To say that the last few weeks have been a whirlwind for 18-year-old Angela Miller would be an understatement.

The Massachusetts teen has wowed the judges in round after round, becoming an early favorite in the country's top singing reality competition, American Idol.

With her vast range and incredible control, Miller commands the stage like few others. To date, she has received more praise and been lauded more than any other contestanton American Idol.

"You have huge talent - vocally, musicianship - you just have a big, big gift that doesn't require any compensating," said judge Keith Urban following her performance of Jessie J's "Nobody's Perfect" last week. "You just have a beautiful voice...I wish I had more time to give you more adjectives. I have a feeling I'm going to have plenty of chance to do that."

Randy Jackson added, "You are definitely one of my favorites in this competition. I think America's witnessing the building of a superstar."

Miller first grabbed the attention of the judges - and millions others - with her flawless rendition of her original song, "You Set Me Free." The song is a beautiful telling of Christ's unconditional love and acceptance and the perfect way for Miller to demonstrate her faith on one of the biggest platforms in the world. Since the performance, the YouTube video has gotten almost 2 million views and spawned numerous covers.

After sailing through to the top 20 in last week's Sudden Death Rounds, Miller can breathe easy this week. The remaining 20 contestants who didn't sing last week will get their chance on February 27 and 28, and Miller will hit the Idol stage again the first full week of March.
