00:01:46Oh, that's good.
00:01:48That's good.
00:01:48Who are you?
00:01:49I am Micaiah Mustafil.
00:01:51I am 24 years old, and I am from Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
00:01:54Pine Bluff, Arkansas.
00:01:55All right.
00:01:55Oh, my God.
00:01:56Your voice is already filling up the room.
00:01:59They can hear you all the way from Pine Bluff.
00:02:01I know.
00:02:02That's what I want.
00:02:03And what do you do in Pine Bluff?
00:02:04So I am an assistant branch manager for a bank there in my hometown.
00:02:08I got you.
00:02:08And I also do singing on the side.
00:02:10I just love you.
00:02:13Morning, morning, morning, morning.
00:02:15Good morning.
00:02:17Good morning.
00:02:18Thanks for calling us in this bank.
00:02:19Micaiah speaking.
00:02:20Do you have the blue bag that if somebody robs the bank, you can put the blue paint in
00:02:24the bag, and it blows up on them?
00:02:26No.
00:02:26I wish I did.
00:02:28All I have is, like, bait money.
00:02:30They have the tracker, and I give that to them.
00:02:32That way I can track them.
00:02:33The bait money?
00:02:34Yes, the bait money.
00:02:37I have a lot of fun at work.
00:02:39Fun is what makes the day go by.
00:02:41If we can't have fun, then I don't want to work with you.
00:02:44Hey, I wonder if my wife has bait money on me.
00:02:47Uh-oh.
00:02:48Anyway.
00:02:49Now he's worried.
00:02:50What do you do all your singing?
00:02:51So I sing around my town, and I also grew up singing in church, so I sing in church every
00:02:55Sunday with my family.
00:02:57So this whole family is a singing family, yeah?
00:03:00We have this saying, there's a difference in singing and singing, and we believe she can
00:03:05sing.
00:03:05She can sing?
00:03:06We can sing.
00:03:07Oh, you can't sing?
00:03:08No, we can't sing.
00:03:09What about you?
00:03:10I sing, and I play the drums.
00:03:12Oh, so you got it all going on there.
00:03:14Okay.
00:03:14Something like that.
00:03:15He can sing.
00:03:16He can sing?
00:03:17He can sing.
00:03:17I never met a man quite like you, doing all you can, making my dreams come true.
00:03:33Oh, you got the charm, you simply disarm me every time.
00:03:44As long as you drive, I'm along for the ride your way.
00:04:15Oh, he's gone.
00:04:18Oh, you, you're lonely, out for me.
00:04:28I know you're the best.
00:04:31You're past every test.
00:04:33It's almost too good to be true.
00:04:37You're the perfect man for me.
00:04:41You're the perfect man for me.
00:04:44I love you and you.
00:04:49I love you
00:04:56Thank you
00:04:57It's good
00:04:59Thank you

00:07:57I'm going to take it down
00:07:59Time Bluff, Arkansas
00:08:01Yeah
00:08:07I worked very hard to be here today
00:08:10I feel very proud
00:08:17Think about their church on Sundays
00:08:20That church must be rocking, boy
00:08:25Every day of your life
00:08:35Our own Macaulay Mustafil has been granted a golden ticket to go to Hollywood
00:08:44We all know that she's going to represent us
00:08:48We all love her
00:08:49Let's show her how much we love her and how much we support
00:08:53We're going to Hollywood
00:09:00You might be my favorite person that's walked through those doors
00:09:04I think you're a racehorse, man
00:09:08I love what you do
00:09:09You're crazy talented, crazy unbelievable
00:09:11If we say no to him, what are we doing here?
00:09:14Yeah, yeah
00:09:14Boom
00:09:15I have an announcement
00:09:17Yay
00:09:20It was just
00:09:22You can hallowed the bad boys any day of the week
00:09:25I don't think we've seen a star, star, star like you yet
00:09:34I wonder do we have any valedictorians in this class
00:09:36Where did you rank in your class, Carrie?
00:09:39I was salutatorian
00:09:41But the only reason I wasn't valedictorian is because two of the classes I needed were at the same time
00:09:48So you could have been it
00:09:50Yeah, and I remember talking to the counselor like, this isn't fair
00:09:53What were you?
00:09:55I was not in the running
00:09:58You didn't qualify
00:09:59I was known back then as Lionel Who?
00:10:03Then you know I was in the class
00:10:06Oh, God
00:10:07How are you feeling?
00:10:09Good, I'm excited, I'm nervous, happy to be here
00:10:11Finally here
00:10:12Oh, it says idol
00:10:14Today's the day
00:10:16Feels incredible to have my family here
00:10:18Because they definitely shaped me into the young woman I am today
00:10:22And I don't know who I'd be without them
00:10:24Love you so much
00:10:25I've just been trying to think all the positive thoughts, manifest all the things
00:10:30But the fact it's all today, I think it's kind of stressed me out a little
00:10:33Oh my gosh, I don't know why I'm so nervous
00:10:35I'm sorry
00:10:37Come on in
00:10:38Hello
00:10:39How are you?
00:10:40Good, thanks, how are you guys doing?
00:10:42Oh, the sunshine yellow, we're doing fine
00:10:45Tell us who you are, where are you from?
00:10:46My name is Ruby Ray, I'm 16 years old and I'm from Pacific Palisades, California
00:10:50What are you going to sing for us?
00:10:51I'm singing Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo
00:10:53Very good, let's hear it
00:11:03Hate to give the satisfaction asking how you're doing now
00:11:07How's the castle built off people you pretend to care about
00:11:10Just what you wanted
00:11:12Look at you, cool guy, you got it
00:11:16I see the parties and the diamonds
00:11:19Sometimes when I close my eyes
00:11:20Six months of torture you sold
00:11:22Some forbidden paradise
00:11:24I loved you truly
00:11:26Gotta laugh at this stupidity
00:11:28I made some real big mistakes
00:11:32You made the worst one look fine
00:11:35I should have known
00:11:37It was strange
00:11:39You only come out at night
00:11:42I used to think I was smart
00:11:45You made me look so naive
00:11:48The way you sold me for parts
00:11:52As you sunk your teeth into me
00:11:55You made me a bloodsucker
00:11:58Dream crusher
00:12:00Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
00:12:06You said it was true love
00:12:08But wouldn't I be hard?
00:12:10You can't love anyone
00:12:11Cause I wouldn't mean you had a heart
00:12:13I tried to help you out
00:12:15Now I know that I can't
00:12:16Cause I think she kind of thinks
00:12:18I'll never understand
00:12:24I made some real big mistakes
00:12:28You made the worst one look fine
00:12:31I should have known
00:12:33It was strange
00:12:34You only come out at night
00:12:37I used to think I was smart
00:12:40You made me look so naive
00:12:43The way you sold me for parts
00:12:47You stuck your teeth into me
00:12:50Oh
00:12:50Oh
00:12:52Wow
00:12:54Plunged sucker
00:12:56Dream crusher
00:12:58Bleeding me dry like a damn vampire
00:13:18I am so happy for us
00:13:22I am so happy for you
00:13:24Wow
00:13:25That was right on the money
00:13:29Thank you so much
00:13:31If there were a thousand things on a list to check
00:13:34I think you checked them all
00:13:35I mean
00:13:36I don't think we've seen a star, star, star like you yet
00:13:40Really, really incredible
00:13:43Your breath control is quite amazing
00:13:47There was one point and you just kept going
00:13:49And I'm like when is she gonna breathe?
00:13:52Thank you
00:13:52I'm just curious to know
00:13:54What drove you to be here?
00:13:56Performing is my favorite thing ever
00:13:58And I'm also here really for my community, the Palisades
00:14:02We need a win after such a hard year for everyone
00:14:06And I'm just, yeah, here singing for my family and my community
00:14:11In January of 2025, there was a wildfire that destroyed a lot of our community
00:14:19So much of our community burnt
00:14:21Like my preschool, the first theater I ever performed in
00:14:26The home that I lived in until I was five
00:14:28My childhood best friend's homes
00:14:38It was a really
00:14:40It's been a really hard time
00:14:41Seeing the town that I grew up in completely gone
00:14:47After the fires, it was really hard to just find joy in the little things
00:14:51But it's taught me a lot
00:14:52It's taught me when everyone comes together
00:14:55It can be so strong
00:14:56Well, sorry for all of that
00:14:58I know the pain that that community is going through
00:15:01And to have such a bright spot like you to come in and represent is fantastic
00:15:05Thank you
00:15:07I want to vote
00:15:09Please, Luke, Luke, calm down
00:15:10I want to vote
00:15:11Calm down, talk about it
00:15:12What do you want to do, Lionel?
00:15:14I want to vote
00:15:15Okay
00:15:16It's a yes, big old yes
00:15:18Big old yes
00:15:19Luke
00:15:20As big as a yes can sound
00:15:22This was a yes
00:15:23Of course it was a yes
00:15:24Are you kidding me?
00:15:26That was fantastic
00:15:27Come on down here
00:15:27You're going to Hollywood week
00:15:29Thank you
00:15:30Go out and celebrate
00:15:38This golden ticket was 100% for my family and my community in the Palisades
00:15:43This has definitely been one of the most challenging years
00:15:46But I've learned that I can keep powering through and the light will keep on shining
00:15:50Hollywood week is upon you
00:15:55That's a definite top tenner
00:15:57That's a different kind of 16
00:16:00I agree
00:16:01Now that's a different kind of 16 year old
00:16:03Wow
00:16:04I will give you nothing but my love for you

00:16:56Who are you?
00:16:57My name is Cameron Palmer and I'm 25 and I'm from Florida but I've lived here for six years
00:17:03So I actually dressed up as you for Halloween after you won Idol
00:17:07I was five years old
00:17:09My mom is awesome
00:17:11She sent a photo to you and I got a little postcard back
00:17:15It's dated December 2006
00:17:17Wow
00:17:18And I thought I'd bring it now so

00:17:29You're already making Carrie happy
00:17:32What just happened?
00:17:39You know I'm a dreamer
00:17:44But my heart's of gold
00:17:46And to run away high
00:17:50So when you come home low
00:17:53I'm on my way
00:17:56I'm on my way
00:17:59Home Sweet Home
00:18:20All righty
00:18:22Cameron, you're very comfortable in playing and singing and emoting, which is really refreshing
00:18:30Thank you
00:18:31You've got a nice voice
00:18:33But I just don't know if it's all the way there yet for Idol
00:18:36I'm trying to place you in a setting where seven songs in is the house going to come down
00:18:43I'm still not quite clear on that element of it
00:18:48Yeah
00:18:50It's going to be a no, but it's a real optimistic no
00:18:52Okay
00:18:53You have a good voice
00:18:55I would love to hear more fire in there
00:18:57It's just crazy
00:18:58I know, I know
00:18:59But if you can find that sass and push your voice
00:19:03I think you deserve a chance to do that
00:19:06Thank you
00:19:07So it's a yes for me
00:19:09I'm going to work my butt off
00:19:14I'm a no
00:19:14Okay
00:19:16Thank you
00:19:16Before I go, can I sing it with you?
00:19:19Let's do it
00:19:19Okay
00:19:21That's so cool that you would ask
00:19:25Okay
00:19:27Can you start or do I have to start?
00:19:29Did y'all plan this?
00:19:30No!
00:19:33All right, I'll go
00:19:34Okay
00:19:47I was hoping that the saying no part would get easier
00:19:56And it did not
00:19:59It's a no for me
00:20:01And it's, I was like 15 years old
00:20:05And I had a chance
00:20:07And it didn't work out
00:20:08And if it had, it would have been the worst thing
00:20:10That had ever happened to me
00:20:11So just keep at it, girlfriend
00:20:15I don't want to BS these kids
00:20:17I don't want to fluff them
00:20:19You know, I want to make sure they understand
00:20:21They're not ready yet
00:20:22I would really like to see you
00:20:24Spend more time working on your vocals
00:20:27Yeah, it's a no for me
00:20:30It's a no for me, bud
00:20:31Thank you for being here
00:20:32Thank y'all
00:20:33Thank you
00:20:33Thank you, man
00:20:35It was a no
00:20:36You always just want to really reassure them
00:20:40That it's not their time yet
00:20:42I'm going to give you an encouraging no
00:20:44I want to push you
00:20:46And I want you to find some fire in there
00:20:48Thank you
00:20:48And for them to go continue their path
00:20:51In the music business
00:21:09There you go
00:21:11It was like one of the best moments of my life
00:21:14Thank you
00:21:15Thank you
00:21:15Lionel, they rehearsed that somewhere
00:21:17We did not

00:21:20I'm on my way
00:21:23I'm on my way
00:21:25I finally sang that piece of pepper out of my throat
00:21:28Oh, God
00:21:28Luke, be careful
00:21:31Tonight, tonight
00:21:32No
00:21:33Yeah

00:21:36You guys are heartless
00:21:38We are not heartless
00:21:39We are heartless
00:21:40I'm 1,000% going to keep singing
00:21:42It's my whole life
00:21:43It's what I believe I was put on this earth to do
00:21:45And I'm going to keep doing it
00:21:48All right
00:21:48I'm on my way
00:21:51I'm on my way
00:21:53Home sweet home
00:22:00My name is Michael Garner
00:22:01I'm from Palestine, Arkansas
00:22:03And I'm a sophomore in high school
00:22:04Hey, y'all
00:22:05What's up?
00:22:05All right
00:22:06Hey
00:22:06Gosh, how old are you?
00:22:08I'm 16 years old
00:22:10That's great
00:22:10Days of money
00:22:12When I found out I was going to be able to audition
00:22:14I started busting out crying
00:22:16Me and my mom and my dad
00:22:17We're going to give you a shot
00:22:18Are you serious?
00:22:20Yes, I am serious
00:22:21I feel like this audition could definitely change my lives
00:22:25And my family's lives
00:22:26But you're a long way
00:22:29He's going to do great
00:22:30We all believe in him
00:22:32We're behind you
00:22:33We love you
00:22:35I've watched Idol with my family for a long time
00:22:40This has always been mine and their dream
00:22:42I always said that I was going to be on there someday
00:22:45And here I am
00:22:46But what do you do in Arkansas
00:22:48Other than music?
00:22:49You know, deer hunt, duck hunt
00:22:51The only thing there really is in Arkansas is football games and back roads, you know
00:22:54A little bit nervous going in there?
00:22:55Yeah
00:22:55I think so
00:22:56It's the biggest stage he's ever been on runs
00:22:58It's a big one
00:22:59Yeah
00:22:59What kind of music are you into?
00:23:01Country
00:23:02All right
00:23:02This man says what he says and he says what he says
00:23:06I like it, man, a few words
00:23:07What are you going to sing?
00:23:08I'm going to sing I'm Still Fine by the Red Clay Straits
00:23:10Perfect
00:23:11All right
00:23:11Let's hear it
00:23:13I'm on display
00:23:18I've lost my way
00:23:21Oh God, I pray
00:23:23Let this pass over
00:23:27I lost the note
00:23:31I rocked the ball
00:23:35I've even choked
00:23:38I lost my compulsion
00:23:41People here living it up
00:23:44I think they're blind
00:23:47I think they're out of their mind
00:23:50Like one of them has had this
00:23:56God's not giving me up
00:23:58No, I'm just fine
00:24:01It's just a matter of time
00:24:04Though I can't feel my sadness
00:24:09I know that it should be there
00:24:12But baby, I'm just too tired to care
00:24:16Cause I'm still fine
00:24:22All right
00:24:23Thank you
00:24:28Where's he going?
00:24:29Boom
00:24:30Boom
00:24:30There you go
00:24:32Boom
00:24:32I wish you were like 20 years old
00:24:36I mean, I believe I'm ready
00:24:37You know, I'm willing to give y'all everything I got
00:24:40Yeah, you are
00:24:41You're really good
00:24:41You are
00:24:42Whatever happens today
00:24:43You're on the right path
00:24:45Yes, ma'am
00:24:45What you do with your voice
00:24:48Is definitely beyond 16
00:24:49Like I feel like you have a control
00:24:51And a composure about yourself
00:24:54I think I'm gonna
00:24:55I'm gonna be wrestling over here
00:24:58I think your opening was just nerves
00:25:02That look has not caught up
00:25:03To that matured voice
00:25:05I have to think about this
00:25:07While Luke is talking to you
00:25:09If we say no to him
00:25:10What are we doing here
00:25:11Yeah, yeah
00:25:12I know what you see
00:25:13In my opinion
00:25:13I mean, I know he's young
00:25:15But we're all saying that he sings great
00:25:21She's just playing guitar great
00:25:23And he's singing pretty daggone good
00:25:26So I look at you
00:25:28And I see my son
00:25:30And I would not throw him
00:25:33In the middle of it
00:25:35Where you are at 16
00:25:38So that's where I'm coming from
00:25:41A no for me
00:25:46What do we do with this young prodigy?
00:25:54It's a yes for me
00:26:06Nice
00:26:07Tears
00:26:07Tickets
00:26:11Congratulations
00:26:12Come over here young man
00:26:13Was that terrifying?
00:26:15I mean
00:26:15Flying in front of him
00:26:17We did it
00:26:18We're going to Hollywood week
00:26:20Let's go
00:26:20He's country Justin Bieber
00:26:22That scares the crap out of me
00:26:23Because I'm like
00:26:24Listen
00:26:24Listen, you're right
00:26:25And all I can think about
00:26:27Is
00:26:29Justin Timberlake
00:26:33You can't take the mama
00:26:35You can't take the mama out of me
00:26:37Since when do you have a heart
00:26:40And you're a mother?
00:26:42Miss Carrie
00:26:43I just want to say
00:26:45I'm going to prove
00:26:46To you that I have what it takes
00:26:54It's been a good day
00:26:57Hello, hello
00:26:58Hey
00:27:00Tell us all about yourself
00:27:02My name is Sheldon Riley
00:27:03I'm 26 years old
00:27:04From Melbourne, Australia
00:27:07Melbourne
00:27:08What you doing here?
00:27:10American Idol, huh?
00:27:11You're crazy
00:27:16I wanted to do music
00:27:17Since I was a really young kid
00:27:19When I was maybe about 15 years old
00:27:21I sung at my school
00:27:24And I remember that first applause
00:27:25I was like
00:27:26Yeah, this is what I want to do
00:27:27I love the way it made me feel
00:27:29I love the way that it made me feel noticed
00:27:32About 10 years ago
00:27:33I auditioned for a big TV show
00:27:35Back in Australia
00:27:37It was my big moment
00:27:39And I sung my song
00:27:42And they said it wasn't quite enough
00:27:45Just you singing
00:27:46It's not enough
00:27:47That experience made me doubt myself
00:27:52It made me feel I had to play a character
00:27:54Just to be seen
00:27:57I kind of created this character
00:27:59That dressed up like crazy
00:28:01The most avant-garde
00:28:02High fashion
00:28:03Crystals and diamonds
00:28:05And it was the thing
00:28:06That made people see me
00:28:09It just kind of took off
00:28:11I had opportunities like crazy
00:28:13Not just Australia
00:28:14But the entire world
00:28:18I've been on every TV show competition
00:28:21Known to men
00:28:21I've done it all
00:28:22And the art was just getting crazier
00:28:25And crazier and crazier
00:28:26It almost felt like an addiction
00:28:28To be the most memorable person in the room
00:28:31But I'd come home
00:28:33I'd take the mask off
00:28:35The makeup
00:28:36The accessories
00:28:37The everything
00:28:37And I would hate the person
00:28:40That I saw in the mirror
00:28:40Hated that version of me
00:28:47So I took two years off
00:28:50And remembered
00:28:52Why that little kid
00:28:53Got up on stage
00:28:54That first time
00:28:54And this is the one show
00:28:56There's no smoke
00:28:57There's no mirrors
00:28:58No nothing
00:28:58And I said to myself
00:28:59If I was going to come back into music
00:29:01It would be here
00:29:02With just the piano
00:29:03And just me
00:29:03And if you don't like it
00:29:05You don't like it
00:29:06I don't ever know
00:29:07If anyone's ever really going to want
00:29:08What I have to give
00:29:09Without everything
00:29:11That I usually put on
00:29:13That's a big part of why I'm here
00:29:15Just to remind myself
00:29:17That my voice is enough
00:29:21Everybody's got their version
00:29:22Of what you just said
00:29:24You know
00:29:24Everybody's got their mask
00:29:26Whether it is something physical
00:29:27That they hide behind
00:29:28Or this certain identity
00:29:31That they've created for themselves
00:29:33And you know
00:29:34Then of course you do worry
00:29:36That if I wasn't that
00:29:37Would anyone still love me?
00:29:40Yeah
00:29:40You're very relatable
00:29:41Thank you
00:29:42What are you going to sing
00:29:43For us today?

00:30:26You couldn't help out your own neighbor
00:30:29You couldn't tell it to his face
00:30:31You were messed up by the blame

00:31:56Yeah
00:31:57Thanks
00:31:58You being the loudest guy in the room
00:31:59You don't always have to be that
00:32:01Being the most dynamic singer in the room
00:32:03You don't have to be that
00:32:04It's okay to just peel a layer off
00:32:07But that was impressive

00:36:32Luke, what do you think?
00:36:34Oh, Casanova
00:36:36I think it's probably a stretch for American Idol but I can appreciate your ministry
00:36:42Yeah, thanks
00:36:44Joy, humor
00:36:45I love what you did
00:36:48Thank you
00:36:48Honestly when I tell you that
00:36:49But unfortunately this is a competition
00:36:52Right
00:36:53I don't want to let you guys vote
00:36:57I'm in charge here
00:36:58I like big butts and I cannot lie
00:37:03I fear you Carrie
00:37:03I know what you're saying
00:37:04I think we need you
00:37:05I think you're a morale booster for all of us
00:37:08I'm thinking of myself
00:37:09And my fellow judges
00:37:10And all the people that work on this show
00:37:12And all the joy you would bring as you go forth
00:37:15So I'm going to give you a yes
00:37:18All right
00:37:20I'm going to give you a no
00:37:24And all right
00:37:26What is it, Lionel?
00:37:31I like big butts and I cannot lie
00:37:34You are the brother's daughter
00:37:35I never thought I would have Carrie Underwood fighting for me
00:37:40But hey, I guess I'm just a cowboy Casanova
00:37:43He's the class clown
00:37:48It's one of her songs
00:37:52We've got to check y'all's ears
00:37:53This slice of Casanova cake is going to Hollywood week
00:37:57I feel that some things just have to be pursued
00:38:04You know, this was, this was
00:38:05That was great
00:38:07I followed you, Carrie
00:38:09What is happening?
00:38:10What is happening?
00:38:12Hi
00:38:13Who do you listen to?
00:38:14Carrie, you've been like my vocal inspiration for as long as I can remember
00:38:18Wow, very cool
00:38:19Like, cowboy Casanova just has a very special place in my heart
00:38:22Can you kind of give us a little taste?
00:38:24Let's hope I remember the lyrics
00:38:26I will help you
00:38:26Okay, I'll help you
00:38:27She knows all the lyrics, so just look at her
00:38:31He's a good time cowboy Casanova leaning up against the record machine
00:38:40Look at her face
00:38:41You've got to get some stink face going on
00:38:42He's a devil in disguise
00:38:44A snake with blue eyes and the only country tonight
00:38:47Oh my gosh, you're so good
00:38:49I'm like fangirling, I can't believe this is happening
00:38:51That was great

00:39:07I'm 22 and I'm from Levine, Arizona
00:39:09And this is Mosaic Whispers, my college acapella group
00:39:12And I thought I'd share one of my songs with y'all
00:39:15With them as my instrument
00:39:16Okay, what are you going to sing for us?
00:39:18We're going to sing Masterpiece by Jasmine Sullivan
00:39:20Wow, let's have it
00:39:22My eyes ain't used to these rays
00:39:27I'm feeling exposed
00:39:29But I can't hide no more
00:39:33I can't hide
00:39:34As the sun shines on all of the glory
00:39:38My claws don't look so bad at all
00:39:41What was I so afraid of?
00:39:46Every part of me is a vision
00:39:49Of a portrait of Mona
00:39:51Of Mona Lisa
00:39:56Every part of me is beautiful
00:39:59And I'll finally see
00:40:02I'm a work of art
00:40:05I'm a masterpiece

00:40:37I feel like you were so sweet and smiley
00:40:40Thank you

00:40:43Staying in character
00:40:45Just a little bit

00:40:48Thank you

00:41:38Pinch me
00:41:41She's going to Hollywood week
00:41:49I couldn't stop looking at her baby knees
00:41:52Her what?
00:41:53Baby knees
00:41:55When you have like a face in your knees
00:41:57Oh really?
00:41:59Do you know baby knees?
00:42:00I've never heard of that
00:42:01I have baby knees
00:42:02Oh really?
00:42:03Right after Kate and William had their baby George
00:42:08Right
00:42:08Yeah George
00:42:09Yeah
00:42:09My knees were in a magazine
00:42:11And it was like Prince George's face is in Carrie Underwood's knees
00:42:16And I was like what the crap is going on with my knees
00:42:19So I have baby faces in my knees
00:42:22And I can make them sing too
00:42:25You can make them sing?
00:42:26It was like
00:42:27I gotta check my knees now
00:42:34That's crazy
00:42:53Ah there we are
00:42:55Hello
00:42:55How you doing?
00:42:56Good how are you?
00:42:57Great
00:42:58What's your name?
00:42:59Hannah Harper
00:42:59Where are you from?
00:43:00Willow Springs, Missouri
00:43:01Where did you get that dress?
00:43:03This was homemade
00:43:05If this doesn't scream yeehaw
00:43:06I don't know what will
00:43:08What kind of music do you perform, listen to?
00:43:11I grew up doing bluegrass
00:43:13My family had a bluegrass gospel band
00:43:14Went church to church
00:43:16And sang at churches
00:43:19I grew up in a super musical family
00:43:21My dad worked at the lead mine for several years
00:43:23One evening he was just feeling like God was calling him to do something different with his life
00:43:27So in 2009 my parents quit their jobs
00:43:30And we bought a bus and we went on the road as a family band
00:43:34The tour bus was 40 foot long
00:43:37It was bright red
00:43:38And we lived on the bus for seven years
00:43:41We just would go coast to coast and play banjos and sing for the Lord
00:43:45It was a very unconventional upbringing
00:43:48But I literally wouldn't trade it for anything in the world
00:43:59We didn't come back into Missouri until 2016
00:44:01We settled back down and then I met my husband
00:44:04We got married and we found out we were pregnant with our first baby
00:44:07Like four months after we got married
00:44:09Every morning
00:44:10Oh, right in the noggin
00:44:12I'm sorry buddy
00:44:13Then one turn to three really fast
00:44:16With three boys it comes a lot of chaos
00:44:18Same old coffee
00:44:19And a lot of fun
00:44:20Same old coffee
00:44:40I'm trying out for the show just because I want the opportunity to give the boys
00:44:43The same life that I had growing up
00:44:44In a bigger way if possible
00:44:46To be able to sustain my family and do music full time
00:44:52I have two boys
00:44:53They make things more interesting
00:44:55Oh for sure
00:44:56Mine's been screaming all day
00:44:57Good, yay
00:44:58That's great
00:44:59Love it
00:45:00What are you going to sing for us today?
00:45:02I'm going to sing an original that I wrote called String Cheese
00:45:04You're like my favorite person
00:45:06You're wearing homemade clothes
00:45:08You're singing songs called String Cheese
00:45:10What's the song about?
00:45:11My youngest is one
00:45:12And shortly after he was born
00:45:14I had postpartum depression
00:45:15And so I was sitting on my couch
00:45:16I said I wasn't going to cry
00:45:20I was sitting on my couch wallowing
00:45:24And you have boys, you know
00:45:26Everybody wants to touch you
00:45:27And I didn't want to be touched
00:45:31And my youngest son
00:45:32I was just having a pity party
00:45:35Praying that the Lord would calm my spirit
00:45:40And my son kept coming up to me
00:45:41He said, Mom, open this
00:45:42Mom, open this
00:45:43Open my cheese
00:45:44I'm like, do you leave me alone with the dadgum cheese?
00:45:46And I finally opened his cheese
00:45:48And when I did
00:45:48I realized that God had put me in that place
00:45:50And that where I was in my house
00:45:52Was the biggest ministry that I could ever have
00:45:55And being a mom
00:45:56So I gathered myself
00:45:59And I got up off the couch
00:46:00And I quit throwing a pity party
00:46:01And I realized that
00:46:02That was exactly what I wanted
00:46:05And I kind of kicked the postpartum depression in the butt
00:46:08And I said, I ain't doing it
00:46:09There you go
00:46:10So I wrote this song called String Cheese
00:46:14Do you need a second?
00:46:15I want to give you like
00:46:16Probably just give me one second
00:46:17Yeah
00:46:18Yeah
00:46:19I can't cry and sing
00:46:21So I don't want to put you in that position
00:46:24That is a tough one
00:46:24Here
00:46:25Thank you so much
00:46:32Ready?
00:46:35I think so
00:46:47I wore my morning coffee up for the third time
00:46:54Missed Rachel on the TV
00:46:56With their favorite nursery rhyme
00:46:59Hot wheels and little people under my feet
00:47:05Baby's crying
00:47:07It's pure chaos
00:47:08But I don't miss a beat
00:47:12Always knew that a nine to five
00:47:15Wouldn't suit me very good
00:47:17But my hours are extended
00:47:20That's just motherhood
00:47:23I never knew this is what
00:47:27My twenties would look like
00:47:30But they saved me before I had the chance
00:47:34To waste my life
00:47:36One day I'll be alone
00:47:39With a hot fresh cup of joe
00:47:42Wishing that someone would just drop me by
00:47:47And I'll sit and reminisce
00:47:51On times that I sure miss
00:47:54I've scattered toys and a baby on my hip
00:47:59I thought finding peace in the quiet
00:48:04It's what I wanted
00:48:05But I'd do anything to go back to being needed
00:48:11To those days I want to cry
00:48:16Run away and hide
00:48:19But I'd worry about their every need
00:48:23When I'm overwhelmed and touched out
00:48:28They come climbing up on the couch
00:48:32Saying mama can you open my string cheese
00:48:36I smile because I know meeting their needs
00:48:42Fills my soul
00:48:43Being there mama is who I'm meant to be
00:48:53That's great
00:48:54Do you have more questions?
00:48:55Oh
00:48:57My turn
00:49:00This pack is going quick
00:49:02Yeah, but
00:49:05Well, that's about the most relatable song
00:49:08I think I've ever heard
00:49:11Hannah
00:49:13Great job
00:49:14Thank you
00:49:14Great job
00:49:15Just with that mountainous bluegrass
00:49:18Sound that you have in there
00:49:20I kept thinking like Casey Musgraves is in there
00:49:24I kept thinking
00:49:25Certainly Alison Krauss
00:49:27Like a little dolly
00:49:28A little dolly in there
00:49:30And gosh, even if we got you to lean in more on it
00:49:33Fill the room a little more
00:49:34You're going to be able to move some people
00:49:36But great song
00:49:37Way to really write the moment you're in
00:49:40I want you to use dolly as the example of two things
00:49:44One, her storytelling ability
00:49:47And two, she has the ability to tell that story
00:49:50And then give us a lift
00:49:52You've got the range
00:49:54I would have loved to have found you
00:49:55Just on one of those lines
00:49:56Just hold it for a minute
00:49:58I was going up
00:50:00But then I chickened out
00:50:01Because I was crying
00:50:02Yeah, it was hard to come from a tear
00:50:03It is
00:50:04You might be my favorite person
00:50:06That's walked through those doors
00:50:07In the past three days
00:50:09You're my new best friend
00:50:09Um, you're gorgeous
00:50:12Thank you
00:50:12Like you look famous already
00:50:15I just think you have
00:50:16Just a beautiful simplicity to your voice
00:50:19You're one that I'm going to think about
00:50:21When we leave here
00:50:22Like, I wonder what song she's going to sing next
00:50:24And I feel like I'm going to be
00:50:26Just rooting for you
00:50:27I loved everything about everything
00:50:30You just did
00:50:31Thank you so much
00:50:32I mean, it's a yes
00:50:32I'll go first
00:50:33It's a yes for me
00:50:34I'll go second
00:50:34It's a yes for me
00:50:36Yes for me

00:50:42It's nice to meet you
00:50:43Nice to meet you too
00:50:43Oh my God, I'm chicken
00:50:50Hearing Carrie say
00:50:51That I was one of her favorite people
00:50:52That has walked through the doors
00:50:53I almost melted in my boots
00:50:54That's the biggest compliment
00:50:55I've ever received
00:50:56She was great
00:50:58Goodness
00:50:59It means a lot to me
00:51:01To get up there
00:51:01And stand and represent other moms
00:51:04And let them know
00:51:05That they're not alone
00:51:06And let them know
00:51:07That they can still chase their dreams
00:51:08With their little people
00:51:09Some real juice on that one
00:51:12Unassuming
00:51:13Sweet
00:51:15Perfectly moldable into stardom
00:51:21And I'm going to love you
00:51:23So we're going to get in here
00:51:26Can you help me put it on the fridge?
00:51:38Can you help me put it on the fridge?
00:51:46It's a game of give and take
00:51:48I remember mama's bed
00:51:49Oh, I miss me
00:51:50Have you seen the guy do the
00:51:53With pins and stuff?
00:51:54Is that one of your TikToks?
00:51:55Yeah, that's TikTok
00:51:56I can tell right away
00:51:57He's on the TikTok doom scroll
00:52:03Oh, man
00:52:04I remember swearing off TikTok
00:52:06And now I'm a TikToker
00:52:17I'm addicted to TikTok
00:52:19I'll just go on and say it
00:52:20If anybody wants to intervene
00:52:24Oh, look at that
00:52:26Oh, my
00:52:35And now I'm actually scrolling
00:52:37Finding talent
00:52:38That somehow makes it
00:52:40In front of us judges
00:52:42Well, tell us how you made it here
00:52:44Somebody happened to see me
00:52:46That's right
00:52:48What's your dreams in music?
00:52:50I want to go from being a TikTok singer
00:52:53To a real singer
00:52:54And I also really want a Birkin bag
00:52:55Oh
00:52:57I've been everywhere, man
00:52:59Looking for you, babe
00:53:01Looking for you, babe
00:53:02Searching for you
00:53:05But, Lord
00:53:06I've had a lot of no's
00:53:07I don't want to tell you no
00:53:09Because I feel like I'm responsible
00:53:10For bringing you here
00:53:11But it's a no for me right now
00:53:16It's gonna be a no for me this year
00:53:18I agree
00:53:19It's a no for me
00:53:21Obviously, I'm learning that TikTok
00:53:23Has filters on it
00:53:24To make you sound amazing
00:53:26So
00:53:27Maybe I need to go find those filters
00:53:29And sing on them myself
00:53:31All right
00:53:31Tell the world how you arrived here
00:53:33I had somebody message me
00:53:35And they were like
00:53:35Hey, come on in
00:53:36Well, I might have seen you on TikTok
00:53:39But I must say currently
00:53:41I'm 0 for 2 on TikTok referrals
00:53:44People know where this is gonna be
00:53:47Come on
00:53:49Think I'm gonna be okay
00:53:50Yes, sir
00:53:51Yes, sir
00:53:52Think I ended the slump, Lionel?

00:56:17As she comes in
00:56:18And they don't know what this
00:56:19That's the entrance
00:56:21Carmelita
00:56:23I really should do that
00:56:24Does anyone have a glass and a knife?
00:56:28Why do you have a wine glass?

00:56:35Howdy, howdy, howdy

00:56:41What do you have?
00:56:44I have an announcement
00:56:45What is the announcement?
00:56:47This is my beautiful niece
00:56:50Carmelita
00:56:50That's been her nickname since she was born
00:56:53Carmelita
00:56:53That is me
00:56:54Do you know me?
00:56:56I'm Brittany
00:56:58Brittany Bateman
00:57:01The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City
00:57:03Oh, we are
00:57:04Yes
00:57:04But this is not about me
00:57:06This is about my amazing, gorgeous, perfect niece
00:57:09Hi
00:57:10Who you're about to hear
00:57:12And it's insane
00:57:13Well, if we don't have good things to say
00:57:15She has a knife
00:57:16She has a weapon
00:57:17So, all right, Miss Brittany
00:57:18You can go right there on that X
00:57:20Be careful of it
00:57:21Don't fall over there
00:57:22Give away the spotlight to the niece
00:57:25All right, let's hear it
00:57:26Let's hear it
00:57:26Okay
00:57:27Do you guys want this?
00:57:29Yes
00:57:29For good keeping?
00:57:30Oh, good keeping
00:57:31Sure, yes
00:57:32Let's do it, Miss Carmen
00:57:33Okay
00:57:38I woke up with a headache today
00:57:44Cause I've got a mortgage due
00:57:47And an empty bed to make
00:57:54Baby, I bet you're happy now
00:58:00Probably found just someone new
00:58:02Who's got his life all figured out
00:58:09Girl, I thought it was love
00:58:17Girl, I knew it was love
00:58:25I guess I didn't know what love was
00:58:40Good job
00:58:42You have a really pretty voice
00:58:45Like your range is really great
00:58:47You're hitting some high notes in there
00:58:49Yeah
00:58:50But it would be great
00:58:51If you could put some oomph in there
00:58:53Yeah
00:58:53We actually might have something
00:58:55To sing together
00:58:56Okay
00:58:56Oh
00:58:57Oh, cool
00:58:58Let's hear y'all do one
00:58:59Let's hear that
00:58:59Okay
00:58:59Let's see where you go
00:59:01Just sing
00:59:01Have fun like you're in the living room
00:59:03You got it
00:59:04Okay
00:59:05Let me be your star
00:59:14I just have to forget the hurt that came before
00:59:19Forget what used to be
00:59:22The past is on the cutting room floor
00:59:27The future is here with me
00:59:37It's all you've been needing
00:59:41It's all here and my heart's bleeding
00:59:44Let me be your star
00:59:57That was great
00:59:58Wow
01:00:00I learned
01:00:01Oh, you sound so
01:00:02Yeah, I think
01:00:03Friends and the family
01:00:04I learned something
01:00:05It's very good
01:00:06It was very present there
01:00:08We just got to get you to cut loose a little bit
01:00:10I think the piano is forcing you to be very proper
01:00:13Oh, you should see me with a band
01:00:15Well, we got to get you to the band
01:00:18That's very true
01:00:19That's very true
01:00:20I think that the only way she's going to actually understand this thing called roughing up
01:00:26Is to put her in a brawl
01:00:28And the only way to put you in a brawl is to say yes
01:00:31So you can go to the next level and meet the rest of this crazy class
01:00:35And you'll understand what this means
01:00:37Oh, yeah
01:00:38Okay
01:00:38So it's a yes for me
01:00:40I think your voice has definitely earned you a yes
01:00:44But I want to see some fire
01:00:47I can show it
01:00:48I kind of believe you can
01:00:49Is a yes
01:00:51Hey
01:00:53Let me see the glass
01:00:54Boom, boom, ding, ding, ding
01:00:56Not too hard there
01:00:56Not too hard
01:00:57I need you to come get your golden ticket
01:01:00I have an announcement
01:01:05We're going to Hollywood

01:04:06My name is Braden Rumfelt
01:04:07I'm 22 years old
01:04:09And I'm from
01:04:09Murphy, North Carolina
01:04:10You still got it
01:04:14Ayy
01:04:16Oh, no
01:04:17When I was young, my life revolved around baseball.
01:04:20My twin brother, Kellen, and I played sports constantly.
01:04:25Dad was dead set on us becoming college athletes.
01:04:32Unfortunately, going into high school, I was starting to have knee pain in both of my legs.
01:04:38Then I found out that I have a congenital issue.
01:04:42My legs are naturally in the wrong position.
01:04:48I needed surgery. I needed two lower leg realignments.
01:04:53That put a stop to the dreams of becoming an athlete.
01:04:58It was tough seeing everybody be able to get to do what I wanted to do.
01:05:04As I'm hurt, it kind of hit me like, wait, I feel better when I am singing.
01:05:10And my twin brother, Kellen, was there for me.
01:05:14He was kind of like my voice of encouragement.
01:05:19Growing up until now, I always felt that his talent is music, is singing.
01:05:24And I couldn't be more proud of Brayden because of everything that he's going through,
01:05:30where he's at now with pursuing his new dream.
01:05:32He's my hero.
01:05:35The only reason that I hadn't signed up for American Idol was because I was scared.
01:05:40This is my dream.
01:05:42I didn't know that I would get like a, you know, a chance like this.
01:05:45So this is, this is really awesome.
01:05:48What's up?
01:05:49Hey.
01:05:51How's it going?
01:05:52I'm really good.
01:05:53Who are you?
01:05:54My name's Brayden Rumfelt.
01:05:56I'm 22 years old.
01:05:57I'm from Murphy, North Carolina.
01:05:58This is my twin, Kellen.
01:06:00Twin brother.
01:06:01Oh, yeah.
01:06:01Did y'all grow up playing music together?
01:06:03We did.
01:06:04As long as I've been sentient, I've been singing.
01:06:06Good deal, good deal.
01:06:08What do you want to sing for us?
01:06:10Girl Crush by Little Big Town.
01:06:12Let's hear it.
01:06:13You ready?
01:06:13Yep, I'm ready to go.
01:06:21I got a girl crush.
01:06:25Hate to admit it, but
01:06:28I've got a hard rush.
01:06:33It's slowing down.
01:06:36Yeah, I want to taste her lips.
01:06:40Yeah, cause they taste like you.
01:06:44I want to drown myself in a bottle of her, her, for you.
01:06:51I want her long, blonde hair.

01:07:06And I've got a girl crush.
01:07:09Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:07:21I want to taste her lips.
01:07:25Yeah, cause they taste like you.
01:07:29I want to drown myself in a bottle of her, her, for you.
01:07:37I want her long, blonde hair.

01:07:45Yeah, cause maybe then you'd want me just as much.

01:08:14What do you think, Carrie?
01:08:15I'm happy.
01:08:16I'm happy.
01:08:17Surprising.
01:08:18I don't know what I expected to come out of your mouth,
01:08:21but that wasn't it, and it made me happy.
01:08:23I feel like you are very nervous.
01:08:26I am.
01:08:27You've got to loosen up.
01:08:28Like, I wanted to come out there and just, like,
01:08:30shake your arms and throw your vest across the room,
01:08:34and I think you're a racehorse, man.
01:08:36Don't you agree?
01:08:37I agree.
01:08:38You have a top end to your voice.
01:08:42It's not as high as Steve Perry,
01:08:43but the texture when you get up there is so sweet, man.
01:08:49It doesn't break.
01:08:49No, it does not.
01:08:51And we can wake the outside of you up
01:08:54to combine it with the inside of you,
01:08:56what's coming out.
01:08:59We've got show business.
01:09:02Oh, he can sing, y'all.
01:09:03Oh, yeah, he can.
01:09:04Yes, he can.
01:09:05He'll do really good in this competition.
01:09:06He'll do really great.
01:09:07I think we can one, two, three it.
01:09:08Yeah.
01:09:09One, two, three.
01:09:10Here we go to Hollywood.
01:09:12Hollywood week, look at it.
01:09:15Hollywood week.
01:09:16It's going to be fun.

01:09:19I appreciate it.
01:09:20Good job.
01:09:20Got to get a handshake on you, too, man.
01:09:22Come on, don't be fooling around.
01:09:23Yes, sir.

01:09:30Bye.
01:09:31Awesome.
01:09:32High five.
01:09:33We're fired up.
01:09:33We're fired up.
01:09:35Let's go.
01:09:37Like, are we...
01:09:38Is this real?
01:09:39You know, I almost wanted to pinch myself.
01:09:42That was nice.
01:09:43Heck yeah.
01:09:44They love it.
01:09:45A standard, standard ovation.
01:09:46With the struggles that I've had over the years, couldn't be happier.
01:09:51He is 80% of what he could be doing.
01:09:54He's got such potential.
01:10:06That was crazy to see how well he did.
01:10:10We've got a lot of memories together under our belt, and I wouldn't be here without his
01:10:15help, and I love this guy.
01:10:18He's the best.
01:10:18You're going to make me cry, dude.
01:10:20I'm going to Hollywood week.
01:10:22He's the best.
01:10:23He's the best.
01:10:24Yeah.
01:10:31An old cow poke went riding out a dark and windy day.
01:10:37Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way.
01:10:41When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw.
01:10:45Plowing through those ragged skies.
01:10:48And up the cloudy draw
01:10:52Yippee-yi-yi
01:10:56Yippee-yi-yi
01:11:00For this ghost rider's in the sky
01:11:08Sorry, that was...
01:11:09There you go. It happens.
01:11:11You know, Matthew, I mean, right now you're just doing sing-along.
01:11:15We're talking about lead singer, center stage, crowd screaming at you.
01:11:22I'm going to give you a passionate no, because you're passionate about this business.
01:11:28I think that passion is going to take you a long way. Don't lose that spark, man.
01:11:33It's a no today, but I'm not going to stop working. I'm not going to give up.
01:11:40I'm going to make the best of this moment.
01:11:42You have been on some amazing platforms.
01:11:47You've been with national recording artists.
01:11:50But today is your day.
01:11:53Hi. Come on in.
01:11:55What's your name?
01:11:57My name is Tiana Roberts.
01:11:59What brings you to us today?
01:12:02I'm just ready to get myself out there, take the risk.
01:12:06That's just kind of been my motto for the year.
01:12:08No risk, no story.
01:12:09No risk, no story.
01:12:11What's the deal with that?
01:12:12Well, last year I had a miscarriage.
01:12:16That moment made me realize that life is short.
01:12:19And I could just think of all the things that I didn't do because I was too scared.
01:12:23I decided that the risk was worth the sacrifice.
01:12:26So, no risk, no story.
01:12:28So, here I am.
01:12:29I like that.
01:12:31Very good.
01:12:31Well, what are you going to be singing for us?
01:12:34I'm going to be singing a hymn called Pass Me Not.
01:12:36Okay?
01:12:37Okay.
01:12:45Pass me not, O gentle Savior.
01:12:52Say, Savior, hear my humble cry.
01:13:08While, while on others thou art falling,
01:13:19Savior, do, do not pass me, me by.
01:13:29I'm crying, Savior.
01:13:36Oh, Savior.
01:13:39Savior, why don't you hear my humble cry?
01:13:52Oh, while, while on others thou art calling, Savior, do, do not pass me.
01:14:09Pass me, me by.
01:14:13Oh, oh, oh.
01:14:17To, do not pass me by.
01:14:38Wow.
01:14:39You have an incredible voice.
01:14:41I feel like we've been waiting for you all day.
01:14:44Tell me about it.
01:14:46When you have a foundation and an instrument like you have,
01:14:49it's just a matter of what song would you like to sing.
01:14:52On this show, it's going to be challenging
01:14:53because you're going to cover everything from Disney songs
01:14:56all the way across to every event that ever happened in life
01:14:59in the music world.
01:15:00You can handle it with that voice any day of the week.
01:15:03I love what you did.
01:15:04Thank you so much.
01:15:05Well, great big voice.
01:15:07You just sang within your means.
01:15:09When I saw you going for the big note,
01:15:11I was like, uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh, she got it.
01:15:15All right, she saved it for the end.
01:15:17We love our gospel singers, but just get ready to branch out
01:15:20and get ready to do a lot of stuff.
01:15:22You made everything just seem very effortless.
01:15:25Your small notes were beautiful and clear and crisp.
01:15:28You kept things small, and then it grew,
01:15:30and by the end of it, you were just soaring.
01:15:33You are a really talented vocalist.
01:15:36It is a massive yes for me.
01:15:40Yes.
01:15:41It's a yes for me.
01:15:43You got three yeses.
01:15:45Okay.
01:15:49Thank you so much.
01:15:51Your girl did it.
01:15:58I don't even have words to describe what it felt like for them to say,
01:16:03we've been waiting for you, like, what?
01:16:07Star, star, star, star, star, star right here.
01:16:11She's our winner.
01:16:12She will always be our winner.
01:16:14I'm proud of you.
01:16:16I'm so proud of you.
01:16:17Thank you, mama.
01:16:18I got my baby.
01:16:19I got her.
01:16:21You got your baby.
01:16:22You got your baby.
01:16:23You got your baby.
01:16:33Julian, do you remember this kid?
01:16:35Yes.
01:16:35I've thought about him a lot.
01:16:37Really, huh?
01:16:38Ah.
01:16:39Hey, guys.
01:16:40Hi.
01:16:41How are y'all?
01:16:42We're doing great.
01:16:43How are you guys?
01:16:44We're so happy to see you.
01:16:46We're happy to be here.
01:16:48One, two, one, two, three, four.
01:16:54My name is Julian Kalel Almanzan.
01:16:56I'm from El Paso, Texas, and I'm 19 years old.
01:17:01Last year at Audition, I had no idea what to expect.
01:17:05Obviously, I was terrified.
01:17:07When I talk about it with my sister,
01:17:09we both say that we kind of just blacked out
01:17:11and gave a performance of our lives, I guess.
01:17:17There's a hole in my chest
01:17:22Knock me down, lay me to rest
01:17:27Drown my thoughts with kerosene
01:17:30I performed an original song called Surrender,
01:17:32which talks about the struggles of anxiety and depression.
01:17:36So I surrender
01:17:38If his world did I have waged, I'll raise a flag
01:17:42My fate is in his hands
01:17:44I felt like I was at your show just now.
01:17:47Are you serious?
01:17:48Yeah, I did.
01:17:49Wow.
01:17:49It played like a record.
01:17:51Just a star.
01:17:52He's a star.
01:17:53Just a straight up, straight up star.
01:17:57I'll be gone without a sound
01:17:59When my heart fails me and I'm not around
01:18:01Yes!
01:18:02Yes!
01:18:03Hallelujah, yes!
01:18:05Hallelujah!
01:18:06Come here.
01:18:07The things that the judges told me
01:18:08I felt like my life was changing in that moment.
01:18:12He may win this thing.
01:18:13Boom!
01:18:14He literally might win it.
01:18:17It was one of the greatest moments of my life.
01:18:20Oh, I surrender
01:18:20I'm going to Hollywood!
01:18:27Unfortunately, though, I was not able to continue forward.
01:18:30There were shared concerns about my abilities to balance a journey like American Idol and my mental health.
01:18:42I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression my freshman year of high school.
01:18:47But I had been struggling with those feelings for a big part of my life.
01:18:51I mean, through even elementary and middle school.
01:18:54He came up to us and said, I am not okay.
01:18:57There's something happening with me.
01:18:59I mean, it's a knife to your chest.
01:19:02Because you're thinking, you know, what's going on?
01:19:05What's happening?
01:19:06And he said, I'm sad all the time.
01:19:11For me, anxiety is just like a big wave crashing on you.
01:19:16And you just drown.
01:19:20I was pushing the value of my life.
01:19:24You have to look in the mirror and recognize that mental health professionals need to get involved.
01:19:31And that there's no shame in that.
01:19:39Music is my lifeline.
01:19:42It's what keeps me grounded.
01:19:45I had so much to smile about with my audition.
01:19:48And I just knew, like, I really regret it if I didn't give this another shot.
01:19:52I'm just hoping that whatever I'm doing just reflects the message of just not giving up.
01:19:58And most importantly, to not be defined by your struggles, but by your strengths.
01:20:04I choke up just thinking about it because I'm very lucky to be here.
01:20:08You know, life is a gift.
01:20:11For you to come back out here to try this, we are very happy and proud of you.
01:20:16We are so happy to be here.
01:20:17Thank you so much.
01:20:18So, what are you going to do for us?
01:20:20The song today is called Long Guitar.
01:20:22I wrote it at a very dark time in my life where I was at a crossroads of deciding whether
01:20:27or not to give up or to keep going.
01:20:29Huh.
01:20:29And found that, you know, it's as simple as just stay one more day.
01:20:34That's the message.
01:20:36It's been rough.
01:20:37We've had some rough years.
01:20:39And this song in particular, it's suicide prevention, basically.
01:20:51What do you see when you look at me?
01:20:57The blessings that I'm letting go, Lord, you forgive so easily.
01:21:02It's getting harder to find peace.
01:21:07I get the chance to grow old, but I'm not the man that I should never fail to travel.
01:21:15Helen, by every night, too far gone for prayer.
01:21:19Just a boy afraid to die.
01:21:26Oh, heartache, stare, words unspoken, the burden of my flaws.
01:21:32An empty chair, a family broken, pain is all I cause.
01:21:37I should stay.
01:21:39I should stay.
01:21:42You walk in daydream, thoughts unholy, damn near giving up.
01:21:47Hug your mama till there's just enough to see that old sun rise.
01:21:54Mmm, I should stay.
01:21:59I should stay.
01:22:01Oh, I'll stitch phones and learn to love these remarks along the way.
01:22:06Oh, I should stay.
01:22:08Lord, let me stay.
01:22:12I got too much to give.
01:22:14I got I love you.
01:22:16So say don't want to make my old man cry.
01:22:19Leave my mama screaming, why?
01:22:21I guess I'm in this bleeding heart, lighthead in my way.
01:22:28To the boy alone in the suffering, thinking no one understands.
01:22:33If it's strength that you need, you don't have to be a man.
01:22:45Awesome, thank you.
01:22:47Ronald, what you think?
01:22:48Welcome back.
01:22:50Welcome back.
01:22:51I'm going to leave you with some words that I keep repeating over and over again, and I'm
01:22:56going to pass it on to you.
01:22:58You were born enough.
01:22:59I haven't seen too many years.
01:23:01Come on, Julian.
01:23:02Come on.
01:23:03Come on.
01:23:04But I have fear and I have love.
01:23:06Everything about you is just honest, and you organize your thoughts and your feelings
01:23:12into song in a way that comes across so real.
01:23:18That is something that's needed.
01:23:20Very much.
01:23:21Yeah, man.
01:23:22You got the magic.
01:23:23Okay.
01:23:30I think that you're incredible.
01:23:32I think you have all the skills and tools of a great singer.
01:23:35So glad you're back, and we'll just have fun with this thing.
01:23:38How about that?
01:23:39Absolutely.
01:23:44What do you think, Lionel?
01:23:47Say yes for me.
01:23:49Yes for me.
01:23:51Yes for me.
01:23:53Let's go.
01:23:54Thank you, guys.
01:23:55Thank you so much.
01:23:56Welcome to Hollywood Week, friend.
01:23:58We're back.
01:23:59My parents.
01:24:00You did it, Nico.
01:24:02Carissa.
01:24:03Carissa.
01:24:05You did it, Nico.
01:24:06Congratulations.
01:24:11I just felt understood.
01:24:12I felt seen for the artist that I try to be.
01:24:16I want to spread my message.
01:24:18You are loved, and everyone is born enough.
01:24:21Everyone is, in fact, born enough.
01:24:29You're one of my absolute favorites.
01:24:32God bless you with an instrument.
01:24:34The first time I've had full body chills the whole time.
01:24:37Oh, my God.
01:24:40You can't learn what you just did.
01:24:42You are a star.
01:24:46No way!
01:24:48Hello.
01:24:49Anybody want to sing for us?
01:24:50Oh, man.
01:24:51I'm sorry.
01:24:52You're going to Hollywood Week.
01:24:54Yay!
01:24:57You were born to sing.
01:24:58I'm sorry.
01:25:00I'm sorry.
