00:00:01Tonight, it's the conclusion of Hollywood Week, Music City Takeover.
00:00:08With the biggest cut in Idol history ahead of us, the bar has been set at an all-time high.
00:00:14I just, I'm capable of more.
00:00:16The top-notch talent continues to take the stage in hopes of becoming part of the top 30.
00:00:24He may win.
00:00:25I tried to do the best that I could.
00:00:27It's almost like she's given up.
00:00:35This is American Idol.
00:00:42After leaving it all on the stage,
00:00:48early standouts, Brayden,
00:00:51Chloe,
00:00:56Jake
00:00:57and Chris
00:01:05are about to get their results.
00:01:09All of you have done amazing work.
00:01:14Having said that,
00:01:17will the following people step forward?
00:01:19Jake
00:01:24Brianna
00:01:28Brayden
00:01:31Chris
00:01:37and Chloe
00:01:44this is something we are charged with doing, so
00:01:49front row
00:01:52you should be very proud of how far you've come.
00:01:57but for now, your journey
00:02:02it's not over yet.
00:02:05You're going through to the next round.
00:02:08Back row, thank you so much for your talent.
00:02:14So five more hopefuls can celebrate in the all-new Golden Room.
00:02:19Holy crap, how did I just do that?
00:02:23Where they'll join the others who survived the judges' first cuts.
00:02:27But in here, all they can do is wait until the end of the round,
00:02:30when the judges review all the performances in order to pare it down to this season's top 30.
00:02:36It would be tough to go home tonight.
00:02:39I don't want this to end, and I also don't want to be done.
00:02:42I want to keep singing.
00:02:44But how would the pressure land on 19-year-old Jesse Finlay?
00:02:50It is insane to be here at Hollywood Week, you know, after my audition with how well it went.
00:02:56Now you're in the stars
00:02:58And six feet's never found so far
00:03:01Every time it's the light
00:03:03We just haven't had voices like yours coming through those doors.
00:03:08I've always known that I can sing, but to get that level of validation and praise,
00:03:14it was an insane feeling.
00:03:16I'm going to be singing Love in the Dark by Adele.
00:03:19When I was younger and when I watched American Idol,
00:03:21Love in the Dark was one of those songs that I was like,
00:03:24I want to sing that on this show one day.
00:03:25I do feel a little bit of pressure.
00:03:29The audition was just in front of the three judges,
00:03:32And now it's in front of a thousand people.
00:03:35So the stakes are definitely higher.
00:03:49Take your eyes off of me, so I can be far too ashamed to do it with you watching me.
00:04:06Please stay where you are.
00:04:11Don't come any closer.
00:04:16Wow.
00:04:16Don't try to change my mind.
00:04:20I'm being cruel to be kind.
00:04:25I can't love you in the dark.
00:04:33It feels like we're oceans apart.
00:04:44There's so much space between us.
00:04:48Baby, we're already defeated.
00:04:53Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:04:58Everything changed me.
00:05:00Everything changed me.
00:05:02We're not the only ones.
00:05:05I don't regret a thing.
00:05:07Every word I've said, you know I'll always mean it is the world to me.
00:05:14That you are in my life.
00:05:16I want to live and not just survive.
00:05:27That's why I can't love you in the dark.
00:05:38I want to live and not just survive.
00:05:41You know what I'm doing.
00:05:46You know what I'm doing.
00:05:47I don't know.
00:05:47Get out of here.
00:05:49Go.
00:05:50I just...
00:05:57You know what the hell?
00:05:57I'm like, Jackie.
00:05:58You got his.
00:05:59You got the...
00:05:59What are you doing?
00:06:00Oh my God.
00:06:02Thanks, everyone.
00:06:08There's so many things I wanted to say
00:06:10that I was trying to kick you out of the room
00:06:11because I'm so jealous of you.
00:06:13But your first note,
00:06:15Carrie started drawing hearts everywhere.
00:06:18No kidding.
00:06:19And what a pro-dynamic of singing.
00:06:23And you are so deserving of this time in your life right now
00:06:27to be discovered on this platform.
00:06:29And I'm so excited to see your future.
00:06:33Thank you, Luke. Thank you.
00:06:38While Jesse waits for his result,
00:06:41the spotlight now belongs to his fellow hopefuls,
00:06:44including 29-year-old singer-songwriter Kendall Inskeep.
00:06:49Usually when I take the stage,
00:06:50it takes a couple songs for me to get comfortable.
00:06:52So it's such a challenge this week
00:06:54because you only have one shot
00:06:55to really be authentic to who you are.
00:06:59I grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana.
00:07:01My mom sang Worship in the Church,
00:07:03and we would sing together.
00:07:06So that's kind of like where my love for music came from
00:07:09is my mom.
00:07:10I moved almost eight years ago to Nashville.
00:07:13I actually came to Belmont.
00:07:14Came here for maybe 60 days.
00:07:17But we are still alumni.
00:07:18So we're here for only 60 days.
00:07:20This week, I'm singing Human by The Killers.
00:07:25The song is a little bit more lively.
00:07:28I'm not going to have a guitar in my hand,
00:07:29so it's not really in my comfort zone.
00:07:32How are you feeling?
00:07:34A little nervy.
00:07:35You're nervous?
00:07:35I get that a little bit.
00:07:36But this is a really great opportunity
00:07:39for me to really show
00:07:41I can also be free-spirited and fun
00:07:44and joyful in my performance.
00:07:47So I'm ready to step out on that stage.
00:07:51Okay.
00:07:56I did my best to notice
00:07:59When the call came down to wind
00:08:02Up to the platform of surrender
00:08:06I was broad, but I was kind
00:08:11Sometimes I get nervous
00:08:14When I see an open door
00:08:17Close your eyes
00:08:20Clear your heart
00:08:24Cut the cord
00:08:26Are we human?
00:08:30Or are we dancing?
00:08:33My sign is vital
00:08:36My hands are cold
00:08:40And I'm on my knees
00:08:43Looking for the answer
00:08:46Are we human?
00:08:50Or are we dancers?
00:08:55Will your sister be all right?
00:08:59When you held me down a lot
00:09:01There's no message we're receiving
00:09:05Don't you know it's in your heart beating?
00:09:11Are we human?
00:09:14Are we human?
00:09:18Are we human?
00:09:19My sign is vital
00:09:20My hands are cold
00:09:25And I'm on my knees
00:09:28Looking for the answer
00:09:30Are we human?
00:09:35Are we human?
00:09:39Are we human?
00:09:43Are we dancers?
00:09:52Thank you
00:09:55You got such a cool voice, Kendall
00:09:58Thank you so much
00:09:59And I love how at this time you switched it up
00:10:01And you kind of gave us this pop rock vibe
00:10:03That you know it was a lot more energetic
00:10:06And you felt comfortable in both spaces
00:10:08So I think you should be really proud of that
00:10:11Thank you so much
00:10:13I love her
00:10:14I love her
00:10:15That voice you got
00:10:16Oh my god
00:10:17It's cool
00:10:17And she's comfortable
00:10:18She's so comfortable
00:10:21I can
00:10:21I'm going to cry
00:10:23Because
00:10:25I'm going to cry
00:10:26Because I just
00:10:27Like was so nervous
00:10:29Going on
00:10:30I'm very happy
00:10:31With the way that I just went
00:10:34Now it's time for Kendall and Jessie to see
00:10:37If they've done enough to survive
00:10:39The first round of cuts
00:10:41Would the following people please step forward
00:10:45Jessie
00:10:47Kendall

00:12:01Terry, how is Hollywood Week in Music City going?
00:12:04Hollywood Week in Music City is exciting
00:12:07And it's drama
00:12:08And it's stressful
00:12:09It's very difficult
00:12:10Because we gotta get rid of so many wonderful kids
00:12:13But I'm telling you
00:12:14We're finding stars
00:12:16Stars
00:12:16Are you guys ready?
00:12:18Everyone out here is mind-blowing
00:12:20So my nerves are definitely
00:12:22Definitely up now
00:12:24I never would have thought I would be right here ever
00:12:27It's just kind of a dream that I don't realize that I'm living
00:12:30This is a huge opportunity for me
00:12:32Coming to the stage
00:12:33Here's Cutter Bradley
00:12:36I moved away from home
00:12:37To do this dream
00:12:38Kind of left everything behind
00:12:40So I want to stay really bad
00:12:49I woke up in my booze this morning
00:12:53I fell asleep in my booze last night
00:12:58I had a feeling that I run out of my hands
00:13:03Well, girl, I couldn't have been more around
00:13:09I woke up in my booze this morning
00:13:13I fell asleep in my booze last night
00:13:17And I knew I wouldn't have to take the time
00:13:19Putting them back on when I'm sober
00:13:21Yeah, I knew you'd be pissed off over me
00:13:24And I'd just be hungover
00:13:26No
00:13:28And I didn't need to take them off, no
00:13:31And I woke up in my booze this morning
00:13:41Thank you, thank you
00:13:42I feel like you've got, like, a solid voice
00:13:45I feel like you've got a big range
00:13:47You were like a lion, like, pacing back and forth
00:13:50Like, getting ready to, like, bust out of the cage
00:13:53Easy, easy, easy
00:13:54Slow down, slow down, slow down
00:13:56It was good, it was good
00:13:57Thank you
00:13:58Thank you
00:14:02This microphone is revealing a lot of singers now
00:14:10So happy to be here
00:14:11My name is Julian Kalil Almanzan
00:14:13I'm from El Paso, Texas
00:14:14I'm gonna be singing
00:14:16I'm gonna be singing
00:14:17I Can't Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt
00:14:19Good song
00:14:19And I want to be the next American Idol
00:14:21Because I want to show that your story, your pain
00:14:25Can be used to be your greatest power
00:14:27Absolutely
00:14:28Thank you
00:14:31Well, I feel really, really lucky to be here in Hollywood Week
00:14:36I'm still processing even being here
00:14:38Welcome back
00:14:40Thank you
00:14:41Last year I wasn't able to experience this round
00:14:45Because of my mental health
00:14:47You were born enough
00:14:50I feel proud of myself for making it here
00:14:54I've done a lot of growing, a lot of learning
00:14:56And so this year I'm definitely feeling much more well prepared and confident
00:15:02But I'm always nervous
00:15:04I mean, why wouldn't you be nervous in Hollywood Week
00:15:08Up until this point, I've only performed my own songs
00:15:11Tell me how you're thinking about this first cover for us
00:15:14I'm really pushing myself with this one
00:15:16It takes a different kind of connection to bring out emotion for a song that you're covering
00:15:24It demands more of me
00:15:25So the pressure's on
00:15:29Pretty nerve-wracking just thinking about it, honestly
00:15:31But I just thought, you know, I'd regret it if I showed up to Hollywood Week
00:15:35And I didn't push myself
00:15:36Turn down the light
00:15:40Turn down the bed
00:15:44Turn down these voices
00:15:48Inside my head
00:15:52Lay down with me
00:15:55Tell me no lies
00:15:59Just hold me close
00:16:02Don't patronize
00:16:07Don't patronize
00:16:11Don't patronize
00:16:12Don't patronize
00:16:15Cause I can make you love me if you don't
00:16:22You can make your heart feel something in love
00:16:31Here in the dark
00:16:36In these final hours
00:16:39I will lay down my heart
00:16:42And I'll feel the power
00:16:46But you won't
00:16:49No, you won't
00:16:53Cause I can make you love me
00:17:01If you don't
00:17:04If you don't
00:17:09If you don't
00:17:12If you don't
00:17:22Have a solid
00:17:24Though put them
00:17:25So I can make you love me
00:17:29It's all
00:17:32I can make you love me
00:17:35I can make you love me
00:17:36And I'm so
00:17:36And I'm so
00:17:37I can make you love me
00:17:37I can make you love me
00:17:37Gotta keep it together up here
00:17:38My favorite part about that
00:17:40Is when you hit your first note
00:17:41The crowd screams
00:17:42You smile
00:17:44And your smile
00:17:45Was so big
00:17:46You almost couldn't sing
00:17:47The next line
00:17:50We feel very big things for you in the future and
00:17:54That was the first of many great experiences for you, and we're just glad we get to watch
00:18:14I feel like every time I go on stage
00:18:18I still struggle with that self-doubt and I just get proven wrong every single time
00:18:22And it's really starting to feel like a blessing and I'm not ready to go home. Not at all. Why
00:18:28am I so nervous?
00:18:29I know right not easy cutter
00:18:36Julian
00:18:39You are still chasing that American Idol dream
00:18:51Is it a whirlwind for you it's more than a whirlwind it's magic it's actual magic
00:18:55I don't think my heart's ever been this full in my entire life
00:19:02Welcome back to American Idol where professor carries Hollywood week lessons have some students turning against her
00:19:10I'm not sure if that was the right song
00:19:14They just like to do me there were notes that were just like
00:19:18Awesome, and then I was hearing some that I was like what's happening right now, so I'm kind of like
00:19:25I'm it
00:19:27I heard it too I heard it too
00:19:29I'm just not sure that was the right song she only won this she knows
00:19:33You're not included in the discussion
00:19:39But Mr. Bryan seems to have been given a whole pass
00:19:42It was a little shaky to start I think make sure you do songs that really showcase that grit that
00:19:48you have
00:19:48Thank you so much
00:19:49Thank you so much
00:19:51Why don't they boo you?
00:19:54You know I'm trying to get booed
00:19:55Ask them
00:19:56You're not gonna boo him?
00:19:58You're not gonna boo Luke?
00:20:04I'm getting used to it getting used to it
00:20:08Hoping to get on Kerry's good side by living up to his name
00:20:14Is 24 year old true the star
00:20:19My first audition that's on the ballot so I really didn't get a chance to show my personality as much
00:20:24as I wanted to
00:20:25And how are you working on it?
00:20:28Just being myself
00:20:29The song I will be singing is Love and Happiness by Al Green
00:20:32It shows my personality and how I like to move around and perform
00:20:37It's more about being true to yourself and being 100%
00:20:40Well go have some fun, be you, and let's get it done
00:20:43Come on y'all!
00:20:49Something's going wrong
00:20:51Someone's on the phone line up
00:20:533 o'clock in the morning
00:20:56Yeah, yeah
00:20:58Talking about
00:21:01How she can make it right
00:21:03You better know what I'm talking about
00:21:04All I have to say is
00:21:07Love and happiness
00:21:10Wait a minute
00:21:10Make you do right
00:21:13Yeah
00:21:15Love can make you do wrong
00:21:18Yeah
00:21:19More for love I say
00:21:21Woo
00:21:23All right
00:21:24All I have to say
00:21:26Love and happiness
00:21:29Come on!
00:21:32Love and happiness
00:21:37Love and happiness
00:21:39Love and happiness
00:21:49Happy day
00:21:53Woo
00:21:59Hallelujah
00:22:00Hallelujah
00:22:01Wow
00:22:06Well, your name is Tru the Star
00:22:09Yes Lord
00:22:10And you get a band and then you start getting choreography and swagger
00:22:17But the song didn't necessarily show everybody how great and dynamic your voice is
00:22:22But it showed us how dynamic you are as an artist
00:22:28Keep being yourself
00:22:33The adrenaline is pumping right now
00:22:35I thought of breath
00:22:37But it was good
00:22:38The song just kind of
00:22:40No, it's the wrong song
00:22:41Yeah
00:22:43While True waits to see if his authenticity keeps him at the top of the class
00:22:47The pressure is on for Sheldon, who hopes to do the same
00:22:51The new thing I've discovered about Idol is that it's really stripping me right back to basics
00:22:57I've done a lot of TV shows and I've always completely covered up in a mask
00:23:00And it's avant-garde, there's crystals and diamonds, sequins, big gowns, big dresses
00:23:05This is the most stripped back, vulnerable version of myself ever
00:23:12For this round, I'll be singing Good Luck Babe by Chappell Run
00:23:16The vocal in this performance is a lot bigger than my normal ones
00:23:20I challenge myself with a big track
00:23:26It's the first time my voice has ever cracked and it cracked bad, real bad
00:23:32Am I freaking out about it?
00:23:34Yeah, it's definitely in my head
00:23:35Just take a break, take a breath, just relax
00:23:39Trust that you know what you're doing up there
00:23:41Beating myself up a little bit over it
00:23:43Maybe it's because I don't have everything on
00:23:46Maybe it's because I'm doing something completely different
00:23:48But I've come a long way
00:23:50This is like the side of me that I've kept away from a lot of people
00:23:55I've got a lot on the line here
00:24:10It's fine, it's cool
00:24:13You can say that you are nothing but you know the truth
00:24:19And guess I'm the fool
00:24:23With your arms out like an angel through the car, son
00:24:29I don't want to call it off
00:24:32But you don't want to call it love
00:24:34You only want to be the one that I call, baby
00:24:39I don't want to call it off
00:24:41But you don't want to call it love
00:24:43You only want to be the one that I call, baby
00:24:47You could kiss a hundred boys in bars
00:24:52Shoot another shot
00:24:54Try to stop the feeling
00:24:56You could say it's just the way you are
00:25:00Make a new excuse
00:25:03Now the stupid reason
00:25:05Good luck
00:25:07Good luck
00:25:09You have to stop the world
00:25:12Just to stop the feeling
00:25:15Good luck
00:25:19You have to stop the world
00:25:22Just to stop the feeling
00:25:24You have to stop the world
00:25:27Just to stop the feeling
00:25:28You have to stop the world
00:25:31Just to stop the feeling
00:25:49Thank you very much.
00:25:50Wow.
00:25:51All right.
00:25:53Welcome to America.
00:25:54Thank you so much.
00:25:55It's an honor to be here, really.
00:25:57It's hard to believe that you spent most of your career behind a mask.
00:26:02Yeah.
00:26:03Now you are revealing not only your face, but your amazing talent and your voice.
00:26:11Amazing talent.
00:26:14This could be your home.
00:26:18I would love to be here.
00:26:20Congratulations, man.
00:26:21Thank you, everyone.
00:26:26Just the most nervous thing ever.
00:26:28I mean, I've done this a lot of times.
00:26:29And of all the shows I've been on, this is the biggest cut I've ever seen.
00:26:35If I call your name, step forward, please.
00:26:41Sheldon.
00:26:48You're going through.
00:26:49You're going to have to sweat it out in the golden room for a little longer.
00:26:52You're going through.
00:26:52Say it to me louder.
00:26:56True.
00:26:58Say it to me louder.
00:27:02You'll be joining them all, sir.
00:27:13My heart's going crazy.
00:27:15American Idol have the best of the best, and I wanted to compete with the best of the best.
00:27:19I feel like this is destiny.
00:27:21This is all made to be.
00:27:22We ain't done yet.
00:27:23There's more.
00:27:23There's more to come.
00:27:24Let's keep going until the wheels fall off.
00:27:30Audience on your feet.
00:27:32Make some noise for Jason Barnes.
00:27:35Back in our city auditions, Jason's team helped him knock it out of the park.
00:27:40I'm here with the Texas Tailgaters, which is entertainment baseball.
00:27:44Ow!
00:27:44I got into it, actually, as a singer.
00:27:46Going forward, it's just taking this part of you seriously.
00:27:51And now, in Hollywood Week, he must prove himself on his own.
00:27:55If you're calling back, my heart is still yours.
00:28:00I should have listened to it a little more.
00:28:03On those choruses, make sure you enunciate through them on those big notes.
00:28:08The devil's in the details.
00:28:10And I still love you.
00:28:16Jason, this is the end of your American Idol journey.
00:28:20I think my buddies would be more than proud of me.
00:28:23I gave you everything I had.
00:28:25That's all I can do.
00:28:26And for so many others, giving their all still had them coming up short.
00:28:31Maddie.
00:28:33Kitty.
00:28:35Landon.
00:28:36This is the end of the road.
00:28:38Thank you very much.
00:28:39I might have just not really been as, like, prepared as I would have liked to be.
00:28:44I've never really sung on a stage by myself before.
00:28:48I think I gave great rocks to our lives, but maybe I didn't.
00:28:52My body language didn't say it.
00:28:53You know, I try my hardest.
00:28:55But it wasn't enough.
00:28:57Someday you'll be gone.
00:29:01And I used to fear nothing at all.
00:29:06But for Julianne, she ends her journey with a risk that didn't pay off, performing her original song.
00:29:13And I'm close to the end.
00:29:14Julianne, I am sorry to tell you that your American Idol journey ends right now.
00:29:20Take me up, help me stand.
00:29:23Even though my journey with American Idol is over, it's been such a great experience.
00:29:28I'm going to keep writing music, and this has inspired me, and I hope that my song could inspire other
00:29:33people.
00:29:35I want to die while I'm dancing.
00:29:39I hope everybody back there can hear me.
00:29:41I hope all of the contestants can hear me.
00:29:43When the stars align for you guys when you're on a stage like this is when you sing a song
00:29:50that somebody's just been waiting to hear, a song that somebody loves, and you crush it.
00:29:55Make some noise here, 22-year-old, Moor!
00:30:01Moor!
00:30:02Moor!
00:30:02Moor!
00:30:03What's up, everybody?
00:30:04I'm Moor.
00:30:05I'm going to be singing an original for you guys today.
00:30:10I'm definitely taking a risk.
00:30:11It's a risk that paid off for Moor in the past.
00:30:14I'm a songwriter at heart, and my audition was nothing short of a blessing.
00:30:21You were taken from me years ago, someone I never got to know.
00:30:28I was able to sing my original song, and that meant a lot to me.
00:30:32That writing was very cool.
00:30:34Thank you so much.
00:30:35Very, very cool.
00:30:35That means the world to me.
00:30:36I feel like I've got a story to tell that can impact and heal people, because music has healed me.
00:30:40There's definitely moments where I have doubts whether this is the right choice or not.
00:30:44Head on up.
00:30:44Yes.
00:30:45Especially a song that you wrote that no one knows.
00:30:47He's no band?
00:30:48No band.
00:30:48It's original.
00:30:49It puts a lot of weight on the performance itself.
00:30:53This song's called How to Love You.
00:31:00I thought I knew what I was throwing when I met you.
00:31:10I thought I knew where I was headed.
00:31:14You were here today.
00:31:19You're saying words, but they won't reach my head.
00:31:29Can't fix it now, when you're already picturing the end.
00:31:39And I'm lost on how to love you.
00:31:49Oh, I'm lost on how to love you.
00:31:55It's good, though.
00:31:58Oh, and I can't go on without you.
00:32:31Thank you guys so much.
00:32:33Oh my gosh.
00:32:35I feel you guys are going to boo me.
00:32:37You're going to boo me.
00:32:39It's coming.
00:32:40Just bring it on.
00:32:41I love it.
00:32:44Your boos are feeding me.
00:32:48In a room like this, for you to bring an original song with that incredible band sitting behind
00:32:53you like twiddling their thumbs, I feel like it was just a missed opportunity.
00:32:58And I love your voice.
00:33:01I love you.
00:33:02I understand.
00:33:02I understand.
00:33:03Thank you, though.
00:33:04But I loved being in an intimate room with you like that and listening to you tell your story.
00:33:13I feel like you took a risk here.
00:33:15And it paid off.
00:33:25I don't regret my decision.
00:33:27I love being able to do that song for all those people.
00:33:29That's what we want.
00:33:30Give me more of that.
00:33:32More.
00:33:33Please step forward.
00:33:36You are going to the golden room.
00:33:39Your journey with us continues.
00:33:42Let's go, baby.
00:33:43I'm in the consideration for Top 30.
00:33:45The fact that I have made it this far with original music, it just gives me the confidence
00:33:49to know that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life.
00:33:57I'm just so grateful to friggin' be here.
00:34:05Back on Idle, where the ladies of Hollywood Week are stealing the show.
00:34:30We're so glad to have you back in our presence and you are singing your butt off.
00:34:36Congratulations.
00:34:40Talk to me to spend my time.
00:34:45I give you yours, so give me my heart.
00:34:51And if it's sweet as hard as mine, then I'm in and out of time.
00:35:05You are really, really one of our dynamic singers in this competition.
00:35:10Thank you so much.
00:35:13Up next is Ray, who wowed the judges in auditions with her dad by her side.
00:35:18You make me feel, you make me feel like a natural woman.
00:35:32What does it mean for you to be here right now, to finally be here?
00:35:35My dad actually suffered from a stroke a year ago, a severe one. I almost lost him. And he's here
00:35:44with me right now.
00:35:45Oh, so great.
00:35:48After an emotional audition, how have you gotten ready for today? Are you ready with the song? Have you rehearsed
00:35:53it enough? How'd it go with the band?
00:35:57Rehearsal was okay, wasn't the best.
00:36:01I feel like you're kind of wearing the mistakes. So like when you didn't hit the note, you're wearing it
00:36:07on your face.
00:36:07Yeah.
00:36:08I'm like really in my head right now. I'm just worried about my dad because this trip has been really
00:36:15hard on him.
00:36:16Like he can't like sit in one spot for too long and he just gets like really tired. And I
00:36:23just want to make him proud. I want to make it worth his while.
00:36:27Here's 24 year old, Ray!
00:36:41Stone cold, stone cold, you see me standing but I'm dying on the floor.
00:36:52Stone cold, stone cold, maybe if I don't cry I won't feel anymore. Stone cold, maybe if I don't cry
00:37:07I won't feel anymore. Stone cold, maybe God knows I tried to be him.
00:37:15But if you know that I am, even if I can't understand. If I'm being tired, then I'm happy for
00:37:39you.
00:37:40I wish I could be this boy is my good boy.
00:37:50I wish I could be this boy is my good boy.
00:38:18Then I'm happy for you.

00:39:09127 to 30
00:39:16I hope you all know how difficult this decision has been that said
00:39:23Ruby
00:39:25Ray
00:39:26Mary Jo
00:39:28Please don't take this as a no
00:39:36Because it is not you're still in the mix you all should be so proud of yourselves you've done such
00:39:42an amazing job
00:39:45I
00:39:46I can't believe I've made it through I'm really I don't know I'm just whoa so many emotions
00:39:52I'm in consideration for the top 30 so I'm very anxious
00:40:02I
00:40:03Feel so much gratitude. It's just speaking more life into me
00:40:07So funny
00:40:11Hollywood week is the ultimate test
00:40:14I can do it more and push myself more
00:40:18Nerves can get the best of you
00:40:22Vocally you have to stay on point when it matters most
00:40:25Hollywood week has been insane
00:40:27Pressure just keeps going up
00:40:28And staying hydrated is key
00:40:34Welcome back to American Idol
00:40:36Where inside the theater
00:40:38Our remaining hopefuls are singing for their chance at this year's top 30
00:40:42He
00:40:43Breaks it down to his knees
00:40:49God I've been broken more than a dime or two
00:40:53Yes Lord
00:40:54But then you picked me up
00:40:56And showed me what it means to be a man
00:40:59I feel like you're just like the all American boy just getting up there singing your heart
00:41:05And we will see if that was enough
00:41:07But meanwhile in the golden room
00:41:09The hopefuls who have survived the first cut wait
00:41:12With their fate in the top 30 not established
00:41:15I still could go home
00:41:16I feel like everybody in here has a little anxiety
00:41:20Yeah it's a fine line between who goes and who doesn't go
00:41:23When the talent's that good
00:41:24I think I'm nervous for them
00:41:27Every time you hear like the audience a little part of me is like
00:41:30Like you throw up
00:41:32Here I'm Jenny's six year old
00:41:34Jenny E Payroll
00:41:36Pickle Girl
00:41:37You've never Pickle Girl on them?
00:41:39I love pickles
00:41:40Who doesn't?
00:41:45You're going to still yet have to push
00:41:47Yes
00:41:47Even more with some of the singers we have
00:41:50For this performance they're going to see me bring like
00:41:53A little more of whatever they were looking for
00:41:55Especially with the band
00:41:56Like once that band started I was like
00:41:57Oh yeah I'm ready I got this
00:41:59One, two, I'm a dude
00:42:00Come on girl
00:42:01You know what's driving me nuts?
00:42:03No one's admitting that they're nervous
00:42:04And it's pissing me off
00:42:06You are nervous
00:42:07And I'm nervous
00:42:08I'm admitting that
00:42:08Just admit that you're nervous
00:42:13All of these lines across my face
00:42:18Tell you the stories of who I am
00:42:22So many stories of where I've been
00:42:27And I know I got you where I am
00:42:32But these stories don't mean anything
00:42:38When you've got no one to tell them
00:42:42Until it's true
00:42:46I was made for you
00:42:52I climbed across the mountain tops
00:42:56Swim all across the ocean
00:42:59I crossed all the lines
00:43:03I crossed all the lines
00:43:03And I broke all the rules
00:43:05Maybe I broke them all for you
00:43:10Oh, because even when I went flat through
00:43:15You made me feel like a man
00:43:19When you're in love
00:43:20And you were in love
00:43:21No, too
00:43:22I was made for you
00:43:27Oh, yes, and it's true
00:43:31You made me feel like I was made for you
00:43:48You
00:43:53Wow you had this energy around you that you just feel like you want to be on stage like owning
00:43:59the moment and
00:44:00You should be very very happy good job
00:44:08Oh

00:44:15Got that rock kind of yes top she was clear good. I feel like I won Luke over a little
00:44:21bit
00:44:21I feel really good about that and my nail just popped off perfect timing
00:44:29Next and hoping her dreams will take flight is Belmont student Jackie Bluebird from the quad to Hollywood week
00:44:35Oh, it's gone so fast
00:44:38Ever thought about auditioning for American Idol?
00:44:40Uh, yes. Yes, I would love to
00:44:42Do you have class?
00:44:43I do but like this is more important than me
00:44:46A week ago if you told me I was doing American Idol I wouldn't have believed you because I didn't
00:44:50even know I was auditioning
00:44:51But I'm just grateful to be here in the first place
00:44:54Did you forget about me?
00:44:56I will be singing you ought to know by Alanis Morrison
00:44:59I hope the judges see my potential as an artist and a performer
00:45:03I'm just so excited to show them where I have some more preparation than my audition with them initially
00:45:08Now I'm here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away
00:45:17It's not fair to deny me
00:45:22I'm the cross I bear that you gave to me
00:45:26Girl, girl, I don't know
00:45:55There's a lot of really great performers
00:45:57So I'm just glad that I went out there and did my best
00:46:00Way to own your moment
00:46:02Just remember make sure you land the vocals all the way
00:46:05But you should be very very proud
00:46:07Good job
00:46:15As the night goes on the judges are feeling the weight of some tough decisions
00:46:21Aye aye aye aye

00:46:31And Jason
00:46:36You're still in the mix
00:46:39Jackie, you're not going through
00:46:45The fact that I made it this far, I'm really grateful
00:46:48And yeah, I had a great time
00:46:53I'm a little bit in disbelief right now
00:46:55I hope this will get me into the top 30 because there are so many good people
00:47:02Stay tuned as more early favorites take the stage
00:47:06A voice that will become so recognizable in years to come

00:50:37Whenever you're in trouble
00:50:40Stay
00:50:42Stay
00:50:45By
00:50:50Me
00:51:07To take a song that we've heard so many times
00:51:10And to just take it to the raptors of this place
00:51:14You're a truly special person
00:51:16Way to go, man
00:51:20While Daniel will have to stand by for results
00:51:24Brooks hopes he could do enough to stand out
00:51:27I've never performed on a stage
00:51:30I've never performed in front of anyone besides friends and friends
00:51:33And family, so I'm very excited
00:51:35But I'm also still very nervous
00:51:38I come from a musical family
00:51:40My dad is a harmonicist
00:51:42My mother sang her whole life
00:51:44But I just never took it seriously
00:51:49Growing up was difficult for me
00:51:51I had trouble making friends
00:51:52I was very shy
00:51:54Awkward
00:51:57I started playing soccer around age six
00:52:00That kind of led to making friends
00:52:03And from that point on
00:52:05Soccer was my life
00:52:07My dream for soccer was always to go pro
00:52:09To see my last name on my back
00:52:11With a number that I liked
00:52:14My freshman year of high school
00:52:16Halfway through the soccer season
00:52:19I went for a free kick
00:52:23And I planted my left foot to kick it
00:52:26And I felt like a gear switch
00:52:27In my lower left back
00:52:29And I couldn't feel my legs
00:52:31I snapped my back in half
00:52:34And that changed everything
00:52:37It was hard for him to not be able to engage in what he loved
00:52:41And be around the other boys
00:52:43And be a part of things
00:52:45I was lost for a long time
00:52:47And then I picked up a guitar
00:52:48And I didn't want to put it down
00:52:52You haven't played out much
00:52:54Why is that?
00:52:55I'm working too much
00:52:56Well stop doing that
00:52:59I just want to hear more
00:53:02I've never been willing to take chances and opportunities
00:53:05But this holds the future that I want
00:53:09Alright, let's see what they think about him
00:53:11Alright, here we go
00:53:32I will find myself walking down the road
00:53:38All alone
00:53:40Just like a rolling stone
00:53:47There's this hope that is burning in my soul
00:53:52And it grows
00:53:54Just like an ocean wave
00:53:59There's this storm cloud heading my way
00:54:06And it keeps on pouring down
00:54:09Tears of pain
00:54:13Well this winter's a hurricane
00:54:19And it keeps on pouring down
00:54:23Tears of pain
00:54:28Cause I am lost amongst these north country stars
00:54:34Where you find me
00:54:36And lead me on home
00:54:42There's this pain that is coursing through my veins
00:54:48It's the hurt I've had since I left of you
00:55:01And it keeps on pouring down
00:55:05And it keeps on pouring down
00:55:06Tears of pain
00:55:08Well this winter's a hurricane
00:55:15And I'll keep on drowning as long as you're away
00:55:22And I'll keep on drowning as long as you're away
00:55:40A voice that will become so recognizable in years to come.
00:55:48And to be some of the first ears to ever hear it is pretty special.
00:55:55When you have this unique voice paired with these songs that are going to happen in your
00:56:01life, it's going to be really, really special.
00:56:08What was it like to perform in front of a crowd for the first time?
00:56:11It's great.
00:56:12Yeah?
00:56:12Yeah.
00:56:14Wow.
00:56:15It felt good.
00:56:17Our judges now have to decide who in this final group of the original, 127 singers in
00:56:24Hollywood Week will make it to the Golden Room and the chance to move on to the top 30.
00:56:31Bricks.
00:56:39You're going through to the next round.
00:56:41And I know for us to go, we've got a lick of-
00:56:48Bella.
00:56:51Daniel Stallworth.
00:56:52You're-
00:56:54Defining your own, as long as you know-
00:56:58You'll be joining them also.
00:57:00I hope you love fire in your heart, wherever you touch, your team's going to fall, just
00:57:08don't let it wake you alive.
00:57:10I just got a yes.
00:57:11That's crazy.
00:57:13That's crazy.
00:57:13I love you.
00:57:14What is it?
00:57:15Yes.
00:57:16This is so epic.
00:57:17This is my mom right here.
00:57:18I'm overjoyed.
00:57:19I'm overjoyed.
00:57:20I mean, I had my doubts, but I guess they liked me enough, so.
00:57:25Woo!
00:57:26Good job.
00:57:27They were so good.
00:57:29Thank you so much.
00:57:31The fans.
00:57:38How are we doing, gang?
00:57:39What's up?
00:57:40Hey.
00:57:41Hey.
00:57:42What's happening?
00:57:43Give yourselves a round of applause for those great performances out there.
00:57:48Well, there are 60 of you here in this room, and the judges said only 30 of you will go
00:57:54on to that next round.
00:57:56Right now, they're actually deliberating.
00:57:59With the task of having to cut so many hopefuls, the judges review the performances to pare
00:58:04it down to just 30.
00:58:07It's hard.
00:58:07There are people that are really good that we are having to send home.
00:58:12Soon you'll be called back into the theater, so when you are called back in, just be aware
00:58:17anything could happen.
00:58:19Everyone's fighting for their lives in here.
00:58:21It's chaos.
00:58:22I've got a massive curveball thrown at us.
00:58:24Some of us are going home.
00:58:28We've got more bloodshed coming.
00:58:30We've got more decisions to make than we're used to.
00:58:33The remaining 60 must now be cut in half again.
00:58:38As the judges decide who will make it through to the top 30.
00:58:44It's so hard having to cut this many, y'all.
00:58:46It's a big cut.
00:58:48Hopefully, we are making the right decisions.
00:58:50Well, I feel like I'm going to throw up.
00:58:52Who knows?
00:58:53I might puke.
00:58:54I don't know.
00:58:55We feel good about it.
00:58:56We've got them.
00:58:57Yeah, we got them.
00:58:58I think we do.
00:58:59With the judges' decisions made, the singers return to the theater to learn their fate.
00:59:04It's been a crazy Hollywood week here in Nashville.
00:59:08You've been through a lot.
00:59:09We've had to talk out your futures amongst us three, and it's nothing that we take lightly.
00:59:18I mean, you're all here for reasons, because you're really good.
00:59:21And if a couple of you kind of occupied the same space, we definitely have to look at that.
00:59:28So, we have some sing-offs that we're going to ask you to do.
00:59:33And I'm going to deliver the first two names of the sing-offs.
00:59:39We never planned it.
00:59:41It happened naturally.
00:59:42They have the same two last names.
00:59:46If your last name is Garner, where's the Garner's?
00:59:53Jason, Michael, the two Garner's, you're in a sing-off together.
00:59:57So, we've got a slot.
00:59:59One of you will have it.
01:00:00You are dismissed, so you can go work on your song that you want to sing.
01:00:04And y'all are our first sing-offs.
01:00:07Garner versus Garner.
01:00:12You got this.
01:00:13So, I get the second sing-off announcement.
01:00:17So, I look forward to seeing Mary Jo Young and Chloe Lauren.
01:00:24All right.
01:00:25So, it'll be you guys.
01:00:26Y'all are in the sing-off.
01:00:28All right.
01:00:28Go work on your songs.
01:00:30Bring your A-game.
01:00:32While the sing-off duos leave to prepare, the remaining finalists will now be called up in groups to find
01:00:39out who has earned their place in the top 30.
01:00:43All right.
01:00:45When I call your name, please stand up and make your way to the stage.
01:00:51Micaiah.
01:00:54Jordan.
01:00:57Lucas.
01:00:59Bella.
01:01:01Madison.
01:01:03Keila Richardson.
01:01:04I gotta make it to the top 30 for my baby.
01:01:07I'm gonna make it.
01:01:07We're gonna make it.
01:01:08We're gonna go all the way, okay?
01:01:09I got your promise.
01:01:11Brayden.
01:01:12Chris.
01:01:14I'm gonna be one of the 30 left standing.
01:01:16I mean, it means everything.
01:01:19Whatever you do, do not give up on your dreams.
01:01:23But I can see.
01:01:24Especially the dreams.
01:01:26Behind your eyes.
01:01:27Of becoming an American Idol.
01:01:31Because you're still with us.
01:01:34You're in the top 30.
01:01:36All your beautiful colors.
01:01:40Congratulations.
01:01:42All of the shades you have.
01:01:45Yeah!
01:01:46Let's go!
01:01:48You turned up.
01:01:50They had me.
01:01:52They had me.
01:01:53They had me.
01:01:53They had me.
01:01:53They had me.
01:01:54They had me.
01:02:06They had me.
01:02:07They had me.
01:02:07My life.
01:02:08The task of serving is rural.ULL��
01:02:08I'm
01:02:09a little nervous because this is the big moment. Julia.
01:02:12It means
01:02:13everything to me. You've
01:02:16already won because you're here.
01:02:19The talent is in you
01:02:23But it's going to be the end of the line
01:02:27With this moment
01:02:28To know that I made it this far
01:02:34I did everything I could
01:02:36I hate to admit I still care about you
01:02:40A little disappointed, but
01:02:42I'll be back
01:02:43Love you, Gary
01:02:44It's been a long time since I've heard you speak
01:02:47It was upsetting to hear the no
01:02:49But I know this isn't the end
01:02:50You never saw who I turned out to be
01:02:54Tiana
01:02:57Jake Thistle
01:02:59Philman Lee
01:03:00Being in the top 30 would change my life
01:03:03I definitely pray that that happens
01:03:07Brooks
01:03:09Daniel Stallworth
01:03:10Cutter

01:04:06I don't know how the judges are going to pick everyone so good
01:04:09Grant
01:04:11I'd like to be in the top 30
01:04:12I want to be in a bad

01:04:20Feel very proud of yourselves
01:04:23You're in the toughest class we have ever had
01:04:29But it's the beginning of your career
01:04:32And when I say it's the beginning
01:04:33Whatever you do is up to you
01:04:36Because
01:04:37You're not going to go through
01:04:43We wish you all the luck in the world
01:04:45God bless you
01:04:47I should be a little bit more proud of myself
01:04:50It's just thinking that I had a lot more to give
01:04:53I still feel you here in my skin and my heart
01:04:57This wasn't easy for absolutely anyone
01:04:59So
01:05:01It's hard
01:05:02Okay, we got one more group
01:05:06If I call your name, please head to the stage

01:05:38Brenna Brigman
01:05:40Ray
01:05:43Genevieve
01:05:47Abayomi
01:05:52Look at this group of all girls
01:05:55Look down the line at each other
01:05:59Sorry this is so drawn out and painful
01:06:01But
01:06:05All you girls are going through to the next round
01:06:08You're in our top 30
01:06:13Girls
01:06:13I'm feeling all of the feelings
01:06:15I'm so excited
01:06:16I'm so ready for this journey
01:06:19Wow
01:06:20Speechless
01:06:21I'm moving on
01:06:23I'm so excited
01:06:24I'm sorry
01:06:25I'm on top 30
01:06:27It's great news for the 28 who have survived Hollywood week
01:06:32But four hopefuls remain to fight for the last two spots of our top 30
01:06:36Well, you know, you always told me you do well under pressure
01:06:39Remember you told me that
01:06:41Well, guess what?
01:06:42Your dream has come true
01:06:44When I heard that I was going to be in a single from my journal
01:06:47And it automatically shot up
01:06:48And I was like, I got this
01:06:49You feel good?
01:06:51Feel confident?
01:06:52No, no
01:06:58Welcome back to Hollywood week
01:07:00Got two slots left in the top 30
01:07:04And fighting for one of those slots are Chloe and Mary Jo
01:07:08Chloe and I became really good friends the last two days
01:07:11Which makes me really sad
01:07:12We're very similar
01:07:14Not only with our tones, but also our synopsis
01:07:18So I'm kind of just like
01:07:20Bang
01:07:21Less familiar with each other are the two Garners
01:07:25Also vying for a spot in the top 30
01:07:27I'm singing off against Michael Garner
01:07:29I'm Jason Garner
01:07:30Do you know me?
01:07:31I do not know him
01:07:33Ironically, they also both sang songs by the Red Clay Strays in their auditions
01:07:38Did not expect my night to end like this
01:07:41But Michael's idol journey has been unexpected from the start
01:07:45We're going to give you a shot
01:07:46What you do with your voice is definitely beyond 16
01:07:52Like, I look at you and I see my son
01:07:56And I would not throw him in the middle of it
01:08:01It's a yes for me
01:08:04Miss Carrie, I just want to say
01:08:06I'm going to prove to you that I have what it takes
01:08:09And Michael's continued to grow during Hollywood week
01:08:12You are a 16-year-old kid doing impressive stuff
01:08:15You should be very, very proud
01:08:17It's not just about the age
01:08:18It's about what you got inside
01:08:19For fellow high schooler Jason
01:08:22The mission has been authenticity
01:08:25Your stage presence is electrified
01:08:28But I don't want you to be a gimmick
01:08:30Take your vocals and your performances really serious at this point
01:08:34Yes, sir
01:08:34And in Hollywood week, he made a believer out of Carrie
01:08:38Jason, you are genuine and you're believable
01:08:43That's great, thank you
01:08:45The boys have been rehearsing
01:08:47Yeah, this is stressful for them, boy
01:08:50Let's dig right in
01:08:51I have not heard him sing
01:08:53I'm pretty much just going in blind, yeah
01:08:54I don't want you to compare yourself to him
01:08:56Just lean in and go for it
01:08:58This is your moment
01:08:59Second chance is always, you know, your time to shine, you know
01:09:02You feel good?
01:09:03You feel confident?
01:09:05I don't know
01:09:05They got to sing for their life
01:09:08Let's bring them out
01:09:09Yeah, let's get them in here
01:09:14All right, guys
01:09:15All right, so
01:09:16The Battle of the Garners
01:09:19That totally happened
01:09:21Just by happenstance
01:09:22All right, Jason
01:09:23What are you going to sing for us?
01:09:25I'm going to sing
01:09:25That's All Right Mama
01:09:26By Elvis Presley
01:09:27All right
01:09:32Well, that's all right, Mama
01:09:35That's all right for you
01:09:37That's all right, Mama
01:09:40Just in the way you do
01:09:42But that's all right
01:09:43That's all right
01:09:45That's all right now, Mama
01:09:49Any way you do
01:09:53Well, I'm leaving town, baby
01:09:55I'm leaving town to show
01:09:57Well, then you won't be bothered with that
01:10:00And cry to your door
01:10:02But that's all right
01:10:04That's all right now, Mama
01:10:07Any way you do
01:10:19That's all right
01:10:21That's all right now, Mama
01:10:25Any way you do
01:10:31Oh, well, well
01:10:37All right, Jason
01:10:39Jason doing the showmanship
01:10:41All right
01:10:41All right
01:10:42Trying to earn it
01:10:43I like it
01:10:43Yes, sir
01:10:44All right, Michael
01:10:45What are you going to sing for us?
01:10:47I'll be singing
01:10:47Drift Away by Dobie Gray
01:10:49Sweet
01:10:50All right
01:10:50Let's hear it
01:10:51Way to go
01:11:05Day after day
01:11:07I'm more confused
01:11:11Yet I look for the light
01:11:13Through the pouring rain
01:11:18You know that's a game

01:12:47And you boys have us making decisions
01:12:50Late into the night
01:12:53Tough decisions

01:13:13Welcome back to Hollywood Week
01:13:15I wanna get lost in your rock and roll
01:13:19I wanna stress to you guys
01:13:21You are both very talented young men
01:13:26Tough decisions
01:13:28Very tough, guys
01:13:34Michael, you're in our top 30
01:13:39Jason, it's the end of the road for you, buddy
01:13:41All right
01:13:44Thank you so much
01:13:50I'm pissed
01:13:55No
01:14:03He got the top 30, which
01:14:05Well-deserved
01:14:06But I'm glad I didn't have to just sit there
01:14:09I got to go out and try to get it
01:14:10So
01:14:11Yeah
01:14:11But, oh man
01:14:12I'm just so thankful for how far I got
01:14:15God is so good
01:14:16It's just so amazing
01:14:24You know, I just went out there
01:14:26I did my best and everything
01:14:27You know, I prayed about everything
01:14:29God showed me the light
01:14:31I made it in the top 30
01:14:33All right, we just took care of one
01:14:35We have 29
01:14:37That's right
01:14:38One final spot remains
01:14:41Mary Jo or Chloe?
01:14:44I'm, ooh, that's how I feel
01:14:46Very exciting
01:14:47Chloe has a great freaking voice
01:14:48She's incredible
01:14:49And I'm like, sad because I love Chloe
01:14:52Bring all the water works
01:14:55I do know Mary Jo
01:14:56We became close throughout Hollywood Week
01:14:59She's performed many times
01:15:01And I have not
01:15:03I didn't know we were going to
01:15:04That's all right
01:15:05So this is a once-in-a-lifetime for me
01:15:09When we give you confidence
01:15:11Because we can sense that it's not all there
01:15:15Go for it all
01:15:17But since arriving at Hollywood Week
01:15:19The self-doubt has not left Chloe's side
01:15:22I feel like I let myself down
01:15:24I didn't self-sabotage really
01:15:27I tried to do the best
01:15:29That I could
01:15:30It's almost like she's given up on herself
01:15:34Mary Jo's Hollywood experience goes back five seasons
01:15:41Where her nerves led to forgetting the lyrics in her duet with Benson Boone
01:15:45Say I love
01:15:47But I can't feel a thing
01:15:50You just lived your worst nightmare
01:15:52Now that you've experienced it
01:15:54You have to understand
01:15:55We all mess up
01:15:56That's right
01:15:57But what you have
01:15:58Is a great gift
01:16:00But there was no holding back for her this season
01:16:02We're so glad to have you back in our presence
01:16:05And you are singing your butt off
01:16:08Congratulations
01:16:09Thank you
01:16:11Are they ready?
01:16:16When you're out there, I want you to say one thing to yourself in your head
01:16:18Do not rush
01:16:20You're meant to do this
01:16:21Get out there and sing the you know what out of this song
01:16:25Amen
01:16:26All right, ladies
01:16:32So we have Mary Jo and Chloe duking it out for that last final spot into the top 30
01:16:41So give it your all
01:16:44Who wants to go first?
01:16:46Oh, Lord
01:16:47I'll go
01:16:48I'll go
01:16:49Yeah, I'll go
01:16:51What are you going to sing, Chloe?
01:16:52I'm singing You Stole the Show by Santa Spira
01:16:54Okay
01:17:05You Stole the Show
01:17:08Got a sending ovation
01:17:13I lost control
01:17:16From the stage
01:17:19From your facing
01:17:21You don't say hello
01:17:26I can't wait
01:17:28I'm impatient
01:17:30You stole my show
01:17:34So I chase you
01:17:36To the pavement
01:17:38Rub me in your arms again
01:17:42The adrenaline
01:17:44Makes me shiver
01:17:47Show me that you're genuine
01:17:51That I'm safe again
01:17:54That you came here different
01:17:56No time to define
01:18:00But before we get closer
01:18:05I ask if you love me
01:18:10And you just
01:18:14Shrug your shoulders
01:18:18I'm so proud of you

01:19:18And I told you to be balanced
01:19:22And I told you to be kind
01:19:26And in the morning
01:19:28I'll be with you
01:19:29But it will be a different kind
