Iam Tongi's Audition Has The Judges In TEARS After Emotional Song For His Dad | Idols Global

I don't care what society has to say about fathers. This young man is an example of what it looks like when it all goes right with a father and his son. This song destroyed me in a good way. I too love my dad, and I'm so glad I got to experience this pureness...it changed my life.

I’m a grown man and i had no expectations of crying, but that first “it’s my turn to chase the monsters away” hit me so hard.

Rest easy Sir Rodney. Your son did very good !! Thank you for being a great dad !!!

Lionel is such a dude. His replies and delivery were so humble, so relaxed. Liked this one.

All this man needs Is an Audience, he can tell an amazing story through his amazing voice!

I don't think it's possible to watch this and not cry. James Blunt's song captures the relationship between a father and his son. Iam's dad has left a wonderful legacy.

Wow, His Loss , his sorrow, him, his audition, his voice, his singing, the words , made this old war dog Marine have tears run down my face. Not easy to do. God Bless his father RIP and God bless this fine young man and all his beautiful family.

You struck a nerve young man. I lost my father to cancer August 23, 2022. I have never had tears rolling down my face until now. I’m 37 years old man and I’m sobbing over here.

I’m not crying,you’re crying! 60 yr old man here. Pure love

My father passed away a week ago in Mexico. Before he was buried, I adapted the song to a short poem in a Spanish version. I said this in front of everyone. I barely made it, and goes like this: " Hoy, hoy no soy tu hijo Hoy tu no eres mi padre, Hoy somos dos viejos amigos que se dicen adiós, No hay necesidad del perdón, No hay necesidad del olvido, Por que yo conozco tus errores, Y tu los míos, Y mientras duermes, Prometo hacerte orgulloso de mí, No hay nada que temer, Que hoy viviré la vida, tal y como es "

Every grownup man will realize what burden that every dad carry through, and they will realize when they grown up already. That's why that two mans crying

In 43 yrs old ffirefighter/EMT and this kid had my crying like a baby!! Amazing job!!!

He just brought tears to every grown ass man's eyes...Thank you Ian

I just cried like a baby

He truly deserved to win american idol and did. One of the few times they got it right

how can he even perform so well. I'm falling apart just listening 😭

I didn't expect to cry, let alone sob. I also lost my dad a few year ago and these lyrics punched me in the chest. I'm proud of this young man.

This 18 yr old young man just made this 48 yr old man move to tears.

The look on that lads face just proved im gonna miss my best friend when he leaves me, im crying seeing this, a lad who has a dad that taught him everything and knows his impact, ive always said a boy needs his father and this just proves it indefinitely, find me a man who doesnt love another man more than anyone, youll never see a grown man cry harder than when he loses his role model 🤷‍♂️ rarity and importance at its finest 💙💙💯💯moms are adundant today yet dads are rare, I wonder why the world is so lost 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

My dad passed away in Feb 2022 to cancer this song gets me every time i listen to it. 😢rest in peace daddy
