00:00:00They've been raising the bar on this stage week after week.
00:00:04They've been called divine and have left the judges and the nation speechless.
00:00:09They are your top ten.
00:00:11And this is American Idol.
00:00:30Thank you all very much.
00:00:31Welcome to the show, everyone.
00:00:34Your top ten are gearing up for another epic night of music.
00:00:37But first, give a warm welcome to your judges.
00:00:40Here they come.
00:00:40Lupa, Lupa, Lupa, Lupa, Lupa, Lupa.
00:01:10Lupa, Lupa, Lupa, Lupa.
00:01:40Top ten is officially open.
00:01:42Check out their info.
00:01:43The vote is live, which means real-time results are coming at the end of the show when two people will be going home.
00:01:49Don't let it be your favorites.
00:01:51Start voting right now.
00:01:53Idol winner Abby Carter is in the house tonight.
00:01:56With the performance of her song, Byrne.
00:01:59This week's mentor is country music royalty, Miranda Lambert.
00:02:07Her theme is celebrating some of the most iconic women in music who've inspired Miranda throughout her career.
00:02:14She's also taking the stage with her mega-hit, Kerosene.
00:02:17That is coming up later.
00:02:19But first, we shall meet up Miranda and her biggest fan, John Foster.
00:02:24Take a look.
00:02:28Hello.
00:02:28Miss Lambert, it's a pleasure to meet you.
00:02:30Take the hat off and everything.
00:02:31I love that.
00:02:32I love Miranda Lambert.
00:02:34If I want to go from one to ten, I'd probably say like 15.
00:02:36How are you?
00:02:37I'm going to be honest, I'm a little nervous right now.
00:02:39Are you?
00:02:39You were my first crush.
00:02:40Was I?
00:02:41Yeah.
00:02:42Good taste.
00:02:43I'm just kidding.
00:02:44John walked in with his little cowboy hat, his western shirt, his guitar, and then told me I was his first crush.
00:02:50So I was like, okay, I love you.
00:02:52Do you like my shirt?
00:02:53I love your shirt.
00:02:54I bought this shirt just for you.
00:02:55Well, I love it.
00:02:56What are you singing today?
00:02:57I'm singing Something to Talk About by Bonnie Rae.
00:02:59Awesome.
00:03:00Let's give them something to talk about.
00:03:03When I started singing for Miranda, I actually really had a hard time making eye contact with her because, you know, she's my first daughter's crush and I'm singing in front of her and I was just too nervous.
00:03:11I just couldn't look her in the eyes.
00:03:12I think don't be afraid to play it first when it's simple and then swing that around and interact with the crowd.
00:03:19Let's give them something to talk about.
00:03:21I could even walk around a little bit later.
00:03:22Yeah, because isn't it like around?
00:03:24Yeah, yeah, there's like a...
00:03:24I think that's the time to...
00:03:26Taking the mic and sort of working the stage was the performance part of it that we needed to work on with John.
00:03:31It is also my go-to karaoke song.
00:03:33Really?
00:03:33Yes, because I'm very familiar with it.
00:03:36Let's give them something to talk about.
00:03:39How about love?
00:03:42I did not expect to sing with Miranda Labor today, but it happened.
00:03:47I think Bonnie Raitt was perfect because it shows some personality and some sass and I think that he can flirt with the crowd and use that cute little spirit he has.
00:03:55People are talking, talking about people.
00:04:09I hear them whisper, you won't believe it.
00:04:14Because they think we're lovers kept undercover.
00:04:18I just ignore it.
00:04:20But they keep saying we laugh just a little too loud.
00:04:27We stand just a little too close.
00:04:31And we stare just a little too long.
00:04:36And we stare just a little too close.
00:04:38And we stare just a little too close.
00:04:39And we stare just a little too close.
00:04:41And we stare just a little too close.
00:04:42And don't they hurry?
00:04:43Oh, darling.
00:04:43Let's give them something to talk about.
00:04:45Love?
00:04:46So good to talk.
00:04:47Let's give them something to talk about.
00:04:50So good to talk.
00:04:51Let's give them something to talk about.
00:04:54How about love?
00:04:56I feel so loose
00:05:03I never noticed
00:05:05You'd act so nervous
00:05:07Could you be falling?
00:05:09I'm thinking about you every day
00:05:13And I'm dreaming about you every night
00:05:17And I'm hoping that you'd feel the same way
00:05:23Now that we know, let's really show it, darling
00:05:29Let's give them something to talk about
00:05:32A little mystery to figure out
00:05:36Let's give them something to talk about
00:05:41How about love?
00:05:46All right, here we go
00:05:47Let's give them something to talk about, baby
00:05:50A little mystery
00:05:53I think we're gonna figure out
00:05:55Let's give them something to talk about
00:05:59How about love?
00:06:03Let's give them something to talk about
00:06:07A little something to talk about, baby

00:09:35Shining a spotlight now on Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie
00:09:39The two powerhouse women of Fleetwood Mac
00:09:41It's Tulsa's own Colby Jordan
00:09:43Let's go
00:09:44The mentor this week is Miranda Lambert
00:09:50You look so cute
00:09:53Thank you, you look so cute
00:09:55You a Tulsa girl?
00:09:56Tulsa girl
00:09:57I got two tattoos in Tulsa
00:09:58Did you?
00:09:59I don't know why
00:10:00Okay, well what are you singing for this female empowerment week?
00:10:04I am singing The Chain by Fleetwood Mac
00:10:07I love that song
00:10:09I absolutely chose this song to shock people
00:10:12I think it would be like duh if I picked Aretha
00:10:15Or if I picked another Patty song
00:10:17Listen to the wind blow
00:10:20I've never sung anything like this before
00:10:23When I'm singing this song I will be thinking of all the no's I've received
00:10:30All the rejection
00:10:32Run in the shadows
00:10:34Colby is a ray of sunshine
00:10:36And the voice, I mean it's incredible
00:10:39Loved it!
00:10:40Yeah, okay, okay

00:10:55Keep some diamonds in your back pocket
00:10:57Cause you're gonna need them later
00:10:58Mm-hmm
00:10:59She can do it all
00:11:00And it's effortless
00:11:01So I think for her
00:11:02Her biggest challenge is gonna be holding back
00:11:05It doesn't all have to be powerful
00:11:07It's sort of like holding back a racehorse with her
00:11:09That was my only note
00:11:10Thank you
00:11:11Got this girl
00:11:12I hope I have a head on

00:15:41And we had fun watching
00:15:43You've got amazing confidence. You feel it building each week
00:15:45I do. I think what helped me this week was I was able to tribute Tulsa, Oklahoma

00:15:58My aunt my uncle my sisters my brother. I got some other family. It's awesome

00:16:21There's a reason this next female icon adele has won a golden globe an emmy oscar and 16 grammys now
00:16:36She's getting the josh king at treatment. Take a look
00:16:41Our mentor for this week is the Miranda Lambert
00:16:45So what is your song choice roll in the deep by Adele amazing the background where I come from is blues and
00:16:53This one's not quite a blue song, but it's heavily inspired by and rooted in the blues
00:17:01I really want to tap into that history of mine
00:17:06You're starting in my heart
00:17:09Josh is just his own quirky kid my first impression was like he's cute and he's kind of all over the place
00:17:17He was starting on piano and then he was grabbing the mic and running out to do a harmonica solo
00:17:23My mom says I put ten things in a two-thing space. Yeah quick pull it back a click
00:17:28There's a fire
00:17:31Miranda has definitely helped me hone in on what I want to do with this performance
00:17:35It's okay to change up the arrangement from the original and like you say you love the blues like I feel like go bluesy
00:17:42Rolling in the deep is one of the songs. I think it's about like, you know a failed relationship
00:17:45Which I've never experienced, but oh, just get ready, honey
00:17:57I think we gotta wait. I think we got a pause can't help feeling because you
00:18:05Josh has just got his own thing going
00:18:07There's a fire starting in my heart
00:18:24Reaching a fever pitchers, bringing me out of the dark
00:18:29Finally, I can see you crystal clear
00:18:34Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship, babe
00:18:39See how I leave with every piece of you
00:18:44Don't underestimate the things that I will do
00:18:48There's a fire starting in my heart
00:18:53Reaching a fever pitchers, bringing me out of the dark
00:18:58The scars of your love.
00:19:00The scars of your love remind me of us
00:19:04They keep me thinkin' that we almost set it all
00:19:08The scars of your love, they leave me bad
00:19:12Because I can't help feel it
00:19:15You had my heart inside of your head
00:19:31And you played it to the beat
00:19:45Don't think you're mean, the depths of your despair
00:20:00They can't hold down this matter who won't be shared
00:20:04We could've had it all ruined in the deep
00:20:14You had my heart inside of your head
00:20:19And you played it to the beat
00:20:24Oh, you played it, you played it, you played it
00:20:29Could've had it all
00:20:44Shake it out, shake it out
00:20:52All right, Josh
00:20:57Shaking it out
00:20:58Josh
00:20:59Josh

00:21:05Just chill out
00:21:05Chill out
00:21:07Listen, let me tell you something
00:21:09I have never seen anyone go for the arsenal
00:21:12You start with the piano
00:21:14And I said, oh, maybe Adele
00:21:16She might be able to play the piano
00:21:18And then you grab the harmonica
00:21:20And I said, Adele can't play the harmonica
00:21:22And then you did one thing that I loved the most
00:21:25You ran around the circle
00:21:28And you gathered
00:21:30You found that audience
00:21:33And you brought them to you
00:21:34Congratulations, babe
00:21:35That was a great, great shot
00:21:37See what they say
00:21:37Rob the arsenal like Bonnie and Clyde
00:21:40So I can tell tonight
00:21:44Everyone is singing for their lives
00:21:45And I feel like, I'm like

00:22:01Well, I loved
00:22:05I loved seeing you fighting
00:22:08And seeing you challenging yourself
00:22:10I mean, we knew you a few months ago
00:22:13As kind of a quiet guy behind the piano
00:22:16And now you are truly like
00:22:19Leaving it all out there
00:22:20Like I, the tiger
00:22:21Like
00:22:22And like I said
00:22:27You sang like you didn't care
00:22:30If you lost your voice tonight
00:22:31You gave it your all
00:22:32And it was really inspiring
00:22:34To see you grow so much
00:22:35Thank you
00:22:36That was the move
00:22:46That was the move
00:22:47The athletic ability of Josh King
00:22:50The piano
00:22:51The dramatic move
00:22:52The harmonica
00:22:53The bag of tricks
00:22:55What were you trying to do
00:22:57With that performance?
00:22:58What did you want to do?
00:22:59What did you want to accomplish tonight?
00:23:01Well, you know
00:23:01I have no idea
00:23:04But you were digging deep at the end
00:23:07Oh yeah
00:23:08Right?
00:23:08You can hear that
00:23:09And feel that
00:23:09The song itself
00:23:12Is rooted in blues
00:23:13Yeah
00:23:14So you got to pull out that blues
00:23:15Well, get your live votes in
00:23:19For this guy
00:23:19Josh, right now
00:23:20Two people will be leaving
00:23:21At the end of the show
00:23:22So if you don't want them to go
00:23:24Then you got to vote
00:23:25Use all the methods
00:23:27That are at your fingertips
00:23:28Once again, Josh King
00:23:29Good job
00:23:29You're looking at the sweat
00:23:30They're warm
00:23:32And then another tour
00:23:34I know
00:23:34I realize that stage is very slippery on the hook
00:23:42After the break
00:23:44Another huge Adele moment
00:23:46Coming at you from Brianna Nix
00:23:47But not before Miranda Lambert
00:23:51Hits the idol stage for the very first time
00:23:54It's next
00:23:54We'll be right back
00:23:55Here in Hollywood
00:23:55And welcome back
00:24:06To American Idol
00:24:07We are live
00:24:07It's time to welcome to our stage
00:24:10An artist who continues to pave the way
00:24:12For women in the music industry
00:24:13She's a multi-platinum
00:24:15Grammy-winning force of nature
00:24:17And the nicest outlaw on the block
00:24:19Celebrating the 20th anniversary
00:24:21Of the song
00:24:22That started it all for her
00:24:24With kerosene
00:24:25Give it up
00:24:26For Miranda Lambert
00:24:27Yeah
00:24:28Come on y'all
00:24:36How you doing tonight?
00:24:36I'm waiting on the sun just said
00:24:49Yesterday ain't good for you
00:24:51I started smoking cigarettes
00:24:57There's nothing else to do, I guess
00:24:59Just roads ain't made for walkers
00:25:05Then tires ain't made for stopping
00:25:06I'm giving up on love
00:25:12Cause love's giving up on me
00:25:14I gave it everything
00:25:19I had everything
00:25:20I got was bad
00:25:22Life ain't hard
00:25:26But it's too long
00:25:27Living like some conscious song
00:25:29Trade truth and for a lie
00:25:35She really ain't a crime
00:25:37I'm going on
00:25:38I'm giving up on love
00:25:42Cause love's giving up on me
00:25:44Last time you make out of
00:25:46How y'all do it
00:25:47Here we go
00:25:48Hey
00:25:52Forget your hot society
00:26:08I'm soaking it in kerosene
00:26:11I light them up
00:26:15And I watch them burn
00:26:16Teach them what they need to learn
00:26:18Dirty hands ain't made for shaking
00:26:24In a pool
00:26:25It ain't worth breaking
00:26:26Well, I've given up on love
00:26:31Cause love's giving up on me
00:26:33Now I don't hate the one who left
00:26:39You can't hate someone who's dead
00:26:41He's out there holding on to someone
00:26:46I'm holding up my smoking gun
00:26:48I'm fighting where to lay my flame
00:26:54Day she changes her last name
00:26:57Yeah, yeah
00:26:58Well, I'm giving up on love
00:27:01Cause love's giving up on me
00:27:04Sing it if you know it
00:27:05Are you ready?
00:27:06Well, I'm giving up on love
00:27:09Hey
00:27:09Love's giving up on me
00:27:11Hey, hey
00:27:15Hey, hey
00:27:19And that's how a superstar does it
00:27:37Right there
00:27:38I'm Randall Lambert, everyone.
00:27:40Good to see you again.
00:27:41You too.
00:27:42So what's your impression of this group?
00:27:44I love them all so much.
00:27:45I've had such a blast getting to be part of this idol family
00:27:48and getting to know these wonderful artists.
00:27:50It has been a real blessing for me.
00:27:52Well, thank you for spending the time to do it.
00:27:53We appreciate it.
00:27:54It's been awesome.
00:27:54And you've got a new label where you're looking for new talent as well, right?
00:27:56Yeah, Big Loud Texas.
00:27:58We're trying to keep the outlaw movement going.
00:27:59I like that kind of stuff.
00:28:00I know you do.
00:28:01You're the nicest outlaw out there.
00:28:04And your current album is out?
00:28:07Best parts from Texas.
00:28:08Everybody can get it everywhere?
00:28:09Everywhere.
00:28:10Well, thank you.
00:28:10You're going to stick around in the lounge, right?
00:28:12Heck yeah.
00:28:12Miranda Lambert, thank you very much.
00:28:14Big thanks to her.
00:28:16Now, she went back and forth.
00:28:18Deciding on the perfect Adele hit for tonight is Brianna Nix.
00:28:21Here we go.
00:28:23Hello.
00:28:24Oh, my gosh.
00:28:25I'm freaking out.
00:28:26She's the cutest thing, honey.
00:28:28Whenever Ryan announced that Miranda Lambert was going to be our mentor,
00:28:31my face immediately was like, I'm just going to believe it.
00:28:33I love her so much.
00:28:34How are you feeling?
00:28:35Kind of having a hard time with my songs.
00:28:37I'm in between two.
00:28:38So, which songs are you going between?
00:28:41So, it's either Water Under the Bridge or Don't You Remember?
00:28:44Well, let me hear both.
00:28:45Okay.
00:28:45I'll help you.
00:28:48What I really like about Don't You Remember is it's a slow song,
00:28:51and it really just nails on the emotion.
00:28:56She sang it technically right.
00:28:58It was great.
00:28:59But, like, do you believe in it right now?
00:29:02Get your point across.
00:29:03Sell it to me.
00:29:04Let me hear the other one.
00:29:05Okay.
00:29:06Let's do that.
00:29:09When I started singing Water Under the Bridge,
00:29:11I could see her face kind of light up.
00:29:13And so that was kind of like immediately,
00:29:15okay, that's probably the song that I should do.
00:29:17I think Water Under the Bridge is my choice.
00:29:19Okay.
00:29:19I could tell she's in her head, commit to it, and feel it,
00:29:23and make me believe it.
00:29:24Right.
00:29:24She has it in there.
00:29:25She has this big personality, this sass factor.
00:29:28She just hasn't shown us yet.
00:29:30I think you just bring a little bit of attitude.
00:29:32Okay.
00:29:32So, Miranda Lambert sass.
00:29:33Just a little bit of that.
00:29:35We did a sass exercise.
00:29:36He ain't seen me crazy yet.
00:29:38We did a little gunpowder lead.
00:29:40That was part of our exercise.
00:29:43That's one of her most sassiest songs, in my opinion.
00:29:46And so I asked her about sass,
00:29:47and then she just kind of busted it out
00:29:49and asked me to sing with her.
00:29:50And so we did, and it was super fun.
00:29:52Is that right?
00:29:52Yeah.
00:29:54It's definitely a different type of performance, in a way.
00:29:56You know, it is a sassy one,
00:29:57but I'm really excited to go out there
00:30:00and give it everything I have.
00:30:01If you're not the one for me
00:30:11Then I'll come, I can bring you to your knees
00:30:17If you're not the one for me
00:30:21Why do I hate the idea of being free?
00:30:27And if I'm not the one for you
00:30:31You've got to stop holding me the way you do
00:30:36If you're gonna let me down
00:30:39Let me down gently
00:30:41Don't pretend that you don't want me
00:30:43I'm loving water under the bridge
00:30:46If you're gonna let me down
00:30:49Let me down gently
00:30:50Don't pretend that you don't want me
00:30:53I'm loving water under the bridge
00:30:56Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:31:06It's so cold out here
00:31:11In your wilderness
00:31:15It's so cold out here
00:31:25I want you to be mine
00:31:30Be my keeper
00:31:32And I don't feel so happy
00:31:35Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:31:47Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:31:51Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:32:03Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:32:07Oh, say that our loving water under the bridge
00:32:25Brianna, this was the right song choice for sure.
00:32:42I feel like everybody's kind of trying things tonight that's just like a little bit different.
00:32:48They're showing us a different side of themselves, and I feel like this was just a perfect moment for you.
00:32:54You looked and sounded and played the part of like a diva, and it was all working.
00:33:03Yeah, I mean, it was totally that.
00:33:06It was like Adele vibes moments.
00:33:10You never left the mic.
00:33:12You had a nice little kind of groove in there, and then when you got to the back half of that song,
00:33:18I mean, you just really have an incredible voice.
00:33:22And it was listenable.
00:33:26It was just really perfectly well done, and I'm so glad you picked that song.
00:33:32It just felt like the right moment for you.
00:33:35It was great.
00:33:35Thank you so much.
00:33:36It's what I love the most is you take something as iconic as an Adele song and turn it into your song.
00:33:47But let me give you one major compliment.
00:33:49You know how to get to a note and choke it to death.
00:33:55When I say it, I mean, honest to God, there's a moment where I kept saying, okay, let the note up now.
00:34:03Let the note up.
00:34:04No, she's going to choke the note to death.
00:34:06You did such a great job, and I love the timber in your voice.
00:34:10Unbelievable.
00:34:10Thank you, Lionel.
00:34:12Victory.
00:34:13Good job.
00:34:16Sass.
00:34:16Did you like those sassercises you were doing there?
00:34:18I did the sassercises.
00:34:20By the way, Lionel, he is a sassercise.
00:34:22He told me.
00:34:23True story.
00:34:23I remember when he told me this years ago.
00:34:25He has sass, right?
00:34:26He wakes up every morning.
00:34:27He looks in the mirror.
00:34:29True story.
00:34:29And he smiles, and he says, I'm Lionel Richie.
00:34:35Magic.
00:34:37Every day.
00:34:38That's exactly right.
00:34:39And it never fails.
00:34:41And by the way, I'm so excited to see Lionel Richie.
00:34:44I can't really touch.
00:34:44Whereas Luke wakes up, looks in the mirror, and says, I'm Luke Ryan.
00:34:50If Brianna's one of your favorites, vote for her right now, online or via the app.
00:34:54If you text the book, message the day, where it's going to fly.
00:34:57Don't let her go home at the end of the night.
00:34:58We don't want that.
00:34:59Vote, vote, vote.
00:35:00One more time.
00:35:00We're in the Knicks.
00:35:06All right.
00:35:08Coming up, he's taking on a song from our own country icon here, Carrie Underwood.
00:35:12It's Kane and James Hill up next.
00:35:15Keep on voting.
00:35:16There he is, ready to go.
00:35:28Back with you on American Idol.
00:35:31Keep sending in those all-important votes.
00:35:34Now, here's how Miranda Lambert took Kane and James Hill under her wing for his Carrie Underwood song choice.
00:35:40Take a look.
00:35:40I'm going to be singing Love Wins by Carrie Underwood.
00:35:45A Carrie Underwood song.
00:35:47Right.
00:35:48I'm actually very nervous about that whole thing.
00:35:50I'm like...
00:35:51I heard this is your first time to not do a gospel song.
00:35:54Yes, ma'am.
00:35:55On the show.
00:35:55How do you feel?
00:35:57Way out of my comfort zone.
00:35:58It is.
00:35:58It's a different thing for me.
00:36:00I believe you and me.
00:36:03Oh, why do I keep doing that?
00:36:04Oh, my God.
00:36:05You got this.
00:36:06You're learning it.
00:36:06So no big deal.
00:36:07I'm feeling a little nervous because I thought I knew the words before I came in here.
00:36:10There's a lot of words.
00:36:11I think you just got to find your place to breathe.
00:36:13Yes, ma'am.
00:36:14And worry less about hitting it all right on.
00:36:16Yeah.
00:36:16He just didn't feel 100% about the song.
00:36:19Love is a smile.
00:36:20Breath.
00:36:21And today I just felt like there was somebody a little more insecure that I haven't seen on the stage.
00:36:26But I feel like it's important for Kanan to push himself.
00:36:30And this is the perfect song to do that.
00:36:32This feels like gospel.
00:36:36This is a really beautiful message.
00:36:37It's about we're sisters and brothers.
00:36:39I mean, that's exactly what this song says.
00:36:40Love wins and God is love.
00:36:42So just sing it like it's gospel because that's what's in your heart.
00:36:45I'm very grateful that Miranda was very patient with me.
00:36:49They had actually helped me a lot.
00:36:51So Carrie is a long-time friend and she has taken me to church so many times.
00:36:55She sings from another place and I feel like that's what you should channel because that's also what you resonate with.
00:37:00Love.
00:37:02Love wins.
00:37:03Hello.
00:37:03Good to see you.
00:37:04There you are.
00:37:06So happy.
00:37:08That would also, you're going to crush it.
00:37:09A stray bullet and a mama cries.
00:37:24Her baby won't be coming home tonight.
00:37:27Cyrus came in down the avenue.
00:37:30Just love the story when the evening news was on.
00:37:34Politics and prejudice, how did it ever come to this?
00:37:48When everybody's got to pick a side.
00:37:51It don't matter if you're wrong or I know.
00:37:56And so it goes.
00:37:58But I hold on to hope and I won't let go.
00:38:02Cause I, I believe you and me are sisters and brothers and I, I believe we're made to be here for each other.
00:38:16And we'll never fall if we walk hand in hand.
00:38:20But the world that's broken together again, yeah.
00:38:24And I, I, I believe in the end.
00:38:30Love wins.
00:38:38Love is power.
00:38:40Love is a smile.
00:38:42Love reaches out.
00:38:43Love is the remedy.
00:38:45Love is the answer.
00:38:47Love's an open door.
00:38:49Love is the only thing we're fighting for.
00:38:56I, I believe me and you are sisters and brothers and I.
00:39:04Oh, yes I believe.
00:39:07Oh, oh, yes I believe.
00:39:23Oh, yes I believe.
00:39:26Oh, yes I believe.

00:43:53and his smile just made me feel like you're someone that makes people feel comfortable
00:43:57what are you singing i'm singing a song called when we were young by adele then he goes to sing
00:44:02and you're like dang this is amazing like everybody loves the things you do adele when she wrote this
00:44:09song you can definitely tell it was about a relationship but when i hear the lyrics when we
00:44:13were young um i really think about myself in that moment and so i wanted to approach this song
00:44:22playing the first instrument that i ever learned which was piano i learned it from my father it's
00:44:27an instrument that's very close to my heart it's kind of like hey you know when we were young like
00:44:31let's go back to that freedom and that love we love before we appreciated that he made this song
00:44:38really relatable to himself but i was worried that he was closing his eyes a lot really focused on just
00:44:44him and the piano and that emotion i wanted to make sure it didn't feel like he's in his own world and
00:44:48we're not part of it because this is also so emotional by love when you connect with right so
00:44:52that it's not just me right
00:44:56he has his own sound and his own style and what i love about him is he's not afraid to take it there

00:48:18what else do you do
00:48:19i mean

00:48:20i got some tricks up mostly
00:48:21you know what i'm saying

00:48:39thank you ronald

00:48:42when it comes to that style of music
00:48:43and bringing it out man
00:48:44so thank you means the world
00:48:45i love what you just did
00:48:46i love it when you sing like
00:48:50those uh emotional kind of love
00:48:52sweet songs that's my favorite
00:48:54because you have this
00:48:55kind of juxtaposed voice sometimes
00:48:57where you have that growl but it
00:48:59it somehow works in this sweet way
00:49:02um but i'm gonna be honest
00:49:03i just got really scared

00:49:26um tenderness and and to do so many things with your voice
00:49:31when you first started this thing i worried a little bit about
00:49:36what you could do vocally because there's always big voices in this competition
00:49:40but you are amazingly crafty with how you deliver the songs
00:49:47thank you and that was by far
00:49:51that was like my favorite performance you've ever done it was real i felt all the emotions i felt

00:50:31you took your time you look so comfortable no nerves just ease huh well the piano was the
00:50:37first instrument that i fell in love with growing up and um i fell in love with it just
00:50:41listening to my father play it all the time and so this this performance was really about
00:50:45bringing it back to when i was growing up and learning to play and the days that would bring
00:50:49me the most peace and the most calm and so i wanted to bring a little bit of that into

00:52:14abc do we get a trophy this year you don't get anything but a paycheck it's fine
00:52:21back to the iconic women in music and slater nally's take on a queen of country here it is
00:52:27marina lambert i grew up very much listening to her i'm kind of freaking out right now i fangirled a
00:52:35little bit nice to meet you i'm a big fan well thank you well what are you singing today i'm gonna
00:52:41be doing a reva mcintyre song whoever's in new england the meaning behind this song is about almost
00:52:46like a jealous kind of situation and it's easy to get kind of wrapped up in what other people are doing
00:52:51that you're not at especially in a competition like this you know i can't do insane runs or anything
00:52:55like that but my bread and butter is just what i know how to do and and how i sing you spend an
00:53:00awful lot of time hearing a tough young guy sing a song that vulnerable i mean he just feels really
00:53:08genuine so just real simple yeah it's beautiful thanks power on that chorus like i got chills so
00:53:16this is very strong yes thank you you feel like it's in the right key i feel like we need to go up one
00:53:20can you go up a half step yeah miranda lambert suggested that i should take it up a key but it's
00:53:26probably the hardest song i've sang so far on the show just vocally and breath wise yeah oh that's
00:53:32tough there you don't have to if you don't want to hit that big note at the end because i love where
00:53:35everything else lays because he showed so much range and power throughout the song i feel like the
00:53:44last note could come back and be here right here i loved that you like that better i do there are two
00:53:52ways i could end the song with a big note or a soft note final piece of advice for ending well here's an
00:53:57idea if the adrenaline's going and you feel it do it but i love the other way just as much cool
00:54:03honestly i'm still trying to figure that out it's going to be a spur-of-the-moment thing
00:54:17spend an awful lot of time in massachusetts
00:54:22it seems like every other weekend there's a meeting waiting there business must be booming or something else
00:54:40moving in the air up there you say that it's important for a future
00:54:50an executive on her way up he's got to play the part
00:55:00each time duty calls you gotta give it all
00:55:09got with all your heart
00:55:11so when whoever's in new england's through with you
00:55:23in boston finds better things to do you know it's not too late
00:55:33because you'll always have a place to come back to
00:55:44when whoever's in new england's through with you
00:55:49so when whoever's in new england's through with you
00:56:03in boston finds better things to do you know it's not too late
00:56:15so when you're in boston finds better things to do you know it's not too late
00:56:20so when you're in new england's through with you
00:56:25so when you're in new england's through with you
00:56:29so when you're in new england's through with you
00:56:48thank you thank you
00:56:49i i feel like the uh the the story that we saw before kind of left us this this entire song thinking
00:57:05will he won't he is he gonna go for the high note i don't know what are we gonna do i didn't know
00:57:10either i'll tell you what that's great no that adrenaline sometimes i'll be like i didn't hit the
00:57:15note in rehearsals but i'll hit it when i'm out there because you have the adrenaline helping you
00:57:20um great song choice that it's got such a beautiful melody to it and yeah you you went for it and i
00:57:26think it paid off i think it paid off um to make it to have a long artist career when people have you
00:57:38figured out that's when you that's when you show them they don't they don't have you figured out and
00:57:43i would have never pegged you to attempt that song so when as an artist when you can keep the
00:57:49fans guessing and the people guessing and surprise them with stuff they weren't expecting
00:57:54you can have a a long career and what a cool move you just did by picking that song playing guitar
00:58:03um
00:58:05the move the movements and chords in that are not easy and and you just did it all yourself on national tv
00:58:12at the age of 17 18 however dang young you are boy yeah thank you all right so when everybody
00:58:20showed up as a class and i made one statement to everyone i said remember one thing with all these
00:58:26voices you're going to hear don't get psyched out you're going to hear some booming voices you're
00:58:31going to hear riffs you're going to hear everything what you did was understood how you got here you got
00:58:37here by being you you understand me just be you it's fantastic and believe in yourself thank you all
00:58:48right slater you the last lyric of that song there when did you decide when did you pick the ending

01:04:10I love Carrie, she's a long-time friend
01:04:13And this is one of my favorite Carrie songs

01:04:19I was like, Undo It

01:04:25Miranda helped me out a lot
01:04:27Na, na, na, na, na, na, na

01:09:50Woo!
01:09:51How are you?
01:09:52How are you?
01:09:53I am a huge fan of Miranda Lambert
01:09:55You smell good?
01:09:56I do?
01:09:57Yeah
01:09:58She's just been my biggest country musical inspiration and meeting her was just crazy
01:10:02What song are you singing?
01:10:03What song are you singing?
01:10:04I'm singing your song, House That Built Me
01:10:05Are you?
01:10:06Yeah, I learned this song in my bedroom with the guitar and I thought it would be cool to play it for you
01:10:11Even though I'm not playing it for like the actual performance because I've never played in front of the audience and that'd be too scary for me
01:10:16Right in front of me, see how you feel, how about that?
01:10:18I thought if I could touch this place
01:10:23I got to sing with her
01:10:25I wanted to cry because I was so excited
01:10:27Not a lot of people get to do that
01:10:28Won't take nothing but a memory
01:10:31I usually just play guitar in my bedroom and make videos on social media
01:10:36So you're comfortable when it's not like real live audience
01:10:39Yeah
01:10:40Girl, you're on a big stage now
01:10:41You gotta level up and just do it
01:10:44It's that time in the competition to like push yourself and showing the world who you are
01:10:49And I want her to find the confidence to push herself
01:10:52I want you to let Maddie fully shine through
01:10:55Yeah
01:10:56I've been watching you and I feel like I haven't gotten to know exactly the whole Maddie yet
01:11:01And I want to see her
01:11:02You think I should play?
01:11:03I think you should
01:11:04Okay
01:11:05I can do her song in front of her for the first time I play in front of anybody
01:11:11Then I can do it in front of an audience
01:11:13Can you sign my guitar?
01:11:14I sure can
01:11:15I can
01:11:16Okay
01:11:17I want to see all that she has to give
01:11:18Because I know there's a lot more than we've gotten to see to this point
01:11:22I just had to come back one last time
01:11:23Ma'am I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:24But these handprints on the front steps are mine
01:11:25I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:26I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:31So I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:32I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:33I know you don't know me from at home
01:11:38But these handprints on the front steps are mine
01:11:40Ma'am, I know you don't know me from at on
01:11:49But these handprints on the front steps are mine
01:11:55Up those stairs into that little back bedroom
01:12:02It's where I did my homework and learned to play guitar
01:12:10I bet you didn't know under that loud oak
01:12:18My favorite dog was buried in the yard
01:12:23I thought if I could touch this place or feel it
01:12:31This pokingness inside me might start kneeling
01:12:38But out here is the lack of someone else
01:12:43Lord, then maybe I could find myself
01:12:48If I could just come and I swear I'd leave
01:12:55Oh, it's ain't nothing but a memory
01:12:58From the house that built me
01:13:05You leave home and you move on
01:13:14And you do the best you can
01:13:18But I got lost in this old world
01:13:22And I forgot who I am
01:13:29If I could just come and I swear I'd leave
01:13:36Won't take nothing but a memory
01:13:40And you do the best you can
01:13:41If I could just come and I swear I could just come and I swear I'm
01:13:45So, I have so many questions, but I want to tell you, you held your emotions perfectly,
01:14:12and we felt every moment of that performance.
01:14:17Love it.
01:14:19We were hanging on every single note, every single word.
01:14:25That was really quite brilliant, I think.
01:14:29And towards the end, I'm just trying to hold my own tears in.
01:14:33So, it was really great, Maddie.
01:14:36I think it was huge, huge growth for you.
01:14:43I think pushing yourself, you did amazing on guitar.
01:14:47I'm so glad Miranda leaned in on that with you.
01:14:50I think it helped you emotionally do things that we haven't heard yet, and that's a step up.
01:14:57That's a step up.
01:14:58Great job.
01:15:00And Miranda, in a word, what did you think?
01:15:06I just, I saw Maddie.
01:15:08That's what I wanted to see.
01:15:09There you go.
01:15:09I saw you.
01:15:10I wanted to see you, and I saw the full you.
01:15:12That's amazing.
01:15:13And she wants to be seen again tomorrow night, right?
01:15:15Yeah.
01:15:17She wants to compete in the judges' song contest tomorrow.
01:15:19So, if you want that for her, vote right now.
01:15:22It's the only way to ensure all your favorites move on.
01:15:25So, if you've never voted before, there's no better time than right now.
01:15:28Maddie Prude, America.
01:15:29Good job.
01:15:36The final performance is heading your way, and it's coming from Gabby Simone.
01:15:40She's got some Beyonce for you live.
01:15:43Stay right here.
01:15:55All right.
01:15:56You're back live.
01:15:57Here's Gabby Simone's Moving Mentor Session with Miranda Lambert.
01:16:01Take a look.
01:16:02I love this.
01:16:05Those shoes.
01:16:06Those shoes.
01:16:07What size you with?
01:16:08We can share.
01:16:08We can share?
01:16:09Yeah.
01:16:09Okay.
01:16:09Okay.
01:16:10Miranda Lambert.
01:16:11She's definitely an icon, and she's everywhere.
01:16:13She's big.
01:16:14She's big.
01:16:14I'm, like, nervous.
01:16:16I'm singing I Was Here by Beyoncé.
01:16:18I was here.
01:16:20Why did you choose this song?
01:16:22It just speaks of where I am right now.
01:16:24Being more confident, just trying to find myself, and leaving a stamp on the world.
01:16:28I was here.
01:16:31She just blew me away.
01:16:34It felt like I was the only person on the earth, and I was just standing there listening
01:16:38to this gift of a voice.
01:16:40Did you feel that?
01:16:40It's been really hard for me to try and feel it, but I think it's singing it to you.
01:16:45I felt it a little bit more.
01:16:47She's one of those vocalists that if you don't ever know one thing about her, you know everything
01:16:53after hearing her sing.
01:16:53I feel like in the past few years, I've struggled the most I've ever had in my life.
01:16:59I experienced homelessness, and just depression, and mental roadblocks that I faced.
01:17:07I was homeless, too.
01:17:08That's something that you only know if you've lived it.
01:17:10You know what I mean?
01:17:11To have someone like Miranda go through the same things that I've been through, and end
01:17:16up being such an icon, it made me feel like everything's going to be okay.
01:17:21Now I'm here.
01:17:22I'm literally here.
01:17:23I don't cry all that much.
01:17:25That reminded me today of what a song is supposed to do.
01:17:27My only note is saying the emotion of it, because that's what your gift is.
01:17:32I am so thankful that I just got to witness that.
01:17:34I can't wait until the world gets to see it.
01:17:41I want to leave my footprints on the sand of time.
01:17:53Know there was something that, something that I left behind.
01:17:59When I leave this world, I'll leave no regrets.
01:18:07Leave something to remember, so that you won't forget I was here.
01:18:17I lived, I loved, I was here.
01:18:22And I did, I've done everything that I wanted, and it was more than I thought it would be.
01:18:35I will leave my mark, so everyone will know I was here.
01:18:42I just want you to know that I gave my heart, did my best, brought someone to happiness,
01:18:58left this world a little better, just because.
01:19:04I was here, I did, I've done everything that I wanted, and it was more than I thought it would be.
01:19:30I was here, I will leave my mark, so everyone will know I was here.
01:19:39I was here, I was here, I was here.
01:19:52I was here, I was here.
01:19:59I was here.
