Even now, several years later, I watch Joshua Ledet's performances on American Idol and still now, to this day, I don't understand how he didn't win. Either him or Jessica Sanchez ... they were both sooooooo much better than everyone else.
Joshua stole my heart then and still does every time I hear him sing. He was born to bring sweet passionate music to our ears. Talking about being born to sing, he’s a rare jewel. He is the best of the best performers in the singing industry today. We all know and I know he knows he was the best to ever hit the American Idol stage. Kudos to you Joshua. Still love you baby.
Pretty sure this was the last episode of American Idol I ever watched, cause he got voted off and Phillip Phillips won and I literally hated everything. Just imagine if this guy was releasing albums today.
Yes, I periodically come back to watching his performances. He is such a talented singer and definitely was my favorite. I think he was robbed, I still can't believe that boring Phillip Phillips won, ugh!
Fuck me dead! Joshua set the bar so high even Bubka couldn't vault over it. Man that kid was good. Jessica was outstanding and I loved Candace Glover but Joshua,Joshua,Joshua what a performance. Pure throwback style soul!
Still the WINNER in my opinion! He slayed every single performance and Phillip Phillips wins?? Really? This is why we DO NOT put America in charge of TALENT. Epic Fail 9 times out of 10! Great job Joshua!! All of us here know you should have WON IT ALL.
I wanted him to win and if that didn't happen I was hoping someone would sign him. He's truly a gifted singer and performer. Hopefully we see him again.
The year Joshua Ledet blew away American Idol with all his performances with standing ovations by judges. One of the best vocalist in Idol history. I still cannot believe he came 3rd. Dont know what America is voting. Year 2012 was Joshua's year! The best vocals hands down. Still watching 2020...
How Phillip Phillips won instead of Joshua or Jessica I don't understand it. I honestly think the show is rigged because whenever I tried to call it just said deleted a bunch of times. There is no way Phillip has a better voice than Joshua and Jessica =/
I def agree, Josh made history on that show, there has never been another like him since, he made it hard for me to have a fav every season cuz no one is blowing me away like he did!!
After watching his interview on song association and saying one of the producers didn’t like him which ended up with hI’m getting more “No’s” makes me realize this show was definitely rigged because he is a living icon🙌🏽
@@hassanjumaa7390 Three years later, is there some type of official contract, for such a transaction as selling one's "soul to the devil"? I frequently see posts that express similar ideas.
Yes I've been looking for this, this is one of my fav performances from Josh, he killed it love this version of Etta's song, and I'm sure she would love it too.
Rachel Ruth Gaña That was I thought , only Joshua and jessica every perform they always nailed it, but no matter what happened Joshua and Jessica is the winning.
Joshua Ledet is the most best singer I've ever heard in my whole entire life and I don't know what to say I'm kind of speechless but that performance blew me away he sings like an angel and much more better then anyone could sing and that's just the truth
Shirley honey your statement is full of redundancy. U can't use most and best simultaneously to describe something. They are both superlative forms of adjective which means that sentence is grammatically incorrect. U can't say whole and entire either cause whole means entire so that's another redundancy. On that note, the boy can sing. Have a good day honey. Peace and love from Jamaica.
It has to be one of the best singers of all time if not the best tragedy he never won in my eyes only one winner Joshua ladet sing sing sing man the best
+Le Anh Quoc dung luon dung luonn =)))))))! sau day la cac mua sau cu lui dan thoai hic hic. Mua nay joshua r phillip deandre jessica hat cu fai goi la sieu sieu hayyyyy
This man sang from his soul every time he got on stage. I am a singer and I would love to sing a song with him. You don't hear mainstream singers like this anymore.
Everytime I look back and watch this, my mind is boggled!!! It just goes to show how someone this gifted and talented can purposely be rejected for some mediocre white boy on a guitar. After this particular season, I didn't ever watch again..... #imdone!!!!!

2024 and he is still the best to ever be on American idol
Some are trained, others are taught; Joshua Ledet, God given talent for sure!!!
ANNOINTED
All of the above.
God checks all the boxes.
Also trained but I get ur point ;)
That's why he was invited to perform at the White House. Fantastic.
One of the BEST singers ever on Idol he should’ve won that year
Even now, several years later, I watch Joshua Ledet's performances on American Idol and still now, to this day, I don't understand how he didn't win. Either him or Jessica Sanchez ... they were both sooooooo much better than everyone else.
I was thinking the same thing! I still just don't get it! He should have won!
Me too😊
I so agree
Still sitting here in 2023 and I think he was the winner all the way!
Wow his voice has a mad range! I can hear him singing anything, gospel, r&b, blues and even rock.
I simply don't understand how this guy didn't win. So so good
Yes, you and me too. It just go to show how warped America’s thinking process is.

Yeah there's no place in the multiverse where Phillip Phillips is a better singer or performer than Joshua Ledet
After he got voted off, I stop watching it myself. He left a lasting impression and I wanted to leave it at that.
Anybody else watching this in 2019 and feel like he should've won 🤷🏽♀️
Keisha J He should’ve won...
@@kimrose6665 I know 😣
Pretty sure this was the last episode of American Idol I ever watched, cause he got voted off and Phillip Phillips won and I literally hated everything. Just imagine if this guy was releasing albums today.
Definitely yes!,,, I still listen to him and wonder what he's doin. Pure raw talent

I still don't understand why he didn't win on American idol.....the best ever...Joshua ledet
I understand
He has way more talent than them that is why....
And they cannot handle it
Joshua Ledet is the Best Male Vocalist of this time period without a doubt!
Still the WINNER in my opinion! He slayed every single performance and Phillip Phillips wins?? Really? This is why we DO NOT put America in charge of TALENT. Epic Fail 9 times out of 10! Great job Joshua!! All of us here know you should have WON IT ALL.
Who remembers Phillip Phillips? ??I do not
I love how his eyes sparkled after every performance.....Magnificent talent loved him then love him now
Win ,Lose,or Draw you are the American Idol 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Who is still listening in 2019......Amazing Vocals
I would pay any day to see him in concert and its 2020!!!
HOW IN THE HELL DID THIS KID NOT WIN??
Yes...that was my querry
I don't ever get tired of this boy. Even today I don't know how come he didn't win.
Yesssss this boy right here can sang not sing but sang 👏👏👏👏👏
I wanted him to win and if that didn't happen I was hoping someone would sign him. He's truly a gifted singer and performer. Hopefully we see him again.
OMG I still love me some Joshua Ledet. Best performer I've ever seen on idol. I loved all his performances.

This was THE season
No. Season 3 was the best season. Fantasia (who won), Jennifer Hudson, Paris, and a couple others.
Sorry. I don't know... I didn't watch that one (I was probably 4 or haha...) Then this was the best of the ones I've watched
Trust real soul singer
This was a WHOLE concert right here!!!💯💯💯💯💯
Still having goose bumps in 2019 😍😍
best male vocalist ever born in the 90s yes
One of the very few singers who actually give me REAL chills!!
This is true talent - true gift, and I want more, more, more!!!!! R&B lives on!
How this guy didn't win is beyond insane
He's on another level compared to any other contestant on the show.
He has the soul of our ancestors in that voice. So much emotion and passion... #fan
One of the greatest that has ever walked this earth. Even when he Lost I still watch his performances. Why did he loose ?

I wanted Jessica or Joshua to win!:(
I've wondered this so many times too! It's just baffling to think he was picked over those two!
symmetricalastic same thing i was thinking my cousin should have won
symmetricalastic true
Mr Joshua "Captivating" Ledet
After watching his interview on song association and saying one of the producers didn’t like him which ended up with hI’m getting more “No’s” makes me realize this show was definitely rigged because he is a living icon🙌🏽
Seriously... why is he not famous yet?! He has got EVERYTHING!!!
Natalia Li I still wonder
He is coming from Christian family and nowadays fame is all about sold your soul to the devil

Rachel Ruth Gaña That was I thought , only Joshua and jessica every perform they always nailed it, but no matter what happened Joshua and Jessica is the winning.

What a fantastic VOICE ! I love it 😍
Literally the best talent to be in American Idol
He killed that. So.much talent out there in the world. Artists are not signing PEOPLE like they need too
He should have won!
I'm the same age as him, watched this live , time flies ! Now its 2023 and I'm still here as your biggest fan from Brazil
He is the best of every one over all in every season hes simple the best fr me no winner is no even good like him i wstvh him on u tube all the time
My people it's not the beginning of a thing but the end.He will finish the race n come out on top😜
Agree!!! Best season ever, because of the Great Joshua Ledet!!! Charisma on stage is right on point! Encore!!!
2020 and I still think he should’ve won
Winner,winner he captured your heart every time he opened his mouth and sang not sing I mean sang
Watched so many people sing this sing on so many singing competitions, but no one does this song justice like Joshua Ledet.
Oh jashwa you super born to sing
Joshua wow again can't stop stop listening to you sing, luv you
my favorite idol & my fave set of judges. ❤
He is and will be the king
he is pass amazing oh my goodness
past ... not pass
Louisianan IS VERY PROUD OF YOU.
ashamed that i could ever forget how powerful of a voice this boy has! unbelievable talent
It has to be one of the best singers of all time if not the best tragedy he never won in my eyes only one winner Joshua ladet sing sing sing man the best
Joshua you are the chosen one.
And he wasn't the only monster singer in that season. Best batch of talent ever in the history of AI. 2 future winners didn't even make the top 24.
best season ever ever ever ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

I love the way he sing this song Etta would love it
His voice gives me chills🙂
2024 and it’s still doesn’t get old! He’s bad, bad!
Not only will I throw my shoe at him but I would take other people shoe off their feet to throw at him for that ending...Awesome as hell
This man sang from his soul every time he got on stage. I am a singer and I would love to sing a song with him. You don't hear mainstream singers like this anymore.
Everytime I look back and watch this, my mind is boggled!!!
It just goes to show how someone this gifted and talented can purposely be rejected for some mediocre white boy on a guitar.
After this particular season, I didn't ever watch again.....
#imdone!!!!!
My bones are still shaking with every performance! I love you and jes!
