Ace Young was, is and always will be my favorite American Idol.
I've met him several times and he is a beautiful person inside and out. He not only sings like an angel, he is an angel.
I could listen to him sing for days, heck, I could listen to him talk for days. lol
He actually saved my life.
As for Elton John, he is a genious. I have always loved his music and he is one heck of an entertainer.
Nice coincidence, Debbie. I am a fan of Ace Young too. Thanks for your comment.
