ABOUT AMERICAN IDOL
AMERICAN IDOL, the iconic series that revolutionized the television landscape by pioneering the music competition genre, returned to the airwaves in March 2019 for its second season at its new home on ABC. The nationwide search for the next superstar kicked off in August 2018, as the Idol Bus traveled from Portland, Oregon, to Orlando, Florida, in its pursuit for talent, covering 23 cities across the country. Auditioning was made easier than ever as hopefuls also had the opportunity to submit audition videos online, as well as via select social media platforms using an official tag, #TheNextIdol, cultivating over 300,000 posts. Also, for the first time in “American Idol” history, hopefuls had the opportunity to audition through a livestream platform. Helping to determine who America will ultimately vote for to become the next singing sensation, are music industry forces and superstar judges, Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie. Emmy® Award-winning host and producer Ryan Seacrest will return as host of the beloved series.

It's not just that Alejandro is super chill, super nice. But he's the most talented contestant ever, and he's very meek about his talent, which makes him more likable.

I agree most talentsd ever
We are witnessing something extraordinary happening. A legend in the making and we are lucky enough to listen to a true musical genius. Only legends can move you with their music and voice. They inspire and hypnotize you with their sound. They are remembered because they literally touch your soul. I would argue that this kid is even greater than a legend. He manages to grab your soul and you become transfixed by his sound. He hooks you and you want more and can't get enough. One day even legends will travel far distances just to meet him. My god what a talent. How lucky are we......
This is what the intersection of art and music looks like. So refreshing!
I strongly believe that an artist of the caliber and fiber of Ben Harper only came to a show like American idol because of Alejandro Aranda. He changed the show forever. I feel blessed for having had the honor and pleasure of witnessing this great artist take his first steps into the professional music world. I hope he gets a chance to spread his music everywhere in the world.

BEN HARPER!!!! Lifetime fan here. An icon and master of emotional songwriting! Never thought he would be on American Idol. Wow! So glad Alejandro requested him.
This is one of the greatest performances I’ve ever seen on American Idol. I keep watching it over and over. Great chemistry between Alejandro and Ben.
Alejandro's perfomance was like being next to a campfire in a cold night, looking at the bright stars illuminating the dark skies and then suddenly you hear a soothing, warm song carried by the wind to your ears.... Ahhh.. this guy is very unique.

I haven’t watched this show in like 14 years, he’s the ONLY reason I watch and count the days hours till I see his next performance, I cannot get enough of his unique talent.I hope he wins! I will be voting for him every week!!
His voice is so calming. Like when you are stressed play his song then it takes you to a paradise and forget the troubles you are in
Alejandro Aranda, he is amazing. I would buy albums with just him. He would write a movies with this songs and I see the movie again and again. I just can't believe how good he is. He doesn't know how good he is either!! ☺♫♫♫☺
I love Alejandro's singing!!! Since I heard him on the auditions, everyday I listen to his beautiful, relaxing and soothing God given gift of a voice!!
I didn't sleep just to see his performance.. gosh ... He's so good..
There's just something about Alejandro that makes him so very unique and special. I enjoy the calm and quietness. Sometimes that's what we need in this crazy & fast paced world.
The most important part of ALEJANDRO is his humbleness, I'm so Impressed by the way these judges actually love him.. Alejandro u got this
Finally a full artist with composition, instrumental skills, and vocals. There are some good singers and performers but Alejandro is what gets me excited for the show. I really hope he brings out the piano just to show people the level he is at.
I just hope that we all see his original song blesser, on the show. That my friends is a masterpiece...........

I hope you will win this competation alejandro🙏 I'm now fan of yours😍 loving you from philippines❤️😘
When Lionel Richie says "Wow", it's an approval for something outstanding. I salute you "Alexandro Aranda". And this duet with Ben Harper...!! Man, you got my "wow" for sure, as well as the whole world's not just Lionel's and mine....
His honesty touched my heart. He is just so humble, (which by the way is rare nowadays in the celebrity stakes) he deserves all the accolades coming his way. He just will not fail to win more hearts as more people come to witness his amazing talent.

I have depression for 10 years, I was really , really bad one month ago ., the same day I was thinking to hurt myself I heard a song , a beautiful song . A song with a soul. I watched Alejandro’s video his voice gave me so much hope I started to cry I cried a lot . Since that day I never ever stopped to listening his songs Alejandro’s songs the magical melodies are healing my soul. He is very special for me ! God bless you Alejandro! I love you! from the bottom of my heart. ❤️

HE IS AMAZING went to his homecoming parade and seen these two sing live was AMAZING!!! to stand so close and watch was unreal!!!!
Re-watching this after almost 2 years. Alejandro (ScaryPoolParty) is about to release his 3rd album. This performance with Ben Harper was so cool - it was like watching a Grammy's performance. His solo music is so different from this - he's so talented and versatile. Looking forward to seeing what he does next.

I've never been following a single contestant like I've been following Alejandro. Every performance is full of emotion, passion and beauty. I already have his spotify songs in my favorites list, it's very rare to have someone with this kind of talent, I mean there are other incredible contestants like Wade Cota or Eddie Island, but it's like Alejandro is just ready to take on the charts, his songs are already amazing!! And with such a humble heart...dang. Love him!
I have been begging for The Rebirth of rock and roll and storytelling. Alejandro you are the man!! I will buy every single album you release
Every time Alejandro begins singing, it instantly brings a smile to my face. His voice is just so beautiful.
And he hasn’t played piano since his first audition (when he played a bit)... I’d love he played a killer song he has, “Blesser”.... Chopin-meets-Jamiroquai style.... blazing, jaw-dropping piano technique....

@@gustavcastro7384 I'm kind of wondering how he got Ben, because what I got out of this probably isn't what most people got, Ben pushed him, and it wasn't perfect because its outside of Alejandro's comfort zone, but at the same time its reality tv history. This was just next level, and it resonated with the audience, even if they don't get the technical stuff. I already really admire Alejandro's guitar skills, I think because he is self taught he knew what kind of sounds he wanted and he learned how to make them, this wasn't typical Alejandro guitar either, you can tell when an artist really appreciates another artist, and Ben and Alejandro put a lot of time in this. On a totally different tangent I was really happy Jeremiah got Cynthia Erivoh, when I hear him I hear Broadway calling.
Alejandro's musicianship on the guitar is subtle yet distinctly leading. Amazing.
So much feels. Listening to this performance, eyes closed, brings so much calmness in my heart.

This singing only proves one thing, not only is Alejandro adept at instrumentation but his singular talent- and that voice that fuels it, is enough for all of us to stay and be swept away. He’s a catharsis and almost healing.
