Iam Tongi, Moves Judges to Tears with Rendition of Louis Armstrong’s “What A Wonderful World”
Iam Tongi, a 19-year-old singer from Hawaii, stunned the judges and the audience with his rendition of Louis Armstrong’s classic “What A Wonderful World” on American Idol 2023. The performance was part of the Top 10 song contest, where the contestants had to choose a song that represents their personal story.
Tongi, who was born with a rare condition that affects his eyesight and hearing, said he chose the song because it reminds him of his gratitude for life and his love for his family. He also said he wanted to share a message of hope and positivity with the world.
The young singer delivered a heartfelt and soulful performance that earned him a standing ovation from the judges and the audience. He sang with a smooth and soothing voice that matched the gentle melody of the song. He also added some personal touches to the lyrics, such as changing “I see skies of blue” to “I see skies of green” to reflect his Hawaiian roots.
The judges were impressed and moved by Tongi’s performance. Lione
