00:00:41And heaven might find
00:00:46A place in their hearts
00:00:53Because Jesus is at home
00:01:00Yes, He is now
00:01:02He won't let you down
00:01:12He's mine, he's mine
00:01:15He's mine, he's mine
00:01:15Oh, man, forever

00:10:05Hi, Mr. Luke.
00:10:06One of my favorite moments I've ever had on this show.
00:10:08That was the greatest performance I have ever seen on this stage.
00:10:13She's the best mom in the world.
00:10:25I'll never be more loved than I am right now.
00:10:30I wasn't holding you up, so there's nothing I can do to let you down.
00:10:37It doesn't take a trophy to make you proud.
00:10:44And I'll never be more loved than I am right now.
00:10:48Hey, you are enough.
00:10:54Hey, everybody say, you are enough.
00:11:01I will be content in every circumstance.
00:11:08Jaira, you are enough.
00:11:22How much more would he love you?
00:11:25How much more would he love you?
00:11:29And if he watches over every sparrow, how much more would he love you?
00:11:38How much more would he love you?
00:11:41And we say, Jaira.
00:11:45You are enough for me.
00:11:47Whether that's human that you need.
00:11:50Freedom that you need.
00:11:52Whoa.
00:11:53You are enough.
00:11:54And I will be content in every circumstance.
00:12:00Every circumstance.
00:12:01And we say, Jaira.
00:12:05You are enough.
00:12:26So here's the situation.
00:12:30You have that star look, that star sound.
00:12:36And more importantly, that star strut.
00:12:40You were walking that walk, singing that song.
00:12:45I just love your stage presence and your presentation was so wonderful.
00:12:50Loved it. Loved it.
00:12:53What a way to kick off the show.
00:12:56I mean, you kind of put us you put us right there in in the mind frame of, you know,
00:13:03being grateful and just the beautiful things that come out of your mouth.
00:13:08Just amazing.
00:13:08And for the record, I feel like you just look so gorgeous and sophisticated and just lovely.
00:13:15Oh, my God.
00:13:19I mean, you've kind of touched me in a lot of ways since your audition and just watching your growth
00:13:26from there to now and watching you come out here and really command the room and the stage.
00:13:30And, I mean, you're spinning around and you're just you're just making this your moment.
00:13:35And I love that way to kick off the night.
00:13:38Great job.
00:13:41Well, you did it.
00:13:42You kicked off the night.
00:13:43Just like me said, your boy, Drew, was having a good time watching that performance.
00:13:46We saw him on TV.
00:13:48And I noticed in rehearsal that you were getting emotional singing that song.
00:13:51What were you feeling at the beginning of the day?
00:13:54I'm just feeling, you know, I'm just grateful.
00:13:56Grateful to be here and grateful to God just to be on this platform and to share my group with
00:14:00the world.

00:14:30Next on a Rascal Flatts Grammy-winning song, it's Jesse Finley.
00:14:36You haven't noticed I have a stutter.
00:14:39Singing has always felt freeing for me because when I sing, I don't stutter.
00:14:42I love this show because we get to meet kids like you.
00:14:45American Idol has been one of the best journeys of my life.
00:14:49I've got so much more confident in myself.
00:14:54I set out on a narrow way many years ago.
00:15:02Hoping I would find true love along the broken road.
00:15:09But I got lost a time or two
00:15:14I wiped my brow and kept pushing through
00:15:18I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
00:15:25And every long lost dream led me to where you are
00:15:35Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
00:15:42Pointed me on my way into your loving arms
00:15:50This much I know is true
00:15:56That God blessed the broken road that led me straight to you
00:16:04Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
00:16:13I'm still rolling home into my brother's arms
00:16:24This much I know is true
00:16:29God blessed the broken road
00:16:33God blessed the broken road
00:16:38God blessed the broken road
00:16:42That led me straight to you
00:16:49Thank you
00:17:07That was great, Jesse
00:17:09They made us wait for you
00:17:10I was like holding my breath for lots of people
00:17:13Me too
00:17:13But I bet you feel better now that that's over
00:17:16I mean, that song is such a singable, beautiful song
00:17:20I know somebody else who sang it a couple decades ago on the show
00:17:23But when people say you made it your own
00:17:26I mean, you really did make that your own
00:17:27I love the arrangement
00:17:28I love what you did with it
00:17:30You made that song suit your voice
00:17:32And you did it really fantastically
00:17:34Thank you so much, Kerry
00:17:35Thank you, guys
00:17:39Yeah, listen, I love everything you're doing
00:17:41Your voice is very controlled and very perfect
00:17:44But then, listen, keep pushing, too
00:17:46And dig more and more
00:17:48Because we're getting into the serious part of the competition
00:17:50I love the
00:17:51I totally echo what Kerry just said
00:17:54Just dig, dig, dig
00:17:56And so glad to see you in this spot
00:17:58Thank you, Luke
00:17:59Great job on that
00:18:01Thank you so much, guys
00:18:03Honestly, honestly, it's ditto, ditto, ditto
00:18:07I mean, there's a purity about your voice
00:18:09And a sincerity about your voice
00:18:11That just comes right through first note
00:18:14Just remember, I like Luke now
00:18:16Remember, it's down to 14
00:18:18Give it to us
00:18:19Yes
00:18:19All right
00:18:22Good job, buddy
00:18:23Nice to see you this evening
00:18:24She did
00:18:26She sang that a couple times, I think, in her season
00:18:28Kerry Underwood
00:18:29Did you watch those performances?
00:18:30Yes, definitely inspired me
00:18:31She did a great job
00:18:32And to be able to sing it on the stage in front of her was
00:18:34It did it head on
00:18:35Very special
00:18:36And it was symbolic, that song, right?
00:18:38Yes
00:18:38Yeah, it's just a beautiful song
00:18:39I love, like, the line
00:18:40God bless the broken road
00:18:42That led me straight to you
00:18:44And I feel like that's a lyric in the song
00:18:46That everybody can feel
00:18:48And God leads us to the right people in life
00:18:49Whether that's friends or family
00:18:51And I just love that message that the song brings
00:18:54Yeah
00:18:58May that lead you to the vote

00:22:43Cause all that I have is a hallelujah
00:22:51Hallelujah
00:22:54And I know it's not much
00:22:57But I'm nothing else but for a king
00:23:02Except for a heart singing
00:23:06Hallelujah
00:23:10Hallelujah
00:23:13Hallelujah
00:23:18Oh, come on, my soul
00:23:21Oh, don't you get

00:24:15Hallelujah
00:24:33That was my favorite performance I've seen you do thus far.
00:24:38Thank you so much, Steve.
00:24:41It just felt like everything came together.
00:24:45Your voice really works in this room and the way you just stand there.
00:24:49You look like you got your whole thing together and you're ready to be a star.
00:24:57All I want you to know is grow that.
00:25:00All right.
00:25:01Grow that.
00:25:02In other words, what I'm saying to you is take this as the big step because you've got major behind
00:25:08you here.
00:25:09Okay.
00:25:09Which means now you take it and take us to the next level of that performance right there.
00:25:19Lucas, more than anything, I felt like you were very genuine in singing it, which was, I don't know, like
00:25:26I felt it.
00:25:27I felt a little Holy Spirit in the room, which was really wonderful.
00:25:32I also felt a little nerves from you, which I know is impossible.
00:25:34This is a big deal.
00:25:35This is like the real deal now.
00:25:37You know, we've got our top 14.
00:25:39So this is serious and you already know that.
00:25:43But just keep doing what you're doing.
00:25:44Yes, ma'am.
00:25:47How are you feeling tonight?
00:25:52Like a weight just going.
00:25:53Yeah, lifted off of you?
00:25:54Yeah, let me tell you.
00:25:55I don't stand.
00:25:56I mean, you're plucked out of your real life.
00:25:57You have to understand that.
00:25:58For example, you just missed your senior prom, right?
00:26:01I did.
00:26:02I did.
00:26:02Oh, what?
00:26:03Yeah.
00:26:04It's terrible, but, you know, it's one of those things, you know.
00:26:07Well, I bet you would have been prom king.
00:26:12There you go.
00:26:24I stopped for a burger on the way in, so I just grabbed that drive-thru.
00:26:30Get those votes in for Lucas right now.
00:26:32You're a good sport.
00:26:33Online, via text, and on social media.

00:26:44Lucas, the prom king, Leon.
00:26:51Now, bringing us some brighter days, it's Daniel Stoller.
00:26:57I'm doing this for my students, to encourage them to never give up.
00:27:00How lucky are the kids to have you?
00:27:03Your voice is insane.
00:27:05You're a truly special person.
00:27:07Your students are going to hail you as the greatest thing that ever showed up in their lives.
00:27:18I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:27:23I swear that love will find you in your pain.
00:27:29I feel it in me like the beatings of life in my veins.
00:27:35I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:27:40Oh, if your screams don't make a sound.
00:27:46Oh, if your walls are crashing down.
00:27:52Oh, if your heart just cries too loud all the time.
00:28:02I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:28:07Come on, clap your hands.
00:28:08Come on.
00:28:09I swear that love will find you in your pain.
00:28:14I feel it in me like the beatings of life in my veins.
00:28:20I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:28:24I said I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:28:29Listen, you're as far as a burning dream.
00:28:36But I know there's going to be some brighter days.
00:28:41Oh, don't give up now.
00:28:44You've come to heart.
00:28:46I know there's going to be a brighter days.
00:28:48Come on, I said there's going to be a brighter days.
00:28:52Do you believe it now?
00:28:53A brighter days.
00:28:55There's going to be some brighter days.
00:29:07Oh, yeah.
00:29:09Oh, yeah.
00:29:16Good job.
00:29:29Now, let me tell you what you've just done.
00:29:31You see, automatically, I never thought I would have to share all night long.
00:29:36Now, people stop me on the street and go, I saw you, man, with all night long.
00:29:40You see, now you're a Mr. All Night Long.
00:29:43Well, what I love is you have the ability to tell a story and then move the crowd.
00:29:49And what you did there was a great, great performance.
00:29:53Thank you, sir.
00:29:56I love that.
00:29:58I feel like you're so serious, like, all the time.
00:30:01And then kind of as soon as the music gets going, then you're like, okay, here's fun, Daniel.
00:30:06And then the music stops again and you're like, very serious again.
00:30:09But I do feel like we're watching you kind of just get into a more comfortable, fun space.
00:30:16Like, I love that you picked kind of a more up-tempo, groovy song because this would be the chance
00:30:21for a lot of people to do, like, big, slow songs.
00:30:23And you kind of went a different direction.
00:30:24I think that's going to differentiate you tonight a little bit.
00:30:27Very good.
00:30:31Yeah.
00:30:33Have fun with all this.
00:30:35I mean, grow, grow, grow and expand and try new things.
00:30:39And that's what you did with All Night Long because we hadn't seen you do that yet.
00:30:42And then, like I said, this got you moving.
00:30:44You were out here with us.
00:30:46You walked by.
00:30:47I think I kissed you on the cheek on the way back.
00:30:50So you got me in the spirit.
00:30:52So just keep growing.
00:30:54Keep growing.
00:30:58It was actually like a high five with a knee up kind of thing you did right there.
00:31:03Yeah, it was a nice move.
00:31:04Flexibility at his best.
00:31:06So are you a serious guy?
00:31:07Are you a fun guy?
00:31:08What kind of guy are you?
00:31:09Well, I'm a school teacher, so I have to be serious.
00:31:11Oh, that'll do it.
00:31:12But what's the real you?
00:31:13Come on, cut up a little bit.
00:31:15To be honest, I really don't have any sense for real.
00:31:19I can get really, I can have a lot of fun.
00:31:21So, yes, I'm going to open up a lot more.
00:31:22There you go.
00:31:23Given the opportunity.
00:31:25Good stuff.

00:31:48A little more laid back.
00:31:49Have you heard your favorite yet?
00:31:52Maybe it will be insurance broker turned Idol finalist, Philman Lee.
00:31:58I'm in insurance sales.
00:32:00You're just so chill and calm, and then you open your mouth to sing.
00:32:05I have a voice, and I want it to be heard.
00:32:07Some people look like they've been trained to sing, and you look like you were born to sing.

00:45:03This is my dream

00:45:17Yeah but that's when I need it the most
00:45:21So I'll keep on singing
00:45:26Till my soul catches up
00:45:29And there's times when my hands go up freely
00:45:35And times at a cost
00:45:38And there's days when a praise comes out easy
00:45:45And days when it takes all the strength I've got
00:46:17So I'll bring my heart called
00:46:19Bring my heart full
00:46:20Heart fell
00:46:22It is well

00:47:07Oh, hallelujah
00:47:21Brayden, you are here because you have an incredible voice.
00:47:26Like, hands down.
00:47:27You showed it off.
00:47:28I felt like as the song progressed,
00:47:31we just felt that building and felt you going for more stuff.
00:47:34And, I mean, you're here because you should be.
00:47:37You deserve to be.
00:47:38It was great.
00:47:42Yeah, just, if you get through, I hope you do.
00:47:45Just don't let the moment feel like it's overwhelming you a little bit.
00:47:49I mean, just remember that song has a lot of big energy behind it.
00:47:53And you sing it great, but you got to get wrapped up in this thing.
00:47:56I just felt like you may have got a little nervous in the moment, but we love your voice.
00:48:00Great job on that.
00:48:01Yeah.
00:48:03All I was going to say to you is don't let it freak you out.
00:48:07Listen, let me tell you something.

00:51:12Thank you, Robert.
00:51:13Getting the second chance reminds me how lucky I am to be here.
00:51:18It's just a star.
00:51:20Straight up a star.
00:51:24Welcome back.
00:51:36When you try your best, but you don't succeed.
00:51:42When you get what you want, but not what you need.
00:51:48When you feel so tired, but you can't see.
00:51:55Stuck in river.
00:52:02Tears come streaming down your face.
00:52:08When you lose something, you can't replace.
00:52:15Oh, when you love someone, but it goes to waste.
00:52:21Could it be worse?
00:52:31Lights will guide you home
00:52:37And ignite your bones
00:52:44And I will try to fix you
00:52:50Tears stream down your face
00:52:57When you lose something, you cannot refresh
00:53:04Tears stream down your face
00:53:17Lights will guide you home
00:53:23Lights will guide you home
00:53:23And ignite your bones
00:53:30And I will try to fix you
00:53:50Yeah, really well done
00:53:52I still feel like you have so much star potential and star quality
00:53:57And that gave me all of those vibes just then
00:54:00Thank you so much
00:54:01Just you and your guitar
00:54:02Great song choice
00:54:03Loved it
00:54:04Thank you, Luke
00:54:05What I'm loving most about
00:54:08It's number one in everybody's category
00:54:11What's happening now is everybody's carving out their own lane
00:54:15And that was your lane clearly
00:54:17Now what I want you to do on that
00:54:19Is build on it
00:54:21You've got your section
00:54:23But this group right here
00:54:25This 14 is a rough group here, babes
00:54:27And so what I want you to understand is
00:54:29Carve out your part that's memorable to the listeners out there
00:54:35Yes, sir
00:54:36Thank you, Lionel
00:54:37Thank you
00:54:37Yeah, I'll second Lionel on this one
00:54:41I feel like you are on your way to really establishing like your own sound
00:54:45You have a really great way of taking somebody else's song
00:54:50And I mean we first heard you sing in your own stuff
00:54:53But now we're kind of hearing you sing some covers
00:54:55But you're really good at taking those songs and putting yourself in them
00:54:59You're not trying to sound like the other artists
00:55:00Which is just really refreshing
00:55:02Thank you so much, Carrie
00:55:06Good to see you, buddy
00:55:07I know you were hanging out with some of the other finalists at the Dodgers game the other night

00:55:15Yes, and they did all right for the Dodgers, didn't they?
00:55:17They always do
00:55:18By the way, they were over there and they were swaying to your song
00:55:22We saw them

01:26:33How in your view
01:26:34Is this class shaping up?
01:26:36All right, so let me tell you something
01:26:38Out of all the classes
01:26:39This is probably the most diverse
01:26:41When I say that
01:26:42I mean from every imaginable
01:26:45Configuration of genre
01:26:46You all have managed to
01:26:48Sparkle us again
01:26:49To the point where we don't know
01:26:51Where you're coming from
01:26:52All Martians are in this class
01:26:54All Martians
01:26:56Amazing class
01:26:57Amazing class
01:26:57And Carrie, you've done this before
01:26:59How does the competition shift
01:27:02Once we go live on the stage?
01:27:04I mean there's definitely
01:27:05There's pressure throughout
01:27:06But it's just a different
01:27:07Kind of pressure
01:27:08You are live
01:27:09But then it also gives people
01:27:11The chance to rise to the occasion
01:27:13And show us what they got
01:27:15And I definitely felt that tonight
01:27:17Luke, how do you choose?
01:27:19I don't know how America chooses
01:27:21You gotta trust your gut
01:27:22As a voter at home
01:27:24And just pick the people
01:27:26That pick the artists
01:27:28That are on stage
01:27:29Just make you smile
01:27:30Make you laugh
01:27:31Make you cry
01:27:32And I don't know
01:27:35How America's gonna do it
01:27:36Well, we have had
01:27:37Five ways to vote tonight
01:27:39Tens of millions of votes
