He covered Radiohead’s “Creep,” which began in a haunting fashion, as a piano-driven ballad, and it built up into a true vocal powerhouse. The song was personal and meaningful to him, to the point where his listening audience and viewers at home could relate to its heartfelt lyrics. His performance was filled with raw emotions, and sung with a lot of heart, as he displayed his wide vocal range.
