How you have to just -- 100% every single week absolutely you know I had I had a weird week last week I did and everyone else -- so on.

I'd -- they deserve to be in the bottom three.

But you know.

Because I chose bad romance that -- -- And I think that.

Turned off a lot of my voters just because have taken such a strong stance my faith a lot and we look confused.

That I had it was a fun song had a blast doing it is -- change of that song that I think that hurt me.

-- -- -- He's along for absolutely -- yeah I was getting to reunite with your friends and he's a top sick here the whole top ten.

-- what types of songs are you looking forward to performing on Tor for your hands.

I never got the chance to view and hard rock -- behind -- piano.

And that's that's what I love to do whenever whenever I played.

Yeah any of -- -- that an idol I would always go behind a piano and rocket out for them to listen to use they could.

Phil and mean the rest of that in the ground work on different instruments.

But yeah I'm hoping.

Until just to really get behind a piano -- -- out on tour.

And I'll let unique and different.

You know it is about.

Who challenged themselves the most and -- reaches that goal every week and just really thinks outside the box time.

Your take on -- son or.

The melody they choose.

You always hear from the judges melody is key you know when a stray too far but -- can you can also access.

That we.

CDs they have to make sure that they're always on their a game that they're always pushing themselves and was that a piece of advice or is there reason I don't think we can -- -- your career whether it was from the judges cleared yet.

Celebrity mentors -- -- thing what's one thing that you really learned from the experience.

-- -- -- -- you know -- there's a fine line between.

Say to yourself and straying too far could -- have to think outside the box every week.

And I think a lot of push -- -- last week but you know I found that line and I know where -- where I.

Stay now where -- my home is you know.

But I think as that.

As a contestant contestants continue to figure that out I.

It's -- telling me it better from here.

And tell us what he wants to -- next what type of music what type of John -- looking to get into you know my -- Elizabeth Christian rock music.

That I don't want my music to be confined necessarily to -- church.
