It’s not secret that Theo Tams is one of my favorite competitors in this year’s Canadian Idol competition. Yet while I loved his piano man routine, he was in danger of becoming a little predictable.

So this week I was thrilled to see Theo step out from the mic with his take on Joss Stone’s “You Had Me.”

He brought a new masculinity to this chick anthem that reminded me a little of an early George Michael. Before we realized he wasn’t so masculine after all.

Theo’s ballads captivated me, but with this gutsy performance he showed that he has what it takes to win this competition.
