00:12:27,196 --> 00:12:30,817
So, here's the situation.
You have...
182
00:12:31,384 --> 00:12:35,989
You have that star look,
that star sound
183
00:12:36,539 --> 00:12:41,261
and, more importantly,
that star strut.
184
00:12:41,261 --> 00:12:44,631
You were walking that walk,
singing that song.
185
00:12:44,631 --> 00:12:47,383
I just love
your stage presence.
186
00:12:47,383 --> 00:12:49,185

was so wonderful.

What a way
to kick off the show.
189
00:12:56,276 --> 00:12:59,228
Um, I mean, you kinda
put us right there
190
00:12:59,228 --> 00:13:04,467
in the mind frame
of being grateful
191
00:13:04,467 --> 00:13:06,803
and just the beautiful
things that come out
of your mouth.
192
00:13:08,004 --> 00:13:09,055

watching you come out here
and really command the room
201
00:13:30,259 --> 00:13:31,461

you're spinning around,

that you were getting
emotional singing that song.

What were you feeling
at the beginning of the day?

is such a singable,
beautiful song.
271

on the show.

make that your own.

I love what you did with it.

suit your voice

and you did it
really fantastically.

-Thank you, guys.
-[audience cheering]
280
00:17:38,608 --> 00:17:41,060
Yeah, uh, listen,
I love everything you do,
281
00:17:41,060 --> 00:17:44,163
and your voice
is very controlled
and very perfect
282
00:17:44,163 --> 00:17:47,850
but then, listen,
keep pushing too,
and dig more and more
283
00:17:47,850 --> 00:17:49,936
'cause we're getting
into the serious part
of the competition.
284
00:17:49,936 --> 00:17:54,874
I love the... I totally echo
what Carrie just said.
285
00:17:54,874 --> 00:17:58,694
Just dig, dig, dig.
And so glad to see you
in this spot.
286
00:17:58,694 --> 00:18:00,863
-Thank you, Luke
-Great... great job on that.
287

-Thank you so much, guys.
-Honestly...
288

Honestly, it's ditto,
ditto, ditto.
289
00:18:06,736 --> 00:18:09,805
I mean, there's a purity
about your voice,
290
00:18:09,805 --> 00:18:10,940
and a sincerity
about your voice
291
00:18:10,940 --> 00:18:13,259
that just comes right through,
first note.
292
00:18:13,793 --> 00:18:16,495
Just remember...
I am like Luke now.
293
00:18:16,495 --> 00:18:17,780
Remember, it's down to 14.
294
00:18:17,780 --> 00:18:19,832
-Give it to us. All right.
-Yes.

Good job, Findling.
Nice to see you this evening.
297
00:18:24,971 --> 00:18:27,673
And she did, she sang that
a couple of times, I think,
in her season,
298
00:18:27,673 --> 00:18:29,792
-Carrie Underwood.
-Yes.
299
00:18:29,792 --> 00:18:32,194
-Did you watch
those performances?
-Yes. Definitely inspired me.
300
00:18:32,194 --> 00:18:35,031
She did a great job,
and to be able to sing it
on this stage
301
00:18:35,031 --> 00:18:37,566
-in front of her
is very special.
-You did it head-on.
302
00:18:37,566 --> 00:18:38,985
It was symbolic,
that song, right?
303
00:18:38,985 --> 00:18:40,653
Yeah, it's just
a beautiful song.
304
00:18:40,653 --> 00:18:42,605
I love the line,
"God blessed the broken road
305
00:18:42,605 --> 00:18:45,024
that led me straight...
[stutters] ...to you."
306
00:18:45,024 --> 00:18:47,793
And I feel like that's a...
a lyric in the song
that everyone can... can feel,
307
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:50,630
and God leads us
to the right people in life.
308
00:18:50,630 --> 00:18:51,814
Whether that's friends
or family,
309
00:18:51,814 --> 00:18:55,534
and I just love that message
that the song brings. Yeah.

-Those are your fans.

You can go ahead
and look at your fans
back there.
339
00:20:20,236 --> 00:20:23,639
Would you like to, uh, give us
a blessing or say some words?
340

-Yes.
-Okay, go ahead.
341
00:20:24,990 --> 00:20:30,045
Well, in order for me
to give a blessing,
I do have to say a prayer.
342
00:20:30,045 --> 00:20:33,916
But first, I cannot believe
that I'm next
to the Mr. Richie.

00:29:26,231 --> 00:29:27,232
[Lionel] Now...
510
00:29:28,650 --> 00:29:30,852
Now, let me tell you
what you've just done.
511
00:29:30,852 --> 00:29:35,440
You see, automatically,
I never thought I would have
to share "All Night Long."
512
00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,342
Now people stop me
on the street and go,
513
00:29:37,342 --> 00:29:39,144
"I saw your man
with 'All Night Long.'"
514
00:29:39,144 --> 00:29:40,345
[laughter]
515
00:29:40,345 --> 00:29:42,814
[Lionel] You see,
now you are
Mr. All Night Long.
516
00:29:42,814 --> 00:29:48,170
Well, what I love is, you have
the ability to tell a story
and then move the crowd.
517
00:29:48,170 --> 00:29:49,388
[audience cheer]
518
00:29:49,388 --> 00:29:52,574
And what you did there
was a great,
great performance.
519
00:29:52,574 --> 00:29:54,076
Thank you, sir. Thank you.
520
00:29:56,361 --> 00:29:59,698
I love that...
I feel like you're so serious,
521
00:29:59,698 --> 00:30:03,468
like, all the time,
and then kind of as soon
as the music gets going,
522
00:30:03,468 --> 00:30:05,003
you're, like,
"Okay, here's fun Daniel."
523
00:30:05,003 --> 00:30:08,940
And then, the music
stops again and you're, like,
very serious again.
524
00:30:08,940 --> 00:30:13,578
But I do feel like
we're watching you
kind of just get into, um,
525
00:30:13,578 --> 00:30:15,564
a more comfortable fun space.
526
00:30:15,564 --> 00:30:19,051
Like, I loved that you picked
kind of a more up-tempo,
groovy song.
527
00:30:19,051 --> 00:30:23,472
Um, 'cause this would be
the chance for a lot of people
to do big, slow songs,
528
00:30:23,472 --> 00:30:24,556
and you went
a different direction.
529
00:30:24,556 --> 00:30:26,625
That's gonna differentiate you
a little bit.
530
00:30:26,625 --> 00:30:28,343
-[Luke] Very good.
-Thank you. Thank you.
531
00:30:28,343 --> 00:30:30,412
[cheers and applause]
532
00:30:30,412 --> 00:30:32,347
[Luke] Yeah.
533
00:30:32,347 --> 00:30:35,517
Have fun with--
Have fun with all of this.
534
00:30:35,517 --> 00:30:38,270
I mean, grow, grow, grow
and expand and try new things.
535
00:30:38,270 --> 00:30:39,521
What you did
with "All Night Long,"
536
00:30:39,521 --> 00:30:41,740
'cause we hadn't seen you
do that yet.
537
00:30:41,740 --> 00:30:44,776
And then, like I said,
this got you moving.
You were, uh...
538
00:30:44,776 --> 00:30:47,579
You were out of here with us,
you walked by,
539
00:30:47,579 --> 00:30:49,448
I think I kissed you
on the cheek on the way back.
540
00:30:49,448 --> 00:30:51,800
-So, you got me in the spirit.
-[Lionel laughs]
541
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,320
But, uh, just keep growing,
keep growing.
542
00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:56,154
[Daniel] Thank you, thank you.
543
00:30:56,154 --> 00:30:58,357
[cheers and applause]
544
00:30:58,357 --> 00:30:59,741
[Ryan] Great dancing.
545
00:30:59,741 --> 00:31:03,562
It was like a high-five
with a knee up kind of thing
you did right there.
546
00:31:03,562 --> 00:31:04,996
Yeah, it was a nice move.
Flexibility at its best.
547
00:31:04,996 --> 00:31:08,850
So, are you a serious guy,
a fun guy?
What kind of guy are you?
548
00:31:08,850 --> 00:31:12,487
Well, I'm a school teacher,
so I have to be serious
in front of the kids.
549
00:31:12,487 --> 00:31:13,839
But what's the real you?
Cut up a little bit.
550
00:31:13,839 --> 00:31:17,509
Well, to be honest,
I really don't have any sense,
for real.
551
00:31:17,509 --> 00:31:18,810
[laughter]
552
00:31:18,810 --> 00:31:22,497
No, I can have a lot of fun,
so yes,
I've opened up a lot more.
553
00:31:22,497 --> 00:31:24,866
-[Luke] There you go.
There you go.
-Given the opportunity.

you open your mouth to sing.
567

[Philmon] I have a voice,
I want it to be heard.

you were born to sing.

it's number one
in everybody's category.

everybody's carving out
their own lane.

And that
was your lane, clearly.

to do on that

is build on it.

this 14 is a rough
group here, babes.
923
00:54:27,181 --> 00:54:32,019
So what I want you
to understand is,
carve out your part
924
00:54:32,019 --> 00:54:35,806
that's memorable
to the listeners out there.

Thank you, Lionel.
Thank you.

on this one.

you are on your way

to really establishing
your own sound.
929
00:54:45,149 --> 00:54:50,103
You have a really
great way of taking
somebody else's song.

I mean, we first heard you
singing your own stuff.
931

But now we're kind of
hearing you sing some covers,
932
00:54:55,526 --> 00:54:58,378
but you're really good
at taking those songs
and putting yourself in them.

you have
1171
01:09:02,639 --> 01:09:05,541
is your uniqueness
to that voice
1172
01:09:05,541 --> 01:09:07,076
is just unbelievable.
1173
01:09:07,076 --> 01:09:09,112
-I love your voice.
-Thank you so much. Thank you.
1174
01:09:09,112 --> 01:09:12,131
[Underwood] Yeah, Brooks,
you just keep us guessing.
1175
01:09:12,131 --> 01:09:15,818
You know what I mean.
And I feel like we are
always very excited
1176
01:09:15,818 --> 01:09:17,920
and curious to see
what you're gonna do.
1177
01:09:17,920 --> 01:09:21,858
Even when we see the song,
but it's like, what's
he gonna do with it.
1178
01:09:21,858 --> 01:09:25,044
You have... You put your stamp
on everything that you do.
1179
01:09:25,044 --> 01:09:27,764
And even the notes
that you pick,
the phrasing that you do,
1180
01:09:27,764 --> 01:09:30,917
-like it's authentically
Brooks.
-Thank you so much.
1181
01:09:30,917 --> 01:09:32,551
[Seacrest] Great, man, great.
1182
01:09:33,586 --> 01:09:35,738
Fantastic to watch you
perform, buddy.
1183
01:09:35,738 --> 01:09:36,823
You haven't done
a lot of this, have you?
1184
01:09:36,823 --> 01:09:38,908
-No, I have not.
-No.
1185
01:09:38,908 --> 01:09:40,760
He wanted to do some
dance moves tonight
1186
01:09:40,760 --> 01:09:43,629
but I think maybe next week,
put some choreo in there.
1187
01:09:43,629 --> 01:09:45,665
What's it feel like
to be singing

It's time to vote for Brooks
'cause he's great.

01:10:00,296 --> 01:10:03,566
If you want to see him
make it through

01:10:03,566 --> 01:10:05,885
you gotta vote online,

but just little bitty
snippets of them.
1335
01:19:05,624 --> 01:19:09,178
Well, that song was like you
from top to bottom,
1336
01:19:09,178 --> 01:19:10,562
and that's what
we want from you.
1337
01:19:10,562 --> 01:19:14,083
And that's the vision we saw,
and great song choice
and what a delivery.
1338
01:19:14,083 --> 01:19:16,151
[Tungseth] Thank you so much.
1339
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:22,391
[Richie] It's a very dear
friend of mine
who had this wonderful song,
1340
01:19:22,391 --> 01:19:25,461
has this wonderful song,
Jesus, Take the Wheel.
1341
01:19:25,461 --> 01:19:28,163
Well, let me just
say this to you,
1342
01:19:28,163 --> 01:19:29,581
that right now
I can only appeal.
1343
01:19:29,581 --> 01:19:32,451
America, I can't
make up my mind.
1344
01:19:32,451 --> 01:19:35,321
America, take the wheel
and vote.
1345
01:19:35,321 --> 01:19:37,840
Vote for these kids.
They are so talented.
1346
01:19:39,158 --> 01:19:40,576
They are amazing.
1347
01:19:40,576 --> 01:19:41,894
-[audience cheers]
-You are amazing,
1348
01:19:42,428 --> 01:19:43,862
America, take the wheel,
1349
01:19:46,215 --> 01:19:48,517
-Chris, everyone.
-[audience applauds]
1350
01:19:48,517 --> 01:19:51,287
You know,
the impact of performing
in front of people
1351
01:19:51,287 --> 01:19:52,254
and getting their reaction,
1352
01:19:52,254 --> 01:19:53,589
people are
reaching out to you,
1353
01:19:53,589 --> 01:19:55,240
aren't they, on social media?
1354
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:56,608
Yeah, it's unbelievable.
1355
01:19:56,608 --> 01:19:59,845
And even just today,
going through my phone,
1356
01:19:59,845 --> 01:20:03,615
and friends and family
across the world
are shooting me texts
1357
01:20:03,615 --> 01:20:05,734
and sending me
Bible verses and love.
1358
01:20:05,734 --> 01:20:08,537
I just feel so blessed,
and the Holy Spirit
was here tonight.
1359
01:20:08,537 --> 01:20:09,905
Look at my friends over there.
1360
01:20:11,156 --> 01:20:12,541
This is crazy.
1361
01:20:12,541 --> 01:20:14,543
Not only that, I hear you
ordered food the other night
1362
01:20:14,543 --> 01:20:16,912
and the delivery driver
recognized you.
1363
01:20:16,912 --> 01:20:21,266
Yeah, that was...
I opened the door,
and I'm in my pajamas,
1364
01:20:21,266 --> 01:20:22,451
and she's like,
"I know who you are."
1365
01:20:22,451 --> 01:20:24,403
I was like, "Who am I?"
1366
01:20:24,403 --> 01:20:25,521
I was like,
"I don't know who..."
1367
01:20:25,521 --> 01:20:28,440
Let's hope it's from
American Idol,
right?
1368
01:20:28,440 --> 01:20:29,692
-Yeah?
-God only knows. [chuckles]
1369
01:20:29,692 --> 01:20:32,344
America, you want
to vote for him?
1370
01:20:32,344 --> 01:20:34,880
Chris right here, online,
via the app,
1371

and the newest ways
on the
American Idol

1372
01:20:37,716 --> 01:20:40,502
on Facebook, Instagram
and TikTok.
1373
01:20:40,502 --> 01:20:44,173
Voting closes in the final
commercial breaks,
1374
01:20:44,173 --> 01:20:45,507
so keep on voting, everyone.
1375
01:20:45,507 --> 01:20:48,344
One more time
for Chris Tungseth.
1376
01:20:48,344 --> 01:20:51,113
-Thank you.
-Thank you so much, Ryan.
1377
01:20:51,113 --> 01:20:52,414
You're good, man.
1378

[audience cheering]
1379
01:20:57,953 --> 01:21:01,607
Well, when we come back,
she left this studio
breathless last year,
1380
01:21:01,607 --> 01:21:03,659
and I bet it happens again.
1381
01:21:03,659 --> 01:21:08,831
Carrie takes the stage
with last season's
platinum ticket winners
1382
01:21:08,831 --> 01:21:12,868
for a not-to-miss performance
right after this.
We'll be right back.

-Back with you
on
American Idol.
1437
01:26:16,054 --> 01:26:18,857
It has been
an incredible night
on the stage.
1438
01:26:18,857 --> 01:26:19,941
The judges
and the whole studio
1439
01:26:19,941 --> 01:26:22,911
have been on their feet
all night long
1440
01:26:22,911 --> 01:26:25,330
enjoying this, Songs of Faith.
1441
01:26:26,798 --> 01:26:29,534
Tom, dim the lights.
1442
01:26:29,534 --> 01:26:31,169
And here we go.
1443
01:26:31,169 --> 01:26:35,607
Lionel, just quickly,
how in your view
is this class shaping up?
1444
01:26:35,607 --> 01:26:37,109
So let me tell you something.
1445
01:26:37,109 --> 01:26:40,245
Out of all the classes,
this is probably
the most diverse.
1446
01:26:40,245 --> 01:26:46,001
When I say that, I mean
from every imaginable
configuration of genre.
1447
01:26:46,001 --> 01:26:48,854
You all have managed
to sparkle us again
1448
01:26:48,854 --> 01:26:51,606
to the point where
we don't know
where you're coming from.
1449
01:26:51,606 --> 01:26:54,726
All Martians
are in this class.
1450
01:26:54,726 --> 01:26:56,895
All Martians, amazing class.
1451
01:26:56,895 --> 01:26:58,864
[Seacrest] And, Carrie,
you've done this before.
1452
01:26:58,864 --> 01:27:03,051
How does the competition shift
once we go live on the stage?
1453
01:27:03,051 --> 01:27:05,854
I mean, there's definitely...
there's pressure throughout,
1454
01:27:05,854 --> 01:27:07,989
but it's just a different
kind of pressure.
1455
01:27:07,989 --> 01:27:11,977
You are live,
but then it also gives
people the chance
1456
01:27:11,977 --> 01:27:14,646
to rise to the occasion
and show us what they got.
1457
01:27:14,646 --> 01:27:16,398
And I definitely
felt that tonight.
1458
01:27:16,998 --> 01:27:18,500
[Seacrest] Luke,
how do you choose?
1459
01:27:19,601 --> 01:27:20,819
I don't know
how America chooses.
1460
01:27:20,819 --> 01:27:23,155
You got to trust your gut
as a voter at home.
1461
01:27:23,155 --> 01:27:28,894
And just pick the artists
that are on stage
1462
01:27:28,894 --> 01:27:32,013
that just make you smile,
make you laugh, make you cry.
1463
01:27:32,013 --> 01:27:36,118
And I don't know
how America
is going to do it, so...
1464
01:27:36,118 --> 01:27:38,353
Well, we have had five ways
to vote tonight.
1465
01:27:38,353 --> 01:27:43,542
Tens of millions of votes
coming in at a rate
we have never seen before.
1466
01:27:43,542 --> 01:27:45,160
Truly unprecedented.
1467
01:27:45,160 --> 01:27:48,814
And to ensure
complete accuracy
with the numbers,
1468
01:27:48,814 --> 01:27:51,149
I was literally just told
1469
01:27:51,149 --> 01:27:54,519
we are not going to
announce eliminations tonight.
1470
01:27:54,519 --> 01:27:55,537
What?
1471
01:27:57,122 --> 01:27:59,107
[Seacrest]
This is the first time
it's ever happened.
1472
01:27:59,107 --> 01:28:00,625
Believe me,
I've been here every night.
1473
01:28:02,227 --> 01:28:04,880
Want to make sure we get
every vote counted
and every vote right.
1474
01:28:04,880 --> 01:28:07,849
We'll carry forward
those votes,
get everything verified.
1475
01:28:07,849 --> 01:28:09,301
So, at the top of
next week's show,
1476
01:28:09,301 --> 01:28:15,540
your results will be revealed
live on this stage.

That's next Monday,
8/7 Central live right here.
