Did Angie Miller Do Justice to Beatles Song "Yesterday" on American Idol? (VIDEO)
The Top 9 performed last night on American Idol and front-runner Angie"Angela" Miller did nothing to lose that spot.
Angie Miller took on the task of performing the song, "Yesterday" from the most popular band ever, The Beatles. Covering a Beatles song at any time is risky business because their songs are so highly regarded, but Angie miller struck a good balance to holding to the original melody and adding a few tasteful high notes throughout the song.
It was a flawless performance vocally that really showed her range and control.
Judge Randy Jackson was the first to weigh in with, "That was a stellar performance, what I loved is that you remind me that you have more of that rock girl kind of edge to you it, like Haley from Paramore or the girl from Evanescence. I love that, never be afraid to share that."
Mariah Carey added next, "I felt like what you did was very respectful to the song and you showed your voice. I would love to see more of your rock edge at some point as well."
Keith Urban chimes in with, "This is what I like about you as an artist, for me, watching you perform that song from beginning to end, I felt like there was moments when you were trying desperately to stop thinking about all of the things people were telling you to sing like. I could hear Jimmy's voice in the back of your head, then you would stop thinking about it and just become Angie again. What I love about it is you're in there the whole time and I see that through you, it doesn't matter to me, I see through all of that."
Nicki Minaj always having something colorful to say added, "Unbelievably amazing. You had a good key that showed us your range all the way through. You will absolutely be doing soundtracks for movies, you could do Broadway, you could seriously do anything with your voice. You are amazing!"
