American Idol Season 12 Judge Keith Urban Performs “Little Bit Of Everything” In Finale

Keith Urban was true to form at the recently concluded American Idol Season 12 Finale. The celebrity judge and country singer performs his current single “Little Bit of Everything.” Keith Urban showed the contestants how it’s done, according to the blog Taste of Country, in the big leagues. The website described the performance as polished, tight and energetic.

“Little Bit of Everything” is a marriage of country-tinged instrumentation with a very radio-friendly pop hook, which results in a compelling groove that seemed like a ready-made summertime hit, said Taste of Country.

Keith Urban performed with his trademark low-key-but-upbeat demeanor, delivering a strong vocal and contributing a guitar solo that probably could have only come from the singer among the entire crop of current Nashville stars. He did it, however, with such cool and easy confidence that he made the performance look effortless on the American Idol stage Thursday night.

The country superstar was recently interviewed by People magazine where he shared his sincere interest to come back as a judge on the show. People asked Keith Urban at the big showdown Wednesday night between Kree Harrison and Candice Glover if he would like to be a judge on season 13. He said, “I would. I mean, I literally enjoy coming to work every day, and that's a rarity."

“I joined an ensemble like this is the same way I joined a band,” said Urban, 45, who was telling reporters sitting alongside Jackson and the dueling divas of the show, Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey. Keith Urban said that "I like being in a team and I felt that immediately, with [host Ryan Seacrest] and Randy, particularly."

Urban’s first season on Idol was marked with the backstage drama of declining ratings and constant media frenzy on the continuing feud of Minaj and Carey, especially during the audition portion of the show. The country singer understands though that being on the show means that not only would he be judging, but he would be judged himself.

Urban said that it seems everybody is judging, "Everyone at home is judging us, judging them, judging everybody."

There’s no news yet by American Idol producers if Keith Urban will be invited back in the show.
