On outside of choices in this that but you that you sticking season you know what you know is right yeah I really am.

On the especially the last two songs like I find those are definitely the best choices in the -- at the time and I believe in them so strongly and enticing them with my heart and with conviction and and that's what makes a -- performance you know really owning a song.

And no matter what I do like people are gonna respect and people aren't and I'm I'm aware of that argument that.

Travel with and for me it was I was like now.

Yeah I mean and -- -- -- harder on me probably because they knew that I could go further.

Within and I think their heart army because they believed in it but.

It was it was a -- and maybe it was a minus -- you like being owner he outclassed for being wise and experienced back.

You know -- negative because in a lot of the viewers are younger and maybe they wouldn't we feel like they can connect with me as well so.

Have announced and now in that last on the use on -- a little bit with Steven Tyler there's like we need you -- in there ready to do play Manhattan how far enough that I'm -- memory yeah as amazing I didn't plan anything I just.

Decided you know have -- like take up the stage you know I wanted to.

Because I know every showing us he was only going to be -- -- -- all my fans but it's only going to be fans love this show so they know we aren't going to be excited and it's just going to be great to see that.

You know -- in front of us and performing whole -- Yes Paul I think that's and and they will probably carry you up a little bit and -- that's it you let a little bit with some of your intestines is there any line in the top ten that you didn't that you would hope to sing let.

-- I was losing with Josh hello I'm Josh to death I really wanna do a song where Eric -- probably -- like wrap on it because she's fast and she can wrap.

And I really would like to do something with with Colleen.

Little nugget iron becomes so I don't know that anyone really I really love all top ten and I -- great.

Yes have a look at how are you gonna let me everybody yes and that I saw that you're going to -- -- song writing any utilize your time on that whereabouts decent song -- as irony.

Definitely entering my guitar and just you know keep bring my journal on just right -- it's -- just keep track of my feelings and try to get something down I wanna force in England definitely like always be thinking about it you know is it possible you'll -- the first season eleven grad with an album release party I don't know that there's a real race to the first album led a monetary -- -- I guess is possible you know how good does the president is on the others have yes.

And it what type of music because he started out the show it was -- -- reasonably easy -- and you can discover your inner.

Rock star earlier on I don't IE in back in Charleston I was in so many different bands and I covered jazz R&B soul funk hip hop.

And then even like a little bit about like -- kind of sound -- -- not as much.

But my name band has been -- for five years we get our rocket also like throwing stones.

You know -- -- that.

So I it was definitely like no I know I love that John have a being on the show and just pulling -- out more that that's what people are most crazy about me doing.

It felt the most national some legally here album -- -- could be a mix of all that so when I -- yes hard to sum it up a good program I don't ahead.

When AI when I get out mama I'm going to definitely -- -- that rock direction back on the influence of funk jazz and so -- and blues and any collaborations -- wishlists collaborations.

Gas some I would -- you collaborate with Brian may from queens I was gonna keep -- out there have.

You know he I asked them you think would you give me call.

I currently you'll look out for an and then -- it lets you guys I asked all of the folks to come off the show idol finale predictions.

We make -- -- anything is going to be.

It hit a winner in just in the final -- I and it's really hard to say I really have no clue because every time I think I know something -- changes so.

I don't have a prediction I just hope that the person who does understands the responsibility of the job and they just.

Work hard at remembering that you know that would they're here Linspire and soon lead people on -- kids look up to.

So I just want that whoever -- Angel and and I can't route through their -- himself.
