes fun of mentally challenged people..
Sarahh M is naivety considered mental illness? Although he did sound like a sped when he sang but that’s just cuz he sucks lmao
Dude he’s clearly very slow.
Simon is trying to be serious about this guy, but in the inside, he’s crying laughing.

There is one positive to this audition. If he ever loses his tour guide job he can easily find work as a boat foghorn.

Sound like one too lol
I feel so sorry for him
I don't, he knew what he sounded like, or either he is in big denial and others lied to him. either way he should never sing again.................. EVER.
I wouldn't either, considering he's likely an actor and was paid for his "performance".

Just one minor point: it wasn't his choice of "older Christian songs" that wrecked the audition. Some of those tunes are timeless. Go Down Moses, I'll Fly Away, Amazing Grace, It Is Well With My Soul, How Great Thou Art, etc. Those are all great songs, BUT they only sound good if sung by someone who can sing.
