Tonight the Top 10 guys performed on Fox’s American Idol Season 12.
The boys all around gave solid performances.
Burnell Taylor gave a stunningly spectacular performance as he sang “I’m Here” from the Color Purple, while Lazaro Arbos gave an impressive performance of Nina Simone’s “Feeling Good.”
Oh, and let’s not forget about Devin Velez, who beautifully sang “It’s Impossible,” interchanging between English and Spanish so impeccably.
Nevertheless, there was one performance that was simply in another league compared to all the rest.
The best performance goes to Curtis Finch Jr., who sang R. Kelly’s “I Believe I Can Fly.”
His voice is absolutely phenomenal and so completely uplifting.
This dude has got a God-given talent. He not only has an insanely soulful voice, but he so masterfully succeeds in telling the story within the song.
The power within his voice as he so seamlessly takes his time to sing each and every note with profound depth and emotion is simply mind-blowing.
All the judges gave Finch a standing ovation.
Keith Urban declared: “I believe YOU can fly. You ooze everything good, light, Godly, whole, and positive. You have so much hope in you. Thank you very much for that performance.”
Nicki Minaj proclaimed: “What you do is you make people feel good, powerful, and make them believe that they can fly and that is given to you by a higher power. You have a calling on your life, to bless people and to do so much good.”
