American Idol Contestant Delivers Jaw-Dropping Performance of Stevie Wonder's 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered'

One young woman turned in a fantastic and jaw-dropping rendition of one of Steve Wonder’s most beloved hits, “Signed, Sealed, Delivered,” on American Idol. 

Shows like The Voice, America’s Got Talent and American Idol give people who may have been overlooked for whatever reason an opportunity, a chance to shine. There are talented people everywhere. God has blessed everyone with different skills, abilities and gifts. Sometimes working up the courage and confidence to display those gifts can take time, too.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one young woman, Micaela McCall, has been trying to make a career in entertainment. However, for whatever reason, the young woman who has the voice of an angel, has not been recognized by the right people or person yet. 

Instead, as she tells the judges, she has been busking - performing on the street - hoping to get noticed by the right person. Following her lovely performance on American Idol, something tells me she will not have any problem being recognized for her immense talent any longer.

She performed a version of Stevie Wonder’s “Signed, Sealed, Delivered” that you’ve likely never heard. It’s a beautiful slowed-down and piano-bar version of the upbeat and energetic song. 

Micaela’s voice is stunning, one that could be listened to repeatedly. Moments after belting out the lyrics to the beloved tune, she had won over Katy Perry, Luke Bryan and Lionel Richie. They gave her a well-deserved standing ovation.

Luke could not understand why Micaela hadn’t already been discovered and not wowing audiences with her vocal talent.

“And I don’t know why you haven’t already had a massive amount of success,” Luke said. “But you’re here, you’re with us now, and I could hear you sing the rest of the afternoon.”

Sometimes all we need is a chance and an opportunity to make those dreams a reality.
