Flashback: Blake Lewis' "When the Stars Go Blue"

While on the sixth season of Idol, runner-up Blake Lewis doled out a lot of memorable performances thanks to his unique beat boxing skills. When it came to his take on Ryan Adams' "When the Stars Go Blue" for the country-themed Top 7 week, however, things were not so memorable. Watch the performance below:



This performance showed that when Blake did not go out on a limb by rearranging songs that would normally not fit his vocal style, his "regular singing voice" just did not measure up to his placing on the show. Still, the fact that he was able to bounce back from these performances demonstrates that he had a strong affinity for his fans.
