May 30, 2009 – Michael Slezak of Entertainment Weekly interviews Danny Gokey in a five part interview. Danny has been frequently criticized throughout the season, but after watching the interview, I found out many things I did not know until this interview. Danny actually was at a disadvantage. Coming from a gospel background, Danny admitted that most of the songs he sang he did not know and he had to learn them from scratch.

Unlike many of the idol contestants, who were familiar with the songs that they chose, Danny had to learn the words and music. Danny also discusses the scream heard round the world and admits that he had no idea at the time how bad it really was. Danny also speaks of his wife’s untimely death and how he tried to not let that be the center piece of his story. I admire Danny Gokey for staying true to his values and his strong Christian faith. No one can deny that Danny Gokey’s gritty gospel voice has the ability to move people. With songs like “Come Rain or Come Shine” and Joe Cocker’s “You Are So Beautiful”, Danny proves that he is not only an amazing singer, but he is a true inspiration.
