So, in honor of the new season of American Idol (and quite possibly, the last) I thought I would list my favorite performances from all eight seasons.
This was hard. I’ve enjoyed a lot of contestants over the years. American Idol is a great show and I look forward to moments that will go down in history. When it comes to my Top 10, each of these performances has changed the way I hear the song. I don’t hear the original anymore, I hear these versions in my head instead.
My personal Top 10 favorite American Idol performances:
*Honorable mentions: David Cook – Billy Jean and Matt Giraud – Who’s Lovin You
10.Ruben Studdard – Superstar

One of the oldest songs that I’ve written that is going to be included on my upcoming EP is “Beauty.” I wrote this song during my freshman year in college. This time of my life was filled with answers to my questions, doubts and insecurities that had built up over the years. I cried out to God…What makes me beautiful to someone? Will any man ever see me for who I truly am and still call me beautiful? If need be, am I content being single – just me and the Lord – for the rest of my life?…God abounded with answers to these questions. And my heart poured out into this song. My favorite line (and one that I still repeat to myself time and time again) is, “The time will come when beauty fades, and the only thing that matters is the heart that remains.” I am so glad the Lord has brought me to the point in my life, where I find my beauty first and foremost in Him. But, God knows it hasn’t always been this way.
