00:25:26I felt it.
00:25:27I felt a little Holy Spirit in the room, which was really wonderful.
00:25:31I also felt a little nerves from you, which I know is impossible.

00:25:54Yeah, let me tell you.
00:25:55I mean, you're plucked out of your real life.
00:25:57You have to understand that.
00:25:59For 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.

00:53:50Yeah, really well done
00:53:52I still feel like you have so much star potential
00:53:56And star quality
00:53:57And that gave me all of those vibes
00:53:59Just 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
00:54:08It's number one
00:54:09In everybody's category
00:54:11What's happening now
00:54:12Is everybody's carving out
00:54:14Their own lane
00:54:15And that was your lane clearly
00:54:17Now what I want you to do
00:54:18On 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
00:54:29Is carve out your part
00:54:32That's memorable
00:54:33To the listeners out there
00:54:35Yes, sir
00:54:36Thank you, Lionel
00:54:37Thank you
00:54:38Yeah, I'll second Lionel
00:54:40On this one
00:54:41I feel like you are on your way
00:54:42To really establishing
00:54:44Like your own sound
00:54:45You have a really great way
00:54:48Of taking somebody else's song
00:54:50And I mean
00:54:51We first heard you singing
00:54:52Your own stuff
00:54:53But now we're kind of
00:54:54Hearing you sing some covers
00:54:55But you're really good
00:54:56At taking those songs
00:54:57And putting yourself in them
00:54:59You're not trying to sound
00:54:59Like the other artists

00:57:54Oh, precious is the flow
00:57:57God, precious is the flow
00:57:57Nothing 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.

01:01:33But, 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.
01:04:01I can only imagine.
01:04:01I can only imagine.
01:04:01I can only imagine.
01:04:03I can only imagine.
01:04:04I can only imagine.
01:04:05I can only imagine.
01:04:06I can only imagine.
01:04:07I can only imagine.
01:04:09I can only imagine.
01:04:10I can only imagine.
01:04:14I can only imagine.
01:04:18I can only imagine.
01:04:30That's all I have to say.
01:04:33God bless you.
01:04:36Every time we see you, you have the ability to, like, 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?
01:04:47And that'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.
01:05:08Amen.
01:05:09Amen.
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.
01:05:20Yeah.
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.
01:05:30That's how you get the votes.

01:11:49Relatable song
01:11:49I think I've ever heard
01:11:51It means a lot to me
01:11:53To represent other moms
01:11:58There's a place
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 and wide
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
01:12:40At the cross
01:12:42I surrender my life

01:25:37Kane and James Hill, Filo, Colby, and the amazing Carrie Underwood.
01:25:49Okay, the voting, it's about to close during this commercial break, so lock in your votes.
01:25:56Who do you want in your top 12?
01:25:59Your results are coming live right after this.
01:26:14Back with you on American Idol.
01:26:16It has been an incredible night on this stage.
01:26:19The judges and the whole studio have been on their feet all night long, enjoying this
01:26:25Songs of Faith.
01:26:27Tom, give them the lights.
01:26:30And here we go.
01:26:31Lionel, just quickly, how, in your view, is this class shaping up?
01:26:36All right, so let me tell you something.
01:26:38Out of all the classes, this is probably the most diverse.
01:26:41When I say that, I mean from every imaginable configuration of genre, you all have managed
01:26:48to sparkle us again to the point where we don't know where you're coming from.
01:26:52All Martians are in this class.
01:26:55All 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 once we go live on the stage?
01:27:04I mean, there's definitely, there's pressure throughout, but it's just a different kind
01:27:08of pressure, you are alive, but then it also gives people the chance to rise to the occasion
01:27:13and show us what they got, and I definitely felt that tonight.
01:27:17Luke, how do you choose?
01:27:19I don't know how America chooses.
01:27:21You've got to trust your gut as a voter at home and just pick the people that, pick the
01:27:28artists that are on stage.
01:27:29Just make you smile, make you laugh, make you cry, and I don't know how America's going
01:27:36to 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.
01:28:02Want 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.
01:28:28Your top 12 will sing for your votes live all over again during our judges song contest
01:28:34with a 90s twist.
01:28:35That's next Monday, 8, 7 central, live right here.
01:28:40Good night, America.
