Week #1 =)

[Chris Daughtry]

One Wish
Whitney Houston

(Oooh oooh oooh oooh)
If there were no presents
Waiting on Santa’s sleigh
What would I wish for Christmas
And if Frosty the Snowman
Were melting away
I would pray for hope and unity
On Christmas day

If I had one wish for Christmas
There would be joy
And peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
We would all come together as one

If Rudolph and his reindeer
Ran into delays
I’d still hope for joy this season
And if somehow Santa got lost on his way
I would try to find a way to smile
Smile on Christmas day

If I had one wish for Christmas
There would be joy
And peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
We would all come together as one

You know it ain’t about
All those material things (no no)
What you’ve gotta think about
Is the love Christmas brings (yeah)

If I had one wish for Christmas
There would be joy
And peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
We would all come together as one

If I had one wish for Christmas
There would be joy
And peace here on earth
If I had one wish for Christmas this year
We would all come together as one



What do you think is the relevance of your song to the situation of our world right now?
My song is about the meaning of Christmas. I think this song it's really reveleant to the world in which we live now because for us Christmas is about the gifts. Whitney let's us know that Christmas isn't about the gifts or material things that it's about coming together as a family and been together and happy. Which at this point in life isn't happening since all most people care about is gifts, material things, and money. One wish is a touching song that makes you reflect on the route your life is taking.

[Michael Bublé]

OK.

Where to begin?

This song did not fit you at all.This is not what I see you, Chris Daughtry, singing.I understand that it's Whitney Houston week but you still could have chosen a much better song than this.

On top of that, it's not Christmas time.Actually, I'm pretty sure spring and summer are approaching.So, I don't know, I wasn't feeling this.Sorry.

[Judge Kara DioGuardi]

I didn't like the song choice at all. The vocals were okay, but this song didn't fit you. Poor decision this round, Chris.

[Randy Jackson]

Daughtry dawg? What's up? For me, I feel it was a poor song choice. I don't understand the reasoning behind choosing a Christmas song to sing, especially since Spring is just starting. Worst song choice this round, so far.

[Simon Cowell]

This was ok for me, you showed us that you can sing... decently. I will leave it at that.

[Chris Daughtry]

Just wanna clarify I know it's not Christmas I chose it becuase of it's meaning of what society is becoming now days.

[Paula Abdul]

I think you have great energy on stage!
