Fantasia – "Summertime"
Fantasia Barrino will always be remembered for her rendition of "Summertime" and for giving one of the first truly great performances in the show's history.

Didi Benami – "Terrified"
While not the most powerful voice of the bunch, Didi sang a song by one of her season's judges, Kara DioGuardi, and gave one of the most refreshing and organic performances the show has seen.

Chris Daughtry – "Hemmorhage"
Chris Daughtry deserved to go much further than he did in the competition but proved that you don't have to win American Idol to be successful after the show.

Jennifer Hudson – "Circle of Life"
Gone far too soon, but look who had the last laugh, am I right, Jennifer? Probably the biggest voice to come out of the show, we are blessed Idol gave us this gift.
