American Idol
One of our guilty pleasures is American Idol. While the format of the show doesn't necessarily
identify the best performer, it
certainly showcases some great performances. We present some of our favorites here.
Judd Harris and Billy Joel sing Baby Grand at NYU
What if Billy Joel came to your college... and you had the nerve to ask if you could sing a duet with him...
and he said yes... and then you sang as well or better than anyone he ever sang with...
It happened in 1998 - and this is the recording of that event.
Later, Judd Harris was a finalist during the fourth season of American Idol. This is one of our favorite videos
available anywhere online. You can rate, favorite or comment on the video by clicking on it:
