12. Sundance Head, ''Stormy Monday''/Chris Sligh, ''Kiss From a Rose'' (season 6)
Sundance and Chris made similar first impressions in American Idol season 6: They were burly, affable, and controversially groomed (hedgehog goatee and Sideshow Bob curls, respectively). But by the time each man was done, it was his voice that mattered most. Sundance's soulful ''Stormy Monday'' had fans predicting he'd crack the top 12 easily (alas, he got booted in the final week of semifinals), while eventual tenth-place finisher Chris boasted that his lovely ''Kiss From a Rose'' had Paula crumbling in his ''chubby little hands.''
