    This was exceptional. One of the most moving I’ve ever seen on Idol. Most people sing the beautiful words, but Jack has been the first to mean it. It was an admission, an apology, a fight for the relationship, and a promise. Everything was there, and it REALLY just felt incredible, right through the TV. One of the truly great Idol performances.

      I thought I was the only one that welled up with tears. Both this song and believe by Cher just hit different. Both made me shed a tear because he’s realizing the artist he’s meant to be in realtime and it just feels so special watching him perform. A lot of good talent this year but no other artist has moved me to tears with their voice alone.

  • @kevenadrien
    @kevenadrien Před měsícem +83

    0:56 - Up until this point, I was scared to see how he would navigate his way without his guitar, his safety blanket. But then he opened up his voice, his hand gestures became one with the words he was singing, and out came his greatest performance yet. Every star has that one standout moment, and this was his. He absolutely killed it. He made me feel the song in a completely different way. God, I can’t get enough of it. Stellar. Flawless. But most importantly, it just oozed out of him. The way he sings really is an art.

    Not to mention it’s a Cinderella story that he almost didn’t make it through auditions. No other contestant has the full package like Jack! He’s got the it factor.

His facial expressions will be as legendary as Elvis Presley's famous lip curl. Standing by all the contestants, judges, guests, and families. (And hoping this season changes Katy Perry's mind to stay longer). Fantastic job, truly memorable listen for people.
