Iam Tongi, an 18-year-old from Kahuku, Hawaii, sang a passionate rendition of Sam Cook’s 1962 song “Bring It On Home To Me,” which pleased all three American Idol judges, who stood up in appreciation.

The audience joined in by screaming his name, and Luke Bryan showed his admiration, stating it was impossible not to love him.
