    Congratulations to all who participated in 2011, especially the finalists. Fantastic lineup this year! Marc absolutely blew me away with his performance of “You raise me up” as his opening number. Another fantastic singer from Lebanon! (Yalla!!) Great voice, great control. The US really shone this year too: Cassandra has wonderful stage presence and a very strong voice. Well deserved wins this year. Looking forward to the next one.
