Jennifer Lopez advised him to stay grounded and continue to use his amazing instincts. Never doubt. Randy Jackson was impressed with Scotty’s performance, saying he was in the zone and already ready to record an album. Of course, Steven Tyler loves everything about his voice. Seriously, Steven? What about becoming a real Idol judge for once?

Scotty knows exactly who he is and who he wants to be in the future. Scotty picked this song because it had the world “country” in the title and it turned out to be a great song for him. He sang the cheesy grandma line even against the producers’ advice. And it was nice… probably earned him a few more votes too!
