It has been an absolute joy to watch this lovely man-child find the confidence that brought him to the point of tonight's brilliant delivery of one of my all-time favorite songs, Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah". Major kudos to Simon for choosing so perfectly, knowing Lee would do it justice. We believe that he is tonight's clear winner. Those glistening eyes are truly windows to the soul.
On to next week's finals.
Who shall be the next AMERICAN IDOL?
