Hinder singer on Lee DeWyze: ‘A front-runner with a great voice’
Last night, “American Idol” Top 24 contender Lee DeWyze proved his vocal might when he took on Hinder’s “Lips of an Angel.” (Buy Lips of an Angel from Lee on iTunes) Though the judges pointed out some minor pitch problems and a terrified look on his face, for the most part, their reaction was overwhelmingly positive. Kara DioGuardi told the 23-year-old Mount Prospect, Ill., native that his voice was a good fit for “radio right now,” Ellen DeGeneres called his performance “great,” while Simon Cowell declared that Lee was “head and shoulders above everyone else” and “may be the one to beat.” Read the Full story at the LA Times

After having a great performance last week Lee came out this week singing “Lips of an Angel” by Hinder.
Randy felt it was a little out of sorts at times and had a few pitch problems but he LIKED it!
Ellen agreed with the few pitch problems but it doesn’t matter because he is so good and has so much passion and intensity in his performances, she thought it was GREAT.
Kara thought it was a big improvement from last week, the pitch problems got a ton better. The one thing she really feels is that she can hear him on the radio right now!
Simon thinks vocally he is head and shoulders above everyone else in the competition right now but he needs some self beliefe! Simon just wants him to totally connect and at that point he will be the one to beat!
Be sure to check back soon for Lee’s video from tonight!
