That is the hardest song to sing and it has sounded different but like a masterpiece each time I hear him do it. This album is going to be a real treat for me!

I don't always care for that but Danny found a good balance between giving it some different touches, and keeping true to the spirit and purpose of the song.</blockquote> I felt the same way. I don't normally like it when the anthem is changed up, but I actually loved this. It wasn't an over the top kind of change, he just made it very soulful. For most performers, I get a little nervous when they sing the anthem, but I really don't get nervous for Danny. It seems fairly easy for him. Danny really has an AWESOME voice....very rich and powerful. Thanks PJG and Steph6449…I’ll check over there.

At the other site you've been visiting recently, one of the people is already monitoring to see when they become available. I heard parts of the show tonight, Kara's song seemed a pretty good fit for Danny and another more upbeat number. I'll be interested how things go in Raleigh, when Danny possibly could be bringing a full band doing a non-acoustic performance for the first time? The acoustic sets are nice, but not completely representative of what some of these songs can be like. Danny changed up the anthem quite a lot in last night's performance. I don't always care for that but Danny found a good balance between giving it some different touches, and keeping true to the spirit and purpose of the song. He's done a great job at each of the three performances of the anthem, and I understand he may have at least one more at a pro sports venue late this month. I saw quite a few people who were tweeting others to check out video of Danny's version of the NA last night--funny though as there were a lot more Celtics fans following it, than Bobcats fans. I don't watch the Bobcats, but their poor fans seemed a little demoralized to get too excited for this game. Lol. Well, I guess they were right if that was the case as Celtics did win by a good margin. :) aek, the station probably will put up the performances Danny did online.

Keep checking 95 KAT or Ihrt. It was a very interesting Kara DiGuardia song; def. not No Boundaries -like! Sounded like it will be very bluesy; Danny even said "just wait until the full band is up kickin it on stage." aek, I hope that the station will post the performance: they seem to have other performances posted.

PJG, do you know where I can hear "I Still Believe," if anywhere? I have really been impressed with the songs that Danny has on his album thus far. I did read that his bus broke down today after he sang at a private gig. He and the band had to rent cars today. Hope he gets that fixed soon. I plan on going to see Danny in Raleigh on Friday night barring any unforseen circumstances. Can't wait! Aww, I missed a new song? PJG, do you know where I can hear “I Still Believe,” if anywhere?

He sang 5 songs to a small audience. One was a new song written by Kara DiGuardio; "I Still Believe". It was an acoustic show, but I think it sounds like it will be very bluesy and a kick a** song with his full band. He also sang Tiny Life again by Jeffrey Steele, and now that he isn't sick anymore, it really sounded beautiful. Really getting excited for this album!

I have a feeling that Danny is going to do great in the country music genre and have a number of hits with the singles in his album. IMO he has the best voice for season 8.

For those who follow his schedule, Danny is not limited to singing in arenas, and yes, someone like Mark Bright is not going to take a chance with someone he didn't think could do well. I have heard supposed artists sing the anthem and done poorly, IMO, compared to some of these "karaoke" singers that come off this show called "American Idol." Many of our Idols do very well with it, including Phil Stacey, who has sung it many a time as part of his Navy and reservist careers. He, too, has sung it at many an arena, including in Jacksonville and at the Tennessee Titans' stadiums, to name a few. I cannot explain, either, why Elliott and Melinda, who btw are also 3rd-place finishers, have not gotten bigger deals; but I, too, like their voices. I'm sure that Danny will get the training and encouragement as he pursues his career. Phil got some encouragement from Tim McGraw before he started out; so I am sure that others in country music will encourage Danny, too. Keep going, Danny, and can't wait for that video!

He's been very busy. He will be singing at an NFL game after Christmas weekend also. I think he did a great job singing this song a capella and his big voice sure filled the arena. Obviously none of the Idols are perfect in their delivery 100% of the time; but his is one of few who is pretty darn close. IMO, he has delivered the NA better than any Idol I've heard; all 3 times so far. He has the best voice of S8 and deserved the great record contract with a major recording label. Not only that, I don't think an A-list producer like Mark Bright would take on someone who didn't show huge potential. I'm really happy with how his label has been treating him; trying to distance him from AI and slowly, quietly introducing him to country fans.
