James Durbin Idol Rocker

By James Marshall


James Durbin rocketing his way to celebrity status, performing worldwide to a huge TV audience week after week and winning the hearts of millions. This has allowed James to collaborate with some of the most famous names in the recording industry.

A week ago on the show James sang Judas Priest's You Got Another Thing Comin'. Steven Tyler said "James, that was (bleep) crazy good! and I think all America agrees with the word I used."

"I love the way you perform," She continued to say "Every move you make comes from something inside. That's what everybody needs to do when they're up there." Said Jenifer Lopez. "This is, right here, how you do it." Is how Randy Jackson summed it up.

The final minutes came down to James Durbin and Stefano Langone for the last spot in the top 10. Stefano was sent packing and James took the final spot in the top 10. Top 10 include: Scotty McCreery, Paul McDonald, Jacob Lusk, James Durbin, Casey Abrams. Women: Thia Megia, Pia Toscano, Lauren Alaina, Karen Rodriguez, Haley Reinhart

This is a wonderful achievement for James and his family. They have cross many bridges to beat the odds. Our most loved aspect of the story is that just a few months ago, James was just another struggling musician fighting for a break, going from job to job, with an young son and the battle of having not one but two high-stigma neurological conditions. Since the show his life has forever been changed and the world is quickly learning the name James Durbin

James had been talking about performing on the show for many years, as far back as his mid-teens when the effects of Tourette's and Asperger's syndrome made it difficult for him to even have a talk and communicate. In fact, he said, he auditioned for ''Idol" two years ago and was not selected, which turned out to be a blessing.
