Noah Thompson, the country singer who won American Idol season 20, shared a new original song titled, «On the Outside.» Noah has an incredible country singing voice, but the 20-year-old construction worker from Louisa, Kentucky, often speaks about how he is not really a songwriter. Many of his fellow American Idol finalists such as Fritz Hager, Leah Marlene, and HunterGirl performed their original music on the show, but Noah decided to sing covers, which he did perfectly. From his first audition song of «Giving You Up» by Kameron Marlowe to his performance of Bruce Springsteen's «I'm on Fire» on finale night, Noah showed growth as an artist. He impressed everyone, especially since he had no prior experience with performing.
When the time came for the American Idol Top 7 finalists to choose singles to record, Noah selected «One Day Tonight.» The song is about a man who hopes to make his girlfriend's dreams about their future come true, including a wedding, a house, children, and a dog. The song reached number one on the music charts. Although Leah Marlene and HunterGirl released their original songs, «Flowers» and «Red Bird,» Noah did not choose to record one of his own songs. He felt that his strength was singing, and that he would leave the songwriting to others.
