Exert:

Announcing that about 80 members of his family were present, the beat-boxer and singer from Bothwell, Wash., awed the audience with his complex vocal-percussion solo. He then launched into a personalized version of The Zombies' "Time of the Seasons," which visibly hooked the teenage-accompanying baby boomers on his unique style as they danced and swayed with the youngest fans present.

Exert:

Each idol performed at least one solo, including Haley's "When God Fearin' Women Get the Blues" and Sanjaya's "The Way You Make Me Feel," complete with moon-walking and twirling. But the performances that really got the audience on their feet were Blake's famous beat-boxing rendition of "Shot Through the Heart," LaKisha's high-note-hitting "I Will Always Love You," Jordin's "Broken Wing" and Melinda's "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman," which she dedicated to the crowd.

Exert:

Each "Idol" performed at least one solo, including Richardson's "This Love" by Maroon 5, which he said is one of his musical inspirations. But the performances that really got the audience on its feet were Lewis' famous beat-boxing rendition of "You Give Love a Bad Name," Jones' big-note-hitting "I Will Always Love You," Sparks' "Broken Wing" and Doolittle's "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman," which she dedicated to the crowd.
