But after hearing the song by eliminated contestant Chris Medina from American Idol 2011, we may just have to watch this season after all. The Top 24 have been chosen, which means we wouldn't have to sit through anymore agonizing weeks of auditions.
According to news sources, Medina was booted off the competition on Thursday night's episode in which the top 12 boys were chosen. And as quickly as he was booted off the show, he's been able to put together a song, a video and release date - all within 2 days. That is a record unto itself.
"What Are Words” is everything you’d expect it to be- it’s heartfelt and moving. It tells Medina’s heartbreaking story about his fiancee, Juliana Ramos’ tragic car accident and her subsequent brain injury. The poignant lyrics talk about Chris’ undying love and promises he made before the accident and how he’ll stand by those same words even during this difficult time.Here’s what he told to PopEater in an interview.
One of the changes that Season 10 has above the rest, is their new partnership with Universal Music Group, replacing Sony Music Entertainment. These people at Interscope Records are not going to sit by and let musicians pass them by. If they can make a buck here and there, why not? When he was eliminated on Thursday night he was told by famed producer, Rodney Jerkins that he wrote a song and wanted to produce it for Chris. Another change to the season is the addition of producers to the show who were there to mentor the contestants during the auditions.“It’s a song about making promises and fulfilling them, about telling someone you love that you’ll be there and having them be able to count on you because you said it. Because the words that you say really mean something. It’s a powerful song,”
Chris performed his new single on The Jay Leno Show last night and has released it on iTunes to purchase. It is poignant, it is powerful, and it has made my love for Ryan much more stronger.
