Not ironically, this is also a list of my top 3 as we head into the live episodes where 24 contestants (or maybe there’s a wild card??) will sing for our votes. My top favorite is Jack Blocker, who famously got the golden ticket thanks to the crew of idol (not the judges, except for Luke). I loved his performance of “Your Cheatin’ Heart.”
My next favorite with her best performance so far is Jennifer Jeffries with an original song called “Change My Ways.”
Rounding out my top 3 is Mckenna Breinholt singing “When We Were Young.” Her low note is startling in the best way.
Honorable Mention (and maybe a wild card, I hope) is Ziggy pouring his heart out with “All I Want.” A sweet soul, apparently.
Who are your favorites? I’m sure I’ll have to update this list once tonight’s episode airs, the first that includes us, the audience. Come on Jack, Jennifer, and Mckenna… knock it out of the park!
