Taylor tops the charts with his coronation song! While I was shocked that Taylor won when we still had Katharine, Chris and Elliott, I'm glad they gave him a good song for the finale! Here is Taylor's winning moment.

Idk why but there's just something about "Do I Make You Proud" that works for me - coronation songs are cheesy and usually aren't my favorite (although I do think I have a relatively high tolerance for cheesy stuff, I don't dislike most coronation songs) but "Do I Make You Proud" is one of my favorites along with "A Moment Like This", "Inside Your Heaven", and "Home".

Mario was one of the most popular guys in season 4. It was quite shocking when he suddenly quit the show after making the top 12. Nikko Smith replaced him. He still managed to get signed and went on to have this one hit wonder. Here is his audition clip!

I feel the same way about "Do I Make You Proud". It is definitely up there with those coronation songs you mentioned. We should do a American Idol Coronation Songs rankdown lol |

My guess is one of the following 3 will be next, with all 3 likely missing the top 5:
"Stay With Me"
"Inside Your Heaven"
"Wanted Dead or Alive"

I love "Favorite State of Mind" but am not one bit surprised it is out here, I thought it could get ahead of "Stay With Me" at least

This was a great single choice that showed her adapting from small-town country life into big-town city life. This superstar came from humble beginnings and we got to witness it all. Here is Carrie's audition clip!

This was a great lead-off single that jump started Carrie's career. It topped the country charts for multiple weeks and crossed over into the top 5 on the Christian radio charts! Today, this remains one of her most beloved and successful singles. Congrats to fearlessarrow & castleoblivion26 for perfect rankings! This ended up getting the most #1's for this rankdown! Here is my favorite performance of hers on American Idol!

The top 2 were only separated by 4 points! Between these two songs, we had three #1 rankings.

I'm glad JTTW didn't win at least. My guess is BTHE will win.

I wish so much that Carrie had recorded "Alone" she owned that performance!

"Behind This Hazel Eyes" might be my favorite Kelly Clarkson song, it's so good. "Because of You" is also amazing so this top 2 is well-deserved as much as I love "Jesus, Take the Wheel".
