Andrew Garcia sings an acoustic version of Paula Abduls Straight Up with an acoustic guitar. The judges dig it. Hes soulful, confident. Kara calls it genius, and says Paula would have loved it. She compares him to Adam, who she says would take a song and flip it.

is there a video of him singing the full song?
i think i have watched this video over a 100 times… love it!!!!!
@mrb5201
Are you dumb, he was laughing at how insanely good Andrew was not laughing at Andrew. Get out more.
@yoops Yeah that’s why he never said one good thing about andrew the whole season? Why don’t you get out more fag.
@mrb5201
You’re an idiot, you can’t even read a simple laugh, you are socially inept.
@HesDaryl yes he sang the song in the ellen show
too bad i think he topped himself here and they keep comparing his performances to this one and he struggled alot bcuz of it…just my opinion
@Parson2 no, thats so wrong.
the worst thing about this video, is that they stopped it too early.
wow!!!excelent
damn ! he is sooo good ! i think he has so much talent !!! ( i totally love his glasses) !!
he has so much style !! go andrew !
yeah i def got the chills
Dude, Andrew was my favorite by far, I wish he wouldn’t have gotten so nervous during american idol. Can’t waittill he makes an album I will buy it for sure. I feel bad for the girl at the end of the video, she was the worst person I have ever heard, and she had to follow, the best idol performance ever, this video has been watched 3 million times, and her awful performance has to be watched everytime. She will never live this down..
this song was the song of the series …
yey for andy! ^_^ woohoo! pinoyblood! v^__^v
I LOVEE ANDREWW GARCIA!!!!
hahaha ellen is so funny… and andrew ur so fucking talented lol.. u have a great..no.. not great.. u have an AMAZING voice
the problem for andrew on idol was that he was used to more acoustic covers and that was his style but on idol since they had different styles every week it was hard for him to work it like he did on straight up, forever was his actual shining moment on the big idol stage because he was able to change the song to his style which i love, andrew is amazing i still wish he wouldve stayed, he is my American idol (:
Why did Simon stop it?? It’s amazing
nao devia ter sido eliminado
Andrew Garcia is the best!!! i don’t care about anyone else Andrew is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Is he gonna have a studio recording of this?
Wish Paula was there, would be awesome to watch.
all hail prince andrew
