The first States-side “The X-Factor” extravaganza aired September 21, 2011. Afterwards, promotionsforLIFE.com chose three performers to highlight, two of which, months later, remain in the Top 5 — Rachel Crow and Chris Rene. (All three promotionsforLIFE.com picks made it to the Top 10.) And while it is no secret that Chris Rene is not the most talented vocalist on the show — he remains America’s favorite underdog.
Tonight, Chris Rene stole the show with an original song, Where Do We Go From Here.
For those who do not know, Chris went to rehab earlier this year to face and conquer addictions. Musically, based on what we have seen on X-Factor, Chris’ preferred genre seems to be rap and hip-hop.
Yet tonight, with a $5-million dollar final prize on the line (a recording contract), Chris surprised us all and revealed an original song on acoustic guitar, stripped of production, flash and dance.
Chris simply sat on a chair and strummed his heart for all of the world to see.
When the song ended, the roof came down with applause. Simon Cowell said performing an original at this point of the intense competition was either a stupid thing to do or a stroke of genius. Simon concluded that it was, “a stroke of genius!”
In the lyric, Chris asks the question: Where Do We Go From Here with the lyrical reply, Only God Knows.
Chris, no matter how far you go in this competition, whether to the top or exiting moments before, with God’s help, you are going to continue to move forward and upward.
As viewers, we love you Chris and appreciate your vulnerability. You are an inspiration to millions, Chris, and we wish you the best of success with your journey of sobriety and your journey with LIFE!
Keep taking it one step at a time, Chris, and don’t let the sudden success get to your head. Just know that you have our votes and more importantly, our prayers. All of God’s best to you and yours!
Sincerely, Steven Joseph, Editor – promotionsforLIFE.com.
Post Script: To Simon Cowell and the producers, thank you for bringing the show back to the more centered, family-friendly programming we were expecting from this prime-time mega-hit wonder. All of the best to you and yours as well. Steven Joseph
