Stuck on You" is a song written and originally recorded by American singer and songwriter Lionel Richie. It was the fourth single released from his second studio album, Can't Slow Down, released in June 1984, by Motown,[1] and achieved chart success, particularly in the US and the UK, where it peaked at number three and number 12, respectively. "Stuck on You" reached number one on the Adult Contemporary chart, Richie's seventh chart topper.[2]
I was there live for this! Got a picture with iam too!! The sounds of crowd hearing from the video don’t even do it justice. He had the crowd EXPLODING!!!! So good
It's the love that comes from within that makes him magical. He loves what he does, and music of the islands is what makes us who we are as Polynesians.
This is another island classic jam! Never knew it was a Lionel Richie's song, until Iam performed it 😂 You should check out the island reggae rendition of "Stuck on You" by Ekolu which inspired Iam's performance. As always love and appreciate your reaction to Iam Tongi!! All of us Polynesians are so proud!!🤙🏽🇹🇴
Everyone, keep voting him all the way to the top! We need this guy’s music. He’s literally connecting us all thru music….so hard to do and yet, here we all are forgetting our differences, problems, etc.
Iam is just pure Magic!! I love that he started with Lionel’s version and transitioned into Ekolu’s version ❤ I’ve grown up listening to the original and the local (Hawaiian style) love them equally. But Iam deserves the world and I wish him nothing but the best! Definitely check out Ekolu where his performance was inspired from!
He gets better and better , any problems you have in life , are out the window when you listen to Iam… he just lightens up your sole …. Amazing !!!!!🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Omg...I was at a restaurant for a birthday dinner and as I was watching Iam's performance a waitress from behind me was like, "Omg he is so good, I watched his audition." Yes, everyone is talking about this kid. I'm so proud of his progress in the American Idol. 😊
Iam Tongi 💯 🎶 Most natural beautiful voice SUPERSTAR ⭐️ Smiling are you eyes are shining bright...your confidence shows on the BIG STAGE ! LOVE LOVE IT ! Great Story Teller Great artist Voice is a magnet that voice that takes you somewhere else....leaves you so calm and serene
Every time he gets on that stage it’s like being at a Iam Tongi concert! He’s just on a different level from all the rest. I love this young man. My grandsons also went to school with him in Kahuku, Oahu. Home of the mighty Red Raiders!! 🤙🏽❤️🤍
Thank you so much for your reaction love n support our Angel Superstar IAM Tongi is really Amazing Incredible God's Given Miracle Magical Wonderful Singer Outstanding performance Beautiful performance thank you again for your reaction n your love to our Boy IAM.
Hau'oli La Hanau (Happy Birthday) Dennis!! Cheers to many more... Mahalo for your genuine interest and aloha for our Polynesian music. Iam has set the bar and introduced our music to the world! Love your reactions.
Iam is so full of heart. His faith is helping him grow confidence he never thought he’d gain in the right moments. His father is most definitely right behind him. Great reaction bruv 🤙🏾🙏🏾🇺🇸🇼🇸🇦🇸🇹🇴🩸🌺🌈🌴
ahahahahahahah. I LOVE it that you got the irony of the fly and Iam's eyes twinkling about it. You and I are in complete agreement about Iam and Oliver. THANKS for your great reaction. :0)
Last night 7 hours after he performed he already had a 177k views 130k more then the next closest contestant. He is absolutely amazing give me the chills every time he sings !
💯💯💯💯💯 Homeboy is gaining great confidence on stage as he progresses. Great reggae twist on an awesome tune. Best of luck to y’all contestants. 🤙🤙🤙🤙🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇦🇸🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴🇹🇴
Merci Denis grave réaction, belle performance ,belle harmonie avec l orchestre wow belle voix ,et un plaisir de le voir sourire , c est fou comme ts le monde l adore et moi aussi bon travail Tongi ❤😍💯💯❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥👏👏👏👏.
Ian works his magic AGAIN!! Pure talent, soul to soul. (Took me 2 hours to figure out last night there wasn’t voting last night. 🥴 They all sang. Y’all please keep VOTING!! PS. Happy birthday!
THE FLYYY, THE FLYYY 😅😅😅 Iam owns it. It's a paradise, an oasis watching and listening to him on stage. He kind of showed some innocence when Ryan said his name, he got extremely excited like a kid and yes Dennis, think Seacrest went to the doctor and checked his chest out after that banger hug 😂😂😂 Completely agree with Luke, GOD GAVE HIM THE MAGIC 🙌💫🌠🌈
This is definitely an epic choice of song with a reggae twist I could listen to him singing this song all day, I’ve been waiting for this reaction since I watched the performance yesterday.
Again, love ya reaction 💯 can i just say, watch the original so then you can understand how Iam made it his own own. You mention the vibe, yes...sang it with the poly style vibe (Island reggae). The original is a classic love song, but love the way Iam brought to life...cocktail & girl on the beach like you said 😂love it 💯💕💕
This was a Hawaii staple type of song. You gotta look up “stuck on you” by Ekolu. I believe this is what Iam was doing a cover of more than Lionel Richie’s version.
Happy birthday to you. We share the same birth date. I only wish I was 44 again! 😀. I’ll be 61. Truly enjoy your reactions. Keep up the good work and let’s go Iam!!
Thanks for the impact the vibes from this kid music. Wow the connection people's to each other through in his music Lord this kid will change others out there don't have feeling or love to anyone. This kid music the President of Russia Putty he needs Tongi music his music bring people's together. his passion presents vibes man this kid is special❤️❤️❤️❤️ I will listen to his music all day long.malo lava.plese vote for him..I want to see him for 2023 American idol winner.
Katy was spot on... it is the Iam Tongi show. He is the ONLY reason I tune in to American Idol. Although he is singing covers, he is doing it such that they don't sound like covers.
Your comments about how you connect with everything Iam does i think comes down to he is a natural , good storyteller. On top of his awesome and honest voice of course!
I'm from Hawaii, and I can guarantee the whole island is supporting him. He's making Hawaii proud. I think he will be the next Hawaii's Bradda Iz. He will be Bradda Iam ❤❤🤗🌺🏝
America. This is what is all about. grate talent.beautiful human being and unbelievable affection that sucks you in with every song he sings. Definitely One of kind and enjoying the ride with him cause this kind of phenomenon don't come very often enjoy him America as much I do! I am!!!
Nice to see the support from all these strong male role models behind him. As Iam is also impacted Dea lives, its ok to show their emotions. Empowermen movement right ✅️ there. BLESSINGS 🙌 🙌
I suggest you also make a video on the first original reggae, Stuck On You by Eddie Lovette in 1985. Others followed, like Ekolu of Hawaii later on in the years 😊. Hear them to see how Iam’s version is in comparison. 🙏🏼 Appreciate your views very much! Thank you. My vote is on Iam Tongi to win.

Bahaha... like yourself, the first thing I noticed was the fly & it's superb timing 👌too good, too good. Adding a bit of unexpected comedy to his performance just increased the fun, light & airy feels of his song. His journey on American Idol has been a bit of an unexpected rollercoaster but he appears to have risen to the challenge along the way & kept his authenticity. Iam "malohi lahi ange kiate koe" 🤜🤛
Your killin me with you not knowing the ABBA song and now saying you never heard of Stuck on You 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏻♀️🤣🤣 lol still love your commentary on these songs lol I won’t hold it against you
I was so excited to see your reaction of Iam's Monday night performance and then you said you've never heard "Stuck on you" by Lionel Richie. Like WHAT in the ACTUAL *you know what*. That is atrocious to even say out loud like OMG. And ohhh, that fly was a nuisance all night but was only stuck on Iam during his performance. Others it was flying around them #lmao
Thank you for sharing your reaction! Especially voting for Iam & Oliver. They started this journey together & shares similarities with their relationship with their fathers. I loved the duel performance they did together. They had each other’s back. Iam needs that kind of friend during the competition. Thank you..I also voted for both of them last week. I was very happy they both made it in the top 12! Beautiful performance last night!!! The crowd went wild!!! Iam has a lot of love in his soul in his performances! Good to see him having a lot of fun especially during last nights fly entertainment lol 😂 Ryan was so funny! And Katie.. so hilarious 😂 couldn’t happen at a good time when Iam was still on stage lol
