Danny Gokey
Danny is first with Judges' choice. He get's a text message from Paula while at a radio interview back home. The message says his song will be Terrence Trent D'Arby's "Dance Little Sister".
It's Stevie Wonder-esque. Not bad.
Randy: Let the games begin! Way to jump it off tonight! That was dope for me, dude.
Kara: His money spot. The dancing was a little too gyrating for me (audience boos) Am I going to remember that performance tomorrow? I don't know.
Paula: I'm a choreograher and I think you did really good. Fantastic job. Way to go!
Simon: I thought the dancing was a bit desperate. Vocally very, very good. I wouldn't have put the saxaphone solo in there. [wishes Danny (or Paula) had picked a different D'Arby song]
Paula wants to say something, but Simon puts her in a chokehold and covers her mouth. Paula flails frantically.
Seacrest: They're either hugging or that's second base.
