Home by Phillip Phillips Lyrics


Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Settle down, it’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Settle down, it’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Jessica Sanchez 'Change Nothing' Lyrics (Studio Version)

Posted on May 23, 2012 | 10:41 PM

Jessica Sanchez' coronation song, Change Nothing may not be good at first hear but it grows on you as you listen to it more than once. The studio version will prove to you that this is indeed a winning song that will get more airplay.

Jessica Sanchez Change Nothing Lyrics (Studio Version) Coronation Song

Change Nothing is an original song especially made for Jessica Sanchez (and will be her debut single if she wins American Idol). Written by Jaden Michaels, Joleen Belle and Harry Sommerdahl, Change Nothing has that meaningful lyrics which build up to "they don't know the hell we've been through cause when you hold me like you do. That's when I wanna change nothing."

Here is the studio version (lyrics video) of Jessica Sanchez' coronation song, Change Nothing (written lyrics below):




Change Nothing by Jessica Sanchez lyrics

Everyday I’m waking up to déjà vu
Someone it’s always telling me
Not to stick with you
Could it be the nights we spent to fixing us
I never thought that we were really
That messed up

Should have shut my mouth and kept it all to myself
Cause now they've got me feeling I should be with somebody else

They say we don't fit together
I could do better
There's always something
They don't know the hell we've been through
Cause when you hold me like you do
That's when I wanna change nothing


There were times when we would kiss with bitter lips
It don't matter when the good ones taste like this

Maybe we were broken more than once or twice
What we got bad or not I'm not gonna compromise

I should have never let that words get under my skin
Cause all i ever wanted was to find a way through this

They say we don't fit together
I could do better
There's always something
They don't know the hell we've been through
Cause when you hold me like you do
That's when I wanna change nothing
That's when I wanna change nothing

Should have shut my mouth and kept it all to myself

No 
No 
Ooooh 
Yeah

They say we don't fit together
I could do better
There's always something
They don't know the hell we've been through
Cause when you hold me like you do
That's when I wanna change nothing

That's when I wanna change nothing
That's when I wanna change nothing
That's when I wanna change nothing
Oh that's when I wanna change nothing

American Idol 2012 Finale Performance Night Videos and Winner Prediction

American Idol Season 11 Top 2 Finale performance night on May 22 (May 23 in Manila) was indeed a neck-to-neck battle between Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips. The American Idol 2012 Top 2  performed three songs each - one of Idol creator Simon fuller's choice, one of the Idol hopeful's favorite performance of the season and their coronation song, the one that will be released as their new single after winning American Idol.

Phillip Phillips versus Jessica Sanchez - Who will Win American Idol 2012?
Jessica Sanchez versus Phillip Phillips: and the American Idol Season 11 winner is...
The American Idol 2012 Finale performance night opened with Jessica Sanchez' performance of Whitney Houston's I Have Nothing which was chosen by Simon Fuller for Jessica. Simon Fuller had chosen Ben E. King's Stand by Me for Phillip Phillips.

The Top 2 then performed their personal favorites of the season and Jessica tackled The Prayer, the song which got her to Top 24. Phillip rekindled his Movin' Out (Anthony's Song) moment which was well praised during the Top 10 Billy Joel's night.

For their coronation song,  Jessica Sanchez was made to sing Change Nothing, an original song that will be released as her single if ever she won while Phillip Phillips rendered Home, another original for him.

Watch the American Idol Top 2 Finale performances below (Click on the performance title):

Jessica Sanchez
Phillip Phillips
Who will win the Season 11 of American Idol?

After their performances tonight and based on the judges' comments and the reaction of the crowd, we predict that Phillip Phillips will be hailed as the 11th American Idol come tomorrow's finale results night. Phillip Phillips got a standing ovation from the judges for his last performance (Home) and Randy Jackson claimed that it was the best of the night.

Although Jessica Sanchez did well on her performances, the judges' gave a restrained nod for her. The producers assigned her not quite a carry-on song unlike Phillip who was given the better songs so it's obvious who they wanted to emerge as this seasons winner.

Moreover, the fact that Phillip Phillips' did not even landed on the bottom group (which Jessica did, even faced elimination if not for the judges' save) reflects that he has a large voting fanbase. He can also have the sympathy votes, what with him continuing to fight even with kidney problems and a scheduled operation. There were also conspiracy theories (e.g. the Kristy Lee Cook curse) pointing to Phillip's win, another ride for the WGWG bandwagon.

However, the fact that Jessica Sanchez entered the Finale as the underdog might cause a great revolution for fans to vote for her. We knew how Filipinos unite for a goal and her Mexican and American fans will surely not let her down.

Though it's Phillip who we predict will be crowned on May 23rd's Idol finale results night, our hopes are still intact for Jessica Sanchez. But as our girl said, win or lose, it's a win-win situation for her and we believe that. After all, it's not always the winner that become successful post Idol. With Jessica's talent, she will definitely shine, crowned or not.

Who do you think will win? Drop your thoughts in the comments section below.

American Idol 2012 Top 2: Jessica versus Phillip in the Finale!

Posted on May 18, 2012 | 9:03 AM

At last we now have our American Idol Season 11 Top 2! It's Phillip versus Jessica in the finale of American Idol 2012 (Season 11).

Brace yourselves as Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips battle it out with great performances for the finale on Tuesday, May 22nd and the crowning of the 11th American Idol on Wednesday, May 23rd.

American Idol 2012 Top 2 - Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips
American Idol Season 11 Top 2, Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips will battle it out for the Idol Finale, May 22 and 23
Joshua Ledet was eliminated May 17 at the American Idol 2012 Top 3 Results Show, depriving him the chance for a neck-to-neck singing battle at the the Nokia Live Theatre next week and eventually become the next American Idol.


Phillip Phillips who hails from Leesburg, Georgia has been a consistent vote-getter with a clean credentials if we are talking of the bottom 3 spot. Meanwhile, Jessica Sanchez from Chula Vista, California has landed once in the bottom 3 (and the lowest vote-getter that night) and could have been eliminated if not for the precious judges' save. 

Both are talented singers and well-loved by fans so it will be difficult to predict between the 2 who will emerge as winner come finale time. The Top 2, Jessica and Phillip both have charisma so it will not only be a battle of voices, a battle of choices but also a battle of voting fans. The one with the most number of fans voting for their favorite Top 2 idol will win.

Who do you think will go for gold and clinch that most-coveted American Idol crown? We are so excited here to see another girl winner in the said competition but thinking of all the odds, a "white guy with a guitar" (WGWG) might again win this whole thing.

Who are you rooting for? Is it Phillip or Jessica? Drop you comments below.

Don't forget to watch the American Idol 2012 Top 2 at the finale next week, May 22 and 23 as another season of American Idol ends and a new Idol is crowned.

American Idol 2012 Top 3 Results Night: Joshua Ledet Eliminated!

Joshua Ledet got the boot on American Idol 2012 Top 3 Results Show (Elimination Night) May 17 (May 18 in Manila). 

Joshua joined the ranks of Haley Reinhart, Syesha Mercado, Elliot Yamin, Melinda Doolittle, Jasmine Trias and other Idol Top 3 finalist who missed out the opportunity to be a member of American Idol Top 2 and the chance to compete in the finale.

The American Idol Season 11 Top 2 spots were snatched by Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, who will battle it all out for next week's finale (May 22 performance and May 23 results show).

Before Joshua made his final vow on the American Idol stage, Idol alumnus and Season 8 runner-up Adam Lambert performed his new song, Never Close Our Eyes (from his sophomore album "Trespassing" which dropped May 15) while Lisa Marie Presley sang You Ain’t Seen Nothin’ Yet, her latest single from her new album “Storm & Grace.” 

Joshua Ledet is one of the favorites to make it in the finale and his performances last night earned rave reviews from the judges, who again gave Joshua a standing ovation for his performance of Etta James' classic, I'd Rather Go Blind which was picked for him by Randy Jackson. He also tackled John Lennon's Imagine and Mary J. Blige's No More Drama to a great extent.


Watch the announcement of the American Idol 2012 Top 2 below:



Now that we have our American Idol 2012 Top 2 in the person of Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips, it's time to set our minds for the finale on May 22nd and 23rd.

Who will be crowned as the 11th American Idol winner? Well, it's up to America on who they want to win. I'm just hoping that whoever wins this thing, all the eliminated talented contestants will be given their own spots in the music industry.

(Honestly, been hoping for a girl to win this season and now keeping my fingers crossed for Jessica's victory.)

American Idol 2012 Top 3 Performance Videos and Top 2 Prediction

Posted on May 17, 2012 | 12:01 PM

American Idol Season 11 Top 3 performance night on May 16 (May 17 in Manila) saw a great battle of choices for the American Idol 2012 Top 3. The Top 3 idol hopefuls performed three songs each - one of their personal choice, one of the judges' choice and one of Jimmy Iovine's choice.

American Idol 2012 Top 3 - Phillip Phillips, Jessica Sanchez and Joshua Ledet
The American Idol Top 3 first sang what the judges' have chosen for them. Judge Randy Jackson picked I'd Rather Go Blind by Etta James for Joshua Ledet while Jennifer Lopez chose Mariah Carey's My All for Jessica Sanchez. Judge Steven Tyler gave Phillip Phillips Madcon's Beggin' to sing.

Next in line were the idol hopefuls' personal song choice. Joshua Ledet performed Imagine, a big John Lennon hit while Jessica Sanchez tackled Aerosmith's I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing. Phillip Phillips had chosen Disease by Matchbox 20.

For Idol mentor Jimmy Iovine's choice, the songs were No More Drama (Mary J. Blige) for Joshua, I'll Be There (Jackson 5) for Jessica and We've Got Tonight (Bob Seger) for Phillip.

Watch the American Idol Top 3 performances by clicking on the respective names of the idol hopefuls below.

Judges' Choice
Idol Hopeful's Choice
Jimmy Iovine's Choice
Who will go home tomorrow night and who will consist the American Idol 2012 Top 2 to battle it out for the finale next week?

We predict that Phillip Phillips will surely be there in the finale. The guy is the only one that hasn't gone to Ryan Seacrest stools and that says a lot about Phillip's large voting fanbase. Besides, he certainly had the pimp spot from last week until this week's performance.

Who will join Phillip in the Top 2 for the finale? We predict it will be Joshua Ledet. The soul singer had been consistent with great performances and the judges' standing  ovations matter a lot. His fanbase is getting larger and they will probably not let Joshua down.

Personally, I wanted a Phillip-Jessica finale but based on what happened tonight and the judges' comments, Jessica might be thrown out of the bus. The only girl left could have been already voted out if not for the judges save and based on history, no saved contestant ever reach the finale (although Jessica made history for being the saved contestant that had gone the farthest in the competition).

My hopes are still intact for Jessica and who knows, with the voting power of her Filipino, Mexican and American fans, she might grab that other spot in the finale and eventually win this whole thing (my fingers crossed).

Jessica can always obliterate the trend and probably become the first female American Idol after a long female drought in the competition. Last female Idol winner was Jordin Sparks way back in 2007 (Season 6). This will hold true if the producers and the voting audience won't allow another male domination.
