Last night on American Idol, one of the Top 6 contestants, Angie Miller, chose a Kari Jobe song to perform as her "Song I wish I had written" selection. Miller's performance of "Love Came Down" from Jobe's 2012 release Where I Find You resulted in a standing ovation from the crowd and all four judges. Her performance evoked responses from
Keith Urban and
Mariah Carey, and garnered a
heartfelt response from Jobe as well.
"I have watched American Idol for 12 years, and it was so much fun
to have 'Love Came Down' from my album, Where I Find You on there this
week," shared Jobe after watching the performance. "I met Angie a year
ago and was blown away by her talent and love for Jesus! Excited for
her!"
Miller also shared on Twitter last night to Jobe, "I watched
you perform 'Love Came Down' quite some time ago and fell in love with
it. Thank you for inspiring me so much! Love you!"
Following Miller's performance last night, Jobe's song quickly climbed to the top of the iTunes Christian & Gospel singles chart, and the album is currently at No. 6 on the iTunes Christian album chart.
Wednesday night, Top 6 American Idol contestant Angie Miller sang
chart-topping CCM artist Kari Jobe's song "Love Came Down" and
received a standing ovation from both the crowd and the judges.
