Flashback: Lisa Tucker's "Because of You"

Lisa Tucker was among the youngest finalists to compete on Idol's fifth season, and although she gained praise from the judges early on in the season, a few instances of poor song choice ultimately led to her demise. One of these performances was her final one as a contestant, Kelly Clarkson's "Because of You," which she sang Top 10 week for the "Songs from the 21st century" theme. Watch the performance below:



As ambitious as Lisa was to take on a former Idol's greatest song, her take on the song reminded the audience of how she just did not stand up to the standard set by Kelly. Still, at only 17 years-old when she was eliminated, Lisa demonstrated that she had the guts to take risks at such a young age, and she did the best she could possibly due considering the circumstances.
