Jessica Sanchez told by Akon she's 'gonna be a legend one day' on 'American Idol'
Starts out sitting on the piano, such amazing tone and control from the get-go. She's totally a natural; gets the rhythm of the song exactly right, performs it so easily. And is different each week -- never know what she's going to do.
Not an inherently great song, but she raises it to another level.
"That was superb," says Randy Jackson, calling it a really hard song to sing and telling her, "You did an amazing job on that song."
I know exactly what she means; we want her to take over, take a great song and do something super big and crazy with it that everyone will be talking about the next day.
