He chooses Garth Brooks' "To Make You Feel My Love".
Randy Travis is impressed with the way Kris "makes it his own". Says that Garth would be proud of him.
I'm not familiar with this song, but it's nice. No guitar this time, just him sitting on a stool with a spot light over him.
Paula: I'm pleasantly surprised. Honest, pure, vulnerable. Without the guitar it allowed me to remember how nice your vocals are. A few pitch moments at the end.
Simon: I thought that was terrific. Really, really good. Great choice of song. Completely in control. You didn't go over the top. First time I heard you perform where I actually believe you have a genuine shot at doing well in this competition.
Randy: Tender moments from my dog, Kris! Tender-dawg!
Kara: I didn't even know it was Opryland. Very good!
Can’t believe they are putting lil so early in the show instead in her usual spot to be promoted.
I absolutely love that song. It was written and first performed by Bob Dylan. In addition to Garth Brooks, it's been covered by a number of people, including Trisha Yearwood, Billy Joel, Neil Diamond, Joan Osborne, and Kelly Clarkson (in an early demo).
Wow at Simon's positive feedback. He's a hopeless romantic. Truly...based on the songs he says are among his favorites.
Kris did AI’ght, ‘cept voice cracked during the high part towards the end.
