Philip Phillips has made it to the Top 5 on the 11th season of American Idol as the only contestant to never be in the bottom 3. This week, he will be singing a 60s song and a British song. With such a soulful voice, Philip should have no problem with a 60s theme. And his ability to sing almost any song in his own style will probably get him through the British song choice.
I will post the YouTube video of Philip’s 60s song after it is posted in American Idol’s official account. The article on Phillip’s British song choice will contain that YouTube video. Please check my home page for all of my other American Idol Top 5 articles.
Philip is the clear favorite and should have no problem getting through the Top 5. While we are waiting for the official video, I have posted the YouTube video of Philip’s amazing duet with Elise Testone of “Somebody That I Used to Know.”
Philip is singing The Box Tops’ “The Letter.” He really changed it up. I was not crazy about the arrangement. The judges said it was missing the melody. That is true, but at least it was unique. And they all said they liked it, anyway.
