I love this performance, James is amazing as always. It's crazy what he can do with his voice. Most people can't carry a damn tune and are tone deaf. Most wouldn't know good music, even if it punched them in their pee brains. James on the other hand, has such power in his voice. Great song choices in every performance. The high notes he can hit are truly amazing and unbelievable. I watched this season in full and it was so messed up. He should have won. People complain about stupid shit and act hypocritical. When they should just appreciate this music still being on TV. Introducing a younger generation to GOOD MUSIC!! No auto-tune, no fakeness and actual talent. If we supported this more, we would hear more of this music today. We could weed out all the fakeness and start a rock revolution. Oh.. It was cool seeing Zakk there too.

Besides Adam and a few others. Hmmmm, where is James now? OH THAT'S RIGHT!!! He's the new lead singer of Quiet Riot. I'm sure you've heard of that band.

James Durbin has a multi-album deal with the Italian record company Frontiers and is about to release a new heavy metal album in 2024. Ironically, the same record label the co-writer of this song, Jim Peterik, is on as a member of the group Pride of Lions. Bo Bice, who sang Peterik's song "Vehicle" on Idol, has co-written with Peterik on the Ides of March song "Love or Something Like It" from their Play On album (Bo also sings co-lead vocals with Peterik on the song). Another American Idol alum, Leslie Hunt, has a new song coming out in January 2024 on Peterik's upcoming World Stage album. She previously sang some songs on his Tigress World Stage album including the wonderful song, "Brave is Beautiful".
