Jack Blocker is a treasure ... just recently discovered ... and soon to be fully embraced.

[@Mike-do8bc]

DON'T CHANGE your facial expressions or delivery! It's amazing and makes you stand out. They said things like that to Joe Cocker! He is an icon and legend! ❤ you being YOU!

[@AileenCrisogono]

You always feel every lyrics in your song! Amazing voice and true humility!! Youre a winner!!

We agree! Vote for Jack during next Sunday's finale!

[@theprpress]

Same here! Such a good performer!

[@joyceferguson5940]

You are amazing..your voice is so clear and you make every song your own....always on pitch You deserve to win

[@davev3559]

Listen to the words of his original song audition and you'll instantly know he's a deep and complicated soul that needs to make music.

[@jh-is8nq]

#1 Jack B for the win! Jack and Emmy on "Hello" was off the charts. My two picks for the final.

[@theprpress]

We loved that duet too! Can't wait for next week's performances!

[@katrinalma1]

SUCH a fan! Beautiful voice, original songs, and a good soul! Doesn't get any better--great work Jack!

[@makelifematter1896]

Never ever change the amazing human you are love your music, your attidude and your emotions with all your expressions you definitely are my number one vote from this ole Country music lover but most of all incredible music 🎶

[@sodobson]

jack and abi are just level ahead.. i just gravitate to both of em... Abi is the best real talent... but i'd have to give jack my vote.. cause if they said theyre performing at the same time and i had to make a choice.. i'd go see Jack... so thats how I'll vote. Jack for American idol winner.

[@karenwebbkryder6562]

Go Jack!!!

[@timcaldwell5241]

Well, he finished 3rd, which may be a blessing in disguise…now he can make music unencumbered by the constraints that American Idol puts on the winner! He is an entertainer of the top class…in an arena where EVERYONE has a great voice…he stands head and shoulders above the rest!!!

[@theprpress]

Can't wait to follow Jack's career in music!

[@edwardmcdevitt790]

Not to be negative, but you are an amazing artist and have voted for you every time on American Idol. If you listen to this interview, put on Closed Captions and you'll see that you use the word "Like" too many times. Try practicing without using the filler word "like". Again, I don't mean to criticize you at all. Keep up the great work and I can't wait until Sunday!!! Love and hugs to you, Jack!!!

[@aaron-dd5zr]

A little bit of Hank Williams Sr in his style. If you ever come to VA, I hope I find out. Me and my wife could see you play. You were with a great group on Idol. But you really won as far as I figured.

[@ashpole59]

Hope he wins i dont want Abi.
