Wicked! Love his style of music I would buy his albums today! Can't wait till he gets a record deal that allows him to continue writing his amazing original Music and bringing that passionate feeling, that is obviously so emotionally deep that it reflects in his lyrics. Ellen you are an amazing woman who has a fantastic eye for bringing true talent and deserving individuals to the public, when others may overlook the obvious.
He is extremely talented and what Ellen did was extremely touching!
This song is great. I too love the way it makes me feel and his delivery was perfect.
Ellen is the best...I love her show and loved her so much for doing this. She's the best in every way!
I LOVE HIM!! I can't stop watching this vedio. I love his music and how it makes me feel. I couldn't believe when he got kicked off, cause I thought he was for sure going to win. I have to be his biggest fan!!! HE HAS TO MAKE A RECORD!!
Thanks Ellen
This guy is so incredibly talented!!! I am soooo happy that you had him on your show because I was dying to hear more of his work. I'd buy his album in a heartbeat. Hey Ellen, you do everything else, why not start a label and make him your 1st artist?! You'd make a fortune (I know you already have, but you'd make another one!!!)!
Ellen,
Thank you for doing what American Idol should have done, you gave Josiah the chance that he deserved. I was so disappointed when he did not get through on American Idol, but America is speaking out and saying that we want to see more of Josiah. He is a talented young man and America saw it even if the judges on Idol did not. I look forward to the day when I turn my radio on and hear him singing back at me.
Ellen this young man has my son who is 18 and his gril friend who is 17 and his parents who are in their lower 40s loving his music!!!!!!! Josiah you have a God given talent. You are going to rise to the top!!
THANK YOU!!!! for letting us enjoy Josiah again. I am addicted to his my space. I live in Germany so my only access to your show and to Josiah is the internet.Thank you again!
I love this kid. I bought his music off of his myspace. He will get a record deal. He has natural talent and I think his music appeals to all ages.. Thanks Ellen for having him on!
Ellen,
You are awesome! I thought that Josiah was amazing and I never understood why Idol "didn't get him", maybe he is just too good! I'm older (26) then him and I thought that he was unique and talented. Maybe it's because he's not that cookie-cutter image that is "American Idol". I think he is an American Idol already, he is reaching for the American Dream, he lives in his car and just tries to make great music and tries to inspire others through that! How more American can you get! You should have him on once a month till he gets a record deal! That would be great!
A big Ellen (and Josiah) fan!
Patience
Ellen,
That was great of you to give this kid a chance. I watch it over and over on my DRV. The gifts were great too. You have an extremely large heart.
I am on Josiah's myspace page right now listening to his music. He is a tortured soul. An absolutely great quality for a musician. This boy will go far. Good for him. He wasn't right for American Idol. A star of his caliber just needed a few appearances to get his career going.
Best of Luck to you Ellen with all that you do!
I don't know what it is that keeps me crying every time I see him. I hate being another fan, though... just someone else that adores him. I'm glad he's recognized. I just wish that somehow, he could know the way I felt, passionate. And I think that the way he's passionate gets me going.
Josiah, if you are reading this (no chance, i know) I just need you to hear that.

I think now that Simon and all misread Josiah by saying he didn't need the band. I think they took it as attitude. I noticed that he is very humble and they forgot that. Sometimes people that are homeless (and that included myself at one time,) are not touchy feely, but I see that Josiah's light has not gone out. He still feels from within. I think he got a raw deal because others have botched their audition and they told them that "based on what we have seen here during Hollywood Week, and not that audition, we are putting you through." Why couldn't they do that for him? I want to thank you for giving him a chance and resurrecting his career. I think you are wonderful Ellen. Thank God, or some higher power for you, or daytime tv would be a dud. I love you and your show. May the tv Gods continue to bless you with great ratings!!!!!!!!!!!!
dudeee,, hes soo cute! and he has an amazinggg voice & beeeastt at like every instrumenntt.. yeah i love him!! [:
yes, i love josiah so much....he has 17 songs on his myspace page and i bought them all and love them all....he'll make a name for himself...being known as the american idol is beyond him...i'm not hating on the show though..it's given a lot of opportunities to great talent..like josiah..exposing him to the world! thx ellen and thx ai! :)
