Is a shame that his latest album did not have the right promotion, not even you knew it is out.
Its a great collection of songs, something for everyone.

That’s a tough one, Sherry. I love Clay’s lower register at the beginning of BOTW and around 1:30 – 1:46. I have not seen this in awhile but I do remember the night, the gasp after Simon’s comments & the obvious shock he felt at just the thought of winning. That innocense was part of his charm. After most all of his performances you could see how proud he was to have made it so far in the competition and to be in each moment.

There were many memorable performances by Clay during AI2 and you picked 3 very good ones. I thought Unchained Melody was excellent, even at the fast pace due to the limited time slot. To these I would add Mack the Knife, Everlasting Love, Solitaire (of course) and my personal favorite: To Love Somebody.
