I'm pushing 50 yrs old and listen to all genres of music... I've never been a fan of folks covering original artists songs but this young man has something special deep inside that grabs my heart and warms it like a double shot of corn liquor..... Right on is all I can say, that and I'd like to thank his parents for giving the world this treasure of a person ❤

I feel the same . I am older and Queen is my ultimate favorite. Sacred. Now this young man comes along with songs that sound like gentle waves lapping on the side of a dock and I am enameled by the sound of them. Yes he is a big man. He is Tongan and proud of it. And inside that young Tongan man beats a heart as big that young man singing next to him. They don’t make men like that anymore. Cindy

As soon as I heard his very first audition I knew he had already won the show. That's an angel of music right there!!

Iam Tongi brought this metal head to tears. That audition was some of the most moving music I have ever heard in my life. This man has a gift, and he deserves every single molecule of success.

the James Blunt duet hits just as hard as the first time, love that James helped him along the way to let him recover. Both just put soo much emotion into their singing and I am here for it

His voice does what no other singer can nor will- bring. He is singing with a pure gentle loving caring yet hurtful heart. Bless this young man- always. ❤

I'm caught in the magical net of Iam's voice! It's not just a pleasant vocal - it reaches down into your soul and elicits a complete emotional response, as the spirit makes connection with our spirit. There's another voice that does that - touches your spirit every time and you'll find tears inexplicably streaming down your face - or at least , your spirit captured and touched -- that's the voice of Angelina Jordan - from when she was 7, until now (hundreds of songs on YOuTube). She and Iam, both sweet souls as well as singers, have instruments made by God, to connect us with heaven, and bless our time on this complicated earth! PLEASE OH PLEASE keep recording, Iam!
