00:10:05Hi, Mr. Luke.
00:10:05One of my favorite moments I've ever had on this show.
00:10:08That was the greatest performance I have ever seen on this dance.

00:10:25I'll never be more lost than I am right now.
00:10:30I wasn't holding you up, so there's nothing I can do to let you down.

00:11:00I will be content in every circumstance.
00:11:08Chiro, you are enough.
00:11:12You are enough.
00:11:16If he dresses the lilies with beauty and splendor,
00:11:22How much more would he clothe you?
00:11:25How much more would he clothe you?
00:11:29And if he watches over every sparrow,
00:11:35How much more would he love you?

00:11:41And we change your life.

00:12:03Chiro, you are enough.
00:12:27So, here's the situation.
00:12:30You have that star look.
00:12:34That star sound.
00:12:36And more importantly, that star strut.
00:12:40You are walking that walk, singing that song.
00:12:45I just love your stage presence.
00:12:48And your presentation was so wonderful.
00:12:50Love you.
00:12:52Love you.

00:13:13And you're just lovely.
00:13:15Oh, my gosh.
00:13:19I mean, you've kind of touched me in a lot of ways since your audition.
00:13:24And just watching your growth from there to now.
00:13:27And watching you come out here and really command the room and the stage.
00:13:31And, I mean, you're spinning around.
00:13:32And you're just making this your moment.
00:13:35And I love that.
00:13:37Way 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 Luke said.
00:13:44Your boy Drew was having a good time watching that performance.
00:13:46We saw him on TV.
00:13:47And I noticed in rehearsal that you were getting emotional singing that song.
00:13:51What were you feeling at the beginning of the day?
00:13:54Just feeling, you know, I'm just grateful.
00:13:56Grateful to be here.
00:13:57And grateful to God just to be on this platform and to share my group with the world.
00:14:02If you love Keela, you can vote for her right now on social media or via text.

00:14:30Next on a Rascal Flatts Grammy-winning song, it's Jesse Finlay.
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.
00:14:45AmericanIdol has been one of the best journeys of my life.
00:14:48I've gotten so much more confident in myself.
00:15:18I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you.
00:15:27And every long lost dream led me to where you are.
00:15:35Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars pointed me on my way.
00:15:46Into your loving arms, this 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.
00:16:11Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:16:14So growing home into my brother's arms.
00:16:25This much I know is true.
00:16:29God bless the broken road
00:16:33God bless the broken road
00:16:38God bless the broken road
00:16:41That led me straight to you
00:17:07That was great, Jesse.
00:17:09They made us wait for you.
00:17:11I was like holding my breath for lots of people.
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.
00:17:24But when people say you made it your own,
00:17:26I mean, you really did make that your own.
00:17:28I 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, Carrie.
00:17:35Thank you, guys.
00:17:39Yeah, listen.
00:17:39I 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 totally echo what Carrie just said.
00:17:54Just dig, dig, dig, and 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.
00:18:15Just remember, I like Luke now,
00:18:17remember it's down to 14.
00:18:18Give it to us.
00:18:19Yes.
00:18:20All right.
00:18:22Good job, buddy.
00:18:23Nice to see you this evening.
00:18:25She did.
00:18:26She sang that a couple times, I think,
00:18:27in her season, Carrie 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
00:18:34was very 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 the line,
00:18:41God bless the broken road that 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,
00:18:50whether that's friends or family,
00:18:51and I just love that message that the song brings.
00:18:55Yeah.
00:18:58May that lead you to the vote.

00:28:33From a burning tree
00:28:35But I know there's gonna be some
00:28:42Don't give up now
00:28:44You've come too far
00:28:46But there's gonna be a

00:28:50Do you believe it now?
00:28:53Come on, I said there's gonna be some
00:28:56Fire
00:29:00Day
00:29:07Oh, boy, yeah
00:29:16Good job
00:29:28Now, let me tell you what you've just done
00:29:31You see, automatically
00:29:32I never thought I would have to share all night long
00:29:36Now people stop me on the street and go
00:29:38I saw your man with all night long
00:29:40You see, now you're Mr. All Night Long
00:29:43Well, what I love is you have the ability
00:29:45To tell a story
00:29:47And then move the crowd
00:29:48And what you did there was a great, great performance
00:29:53Thank you, sir
00:29:54Thank you
00:29:56I love that
00:29:58I feel like you're so serious
00:30:00Like all the time
00:30:01And then kind of as soon as the music gets going
00:30:04Then you're like, okay, here's fun, Daniel
00:30:05And then the music stops again
00:30:07And you're like, very serious again
00:30:09But I do feel like
00:30:10I feel like we're watching you
00:30:12Kind of just get into
00:30:13A more comfortable, fun space
00:30:16Like I love that you picked
00:30:17Kind of a more up-tempo, groovy song
00:30:19Because 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
00:30:25I think that's going to differentiate you tonight
00:30:26A little bit
00:30:27Very good
00:30:27Thank you
00:30:28Thank you
00:30:31Yeah
00:30:33Have fun with all this
00:30:35I mean, grow, grow, grow
00:30:37And expand and try new things
00:30:38And that's what you did with All Night Long
00:30:40Because 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
00:30:49On the way back
00:30:50So, you got me in the spirit
00:30:52So, but, uh, just keep growing
00:30:54Keep growing
00:30:55Thank you, thank you
00:30:58It was actually a
00:30:59Like a high-five with a knee-up
00:31:02Kind of thing you did right there
00:31:03Yeah, it was a nice move
00:31:04Flexibility at its best
00:31:05So, 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
00:31:10And so I have to be serious
00:31:11Oh, that'll do it
00:31:12But what's surreal you?
00:31:13Come on, cut up a little bit
00:31:14To be honest, I really don't have any sense
00:31:17For real
00:31:18So, I can get really
00:31:19I can have a lot of fun
00:31:20So, yes, I'm going to open up a lot more
00:31:22There you go
00:31:23Given the opportunity

00:53:57And that gave me all of those vibes
00:53:59Thank you so much
00:54:01Just you and your guitar
00:54:02Great song choice
00:54:03Loved it
00:54:04Thank you
00:54:05What I'm loving most about
00:54:07It'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
00:54:32That's memorable to the listeners out there
00:54:35Yes sir
00:54:36Thank you Lionel
00:54:37Thank you
00:54:38Yeah I'll second Lionel on this one
00:54:41I feel like you are on your way to really establishing
00:54:44Like 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 singing 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
00:54:57And putting yourself in them
00:54:59You're not trying to sound like the other artists
00:55:00Which is just really refreshing

00:57:54Oh, nothing but the blood of Jesus.
00:58:13Kendall, I have to tell you that the most enjoyable part is watching you just almost try not to implode.
00:58:23You are so contained. I said, for God's sakes, let it out. Let it go.
00:58:28You were holding yourself and holding yourself, and I said, let it go.
00:58:32My goodness. It is a testament to what you're doing.
00:58:38I want you to understand now, the competition is, I can't say it enough to everyone.
00:58:42I'm just saying, if you get it through, bring me more of that.
00:58:47Okay? Bring me more of that.
00:58:50You are such an artist, and I do not, for the life of me, know how you are not, like,
00:58:58super-duper famous already.
00:59:02Actually, I do know, because that's how the Lord works, and you're here for this time, right now.
00:59:08Wow. That was incredible. You are such an artist. You are so professional, and, like, I don't know.
00:59:17I'm just in awe watching you. It's amazing.
00:59:23I mean, I always had you, like, as someone that's kind of timid, and we see you.
00:59:29You're not timid after that performance.
00:59:31I was really happy to see the song flow through your body and your soul and your voice,
00:59:38and you just let it all happen and just keep doing that.
00:59:42And I think you're doing that just because, yeah, you've got these artist qualities that are just pouring out of
00:59:49you,
00:59:49and we just saw that happen.
00:59:50Wow. Thank you.
00:59:53Kimmel, everyone.
00:59:54So I've noticed that you like to sing in your bare feet.
01:00:00We've got the dogs out today.
01:00:02Yeah, your dogs are...
01:00:02I mean, we're not going to show the world. They're hidden under the dress.
01:00:06All right. Well, use mine as an example, then.
01:00:08I didn't even see that.
01:00:10Can you cover Ron's with the dress also?
01:00:13There you go. That's it.
01:00:14What are you supposed to feel? Why do you like doing this?
01:00:17It's grounding.
01:00:18It's grounding.
01:00:19Yeah, I like to... I'm taking over the territory.
01:00:22Yeah, all right.
01:00:22You know what I mean?
01:00:23All right, let's go.
01:00:25I feel like I've lost two inches.
01:00:27I feel like the size of a Keebler elf right now.

01:00:58Yeah, okay.
01:00:59More inspired songs on the way, like I can only imagine, from Jordan McCullough.

01:01:29Next Monday, it's the return of our Judges Song Contest right here.
01:01:33But, with a 90s twist, and calling all millennials, we've got a TGIF reunion with some of your favorite stars,
01:01:41live on this stage.
01:01:42I know, I'm excited.
01:01:44So don't miss it.
01:01:46Now, with the number one from Christian rock band Mercy Me, it's Jordan McCullough.
01:01:51Yeah.
01:01:52I'm a performer in church, and I didn't know that any of this was a possibility outside of the choir
01:01:57stand.
01:01:58Let the universe and say amen.
01:02:01You're a powerhouse singer.
01:02:03You keep surprising me.
01:02:05I've tried many things, but I feel like I finally have found what I'm looking for.
01:02:12I can only imagine what it'd be like when I walk by your side.
01:02:24I can only imagine when that day comes, and I find myself standing in the sun.
01:02:45I can only imagine when all I will do is forever, forever worship you.
01:02:59Surrounded by your glory, what will my heart feel?
01:03:05Will I dance for you, Jesus, or in awe of you be still?
01:03:11Will I stand in your presence to my knees?
01:03:17Will I fall?
01:03:18Will I sing hallelujah?
01:03:22Will I be able to speak at all?
01:03:26Will I be able to speak at all?
01:03:27What will I be here?
01:03:30Will I dance for you, Jesus, or in awe of you be still?
01:03:37Will I sing in your presence, or in awe of you be still?
01:03:46Will I sing hallelujah?
01:03:48Will I be able to speak at all?
01:03:51I can only imagine.
01:03:55I can only imagine.
01:03:58I can only imagine.
01:04:00I can only imagine.
01:04:20Praise God.
01:04:22Praise God.
01:04:23Well.
01:04:24Gordon.
01:04:25Well.
01:04:29That's all I have to say.
01:04:33God bless you.
01:04:37Every time we see you, you have the ability to bring it up another notch every time.
01:04:43And I'm like, when's this guy going to run out of notches and you don't?
01:04:50And it's just a craft.
01:04:51It's an art that you have.
01:04:53And that was another notch up the ladder.
01:04:56Thank you so much.
01:05:00I'll make it very short.
01:05:02Will the congregation please say amen.
01:05:06Amen.
01:05:08Amen.
01:05:12This is your lane.
01:05:13This is what you do.
01:05:15That's it.
01:05:15As a worship director.
01:05:17Every single Sunday, right?
01:05:18Right.
01:05:18This feels like church to me.
01:05:20This is like, yeah.
01:05:21I mean, the only thing different is like, maybe Ronnie here on his steady camera.
01:05:26Other than that, it's like being at Zeal Church, isn't it?
01:05:28It's cool.
01:05:28Yeah, I like that.
01:05:29Yeah, well.
01:05:30Oh, look at that.
01:05:30Keep looking.

01:12:01Where mercy rains
01:12:04And never dies
01:12:11There's a place
01:12:14Where streams of grace
01:12:17Flow deep in white
01:12:24Where all the love
01:12:28I've ever found
01:12:31Comes like a flood
01:12:34Comes flowing down
01:12:38At the cross, at the cross

01:12:45I'm in all of you

01:22:08Consider all
01:22:11The worlds Thy hands have made
01:22:17I see the stars

01:25:49We lost a couple of wars.
01:26:18We lost a couple of wars.
01:26:34We lost a couple of wars.
01:27:04Definitely, there's pressure throughout, but it's just a different kind of pressure.
01:27:08You are alive.
01:27:09But then it also gives people the chance to rise to the occasion and show us what they
01:27:14got.
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 got to trust your gut as a voter at home and just pick the people that pick the artists
01:27:28that are on stage.
01:27:29It just make you smile, make you laugh, make you cry.
01:27:32And I don't know how America is going to do it.
01:27:36Well, we have had five ways to vote tonight.
01:27:39Tens of millions of votes coming in at a rate we have never seen before.
01:27:44Truly unprecedented.
01:27:45And to ensure complete accuracy with the numbers, I was literally just told we are not going
01:27:53to announce eliminations tonight.
01:27:55What?
01:27:57This is the first time it's ever happened.
01:27:59Believe me, I've been here every night.
01:28:02I want to make sure we get every vote counted and every vote right.
01:28:06We'll carry forward those votes, get everything verified.
01:28:08So at the top of next week's show, your results will be revealed live on this stage.
01:28:24There you have it, America.
01:28:27Tens of millions of votes, your top 12 will sing for your votes live all over again during
01:28:32our judges song contest with a 90s twist.
01:28:36That's next Monday, 8, 7 central live right here.
01:28:40Good night, America.
01:28:46Good night.
