ABOUT AMERICAN IDOL
AMERICAN IDOL, the iconic series that revolutionized the television landscape by pioneering the music competition genre, returned to the airwaves in March 2019 for its second season at its new home on ABC. The nationwide search for the next superstar kicked off in August 2018, as the Idol Bus traveled from Portland, Oregon, to Orlando, Florida, in its pursuit for talent, covering 23 cities across the country. Auditioning was made easier than ever as hopefuls also had the opportunity to submit audition videos online, as well as via select social media platforms using an official tag, #TheNextIdol, cultivating over 300,000 posts. Also, for the first time in “American Idol” history, hopefuls had the opportunity to audition through a livestream platform. Helping to determine who America will ultimately vote for to become the next singing sensation, are music industry forces and superstar judges, Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie. Emmy® Award-winning host and producer Ryan Seacrest will return as host of the beloved series.

At the end he thanked the musicians that were on stage with him. That's all I need to know. Well done.

[@tommyvalle633]

I thought that was so cool 2

[@jasonmartinez4782]

Class

[@shekharbista844]

Oozes class this lad

[@LucasPavanSoares]

That attitude shows so much about his personality, that even makes me think “how the fuck can a genius be so humble?”

[@joselorio5794]

Once the guys at the band got to know him. And he performed solo in other rounds. Notice they enjoyed being there watching him play.

[@emilybudrawich2411]

2024, and he is still and will ever be the best IDOL ever had.

[@met1154]

And Candace glover.

[@beckydecker5024]

This is what I came to say!

[@beckydecker5024]

Everytime a new season of Idol comes on I always come back to watch Alejandro bc there will never be another that will be as good as him in my eyes

[@amandapetersen4595]

There will never be someone more talented than Alejandro on American Idol. The best of all time and he was robbed of the title by a kid who was traditionally cooler/good looking. This man will always be the winner to me!

[@TuanNguyen-bd8cw]

I dont think he was robbed he did play some originals, and i am sure there is a contract they sign to get on the show, with the originals belonging to the show, him bowing out at the end is simply him already knowing he has made it. Plus hell get to keep his songs.

[@xxmezadxx]

I think it was a calculated loss on behalf of the producers and Lionel Richie. I've heard the contract that comes with a win is horrifying. By losing he was free to pursue his own career, with all the benefits of American Idol's exposure. He's been touring the country! That other little twerp that won has done nothing since.

[@o0bananaman0o]

Yeah the winning contract is horrible, better off coming second and use the raw talent to score better record deals

[@calashibryant295]

Ever!!!!!

[@patriciafogleman9440]

As long as the world ultimately gets to hear and to know him, he is the real winner

[@amandapetersen4595]

Every 6 months or so I think about Alejandro and then come back to you tube to watch all his videos for the hundredth time

[@DannyGu33]

He is actually making new songs rn, search him on yt

[@troibltn3535]

The way he changes the whole song into his own is just amazing. I bet he's even more amazing live.

[@zaheeduddin743]

I would like to hear sunflower

[@paularkins6039]

Not really changed.... very similiar. Just softer tone. Still excellent

Yes I noticed that too. Such a good sport !

[@TaskForceB]

He was runner up

[@MandatedReporter]

His skills are insanity level

[@ChrisEchoes]

Did you all notice he actually acknowledge the musicians backing him? That is what a true musician / artist always will do. Classy move and I bet those guys are willing to go the extra mile for him.

Listen to this with headphones on. When he starts his guitar solo the bass kicks in and the song just melts.

Seriously! That's why Katie said "that was so cool"

Yas! Im obsessed! Ima need a whole cover of this song! ❤❤❤❤☺

It sounds like a heartbeat.

[@radinsyah1574]

Not having this available as a produced number is a crime.

[@Robj007]

AGREED

[@Vanasse1]

Totally agree!

[@philkwon81]

During his first audition, he said that he didn't think he was talented (just hard working). I get what he's saying, but finding the motivation to work that hard to become that good (at anything) IS a talent, my friend. So, keep working hard. Your dreams just might start chasing you instead. Cheers!

[@miguelramirez1582]

Exactly my thoughts Phil Kwon He'll step it up when he needs to ,, and when he figures out what sound Amer Idol is looking for ,, America it seems may just be ready for someone like this artist. He thanked the band at the end of "I fall apart" he instructed them on the Bass, the tone, the vibe, the mood, the timing, the synthesizer and whole song. He does it all.

[@Ashgrove17]

Nothing worth doing in life comes easy Alejandro. You're on the right track man. If it was easy, then everyone would be doing it. You're are rare talent and thanks so much for entertaining us mere mortals.

[@Lito21_]

I usually tend to think talent shows lean towards favoring singer with big voices instead of artists but man I havent been this excited about an artist on a talent show since James Arthur on X Factor UK 2012. Alejandro is legit and is super talented, definitely has my support this season.

[@MrDyssonance]

DUDE WTF. ME EXACTLY. Haven't been this excited since James Arthur. And I can't believe Im saying this but I'm way more excited for Alejandro and his future!!

[@chawitamarzav7806]

Same!

[@GunnerDuels]

My exact thoughts when I first hear him sing at his first audition. I thought of James Arthur!

[@nhatnamtrinh5017]

Yeah. His voice doesn't blow heads off. He uses the band only a little. Most pop songs on the radio are dominated by drum beats, so what he's doing is refreshing to the ears. His songs are accessible and sophisticated at the same time. The arangement and chord use are tasteful. And playing instruments well only adds to his value.

[@Graceymay74]

I haven't watched any talent shows for a fair few years because it became a mushy sameness. I came here to hear and see Alejandro but discovered James Arthur as a bonus :) thank you!

[@SuperJack37]

You are making not just our culture proud but humanity as well. To leave the judges with no words to critique you, makes you even greater. Stay humble. You got our support.

[@nursev1003]

Munguia49 same...🤔

He said in his story on IG was mexican, making our ppls proud for sure. It makes me so happy!

[@LysiaJ]

SuperJack37 he is just mind blowing and absolutely beautiful

[@peterbooi534]

That lead guitarist's improvisations are just as sick. It just compliments to what he sings. It just worked so damn well

[@monkeh4225]

This performance alone shows how creative of an artist he is. I still cant believe he lost to a karaoke singer.

[@clifcarothers8559]

the subtle touches of the band brought Alejandro's sound to a next level

[@miguelramirez1582]

Alejandro arranged all that. He's a true one of a kind artist. There's nothing like him in history of the show. Luke Bryan knows what's up He will carry this show

[@jrizzledrizzle4697]

He almost cried when Luke complimented him. Good job buddy, well deserved

This was the best performance of the entire season. Alejandro has unusual talent, especially for American Idol. He will thrive.
