For example, Slater Nalley covered John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery,” which Megan Danielle had previously performed during Season 21. As another example, country fan-favorite John Foster performed “I Told You So,” which Randy Travis sang with Carrie Underwood during a past season of Idol.

The night prior (Sunday, April 27), Underwood herself brought back an iconic Idol moment by covering Heart’s “Alone.” She previously performed the song during a standout moment on her season of American Idol in 2005.
