On American Idol, Michael J. Woodard gave a dominating rendition of “Believe In Yourself” from “The Wiz” for his Top 10 performance in front of a live audience and Judges Luke Bryan, Katy Perry and Lionel Richie. Woodard did not stop with his eclectic song choices on Sunday night, when he performed David Guetta featuring Sia’s “Titanium,” but he did keep his tendency to move around in-check to match the song’s message.
