The Best American idol Performances of All Time

So this is it! Season 12 of American Idol has ended and the winner is... CANDICE GLOVER!!!

Honestly I didn't really care about the result lol. The top 3 are my favorites from the entire season so whoever takes the title is okay with me. Well, in the end I was actually a little bit more into Kree, but either way, Candice is awesome and she deserves it as much.

SOOOO, to celebrate the end of Season 12, I'm gonna make a top ten list of The Best American Idol Performances of All Time (according to me)!

1. Kelly Clarkson - Natural Woman

After 12 seasons, for me this performance is still unbeatable. Even though there were so many Idol contestants that tried to sing this song after her, no one compares. That whistle register is crrrrazy. Only the one and only Queen Kelly can do that.

2. David Cook - Billie Jean

This performance is craycray. He rearranged this song to fit his voice and it worked sooo well. His tone is perfect as always. A true artist, there.

3. Haley Reinhart - Benny and the Jets

Just like Steven Tyler said, "YOU SING SEXY". This performance was like a turning point for Haley in the competition. She succeeded to make me LOOVE her by this. Honestly, I was barely noticing her before Benny and the Jets. Lol.

4. Phillip Phillips - Volcano

This performance was breathtaking. The rasp in his voice, the guitar, the backup singer, the lyrics of this song. What can I say? It's just so perfect that it made me cry. Almost every performance of Phillip has a place in my heart, but Volcano? It is fucking special.

5. Adam Lambert - Whole Lotta Love

I HAD A HARD TIME CHOOSING MY FAVORITE ADAM PERFORMANCE CAUSE EVERY SINGLE ONE IS FUCKING BRILLIANT. Well, to me Adam is a rock god and his voice soars best when he sings classic rock songs. I know that everyone was obsessing over his Mad World performance (the only performance that Simon Cowell gave standing ovation to on Idol). But idk, I prefer Whole Lotta Love, Crying, Track of My Tears, A Change is Gonna Come, Feeling Good, etc... Mad World was just not my favorite.

6. Kris Allen - Heartless

Kris Allen (aka Adam Lambert's baby) sang the hell outa this song. Randy was right, this version is better than the original and for me personally, better than The Fray's.  I downloaded the studio version of this song and listen to it until now. I think this performance is the one that made him the winner of season 8.

7. Blake Lewis - You Give Love a Bad Name

Blake Lewis' beatbox never fails. And even though this song is a classic and Blake's voice is more current, he managed to work it out by putting his own spin to it. And it turned out super amazing!!! Blake is super awesome and I think he should have won season 7. Well, but Jordin was awesome too for her age.

8. Angie Miller - You Set Me Free

Angie was taking a big risk for singing an original song with piano in Hollywood Week. But guess what? It paid off. This song is awesome, and it sounds like it's written by a professional. Just like the judges, I'm blown away. And I'm so glad that it becomes Angie's first single because people need to know about this song.

9. Colton Dixon - Piano Man

First of all, LOVE the red piano. I'm so getting that for my future house. The voice of Colton when singing this may not be perfectly flawless, but there is just an emotion behind it that made it so beautiful. And I always love it when Colton plays piano. I think it's where he becomes comfortable the most and it shows.

10. Phillip Phillips - Home 

I still remember how it felt to watch this performance for the first time. Words cannot describe how proud I was. This song gave Phillip recognition he deserves. And, this song turned out to be the best-selling single by an Idol alumni and no wonder, cause that is just how it's supposed to be.

That's it! These people are just so talented and I love them with all my heart. I'm so grateful that I'm lucky enough to had the opportunity to watch Kelly, David Cook, Adam, and Haley live. I hope I'm gonna see Phillip and the rest soon! Hope yall enjoying my picks!
