Elliott Yamin Open Arms Video

January 21, 2007 | Leave a Comment

I couldn’t find the first audition video from Elliot Yamin, but I did find Journey’s Open Arms video that Elliot sang on American Idol on May 16th, the week before he was unfortunately voted off.

This was the song that Elliot absolutely nailed and I thought he had a serious chance of winning after he sang Open Arms. Randy Jackson especially like it because he used to be the bass player for Journey. With only the three contestants left between Katharine McPhee, Taylor Hicks and Elliot, I thought it would be an Elliot and Taylor final. Not to be. However, Elliott fans are eagerly awaiting his upcoming album release sometime in January or early February. It should do very well.

Enjoy the video.
