Having Shawn in the room with me
357
00:13:12,191 --> 00:13:14,694

a little bit.
358
00:13:14,694 --> 00:13:16,663
The mission is
to make it to Hollywood
359

Well, good deal.

Thank you.
Mm.
382
00:15:01,601 --> 00:15:04,303
I'm a sucker
for a good songwriter.
383
00:15:04,303 --> 00:15:05,805
I think
what I love the most
384
00:15:05,805 --> 00:15:09,475
is that you have this
silky quality of a storyteller,
385
00:15:09,475 --> 00:15:11,544
and that's the part
I‐I really fell in love with.
386
00:15:11,544 --> 00:15:13,146
Thank you.
387
00:15:13,146 --> 00:15:16,149
You know, we had
Laci Kaye Booth last year...
Right, right, right.
388
00:15:16,149 --> 00:15:18,418
...who was kind of smoky and...
Right.
389
00:15:18,418 --> 00:15:22,188
But she even had a little bit
lower voice than you did.
Yeah.
390
00:15:22,188 --> 00:15:24,624
But she did so well
because it was so...
391
00:15:24,624 --> 00:15:25,758
her thing.
392
00:15:25,758 --> 00:15:26,959
Authentic.
Yeah.
393
00:15:26,959 --> 00:15:29,362
Like I said,
are you gonna go stand beside
394
00:15:29,362 --> 00:15:31,697
some Kelly Clarkson
belter?
395
00:15:31,697 --> 00:15:34,700
No, but are you gonna be able
to walk out there
396
00:15:34,700 --> 00:15:36,335
and really hold a room
with your style?
397
00:15:36,335 --> 00:15:37,837
Potentially yes.
398
00:15:37,837 --> 00:15:39,505
Best storyteller wins.
399
00:15:39,505 --> 00:15:40,673
Yes.
400
00:15:40,673 --> 00:15:41,674
That's true.
So...
401
00:15:41,674 --> 00:15:43,109
Bang.
Right there.
402
00:15:43,109 --> 00:15:44,944
...if you tell a story and we
believe you through and through,
403
00:15:44,944 --> 00:15:46,179
we're gonna subscribe.
404
00:15:46,179 --> 00:15:47,547
Yeah,
we will be butter.
Thank you.
405
00:15:47,547 --> 00:15:48,915
We will melt.
You know?
406
00:15:48,915 --> 00:15:50,917
Yes. Make us melt.
Let's take a vote.

I‐I know we have
a limited time here,
441
00:17:05,758 --> 00:17:07,159
but I really want
to get into
442
00:17:07,159 --> 00:17:08,528
where you are
and how you got there.
443
00:17:08,528 --> 00:17:11,931
I grew up in a small town called
Mountain Pine, Arkansas.
444
00:17:11,931 --> 00:17:13,866
At 5 years old,
they asked us
445
00:17:13,866 --> 00:17:15,935
what we wanted to be
when we grew up
446
00:17:15,935 --> 00:17:17,637
and my grandmother
saved it
447
00:17:17,637 --> 00:17:21,073
and I said I wanted to be
a comedian, a radio host,
448
00:17:21,073 --> 00:17:23,242
and I wanted to be
in a band.
449
00:17:23,242 --> 00:17:25,978
Um, from an early age,
I'd kind of set my goals
450
00:17:25,978 --> 00:17:28,481
to get out of the situation
that I grew up in.
451
00:17:28,481 --> 00:17:30,449
And it wasn't the best
home situation,
452
00:17:30,449 --> 00:17:32,752
so that was kind of
the path out.
453
00:17:32,752 --> 00:17:34,253
Kind of
changing subjects here.
454
00:17:34,253 --> 00:17:36,289
This is
all hypothetical.
Okay, go ahead.
455
00:17:36,289 --> 00:17:37,690
So,
say that I knew somebody
456
00:17:37,690 --> 00:17:39,625
who was auditioning
for "American Idol"?
Mm‐hmm.
457
00:17:39,625 --> 00:17:41,661
Hypothetical,
what would they need to know
458
00:17:41,661 --> 00:17:42,995
before they go
in there?
459
00:17:42,995 --> 00:17:44,764
Before you walk in the room,
you know,
460
00:17:44,764 --> 00:17:47,400
you got to come to
the realization that
you deserve to be here.
461
00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:48,834
Maybe you get the golden ticket,
maybe you don't.
462
00:17:48,834 --> 00:17:50,436
Maybe you learn something
from the experience
463
00:17:50,436 --> 00:17:51,804
that takes you down
a different path.
464
00:17:51,804 --> 00:17:53,172
But before you walk in,
you got to know
465
00:17:53,172 --> 00:17:54,774
that you have earned your spot
to be here today.
466
00:17:54,774 --> 00:17:56,842
I appreciate that.
That's why I'll say
hypothetically.

00:19:42,915 --> 00:19:45,151
Well, I work at the local
PBS station there
526
00:19:45,151 --> 00:19:46,485
in Conway, Arkansas,
527
00:19:46,485 --> 00:19:48,988
and just started a new podcast
called "Country Fried"...
528
00:19:48,988 --> 00:19:50,823
What?
...all about country music.
529
00:19:50,823 --> 00:19:52,425
So we're gonna get you on there.
530
00:19:52,425 --> 00:19:54,760
There you go.
Don't fry me
too bad, baby.
531
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,961
Who do you listen to?
532
00:19:55,961 --> 00:19:57,229
I mean,
who are your
533
00:19:57,229 --> 00:19:58,831
who are your people
that you follow?
534
00:19:58,831 --> 00:20:00,166
Sure. Musically?
Musically.
535
00:20:00,166 --> 00:20:02,435
Well one of the guys
you just saw, Shawn Camp.
536
00:20:02,435 --> 00:20:04,704
How 'bout that?
Right?
Pass him in the hallway?
537
00:20:04,704 --> 00:20:05,938
One of my favorites.
Yeah.
538
00:20:05,938 --> 00:20:07,606
Well, what are you gonna do
for us today?
539
00:20:07,606 --> 00:20:09,608
I'm gonna play y'all
a song that I wrote,
540
00:20:09,608 --> 00:20:12,511
uh, that's, uh, hopefully gonna
be on the next Luke Bryan album.
541
00:20:12,511 --> 00:20:14,380
Sell that stuff!
542
00:20:14,380 --> 00:20:15,614
Hey,
I hope it is.
543
00:20:15,614 --> 00:20:17,283
I hope it is.
544
00:20:17,283 --> 00:20:18,718
Name it and claim it.
Ah!
545
00:20:18,718 --> 00:20:20,019
Let us hear it,
man.
546
00:20:20,019 --> 00:20:22,054

Nice.
568
00:21:56,048 --> 00:21:59,118
Are you writing these
in Arkansas by yourself?
569
00:21:59,118 --> 00:22:00,219
Yes, sir.
570
00:22:00,219 --> 00:22:01,921
You got a band?
Are you gigging some?
571
00:22:01,921 --> 00:22:04,523
I just play solo
every chance I get.
572
00:22:04,523 --> 00:22:06,392
I love it.
You're 24?
573
00:22:06,392 --> 00:22:08,494
Yes, sir.
Have you ever considered
moving to Nashville?
574
00:22:08,494 --> 00:22:10,563
Yes, sir,
I sure have considered it.
575
00:22:10,563 --> 00:22:11,697
What's holding you up?
576
00:22:11,697 --> 00:22:13,265
I put the dream aside.
Mm‐hmm.
577
00:22:13,265 --> 00:22:14,533
And I focused on a real job
578
00:22:14,533 --> 00:22:15,901
and didn't really
give myself a chance.
579
00:22:15,901 --> 00:22:17,002
Mm‐hmm. Mm‐hmm.
580
00:22:17,002 --> 00:22:19,004
Whether I fell flat on my face
or not,
581
00:22:19,004 --> 00:22:21,841
just to at least not go
out of this world wondering,
582
00:22:21,841 --> 00:22:23,342
"Well, what if?"
583
00:22:23,342 --> 00:22:24,376
Yeah.
584
00:22:24,376 --> 00:22:25,511
Well, you're 24,
585
00:22:25,511 --> 00:22:27,580
and when I was 24,
I had a real job.
586
00:22:27,580 --> 00:22:29,849
Right.
And then,
when I turned 25,
587
00:22:29,849 --> 00:22:31,383
I got tired
of having a real job
588
00:22:31,383 --> 00:22:32,985
and moved to Nashville.
589
00:22:32,985 --> 00:22:37,423
To be writing good‐quality songs
by yourself
590
00:22:37,423 --> 00:22:40,226
down in Arkansas
is a tough thing to do.
591
00:22:40,226 --> 00:22:43,095
In Nashville, the competition
will up your game.
592
00:22:43,095 --> 00:22:46,065
I think you ought to really
consider that one day.
593
00:22:46,065 --> 00:22:48,801
Your voice
is pretty dang good.
594
00:22:48,801 --> 00:22:49,935
Thank you.
595
00:22:49,935 --> 00:22:51,770
I‐I just
trying to wrap my head around,
596
00:22:51,770 --> 00:22:53,539
"Is it
'American Idol' stuff?"
597
00:22:53,539 --> 00:22:54,673
Right.
598
00:22:54,673 --> 00:22:57,076
Ryan, I think you have something
to build on.
599
00:22:57,076 --> 00:22:58,177
You have a great voice.
600
00:22:58,177 --> 00:22:59,311
Well, thank you.
601
00:22:59,311 --> 00:23:00,980
And I think you got
so much personality.
602
00:23:00,980 --> 00:23:02,982
I just think you need to keep
carving it out.
603
00:23:02,982 --> 00:23:04,550
I think you're
a couple years away
604
00:23:04,550 --> 00:23:08,487
from really being able to work
that magic dust, you know?
605
00:23:08,487 --> 00:23:10,789
Right.
Let me just
say this to you.
606
00:23:10,789 --> 00:23:12,458
Trust yourself
to go to Nashville
607
00:23:12,458 --> 00:23:13,792
and get
in the business.
608
00:23:13,792 --> 00:23:16,562
You can circle
the pond.
609
00:23:16,562 --> 00:23:18,697
One day,
you got to jump in the water.
610
00:23:18,697 --> 00:23:19,765
Yeah.
611
00:23:19,765 --> 00:23:21,100
You want
to take a vote, guys?
612
00:23:21,100 --> 00:23:22,668
I'm gonna say no
for this trip,
613
00:23:22,668 --> 00:23:24,570
but an optimistic no...
Yep.
614
00:23:24,570 --> 00:23:25,938
...because you got it.
615
00:23:25,938 --> 00:23:27,573
Thank you.
I'm an optimistic no, as well.
616
00:23:27,573 --> 00:23:29,008
Luke?
617
00:23:29,008 --> 00:23:33,112
Nashville needs good, ol'
country guys like you.
618
00:23:33,112 --> 00:23:35,080
I think that you got
a little place there.
619
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,215
Yeah,
play the game.
620
00:23:36,215 --> 00:23:37,616
Well, thank you.
Very good.
621
00:23:37,616 --> 00:23:39,618
Yeah, but, uh,
I'm a very optimistic no, too,
622
00:23:39,618 --> 00:23:41,320
but I want to encourage you
to, man
623
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,522
you know,
don't let people tell you stuff
624
00:23:43,522 --> 00:23:45,791
and let time
pass you by.
Right.
625
00:23:45,791 --> 00:23:48,994
Man, that's that that's
the best no I've ever heard.
626
00:23:50,095 --> 00:23:52,064
It really is a pleasure
to meet y'all.
627
00:23:52,064 --> 00:23:53,265
No, man, you
No, we mean that, though.
628
00:23:53,265 --> 00:23:54,266
We mean it, though. Seriously.
Thank you so much.
629
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:55,367
Nice to meet you, Ryan.
Alright?
630
00:23:55,367 --> 00:23:56,535
Good to meet you. Thank y'all.
You take care.
631
00:23:56,535 --> 00:23:58,203
Well, a lot of times,
we just go, "No."
632
00:24:01,173 --> 00:24:02,975
Ryan?
They hated me!
633
00:24:02,975 --> 00:24:04,810
No.
No!
That's impossible.
634
00:24:04,810 --> 00:24:06,145
No, it was
You know what?
635
00:24:06,145 --> 00:24:07,279
That was the best
636
00:24:07,279 --> 00:24:09,148
probably the best thing
I've ever heard.
637
00:24:09,148 --> 00:24:10,783
He's a
Grand Ole Opry host.
Yeah?
638
00:24:10,783 --> 00:24:13,185
He could sit there and host
the Grand Ole Opry right now.
639
00:24:13,185 --> 00:24:14,353
Oh, absolutely.
640
00:24:14,353 --> 00:24:15,854
They said
it was an optimistic no
641
00:24:15,854 --> 00:24:17,589
because they want me
to go to Nashville.
642
00:24:17,589 --> 00:24:19,525
Really?
Yeah.
643
00:24:19,525 --> 00:24:21,660
They said,
"That's where you belong."
644
00:24:21,660 --> 00:24:22,728
That's awesome.
Yay!
645
00:24:22,728 --> 00:24:24,029
All three of them.
So not Hollywood?
646
00:24:24,029 --> 00:24:25,097
No, not
not Hollywood.
647
00:24:25,097 --> 00:24:26,498

Okay, Courtney.
Do we have a number?
657
00:24:48,053 --> 00:24:49,221
You don't have
a number.

Oh.
It's okay.
659
00:24:50,289 --> 00:24:51,890
I'm number one.

Number one?
661
00:24:52,891 --> 00:24:54,893
Alright.
Well, this is a first.
662
00:24:54,893 --> 00:24:57,296
So, let me introduce you
to the judges.
663
00:24:57,296 --> 00:24:58,497
Judges,
this is Courtney.
664
00:24:58,497 --> 00:25:00,132
Hi, Courtney.
Hi, Courtney.
How are you?
665
00:25:00,132 --> 00:25:01,900
Hi.
I was walking
down the street,
666
00:25:01,900 --> 00:25:03,302
and Courtney
was at the corner,
667
00:25:03,302 --> 00:25:04,803
and she was sitting there,
and she looked very sad,
668
00:25:04,803 --> 00:25:06,038
and I said,
"What's going on?"
669
00:25:06,038 --> 00:25:07,606
She said,
"Well, I showed up to audition,
670
00:25:07,606 --> 00:25:08,974
but I think
I missed the deadline.
671
00:25:08,974 --> 00:25:10,142
But this is my dream,
672
00:25:10,142 --> 00:25:12,044
and I've wanted to do this
all my life."
673
00:25:12,044 --> 00:25:14,613
And so I grabbed her
and brought her up the elevator.
674
00:25:14,613 --> 00:25:17,316
I've been sitting out here
since, uh, 8:00 this morning.
675
00:25:17,316 --> 00:25:18,484
8:00 this morning?
676
00:25:18,484 --> 00:25:20,185
Mm‐hmm.
Just sitting all day.
Really?
677
00:25:20,185 --> 00:25:22,021
Yeah. I was gonna wait for,
like, however long it took.
678
00:25:22,021 --> 00:25:23,422
Like,
I do not care.
679
00:25:23,422 --> 00:25:24,823
Oh, so you're literally just
waiting for everybody to leave?
680
00:25:24,823 --> 00:25:26,525
Yeah. I was over there,
and then I was over there.
681
00:25:26,525 --> 00:25:27,659
Then I was over here.
682
00:25:27,659 --> 00:25:29,895
The problem is,
683
00:25:29,895 --> 00:25:32,231
the producers have started
the auditions with the judges...
684
00:25:32,231 --> 00:25:33,532
Right.
685
00:25:33,532 --> 00:25:35,000
...and I don't know if they're
signing anybody else up.
686
00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:36,668
Right.
That's the problem.
687
00:25:36,668 --> 00:25:38,103
Mm. Okay.
688
00:25:38,103 --> 00:25:40,439
But the solution to that problem
is me just taking you up there
689
00:25:40,439 --> 00:25:41,640
and seeing
if they let you go.
690
00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,142
Okay.
I can't
I can't promise you,
691
00:25:43,142 --> 00:25:44,943
'cause I haven't asked them,
but...
Sure.
692
00:25:44,943 --> 00:25:46,145
At least
if we get up there,
693
00:25:46,145 --> 00:25:47,546
they have to say no
to your face,
694
00:25:47,546 --> 00:25:48,680
which is
probably harder.
695
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:49,848
Right?
696
00:25:49,848 --> 00:25:51,683
Okay.
So you want
to go up?
697
00:25:51,683 --> 00:25:52,985
Definitely.
698
00:25:52,985 --> 00:25:55,054
No one has heard her.
699
00:25:55,054 --> 00:25:56,722
We don't have any idea
what she sounds like.
700
00:25:56,722 --> 00:25:57,823
Are you kidding me?
701
00:25:57,823 --> 00:25:59,625
This is a
This is a first.
702
00:25:59,625 --> 00:26:01,026
Okay, you're on.
Go ahead.
703
00:26:01,026 --> 00:26:02,628
It's all you.
704
00:26:02,628 --> 00:26:05,464
705
00:26:05,464 --> 00:26:07,833
Hi!
706
00:26:07,833 --> 00:26:09,034
Welcome to
the big show!
707
00:26:09,034 --> 00:26:11,303
Ah.
You really skipped the steps.
708
00:26:11,303 --> 00:26:12,304
I definitely did.
709
00:26:13,572 --> 00:26:16,075
So, what's your name?
Courtney Timmons.
710
00:26:16,075 --> 00:26:17,109
Where are you from?
711
00:26:17,109 --> 00:26:18,444
It's called
Harris Neck, Georgia.
712
00:26:18,444 --> 00:26:19,845
Harrison Ache,
Georgia?
713
00:26:19,845 --> 00:26:21,580
It's in the woods.
Hair Snake?
714
00:26:21,580 --> 00:26:25,184
Harris Neck, like neck.
Harris Neck.
715
00:26:25,184 --> 00:26:27,152
And how young are you?
716
00:26:27,152 --> 00:26:28,420
I'm 22 years old.
717
00:26:28,420 --> 00:26:29,855
What do you do for work?
718
00:26:29,855 --> 00:26:31,256
Uh, I'm a security guard.
719
00:26:31,256 --> 00:26:33,859
So, because of
your security‐guard background,
720
00:26:33,859 --> 00:26:36,361
were you able to manipulate
our security guards?
721
00:26:36,361 --> 00:26:37,796
Seems so.
Ah!
722
00:26:37,796 --> 00:26:39,431
Well, there's several of them
locked in a closet.
723
00:26:39,431 --> 00:26:41,033
But, um...
724
00:26:41,033 --> 00:26:43,936
So, did you hear that
"American Idol" was filming?
725
00:26:43,936 --> 00:26:46,238
Actually, I didn't hear about it
until last minute.
726
00:26:46,238 --> 00:26:47,239
Yeah?
Right.
727
00:26:47,239 --> 00:26:48,574
So I was like,
728
00:26:48,574 --> 00:26:50,509
"Well, I'll just sit outside
until I can't anymore."
729
00:26:50,509 --> 00:26:52,244
You mean to tell me
you were there
730
00:26:52,244 --> 00:26:54,079
because you wanted
just to be heard?
731
00:26:54,079 --> 00:26:55,481
That's all.
That's all.
732
00:26:55,481 --> 00:26:57,349
That is all.
Alright, well, you know what?
733
00:26:57,349 --> 00:26:59,351
We love curveballs
at "American Idol."
734
00:26:59,351 --> 00:27:01,620
Sometimes they turn into
American Idols.
735
00:27:01,620 --> 00:27:03,822
So, Courtney...
736
00:27:03,822 --> 00:27:04,857
Yes, ma'am.
737
00:27:04,857 --> 00:27:06,024

Yeah.
Hold on.
762
00:28:25,504 --> 00:28:26,805
Before this show started,
763
00:28:26,805 --> 00:28:29,808
I saw her sitting outside
on the sidewalk.
764
00:28:29,808 --> 00:28:32,344
I thought you were just
kind of a fan of the show.
765
00:28:32,344 --> 00:28:34,046
You can sing.
766
00:28:34,046 --> 00:28:35,814
No, no, no,
you can "sang."
767
00:28:36,882 --> 00:28:37,983
Really?
768
00:28:37,983 --> 00:28:40,185
It's a difference between
singin' and sangin'.
769
00:28:40,185 --> 00:28:41,987
You are a bird,
girl.
770
00:28:41,987 --> 00:28:43,488
Yeah, I did not think
I would get the chance
771
00:28:43,488 --> 00:28:44,790
to come up here
in front of you guys.
772
00:28:44,790 --> 00:28:45,824
Do you want
to be a star?
773
00:28:45,824 --> 00:28:47,159
Do you want to be
an American Idol?
774
00:28:47,159 --> 00:28:48,860
I do. I want to be a singer
more than anything.
775
00:28:48,860 --> 00:28:51,029
And then, when they said
this wasn't an open call,
776
00:28:51,029 --> 00:28:52,531
I was a little discouraged.
777
00:28:52,531 --> 00:28:55,634
But I'm gonna tell y'all,
I was gonna sit all day.
778
00:28:55,634 --> 00:28:57,703
She was just
by herself like
779
00:28:57,703 --> 00:28:59,071
No,
I saw her outside.
780
00:28:59,071 --> 00:29:00,739
She said, "Hey, Katy."
I was like, "Hey, girl."
781
00:29:01,873 --> 00:29:03,942
At least I saw you,
so that was enough.
782
00:29:03,942 --> 00:29:05,277
Uh, n‐‐ Hold on.
783
00:29:05,277 --> 00:29:07,246
At least you saw us?
Yeah.
784
00:29:07,246 --> 00:29:09,581
You're one of the best singers
we've had today.
Exactly.

Really? Oh, my gosh!
786

You're probably the best singer
we've seen today.
787
00:29:13,585 --> 00:29:14,586
Absolutely correct.

00:29:14,586 --> 00:29:15,921

892
00:32:52,871 --> 00:32:56,208
and and gifted
well beyond your age, okay?
893
00:32:56,208 --> 00:32:58,543

honest to goodness,
901
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:09,554
you just continue
going down that road,
902
00:33:09,554 --> 00:33:12,390
and you could make
something happen on this show.

really love what you just did.

such a God‐given gift.

is a thousand years old.

Exactly.

I think that I like

1009
00:37:44,395 --> 00:37:45,463
Yes, sir.
1010
00:37:45,463 --> 00:37:48,133
You really just have to
think emotional.
1011
00:37:48,133 --> 00:37:49,167
Yes, sir.
1012
00:37:49,167 --> 00:37:50,835
But at the same time,
your presentation,
1013
00:37:50,835 --> 00:37:52,704
you've got to think
show business.
1014
00:37:52,704 --> 00:37:54,072
I think
you've got the goods.

Yeah, DeWayne, you know,
if this is your range,
1016
00:37:56,407 --> 00:37:58,042
you got the lows,
the highs
1017
00:37:58,042 --> 00:37:59,711
when you get to
that 3/4 range,
1018
00:37:59,711 --> 00:38:01,246
you're really,
really great.

when you get in
the lower registers.
1022
00:38:05,517 --> 00:38:07,485
Yes, sir.
1023
00:38:07,485 --> 00:38:10,155
It was an interesting take
on "Don't Worry Be Happy."
1024
00:38:10,155 --> 00:38:11,823
I think that you were
showing off your range,
1025
00:38:11,823 --> 00:38:14,492
especially with turning that
whistle part into your falsetto,
1026
00:38:14,492 --> 00:38:15,827

ooh, ooh, ooh ♪

That was very smart. Uh...
1028
00:38:17,195 --> 00:38:18,763

a friend you never lose.
1215
00:44:51,122 --> 00:44:53,457
It's kind of helped me through
a lot so...
1216
00:44:53,457 --> 00:44:56,394
Six or seven years ago,
1217
00:44:56,394 --> 00:44:59,197
I started sliding off the
the deep end.
1218
00:44:59,197 --> 00:45:02,800
Just started using drugs
and drinking all the time.
1219
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:06,470
When I was at my worst,
I lost pretty much everything
1220
00:45:06,470 --> 00:45:09,640
and found myself
on the streets no money.
1221
00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,944
I found like a like a big old
parking structure,
1222
00:45:12,944 --> 00:45:16,280
and so I'm like, "I might
as well sleep up there."
1223
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,216
I would put my arm and my leg
1224
00:45:18,216 --> 00:45:20,918
off the edge
of the parking structure,
1225
00:45:20,918 --> 00:45:22,987
and so I said,
"I'm gonna sleep like this.
1226
00:45:22,987 --> 00:45:24,355
If I fall off, I fall off.
1227
00:45:24,355 --> 00:45:26,190
I mean, at least
I won't have to think about it
1228
00:45:26,190 --> 00:45:27,191
'cause I'll be asleep.
1229
00:45:27,191 --> 00:45:29,860
♪ I'm goin' away
for a long time ♪
1230
00:45:29,860 --> 00:45:31,462
I was so fed up with life.
1231
00:45:31,462 --> 00:45:35,199
Everything I thought that I was
was nothing of what I could be,
1232
00:45:35,199 --> 00:45:37,435
'cause it was nothing I
that I could be proud of.
1233
00:45:37,435 --> 00:45:39,604
Did you guys already
get the job done today?
Yeah.
1234
00:45:39,604 --> 00:45:42,039
My family,
as soon as I told them,
1235
00:45:42,039 --> 00:45:43,674
"This is what I'm dealing with
1236
00:45:43,674 --> 00:45:46,277
and if you can accept me,
you know...
1237
00:45:46,277 --> 00:45:47,878
I want to be your son.
1238
00:45:47,878 --> 00:45:49,580
I want to be your brother.
1239
00:45:49,580 --> 00:45:52,416
I don't want to just
give up on you guys."
1240
00:45:52,416 --> 00:45:53,884
So that's what I did.
1241
00:45:53,884 --> 00:45:55,386

1244
00:45:58,656 --> 00:46:01,225
Yeah.
I don't talk about this a lot.
1245
00:46:01,225 --> 00:46:05,563
Every day was a battle,
and he wanted to do better.
1246
00:46:05,563 --> 00:46:08,099
My family gave me
all that unconditional love.
1247
00:46:08,099 --> 00:46:10,868
Now that I‐I realize
what I was getting at the time,
1248
00:46:10,868 --> 00:46:13,204
all I have now is the rest
of my life to pay them back.
1249
00:46:13,204 --> 00:46:18,109
I love him like I almost
lost him, and I have him back.
1250
00:46:18,109 --> 00:46:20,578
And I'm not
letting go.
1251
00:46:20,578 --> 00:46:21,812
♪ Die if I must,
let my bones turn to dust ♪
1252
00:46:21,812 --> 00:46:23,814
Now it's been two years,
1253
00:46:23,814 --> 00:46:26,751
and no drips of alcohol
and no drugs.
1254
00:46:27,818 --> 00:46:29,520
With all that I've gone through,
1255
00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:31,222
with everything
that I've learned,
1256
00:46:31,222 --> 00:46:35,026
that way that I feel when I play
and I can connect and feel it,
1257
00:46:35,026 --> 00:46:37,895
is true to me,
is true to my story.
1258
00:46:37,895 --> 00:46:41,132
And so if I feel it, hopefully
these people could feel it, too.
1259
00:46:41,132 --> 00:46:45,102
1260
00:46:45,102 --> 00:46:46,370
Wow.

Thank you.
You know what?
1293
00:49:07,278 --> 00:49:10,381
And your voice is a little
not what I expect.
1294
00:49:10,381 --> 00:49:11,415
Yeah.
Yeah,
it's unusual.
1295
00:49:11,415 --> 00:49:12,817
Yeah.

Don't have

You know, you gave us
this story of surrender.
1306
00:49:31,368 --> 00:49:33,137
Whatever you were doing
was the wrong direction,
1307
00:49:33,137 --> 00:49:35,172
and you stopped
and turned around.
1308
00:49:35,172 --> 00:49:37,341
For you to interpret
a song like that
1309
00:49:37,341 --> 00:49:40,277

that's your song is everything.

You're a preacher,
for sure.

you are mysterious.

Thank you.
I'm intrigued.
1315
00:49:49,720 --> 00:49:51,522
I mean,
you have this kind of, like,
1316
00:49:51,522 --> 00:49:53,424
you know,
interesting presence.
1317
00:49:53,424 --> 00:49:55,893
It's a bit like
country Post Malone.
1318
00:49:57,328 --> 00:50:00,364
But what happens if you come
to the City of Lost Angels?
1319
00:50:00,364 --> 00:50:02,533
What are you gonna do
to give yourself some help
1320
00:50:02,533 --> 00:50:04,034
so that you don't spiral?
1321
00:50:04,034 --> 00:50:07,705
Well, I‐I think, uh, it would be
almost an impossibility to me
1322
00:50:07,705 --> 00:50:11,075
to try and go back, and I think
I need to lead by exam‐‐
1323
00:50:11,075 --> 00:50:13,277
The devil works harder.
I know, I know,
1324
00:50:13,277 --> 00:50:15,346
but I have a loving family
that keeps me grounded,
1325
00:50:15,346 --> 00:50:17,848
and, uh, I have meditation
to help me out
1326
00:50:17,848 --> 00:50:20,551
when I think I'm getting
a little blurry.
1327

would watch "American Idol,"

you know, have dinner
or whatever.

01:05:33,563 --> 01:05:34,831
My name is Shannon Gibbons.
1716
01:05:34,831 --> 01:05:36,166
I'm from Long Island, New York,
1717
01:05:36,166 --> 01:05:37,767
and I'm 20 years old.
1718
01:05:37,767 --> 01:05:39,068
How long you
been singing?
1719
01:05:39,068 --> 01:05:41,070
I've been singing since
I was 4 years old.
1720
01:05:41,070 --> 01:05:43,273
Do you gig out?
Have you performed before?
1721
01:05:43,273 --> 01:05:47,143
Yeah, I, uh, joined a band of,
like, middle‐aged men
1722
01:05:47,143 --> 01:05:49,913
about two and a half years ago,
met them at church,
1723
01:05:49,913 --> 01:05:52,849
and took off from there.
Of course.
1724
01:05:52,849 --> 01:05:56,319
I love the guys I play with,
and we're called The Omen.
1725
01:05:56,319 --> 01:05:59,489
So we're all pretty spiritual,
and it's just fun.
1726
01:05:59,489 --> 01:06:00,757
So, what are you
gonna do for us?
1727

Go Blind" by Etta James.

1884
01:13:13,556 --> 01:13:14,991
Aha!
Aha!
It is an acoustic version.

Yes.
Very good.
Aha.

Isaiah, listen.
1912
01:15:07,903 --> 01:15:10,506
You have a lot of range.
1913
01:15:10,506 --> 01:15:12,274
It's true, you can sing.
1914
01:15:12,274 --> 01:15:16,178
I think that you are more

1915
01:15:16,178 --> 01:15:19,548
than possibly
an "American Idol" star.
1916
01:15:19,548 --> 01:15:20,983
I think you've got the goods
1917
01:15:20,983 --> 01:15:23,786
to be on Broadway
and musical theater.
1918
01:15:23,786 --> 01:15:25,721

Go ahead.

are looking for?
No, no, no. No, no.

You have an amazing
delivery package, okay?
1937
01:16:10,399 --> 01:16:12,201
Thank you.
I think you just need an arena
1938
01:16:12,201 --> 01:16:15,404
that capitalizes on your talents
of all of your range,
1939
01:16:15,404 --> 01:16:17,306
because this is
"American Idol,"
1940
01:16:17,306 --> 01:16:19,408
the pop version of
the world of music.
1941
01:16:19,408 --> 01:16:22,711
Sure, of course.
And so it's it's going to
have to stay in that region.
1942
01:16:22,711 --> 01:16:24,713
Let's vote, guys.
1943
01:16:24,713 --> 01:16:26,715
I'm sorry.
It's a no for me.
1944
01:16:26,715 --> 01:16:30,152
I think your stage
is a theatrical stage,
1945
01:16:30,152 --> 01:16:31,520
so it's a no for me, Isaiah.
1946
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:33,322
Okay.
You mesmerized me.
1947
01:16:33,322 --> 01:16:35,458
You brought me right into
your story. It's
1948
01:16:35,458 --> 01:16:37,693
That's what being an artist
is all about.
I understand.
1949
01:16:37,693 --> 01:16:39,295
When you guys perform, you know
that's what it's about.
1950
01:16:39,295 --> 01:16:41,230
I agree with you, and I'm
probably gonna regret this
1951
01:16:41,230 --> 01:16:44,200
in times going on, but, for now,
it's gonna be a no for me.
1952
01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:45,601
Okay.
Thank you, Isaiah.
1953
01:16:45,601 --> 01:16:47,103
Thank you so much
for your time.
Thank you very, very much.
1954
01:16:47,103 --> 01:16:48,704
I hope if I ever get
the opportunity
1955
01:16:48,704 --> 01:16:50,439
again to meet you guys...
Yeah.
1956
01:16:50,439 --> 01:16:52,541
...that I get to sing
for you again.
1957
01:16:52,541 --> 01:16:53,642
Thank you so much.
Very good.

Thank you.
1959
01:16:55,344 --> 01:16:58,380
The judges told me that I was
not right for Hollywood.
1960
01:16:58,380 --> 01:16:59,748
That's totally okay, though.
1961

Thank you. You too.

reached out to me,

Phew!
I mean, you were
singing that song

from your pain that
you've been through.
