Elliott's voice has 'Umph.'It has 'grit.'It has 'Soul.'A song like this is BIG. It's Gospel-y and full of passion. NONE of the contestants could've pulled this song off. I love Chris, Paris, and Katharine, but they would've been out of their element.This is the kind of music Elliott was made for.It's big and expressive and so... AMAZING.I LOVE QUEEN.Doesn't everybody?And this is one trip of a song.It builds like wave and then just shakes the crap outta me, and slapping me around like a used hooker.And when it's over, I miss it.It's that good.Love the original. Love this one. Love Elliott.

Jul 20, 2008 - (Reply) he was in the bottom 3 after this. i thought it was good but it wasn't the best vocal that night like paula said you moron she just said it was the best vocal of the night GO ELLIOT

Alex4uall Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Don't like that he begins with "I work hard", should be "Each morning I get up..."Otherwise it was good. :)

Alex4uall Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - That's a shame, he did a really good job. This song is so damn hard to sing, this is one of the best covers I've heard of it actually. Even though Freddie is the only one who can sing it best.

MusicalFreak16 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Why does Simon look like it's torture to give him a good remark?? I don't get it. Oh yes I do it's because he wanted Chris to win. If I was a Yamin fan I would be furious over Simon's comments, saying that Chris was the most talented that year. When Elliott clearly had the best male voice, out of like EVERY season.

gandy74 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - An extremely UNDERRATED performance of "Somebody to love". Sacrilege I know....but I prefer it to the original.

margaby2001 Says:

devinharper2222 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Incredible.

singers333 Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - Amazing vocal in this performance. I think what hurt Elliott of getting into the top two was his stage presence. But he definitely should have been in the top two.

idoletc Says:

Jul 20, 2008 - gandy74...are you the same "gandy" that won a karaoke contest on the internet? Just curious.

gandy74 Says:

idoletc Says:
