Maddie Poppe

Singing her own song, "Don't Ever Let Your Children Grow Up". Much deeper than anything the Idol song writers could come up with.

Luke: I miss that song. I was happy to hear that again. Quintessential Maddie Poppe.

Lionel: Owning your style. Welcome back. You have to love you. You have to like everything you do on stage. That was very comfortable.

Katy: I love that you took a risk. At least the world knows you're authentic as heck.

Seacrest saunters over to the judges' table.

Katy: I thought the first round was a disaster. WAKE UP!

Seacrest: You scared our stage manager.

Check out the wristbands that light up. So cool. We had those last night at the Rose Bowl and it really looks magical. Everyone’s got them on and they change colors.

I actually like Maddie’s own song. Better than the other new songs, like you said.

Man, Lionel is really monotonous with his love and owning and comfortable. Nothing he says is memorable. I hear he was with the Commodores, though.
