Idol Chatter & Voice Views

In fact, her cover of Jewel’s “You Were Meant for Me” was the only song to crack the iTunes Top 200 singles chart as of 8 a.m. Tuesday.

The song was sitting at number 162 on the overall singles chart and number 35 on iTunes county singles chart.

Lauren turned three chairs with her performance, then opted to join Team Blake Shelton, explaining that her “heart and soul is in country music.”

As of 8 a.m., six of the eight songs from Monday’s show were charting. Below, I’ll list where they were on genre charts as of 8 a.m.

Keep in mind that it’s difficult to compare the song rankings between genre charts. The pop and country charts, for instance, are usually tougher to scale than the rock and R&B/soul chart.

That said, Stephanie Rice has to be thrilled with the reaction to her cover of Kelly Clarkson’s “Piece by Piece.”

First, it has already cracked the Top 10 on the rock singles chart.

Second, it drew praise from Kelly. You’ll recall her emotional performance of the song on American Idol.

Long estranged from her dad, Kelly clearly appreciated the song choice by Stephanie, who became estranged from her parents after telling them she was gay.

Tweeted Kelly: “Can’t. Stop. Crying. ? Her vulnerability and her story ….just wow. Steph, I hope ur parents open their hearts 2 the beautiful person u r!”
