You are correct but another layer to this beauty is that for his people in Hawaii he is like the second coming of Bruddah IZ. You will greatly enjoy IZ’s rendition of “somewhere over the rainbow/ a wonderful world”
@macmirez9508 I love Iz (Israel) Over the rainbow. I know that Iam Tongi also knew that it was Israel 's signature song . And, yes Iam is a natural at that song. It breaks 💔 heart to see Iz sing that song in his middle age with oxygen 💔. The LORD will return soon and take us up, please "Don't say goodbye 🙏 ", by over eating and under exercising. I'm praying for you, and please pray for him if you read this.
He voice is pure and beautiful. Iam has captured the whole world with his music. I listen to him non stop all day everyday. Go get it young man, you deserve it. God bless you and your family. Monster is my favorite.
In a World where we are impressed by wealth , fame , and loud false voices we get Iam Tongi .We Should really listen and ask ourselves Why .Its a pure voice coming from heart And spirit . It's time we Start to listen to inspiring voices from The heart And ignore The desperate absurdities we hear so often from lying power seekers. Allow them to enter into oblivion and engage in somwthing worthwhile: Pure Tongi aloha spirit for those tired of foul messages from you know where. .
His connection w/ the audience is Great!!! They love everything about him! His voice, his charm, his style of music and so much more. I hope this young man goes straight to the top, but is protected!! Stays the same!!! He's too special to ruin!!! I'm so happy for him. I know he's doing this for his Dad. Broke my heart that Idol show when his guitar his Dad bought for him broke n he was so upset!! But he was a pro n did great!!!
This kid is not only talented with a beautiful voice but he has a beautiful soul too! When he sings it feels like he is singing to you or just for you. He is a special human. So glad he won Idol! ❤❤
Gosh It angers me that people are so negative about him I love him it’s obvious that everybody in the crowd adores him they’re screaming so loud we can barely hear him sing. That speaks volumes in itself about what a profound effect this young man has on people. God bless him
He won because he is great singer and person. People are so use to country singers winning AMERICAN IDOL, and can’t handle someone who won doesn’t sing country . Don’t get me wrong I like country music but lets broaden our horizons people God Bless you Iam
Being from Hawaii and not feeling the family with me, and hearing him the first time with monsters, and all my family losses just this year, I've not gone 1 day without being a bawling idiot. Go get em Iam! You remind me of Hawaii's previous stars and the forever missing Aloha that follows you! You carry the torch now for your "family" and Lord knows, you deserve it! Keep flying high my love. This family member wishes I met you. You remind me of my nephew. Still in that beautiful paradise, we call home. Love you...
His voice is so effortless and beautiful. He makes me cry everytime he sings. He was my fave from the beginning of American Idol. The fans got it right. He is amazing! ❤
Iam Tongi delivers beautiful heartfelt songs to us, he is going to be in stressful times, hope his mom or uncle help him with infusing healthy food and drinks during his tour, he's not going to have time for himself, GOD bless Iam Tongi, thank you for this channel❤
Watching all the way from Aotearoa New Zealand i hope u tour our country while I'm still here definitely go and see you angel voice god bless IAM Tongi and all your whanau family the fan's in Nashville are cheering u all the way can't help but love Aroha this young boy singing ❤❤
I just love I AM don’t you?!!! He is such a super star! I wonder how he has adjusted to the fame-it’s amazing! I’m glad I have finally quit crying! It was crazy- all I had to do was watch him sing and I’d just cry!❤ I’ll probably cry again!
Wow Iam. I can't say anything that you haven't already heard. I listen to you soothing beautiful voice & I takes me to a place I haven't felt for Alin time. You are the foster child for the World spreading your voice. God put you on this earth just when we needed you!!!!
So proud of Iam!!! Captivated this audience just as always!!! Not sure I ever heard a bar in Nashville this quiet and attentive! (Proud of my Tennesseans too). I think #JasonIsbell would be honored to hear Iam sing his cover, and am so proud Iam knew who wrote and sang the song! (Most beautiful cover of “Cover Me Up” YET.) We love you Iam!!!
This Talented Young Man Has To Be The Most Humble Man I've Ever Seen & Heard! And So Genuine & Compassionate! The Biggest Thing Is That IAM Will Always Be This Way, No Matter How Wealthy & Famous He's Going To Be! He's A Good Man And Then Some!👍🥇❤🏆😇
God bless you Iam, may you be protected and may you always have the support you so well deserve. A light in these dark times. Always with love and respect little brother. ❤
Wow..these new songs...just beautiful. He is so sweet and loving and funny. He truly emulates Aloha at the purest level.He's got the golden voice...So glad his Mom signed him up for AI....he is a blessing❤
Came across this while eating breakfast....hard to do when getting choked up....😢 Iam your voice is so plugged into your heart......❤ You are just pure gold... Tina
This young man's voice, warmth, and the deserved adulation with which his audiences offer, is reminiscent of how Elvis Presley burst on the scene three quarters of a century ago. I also think, just as Presley did, he'll go on to record dozens of albums, from Christmas, to Country, to Gospel, to who knows what else. God speed Iam and aloha...
I was thinking the same thing about when Elvis Presley "burst on the scene" with his unique snd awesome talent.. this young man has the same qualities, he has that same " star power " He's wonderful stay tuned everybody!
Descubrí a Iam casualmente. Descubrí a alguien que Dios envió para mostrarnos lo que toda persona había olvidado que tiene: Amor. Iam nos lo está haciendo recordar...🤍👍
So Heartfelt😊❤ Singing from his Heart always. What a beautiful way to touch the Hearts of people in his audience. He touches many with his voice. Love him. 🎉🎉❤ A young man who has a Heart of Gold. Making Hawaii and the World proud.🤙🤙🤙🙏🙌🫶
Beautiful young spirit. I teared up during Iam’s American Idol audition, and I still do. Success to you, Iam. I hope you achieve your dream to live back in Hawaii, and have a long and happy life.
“Where do I go from Here” those lyrics just touch my soul…such a talented young man🥲beautiful song 🎶 to my sister in the Heavens I think of you every time I listen to IAM singing “I’ll Be Seeing You”😇🌥️
Brings back memories of 'Iz' Israel Kamakawiow'ole the amazing Hawaian singer from 25 years ago. It's lovely to see Hawaii can proudly raise its head again after the sad demise of Iz. With such an instant and lovable man he will no doubt will have a wonderful career for life making many people very happpy. Let us all hope he can live a long life by changing his diet by hiring a good dietician.... It would be so sad to lose this wonderful talent and just be left with memories...
Proud of you iam!!! Your voice is amazing!! God bless you! May GOD keep you covered with his precious blood!!! 😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏you go brah!! Reach for the star's💥💥💥always remember your hard work paid off! Can't get enough of your singing👏👏👏👏👏👏👏yessah🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💋💋💋
Loved him from his first audition song! (Made me cry fir my Dad too) I pray his success will allow him and his family to move back to Hawaii where he loves and belongs. He definitely shares the Aloha. Love you Iam
I absolutely love IAm Tongi he is totally awesome and so real as well as down to earth. Every song he sings “He makes it better !! I never liked the the sounds of silence until IAm sang it and now i listen to that song every day with Iam singing it !! I love your Hair all natural Iam it is just You !

Still gives me chills to hear him sing... he is gifted with sincere talent.
Iam has such an incredibly beautiful, powerful and unique voice. He is one of a kind and a talent like his is quite simply unforgettable.

Iam doesnt need fancy mixing with sound engineer, his voice is golden spot on and he sings with his soul, spirit, and heart
I love his voice because he simply sings the songs. No screaming, just singing. It’s so refreshing to hear pure singing.
❤
Iam obviously loves his fans as much as his fans love him! 😊
Watching from California, love you IAM, its so wonderful to see you in your element, you are such a natural. God given gift.
