comes in with that heavenly husk immediately, Katy singing along. She knows her way around a lyric, easily navigates the melody, works the camera like a star. This was very pretty, touching.

Song choice is everything and McKenna knocked it out of the park with this one. What a great job she did honoring the song and putting her own spin on it with delicate changes. I've got to say that hers is one of the more compelling voices to come out of this show. Few artists have her natural tone and she really has one of those voices that make you recognize it right away because it's so distinct from the rest of the pack. Add to that her delivery which is so earnest and full of authenticity. Win or lose this competition, she's got a future in music and I'd happily snatch up her album in a heartbeat. Girl's got my vote!

@americanmade1979 14 днів тому

My thoughts exactly!! I absolutely LOVE that deeper tone, sultry, angelic, cry type of female singers... I've been waiting 4 years worth of Idol contestants to get to hear exactly what she's delivering!!

@gloriakrueger6774 17 днів тому
