The way I figure it, they are both friends, they pray together - that's good. If Ruben wins, Clay will get a wonderful recording contract with Neil Sedaka, or basically whoever he wants to sign with. If Clay wins, it will be a testament to his versatility and range. Either way, it's good. Either way, both young men will have a good-to-great music career ahead of them. We don't have a Nikki McKibbin situation percolating here, and that's good. And both young men have had their talent showcased nationally already. (But I'm voting for Clay!)
Brace yourself: he did it with a gospel choir!
