Though Colton Dixon is no longer on American Idol, his spirit was channeled during Angie Miller's powerful rendition of his smash single, "Never Gone" last week. Back in her comfort zone, Miller sat on the piano belting the power ballad reminiscent of Coldplay and Mercy Me.

Miller's incredible performance bumped Dixon's "Never Gone" to #1 on the iTunes Christian and Gospel charts. Miller also helped Dixon's debut album, "A Messenger" climb to #1 on the top Christian album category.

After Miller's performance, Dixon took to Twitter to congratulate the Season 12 favorite.

Dixon tweeted, "?@AngieAI12 just killed "never gone". I'm beyond proud. ?#speechless?#incredible"

Angie tweeted back, "?@coltondixon such a HUGE pleasure singing your song!! Hope you had a great night watching it =) Thanks for the support, man!!?#ImAMessenger"

Dixon has always been a fan favorite on American Idol and has gained a strong following since his shocking elimination. To his own admission his performance of Lady Gaga's "Bad Romance" most likely alienated him from the fans that were voting for him.

Breaking into the Christian music scene, Dixon was welcomed with arms wide open by other veteran artists in that specific industry.

One of the more veteran Christian rock bands, Third Day, has taken Dixon on with them for their "The Miracle Tour." From February 21, 2013, the musicians including Third Day featuring Dixon and Josh Wilson started the adventure of touring through 45 cities.

The group even caught on to the "Harlem Shake" hype and rocked the viral dance moves on stage with all their fans.
